Clenched fists creaked, and the Seventh Prince's chest was ablaze with anger. He wanted to get angry, but his chest hurt.
Sheng'er, did you let this woman threaten your father so much?
My plan is being implemented, and it will take a few days to succeed. At that time, I will give you the title you want, why can't you wait for me a little longer?
Taking a deep breath and forcing himself to calm down, the Seventh Prince, who was still furious just now, became the personable, gentle and elegant in the past at the speed visible to Ling Muer's naked eyes.
"As for Sheng'er, it's indeed my prince's fault. I promise you that I will go to Yushengju to see her after I leave your place. Don't worry, I will definitely comfort her."
The Seventh Prince said, with an expression on his brows that he would only have when he treats a woman he loves in his heart, "To be honest, as long as you help me succeed and let me get that seat, Sheng'er will naturally not have to suffer such grievances. You know , I have always wanted to give her a title, isn't this also your wish?"
Ling Muer didn't quite believe his words, "Is what you said true?"
"Sheng'er is not just admiration for me. Her talent, understanding, and gentleness are all unique to me in the world. Although I have done things that I have done wrong to her, after all, only in this way can I be loved." Give her a title in an upright way. So Ling Muer, for your sister Shenger, do you think you should hear why I came to you today?"
People are like springs, the tighter they are pressed, the easier it is to break, and it would be even worse if both sides were hurt by then.
Ling Muer sat opposite him dignifiedly, "If I'm not mistaken, the Seventh Prince came here for my brother?"
"That's right, Ling Zixuan is the number one scholar in high school, knowledgeable and talented, I appreciate it, but it's a pity that he was assigned to the Sixth Brother's camp. You know, Father intends to test us, and Sixth Brother and I will do our best in this matter. We You can't choose, but Ling Zixuan can."
The seventh prince looked into her eyes seriously, "This prince has gone to Ling Zixuan, but he has sternly rejected him. I know that Ling Zixuan dare not offend anyone now, but you are his favorite sister, so he will definitely listen to your words. "
That's why he reported to her clinic every day for seven consecutive days, saying that he was sick when he was not sick, and he didn't explain his reason for coming. One is to let her persuade Ling Zixuan, and the other is to let those interested know that Ling Muer is his Seventh Prince.
"Since my brother refuses, he has his own plans. I'm afraid I can't help the Seventh Prince in this matter."
Since it was her brother's decision, Ling Muer didn't want to embarrass him. Besides, Ling Zixuan is now the county matriarch, with the county prince's mansion behind him and Ningguo Marquis Fu as two backers, presumably the Seventh Prince will not make things difficult.
"How do you know you can't help if you don't try?" He asked back, "Or, did you plan to help Sixth Brother?"
Ling Muer shook her head hurriedly, "Why should the seventh prince be so aggressive? If brother Zhou hadn't introduced me to see you, Mu'er, a poor man, would not have been lucky enough to meet such a noble person as the seventh prince. Our Ling family are just ordinary people, and we just want Doing a career in peace in the capital, and don't want to get involved in the disputes of the imperial court, brother, he also thinks so."
Her eyes were serious, "To tell you the truth, the seventh prince, my brother wants to obtain fame. Besides wanting to honor the ancestors, he just wants to prove his ability. Now that he has done it, he will not cause trouble for himself. If he is The prince must think so too, right?"
Being an intermediary, no one can offend anyone. The Seventh Prince would think the same way if he had no intention of fighting for the throne, but he must get that seat.
"I heard that before Ling Zixuan came to the capital, he didn't know a single word. In just two years, he was the number one scholar in high school. Wouldn't it be a pity if he didn't serve his country with such a talent? Ling Muer, I know you're thinking for his sake." Keep the family safe, but even without me, the Sixth Prince will do everything possible to recruit talents."
The seventh prince vowed not to give up until he achieved his goal, "You must have heard about the sixth prince's reputation in the capital. Before I returned to Beijing, my father did not choose him, and after I returned to Beijing, he even let me participate with him." The invigilation of the imperial examination has a deep meaning, and the girl is smart enough to guess it. Instead of wasting time on Sixth Brother, it is better to make a decision early."
His eyes were firm, and his tone was even more decisive, "As long as Ling Zixuan follows me, I promise that I will never treat him badly. Not only will he be able to display his talents, but he will also be given countless status and honors."
After the Seventh Prince finished speaking, when he turned around to look at Ling Muer again, his eyes became gentle and warm as before, "If I were you, I would definitely tell what I said today and discuss it with him."
"What if I don't agree?" Ling Muer refused his request almost without time to think.
Although she only spent two years with Ling Zixuan, she knew her brother very well. If she persuaded him, his brother would definitely agree, but that would be to make him do something he didn't want to do.
She didn't want her brother to be in trouble, and she didn't want her brother to be caught in court disputes. Wouldn't it be nice to be a carefree county matriarch? Be sure to choose a side in exchange for glory, then once they make a decision, they will be killed the next day.
At that time, if it is Ling Zixuan, I am afraid that the entire Ling Mansion will suffer.
The eldest brother is protected by the county prince's mansion and Ningguohou's mansion, but what about his parents, grandmother and uncle, they are already old, how can they stand the toss?
"If Miss Ling disagrees, then the prince can only find another way."
Speaking, the Seventh Prince had already got up from the stone bench, Ling Mu'er thought he was going to leave, but he just looked down at her from a different angle.
"Zhou Qiyan has been looking for the real enemy who killed his father. I believe he must have told you about this matter. Then do you know that even if he finds it, his work is useless without evidence?"
Ling Mu'er was startled, and stood up abruptly. When she looked at the Seventh Prince again, she was not only disdainful but also angry, "Are you threatening me?"
"Miss Ling, why is she so angry?"
The Seventh Prince smiled slightly, "From Zhou Qiyan and Ling Zixuan, this is hardly a threat. If you don't want to meddle in other people's business, you can completely pretend that you didn't hear what you just said. It depends on your choice."
"You clearly know about my relationship with Zhou Qiyan."
It was only after Ling Mu'er finished speaking that she realized that the point was not here. She leaned forward and looked at the Seventh Prince, "You already knew who Zhou Qiyan's enemies were, and you had their evidence long ago, but you kept hiding it from him. Use him to continue using him for you? Despicable!"
"People don't kill heaven and earth for themselves. I never said when to avenge him. Everything is his own choice."
The Seventh Prince pretended to be innocent now, as if it wasn't his fault.
It was only then that Ling Mu'er realized why the emperor asked him to supervise the imperial examination. This person is dark and dark, and will do anything to achieve his goal.
If he were to fight against the sixth prince, he would indeed be a formidable opponent.
"You know that Zhou Qiyan is willing to be your slave for revenge, but you take advantage of his weakness to make him work for you. Are you not afraid that I will tell him this?" Ling Muer really felt worthless for Zhou Qiyan.
"My prince has always cherished talents. Whether it is literary or military, as long as they can be used by me, I will not treat them badly. Zhou Qiyan is by my side. I have never treated him badly. It's just that the evidence is going to be handed over to him later. Coincidentally, it just comes in handy now."
The Seventh Prince didn't feel guilty at all for being reprimanded by others, on the contrary he felt refreshed, "I admire Ling Zixuan's talent very much, his 'theory of heaven and earth' has touched my heart, and he has been able to sublimate himself to such a level in such a short period of time. Height, Ling Zixuan's potential is limitless! You believe me, he can only display his greater value if he is by my side, I think, you don't want your brother to be buried like this, do you?"
I have to admit that the Seventh Prince was right.
Even Zhu Qingfeng said that Ling Zixuan is a rare talent, this imperial examination is just a test, if possible, he should go higher and stand farther. Chollima was only known when he met Bole, what his brother lacked was a guide.
"Although Ling Zixuan is the number one scholar in high school, who doesn't say that he is relying on the county prince's mansion and Ning Guohou? You should know that the more people suppress him, the more they are those literati, and those people have black mouths. They are innocent because they have some knowledge, and what they say can easily be believed. Even if Ling Zixuan wants to prove his innocence, as long as he is still in the county palace, he will never be able to take off this hat."
The Seventh Prince took a deep breath, shook his sleeves, and when he looked at Ling Muer again, he had already walked to the exit of the courtyard, "I will give you time to think about it, and persuade Ling Zixuan well, unless there is someone better than me, otherwise I will be His final choice."
The figure had already left, and a voice that only Ling Mu'er could hear came from the deep inner energy, "Of course, don't make me wait too long, after all, if someone else has used something, I won't be interested."
Ling Muer was caught in a dilemma.
She never begged her brother to do anything for her, but she regarded Zhou Qiyan as her brother and friend. If she could avenge him and leave the Seventh Prince as soon as possible, and recover her status to live the life she wanted, she would be willing to beg her brother.
However, that would make my brother do what he didn't want to do.
She had inquired, and the Seventh Prince had approached his brother seven days ago, but his brother rejected him. My brother is a smart man, joining the camp of the seventh prince is betraying the sixth prince, after all, he is now under the command of the sixth prince. Everyone knows how a rebel will be treated.
I heard that the Sixth Prince will retaliate, so he will definitely try his best to deal with his brother. The Seventh Prince has such an attitude towards Zhou Qiyan, so how can he treat his brother better?
It is nothing more than treating them as pawns for personal benefit.
For Zhou Qiyan, if my brother made the right choice, he would have no worries in his life, but if he made the wrong choice...he would be dead in an instant.
Ling Muer took a deep breath, not wanting to get entangled in this matter any more, and planned to go out to relax and think about this issue, but Shang Zhi suddenly ran in.
"Girl, the little prince said he wanted to see you, but he insisted on barging in after I told you that you were not in the hospital, you..."
Almost as soon as the words fell, Su Ce rushed over and grabbed her hand, "Follow me."
