I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 114 Father and Son
When Qu Lingxu entered the palace, Leng Yuanxun also returned to Huaiyang Marquis Mansion. He was about to go back to his study to carefully plan how to deal with Murong Li next, when he saw a kind-hearted middle-aged man coming towards him, respectfully He cupped his hands and said, "My son is auspicious."

"Uncle Feng is free." Leng Yuanxun smiled slightly, "But father has something to do with this son?"

The person who came was none other than Huaiyang Hou's personal follower, Leng Jifeng. Leng Jifeng accompanied Huaiyang Hou all year round, almost inseparable. He came to find Leng Yuanxun, obviously following Huaiyang Hou's order.

Leng Jifeng nodded with a smile, "What Shizi said is that Lord Hou invites you to go to the study in the main house."

Leng Yuanxun's ability to observe words and expressions is very strong. He took a look at Leng Jifeng and found a trace of seriousness in his eyes that he had never seen before. Not daring to delay for a moment, he hurried to the study.

Huaiyang Hou has been favored by generations. Although the mansion is large in size, there is no luxury and luxury piled up with gold and jade. It only uses black and white as the main color, and it is full of exotic flowers and plants and ancient trees and steles. It is high-end and full of cultural atmosphere.

Leng Yuanxun walked very fast, but within a short time of incense sticks he arrived at the study room, followed by Leng Jifeng, who was about to enter the room to report, when he heard a steady male voice coming from the room, "Is that Yuan Xun here, come in !"

Leng Yuanxun entered according to his words, stood still in the middle of the study, knelt down respectfully, and respectfully said: "Son, pay respects to father."

"come on."

"Yes." Leng Yuanxun approached according to his words, and seeing Huaiyang Hou standing in front of the desk copying a famous copybook, he said with a faint smile: "Every time my father encounters a difficult problem that he doesn't know how to solve, he will practice calligraphy meticulously, I don't know if the son can share the worries of the father?"

Hearing Leng Yuanxun's words, Huaiyang Hou paused slightly while holding the Langhao pen, raised his eyes and said: "My son has always been smart, so why don't you guess what troubles you for your father?"

In Leng Yuanxun's memory, Huaiyanghou seldom spoke to him in such a tone, and he felt a little surprised in his heart, immediately withdrew his expression, and respectfully said: "I don't know what I did wrong, my son, please tell me clearly."

"Do you really not know, or are you trying to hide it from me?" Hou Huaiyang frowned, and his originally benevolent face became a little more majestic, "Say, what are you and Princess Xinyue doing?" What's going on?"

Huaiyanghou was not unaware of the unspoken friendship between Leng Yuanxun and Qu Lingxu, but he did not expect that Leng Yuanxun would meet with him in private again and again, and he would kill the people around him. The dark guards assigned a few to Qu Lingxu, and all of this was far beyond what Huaiyang Hou could tolerate. After all, Leng Yuanxun had a great responsibility to shoulder, and he must not make a wrong step.

Leng Yuanxun didn't intend to hide his love for Qu Lingxu from Huaiyang Hou, but when he saw the other party mentioning it, he said truthfully: "Father calm down, my son and Princess Xinyue are in love, although we can't get married yet , but the covenant of life and death has been made, and there will never be any changes, please father to fulfill it."

Seeing that Leng Yuanxun was honest with himself and did not deliberately hide anything, the anger in Huaiyang Hou calmed down a little, and he said coldly: "Princess Xinyue is smarter and quicker than countless noble girls from ordinary families. She can fall into your eyes I don't think it's strange to be a father, but it's because she's too smart that you have to be more cautious, otherwise, once she detects any clues about your identity, what awaits you and our Huaiyang Marquis Mansion is a hell beyond redemption, you Do you understand?"

The road to succession is perilous every step of the way, and they are not yet fully sure that they can set things right. At this time, if they make a wrong step, everything they have painstakingly prepared for the past 20 years will be reduced to ashes.

Leng Yuanxun didn't understand Huaiyanghou's worries, so he immediately comforted him: "Father, rest assured that Princess Xinyue will never do anything that is unfavorable to his son. On this point, my son dares to guarantee it with his life."

"Life? How many lives do you have?" Seeing Leng Yuanxun's words with such certainty, Hou Huaiyang suddenly regretted not explaining his interests to him earlier, and couldn't help but say impatiently: "Your intentions are naturally good, but How do you understand her intentions? As a father, you might as well tell you that the queen has already made up her mind to let the crown prince marry Princess Xinyue as the crown princess. tempted?"

Marriages of aristocratic families often put profit first, and being a queen is the dream of all women. In the eyes of Huaiyang Hou, even if Qu Lingxu is different from others, he cannot escape this cliché.

"Xu'er won't." Leng Yuanxun raised his head to meet Huaiyang Hou's stern gaze, and said word by word: "If Xu'er was really interested in the prince, he would not have taken such a big risk to go to Jiangling to save his son. , she is a doctor, if she is not sincerely willing, there are naturally countless ways to shirk it, and my son believes in her just like he believes in his father."

"Xun'er, why did you..." Seeing Leng Yuanxun being so stubborn, Huaiyang Hou felt a surge of anger welling up in his forehead, and was about to continue to reprimand him, when he suddenly got excited and blurted out: "Be honest, your Things, how much does she know?"

"All."

When hearing these two words from Leng Yuanxun's mouth, Huaiyang Hou almost felt overwhelmed. At this moment, he only had one thought in his mind, he must find a chance to get rid of Qu Lingxu, this woman must never stay again!
Knowing father Mo Ruozi, when the hideous look in Huaiyang Hou's eyes flashed past, Leng Yuanxun guessed that the other party had murderous intentions in his heart, and immediately said coldly: "Same voice corresponds to each other, and the same heart knows each other. The son already knows each other in his heart." If you regard Xu'er as your wife, you must give her all your trust, and you will protect her for the rest of your life. As long as your son survives in this world, no one can hurt her at all, including you, father."

Leng Yuanxun was smart and polite since he was a child. No matter his studies or martial arts, he never let Huaiyang Hou worry about it. Seeing that he is getting better and better, Huaiyang Hou is also gratified from the bottom of his heart. He never thought of it. A filial son would actually say such things to him for a woman!

"What did you say! Tell me again!" Huaiyang Houqi's hands were trembling, and he felt all the blood in his body rushing to his head in an instant, so that he could hardly stand up, his eyes were full of red flames He took a long time to adjust his breath, grabbed the paperweight on the table and slammed it on the ground in front of Leng Yuanxun, and shouted sharply: "Okay! You have been so confused because of a woman that you forgot your mission, forgot Don't hate yourself!"

Leng Yuanxun is the orphan left by the former crown prince. In Huaiyanghou's heart, he has always been regarded as the young master. Over the years, let alone scolding him harshly, he never said a single serious word, but now it is like this. You can see how angry he was.

Hearing the reprimand from Marquis Huaiyang, Leng Yuanxun was not angry. He just knelt down on his clothes, kowtowed respectfully, and said word by word: "Father has raised his son for twenty years. The son has not fulfilled his filial piety, but instead offended his father." Angry, really deserves to die, but the son wants his father to understand that Xu'er is not the kind of person who is greedy for fame, wealth and wealth, let alone a greenhouse flower that cannot withstand wind and rain. My son was a great help."

If it wasn't for Qu Lingxu's rescue, he would have died in the plague a few months ago. Since Qu Lingxu saved his life, what else can he not say?
Xuer.

Just now, Huaiyanghou's thoughts were completely occupied by anger. Now that he heard Leng Yuanxun call Qu Lingxu like this again, he couldn't help being in a trance for a moment. Once upon a time, he also called his beloved wife like this. Unfortunately, their love It was so short-lived. At that time, his wife had just given birth to a daughter and was very weak, but he made his own proposal, using her newly born baby daughter in exchange for Leng Yuanxun's life, but his wife, because she couldn't stand such a situation, The blow, the body gradually weakened, and finally died...

Helplessness, there are too many helplessness in life, but each pile, one by one, is not the eternal sorrow in his heart...

Seeing Huaiyanghou standing there motionless, Leng Yuanxun thought that he was about to suffer from his old illness, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and asked with concern: "Father, are you alright?"

Leng Yuanxun's words brought back Huaiyanghou's wandering thoughts, he fixedly looked at the familiar face in front of him, and said calmly: "Xuner, do you know that we have no way out."

Looking at Huaiyanghou's face that seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, Leng Yuanxun nodded solemnly, and said every word: "Father worked hard for his son. Since the moment his son knew his life experience, he has never thought about the word retreat. Now that the officials in the court are corrupt, how can the spirits of grandfather and father rest in heaven, my son must correct all of this bit by bit, and return us to the people of the Great Xia Dynasty a peaceful and prosperous world."

"Father understands Xun'er's mind, but..."

Knowing that Huaiyang Hou still had a lot of worries about Qu Lingxu, Leng Yuanxun didn't want to argue any more to make the other party angry, so he just smiled lightly: "Father, just relax, let your son handle everything outside. If you still If there is any doubt, the son will immediately enter the palace and ask the emperor to marry him."

"Nonsense." Huaiyang Hou gave Leng Yuanxun a cold look, and continued: "Since you trust Qu Lingxu so much, father doesn't want to say anything more, but it's always good to be careful about everything."

"My son remembers my father's teachings." Leng Yuanxun nodded 'obediently', looked at Huaiyang Hou and said, "Now that Murong Li's power has been greatly damaged, he may be very angry. With Murong Jing's temperament, he will definitely take the opportunity to be cruel To suppress the opponent's arrogance, if this continues, there is no guarantee that Murong Li will not jump the wall in a hurry and do something crazier."
