Sir, can you marry me?

Chapter 298

The atmosphere in the front yard was very serious. In the room where Prime Minister Ling was resting in the past, the old imperial doctor of the imperial hospital had just pulled out the gold needles from Prime Minister Ling’s head one by one, and the servants brought the urgently prepared ginseng soup, even the official uniform Ling Yulou, who hadn't changed yet, took the ginseng soup. Ling Yuxuan, who also didn't change his clothes, held his father in his arms, and the two worked together to feed his father the ginseng soup.

When they were in the palace, the imperial physicians shook their heads. The two brothers understood that their father's time had come, and there was no medicine for him.The acupuncture and ginseng soup just wanted him to wake up for a while, meet his children and grandchildren, and explain his last words.

Prime Minister Ling didn't have much intuition anymore, he barely drank half of a bowl of ginseng soup, and the other half overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Father, father..." Ling Yuxuan and Ling Yulou kept calling Prime Minister Ling, their eyes were red.They are different from the sisters. They were brought up by their father since they were young, and they have a deep relationship with his father.

"Master, master, wake up quickly." The prime minister's wife cried out sadly after entering, and couldn't hold back the tears.Although the relationship between their husband and wife has weakened, they used to love each other. He is still the source of her prosperity and wealth. Without him, she will lose her glory.

Xiao Wenqing and his third sister-in-law Cui stood in the corner with the two girls from the Ling family.Ling Jingquan, who was a small official in the Ministry of Household Affairs, had already rushed back after hearing the news, and gathered around the bed with Ling Jingquan and Ling Jinghai, who had also rushed back from the Imperial College.

After a while, Prime Minister Ling opened his cloudy eyes and looked around blankly at the people around him. "Scare...scare..." He made a muffled sound in his throat, and everyone hurriedly listened.

"Jingquan... Di... eldest grandson... Jing... Quan..." Prime Minister Ling panted heavily, his right hand trembling, trying to point to Ling Jingquan.

The prime minister's wife immediately said: "I understand, you want the eldest son Jingquan to inherit the Ling family clan."

The people in the room suddenly looked at Ling Jingquan in surprise, Ling Jingquan immediately shook his head eagerly and said: "Grandfather, the fourth uncle is the legitimate son, he is better than me." Although both grandmother and mother had this intention, and father also faintly inclined to him, but he knew, I am far inferior to my fourth uncle.

Ling Yulou glanced at Ling Jingquan and said, "Your grandfather's decision is not wrong." He was told the reason when his father insisted on making Jingquan the eldest grandson.

Prime Minister Ling gasped for a while, and continued: "Family property... Yu, Yulou... and Jingquan... share it equally. Book... room... bookshelf... there is... suicide note... to... Yuxuan... Zhen Guo... Long... General knows..." After finally saying this, he couldn't hold on any longer, let out his last gasp, tilted his head and limp, and collapsed in Ling Yuxuan's arms.

"Father, father!" Ling Yuxuan and Ling Yulou who were closest to him shouted in grief, and they burst into tears.

"Master... oh my god..." The prime minister's wife suddenly burst into tears.Cao Yunniang, who supported her, was already in tears.

"Grandfather, grandpa..." cried the grandchildren.

Xiao Wenqing and Cui's heart were sad, wept and sobbed, and began to kneel down.The servants in the house also started to kneel and cry immediately, and the concubines and aunts standing outside knew that the Prime Minister had passed, and all started howling.The head of the prime minister's mansion passed away, and for a while, there was a lot of crying in the prime minister's mansion.

The old doctor of the imperial hospital persuaded: "Mr. Ling Tongzhi, Mr. Ling Shaoqing, please give me condolences. The old prime minister has passed away, you should send someone to cleanse him and change his shroud." The third son of the old prime minister is now You Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and the fourth Ren Longlinwei Commander Si Commander Tongzhi, even if the old prime minister chooses the eldest grandson, the Ling family will not decline because of losing him.
