Qing Fu Jin

Chapter 135
Ling Bo was taken aback for a moment, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning.

That's right, she is an ordinary young woman. Although she is in a royal and noble family, she has nothing to do with government affairs. How could she suddenly show such a high degree of concern about the political party situation.

From the old man's point of view, these words of hers must not be her own thoughts, maybe she was instructed by Prince Jane and Bo Zhe to test his reaction.

When he asked, Ling Bo was completely unprepared, but he was so blessed that he immediately figured out the joints in the middle.

Since Ama thinks so, let him think so.

She pursed her lips in silence.

Her silence, in Mi Sihan's eyes, became the default.

Sure enough, it was inspired by someone behind the scenes.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with Prince Jane's move. After all, the two families are in-laws and have a close relationship.In the current confusing situation, it is natural to be tempted to test the opponent's reaction in order to advance or retreat.The most important thing is that the two should reach a tacit understanding, exchange information, and support each other.

In this way, today, Ling Bo is regarded as the spokesman for Prince Jane's residence.

"It seems that your father-in-law is not optimistic about the eighth brother." Mi Sihan said something first, and it was a bit like throwing stones to ask for directions.

At this moment, Ling Bo could only rely on her own cognition to answer, she didn't really get any authorization.

"Eighth Prince, although he is talented and capable, but after all, Concubine Liang's background is a bit lower." She replied cautiously.

Concubine Liang is the biological mother of the eighth elder brother Yinhu, who was born in Xin Zheku. She passed away in the 50th year of Kangxi.

Perhaps people in this era still don't know that in the last years of Kangxi, the struggle for power and profit among elder brothers was called the period of "Nine Dragons Seizing the Inheritance" by later generations.However, Lingbo, who once lived in the 21st century, whether it is novels, TV, forums, magazines, etc., in various ways, and various scholars have made various analyzes and interpretations of this period.Even if each family has their own words, she can still receive a huge amount of information, which may not be the most accurate, but it is undoubtedly a summary of experience beyond the times.

What the Qing Dynasty paid attention to was that when you were young, children were more expensive than their mothers, and when they were adults, mothers were more valuable than their children. The two are closely related.Eighth Prince's biological mother, Concubine Liang, came from a humble background, which is a fact that everyone agrees on.

Mi Sihan said: "But the eighth elder brother has always been known as a virtuous king, and many ministers in the court have praised him."

"But isn't this the most taboo thing for the emperor? Don't you remember, in 48, when the crown prince was restored, the third elder brother, fourth elder brother, and fifth elder brother were all named princes, and the rest of the elder brothers were all knighted. The eighth elder brother has nothing, it can be seen that the emperor is very dissatisfied with him."

Ling Bo spoke very smoothly, but he didn't notice that Mi Sihan was looking at her with increasing interest.

What she didn't know was that even the four brothers Ma Siha, Ma Qi, Ma Wu, and Li Rongbao had never had such an in-depth conversation with the old man about these matters.

Mi Sihan felt that this little daughter seemed to be smarter, wiser, and more comprehensive than he imagined.So now he is no longer just an ordinary exchange of political opinions, but also vaguely intends to test her.

"Okay, even if the eighth elder brother committed a taboo, and his family background is restricted, what about the others? Several elder brothers are independent, and party disputes are the most dangerous. Who should we bet on?"

Ling Bo thought as he said, "Although the crown prince has come back to power, after an ups and downs, with the emperor, he is like a registered student waiting for inspection. In the past, the emperor had such high expectations for him, but now he seems to be There is still love and hope, but how is the prince doing? I am only a girl, I don’t know the changes in the court, but I am close to the princess, the princess is often injured, it is all the prince’s fault, This at least proves that the prince does not have the stability, patience and kindness as the prince of a country at all.

"I can see it. If you are as wise as the emperor, can you not see it? I'm afraid the crown prince's seat will be lost sooner or later."

Ling Bo said this with great confidence, because historically, in November of this year, the crown prince will be abolished for the second time, and he will withdraw from the political arena.

But Mi Sihan was shocked when he heard that the emperor's attitude towards the prince had always been elusive. Even he had the opportunity to predict the omen of the second abolished prince because of his deep trust.

Could it be that Prince Jane also got some hints from the emperor?
"Then what about the third elder brother?"

"Third Elder Brother..." Ling Bo hesitated for a moment. The Third Elder Brother seemed to have no other influence besides himself. Because of Bo Zhe, doesn't the Emperor also feel that the third brother is not stable enough, nor does he have enough perspective on the overall situation?"

No, those who can compete with courtiers and be jealous will have a big picture.At first, Yinzhi wanted to use a cover to cover up his real purpose, but he didn't expect that not only would others see through his scheme, but also his relationship with Ling Bo would be completely deadlocked, and he would even leave a bad impression on the emperor.

"So, only the fourth elder brother is left?"

Mi Sihan looked at Ling Bo meaningfully.

Although in history, the fourteenth elder brother was also active on the stage of Kowloon seizing the throne, but that was in the later period. Although he was very active around the 50th year of Kangxi, in the eyes of old politicians like Mi Sihan , more like a child bouncing around, unwilling to be ignored.

At least at this time, Mi Sihan didn't take this elder brother too seriously.

In front of this biological father who loves her the most, Ling Bo doesn't need to hide her political opinions and positions. She nodded and said: "Comparing the forces of all parties, the fourth elder brother is indeed the most competitive person."

Mi Sihan said: "But the fourth elder brother, hasn't he always said good things for the prince, but as for him himself, he is not very prominent."

Now, Ling Bo couldn't help frowning and looking sideways.

"Ama, do you really believe that the fourth elder brother has no ambitions?"

The father and daughter looked at each other for a while and laughed together.

The tea in the teacup in front of Mi Sihan was cold, so he poured it into a spittoon at the corner of the table, and poured himself a cup of hot tea.

"When a person is old, if he talks too much, his mouth will dry up."

He brought hot tea to his lips.

Ling Bo also felt that his mouth was a little dry, so he also poured a glass to drink.

As soon as the warm tea was poured in, I heard the old man say quietly: "These words are not taught to you by others, but your own thoughts, right?"

"Pfft...cough...cough..."

Ling Bo coughed violently, his eyes were red, and he looked at Mi Sihan.

Mi Sihan said in a leisurely manner: "Playing smart in front of your father, thinking that I really can't see it. Yaerjiang is your father-in-law. It is possible to tell you which dish is delicious on the dinner table. Why would I tell you?" Analyze these important political situations."

Ling Bo caught his breath, wiped the tea stains from the corner of his mouth, and said angrily, "It turns out that Ama is just trying to entertain me."

Mi Sihan shook his head slightly: "It's not to amuse you, tell me the truth, where did you hear these words?"

Ling Bo pursed his lips.

"Well, Ama's eyes are as bright as a torch. I can't escape your eyes. It's not my father-in-law who said this, but Bozhe told me. Sometimes when I see him bored, I will ask him about his errands, you know "He is a straightforward person, and our husband and wife talk about everything. We come and go, piece together, and I can always understand some of the current situation. Although my father-in-law and Bo Zhe did not really get the instruction of my father-in-law and Bo Zhe's words today, it is It's also their political opinions that they usually express. It's not that Ama doesn't understand her daughter's will and personality, if I rely on myself, how can I have such insight?"

Mi Sihan nodded, agreeing with her.

"In this way, your husband's family did a good job. Bozhe is also a perceptive kid, very good, very good."

Ling Bo was overjoyed, moved closer to him, and said, "Then, Amma, shouldn't it be time for you to tell me your opinion?"

Mi Sihan turned his face to look at her, clenched her hands into fists, his eyes were bright, he looked like a child begging for snacks, as if he had returned to before she got married, father and daughter were neither big nor small The scene, the heart softened, and there was more smile on the face.

When Ling Bo saw that the corner of his mouth was upturned, he knew that there was something for him, so he quickly grabbed his arm, shook it lightly, and said, "Ama, Bo Zhe is your only son-in-law, you can't just let him go wrong." Let's go."

Mi Sihan said: "Why did he go the wrong way? Haven't you and your husband already analyzed it thoroughly?"

"But he is young after all, and his knowledge is not as good as that of an old senior like you. If there is something unexpected, if he is in the wrong camp, it will be too late to regret." Ling Bo shook him and continued, " Take ten thousand steps back, instead of thinking about Bozhe and Prince Jane's residence, Ama should also think about your unborn grandson."

Mi Sihan was shaken by her so that his whole head shook wildly, as if what was carried on his shoulders was not his neck, but a spring.

"Okay, okay, if you shake it again, my old bones will fall apart."

But Ling Bo didn't let go, instead he put his arms around his arm, raised his face and said: "Ama, doesn't the emperor often call you into the palace, how about it, did he reveal any secret news to you? "

"The old man has retired. Even if he enters the palace, he will just chat with the emperor. How can he talk about these important family and country affairs?"

"Don't fool me, the emperor is so busy all day long, how can he have so much time to talk to you. Besides, if he really wants to pass the time, why should he find you, a bad old man, there are so many beautiful women in the palace, who cares? It's not as interesting as looking at your old bark face. Ama must know what the emperor is thinking, so there's no reason for me to hide it and have fun secretly, just reveal a little bit." She even compared it with her nails. Once, the indication is really only a little bit.

Mi Sihan saw her smiling wickedly, the more she looked like a child, the less psychological barrier he would have.

"Well, for the sake of my unborn grandson, I'll just reveal a little secret to you."

The old man also compared her with his nails, indicating that I really can only tell you this little bit.

Ling Bo nodded his head immediately.
