Chapter 736 Afterword Knockback (1)
He had made a plan in his heart, and when Ling Mengqi became the commander of the Jinyiwei, he took the opportunity to propose to send some of his confidants to the Jinyiwei to practice. Pray that the family will be alone.

But he didn't expect that Ling Mengqi didn't intend to be the commander at all. Does this mean that when he fell asleep, he met someone who gave him a pillow?

Thinking of this, Murong Heng's expression softened even more, and he said in a hissed voice: "You and Madam are deeply in love, so I naturally won't blame you, but I really can't find a suitable person to take over for a while. Jin Yiwei, why don't you take over for now, and it won't be too late to make plans after you bring out a few candidates who can take over for me?"

"I obey the order!" This coincided with the plan in Ling Mengqi's heart, and he agreed immediately.

At that moment, the monarch and his ministers whispered a few more words, seeing that the business was over, Murong Heng suddenly said: "It's rare that you enter the palace today, and you should also go to the main hall to burn incense, after all..."

Ling Mengqi pursed his lips and fell silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I have one more thing to ask you, Princess Baoyi, and please take care of me a little bit more."

Speaking of which, Princess Baoyi is already his only remaining blood relative in this world, and Concubine Luo cried and asked him to go and see her in person, but one of them is a princess and the other is a foreign minister. Meeting each other, never meeting each other, meeting is just embarrassing, it is better not to see each other.

Murong Heng nodded and said: "Bao Yi is also my younger sister, so I will order her down so that no one will wrong her, don't worry."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ling Mengqi thanked him again, and then he left the side hall and went to the main hall where the spirit stopped.

At that time, it was the gap between civil and military officials and wives crying twice, so there were only some serving eunuchs and maids in the hall.

Ling Mengqi stepped forward to burn incense with a solemn face, and stood quietly in front of Empress Luo's Zi Palace for a while, then turned and left.

Fang Xing went to the gate of the palace, but he ran into a [-]-year-old girl dressed in sackcloth. From body shape to facial features, she was five or six points similar to Empress Luo, but she looked very thin and haggard.

Almost instantly, Ling Mengqi had already guessed the latter's identity, and was about to follow the courtesy of a monarch and minister, but the other party had already passed him, leaving only the soft word "Treasure".

Ling Mengqi knew that the other party already knew who he was, and obviously, she had no intention of recognizing him.

That's fine, it's true that it's better for them to be monarchs and ministers than brothers and sisters... Ling Mengqi also replied softly: "Treasure!" He strode away from Jiaotai Hall.

Throughout their lives, the siblings never met again.

Ling Mengqi had been busy at the Jinyi Guards until the third day, and then he was able to temporarily escape and go back to Lu's house to see Lu Mingxuan and Brother Yi.

At that time, Lu Mingxuan had already learned from Lu Zhongxian that Ling Mengqi had become the commander of the Jinyi Guard. Although she knew that Lu Zhongxian would not and would not dare to make fun of such a big matter, she still held a fluke hope in her heart. As soon as Ling Mengqi came back, her first sentence was to ask: "The emperor really let you take charge of Jin Yiwei?"

Hearing this, Ling Mengqi recalled what he had promised her before, and couldn't help apologizing, and said: "I'm sorry, the emperor opened his mouth and said that he couldn't find someone more suitable than me. I really couldn't shirk it, so I had to agree." It’s down. But don’t worry, it’s only for a while, after I have cultivated a few people who can take over for the emperor, I can leave, and I will never break my promise to you.”

Seeing that Ling Mengqi was full of self-blame from his expression to his tone, Lu Mingxuan suddenly realized that her attitude was a bit too much. In the eyes of outsiders, it was a happy event that Ling Mengqi was finally promoted. He was so unhappy that he went crazy, and he shouldn't have put on a posture of incriminating him as soon as he met.

Besides, the emperor is the king and he is the minister. If the king wants his ministers to die, the ministers have to die. What's more, now that the emperor has promoted him to an official position, is it really necessary for him to resist the emperor?
Lu Mingxuan laughed because of her haste: "Why are you sorry for me? Could it be wrong for you to make my husband honorable and my wife more honorable than before? I was just worried about you. Now that you said it was only for a while, you will If I can still escape, then I will be relieved."

The conversation changed: "You haven't seen Brother Yi for several days, you don't know, he can spit bubbles, but it's fun, you will know when he wakes up later."

Ling Mengqi was very interested when he heard the words, so he wanted to go to the bedside to look at Brother Yi, and after walking two steps, he remembered that he had just come back from the outside, covered in dust, if it made Brother Yi feel uncomfortable Now, I and Lu Mingxuan are still not sure how to feel distressed.

So he hurriedly stopped, and turned to the clean room.

All of a sudden Ling Mengqi came out after changing clothes, but Brother Qiaoer Yi also woke up. I don't know if the little guy knows that his father is back.

However, after only seeing each other for two or three days, Ling Mengqi felt that brother Yi had grown up a lot. As soon as he teased him, he grinned his toothless mouth and smiled straight at him, which made his heart tremble. It's almost turning into a puddle of water.

And it's really like what Lu Mingxuan said, the little guy can spit bubbles, I don't know how cute that is.

Brother Yi was hungry at that moment, Lu Mingxuan hurriedly asked the nanny to come in and hug him to the ear room to nurse, Fang then asked Ling Mengqi: "You suddenly took over the Jinyiwei, the people below, especially the two deputy commanders, no one will give you a helping hand." Make a stumbling block?"

After all, with Ling Mengqi's age and seniority, it is really rare to be the commander of Jinyiwei in all dynasties.

Ling Mengqi smiled and said: "Everyone knows that 'once the emperor, one courtier', and I am a person who has the merits of a dragon, who dares to trip me up? Show it in the slightest, or the first three flames of my new official's appointment may be on someone!"

Lu Mingxuan nodded: "As long as the two deputy commanders are safe and sound, the others are expected to not be able to make any trouble."

Ling Mengqi was silent for a moment, and then said again: "I entered the palace that day, and after the emperor finished talking to me about the business, he allowed me to go to the mourning hall to burn a stick of incense. On...Princess Baoyi."

"Then does she know who you are? Did she talk to you?" Lu Mingxuan hurriedly said, "Anyway, she has half the same blood as yours, and now the previous generation is gone. If she needs anything, and you happen to be able to help her, you can help her. She is a weak woman, even if she is a princess. After all, the person who has the final say in the palace is the Empress Dowager Xiao. Her situation Where can it be better?"

Ling Mengqi shook his head and said slowly: "She did talk to me, but she only had two words 'precious'. Even if I wanted to help her, I couldn't help her. But I have already told the emperor, please let the queen Take care of her a little bit more, the emperor has already agreed, saying that she is also his younger sister, he will order her to go on and not wrong her, that's all."
