Nangong Yitian went to the Ministry of War today. As the prince, he had the authority to inspect the Ministry of War.
He summoned the officials of the Ministry of War, including King Jin and Lingxiu, in the main hall.
The Ministry of War has injected a lot of new blood, most of whom are the confidants promoted by King Jin.
Therefore, although these people came to see the prince, their attitude was a bit arrogant.
After Nangong Yitian briefly asked some questions, he asked them to leave, leaving Ling Xiu alone.
When King Jin saw this, he knew what trick he was trying to play, but he just let it go.
Nangong Yitian and Lingxiu closed the door in the main hall and talked for about a stick of incense. Although King Jin ordered people to eavesdrop outside, they said they didn't hear anything, but they heard the sound of some fists and kicks.
After the sound of fists and kicks stopped, the door opened. The prince showed off his robes and walked out. His tense face softened a lot. He turned around and said to Lingxiu, "You should do your errands at the Ministry of War. I have ordered You must also take care of your affairs and don’t let me down.”
After saying that, he strode away.
Lingxiu's hair was a little messy, his cheeks seemed to be swollen, and his expression was very complicated. He held his hands and said, "Your Highness, take your time."
After Nangong Yitian left, the person who had just listened immediately went to report to King Jin. What Nangong Yitian said before leaving really sounded like the spiritual practice was still used by him, and it was someone he placed in the military department.
King Jin sneered in his heart, Nangong Yi, my God, are you going to use these clumsy tricks now?
But it can be seen that leaving spiritual practice was a big blow and humiliation to him.
And he thought that if he came to stir up trouble, Ling Xiu would not be trusted and he would not be able to survive in the Ministry of War, but doing so would only increase Ling Xiu's resentment towards him.
He smiled proudly and ordered: "Go and invite Master Ling over."
There are certain things that he should clarify with his spiritual practice. He has no way out.
After a while of spiritual practice, he arrived, walked in the door and held his hands in his hands, "Your Majesty."
"Secretary Ling, please sit down." King Jin sat on the chair, his attitude gradually becoming more majestic than that of a superior.
"Thank you, sir." Lingxiu sat down and turned his face slightly, trying to cover up the blue bruises on his cheeks.
But King Jin still saw it and asked, "Is your face okay?"
Lingxiu lowered his eyes, hiding his complicated expression, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. It's okay. I accidentally hit the door."
King Jin smiled and said: "The servant is so powerful in martial arts, why did he hit the door? Are you panicking when you see your old master?"
"There is no saying that the old master is now the master. His Highness the Crown Prince is the crown prince and the future emperor... I still respect His Highness."
What he said was somewhat insincere, and there was a hint of resentment in his usually cold eyes.
King Jin looked at him and said: "There are some things that I don't want to be too clear about, but the minister should know it well. If you don't make some achievements in office, I'm afraid you won't be able to sit in this position for too long. Prince They're watching you over there, and they won't make it easy for you, you know this, right?"
Ling Xiu condensed, "Clear."
"As long as it's clear, I hope you won't disappoint me." King Jin stood up, walked up to Lingxiu, and patted his shoulder, "You, don't always be submissive. Your identity is different now. You are an official of the imperial court and a dignified fourth-rank official. If you can counteract certain things yourself, why should you endure the humiliation?"
Ling Xiu's face changed slightly, he pursed his lips and remained silent, and there seemed to be some confrontational emotions in his eyes.
King Jin looked at him, a little disappointed, but he also knew not to act too hastily, and said: "Think about it carefully. You can't live in such a miserable life forever. You are about to get married. After you get married, you should also take care of yourself." Plan for the future.”
Ling Xiu sighed softly, his eyes blank and heavy.
King Jin looked at his expression and added, "The princess will enter the palace early tomorrow morning. She bought some dowry for Ape and sent it to the East Palace first. After all, Apei is from the East Palace, so he is supposed to get married from the East Palace." of."
Lingxiu looked grateful, stood up and held his hands in his hands, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love."
"Do your business well and you will have a good life." After King Jin finished speaking, he went out with his hands behind his back.
