    The side yard of Ling Mansion.

    Now that Jing Liangtu has returned to the original owner's home, his living standard has been greatly improved, but he is not used to it now.

    When we met that day, Ling You, a man who was decisive on the battlefield and never shed tears, actually hugged him tightly, as if he was about to shed all the tears in his life, and kept calling his name in his mouth, confirming over and over again that the person in front of him is not Huang Liang Yimeng.

    Before leaving the brothel, he looked back deeply for the last time.

    He met Xiao Qi in a hurry, and also left in a hurry.

    I don't know the future is that people are worthy or not because of the fate when they first met.

    When he returned to Ling's mansion, Ling Changxiu didn't feel any pity in his eyes when he saw this lost and found son.

    He clearly knew that Ling Shuangzhu might have slipped and fell off the cliff, and his body was smashed to pieces, but judging from his current expression, he didn't care when he thought about it.

    However, probably because of Ling You's face, Ling Changxiu finally allowed Ling Shuangzhu to live in the side courtyard as before.

    Jing Liangtu paid his respects to his father with no sadness or joy on his face, and thanked him for his kindness. There is no one else when father and son are separated to this extent.

    Seeing the disappointment in Ling Shuangzhu's eyes, Ling You felt a dull pain in his heart.

    It has to be said that as a rough guy, Ling You is extremely clumsy even if he wants to be nice to anyone.

    Early this morning, Jing Liangtu had just woken up from his sleep, his eyes were dim, and before he could figure out the situation, he saw a tall and burly elder brother throw a bag of silver into his hand.

    Jing Liangtu, who thought he was still in An Xiangzhai, was stupefied, and had the illusion that this was a prostitution fund from some wealthy client.

    Then he heard his cousin's upright voice that couldn't be more upright: "Take it, you can spend them within one day today."

    Jing Liangtu: "..."

    This cousin really behaved so awkwardly towards everyone, it could be seen that he was inexperienced.

    Jing Liangtu bumped the purse in his hand, the weight was not small, judging from the consumption level of Ling Shuangzhu in the past, it was estimated that it would take a few months.

    This is also... too generous.

    He considered his words: "Cousin, I don't have anything to buy, and I am not short of food and clothing. You should take the money back."

    The money offered was rejected, Ling You was taken aback, not quite understanding what countermeasures to give next.

    However, Ling Shuangzhu has always been like this. He never takes things that don't belong to him, and he never fights for what is added to the house. He always takes other people's leftovers.

    But even if he was wearing the most inferior clothes, he was still the most beautiful child in the mansion, and people couldn't take their eyes off him just by looking at him.

    Even when Ling You was fighting outside, he was always worried about him.

    Once, a soldier in the military camp was homesick late at night, so he picked up a pen and paper and wrote a letter to his wife and children at home.

    Ling You found out.

    He checked the contents of the letter and returned the letter to him after repeatedly confirming that it was not sending intelligence to the enemy army, with a stern expression on his face.

    The soldier thought the general was angry, and stood there shaking like chaff, fearing that his next order would be to take him down to be tortured.

    Unexpectedly, General Ling held back for a long time before finally choking out a sentence: "I also have a cousin who is about the same age as your son, who is very beautiful, and no one can match him in the world."

    The soldier was dumbfounded.

    At that moment, there was a strange guess in his heart——

    Isn't General Ling... showing off?

    Probably after that, there were rumors in the military camp that General Mo Feiling was the fabled favorite brother, the madman.

    Now the offer of money was met with an unexpected refusal, and he felt that Ling Shuangzhu's words were just being polite to him, and he didn't dare to accept it.

    He could only glance over his face and put on a general's posture: "Take it, this is an order."

    Jing Liangtu: "..."

    I have seen people giving money, but have never seen people forcing people to take money.

    However, he likes such a cousin, very much.

    Ling You looked down at Ling Shuangzhu silently accepting the money, but

    It was obviously as he wanted, but his heart became entangled again.

    Was my tone too aggressive just now?Will it scare him?

    Shuangzhu just encountered such a thing not long ago, if he still looks at his fierce self after returning home, will he feel wronged in his heart?

    Thinking of this, his tone softened as much as possible: "You have a good rest, if you don't have enough money, just ask me."

    Jing Liangtu blinked his eyes.

    It is said that Ling You led troops to fight all the year round, made great achievements in battle, and received a lot of rewards, but he had no material desires, and he had no place to use the money, let alone a wife and children. The money had no place to spend and could only be piled up.

    In other words, rich and handsome cousin.

    This person is very worthy of deep friendship!

    Jing Liangtu did not disappoint his kindness, but put away the money carefully, looked at Ling You with clear eyes, and smiled sincerely: "Thank you, cousin."

    Seeing him like this, a smile that he hadn't seen for many years also appeared on Ling You's face.

    Everyone around Ling You knew that since Mr. Ling came back, Ling You laughed more times than all the past combined.

    For him, it is God's pity to find it after losing it.

    This time, he will definitely protect him and not let him be wronged like that again.

    It's just that there is one more thing that is very important right now.

    It is why Ling Shuangzhu was reduced to a brothel.

    Although Jing Liangtu tried his best to minimize the loss he suffered, he had no way to replace Ling Shuangzhu to forgive what his biological mother had done.

    In the original plot line, after returning home, Ling Shuangzhu, who was tortured and humiliated in the brothel, pointed at his biological mother Shu Yun with dark eyes, and said word by word: "It is she who disregards the relationship between mother and child,I bought a brothel and was humiliated."

    Just like the original plot line, Jing Liangtu also told Ling You about this after returning home.

    After that, Ling You was furious immediately, drew his sword and went to the foot of the mountain to find Shu Yun who lived here in seclusion.

    Shu Yun originally wanted to wait for Ling You to clear her of the crime of adultery, but she did not expect to be interrogated by him with a sword.

    Shu Yun knows how to calculate.

    She threatened: "I advise you to keep this matter a secret. If others know that Ling Shuangzhu once fell into a brothel and was humiliated by thousands of people, you should think about what will happen to his reputation!"

    Ling You was really stunned.

    Shu Yun smiled: "People's words are scary, you don't want him to die under the spit and ruin his future, so you let me live!"

    Ling You's face turned livid, and veins appeared on his arms, but there was nothing he could do.

    Ling Shuangzhu was treated harshly, if Ling Changxiu knew that he used to stay in the brothel and became the object of appreciation for others, he would definitely treat him even more coldly.

    He closed his eyes in pain, gritted his teeth and said, "Get lost!"

    Shu Yun immediately ran away rolling and crawling.

    After she ran away, Ling You's eyebrows gradually became sharper.

    His subordinates knelt in front of him, lowered their eyebrows, and waited for orders.

    "Kill her if necessary."

    "The subordinates take orders."

    It was the first time that Ling You was so cruel to someone who was related to him.

    But how dare she treat Ling Shuangzhu like this.

    How dare she?

    After he told Ling Shuangzhu the result of this matter, he originally thought that he would have some painful reaction.

    Unexpectedly, lying on the bed, his complexion was very dull.

    His eyelashes drooped slightly, and he said calmly: "I have expected it."

    Ling You clenched his hands subconsciously.

    It's just that he didn't know that the person in front of him "had expected it" was really expected.

    After all, Jing Liangtu is the one holding the script!

    So Jing Liangtu also knew that Shu Yun encountered a wild beast on the mountain on the way to escape, and entered the tiger's mouth.

    He also knew that Ling You would keep it from him because he was worried that the death of his biological mother would hurt him.

    After all, he thinks that Ling Shuangzhu is still the same as he was when he was a child, a good boy who would feel guilty for accidentally stepping on bugs to death.

    Just don't know, in An Xiangzhai

    The days and nights spent here have turned the original Ling Shuangzhu into a cold-blooded character without emotion.

    It is also because of this that he embarked on the path of a villain, and has been running wildly on this path since then, never to return.

    In order not to make him sad, Ling You said softly: "You have a good rest, call me in if you have something to do, I will always be here."

    Jing Liangtu looked at him gratefully: "Okay, thank you cousin for taking care of me."

    In the past, Ling Shuangzhu actually cared about this cousin very much, but before he was imprisoned in the brothel, he thought he had a bad temper and a fierce person, so he always didn't dare to say too much in front of him, and he didn't dare to express his gratitude in his heart.

    And after that, he thought that he had entered a brothel, dirty his body, and tarnished his reputation. He felt that his cousin, who looked down on the brothel most in his life, would despise him because of this, so he was even more afraid to express it frankly.

    He came and went again and again, until he died without saying thank you to this person who was like a close relative.

    Thinking about it, it is also very regrettable.

    He lowered his eyelashes, grabbed the quilt with his hands, and said in an extremely sincere tone: "Although you are just my cousin, I always feel that you are like my elder brother, always taking care of me. I... like you very, very much."

    Ling You didn't expect him to say that, and immediately froze in place.

    He swallowed his saliva, his hands stiffened, and he said expressionlessly: "Where, it should be."

    As he said that, he helped him cover the quilt with a blank expression, told him not to step on the quilt with a blank expression, and closed the door with a blank expression, and finally looked up at the sky, trying to pretend to be reserved.

    When the servant serving tea passed by this other courtyard, the devil found that the lips of this unsmiling general with a reputation for viciousness were twitching, and the corners of his lips seemed to be going up to the sky!

    With his left hand, Jing Liangtu rubbed the prince's badge that Xiao Qi gave him, resting his face with his right hand, his gaze pondered.

    In the original plot line, he didn't give himself such a thing.

    This thing is like a hot potato, very troublesome, but he is reluctant to throw it away.

    The current protagonist must have returned to the man-eating palace, competing with a group of human and animal-hearted opponents.

    But Jing Liangtu knew that no matter how difficult it was, he would definitely succeed.

    It's just that after many years, he should not be the innocent boy he met in An Xiangzhai.

    It is estimated that it is already a wolf with a big tail full of calculations.

    Jing Liangtu sighed subconsciously, and hid the waist card in a concealed cabinet, as if a period of past years had been sealed in dust.

    Like falling flowers, with a touch of sadness.

    I'm in a bad mood.

    Perhaps as Ling You said, it's time for him to go out and spend money.

    After becoming the president, he hasn't felt the feeling of squandering money for a long time.

    After he put on his clothes, he put on a high ponytail in front of the yellowed mirror, and his whole body instantly regained his complexion, with the smell of an angry horse in fresh clothes.

    There is no need to pretend to be a sick beauty here, he should be a bit sharp.

    He wanted to go out and show Xiao Qi.

    But he suddenly remembered that Xiao Qi was already in Long Ao Tian's plot, and he wasn't here at all.

    For some reason, the mood became more and more lost.

    On the way, he saw his elder brother, Ling Hongye.

    The eldest son of Ling Changxiu.

    He exchanged glances with Jing Liangtu, and then looked away with extreme disgust.

    Jing Liangtu also pouted, not looking at him much.

    He has no plans to find anger for himself.

    He angrily went to the street to buy a pass, thinking that the pair of shoes on Ling You's feet seemed to be worn out, so he asked the system for his shoe size, and asked the system to detect it in the shoe store, and choseI bought a pair of the best quality and most comfortable shoes.

    Jing Liangtu looked at this gift with a smile on his face.

    In Ling's mansion, Ling Shuangzhu was not allowed to eat at the table.

    Ling You was worried that Ling Shuangzhu was in a bad mood, so he brought a lot of his favorite dishes and snacks to visit him that night.

    When he went, Ling Shuangzhu was standing in the courtyard, his white clothes and long sleeves were blown up by the wind, his hair was untied, he raised his hand to catch a fallen leaf, his eyelashes were drooping, and the breeze was blowing him

    The hair between the temples has a cool temperament.

    He is obviously a very gentle child, but he was not taken seriously since he was a child, and he received too much cold treatment.

    Even though he felt distressed, he had been fighting outside all year round, beyond his reach, and neglected to take care of him.

    Perhaps because of this, he is now so reticent and doesn't like to open his heart to others.

    He looked at it for a while, and walked over with the food box, trying to stretch his brows as much as possible, so as not to let him mistakenly think that he was fierce and had a bad temper.

    When Ling Shuangzhu saw him coming, a smile appeared on his face: "Cousin."

    "En." Ling You answered seriously, feeling soft-hearted for a while.

    With a mysterious smile on his face, he came straight over and took his hand to lead him into the room.

    Ling You didn't know why, but he followed closely.

    Until he saw Ling Shuangzhu take out a pair of shoes under the warm yellow light, the stitches are fine and the workmanship is rigorous, it seems that they have been carefully selected.

    "you..."

    "My cousin has taken care of me a lot, but he is very small and has no intention of repaying it." Jing Liangtu smiled and was extremely sincere.

    The money is used from my deposit in An Xiangzhai, and the quality is checked by the system layer by layer.

    Jing Liangtu is full of confidence.

    Ling You was stunned in place, and there was no movement for a long time.

    Jing Liangtu still thought he didn't like it, and felt a little flustered.

    Unexpectedly, Ling You put down the food box, stretched out his hand, and hugged him tenderly.

    Ling You is a general with strong hands and can fight a hundred with one.

    That's why when you hug your younger brother, you have to be so careful and gentle.

    "Thank you, I like it very much."

    "nice! You love it."

    That night, the two of them opened their hearts and had a long talk.

    Jing Liangtu asked: "How did Xiao Qi convince you to protect him?"

    Ling You lowered his eyelashes: "He said that no matter what camp I stand in, and no matter who will win to the end in the future, he will give us a place."

    Jing Liangtu understood.

    Ling You wants a promise that if the Queen Mother loses, the Ling family can continue.

    This is probably the solution that anyone with choice difficulties will like.

    Ling You himself does not agree with the actions of the Queen Mother's party, but because of family reasons, he has no choice but to remain neutral. He only hopes to do his best to protect his family and country and do his best.

    Ling You asked him: "He gave you that waist card...will you look for him?"

    Jing Liangtu shook his head: "I will pretend that I never knew him."

    He cleared his eyes and said: "From the perspective of the camp, we are considered political enemies. In the past, let's regard it as a mistake. Where we go in the future, each depends on his ability."

    Ling You sighed and said: "It's best if you can think about it. The Emperor's family is the most ruthless. I'm very relieved that you don't fall into it."

    A gust of wind hung the fallen leaves from the treetops, and it was a pity that they fell all over the ground.

    Time flies like an arrow.

    Along the way, Xiao Qi stood on the high platform, but he felt lonely amidst the ministers bowing their heads and shouting long live.

    Long live?

    Is it the highest point?

    But why still can't see the person he most wants to see at the moment through the layers of the palace?

    I just feel very cold.

    At the same time, the chief minister of the cabinet died of illness, and his son Ling Shuangzhu succeeded him. Because the emperor was ill and feared that he would not be able to handle the official affairs of the court, he was entrusted with the post of regent.

    Another puppet emperor.

    The ministers acquiesced in this way.

    When the enthronement ceremony was about to end, the belated regent dressed in a python robe, paced forward, knelt down without a trace, and said the last sentence: "Long live Your Majesty."
