After seeing off Yun Mo, he walked through the front hall to Canglan Court, and saw Aunt Liu taking off her hairpin and kneeling there sobbing softly, her charming face was covered with tears.Occasionally, there was a coughing sound, and his face was much paler than before.

Ling Mingzhe sat on the main seat, his old face was like a millennium-year-old ice, and there were pain, fatigue, and pain in his sharp eyes.On the table next to him, there was tea and stacks of account books.

As for the position where he strikes, Ling Mufan has no bones, he is lazily sitting in the chair, playing with the white porcelain cup very relaxed and freehand, and when he sees Ling Yuqian coming in, he straightens his face.

"Father."

Ling Yuqian entered the door, bowed her knees and saluted, then sat down on the side, glanced at Aunt Liu indifferently, and did not speak.

Seeing that everyone was present, Ling Mingzhe said, "Do you have anything to explain?"

There was no harsh accusation, nor was there any aura of anger. What was in his voice was just fatigue. The current Ling Mingzhe seemed to be ten years older suddenly, and he did not have the same look as before.

"I don't have anything to explain. All of this was done by me alone." Aunt Liu said, her tone of voice was rare.

"It's the concubine who is greedy and vain, that's why she did such a thing. I've let down the general's love, and I don't have the face to face the general anymore. Please ask the general to deal with the concubine fairly."

After she finished speaking, she closed her eyes and stopped talking, as if she was listening to you.

Ling Yuqian signaled Cha Yun to take the account book that Ling Mingzhe had sorted out, and the more she looked at it, the more startled she felt.

According to the display above, this Aunt Liu actually emptied most of the Ling family's property.After careful calculation, there are as many as tens of thousands of taels.

She closed the ledger, her eyes twinkling.Looking at Ling Mufan, he just smiled slightly, very calm.

"Then let me ask you, where did all these silver coins go!" Ling Mingzhe asked in a deep voice.

"A few years ago, my natal family was about to collapse. I couldn't bear it for a while, so I helped my natal family and opened up relationships. In addition to the expenses of the past three years, it is gone."

Aunt Liu confessed.Her daughter is a concubine. Although there is no way to give her the status of a prostitute for so many years, she has all the things used by a concubine, and some of them are even more luxurious than others.

Coupled with her careful cultivation, Jing Shui'er has a great reputation.So old that no one knew who the daughter of the Ling family was, and they all acquiesced in her status.

As for the decline of the Liu family, Ling Yuqian had already learned about it from Yun Mo, and it seemed that it was because of the decline of the Liu family that everything started.

Ling Mingzhe leaned back. After going through that night, he couldn't bear to do anything to Aunt Liu. In the final analysis, she was just trying to make her family feel better.

After a silence, Ling Mingzhe said lightly, "Yuqian, Mu Fan, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

"Follow your father's arrangement."

Ling Yuqian and Ling Mufan spoke in unison and agreed.

There was another silence in the hall, and the atmosphere was very depressing.Aunt Liu lowered her head, eyes full of resentment and hatred that no one could see.

Ling Mingzhe thought for a long time before he said leisurely, "Take back all the rights and money of Aunt Liu, Ling Yaohua and Ling Shui'er, all savings will be confiscated, and the expenses will be halved. As for Aunt Liu... just go to the Buddhist hall to eat fast and chant Buddha, and repent for life. "

"Yes, thank you General for your kindness."

Aunt Liu prostrated herself on the ground and did not resist. Ling Yuqian and Ling Mufan knew that because of Aunt Liu's fault, even if they were not beaten to death with a stick, it would be fine to drive them out of the general's mansion.As for Ling Mingzhe, it was obvious that he was partial, but he did not object.

Watching Butler Ling bring Aunt Liu down, Ling Mingzhe looked at his two children, "Are you blaming me for favoring her?"

"There is love outside the law, my daughter understands."

Ling Yuqian's indifferent words directly touched Ling Mingzhe's heart. He was slightly moved, took a sip of tea, and suppressed the soreness in his throat.

Seeing him like this, Ling Yuqian felt unwillingness suddenly surged in her heart, she got up to leave, but when she reached the door, she couldn't hold back after all.

"If my father had been partial to me back then, I wouldn't have been so notorious."

Without looking back, she walked out of Canglan Garden.

Ling Mingzhe was really taken aback, looking at his daughter's frail back, remembering that day she was interrogated in three courts, and she had to face the accusations of everyone after a narrow escape, but he didn't say a word, and felt a little regretful.

It's a pity that regretting now is of no use.The betrayal of the concubine, the resentment of the children, looking at this unmarried yard, a feeling of failure arises spontaneously.

"elder sister?"

Ling Yuqian turned around the corridor and was about to return to the Fragrant Bamboo Garden through the arch. When she passed the garden, she was stopped by a soft voice.

Turning around, I saw Ling Yueying sitting there in a hexagonal pavilion not far away, wearing a blue gauze dress, with a gentle smile on her delicate face, the wind blew up her clothes, bringing up three thousand black silk, Coupled with the blooming flowers and trees behind him, it feels like a person in the painting.

"Is something wrong with my sister?"

Ling Yuqian stopped in her tracks and asked lightly, but she didn't seem to come forward for a chat.

Ling Yueying came out of the hexagonal gazebo, walked up to Ling Yuqian on lotus steps, leaned forward and said, "Is my sister going back to the yard? I wonder if my sister can come and sit down?"

When she spoke, she was cautious and nervous.Ling Yuqian took a deep look at her and nodded.

"You and my sister, naturally you should walk around more."

Ling Yueying nodded in agreement, and followed her back to the Fragrant Bamboo Garden to sit down.

Xiaozhi offered tea and snacks, and Ling Yuqian made a gesture of invitation.

Ling Yueying picked up the tea and took a sip. She only felt that the tea was so refreshing that she had never drunk it before, so she couldn't help but move her eyes slightly.

"Sister, it was my sister who was wrong in the past and did many wrong things. But at that time, Aunt Liu covered the sky with her hands, and my sister was forced to do so. Please forgive me."

Ling Yueying spoke, her face was full of remorse, she looked at Ling Yuqian's big Yingying eyes with mist.

Ling Yu smiled softly, and said softly, "What did my sister say? You and I are both sisters. How can sisters say they forgive or not?"

When she spoke, she was very calm, she didn't care about the dark color, but Ling Yueying was stunned.

It took a moment to react and smiled.

"What my sister said is very true, it's my sister who treats the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain!"

Ling Yuqian lowered her head to drink tea, and didn't say anything. There is really no forgiveness or forgiveness between the sisters, but this Ling Yueying, who came to show her favor at this time, is only asking for a peaceful life in this general's mansion That's all, some of the things you said don't really matter.

"I remember when I was young, my aunt often took you to my mother's room. At that time, you were pink and tender, very cute."

Ling Yuqian suddenly remembered the past. At that time, he was still the daughter of General Welfare.He often plays with Shui'er Yueying and the three of them.At that time, I didn't know anything, but I was very happy.
