Chapter 56：

Shao Shang only hesitated for nine and three-quarters of a second, and then changed his clothes, holding the hand of the lotus room and exiting the side hall with a smile, compared to the pale maid, Shao Shanglian The fingertips didn't tremble.

Mrs. Xiao said that there are not many people who can really help each other, one is enough. This sentence is very reasonable. Shaoshang is unwilling to lose a powerful help in the future because of his stubbornness. She can naturally find all kinds of clever excuses to shirk, and even go with Lou Yao, but for someone as powerful as Ling Budo, the best way to get along is to be as sincere as possible, rather than using a bunch of 'smart' tricks .

Shao Shang was still hesitating about how to get there. Who knew that the method provided by Ling Budo was simple and effective. He only used two ordinary thin silk cloaks to cover the heads and faces of the master and servant. Just go. There are many little girls in the park today, and the servants passing by will not come forward to question them. After walking a few steps, the master and servant came to a remote road between flowers and trees, and saw a tall and slender young man in brocade clothes with his hands on his back, standing there quietly alone. He heard footsteps behind him and turned around.

Shao Shang sighed in his heart, but with a very standard smile on his face, he bowed and bowed: "I don't know Master Ling..."

Before he finished speaking, Ling Budo suddenly said: "Did you come here when you heard me looking for you, or did you come here after your maid relayed my third sentence?"

Shao Shang smiled stiffly, and immediately said with a serious face: "Lord Ling not only saved the little girl's life, but also helped many times. With such kindness and kindness, the little girl naturally..."

"Well, then you came here only after hearing the third sentence." Ling Budo said in a hurry.

Short quotient:…

"You keep your words of kindness unforgettable, but what about your actions?" Ling Budo still had a smile on his face, and his words were already cold, "It can be seen that it is useless to talk to you, you have to listen to it. You are willing to threaten words. That's how you treat your benefactor."

Sir, you look so good-looking, and you are so young... ah no, and you are so young, how can I... I dare to come together at will! You don't know, when you were standing across from you just now, the little girls in the hall went crazy It's like, if you let others see me with you, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the sunrise tomorrow morning!"

Ling Budoubt said: "Well, you can see the sunrise on weekdays?"

Short business again:…

"Zhang Qian said, in those few mornings you had to lead someone to set out the convoy, and when you got up and came out, your face was even uglier than when you saw ten gangs of bandits. Are you afraid you don't get up early?" With a smile.

Shao Shang’s reasoning was because of the discomfort of the journey, but considering that the Chengfu motorcade had been departing from the capital for more than a month, this excuse was too far-fetched, so he had to slander: “General Zhang looks like Very taciturn..." Why such a broken mouth!

"The young lady also seems to be very grateful." Ling Budo said lightly.

Shao Shang's anxious forehead sweated: "I am grateful! The life-saving grace of that day is vivid in my eyes, I, I..." In a hurry, she opened up again, "Lord Ling , people who are really heroes and men are all kind of people who don't want to repay!"

"Did I tell you to go up the mountain of swords and go down to the sea of ​​​​fire. But it is impossible to condescend at first sight. If I am really in trouble in the future and come to your door for help, I am afraid that you will not even be able to get in the door of your house."

Ling Buzhuosheng's face is unparalleled, but his style of speech is as sharp as a sword, showing no mercy.

Less business and anger, and finally meet the opponent, willing to be defeated. She bowed her head and said, "Lord Ling, the little girl is wrong, really wrong! I should have rushed over as soon as I heard your call." This is really an epoch-making scene. Even in elementary school, high school, and university, she never admitted her fault so sincerely.

"What if there is another time?" Ling said without doubt.

Shao Shang handed over to the sky and said loudly, "Just tell the bad guys to cook and eat me!" This was the most terrible oath to her.

Ling Budo stared at the girl quietly for a while, but her smile was gloomy: "You walk with me for a while."

Shao Shang wiped his sweat, nodded quickly, and stepped forward to accompany him.

My son-in-law is also considered to be courageous, not only dares to argue and deny, but also dare to bet on foolish curses.

This road between flowers and trees is very secluded and winding. Ling did not suspect that he was tall and had long legs, but he deliberately slowed down his pace so that the girl could walk with him. Shao Shang walked beside him, looked sideways and looked up, only to feel that his shoulders were broad, his back extended like a ridge, and the outline of his face was deep and handsome. He walked slowly without saying a word, his brows furrowed, as if he was very preoccupied, like a silent **** in the ancient times in the oil painting.

Although he is the same age as Yuan Shen, Shaoshang always feels that he is older than them. She dares to fight Yuan Shen, but she never dares to make trouble in front of Ling Budo. Probably because he is a real 'mature' man.

No matter how slow you go, there will be an end. "Lord Ling, there is no way out." Shao Shang was taken aback.

It turns out that this flower tree is a dead end alley. Turn left and it ends. There is a small carved stone table in the shape of a tiger, plus two stone piers.

Ling Budo hummed softly: "Yeah, it's the end." He was silent for a moment, then lifted his clothes and sat on the stone pier, "You sit with me for a while."

The two were speechless, and before they sat for a moment, Ling Budo said in a deep voice, "Someone is here."

! But here is a dead end, there is nowhere to escape.

"Don't be afraid, you and your maid hide there." Ling Budo pointed to the flower wall in the corner.

After a while, I heard hurried footsteps, Shao Shang looked through the thick branches and leaves, and saw two girls in Chinese clothes running over, hand in hand, panting, it was Wang Ji and Lou Gang.

"Ichiro, is it really you?!" Wang Ji was overjoyed, tidying up her clothes and hair, "The maid of Shicai's family said that she saw you coming here, and I still don't believe it. Woolen cloth."

Ling Budo gave them a cold look, eyes like sharp swords, Lou Zhang was too frightened to speak.

Wang Hao immediately pulled the handle on the floor, motioned her to shut up, then turned her head and smiled: "It must be the maid who misunderstood, Shirou is hiding here alone."

Ling Budoubt said: "Since I know that I am hiding here, the two of you will leave."

Wang Ji and Lou Gang were very embarrassed and didn't know what to say, but finally Wang Ji responded quickly and smiled: "My aunt has been talking about you recently, Eleven Lang, saying that it's been another year, you She is still alone, so she is very worried about it."

"Is this what the Queen said?" Ling Budo said coldly, "If the Queen didn't say this, Madam Wang would be guilty."

Wang Li people were all stupid, and hurriedly said: "No no no, I accompany the palace every day, although my aunt didn't say it, but I know what she means! Aunt and His Majesty are looking forward to ten Ichiro is marrying a wife!" Her aunt would never push her niece to take the blame.

"Who to marry? Lady Wang, are you?" Ling Budo didn't even move.

Wang Li blushed immediately, she meant it, but she was too embarrassed to say it, who knew that Lou Gang hurriedly said: "Why not! Extraordinary…”

"I like beautiful ones." Ling Budo suddenly interrupted.

Wang Ji was stupid, Lou Gang's mouth was quick, and said, "Isn't sister Aji beautiful?"

Sure enough, Ling Budo asked Wang Ji directly: "Do you think you are very beautiful?"

Wang Li suddenly felt cold and humiliated. She thought that she was not bad, but she couldn't stand such cross-examination.

Lou Zhang knew that he had made a blunder, but he refused to admit defeat: "Eleven Lang's words are bad, marry a wife and marry a virtuous man..."

Ling Budo ignored the little girl and asked Wang Ji directly again: "Do you think you are very virtuous?"

Wang Li couldn't bear it any longer, she was too ashamed, and stomped away with tears in her eyes. Lou Zhang glared at Ling Budo angrily and ran away.

When they ran away, Ling Budo said, "Come out, don't hold back."

The lotus room stepped out first, and supported the smiling, flushed-faced daughter of her own, with the mark left by her hand firmly covering her mouth. Shaoshang was not a good person in the first place, and Wang Jie had never dealt with him, so he didn't show any pity. After Lou Zhan tried to humiliate himself that day, although Lou Yao also scolded his cousin, Shao Shang felt that it was only now that he was truly relieved!

After a long time, Shaoshang laughed enough, then calmed down and sat upright at the stone table.

"Tell me about your childhood." Ling Budo looked gentle.

Shao Shang suddenly looked cold. She didn't like to recall her childhood the most: "When I was a child, I was unlucky, and there is nothing else to say."

Ling Budo quietly looked at the indifferent and sharp eyes of the girl, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly: "It's a coincidence, I was unlucky when I was a child, and I have nothing to say."

"Then why don't you talk about the interesting anecdote about Master Ling's study of civil and martial arts." Shaoshang had nothing to say.

Ling Budoubt said: "Xiwen and martial arts are both very hard, learn hard, practice hard, what interesting things can be said."

Shao Shang said silently: What a coincidence, she also felt that studying was very hard and not interesting at all.

The two sat silently for a while, until the lotus room on the side was about to cry, this silence is so scary!

"What are you going to do in the future?" Ling Budoubt said, "I mean, except for getting married."

Shao Shang's eyes lit up, she has a lot of plans: "I want to bring together many doctors and compile everyone's medical skills and knowledge into a book, which may benefit the world. I also want to transform Those cumbersome farming tools can not only save manpower, but also make more grains. You don't know, it's really hard to cultivate the fields purely by manpower. Many farmers are sick when they are young, and they can't stand upright before they are old. Come on. Also, I also want to build a workshop, it doesn't have to be very big, I drew some interesting things, and I want to see if I can build it..."

She stopped talking, because Ling Budo was looking at her for a moment. Shao Shang said embarrassedly: "The little girl is too arrogant, making adults laugh."

Ling Budo shook his head, as handsome as a jade mountain: "Go on."

Shao Shang realized that he had lost his mind just now, and quickly turned back to his seriousness, saying: "There are husbands and children, and filial piety to the elders."

Ling Budo's face turned cold, his white right hand lightly buckled on the stone table: "Vulgar!"

Shao Shang spit out: "Just now you scared my maid and said you want to marry me! Now I think I'm vulgar!"

Ling Budo said solemnly: "Marrying me will not be vulgar, marrying others will be vulgar."

Shao Shang covered his sleeves and laughed, his smiling eyebrows curved, more and more like a festive jade doll.

Ling Budo raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "How do you know I'm frightening, maybe I really mean it."

Shao Shang sighed helplessly and said: "Lord Ling, no matter how busy you are, there will be no time before today to mention the marriage to Your Majesty. Since you didn't mention it, you have no intention of it. Don't make fun of the little girl."

"...You're right." Ling Budo lost his expression, and suddenly said, "Maybe I only like to steal incense and jade."

Shao Shang blinked: "Well, then, Your Majesty may be happy." It is best to steal incense and jade to produce results.

Ling Buduo was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it, he laughed loudly. After a while, he smiled and said: "You dare to mention Your Majesty, I didn't settle the account with you. You went to get engaged, but Caused me to be scolded by His Majesty, what's more, you need to save your heart, when you are old, you will find your beloved little girl by yourself, but you are not enlightened', and you also scolded me for being unfilial!"

Shao Shang imagined the scene, feeling inexplicably out of breath, pursed his lips and smiled.

Ling Budo saw her smiling happily, and said word by word: "Young Shang, you are the most enthusiastic and courageous little girl I have ever met, no matter what difficulties and obstacles lie ahead, You always have to go over the thorns."

When he saw the girl's face full of disbelief, he added: "I grew up in the palace since I was a child, and I have seen many women who are very enthusiastic and brave, but they are enthusiastic about fame and fortune, and brave for power. Unlike you, that's what you think..." He hated the person who worked hard in his life the most, but he didn't hate it when he heard and witnessed all kinds of positive calculations of the girl in front of him.

Shao Shang is a little puzzled, is this complimenting her. She laughed dryly and said, "There are people in the palace who are indifferent to fame and fortune."

Ling Budo smiled faintly: "Except for those who can't leave, who are really indifferent to fame and fortune, what are they doing in the palace."

The young businessman understood this inexplicably, and whispered: "No one loves fame and fortune, but I am not likable by nature, and some paths are inherently impossible."

Ling Budo smiled and said, "Who said that. You have already won the favor of many people."

Shao Shang shook his head: "No, if others knew my true temperament, few people would like me." Anything she said would be exposed by him, it is better to tell the truth Woolen cloth.

Ling Budo's smile slowly faded away, her eyes fixed on the girl, she was lost: "It's a coincidence again, if others really know me, I'm afraid not many people will like me."

"Lord Ling is joking, you should ask the little girls in Mandu City about this, they will never agree!" Shao Shang clapped his hands and laughed.

Ling Budo said seriously: "It's true. It's you, if you know more about me in the future, I'm afraid you will hate me."

Shao Shang was stunned.

She finally understood why such a beautiful man always felt very difficult, because she didn't understand this man.

She understands Father Cheng, understands Yuan Shen, and Lou Yao is an open book, but she can never see Ling Budo.

The little girl is inexplicably grateful, but I, I…”

, of course you have to be loyal and have no other intentions... don't laugh, you, you..."

Such a line of upright Ling Ran ended with Ling Budo’s soft laughter as he fell on the stone table.

Shao Shang was furious: "Lord Ling, you, you... You are too despised!"

Ling Budo stood up and smiled slightly: "I know, you are a loyal woman, go on!"

Shao Shang sat on the stone pier with his back on his back and refused to say any more.

"Don't be afraid." Ling Budo stopped smiling, he knew what the girl was thinking, and said softly, "This should be the last time I will meet you alone."

Shao Shang hurriedly turned around: "Are you going to travel again? Does it matter where you are going to fight this time?"

"That's not the case. You're getting married, so you must avoid suspicion in the future."

Huh? ! - Shaoshang Xindao, so you know to avoid suspicion.

Ling Budo looked at the girl with a gentle expression: "Didn't you always want to go outside with Ayao, don't worry, I'll find a way for you, find a suitable place, don't leave for the sake of it The **** of the family, you are willing to go to any poor mountains and rivers, you can't stand it."

Shao Shang lowered his head, feeling indescribable in his heart. Then again, he had seen everything.

Ling Budo stood up, looked at the lush flowers and trees around him, and said, "I was just across from you, and I vaguely heard a few flute sounds. When I think about it, I have never listened to it well. You play the flute, and everyone says you play well."

His tone was calm, but Shaoshang felt sad inexplicably, and hurriedly said: "Lord Ling wants to hear it, I'll blow it to you."

Ling Bu doubted that he was very happy, then shook his head and said: "Forget it, don't listen to it. If you have heard it once and want to listen to it, it will be troublesome. Well, I have already said that, you I'll go back now, and I'll sit for a while."

Shao Shang opened her lips and stopped, in fact, she didn't know what to say, so she respectfully got up and saluted, then led the lotus room away, took a few steps and looked back, Ling Bu Suspect is looking up at the flower tree sideways, wondering what she is thinking about—

With the gentle petals and the breeze, the handsome man in front of him seemed to have never existed.

After a glance, Shaoshang turned and walked away, never looking back.
