Chapter 142: The Unexpected Incident
Zhang Ling followed the inner official and arrived at the door of the Imperial Study Room. After the inner official went in to report, Zhang Ling entered the Imperial Study Room.
"My minister, Zhang Ling, see Your Majesty." Zhang Ling bowed and bowed.
"Oh? My dear, please calm down, come here, give me a seat." Emperor Tianzheng said
After Zhang Ling thanked him, he sat on the chair and waited for Emperor Tianzheng to speak.
On the other hand, Emperor Tianzheng did not rush to speak after seeing Zhang Ling sitting down, but turned to the memorial.
When Zhang Ling saw this, he asked him for help but didn't ask for any questions for a long time. Could it be that he really caused some trouble?
Zhang Ling was puzzled and kept recalling what he had done recently in his mind, which made him feel a little distracted.
At this time, Emperor Tianzheng was observing Zhang Ling's expression. After seeing Zhang Ling's obvious appearance, he sighed in his heart, "It's indeed an old fox."
"It's really a waste of water. It seems that I have guessed my purpose. Well, I won't go around with you anymore."
Emperor Tianzheng didn't hesitate when he thought of this, and said directly, "Your dear, you're so fascinated?"
When Zhang Ling heard Emperor Tianzheng talk, he knew that he was in a wrong state just now, so he hurriedly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have had more chores last night, so I didn't sleep well."
When Emperor Tianzheng heard this, he was really busy with business. After all, that was only two million taels of silver, so it was normal that he couldn't sleep happily.
"It's okay, I'm not blaming you, my dear, I'm summoning you this time, I have something to ask you." Emperor Tianzheng said
When Zhang Ling heard this, he quickly stood up and said, "I must know everything."
"Okay, okay, don't be so reserved. I just heard an interesting thing about my dear, so I thought to ask you, I heard that my dear is going to make a fortune recently?" said Emperor Tianzheng.
When Zhang Ling heard this, he must have heard of the Xishantu incident, but at most it was a matter of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. How could he say that he had a great fortune?
So he said, "Report to Your Majesty, it's not a big deal, but Duke Yan really likes it. This is also the beauty of adulthood."
When Emperor Tianzheng heard this, he said it, okay, this is really better than singing. Do you want two million taels of beauty to be an adult?
If this is sold normally, would you still have to sell it for 5 million taels? It's so unscrupulous, and it's worthy of being a smiley tiger.
I can bite you silently, but I can't tell you anything wrong. I really underestimated you before.
"But my dear, I'm a little curious. As far as I know, the value of the creek map is only 300,000 taels at most."
"But Duke Yan spent money, far more than the value of the Xishantu itself. Why is it here?" Emperor Tianzheng said
"Your Majesty, this matter is actually very easy to understand. After all, it's hard to buy your heart with money? If I have any object I like, I'm afraid I'll be like Duke Yan." Zhang Ling said
"Haha, I'm a little fussy, okay, my dear, go back, I'll review the memorial." Emperor Tianzheng said
Zhang Ling felt strange when he heard this. The emperor brought him up, it turned out to be just for nothing? This emperor doesn’t have such a personality on weekdays?
Suo Ran and strange, but since the emperor had already said that, he naturally did not dare to neglect. After getting up and saluted, he withdrew from the imperial study room.
After Zhang Ling left, Emperor Tianzheng said to himself, "Zhang Ling, Zhang Ling, you are really not showing any water. I hope you didn't lie to me, otherwise..."
After Zhang Ling left the palace, the more he thought about it, the more something was wrong. The emperor summoned himself into the palace today, which was definitely not as simple as listening to nothing.
Something must have happened that he didn't know, and he immediately realized that it must have been his own Saburo who caused some trouble for him.
When he thought of this, he could no longer wait and urged the coachman to go back soon. After hearing what his marquis said, he naturally did not dare to slack off and soon returned to the marquis' mansion.
After returning to the mansion, the account age was not delayed at all, and he directly called his three sons to the study.
When Zhang Sheng heard that his father had entered the palace before, he knew that this matter could not be hidden, so he had already made preparations.
And Zhang Ye is naturally the same. Only Zhang Tao is confused and has no idea what happened.
The three of them quickly arrived outside the study room, looked at each other, pushed open the door of their father's study room, and walked in slowly.
When Zhang Ling saw that all his three sons had arrived, he said, "Do you tell me or ask me?"
Zhang Ye and Zhang Sheng looked at each other, and they didn't say anything tacitly. After hearing this, Zhang Tao carefully recalled his recent behavior and found that there was nothing out of the ordinary, and he didn't say anything.
Seeing that the three sons were not talking, Zhang Ling said, "Okay, since you don't plan to say it, then I'll ask."
"Sheng'er, I'll ask you, what's going on with Xishantu? Have you sold it to Duke Yan's Mansion?" Zhang Ling said
"Dad, I sold it to his family. Don't you know about this?" Zhang Sheng said
"I know? When did you tell me about my father?" Zhang Ling said
"Heaven and Earth are so conscience, you took me there last time the Lin family. You actually said you don't know?" Zhang Sheng said
"I naturally know for my father, but didn't I say before, should I replace it with something? Why did it turn into silver again?" Zhang Ling said
"Dad, this is how it is. The first one to order was to exchange items, but hasn't the Lin family been unable to take it out?"
"So when I made up my mind with them, the Lin family finally paid 1 million taels of silver. When my son saw that it was very suitable, I agreed to his family." Zhang Sheng said
"Well, so that's it. It's not that you are talking about you, Sheng'er, you said why are you still hiding it from being a father? It's so difficult for a father to be able to covet you that one hundred, wait, how many do you say? One million taels?" Zhang Ling said.
"Yes, Dad, one million taels, my elder brother and I have all the money divided?" Zhang Sheng said
"What? All the money has been distributed? You didn't even tell me about your father?" Zhang Ling said
"Haha, Dad, aren't you happy after selling it at a high price? I didn't have time to tell you, hehe." Zhang Ye said
"Is that so? I think you two bastards want to take it alone, right? I want to give my secret? Let me tell you, there is no door!" Zhang Ling said
"Dad, since you know everything, there is no need to hide it. Just say how much do you want? But we have agreed in advance? If you speak loudly, don't blame your son for being silent." Zhang Sheng said
