Dinner was still early, only around four o'clock, and Luo Ziling's suggestion was that it would be better to rest for a period of time after dinner for treatment, so Ling Mingrui decided to wait for dinner before letting Luo Ziling treat.

There was still more than an hour to have dinner, and Ling Mingrui asked Luo Ziling to accompany him to play a game of chess.

Luo Ziling knew that Ling Mingrui wanted to talk to him alone, and he didn't refuse.

Xie Enhua and Ling Ruonan also knew that Ling Mingrui meant this, so they didn't bother them.

"I heard that you and Yang Qingye worked together to trap Chen Jiahai?" Before he could start to settle down, Ling Mingrui said the matter, "This matter has made Chen Yining and Yang Yunlin very angry, do you know what this means?"

Luo Ziling replied honestly: "There will be contradictions between the Chen and Yang families, and I, Yang Qingyin, and Yang Qingye will also become the target of public criticism." ”

"It seems that I really underestimated you," Ling Mingrui glared at Luo Ziling, and then motioned for him to go first.

Luo Ziling took the lead in black and got a star position.

Ling Mingrui occupied another star position, and continued to speak while playing chess: "You are much more scheming than your old man." ”

"Grandpa, many times it's not that I deliberately calculate anyone, but unintentionally in desperation. Also, this incident was not that we deliberately cheated Chen Jiahai, but that he calculated us first, and we came to the door only after we had the evidence, so he had to pay a certain price to calm our anger. Luo Ziling explained very seriously.

"Oh?!" Ling Mingrui, who didn't know the specific situation, was a little surprised, "What's the matter?"

After Luo Ziling explained the general situation, he said again: "Chen Jiahai has calculated that I have not calculated once or twice, this time he actually counted Yang Qingye into it, wanting to make our reputation stink, he didn't expect that we would track him down so quickly." ”

"It seems that you are going to provoke the conflict between the Ling family and the Chen family, right?" Ling Mingrui glared at Luo Ziling unkindly after he made another move, and warned: "I don't allow you to calculate the Ling family and do things with the banner of the Ling family. ”

"I've never done anything under the banner of the Ling family," Luo Ziling shook his head firmly, "I'm not the heir of the Ling family, so I won't act under the banner of the Ling family." ”

"But many people know that you are Ling Ruonan's son. ”

"Then I can't help it, I can't deny that I'm my mother's son, right?"

Ling Mingrui was suddenly a little angry, Luo Ziling's words were purely a scoundrel.

"Grandpa, in fact, I don't understand why so many people don't want me to live a good life and want to calculate me. I don't think I threatened anyone after I returned to Yanjing, and I didn't want to settle accounts with anyone, so I couldn't understand why they couldn't tolerate me so much, even my own uncle. Luo Ziling was very aggrieved.

Ling Mingrui had a cold face: "That day you scolded your uncle for being a scum who was not as good as livestock, do you think the son born to me and your grandmother is such a person?"

"I'm angry because I'm misunderstood," Luo Ziling honestly admitted his mistake, "My mother also said me, I won't scold him like that in the future, after all, he is my mother's brother, even if I don't recognize him as an uncle." But if he wants my life, I won't let him count me. I hope my grandfather can persuade him not to always want me to die, after all, I am also his nephew, dear. ”

Ling Mingrui was silent, but he didn't play chess for a while, and after being silent for a while, he finally made a stinky move.

When Luo Ziling saw the opportunity, he immediately counterattacked, besieging Ling Mingrui's big dragon as if he was pressing step by step.

Ling Mingrui frowned and thought for a while, then he took a shot.

However, after staring at the chessboard for a while, he said to Luo Ziling: "I advise you as a grandfather: act restraining yourself, don't go against the Ling family, and now the people who can help you are still the Ling family and those who depend on the Ling family." Without the help of these people, you and your mother would not have been able to stay in Yanjing. The Ling family is willing to help you, and you and your mother will also help the Ling family grow. I hope you can remember these words of mine, and don't often be unforgiving and make so much trouble. You are good in all aspects, if you keep a low profile and have your mother's care, you will definitely achieve great things in the future. I, as a grandfather, would love to see you accomplished. ”

"Thank you, grandpa!" Seeing the sincerity of what Ling Mingrui said, Luo Ziling thanked him.

However, in the game of chess, he did not give in because of Ling Mingrui's words, and he was still full of aggression in every piece.

Soon, Ling Mingrui found that the situation was not right, and the large area in the lower right corner of him was about to be captured by Luo Ziling.

After thinking about it, he could only admit defeat in the middle of the game.

"From the characteristics of your chess game, you can feel your character, very aggressive, and will not let go of opportunities," Ling Mingrui said earnestly when he motioned for Luo Ziling to accompany him in the next game: "Your father's personality is actually similar to yours, but you are less stubborn than him." Back then, I was willing to promise your mother to your father, but then your father's many obstinate behaviors blocked their back roads, and I couldn't help it. He has constant conflicts with Zhengping, and he also plays with your aunt's feelings, if it weren't for this, your uncle would not stand on the opposite side of him, and he would not have such an attitude towards you now. So, you can't learn from him, you have to know how to advance and retreat. ”

"Thank you grandfather for the reminder, I must keep it in mind," Luo Ziling thanked again.

From Ling Mingrui's words, he sniffed something strange again, the things of the past were far from being as simple as he understood now.

But the second game. It was still Luo Ziling who had the upper hand.

Originally, Luo Ziling's chess skills were higher than Ling Mingrui, who was mostly focused on government affairs, and he played well today, so after the middle game, he had a clear upper hand, and Ling Mingrui's brows couldn't help frowning.

But just when Ling Mingrui was thinking hard and trying to find a way to free his big dragon from his predicament, a few chess pieces held by Luo Ziling in his hand accidentally fell onto the chessboard, disrupting the layout of the chess pieces on the chessboard.

"Uh, grandpa, I'm sorry, I accidentally dropped a chess piece into it. Luo Ziling embarrassedly proposed, "Or, let's play another game, forget about this plate?"

Ling Mingrui didn't explain, but just glanced at Luo Ziling meaningfully.

Luo Ziling just smiled and didn't say anything.

"It seems that Old Man Luo has taught his grandson better than his son," Ling Mingrui didn't plan to play again, and after throwing the chess pieces in his hand back to the chess box, he stood up and sighed: "No wonder he dares to talk to me so hard." Hehe, the next time your grandfather comes to Yanjing, I will invite him to drink. No, I personally went over and drank with him. ”

Luo Ziling was a little stunned, he didn't expect Ling Mingrui to say such a thing, and he didn't understand the meaning of Ling Mingrui's words all of a sudden.

After Ling Mingrui walked out of the room, he stayed alone for a while, and then he roughly understood what he meant, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
