13. Chapter 13 The Terrible Phoenix Man
By chance, he met the simple Jiang Luo. This was an excellent opportunity for him to climb into a wealthy family, so Ling Zhongqing almost tried his best to pursue her.
But he was completely incompatible with Jiang Gong's family. The most important thing was that Jiang Gong secretly investigated him and found that he also had problems with his character. So he strongly opposed this marriage.
But Jiang Luo wanted to be with the young and promising Ling Zhongqing. When Mr. Jiang objected, she committed suicide.
The final result was that Duke Jiang surrendered and married his precious daughter to Ling Zhongqing, whom he despised.
After their wedding, Ling Zhongqing repeatedly asked Duke Jiang to arrange an official position for him in Kyoto, but Duke Jiang refused.
In his opinion, Ling Zhongqing's character was not suitable for being an official. For the sake of his daughter's happiness, he would rather lock him up at home and let him squander all the family wealth than let him be an official and rely on others in the capital.
He has a reputation for doing evil.
Because of Jiang Gong's insistence, Jiang Luo also had trouble with his father because of this.
But the facts proved that Jiang Gong's original approach was correct.
Because he couldn't help his daughter's requests and crying, Jiang Gong finally arranged for Ling Zhongqing to have a ninth-grade job in the capital.
But while the official was idle, Ling Zhongqing was not idle.
After becoming a Beijing official, his salary was not much, so he used Jiang Gong's connections and money to support himself. Finally, with his deliberate efforts, he joined the Queen's party. He often secretly helped the Queen do some shady things below.
After the prince grew up, he naturally became a confidant of the prince's party.
Therefore, under the promotion of the Queen, Ling Zhongqing was quickly promoted from the ninth rank Zhima Official to the current deputy fourth rank Jizhou Magistrate.
Although his official position was not high, in Jizhou where Emperor Tiangao was far away, he was a local emperor.
When he was assigned to be the county magistrate in a certain county in Jizhou, he completely forgot about each other's vows.
Jiang Luo, who originally thought that after breaking away from his father's control, would be able to fly with Lang Jun, he finally saw how terrifying the Phoenix Man was.
Along the way, Ling Zhongqing gained more and more official positions, but he betrayed his vow to only love Jiang Luo in his life, and successively hired his subordinates, Han Feiyi, the daughter of the current magistrate of Lanlin City, and Fang Yunshan, a sycophant, the daughter of the current county magistrate of Li County.
As a concubine, there are also twenty-five beauties who fill the house.
Ling Zhongqing, who became the magistrate of the state, began to dislike Jiang Luo. Especially because Jiang Gong was dissatisfied, suppressed and disliked him before, he put all his years of grievances on Jiang Luo. He usually ignored her and ignored her.
Ignore it.
Although Jiang Luo is the main wife, she doesn't get much talk in the Ling family, and those concubines treat her in a submissive manner.
Jiang Luo gave birth to two children for Ling Zhongqing. Her brother, Ling Xiye, was the eldest, and she was the fourth. Aunt Han had three children, the second, Ling Xitai, the third, Ling Qingyun, and the fifth, Ling Qingwei. Aunt Fang had only one daughter who was the youngest.
Ling Qinglei.
She and her brother are direct children, and they have a strong maternal backing. Their status in the family should be much higher than those who were born by concubines.
However, due to Zuo Xiang's dissatisfaction with Ling Zhongqing, his official position stayed at the position of deputy fourth-rank magistrate ten years ago and never changed again.
Ling Zhongqing did not dare to retaliate openly against the left prime minister, nor did he dare to do anything to Jiang Luo, so he always treated her and his brother harshly.
