The question as it is right now do not make much sense. Those are the wordpress short links, if you are not happy with them, make your own....– Mark KaplunCommented Apr 29, 2017 at 4:43

do you want to display url like e.g. : site-url.com/post instead of site-url.com/?p=22 ??– Punitkumar PatelCommented Apr 29, 2017 at 5:44

@PunitPatel To appear like this: site-url.com/22 (without ?p=)– YoguCommented Apr 29, 2017 at 5:45

1@Yogu It's very simple just add %post_id% in setting > permalink > in post name. [![Please check image for solution][1]][1] [1]: i.sstatic.net/p3ovY.png– Punitkumar PatelCommented Apr 29, 2017 at 6:54

I am not sure how you removed ?p= from the link but you can use get_shortlink filter to override the shortlink. You can refer following article for more details.
http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-themes/how-to-display-wordpress-shortlinks-in-your-theme/
Reference to get_shortlink filter: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/get_shortlink/
Can you share some more details on how you removed the ?p= from the link?

I replace $shortlink = home_url( '?p=' . $post_id ); to $shortlink = home_url( '' . $post_id ); from wp_get_shortlink and i used it like this wp_get_shortlink(post_id), and it's wokring the issue when go to the link it's give me 404 not found.– YoguCommented Apr 29, 2017 at 4:36
@yogu You can add 
in permalink to get required structure. site-url.com/22 (without ?p=)
For specific post you can add following function and add specific condition for it :
add_filter( 'post_link', 'custom_permalink', 10, 3 );
function custom_permalink( $permalink, $post, $leavename ) {
// For shortlink condition
if ( 'Shortlink Condition here' ) {
$permalink = trailingslashit( home_url('/'. $post->ID .'/' ) );
}
return $permalink;
}
add_action('generate_rewrite_rules', 'custom_rewrite_rules');
function custom_rewrite_rules( $wp_rewrite ) {
// This rule will will match the post id in %post_id% struture
$new_rules['^([^/]*)-([0-9]+)/?'] = 'index.php?p=$matches[2]';
$wp_rewrite->rules = $new_rules + $wp_rewrite->rules;
return $wp_rewrite;
}

Sorry for this but sure I know that but what I need to do to remove ?p= for the short links only not the all posts links.– YoguCommented Apr 29, 2017 at 16:52

Wordpress redirects without the parameter: ?p. Regardless of whether it's pages or posts ...
For example: site.com/922 (post or page ID...), this should redirect.
If you want to change link one at the head of your site:
add_filter('pre_get_shortlink', function () {
return home_url('/') . get_the_ID();
}, 10, 3);
In wordpress docs: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/pre_get_shortlink/
I handled this with wp_redirect in a very easy way:
