Yang Ning was immersed in these dozens of swords in the paintings all night, and tried them out from time to time. Before he knew it, the sky was already bright.
He knew that if someone was found secretly entering the yard, even if his current identity was Prince Jinyi, it would be bad after all. After all, the prohibition of admission to the hospital was a rule set by the old Marquis of Jinyi when he was alive. Not only did he not set an example, he would break the rules in the yard and would inevitably attract criticism.
He sorted out the dozens of drawing papers and stuffed them into his arms, thinking that the old papers were left there for many years and no one would care if they took them away.
After climbing over the wall and leaving the yard, I returned to the house I had prepared for myself, found silk cloth to wrap the dozens of pages of painting paper, and temporarily stuffed it under the bed. Just as I was cleaning it up, I heard a cry outside. Someone brought clean water to wash it. After Yang Ning washed it, someone came over to invite him for breakfast. When he arrived in the restaurant, Qi Feng and others were already waiting, but Gu Qinghan was not seen.
He knew that Gu Qinghan had been tired all these days, and probably was still resting. He caught Wei Tong beside him and asked, "The third lady hasn't gotten up yet?"
"When I replied to the prince's words, I have sent someone to call me. The third lady is still resting and I have not agreed. We are not easy to disturb me. Don't worry, the prince is preparing in the kitchen. When the third lady gets up, I will have breakfast." Wei Tong said respectfully.
There are also rules for the old house. Three meals a day are served on time, and the ranks and downs are orderly. Although Qi Feng and his men are guards of the Marquis’ Mansion, they are still servants after all. They could not eat with Yang Ning, but Yang Ning was still not adapted to this kind of life method of ranks and downs, so they asked the servants to deliver the breakfast of Qi Feng and others to the restaurant.
There are two tables in the old restaurant, one on the top and one on the bottom, but the top is obviously much more refined than the bottom and more expensive.
Yang Ning asked Qi Feng to sit at the top table with him, while the others were at the top table. When breakfast came, Yang Ning gave a scare and left, and then he whispered to Qi Feng: "You eat quickly, after eating, take two people to Jingzhou City."
Qi Feng was stunned and asked, "Jingzhou City?" He thought to himself that he had just arrived last night, why did he have to rush back early in the morning?
"You go find the Jiangling Prefect." Qi Feng said: "When he saw the Jiangling Prefect, he asked him how many people he sent to escort Taxun to the capital. If he sent people seriously, you would bring two soldiers who escort Taxun at that time, and I would like to ask in person."
"Ah?" Qi Feng said in surprise: "Criminal, the tax silver... has the tax silver been sent?" He brought people to escort Gu Qinghan back to Jiangling during this trip, of course he also knew it was for the tax silver delay.
"You don't need to ask more." Yang Ning whispered: "Can you know the prefect of Jiangling?"
Qi Feng nodded immediately and said, "The Prefect of Jiangling is a good official who is honest and honest. He was recommended by the general back then, but in order to benefit Jiangling's hometown, he specially recommended a smart and capable official to come to Jiangling to serve as the Prefect." He lowered his voice and said, "I have seen this prefect twice. I don't know if he still remembers me, but as long as he mentions the Marquis of Jinyi, he will not give face and will definitely cooperate carefully."
"That's great." Yang Ning whispered: "In addition, the old house's chief supervisor heard that he had a stroke paralysis, and is now in Jingzhou City. If this matter is true, the prefect of Jiangling would not know nothing. You can ask the prefect to help you find the chief supervisor. No matter what, we have been working hard for the old house and the Qi family for many years. We cannot ignore it. You can take me to visit the chief supervisor first."
Qi Feng said, "Don't worry, prince." He whispered: "Do you have any other orders?"
Yang Ning pondered for a moment before asking softly: "Do you know the background of the chief executive?"
"I only know that the eldest general manager's hometown is in Jiangxia, but he is of the same clan as the Qi family. He seemed to have had contacts with the old marquis in his early years. If there were any contacts, I didn't know." Qi Feng whispered: "However, the eldest general manager came to surrender to him, and the old marquis immediately asked him to stay and let him be the chief manager of the old house. The old marquis trusted the eldest general manager very much. Over the years, the eldest general manager has also managed the old house in an orderly manner."
"Do you know the situation of his family?" Yang Ning asked: "Since we are the chief manager of the old house, we can't know nothing about his family affairs?"
Qi Feng shook his head and said, "I don't know. No one in the mansion has ever mentioned this." He asked in a low voice: "Criminal, do you think something is wrong? Otherwise, I will send someone to Jiangxia to find out the situation. Jiangxia and Jiangling are not far away. They will go on a fast journey day and night, and it will only take three or four days to go back and forth."
Yang Ning thought for a while before saying, "It's good, but there's no need to be a good person to do this. Send someone to Jiangxia quickly to find out the situation in the head of the chief manager...!"
Qi Feng nodded and said, "I'll make arrangements immediately." He got up and was about to leave. Yang Ning stopped, "If you don't eat enough, you can't have the energy to work. Have a meal first."
Qi Feng touched his head and said to the guards: "Everything is faster, there is still something to do."
Yang Ning took a few bites casually, but he didn't feel hungry. When he went out, he happened to see Wei Tongzheng and a servant whispering not far away, frowned and walked over and asked, "What are you doing sneakily?"
Wei Tong hurriedly smiled and said, "The prince has finished eating? He is talking about the madman outside."
"Crazy?" Yang Ningqi said: "What kind of madman?"
"That's the case. Master Cheng said he would come back last night, so I kept guarding the gate. In the middle of the night, I didn't hear any movement." Wei Tong explained: "Mr. Cheng thought that Master Cheng had something to do, so he was about to rest. Before he rested, he went out to take a look and found that there was a hairy thing lying there at the base of the wall outside the door. He scared me at that time and thought it was a wild dog."
"What a furry thing?" Yang Ning frowned.
Wei Tong hurriedly said, "Yes, but the old slave looked carefully with the lantern and found out that it was a person. The man was lying under the wall and fell asleep, saying that he was a wandering beggar, but the man was wrapped in a black bulb...!"
"It's him!" Yang Ning's body was shocked and immediately thought of the ugly man. Could it be that the ugly man wearing a black cloak had followed him here? But he and Gu Qinghan were whipping up yesterday and had already left the ugly man on the way. How could he know the way to follow? It was not like a dog's nose, smelling the smell.
"Take me to see where he is now?" Yang Ning asked as he walked.
Wei Tong limped and led the way, saying, "Criminal, that's a lunatic. Lao Nu thought he would leave early this morning, but when he opened the door, he was still lying there. Lao Nu gave him two steamed buns, but he picked up the steamed bun and smashed people. Lao Nu could only send someone to drive him away with a stick. But now he ran back and was still at the door."
Yang Ning said coldly: "If he doesn't eat steamed buns, you won't give him some other food? I see that there are a lot of snacks on the dinner table this morning. Wouldn't you just give them some, why should you drive people with sticks?"
Wei Tong said awkwardly: "Criminal, those dim sums are not something that everyone can enjoy. This is because the prince and the third wife are here. The kitchen was made overnight last night. It is now relatively remote and cannot compare to the capital. There is nothing good to do. Only these dim sums are still a good place..."
"Don't talk nonsense, please pick up some of the snacks." Yang Ning said angrily: "I will tell you and you will also inform others in the house. If a beggar or a person in distress arrives here in the future, if anyone dares to drive people with a stick, I will peel him off. Everyone has time to get in trouble, and it is only one who can help you. You are so old, and you don't understand this truth?"
Wei Tong obviously didn't expect Yang Ning to scold him mercilessly for a mad guy. He was a little frightened. However, he didn't know that Yang Ning had ever been living on the street. Although the time was short, the short experience still made Yang Ning feel the miserable and miserable of those people.
After leaving the gate of the old house, he saw that it was the ugly man wearing a black cloak and leaning against the wall. When he heard the footsteps, the ugly man immediately turned his head and looked slightly frightened on his face. When he saw Yang Ning clearly, there was a silly smile on his ugly face. He got up, ran to Yang Ning, and reached out and said, "Hungry... Eat... Hungry..."
Seeing his unkempt face, Yang Ning felt pity in his heart. He was a person who was a person who was strong when encountering the strong when encountering the weak when encountering the weak, and said with a smile: "Why are you following?" He turned around and took a large plate, which was decorated with very delicate snacks, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to eat?"
The style of these snacks and the fragrance emitted naturally make people feel appetite greatly. The ugly man with black buckles had already reached out to grab them, but Yang Ning flashed his arm. The ugly man grabbed him empty-handed and was about to worry, Yang Ning smiled and said, "Look at your hands, it's dusty. Eating like this will make you sick. If you want to eat these snacks, just listen to me, go in with him first, ask him to wash it for you, and then change your clothes. After cleaning, all these snacks will belong to you. Do you think it's okay?"
Of course, Yang Ning would not think it was just a coincidence that this black and ugly man chased him here. Perhaps this weird ugly man had other unknown special abilities besides the speed of a cheetah, so he would follow him. Since he was chasing him, he would at least help him clean up.
The ugly man was quite anxious and repeated the two sentences, circled around Yang Ning, just wanting to get snacks.
Yang Ning's face darkened and he said, "Are you disobedient? If you disobey, you will not get a piece of snack. From now on, I will not give you food."
The ugly man with black cloak obviously understood Yang Ning's words, and a look of fear appeared on his face. Yang Ning handed the plate back to Wei Tong, pointed at Wei Tong and said to the ugly man: "If you go in with him now, he will find someone to clean up, wash it and change into clean clothes, and he will give you food."
The ugly man with black hair looked at Wei Tong, suddenly nodded repeatedly, and made a "yes, yes, yes, yes" sound from his mouth.
Although Wei Tong is just a guardian at the old house, he claims that he is much higher than the ordinary guardian. Seeing the ugly man with a black buckle look sloppy, he is a little disgusted. However, the prince did not dare to disobey him when he spoke, let alone being scolded by the prince. At this moment, he tried to smile as much as possible and said to the ugly man with a black buckle: "Come with me, I will take you to wash."
Yang Ning ordered: "This guy seems to have not been cleaned for a long time. Wash him more, and then find him a suitable dress to change. Don't be too good, just wear it clean and comfortable." After a pause, he said: "Let him stay in the house for the time being. Please let the house take care of food and clothing first, and make arrangements before I return to Beijing."
"Old I obey the order." Wei Tong was suspicious and asked carefully: "Criminal, have you seen him before? This guy seems to know you?" Seeing Yang Ning glanced at him coldly, he didn't dare to ask more, and led the ugly man with a black cloak into the house.
Yang Ning ordered that the people in the house really dared not be negligent. They took the boss's efforts to change six or seven buckets of water to roughly clean the ugly man and changed into a suitable dress. The ugly man with a black cloak was thinking of snacks, but he let the people in the house clean it. He just changed his clothes, but the black cloak was not taken away by anyone, so everyone let him go.
After Qi Feng and others had breakfast, they set off separately, leaving three people behind, and he took them away from the old house. Naturally, the others in the house did not dare to ask more questions.
It was noon, but Gu Qinghan was still missing. Yang Ning thought to himself why Gu Qinghan stayed in bed for so long today, and didn't eat all night, and didn't know if she was hungry. She sent the maid to call her twice, but she never agreed.
Gu Qinghan didn't get up here, and Qi Cheng never returned to the old house. Yang Ning could only take out the drawing paper from his house first. Before he knew it, it was noon and packed up and went out. When he learned that Gu Qinghan had not moved yet, Yang Ning felt something was wrong. He found the maid who served Gu Qinghan to sleep last night and asked her to lead him to Gu Qinghan's yard. Another maid was waiting in the yard. Yang Ning entered the yard and knocked on the door. The door was tied from the inside, but he did not listen to anyone's agreement.
Yang Ning screamed a few more times, but there was no movement. He knew that Gu Qinghan had been sleeping all night and should have recovered his energy. Even if he was still a little tired, he would not have been able to sleep so hard. He felt a slump and asked, "The third lady has not come out since last night?"
"Return to the prince, I served the third wife to take a shower and change clothes last night, and then went to bed to rest. I was going to serve her inside, but the third wife said no, so she personally tied her door from inside." A maid said, "The two of me took turns to be on duty in the yard last night, so as not to find someone if the third wife had something to do. She called her two or three times today, but the third wife never agreed."
Yang Ning pondered slightly, suddenly his face changed slightly, he took out the cold blade, and in the surprised eyes of the two maids, he simply opened the door. After opening the door and entering, he turned around and asked in a deep voice: "Which room is the third lady?"
