Looking at Zhao Ling'er who looked like a fairy sister in front of her, Suning could not bear the pain in her stomach. She couldn't wait to visit this little beauty that night. Slowly, Suning also noticed the abnormality of Zhao Ling'er. Soon
Realizing that this assassination operation was not that simple, Suning was not prepared to expose or question Zhao Ling'er. He believed that he would eat the "sugar-coated bullets" and then use the so-called "sugar-coated bullets"
"Tell us back the way we came.
Looking at the stunning little beauty who finally fell asleep in front of her, Suning smiled and yawned before getting up and getting dressed. However, she woke up Zhao Ling'er who was sleeping soundly. Zhao Ling'er hugged Suning from the back and said lazily,
"Your Majesty, why don't you sleep with me for a little longer?"
"No! I will come to accompany you tonight, so you can have a good sleep for a while." Suning suppressed her restlessness and still rejected the stunning beauty in front of her.
"Your Majesty, remember your promise to Ling'er that you must come over tonight!"
"Haha, you are my personal maid, I need you to serve me every day."
"Yes! Your Majesty."
After finally coaxing this clingy little goblin, Suning could easily get rid of the entanglement and leave. However, as soon as she walked out of the Yangxin Palace where she stayed last night, she saw Princess Huirou standing outside the palace with a livid face.
To herself, Suning looked at Princess Huirou with a somewhat embarrassed smile and asked, "Huirou, why didn't you go in even though you came here?"
"Humph! I'm afraid of disturbing your wedding ceremony." Princess Huirou couldn't help but said sarcastically.
"Hey, you already know what happened yesterday?"
"My lord, you keep saying that people with unknown origins are not allowed to enter Prince Ning's Mansion. Why did you bring back a female assassin as soon as you turned around?" Princess Huirou then asked angrily, feeling that the Suning in front of her was too double-minded.
Tagged.
"Huirou, in fact, she is not of unknown origin, because I also have a relationship with this Zhao Ling'er."
"Oh? Since you two have a connection, why did she come to assassinate you?"!
"Huirou, let's go have breakfast first, and then we'll chat while we eat."
When Princess Huirou heard the story of "Menghualu" told by Suning, she immediately realized that Suning and Zhao Ling'er were in the same boat. They were both forced into desperation by the ruthless and unjust Gu family, but Suning's resistance seemed even more serious.
Violent, and then the anger in my heart gradually calmed down.
"Your Majesty, since you and Zhao Linger are distant relatives, why did she come to assassinate you?" At this time, Princess Huirou suddenly felt a little confused.
"Because her family is controlled by Zhao Zongquan of Yuzhou, and she was also ordered by Jiangning Mansion from Zhao Zongquan."
"Ah? Zhao Zongquan? Isn't he the regiment trainer of Yuzhou now?"
"Hmph! Maybe it's because his sense of ownership is relatively strong, and subconsciously he regards Da Song Dynasty as belonging to both father and son."
"My lord, what are you going to do with Zhao Zongquan of Yuzhou?"
"Huirou, since you came to Jiangning Mansion, I have been working hard to cultivate your contact with government affairs, so I am ready to leave this matter to you."
"Ah? Your Majesty, I can't do it."
"Huirou, I believe you! Zhao Zongquan will definitely come to Jiangning Mansion in person soon. After all, we have captured his son Zhao Yingce and his brother-in-law Shen Congxing. As for how to deal with their family, it is up to you to make the decision."
"..."
…
Since the Sheng family settled in Bianjing City, they have immediately become the focus of public opinion in Bianjing City. You must know that the relationship with Prince Ning's family has brought a lot of honor to their family. Although many of the noble family members are currently As the emperor and empress visited the south, people still came to give gifts to the Sheng family every day.
"Mom, so many people give us gifts every day. Doesn't this have a bad impact on our family?" Looking at the people queuing up at the gate waiting to give gifts, Sheng Hong looked at Old Mrs. Sheng with pain and happiness and asked. road.
"Hmph! These people are giving gifts to Prince Ning. Do you really think they are going to our Sheng family?" At this time, Mrs. Sheng was very sober and asked her son in return.
"Mother, I know all this, but..." Sheng Hong didn't know these things, but he was always a little uneasy in his heart.
"Hey! Hong'er, from now on our Sheng family will always be closed to thank guests, and anyone who comes to give gifts will not be accepted." Then Mrs. Sheng made the next arrangements, knowing that there are some things that must not be done, after all, they are not worthy. Make decisions for King Ning.
"Yes! Mother." Sheng Hong first agreed with a face full of approval, and then said another thing with a smile, "Mother, my son wants to open a school of his own in our Sheng family, and he has invited Dongshan Famous Confucian scholars teach, so that you, mother, don’t have to work so hard every day.”
"That's fine! These skinny monkeys are indeed too dishonest every day, especially the two girls Mo Lan and Ru Lan. They don't look like the children of official families at all." Speaking of these annoying grandchildren, Sheng The old lady just couldn't help laughing and scolding. This was a very rare family happiness.
"Huh? Ru Lan and Mo Lan are both pampered by the eldest lady and Aunt Lin. Later, my son will ask Zhuang Xuexue to teach them some rules."
"Hmph! Scholars in the village teach knowledge, but as for the rules of the inner courtyard, they are difficult to impose."
"Eh? That's what mother said."
"Hong'er, when I was young and in the palace, I met a close friend named Kong. Now she has left the palace to teach etiquette to the children of officials and family members. I intend to invite her to our Sheng family and let her teach Mo Lan Follow some rules with Rulan." Mrs. Sheng did not object to Sheng Hong's proposal blindly, but instead gave her own solution.
"Thank you, mother." Sheng Hong immediately stood up and saluted with a grateful face, knowing that this was Mrs. Sheng's contribution to the entire Sheng family.
"Well, go ahead!"
Because of a magical encounter in Yangzhou that year, the inner conflicts of the Sheng family were miraculously hidden, and at least they were able to maintain harmony on the surface. In addition, Mrs. Sheng forcefully took over the children's education issues, and naturally... It can be regarded as giving Lin Zoshuang some serious warnings.
Although Lin Zoshuang still became Sheng Hong's concubine again, she was not as unscrupulous and crazy as in the original drama. You must know that she had lost the best chance to get rid of Aunt Wei, and Mrs. Sheng had already He noticed her sinister intentions and methods, and sent people to watch her every move all the time. Naturally, Lin Zongshuang had no choice but to find another way to disguise herself.
"Auntie, I heard that the old lady is going to bring all the children of the Sheng family to Shou'an Hall and will not let the children have more contact with their biological aunt." At this time, Zhou Xueniang hurriedly came to Lin Yushuang and explained.
"What? Is Ru Lan from the eldest lady's family like this too?" Sensitive Lin Zongshuang immediately asked with fear.
"Yes! I heard that the eldest lady had a big quarrel with the minister over this, and in the end she had to accept it obediently."
"Huh! If you are too old to die, you are a thief. I don't know why you are so nosy!"
"Aunt Lin, don't you dare say such nonsense." Zhou Xueniang on the side quickly stopped Lin Zongshuang's complaint, her eyes always indicating that the walls have ears.
"Humph!" Lin Zongshuang immediately remembered that there were servants given by Prince Ning in her yard, and naturally she stopped complaining with a look of displeasure on her face.
"Auntie, after all, Brother Feng and Fourth Sister have been raised by your side for so long, and they won't be separated from you when they grow up." Then Zhou Xueniang tried her best to persuade her in a nonchalant tone.
"Hey! I am worried that Chang Feng and Mo Lan will be wronged in Shou'an Hall. You must know that the food in Shou'an Hall has always been vulgar and crude." At this time, Lin Yushuang had to sigh helplessly.
"Auntie, don't worry about this. Even if the old lady is used to a simple life, the waiter will not agree to it."
…
The old emperor, who had returned to Bianjing at this time, had officially issued a decree to grant Chengyuan to Suning and Princess Huirou. The Marquis of Xiangyang also heard what Princess Pingning brought back, and naturally he had no intention of doing so.
Reasons for opposition and rejection, "Ping Ning, you are following His Majesty to Jiangning Mansion this time. What do you think of Prince Ning's conduct?"
"Father, I haven't had much contact with Prince Ning. I only had a few words with him when we were leaving and boarding the ship."
"Well, he controlled the entire Jiangnan area at a young age, and he was able to force officials and ministers to recognize his legitimacy. It seems that this Prince Ning is definitely not an easy man."
"Father, how will our family get along with Prince Ning in the future?" Princess Pingning then looked at the old Marquis in confusion and asked.
"Don't get too close! Just keep a certain distance."
"Yes! Father, why didn't you see Ting Wei?" Princess Pingning also agreed with the old marquis's decision, and then looked around in confusion and asked.
"Hey! Ting Wei is studying hard in his study! In addition, I gave Ting Wei some land and shops, originally thinking that he could have some expenses, but I didn't expect that this kid gave them all to his eldest brother Gu Tingyu, and also
It’s said that he doesn’t have any expenses on weekdays.”
"Oh? This is quite commendable. He has not forgotten his biological parents who gave birth to him."
"Well, now Ting Wei is studying books every day, preparing to take the scientific examination and get a gold medal."
"Father, the officials have ordered that the third generation of the Gu family is not allowed to participate in the scientific examination?" At this time, Princess Pingning couldn't help but remind her worriedly, knowing that this was an order personally issued by the angry officials.
"It's okay! For this reason, I have personally gone to the palace to see His Majesty. When I saw that Gu Tingwei had been adopted into our Xiangyang Mansion, I directly pardoned all Gu Tingwei's crimes."
"Oh? It seems that our officials are kind."
…
Although Sheng Hong is just a minister of the Ministry of Industry of a small family, his every move is still very eye-catching, especially after the old emperor came to visit the south, and the noble family members who followed the old emperor and the empress to have an eye-opening experience were all attracted to him.
The enthusiasm grew, and dignitaries came to visit the Sheng family almost every day, which immediately made the Sheng family become a popular upstart in Bianjing City.
"Mother, I heard that the Sheng family invited scholars from Da Ruzhuang to open a private school, so I want to go to the Sheng family's private school to study." Qi Yuanruo, the young prince of the Duke of Qi, came to Princess Pingning and asked.
"Sheng family? Is this the newly appointed minister of the Ministry of Industry, Sheng Hong?" Princess Pingning immediately asked with some sensitivity.
"Exactly! Mother, Zhuang Xuexue's knowledge is well known to everyone, so my son really wants to go and study."
"Yuan Ruo, the Sheng family has two daughters who are the concubines of Prince Ning. We, the Gu family, should not get too close to the Sheng family." At this time, Princess Pingning looked at her son with a wry smile and explained.
"Mom, I just went to the Sheng family's private school to study. What does it have to do with Prince Ning?" Qi Yuanruo has been protected by Duke Qi and Princess Ning since he was a child. He doesn't have the political sensitivity at all.
.
"this……"
"Mother, besides, now that Prince Ning is the crown prince of the Song Dynasty, there is no need for us to be too exclusive, right?"
"Yuan Ruo, our relationship with Prince Ning is too complicated. Some things are simply not clear."
"Princess, since Yuan Ruo wants to go to the Sheng family to study privately, let him go. It's not like he wants to get married to the Sheng family." At this time, the silent Duke of Qi persuaded with a smile.
"Hey! Okay! Prepare a generous apprenticeship ceremony later." Seeing that the Duke of Qi on the side agreed, Princess Pingning, who knew her son's temperament, also agreed.
"Thank you, father and mother."
…
Because her own mother was not poisoned by Lin Zongshuang, Sheng Minglan lived a very free and easy life in this life. However, the incident in Yangzhou made her a lot more cautious. "My dear, my brother and I will go there in the future."
Now that Shou'antang is here, will you miss me and my brother?"
"Haha, of course I will! But your grandmother can teach you a lot of things, so naturally she has to send you all there." Aunt Wei stroked her daughter Sheng Minglan's little head with a doting look on her face.
"Mom, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my brother." At this time, little Master Sheng Minglan looked at Aunt Wei and assured her.
"Haha, our family is the best tomorrow."
Aunt Wei is a calm and cold-tempered person, which is the biggest reason why Sheng Hong doesn't like her very much. After all, she doesn't have Lin Zongshuang's tricks and scheming. She is content to hide in her yard every day and raise two children.
Although she was also reluctant to let the two children go to Shouantang, the smart Aunt Wei knew that this was the best arrangement for the children.
"My dear, it's been a long time since the maid came to our hospital." After Sheng Minglan and Sheng Changsong were brought to the Shou'an Hall, the maid Xiaodie said a little aggrieved.
"Xiaodie, I'm not jealous of Auntie Lin. I just hope that Minglan and Changsong can grow up healthily." Auntie Wei smiled casually and said nothing about these bullshit.
I really don't like the idea of turning the stove upside down.
"My dear, you are too devoid of pursuits. Now that the old lady has taken away Miss Minglan and Master Changsong, life in our courtyard will be even more miserable in the future." At this time, the maid Xiaodie was a little angry.
He said without argument.
"This is the best arrangement for Minglan and Changsong. After all, it is much better to grow up with their grandmother than with me, a concubine."
"My dear, do you think that when Miss Minglan grows up, will she be favored by Prince Ning and become the concubine?"
"Don't talk nonsense! I never expected her to climb so high. I just hope she can find someone to love her."
