In the next few days, regardless of whether they were familiar or not, Yingpan visited the high gates of Star City one after another.
"I don't know how decent this is!" Some old scholars were a little indignant when they saw this.
This is obviously against the rules.
Under normal circumstances, if a wealthy family wants to visit their home, they should first post a message to the other party, and only then can they visit at the agreed time after getting a response from the owner.
However, Princess Ning clearly barged in without saying hello.
But this time, except for those stubborn old academics, almost no one had any objections.
Even when they saw the door of Prince Ning's Mansion open in the morning, countless people took pleasure in guessing which wealthy family Princess Ning would visit today.
And whenever they see Ying Pan's car driving towards a certain alley, the houses on the street will open their doors early to welcome her, regardless of whether she will be visiting their homes.
Imperial Palace, Changchun Palace.
"What is she going to do?"
The queen who received the news from outside was so angry that she almost smashed a vase.
"Do you still have ancestral rules in your eyes?"
Logically speaking, the royal wife who has just entered the royal jade plate should enter the palace as soon as possible to meet the queen and Concubine Qing.
As a result, Yingpan seemed to have forgotten his identity and kept wandering around outside the palace.
cough!
The maid next to her couldn't help coughing.
"Your Majesty, Princess Ning already handed over the notice for entering the palace the day after she returned to Xingji City..."
It was just that the queen wanted to show off the sudden appearance of the concubine's daughter-in-law, so she threw the post aside and never replied.
The queen was so angry that she was dizzy, and it took a long time to recover.
"Take the note and summon Princess Ning to the palace tomorrow morning!"
If Yingpan continues to spin like this, she will probably spread the word all over Xingji City.
This morning, a group of busybodies gathered on the street outside Prince Ning's Mansion. You and I made bets on who Princess Ning would visit today.
"Let's take over Uncle En's Mansion." Someone clasped their fingers, "Prince Hou Bo and Princess Ning of the Six Ministers' Mansion have already visited most of them, so it's their turn anyway."
"The queen's natal family? I think Princess Ning will never go."
"Why?"
Tsk tsk.
"Don't forget, everyone. A few years ago, Prince Ning sent his spirit back to his hometown. When he first arrived in Xingji City, he knocked out the front teeth of Third Young Master Sun in public, which greatly ruined Uncle Cheng En's face..."
"I see."
"If you don't go to Uncle Cheng'en's Mansion, then you'll have to go to the generals' mansions."
For example, Wei Junqian's Cavalry General's Mansion, Yuan Xingwen's Cavalry General's Mansion, and Tian Hongyan's Cavalry General's Mansion from the Yanhui Army...
Everyone is discussing.
squeak~
The gate of the palace finally opened as expected, and a familiar car drove out and headed directly towards the palace.
Phew~
The entire Star City seemed to be relieved.
Many close friends simply gathered together to discuss it.
hey-hey.
"I thought that Princess Ning was from a barbarian and would be hairy and vulgar. I didn't expect that she would look like our Yun Chui girl, and she would be well-educated and generous."
"Indeed," someone couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "even in my opinion, Princess Ning's character and style cannot be compared to the legitimate daughters carefully cultivated by the aristocratic families in Xingji City."
"To be honest, although she grew up in Xiliang and lived in the remote Guangxin County for a long time after her marriage, my family still liked the gifts she gave her. She was really thoughtful..."
Changchun Palace.
The queen, who was sitting high up, scolded him for most of an hour.
"Yes, yes, my mother-in-law taught me a lesson, and my daughter-in-law has remembered it."
On the surface, Yingpan looked like she was listening attentively and nodded and said she would never do it again, but in fact, it went in one ear and out the other. She even had time to look back and smile at the son in Mrs. Zhang's arms.
The queen saw this and became even more angry.
It's a pity that a wife depends on her husband. Now that Ren Ning is in the spotlight, she neither dares nor can do anything.
I don’t know how long it took, but a doorkeeper maid hurriedly walked in.
"Your Majesty, someone is coming from Qingyun Palace."
"So fast?" The queen looked at the hourglass angrily. Although she had not reprimanded him enough, she could only let him go.
The group visited Qingyun Palace again.
In addition to Concubine Qing, there was also a smiling woman sitting inside.
It is Qian Qiao, Wei Junqian's wife.
"The daughter-in-law pays homage to her mother-in-law and godmother."
Mrs. Zhang also came forward with Ren Zhan in her arms, "Ms. Zhang has seen the imperial concubine and the general's wife."
Concubine Qing put on a pretty face and said, "We are all one family, so there are so many false gifts. Please sit down quickly."
After saying that, she happily took over her grandson, and together with Qian Qiao, she carefully played with Ren Zhan's little face that had just woken up from sleep.
"The queen didn't make things difficult for you, right?"
Yingpan smiled and shook her head, "When I got back to my mother-in-law, the Queen gave me a verbal scolding, but it was not painful and innocuous, and my daughter-in-law just turned a deaf ear."
As for Ren Zhan, Mrs. Zhang is a military doctor. After arriving in Xingji City, she learned a lot about the dirty tricks among high-ranking families, so she naturally guarded her tightly.
"That's good, that's good." Concubine Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
The few people didn't talk about the situation in Xingji City, but happily chatted about home affairs. The chat ended up in Ren Ning who was far away in Baekje.
"Is the battle at Beihai Customs about to begin? I don't know what the prince is doing now."
Baekje East Coast.
drive! drive!
The rumble of horse hooves.
A group of iron cavalry rushed towards the east-west post road of Yuanning Mountains with murderous intent.
It's just that the huge east bank has long been opened up by Japanese pirates into large and small crop fields, and there are wide and narrow water diversion ditches lined up from time to time, so the journey is not smooth.
"General," one of the guards said excitedly, "Are the brothers from the first to third battalions going to kill the Japanese pirates at Yuanning Pass?"
Yuanning Pass is trumpet-shaped, narrow in the west and wide in the east.
Because of the second prince, the Baekje Army had not yet recovered its strength, and although it had the advantage, it could not fight.
As for the Japanese pirates, although there were many people, Jiang Xuesong and others from Baekje were determined to win, but they could not attack them.
The two sides were fighting inextricably, with heavy casualties.
If they went over and stabbed the Japanese pirates in the back at this time, they might be able to solve the problem.
Ren Ning pondered for a while before slowly shaking his head.
The three battalions totaled 3,000 men, which was still a little short, and the ground was too bumpy for cavalry to attack or retreat.
Therefore, the first to third battalions only used to put pressure on the Japanese pirates' backs, so that the enemy would not dare to attack the Yuanning Mountains with all their strength or even expose flaws, so that Baekje could fight out.
Bang bang.
The little guard patted his chest heavily.
"General, if three thousand people are not enough, don't we have more than five thousand brothers? You can make up for it at any time."
After saying that, he couldn't help but look up to the northwest.
If the group of enemies attacking Yuanning Pass are eaten and Wu Siyuan's troops are brought in from the mountains, then the battle on the east bank will be much easier to fight in the future. At the worst, the Japanese pirates' food output can be further reduced.
It can be said that it is absolutely beneficial and harmless.
Snapped.
Lei Er slapped the man hard.
"Why are you so long-winded? The general has his own considerations. Let's just act accordingly."
Ren Ning smiled slightly.
He watched the first to third battalions go away before looking back at the burning coastline behind him.
"Don't worry, everyone, we have a lot of work to do."
In addition to continuing to destroy the various bases in front of him, he also had to kill the reinforcements sent by Kudo Naoto.
At the same time, Ukawa Taishi on the sea is coming back soon.
Whether he was defeated by Li Hebai and others and escaped, or he took the initiative to withdraw to put out the fire, Ren Ning and others happened to be guarding the shore.
There will definitely be a fierce battle between the two sides.
