King of Jin?
Ning Wuyang didn't have a deep impression of this person, but he once heard his grandfather scold King Jin.
Because this person had proposed cutting military expenditures and diverting them to expand state and county official positions and increase the number of imperial examinations. In this way, Daxing would only place more emphasis on literature and martial arts.
He had no interest in working for such a person who did not think about danger in times of peace.
I have no intention of taking sides.
Seeing his disapproving look, Ji Jin looked at his friend who also didn't take Prince Jin seriously, and felt helpless: "One of the organizers of the Talents Conference some time ago was Princess Jingxian, the daughter of Prince Kang. It’s no small matter.”
Another King Kang?
The two princes ignored the autumn exams and the upcoming spring exams, so they rushed to Jiangnan Road to recruit talents at such an inappropriate time?
Then there is only one possibility.
Hoarding talents is meant to compete for reserves!
Just like when soldiers and horses move forward before food and grass are used in a war, fighting for reserves is an extremely talent-consuming struggle.
No wonder Ye Tongpan knew that he had a problem with the Ye family and still tried to recruit him. This was because of his appeal and influence as a poet in the literary world!
"Thank you, Miss Ji, for reminding me. I have no intention of participating in the court affairs. I only went to the gathering to deliver goods."
He was just an inconspicuous speck of dust. He never thought about causing a big disturbance, nor did he want to get involved in the battle between the wind and the waves.
Ji Jin breathed a sigh of relief at Ning Wuyan's assurance.
The Ji family has always maintained a neutral attitude and firmly stood on the side of the present, so she heard some rumors that the present has not yet decided who will be the crown prince.
If Mr. Ning chooses the wrong person at this time, not only himself, but also the Ning family may be destroyed as a result.
Ning Wuyang felt Ji Jin's concern, and he asked softly: "Is Miss Ji going to attend this rally?"
"I...if Mr. Ning goes, I will go and join in the fun." Ji Jin's answer surprised Shen Youchu, who had always refused to comment on the dispute between the crown prince.
She remembered that Zhou An had sent the post early, and wanted to ask Jin'er to help organize it. She wanted to win over the Ji family and also compete with Jingxian's talent conference.
But Jin'er didn't agree, saying that he didn't want to get involved in the dispute, so why...?
Shen Youchu tapped his little head with his pink fist and suddenly understood: "If Jin'er wants to go, I will go too!"
She was going to escort Mr. Ning.
If Ye Tongpuan relies on his official power to bully Mr. Ning, she will let Mei Xiang beat him!
"Okay, the three of us will join in the fun together." Ning Wuyang held the warm ten thousand taels of silver notes in his arms. Thinking of the danger of this gathering, he cupped his fists and bowed to the two women: "I still have something to do, so let's go first Farewell."
"Master Ning, you are busy with your business. When the peach blossom perfume is available, remember to call me to get it. I will definitely take it to the Gathering of Talents on the day of the Gathering of Talents." Shen Youchu said very politely.
Through the secret contest between Ning Wuhuang and Ye Changlong just now, she knew that Mr. Ning valued the perfume business very much.
Although she wanted Mr. Ning to make perfume only for her for the rest of his life, this wish was obviously impossible to come true.
Then he secretly helped him and successfully squeezed out that damn Ye's Incense Shop.
In this way, Mr. Ning will become the richest man in Jinling, and his parents will definitely be very satisfied with the marriage.
Ning Wuhuang actually wanted to make this request to bring goods, but also felt that a truly famous daughter like Shen Youchu would not be so ostentatious. When she saw her taking the initiative to mention it, she naturally understood that Shen Youchu was helping her, and was extremely grateful.
"I believe that Miss Shen will be the most beautiful woman in the room by then."
Even though Shen Youchu was praised so openly, a blush appeared on his face.
Ji Jin had never heard such a bold statement before. She stared blankly at Ning Wuyan's side face. If these words had not come out of his mouth, she would have thought that the other person was a deceiver.
But when she saw Mr. Ning's eyes were clear and pure, and he was just praising her without any other intention, she suddenly felt sour in her heart: Wasn't she a beauty in Mr. Ning's eyes?
"Hehe, Mr. Ning, please do your work. I will take Jin'er back to tailor new clothes. I will definitely live up to your praise."
Ji Jin was accidentally dragged by Shen Youchu and staggered. He stumbled and screamed.
Fortunately, Ning Wuyan's quick eyes and quick hands quickly lifted her arm up and prevented her from falling to the ground.
His strong arms were as hot as fire. Ji Jin quickly stood up and bowed: "Thank you, Mr. Ning."
"Miss Ji, we have met several times. You should know that I am easy-going and don't have to be so restrained. I just do what Miss Ji just reminded me and can do anything with a little effort."
But it’s not something I can do easily.
Ji Jin pursed his lips and thought: I am worried that your life is in danger, so I am reminding you.
But she couldn't speak these words in front of Youchu.
"Jin'er, let's go."
When Shen Youchu saw the two of them holding their arms together, she quickly pulled away, waved her little hand towards Ning Wuhuang, and took Ji Jin into the carriage.
Ning Wuyan watched the carriage go away, and asked the one-eyed boy to go to the flower house to get the cheapest flowers to extract 200 bottles of plant essential oils, and wait for him to come back to mix and blend. After explaining, he left for Ning's Mansion.
As soon as he arrived at the gate, the boy guarding the door rushed in to report, and there were even people who came to greet him and lead the way.
"Fifth Young Master, the old lady and the eldest master are on errands today. Only the second master is at home. I will take you to see the second master?"
"good."
In the past, although the servants of the Ning Mansion regarded him as their master under the supervision of his two aunts, they did not respect him so much.
Now that I know he is a poetry immortal, my attitude is much more respectful.
This kind of thing exists everywhere.
As long as you become rich or powerful, you will be surrounded by smiling people. Ning Wuhuang had already experienced this, so he had to work hard to become a strong man.
It's not that he wants others to think highly of him, it's just that he doesn't want to live a miserable life.
Walking through the waterside pavilion, I came to the second uncle's yard.
As soon as they entered the yard, they saw the second uncle eating peanuts and sipping wine in the pavilion. He looked drunk and blurred. It seemed that he had been drinking since he got up early in the morning.
"It's okay, come quickly!"
Ning Weiguo greeted him with a smile.
"I heard that you have been busy with business these days and have stayed behind closed doors. How come you are willing to give up today? You have also composed a few good poems. Can you tell me to let my second uncle listen?"
Ning Wuyang sat down opposite Ning Weiguo, and the maid next to him poured tea and water very enthusiastically.
He took a sip of tea and then asked in confusion: "Isn't the second uncle on duty today?"
"Don't mention it. Recently, Ye Tongpan has been looking for trouble every day. Yesterday, he found an excuse to ask me not to go to the government office for the time being. If you don't let me go, I won't go. I happen to be at home keeping an eye on your third brother's homework."
Ye Tongpan was wooing him while suppressing his second uncle?
The tea cup that Ning Wuhuang picked up was hovering in the air. After thinking about it for a moment, he realized that the Ye family wanted to use both kindness and power to force him and the Ning family to surrender to the Ye family.
This method is very common in shopping mall cooperation. Although it is low-level, it has good results.
Especially when the person who exerts power can take all the money and power, the person who is being forced has no possibility of breaking free unless he wants to fight to the death.
Ning Wuyan glanced at Ning Weiguo, who said he didn't care about his official career, but was actually drowning his sorrows in drunkenness, and tortured his soul: "Second uncle, if Ye Tongpan can give you a promotion, the premise is that he must be left to his own devices. Do you want to?"
