"I don't know if this boy, Wu Hao, can pick a flower and put it on his pile of cow dung."
Miss Shen is affectionate and righteous, but her family background is too good.
Ning Feng felt that if he had thought about it twenty years ago, now... he could only rely on his own skills.
Flowers on cow dung?
The female relatives suddenly felt that there was a foul smell in the air, and they all reached out to the grapefruit leaves that Ning Zhifeng was holding.
Ning Zhifeng avoided Minhao and gently tapped Ning Feng's thigh with a grapefruit leaf.
"Did grandpa step on cow dung? I don't mind grandpa's stinky smell. I want to help grandpa get rid of his bad luck."
…
Ning Wuxu just got in the car.
The chicken blood on his butt was still warm from sitting, and the carriage passed through the crowded crowd and stopped in front of Ji's mansion.
"There's only one street between Ji's mansion and the government office?" Ning Wuchang was shocked.
Shen Youchu asked him, "Don't you know, Mr. Ning?"
I have nothing to do but ask where Miss Ji's home is.
However, it is normal for officials to live close to Fuya Street.
If he had known it was so close, he might as well have walked faster.
Even though it was only separated by a street, the front door of Ji's Mansion was far different from the bustling crowds gathered in front of the government office to watch the "whip corpse".
It's very quiet here, amidst the hustle and bustle.
As soon as he got off the carriage, a big brown horse with a bright yellow rein around its neck and a yellow cloth with a dragon pattern around its eyes immediately caught Ning Wuyan's attention.
"This is the royal horse from the palace. Why did it stop in front of Jin'er's house?" Shen Youchu recognized its origin and was quite surprised.
Everyone knows that Ji Shangshu is the emperor's confidant.
But Ji Jin was just a daughter of the Ji family. Although she was the most talented girl in Jinling, she was not powerful enough for the emperor to personally assign a royal horse to carry letters.
"That's bad, isn't it Jin'er who pushed those students behind your back to plead your case and angered the old emperor, so he came to issue a decree to punish you?"
Shen Youchu felt that the emperor was not such a narrow-minded person, but since it was a close friend and the matter was too strange, she couldn't help but think the worst.
After saying that, she picked up her skirt and ran towards the door.
Naturally, Ning Wushan is not willing to lag behind.
If Ji Jin was implicated because of his affairs, he would not mind going to the capital to discuss matters with the emperor in person.
As soon as the two of them reached the gate, a guard with a knife walked out side by side with Xu Jidao, followed by Ji Jin who looked complicated.
"Miss Ji."
"Jin'er!"
Ning Wuhuang and Shen Youchu crossed over to the two people in front of them and stood next to Ji Jin, one on the left and the other on the right. They asked in unison: "Are you okay?"
"I……"
Ji Jin subconsciously wanted to look at Ning Wuyan, who he had longed for but hadn't seen for a long time.
In the end, he turned away forcefully and looked at the worried Shen Youchu with a sideways smile: "I have nothing to do. I originally wanted to go to Beijing with Mr. Xu. I heard that Mr. Ning saved the day and just asked my servants to pack their luggage and go back to the room. I haven’t had time to send someone to tell you yet.”
"Oh? Do you want to make a special trip to the capital for Mr. Ning?"
Shen Youchu was even more surprised.
The purpose of Ji Jin's original visit to Jinling was to fulfill his filial piety for Shangshu Ji.
If Mrs. Ji encounters an accident along the way, and the news reaches the capital, and no one is stationed at the Ji family's old residence, I'm afraid Shangshu Ji will have to change his official position and be transferred to his former residence.
In her eyes, Ji Jin had always been a person who put his family first and the overall situation very seriously, but he actually took such a risk to save Mr. Ning.
Could it be that……
In the light of the calcium carbide fire, Shen Youchu finally figured out what his friend was thinking.
No wonder Jin'er is so concerned about Mr. Ning's affairs. It turns out that Jin'er not only likes Mr. Ning's poems, but also likes Mr. Ning as a person!
Like herself, Jin'er was worried that something might happen to Mr. Ning, and a meeting would be a farewell, so she spared no effort to protect Mr. Ning.
But why did Jin'er stay so close to the government office for so many days, but never visited Mr. Ning in prison?
For Shen Youchu, who would spare no effort to get what she wanted, she could not imagine the reason why Ji Jin did this.
Ning Wuhao, on the other hand, saw that Ji Jin kept turning his face away from him. After being barely considered a successful person in his previous life, he was often surrounded by beautiful women, so he naturally guessed his daughter's family's little thoughts.
But with so many people present now, he could only pretend to be confused and thank him first before saying, "Miss Ji's help to me is truly unforgettable."
"I just don't want Daxing to lose the unique Shixian."
Ji Jin spoke in an official tone.
Regardless of whether others believed it or not, neither Ning Wuhuang nor Shen Youchu believed it.
The maid behind Ji Jin who had been staring at Ning Wuyan with a resentful look on her face was also unconvinced.
Since Ji Jin didn't look at him, Ning Wushan couldn't answer the question, so he simply looked at Xu Jidao: "Mr. Xu, thank you for your hard work."
"Haha, little friend Ning is joking. I am just like Miss Ji. I just don't want Daxing to lose the unique Shixian."
If it was almost the same, Ning Wuhuang believed it this time.
He looked at the knife-wielding guard standing next to Xu Jidao, who was also looking at him and asked curiously: "Is this the famous Ning Shixian?"
"Exactly."
After Ning Wuchang saw him and bowed, the other party couldn't stop praising him.
"It is true that a hero emerges from his youth. Ning Shixian not only writes good poems, but also invents strange prescriptions. His Majesty heard about Ning Shixian's injustice, and then he knew that there is such a person in Jinling. Ning Shixian will definitely have a lot of potential in the future."
Ning Wuyang heard the hidden meaning in the guard's words: The emperor only learned about my title when he learned about the injustice?
So in addition to Zhou An being criticized by the decree, it seems that King Jin who blocked the news will also be feared by the emperor.
Maybe this will cause the wealthy and powerful King Jin to lose some support.
For him, it was an unexpected surprise.
When the guard with the sword saw that Ning Wuyan was being praised and remained calm and composed, he knew that the other party must have heard such praises many times. In other words, if he was not thick-skinned enough, he must be worthy of his reputation.
When His Majesty asks how Ning Wu is doing, he can give a reply.
"Master Xu, don't send it away. I will go back and resume my duties as governor of Jiangnan Province. Please take the trouble to supervise the various government offices in Jiangnan to see if there is any collusion between officials and businessmen."
The guard with the sword bowed to Xu Jidao and Ning Wuyan with fists in his hands, then rode away.
When the horse ran away, Xu Jidao quietly raised his steps to walk out, but Ning Wuyan stopped him with a smile.
"Congratulations to Mr. Xu, congratulations to Mr. Xu."
He should have guessed a long time ago that Xu Jidao, who rejected the old emperor's offer of being a royal gentleman based on the title of Poet King, and was able to go to Jinling and select talents with great fanfare, definitely had a complicated background.
Unexpectedly, Xu Jidao was not only the emperor's man, but also deeply trusted.
Xu Jidao was so embarrassed that he pulled Ning Wuyan's sleeves and walked to the corner of the door. He explained with a wry smile: "I don't want to be the governor. It's not the wine recipe you offered me, little friend Ning, so that His Majesty attaches great importance to the commercial development of Jinling, and specially arranged it I’ll take this position.”
I go.
Ning Wuhuang saw Xu Jidao being so shameless and putting the responsibility on himself, and he deeply condemned this behavior in his heart.
The emperor replaced the man named Huang and asked Xu Jidao to take over. Is this because he attached great importance to the commercial development of Jinling?
This is to knock the mountain and shake the tiger.
To reduce the impact of this wounding case, the dispute between the two kings of Jin and Kang had changed.
This is to prevent the officials of Jiangnan Dao from randomly standing in line and the Ye family seizing power to dedicate it to a certain prince again.
As soon as the news spread that Xu Jidao became the governor of Jiangnan Province, those officials who were not upright and had slanted shadows must have been so frightened that they could not sleep tonight.
Lian Xu Jidao, the king of poetry who prided himself on being indifferent to the secular world and meticulously studied poetry, was actually the emperor's eyes and ears.
There might be other eyes and ears of the emperor planted around him.
"Little friend Ning, although I have become the governor, I am still your friend."
Xu Jidao's seamless transformation from a pure and stoic poet king to a shopping mall veteran left Ning Wushu speechless.
But seeing that Xu Jidao ignored the emperor's doubts about his loyalty and wanted to go to Beijing to plead for him, he still fulfilled Xu Jidao's wish and continued the conversation.
