Today's Ning Wuyan is still being trained by the emperor as a disciple of the emperor, and he should not interfere in the factional disputes in the court.
Just be afraid.
His father took advantage of the situation and pinned charges without evidence on Ning Wuyan, thereby ruining the overall situation.
Although Mr. An had not heard of the reason why King Jin targeted Ning Wuchang, he had some guesses.
I feel that King Jin’s suspicion is obviously a mistake.
Not to mention that Ning Wuyan, who was in Jinling at that time, was just a white man and had not even passed the martial arts examination.
Even now Ning Wuchang, who is favored by His Majesty and has become a sixth-grade imperial merchant, still has no courage to join forces with Zhou Jingxian to murder An Hou.
"The prince was just instigated by the Beidi people and wanted to get rid of Ning Wuhuang. After he comes into contact with Ning Wuhuang, he will figure everything out."
When Mr. An said this, the topic suddenly changed.
"Your Majesty, when you came into contact with Ning Wuhao, was there anything strange about him?"
Zhou Yu knew that Mr. An meant that if Ning Wuhuang was really the murderer of Zhou An or participated in it, he would definitely behave abnormally.
But after thinking carefully about his contact with Ning Wuyan, he shook his head decisively.
"No, Ning Wuchang is sincere in his treatment of others, and he has a familiar character. Whether he is with me or Zhou Jingxian, he has the same attitude, neither humble nor arrogant, and is routine."
"That's right."
Mr. An didn’t say what was wrong.
Zhou Yu didn't ask either.
Some people have rash suspicions about other people's affairs and are inconvenient to express them openly.
Now I just hope that after receiving the letter, my father can trust their judgment and not let the status of Prince Jin's Palace decline further.
…
Shen Mansion.
Shen Youchu lay on the bed bored, kicking the quilt with his feet, pouting and complaining to the beautiful woman sitting beside the bed with a look of grievance.
"Mom, dad lied to me. He said he would take me to Jingxian's house as long as the doctor said I was fine, but he went alone. Humph, dad is a big liar."
The beautiful woman is none other than Shen Qin.
Hearing her daughter's complaints, she stuffed the peeled tangerine into her daughter's mouth. While blocking her daughter's mouth, she reached out and poked her daughter on the forehead.
"Little smart boy, don't think that I don't know. You want me to chase you after your father has just left. You'd better give up today."
today?
Shen Youchu sat up in a hurry, swallowed the tangerine like a jujube, rubbed his buttocks on the bed and came to Shen Qinshi's side, hugged Shen Qinshi's arm and acted coquettishly.
"Mother~~ I gave up on this idea today, can I come back to life tomorrow?"
"It's because it's dark outside today. Ning Huangshang is a foreigner after all. There's no reason for you, a girl who hasn't left the palace, to go late at night."
Speaking of this, Shen Qin's tone became more serious, with a serious look on his face.
"Daughter, this is a capital city where dignitaries gather and there are many rules. It's not like Jinling Mansion. Even if you stay in Ning Mansion day and night, no one will dare to care about you. There will always be a group of old antiques who don't like your chicness. On weekdays, You can't even get through the door of Shen's house, and when you hear the wind, it's like mud."
"In the past, you just found some good-looking men and beauties, invited them to join the painting, and gave them money and what they wanted. Then it was rumored that you were a little bully who forced beautiful women into prostitution. Don't you know how to be vigilant? ?”
Mrs. Shen Qin did not let her daughter restrain herself.
As the only eldest daughter of the Shen family, as long as she behaves properly, there is no need to restrain herself.
The key point is that it is indeed inappropriate to go to see Ning Wushuo at night.
Shen Youchu made a guilty face and leaned closer to Shen Qin's arms.
"Mother, when I stayed at the Ning family in Jinling Mansion, I lived with the Ning family ladies. I definitely didn't do anything extraordinary. If you don't believe it, you can ask Mei Xiang and Ju Xiang."
"I've asked, otherwise you won't be able to go even if you want to go tomorrow."
Shen Qin reached out and poked her daughter's forehead again.
Recalling the content of Ju Xiang's report, Ning Wuyan did not deliberately flatter her because of her daughter's status, and even went along with the flow to promote good things, making a meal out of raw rice.
On the contrary, my daughter pressed on eagerly, and she was also very helpless.
She originally thought that in this relationship, it was her daughter who was hot-headed, so Ning Wushuang could be so reserved because he had no intention of her daughter, so she never considered contacting the Ning family.
Today, Ning Wuhuang actually risked his life to save his daughter, which made her have to re-examine the deep friendship between this young girl.
"Youchu..."
"Mom, I'm sleepy. I seem to be a little frightened. I want to sleep."
Feeling something bad, Shen Youchu let go of Shen Qin's arm, lifted the quilt and got in.
And wrapped himself in it, not daring to show his head.
"..."
When Shen Qin saw her daughter's reaction, she couldn't help but laugh. She stretched out her arms to reach for the quilt.
But she saw that the bulging quilt had shrunk to the inside of the bed, preventing her from touching it at all.
"Child, don't hold yourself back. Mom won't talk to you about Ning Huangshang tonight. When Ning Huangshang's injury gets better, Mom will go with you to visit General Ning. So that you can thank me in person."
"Know it."
Mrs. Shen Qin kept shaking her head as she listened to her daughter's muffled answer.
This kid.
He was also afraid that she would not agree to interact with the Ning family.
If you want to be the son-in-law of the Shen family, you do need to have high standards, but she is the kind of mother who only recognizes the lintel and not the person.
Whoever wants to take away the apple of their eye has only one criterion.
That is to be kind to young children, and to protect them with their lives if there is danger.
It remains to be seen whether Ning Wuyang is really good to Youchu or not, but the most difficult aspect of being able to protect him with his life in the face of danger has actually been shown.
so.
She was very satisfied with Ning Wushan.
Let’s see what Ting Jun’s opinion is after seeing Ning Wuchang.
…
Princess Xian's mansion, in front of the door.
As soon as Shen Tingjun got off the carriage, the housekeeper Jinzhong's old face smiled like a chrysanthemum and came up to him. He quickly asked the servants in the mansion to light all the lamps that could be lit in the yard to prevent Shen Tingjun from stumbling in the princess's mansion. But I really can’t afford to pay.
"Master Shen, what do you want to do?"
Butler Jinzhong asked according to the rules, but was not prepared for an answer.
Unexpectedly, Shen Tingjun first bowed his hands to him, and then replied: "I came here on behalf of my daughter to express my gratitude to Ning Huangshang. I hope the housekeeper can pass this on."
Butler Jinzhong had never received a courtesy from such an important person before. He was flattered and stepped back half a step to accept the courtesy. He quickly called the servant and went to convey the message.
The middle-aged guard beside Shen Tingjun casually took out a handful of golden melon seeds from his sleeve and stuffed them into the hand of the young man who was about to pass the message.
"Master Shen, don't worry, the little one will run away."
The boy ran away as he pleased, and no one in the house dared to stop him.
Seeing that Shen Tingjun was so generous, the housekeeper Jinzhong envied the boy and quickly welcomed him into the living room to sit down.
No surprise.
The guard took out another large piece of gold leaf and handed it to the butler Jin Zhong. He also rewarded the boy who led the way and the maid who served the tea.
This behavior doesn't look like he's here to say thank you, but more like he's here to spread wealth.
Just as Butler Jinzhong was secretly stroking the golden leaves in his sleeves, he heard Shen Tingjun ask: "Butler, where should I put my thank you gift?"
