The backyard of Jingzhao Mansion.
The governor of Jingzhao Mansion, Xiangdong Xiangdong, stood politely toward the Lord, but he did not bend down or lower his head.
Even if the person opposite him is the sixth princess of Ning Kingdom!
"To your lord!"
Ning Shuyu wore a hijab to cover the scar on her face, as well as the expression on her face.
But her eyes were exposed.
Her eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a fierce light in them.
"The official is here!"
"Did you know that the Huo family will be my princess's husband's family!"
"I know, but it's inappropriate for Your Highness to say it's from your in-laws' family. After all, Your Highness is not marrying, but recruiting Mr. Huo as your consort!"
Ning Shuyu was startled and shouted angrily: "How big of a difference is this?"
"I only know that Huo Shufan has become my consort. From now on, the Huo family members are relatives of the emperor!"
"Yesterday, the Huo Mansion was robbed by bandits, and more than 100,000 taels of money were lost! This is simply unheard of!"
"When did gangsters become so rampant?"
"The Huo Mansion is only one street away from the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion. This is still a prosperous place in Kyoto. Those bandits are still riding horses... You actually don't know where those bandits went... You Jingzhao Mansion How did you become the Governor?"
Xiangdong suddenly bowed his hands and said: "The official has indeed failed in his duty. The emperor just happened to have returned to the palace. Otherwise... His Highness will write a letter to the emperor and impeach the official!"
Ning Shuyu was stunned immediately. She wanted to urge Xiangdong to solve the case as soon as possible, catch the culprit and recover the stolen property, but she didn't expect that this old guy turned out to be like a knife.
She is a princess, but princesses cannot participate in politics.
In other words, she had no right to write to the emperor at all.
However, she was the emperor's daughter. She could have complained to Xiang Dong privately, but then Xiang Dong would have been left with nothing to eat.
But she is not as popular with her father as the fourth princess Ning Chuchu.
To make Xiangdong feel uncomfortable, she had no choice but to go to her mother-in-law.
Although the mother-in-law spends all day hoeing the ground in the yard, she is the daughter of Duke Yan after all, and she can still say a few words in front of her father.
So, she sneered, "Threaten me?"
"good!"
"You wait!"
She turned around with her guards, and Xiangdong's voice came from behind: "Old minister, thank you, Your Highness!"
Ning Shuyu's teeth were itching with hatred. She didn't look back, she got on the carriage in the autumn rain and hurried to the palace.
A man walked out of the side room in the backyard of Jingzhao Mansion Yamen.
This is a fat man!
Of course not at ease.
He is the current prince Ning Zhiyi!
He looked around, then looked at Xiangdong, and laughed happily.
"You, why do you need to be acquainted with her?"
Xiangdong bowed and said, "Your Highness, this is my truth... I am old, and this Jingzhao Mansion is an offending yamen."
"There are many noble people in Kyoto. I, I, you and your highness, wanted to show your favor and transferred me from Annan Province to Kyoto. In these years in Kyoto, I have done some small things, but I have enjoyed many blessings."
"I'm really tired. I want to retire, but I hope Your Highness will make it happen!"
Ning Zhiyi raised his eyebrows, "You are not confused, why are you old?"
"I have seen your file in the Ministry of Personnel back then. When Mr. Li Chunfu was a Taiwei, he still found time to give lectures at Taiyuan University... You were a Jinshi in the third year of Zhaohua, Mr. Chunfu's favorite disciple!"
Xiangdong smiled bitterly, thinking that he had many disciples back then, but since he left the temple, and since Prime Minister Ji took power, all of his disciples were demoted and killed by Prime Minister Ji. Those who are still in the court now are either Either he took refuge in Prime Minister Ji, or... he closed his mouth and blindfolded his eyes from then on.
Although His Highness the Crown Prince has protected some people, His Highness the Crown Prince has not yet ascended the throne as emperor after all, and even his current situation is extremely worrying.
"I'm sorry sir."
"There are some things that you shouldn't think about so much."
Ning Zhiyi looked at the thin autumn rain and said, "As long as I am still in the East Palace, you will not be able to grow old... Of course, if I really cannot stay in the East Palace one day, you and the people I like, I I will arrange a way out for you.”
"Even if that road is not good, at least you won't die."
"There is hope only if you can't die."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. You invited me to come here not to talk about this matter. What? Could it be that the relationship involved in the theft of Huo Mansion is too complicated?"
Ning Zhiyi looked at Xiangdong again and waved his fat hand, "Just do it!"
"Even if this matter involves the Duke's Palace, don't be timid. I will make the decision for you!"
Xiangdong raised his head, swallowed, leaned over, and whispered:
"Your Highness, this matter... was not done by a certain Duke's mansion."
"Who is that?"
"Back to Your Highness, it's Lijing Division!"
Ning Zhiyi was shocked, "Li Jingsi? The Fourth Emperor's Sister?"
"Back to Your Highness, they are riding horses, but the horses' hooves are not wrapped with cotton cloth. It is still late at night, but they haven't taken a detour yet. They are heading all the way to the headquarters of Lijing Division!"
"This case is so easy to investigate!"
"I asked all the way this morning, and I ended up in front of the main gate of Lijing Department!"
"Fortunately, I didn't bring Luo Dong'an, Mr. Liu from Duke Luo's Mansion, with me. The two detectives who went there were my confidants, so I said this was done by gangsters... I thought it was His Highness's intention. …Now it seems that I was wrong.”
Ning Zhiyi's little eyes rolled around, no longer as heroic as before.
"You did the right thing!"
"But whether it was the Fourth Emperor's sister who did this, I'll ask her when I get back."
"Okay, I'm waiting for news from His Highness!"
Ning Zhiyi nodded, actually he was sure in his heart that it was Ning Chuchu who did this.
Because Ning Chuchu is very poor, and also because Li Jingsi is very poor.
Even the entire Ningguo is poor!
This person, if he has been poor for too long, will always find some way, but Ning Chuchu knows very well that this biological sister can still fight and kill, but if she is said to go to rob... I am afraid she will not think of such a bad idea. .
Who gave her this idea?
This person has bad intentions and deserves to be punished!
Ning Zhiyi turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly turned back and said, "By the way, Mr. Chunfu's grandson Li Chenan has been in Kyoto for more than ten days. Did you know?"
Xiangdong was startled, then bowed again: "I know, I am very happy!"
"Have you seen it?"
"Haven't seen it yet."
"Then what are you happy about?"
"I have heard it! I have heard his poems and what he said at the south gate of Kyoto!"
"To be honest with you, Your Highness, what I like most is what he said at the south gate of Kyoto."
Ning Zhiyi raised his eyebrows, "Are those words engraved on the stone tablet outside Taiyue College?"
"Not really!"
"Of course I also like those words, but what I like more is this sentence he said: Those who protect the country will seek for their rulers and their ministers to eat meat!
He who protects the world, how can he be held responsible for the lowliness of a common man! "
Ning Zhiyi was silent for a long time, turned around and left, leaving behind a message: "We can't let anything happen to him in Kyoto!"
Xiangdong looked at Ning Zhiyi's back and bowed his hands: "My lord, I understand!"
