Chapter 91:

The box of pastries was distributed to the little maidservants in the yard. The maidservants were very happy to eat, and secretly said that it would be better for An Wang to send them more courteously. In the end, they were all cheaper.
After that, Wang An still sent things over, but everything was handed over to Jiang Yunlan by the gatekeeper, and the food was distributed by the little maids, and the others all returned, just like the original.
A few days later, when Wang An sent a letter again, the letter was full of complaints, blaming her for her incompetence and backlash. Ning Nuan watched and almost laughed again.
She put up a pen and told Jiang Yunlan to block the matter. When she replied, Wang An seemed to have accepted the answer, and took the opportunity to make a request, saying that the things she had promised had not been fulfilled, and she had to promise a new one.
Ning Nuan was noncommittal, just watching him tell the new request in his heart.
King Ann had to keep an inch and asked in the letter that she should write to her from time to time in the future, and it is best to write a letter every time he delivers the letter.
This is really an inch.
An Wang's letters are actually sent very frequently, and now it is still following Ning Lang's recent situation, but recently it has been daily. Ning Nuan, a girl who has not left the pavilion, if she exchanges letters with a foreigner every day, what is it like?
After reading it, Ning Nuan didn't reply to the letter, so he burned the letter.
One day later, An Wang's letter appeared in front of the house again. This time his attitude in the letter was half soft, as if he was afraid that Ning Nuan would get angry. He stopped talking about the request made yesterday, and only wrote it carefully. Coax her inside.
Ning Nuan became more amused as she watched, but she didn't say anything, just as if nothing had happened. When Wang An delivered the letter again, she would be reading it every day as usual.
On the contrary, Wang saw that she was not angry, and became happy again, forgetting his previous request.
Only Wang Quan and Xiangtao, who had watched the whole journey, couldn't help but sympathize with him in their hearts.
Seeing his master happily handing over the initiative to Ms. Ning, Wang Quan finally couldn't help but reminded: "Master, you have forgotten what you said earlier. Take the opportunity to make Ms. Ning like you. Up?"
Chu Fei raised his eyebrows immediately: "When did this king say such a thing?"
Wang Quan: "..."
Wang Quan pointed out: "You previously threatened Miss Ning with the Qiuwei's venting questions, and asked Miss Ning to agree to accept the gifts from you, but these gifts were blocked by Mrs. Ning. Lord, you planned to count this way. Up?"
"of course not."
Wang Quan looked at the letter he had just written. It was filled with words of kindness. Where was the slightest attempt to threaten Girl Ning?
Chu Fei touched his nose, coughed, and said sternly, "This king has his own plan. Do you even dare to question this king?"
"The slave dare not." Wang Quan hurriedly lowered his head and told Rao. He thought about it, and then said: "Then how the prince plans, it is better to talk to the slave, the slave can also help the prince, do you think the prince?"
Chu Fei pondered for a while, but couldn't think of any ideas.
Ning Nuan usually stays in Ning Mansion and can't come out, but Ning Mansion is not so close, especially now that Ning Yanting and Jiang Clan are not pleasing to his eyes, no one is willing to interact with him, let alone Said to invite him to Ningfu.
Jinghe's excuse has been used several times, and if it is used a lot, it may not be so useful.
Chu Fei was worried for a while.
Wang Quan sighed again: "The slave heard that, but even Gongzi Zhu had married Master Xue's daughter. Then Gongzi Zhu is a friend of Master Ning. He is about the same age as Master Ning, and a little younger than Master Wang. A kiss is scheduled. Speaking of which, a few days ago, the queen mother wanted to send someone over again, but fortunately, the prince had ordered in advance this time, so the steward did not accept the person..."
He was talking long and long, and Chu Fei had a headache.
Chu Fei secretly said in his heart: What is Zhu Hanshan? In his previous life, until his death, Zhu Hanshan was still a lonely man. He was vicious and mean, even if he was reused by the emperor, he had no good friends, let alone any adult who had thought of marrying his daughter.
Maybe it is, but Zhu Hanshan has a weird temperament, Xu Shi pushed all of them.
It turned out to be good now. He hasn't got the top pick yet, but he has decided in advance.
Chu Fei was jealous.
Why is this rebirth once, everyone else is going smoothly, but he wants to catch up with A Nuan again, but it is more difficult than climbing. He chased for so long with a cheeky face, and he didn't see that A Nuan had treated him better.
But in his previous life, he first married A Nuan into the mansion, and then cultivated feelings with her, but now it's not enough. Thinking that A Nuan was forced to marry into the palace in his previous life, he would never think about this kind of thing anymore in this life, and he didn't want to make A Nuan feel wronged.
Chu Fei paced back and forth in the study, unable to think of a clue, so she had to bitely said, "What happened to the other Ning family?"
Wang Quan quickly said: "Ning Shuo has returned to Jiangzhou. The minion knows that he has sent someone to stare at him. From now on, he will report to the prince no matter what he does."
Chu Fei's brows stretched out: "Where is the third prince?"
"The third prince is still in the mansion and has not come out."
Speaking of the three princes and Ning Shuo, it was also an unexpected gain for Chu Fei.
When he investigated Qiuwei’s problem, he thought it was the work of the eldest prince again, but the eldest prince had done something wrong before, and now he is very obedient, and dare not do anything beyond the rules, let alone Ning Shuo. Jiangzhou did not have the opportunity to contact the prince.
But the three princes are different. The concubine of the three princes comes from the Jiangzhou family. The three princes are not too prominent among the princes. The prince and the prince are fighting fiercely, and no one pays attention to him, so no one has discovered that he secretly accumulated in Jiangzhou. He even happened to run into Ning Shuo and recruited Ning Shuo to become his subordinate.
The imperial examination was also presided over by the prince. If it hadn't been for Zhu Hanshan's agility, and he had noticed it early, I'm afraid he would have passed it in this way. Even if something happened, no one would think of the head of the third prince. The third prince originally wanted to plant his life in the DPRK, but due to the leak of the test, the test was temporarily changed. Most of his preparations were broken. Among them, the best score is Ning Shuo, but Ning Shuo is the best. Deprived of his fame, he could no longer participate in the imperial examinations.
If it weren't for Chu Fei to carefully check Ning Shuo's line, he would not find the third prince.
Even the current sage thought it was the prince’s subordinates. In addition to the faults, the examiner who was in charge of the Qiuwei also called out to scold them. Each had a lot of punishment. The worst offense was the crime that the three princes introduced. Sheep.
After the venting of the title was over, the third prince stayed in his palace and did not come out again. He was always inconspicuous, and no one noticed. Chu Fei could probably guess that he had gone to Jiangzhou secretly.
Chu Fei went through these things in his heart, and then said: "Prepare the car, this king is going to the palace."
Wang Quan responded and quickly went out to prepare.
What he did in the palace was of course asking for rewards!
This time Chu Fei went to find the emperor, and met the prince again at the entrance of the royal study room. The prince was very happy when he saw him, and actively said, "Uncle Emperor, you are here again."
Chu Fei smiled and nodded in response.
The crown prince pulled him aside and said gratefully: "I heard from the emperor. It turns out that the imperial uncle you found out about the leak of the imperial examination first. Fortunately, you found out about the imperial uncle. Otherwise, if you let those students get the real exam questions. At that time, I really don’t know what to do."
Chu Fei unfurled the fan and said slowly, "No thanks."
"Uncle Emperor, what did you do to find your father?"
Chu Fei raised his eyelids and said, "I have made such a great contribution, and the emperor didn’t say any rewards. This time the confession is over, but I have been waiting at home for so many days, but it has been Didn't wait for the reward, tell me, is it because the emperor is unreasonable?"
The crown prince suddenly realized, and immediately said: "Uncle emperor don't worry, I will go and prepare a gift for the emperor."
Chu Fei hooked the corner of his mouth, finally giving him a smile.
He bypassed the prince, and without waiting for the eunuch's notification, he slowly shook his fan and entered the imperial study room.
The emperor was reviewing the memorial, and when he heard the movement of him coming in, he couldn't help asking: "What are you doing again?"
"The emperor's words seem to be unwilling to see me." Chu Fei waved to the eunuch, and the immediately moved up a chair. He sat down unceremoniously, and said to himself: "The minister is here this time. , There is something I want to tell the emperor brother."
The emperor frowned subconsciously.
When Chu Fei came back last time, he brought about the imperial examination leak. It has been troubled for so long, but finally there is a result. Is it possible that something has just ended and there are new problems?
The emperor put down the Zhubi, frowned and said, "What happened again?"
As soon as Chu Fei closed his fan, he said, "This time it is the emperor that you have an accident."
"what?"
"Brother Emperor, you owe me the reward, when will you give it to me?"
The emperor was taken aback, and then shook his head and laughed: "It turns out that this is what you were worried about. When I got busy, I almost forgot about it. Since you have said everything, then I can't treat you badly. I will let you go in person later. What do you say about the reward?"
Chu Fei was overjoyed: "That's naturally very good."
After he finished speaking, he couldn't wait to say: "Since the emperor brother has said so, no matter what reward he wants, he is willing to give it?"
A gentleman can't chase a horse with a word, and when he speaks everything, there is no reason to go back.
Seeing the emperor nodded with his own eyes, Chu Fei said happily: "The courtier took a fancy to the mansion of Mr. Xu's house, so let the emperor ask for the courtier."
emperor:"……"
The emperor almost thought he had heard it wrong.
"What did you just say? Mr. Xu's...house?" The emperor couldn't help repeating: "You mean the house? Not a daughter?"
Chu Fei suddenly disliked: "What do I want his daughter to do? His daughter is only a few years old, and is about the same age as Jinghe. How can I look like such a shameless person?"
emperor:"……"
Wouldn't it be too much for you to ask for an ancestral home?
The emperor rubbed his forehead, only hating himself for agreeing to be so fast.
He asked: "Then what do you want Xu Qing's house? Is your palace not comfortable enough? If so, I will find a bigger palace for you."
"My palace is very empty, but it can't be bigger." There is no mistress in Wang'an today, and the palace is empty. "I passed by the door of Xu's house a few days ago and saw his house. I don't know why, it's a good match. After a few days, I haven't forgotten. This is not the only reason to come to see the Emperor."
The emperor only felt that he himself had a lot of words, but looking at his righteous appearance, he couldn't say a word.
"Whose house do you think is not good and want someone to be an ancestral house?" The emperor said patiently: "If I helped you, how should I face Xu Qing?"
Chu Fei shook his head: "Brother Emperor, you are wrong. It is not the ancestral house of Mr. Xu. Mr. Xu is from a poor family. Where can there be such a good ancestral house? He bought it later, since it is not an ancestral house. It’s not too much that the courtier wants to buy it. Brother Huang, don’t you think?"
The emperor was speechless.
Chu Fei looked at him suspiciously: "Isn't the emperor brother wanting to repent?"
The emperor shook his head.
No way, who let him make this statement?
The emperor stared at him, just watching him slowly get up and leave until he walked to the entrance of the imperial study room. He suddenly remembered something, then turned around and asked: "Yes, brother, you won’t pay the money for the house. Will you ask me?"
The emperor drove him away with a black face.
Chu Fei couldn't do it happily.
He took a fancy to the Xu family's house, and he didn't do anything else, just because the Xu family happened to be a neighbor of the Ning family. Next to the Xu family's house, isn't it the Ning family?
If he gets closer, doesn't he have a lot of opportunities to contact A Nuan?
...
After a few days, the deed of Xujiazhai's house was sent to Wangan's Mansion.
This time, Chu Fei held the matter back and didn't mention a word to anyone. Even if he wrote to Ning Nuan every day, he didn't mention anything about Xu's house.
Only Jiang Yunlan was puzzled. When he was free, he talked to Ning Nuan: "The Xu family is really weird and very good. Suddenly it is going to move away, and it is very hurried. I see it won’t take a few days. It's going to be empty."
"Moved away?" Ning Nuan asked, "Master Xu was transferred?"
"Neither, I also asked your father, and your father has not heard anything." Jiang Yunlan said: "I have also inquired, although the Xu family moved, but the place is still the capital, but the location is better than here. Better, maybe because the house here is too small and the location is not very good."
Ning Nuan smiled.
This house is too small and the location is not very good, but it is what Jiang Yunlan said.
Finally, I bought all the parts of the Ning family's house. After Jiang Yunlan arranged it, he started to provoke the thorns again, thinking it was really small.
The capital is densely populated and land prices are high. For the same amount of money, you can buy a small house in the capital, but you can buy a large garden in other places. The Ning family is the old house of the Ning family. After many years, the Ning family has never moved the nest, but Jiang Yunlan is different.
She was born in a large family of Shu, and her ancestors were also prominent. Ning Nuan heard her mention that her family’s ancestral home was huge, and all relatives in the family lived together and it was still very spacious. In Jiang Yunlan's words, Ning's house is not as big as her garden.
Ning Nuan hadn't seen it in person, and I don't know how much Jiang Yunlan's words were exaggerated, but she also understood what she meant that she was disgusting that the ancestral home of the Ning family was too small. If it weren't for the ancestral residence, Ning Yanting would not bear to leave, I am afraid she would have made Yinzi buy the compound in the capital.
Jiang Yunlan said, "I forgot about this. I knew it was so. I went to buy the Xu family house. Once the courtyard wall was opened, the house would become bigger?"
Ning Nuan replied, "Why don't that mother go and ask now."
Jiang Yunlan didn't hesitate, and immediately asked.
After a while, she came back sadly.
"I asked Mrs. Xu, the house next door has already been sold, but unfortunately, if I remembered it earlier, I wouldn’t have missed this. If the person who bought the house next door speaks well, I can take the house from Xu’s hand. Buy it."
But unfortunately, until the Xu family moved cleanly, there was no one from the next door.
After a while, another worker came over and changed the structure of the old house according to the drawings. He only heard the daily ding-dong banging sound, Jiang Yunlan sent someone to stare at it several times, and before a person in charge came over, he sent someone to inquire about it. The workers also did not disclose a word.
Jiang Yunlan had no choice but to respond unwillingly, and turned around and said to Ning Nuan: "Maybe this is a big man who moved next door, and his identity is really mysterious."
"I don't know if I will get along with Mrs. Xu like that." Ning Nuan said, "If so, mother will have another speaker."
Jiang Yunlan thought for a while and couldn't help but look forward to it.
It's just that the progress of the construction of the neighboring house is too slow. It seems to be a major change. Even the Ning family has been remodeled. The neighboring house is still dangling. Sometimes workers move things in and out, all of them are expensive.
As the weather gradually turned cooler, Jiang Yunlan bought thick clothes for the family, and originally planned to send them to Ning Lang, but before thinking that the clothes were sent out, Ning Lang returned first.
Suddenly when Ning Lang came back, there was no sign at all. One day a strong brown-red horse entered the city gate and rode across the street until it stopped at the gate of Ning Mansion. Ning Lang turned over and got off his horse. Ning's gatekeeper saw him, but he didn't react for a while.
Ning Lang raised his eyebrows, and said angrily: "How long have I been away? You don't even recognize me?"
Only then did the gatekeeper come back to his senses, he was overjoyed, called him, and hurriedly ran towards the house.
"Master! Madam! Miss! Master is back!"
Ning Lang was satisfied and walked in.
When Jiang Yunlan and Ning Nuan heard the sound, they were taken aback when they saw him.
Ning Nuan quickly said in surprise: "Brother, why did you come back suddenly?!"
There was no mention of a word in Wang An's letter!
Ning Lang proudly raised his head and said: "I didn't tell you specifically, thinking about coming back to give you a surprise. Now when I look at it, you really miss me very much."
Jiang Yunlan: "..."
Jiang Yunlan moved her fingers, but she still didn't slap him.
She asked her servant to talk to Ning Yanting, and she pulled Ning Lang into the house: "It's just right to be back. You are coming back this time, don't you leave?"
Ning Lang paused, suddenly hesitated, and did not answer her immediately.
Ning Nuan immediately saw what was wrong: "Brother, what happened?"
Ning Lang immediately denied: "Why? What can I do? A Nuan, you just don't trust me too much."
"Then I heard what my brother said, it must be that I stayed very well in Qingzhou." Ning Nuan poured a glass of water for him and said softly: "I see in the letter from my brother, my brother's experience in Qingzhou seems to be pretty good. , Did the task assigned by King An to his brother have been completed?"
"That's natural." Ning Lang said proudly, holding the teacup: "When will I not be able to do things with your brother?"
"Then brother is done, how long can I stay at home this time?"
Ning Lang had a meal, took a sip from his teacup, his eyes dodged, and he kept saying: "Just... let's talk about it."
Ning Nuan and Jiang Yunlan looked at each other, and Jiang Yunlan immediately raised his ears unceremoniously: "Tell me honestly, did something happen again? What was done well, I think you sneaked back, right? ?"
"Mother, mother! Let go -" Ning Lang exclaimed in pain, "Mother!"
"Where is Qing Song?" Ning Nuan looked behind him: "Why didn't Qing Song come back with your brother?"
Jiang Yunlan let go and looked at him suspiciously.
Ning Lang covered his ears and said in a solemn voice: "Qingsong is still in Qingzhou, I came back alone."
"It's so good, why did you come back suddenly?" Jiang Yunlan looked at him warily: "If something happened, you said it earlier, we can help you figure out a solution together, but don't be like Ning Shuo. The same, wait until things happen, let the family know."
Ning Lang was taken aback, and suddenly raised his head in surprise: "Ning Shuo? What happened to Ning Shuo?"
Jiang Yunlan told him about Qiu Wei's problem.
Ning Lang immediately slapped the table and said angrily: "I knew it! I knew he was not a good one! This person used to perineum me before, but now it's better, even the imperial examination vents have been done, if not discovered Early, I don’t know what's going to happen yet!"
Not to mention that Zhu Hanshan participated in the Qiuwei this time, but he just wished Hanshan such a friend. Did Ning Shuo do such a thing to harm his friend?
Jiang Yunlan said in a bad manner: "Since you know, don't hurry up to tell what you did."
Ning Lang: "..."
Ning Lang's eyes moved away, he touched his stomach, and said loudly, "Mother, I haven't eaten anything for a day. You can let the kitchen make me something to eat, or I will pass out of hunger. ."
"..."
Jiang Yunlan gave him a white look, and did not dare to starve him.
After Ning Lang had enough food and drink, he immediately sneaked back into his room. Seeing that he had been away for a long time, the room was still the same as before, he was immediately satisfied, and when he lay down on the bed, he fell asleep directly.
Ning Nuan took a look at him midway, and saw that he was asleep, so he quietly left.
"I don't see my brother stabbing a big basket." Ning Nuan said, "Otherwise, with my brother's character, I have already said things. How can I hold back this time, I see my brother's wrong things, and The task that Wang An confided to him is not very relevant either."
Jiang Yunlan: "Really?"
Ning Nuan nodded. If there is a connection, I am afraid that Wang An has already received the news and has already written to her.
"My elder brother rushed from Qingzhou in such a hurry. He didn't even bring Qingsong. He rode a horse. I saw him as if he didn't stop all the way. Today is also a day's journey." Ning Nuan said: "My brother doesn't want to say, but I guess he looks like..."
Ning Nuan thought for a while, but couldn't think of any adjectives.
Jiang Yunlan asked: "What is it like?"
"It's like a private matter."
"He doesn't hide anything from others on weekdays. Qingsong knows everything, and what else he can even leave Qingsong behind. There is a nest of mountain bandits in Qingzhou, he can't still like which one he likes. Girl..." Jiang Yunlan paused, then hesitated: "Should not?"
Ning Nuan was at a loss: "There are still girls on the hill?"
Jiang Yunlan: "..."
Jiang Yunlan only felt that a head-on hit her head, and suddenly knocked her dizzy, almost unable to stand still. She hurriedly sat down with the edge of the table, poured herself another cup of tea, took two sips and was shocked, and then panted back in one breath.
Jiang Yunlan said with a horror: "I didn't see him like this before..."
This good son went to Qingzhou and became a mountain bandit. He couldn't see the bandit leader in the bandit den, right? !
Jiang Yunlan thought a lot for a while, and couldn't help but think of Ning Lang coming back with a sturdy guy with a sturdy back and muscles, and calling her own mother... She breathed, and quickly drank two sips of water. The panic was suppressed.
Ning Nuan: "Mother?"
Jiang Yunlan murmured: "When he went to Qingzhou, I personally nodded and agreed. Now that something like this has happened, how should I explain to your father..."
She also has a son in Ninglang, won't she have no grandson in the future?
"Mother?!" Ning Nuan wondered: "Mother, what are you thinking about?"
Jiang Yunlan finally got over it.
She quickly grabbed Ning Nuan and said, "A Nuan, you must ask what happened to your brother."
"Mother, of course I will."
Ning Lang slept dimly. Before he woke up, Chu Fei came to the door first.
Chu Fei personally went to the Ning's family and asked the doorkeeper to make an announcement. Before he could reply, he went straight in. As soon as he saw someone, he immediately asked: "Did Ning Lang come back?"
Jiang Yunlan replied: "I'm back, did the prince make him come back?"
"This king has never said this to him." Chu Fei said with a dark face: "This king also wants to know how he had been in Qingzhou so well, why suddenly he returned to the capital without saying a word, if someone hadn't come to tell Ben Wang, this king doesn't even know that he has gone home!"
"Then... Then, what disaster did he cause when he came back?" Jiang Yunlan asked tentatively.
"Not really."
Jiang Yunlan took a long sigh of relief and let go of her heart.
"He has been on the road all day, and now he is tired to sleep. When he wakes up, he will definitely make him go to the prince to apologize." Jiang Yunlan asked: "I wonder how long the prince can allow him to stay in the capital this time. The wife hasn't seen him for a long time, and she really missed it. If the prince agrees, let him stay at home for a few more days."
Chu Fei thought for a while. There really is nothing important recently, and A Nuan and her brother have always had a good relationship. Nowadays, after seeing Ning Lang, A Nuan must be very happy. So he nodded in response.
"Just listen to my king's orders."
Jiang Yunlan was happy now.
Then immediately afterwards, she unceremoniously drove An Wang out without even leaving him a cup of tea.
Chu Fei was shocked. He didn't expect her to turn his face so quickly. He stood at the gate of Ning Mansion, looked up at Ning Mansion and looked at the word Ning Mansion for a long while, then turned to look at the Xu family's old house not far away. This will soon become him. New house. Chu Fei thought about the preparations for the new house in his heart, and then finally he was relieved and happily shook his fan and left.
Ning Lang slept till the night, and finally woke up after the moon at Shaotou.
He lay on the bed, reminisced about the comfort of the big bed at home, touched his stomach, and felt hungry again. Only then did he finally get up and head slowly to the front hall.
It just so happened that Ning's family had just started dinner. Ning Lang sat down in a familiar position and talked with Ning Yanting affectionately.
Ning Yanting hadn't seen him for a long time, so he was naturally very happy. After drinking two glasses of wine, he couldn't help asking: "It's good, why did you come back suddenly?"
Ning Lang: "..."
Ning Lang looked away, his chopsticks picked up a piece of fish, carefully spit out the bones, and then swallowed.
In the work of picking the fishbone, he seemed to be mentally prepared before he made up his mind, put down his chopsticks, raised his head and solemnly said to Ning Yanting and Jiang Yunlan: "Father, mother, I have one thing to tell you."
Jiang Yunlan clicked in her heart.
Ning Lang: "I want to marry someone."
The chopsticks in Jiang Yunlan's hand fell to the ground.
Everyone immediately looked at her.
Jiang Yunlan lowered her head and coughed, and took the new chopsticks handed over by the maid, and then said faintly: "We will talk about this after dinner."
She is really worried that she won't be able to finish this dinner.
The breath that Ning Lang raised up suddenly vented. He picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat.
Ning Nuan looked at the two people left and right, but said nothing.
Ning Yanting didn't know anything, and happily talked about the gift he had sent to Zhu Hanshan earlier.
"I saw the gift you gave to Hanshan. It turned out to be a tiger skin. I heard Hanshan say that you did it yourself?"
Ning Lang should be.
"If you haven't seen you for a few months, you have become so powerful. You could not even beat a dog before, but now it's better. You can kill a tiger!"
Ning Lang thought to himself: In fact, he just made a fist while taking advantage of the chaos.
It's just that in front of friends, I naturally brag about it.
Ning Lang raised his eyes to see Ning Yanting's happy expression, biting his chopsticks and falling into entanglement again.
His father always wanted him to find a gentle and virtuous girl. If he let his father know that he was going to marry a woman who could kill a tiger, he would faint, right?
If you let your mother know, wouldn't you have to beat him personally?
I just don't know which of his mother's beatings or that tigress hurts.
