"What are you doing here?"

In the backyard of the Nangong family, Nangong Tianxing looked at Nangong Ling who was standing in front of him, and asked viciously.

Behind Nangong Ling, Nangong Ji, who was originally just a lackey of himself, looked respectful, showing a happy and loyal look to his unfilial daughter.

Not long ago, Nangong Ji also showed such a loyal dog-like look to himself.

"My daughter hasn't been visiting for a while, how is my father doing lately?" Nangong Ling's voice was low and soft, very pleasant.

However, in Nangong Tianxing's ears, this voice was full of mockery, and it sounded extremely harsh.

"I'm so good, I don't need you beast to pretend to care. He said coldly.

"A few days ago, my daughter saw her brother on the battlefield in Xiqi. Nangong Ling smiled slightly, not caring at all about Nangong Tianxing's bad attitude.

Nangong Tianxing was stunned when he heard this, he didn't know what medicine was sold in Nangong Linggourd, and he didn't answer.

"Daddy, do you know that the general Yu Xuanji, who guards the border of northern Xinjiang, is actually a young girl. Nangong Ling said unhurriedly, as if he was gossiping.

"Oh?" Rao is Nangong Tianxing tried his best to put on an arrogant posture, and there was still a hint of surprise on his face, but he quickly came back to his senses and put his face up again, "Yu Xuanji is male or female, what does it have to do with me?"

"Daddy, haven't you forgotten that my brother is serving in the Zhenbei Army?" Nangong Lingsu covered his lips with his hand and smiled slightly, "Can't you guess the reason?"

"This bastard boy!" Nangong Tianxing is also a smart person, and instantly understood what Nangong Ling meant, and couldn't help but scold fiercely, "For the sake of a woman, I don't even want a home." ”

However, in his tone, he could hear a bit of pampering and helplessness, which was completely different from the viciousness when he insulted Nangong Ling.

The daughter also persuaded her brother to leave the army and come back to inherit the family business. Nangong Ling sighed lightly and said, "However, my brother is happy, and if he doesn't wait for him to return with a beauty, I'm afraid he won't come back." ”

"What the hell do you want to say?" Nangong Tianxing gradually became impatient.

"Now the Xiao family has fallen. Nangong Ling smiled slightly, "My daughter's purpose has been achieved, I was going to give up the position of head of the family to my brother, but he didn't want to return to the imperial capital, but I wonder if my father is interested in taking charge of the Nangong family again?"

"Why, do you know how difficult it is to run a big family?" Nangong Tianxing was quite surprised, thinking that Nangong Ling had a request for himself, and couldn't help but show a proud look, "At this time, you remembered me, the real family master?"

"So that the master knows that since the eldest lady became the head of the family, the Nangong family's industry has increased by more than thirty percent compared with the original. Nangong Ji suddenly spoke, "Recently, the eldest lady has recruited a lot of masters, and the overall business situation of the family is more than twice as good as when the master was the head of the family." ”

"You...... You dog stuff that eats inside and out!" Nangong Tianxing was robbed by him like this, his face turned blue with anger, and he scolded.

"If the father is unwilling to take over, then the daughter will have to choose another person from the family to be the head of the family. Nangong Ling said it lightly, and in his words, he actually regarded the position of the head of the wealthy family in the imperial capital as if he were a disobedient person.

"You don't have to ask me who you like. Nangong Tianxing sneered.

"If it is according to the blood relationship, since no one in our long house is willing to inherit the family business, the position of the head of the family should fall to the second house. Nangong Ling said unhurriedly, "So the first choice in my daughter's heart is the second uncle, I don't know what my father wants?"

"That bastard boy who only knows how to play with women?" Thinking of the scene where Nangong Lin was the head of the family, Nangong Tianxing only felt his heart beating, and his voice was unconsciously an octave higher, "Evil animal, are you planning to destroy the Nangong family?"

"If my father thinks that the second uncle is not talented enough, it is difficult to support this family. Nangong Ling smiled slightly, "That daughter has a more suitable candidate, over the years, most of the family's internal affairs have been handled by Uncle Ji, if you talk about management ability, I'm afraid no one can beat it, why don't you give him the position of the head of the family?"

"What! Are you going to give up the Nangong family to this traitor?" Hearing that Nangong Ling was going to pass on the position of family master to Nangong Ji, Nangong Tianxing suddenly jumped like thunder, "You, are you going to be angry with me?"

If Nangong Lin only made Nangong Tianxing feel contempt and distrust, then handing over the family to Nangong Ji, who was once just a lackey by his side, completely touched his bottom line and completely aroused the strongest rejection in his heart.

As a veteran aristocrat in the imperial capital, he couldn't bear this scene of serfs turning over and singing no matter what, just thinking about it in his mind for a while, he felt nauseous and nauseous, which was physically unacceptable.

"The daughter also knows that Uncle Ji is not the direct line of the main family. Nangong Ling pretended to be helpless and said, "In addition to Daddy, only Uncle Ji has the ability to take care of the family affairs in an orderly manner, and Daddy is reluctant to go out of the mountain, and his daughter is also forced to make this decision." ”

Nangong Tianxing's eyes widened, staring fiercely at Nangong Ling's peerless face, his eyes were almost spewing fire, his chest fell together, and his whole body trembled with anger.

After a long time, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence intermittently: "You won, I will take the position of the head of the family." ”

"If the father can understand his daughter's difficulties, then it will be no better. Nangong Ling's tone was calm, and he was not surprised at all by Nangong Tianxing's compromise.

"But I have one condition. Nangong Tianxing said suddenly.

"Daddy, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it. Nangong Ling said softly.

"It's okay if you want me to be the head of the house. Nangong Tianxing stretched out his hand and pointed at Nangong Ji who was standing behind her, "But this traitor must leave the Nangong family, and I will never work with him." ”

"Daddy, don't worry. Nangong Ling seemed to have expected it, and replied without hesitation, "Uncle Ji will not stay, his errand, his daughter has her own arrangements." ”

"You're really at a loss. Seeing that Nangong Ling agreed so simply, Nangong Tianxing knew that this request he made had already been expected by the other party, and he suddenly felt bored, "I will take care of the Nangong family, if there is nothing else, then hurry up!"

"My daughter is going to leave the imperial capital in a few days, and my father should take care of herself. Nangong Ling rarely showed a hint of solemnity, "If you encounter any difficulties, just come to Qingfeng Mountain to find me." ”

With that, she moved her jade foot, turned around and left Nangong Tianxing's residence without looking back

"What are you doing staying?" Nangong Tianxing looked at Nangong Ji, who had not left, and shouted, "Why don't you get out of here?" ”

"Master, sometimes I really envy you. Nangong Ji sighed and said slowly, "Being able to give birth to such an outstanding pair of children." ”

"Are you sarcastic about me?" Nangong Tianxing narrowed his eyes and said gloomily.

"Definitely. Nangong Ji smiled slightly, "Whether it is the eldest young master or the eldest lady, they are all rare geniuses in a thousand years, especially the intelligence of the eldest lady, which is really only seen in her life, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a demon." ”

"She promised you a lot of good. Nangong Tianxing sneered and said, "You naturally want to praise her to the sky." ”

"The eldest lady's ability, there is no need to brag about it, the head of the family naturally understands it in his heart. Nangong Ji shook his head and said, "What I want to say is that such an outstanding daughter was pushed to the opposite side by you." ”

Nangong Tianxing just stared at him coldly and didn't speak.

"If only you could have accepted the eldest lady sincerely. Nangong Ji continued, "Father and daughter work together, don't say that a small Nangong family wants to seize the whole world, why is it difficult?"

With that, he turned around and pushed open the door, strode out of Nangong Tianxing's residence, and never looked back at him again.

Am I really doing something wrong?

Nangong Tianxing looked at Nangong Ji's departing back in a daze, and couldn't help but fall into deep contemplation.

In the corridor outside the door, a slender figure stands vividly, like a delicate sculpture in the sunlight, which looks extremely beautiful.

"Miss. Nangong Ji's eyes swept over the messenger bird bouncing on Nangong Ling's shoulder, and called respectfully.

"Uncle Ji, it seems that the time for us to leave is going to be moved back. Nangong Ling put down the letter paper in his hand and said slowly.

"What's wrong?" Nangong Ji couldn't help but ask.

"His Majesty the Emperor is ill. Nangong Ling handed the letter in his hand to Nangong Ji, "It is said that he has fallen into a coma, and he doesn't know who he is." ”

"How could a saint have a spiritual cultivator, how could he fall ill?" Nangong Ji's face showed an incredible expression.

In order to reach the realm of Lingzun, the body structure is already completely different from that of ordinary humans, and if it is not for the action of external forces, it is almost impossible to get sick, so when he heard that Li Jiuye was sick, his first reaction was disbelief.

"Whether the emperor himself is sick or harmed. Nangong Ling's eyes flashed, "The situation in the imperial capital will usher in violent shocks, and we must prepare early." ”

......

In front of a small three-story building two streets away from the main road in the eastern part of the imperial capital, there is a red plaque engraved with four glittering characters.

Shun! Feng! Delivery!

The lacquer of the building, which shimmers in the sun, has clearly recently undergone a renovation, and there are many flower baskets in front of the door, giving it a festive atmosphere when the new store opens.

Here, after listening to the opinions of Zhong Wen and Shangguan Mingyue and others, Thirteen Niang carefully selected the headquarters for the Liangshan heroes to engage in the delivery business.

The land price of the imperial capital is far from being comparable to any other city, although Dongcheng District is much cheaper than Xicheng District, where the powerful gather, Thirteen Niang still tried her best, and on the basis of using almost all her family funds, she borrowed a sum of money from Shengyu Commercial Bank to win this small building.

At this time, in the reception room on the second floor, Thirteen Niang was entertaining a new guest with a smile, and Coral was also standing obediently aside, serving tea and pouring water for the guests.

"Miss Zhu, we can be regarded as having a one-sided relationship. The guest looked to be in his forties, thin and handsome, but there was a bit of a gloomy aura between his eyebrows, "I don't know if you remember?"

"Please forgive the slave's clumsiness, the distinguished guest is ......" Thirteen Niang had already recalled the appearance of this person, but did not know his name, so as not to be embarrassed, she deliberately pretended not to remember.

"Lonely is the prince Li Yan. The middle-aged man replied.

"The people have seen His Royal Highness the Prince. Thirteen Niang was taken aback, quickly stood up, and bowed her knees.

"No need to be polite. Li Yan stared closely at Thirteen Niang's beautiful face and graceful figure, and a scorching and greedy light shot out of his eyes, as if he wanted to swallow the charming and charming beauty in front of him.

"Your Highness is here, and the small shop is full of light. Thirteen Niang said respectfully, "I don't know what kind of goods Your Highness is here to transport?"

"Miss Zhu, are you from Liangshan?" Li Yan did not answer, but asked.

Thirteen Niang was shocked, and faintly had an ominous premonition, and she didn't dare to answer casually for a while.

"You don't have to worry. Li Yan showed a gentle smile on his face, "Lone knows that the rebellion is Song Hai's arbitrary act, and you haven't participated much, so naturally I won't care about you." ”

"His Royal Highness is kind-hearted and magnanimous, which is really a blessing to the people. Thirteen Niangyan said perfunctorily insincerely.

"Lone came here this time to ask you for a favor. Li Yan got straight to the point.

"I don't know what His Highness commands?" said Thirteen Niang with a sincere face, "As long as she can, the folk girl will never refuse." ”

"With your words, I am relieved that this matter is not difficult for you. Li Yan was quite satisfied with Thirteen Niang's respectful attitude.

"Please also show your Highness. ”

"I need you to come forward to point out that Li Qing, the Prince of Zhengwu, and the Shangguan father and daughter of Shengyu Commercial Bank once colluded with the Liangshan bandits to assist the Xiao family in rebellion. ”

Li Yan's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, setting off a storm in Thirteen Niang's heart.
