The progress of the task has now exceeded 40%, and Ren Jia has received a lot of posts from her when her mood has improved, from visiting the garden, appreciating flowers, celebrating birthdays to worshipping Buddha in temples, there are always many things, but in a month, the reputation of the eighth princess has started in the circle of Yaojing noblewomen, although there are also some rumors that slander her, but on the whole, most of them are positive.

Ning Haoyan felt that the relationship with Ren Jia had improved a lot, thinking that the two of them were going to return to their previous life of talking and sending things, but who knew that since the flower viewing banquet in the Guanyang Hou Mansion, this woman had been going out to play happily every day.

Unless he took the initiative to go to the main courtyard, the two would not have a chance to meet at all, and of course, he was absolutely unwilling to bow his head first. So, when the two couldn't meet at all, he began to have all kinds of chance encounters with Ren Jia, once or twice, Ren Jia thought that Ning Haoyan was a thief to Ran Shirong and planned to create a chance to get close to the beauty, but after participating in several activities without Ran Shirong, Ning Haoyan always met her by chance, and Ren Jia finally knew where he came from that task progress that was now more than 75%.

While she couldn't cry or laugh, another round of turmoil has been set off in Yaojing City because of Ning Haoyan's behavior, now it is where the eighth princess goes, where the eighth princess goes, you and the princess say a few more words and get closer, this prince will stare at you deadly, looking like a jealous husband who wants to be dissatisfied.

For a while, the entire Yaojing applauded Ren Jiayufu's methods, this eighth princess has only been married for more than half a year, and she has adjusted the eight princes' obedience, not to mention that this prince has other beloved women in his heart before marriage, such a method is really shocking.

Ren Jia had a headache after determining Ning Haoyan's intentions, as a tasker, she would not have emotional entanglements with the task object at all, as for Jian Leqing, she would naturally not have any reaction during the period of dormancy in Ren Jia's body, after much consideration, Ren Jia still planned to solve the task of becoming a talent first.

"You said I would join the hussars with General Gu Xiao?" Ning Haoyan couldn't help but raise his voice.

"Hussar guards are the close army of the Son of Heaven, since the prince is so idle every day, why don't you go to the military camp to exercise well, you can not only serve your father and queen mother, but also learn some skills." Ren Jia took a sip of tea and hugged the stove in his arms, it was winter now, and it had been snowing for half a month recently, the weather was really cold, Jian Leqing's body was afraid of cold, and even with Ren Jia, he couldn't help but stay in the room every day and didn't want to go out.

After finding that the task process was stuck at 75% and couldn't move, Ren Jia determined that it was because the task of Chengcai had not been done and the guide had delayed the progress, she went to the Gu Mansion several times, although Mrs. Gu was willing to help, but the little generals of the Gu family were not very appreciative, she begged the little general Gu for a long time, and talked with the emperor and queen a few times before finally determining the position of the hussar guard.

"Are you disgusted that this king has no ability?" Although Ning Haoyan also practiced martial arts, she was not very keen on joining the army, and now when Ren Jia said this, she only disliked herself.

"The prince is indeed a noble status, but it is also a fact that he has not made any achievements." Ren Jia told the truth unceremoniously, although Ning Haoyan didn't like to hear it.

"You woman is really an inch! I don't know what to do! Ning Haoyan was angry, any man who was told by his wife that he couldn't bear it, not to mention that he had become more and more tolerant of this woman recently, he didn't believe that she didn't know his mind, and now he actually said so, sure enough, it was because he spoiled her that she began to be lawless, she was really a woman who couldn't get on the stage!

"If the prince wants to be looked up to, he has to show some merit to speak." Ren Jia turned the teacup in his hand, still with the same smile as before, not moved by Ning Haoyan's embarrassment and anger, "Since ancient times, wives have relied on their husbands, and the prince is the face and reliance of the concubine, and the concubine naturally cares about the future of the prince." ”

"This king sees that you care more about your wealth and power!" Ning Haoyan smiled coldly, and suddenly felt that he had never seen this woman clearly, a woman who was not satisfied with her husband's identity as the prince probably wanted more, but unfortunately he couldn't sit in that position, otherwise this woman would definitely have some more crazy thoughts.

"If the prince thinks so, it will be more comfortable, and the concubine doesn't mind." Ren Jia put down the teacup, put on his crane, packed up and prepared to go out, "The concubines inside and outside the palace have been taken care of, the prince should go to the hussar guard to report as soon as possible, General Gu Xiao is strict, presumably the prince will suffer some hardships, the concubine will inform the prince here first, I hope the prince will cherish himself." ”

"If this king really goes, he just wants to go, if it is not because of the instigation of you woman, this king wants to see what else you want to do!" Ning Haoyan looked at the woman who stepped out of the door with a gloomy expression, how good she used to be, and now she feels how disgusting she is, it is nothing more than a woman who climbs the dragon and the phoenix, if it weren't for her identity, she must not have married at all!

Ren Jia smiled slightly, and slowly walked out of the front yard in the gloomy sky and heavy snow, just now, her task progress jumped another 1%.

Whether it was to be angry with Ren Jia or really planned to make some achievements, Ning Haoyan went directly to the hussar guard's northern camp the next day, and after not returning to the palace or sending anyone back for three consecutive days, Ren Jia finally determined that Ning Haoyan was determined to have trouble with her.

After calling Wu Kangsheng to make sure that Ning Haoyan was served, Ren Jiaren prepared clothes and food, thinking that the cold weather and army drills were inevitably hard, and he added a lot of extra things and ordered people to send them to the Beida camp overnight, as for what kind of charter Ning Haoyan was over there, she didn't care after she finished it, and now that the progress of the task is slowly increasing, she still has other things to solve.

Regarding how to deal with the third prince, the fifth prince, the sixth prince and the seventh prince, Ren Jia had already calculated that Ning Haoye, as the son of luck, would inevitably ascend to the throne in the future, and what these people were pursuing was nothing more than the flower in the mirror, and she could kindly help these people to wake up from their dreams earlier.

The reason why Ren Jia was keen to go out to participate in various activities a while ago was that on the one hand, he hoped to make a good name for Jian Leqing, and on the other hand, he hoped to find some useful clues from the mouths of these noble ladies.

Whether it is the case of dredging the river in the open nullah in Yuzhou, or the case of salt favoritism in the state, including the rumors of the third prince's brother-in-law wantonly accumulating slaves in Yuzhou, these are enough to make those princes anxious, after all, it is not a good thing to be too bold and stretch out too long, although Emperor Yongde is not a Shengming monarch, but he is not so mediocre as to let the courtiers make trouble.

After Ren Jia determined the value of the information in his hands, he decided to find a suitable opportunity to reveal some rumors to Ning Haoye.

Just as Ren Jia watched the progress of the task increase day by day, the opportunity she was looking forward to soon came.

From Huang Ying Zike's mouth, she learned that the Nine Princes held a banquet in Suiweilou today to entertain the students for next year's spring exam, she was ready to arrive at Suiweilou early, ordered the box where several people were together last time, and asked people to leave a message to Ning Haoye, so she sat upstairs and watched the students downstairs dance and write.

"It's really rare, the imperial sister-in-law is actually willing to invite me to drink, I think the imperial brother invited me several times, but the imperial sister-in-law refused to appreciate her face." Ning Haoye put on an aggrieved face when he entered the door, complaining bitterly that Ren Jia had rejected his banquet several times before.

"The ninth brother laughed, if it weren't for the coincidence, how could I refuse, it's just that I had already made an appointment with other ladies before, so it was inconvenient to go." Ren Jia made an excuse at will, anyway, she didn't want to go from the bottom of her heart, even if Ning Haoye knew that she was lying, she couldn't blame her sister-in-law for not going to her brother-in-law's banquet.

"The imperial sister-in-law just doesn't care about me, so she has refuted my face many times." Ning Haoye sat down opposite Ren Jia Shi Ran with a playful look in his eyes.

"If the ninth brother thinks so, it really makes me sad, I am the same as your imperial brother, I care most about your younger brother in my heart, if the ninth brother still cares, I will make amends to the ninth brother here with tea instead of wine." Ren Jia picked up the teacup and drank it all to show his sincerity.

"The imperial sister-in-law has moved the imperial brother out, how dare I be angry," Ning Haoye took the teacup in Ren Jia's hand, helped someone refill a cup of warm tea and handed it over, "The imperial sister-in-law invited me to come today, there must be something to discuss, right?" But why don't you see the royal brother? ”

"The prince is still practicing in the Peking University camp, and it is inconvenient to go out of the camp, as a princess, I naturally have to work hard for him." Ren Jia took the teacup handed by Ning Haoye lightly, avoided his hand, and looked at the Ninth Prince with a calm look, and tried to tease her several times, which was a little too much.

Seeing that Ren Jia's face was a little solemn, Ning Haoye finally restrained his cynical style and took out the posture of talking about business, "What did the imperial sister-in-law want to talk about when she called me this time?" ”

"Naturally, Ninth Brother, the thing you think about the most," Ren Jia smiled slightly, his expression calm, "I have heard some interesting news recently, and I think that Ninth Brother may care, so I plan to talk to Ninth Brother." ”

"Imperial sister-in-law, please speak." Ning Haoye narrowed his eyes, and his expression was no longer frivolous just now.

"A few days ago, when I was out playing, I happened to hear someone talk about this," Ren Jia stretched out his hand and dipped the water in the teacup and wrote a few words on the table, seeing that Ning Haoye was indecisive, he slowly wrote a few more words, and immediately took out a silk handkerchief and wiped it clean after seeing that people finished reading, "So, is the ninth brother still satisfied?" ”

"The imperial sister-in-law's accident is interesting, and there are few people in the capital who are as well-informed as the imperial sister-in-law," Ning Haoye looked at the dried water trail and smiled slightly, "What is the purpose of the imperial sister-in-law to tell me such important news?" ”

"Since I am willing to tell the ninth brother the news, it is naturally because what the ninth brother has done is closely related to me, if the ninth brother does not believe it, he can send someone to carefully check it." Ren Jia poured himself another cup of tea and took a sip, looking smug and complacent, "If the ninth brother plans to make a move, I can help at that time." ”

"I remember that Lord Jian never wanted to be involved in these things," Ning Haoye raised his eyebrows, looking at Ren Jia's eyes very delicately, "If it weren't for that, the imperial sister-in-law and Xuan Guiren would not ......"

"You don't have to worry about these things for the ninth brother, my father has indeed never been involved in these things, naturally, he will not help you when the time comes," Ren Jia directly put the truth in front of him, saving Ning Haoye from pulling Jian's father into the water when the time comes, these princes who have taken the heir do not have a fuel-efficient lamp, "I naturally have a way to help the ninth brother, and when the time comes, I hope that the ninth brother will take the lead in one fell swoop, so that I will not bother so much." ”

"The imperial sister-in-law values me so much, how can I be willing to disappoint the imperial sister-in-law." Ning Haoye looked at Ren Jia with deep meaning, raised his hand and took the cup of tea that Ren Jia had just dipped in writing and drank it all, "In this way, can the imperial sister-in-law rest assured of my sincerity?" ”

What is this! Ren Jia was instantly disgusted by Ning Haoye's actions, this guy is really unhygienic, and he doesn't have to work so hard to tease her.

Ning Haoye was amused by Ren Jia's surprised and disgusted expression, and his mood that was originally a little annoyed because of his impulsive and abrupt actions just now instantly calmed down, after all, seeing that the other party reacted more violently than himself really had the effect of relieving the embarrassment.

"Since the ninth brother already has a plan, then I will take the first step, there are still a lot of things in the house that need to be taken care of, I will go back to the house first." Ren Jia found that Ning Haoye was also a problem, so he naturally didn't want to stay longer, so he planned to go out after gathering the big man.

"Imperial sister-in-law stay, I also have an interesting story here that I want to share with the imperial sister-in-law," Ning Haoye got up and stopped in front of Ren Jia, with a smile on his face, "Imperial sister-in-law, do you know that I have recently met Master Liaoyuan of Anguo Temple?" ”

"So what?" Ren Jia was unmoved.

"I heard a very interesting thing from Master Liaoyuan, presumably the imperial sister-in-law also knows what this matter is, and more coincidentally, I saw something in my father's study," Ning Haoye slowed down his speech, slowly approached Ren Jia's cheek, and picked up her scattered hair and sniffed lightly, "The marriage contract between the imperial sister-in-law and the imperial brother is really interesting." ”

Ren Jia took a step back, pulled her hair back from Ning Haoye's hand, looked seriously at the man in front of her who tried to tease her several times, and smiled calmly, "The ninth brother is really well-informed, but these things have nothing to do with the ninth brother, what are the plans of the ninth brother to say these things at this moment?" ”

"I don't have any plans, but I just think it's a pity, if the imperial sister-in-law had chosen someone else, it must have been much easier at this moment." The others in Ning Haoye's mouth undoubtedly refer to himself, Ren Jia is simply heartbroken, you are not the object of my task, you are a good use.

"The ninth brother really likes to laugh, it's getting late, it's inconvenient for me to accompany me, let's go first." Ren Jia is really too lazy to deal with this Nine Princes, she has a bad premonition, if she continues, it may affect the fate line of the Son of Luck, and when the time comes, her task rewards will be affected, which is simply abusive.

"Why is the imperial sister-in-law so afraid of me?" Ning Haoye took a step forward and continued to block Ren Jia's way, the corners of her eyebrows and eyes were full of spring, "If the imperial sister-in-law wants to find a support, you might as well consider how about me?" ”

Are you in the corner of your brother's wall? Ren Jia was laughed at by Ning Haoye's behavior, she really laughed, looking at Ning Haoye's eyes was like looking at a neurosis, she slowly circled around Ning Haoye, Ning Haoye's eyes became brighter and brighter with her footsteps, until Ren Jia said with a happy face, "I'm sorry, ninth brother, I don't like men who are more beautiful than me." ”

"What did you say?" Ning Haoye's expression changed drastically, and he could barely hold back his beautiful face.

"I said," Ren Jia looked at him with pity, "I hate men who are prettier than me, so I can't let you stand next to me." ”

"Why do you want to be so happy with my sister-in-law," Ning Haoye lowered his smile and looked cold, "Since I am willing to be honest with my sister-in-law, my sister-in-law doesn't have to humiliate me like this." ”

Ren Jia sighed, patted Ning Haoye's shoulder with pity, didn't say anything more, turned around and put on his big and walked out of the Suiwei Building.

Ning Haoye was in a mixed mood, and went out with an ugly expression after being silent in the box for a while, Ren Jia's style just now undoubtedly showed that she was telling the truth, she really didn't like a beautiful man like herself.

Unexpectedly, one day being good will become the reason why others don't like you, Ning Haoye returned to his palace with a heart stop.

Since the last time she broke up with Ning Haoye, Ren Jia has never gone anywhere except for the palace, the palace and the Jian Mansion, and even when she meets Ning Haoye on the road, she has to avoid it from afar, so as to save this son of luck from affecting her task rewards.

In the blink of an eye, Ning Haoyan had been in Beidaying for two months, and Ren Jia's task progress had also progressed to 88%, and it was almost the New Year, she was preparing for the New Year in the mansion, Wu Kangsheng came in a hurry, and saw that Ren Jia was still commanding his subordinates to take care of the prince's study, and his expression was a little ugly.

"Princess, it's not good," Wu Kangsheng trotted to Ren Jia's side, lowered his voice and spoke, "The prince said that he would stay at Beidaying for the New Year and would not return to the mansion." ”

Ren Jia waited for Wu Kangsheng to breathe smoothly before he calmly spoke, "What's wrong with this, the prince is concerned about official business, and he doesn't want to waste it during the New Year, we should be happy." ”

"Princess!" Wu Kangsheng really couldn't understand what the princess was thinking at this time, he cared about the prince in everything before, and the relationship between the two was much closer than before, but since the prince went to the North Daying, the two have not met again, the prince is unwilling to go back to the house, and the princess never goes to the North Daying to visit, and the whole palace is clean and excessive for a while.

"Okay, Concubine Ben knows it in her heart, you better go first to see how the New Year's goods are prepared, remember to pick out more good things, and send them to the prince in a few days." Ren Jia waved his hand to stop Wu Kangsheng from wanting to say more, signaling that he didn't want to listen to it anymore at the moment.

In fact, she is very satisfied with the current situation, the task is almost completed, Ning Haoyan is far away from her, and it will save the two of them from being entangled in the future, perhaps, it will not take three years at all, and she will be able to complete the task by tomorrow spring.

After Ren Jia determined that Ning Haoyan would not return to the royal mansion for the New Year, he decided to spend this Chinese New Year's Eve with Jian's father in the Jian Mansion, and after entering the palace to worship the emperor with the nobles on the twenty-third of the New Year, Ning Haoyan, who had not seen him for a long time, attended the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the palace on the twenty-fifth.

Ning Haoyan just glanced at her lightly after seeing her, not as calm as before, and there was no enthusiasm in his eyes, as if the impulsive and short-tempered person Ren Jia was familiar with in the past had disappeared, Ren Jia was very satisfied with this situation, even if Ning Haoyan's expression was cold when the two walked together, it did not affect her good mood, and she chatted with people with sweet smiles along the way. Seeing that she stopped talking to the same person, Ning Haoyan just found a comfortable position to stand next to her, and stared at people as urgently as before, Ren Jia was unwilling to test his patience, so he said a few words and left.

At the banquet in the palace, Ren Jia helped Ning Haoyan pour wine and prepare food as usual, without pretending to be the hand of the maid, Ning Haoyan glanced at her indifferently, and then concentrated on appreciating the singing and dancing in the palace, Ren Jia noticed that Ning Haoyan had never seen the direction of Ran Shirong during the period, and was a little unsure whether he really put it down, and when the singing and dancing stopped, he leaned into Ning Haoyan's ear and whispered, "Lord, I heard that my father intends to give Miss Ran to marry the ninth brother, what is the prince's plan for this matter?" ”

Ning Haoyan glanced at her unexpectedly at this time, but he didn't show much of a look for speculation, and said in a flat voice, "Since it is the intention of the father, it naturally has his reason, not for you and me." ”

"The concubine can save herself." Ren Jia carefully observed a few times to make sure that he didn't find anything strange, and finally put his mind at ease, as long as Ning Haoyan didn't hold on to Ran Shirong's crooked neck tree, there would naturally be a big forest waiting for him to appreciate.

Ning Haoye watched the two talk intimately from a distance, remembering the reason why Ren Jia rejected him that day, he was undoubtedly the most outstanding among all the brothers, and he was more loved by women than Ning Haoyan's handsomeness, but it was a pity that Ren Jia rejected him mercilessly because he was good-looking.

In fact, he may not like this imperial sister-in-law very much, but there is always something on the other party that makes him moved, and last time he just started to flirt with him, who knew that Ren Jia was the general of the army, which made him feel a little depressed when he remembered that incident now. However, seeing that the imperial brother's attitude was much colder than a while ago, and remembering the news that only he knew, his heart was finally much happier, and he was now waiting to see the day when this imperial brother knew the true face, and it must be very interesting at that time.

Ren Jia saw Ning Haoye staring at them with a weird smile in the distance, and couldn't help but lower his head and roll his eyes, this brain circuit of the son of luck is really peculiar, fortunately it is not the object of her task.

After the night banquet in the palace, Ning Haoyan went back to Beidaying directly without leaving a word, Ren Jia also returned to the palace in a comfortable mood, the task was about to be completed, and the reward was about to arrive, how could she be unhappy.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, Ren Jia spent directly with Father Jian in the Jian Mansion, and after telling all about what he had done recently, Father Jian patted her shoulder seriously, "You still don't change your original intention?" Actually, the eighth prince is not bad. ”

"The daughter's mind is the same as before, and the father doesn't have to worry." Ren Jia held Father Jian's hand and signaled that he would not change his mind.

Father Jian was helpless, he knew this daughter's stubbornness, so he had to let her make her own decisions.
