The two chatted for a while, and the steward of the Qin family came over to invite Nangong Mo over, saying that the head of the Qin family had been invited. Nangong Mo was a little surprised, she had been friends with Qin Zixu and Qin Xi for a while, and even prescribed medicine for Qin Xi to treat her illness, but the head of the Qin family had never seen her in person. The only impression of the head of the Qin family is that he has only seen it from afar a few times in a few palace banquets. I only feel that he is a middle-aged man who is as gentle and elegant as Qin Zixu, but his momentum is far from being comparable to the current Qin Zixu. From some of the news I heard before, it can be seen that this Qin family head who is not very famous in Jinling City is a rather wise person. At least he is a person who is very suitable for the identity of the head of the Qin family.

Qin Xi was also a little surprised by this, and said to Nangong Mo with a smile: "Presumably my father has something serious to talk to you about, so I won't get in the way." ”

Nangong Mo didn't care, nodded and smiled: "I'll talk to you when I come back." Originally, he wanted to talk to Qin Zixu, but he didn't expect that the head of the Qin family would come forward in person, which was a bit surprising, so it was naturally better. After all, although Qin Zixu is the next generation of the head of the Qin family, he can't completely become the head of the Qin family now. Many things still need the consent of the head of the Qin family.

Following the steward of the Qin family to the outside of the study of the main courtyard of the Qin family, the steward respectfully turned sideways and said, "County Lord, please inside." ”

Nangong Mo nodded slightly, "Thank you." ”

Walking into the study, I saw that the head of the Qin family was already sitting in the study and waiting, and the head of the Qin family was still sitting with Qin Zixu, but he didn't see Jin Hao's figure. Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows, and before he could speak, Qin Zixu got up and said with a smile: "County Lord, Brother Jin is impatient with the atmosphere of the study and went to the martial arts training ground in Xiyuan." Nangong Mo said curiously: "Oh? The Qin family still has a martial arts training ground? ”

Qin Zixu said with a smile: "Although the Qin family is a scholarly family, there are also many children who practice martial arts. ”

"The county lord of Xingcheng, I came to our mansion before, and the old man neglected the county lord because of something, and I ask the county lord to forgive me." The head of the Qin family stood up and said. Nangong Mo was slightly blessed, and said with a light smile: "The head of the Qin family is serious, some trivial matters between juniors, how dare you work as the head of the family?" The head of the family waved his hand and said: "If it weren't for the county lord's action, the little girl would not have the current Antai, and the old man would be grateful." Nangong Mowaner smiled, "With a gesture, the head of the family doesn't have to take it to heart." ”

The two of them understated a few words, but they already understood their respective thoughts. The head of the Qin family was suing Nangong Mo, and the Qin family didn't mind Nangong Mo's revelation of Ruan Yuzhi in the first place. Although Nangong Mo's original incident was actually beneficial to Qin Xi, it did damage the reputation of the Qin family. If Nangong Mo was not in a hurry to deal with Ruan Yuzhi, the Qin family would have a way to solve Ruan Yuzhi in a more secretive way.

Similarly, Nangong Mo was also suing the Qin family that she didn't plan to use the previous things to exchange any benefits or favors with the Qin family.

A hint of appreciation flashed in the eyes of the head of the Qin family, and he said with a smile: "County Lord, please sit down and speak." ”

Soon someone brought tea and withdrew silently. There were only two fathers and sons of the Qin family and Nangong Mo in the study, Nangong Mo sat on the guest seat and drank tea calmly, and did not show the slightest weakness to the father and son of the Qin family who had an extraordinary status. The head of the Qin family looked at his son, looked at Nangong Mo next to him, and sighed secretly in his heart. His son is already extremely good among his peers, but he is still a little worse than the woman of the Lord of Star City.

"The county lord is here... Don't know when? After a long time, the head of the Qin family asked lightly.

Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows and looked at the head of the Qin family with a smile. If the head of the Qin family didn't know what was going on with her, how could he come to see her? It's just that as the patriarch of a big family, even if the head of the Qin family looks like a gentle and humble gentleman, in fact, his thick-skinned face is not comparable to ordinary people. Therefore, Nangong Mo didn't say that he was not in a hurry, he just looked at Nangong Mo with a smile, as if he was looking at a naughty junior.

Nangong Mo shrugged, and didn't care about taking a step first. Said calmly: "Two days ago... I don't know what the head of the Qin family thinks about the affairs in the court? ”

The head of the Qin family held his beard, as if he was a little puzzled, and said, "I don't know what the county lord said?" ”

Nangong Mo lowered his eyes and said softly: "Naturally... The matter of the plague in Lingzhou. ”

The Qin family master's eyes flashed, and he said, "The matter of the plague in Lingzhou... The old man was naturally deeply worried. It's just that... Now that the new emperor is about to ascend the throne, there is such a mess, but I am afraid that it is... When the new emperor frees his hand, he will still investigate this matter to the end. The head of the Qin family looked at Nangong Mo fixedly, as if to ask Nangong Mo again if it was worth it to do this?

Nangong Mo said indifferently: "There are some things... Whether you know it or not, whatever the consequences, someone has to do it, right? ”

The head of the Qin family said with a smile: "The county lord cares about the people, and the old man admires it." ”

Nangong Mo sighed, looked at the head of the Qin family and said, "I think, since the head of the family is willing to see me, naturally he doesn't want to fight with me here?" The smile on the face of the Qin family master paused, and he looked at Nangong Mo Liang for a long time before he sighed and said, "The county lord's intention, the old man understands. It's just that the first emperor is a thorn in the flesh of the family, although the new emperor didn't say anything, but after hearing and witnessing it by the first emperor, he probably won't have any good opinion of us, but he can't spare his hands for the time being. However, if we take the initiative, the new emperor and the regent will not be polite. Thinking of the edict he saw not long ago, the head of the Qin family couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and secretly rejoiced in his heart. If it weren't for the sudden death of the first emperor, I'm afraid that it would be their families who died now. From this point of view, the Qin family and many families in Jinling City are grateful to Xiao Chun.

Nangong Mo lowered his head and took a sip of tea before he said: "The matter of Lingzhou, the head of the family is really... Don't feel guilty? ”

The Qin family's patriarch's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "The old man doesn't understand what the county lord means. ”

Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows and said, "Xiao Chun's arrangement for more than 20 years is indeed amazing. However, at least seven or eight of the top ten families in Jinling were staring at Lingzhou at that time, right? The Qin family master really didn't know what was going on in Lingzhou? Or do you want to make things bigger so that you can pull the emperor's eldest grandson off the horse? ”

"The county lord is cautious!" Qin Zixu said in a deep voice.

"Zixu." The head of the Qin family stopped his son in a deep voice, looked at Nangong Mo and said lightly: "The county lord's words... It's a bit too much. Although the Qin family is not a good family, they can't do such a heartbreaking thing. ”

Nangong Mo pursed his lips and smiled: "The Qin family master and the eldest prince are too nervous, the county lord didn't say that it was all done by the Qin family, but the Qin family didn't report it... Always a fact, right? ”

After a while, Qin Zixu sighed and said, "The county lord's news is also very well-informed. However, this matter really has nothing to do with the Qin family, and the affairs of Lingzhou have always been handed over to the other families to keep an eye on, after all, we have more things to do in Jinling City. My father and I were already ...... when we got the news. ”

"I know, so I'm here to find the Qin family instead of the Lian family and the Yang family." Nangong Modao. If the Qin family could really hide the news of the plague in Lingzhou in order to frame Xiao Qianye, Nangong Mo would not choose to cooperate with the Qin family.

The head of the Qin family looked at Nangong Mo and said: "The old man understands the county lord's intentions, but since the old man is sitting in this position, he has to think about the family, and I ask the county lord to forgive me for this." After all... If you are not careful, you will be accompanied by hundreds of people in the entire Qin family. Seeing Nangong Mo nodding, the head of the Qin family continued: "The county lord is here to help the Qin family deal with the plague in Lingzhou?" I heard that Wei Shizi is still in Lingzhou, is the county lord worried about Shizi? ”

Nangong Mo said: "Although the new emperor and the regent were forced by the remarks of the people to exclude people from going to Lingzhou to help deal with the plague, but... The head of the family must also understand the idea of His Majesty. As for the regent... The regent may have some killer idea, but unfortunately his mind is not on the plague. The younger generation has just received the news that the plague has spread to all parts of Lingzhou, and now there is an extreme shortage of both doctors and medicinal materials. ”

"What does the county lord mean?" The Qin family master frowned.

Nangong Mo said: "Originally, the juniors didn't dare to disturb the Qin family master, but... Now that the medicinal materials on the market have been bought out......" The head of the Qin family frowned, thought for a while, raised his head and said, "Zhu family? Nangong Mo nodded and sighed: "Long before the juniors returned to Beijing, the Zhu family had already purchased a large number of various medicinal materials. It has been secretly shipped to Lingzhou, but ......"

"County Lord, please speak."

"These medicines are leisurely used by the powerful and wealthy in Lingzhou, and in just one month, the price of medicinal materials in Lingzhou and even nearby has increased more than tenfold. Ordinary people and even ordinary small hospitals can't afford to buy medicine at all. And the imperial court... It is simply not possible to raise enough medicinal materials in a short period of time. Nangong Mo said.

Qin Zixu frowned and said in astonishment: "The Zhu family is already rich in the world, and they actually want to take advantage of this time to make a fortune?" The head of the Qin family snorted lightly and said, "In order to support the new emperor before, the Zhu family invested a lot of money. Isn't it time to take it back? "The head of the Qin family has never looked down on the Zhu family, and his tone at this time is naturally not much better.

"It's ridiculous!" Qin Zixu was filled with indignation.

The head of the Qin family didn't have the same righteous indignation as Qin Zixu, he just asked, "Again, if the Qin family helps the county lord, what good will it do to the Qin family?" You must know that if the Qin family makes a move, the first emperor and the regent will inevitably watch the Qin family follow Wei Shizi all the way. To be honest, at the moment... Wei Shizi did not have the capital to let the Qin family bet all the bets for him. ”

Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows and said, "How can this be regarded as helping me and the prince?" Isn't Lingzhou the Lingzhou of Great Xia? The people of Lingzhou are not the people of His Majesty? ”

"It's a pity... The new emperor probably doesn't think so. "The head of the Qin family said.

Nangong Mo said: "What if you add a promise from the lord of this county and the prince?" The head of the Qin family doesn't have to blame me, as long as this matter is handled properly, the Qin family is not in any danger. The Qin family has been passed down for hundreds of years, don't you know the importance of fame? The Qin family lord lowered his eyes and was silent for a moment, and said, "The promise of the prince of Wei and the county lord... The old man remembered. ”

Nangong Mo smiled, "Thank you, family master." ”
