The early spring in Youzhou is still cold and biting, and all that can be seen is the endless withered yellow. However, even so, Nangong Mo's mood was extremely good, and he pulled Wei Junmo out of the city early in the morning to run a horse. Outside the city of Youzhou, there is a flat river, all the way north to cross the Great Wall is the Mobei grassland. There are the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the Tile Spur, the Tatar and other tribes that withdrew from the Central Plains that year. The people of the Saiwai ethnic groups are fierce and ambitious, and they yearn for the prosperity and prosperity of the Central Plains. As soon as he seized the opportunity, he wanted to cross the Great Wall and march into the Guannai. Or when the grassland is not good in the year, there is a lack of food and clothing, and they will also run to the border of Daxia to "beat the grass valley".

Leaving Jinling, the mood was relaxed, and the two ran around the city, seeing that the time was almost up, and then led the horses into the city side by side. Although Youzhou City is not as prosperous as Jinling, it has been used as the capital of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and the area is not small. It is rare to see all kinds of delicate and exquisite things in the south of the Yangtze River in the city, but there are all kinds of furs and precious medicinal materials. Seeing that Nangong Mo was also very excited.

Back at King Yan's Mansion, everyone sat in the hall and talked. Seeing the two of them coming in, Xiao Qianjiong was the first to speak and smiled: "Cousin and sister-in-law, you went out early in the morning?" ”

Nangong Mo smiled lightly: "I was a little curious when I first arrived in Youzhou, so I took Jun Mo out of the city and ran around. ”

King Yan nodded and said, "You just arrived here, and you are not familiar with life, but you are not in a hurry to do anything." Let's take a look around first, and let Qianzhi Qianwei take you there. ”

Nangong Mo said: "Thank you uncle, we all love to walk around, just see for yourself." I don't have to bother with the two cousins. "It's not in Jinling now, Xiao Qianchi and Xiao Qianwei, as the son and son of King Yan, have their own things to do. Xiao Qianchi is already helping King Yan deal with some affairs, Xiao Qianwei and Xiao Qianjiong are not married yet, but they still have to follow Mr. to study.

Xiao Qianwei said with a smile: "My cousin-in-law is polite, how much time can it take to go out?" ”

Nangong Mo smiled indifferently, and said with a roll of his eyes: "Have you had breakfast?" Before they went out, they explained that they would not come for breakfast, "I brought some small snacks from Youzhou back, and my mother will taste them later?" ”

Princess Changping smiled: "We have all used it, it seems that you have used it outside?" ”

Nangong Mo nodded.

King Yan nodded, stood up and said, "In that case, you can speak." Jun Mo, you come to the study with this king. ”

Wei Junmo also got up, nodded towards Nangong Mo and went out behind King Yan.

Soon Xiao Qianchi's three boys also said goodbye to Princess Yan and Princess Changping to do their own things, and only Princess Nangong Mo Changping, Princess Yan Wangfu and Princess Chen were left in the hall. The four of them sat and chatted, and Princess Yan looked at Nangong Mo and asked with some displeasure, "Flawless, the prince told me that you and Jun Mo plan to move out to live?" But what did my aunt do inconsiderately? ”

Nangong Mo pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "Auntie's words are embarrassing to us, and the Yanwang Mansion is naturally all good." It's just that aunt, you also know that Jun Mo and I have a lot of things to do outside, and I am afraid that outsiders who will come in and out in the future will be indispensable. The uncle and the three cousins are naturally nothing, but the ladies of the royal palace always need to avoid it. ”

Princess Yan snorted lightly, pretending to be angry: "You girl, after all, you are still polite to us as an uncle and aunt." The prince also told me, you are not a weak woman who only knows this square inch of the backyard. However, if you want to go, you can leave, but the fifth sister has to stay. ”

Nangong Mo blinked, made an embarrassed appearance and said, "If this is the case, don't others think that we are unfilial to be daughters-in-law." Leaving his mother aside to live on his own? ”

Princess Changping couldn't help but smile, looked at Princess Yan and said, "Okay, third sister-in-law, don't embarrass this girl." In the final analysis, I'm afraid it's still Jun'er's child's idea, that child has a cold temperament and doesn't like many people, but he has to be flawless to bear a reputation. But I won't be polite to the third sister-in-law, the third sister-in-law left me the yard, and I lived on both sides. ”

Princess Yan couldn't help laughing, shook her head and sighed: "That's it, young people have a lot of ideas, and we can't care about it when we get older." It's not that Jun Mo and Flawless are still young, and they can't take care of many things living alone. I don't worry about them running out on their own. However, with the fifth sister here, the prince and I are also relieved. ”

"Thank you aunt for your concern." Nangong Mo said with a smile.

Chen also followed: "My cousin-in-law just came and said that she was leaving, I thought that there would be one more person to accompany me in the future." ”

Nangong Mo said: "Don't worry, our two families must not be far apart, maybe I will come to the door every once in a while to make you feel annoyed." Chen's lips smiled: "Don't you dare, I feel very happy to have my cousin here." ”

Princess Changping asked with a smile: "Speaking of this, what are you planning to do about the house?" ”

Nangong Mo said with a smile: "I have discussed with Jun Mo, there is no one in our family, buy a three-entry yard with a garden and build it." Go back and wait for Changfeng to come, just let him go and take a look. I'm afraid that he is also going to buy a house, and they happen to be together. ”

Princess Yan smiled: "I'm afraid that the house of Sanjin is not enough, I remember... There is a garden on the other side of East Street, which was repaired by a Hanchen in the Northern Yuan Dynasty in the early years, but unfortunately the Northern Yuan Dynasty was gone before it was repaired. That house is Jiangnan style, maybe you and the fifth sister like it. It's empty now. ”

Nangong Mo hesitated, "It's a little big, right?" She and Wei Junmo will definitely not be at home in the future, and Princess Changping lives alone in an empty garden, which is inevitably deserted. Thinking about it again, my mother is also the eldest princess of the dynasty, and if she lives in a three-entry courtyard, it is indeed a little unseemly. Nangong Mo himself is as luxurious as Jichang Garden, living in peace of mind, as simple as a village cottage, can also be comfortable, just care about convenience and comfort, but forget to consider the identity of Princess Changping. Just as he was about to agree, he heard Princess Yan smile and said, "Now it's only your family of three, and you won't be sure in a few years." ”

Nangong Mo was stunned for a moment, and suddenly reacted to the meaning of Princess Yan's words, and her face couldn't help but feel a little hot.

But Princess Changping listened to it, and the smile on her face was even more

The smile on the lord's face became a little more when he heard this, and he nodded with a smile: "The third sister-in-law is right." ”

Nangong Mo also had to nod and said: "Then let's live in the garden, and Jun Mo and I will go and see the garden that my aunt said." Princess Yan nodded and smiled: "That's right, I'll ask the steward to find the owner of the garden and take you to see it." Princess Yan also understood what Nangong Mo and Wei Junmo insisted on moving out for, but she didn't say anything about buying the garden for them. In fact, Princess Yan was also relieved in her heart for such an arrangement, not that she didn't like Nangong Mo and Wei Junmo. It's just that after living together for a long time, it is inevitable that there will be some stumbles. Nangong Mo and Wei Junmo may not feel like they are under the fence, and if they think about it too much, they will inevitably be careful when they get along. It's embarrassing after a long time. It's better to live next to each other, and it's comfortable to talk from time to time.

"Thank you, aunt." Nangong Mo was also not polite, and nodded in thanks.

After accompanying Princess Yan and Princess Changping to speak, Nangong Mo and Chen retired together. Chen opened his mouth to invite Nangong Mo to sit in his courtyard, and Nangong Mo naturally nodded in response. The courtyard of the Chen family and Xiao Qianchi is a two-entry courtyard in the southeast of Yanwangfu, and now Xiao Qianchi only has an infant daughter and a wife and a concubine, and it is not crowded to live in. As soon as they entered the yard, the nurse came with the child in her arms, and the baby lay in swaddling clothes and whimpered and cried. Chen hugged him and looked at it, gently comforted him twice before returning it to the nurse's arms, and explained again.

Nangong Mo looked sideways at Chen's face with a faint expression, but he couldn't see any dislike for this child.

This world is so unfair to women, and there are many bad things to do as a wife. can't be jealous, but also love the concubine's children as their own children. It is not said whether you can do it in private or not, at least on the surface. Looking at Chen's calm expression, Nangong Mo couldn't help but make up for it if Wei Junmo came back with a child... Is he a fool of the little San'er or a face of Wei Junmo?

"Cousin?" After sending the nurse down, Chen looked at Nangong Mo who was sitting in a daze and said softly. For Nangong Mo not showing interest in the child, the Chen family was still somewhat happy. It was almost almost time to enter the door, An's daughter was four months old, but her stomach had not moved, and Chen was not in a hurry. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that King Yan attaches great importance to his nephew and nephew and daughter-in-law, if his cousin-in-law likes this child, An's status in front of the prince and Princess Yan will only be improved a lot.

Fortunately, whether it is Princess Changping or Nangong Mo, they have only done it on the face of this child. This made Chen secretly relieved.

Nangong Mo and Princess Changping naturally wouldn't do such a thing as slapping their wives in the face. If the Chen family has a son-in-law, it would be good to say, but now that the Chen family has no children and no daughters, it may not be a good thing to be too good to the concubine.

Nangong Mo came back to his senses and smiled apologetically at Chen: "I thought of something that made my younger brothers and sisters smile." ”

Chen shook his head and said, "My cousin-in-law has just arrived in Youzhou, but what is there that I am not used to?" Even if you tell me, I was a little uncomfortable when I first came here. Nangong Mo shook his head and smiled: "When I was a teenager, I often walked around outside, but there is nothing I am not used to." ”

"I've heard my mother talk about it, and I really envy my cousin. The farthest I've traveled in my life is probably from Jinling to Youzhou. After coming to Youzhou, he didn't even go abroad at the city gate. Chen sighed. Nangong Mo also knows that most women's lives are like this. Chen's marriage from Jinling to Youzhou can also be regarded as far away, but this is more lonely, her mother's family is thousands of miles away, and the teenage girl took a few subordinates to marry a person who is almost a stranger, and the loneliness and loneliness at the beginning can be imagined.

Nangong Mo also told the Chen family about some things about Jinling, as well as some personnel of the Chen family that he heard about by chance. It's a pity that she doesn't pay attention to these things and doesn't know much. Chen listened to it with relish, and the two got along happily for a while.

The days of the Yan Wangfu are leisurely, there is nothing to worry about, and the daily life is also properly taken care of by Princess Yan and the Chen family, and after a few days, Nangong Mo wonders if he has gained weight. Just when Nangong Mo was bored, Changfeng Gongzi arrived.

Looking at Nangong Mo's shining eyes, Changfeng Gongzi was startled, "Miss Mo... Ben Gongzi knows that his jade tree is in the wind, but you look at me like this... How embarrassing is it to make this son? ”

Nangong Mo glanced at him obliquely, and threw him a disdainful look: His face was full of wind and frost, where did you see that your jade tree was in the wind?

Changfeng Gongzi was unhappy, "Who is this boy for?" Do you know how much effort it took me to transport those things you left behind to Youzhou? "The most important thing is that those things are not actually his! Along the way, if someone robs him, it is estimated that the guy who robbed him will be able to scare himself to death.

Nangong Mo then remembered that he still had a huge amount of property entrusted to Changfeng Gongzi to transport to Youzhou, and he didn't pay the courier fee.

Suddenly said with a smile: "It's hard work for Changfeng Gongzi, come, Zhishu will serve tea to Changfeng Gongzi." ”

Lin Changfeng snorted lightly, "It's pretty much the same, what about Wei Junmo?" ”

Nangong Mo said: "I went out of the city with King Yan." ”

Lin Changfeng took out a thick booklet from his arms and threw it to Nangong Mo and said, "Your dowry, Princess Changping and the property on the bright side of Zixiao Hall have all been sold, a total of 1.42 million taels. This is the roster of your treasures and Wei Junmo's private money, all sent to Youzhou. See for yourself. In addition, according to your instructions, all the books of Jichangyuan were entrusted to the Xie family and stored in the Xie family academy. The people of the Xie Family Academy can use it, you can copy it, and you can get it back when it's convenient for you in the future. ”

"Thank you for your hard work." Nangong Mo casually put the booklet aside, Lin Changfeng said simply, but those things are so many and miscellaneous, Nangong Mo has a headache when he thinks about it, and it is not easy for Lin Changfeng to deal with it so quickly.

Changfeng Gongzi shrugged his shoulders and said, "The good hall you opened is also for the Xie Family Academy."

The money for the Xie Family Academy, I instructed the people over there in Jinling to still send it on time every month. ”

Nangong Mo nodded and asked, "Who bought those properties you handled?" "An industry of more than one million yuan is not something that anyone can take. Lin Changfeng can deal with it so quickly, presumably because he has encountered a big buyer.

Lin Changfeng hooked his lips and smiled: "Zhu family." ”

In the entire Jinling City, only the Zhu family can come up with so much money in one go. Lin Changfeng didn't care who he sold things to, anyway, they could get the silver. However, from this point of view, the Zhu family is really in full swing now.

Nangong Mo was not surprised, and nodded: "The eldest lady of the Zhu family is amazing. "There are really few people in the Zhu family's generation who can handle it, don't look at her, she can't look at Zhu Chuyu's tossing and turning. But she's only capable of getting herself to where she is now, even if the prosperity may be short-lived and false.

Lin Changfeng smiled: "Isn't it? The eldest lady of the Zhu family is more capable than you. The county lord of Xingcheng who was sealed by the emperor was so dignified that you lost it, and as soon as you left, you became the county lord, and now you are going to be called the county lord of Shanjia. ”

Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows, and Lin Changfeng said: "The Zhu family is now the most loyal supporter of His Majesty, and the concubine in the palace is about to give birth, and it is said that it is a boy." As for Zhu Chuyu, he recognized the old man Zhou Xiang as his grandfather, and the old man Zhou Xiang was destroyed by the first emperor's family, and Xiao Qianye was not allowed to give her face. ”

"Can Zhou Xiang take a fancy to the Zhu family?" Nangong Mo was a little surprised, she thought that Zhou Xiang's old man was stubborn, and he would definitely not look down on the Zhu family.

Changfeng Gongzi didn't smile, "People like you more than you, I heard that Miss Mo fainted when she saw those old men for the first time?" ”

"Jun Mo also has general credit." Nangong Mo did not hesitate to give up half of the honor, waved his hand and said: "That's it, just let people stare at Jinling, and we have nothing to do in a short time." Unless Xiao Qianye dares to come to Youzhou. ”

Lin Changfeng nodded and said, "That's what you said, what are your plans now?" ”

Nangong Mo said: "King Yan's meaning Jun Mo naturally wants to go to the army, but before that, he still has to settle these trivial matters." I've looked at a few gardens in the past few days, and two of them are one big and one small, so you bought them together, right? Or do you want to see for yourself? Lin Changfeng's face suddenly fell, "I thought that Miss Mo would kindly take me in, a lonely person." ”

Nangong Mo smiled: "I don't care about it myself, but when the prince of Changfeng meets the person he likes in the future, don't you want to be at home?" ”

Lin Changfeng waved his hand, "I'll talk about it then." "I live alone in a big garden, and when I think about Lin Changfeng, I feel so pitiful, so I don't want it.

Nangong Mo didn't care either, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Feel free, just go back and tell Jun Mo and your mother." "Anyway, the garden is big enough, and I'm not afraid that I won't be able to live there.

"...... people from Zixiao Palace," Nangong Mo asked.

Lin Changfeng said: "This Jun Mo told me before that unless there is intelligence and business, all the killers of Zixiao Hall have been withdrawn to Youzhou. Those who are unwilling to stay will be dismissed to find their own way out, those who are willing to stay and want to join the army can join the army, and those who do not want to join the army can also stay as guards. When you buy a new garden, don't you need guards? "Zixiao Palace's intelligence and business are actually together, business is for intelligence, and while collecting intelligence, doing business to make money by the way.

"There are a total of twenty-eight first-class killers in Zixiao Palace, and one hundred and eight second-rate killers. Fewer than ten people chose to leave, and all of them were at the bottom of the rankings. "Killers are not so easy to do, this is a business with their own lives. Even many top-notch killers don't end well. Many people are desperate to become killers, so most people still know how to choose to have an upright identity and future. Most of those who chose to leave were too young to even understand the pathos of the killer profession.

"What about third-rate killers?"

Lin Changfeng rolled his eyes, "There are no third-rate killers in Zixiao Palace. ”

Nangong Mowan'er smiled and said, "Okay, I'll look at these people and arrange them." What are Changfeng's own plans? ”

Changfeng Gongzi glanced at him with a wooden face, "Am I not working for Miss Mo?" ”

"Don't, I can't afford to be such a high-level subordinate as Changfeng Gongzi." Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Are you going to continue doing business, or do you want to go to the army with us?" Nangong Mo felt that Lin Changfeng would choose the latter, if he really liked business so much, he wouldn't have gone to mix with Wei Junmo in the first place.

Sure enough, Changfeng Gongzi's eyes lit up, touched his chin and said: "Go to the army to play, then you can go to the gate to beat those Northern Yuan barbarians, this son has not killed the Northern Yuan people?" ”

"So?"

"So... Trouble Miss Mo to find another manager by herself. Changfeng Gongzi said with a smile: "My son is going to the battlefield, don't play abacus!" ”

I knew that hard-working and obedient strong men were not so easy to catch.
