Chapter 108: Red Eyes
"Actually, I suspect everyone in the Food Garden, but the one I suspect the most is my father's former second apprentice, Yin Jian." Jian Ning said seriously, "After my father died, not only did he not help Shiweiyuan well, but instead took some people from Shiweiyuan out to set up another door and opened a Baiwei Building, suppressing Shiweiyuan everywhere. So I want to start with Yin Fitness. ”
"Now that you have someone to focus on, it's much easier to look things up. Need me help you with something? Long Zeye nodded and asked.
"I want to know where Yin Jian's money for opening Baiwei Building came from, and who is behind him to support him." Jian Ning said simply and clearly.
In fact, she and Liu Leshan had already suspected that there was someone behind Yin Jian. Because of such a big Baiwei Building, coupled with the luxurious decoration inside, even if Yin Jian started to make money, it would be impossible to open it without eating or drinking every month, so there must be a big financier behind him.
"It's not that difficult, I'll let someone do it right away." Long Zeye thought for a while.
Even if he was in a hurry every day, there were still four or five days away from Yangxin County, and these days were enough for him to find out what was going on.
"By the way, there's one more thing I think I need to tell you." A trace of doubt appeared between Jian Ning's eyebrows, "In the time when the Food Garden was just sealed, and during the time I was imprisoned, Ai Gaoyi's people had secretly sent people to Yangxin County, and his people searched the entire Jian Mansion and the Food Garden, as if they were looking for something. ”
"Moreover, when I went to save Zijin later, Ai Gaoyi asked me to hand over what my father had left me. I don't know what it is, but I don't think what I've been looking for is something useless. ”
"What your dad left you?" Long Zeye's eyes also flashed with solemnity and doubt, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Did your father mention anything important to you before his death?" ”
"Nope." Jian Ning shook her head and said, "Although some of my memories are incomplete, I really don't have any memories I have now. ”
"Forget it, there's no hurry, I'll know one day." Long Zeye didn't want Jian Ning to be distressed, so he said indifferently.
The journey was very smooth, and at noon on the fifth day, Jian Ning and the others arrived at Jian's house. Liu Leshan waited at the door with a few subordinates in the house.
When the carriage arrived, Jian Ning poked her head out in a hurry, with a sweet smile on her face, and shouted, "Senior brother." ”
Long Zeye suddenly had an extremely unhappy feeling in his heart, and glanced at Liu Leshan coldly.
Ye Yan, who was driving in front of the carriage, saw it, and couldn't help but worry about Liu Leshan.
The obvious relationship between the mother and his senior brother seems to be very good, in the eyes of the emperor, he doesn't regard this man as a thorn in the flesh!
"Ning'er, I felt a little uneasy when I received your message before, and I wanted to go to Beijing to find you. I didn't expect you to come back first. Liu Leshan originally wanted to help Jian Ning get out of the carriage, but just wanted to stretch out his hand, but he didn't want to be frightened by Long Zeye's eyes behind him.
Long Zeye took Jian Ning out of the carriage, and said in a tone of surprise: "I will come to Ning'er's affairs in person, and I don't need others to interfere." ”
Liu Leshan suddenly looked a little at a loss and embarrassed, but he still saluted Long Zeye in time.
Jian Ning looked at it from the side, and said with some anger: "Senior brother is my relative, how can he be regarded as an outsider." ”
As he spoke, he stepped forward and picked up Liu Leshan and walked towards the courtyard.
Long Zeye held his breath and hurriedly followed.
The few subordinates who had been kneeling before also got up after everyone had entered the house, and walked inside.
"Senior brother, Zijin's injury should be almost the same, why don't you see her?" Jian Ning found that all the people in the family were outside just now, but she didn't see Ruan Zijin's figure, and asked with concern.
"Zijin's injuries have all healed, and now he is practicing in the backyard? She practiced attentively, so I didn't tell her about what you got to today. Liu Leshan said with a smile.
"Miss, don't you know, Miss Zijin's skills feel even more powerful now than before she was injured!" Xi'er interjected with a smile on the side at this time, "Miss Zijin doesn't care about anything all day, and since she got up in the morning, she has been studying the secrets left by Master Ruan. ”
"Zijin's injury is just right, practicing so hard, aren't you afraid of hurting yourself?" Jian Ning said with some concern, "I'll go see her first." ”
"She is a person who practices martial arts, so she is naturally measured, so why should you worry, you should do your best to solve the important things that came out this time." At this time, Long Zeye, who was in the back, finally couldn't hold back any longer, took a step forward, passed through the middle of Liu Leshan and Jian Ning, and stood directly in front of Jian Ning.
Liu Leshan looked at Long Zeye's expression was not good, and naturally didn't want Jian Ning to anger him. Busy on the side, he said: "Zijin is practicing, it's better not to bother, it's better to talk about things first, she will come to you when she knows you're coming." ”
Jian Ning glared at Long Zeye, frowned and was silent for a moment, "Okay, let's go to Dad's study first." ”
Forget it, when Long Zeye needs to make a move in the future, there is really no need to break with him, just follow his wishes first.
Ye Yan and Qianlan followed behind and watched, and both of them prayed for Liu Leshan in their hearts
Long Zeye, Jian Ning and Liu Leshan entered the kitchen, and the rest of the people were guarding outside.
"Senior brother, think about it carefully, what was Yin Jian doing before his father died? But is there anything suspicious or different from usual? Jane Ning gets straight to the point.
"There's nothing special, it's just that I often ask about Master's condition." Liu Leshan recalled, "No matter how he said it, he is also the master's apprentice, and it is normal to ask often, there is nothing strange." ”
"Where's my dad? Is my dad any different to him? Jian Ning frowned and continued to ask.
"If you put it this way, Master did have a different attitude towards him for a while, but it was more than a year before Master passed away." Liu Leshan glanced at Jian Ning and said, "Ning'er, have you forgotten?" ”
Hearing this, Jian Ning searched hard for the memories in her mind, and now she remembered almost all the original memories of this body, and there was no reason not to remember this matter.
The past flashed in Jian Ning's mind as quickly as a movie, and suddenly Jian Ning's eyes lit up, and he said to Liu Leshan: "I remember, my father was very interested in Yin Jian's cooking skills before, although he did not have extremely high talent, but his diligence made my father feel that he was also a plastic talent in cooking." So when teaching him, he always came little by little, steadily. Because his pace of learning is much slower than others, he often complains, saying that my father is biased, looks down on him, and does not want to teach him at all. ”
"But one day, my father actually gave him all the recipes at once, and in the next few days, he taught him several dishes a day."
"Yes, you and I thought it was very strange at that time, and you ran to ask Master why he suddenly did this, but Master didn't tell us anything." Liu Leshan nodded and said, "Thinking about it now, maybe at that time, the master already knew it in his heart." ”
"Good Yin Jian, I'll go to Baiwei Building to ask him now!" Jian Ning said angrily with a calm face.
"No, Ning'er." Liu Leshan hurriedly grabbed Jian Ning and said, "This time Yin Jian came back from Kyoto, it seems that he is even more powerful than before, and now even the county officials respect him very much, and that master runs to Baiwei Building from time to time, thinking about the law to please him." ”
Hearing this, Jian Ning immediately looked at Long Zeye and asked, "Who is the person behind Yin Jian, do you know?" ”
Before she came, she asked Long Zeye to help investigate, but after that, she didn't hear Long Zeye talk about it again, didn't she find it?
Long Zeye only remembered it when he saw Jian Ning at this moment, and he was unhappy, and said with a cold face: "Is this your attitude of asking for help?" ”
"Your Majesty, Ning Er didn't mean to offend you, but she was a little anxious, please don't blame her." Liu Leshan was busy talking for Jian Ning on the side.
"I will help Ning'er deal with this matter. Now if you're all right, you can go out. Long Zeye really didn't want to see Liu Leshan and Jian Ning stay together, because in this way, his sense of existence would be even weaker, so he directly spoke out to drive people away.
"Hey, why are you like this, he is my senior brother, and in my heart he is like my own eldest brother, what kind of attitude do you have? Is the emperor great? Jian Ning especially didn't like Long Zeye's weird appearance of yin and yang, and said with a cold face.
"Good, good. I think I'm crazy to waste my time here. After speaking, Long Zeye didn't even glance at Jian Ning, and directly opened the door and went out.
Liu Leshan knew that the emperor was really angry this time, and after chasing two steps, he felt that it was inappropriate, so he hurriedly turned back to Jian Ning and said, "Ning'er, you shouldn't talk to the emperor like this." The fact that he can leave state affairs behind and come back with you is enough to show that he values you. You better go and explain to the emperor quickly, lest the misunderstanding get bigger and bigger. ”
Liu Leshan is a very practical person, he opposed Jian Ning entering the palace as a concubine at the beginning, a lot of it has to do with the fact that the master has a last word, and entering the palace may not make Ning Er happy.
But now that he sees that the emperor cares about Ning'er, he thinks that maybe this may be a good choice. And Ning'er is now the concubine of Yi, who has announced to the world, no matter what, there is no way to change it. I only hope that Master's spirit in the sky can bless Ning'er with happiness.
In fact, Jian Ning's heart didn't feel anything about Long Zeye, and seeing Long Zeye leave like this, Jian Ning was also a little uneasy in her heart. As soon as he heard Liu Leshan say this, he hurriedly chased out.
Looking at the unconsciously revealing trace of worry in Jian Ning's eyes, Liu Leshan understood that Ning Er was not completely ruthless to the emperor, but Ning Er had never understood her heart!
In the end, Jian Ning caught up with Long Zeye on the way back to her yard, panting, hanging a smile, and said, "I thought you were leaving?" ”
