Qi Niang left from Tianxianglou and went directly back to her mansion, which was a secret residence for her in the capital, except for her and a very small number of cronies, no one else knew that she had such a secret mansion, even if it was the prince's person, she didn't know.

The cunning rabbit three holes, Qi Niang is very afraid that after she is used, she will be killed, even if she takes refuge in the prince, she is still acting in secret.

"Qi Niang, I just got the news that the flood in Huguang was a generation, and the imperial court concealed it from the outside world, which caused the local disaster to be serious, and the flood was followed by a drought, and the people were displaced......"

Qi Niang had just come back, and she learned of a very bad situation, which made her very worried.

After listening to the detailed recital, Qi Niang also changed her nightgown, and the whole person looked very lazy, even if she was a female subordinate who reported the matter, she would feel that she was very feminine, but Qi Niang was over forty years old, and she could maintain such a good posture, which was still very envious in the eyes of some ordinary women.

In this era, women basically begin to grow old after the age of twenty-five, and after the age of forty, most women are already old and have lost their feminine charm.

But Qi Niang knows how to maintain it very well, which is also the secret she does not pass on to the outside world.

"Allocate some money and food to the past, transfer it from the account, and then send some bedding and materials through some secret channels, we must not let the people suffer too much!" Qi Niang is very concerned about the drought after the flood in the south, and the meaning of the decree is also very resolute.

Even if the people under his hands have ideas in their hearts, they don't dare to question Qi Niang in person, after all, in their opinion, Qi Niang should not use her own money to give to ordinary people.

After the messenger took the order, Qi Niang said with a grim expression: "There have been a lot of disasters in the south this year, if I can't continue to work under the crown prince, I must consider finding another good lord to help the five princes do things, which is not a good thing, but I don't know how to take refuge under Princess Wenren." Now that the situation is chaotic, it's really hard to say who can become the crown prince! ”

"Senior sister also thinks that the current situation has reached the point where you have to find another good master?" As Qi Niang spoke, suddenly a woman's voice came from behind the screen.

From behind the screen, out of the same graceful woman, the woman's words revealed, is a thick charm, like a fox spirit, as if a smile can seduce the soul.

Qi Niang said, "When did you come?" ”

"When did I come, don't you know, senior sister? Haha, what Senior Sister said just now was clearly to me. The woman smiled, "I just came back from Zhu Chuhe, and I learned that Senior Sister you are making enemies of him, and you are going to sue him in front of the prince." Hmph, senior sister, you're playing with fire**! ”

"You just came back from the one surnamed Zhu?" Qi Niang's face was cold, and she glared at the enchanting woman.

"Senior sister, what kind of innocent pretend, I used to think how noble you were, senior sister, but in the end, you didn't become a plaything in the hands of those powerful like me? Before, the senior sister also had a lot of disdain for Zhu Chuhe, but now, isn't she in cahoots with him? Now we are in the same boat, Zhu Chuhe asked me to come over and tell your senior sister that if you want to continue to do things by the prince's side, you must cooperate, instead of fighting separately, otherwise the prince will know that you are two-faced, and the prince will let you go? The voluptuous woman said in a threatening tone.

Qi Niang said coldly: "We came to the capital in the first place, just to be able to seek the well-being of the people of the same clan, and now what you are doing is more and more unreasonable, have you ever thought about what you are doing now, which elder will agree?" ”

"The status is not given by you, senior sister!" The woman said angrily, "Senior sister, don't speak in this kind of instructive tone, senior sister herself can also face Qin Duchu for the sake of power, why should she blame me?" I also told my senior sister, what I do, I don't need to interfere with you, as long as I can help the clansmen get their due status and power, that is my ability, senior sister still think about how to deal with those powerful people in the future, whether to use her own body or money! ”

After speaking, the enchanting woman strode towards the door, Qi Niang wanted to go up and restrain her, but in the end she gritted her teeth and endured it.

……

……

Because he thought about Shangguan Wan'er, Ji Ning didn't sleep well all night.

When he woke up the next day, Yu Ling leaned over and pestered him, this little Yu Ling was like an octopus, grabbing Ji Ning and not wanting to let go.

"Yuling, get up!" Ji Ning said.

On weekdays, Yu Ling got up earlier than him, but now because Yu Ling is sick, Ji Ning himself goes to bed late and gets up early, Yu Ling just turns over and continues to sleep.

Ji Ning was helpless, got up and dressed by himself, and was about to go to the ground, but saw Lin Juan'er coming in with a hot water basin and said, "Master, it's time for you to wash!" ”

Because he didn't think about the situation of having an extra personal maid by his side, Ji Ning didn't even react, and finally Ji Ning waved his hand and said, "Okay, you put it down, I'll wash it myself!" ”

Lin Juan'er put down the basin at this time, but Xiao Nizi's face was flushed, it was obvious that she had received some indoctrination from her brother and sister-in-law, thinking that she might be given to Ji Ning as a concubine, so she didn't have much resistance to Ji Ning from the beginning.

Ji Ning washed his face and ate breakfast, and Yu Ling got up with a tired face.

"Yuling, go to the yard more during the day, don't be stuffy in the house, it's not good for your health!" Ji Ning said, "I'm going out in the morning, and I won't be back at noon!" ”

"Ah, young master, where are you going?" Yu Ling said a little aggrieved.

In fact, Yu Ling asked in vain, she also knew in her heart that Ji Ning was going to see Liu Ruyi, yesterday Ji Ning suddenly took out 20,000 taels of silver to bid for Liu Ruyi's Oiran, Ji Ning also said that he would "inspect the goods" the next day, and now Ji Ning will not stay at home safely, leaving the beauty alone to keep the empty curtain.

Ji Ning didn't explain much, and said, "Stay at home with peace of mind, don't think about it!" ”

As soon as he got out of the house, before he got to the door, he heard that a carriage had arrived outside the courtyard gate, Lin Yi was also very diligent in doing things, which supplemented the disadvantages of the lack of manpower around Ji Ning, even if Ji Ning was at home, he would catch the car and wait at the mouth of the alley, on call.

"Master Ji!" Lin Yi smiled and came up to salute.

"Well, Lin Er, hurry to Tianxianglou, there's something going on today!" Ji Ning said.

"Yes, yes, Master Ji, please get in the car!" Lin Yi hurriedly moved the stool out, helped Ji Ning get into the carriage, and then jumped into the carriage, and the carriage went in the direction of Tianxianglou.

This will be in Tianxiang Building, Liu Ru is also dressed up, this day is a big day for her, she is also ready, even if she can't live with Ji Ning, she will cherish these three days, and regard this as the most beautiful memory in her life.
