Chapter 1044 - Door-to-door courtship

Zhao Yuanyan returned to the palace, looking very happy, and shouted that she wanted to see her mother.

Zhao Yuanrong's face was a little ugly, because he knew that Zhao Yuanyan's mother had been frightened in the rebellion in the palace before, although she didn't suffer any major problems at the time, but she ended up bedridden, which would make her sister not want to see this picture.

But as a sister, Zhao Yuanrong knew that he couldn't deprive his sister of the right to visit his mother, and finally Zhao Yuanrong nodded and said, "Then I'll take you to see it!" ”

Zhao Yuanyan said curiously: "Sister, didn't you say that when you become an emperor, you have to call yourself me?" Why don't you call yourself that? In the past, my father would always call him that! ”

Zhao Yuanrong didn't know how to explain to her sister, she smiled and said: "Everyone has different ideas, don't have so many questions, I'll take you to see your mother......"

The two sisters went in the direction of the inner courtyard of the deep palace, Zhao Yuanyan was asking Zhao Yuanrong questions all the way, just like a chirping bird, although Zhao Yuanyan seemed very disproportionate, but she couldn't arouse Zhao Yuanrong's disgust at all, because Zhao Yuanrong almost no one talked to her these days, so that she wanted to hear these voices very much now.

……

……

Outside the palace, Ji Ning personally came to the door, and he wanted to ask to see Li Jing.

Because it was the time when the new emperor ascended the throne in the capital, the situation in the entire capital was confusing, so that no one knew how the situation in the capital would develop next.

Li Jing wanted to take refuge in the crown prince before, the prince fell, and then he wanted to take refuge in King Chong, and King Chong also died, at this time Li Jing didn't know whose name to turn to, but fortunately Zhao Yuanrong ascended the throne, and Zhao Yuanrong himself did not have much power, so he would not use the original power to liquidate these old forces.

If the fourth prince or the fifth prince ascends the throne, Li Jing will have to be unlucky, because these two people have always had their own power in the court, and they can use these people to carry out political struggles.

When Li Jing heard that a trainee bachelor from the Temple of Literature came to ask for a meeting, he was originally a little contemptuous, in his opinion, a trainee bachelor simply has no status, and the whole idle scholar, who was admitted to the Jinshi and did not know how to seek progress in the officialdom, really made him feel that there was no need to meet. But he heard that this person was Ji Ning from Jinling City, he vaguely remembered hearing this name before, and Ji Ning was not married at this time, so he realized something, and immediately asked Ji Ning to enter the mansion.

When Ji Ning entered the mansion, he saw Li Jing sitting in the main hall, looking high, Ji Ning didn't even want to have more communication with Li Jing, because in his opinion, a minister like Li Jing was really a villain, and he didn't want to have any communication with this kind of person.

"I've seen Li Shilang!" Ji Ning stepped forward and saluted.

Li Jing nodded slightly, still looking very arrogant and said, "You are Ji Ning?" Sure enough, he is a young man, and he can enter the Temple of Literature at a young age, and his future is limitless...... Your teacher, but Shen Kang, a university scholar? ”

When Ji Ning heard Li Jing come up and asked about Shen Kang, he knew that Li Jing saw that he didn't look up to himself at all, but because of Shen Kang, or that Li Jing was now eager to have something to do with the Temple of Literature to ensure his status in the court.

"Yes!" Ji Ning saluted.

"You may be seated!" Li Jing seemed very happy with Ji Ning's delivery, but this kind of happiness was clearly faked, and Ji Ning didn't believe how much this person would welcome him.

After Ji Ning sat down, Li Jing asked Ji Ning to serve tea, he took a sip himself, and then asked: "Ji Ning, you are still from Jinling, this official used to be the prefect in Jinling, and I have heard of some of your talents, your father is a well-known figure in the Temple of Literature, and your master is a person admired by the whole dynasty, you can be said to be from a wealthy family...... Now in the Temple of Literature, but if there is divine help! ”

Ji Ning listened to the tentative meaning in Li Jing's words very obviously, and said with a slight smile: "It's just a meal in the Temple of Literature!" ”

"Huh? You, a young man, speak so much and interestingly, and when you enter such an institution as the Temple of Literature, what you learn is the way of Confucius and Mencius, in order to reach the point of the unity of heaven and man, do you think this is just a mouthful of food? Haha, where is your master now? Li Jing did not leave Shen Kang in three sentences, because Li Jing knew that Shen Kang's status was respected, and if he could have a closer relationship with Shen Kang, he would be able to obtain the protection of the Temple of Literature.

Ji Ning shook his head and said, "I don't know where Shigong is now, maybe he is traveling through the mountains and rivers...... After all, he no longer holds positions in the imperial court and the Temple of Literature, and now he is already thinking about his old age......"

Li Jing said with some regret on his face: "I still have some regrets when I can't see your master...... What is your intention in coming to this official mansion? But what words do you want to convey on behalf of the Temple of Literature? ”

Ji Ning said: "I am nineteen years old in the next year, and I have no relatives in the capital, but because I admired the demeanor of Miss Li when I was in Jinling City, I ......."

"Shut up!" Li Jing immediately stopped Ji Ning, "Master Ji, don't talk about it, the little girl has already entered the palace gate, and now that she is within the palace walls, what do you want to think about the little girl?" ”

Ji Ning would no longer be polite to Li Jing, he stood up and said, "Why should Li Shilang pretend to be confused? You know best whether your daughter has entered the palace or not...... Now you send people out of the city, do you think you can be unaware? If I tell you about it, do you think you can explain it to the court? ”

"What did you say?" Li Jing seemed to realize that there was something wrong with this matter, but at this time, in a hurry, he couldn't think about Ji Ning's secret dealings with Li Xiu'er at all, he said, "No wonder you came to the door, it turned out that you wanted to blackmail the official, then don't blame the official for being polite!" ”

Ji Ning said: "Before I came down, I just had a kind heart and wanted to marry your Li Mansion, but I didn't expect you to kill me...... That's fine, let's see if the fish dies in the end, or if you can make a profit! Do you think I won't inform others about this in advance so that others can present it to the court? ”

"Who are you scaring about?" Li Jing shouted angrily, "The little girl just entered the palace as a show girl, and now that the emperor has died, no one will pursue this matter anymore, but you, send it to the door to find death, then you can't complain about others!" ”

At this time, Li Jing seemed to be determined to kill Ji Ning, but Ji Ning also seemed very indifferent, but seeing that the servants of the Li Mansion had already entered the door, Ji Ning took out something from his arms, and after Li Jing saw it, his temper immediately withered.

What Ji Ning was holding in his hand was a copy of the Dan book of the Temple of Literature.
