Zhao Yuanrong made a list of people who supported the fifth prince Zhao Yuancheng, and Ji Ning checked it in detail.

After reading it, he found that these people are basically retired or semi-retired officials, and there will be no direct conflict of interest with the imperial court, as for whether these people chose Zhao Yuancheng as their own ideas, or whether the emperor greeted them in advance, Ji Ning didn't know very well, but with Ji Ning's analysis, the emperor was more likely to say hello in advance.

Zhao Yuanrong didn't have any feelings for these ministers, she didn't even propose to ask Ji Ning to help collect these ministers, and Ji Ning naturally didn't have to think about it.

It seems that it no longer makes much sense for those prestigious old ministers in the DPRK and China not to win over some semi-retired officials.

That night, Zhao Yuanrong did not stay overnight in the small residence, and in less than half of the night, Zhao Yuanrong went alone in the direction of the princess's mansion.

The reason why Zhao Yuanrong wants to go back is because she is afraid that she will be noticed that she has not returned at night, and secondly, because she has a younger sister in the house, that is, Zhao Yuanyan, the third princess whom Ji Ning has never met.

Before leaving, Zhao Yuanrong also mentioned his sister: "...... The third sister was born to a concubine in the palace, and she has been neglected in recent years, but she was born within the palace walls, and she is relatively familiar with the things in the palace. ”

Ji Ning doesn't need to envy and envy a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, Zhao Yuanrong is her woman, Zhao Yuanrong has also fulfilled his wife's responsibilities, he will come to accompany him when he has the opportunity, he has nothing to ask for.

After Zhao Yuanrong left, Ji Ning packed up his mood and returned home, he was still thinking about the emperor's establishment of a prince.

As soon as he arrived at the door of his house, he saw a figure standing there, because this person no longer planned to hide his head and tail in front of him, and Ji Ning could also discover the existence of this person for the first time.

"Miss Shangguan, what are you doing?" Ji Ning looked up and saw that it was Shangguan Wan'er, he couldn't get angry if he wanted to, and the relationship between him and Shangguan Wan'er was not ordinary.

"My master is in trouble and wants to ask you for help, are you willing to help?" Shangguan Wan'er asked.

Ji Ning smiled and said: "The affairs of your Holy Gate are all things in the martial arts, and there are many fights and killings, and it is just a cloth cloth below, where can you have the ability to help you?" ”

Shangguan Wan'er said with some eagerness: "The matter in our Holy Gate originally had little to do with you, but after thinking about it, it seems that you are the only person who can help me now, and your ability has reached an unpredictable point, and in this matter, you don't need to use force, are you willing to help?" ”

Ji Ning's face sank and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Shangguan Wan'er sighed lightly: "The family teacher is missing!" ”

"Oh." What Ji Ning said to Shangguan Wan'er, he didn't feel much surprise, in fact, he had also expected that there would be contradictions within the altar, as for how far the contradictions would go, he really couldn't say, Ji Ning said, "What clues do you have?" ”

"Nope!" Shangguan Wan'er shook her head and said.

"Even if you don't have a clue, you should be sure who did it, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have asked me for help. You should know that my goal now is to help the princess complete the great cause, I don't have time to pay attention to the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and the disappearance of the master is basically a dispute within your sect, and I don't want to pay too much attention to it, you can understand what I mean, right? Ji Ning put on a posture of refusing to help.

Shangguan Wan'er looked at Ji Ning, and after a long time, she asked, "Then how can you be willing to help?" Present your terms...... I also know that our Holy Gate is just a gang in the rivers and lakes, and we can't give you the promise of high-ranking officials, but now that the master is missing, the Holy Gate has been scattered, and if we can't find her old man, it is likely that even the Holy Gate will fall apart......"

Ji Ning thought to himself, I still wish that your altar would fall apart, so that you people in the rivers and lakes would no longer have to swagger through the market every day under the banner of acting for the Heavenly Way, and even you would have to interfere with who the crown prince was.

He glanced at Shangguan Wan'er again, in fact, he still had some special feelings for the first woman after he came to this world, although Ji Ning also knew that Shangguan Wan'er might not be able to follow him sincerely, even if the two had an overnight relationship, they were still strangers, which made Ji Ning somewhat helpless.

"It's not a matter of conditions!" Ji Ning said, "I really can't help it!" ”

"You just don't want to help, with your ability, even Princess Wenren, who has no background and status, you can help, and even help the princess get her current status, and even vaguely get the crown prince...... Your ability deserves to be recognized, but there is also one point, I don't want you to be as idle as you are now, what the princess can achieve is the imperial business, and what about yourself? Shangguan Wan'er asked.

Ji Ning smiled: "Then what do you mean?" What can you help me with what the princess can't help me? Want me to be the overlord of martial arts? ”

Shangguan Wan'er said angrily: "What kind of martial arts overlord, it's just a false name, what I want to help you achieve is to make you a person who can command the crowd, at least the Holy Gate and some sects in the rivers and lakes will stand on your side, isn't it good to do this?" ”

"I'm sorry!" Ji Ning said, "Maybe it's a different concept, the idea in Xia is just to be an ordinary bachelor, after all, in the lower body in the Temple of Literature, not in the court, not far away from the temple, as for the command you said, I think that should be what a thief should do, and I won't think about these things in the next place!" ”

"Then what do you want to get to help us with the Holy Gate?" Shangguan Wan'er glared at Ji Ning and asked.

Ji Ning thought about it, he really didn't have anything to think of in the Holy Gate, and he didn't even want the Holy Altar to stand in the position of Princess Wenren, because he felt that the ownership of a Jianghu sect would not affect the ownership of the final imperial power.

"I won't do some things that fall into the ground, and as for the help that Miss Shangguan said, there is really no way to help in Xia!" Ji Ning said coldly, "Please go back?" ”

Shangguan Wan'er didn't give way, nor did she walk away, she kept looking at Ji Ning in the night, with a complicated color in her expression, she seemed to want to see through Ji Ning, but unfortunately Ji Ning had too many profound things on her body, not something she could see clearly casually, after a while, she sighed slightly: "I really can't think of others to help me, I know...... There are some things I did wrong, and after committing myself to you, maybe I should live a life with you......"
