The matter in Jiangnan has come to an end in Ji Ning's opinion.

He felt that he really didn't need to stay in Jiangnan anymore, and neither Zhang Hua nor Chongwang had any reason for him to continue to help.

After he passed the test for the title of scholar of the Temple of Literature, he had to leave for the capital, because there would be a bigger test in the capital that would determine whether he was eligible to go directly to the top of the Temple of Literature.

Ji Ning was in Jiangnan, and it took the shortest time to arrange, settle down the things before he left, and he was going to send Zhao Yuanxuan to Chongwang's Mansion after he left, as for Zhang Hua, he needed to take it to the capital, just like some promises he made with Zhang Hua at the beginning, he was ready to use Zhang Hua to do something, and Zhang Hua would also become a chess piece in his hand.

The day before leaving, Ji Ning put on makeup again and met with Shangguan Wan'er and Zhang Hua, and the meeting place was in the post house.

After Zhang Hua saw Ji Ning, he looked very surprised, and he asked urgently: "I wonder if the old gentleman is satisfied with the gift he gave him before?" ”

Zhang Hua was very afraid that Ji Ning would be dissatisfied with him, and he was also afraid that Ji Ning would leave directly after using him, after Ji Ning returned to the post station with Zhao Yuanxuan, under the watchful eye of his people, Ji Ning, Shangguan Wan'er and Zhao Yuanxuan all disappeared, and they didn't show up for two days, which made Zhang Hua very nervous.

After Ji Ning reappeared, Zhang Hua's hanging heart could be regarded as relieved.

"Zhang Hua, you should know what the old man needs, you confront Chongwangfu, in the old man's opinion, it is completely unnecessary, the gift you sent, the old man feels very satisfied, this gift will not be returned by the old man, the old man has other uses, you won't feel distressed, right?" Ji Ning asked.

Zhang Hua said with a smile: "What is the old gentleman talking about, since he has given all the gifts to the old gentleman, naturally he will not ask for it back, and the old gentleman can dispose of it as much as he wants!" ”

"The old man won't hide it from you, this Huaizhu County Lord, the old man is going to give it to King Chong as a gift for his appointment as King Chong!" Ji Ning said.

Zhang Hua was still surprised, and he said: "Old man, after so much hard work, you can get people, you don't like it, and now you still want to send people back to Chongwangfu?" ”

Ji Ning said coldly: "It seems that you still have a big opinion?" ”

Of course, Zhang Hua has opinions, he feels that he is wholeheartedly helping this old gentleman do things, and this old gentleman does not appreciate it at all, which makes him very annoyed. When Zhang Hua was silent, Ji Ning said coldly: "Zhang Hua, don't you still understand?" What the old man has to do now is to unite all the forces that can be united, so that the power of the new emperor is hollowed out, after you return to the capital, the first to take office is the Ministry of Rites, the old man has sent a letter to the new emperor, she will inevitably agree, and then you will get more power, the old man will make you a powerful person above ten thousand people under one person, why are you not satisfied? ”

"The old gentleman's words are naturally beyond doubt, but has the old gentleman ever thought about what he needs next?" Zhang Hua asked rhetorically.

Ji Ning said: "I want to hear it, do you want to be the emperor or the prime minister?" ”

"Neither!" Zhang Hua said directly, "I want to be a person who can control everything, the old gentleman gave me such an opportunity, I am not afraid that I will fight against you in the end and kill you?" ”

"You can try it!" Ji Ning said.

Zhang Hua sneered: "I believe that the old gentleman will also be on guard against the next, but it doesn't matter, I can help the old man do a lot of things, and the old man can bring the power that the old man needs in the next, this is enough, come, let the old man respect a few cups, after going back, he will prepare to leave for the north, as for the two million taels of silver that the old man needed before, they have been stored in the next, as long as the old man wants to call, it can be done at any time!" ”

……

……

In the small building that Ji Ning arranged for Qin Yuanyuan before Jinling City, Qin Yuanyuan hadn't come back for two days.

But Ji Ning didn't know Qin Yuanyuan's recent situation, just as Ji Ning didn't know Qin Yuanyuan's true identity before.

Qin Yuanyuan didn't go far away from the small building, but only lived in a few residences on the edge of the Qinhuai River, the three caves of the cunning rabbit, and she didn't want to be tracked down by others.

Among the people Qin Yuanyuan has seen in the past few days, the most important person is a martial arts person who accompanied her to Jiangnan before, and this person is the woman in white that Ji Ning has seen twice before.

"Princess, I have received detailed information, saying that Zhu Chuhe suppressed all the forces of the Restoration Army in the capital, and he himself has now gained control of the Restoration Army, this person wants to get you, Princess, so that he can control the Restoration Army in the name of righteousness, and even after achieving great things, he will be the emperor!" In the evening before Ji Ning left, the woman in white came to Qin Yuanyuan and said.

Qin Yuanyuan looked very angry, and the jade hairpin he was holding in his hand could also be broken directly.

"This Zhu Chuhe, when he was still under his hands, he was welcomed into the camp of the Restoration Army, I thought that he could do his best, then I could still use the power of his old princelings...... Who knew he would have such ambitions! Alas! In fact, this just proves that the restoration army is just a rabble, and the previous dynasty has been destroyed for so long, how easy is it to restore the country again? ”

When Qin Yuanyuan spoke, the whole person had lost his spirit, as if he had accepted his fate.

"Did the princess send someone to assassinate Zhu Chuhe? The Restoration Army is now under the control of Zhu Chuhe, and it will not be easy for the princess to regain control...... And the identity of the princess is also very easy to leak, and the people around the princess now are also very dangerous......"

The woman in white talked about a lot of dangers and crises in a row, which made Qin Yuanyuan somewhat dissatisfied.

Qin Yuanyuan said: "What do you want to say?" Do you think it's Ji Ning who is disadvantageous to me? Then your worries are superfluous, the reason why I am committed to Ji Ning is because I know that this is the man I need, he can help me, and can support me, and the female emperor of the Yong Dynasty also understands the key, so she can give herself up in order to achieve today's imperial industry, why can't I? Even when I feel the need, even you will be given to him by me...... If you are not satisfied, you can leave me at any time, and I will never object! ”

The woman in white looked regretful, but she didn't comment more on the matter.

Qin Yuanyuan also realized that what she said was a little inappropriate, she said: "Okay, you have to believe that I will never hurt you, as long as you return to the capital, I will let the thief of Zhu Chuhe be divided by five horses!" ”
