Just when the old emperor was in his own dormitory, completing some things that were tolerated, it was soon sunset.

Princess Wenren Zhao Yuanrong was stopped at the palace gate again, and Zhao Yuanrong asked: "This palace wants to enter the palace to see the driver, why do you want to stop this palace?" ”

The palace guards couldn't deal with Zhao Yuanrong, so they could only turn to the palace eunuch Long Cheng, who had just come from the emperor's bedroom, originally with an annoyed face, but after seeing Zhao Yuanrong, he still had to accompany him with a smiling face, and said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, Your Majesty is now in good health, and you are dealing with court affairs in the Qianqing Palace, and you can't enter the palace without Your Majesty's summons!" ”

"Gonggong Long, you are really bold, you have repeatedly blocked this palace from entering the palace, do you know that this palace has important things to do?" Zhao Yuanrong's tone was aggressive.

Long Cheng thought to himself: "No matter how big your things are, it is more important than Your Majesty enjoying the good things in the world now?" Even if this is a fairy, I'm afraid I won't be able to see Your Majesty in person, I'm still here to talk to you in a good voice, if Your Majesty knows that you are a princess who doesn't know each other, I can't tell how embarrassed I am! ”

Long Cheng said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not. The things in this palace are obvious to all, and now the queen is gone, and you can't see Your Majesty when you enter the palace, why do you still embarrass us? ”

"What do you mean?" Zhao Yuanrong glared at Long Cheng angrily.

Long Cheng said with a smile: "Your Majesty has repeatedly emphasized that no matter the palace dependents, or the daughters of the royal clan, they are not allowed to enter the palace gate without permission. If Her Royal Highness the princess can get married as soon as possible and find a good match as soon as possible, then Your Majesty will be happy, and it is not possible for the princess to enter the palace at any time? ”

Zhao Yuanrong sneered: "Is this palace married, and it is your turn to be a slave to speak?" ”

"Since the princess said that our family is a slave, then the slave naturally has to do what the master ordered!" Long Cheng was no longer polite, and said coldly, "If the princess continues to be aggressive, don't say that our family is a slave, and it will bring trouble to Her Royal Highness the princess, come and take care of the palace gate, if someone forcibly breaks into the palace gate, they will all be stopped, if anyone dares to let anyone enter the palace, the head will move!" ”

"Yes!" The guards at the gate of the palace were all ordered.

Long Cheng said sharply: "Your Royal Highness Princess, now that the old slave has also received the imperial horse supervisor, the palace guards will also give the old slave a little face, if you insist on making trouble for the old slave, the old slave will not give you much face!" ”

After speaking, Long Cheng seemed to be the master of the palace, and he actually turned around and walked away.

Zhao Yuanrong looked at Long Cheng's back, couldn't help frowning, and thought: "They are all the servants that my father is used to, these eunuchs will actually show off their power even more than me, in the end, do the palace guards protect the royal peace, or do they follow the orders of this slave to become his personal arm?" ”

But on the side of the palace guards, Zhao Yuanrong always had no right to transfer, and she could only go away with hatred, and after walking not far away, she suddenly sighed, looked up at the sky and said: "If someone can help this palace now, it will be a good thing, but now even a reckless warlock like Ji Ning is vain to this palace, who else can this palace count on?" ”

……

……

On the night of the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, Ji Ning packed up all the things that should be packed at home, and waited for the next day to celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve.

Ji Ning had a lot of silver on hand, and his life gradually stabilized after arriving in the capital, but he still had the heart to be prepared for danger in times of peace.

That night, Ji Ning wrote a few Spring Festival couplets, and they were ready to hang them up after the New Year, and the picture was beaming.

He didn't give himself a holiday, and after writing the Spring Festival couplets, he would continue to go back to study, and even prepared to write two articles on the big seal.

These days, he sold the small seal sacrifice text he wrote and made a lot of money, but this business is not as easy to do as the big seal article, because the small seal is more hard money, and the big seal is really profitable. He has several articles on the big seal on hand, but he has never found a suitable buyer.

When Ji Ning was writing the Spring Festival couplets, there were two little girls next to him, and they were chattering there when they had nothing to do.

"Young master, this is the field you just bought, it's a lot, it's thirty acres, what are we doing with so much land? This isn't our home after all! Young master, are we going back to Jinling after the year? I'm a little homesick! After Yu Ling recovered from her illness, she became that pestering and clingy little verbose again, and she always came to Ji Ning to talk to her about something, and she talked about inconsequential things in her parents.

Ji Ning said: "If I get the Jinshi next year, I don't have to go back!" ”

"Huh? Don't you go back if you get a jinshi? Didn't you say that if you win the Jinshi, you can also go back to the Confucian Temple in Jinling City to become a bachelor? Belch...... It's better to Jinling City, and the capital is not very lively, and the winter here is too cold! Yu Ling said with some dissatisfaction.

Lin Juan'er stared at her big eyes and asked, "Master, where is Jinling City?" ”

Unlike Yu Ling, Lin Juan'er always calls Ji Ning "master", and Yu Ling always calls Ji Ning "young master", but their respect for Ji Ning in their hearts is the same.

Ji Ning said: "In the south, you are a northerner, it is more appropriate to always live in the north, and I may take you there to see it if I have the opportunity in the future!" ”

Ji Ning wrote the last Spring Festival couplet, put down the pen, and looked up at the two little girls, the two girls are about the same age, but there are certain differences in personality.

Yu Ling is more lively and cheerful, while Lin Juan'er is introverted, Lin Juan'er is the kind of girl who doesn't like to talk at home, she is always very shy in front of Yu Ling, sometimes Yu Ling wants to show a little bit of the eldest lady's temper in front of her, but because Lin Juan'er never fights with her, over time, Yu Ling herself is embarrassed to show her strength again.

It is also Yu Lingxian, Lin Juan'er, who has no intention of competing with her for favor in front of Ji Ning.

But after Lin Juaner joined this small family, Yuling's weekday activities were also much restricted, first she couldn't go to Ji Ning's bed in the middle of the night, and she didn't reflect her "sensible" as a confidant little girl for a long time.

Ji Ning is also very busy these days, and Yu Ling sees it in her eyes, but she can't do anything about it, because she is also afraid of being seen by Lin Juan'er.

"Tomorrow Chinese New Year's Eve." Ji Ning explained, "Everything at home is as usual, what do you like to eat, cook a few dishes by yourself, don't prepare drinks, there will be a ceremony to worship Ji's ancestors at night, you need to prepare in advance, tomorrow I will also study until late at night, these days you are sleepy and go to rest by yourself!" ”

"Oh." Yu Ling and Lin Juan'er both nodded, looking very well-behaved.

But Yu Ling's eyes gurgled, it was obvious that she had bad thoughts in her head, as if she had a plan and was ready to find an opportunity to go to Ji Ning's bedroom to "drill the quilt" again.
