184 justified
Yun Niang and Fang Ling ran back to the backyard in fear, and went into Yun Niang's room together, closed the door, leaned against the door, and their chests rose and fell violently.
Yun Niang's face turned pale with fright, and she looked at Fang Ling with trembling lips in horror, "I, I understand, I understand what he meant when he said that he wanted me to be the emperor's woman."
Fang Ling is better, but this time is different, this is from Wang Lanping's mouth himself, and even the time is said, after the autumn of next year, it will be the time for him to change the dynasty, this is not known to Fang Ling, whether to follow him to destroy or to ascend to heaven alone.
Fang Ling has experienced war and chaos again and again in the past few years, this king and that hegemony, every time he killed the corpses, in the end, no one ended well, just in her hometown of Henan, when Li Zicheng did not get up, there were five people who claimed to be the emperor, rushed to the state and hit the government, burned and looted, and did all kinds of evil, but the result was either died in the strangulation of the official army or died under the knife of other chaotic soldiers, anyway, none of them had a good end.
Later, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng came, and now, except for Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan, any hero who vainly tries to change the dynasty will not die well.
Fang Ling pulled Yun Niang's hand tightly, clenched it tightly, bit her lip, and tried her best to restrain the madness in her heart, "Remember, no one can say this, you haven't heard anything, otherwise you will all die"
Yun Niang was born at the bottom of the market, in her understanding, the emperor is the god of heaven, and even the county magistrate is a figure she can not reach, but she didn't expect that now she is so close to the emperor, and her favorite man has stood at the entrance of the palace. As soon as he lifts his feet, he can reign over the world.
Yun Niang was trembling all over, she didn't know what she was afraid of, but she was afraid. The ignorant fear of the future quickly spread through her body, and she gritted her teeth and buried her head in her knees.
Fang Ling hugged her tightly, "Sister Yun, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, you have to think in a good direction." You are the woman he loves the most, and you will become the most noble woman in the world because of him, and now all you have to do is pretend that nothing happens. Everything is still the same as before, waiting, waiting for everything he is going to bring you."
Maybe what is waiting for is a collection of thousands of favors, but it may also be a catastrophe. The price of success is always accompanied by destruction.
Yun Niang said in a trembling voice. "You, are you, do you already know"
"This kind of rumor has been spreading on the street for a long time, but you didn't pay attention, Sister Yun, you look at me, listen to me, don't be afraid. You just need to know, no matter what your Lan Ping brother is going to do. He will take care of you, even if, no, he will definitely achieve what he wants, definitely, you have to believe in him, support him, we can't change anything as women, no matter what awaits us, we have to accept it"
Yun Niang straightened up and hugged Fang Ling tightly, "You, I don't understand what you said, I'm just scared"
Fang Ling got up and patted her back, comforting her and comforting herself, but her face on Yun Niang's shoulder showed a smile that could not be concealed, "Don't be afraid, we will all calm down and wait, your Brother Lanping is a mountain, he will shelter you from all the wind and rain, he is a bridge, supporting you to wade across the river, he is a cloud, bringing you colorful splendor"
In Fang Ling's world, the emperor means boundless power, endless wealth and the mountains of corpses and blood behind them.
At this time, a woman's voice came from outside the house, startling the two people who were hugging each other tightly, and the voice was Du Ningning's maid Ah Xiang.
"Miss Yun, Xiangye called you over, is Miss Fang inside, Xiangye also called you over"
The two glanced at each other, Fang Ling wiped Yun Niang's face with sweat or tears, and smiled, "Cheer up, you just need to remember one thing, he won't harm you, you know?" ”
Yun Niang nodded as if she didn't understand.
Ah Xiang led the two to Wang Lanping's residence in the middle courtyard, and the downstairs method and several guards stood solemnly.
Fang Ling glanced at her brother, meaning to ask, what is Prime Minister Wang looking for them.
The eyes of the method are strange, and even his sister can't understand it, but it must be a big deal.
Entered the house and went up to the third floor, Wang Lanping stood by the window in the house, and Du Ningning was also there.
Seeing them coming, Wang Lanping said quietly, "Ah Xiang, you go out first, close the door, and don't allow anyone to come in."
"Yes", Ah Xiang bowed back, closed the door, and then heard her walking down the stairs.
The three women stood in a row, not saying a word.
"Let's all sit down," Wang Lanping pointed to the chair behind them, "What did you two hear?" ”
Fang Ling glanced at Yun Niang and said busily, "No, we didn't hear anything."
Wang Lanping looked at Yun Niang, Yun Niang's face had not completely returned to normal, her eyes flickered, she didn't dare to face it, today's Lan Ping brother seemed to be very far away from her.
"I know you've heard it, I want you to remember, I'm not a bad person, many things are not what you think, I'm in this position, too much is involuntarily, in the eyes of many people I'm an ambitious rebel, I don't care, I hold the world, step on the country, and conquer the world on a prancing horse, but I want to conquer your hearts more, what do you think of me"
Fang Ling forcibly suppressed the joy and frenzy in his heart, and fell to his knees, "Fang Ling didn't think about it so much, he just wanted to serve you wholeheartedly by the prime minister's side."
Often a person doesn't want anything on his lips, but he is impatient to have everything in his heart, Fang Ling is a knowledgeable and scheming girl.
Yun Niang and Du Ningning looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Wang Lanping said again, "Fang Ling, you remember, it should be yours who can't run, if it's not yours, you'd better not think about it, I know what you're thinking."
Fang Linghua's face was pale, and she hurriedly bowed down and bowed, "Fang Ling doesn't dare to have extravagant hopes, Fang Ling has only served the prime minister in this life, serving Sister Yun and Sister Ning Ning, and he will be satisfied if he can have a stable life."
Wang Lanping smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to help her up, "Don't be afraid, I believe in you, you have the ability, from today onwards, you are in charge of this house, the girl of the Zheng family will enter the door in a few days, she is new to the house, you have to help her take care of this family." I haven't given you any name all along, and from today onwards, you will be the second lady of the Duke's mansion. Take charge of everything in the house and join my royal family's sect, are you willing? ”
"Fang Ling is willing to do everything for the prime minister"
Fang Ling was flattered, and looked at Yun Niang and Du Ningning, don't look at the identity of the second lady is a concubine, but she has the power to control the power in the house, it is not just a concubine.
Du Ningning was also surprised. After saying that, we have to look at her face and do things, and we have to find her even to spend some money.
Fang Ling was overjoyed, and he didn't care about anyone else in the house. plunged into Wang Lanping's arms, whimpering, sobbing, venting the bitterness of this long time. From today onwards, she is no longer the girl who was bought with an unjustified name in the eyes of her subordinates. She is the second wife of Dingguo Gong.
Seeing Fang Ling pounced in Wang Lanping's arms, Du Ningning twisted his eyebrows, pouted, and waved the small fist in his hand at Wang Lanping.
Wang Lanping gently helped Fang Ling away, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and whispered in her ear, "Are your injuries all healed?" ”
Fang Ling's cheeks flushed when he heard this, and he lowered his head and was tender like water. "The prime minister said that it would be good"
From that day, Ma Shiying sent killers to assassinate Wang Lanping, but Fang Ling went through a catastrophe. It's been five months, and the injury has already healed, maybe there is really a providence in the dark, and there will be great blessings after the catastrophe.
Wang Lanping glanced at Yun Niang and continued to whisper in Fang Ling's ear, "Today is our big day, waiting for me at night."
Fang Ling, who was both ice and fire, nodded shyly.
"You go down first, tell your brother, and ask him to inform the generals of each battalion to come to my house in the evening and eat the wedding wine of the two of us."
Fang Ling was satisfied, and when she left, she still smiled politely at Yun Niang and Du Ningning.
As soon as Fang Ling left, Du Ningning impatiently picked up Yun Niang and ran to Wang Lanping's side, "What do you mean by doing this?" What is she in charge of? ”
Wang Lanping smiled all over his face, looked at Yun Niang and said, "Do you care about this?" ”
Yun Niang blinked her big eyes and was stunned, shook her head, nodded again after a while, and said aggrieved after a long time, "I, I don't know"
Du Ningning poked her forehead with his finger, "You stupid, you have to listen to that Fang Ling in this mansion from today on."
Yun Niang was still scared in her heart, she didn't think about it at all, and said, "Yes, it's enough for Brother Lanping to be good to me."
Hum! Du Ningning really lost his temper.
Wang Lanping laughed, opened his arms and hugged left and right, Du Ningning was still struggling, but soon quieted down.
"Don't think about it, Fang Ling is not a woman who will embarrass people, taking care of this family is for her to make the best of her talents, in this mansion, there are more than 200 people up and down, how can you do it without a person in charge, which of the two of you has this ability?"
In addition to Wang Lanping and the three heroines in the Dingguo Mansion, there is also a cadre of Ding maids, and a hundred elite warriors (composed of the only remaining people from the old team brought from Huaining City), it is really laborious to take care of, Wang Lanping is busy with military and politics and rarely returns to the house, it is time to choose someone to take charge at this time, as for why it was chosen before his wedding, maybe only Wang Lanping himself knows.
Du Ningning and Yun Niang both asked themselves if they had this ability, but as for this position, Du Ningning did not argue, the prime minister's concubine had no glory, Wang Lanping said that only the imperial concubine was the real name.
**
Fang Ling walked out of the building easily, and as soon as he walked to the door, he saw his brother smiling, holding a knife and arching his fist, "Congratulations to my sister, you can see the moon when you keep the clouds, you finally got your wish."
Fang Ling couldn't reach out and pinch his hand, "Whether you are my brother or not, you already know it, why didn't you tell me just now, it's so scared of me"
Method hehe smiled, "I said that the prime minister personally told you to make you happy, from today onwards, I will be a brother to you to salute, you said, I am also a dignified martial arts exam, and the grade is also four grades"
"Well, the fourth-grade guard with a sword, it's a guard, and also, your identity as a martial artist was brought to you by Xiangye" Fang Ling immediately added, this is not an official position, just a high-ranking servant.
The method frowned again and again, but soon smiled again, helped his sister to the front yard, and said as he walked, "Good sister, you see that you are famous and shared, brother, do you have to do it, hehe"
Fang Ling glanced at him, "What do you want to do?" ”
The method ran in front of her and stopped her, "Sister, although you are not the main room, but the prime minister has handed over all the power in the house to you, it can be seen that the prime minister has a deep affection for you, or you can talk to the prime minister, let my brother go to the army to experience and experience earlier, and he will be able to win a military position in the future, and the glory of the ancestors is not."
Fang Ling said disdainfully, "You don't think about this, a few people can be returned to the ancient battle, you, it's better to stay by Xiangye's side in peace, Guangzong Yaozu, you have to save your life first, the Fang family is your only seedling, besides, I just have a name and go to Xiangye to say this, do you think it's appropriate?" ”
The method is correct, "How is it not appropriate, Yu Gong I was born in Wujinshi, and those who were on the list with me all served in the army one by one in the same year, and it is justified to transfer me to serve in the army, Yu private, hehe, I am still the prime minister's eldest brother, and I am not an outsider inside and outside"
Fang Ling giggled, "You really don't want to be an outsider"
The method is righteous and strict, "I'm not an outsider, hehe, sister, find a chance to help my brother"
Fang Ling thought about it, no matter what his brother said, he was also the only son of the Fang family, so he should have a chance to be out of the ranks, and he couldn't be a guard behind the prime minister for the rest of his life.
"Sister Rong, think about it, don't worry"
The two of them had already come to the front yard at this time, and the family members, servants and guards of the whole mansion who had been notified had already been notified were all standing in the courtyard early, and as soon as they saw Fang Ling coming out, they all immediately knelt down in unison and said in unison.
"I've Seen Madame"
Fang Ling has also seen the world, but she never thought that she could have such a respectable scene, all the people here respect not her, but the man she relied on.
"Everybody's free of charge"
The housekeeper Zhou Hai was a half-hundred-year-old man, he respectfully walked to Fang Ling's side, untied a bunch of keys from his waist, and handed them over.
"Madam, the lord confessed, from today onwards, everything in this house will be taken care of by Madame, this is the key to the tent"
At the same time, Steward Zhou beckoned the subordinate holding the book behind him to walk over, pointed to the book in his hand and said to Fang Ling, "Madam, the daily expenses in the house are all here, and all the deeds of the acres are here, please check it."
The four young maids also walked over, squatted down and said in unison, "I've seen Madame, from today onwards, the four of us will be responsible for serving Madame's food and daily life."
Fang Ling stood generously, it seemed that this was the personal maid of the prime minister's reward, she reached out and took the key of Steward Zhou, pointed to the account books and said to the four maids, "Put these in my room, I will look at it later, I just started, I am afraid that I will not be able to do it, and I will need more help from everyone in the future."
"Respect your wife's life!"
"Well, let's all disperse."
Some of the subordinates who had made fun of her before had a flickering look in their eyes and bowed their heads silently, for fear that their lady would see them.
However, Fang Ling is not the kind of person with a small belly, and she doesn't need to clarify anything in front of these people, today's status has shown everything, from today on, she is the actual hostess of the Dingguo Mansion.
Although the Dingguo Mansion is not as luxurious as the palace, it is also a rich family, along with the emperor's house on that day, he also rewarded 4,000 acres of fertile land, as well as three other courtyards, except for Wang Lanping's Yulu, the annual income of these farms is at least about 200,000 taels, and now all this is taken care of by Fang Ling.
