There is Yasukuni in the south and Baimeng in the west.

Compared with these two countries, although Da'an is only a small country and is not as strong as the two countries, the terrain extends in all directions, and it has to pass through Da'an no matter whether it goes south or north. Da'an is close to the north and south mountains and rivers, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and rich in products, which should not be underestimated. Such a dynasty with an excellent terrain has been coveted by both Yasukuni and Baimeng for a long time, but at the same time, they contain each other and will never allow the other to annex Da'an.

Under such circumstances, the meticulous work of each country is indispensable. This is also why Yang Zhen helped her find out the news about blood jade more than ten years ago so smoothly. But whether in his previous life or in this life, Ji Erlan has never thought about this. Hong Yan, what is the ulterior secret? And who is the Ranger who raised him?

Although she felt that it was impossible in her heart, the vague guess still made her heart tremble.

Seeing Song Yuning leaving, a few girls who were guarding outside turned around and returned to the room, and saw Ji Erlan standing in the middle of the room in a daze, all looking at each other and not knowing what was going on. Twilight was the most anxious, and asked first, "Girl, what's wrong?" ”

Ji Erlan sat down silently, did not make a sound, and gradually turned his thoughts back to what Song Yuning said.

Who is Hong Yan for the time being, how true is what Song Yuning said about the third master of the Song family? Mrs. Song has such a strong temperament, Song Zhan actually made a silent production proposition into the door next to her...... Not to mention that he is the heir of the Song family, even if he is the son of an ordinary family, he will not easily choose to be a son-in-law in someone else's house.

But the matter of blood jade, Song Yu Ning was conclusive, and Ji Erlan felt that it was impossible for the other party to deceive her with such a verifiable thing. However, since Song Yuning dared to release the news to her, Mrs. Song must have known that she might be Song Zhan's daughter, but the other party did not come to her to inquire.

This shows that Old Madam Song didn't want to at all, or didn't think about whether to recognize her.

In this case, there is no need for Ji Erlan to make a noise, with Song Zhan's clue, she can borrow it to investigate the affairs of her mother's family. As for what Song Yuning said about returning to Song's house, she was not interested.

……

The excitement of the Song sisters' entry into the palace had just passed, and the spring festival had already boiled in advance. Everywhere there are young talents and students who come from all over the world.

Among the hotly discussed characters in Beijing, Hong Yan, who is covered in a veil everywhere he goes, is naturally indispensable, and Ruan Ning can't help but secretly envy while being jealous. But compared to Hong Yan, he found a full sense of superiority in Qin Cheng. Not only him, but no one in the Ruan family is optimistic about Qin Cheng.

While tidying up Ruan Ning's clothes, Liu complained: "Brother Ning, it's better for you to go less to the Ji family, those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, Qin Cheng is nearly twenty years older than you, but his knowledge is not as good as you, you go to meet with him all day long, what progress can you make?" ”

Ruan Ning had heard these words of ridicule at Qin Cheng a long time ago, and even Qin Cheng himself had not heard less.

Ruan Ning's expression paused, and his eyes showed dissatisfaction. How could he ever want to go to Qin Cheng, it wasn't because Hong Yan followed Qin Cheng every day. One of the reasons why he goes to Ji's house every day is that he looks forward to seeing Ji Erlan. Another reason is to keep an eye on Hong Yan! The articles and homework he practiced every day were almost the same as Hong Yan's, and he didn't believe that he would fall behind Hong Yan in the Spring Festival!

But whatever the reason, he didn't have the face to say it.

Seeing that his son's face was not good-looking, Liu had a guess or two in his heart. After all, it was the meat in her belly, how could she not understand her son's mind at all, so she said: "Is Brother Ning unwilling to Ji Erlan's girl?" ”

Ruan Ning didn't speak, but his brows furrowed. Liu knew that he guessed eight or nine and ten, and complained: "At the beginning, I couldn't look down on any of the two girls in the Ji family, but after all, our two families have a marriage contract, and your father has taken a fancy to Ji Chenglin's future, and he wants to marry them anyway." Originally, it was a good thing to marry the daughter of an official eunuch, but Ji Erlan's thin and sallow appearance is not to blame for not liking it. But who knows...... The Ji family is suddenly very different from before! ”

Who would have thought that Ji Tianjiao's good days would come to an end, Ji Erlan has changed so much after gaining power, and people have grown! She met her once a few days ago, and she looked like a fairy daughter from a distance! Looking closer, the eyebrows and eyes are still the same, but the longer they are, the more delicate they become, and the face has long since faded to the unhealthy sallowness, and the tender ones can pinch out the water.

Liu's heart is not unregretful, and Brother Ning is so good in the exam. If you knew it earlier, it would be better to simply withdraw from the family affair, or press it still.

Ruan Ning's eyes flashed, and he said, "Mother, this family matter really hasn't changed?" ”

Liu frowned and said, "Brother Ning still wants to change back?" Once it's excusable, and again it's more than just a shame. ”

"If it doesn't work, then return the family!" Ruan Ning gritted his teeth and finally said what was in his heart.

Liu shook his hand, looked at his son's gaze, and said, "Do you think my mother hasn't thought about it?" But for no reason, how to return? If you quit your family, then Ji Tianjiao will hurt her reputation, and it will be a problem to marry someone in the future. How do you think she agreed, if she cried, made trouble, and hanged us again, your father would have to turn around and go to Huiyang City! How can there be a face in the capital? We have no foundation in the capital, and we still rely on the Ji family......"

Ruan Ning's face gradually sank. "It can't be for nothing, but what if there is?

Liu is not a very kind person, and when he heard what his son meant, he hurriedly asked, "What is Brother Ning's plan in his heart?" ”

Ruan Ning didn't plan to talk to her mother more, so she went out to Ji Mansion after a few words.

In front of the Ji Mansion, a young man in a green shirt had just gotten off the carriage, and there was no decoration on his body, which was very simple. The demeanor and temperament are like clear springs and flowing stones, and they are indescribably comfortable and natural. He heard a voice behind him and couldn't help but look back. Seeing that it was Ruan Ning, he hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "Brother Ruan has arrived." ”

Ruan Ning retracted the turbid breath in his heart and said with a smile: "Brother Hong came early. ”

Hong Yan pointed to the things that the little guy next to him was holding in his hand and said, "I often come to Ji Mansion these days to bother, so I prepared some things early to express my gratitude." Brother Ruan has to go to Aunt Qin's place every day to ask for peace, can you lead Hong to go with him today? ”

Ruan Ning was stunned for a moment and said, "Brother Hong isn't going to come tomorrow?" ”

Hong Yan said with a smile: "There are only a few days left to catch the exam, and Hong doesn't plan to go out in the next few days." ”

Ruan Ning was a little disappointed in his heart, and he also wanted to see how Hong Yan prepared before the exam. "In that case, let's go to my aunt and say goodbye first."

Before, Ji Erlan had to go to the main courtyard every morning to accompany the Qin family for breakfast, so Ruan Ning always came early to greet the Qin family, and then went to Qin Cheng in the front yard. But recently, Ji Erlan only occasionally appeared in the Qin family's courtyard, and Ruan Ning had even fewer chances to meet him. I don't know if it's because Ji Erlan deliberately avoided him......

Ruan Ning was a little irritable in her heart, and took Hong Yan to stand outside the courtyard and wait for the girl to go in. After a while, Pinblue came out and beckoned them in, saying, "The eldest girl and the second girl are also in the wife's house." ”

Ruan Ning suddenly had a look of joy in his eyes when he heard this, and then remembered that Hong Yan was still on the side, so he quickly suppressed his expression and made a gesture of invitation to Hong Yan. Of course, Hong Yan didn't ignore Ruan Ning's performance, but he didn't see anything, and followed Ruan Ning into the courtyard.

In the small hall, the Qin clan learned that Hong Yan, who often met with his brother, had come to visit, so he sat with the Ji Erlan sisters and waited for them to come in.

Hong Yan's dark hair was still covered with droplets of water that had melted into the snow, and although his eyes were drooping, Ji Erlan seemed to see the depth and composure of the night inside. As soon as he entered the door, the Qin clan secretly exclaimed, there was such a good-looking young man in the world. Ji Tianjiao also suppressed the excitement in his heart and tentatively looked at Hong Yan.

After a few people exchanged pleasantries, Ji Erlan lost interest in staying here. Hong Yan and Tang Nian behind her did not have the slightest communication from beginning to end. These two people's minds are too heavy! It's not going to be as flawed as it was that day...... So, Ji Erlan withdrew, despite Ruan Ning's eager gaze. After leaving the main courtyard, she sent Dui Ye and Tang Nian back to Kongshan Xiaozhu, and she took Dui Chun and Yue Xi out of the house to find Yang Zheng.

Twilight Chun thought carefully, followed Ji Erlan's left, and whispered, "It's really weird. The eldest girl and the young master obviously have a marriage contract, but one stares at the girl and the other at Hong Gongzi, as if they don't know each other...... If this continues, will this family affair change? ”

Ji Erlan looked at Ji Tianjiao and Ruan Ning at this time, just like watching two jokes. However, when she heard Twilight Chun say this, she still raised her eyebrows and couldn't help but smile: "You girl has the most careful thoughts." However, whether the family succeeds or not, it has nothing to do with us. ”

"That being said, if both of them are bent on dismissing their relatives, I'm afraid there will be something wrong. What if it's not good for the girl, the girl still has to be on guard. "Even if Ji Tianjiao doesn't want to marry Ruan Ning, but her fiancΓ© stares at her sister all day long, I'm afraid that no woman can stand it. Even if you don't hate, your heart will be unhappy. What's more, Ji Tianjiao is jealous and hateful of Ji Erlan at all!

And Ruan Ning may not have the intention of enjoying the blessings of all people, if he does something, he will be disgusted if he is not hit.

"You have a point. The pair of Ruan Ning and Ji Tianjiao is not a good thing in the end. Guard our yard, if there is any wind and grass, don't startle the snake. For Ruan Ning, Ji Erlan didn't want him to feel better, he disliked her at the beginning, changed his family affairs to Ji Tianjiao, and dared to entangle her endlessly when he turned around, I really don't know how death was written.

If he dared to stretch out his claws, Ji Erlan didn't mind letting him lose them.

She thought for a moment and snorted coldly: "Ruan Ning, this straw bag, thinks that she can shine in the Spring Festival, it's just a dream. When he is disappointed, let's give him something awesome, so that he can taste what makes it worse! ”
