Melon and fruit refreshments are all Jiangnan characteristics. In this northern land, Zhang's mother and Li Niang tried their best to take care of the family's diet, so that Jian Ning could taste the taste of their hometown.

Looking at the delicate Jiangnan dim sum, Hu Yanshu couldn't help but sigh, "This month is like a dream, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know that Uncle Clan and Li Dongyang are old friends, no wonder I said that I wanted to go to Beijing to find you, Uncle Clan not only did not object, but tried his best to be thoughtful." ”

"Hmm, this dim sum is delicious, delicious, I haven't tasted the taste of hometown for a long time."

Zhao Ji ate a piece of sesame candy and said vaguely: "I really can't imagine that a character like Li Dongyang is so approachable, and he has eaten fat at his house this month." ”

"Great Confucianism has its own demeanor."

Jian Ning responded, "What risk will my brother take when he comes this time?" ”

Hu Yanshu shook his head, "Mr. Xiya said that the time is almost up, you see, I brought a salute here, just pretending to have just heard you." ”

Janine nodded. Li Dongyang was an old minister of the four dynasties, and when he was Emperor Jing, he was sent to Shuntianfu by Emperor Jing to study for all beings, and his wit and resourcefulness were extraordinary. If he pushes out Hu Yanshu at this time, it means that he is completely sure that he is not afraid of Liu Jin's eye medicine.

"What instructions does Mr. Siya have?"

Jian Ning waved everyone away, and asked Zhao Ji to follow Zhang's mother to rest first, leaving Li Niang alone in the house to take care of her.

"Mr. Xiya said that when the time is not right, everything must be patient."

"Nothing else?"

"The emperor's favor is the most important."

Hu Yanshu felt bitter in his heart, if the Son of Heaven only likes Jian Ning's books, he is not afraid. If you are afraid, you are afraid, he not only likes books but also people.

During the days of correspondence with Li Dongyang, he already knew some palace secrets. The Son of Heaven and the Queen have never performed a Dunlun ceremony since their wedding, and so have the concubines.

As for the women in the leopard room, they are all perfect. For this reason, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are anxious, afraid that the royal family will have no heirs.

The Son of Heaven was so rebellious for some reason, but the royal family arranged for all the women to disdain it. And those women in the leopard room somehow didn't get into the eyes of this son of heaven. Now that Jian Ning's appearance has made all the ministers and the queen mother see a glimmer of light, they are not moving now, but they are afraid that the stinky problem of the Son of Heaven will come up again, and there will be no second Jian Yunshu at that time.

Hu Yanshu's heart was very uncomfortable, he really couldn't agree with Li Dongyang's thoughts. Do the things of the world have to sacrifice a woman's life in exchange? So what's the use of these men?

And what frightened him even more was that he was afraid that Li Dongyang's guess would be true, and the Son of Heaven would feel novel about Jian Ning, a woman who did not sell his face, so he had a good impression.

The Son of Heaven likes a woman, does that woman have the right to refuse? What's more, they, the son of heaven, even dared to snatch back the leopard room even a woman who had been married, not to mention Jian Ning, an unmarried daughter.

Jian Ning looked at Hu Yanshu, her eyes became gloomy, "Brother Hu, do you also think I should please the Son of Heaven?" ”

"Although the wind and bones are good, they are ...... under this imperial power"

Hu Yanshu couldn't go on, if he might not be able to please the Son of Heaven, because he was a scholar, if the Son of Heaven punished him for this, there would be a scholar to help him speak. But what about Janice? Liu Jin's move has made her a disaster, if she loses the emperor's favor, how should she deal with herself? And who can protect her? Li Dongyang? Looking at his attitude towards Liu Jin, you know that this person will not bother anymore because of a useless chess piece.

The dark side of officialdom was presented in front of Hu Yanshu, and there was a moment when he even wanted to give up the imperial examination and go home to open a bookstore with peace of mind.

"That's right."

Jian Ning smiled, with some bitterness in her mouth, "It is said that blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, although I am a saint, but I also have to bear the consequences of accompanying the king like a tiger, how can there be any perfection in this world?" Now I just want to keep my family safe and return to my hometown as soon as possible. ”

She sighed softly as she spoke, "I'm afraid that if Liu Jin doesn't get rid of it, I won't be able to go back to this hometown for the time being." ”

Seeing this lonely man showing sorrow, Hu Yanshu's heart was filled with bitterness.

She's not a sentimental person, and now you can see how hard it can be to maneuver between a few big people.

"Don't talk about these frustrations."

Jian Ning sighed and then pursed her lips and smiled, "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, please convey it to Mr. Xiya, I just want to go back to my hometown to live some life in Ontario, and I will cooperate." ”

After a pause, he said, "Speaking of which, I have saved a lot of manuscripts, and my brother is here to give them to you." ”

"I also brought money here, and I am going to open a store in the capital, there are many students and famous teachers in the capital, I happen to be here to review and prepare for the exam, and I will return to my hometown next year."

"Such a great good!"

Jian Ning was pleasantly surprised, "I'm still worried about how to hand over the manuscript to you in the future, I'm afraid those readers are going to fall out, right?" ”

"Xiangzi's father is okay, but I know that the Son of Heaven has summoned you to Beijing, and I feel honored and very happy. As for ...... elsewhere"

Hu Yanshu smiled, "But I can't care so much." ”

Jian Ning nodded and said to Li Niang: "Li Niang, take my manuscripts and give them to my brother." ”

"Yes, big girl."

After a while, he took a thick pile of manuscripts, and Hu Yanshu was pleasantly surprised, "There are so many?" ”

"Alas, the Son of Heaven likes it, and he doesn't dare to do it."

"My sister has lost a lot, and I heard that she is still sick for writing books, but she has to take care of her health."

Jian Ning nodded, "Brother should also be careful in the capital, if you come to Liu Jin today, you will definitely be eyeing you, you can be more careful." ”

Hu Yanshu nodded, "With Mr. Xiya here, I don't have to worry about that eunuch disgusting person for a while." ”

"Brother is cautious."

Jian Ning said: "This place is not as good as Xiangzi, so it's better not to let people grasp the handle." ”

Hu Yanshu saw that she cared about herself, and her heart was soft again, and after hesitating for a while, she suddenly said, "Sister...... I don't really think about ......."

"What?"

"Forget it, nothing ......"

He smiled bitterly, she didn't mean that at all, didn't she say this at the moment, didn't she take advantage of others?

"After you left, a lot of books were sold, and by the time I came, there were as many as three thousand taels, and when I gained a firm foothold here, I asked my people to send the books."

Jian Ning waved his hand, "The people of my brother's family can be trusted, even if it is in the accounts." ”

"No, everything is one thing, the capital costs a lot, and it's not easy for my sister to raise this big family. Two days later I wrote a letter explaining the matter. My sister doesn't have to worry about me, I brought a lot of money into Beijing, and there is also my Hu family's property in the capital, which can always be turned. ”

Laughing again as he spoke, "With you, the God of Wealth, I'm not afraid that I won't be able to turn around." ”

A joke swept away the dull atmosphere, and half an hour passed to talk and laugh, and Hu Yanshu should go back.

At this moment, it is not appropriate for him to stay in Jian's house for long, so as not to be caught by Liu Jin.

Jian Ning personally sent him outside the door, while Zhao Ji stayed behind, and he would be regarded as a guard in the future.

Zhengde's eyes were on fire, watching Jian Ning talk and laugh with the man in the dark, and personally went down the steps to send him to the car, only to feel that the fire in his heart had jumped to the hair, and he was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.

He had been here for a while, but the people reported that the two men had been in for a long time and had not come out. At this moment, people came out, but only one person came out, how could she be so casual as a woman? Not to mention welcoming two men into the house, do you still want to leave people behind?!

She's playing me like a monkey?!

Seeing that the carriage and horse were leaving, the man was still standing in place, he couldn't help it, strode forward, and scolded: "Jian Yunshu, what are you doing??! ”

"Your Majesty?!"

Jian Ning was taken aback and hurriedly saluted, "The people's daughter greets Your Majesty." ”

"Greetings?! Ask what's Ann?! Who is that person who just left?! ”

"Your Majesty saw it?"

Jian Ning was stunned, "That's the brother of the people's hometown." ”

"Where did you come from relatives?!"

Zhengde was furious, "I've asked clearly!" Your father traveled to Changzhou, because your mother gave birth to Changzhou, you only have a second brother and a brother, and now where is another brother coming out? ! Also, it was obviously two men who went in just now, why is there only one coming out now?! Okay, you are Jian Yunshu, you are also a celebrity, you are so ignorant of inspection, you are shameless when you interact with men, I still have face! ”

"Did Your Majesty send someone to spy on the people's daughter?"

Jian Ning's face turned cold all of a sudden, "How can the people's daughter not know how to damage His Majesty's face?" Besides, the son who just left is the benefactor of the people's daughter, the people's daughter respects him as a brother, and all the books of the people's daughter are engraved and sold by him, if there is no him, the people's daughter would have starved to death on the street, and the people's daughter recognizes him as a brother, is it also wrong?! ”

Zhengde was stunned, and half of his anger disappeared, "He's the one who helped you print the book?" ”

"Although the folk girl is ordinary, she is still rude."

Her voice was extremely cold, "As for the one who stayed, he also has kindness to the folk girl, and he is the most enthusiastic among the folk girl's book lovers." When he learned that the people's daughter had entered Beijing, he followed, relied on some fists and feet, and was willing to take care of the people's daughter's home and home. With such hospitality, how could the folk girl refuse? If you refuse, won't it chill the hearts of your hometown fathers? ”

After a pause, he said: "He came to see the family nursing home because he was entrusted by his hometown fathers and book lovers, and he was a loyal and righteous person. Although Your Majesty is a king, you can't humiliate your subjects like this! ”

Zhengde opened his mouth wide, when she said this, he became a bastard?

But this pondering, it seems that he is a little at a loss. And...... She seemed to find herself being spied on. Thinking of this, the old man's face turned red, and he put on the face of the king of heaven, raised his chin and said: "Now we all know that you live in the house I ci, you are my person, representing my face, this kind of thing is the most easily misunderstood, why don't you report it to me?" ”

After saying that, I felt something weird, my face was very hot, and Jian Yunshu on the opposite side showed confusion in his eyes, "Your Majesty's people?" ”

He turned his head sideways, not daring to look at Jian Ning, his heart fluttering, "Yes! It's my people! I will cover you in the future, you don't have to be afraid of being bullied, you represent my face, give me some inspection! ”

Janine almost burst out laughing.

Who do you think you are? Can you control who I associate with? Be your own emperor?!

But then I thought about it, isn't he the emperor Laozi? In this day and age......
