Chapter 17: The Untold Secret
And today's queen mother, the most favored person is Ning Shangmo, the eldest princess can go out of the palace to live without marriage, most of the reason is that the queen mother ordered.
In the palace, as long as there is a queen mother, there will be chickens and dogs, and there will never be peace.
But fortunately, the old man is dedicated to the Buddha, and he is very bored in the palace, and he has been consumed in the palace all his life, and he wants to play in the mountains and rivers when he is old.
A few years ago, he went out of the palace to play, all the way to the Buddha, and the palace ushered in a rare peace.
It's a pity that this hard-won peace is also being broken, and the Queen Mother is about to return to the palace for three reasons.
The concubine has a dragon fetus in her womb, she will be the first prince of Da Ling, and nine times out of ten she will become the prince of Da Ling, the queen mother thinks that she must be at such an important moment, and the emperor and the concubine have already had a headache.
Ning Shangmo has already reached the age of marriage, but he has never found a lover, and the Queen Mother is very worried about this, and heard that she has found a lover and wants to return to Beijing to introduce Yu Ning Shangmo.
Ning Shangmo just sneered three times at this, she didn't mind knowing one more person, and she didn't mind coaxing her grandmother to get along with that person more.
I just don't know if my grandmother knew that she had been pointed out to others by her emperor's brother, how wonderful my grandmother's face would be, and how rich the emperor's life would be in the next few years.
And this last thing is that the Queen Mother's 60th birthday is approaching, according to the ancestral system, it should be done, and the Queen Mother has to suspend the play and return to the palace.
I'm afraid that this time, there will be no such day of sightseeing in the future, the Queen Mother is angry in her heart, and Ning Shangmo can guess one or two.
"Xiao Ning'er, do you really want to watch me die?" The emperor cried and mourned, looking pitiful, where is there any emperor majesty, everyone was in an uproar, especially Nayun Yishu, his mouth was slightly open, his eyes were round, how could he not believe that this was what the Son of Heaven did.
Looking at Ning Shangmo, his eyes were full of admiration, he could make the emperor like this, I am afraid there are not many people in this world!
"It's up to my grandmother to decide, I just watch the play." After saying this, Ning Shangmo smiled proudly, glanced at Ming lightly, and then returned to the house.
Hmph, if you dare to disturb her dreams, you must be prepared to be turned upside down by her.
After Ning Shangmo left, everyone was full of sadness, especially the emperor himself, who looked half-dead, Yunni stood aside, seeing him so entangled, he couldn't say anything about the blame in his mouth, so he had to give up.
Three hours later, Ning Shangmo walked out of the room satisfied, only to find that the crowd in the small courtyard had not dispersed, but looked at him with red eyes, looking like he had nothing to love.
And the emperor's eyes were more anxious.
"How?" Ning Shangmo walked quickly to the emperor, and for some reason suddenly felt uneasy.
"Xiao Ning'er, we all guessed wrong." The emperor sighed helplessly, and just as Ning Shangmo was returning to his room to rest, a secret report suddenly came...
Thinking of the secret protection, the emperor's face suddenly showed a look of embarrassment, looked at the people around him, and the words in his mouth were still not spoken.
"What's the matter! Everyone present is a friend, so there is no need to hide it. Ning Shangmo didn't care, the person who could enter her courtyard was the person she Ning Shangmo recognized, she never hid anything from her friends, and she didn't worry about anything!
Everyone was shocked, what the emperor wanted to say must be a major national event, and Ning Shangmo did not shy away from them, and believed in them as well, just because of this, they should not keep this matter a secret.
And Yun Yishu was already excited.
Leng Qingrong firmly believed that if it weren't for the embarrassing timing, Yun Yishu would have knelt down in front of him to express his heartfelt feelings, and Leng Qingrong had nothing to say about it.
But I have to admit that this matter is a very important thing for him and for the friends around Ning Shangmo.
"Report from the border pass, the army is pressing!" The eight big characters, like a mountain, pressed everyone, and for a while they only felt tired and unstable.
Ning Shangmo was even more so, and the first thing she did after knowing about this was to find Ming Qingyan.
There was no result, and among the people present, there was no trace of the orchid. For some reason, Ning Shangmo only felt a darkness in his heart, and he didn't think much about it, and began to think about it in a blink of an eye.
"What is the situation at the border now, the other party is Mongolia? How many centaurs are there? In just an instant, Ning Shangmo once again recovered into that shrewd person, constantly calculating in his heart, asking for border information.
"Let's go to the study and talk!" The emperor sighed, and the last thing he wanted to see was here.
In the study, Ning Shangmo was suddenly a little embarrassed, the location that should have been filled with books was filled with all kinds of treasures, if he knew that this was the study, it would be fine, if he didn't know, he thought that he had stepped into the treasure pavilion!
Some of the things in them may not be able to be found in a lifetime, let alone a few of them that are priceless.
The emperor subconsciously twitched his eyebrows, should he discuss it with Xiao Ning'er, some things are much safer to put in the treasury than in this study.
As for the remaining few, they had already looked at the people in front of them with extremely resentful eyes, everyone said that this Ning Mansion controlled half of the wealth of the entire continent, although they knew that Ning Shangmo was very talented, but they just smiled at this, half of the wealth of the entire continent, how much it was, they couldn't imagine.
It's just that they think others are boasting, and now they are beginning to vaguely believe that there is a basis for this!
Ning Shangmo pulled the hem of his skirt awkwardly, trying to focus everyone's eyes on him, but it was a pity that even if he was a beautiful person, he had never had the charm of a treasure.
Ning Shangmo had to use extraordinary means to make everyone wake up and return to the topic.
Looking at the huge map in front of him, the emperor couldn't accept it for a while, why was there such a realistic map in the Ning Mansion, and he had never seen it in the palace! This is simply unforgivable!
"I invited Jiangnan embroiderers, more than 50 people, and it took three years to embroider." Ning Shangmo's words made the emperor silently swallow the words that had reached his mouth.
You are rich, you are arrogant, he is poor, and he is not comparable!
"Today, it is estimated that only 100,000 troops are approaching. But there is no guarantee that there will be support in the future, if it is support......" Later, the emperor did not say any more, but everyone present was very clear about what he wanted to express.
"But Mongolia!" Ning Shangmo was a little worried, no woman should be asked about national affairs in this round, but this matter is a matter of heavy responsibility, and she has to pay attention.
"This is the second thing I want to say, the other party is Northern Mongolia, Mongolia is divided into Northern Mongolia, and Inner Mongolia, Northern Mongolia is fierce and warlike, Inner Mongolia is like the Central Plains, and this time they not only pressed the border with the army, but also asked Daling to send a mission, the banner is to celebrate the birthday of the Queen Mother!" After the emperor had told everything about it, he sat down on his chair without saying a word.
After listening to his narration, Ning Shangmo only had a general idea of this matter, and he only felt very funny for a while.
"Don't worry, as I said, as long as you do it properly, this battle won't start." Before Ning Shangmo's words fell, the prime minister pushed the door in.
"What Ning Shangmo said is extremely true, from the Northern Mongolian spies have found out, all this is to build momentum for the mission, and the envoy is the most favored princess in Northern Mongolia, the purpose is to make peace with Da Ling and get married forever." There are still delicate beads of sweat on his forehead, and he has not stopped for a moment since he knew about it, and he finally figured out the context of the matter.
At the same time, I am extremely glad that things are not as bad as imagined.
"I will let the military department do the specific things, and as for the things that come to the envoys, the specific ones are being discussed." The emperor left in a hurry after leaving these words, presumably this matter was really important, so important that even his beloved concubine was forgotten in the Ning Mansion.
In this regard, Yun Ni generously said that she didn't care about these details at all, but in the blink of an eye, she cursed the emperor for impotence countless times in her heart, and even waved her hand to inform Ning Shangmo that she had been particularly unhappy in the past few days, and now she is staying in Ning Mansion for a few days!
"Scatter, scatter!" Ning Shangmo gritted his teeth and coaxed people, every time it was like this, as long as the two quarreled, Ning Yunni would run from the palace to the Ning Mansion, eat her, drink her, sleep her, she just wanted to ask, is it really good like this!
It's a pity that even if she is not angry in her heart, there has never been any result, so she can only accept her fate!
For a while, everyone dispersed, only Ming Qingyan never left, standing at the door, looking directly at Ning Shangmo.
In his eyes, he was full of imperativeness.
"The second day is almost over." After leaving this sentence, Ming Xiang also left in a hurry, and after a long time, there was a sound in the study, and a curse resounded throughout the Ning Mansion.
If you want to ask, what is the hottest gossip in the capital, then there will definitely be a mother-in-law who will tell you that of course it is the Ningfu family who can't marry for 10,000 years, and she wants to marry Ming.
Of course, this is only a premise, and if you show great interest, your mother-in-law will secretly tell you the secret behind it.
It is said that when he was a family member in Ningfu, he went to Hua Street to pick up a man with a beautiful country and came back that night.
And the most important thing is that this man seems to have a little connection with Prime Minister Ming, according to my eighth uncle's grandfather's niece's sister's mother-in-law's mother-in-law's second aunt's grandmother's little granddaughter's classmate's distant cousin, who works in the Ning Mansion.
He secretly told that Prime Minister Ming had been sleeping all night with excitement that night, and he didn't even go to the bedroom of the head of Ning Mansion, but went directly to the man's room.
All night, it seems that Prime Minister Ming is really a couple with that man.
The mother-in-law is talking about the dancing eyebrows, which at first is just whispering to the same person, but as there are more and more curious people, there are more and more onlookers.
The mother-in-law's voice became louder and louder, and the content of the story began to deviate, and everyone sighed one after another, and some people even sympathized with Ning Fu's family.
It's just that this group of people didn't notice that there was a pair of indifferent eyes behind the crowd, watching everything.
Seeing that everyone was very interested in this, he left in a hurry.
