In the evening, most of the people who were sent out to Shannan along the official road to find Ning Shunzhong came back, and Zhuo Zhaojie passed the head of the person in front of Ning Ruicheng and Ning Ruiwan to enter the 'door' to proclaim, and the person saluted and said concisely: "The little one was ordered by the master mother to search for five post stations in Shannan along the way, but there was no trace of Ning Shunzhong, and I didn't hear that such a person had stayed. ”

He also said, "Because the mistress told me that I had to come back today to tell me, I brought the small one back first, and left a few people to continue to ask along the way." ”

The vicinity of Gyeonggi is a post of ten miles, which means that these people have searched out a full fifty miles, and there are still people who continue to Shannan.

And the day when Ning Shunzhong and Ning Ruicheng made an appointment to arrive in Chang'an was early yesterday and late today.

Ning Ruicheng listened and was silent for a long time. It's not that she doesn't suspect that Zhuo Zhaojie made people lose her mouth and deliberately came to coax herself, but before she was in a big mess, she agreed that Zhuo Zhaojie would send someone to find Ning Shunzhong, and now if she asks the second room back...... Now the big house is completely at a disadvantage.

She has parents and younger siblings, and children and daughters...... As a last resort, no matter how doubtful it is, it can't be unbearable.

So after being silent for a long time, Ning Ruicheng said softly: "Sure enough." ”

"Eldest sister, although I have been in the 'door' for a year, you also know that there are few people in the second room, and I was pregnant before." Zhuo Zhaojie sent the person down, took a sip of tea, and said, "So the servant of the Ning family, in fact, I don't know very well. However, when I had just passed the 'gate' before, the original chief manager of the Hou Mansion here was called Ning Shizhong. Because he was not careful, he was punished by Jiulang, and then he was gone. I heard that this Ning Shunzhong's name seems to be very similar to this Ning Shizhong? What is the unknown relationship? ”

Ning Ruiwan sighed and said, "Aren't they cousins?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie's eyes turned and said: "I heard that Ning Shizhong is an old man left by his grandfather before his death, since this Ning Shunzhong is a cousin with him, I'm afraid it is the same?" ”

"Ning Shunzhong has always served his father, and when the family was separated, it was directly assigned to his father's name." Ning Ruicheng said with a heavy gaze, she had already thought of what Zhuo Zhaojie was going to say.

"In that case, then this time Ning Shunzhong, the slave who deceived the eldest sister, seems to have something to do with our second room-should he deliberately instigate our two rooms for Ning Shizhong's revenge?" Zhuo Zhaojie sighed lightly and said.

- However, it is also possible that you bought it in the second room!

Ning Ruicheng was silent for a moment, until Ning Ruiwan looked at her worriedly, and then said lightly: "That's about it, but it's a pity that others can't find it, otherwise you can ask clearly." ”

"I'll go into the palace tomorrow and tell the queen about it." Zhuo Zhaojie said gently, and then blocked what Ning Ruicheng wanted to say, "The eldest sister and the fourth sister have been bullied by that Diao slave for the past few days, and the eldest uncle and aunt are sad, I think they are extremely tired, and in the past two days, please rest in the house." The two sisters must not see each other, just take this place as when they were in the Guogong Mansion, if there is anything bad or unaccustomed, they all say to Ah Xing - I will point her to the two sisters in the past few days, sister don't laugh at me, I will point to her one, I see that the two sisters are also bringing the people who are serving around them today, after all, these people are more considerate of the habits of the two sisters; Second, it's really embarrassing, I got pregnant before I sorted things out, and now I have two little ancestors under my knees, no, manpower is also stretched, and I really can't even more people. ”

Ning Ruicheng and Ning Ruiwan had no way to stay, and they didn't come to enjoy it, so they naturally didn't care if the Zhuo Zhaojie faction sent people to serve, after all, they really didn't lack people to serve. Hearing Zhuo Zhaojie say this, they all shirked: "The ninth brother and sister have added a little nephew and little niece 'daughter' here, we should not have come in a hurry without a congratulatory gift, and now we are robbing the nephews' descendants, where is it embarrassing?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie exchanged a few polite words with them, and didn't mention the words of pushing the boat over to serve them.

In this way, when it was time for dinner, according to Zhuo Zhaojie, he wanted to continue to invite them to eat together, but Luan Nu came in and said without squinting: "Shizi 'woman', Shizi said that he had ordered someone to prepare a banquet in the courtyard of Shi Niang for the eldest mother and fourth mother. ”

Then he immediately said, "The prince also said that the eldest lady and the fourth lady are not outsiders, they are all their own relatives, and now they don't just live for a day or two, so there is no need to accompany the eldest lady and the fourth lady to eat, after all, the eldest lady and the fourth lady are worried about Jiannan, and they are afraid that there will be too many people to eat." ”

“……………………”

The three of them were silent for a long time, and Ning Ruicheng got up decisively: "Thank you for your thoughtfulness, since this is the case, then the ninth brother and sister will stay, and Siniang and I will go to Shiniang's yard first." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie sighed again and again in his heart: "Jiulang, you really did it!" ”

Does he dare to euphemistically drive people away?!

Ning Ruicheng and Ning Ruiwan went to the courtyard where Ning Xianrong lived before leaving the pavilion - although Ning Shaobi was shameless, she didn't lie this time, the delicacies had been prepared in the main hall, and there was a pot of 'spring' wine next to it.

But the two sisters don't know how to eat now, so they used some casually, so they waved the original subordinates away, and by familiarizing themselves with the house, they turned everywhere, so they chose the safest side room, and sent someone to guard the front and back of the house, and discussed: "Sister, look at what Zhuo said is true?" ”

"When will it be her turn to be in charge of the Yongcheng Hou Mansion?" Ning Ruicheng sneered and said, "It really may be no more than fifty percent at most." ”

"But the second uncle has never liked to talk much, and the ninth brother's 'temperament' is domineering, which is different from us being a man and a woman. In this house, she is really the only one who can talk to us for a long time. Ning Ruiwan hesitated and said, "In this way, she may not be all perfunctory to us, right?" ”

Ning Ruicheng sighed and said, "Fool! Fifty percent of what I said may be false, it's Ning Shunzhong! Although the front and back of the house were full of people, Ning Ruicheng's voice was still low, "How many cronies did our father and mother buy and 'insert' in the second room back then?" Who knows if Ning Shunzhong is from the second room? Otherwise, look at this time, I galloped to Chang'an in the starry night and pulled you out of the Xu family, our sisters don't want to be decent anymore, and we all have filial piety - but what is the result? Father and mother are still alive! Zhuo's turned the tide with this one! You said...... Looking back, didn't we run to the second room to embarrass ourselves? ”

"What does it matter if we are disgraced or not now?" Ning Ruiwan bit her lip and said, "As long as my father and mother and my brothers and brothers are well, let's ...... Let's just get angry in this second room, and we all endure it! ”

Ning Ruicheng's eyes were heavy, and he said, "That's what I'm worried about. You said that if Ning Shunzhong was a person from the second room, he didn't stay in Jiannan to stare at his father and mother, but ran to Shannan to lie to me - why is this? This lie is actually very easy to debunk, before we went to Chang'an, if we calm down and ask an official, I'm afraid we will be able to see through it. Could it be that he just went to Chang'an to trick us? ”

Ning Ruiwan was surprised: "Then he...... No, what does the second room want to do? ”

"Do you remember Zhuo's hint earlier?" Ning Ruicheng said in a deep voice, "She hinted that we, my father, mother, and our brothers had suffered from miasma after a year in Jiannan...... I'm afraid it has something to do with the king of Yanchang County! ”

"What?!" When Ning Ruiwan heard this, she was shocked and said, "She...... Of course she said that, but, how could that be? Mother, she is the aunt of the princess of Yanchang County! And my father has done his best for the king of Yanchang over the years! If it weren't for the king of Yanchang County, how could my father, mother, and the brothers in our room be relegated to Jiannan? Grandmother...... Grandmother sat back and watched the saint's decree, not because she didn't want her father to continue to be involved in the seizure of the prince - isn't this what you said, eldest sister? ”

Ning Ruicheng sneered and said: "It's not that even ordinary people's brothers fight for some family property, it is not without trouble that people will die, not to mention the position of the prince?" What if our mother is the aunt of the princess of Yanchang County? As long as you can enter the East Palace, what is the impossibility of letting the princess of Yanchang County take a leave of absence? What's more, my father is now old, and he is burdened with the unfilial crime of having no way to teach and risking his grandmother being poisoned by his subordinates, even if the crown prince ascends the throne, it will be difficult to promote his father again! It is difficult for his father to ascend to a high position, so his usefulness to the king of Yanchang County is naturally small...... But if my father dies, the Yanchang County King faction can take advantage of the situation to make a big fuss! Do you think the king of Yanchang will not start? ”

Ning Ruiwan was so shocked that the 'flower' looked 'colored', stood up, and said, "Then let's go and tell the ninth brother and sister and let her ......."

"Counting on her?!" Ning Ruicheng said disdainfully, "Have you forgotten what I just said again?" That Ning Shunzhong is mostly a person from the second room! ”

Ning Ruiwan said with a smile: "That...... What are you going to do, big sister? You're fooling me! ”

"According to my speculation, I'm afraid this matter is like this - in March, our two twin nephews and nieces were full moon, and the second uncle gave the name of Zhending County King Jinyan at the banquet through the sage, and the Yanchang County King faction saw that the situation was not good, and they actually hit our father and mother with their ideas!" Ning Ruicheng's voice was bitterly cold, and she said softly and slowly, "I intend to use our father's death in exchange for an opportunity to interrogate and shake the saint to support the king of Zhending!" However...... Father's side is not only on the side of the king of Yanchang County. ”

Ning Ruiwan clenched her handkerchief and gasped: "The people in the second room? ”

"yes." Ning Ruicheng smiled coldly, "The second room was either discovered too late, and the king of Yanchang County has already succeeded!" Either they are happy to see it happen, and stand by and watch the murder of our father and mother by the king of Yanchang County...... When his father and mother are not very good now, he is now galloping south of the mountain in the starry night, looking for me to tell the whistle-but pointing the finger at the Yongcheng Hou Mansion! ”

"But...... If Ning Shunzhong is a person in the second room, why should he do this? Ning Ruiwan asked blankly.

Ning Ruicheng knew that his sister's 'temperament' was weak and a little naïve-otherwise, he would not have been coaxed into believing it by a few scripts back then, and he would have really followed the description in it to find Ruyi Langjun - at this moment, he only sighed, and said patiently: "Naturally, it is because the matter was not done in the second room at all, but the king of Yanchang County, who really harmed our father and mother, of course tried to frame this matter to the second room-so, Ning Shunzhong rushed to Shannan first, and lied that our parents had ...... Do you think I can endure it? Naturally, I want to enter Chang'an! When I arrived in Chang'an, I either went to the second room to make trouble, or went to the palace 'door' to complain, or begged my grandmother to call the shots...... All in all, this matter is ultimately a matter of going to the palace to ask for a holy judgment! ”

"And the king of Yanchang wants to frame the crime to the second room, how can it be so easy? Our father was exiled, even if the second room didn't pay attention, would the king of Zhending County 'take time' to pay attention? After all, they want Chenguang to arrange the planning and confrontation. Ning Ruicheng sneered and said, "So Ning Shunzhong said that his father and mother had been killed by the second room, and the two of us sisters came to Chang'an to make a big fuss with the second room!" After such a fuss, the second room took the opportunity to ask the sage to explain right and wrong, and the sage will send an envoy to find out the truth, and wait for the king of Yanchang County to do the matter satisfactorily and expose it, and then send an angel to Jiannan, which one is easier to find out the innocence of the second room? After all, this will make the king of Yanchang County have not impeached the second room on this matter, and the second room knows that the king of Yanchang intends to frame him, can he still just run to the emperor and say that he is going to be wronged? ”

Ning Ruicheng's analysis was really meticulous, Ning Ruiwan listened to it, and couldn't help crying: "Poor father and mother are now exiled to remote places such as Jiannan, why can't these people let them go?" He said with the hope of what happened, "But my father and mother will be gone, which is not a good thing for the second room, will the second room try its best to protect them?" ”

Ning Ruicheng was silent.

If her speculation is correct, Ning Shunzhong is really from the second room, and the reason for lying about the bad news is to 'provoke' her sister to enter Chang'an to find the second room to ask for the guilt - so that the second room has a reason to prove her innocence now, so as to 'disrupt' the arrangement and design of the Yanchang County Wang faction.

Now that his sister has made trouble, for the second room, since the goal has been achieved, why should the second room care about the life and death of Ning Zhan and Ou Shi?

But she didn't dare to tell her sister.

At this moment, Mrs. Ning's thoughts were actually the same as Ning Ruiwan's, although she already had an ominous premonition in her heart, she still couldn't believe it, couldn't believe it, and was unwilling to believe it. Always looking forward to it, maybe there will be an accident and a turn of fate?
