In the early spring, the new rain is dyed green.

The gentle spring rain fell on the city of Pingzhou, as if covering this border city with a thin veil.

A magnificent carriage galloped through the alleys of the city, and where the horse's hooves stepped on, it stirred up strings of crystal water.

In the carriage, Meng Jing was wrapped in a thick coat, and the rainy day in early spring was cold, and he was weak during the day, so he could only shrink into his clothes.

Today, he was going to visit a person he had always wanted to see - Ning Jing'er, since that night's bloody rain, Meng Jing had only seen Ning Jing'er once, and he didn't say much.

Recently, Meng Jing heard about something, and he wanted to ask Ning Jing'er, maybe it was because Meng Jing indirectly contributed to Ning Dan's death, and he always felt a little uncomfortable going to see Ning Jing'er.

Opposite Meng Jing, Guo Dongtai sat stiffly, and he was reporting something to Meng Jing.

"Lord Wang, Miss Ning has done a lot of great things in the past few days, she took advantage of the time when the prince was rectifying the Wei family and other families, and annexed a large number of industries of other families, and now the power of the Ning family has far exceeded that of the Wei family, and the heads of those families have changed their doors and chose to attach themselves to the Ning family. ”

Meng Jing listened quietly, thinking of the arrogant eldest lady who used to be, and couldn't help but think about it.

Guo Dongtai continued: "Miss Ning does have some ability, but the petty official has something unclear, the Tu family deducted most of the cash of the families at that time, and all the families are now having difficulty turnover, but the situation of the Ning family is very good, where did the Ning family get the money to annex the industry?"

This is indeed strange, even if the Ning family was strong before, after losing both with the Tu family, it would be impossible to swallow so many industries.

"We'll soon find out why. ”

Meng Jing replied with a smile, and then said no more.

From the information provided by Xue Jianxiao these days, he has already guessed some eyebrows, and he went to visit Ning Mansion today to confirm his guess.

It wasn't long before the carriage stopped, and the voice of the coachman was heard outside.

"Lord Wang, Ningfu has arrived. ”

Meng Jing lifted the curtain of the carriage window and saw the familiar mansion and the two big characters "Ning Mansion" on the door plaque.

"Master Guo, you don't have to go in, this king will go in and do some business, and he will come back soon. ”

After that, Meng Jing got out of the carriage with the support of the coachman and went directly into the Ning Mansion.

Guo Dongtai felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and said to himself:

"He went in for tea and left me here to blow the cool breeze, which was too unkind. ”

He remembered the rumors not long ago, the prince and Miss Ning had mutual affection, could it be that the rumors were true?

It must be true, no wonder the prince has never suppressed the Ning family, it turns out that there is such a relationship behind it.

"The prince went to Lang to love the concubine, but his subordinates threw it aside, alas. ”

"I'm also an elder in terms of age, and now young people don't know how to respect the old at all, it's really a bad day, so let's go to my little peach and talk to me......"

Thinking about it, Guo Dongtai got out of the carriage and walked out humming a small tune.

Seeing this, the coachman shouted, "My lord, the prince asked us to wait for him here, what are you going to do?"

Guo Dong didn't look back, still humming a minor tune, just waving his hand.

"This official is going to Weifu for a private visit to investigate the people's feelings, you must not say much. ”

The coachman thought about it, understood the meaning, and asked no more.

In the Ning Mansion, Meng Jing came to the living room under the traction of the housekeeper of the Ning Mansion.

Meng Jing sat down casually, took the tea cup on the table, and took a few sips to drive away the cold.

As soon as the tea was entered, I heard a thin footstep at the door.

"The prince is so busy, he actually has time to come to my small house and courtyard to drink tea. ”

As soon as Meng Jing raised his head, a face with delicate facial features and watery eyes appeared in front of him, it was Ning Jing'er.

After not seeing her for a while, she lost some weight, perhaps because she was too tired from running a huge family business.

"If you have nothing to do, let's take a look. ”

Meng Jing didn't go straight to the point.

Ning Jing'er had always thought that he was a down-and-out prince who was waiting for death, and his only advantage was that he was a good chat partner.

But that night, Ning Jing'er was rescued by Meng Jing, and she also discovered Meng Jing's identity as "Sword Demon Crazy Nine", she completely changed her opinion of Meng Jing, this is a person with amazing strategy, ambition, and extremely good at forbearance, and people with these three points will definitely become a hero.

Ning Jinger has admired such heroic heroes since she was a child, and has always fantasized that her wishful husband can do the same.

Meng Jing's appearance made her have a subtle affection, I don't know whether it is respect or admiration.

Love is like this, it always comes quietly inadvertently.

Meng Jing's sudden visit today, Ning Jing'er was overjoyed, and she specially dressed up in the boudoir for a while, and asked the maid to apply rouge gouache that had never been used for her to cover the tiredness on her face.

But reason told her that Meng Jing was definitely not just coming to her to catch up, there must be something else.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Seeing this, Meng Jing also said directly: "This king wants to inquire about one thing, the Tu family has detained 30,000 taels from various families and is still missing, can Miss Ning know some news?"

Ning Jing'er's expression changed slightly when she heard this, her beautiful eyes turned, she looked at Meng Jing with some shock, and said vigilantly:

"There are many people in the palace who have not been able to find out their whereabouts, how can I have clues from a small family?"

Ning Jing'er said very resolutely, but the panic between her eyebrows had already made Meng Jing see the clues.

And sure enough, the three hundred and twenty thousand silver were here.

Two days ago, Xue Jianxiao came to report, saying that he had found a vendor who was in a hurry to gather early, and before Tufu was copied, he saw a team of carriages sneaking away from the back door of Tuhu, and the traders followed all the way out of curiosity, and finally saw that these carriages had entered Ningfu.

Obviously, the carriage was filled with the three million taels of silver that had disappeared.

Meng Jing speculated on this matter and gradually figured out what happened.

A man like Ning Dan, in the face of the Tu family's advance, will definitely have a back hand, he secretly ordered the lurking in the eyes of the Tu family, taking advantage of the Dragon Gate Festival to attract everyone's attention, and secretly steal the three million taels hidden in the Tu Mansion.

As a result, the Tu family didn't let him survive the Longmen Festival, and after only one point, Ning Dan turned the tables, but success or failure was overnight, and there was no chance to start over.

"This king is very sure that the three million taels were taken away by the Ning Mansion, and General Zhonglang has already found out. ”

The words have already been pointed out, and there is no need to go around any more.

Meng Jing mentioned General Zhonglang just to remind Ning Jing'er that he did already know the truth, after all, General Zhonglang's ability to do things is well known.

The purpose of the words is also very clear, Meng Jing wants to return this silver to the Xinwang Mansion, and the prince who was tortured by the silver is trying his best to fight for every opportunity to earn silver reasonably.

When Ning Jing'er heard this, she smiled faintly:

"The silver is in Ningfu, I admit it, so what?"

As soon as he heard the words "so what", Meng Jing knew that the rest of the conversation was a scoundrel.

Meng Jing snorted lightly, this kind of thing is ridiculous, but his unique skill, from childhood to adulthood, has never been afraid of anyone in quarrels, after all, he is the best at "convincing people with reason".
