Chapter 262: Born to Restrain Each Other
Water bandits, success also depends on water, defeat is also water.
The ability to flexibly rely on waterways to escape is their forte.
However, the need to resupply ships is also their drawback!
Xie Yunyan easily thought of this layer, and couldn't help but impress Ning Shu.
"The court is understaffed, and it can't be enough to deter the Triad Gang, what should you do?"
Ning Shu continued to ask.
Xie Yunyan smiled again.
He took all the pens from the pen holder, dipped the thickest one in ink, and after making a random drawing on the paper, he found the thinnest one, and added another stroke to the original ink stain.
Throwing the pen aside, he asked Ning Shu with a smile: "You only saw that the front was drawn with a thick brush, how do you know that the back stroke is indiscriminate?" β
Ning Shu nodded, which was in response to his suggestion.
"Then how do you make sure that you can find the Triad on the water?"
"This may be the best proof that God is also on our side, because we know Gang Master Shen!"
The Jade Dragon Gang and the Sanhe Gang have reached the point where they are incompatible.
The imperial court helped the Jade Dragon Gang eradicate the Triad Gang, and I believe that Shen Yu would not refuse.
Andββ
Xie Yunyan's sword eyebrows frowned slightly.
"I don't know if it's my delusion, I always feel that the Shen gang leader should not be the leader of the bandits, but should be in the court."
Ning Shu's tense heart suddenly relaxed, and she smiled and said, "I have no way of knowing what the ambition of Gang Master Shen is, but I also want to offer advice to Your Majesty according to what you said, presumably the people sent by Your Majesty to persuade Gang Master Shen have already set off!" β
"Oh?" Xie Yunyan raised his eyebrows and looked at Ning Shu, "So you have already thought of it?" β
Ning Shu smiled silently.
"Then why are you asking me?" Xie Yunyan was puzzled.
Ning Shu sighed: "Because I want to confirm your thoughts, now Your Majesty Long Grace is mighty, so you will not be allowed to go to the court to discuss matters." But in the future, even if your memory is not restored, Your Majesty should let you go to court. I just want to test you whether you still have these basic means of dealing with the government. β
She just figured out his thoughts, came up with this result, and admonished the emperor according to Xie Yunyan's previous practices.
One thing is fine, but too much is not.
Xie Yunyan still has to go to the court to be an official after all, and it should be beneficial for him to test how to deal with things in advance.
Xie Yunyan smiled lightly: "I see, then are you still satisfied with my answer?" β
Ning Shu nodded, already very satisfied.
In fact, to deal with the matter of the Sanhe Gang, it was thanks to her knowing Shen Yu and being familiar with the local situation that she came up with this clever plan.
If it were something else, she would probably have to sit idly by.
"This is your study, and the books stored in it are all your treasures, if you have nothing to do, you can spend some time in the study and try to think of something by the way."
Ning Shu came to the bookshelf and took out two books casually, one was held by herself, and the other was handed to Xie Yunyan and said, "Read more, write more, think more, it will help you." β
"Okay." Xie Yunyan also wanted to know what kind of person he used to be.
Looking down, Ning Shu took a book of unsigned notes.
He flipped through it slowly, and the contents of it won his heart.
"That's what I wrote?"
Xie Yunyan immersed himself in the notes and asked Ning Shu.
Ning Shu only thought he was asking casually, but did not answer.
The air in the study gradually quieted.
Both of them focused on the books in their hands and did not disturb each other.
After a while, Shuang'er brought two bowls of sweet soup, breaking the reassuring silence.
"Madam, my lord, this is sent by the slave and maid ordered by the Duchess of the Kingdom."
Ning Shu glanced at the soup bowl in her hand, which contained longan, lotus seeds, and jujubes-
"Serve it to your lords."
Shuang'er obeyed the order, carefully put down the soup bowl, and was about to leave, but heard Ning Shu ask: "What news is there from Lord Qi and Mrs. Qi during my absence?" β
"Mrs. Qi has sent someone to ask Mrs. a few times, but Lord Qi has never heard of it."
Frost tilted her head in reply.
Ning Shu bowed slightly, neither she nor Xie Yunyan were in Kyoto, even if Qi Chengan found out something about Wuliang Villa, it was impossible to tell others at will.
She was thinking about whether to find a time to visit Mrs. Qi, but when Cao Cao arrived, Mrs. Qi's coquettish cheers had already come from outside the door.
"Where? What do you do in your study in broad daylight? β
Yuan Wu guided in front and smiled: "We adults like to read. β
"I'm asking your lady!" Mrs. Qi never cared about Xie Yunyan's preferences.
While speaking, Ning Shu had already walked out of the door and responded with a smile: "Sister Zhu, are you here?" β
She glanced at Mrs. Qi's stomach, which was still flat.
Mrs. Qi's eyes lit up when she saw Ning Shu, and she rushed over with the wind on the soles of her feet, grabbed Ning Shu's hands and asked, "Why did you come back?" I miss you to death! β
With Mrs. Qi's reputation in Kyoto, if you want to find someone who can speak out without taboos, there is only Ning Shu!
Ning Shu helped Mrs. Qi and said with a smile: "Sister, you are slower, the fetus in the womb is still unstable." β
"That's it! Mrs. Xie, you are back, please hurry up and persuade her, not only does she not pay attention, but she even wants to practice martial arts-"
Qi Cheng'an followed behind Mrs. Qi with a black line on his face, and smiled at Ning Shu far-fetchedly.
Ning Shu blessed her body, "Lord Qi." β
Qi Chengan's complexion was more than a star and a half worse than that of the radiant Mrs. Qi, and he should have suffered a lot of psychological torture in the past month or so.
"Don't listen to him, I haven't had any symptoms of joy until now, I'm in good health, just count him for making a fuss!"
Mrs. Qi glared at Qi Cheng'an, when she faced Ning Shu, her face changed faster than the sky, and that real smile came from within, which was a face that Qi Cheng'an hadn't seen for a long time.
Ning Shu invited the two of them into the room, "It's windy outside, come in and say." β
He ordered Long Shan to add some carbon to the stove, and Ning Shu closed the door of the study.
Qi Chengan obviously came for something, but he didn't say anything directly, but stared at Xie Yunyan deadly.
"He, really amnesia?"
The emperor controlled the news of Xie Yunyan's amnesia, who is Qi Chengan? He can't wait for Xie Yunyan to have a few hairs on his body that he wants to figure out!
Ning Shu nodded gloomily.
Xie Yunyan sat there, looked at Qi Chengan for a long time, and said hesitantly: "Are you-Qi Chengan?" β
"Do you recognize me?" Qi Chengan stepped forward excitedly.
Ning Shu also straightened her back and looked at Xie Yunyan.
Xie Yunyan was stared at by everyone, and pointed at Ning Shu awkwardly: "I don't remember, it's just that she told me that I was born with you, and I felt disgusted with you the moment I saw you, so I concluded that you were Qi Chengan!" β
Qi Cheng'an: ......
"Poof!" Mrs. Qi laughed out loud, "Lord Xie can really suppress her husband at any time?!" β
