The two were silent for a while, Jiang Ning looked at Yang Yue'er's pretty face and said:

"Miss Yue'er, the army will leave for Beijing tomorrow and tomorrow."

"Huh?"

Yang Yue'er was stunned for a moment, pursed her lips and said:

In this case, the little woman should have left.

The little woman is here to wish Lord Jiang a smooth journey and a safe arrival in Beijing. ”

Jiang Ning smiled dumbly, shook his head and said:

"That's not what I meant, it's not time to part yet."

Yang Yue'er always felt that this was so strange to hear, so she didn't look at it and said coquettishly:

"Then you are so decent, why do you say this to me?"

"I'm afraid that if I don't say it at this time, I won't have a chance to say it next."

Jiang Ning said with a serious face.

Yang Yue'er subconsciously took a few steps back, her pretty face was so red that she seemed to be dripping blood, and she stomped on her lotus foot and said:

"You, don't say it. Or I'll beat you! ”

"I must say."

Jiang Ning took a step forward, stared at Yang Yue'er's beautiful eyes, and said seriously:

"Miss Yue'er, actually, I heard everything you said to your brother."

Yang Yue'er came back to her senses, and her cheeks, which were still ruddy just now, suddenly turned pale.

For some reason, she just didn't want Jiang Ning to know that she had such an unbearable brother and a rotten experience.

She bit her little mouth tightly and said, "So, what do you want to say?" ”

Again, since things have come to this point, you should no longer follow your obsessive brother on this path of death.

Otherwise, it will only be all the people in your Yang family village who will be implicated, including the old, weak, women and children. ”

"Are you threatening me?"

"I didn't mean that. On the contrary, I want you to have a good talk with your father, and if you figure it out, just come to me, and I will find a way to let the court recruit you.

After all, there is wealth in the second half of his life.

As for Yang Hu, it didn't work. If he dares to make a comeback, there is only a dead end. ”

Yang Yue'er was stunned and laughed at herself:

"I'm a daughter, and I'm going to get married anyway.

Since my father retired and my brother took over the village, I have listened to him in big and small things, how can I speak.

But don't worry, I'll give it a try.

It's just that you're so sure that my brother can't make it? ”

Jiang Ning said firmly:

"You can also see that in fact, your brother is not a good man at all.

On the contrary, for his own purposes, he is ruthless, narrow-minded, and extremely reckless.

Before it was done, he was able to assassinate his old brothers who were born and died, what great thing can such a person do?

Tell him to divide a state and a government, and live a few days of majestic life, which can be regarded as his luck. ”

Yang Yue'er clenched her pink fists, lowered her head, and her pretty face was not bloody.

Jiang Ning saw an inexplicable feeling of pity in his heart, suddenly grabbed her soft, and walked to the calligraphy and painting stall next to her.

"You, you let me go."

Yang Yue'er was in a trance, but she just subconsciously shouted a few words, but she didn't use any strength in her hands, she didn't break away, but let Jiang Ning pull her away.

"What kind of calligraphy and painting do you want? Little old man is full of good things here. ”

The old master, who sells calligraphy and paintings, saw a customer coming to the door, and he put on a smiling face.

Seeing the appearance of the two, he took it for granted that he was husband and wife.

After all, under the big tomorrow, ethics are constant, and it is not a husband and wife who dare to pull and pull on the street.

When Yang Yue'er heard this, she opened her mouth to refute it, but she didn't open her mouth.

Otherwise, it is still his own innocent reputation that will be tarnished out of thin air.

Although her innocence has been ......

Thinking of this, Yang Yue'er gritted her teeth and glared at Jiang Ning hatefully.

Jiang Ning just didn't see it, let go of her tender little hand, and said to the old master:

"Mr. Lao Fu painted a picture in her image, and it must be like something."

The old master said confidently: "Don't worry, the little old man is the best at writing portraits." ”

"You, what do you do?"

Yang Yue'er took a sip, but her face was a little eager to try.

When he's so big, no one has ever painted him.

Jiang Ning smiled and pulled her back a few steps to facilitate the old master's drawing.

In just one stick of incense, the painting is complete.

Yang Yue'er took it happily and carefully dried the ink.

I saw that the person in the painting has a slender waist and bundle, the skin is like condensation, the posture is pretty, and the appearance is soft and graceful.

It's not like her.

"The old gentleman is very skilled, it is really very similar."

Yang Yue'er's bright eyes were full of joy.

Jiang Ning glanced at it, but he was not very satisfied, and said:

"Please draw another one, old gentleman.

Just pay attention, but you can't paint it so delicate and pitiful anymore, you need to paint her sassy and heroic spirit hidden under charm.

This is different from most women in the world, and this is the only way to fit her. ”

Yang Yue'er heard this, her beautiful eyes were full of color, and she stared at him without blinking for a moment.

She didn't expect that she would be like this in Jiang Ning's eyes.

The old master nodded and re-inked.

This time, he was much more serious, and looked carefully at Jiang Ning's request before starting to write.

"Childe, how about this time?"

"Like, like it."

Jiang Ning stared at the painting in his hand for a long time, as if he was fascinated.

Yang Yue'er's heart trembled, and she snatched it over: "I, I'll see for myself." ”

She lowered her head, looking at the unique temperament that came to her face in the painting, and her beautiful eyes narrowed into crescents with a smile.

Jiang Ning smiled, took out ten taels of silver and handed it to the old master.

"Thank you, Childe!"

The old master took it happily, and kept saying clever things in his mouth.

Seeing this, Yang Yue'er suddenly pulled Jiang Ning aside and returned the two paintings.

"Give it back to you, I don't want it."

"Why?"

"It's about to be separated, and if there is a chance to see each other in the future, I'm afraid that I'm going to have a big fight again.

I don't want it, so I don't owe you favors, and I won't have a burden in the future. ”

Jiang Ning looked at her for a long time before he sighed faintly:

"Since you've decided, then it's naturally hard for me to say anything more.

It's just these two paintings, please be sure to accept them, just leave a memory.

What's more, I owe you it, and I may not be able to pay it off in my lifetime. ”

Yang Yue'er said angrily: "When are you going to mention that matter?" Said no! ”

With that, she stomped her foot and walked briskly forward.

Jiang Ning hurriedly chased after him: "It's mine, no, I will never mention it again in the future." ”

"Then you're not still mentioning it!

If you say another word now, I, I'll tear your tongue apart!

What a disciple, stay away from me, don't lean over! ”

Early in the morning.

Outside the city gate, the honor guard of the Son of Heaven has been fully organized, and under the respectful send-off of local officials, the army escorted Zhu Houzhao and slowly marched towards the capital.

Jiang Ning did not accompany Zhu Houzhao this time, but deliberately stayed at the end.

He rode on a horse, looked at Yang Yue'er in front of him, and handed over a bulging package:

"This is the consultation fee that was promised that day, and I ask the girl to accept it."

Yang Yue'er checked it and casually threw it to the scar lying in the carriage:

"Lord Jiang is polite."

Jiang Ning smiled and took out two more scrolls:

"This is the painting of the day before yesterday, I found someone to frame it, and today I will give it to the girl, and it will be counted as a gift of separation."

Yang Yue'er took it carefully, ignoring Scar's outstretched hand and hiding it in her carry-on package.

"Miss?"

"I'll just take this myself."

Without looking back, Yang Yue'er looked at Jiang Ning, and said with a touch of melancholy in her eyes:

"I hope Lord Jiang cherishes it all the way, and it's best not to see each other in the future."

As she spoke, Yang Yue'er waved her horsewhip and drove the carriage away.

Jiang Ning heard the meaning of her words, stood in place and shouted:

"I hope that I will have the opportunity to ride with the girl in the future!"

Yang Yue'er's beautiful eyes were covered with a layer of fog and sped up.

Under the morning sun, a carriage faded into the horizon.

"Drive!"

Jiang Ning sighed and chased after the army.

Five days later.

The Son of Heaven's guard of honor finally arrived in the capital.

At the gate of the city, hundreds of civil and military officials who got the news early lined up to greet them.

Zhu Houzhao, who had already changed into a dragon robe and crown, looked at the grand greeting ceremony, and was quite complacent.

He had accomplished a great feat on this trip, and began to fantasize about the worship of all officials and people later.

And Jiang Ning first quietly sent Bai Wenqing to escort Meng Wanning to the imperial village before returning to the honor guard.

Zhu Houzhao got off the dragon with a smile, walked to the side and sat down on the temporary high platform, preparing for the civil and military ceremony.

At this moment, a figure flashed out from the front row of the hundred officials and approached Jiang Ning's side.

"My lord, the hundred officials have been holding grudges against His Majesty for leaving the palace without permission for a long time, and I am afraid that it will be difficult today, please be careful."

Jiang Ning was stunned for a moment, looked at Jiao Fang, who quickly returned to his position, and narrowed his eyes.

Just then, a shouting interrupted his thoughts.

"Your Majesty is welcome! Long live Your Majesty! Long live the Ming Dynasty! ”

Under the leadership of Li Dongyang and three other cabinet scholars, hundreds of civil and military officials paid homage to Zhu Houzhao.

"The ministers are exempt from courtesy."
