Chapter Thirty-Seven: Departure to Tanguo
Nangong Ding was smoothly brought back to the Lin Mansion by Drifting Shaohai, and the scene of the reunion of father and daughter after a long absence was unbearable.
Drifting Shaohai and Lin Yixin left with interest, so that they could have a good chat about their private thoughts.
"Father, you have suffered, it is your daughter who is not filial, and it is too late to save the driver. Nangong Shan hugged Nangong Ding, her face full of tears.
"It's not too late, it's not too late, it's just a pity for your mother. Nangong Ding couldn't help crying.
"What's wrong with the queen mother, the sons have been looking for the whereabouts of their father and mother, but there has been no result. ”
"Your mother is frail and sickly, and if she keeps being locked up in a dark and damp place like the Prime Minister's Prison, it will only aggravate her condition. ”
"Is the queen mother also in the prison of the Prime Minister's Mansion, father?" asked Nangong Shan.
"I don't know where your mother is held, and I haven't even seen her since the accident. Nangong Ding said slowly, sighing from time to time.
"Father, don't worry, if your son can rescue you, he will definitely find a way to rescue the queen mother. Father, the son wants to discuss with you what we should do next, what can you do? Nangong Shan wiped away her tears, and the two sat down separately to discuss their next move.
"I have a secret for you, Shan'er. ”
"What's the secret?"
"At the beginning, my father expected that he would suffer today's catastrophe, so he sent someone to hide the money and jewelry of the Nangong family in advance, and carefully designed the location of the treasure into a treasure map. Nangong Ding stroked his hair and narrated very calmly.
"Treasure map, where is the treasure map now?" Nangong Shan was deeply surprised, because if this money could be used to recruit soldiers and horses and make weapons, the chances of winning in the future confrontation would be greatly increased.
"The map of the hidden treasure is so hidden that even I don't know about it. For the sake of absolute secrecy, the people involved in the burial design were executed. So unless there is a treasure map, it is impossible for anyone to find it. Those treasures are the income of our Nangong family for decades, and it contains all the wealth of my Dashan country, if someone can get those wealth, they will not be able to spend it for a lifetime. ”
"How can I find the location of the hidden treasure?" Nangong Shan then asked.
"Looking for Nangong Yang. As long as you find Nangong Yang, there is a way to know. ”
"Sister?"
"Yes, back then, just in case, my father told you the whereabouts of the list of loyal people, and told Nangong Yang the secret of his wealth. Now that you have a large number of men and horses in your hands, and your sister is equivalent to a large amount of military salaries, if you two work together, you will definitely be able to suppress this rebellion and restore the prestige and strength of my Nangong family. ”
"But my sister has married to Tanguo, and now there is no legitimate reason for how to take her back. Moreover, in order to leave the country, it took a lot of effort to avoid the obstruction of the prime minister and others. Now that he wants to return to the country again, Prime Minister Liu You will definitely do his best to chase and kill. ”
"Then I can only send someone to sneak into Tanguo quietly and inform Nangong Yang of this matter, so that the two of you can cooperate. ”
"Well, who is that to send?"
"Of course I believed it. ”
Hearing this, Nangong Shan stood up and walked to the door and called the two people outside the door: "Brother Shaohai, Miss Lin, please come in for a while, there is something important to discuss." So Piao Shaohai and Miss Lin came in one after the other, and Miss Lin spoke first: "What does the princess command?"
"Father, I have decided to go to Tanguo in person. Nangong Shan did not answer Miss Lin, but said to Nangong Ding.
"You're going in person, but you're a girl, and you've never been far away, so it's very dangerous to go, so how can you protect yourself in case of trouble. ”
"I can protect her. Drifting Shaohai walked to Shanshan's side and replied to Nangong Ding.
"You?"
"Yes, father, Brother Shaohai can accompany him. You've seen his skills, and with him, it will definitely be completed smoothly. ”
"If there is no better candidate, it will be like this. ”
"Miss Lin, I'm afraid it will take a long time to go to the country to talk about the country, and I ask Miss Lin to help me take care of my father when I'm away. ”
"The princess can rest assured, she will do her best to protect the emperor's safety. ”
"Then when are you leaving?" Nangong Ding asked Nangong Shan again.
"I want to leave tomorrow, sooner rather than later, so as not to add a lot of variables. ”
"Okay, then the father will sit in the Lin Mansion, and Miss Lin Yixin will be responsible for everything here, you can rest assured. ”
"Hmm. ”
Talking about the country, the hall of flowers.
Nangong Yang sat on a chair and watched the fish swim around in the lake, with a pleasant smile on his face. At this time, the sun is shining and the wind is beautiful. A group of maids took turns to hammer Nangong Yang's back, press their legs, and hold an umbrella to shade the sun, and Nangong Yang's leisurely and almost intoxicated appearance at this time was very fascinating. However, this state was soon broken by a subordinate announcement, and His Royal Highness Hanama came in and said: "Report to the crown princess, there are two people outside the palace who ask to see you." ”
"Oh." It took a long time for Nangong Yang to say a word, then slowly closed his eyes, and his mouth closed one by one, and then continued to confide out two words: "Who?"
"One woman calls herself 'Nangong Shan', and the other says it's her friend's name 'Piao Shaohai'," the servant replied.
"Go down. Nangong Yang was noncommittal, the subordinate didn't know how to reply, and when he was embarrassed to leave, Nangong Yang stopped him and continued: "What do you say, one is called Nangong Shan, and the other is called Piao Shaohai?" Nangong Yang heard Nangong Shan and knew that it was her sister who came to her, but she couldn't guess the reason. The other is called Piao Shaohai, Piao Ling'er is also surnamed Piao, presumably the two will have some connection.
"Yes, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess. ”
"Well, you let them in, and the main palace is waiting for them in the Flower Palace. ”
After a while, the next person took the two of them to the Flower Palace, and when Nangong Shan saw Nangong Yang, she couldn't help the excitement in her heart, and rushed over to hug Nangong Yang's body tightly, and couldn't say a word of excitement.
Nangong Yang's mood also became excited, she also hugged Nangong Shan, patted her head gently, and looked at her with a smile.
"Sister, Shanshan misses you so much, I haven't seen you for so long, and I'm very worried about you. Shanshan finally spoke, her eyes filled with tears.
"Silly girl, my sister is also worried about you, but now that everyone is fine, don't cry, come and sit down, my sister hasn't seen you for a long time, let my sister take a good look at you." Nangong Yang helped Shanshan to sit down next to the chair. I saw that Nangong Shan's appearance was becoming more and more delicate, her complexion was white and greasy, cute and generous. She wore a green brocade cloth jacket, which was very brightly colored, but under the light of her countenance, it looked colorless.
"I have a lot to tell you, sister. Nangong Shan's strong woman's spirit when she saw Nangong Yang suddenly disappeared, only the dependence and coquettishness of the delicate little sister when she saw the big sister.
"We'll have a good talk that night, and you'll be staying in my dormitory today. Nangong Yang nodded, looked up at Piao Shaohai again, and asked Nangong Xian: "Shanshan, may I ask who this son is so dignified, handsome, tall and slender?"
"Oh, he's a drifter, a good friend of Shanshan. Nangong Shan found out that she missed the introduction of Drifting Shaohai, so she was a little embarrassed.
"I have seen Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, who is drifting in the Shaohai Sea, and this trip is to escort Princess Nangong Shan to Tanguo. ”
"Oh, please sit down, Drifter. Nangong Yang's eyes stopped drifting on Shaohai's body for a long time, and he felt uncomfortable looking at Drifting Shaohai.
