Bai Yuegang of Prince Ning's Mansion

Chapter 237 Contact
The courtyard was a little deserted, and the visitors were all guided by the servants of the palace.

A young father-in-law led several people to the deeper courtyard of the post house.

Between the various courtyards, there are well-equipped guards patrolling from time to time.

Presumably, the incident with the assassins was too much a while ago, which symbolically strengthened the defense.

The father-in-law was very polite, walking in front with his head bowed, introducing Ruixue the layout of the posthouse from time to time.

"The special envoy of Bishui is a distinguished guest. In order to welcome them, the Holy One specially set up a place and built a new venue. For the convenience of discussing matters, he also opened the back door, which leads directly to the court hall. The main entrance of the Li post house is far away, and the nobles are troubled. "

Ruixue nodded her thanks: "It's okay, father-in-law has worked hard."

After walking for about half a stick of incense, I saw a big red courtyard wall that was a bit higher than the other courtyards of the post house.

The brand-new vermilion gate was inlaid with brass rivets, and in front of the gate stood two white stone swallowing gold beasts of different shapes.

It is just a place where a special envoy of a country lives temporarily, and it is built in such a luxurious style.

It is enough to see how much the Holy Majesty cares about the diplomatic relations and trade between the two countries this time.

It's no wonder that he attaches so much importance to it. When Li Jiuchen and Song Shimiao exchanged information last time, Ruixue was also fortunate to learn about Dalan's current financial situation.

There are many Dalan clans, monopolizing many assets and land.

For an ordinary person, if he wanted to change his family, it would be as difficult as going to heaven.

The ascending channel is monopolized by the upper clans, the rich are getting richer, the poor are getting poorer, and the class solidification is extremely serious.

Even for the Holy One, it is not so easy to reap some benefits from those aristocratic families.

The aristocratic families are also married to each other, and the relationship is so intricate that even if the Holy One is stubborn, it is impossible to rectify it.

Besides, I'm afraid he doesn't have that kind of courage. For him, it is not easy to stabilize the situation now.

He can only start from the outside, rectify the military and government on the border, first concentrate the military power in his own hands, and find ways to expand the territory to stabilize his regime.

Accumulating money wantonly is the basis of his plans, if he has no money in hand, all these plans will not come true.

Therefore, this business relationship with Bishui is extremely important to the Holy Majesty.

Even if the dispute with Beique is temporarily put aside, the matter must be finalized as soon as possible.

The father-in-law stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after a while, someone answered the door.

The door was only opened a crack, and a middle-aged man in clear water uniform stood in front of the door.

He looked at his father-in-law first, and then at Ruixue and Song Shimiao who were standing at the bottom of the steps.

The tone was a bit complaining: "What's the matter? Didn't I tell you that we didn't see any guests during our husband's visit?"

With a smile on his face, the father-in-law bent even lower.

"Special envoy, don't be surprised. This is the mistress of Prince Ning's mansion. She is only here today to visit relatives. Please pass on a message. If you really don't see her, the servant can send Princess Ning back."

The middle-aged man's eyes brightened, he looked at Ruixue a few more times, and his tone improved a lot.

Said: "Please wait a moment, I will go to inform the gentleman."

Leaving the door open, he hurriedly ran towards the courtyard.

The father-in-law bowed to Ruixue slightly apologetically.

"Don't blame the nobleman, the special envoy of Bishui is a bit difficult to serve."

Ruixue couldn't help but look at the father-in-law more, this servant has some qualities of treating people and things.

It's quite good, no wonder I can work in a place that receives foreign guests.

Since entering the post house, Song Shimiao has been unusually quiet, hiding his usual laziness and cynicalism, and seems to be thinking about it.

But after a while, there was movement in the courtyard.

Li Jiuchen was obviously a little excited, he heard his voice before seeing him.

"Did my cousin come to see me? I've been busy recently, so you don't have to go back to make you worry."

After the words fell, the person also came in front of Ruixue, seeing Song Shimiao following behind Ruixue, and immediately changed his face.

"Yo, this guest is so familiar."

Song Shimiao smiled but said nothing, and cupped his hands at Li Jiuchen.

Ruixue couldn't understand, didn't these two people have a good time before, they hooked up shoulder to shoulder and called each other brothers.

How did you make a sale and pretend not to know it?

This time Ruixue came here to ask for help, so she couldn't be cold-hearted to Li Jiuchen anymore.

"If you don't go back, I'm really worried. Why don't you go in and tell me, it's cold outside."

Li Jiuchen coughed lightly, and said please hurry up, but he didn't move his footsteps.

The vermilion gate behind him was also closed when he came out.

Ruixue frowned, is there something shameful in this courtyard?

Anyway, after Li Jiuchen said please hurry up, he simply passed him and walked to the door, but was stopped by Li Jiuchen intentionally or unintentionally.

He felt that things were weird, as soon as he passed him, the gate of the courtyard was opened.

Ruixue glanced away, and saw a piece of clothing flashing past the corner, and those boots looked very familiar.

Now in someone else's place, it's not easy for Ruixue to follow up and investigate, but she is a little more cautious.

The Clear Water Mission really didn't come here to do business seriously.

Why do you always do these confusing and sneaky things.

Li Ningjue was dressed in Tsing Yi, standing in front of the door with his hands behind his back, followed by four or five special envoys of Bishui.

The battle was quite big, and I don't know whether they came out to welcome Ruixue, or wanted to give her a blow.

On the day of the palace banquet, Ruixue only saw him once from a distance, so she wasn't sure what attitude this uncle had towards her.

If he said he didn't care at all, he specially asked Li Jiuchen to come in contact with him, pointing out his blood relationship with him.

If he cared, since he came to Dalan, he never mentioned his willingness to formally contact him.

Ruixue was not sure for a while, how to approach this elder with Mr. He's attitude.

Thinking that he came to beg for help, he adjusted his posture.

Step forward and bow down to worship.

It stands to reason that Ruixue, as Concubine Ning, actually did not need this obeisance.

But who asked her to ask someone to do something, first pull in the distance, and then talk later, right?

Just about to call uncle.

Li Ningjue strode in front of Ruixue, raised her hands, and pulled her up.

I was a little excited when I saw it, and my already kind and rich face looked extraordinarily kind.

"Good boy, good boy, there is no need for these customary etiquettes. Uncle is really happy that you can come. Go in and talk, let's go in and talk."

Hualuo pulled Ruixue and walked into the house.

Song Shimiao wanted to follow, but was held back by Li Jiuchen.

Song Shimiao narrowed his fox eyes, raised his hand and poked Li Jiuchen's elbow lightly, then broke free, and entered the room with Ruixue.

Li Jiuchen gave a dry laugh, turned around and walked towards the back of the house.

Push the door open and enter the house, speaking to the person sitting in the dark.

"You will tell her sooner or later, why hide?"

"I haven't made up my mind yet. I don't want to let my sister know now. There are still some days. After I make a decision, I will discuss it with her."

Li Jiuchen shook his head: "Auntie's last wish is for you to return to Bishui safely, now that everything is in place, you don't have any hesitation."
