After the crown princess was reborn, she was overwhelmed with farming!

Chapter 118 Encounter (Part [-])
Hua Niang is quick-witted and slick, picking out some secrets that ordinary people don't know.

Nalanjing listened for more than an hour, and Hua Niang's mouth became dry, Nalanjing gave her 50 taels of silver, she licked her dry lips, poured a glass of wine, and started talking again.

What Huaniang knew were rumors, and the details of the facts need to be studied, but it could let Nalanjing know the general situation in Shangjing.

The current emperor of Southern Chu is Emperor Tianshun. He and Princess Nanwu have the same mother. Princess, and gave most of the power to the eldest princess, there is no other reason, because Emperor Tianshun's direct empress is the Liu family, and the Liu family has monopolized the court for many years, and has always been feared by the former emperor.

Emperor Tianshun ascended the throne when he was young, and his health has always been poor. The eldest princess did not dare to delegate power.

In the whole of Shangjing, it is no exaggeration to say that the Liu family is the most powerful family besides the Southern Chu royal family.

Under Nalanjing's special guidance, Hua Niang also told an interesting story about the Duke Protector's Mansion.

The mansion of Duke Huguo was originally a military commander. Since the old man retired, the eldest son died young, and the position of Lord Duke fell to the second son. Unfortunately, this second son is a rich man who has never been on the battlefield. Military merit, the little military power left in the Duke's Mansion was completely divided up.

The life of Duke Huguo's mansion was not easy, but the Duke of the State was not clear-headed and wanted to please a branch of the Liu family.

This side of the Liu family had a few glasses of wine and couldn't even see the road clearly. After opening the window, he climbed out and fell to his death.

Grandpa Li Guo was at the scene at the time, and he always thought he was playing around, but he didn't let anyone stop him. He didn't react until he jumped down.

Although it is a branch of the Liu family, it is also the Liu family. How can the Duke Huguo's mansion stand up to the trouble there? This matter has been stalemate for nearly half a year now. Bian just didn't nod, and the government didn't close the case. The soldiers and horses of Jiucheng would invite Mr. Li Guogong to drink tea every two days.

The Duke Huguo's mansion was miserable, and the side branch of Liu's family was miserable all day long. This matter has always been the topic of conversation among the people in Shangjing after dinner.

For a moment, Nalanjing didn't know which of the two should be said to be more unlucky.

But this can also show the status of the Liu family in Shangjing.

—

Li Jiaheng repeatedly urged them to return to Shangjing, and they must send news to the Duke Protector's Mansion as soon as possible, and they will come to the gate of the city to meet them.

In fact, even without the house arranged by Lin Xi, Nalanjing and the others had no plans to live in the Duke Protector's Mansion.

By the time the Protector's Mansion knew that they had entered the city, it was already three days later.

As for how he knew, it was because the third and fourth wives met Nalan Jing by chance.

After Nalanjing returned to Shangjing, he thought of Su Shiqin and his brothers, so he asked people in the mansion to deliver a letter to Su's mansion, inviting them to meet at the famous Xianyijing Teahouse in Shangjing.

After Su Shiqin got the letter, he didn't even wait for his elder brother who was away, changed his clothes, and came out in a carriage.

As soon as Nalanjing and Rong Yu arrived at the door of the teahouse, they saw Su Shiqin coming down from the carriage.

Su Shiqin has grown a lot. He is no longer the young man with red lips and white teeth. He has a more heroic look, his eyes are sharp and menacing, and even his voice has changed a little.

"Sister!" Seeing Nalan Jing, Su Shiqin jumped out of the carriage, took a few steps to Nalan Jing, almost couldn't help but grabbed her cuff and shook it slowly.

He looked at Rong Yu at the side again, and said naturally: "Second Uncle."

Rong Yu: "..." Can he refuse?
The three entered the teahouse, and happened to meet the third and fourth wives who had just entered the teahouse.

They came out on business, stopped by to buy a few baskets of dim sum and went back. When they saw Nalan Jing, they thought they had made a mistake. After confirming that it was her, they couldn't help but frowned.

They were waiting for Nalan Jing to take the initiative to greet them, after all, she was a junior.

Unexpectedly, Nalan Jing just nodded to them, and went up to the second floor, Rong Yu and Su Shiqin followed behind her, the three of them were talking and laughing.

The third lady's face darkened immediately: "What does she mean?"

The fourth lady stared wide-eyed and pointed at their backs, because she was so shocked that she couldn't hold back a word.

Seeing that she was silent, the third lady couldn't help but stretched out her hand and grabbed her: "I'm talking to you, she doesn't pay attention to our Duke Protector's House at all, do you really think that Rong Xuan is still the same Rong Xuan when he wakes up?" ? It is impossible for a dumb person to return to his post, and he has offended so many people, and he doesn’t know how much revenge is waiting for them, so why should he be self-righteous?”

The fourth lady looked at the person who entered the private room on the second floor, and finally choked out a sentence: "That's the second son of the Su family!"

"What did you say?" The third lady frowned, and said angrily, "The Su family?"

"It's the Su family, the only Su family in Shangjing that can compete with the Liu family." The fourth lady finished speaking in one breath, with shock still on her face.

"What did you say?" The third lady grabbed her arm and glanced left and right: "You said that is the second son of the Su family?"

The fourth lady pointed to Nalanjing's wing room: "The young man who was behind the eldest girl just now, I have seen him beside the old lady of the Su family, and I will definitely not admit my mistake."

The third lady was stunned, and the fourth lady also looked at her silently. No one thought that Nalanjing would have such a relationship with the Su family.

The fourth lady pulled out her arm: "Sister-in-law three, shall we go up?"

The third lady's face was a little ugly, she walked out the door, and said: "Go back first and tell the old man."

Nalanjing didn't know to meet them when he arrived in Shangjing, which made the Li family somewhat displeased, but after hearing that she had a close relationship with the second son of the Su family, his mind became active again.

The old man sent someone to find out where Nalan Jing lived, and asked her and Rong Xuan to go back to her mother's house.

Of course Narankin didn't know this.

She and Rong Yu met Su Shiqin and knew something about their return to Beijing.

Su Zhi was executed by Su Hou Ye himself, and this matter naturally needs to be explained to Su Lao Hou Ye and his wife. Although they regret the loss of their beloved son, they are not people who have no sense of the overall situation.

Su Shiqin was still young and was arranged to study in the Imperial College.

Su Shirong's situation was relatively difficult. After he came back, he passed the imperial examination and entered the top three. After that, he entered the Ministry of War and worked as a seventh-rank official.

This idle position is not as good as Wang Zhaoyi's Qipin county magistrate, and has no real power, but this position can only be won by his fame in the imperial examination and the face of a mighty marquis.

After all, at the beginning Rong Xuan was a third-rank official, and he had just entered the court as an official and got the official position of a seventh-rank official in the Ministry of Punishment after being personally witnessed by Emperor Tianshun.
