The next morning, after Ning Jing woke up, the first thing she did was to serve her daughter-in-law, and then hurriedly called Xue Qian to ask him about the follow-up of Taishi's residence last night.

Xue Qian knew that their master Ning would definitely want to know the follow-up of last night, so he directly told what he learned later. If he didn't know, he had to inquire, and then what happened last night was passed on one after another. .

After hearing this, the people who stood shoulder to shoulder with the palace sighed unceasingly, and then Mu Qingcang said: "Growth will decline after a long time, you all remember it for me, if anyone dares to do something that violates the king's law, don't blame me for military punishment. And remember that people in our family don't take concubines, don't fight against each other, brothers are of one mind, and their profits cut through gold."

All the sons of the Mu family stood up, bowed and clasped their fists together: "It's the father, I dare not forget the ancestral precepts."

Mu Qingcang nodded, motioned for them to sit down, and then said to Mu Xingchen and his wife, "Let's set off as soon as possible. As for Ning Jing, forget about your imperial examination. Don't say that you have been busy with those messy things recently. Well, let’s wait for the old General Ning from Beixun to come back, if not, let’s just advance to the rank of military officer.”

Ning Jing thought for a while: "Since my father said this today, I will also tell you about my decision in the past few days. I will not take the exam this year. Xiaochen's health is not good. I will accompany him for a year. New Year's Eve Besides, it’s not something to worry about anyway. I don’t have any land in Zhaojia Village, and I didn’t take the exam to avoid paying taxes. I still have time. People talk nonsense, let’s talk about it after the Chinese New Year, what do you think?”

"You should have thought this way a long time ago. Really, we have wanted to talk for a long time, but we just don't want to discourage you. Xiaochen spoils you again, so we didn't say anything." Tang Jinyu agreed happily when she heard this his words.

"You are a person who knows how to make progress, so let's do it this way. It's a pity. If you pass the exam this year, you might be able to take the Juren exam during the Chinese New Year." Mu Qingcang sighed.

"It doesn't matter to me, as long as Xiaochen doesn't dislike me as a child, and there is no room in the house, and there is no row of land." After speaking, he looked at Mu Xingchen and smiled.

Everyone in the room glanced at Ning Jing, and then laughed, especially the side-by-side king laughed loudly, and then said: "Since you won't take the imperial examination, do you have to talk about something serious?"

When Ning Jing heard this, a golden bell rang in his heart immediately, and then asked cautiously: "What do you want to ask?"

The masters and the others glanced at each other, and then said: "Hey, what is that thing you found in the water yesterday?"

Ning Jing rolled his eyes helplessly, knowing that as long as that thing is alive, there will be such a day, so he said: "That's gasoline..."

-

As for Taishi Mansion, it is also embarrassing. It turned out that the lake in Taishi Mansion was on fire for no apparent reason last night, and the servants of Taishi Mansion were so scared that they all trembled. This was done by Taishi Mansion. What kind of bad thing that angers people and complains, was warned like this.

Then there were those, the timid servants whispering on the side: "Did that person jump into the lake the night before and angered God? This is God's punishment for their Grand Master's Mansion?"

The grand master was also taken aback by this sudden incident, what's going on?Looked around: "Quickly put out the fire?"

The guard beside him opened his mouth and said, "Master, that's in the lake."

The grand master was stunned by what the guard said, and then realized that he had said something stupid, that was in the lake, and the lake was below, so what else could be saved?Do you need anything else to fight the fire?

Just like that, Taishi Wang saw his koi lake burnt so little that it was beyond recognition, and it was estimated that the fish below would not recover. He was so frightened that he passed out at that time, and then his step-husband hurriedly called I went to the imperial hospital to ask for an imperial doctor, but the old imperial doctor who came here was very good at medicine, but he had a bit of a broken mouth, and he just loved to talk. Every time he heard some gossip outside, he would tell his husband. Jia Fulang is a well-known big mouth in Beijing, don't let him know anything, as long as he knows, the whole capital will know it in the next day, today is no exception, it is said that the Grand Master's Mansion offended the heavens early this morning, and was punished. Scourge, the news of being warned by the fire spread throughout the capital, even the emperor and husband in the palace knew about it.

After hearing this, the emperor thought, what is this an early warning?He asked someone to investigate, but what he found made him want to kill Wang Taishi directly, so he went directly to the cold palace to meet the emperor's husband, and he had to tell him about some things?It's too outrageous, don't you care about human life?

When the emperor arrived at the cold palace, Wang Jing was having breakfast with the crown prince. It was very simple porridge and side dishes. The prince had an extra egg, while the emperor had a bowl of clear porridge. Ling Xinyu felt a pain in his heart when he saw it. This is the cold palace. Standard configuration: "Why do you do this?"

Wang Jing put down the clear porridge in his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine is setting an example for the Six Palaces. The emperor breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people, let alone me as the emperor's wife!"

Ling Xinyu really had nothing to do with this imperial husband, so he sighed: "I wronged you?"

"The subject is not wronged, but the prince is wronged. He is too young. I brought him here. Although it is to protect him, people outside don't think so..."

"Don't worry, it's just that another major event happened in the Grand Master's Mansion last night...?" Ling Xinyu was so angry that he gritted his teeth!

"What's the matter? It's all like this, why don't you stop?" Wang Jing is going crazy, okay, this is going to hell!

"Last night, the strange fire from the sky boiled in the koi lake of your house. The scene was shocking. Everyone thought that the fish in the lake would be burned to death in such a big fire, but it turned out to be a big fire this morning. Look, those koi are alive and well, and they are still out in the morning to ask for fish food?" Ling Xinyu also felt strange, he had never heard of this before.

"How could such a thing happen? Could it be that someone deliberately made trouble?" Wang Jing felt a little unbelievable.

"No, if it weren't for the warning from the sky, there would never be a flame in the running water. Even if the lamp oil fell into the water and tried to light it, it would not be lit. And after the fire was extinguished, there was no oil in the lake. Did you really see a ghost?" Just after he finished speaking, Ling Xinyu felt something was wrong, after all, he is the emperor, so it's better not to talk about these strange things, it would be bad if he frightened the prince.

Wang Jing thought for a while that the Wang family might be doomed, and sure enough, he heard Ling Xinyu say: "And it is said that Uncle Wang Guo's Ah Mo also died in this lake, and was pushed down..." Other words Ling Xinyu didn't say anything, but Wang Jing understood what he said. His imperial husband is a smart person, and he must have thought about how the concubine died!

When Wang Jing heard this, he didn't say a word, but just hugged the crown prince who had already eaten, and stroked his head. Ling Xinyu understood that this was for their father and son, and he didn't care about the grand master's residence. Nodding, his imperial husband is on the same front as him, and he will take care of the rest.

Wang Jing sent Ling Xinyu away and shook his head: "Son, for you, I would give up anything!"

The prince was too young to understand what the imperial husband said, but he remembered it. When he grew up and became more sensible, he understood what he said, but at that time he didn't say anything. The internal battles in the royal family are so cruel. It might be irreversible once, so I just put this memory in my heart and do what I should do.

Besides, when the emperor returned to the Imperial Study Room, he immediately issued an edict, vehemently reprimanding the Grand Master's House for committing crimes, disregarding human life, causing anger and resentment, and not worthy of the title of Grand Master at all.

When this imperial decree was sent to the Grand Master's Mansion, Grand Master Wang really vomited blood this time. I didn't expect that there would be such a day in their Grand Master's Mansion. Looking at the Chief Manager Chen who came to deliver the imperial decree, "What the hell is the Chief Manager Chen?" Huh? How did our Wang family come to this point, I want to see His Royal Highness, I want to see His Royal Highness, the Wang family is like this, why doesn't he come forward to take care of our Wang family?"

Chief Manager Chen heard such crazy behavior of Wang Taishi, and said: "Master Wang, His Royal Highness is in the cold palace now, there are some things that should not be said by this old slave. As the emperor's niece, the palace should have relieved the emperor's worries, but how do you What did you do? Not enterprising, arrogant, domineering, careless about human life, the emperor did not confiscate the whole palace, it is already a lenient, if Mr. Wang is not convinced, our family can go back to the palace to convey to His Majesty." Although the voice of the voice was not ups and downs , but everyone present felt a chill, cutting their flesh like a knife.

In the end, someone from the Ministry of Rites came to Taishi Mansion that day and took down the plaque written by His Majesty the Emperor, and the people who knelt on the ground at the gate of Taishi Mansion just watched with their own eyes. The Grand Master's Mansion, which felt infinitely beautiful, has since fallen.

And Ning Jing directly gave a cross comment, "30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi."

-

Three days later, early in the morning, the side door of the Prince's Mansion was opened wide, and a heavily guarded carriage came out of it, followed by several carriages full of goods.

The convoy left the city gate in a low-key manner, and then headed towards Zhaojia Village.

There are quite a few people who went to Zhaojia Village this time, besides Ning Jing and his wife, there were four members of Xiaocao's family who had just finished confinement, among them Zhang Dazhuang was the funniest. The guy who got it couldn’t take it away, so he got up in the middle of the night and hid those things in the carriage loaded with fodder. Later, the groom said to him, “Don’t hide it, take it with you if you want, the masters must You won't be allowed to bring your food."

Only then did Zhang Dazhuang come to his senses, scratching his head: "Hey, that's right!"

Seeing Zhang Dazhuang like this, the coachman shook his head helplessly, and then continued to load the horse feed.

Besides Ning Jing and Mu Xingchen, the two of them are sleeping in the carriage at this time. There is still a charcoal stove burning in the car, and hot water is still burning on it. Inlaid on the carriage, even if it is bumped, it will not be knocked over, and it will not be hot.

The convoy moved very fast, because it was a four-horse-drawn cart, so it was very fast. It arrived at the border of Qing County that afternoon. The group slept in the house in Qing County for one night, and ate early the next morning. After breakfast, he headed directly towards Zhaojia Village. Although he was in a hurry, he had to arrive as soon as possible, otherwise he was worried. After all, the road was not safe, and he was also afraid that Mu Xingchen might have an accident.

When they reached the boundary of Zhaojia Village, they found that the whole village, old and young, came out to greet them, among them, Village Chief Zhao led several village elders at the front of the team.

Both Ning Jing and Mu Xingchen got out of the car, greeted the village head and the villagers, and then asked someone to distribute the gifts brought in the capital to everyone. In addition to wine and meat, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, cloth was the candy for the children. , as well as pens, inks, papers and inkstones, things are not expensive, but they are all practical, and I said that after a few days they are repaired, they can teach the children to continue to read. After hearing this, the children clapped their hands happily, mouth Li thanked Tranquility.

After distributing all the things to everyone, Ning Jing and his wife bid farewell to everyone and prepared to go back to their own home. After walking for several months, he didn't know what his home was like now, so he had to go back and have a look.

When he got to his small courtyard, he found that the small courtyard was gone, and in front of him was a big courtyard. Looking at this courtyard, Ning Jing didn't realize it for a while, and pointed at Mu Xingchen: "This..."

"Why don't you recognize me? Go in and have a look, this is our house from now on!" Mu Xingchen led Ning Jing into the room after speaking.

It’s not about anything else, it’s just that the appearance of the big yard in front of him is very similar to his home in modern times, and even the door is the same red door with copper nails, which looks very dignified. People go through the main entrance, and vehicles and livestock pass through the side door.

After entering the yard and seeing the layout of the yard, Ping An's eyes lit up, and he asked him, "This is really like my home. How did you know it was built like this?"

Mu Xingchen smiled: "Didn't you draw a group photo of your family? The back is the layout of the yard, so I'll follow that, but I don't know if it's like this every time I enter, so I We have made some changes to the courtyards we entered, and installed earth dragons, so if it is burned, the house will be very warm."

Ning Jing nodded, "Then let's go in, but can all these people live? Will it be crowded?"

"It's okay, there are so many houses, each house has a kang, and you can live in it, so you don't need to take care of it." After finishing speaking, he called Xue Qian.

Xue Qian was busy unloading cars and goods with everyone, and when he heard Mu Xingchen calling him, he said, "From now on, you will be the housekeeper of our Ning family, and everything in this yard will be entrusted to you from now on."

Xue Qian was stunned for a moment, glanced at Ning Jing and nodded: "Yes, thank you master for your appreciation." After resigning, he worked harder with his subordinates. From today onwards, he is the most trustworthy person around Ning Jing, and he can follow Ning Jing Doing things is worthwhile in this life, even if it costs your life and wealth, it is no longer a problem.

The people who came with him were also very happy, which shows that they will be the closest people around Tranquility in the future. When they followed Tranquility in the past, they were afraid that he would dislike them for betraying Zhao Heita. Betrayal, now that Xue Qian has been promoted to the post of steward, it means that they are recognized by Ping An.

Ning Jing looked at them like this, took a look at Mu Xingchen and laughed, then visited the front and back yards, and found that they were all good, the three-in-one yard, even people from the capital city, could live there, even his backyard The chicken coops are all there, and there are more than a dozen pheasants inside. It seems that they have been fed well for a while, and all of them have bright coats. Maybe it's time to lay eggs?

Mu Xingchen was so happy to see him, and this smile was so real only in this area. Although he used to talk and laugh with his family members in the mansion, he understood Ning Jing, looked at him and smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. It's the same with the brothers-in-law at home. After all, he is a man, not a real brother, and he is more cautious in dealing with things. It is very good to be able to do this now. Although the family is new, but people Still those people, things are those things.

In the evening, I ate hot noodle soup made by Zhang Dazhuang. There are many people in the family, including more than 30 servants and guards, and I made several large pots. However, Zhang Dazhuang was also happy to see everyone eating happily. In this way, he likes to make food, and he is happy to see people eating what he makes.Brilliant white teeth!

Xiaocao looked at the silly father, then shook her head, and said to Ah Mo who was sitting on the side eating: "Ah Mo, look at how silly my father is smiling."

Mrs. Zhang is also Xiaocao's aunt. After hearing this, she smiled and said, "Eat it, your father is just like that."

Xiaocao nodded: "Well, yes, it's been like this since I can remember, it's hopeless!"

After Mrs. Zhang heard this, she couldn't hold back the corners of her mouth, and almost burst out laughing, "What are you talking about, you bastard, eat quickly, and serve the master after eating."

Xiaocao nodded, and ate in a hurry, and will have to bring bath water to the master in a while!

Ning Jing was talking to Mu Xingchen in the room. The earth dragon was burned in the room today, so the temperature was a bit low, but someone burned the kang yesterday, so it was not damp. Before they came back today, someone came to clean the room. The place was very neat and tidy, and the two of them were very satisfied.

Ning Jing asked Mu Xingchen while laying out the leather mattress, "Are you okay with them?"

Mu Xingchen put down the white water in his hand, and nodded: "Don't worry, it may be that I am stronger, so I haven't had much reaction, but you are used to sleeping." After finishing speaking, he pursed his lips and smiled up!

Ning Jing spread the quilt, then got off the floor, helped Mu Xingchen take off those thick coats, pulled him to sit down, opened the door and asked Xiaocao to bring the footwashing water, he wanted to wash his wife's feet!
