Chen Ningya hesitated for a moment, then said uncertainly: "If there is no accident, it should be Xiao Guang, the prince of Dingbei!"
"Prince Dingbei. What? Mother! Who are you talking about?" Wen Yuanjing felt dumbfounded as if struck by lightning.
"You child! What a hoot!" Chen Ningya pulled her down and said slowly, "Mother only found out last night that several sons of the late emperor died in the palace the day before yesterday. Only the disabled prince survived. Of course, he did not have the qualification to inherit the line. The remaining grandchildren were not the heirs of the emperor, and the descendants of the concubines were not considered. pick.
I still know a thing or two about Prince Li's temperament, and I also know that Prince Li is not expected to be an emperor. It is possible for the remaining Kings of Lingnan and King Dingbei. Now your cousin has left in a hurry, and Prince Dingbei is still in the capital. Obviously, the difference is nothing but an edict. Mother is fortunate now that our family has not offended Prince Dingbei, and even if he ascends the throne, it should not be too embarrassing for us! "
"Cocoa"
"There's nothing good about it!" Chen Ningya breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes turned and said, "Mother last night, I couldn't understand what Prince Dingbei did at this time! After thinking about it, your eldest brother is now Mo. Coach Bei, your ability is not bad. Your father is also there. Although your work is a little unreliable, you can keep one side safe. Prince Dingbei is the heart of our family!
And he also mentioned your cousin. Knowing the relationship between our family and the King of Lingnan, even if there is something in the back, it should not involve us. Now my mother's heart is stable, but I don't know where the King of Lingnan is. What do you think, when will my mother go to see your grandfather and grandmother! "
Wen Yuanjing was instantly persuaded, and nodded in agreement, "So mother, if Xiao Guang's enthronement will do us more good than harm?"
"It's natural!" Chen Ningya spit and mumbled, "At least we can go back to the city in peace now."
Speaking of returning to the city, Chen Ningya remembered the money that Anweiyi sent back. Because of the lack of light, she has quickly let people buy it into a property after Wen Youcheng was replaced by golden leaves. Three more houses were added in the city, nine There are a lot of shops, and I bought three additional Zhuangzi outside the city. In addition, Shangzhou and Shangdu, which are relatively close to the capital, have also bought many Zhuangzi shops. Now the family’s monthly surplus has reached more than 30. Ten thousand liang, even if the whole family does nothing, they can live comfortably for several generations by guarding these industries.
Just as Chen Ningya was thinking, Wen Yuanjing asked cautiously, "Mother, do we really want to go back?"
"What? Can't bear it?" Chen Ningya came back to her senses and looked at her amusingly.
Wen Yuanjing shook her head. She didn't know why she was feeling gloomy. It seemed that hearing Xiao Guang was about to ascend the throne didn't make her very happy. Could it be because she rarely recognized a friend who was about to become unattainable. Lost?
Wen Yuanjing couldn't understand, shook his head and waved away the mixed thoughts in his mind.
Hearing Chen Ningya sigh, "I originally wanted you and your mother to go to Lingnan and have your wedding ceremony at your grandfather and grandmother's side, but now I don't know if I can get it."
Wen Yuanjing did not say anything.
The next day, Chen Ningya sent a message to the Feng family, Qi family, Xue family, and told them about their return to the city. Except for the Feng family, the other two could not wait to return to the city immediately, and immediately responded to Chen Ningya's trip.
As soon as he said it, he left. The next day, the three families set off early in the morning and returned to the house in the capital with a bunch of luggage and servants.
The carriage was stopped at the gate of the city as soon as it entered the city. The soldiers of the Qianji Battalion who were in charge of the inspection had a solemn face. As a routine, they carefully searched the carriage and all the luggage.
waved his hand impatiently and shouted, "Hurry up!"
The coachman nodded flatteringly and bowed, and was about to lower the curtain of the carriage when Zheng Ying rode towards him, his eyes stopped on the carriage, and he stepped forward and clasped his fists in greeting: "Is Mrs. Wen in the car?"
Chen Ningya lifted the curtain of the car again and looked at the person who came in doubt.
Zheng Ying introduced himself: "Zheng Ying, commander of Wu Jiying, an old acquaintance of Marshal Wen."
Chen Ningya suddenly realized that she motioned the coachman to pull the carriage aside to speak.
The soldiers who had just spoken sternly to Chen Ningya and her party turned pale with fright, and looked at them secretly. From the carriage to the people, they were all ordinary, and they couldn't tell the depth, but the bag on the driver's waist was embroidered with a large size. the word "warm", Wen? Marshal Wen? Could it be that the other party is the family of Marshal Wen?
This thought flashed through his mind, and the soldier was so frightened that his legs were shaking, and he continued to investigate absentmindedly, but he was listening to the movement over there with one ear erect. In case Mrs. Wen sued him in front of Commander Zheng Now, his errand is over!
Over there, Chen Ningya got off the carriage, returned a salute, and asked in a low voice, "Commander Zheng has something to say?"
Zheng Ying frowned and nodded solemnly, "There is indeed something, presumably the old lady already knew about the changes in the Qianqiu Banquet Palace of the late emperor. At that time, the demon concubine was killed, but the nephew next to her escaped with the fifth prince's son-in-law. Now, they are the remnants of the previous dynasty and cannot be left behind. Otherwise, it is very likely that they will make a comeback, and the Empress will be ordered to arrest them. However, after so many days, there is no progress at all.
There is another point, I suspect that the poisoning of the Seventh Prince is related to them. Now that the mob is the only survivor left, I need to find her and ask some things clearly. I know that Mrs. Wen has some relationship with Mrs. Ye, so I wanted to ask the old lady if she could give some clues. "
Chen Ningya was both surprised and surprised, "How did she escape? I heard that even a mosquito couldn't fly out of the Chengqing Palace that day. How could such a big living person escape?"
Zheng Ying shook his head and explained: "That day, the demon concubine didn't bring Ye Ma to the Chengqing Palace, and when the matter was settled and we went to catch the people, they had already run away, and I didn't know whether to escape from the palace or hide somewhere, on the official road. They also sent people to chase, and the target spread to fifty miles outside the capital, but nothing was found.”
Chen Ningya fell into deep thought and murmured: "How far can she walk as an old man with a child? Even if she runs, it is impossible to run 50 miles to the outskirts of the country. Think about what other places in the capital have not been searched? Uninhabited. The house, or a place where the three religions and nine streams are mixed, or it is "
Chen Ningya suddenly widened her eyes, "Have we searched our house?"
"What?" Zheng Ying's eyes widened. After thinking of this possibility, he quickly turned around and gathered his troops to run to the four houses of Wen, Feng, Xue, and Qi.
Cursed while running, "Damn, why didn't you think of it!"
