Chapter 525: Erlao digs a pit
Chapter 525 The Second Elder Digging a Pit
In the evening, Chu Nanzhi had a good night's sleep, and when she woke up, she felt refreshed, and her body was no longer as limp as before.
Looking up, he found that the little white face was staring at him blankly, holding a cattail fan in his hand and fanning it casually over him.
Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but feel a shudder in his heart, no wonder his back felt chilly in his sleep.
"Did you have another nightmare, why did you sleep profusely with sweat?"
Lin Jinxiao asked suspiciously with a worried face.
"No."
Chu Nanzhi shook her head blankly, she had no impression at all.
If you have to say something in your dream, it can only be Chunmeng Wuhen.
Dreams are all about being with the little boy.
She sat up unhurriedly, and Lin Jinxiao also twisted her somewhat sore arms, pointed to the basin beside the dressing table, and said softly: "Hurry up and go to the school, the second elder told you to go, early After learning some etiquette, have dinner."
After finishing speaking, he immediately added: "Looking at you recently, you are very tired. Today I will personally cook some delicious dishes for you to reward you."
The majestic governor, the prince of the imperial court, was about to be trained as a house cook by himself. Chu Nanzhi was very sorry, and persuaded: "You are busy with official duties all day, so you don't need to do these trivial things. If you are not used to cooks For the meals, let mother cook, or let the restaurant send some over."
"Well, today is a very special day. Naturally, I have to prepare meals for my husband."
Lin Jinxiao smiled mysteriously.
"Special day?"
Chu Nanzhi thought about it in her mind, except for the inn, there seemed to be nothing special.
I couldn't help but blush for a while.
Lin Jinxiao said again: "I wrote down all the dishes you cooked at the restaurant yesterday. Today I cook them, and you may be satisfied with them."
"Have you learned how to cook so many dishes?"
Chu Nanzhi looked surprised.
Yesterday, he just stayed with him in the small courtyard of the restaurant for a while, and he learned everything.
If he is not his husband, it is not Tang Yuanxi who should be on guard in this family, but this little boy.
Lin Jinxiao tidied up her makeup, sent her out the door with half-pushing, and said with a warm smile, "You will know when you come back from the school."
Chu Nanzhi wanted to ask a few more words, but saw four little guys walking over from the living room.
Erbao Lin Ruixi saw that her mother was going to the school, so she couldn't help saying happily, "Mother, you have to follow Grandpa Chang and Grandpa Nie to class, otherwise Grandpa Chang will spank his **** when he is unhappy."
Chu Nanzhi was amused by his serious look.
Hurrying to see the second elder, Chu Nanzhi didn't have time to tease the little ones, so she could only obediently replied: "Mother doesn't do well in class, often grandpa will spank her buttocks, then you have to study and practice calligraphy with daddy, you can't Slack off."
"Okay, A Niang, you can go quickly, Grandpa Chang and Grandpa Nie are still waiting."
The little ones urged in unison.
Chu Nanzhi nodded, striding towards the school.
The Shushu is closely connected to the side room. Due to the small location, the building is not spacious, but the environment is quite elegant.
As soon as I entered the Shushu, I smelled a strong scent of sweet-scented osmanthus.
Chang Lao and Nie Lao strolled in the courtyard, watching the pleasant scenery all around while pacing, talking:
"The autumn rain this year came at the right time. I hope that the seeds sown by the people will have a good harvest."
"There should be no more major troubles."
On the contrary, Nie Huai'an was worried about the female protégé entering Beijing in the near future: "I only hope that Nan Zhi's mother and son can return to Luyan Port before the New Year's Eve. It’s about being together.”
Chang Yanjue sighed deeply: "I'm afraid the Empress Dowager has other arrangements."
"Fortunately, with you and I going to Beijing together, Nan Zhi's mother and son can't bear too much grievance."
Nie Huai'an stretched his brows with a light smile.
Seeing Chu Nanzhi approaching, the two elders immediately stopped the conversation, sat down one after another, looked at her with a smile and signaled: "Sit down quickly."
Chu Nanzhi looked around and saw that there was no one there, so she sat down obediently.
"Nan Zhi, when it comes to etiquette in front of the palace, I can see from your observations these days from your handling of the case that although you have lived in the village for a long time, you have always been polite. For this reason, you and Mr. Chang will not feel worried when you enter the palace and take the exam as a teacher."
Nie Huai'an flicked his sleeves, picked up the teacup from the table, and said slowly: "But today we asked you to come alone because we have other things to entrust."
"Something else?"
Chu Nanzhi pretended to be puzzled, and asked blankly: "The student is just a girl, I wonder if there is anything that can be entrusted by the two mentors?"
"It's a long story."
Nie Huai'an looked at Chang Yanjue with a smile: "Let's talk about it with the girl."
"It's okay, Nan Zhi is not an outsider, she is Princess Pingning now, and she is one body with Xiao'er, sharing weal and woe, Mr. Nie said it's okay, there is nothing to hide from her."
Chang Yanjue didn't want to mention this matter personally, and only let Nie Huai'an talk about it.
After all, the old incident was a scar in his heart.
Nie Huai'an nodded solemnly, and first asked: "Nan Zhi, since the tax and bank case, have you ever doubted Jin Xiao's rapid promotion?"
"There are doubts."
Chu Nanzhi smiled and said: "However, my humble husband is the favorite student of the second elder, with excellent character and learning. It is not uncommon to rely on the blessing of the second elder to be in a high position within a few months."
After a pause, she continued with a big grin and said with a light smile: "Besides, the situation in the east and south is tense now, and the imperial court needs to reactivate the children of the Luyan Port clan and entrust the poor husband with a heavy responsibility. said."
"That's all?"
Nie Huaian looked at her in disbelief.
"Well, that's all."
Chu Nanzhi nodded.
"That's just a prevarication to perfuse your husband."
Chang Yanjue felt that she was lying. He always felt that this girl had already noticed something, otherwise why would Yin Erlang help purchase war horses just after becoming a princess, and asked Erlang about the situation in Beijing from time to time.
A foreign prince and concubine is more concerned about the situation in Beijing than his husband. Either he likes gossip too much, or he has some unreasonable thoughts about Jingling City.
Obviously, this girl is not a person who likes to provoke right and wrong.
Squinting his eyes tightly, Chang Yanjue asked pointedly: "Nan Zhi, could it be that the tax bank case and Duanlongshan assassination, someone wanted to murder your husband, and you never had any doubts? He was just an old man at that time. The little official in Luyan Port has never had any enmity with anyone."
"This"
Chu Nanzhi frowned pretending to be embarrassed.
These two old men talk about things when they have something to do, and insist on questioning themselves and digging holes for themselves.
She couldn't confess Xie Jingchen, so she might cause trouble for herself.
