Gu Qinghan thought that this was really childish talk, but he also thought that Yang Ning didn't know much about Jiangling, so it was no wonder that he had such doubts.
The influence of the Jinyi Marquis Qi family in Jiangling can only be truly felt when you are there. The Qi family is deeply rooted in Jiangling. In addition, as the hereditary marquis of Dachu, the influence here is unparalleled. When it comes to Jiangling, everyone The first thing that comes to mind is Jin Yihou.
Although Jin Yihou did not create cliques in the court, everyone knew that the land of Jiangling was the home of the Qi family. If he was an official in Jiangling, he would not be able to survive without the support of the Qi family.
Although the old residence of the Qi family is not in Jingzhou City, the status of the general manager of the old residence will never be lost to anyone in Jiangling. Even the prefect of Jiangling, for the sake of Marquis Jinyi, would not dare not to give face to the general manager of the old residence. , as Jin Yihou's agent in Jiangling, it was hard for Gu Qinghan to imagine that anyone would dare to coerce the general manager.
"Ning'er, are you too worried?" Gu Qinghan pondered for a moment before saying, "When you see the chief manager, many things will be solved."
"Sanniang, it's not that I'm suspicious." Yang Ning sighed softly: "In the past few days, things that have happened to the Jinyihou Mansion have become more and more strange. In this situation, we have to be cautious."
Seeing Yang Ning's serious and mature look, Gu Qinghan laughed and said, "Are you saying that Sanniang is easily deceived?"
"Sanniang is extremely smart, who can deceive you?" Yang Ning also smiled and said: "I just think that when some things change, people will change."
"Then what do you think we should do?" Seeing Yang Ning thinking deeply, Gu Qinghan was very interested.
Yang Ning said: "Sanniang, for so many years, you have been living in the capital, and your father is away at war. Jiangling has been handed over to the general manager. I'm afraid you don't know much about Jiangling."
Gu Qinghan nodded slightly: "That's true, I haven't been back for many years." His eyes turned slightly, thoughtfully.
"I think it is better to go to the old house directly now than to disguise myself and visit privately." Yang Ning finally said: "First go and find out whether the people in the city have paid taxes and find out the situation here. When the time comes, we will arrive at the old house. Only then will we be able to do it easily, otherwise even if we go to the old house now, our eyes will be darkened and we can only listen to the chief manager in everything."
"Private visit incognito?" Gu Qinghan's beautiful eyes lit up, "You mean, let's pretend to be ordinary people and inquire about the situation first?"
"It's me, not us." Yang Ning corrected. Seeing that Gu Qinghan was a little excited, she couldn't help but ask: "Sanniang, don't you also want to disguise yourself?"
Gu Qinghan smiled sweetly and asked, "Isn't it possible?"
"Of course not." Yang Ning immediately shook his head and said: "You are a woman. If you really want to visit incognito, you will have to travel and work hard. It's not a joke...!" Suddenly, he felt a pair of Gu Qinghan's eyes staring directly at him, and glanced at him, Seeing a hint of anger in Gu Qinghan's beautiful eyes, Gu Qinghan was not polite this time. He stretched out his slender jade fingers and pinched Yang Ning's ears. He deliberately said with a cold face: "What did you say? Repeat what you said? Give you some color." You just want to open a dyeing workshop, do you have the final say here or do I?"
Yang Ning saw her eyebrows raised with a look of sullenness. What kind of person was he? How could he not tell that this was Gu Qinghan pretending to be angry? The appearance of this beautiful young woman did not have the slightest sense of evil, but seemed strange. Yang Ning felt so charming, but she just smiled bitterly and said, "Of course Sanniang has the final say, oh, let go, your ears will be pinched off."
Only then did Gu Qinghan let go, glared at Yang Ning, and then smiled charmingly, "It's good to know. You have a good idea. Find out the situation here first, so that you can ask questions when you meet the chief manager. You are so bold." , if I am not watching you, who knows what trouble you will cause."
"Sanniang is not worried that I will cause trouble." Yang Ning rubbed her ears deliberately, "You finally came back and wanted to take a look around."
Gu Qinghan was startled, his expression suddenly became gloomy, and he said softly: "I don't know when and what month I will be able to come back to my hometown this time. Maybe... I will never come back again."
Yang Ning frowned, knowing in her heart that Gu Qinghan might have been worried about the future of Jinyihou Mansion.
The Jinyihou Mansion is now in a state of decline. Although in the eyes of everyone in the house, it is a gratifying event that the Crown Prince has suddenly become shrewd, he is still young after all, and his foundation in the government and the public is very shallow. Compared with the great achievements of the previous two generations of Jinyihou, Today's prince is completely different from them.
Yang Ning knew that everyone, including Gu Qinghan, doubted that the new generation of Jin Yihou could support a huge family.
Gu Qinghan was from a wealthy family, and of course she had seen the ups and downs of countless wealthy nobles. Perhaps in her heart, she had already prepared for the worst.
Gu Qinghan's expression was gloomy, and there was even a hint of sadness between his eyebrows. I felt pity for him. Yang Ning couldn't help but stretched out his hand to hold Gu Qinghan's soft skin and said softly: "Sanniang, don't worry. If you want to come back in the future, I will come back at any time. I I will protect you well by your side."
When Gu Qinghan heard this, he smiled sweetly, and calmly took out the catkins from Yang Ning's hand. Pretending to cover up, he raised his hand to lick the green hair on his cheek, showing a womanly appearance that was very touching.
Since Gu Qinghan wanted to have a private visit with him incognito, Yang Ning couldn't refuse anymore, so she discussed it in a low voice with Gu Qinghan. The clothes on Gu Qinghan's body made it look like a noble woman. It was impossible to go out like this without wanting to be stared at. Since It was a private visit incognito, so naturally he had to dress up in disguise to hide his true identity.
Gu Qinghan originally wanted to disguise himself as an ordinary female family member, but Yang Ning had an idea and suggested that Gu Qinghan simply disguise herself as a man, so that she would not attract anyone's attention.
Gu Qinghan was very interested in Yang Ning's suggestion. The discussion was settled. He was not in a hurry to go to his old house. He entered Jingzhou City first and found a relatively remote inn. Then Yang Ning asked Qi Feng to buy two sets of clothes. Qi Feng didn't know what kind of medicine the prince bought in the gourd, so he could only follow the order.
Following Yang Ning's instructions, Qi Feng bought back two sets of very ordinary men's clothes, and Yang Ning immediately changed into them. Seeing Yang Ning's behavior, Qi Feng couldn't help but ask: "Master, are you going shopping?" He just thought that Yang Ning didn't want to be too ostentatious, so she changed into her shirt and walked around Jingzhou City.
Yang Ning didn't hesitate and simply said: "Qi Feng, you guys will rest in the city for the night and then rush to the old house tomorrow night. If we don't arrive, just wait over there. Remember, don't do it here. stir up trouble."
Qi Feng was a little confused, "Master, are you going to leave us separately?"
"Don't make it public." Yang Ning said softly: "Sanniang and I are going to visit a friend. We don't want anyone to know. We will rush to the old house to meet you tomorrow night."
"Friends?" Qi Feng thought to himself, Prince, have you ever been to Jiangling? Do you have any friends here? Could it be that the third lady is going to meet someone? When Yang Ning said this, he did not dare to ask any more questions. He could only say: "Master, I will accompany you to take care of you."
The Crown Prince has been either kidnapped or assassinated recently. Qi Feng and the guards are both blaming themselves and feeling annoyed. He is accompanying the Crown Prince this time. If the Crown Prince makes any mistakes again, Duan Canghai may really twist his head and use it as a chamber pot.
Yang Ning knew that if it was just two people with Gu Qinghan, it wouldn't attract too much attention, but if there were more people, it wouldn't be good. In addition, this place is not very far from the old house in Qijiazhuang, so he disguised himself to inquire nearby. Ichiban, there shouldn't be any problems, and he is quite confident in his own skills. He doesn't take ordinary ruffians in his eyes at all.
Before Yang Ning could speak, he only heard a knock on the door. Qi Feng immediately became alert and asked in a deep voice, "Who is it?"
There was no sound outside, and the knock on the door was still there. Qi Feng glanced at Yang Ning and slowly approached, thinking to himself that it was still a clear day and the sky was bright. There were some guests in this inn, so no one would dare to harm the prince here. Even so, But he was still wary and opened the door suddenly, only to see a man standing outside the door. He frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
But the man swaggered into the house with his hands behind his back. Qi Feng was about to reach out and grab him, but Yang Ning had already laughed and said: "Qi Feng, you loser, can't you tell who he is?"
Qi Feng took a closer look and said in surprise: "Three...!"
The man burst out laughing and glanced at Qi Feng, feeling quite proud: "Did you really not see it or were you just pretending?"
This man was of course played by Gu Qinghan. Although he was dressed in ordinary clothes, he had handsome features and was extremely handsome.
"Ning'er, what do you think?" Gu Qinghan deliberately lowered his voice: "Can't you tell?"
Yang Ning sighed and said: "Qi Feng is just blind. Sanniang, you are like this. Just one more look and you know you are a woman?"
"Ah?" Gu Qinghan asked anxiously: "Why do you say that? What's wrong with me?"
Yang Ning didn't say anything, but just focused his eyes on Gu Qinghan's chest. Gu Qinghan followed his gaze and found that he had plump breasts. Seeing that Yang Ning's eyes were still staring at her chest, she glared at Yang Ning fiercely. She felt her face was burning, turned around and ran out in panic.
When the two of them left the city, the sun had not yet set and the sky was still setting in the west. The two horses were walking together. Yang Ning asked: "Sanniang, you are more familiar with this place than me. Where should we go first?"
"As far as I know, there is a village to the west of Jingzhou City, which is also a fiefdom of the Hou Mansion. Let's go there first and have a look." Gu Qinghan raised his head and looked at the sky, "It's still early in the sky, and the people here are simple. Let's talk tonight Maybe we can stay there for the night.”
"Okay!" Yang Ning said with a smile: "I will obey Sanniang's command in everything." However, his eyes couldn't help but move down and swept across Gu Qinghan's chest. At this time, it was no longer possible to see Gu Qinghan's breasts, but the whole person looked really similar. A handsome man, Yang Ning couldn't help but murmur in her heart: "How did she make it disappear? Could it be that she used a belt to strangle her? But with such a plump breast, wouldn't it be uncomfortable to really use a belt to strangle her?"
