Yang Zhen hasn't let go. Those refugees are worried about her, and they don't dare to do anything. It turns out that they still want to occupy a well, but after being stopped by Ning Lang, those refugees don't dare to do any more.
Without him, just because this Ning Xiucai has a layer of identity, he is the person who worshipped heaven and earth by the leader of mountain bandits.
No matter how the refugees thought about it, they couldn't imagine that Mr. Yang was still a broken sleeve, and he even found a scholar who looked like a little white face. Due to this level of identity, it is now a critical moment to persuade Yang Zhen to join them, and these refugees dare not do anything.
I was afraid that if I accidentally overdid it and made this Ning Xiucai unhappy, when he turned back to blow the pillow wind, they and Yang Zhen cooperated.
This made Ning Lang very imposing.
He turned around in Qingzhou City, and wherever he went, no refugee dared to sing against him, and even if there were, he was quickly suppressed by the bandits behind Ning Lang.
Ning Lang couldn't be complacent.
And these days, Yang Zhen has also been in the cottage and never came out. The refugees went to the cottage several times to find her, but they were blocked by the bandits every time, and they couldn't even enter the cottage.
After a long time, a few refugees soon became unwilling.
Someone secretly said to the leader: "Boss, do you think this Mr. Yang is deliberately delaying time? It's been so many days, why haven't you answered yet?"
The leader pondered: "The Yang family are all loyal and patriotic people, although they met a faint-hearted monarch, but I can't be sure..."
"He is loyal and patriotic, but can he still be a bandit? Besides, you see, the people in Qingzhou listen to him like this, and they are all obediently disciplined by him. If he is really willing, how could he do such a thing? matter."
The leader couldn't help but fall into contemplation.
Soon, as if aware of his suspicion, Yang Zhen made a move.
She gave up the well.
When those refugees once again occupied the well next to the ruined temple, the bandits tried to rush up several times, especially Ning Lang. The dissatisfaction on his face almost turned into reality, but he just stared at these refugees. what to do.
The ownership of this well has completely become these refugees, and the people in Qingzhou can no longer draw water from here, and the residents living nearby have to detour to further places.
This obviously appeased the refugees, and the restless people who were still a little restless quickly calmed down and decided to wait a few more days.
And this time Yang Zhen gave in, which also gave those refugees hope. Soon, when Ning Lang went to stop those refugees from rioting again, even if there was a bandit standing behind him, someone unceremoniously refuted him. The face, and even beat him with a fist.
Ning Lang almost fainted.
He asked those mountain bandits to clean up the refugee for a meal, then rushed over to make up his fist, turned his head and rushed up the mountain very unmanly, and went to Yang Zhen to complain.
Soon, these refugees knew again...
That Ning Xiu is Mr. Yang's heart and soul, anyone can be touched, but Ning Xiucai cannot be touched. For a time, all the refugees were in danger. When they saw Ning Lang, they were even more afraid that he would cause trouble for them. As soon as they saw Ning Lang, they walked against the corner of the wall and retreated 300 meters.
In this regard, Yang Zhen is also very helpless.
"You've learned kung fu these days, why don't you come out? You even asked me to warn them?" Yang Zhen was stunned when he heard Ning Lang's request: "You didn't say it yourself, so let me not take action. , but now it is you who came to me and asked me to help you out?"
"How can it be the same?" Ning Lang said, "If I fight one by one, there are so many refugees, how long will I have to fight? Besides, you didn't see the boss looking at me, as if you were waiting for some day. When I was ordered, I wanted to rush up and beat me up, how could I give him such a chance? If one day I am actually ordered, it will not be a fist thing. "
"..."
Ning Lang said triumphantly: "But you are different, now they are still waiting for your answer, if you open your mouth, no one of them can touch me anymore, so I don't need a little effort, I can get what I want. desired result.”
Yang Zhen said, "Don't listen to what they say about you now."
"It doesn't mean that we are broken sleeves, and what are you... You are stunned." Ning Lang touched his chin: "Then what am I
"..."
"But Ah Nuan also said that every time my brain heats up, I throw my fists and rush out. Such behavior is the most stupid." Ning Lang said, "Anyway, we are husband and wife. I will borrow your reputation. It's normal to let others hurt me. If I can get what I want so easily, why do I have to spend so much time doing it? A Nuan said, this is the most stupid behavior."
Yang Zhen looked at him, a little surprised.
Ning Lang said proudly, "How is it? Didn't expect me to be so powerful?"
"..."
"You actually listened to what your sister said." Yang Zhen said strangely: "If your sister finds out, she will definitely be surprised."
"I only discovered it recently." Ning Lang said, "Didn't Ning Shuo want to hurt me before? If it were me, I would have beaten him up. At first, my father and my mother sued him. There is also King An. I have never wanted him to help me before, but this time, King An has helped me a lot. Ning Shuo is locked in a cell, and I don’t know when he will come out in the future. It's definitely not a good day, and when I think about it, I'm happy."
Yang Zhen said, "Then you found out?"
"Not really." Ning Lang said, "I know, I've always had a bad mind, and I've always had a straight line in everything, but Ning Shuo is so powerful, if it wasn't for King An, I might have been beaten by him. Poisoned to death. If I had thought of this way earlier, there would have been no chance for him to harm me, and he would have been poisoned to death earlier."
"..." Yang Zhen's eyes were complicated.
Ning Lang continued: "Of course, I'm also joking. A person like me who obeys the law and abides by the law can't do this murder? But if I was smarter in the past, I wouldn't have been framed by Ning Shuo every time. If I can be as smart as A Nuan, maybe I can turn to Ning Shuo. Since I was a child, I have been scolded by my father and the old lady because of him. But this time Ning Shuo The bad luck also drags on King An's blessing. With King An, the matter can be solved early, if I had asked King An to help me earlier, I would not have been kidnapped by Ning Shuo later."
Yang Zhen nodded.
Ning Lang continued to conclude: "Now, since I ask you to help, I can solve things faster, so I don't need to fight those people myself, don't you think? Although I didn't fight people smoothly, I saw those people. People look like they want to hit me but don't dare, and I feel very happy."
"Good."
Ning Lang is proud.
Yang Zhen said, "But I still like you the way you are."
The smile on Ning Lang's face froze, looking at her, the smugness on his face gradually turned into horror.
Ning Lang was shocked and said: "Then... Then I'll go down the mountain and beat people up again?"
Yang Zhen gave him a deep look: "But now, it seems that I haven't grown much."
"..."
Ning Lang's expression became tangled again.
The little people in his head fought each other, and after a long time, he reacted with hindsight, raised his head suddenly, looked at her with sparkling eyes, and said with great interest, "Did you say you like me just now? "
Yang Zhen: "..."
It really didn't improve at all.
…
Yang Zhen hid on the mountain for a long time, but finally waited for the eldest prince who brought troops to pacify the chaos.
As soon as the soldiers and horses arrived, the refugees immediately panicked, and soon they couldn't bear it any longer, revealing their purpose.
She moved almost immediately.
The bandits who had been waiting on Qinglong Mountain for a long time immediately took up their weapons and aggressively killed Qinglong Mountain.
Those refugees were caught off guard. Looking at Yang Zhen on the horse, the leader yelled, "Yang Zhen... you!"
Yang Zhen looked at the man aloofly, holding a spear with a spear in her hand. She raised her chin and said arrogantly, "I'm here to answer you now, but I won't!"
"you… !"
…
Beijing.
Chu Fei had been observing the movements in Qingzhou, and when he heard the battle report, he immediately went to tell Ning Nuan after returning to the house.
He beamed and said: "A Nuan, it's done."
Ning Nuan also had a bit of joy on his face: "Really?"
"The eldest prince led his troops to Yaocheng, where he met a group of bandits on Qinglong Mountain. Those bandits took the initiative to help. With the help of these bandits, the eldest prince quickly calmed down the turmoil in Yaocheng, and now he is ready to leave for his return. Beijing."
Ning Nuan said anxiously, "What about brother and Miss Yang?"
"They have made great contributions and have established a good relationship with the first prince. This time, they will return to Beijing with the first prince."
Ning Nuan breathed a sigh of relief.
She added: "Will the identity of my brother make the first prince mind? And Miss Yang, Miss Yang had returned to the capital with her brother before. Many people have seen her, will it make people suspicious?"
"Naturally not." Chu Fei said, "Even if he knew, it would only be regarded as a coincidence. Could it be that the turmoil in Yao City was caused by them?"
That is of course impossible.
The eldest prince is not a fool either, so he would naturally doubt the reason why Ning Lang and Yang Zhen appeared here. But Ning Lang came to Qingzhou early, and Yang Zhen grew up in Qingzhou. The bandits here have been around for many years, and this turmoil has nothing to do with Yang Zhen and Ning Lang, and things started to happen. In Yaocheng, they took the initiative to help suppress the unrest when it came to Qingzhou.
Yang Zhen is not a fool either. He knew that the first prince would be suspicious, but he did not let the first prince see that something was wrong.
Therefore, after thinking about it, the eldest prince can only attribute this to coincidence.
I don't know how Yang Zhen did it, but he even called the eldest prince a brother and a brother, so that the eldest prince trusted her very much, and he had to take her back to the capital and let the emperor reward him well. Yang Zhen refused for a few points, but he refused, and this was the reason for his words.
After the refugees were driven out of Qingzhou and the turmoil in Yaocheng was quelled, the person Chu Fei had found earlier also found an underground river, which finally solved the problem of water shortage in Yaocheng. And just when the first prince was about to leave for Beijing, it finally rained heavily.
After the matter reached the capital, the eldest prince led his troops back to the capital, and countless people greeted him. The popularity he had lost because of his unfavorable performance came back all of a sudden, and even the limelight overwhelmed the crown prince, and everyone praised him for a while. Great prince.
And Yang Zhen and Ning Lang naturally came back with the eldest prince.
As a great hero, Yang Zhen entered the palace and met with the sage. When he left the palace, he became a military officer, not a small one, and he also managed a lot of people. As for Ning Lang, the prince of the village, he packed up and returned to the Ning family.
Jiang Yunlan had been worrying about their safety ever since she heard that there was an accident in Qingzhou. Now, after finally waiting for Ning Lang to come back, she breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.
A few days later, Jiang Yunlan began to bury her.
"This is to calm down the turmoil, such a dangerous thing, because you are still a big man, and let Yang Zhen rush ahead." Jiang Yunlan scolded: "You are Yang Zhen's husband, you should protect her, how can you let her turn the other way? protect you?"
Ning Lang was extremely aggrieved.
"Also, Yang Zhen has made so much effort and has become an official. What about you? It's a shame that you came out of Qingzhou. Even Yang Zhen's subordinates are inferior."
Ning Lang quibble: "When Yang Zhen went down the mountain, she didn't let me go down. If I go down too, I might be the official at this time."
"You still want to be an official." Jiang Yunlan mocked: "Look at you now, you are the one with the smallest status under Yang Zhen's subordinates. Even Yang Zhen's original ones and subordinates are higher than you, and they are all on your head."
Ning Lang: "..."
If this is to be ranked according to merit, he really can't be ranked very well.
The group of bandits under Yang Zhen who brought them to the capital were all brothers who followed her to death. Everyone on the mountain easily killed a wild beast. They were originally capable people in the cottage. Chaos, but also a lot of effort. Ning Lang naturally did not flinch when he met those refugees, and he also helped fight a lot of them.
It's just that everyone in Qingzhou is martial, and the people of Qingzhou also made a lot of efforts during the turmoil. Ning Lang was among them, but he was not at all brilliant, perhaps not as much credit as a commoner in Qingzhou.
Ning Lang didn't dare to say anything. After listening to Jiang Yunlan's lesson, he happily went out to find Yang Zhen.
The turmoil in Yaocheng lasted for a long time, and when the dust settled, even the weather cooled down.
I wish the family a happy event.
Xue Mingyu is pregnant!
Since she was married into Zhu's family, she has lived a very comfortable life every day. Not to mention marrying her Ruyi Langjun, Zhu Hanshan treats her very well, everything goes with her, and she does not lose any temper with her. The family is simple, there is no one other than Madam Zhu and Hanshan Zhu. Madam Zhu treats her like her own granddaughter and fights with Zhu Hanshan every day to treat her well. And the affairs in the mansion are also handled by Mrs. Xue's maid, so it can be said that everything goes well.
Life was going well, she ate and drank well, and when Ning Nuan saw her, she thought she had gained weight.
Xue Mingyu touched her face and was a little worried: "A Nuan, you seem to be right. Today I took out last year's clothes, but I also felt a little tight."
"If you have a good life, you will naturally gain weight." Ning Nuan said, "My mother is also, and she gained a lot of weight last year."
"But if I'm fat, my husband won't like it." Xue Mingyu worried: "Will my husband think I'm not good-looking?"
"How come, even if I see you are fat, your appearance is the same as before." Ning Nuan said: "I wish you are not that kind of person, don't you know?"
Of course she knew that.
The woman is the one who pleases herself, but when she thinks that her appearance will become ugly, Xue Mingyu becomes worried.
Ning Nuan had to say something else to divert her attention.
While the two were talking, they almost used it. Xue Mingyu ate up a plate of sour jujube cake, and was still a little unfulfilled: "A Nuan, the chefs in your palace are really good."
Ning Nuan asked the servant to bring another plate, and said, "This cook is our prince's favorite, I can't give it to you, but if you like it, you can ask the cook to write you how to make this sour jujube cake. , go back and let the cook do the same..." Ning Nuan paused, she looked at the empty plate, and touched her stomach again.
Her belly was empty, she only drank two cups of tea, and ate nothing. This whole plate of sour jujube cakes all went into Xue Mingyu's stomach.
Ning Nuan was surprised: "Did you eat the whole plate of cakes without having lunch?"
"I... I just like to eat." Xue Mingyu looked at the empty plate and was a little embarrassed: "I have eaten a lot recently, no wonder I have gained a lot of weight, A Nuan, don't laugh at me."
"I'm laughing at what you do. If you like to eat this, you can eat more. I'm just afraid that you will be greedy and ruin your stomach."
Xue Mingyu lowered her head, a little shy.
The servant quickly brought up a new plate of sour jujube cake, Xue Mingyu was overjoyed, and quickly reached out and picked up a piece and ate it. Seeing how happy she was eating, Ning Nuan couldn't help being moved, and reached out and took one.
As soon as she entered, her whole face was wrinkled.
Xiangtao rushed in in a panic, and when she saw the sour jujube cake in her hand, she screamed, "Princess, you have already eaten it!"
Ning Nuan hurriedly put down the cake, and even Xue Mingyu couldn't help but stop.
"What's wrong with this pastry?"
"Today's pastry is not made by the usual cook, but by his apprentice. His apprentice misremembered the recipe and missed it for a while. He accidentally added more ingredients, and only found out when it was done." Xiang Tao said: "This is not, As soon as I found it, I immediately came to find the slave, but I didn't realize that you already ate it."
Ning Nuan said: "No wonder I feel a little too sour."
Xue Mingyu didn't realize it. After hearing that the pastry was non-toxic, she continued to eat it again. She said, "I think it tastes better this time than the last time."
Ning Nuan: "…"
Ning Nuan saw that she was eating happily, and suddenly felt a little toothache.
"Don't you think this pastry is too sour?"
Before Xue Mingyu said anything, her maid said, "Princess doesn't know, our wife has recently changed her taste and likes to eat sour food. Even our master can't accept it."
Ning Nuan was taken aback: "Do you like to eat sour?"
"That's not it." Xue Mingyu put down the pastry and said embarrassedly: "I don't know why recently, not only did I eat more than before, but the taste has also changed a lot. I don't have any preference for food, so I also eat sour food. It's just that my taste became sudden, and I thought it was just right. They all thought it was too sour, and my husband didn't want to disappoint me. Naturally, I couldn't force him. I don’t dare to eat too sour things at home, but now that I’m here with you, I’m finally happy to eat.”
Ning Nuan thought for a moment and asked, "Have you seen the doctor?"
Xue Mingyu was stunned: "This sour eater is still sick?"
Seeing her and her maid's dazed faces, Ning Nuan was helpless, and she hurriedly asked Xiang Tao to call the imperial doctor in the palace.
In the palace, the imperial doctor came to diagnose the pulse every three days, so any changes in the body could be detected immediately. But Zhu's family is young, Zhu Hanshan was born in extreme poverty, and now he is only doing a writing essay in the Hanlin Academy. His salary is not high, and he is used to being diligent and thrifty. Although he treats Xue Mingyu very well and follows everything, he does not remember to leave it at home. a doctor. Although there are doctors who come to the door from time to time, but that is also for Mrs. Zhu to see a doctor.
Therefore, as soon as the doctor in the palace came, he immediately said, "I wish Madam good luck!"
Xue Mingyu and her maid froze in place.
Ning Nuan was prepared, and hurriedly asked Xiang Tao to get the reward. Xiangtao didn't expect it either. She was called out, and then she reacted. She hurriedly went to get the reward money for the imperial doctor. When she walked out, she was still floating.
Xue Mingyu was at a loss: "A Nuan, say it, say it, the imperial doctor just said..."
"Say you're happy!" Ning Nuan repeated.
Xue Mingyu touched her still somewhat flat lower abdomen, her face full of shock, and she has not recovered from this huge surprise.
"I heard you say that you like to eat sour food, and I felt something was wrong." Ning Nuan said: "Call the imperial doctor over, and it looks like it is. You didn't notice it at all?"
"I didn't expect..." Xue Mingyu said blankly, "How could it be so fast?"
"Aren't you happy?"
"Of course not." Xue Mingyu finally reacted, with a delighted smile on her face, rubbed her stomach, and said in surprise, "I just didn't expect it to come so quickly. I thought it was just me eating all of a sudden. There are too many, and the taste has changed, A Nuan, if it weren't for you, maybe in a few days, I would just think that I was getting fat."
Ning Nuan was helpless.
She sent her servants to Xue's house to inform her, but she didn't forget to let Zhu Hanshan know.
Looking at Xue Mingyu and her maid again, the two of them have fallen into a huge joy, and even forgot about the notification.
Escorted people back to Zhu's house, and talked to Mrs. Zhu. Mrs. Zhu was really overjoyed, even her complexion was much better, and she was struggling to get out of bed to take care of her grandson-in-law, but fortunately, she was forced back. . Ning Nuan brought people over, busy in and out of Zhu's house.
The Xue family soon got the news. Mrs. Xue had not returned home, but Mrs. Xue came in a carriage immediately. As soon as she entered the door, she went straight to Xue Mingyu with the same joy on her face as Xue Mingyu. Did not let go.
As for Zhu Hanshan's side, after hearing the report, he was so happy that he passed out and went to the doctor first.
Zhu's family was very happy, and everyone who came in and out was full of smiles. At dusk, Zhu Hanshan, who had sobered up, returned home in a hurry.
As soon as he entered the door, he was first reprimanded.
"The doctor said that Mingyu's baby has been in her stomach for more than a month. As her husband, you didn't notice it at all?" Madam Xue angrily said, "I heard Mingyu say that her taste has changed. You are still eating sour with you, Mingyu has it in his stomach, can't you have it too? It's a shame that you are still a scholar, and you didn't even notice this!" It doesn't matter what the scholar has to do with it.
Zhu Hanshan happily listened to the scolding.
After Mrs. Xue finished scolding, Mrs. Zhu rarely scolded him: "You follow Mingyu every day, and you don't even notice this?"
Zhu Hanshan responded repeatedly: "It's my fault, it's my fault, I should have found out earlier."
Madam Zhu glared at him and waved him away again.
After Zhu Hanshan finished being scolded happily, he leaned over to Xue Mingyu's side, touched her stomach, moved cautiously, and his face was full of joy.
Mentioning what happened today, everyone thanked Ning Nuan again, took her hand, and said many words of thanks.
Ning Nuan was very unaccustomed to the enthusiasm of everyone. After listening to the thanks one by one, seeing that the sky was getting dark and making excuses that it was not early, she fled into the carriage and returned to the palace.
