Although the Rose Garden was lifted, Wen Wan has not been able to serve Mo Yuhou. Not to mention that he slept in Beiyuan every day when he came back, even if he wanted to come to the backyard, he would at most go to see Mu Shuiqing.
Mu Shuiqing's health is getting worse day by day, Wen Wan can hardly see her, even when she goes to visit, she is told to stay in bed, and during the day, the Marquis is not in the mansion, Wen Wan can only run to Liu Hanyun's place.
"I have to find a way." Wen Wan smiled, covered her mouth with a veil and said in a low voice: "Madam has to help me again, Master Hou is about to leave Beijing, if there is no movement, I can't get out of that rose Garden, isn’t it all the same?”
Liu Hanyun frowned, pursed his lips and said: "I promised Princess Kang Yuan at the beginning, just to find a way to release you, and I may not be able to help you with other things. After all, Lord Hou won't even come to my place."
Wen Wan pursed her lips: "Princess Kangyuan has entered the palace now, and it will be a matter of time before she has a title. If you help me, I will give the princess a good word. The benefits of Master Xi will definitely be indispensable in the future .”
Liu Hanyun lowered his eyes and remained silent.
"Could it be possible that madam is still thinking about her original kindness?" The expression on Wen Wan's face did not move, but her tone was disdainful: "She promoted you from a concubine to an aunt, but she just wanted you to go through the muddy water with her. Why is Madam so stupid and grateful? Now you see, she is not in the mansion, nor is the child in the mansion, but the heart of the Marquis and the position of the son, she is not left behind. How can such a good method be Good people."
Liu Hanyun shook her head: "She has protected me all the way, and she can't repay her kindness. I can do something for Xi'er, but I can't do it to harm her. If a person doesn't know how to be grateful, then he is even worse than a beast."
Wen Wan sneered, and hugged Xi'er who was leaning next to her: "Who is going to harm her? I just want to work hard on Master Hou. Have you ever heard of hallucinogenic weed, madam? I got a plant by chance, and I want to use it It’s on Master Hou. It’s just that he doesn’t even come to my yard, and he may not be able to drink the soup and medicine he sent, I don’t want to waste it.”
Xi'er struggled twice in her arms, and kicked Wen Wan's stomach. Wen Wan felt the pain, her expression changed suddenly, and she almost threw him out.
"Xi'er." Liu Hanyun quickly stretched out his hand to hug the child, patted his back to comfort him, frowned and said softly, "How can such messy things be used on Lord Hou? I won't help you."
Rubbing her belly gently, she pursed her lips tightly: "Mrs. really want to be so stubborn?"
Liu Hanyun carried Xi'er to the inner room: "Chun Pi, see off the guests."
Wen Wan was furious, but still had a smile on her face, greeted Tan Xiang and left together. If she refuses to help, she will wait for the opportunity by herself. I still don't believe that Ning Yuxuan will ignore her all his life.
Pedestrians on the streets of the capital were a little dazed, the price of grain posted on the street was astonishingly high, Ning Yuxuan was drinking tea in Ji's grain store, listening to the ignorant children running outside Singing: "If you don't eat rice, eat bran instead, the court will suffer and the people will suffer. The lame don't know how far the road is, and the poor don't know the smell of rice."
Glancing sideways at the person next to him, Ning Yuxuan said, "You made it up?"
Ji Man shook his head, looked at the ledger and said, "I don't know where it came from, but it has been sung for several days. The dark clouds over the capital will not be lifted, and many people are forced to leave their hometowns by the price of food. For a good meal."
What a legend it was for Zhao Li to seize the throne at the beginning. With a disabled body, he survived in the gap between many princes, but in the end he caught Zhao Jue by surprise and won the Ninth Five-Year Plan. Everyone thought that he would create a prosperous world, and at the beginning, many scholars praised him, saying that a person like him must be suitable to be the king of a country.
In the end, I didn't expect that Zhao Li could rise up in the troubled times, but he was paranoid and self-willed in the prosperous times. He didn't listen to advice and did whatever he wanted.
After Ji Man finished writing the account, he turned to look at Ning Yuxuan beside him and said, "Master Hou has always been smart, so why didn't he do anything about the current situation?"
"How should I take action?" Mo Yuhou said with a smile: "The power of the six ministries is slowly taken back by the emperor himself, so these things should naturally be taken care of by the emperor himself, and there is nothing I can do if I want to worry about it."
Ji Man raised her eyebrows, maybe it was her illusion, since Ning Yuxuan entered the palace, Ning Yuxuan's attitude towards the emperor seemed to have changed subtly.
"Master Hou, are you ready to turn against me?" Ji Man asked jokingly.
"No." Ning Yuxuan propped his chin, looked out the window and said, "As long as he is in power, I will serve him as long as he is."
Until he can be safely rescued.
Ji Man shrugged, the two of them are really strange, they both know each other's positions, yet they can still sit here and chat.
"When are you going back to Changjun?" Ning Yuxuan asked.
Ji Man took the thick account book and put it in the cabinet, thought for a while and said, "It's just the last few days, I'll leave after making arrangements for the grain business, or I won't be able to go back at the end of the year."
Ning Yuxuan frowned: "So fast?"
"Yeah." Ji Man turned around, looked at him and said with a smile: "Reluctance? Then come and listen to Master Hou saying that I love you?"
With a slightly gloomy face, Ning Yuxuan turned his head away and remained silent. After a while, he said again: "You are a woman's family, it is not suitable to go to Changjun, you might as well stay in the capital."
"The king of Changjun asked me to go back." Ji Man sighed, and said with some pride: "Now that the grain price in the capital is in my hands, as an important person, I naturally have to go to a safer place. Whoever recovered his memory leaked the news, your master arrested me and wanted to behead me, will you protect me or not?"
Ning Yuxuan was stunned, and lowered his eyes: "That's right, but you left so early, maybe you won't see each other for a long time."
Ji Man paused, and laughed lowly: "It's okay, isn't there other people around Master Hou? It's better than facing a man's face every day."
Turn around and continue tidying up the cabinets, separating the old accounts from the new ones. After arranging them one by one, I was so tired that my back hurt, but when I turned my head, there was no one at the table.
Those who come and go without a trace are good. Ji Man clicked his tongue twice, went out to find Yan Buba to arrange something, and then started to prepare the luggage.
Mo Yuhou didn't come back for the next few days, and Ji Man didn't care, probably because he was busy with something.
But on the day when she got in the car and was about to leave the capital for Changjun, Ning Yuxuan still didn't show up.
"What happened in the court recently?" Ji Man looked at Yan Buba with some unease and asked, "Have any high-ranking officials been arrested or placed under house arrest, such as Mo Yuhou?"
Yan Buba made calculations, gave her a weird look and said, "Master, don't worry and go on the road, Mo Yuhou has been doing well all along, neither was arrested nor placed under house arrest."
Then why didn't you come to see her? Jiman frowned. Habit is really a scary thing, Ning Yuxuan comes every day, she doesn't think there is anything wrong. Suddenly one day when she didn't come, she felt that she was not used to it. He obviously didn't care, like in a car that was going extremely slowly, he didn't feel it was moving at all, but when he braked, he would still lean forward with inertia.
Is this how Mo Yuhou picks up girls? Ji Man smiled lowly, packed his things, took two bodyguards and set off on the road.
If you don't come to deliver it, don't come and deliver it, she doesn't care.
But did the coachman do it on purpose? Why is it going out of the city and passing through Moyuhou Mansion? Just pass by, pass by, why not find an excuse to stop
"Stop." Ji Man yelled with a dark face.
The carriage stopped obediently, and the coachman looked back at her blankly: "Master?"
"There are old people inside, so I have to go in and say goodbye." Ji Man coughed twice, put his luggage and jumped out of the car: "You wait for me at the door."
"yes."
When Ji Man arrived at the door, when the concierge saw him, he didn't even inform him, and bowed with a smile and shouted: "Mr. Ji."
Nodding in embarrassment, before asking, the concierge said by himself: "Master Hou is still in the mansion, he should be in Beiyuan, sir just go in."
How enthusiastic, Ji Man pursed her lips, thanked him and walked inside.
Today Ning Yuxuan actually got up very early, while frowning to let the maid change her clothes, he asked Gui Bai: "Is she leaving today?"
Guibai nodded: "Didn't Master Hou say he won't send it?"
Ning Yuxuan snorted softly: "I'm just asking, I'll go shopping in the street later, not to see her off."
Gui Bai nodded: "Then there's no need to rush, wait for the kitchen to make breakfast, and you can go shopping after the master eats."
Mo Yuhou's face turned green, he looked at Gui Bai and said, "Am I too used to you?"
"Master, calm down." Gui Bai looked blank, completely unaware of where he was wrong. But seeing that he was angry, he still had to kneel down and plead guilty: "If you don't use breakfast, you will be hungry later."
"Master Hou." A gentle voice came from outside the door: "My concubine prepared breakfast for Lord Hou, and it happened to be brought here."
Ning Yuxuan raised his eyebrows, Guibai had already got up to open the door. Wen Wan came in with a smile, and brought seven dishes of side dishes and a stack of porridge, which looked particularly appetizing.
"Master Hou has to eat first if he wants to go out." Wen Wan stood aside, rubbing the handkerchief shyly and said: "I don't know what Master Hou liked to eat before, I just made it at will."
Seven small dishes were placed on a large plate, which looked very much like the meals Ji Man cooked during his southern tour. Ning Yuxuan looked at it for a while, then sat down at the table, took a bite with chopsticks.
Well, it's not as delicious as her cooking. But Wen Wan never knew how to cook before, but now she knows how to cook.
After eating two mouthfuls, Ning Yuxuan got up and planned to go out, it was getting late.
Wen Wan came to clean up the dishes, tripped, but fell into his arms, panicked and shy, pulled his sleeve and murmured: "Yu Xuan..."
Ning Yuxuan was startled, and looked down at her blankly.
Gui Bai looked at the time outside, and wanted to remind his master, but Mo Yuhou said: "Gui Bai, you go out first."
