"As you said, Ji is just a small showman, and he can't be used, so I also ask Her Royal Highness the princess to ask for another master." Ji Ning stood up straight, and was scolded back by Princess Wenren's personal attendant Zixuan.

Zixuan never expected that Ji Ning's little talent would dare to speak up directly, and she suddenly exploded in anger, her towering chest rose and fell for a while, and her beautiful eyes shot a sharp cold light.

When she was about to open her mouth to reprimand Ji Ning, and even threatened to cure Ji Ning's crime, Zhao Yuanrong had already raised her greasy white right hand and waved it lightly, signaling her not to be excited, she could only hold back her anger.

Zhao Yuanrong looked at Ji Ning calmly and said, "The employment of people in this palace has always been convincing, and capable talents have always been preferential. Say what you want. ”

In fact, she was also surprised by Ji Ning's direct refusal to play for her.

Over the years, with the favor of her father and mother, she has actively participated in court politics.

In the process of participating in the government affairs, she not only recruited a group of important officials to obey her orders, but also recruited a large number of talents to work for her directly.

Among the many talents she has recruited, there are many talents who have the fame of Jinshi.

Moreover, as her power grows, more and more powerful people beg to join her command and serve her.

Therefore, in recruiting Ji Ning, she thought that with just one sentence, this Yin Xiucai would immediately be grateful and bow.

If it weren't for the fact that she was more optimistic about Ji Ning's potential, she would have sent someone to collect Luo Jining a long time ago, and she would not have summoned him in person at all.

However, she is still very sure that Ji Ning will work for her.

Because, she is sure that Ji Ning loves money, and the last thing she lacks is money.

"Thank you, Your Highness Princess, for your kindness and tolerance." Ji Ning arched his hand and said, "As the so-called scholar dies for his confidant, Your Royal Highness the Princess, you don't dislike the students for not learning and having a bad reputation, and the students should serve Her Royal Highness the Princess......"

Hearing this, Zhao Yuanrong couldn't help but smile and nodded slightly.

However, the next moment, her smile suddenly froze.

I only heard Ji Ning's words change and said, "However, more than ten days ago, the students swore in public that they would run Sanwei Academy with all their hearts. This matter was known to the entire Jinling City, and Shen Lao, a scholar of Fuliang University, and the prefect were also present at that time. The oath is still in the ears, and the students are more than enough but not enough, and I implore Her Royal Highness the princess to forgive her sins. ”

In addition, on that day, the Fuliang scholar punished the students for copying the Analects and the Mean, and had to send the manuscripts to him for inspection every five days. Fuliang University Scholar has very strict requirements, and he must be neat and neat, and he must not be sloppy. According to the current progress estimate, it will not be possible to complete the punishment of the personal supervision of the Fuliang University Scholar in two or three years. ”

When Zi Xuan heard that Ji Ning dared to raise Shen Kang to suppress Zhao Yuanrong and force Zhao Yuanrong to give up his plan to recruit him, she couldn't help but be so angry that her eyebrows rose upside down, her nose fluttered, and she was extremely angry.

"Since that's the ......case," Zhao Yuanrong had a slightly cold face, and half-turned his head to Zixuan behind him, "Zixuan, send off guests on behalf of the palace." ”

"No." Zi Xuan responded, walked out from behind Zhao Yuanrong, and said to Ji Ning in a cold tone: "Please!" ”

Ji Ning also knew that he had offended Princess Wenren deeply, but he didn't care much. In a few days, this princess will definitely go back to the capital, and it will not affect him at all.

He calmly bowed to Zhao Yuanrong and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, the student has taken his leave." ”

Zhao Yuanrong moved his gaze to the side and did not respond to Ji Ning.

Ji Ning didn't care, turned around and left the pavilion, and walked out of the courtyard along the corridor.

Walking out of the courtyard, Zi Xuan turned around and went back directly, leaving Ji Ning alone, regardless of whether Ji Ning knew the way to the carriage and horse courtyard of King Chong's Mansion.

Returning to the pavilion, Zixuan said to Zhao Yuanrong angrily: "Princess, that scholar is too ignorant!" ”

"Hmm." Zhao Yuanrong said, "However, it was your and my wish to solicit this kind of thing, and if he didn't want to, forget it." Maybe we were too smooth before. ”

She was really angry just now, from childhood to adulthood, she was a real princess, who didn't rely on her? Even her father and mother are what she wants.

On Ji Ning just now, she tasted rejection for the first time. It tasted very, very unpleasant.

If she hadn't tried her best to suppress her anger intellectually, maybe she would have ordered someone to cure Ji Ning's sin immediately.

However, during the period when Zixuan sent Ji Ning away, she gradually calmed down and understood that it was not her who made a voice to solicit her, and everyone immediately obediently obeyed her orders.

In this world, even her father and the emperor have many people who can't order.

So, she gradually relieved.

It's just the taste of being rejected by Ji Ning, she is only afraid that she will never forget it for a lifetime.

Riding the carriage back to Ji's house, Yuling greeted him expectantly.

"Young master, young master, what is Princess Wenren summoning you for?" Yu Ling asked impatiently.

He An next to him also listened.

On the way back just now, because it was not the place to speak, he kept refusing to ask.

Ji Ning smiled and said, "It's nothing." Talked nonsense about the problem of two lines of poetry. ”

"Really?" Yu Ling didn't believe it, "The slave maid heard that Princess Wenren intends to ...... horses in Jinling City."

Before she finished speaking, Ji Ning reached out and pinched her pink peach cheeks.

"It's really whimsical." Ji Ning said with a smile, pinched it again, and then let go of her.

Yu Ling's pretty face suddenly turned red like blood, and she lowered her head, and the tip of her delicate and small chin touched her towering and full breastsOn her chest, she was so ashamed that she wanted to get into the crack in the ground: Uncle An was watching from the side!

He An faked coughing twice in embarrassment, feeling that the young master had become better in the past few months, but he was even more frivolous when he teased Yuling, and he didn't avoid him much.

Ji Ning pretended to smile aloud and walked towards the study, and at the same time raised his voice without looking back: "Young Master Ben is studying." ”

"Uncle An, I ......" Yu Ling said to He An embarrassedly.

He An shook his head helplessly and said, "Pay attention next time." It's best to remind the young master a few words...... Although you will be the young master's person sooner or later...... Let's go and serve the young master to read. ”

"No." Yu Ling answered, and walked towards the study with a red face.

He An watched Yu Ling enter the study with a smile on his face.

Not only did Ji Ning grow up under his care, but why didn't he take care of Yuling? Ji Ning dotes on Yu Ling, and Yu Ling relies on Ji Ning, so he is naturally happy to see it.

He was about to turn around and go into the house to work when there was a knock at the door.

"It's coming!" He called out and went to open the door.

As the door opened, he was stunned for a moment, then frowned, and said in a cold voice, "Wang Zhong, what's the matter with you?" ”

It turned out that it was none other than Wang Zhong, the new housekeeper of the Ji Mansion, who was standing in front of the gate.

"Hehe, Brother He, don't be cold-faced, we are all a family, and we haven't looked up for decades." Wang Zhong put on a flattering smile and said, "The patriarch asked me to find Young Master Ning, you let me in." ”
