Chapter 584: Willing to Accept or Not
Ji Ning is very curious, who is this Mr. Song, who is worthy of Zhao Yuanqi to introduce him?
He didn't want to get close to the people of Chongwangfu, mainly because he knew that now King Chong and King Hui coveted the throne, and it was likely to turn into a storm of struggle for power and profit, and he was already helping Zhao Yuanrong for the time being, as well as the forces of the crown prince Zhao Yuangeng's family, and now if he continues to entangle with the people of Chongwangfu, it is likely that the final result will be fire**.
Zhao Yuanqi asked curiously, "What's inconvenient about Mr. Song?" Isn't he just a guest inside? ”
The people in the official mansion were also a little embarrassed, and from this look, Ji Ning could probably guess that there should be women in the banquet living room in addition to wine and tea, so this side did not support letting Zhao Yuanqi join in the fun.
Ji Ning said: "His Royal Highness, I have important things to do tomorrow, and it is still inconvenient to stay longer, so I will leave and meet again when I have time!" ”
Zhao Yuanqi frowned slightly and said: "Yongning, I originally wanted to introduce you to this Mr. Song, you don't know, he is one of the smartest people in the Great Yong Dynasty, he doesn't ask about his career all his life, he is somewhat similar to you, and even he has never even participated in the imperial examination, but his wisdom is beyond the reach of others, I also want you two smart people in the Great Yong Dynasty to get to know each other, who knows...... Alas! But that's right, you have something important tomorrow, this is a major event related to your life, I won't bother you, or go back early, do you need me to find someone to send you? ”
"No need!" Ji Ning said, "If His Royal Highness the Prince has anyone to see, he won't bother much, so he will leave!" ”
Ji Ning didn't want to say too much to Zhao Yuanqi, so he left directly, and Zhao Yuanqi didn't come out to see him off, so the two said goodbye in the Jinling Hall.
Ji Ning had already walked out of the door, and the people in the official mansion behind him were still muttering: "It's a lifelong event, do you want to welcome your relatives tomorrow?" It's not easy to do things in such a hurry, but today you still come out to visit relatives and friends! ”
……
……
Ji Ning left the Jinling Hall, thinking about "Mr. Song" in his heart, Zhao Yuanqi described how famous this person seemed to be, but he didn't know anything about this person before.
Ji Ningxin said: "I have always been an outsider, and I have a lot of knowledge in my head, but I still don't know much about the people in this world. Fortunately, with Zhao Yuanrong here, she should know much more than me, and I can ask her more in the future! ”
Looking up at the sky, it happened to be the middle of the month, the bright moon was in the sky, Ji Ning also knew that it was not too early, he wanted to go back to the house directly, but thinking of Zhao Yuanrong's few books, he wanted to go over and take a look.
"After I passed, I wouldn't stay there, or wouldn't I go on her embroidered couch?" Thinking of this, Ji Ning hurriedly set off to Zhao Yuanrong's small residence.
Along the way, he was also cautious, for fear that he would be followed, especially the people in Chongwang's Mansion.
In the end, he was still too careful, Zhao Yuanqi didn't mean to track him at all, it was obvious that Zhao Yuanqi still valued and trusted him.
After arriving at Zhao Yuanrong's hut, Ji Ning directly opened the door and entered the room, it was dark and rumbling, and there was no one inside.
The weather in March, it is not cold to say that it is cold, and it is not warm to say that it is warm, especially after the heavy dew in the middle of the night, Ji Ning tightened his clothes, closed the doors and windows tightly, and then went to the table to read those books.
Ji Ning didn't plan to say that he would study the night before the palace exam, but he felt that he was very energetic, so he came over to read the book and increase his knowledge.
Just when Ji Ning was looking very seriously, Ji Ning suddenly heard footsteps behind him, this sound made him alert, he collected his mind, walked to the door and looked down, but saw Haoyue in the sky, Zhao Yuanrong was standing at the staircase, looking up vigilantly at the cottage on the second floor.
"You? Haven't left yet? Zhao Yuanrong was also a little embarrassed when he saw Ji Ning.
In the end, it was night, and the two themselves did not have a very close relationship, and it would always be inconvenient to get along in the hut.
Ji Ning didn't say anything, he was about to leave, but Zhao Yuanrong had already walked up the stairs and invited him inside.
"Originally, I just couldn't figure out some things, I wanted to come over and be quiet, who knew that I would meet you, and it was a coincidence to say." Zhao Yuanrong said, "Ji Ning, you didn't go back in the afternoon, until now...... You haven't even eaten anything, have you? ”
Ji Ning smiled: "I went back to my house, and even went to Jinling Hall once, and then I came over!" ”
"Oh? Why go to Jinling Hall? Zhao Yuanrong asked curiously.
Ji Ning said: "I have an old friend in the next place, who is doing business in Jinling City, and her business is not small, but unfortunately she has been suppressed by the crown prince and the five princes at the same time recently, so that most of the money has been squeezed away, and it is even difficult to survive now!" ”
"What do you mean...... Who is it? Zhao Yuanrong looked at Ji Ning curiously.
Ji Ning replied very seriously: "Qin Yuanyuan." ”
"Oh." Zhao Yuanrong showed a sudden look and said, "I have also heard of this person, and I heard that in Jinling City, and even all parts of the south of the Yangtze River, he is very open-minded, and even has business in the north. This woman's means of doing business are not simple. But Yongning, how much do you know about her? ”
Ji Ning said: "As far as I know, she should be the person arranged by Li Guifei in Jiangnan, the purpose is to grab money, she should have transported a large amount of silver money for Li Guifei and Uncle Li Guo over the years, she did not rely on her own ability, but by marriage, and then killed her husband who had just gotten married, and took the property of her husband's family as her own with the reputation of 'Kefu'...... Too radical in some things! ”
Zhao Yuanrong smiled and said, "It's rare that you still have someone who you admire so much, you won't ...... You want to keep her for yourself, right? ”
"The princess misunderstood." Ji Ning said calmly, "With her identity, no one dares to contaminate her, not only will the fifth prince control her, but the prince also wants to take her money for himself, she came to me for help before...... At the beginning, I did receive some favors from her, and I wanted to help, but the amount of money she proposed was too big, and I couldn't help it, because of the offending of King Hui, I live outside these days, and I have no contact with her, so I will feel a little sorry for her......"
"And what do you think?" Zhao Yuanrong asked very sincerely, just like a friend
Ji Ning said with a smile: "I imagined it before, if she could take refuge in the princess...... Would the princess be willing to take this person under her command? ”
