Empress can't eat enough

Chapter 11
Returning home from his job at the Ministry of Criminal Justice at noon the next day, Wei Yuan called Wei Yingning to his study and told her that the British government held a spring banquet, and he hoped that she could also attend.

Wei Yingning Bingxue was clever, and quickly guessed that his father's personal involvement in the affairs of the rear house must be what the mistress told him last night.Since her father spoke, she must obey.

"Your mother is not only trying to disturb your leisure, but also planning for your future marriage." Wei Yuan did not forget to explain that he was afraid that his daughter would misunderstand her as a stepmother.

"My daughter knows." Wei Yingning replied obediently. "Second sister is also old enough to discuss marriage. My mother is anxious to take us out to see and see. I should obey."

Wei Yuan could hear that there was something wrong in the words, but for a moment he couldn't figure out why, and thought that the child agreed, and that's fine.

"Father, you have arrested the third wife of Marquis Pingning's residence. In court today, is Marquis Pingning unhappy looking for you?" Wei Yingning quickly changed the subject.

"He won't make a fuss in front of the sage about this matter." Wei Yuan said, "In the future, there will be times when he will make me look good. But how can you be afraid of such things as a father?"

"The most urgent thing is to get the third lady to confess her crimes as soon as possible." Wei Yingning was thinking, fearing that the night would be long and dreamy, and something would happen in vain.

"Right now, finding the butler of the Zhao family at that time is the most important thing." Wei Yuan said with confidence: "Hurry up! People in the Pingning Hou Mansion are also looking for his whereabouts. The mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind. Just send someone to keep an eye on the people sent by the Pingninghou Mansion."

"Now that things are going on, the Marquis of Pingning still wants to restore its reputation? It's really not the slightest bit of dirt, and they don't want to admit it. Are they not afraid that in the end they will lose a lot because of small things?" Wei Yingning simply didn't understand the behavior of Marquis of Pingning.

It is better to admit generously that the housekeeper is not strict, or to hate evil and kill relatives, than to cover up like this.

"Pingning Hou Yingming, I can't see clearly on this matter." Wei Yuan also sighed, he just said that as a person who has never lost, he would take the matter of winning or losing too seriously. .

Talking about this matter, Li Chongjian's ghost floated in from outside, smiling at Wei Yingning.

"If father has nothing else to do, Aning will leave first." Wei Yingning hurriedly said goodbye to Wei Yuan.

Li Chongjian came here now, probably looking for something to do with her.

When she got out of the study room, she asked him in a low voice, "What do you want from me?"

"Sure enough, Mrs. Zhao Bai ran away." Li Chongjian said unhurriedly.

Wei Yingning was not surprised, he just said: "Her matter is not over yet, when the dust settles, she will definitely come back."

"But I don't know when this matter will be settled." Li Chongjian thought about it, looked at Wei Yingning again and said, "I see that your complexion is not good, it's time to eat."

"Don't worry." Wei Yingning hugged and smiled, "It will be fine for another month or so."

With the presence of Huai'an King Li Chongjian, she was much happier.

She used to go out at night to find ghosts herself.Even so, she often couldn't eat a ghost for a month or two, and her whole body was as thin as a stick, and she almost didn't even have the strength to walk.

She still remembers the year when she first got the eccentricity, the first time she didn't eat a ghost for three consecutive months, and she was about to die, her father took her across two counties to find one.That time, when she saw her father crying, she felt extremely uncomfortable.

Later, such things happened more often... until she grew up and knew the plan, so that she would not let herself often fall into the embarrassment of not being able to find the ghost.

"No." Li Chongjian interrupted her thoughts, and said solemnly, "Tomorrow, there will be hundreds of flowers blooming at the spring banquet. If you participate in this state, it may be difficult for you to get things done."

"What's the matter?" Wei Yingning couldn't help laughing when he saw that he cared about him.

"Madam, don't you ask knowingly?" Li Chongjian also smiled, and then said: "I have already found one for you. A family in the suburbs of the city lost their wife in the early years, and died suddenly of a serious illness a few days ago. My [-]-year-old daughter has no one to take care of her, so she stayed in the world for a few days and refused to leave."

"Both parents have passed away, the six-year-old child... is really pitiful." Wei Yingning sighed with emotion.

Afterwards, she returned to Tingxue Pavilion, took Wei Nanny and Ah Man with her and headed to the outskirts of the city.

Little did they know that Ah Man was dressed as a man and drove a carriage, driving her and Nanny Wei out of Yongping Lane not long before she was spotted by someone.

When I came to the family, the little girl with a sallow and thin face was sitting in the main room eating sweet potatoes from the neighbors.And the ghost of her dead father watched with hammer head dejected, unable to do anything.

"Little sister, what's your name?" Wei Yingning stepped forward with a gentle smile, and gently patted the little girl's head.

"My name is Linger." The little girl said in an immature tone, staring straight at Wei Yingning with a pair of pure eyes, instead of being timid because of the stranger's arrival, she stretched out the hand that had grabbed the sweet potato to touch Wei Yingning's clothes , while saying: "My sister's clothes are so beautiful!"

"Then how about you go home with me?" Wei Yingning said, "Come home with me, so that I can wear beautiful clothes like mine and have delicious fruits in the future."

Ling'er hesitated for a while, finally bit her lip and said, "I want to go home with my sister."

Wei Yingning then stood up and motioned for Nanny Wei to take Ling'er out.

Mother Wei didn't expect that she would take the little girl back to the mansion, so she was a little puzzled and said, "Ma'am, didn't you say that you can find an innocent family to adopt? Take it back to the mansion, mistress..."

"I will tell the mistress." Wei Yingning had already made a decision in his heart.

Mother Wei didn't say much, and led Ling'er out.

"Aman, you go outside and wait." Wei Yingning dismissed Ah Man and stood alone in the main room. Of course, she was accompanied by the ghosts of Li Chongjian and Linger's father.

At this time, the fourth prince Li Mu and his eunuch Huai En, who followed all the way and hid not far away, watched the scene where Wei Yingning spoke to nothing in front of him in the room alone, and then opened his mouth and closed his eyes and made some strange actions. In the eyes.

"Your Highness, what is the lady of the Wei family doing?" Wynn poked his head to see if there was anyone else in the main room.

Li Mu frowned, and also felt that Wei Yining was acting divinely.

He was going to attack her, but he followed her all the way out of the city driven by curiosity and followed her here.It turned out that although what she did was not something shady, she behaved very strangely.

"Who is here?!" Ah Man suddenly noticed something.

Wynn panicked and instinctively wanted to hide.Li Mu simply stood up generously.

"Fourth Highness?" Ah Man called out in surprise.

Wei Yingning in the house heard the sound and hurriedly turned his back, and hastily sucked the remaining soul of Ling'er's father.

Li Mu took three steps and made two steps to go inside.Looking around, he saw that there was no one else in the room except Wei Yingning, so he asked her suspiciously, "Who were you talking to just now?"
