Chapter 146 Letter (for Subscription)
Mannia took a deep breath and said: "Although Erlang told me that he has made an agreement with the Yu family, I am still a little worried. What should I do if the third girl of the Yu family does not let me come to the house after they get married?"

Although Gu Tingye said that if Miss Yu San refused, he would divorce his wife.

But divorcing his wife is not that simple. Gu Yankai will definitely stop it when the time comes.

Zhu Dazhuang thought for a while and said: "Didn't you say that Gu Tingye moved all his mother's belongings to you? Just in case, you first get some valuable things and sell them for silver. If nothing can be done in the end, we won't do anything." As for the loss of both human and financial resources.”

"But we have been planning for so long, and I really don't want to give in." Mannia said with an ugly face.

From the beginning, they saw that Gu Tingye was generous and wanted to get more money from Gu Tingye.

Later, when she learned Gu Tingye's identity, she thought of becoming Gu Tingye's concubine.

After planning for so long, she had fantasized many times about entering the Marquis Mansion and enjoying the glory and wealth, but she couldn't accept it when she was suddenly asked to give up.

"I'm not saying to give up, I'm just preparing for the worst. If Gu Tingye gets married and the three girls of the Yu family don't let you in, and he can't divorce his wife, what are we still doing here? As long as we have money, what are we afraid of? Are you having a hard time?" Zhu Dazhuang said.

Mannia fell silent upon hearing this, unable to make a decision for a moment.

"My silly sister, I just asked you to prepare for the worst, but I'm not saying that it will definitely not work out? You first get more money, and I will think of a way. If it really doesn't work, let's take the money and fly away." Zhu Dazhuang said .

Mannia gritted her teeth and said: "I know, I will find a way. That old woman doubts me, and the next things outside will depend on you."

"Don't worry, I also think that you can enter the Marquis Mansion and become a rich man, which is better than staying in Bianjing." Zhu Dazhuang said.

"Let me put it this way first, I have to go back, otherwise the maid will never find me and she will definitely talk nonsense when I go back." Mannia said.

……

Mannia came out of the alley and saw that no one was paying attention around her. She randomly found a shop to buy something and returned to the teahouse.

When Ruyi came back after buying snacks, she was very anxious when she couldn't find Mannia.

Seeing Mannia coming back, she quickly asked her where she had been.

Mannia said that she remembered that she had not bought all the things, so she went out to buy them, and the maid didn't think much about it.

……

"My lord, Prince Yan is outside asking for an audience." A servant reported.

"what?"

Yuan Wenshao was stunned for a moment. When he came back, Prince Yan came, and he no longer had any excuse for missing.

After hesitating for a moment, Yuan Wenshao asked someone to open the middle door and walked out.

Prince Yan stood at the door of the mansion and looked at the plaque given by the official, without any intention of covering it up.

When Yuan Wenshao saw this scene, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.

"I have met His Royal Highness," Yuan Wenshao saluted.

Prince Yan withdrew his gaze from the plaque, looked at Yuan Wenshao, gave him a little support, and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhongyong, there is no need to be polite. I see that the poem by Uncle Zhongyong is full of patriotism, and he is actually the pillar of the country. People admire.”

"Your Highness, thank you. The weather is hot now. Please come inside, Your Highness." Yuan Wenshao said.

"Then I'll excuse you." Prince Yan smiled and walked in.

After arriving at the front hall and taking a seat, Yuan Wenshao asked someone to serve tea.

Prince Yan picked up the teacup and took a sip. Seeing that Yuan Wenshao didn't say a word, he put down the teacup and said, "I took the liberty to come here today. Uncle Zhongyong seems a little unhappy?"

"I dare not." Yuan Wenshao said quickly: "It is my honor for Your Highness to come to Humble House."

"Haha, I came here this time to ask Uncle Zhongyong for advice on the art of war." Prince Yan said with a smile.

"Can I ask for advice on the art of war?"

Yuan Wenshao was stunned and quickly reacted.

He had not taken sides before, and now that King Yan was weak, it was even less possible for him to support King Yan.

King Yan also knew this, so Prince Yan's visit today was not to win over him at all.

It was just for King Yong to see. It didn't matter whether King Yong would think that Yuan Wenshao had taken refuge with King Yan.

With King Yong's character, he would definitely be suspicious, and that was enough.

Thinking of this, Yuan Wenshao's face became a little gloomy.

Although he knew that neither King Yong nor King Yan could succeed, he was still very displeased by King Yan's persecution.

"You guys go down first." Yuan Wenshao ordered his servants.

"Yes." The maid standing there bowed after hearing this and withdrew.

Yuan Wenshao looked at Prince Yan with a dull expression and said, "I have no intention of participating in this, so why does Your Highness bother to force me?"

Prince Yan was not angry because of Yuan Wenshao's attitude. He smiled and said, "That's why I didn't win over you today."

"His Highness said it lightly. You came to the door with such a big fanfare. I told others that you only came to ask for advice on the art of war. Who would believe it?" Yuan Wenshao said coldly.

"Yes, who would believe it?" Prince Yan pointed out.

Yuan Wenshao was silent when he heard this. Prince Yan was just saying that he did not believe that he would choose neutrality.

After a long time, Yuan Wenshao said: "Your Highness, are you not afraid that I will defect to King Yong in a fit of anger? You must know that King Yong's voice is much higher than that of King Yan."

"It doesn't matter, only by doing this can people feel at ease. And it is better to distinguish between friends and foes early than it is better not to know friends and foes." Prince Yan said with a smile.

Yuan Wenshao was so angry that he wanted to curse. Prince Yan's meaning was very simple. He came this time just to show off to King Yong and make King Yong suspect that Yuan Wenshao had defected to King Yan.

This eliminated the possibility of Yuan Wenshao seeking refuge with King Yong.

With King Yong's temperament, even if he takes refuge in King Yong now, the seeds of distrust have been sown. Even if he takes refuge in the past, he will not be trusted and will not be reused.

Maybe King Yong will take action against him after he succeeds to the throne.

King Yong and King Yan were both madmen. King Yong dared to attack the official's favorite concubine's sister before he became the crown prince, and the other even dared to rebel.

Yuan Wenshao has never dared to offend them, fearing that they would go crazy and do something.

However, these two people never let him go.

Yuan Wenshao even considered leaving Bianjing at this time.

"Haha, it seems that Uncle Zhongyong doesn't welcome me very much, so I'll take my leave first." Seeing that Yuan Wenshao had been silent, Prince Yan stood up and said with a smile.

Yuan Wenshao came to his senses and said, "I will see your Highness off."

No matter what, I am a member of the royal family, so I must have all the proper etiquette.

After seeing Prince Yan off, Yuan Wenshao turned around and entered the mansion, his face darkening.

"Go and notify Mr. Ning and ask him to come to the study to see me." Yuan Wenshao said.

"Yes." Zhang An responded and hurried away.

Yuan Wenshao didn't wait long in the study when Ning Zhiguang walked in.

"I've met uncle." Ning Zhiguang saluted.

Yuan Wenshao waved his hand and said, "Sit down." "Uncle Xie."

"You should know about Prince Yan's visit, right? What do you think of this?" Yuan Wenshao asked.

"This is a conspiracy. If I don't see my uncle, I estimate that King Yan will take action against him. If he sees King Yong, he will suspect that he has taken refuge with King Yan." Ning Zhiguang said.

Yuan Wenshao frowned slightly and said: "Of course I know this. I came to you to help me find a solution, not to listen to this nonsense."

Ning Zhiguang was not angry, and said calmly: "Originally, I wanted my uncle to offend someone who the two princes were trying to win over, but would not easily take sides. In this way, the two princes would naturally give up on my uncle. Now It will definitely not work in this situation, and the best way is to leave the whirlpool of Bianjing."

"If I could leave, I would have left long ago. Why wait until now?" Yuan Wenshao said a little irritably.

He had never thought about leaving Bianjing and moving to the vicinity of Yuzhou to see if there was any way to contact Zhao Zongquan in advance.

However, the current Yuzhou is in Xuchang in later generations. With his current level, if he is sent abroad, he will either go to the border, or in several capitals or big cities like Jinling.

He couldn't go to a small place like Yuzhou.

Unless he makes a mistake and is demoted, but then things become a little out of control, and who knows where he will be demoted.

Therefore, although he knew that Bianjing was dangerous, he was still unwilling to leave Bianjing.I just don’t want to lose my ability to follow the dragon.

Conglong's merit is second only to the merit of the founding of the country. In a sense, it is even better than the merit of the founding of the country.

After all, most of the founding generals would be jealous of the emperor, but the ministers from Conglong were different and would become confidants.

"Uncle, what I mean is not to transfer and leave, but to find other excuses to leave Bianjing temporarily and come back when the situation in Bianjing becomes clearer." Ning Zhiguang said.

Yuan Wenshao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he secretly cursed himself for being confused by some of the authorities.

He doesn't have to be transferred before he can leave Bianjing.

He can leave Bianjing temporarily, then find any reason to postpone his return to Bianjing, pay attention to Bianjing's movements, and come back when the time is almost up.

"Sir's words really enlightened me." Yuan Wenshao said with a smile.

Ning Zhiguang said: "Uncle, there is no need to leave in a hurry. If he leaves at this time, King Yong will still doubt whether he has received any instructions from King Yan. We can see if there will be any action from King Yong. Then leave. King Yong will understand that my uncle has not taken refuge with King Yan."

"Sir, you are right." Yuan Wenshao nodded in agreement.

……

"Peach."

"No reason?"

Xiaotao heard someone calling her, and went to see Qi Heng's entourage, Buwei. Just as she was about to go over, she suddenly thought of something, snorted and turned away.

"Xiao Tao, wait for me."

When Buwei saw Xiao Tao about to leave, he quickly chased after him and stopped him.

He waited for many days to wait for Xiao Tao, how could he let her go like this.

"Your young father-in-law is about to marry the county lord, why are you coming to me?" Xiao Tao glared at him and was about to go around him.

"Xiao Tao, this is not the place to talk. How about we change places?" Buwei said.

"You and I have nothing to talk about." Xiao Tao said.

"My young master has his own reasons. I came to you this time because my young master asked me to come." Buwei said.

Xiao Tao hesitated after hearing this and said, "Where to go?"

"There is a tea shop ahead. Come with me." Buwei said.

Xiao Tao hesitated and followed.

Buwei took Xiaotao to a private room in the teahouse, closed the door, took out a letter from his arms, and said, "This is a letter written by my young master. Please take it back to Miss Sixth."

"Why doesn't he talk to my girl himself if he has something to say?" Xiao Tao asked.

Buwei smiled bitterly and said: "My young master has been to the Sheng family many times before, and the six girls have avoided seeing him. Now that the situation is complicated, it is not convenient for my young master to go."

Xiao Tao hesitated and took the letter and said, "I will give the letter to my girl, but I don't know if she can read it or not."

"You tell Miss Six that she must read it. My young master is sincere to her. He has never contradicted the princess and his wife since he was a child. He has done so several times because of Miss Six. He has not spoken to the princess for many days now. "Buwei said.

"Okay, I will bring you what you want. If there is nothing else, I will leave first." Xiao Tao said.

"Xiao Tao, tell Miss Six to read the letter," Buwei warned.

"understood."

Xiao Tao responded and opened the door and walked out.

She walked around the street, bought all the things Minglan told her to buy, and returned to Sheng's house.

All the way back to Mu Cangzhai, he shouted as soon as he entered the courtyard: "Girl, I'm back."

Cui Wei was delivering soup to Ming Lan. Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "Girl, Xiao Tao needs to change her bratty character. It seems that the girl is about to get married now, and the marriage will be decided by then. Xiao Tao will definitely go there as a dowry. When she gets to my uncle's house, she won't have the right temperament."

"I don't know how many times I've talked about her, but I don't think she can change it." Minglan said with a smile.

"Girl, what are you saying that you can't change?" Xiao Tao walked into the room and asked with some confusion when she heard Minglan saying that she couldn't change.

"It's nothing. One piece of my embroidery was wrong. Have you bought all the threads I asked you to buy?" Minglan asked.

"It's all here."

Xiaotao said as she put the cloth bag she was holding on the table and winked at Minglan.

Minglan looked through the threads calmly and said, "Well, it's indeed all here. With your carelessness, it's rare that you bought it right."

"Girl, although Xiao Tao is usually not clever, she still remembers everything the girl told her." Cui said with a smile.

"Well, Cui Wei is right." Minglan nodded with a smile and said, "Cui Wei, I'm a little hungry. Go get me some snacks."

"Yes." Cuiwei responded, carrying the tray and going out.

Xiaotao watched Cuiwei walk away, closed the door, then took out the letter and said, "Girl, this is not for me. It is said to be a letter written by my young father-in-law."

Minglan saw Xin's expression change and said, "If someone finds out about this, it will be a trivial matter to damage my reputation, but you will be beaten to death."

"Hehe." Xiao Tao said with a smile: "Girl, I'm careful, I won't be discovered. I don't mean that the young master was forced, he has no intention of marrying the county lord."

Minglan was startled when she heard this and murmured: "What does it matter whether it is voluntary or not?"

Qi Heng can play with the Jiacheng County Lord under the pressure of his parents, and he can marry the Jiacheng County Lord under the pressure of his parents.

She doesn't blame Qi Heng, she can't let Qi Heng be disobedient and unfilial for her sake.

Precisely because she knew it was impossible for the two of them, she was obviously moved, but she kept restraining herself.

Minglan came to her senses and wanted to burn the letter.

"Girl, what are you doing?"

Xiao Tao quickly snatched the letter and said, "This is what I risked my life to bring back. The girl has to burn it anyway, so why not burn it after reading it."
