Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 757: Tang Shui Returns to Beijing

King Duan chased King Huai like a mad dog and bit him hard. King Huai must have had a big head recently.

But this had nothing to do with Tang Ning. After all, Duan Wang didn't bite him. If Duan Wang really had an idea for him, he wouldn't mind knocking out all the teeth in his mouth.

In addition to the affairs of Shangshu Province, he is also busy with other things these days.

The caravan going to the grassland had to be organized as soon as possible. The Tang family had fallen from being a high-ranking wealthy family to this. Tang Ning had ravaged them in all aspects, both materially and spiritually, and the hatred in her heart was gone.

It's time for him to plan his own way out.

After all, he can't stay in the Chen Kingdom to help Emperor Chen work. Lanlan is still waiting for him in the Chu Kingdom, and Wanyanyan is still waiting for him to go to the grassland to fulfill the agreement. He is pacifying the south of the Yangtze River and the northwest, so he is helping Emperor Chen do the work. After so many things, kidnapping one of his daughters is not too much, right?

It had been quite a while since he came back from the grassland, and it was early October in a blink of an eye.

One night in mid-October, before the curfew, a carriage slowly stopped in front of Tang's house.

Tang Shui helped Tang Yu get out of the carriage, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said, "I'm finally back."

Tangning had already planned to go to bed. When she heard that they were returning to Beijing, she put on her clothes again, walked out, looked at the two figures in the hall, and said with a smile, "Mom, you are back."

Tang Yu came over, looked at him, and said distressedly: "Why are you thinner than before? You must have suffered a lot on the grassland, right?"

"No..." Tangning smiled and changed the subject: "Are you hungry? Do you want me to make some midnight snacks?"

"No need." Tang Shui shook his head and said, "There will be a curfew soon. It's getting late. I'll go home first..."

"Well..." Tangning looked at her and said awkwardly, "It's too late now, why don't we just rest here tonight."

Tang Shui shook his head and said: "There are many people during the day, but it is more convenient at night."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked outside.

Tangning stretched out her hand to stop her: "Wait a minute."

Tang Shui turned around and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"You don't have to go back." Tangning looked at her and said, "The Tang family is gone."

Tang Shui frowned at him and asked, "What?"

Tang Ning explained: "During the days when you left Beijing, a small accident happened to the Tang family. Tang Qi and Tang Huai were dismissed from their posts, but your father was not affected at all. In addition, the Tang family's old residence was also raided by the imperial court, so You can’t go back tonight.”

Tang Shui looked at him directly: "Little accident?"

Tangning thought for a while and added: "It's a little bit bigger than a small accident. It's considered a medium accident..."

Whether it was a small accident or a moderate accident, the Tang family's old residence now belonged to the court and not to the Tang family, so Tang Shui naturally could not go back.

Sooner or later, they would know what happened to the Tang family, so it would be better for Tangning to tell them herself.

In the room, Tang Yu looked at him and said, "Just do what you think you should do, don't worry about us."

Tangning nodded and said, "You guys should rest early, I'm going back."

Tang Ning walked out of the room and walked to the courtyard. Tang Shui walked out of the room and said, "Sooner or later, the Tang family will rise again. How will you gain a foothold in the capital by then?"

Tangning turned around, smiled, and asked, "Who said I want to establish myself in the capital?"

Tang Shui was stunned and asked, "You, you want to leave the capital?"

Tangning did not answer the question and continued, "Why do you think the Tang family will rise again?"

"Wait until King Duan..."

"Will that position definitely belong to King Duan?"

Tang Shui was stunned and looked at him for a long time before saying, "You, you mean..."

"Women should not have to worry about men's affairs." Tangning smiled and said, "Go back and rest early."

Watching Tang Ning walk out of the yard, Tang Shui stood there, stunned for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "You actually talked to your cousin like that!"

Capital West District.

Just after dawn, there was a knock on the door of a house facing the street.

Tang Jing opened the door and saw the figure standing outside, and said in surprise: "Shui'er, when did you come back?"

"Last night." Tang Shui walked into the house and asked, "Where is my mother?"

A woman walked out of the room, saw her, and said in surprise: "Shui'er is back, how is it? Is Jiangnan fun?"

Tang Shui nodded and said, "It's okay."

Tang Jing stepped forward and asked doubtfully: "How did you know we moved here?"

Tang Shui said: "I originally went home, but when I saw that my home was sealed off, I asked someone to inquire and found out that you had moved here. What happened?"

The woman sighed and said, "A lot of things happened in Beijing during your absence..."

Tang Shui had already heard Tang Ning talk about what happened in the Tang family last night, but he couldn't tell her where she spent the night last night. After listening to what the woman said, she was silent for a while and then said, "This is all." It was my uncle’s fault, no one else is to blame.”

"Let's not talk about this anymore." Tang Jing waved his hand and said, "The old house is gone, where will you stay tonight?"

Tang Shui looked at the courtyard and said, "Of course I live at home..."

Tang Jing looked slightly embarrassed and said, "As you can see, this house is not big. It has only one bedroom and no place for you to live..."

Tang Shui was stunned and asked, "Didn't you think of me when you bought the house?"

Tang Jing said embarrassedly, "When you were not here, we forgot... Besides, we didn't have enough money to buy a bigger house..."

Tang Shui knew that his parents never took money from the Tang family, and only relied on his annual salary, but even so, he was still angry in his heart. He looked at them with shame and said, "You disappoint me so much..."

...

In Anyang Princess's Mansion, Anyang Princess looked at her, laughing so hard that she couldn't close her mouth, panting and said, "So, so you bought the house next to them yourself..."

She put her hand on Tang Shui's shoulder and smiled, "You will forget such things. Are you their biological child... Oh, yes, you are not their biological child..."

The two have been good friends since childhood, and they can talk about everything. It's harmless to make some jokes like this on weekdays.

"Stop laughing." Tang Shui pulled her face and said, "Who knew that we just went to Jiangnan, and such a thing happened in Beijing..." Princess Anyang's smile faded, and she said, "Speaking of this, your cousin is too cruel, that's his uncle..." Tang Shui looked at her dissatisfiedly and said, "Is there an uncle who wants to take his nephew's life again and again?" Princess Anyang looked at him and said in surprise, "Have you forgotten that you are a member of the Tang family? He has made your Tang family like this, and you actually stand on his side." Tang Shui glanced at her and said, "I stand on the side of reason." Princess Anyang looked at her, shook her head, and said, "You don't know how cruel his methods are. The Tang family moved to After the West District, he actually bought a whole street of shops in the West District, and hung their Tangrenzhai signs on all of them. I heard that after the Tang family moved there, the door has never been opened..."

A mischievous expression appeared on her face, and she said, "But he is still not cruel enough. If it were me, I would buy the Tang family's old house and use it to raise pigs, and I would be so angry that they would die!"

Tang Shui glanced at her and said, "Don't you think he is cruel?"

Princess Anyang curled her lips and said, "A real man should repay grievances and revenges, and this is what a gentleman does."

Tang Shui asked, "So you think he is a gentleman?"

"Puh!" Princess Anyang spat secretly and said, "He is a pervert!"

...

Ministry of Revenue.

The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of the national finances. The finances here include not only the silver in the treasury, but also any physical property belonging to the country.

"Lord Tang wants to buy the Tang family's old house?" Minister of Revenue Qian Shuo looked at Tang Ning and said in surprise: "Don't you have a mansion in Beijing? What do you want the Tang family's old house for?"

Tang Ning looked at him and said calmly: "Raising pigs."
