Chapter 222 Yuzhou Academy (1)

The rain finally stopped when it rang.Ning Shuo returned to Ningguo Mansion calmly, and was about to go to Yanling to explain the matter between Mrs. Tangxi and his father, when he saw that his mother's close wife was already waiting at the door, and said, "Madam said, please come back with the third young master." Be sure to go there later."

Seeing her serious face, Ning Shuo thought that his mother had something important to do, so he walked over, hurriedly lifted up his robe and sat down, and asked, "Mom, what happened?"

Sitting at the head with her face upright, Li Shi got angry thinking about what Xixi told her about last night.She didn't speak, just handed him a letter first, Ning Shuo looked at it and found that it was written by Yan Ling's father.It said that they had received the letter sent by their mother years ago, and now they were rushing to Kyoto.Therefore, they also knew that Yan Ling and him fell in love with each other.

The couple naturally agreed.First they praised him, and then they became tougher, saying that Yanling's marriage had a twists and turns, and they were also very worried. Although they often communicated with each other this year, they didn't know the details of the matter, so before they came, the marriage should not be rushed Proclaim it to the public.When they arrived in Kyoto, they talked to Yanling. If the two children were not suitable, they would take Yanling back to Lingnan. At that time, they could either stay at home to recruit a husband, or just not marry and stay at home as a girl for the rest of their lives.

There were three or four letters in the following letters, with only one meaning: Yanling's marriage should not be subject to twists and turns.

After reading it, Ning Shuo looked at his mother's upright face, and knew that it was his mother and Father Sheng beating him.His heart can be honest between heaven and earth, and he is worthy of the banquet bell, so he relaxed and said: "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely live up to the banquet bell, and there will definitely be no twists and turns in this matter."

Li Shi opened her eyelids to look at him, took a sip from her teacup, and said, "Heh, heh."

Ning Shuo didn't have a mother since he was a child, and he never had any dealings with female elders, but now that Li Shi said something like this, he knew that he must have done something wrong, so he didn't dare to sit down, and quickly stood up, " Mother, but what did the son do wrong?"

Mrs. Li squinted at him and saw that he looked puzzled, it was exactly the same as when she asked her second son if that bastard wanted to take a concubine, and when he agreed, she became furious and then he was puzzled.

Three fathers and sons, all of the same kind!

Mrs. Li knocked on the table and said sarcastically, "I want you to know that the banquet bell is not up to you. Even if she likes you now, when her father, brother and aunt come, she will know you with the protection of her family." It's not good for her at all, so it's not impossible for the whole family to return to Lingnan."

Ning Shuo understood, it was a big mistake he made.Busy with his father's affairs these two days, thinking about his father's career, he did neglect his family and Yanling, but after thinking about it, he didn't know what he did wrong.

So he asked tentatively, "Maybe mother express it?"

Li Shi: "You reflect on yourself!"

She said bitterly: "How wonderful the banquet bell is, you don't know how to cherish it."

Ning Shuo said that he will cherish it right away, and he will not dare in the future.Only then did Li nodded, and then asked about his affairs outside, "How is the progress? I also know that you have worked hard. You men are born to only know how to chase fame and fortune, and you are full of self-aspirations, but a woman's life is after all her husband. My son, you can't see the world outside at all, if you only know the sky outside, then what will she do in this secluded house?"

Ning Shuo: "Yes, mother, it's all my fault."

He turned and went out, wondering what he had done wrong all the way.Just happened to meet Miss Wu coming out, so he pulled her hesitantly and asked, "What happened to Yanling? Mother is annoyed me today."

The fifth girl talked about other things, not daring to say that it was her own slander, but said: "Then the third brother should treat Yanling better."

Ning Shuo nodded, "I'll go right away."

So when he saw Yan Ling, he didn't mention anything about his family, but said: "I know that I have done something wrong, and I will never dare to do it in the future. Don't be angry."

Feast Bell: "...Huh?"

She is not angry.

She looked confused, "Did you do something wrong?"

Then stood up in panic, "Did you go to drink flower wine without telling me!"

Ning Shuo immediately said, "It never happened before!"

Sheng Yanling looked over sharply, "I've wanted to say it for a long time——Did you have a good friend before and didn't explain it?"

Ning Shuo: "It's never happened before."

Sheng Yanling: "Then you touched another girl's hand?"

She flicked her face, "Tell me, what did you do!"

Ning Shuo then explained, "It's the mother. My mother just asked me to come over and give me a scolding, saying that I treated you badly."

Sheng Yanling breathed a sigh of relief, "Is that so—"

Then after thinking about it, he laughed, "Sister Fifth told my aunt."

Then he told what happened last night, "Fifth sister misunderstood."

Ning Shuo also regretted it, "It's true that I was wrong, I should have sent someone back to tell you, so that you don't have to wait for me."

Yan Yanling shook her head, walked over to stand closer to him, and said: "I think, this is the meaning of two people becoming a husband and wife. I will be there when you are in trouble, and I will be there when I am in trouble. The so-called Husband and wife stay together, as it should be.”

Ning Shuo's eyes were filled with tenderness, and he said, "It's God's gift to me to meet you, my mother and Duke Ning's mansion."

He seemed to be relieved and said: "Whenever I feel out of breath, my mother scolds me, you talk to me, Xixi mutters a few words, and I feel relieved."

Very reassuring.

Then he told her about his father and Mrs. Tangxi.

"My lord said, Mrs. Tangxi said that my father knew that the 100 million taels of silver was in Xiaoxi makeup. I don't believe it."

Sheng Yanling frowned, "But such a person is so magnificent, there is no need to lie."

After listening to the story of the older generation, she admired Mrs. Tangxi wholeheartedly, "There are so many great righteousness in the world, and many men are taught to bear the burden of fame, but she has a share of it. It is really admirable."

She wandered around the room, "If what she said is true, then either she was tricked, or she acquiesced with the master."

If it's the latter, then the third brother will be too miserable.

He was abandoned by his father, and until the moment of his death, he thought it was a dispute between the crown prince and the king of Jin, a struggle for power in the capital, and he didn't know the real truth.

She felt sad, and looked at Ning Shuo: "Third Brother, how much insight can you have into the heart of the Grand Tutor?"

This question is extremely sharp.Ning Shuo smiled wryly, Yan Ling is really smart, it's only been a few days, and he already knows to ask him this question.

He sighed, "In the past, I dared to say eight or nine points, because we are wholeheartedly for the prince, and we do the same things."

"Now, I only dare to say three or four points, because my father also hid his true face in five or six points in front of me."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the banquet bell and said, "At this moment, I also realized that in the past 21 years, I accounted for three points of stupidity. In the four years of Lingnan, I accounted for another three points of resentment, and the remaining four points were stubborn. I have always only based myself on the capital and the court, the crown prince and the king of Jin, focusing on the front, ignoring a very important thing."

Sheng Yanling became nervous, "Is this matter enough for Taifu Sui to hide from you...and abandon you?"

Ning Shuo: "Yes."

He said firmly, "You know that your father is from Muzhou, right?"

Sheng Yanling nodded: "Understood."

Ning Shuo: "Muzhou, Wanzhou, Yuzhou, Suzhou—even Lianzhou, Wuzhou, Xinzhou, etc. in the south, the only sacred place in the hearts of all students is Yuzhou Academy."

"Father also studied there, or in other words, half of the officials in this capital, Jiangnan, come from Yuzhou Academy."

"The ancestral house of Duke Ningguo's mansion is, and so is the mansion of Zhenguo Duke. Even Mr. Buyuchuan has studied in Yuzhou Academy."

Yan Yanling gasped, "Is that much?"

She belatedly said, "Yes, in Lingnan, everyone yearns for Yuzhou Academy."
