Chapter 37
Xia Chixiao thanked him and left.

When he walked away, Xia Haicheng waved his hand, and the Qi family left wisely.

Xia Haicheng said: "Your Highness, please move to the study!"

The two of them entered the study, and there were people from Xia Haicheng and Shang Jianye guarding the outside.

Shang Jianye said slowly: "What's going on?"

Xia Haicheng told what happened before and sighed: "Your Highness, it's because I'm not strict in running the family..."

Shang Jianye stopped him and said: "There's no need to say that, uncle. My cousin has been in the countryside for the past 22 years, in the army, and he is straightforward. He knows how to march and form formations, and the art of war, but he doesn't know how to do things in the capital. I don’t know the principles of doing things, and I don’t know the stakes involved!”

"It didn't matter if I didn't understand before, but now, that country woman is about to be taken into the capital, and that traitor even said that she is going to be taken into the government!" Xia Haicheng's expression was not good.

Shang Jianye chuckled lightly and said: "Uncle, didn't I remind you before that that woman can't enter the capital? How come she can enter the capital now? What went wrong in the middle?"

Xia Haicheng was speechless.

As early as when Xia Chixiao first said that he had married a wife in the countryside and had sent someone to pick her up, he sent an urgent letter to his wife's brother Qi Chengping.

Qi Chengping is reliable in his work, why would he let someone come to Beijing?
He whispered: "It was my negligence!"

"Hasn't anyone come to Beijing yet?" Shang Jianye said again leisurely.

Xia Haicheng was startled, then his eyes lit up. Xia Chixiao said that he would come to Beijing soon, but he hadn't come to Beijing yet, so he did still have a chance.

"Although a woman won't stir up any trouble, it's better not to cause trouble!"

Shang Jianye said slowly: "Although my father has temporarily handed over the military power to Xia Chixiao and is idle in the capital, my father still attaches great importance to capable and young generals. A few days ago, he even mentioned Xia Chixiao. I guess not. In the future, he will be called to the court and assigned duties."

Xia Haicheng was very happy.

Isn't the purpose of recognizing this son back just to make Marquis Li Yang reach a higher level?
If Xia Chixiao takes over the military power again, or is favored by the emperor, it will be a great help to the eldest prince in the future.

Shang Jianye just stopped talking, and the uncle and nephew let the matter go and started talking about other things.

Xia Chixiao strode away, his brows slightly furrowed on his handsome young face.

He knew it wouldn't go well, but he didn't expect it to be so bad. Could it be that he really had to let his wife and grandmother live in the Sanjin Mansion first?

His wife cannot enter the house and can only be raised outside.

This is his incompetence!
Today, the death of his adoptive father is still a mystery. After arriving in the capital, he ostensibly interacted with the second-generation officials, but in fact he has been secretly investigating, but there is no clue at all. Could it be that Zhixiang can only investigate in the north?
For the first time, Xia Chixiao felt that the world in the capital was too narrow and too depressing. It was far from as simple and broad as the northern border!
The adoptive father has been dead for more than three years, and a lot of evidence may have been annihilated or destroyed. It is difficult to investigate, but he will not give up!
He will also take his wife by his side, and he will let her stay by his side upright and face the world calmly!Rather than hiding it and being prevented from appearing in front of others!
Chu Nanning felt that she was being targeted.

Today, as soon as she came out of Prince Chi's Mansion, she went to Yishan Hall.

Since you have done something, you must do it well.

She doesn't have her own manpower yet, so Jin Feng is the only one in Yishantang now, and the others are hired people. It is necessary to keep an eye on him more.

When they were approaching Yishan Hall, Chu Nanning sent the driver away first.

Jin Hai was asked to drive the carriage at home for the old lady. She usually hired a carriage when she went out.

Yishantang chose a large, slightly dilapidated courtyard here. Outside the courtyard, there was a porridge shed on the left, a table on the right, and a doctor sitting there.

Jin Feng is responsible for all matters. He is from Taifu Ye's house and is very smart and capable.

Seeing that everything was in order here, Chu Nanning was very satisfied. It was at this time that she felt that she was being watched.

Chu Nanning did not go to see Jin Feng.

After realizing she was being watched, she left.Sure enough, the seemingly absent gaze on her body proved that she was not overthinking it.

She quickened her pace and walked into an alley.

Following her sudden news, the person falling behind her really showed his weakness.

Several people came out from different directions, looked at each other, and asked: "Where are the people?"

Naturally, no one could answer, but there was a clever person who pointed in the direction of the alley and said, "You're not going here, are you?"

Someone spat: "Are you stupid? That's a dead end!"

Some people disagreed and said, "That's not certain. Didn't they say that not long after she arrived in the capital, we know that this is a dead end alley, but she may not know that!"

"Then try chasing after him!"

"Let's go!" Someone made the decision, and all five people rushed into the alley.

At this time, a laid-back man looked at those people, frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then followed them.

Chu Nanning heard the footsteps behind her and curled her lips. She didn't know which little gutter rat it was. Did he have an idea for her?

Then she'll see who can't think of it!

She continued to walk in.

As we walked, there was no way ahead.

Chu Nanning raised her eyebrows, then let’s do it here!
She stopped and turned around.

The five people had already chased into the alley, turned a corner, and saw Chu Nanning, and they were immediately overjoyed.This place is great. They originally thought about finding an opportunity to take this girl to a secluded place. But now that she is not discerning, it saves them the trouble.

Thinking of what the patron asked them to do, as well as the slim figure and beautiful appearance of the woman in front of them, they felt hot.

After chasing him to the end of the alley, he saw Chu Nanning standing there. Several people looked at each other with a lewd smile unconsciously on their faces.

This little lady is so beautiful. When they received the money from the customer, they just thought it was an ordinary business. Now seeing this little lady, they felt that even if they didn't give the money, they would rush to do it!

Because he went to the county prince's palace, Chu Nanning naturally did not change his appearance, nor did he wear the human skin mask.

Therefore, these people came for her.

She arrived in the capital with a lot of plans, and there were only a few days left in two months. Who was going to deal with her, there was almost no need to guess.

She wasn't prepared to guess. No matter who it was, he had a mouth and just asked.

When she grew up, there was nothing she couldn't ask.

The five people were dressed in ordinary clothes and looked ordinary, but the malice in their eyes was undisguised, and two of them even drooled at Chu Nanning.

These are some hooligans.

Chu Nanning said: "Who sent you?"

The leader was 25 or [-] years old, with a slender face and shrewd eyes. He smiled and said: "Little lady, it doesn't matter who sent us. You just need to know that next, we will give you happiness and let you know how to be a good person." It would be great fun!”

 Thank you to Yuluojiang North and South Piaoxue for the reward of 500 starting coins!Thank you!
