Chapter 73 The Mansion Moves to the Imperial City
"By heaven's blessing, the emperor's edict said that because of Ningfu's contribution to disaster relief... I am hereby conferred the title of Emperor Merchant, and I will follow King Ling to the capital in the near future, hereby." The high-pitched voice outside the courtyard lingered over the main courtyard of Ningfu for a long time, making the whole Ningfu The people in the government couldn't recover for a while.

"Ning Guo'an, why don't you come to receive the order soon?" The father-in-law who announced the order stared with some dissatisfaction.

Ning Guoan came back to his senses abruptly, and tremblingly stepped forward to receive the order. Even though he tried his best to restrain himself, the corners of his mouth twitched with excitement couldn't stop no matter what. "Caomin thank the emperor for his grace, long live my emperor."

An unexpected imperial decree completely broke the life in Ning Mansion, which was originally unsettled but also free from turbulent waves.

Everyone, except Ning Erlan, was immersed in the boundless joy of the imperial decree.

"That's great, Royal Merchant, that's Royal Merchant!" Ning Guoan said incoherently. This result was something he never dreamed of. In his opinion, the highest honor of a merchant is to become an Imperial Merchant. There is still such an opportunity in his lifetime.

"Father, I just said that the second prince will definitely not treat us badly. This imperial edict must have been requested by the second prince for us." Ning Shuangyu couldn't hide the pride on her face. In her opinion, the Ning family can Becoming an imperial merchant is all due to her.

"What are you still doing here in a daze? Hurry up, hurry up and pack up, and prepare to go to the imperial city with King Ling." The second prince is still in Mingcheng now, but he knows that Wei Lingxiao will return to Beijing in two days. With King Ling protecting them, they don't have to worry about any loss of their belongings.

Everyone returned to their yard in twos and threes. Even though they were busy, the smiles on their faces still did not fade away.

You must know that the Imperial City is the symbol of the top wealth and honor in the Great Qin Dynasty. The people of Ning Mansion never dreamed that they would be able to settle there with a high status in the future. Even ordinary servants were overjoyed.That's a place where noble people gather, maybe...

"It's really great, miss, we can go to the imperial city right away. I never dreamed that I could go to the imperial city. That's a place where noble people can stay." Xinchen said happily while packing her things with.

With a slight smile on her face, Ning Erlan nodded absently.This decree came a bit suddenly, and she was not prepared for many things. It seemed that her plan was about to change.

Although the Ning Mansion has put in a lot of effort, the emperor's gift is indeed a bit heavier, the emperor's business, this is not something that can be done if you want to.The last words Wei Lingxiao said that day are still ringing in his ears, could it be him?
"Miss, aren't you happy that we can go to the imperial city?" Looking at Ning Erlan who was not looking very happy, Xinchen asked curiously.

Ning Erlan smiled. "It's just a change of house and a piece of land."

Xinchen felt a little helpless, sometimes her daughter really spoke like a disillusioned master.

Moving a house is not an easy task. It stands to reason that you have to check Feng Shui first.But an imperial decree from the emperor is more effective than any Feng Shui!

Ning Guoan sent people to the imperial city to rent a modest house in advance, specifically, he would wait until the imperial city to make plans.

Ning Erlan also went out of the house to discuss the next step with Li Si, Wan Laoqi and others.

She asked Wan Laoqi to hand over the things here to a trusted brother, leaving a small half of them, and the rest went to the imperial city with her.She believes that developing her power in the imperial city is more important than in Shancheng.

The medicine field was handed over by Li Si to a trustworthy person in Zhuangzi to manage it. Almost all the medicinal materials stored in the medicine field were used to treat the plague, and there were not many left. The medicinal materials in the field also began to grow. This batch of medicinal materials will definitely be able to Sell ​​for a lot of money.

Two days later, everyone in the Ning Mansion had almost packed their things, and Ning Guoan also explained the business here. What made him even more happy was that Ning Desheng was also released and went to the imperial city with everyone.

Looking at Ning Desheng, who had lost a lot of weight, the old lady's eyes turned red.But it's good to come out, from now on they will be powerful and powerful in the imperial city, and I'm afraid they won't be able to deal with Mo Heng, who looks down on people!
Wei Lingxiao knew the imperial decree, and as soon as he walked out of the gate of the Ning Mansion, he saw the carriages of the Ning Mansion lined up for as long as a street.

"See King Ling, the grassroots are all ready and waiting for the prince to leave at any time." Ning Guoan stepped forward with a smile on his face. Although his attitude was respectful, he was not as humble as he was at the beginning. On the contrary, he looked like a villain.

Wei Lingxiao nodded indifferently, quickly got on his horse, grabbed the horse's belly, and walked to the front of the team.

Although it was just dawn, both sides of the street were already full of people watching the excitement.Everyone looked curiously at the Ning family behind King Ling, and they never thought that the Ning family would become the imperial merchant bestowed by the emperor!

The second prince who is in Mingcheng will also leave for the imperial city in two days.

Along the way, more than 5000 people marched out of the gate of Shancheng.

This was Ning Erlan's first time traveling far since time travel. She gently lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the gradually deserted scenery outside the window. "Sister, will we live in the imperial city and never come back?" Xiao Caixin, who had not been able to see her sister for a long time, looked at Ning Erlan with big round eyes and asked. Originally, she was going to talk to the old lady. It was a carload, but she asked the old lady to let her come with Ning Erlan.

Hearing this, Ning Erlan lowered the car curtain, and looked at her younger sister who was a little wider than before with a soft smile in her eyes. "Does Caixin want to stay here?"

Xiao Caixin turned her head to think for a while, and after looking at Ning Erlan's expression, she shook her head lightly and said, "Caixin will go wherever sister and mother are."

"Caixin is becoming more and more sensible." The old lady still has a sense of proportion. Although she does not treat Xiao Caixin with more care than Ning Shaoliang's male heir, she will not treat her too badly, but she plans to take Caixin back when she arrives in the imperial city. By her side, Wen's health has improved a lot during this time, which she has mentioned to herself many times.

The carriage swayed, and Ning Erlan, who had fallen asleep unknowingly, clearly sensed the change in the weather outside and woke up with a start.The wind was getting stronger, and the curtain of the carriage was lifted several times.Seeing this, Xinyue hurriedly stepped forward and closed the curtain.

It is now June, and the weather in June is very changeable. Before they went out in the morning, the day was still blue and blue. After walking for half a day, the dark clouds gradually covered the sun, and the sky darkened. It was also getting colder, Wei Lingxiao looked at the sky and knew that it was going to rain, so he asked the guards and the coachman to drive the car to an abandoned temple not far away to avoid the rain, so as to prevent people and things from getting wet.

The team entered the ruined temple before the heavy rain fell.This dilapidated temple is much larger than it looks from the outside. There are four side halls on both sides of the main temple, which are not small. It is possible to squeeze all of them into it.

Wei Lingxiao casually swept across the ruined temple, and sat down under the statue.

The general of the team arranged for the soldiers to stand guard and rest.Walking in the rain is easy to get sick, so try not to let their people get caught in the rain.

The ruined temple was probably cleaned up by someone, so it didn't look so messy.However, this temple has been abandoned for a long time, spider webs can still be seen everywhere, and the dust is very thick. As soon as you enter the temple, you can smell very heavy dust and a very damp musty smell in the air.The weather here is mostly rainy these days, probably because the original wooden buildings in the temple were damp.

Because of the dark sky, although the temple was lit with lights and a fire was lit, it still gave people a very dark feeling.Originally, Ning Erlan thought that the temple was a gloomy place. She raised her head and looked carefully at the dusty altar. She widened her eyes and looked at the dilapidated statue in front of her, and the darkness behind the statue that could not be illuminated. There is no place that is not scary, the whole scene is just a scene of a ghost movie.

At this time, the rain has already started to fall, but there are not so many big and small grains falling down for a while.The outside air was slightly blown into the nostrils, and the smell of damp earth was very strong, but the smell was not unpleasant.

The humid air was permeating everywhere, and gradually the rain fell more and more, and it became more and more urgent. Looking at the rain outside the window, Ning Erlan somewhat felt familiar with the long-lost past and old dreams. All the joys and disappointments in modern times seem to be getting farther and farther away. When I think about it, the corners of my eyes will be slightly moist, and my heart will not be as impetuous as before. Gradually blend into this world, not resignation and helplessness, but sincerity Take this as your own place to live, and don't be so wandering and at a loss.

"Just rest in the temple tonight, and leave early tomorrow morning." Wei Lingxiao, who was sitting under the statue, ordered with a voice containing internal strength.

As soon as the words fell, the temple once again returned to calm, only the sound of crackling firewood was heard.

The journey during the day was exhausting, and everyone fell asleep from sleepiness.

Maybe it was too early, or she slept too much in the carriage during the day, Ning Erlan half-closed her eyes and wanted to find a sip of water, but when she suddenly found a very fast silver light flashing in front of her eyes.

The rain outside the temple still had no tendency to stop, and the sound of crackling rain confused Ning Erlan's audition.

Just when she was about to get up to check, she felt a cold wind blowing in.Ning Erlan's eyes shrank, and her whole body became tense.

"Suddenly..." Suddenly, the gate of the temple was blown open by a strong wind, and the burning torches were blown out by the wind mixed with rain, and the inside of the temple became extremely dark in an instant.

Ning Erlan stood up, came to Wen Shi and Xiao Caixin to protect the two who were still asleep.

In the darkness, I could only feel countless silver lights flickering and moving towards them quickly.

"Ah..." There was a short exclamation followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

"There are assassins, protect King Ling!" The night guard noticed something unusual and yelled suddenly, and the people in the temple were awakened.

"Ah... Assassins, assassins, where are assassins..."

"Ah... ah, help, don't kill..."

The people who reacted were in a mess in an instant, all the women and servants in the inner house had never seen any big scene of life and death, and they shouted in horror.

"If you want to go to the imperial city, I will end your spring and autumn dream here tonight, kill!" The cold voice of the man in black came from not far away.

Ning Erlan felt the rain on her face, looked up and found that these people came in from the roof behind the statue, no wonder the guards outside didn't notice.

The murderous voice of the man in black made the already frightened people in Ningfu even more frightened.

"King Ling, help me..."
