Raise a wolf cub to be a minister

Chapter 535, Chapter 535

Saying that, Nan Ling stepped forward and hugged Nan Jin, "Don't be afraid, child, you have a father, and your father will take care of you and take good care of you. Don't worry about anything, just do what you want."

He may not be able to live by himself, but even so, he must fight for a way out for his wife and daughter.

"Father." Nan Jin hugged Nan Ling with her backhand.

Nan Ling patted Nan Jin on the back, "Think about what Dad said, when to think about it and when to tell Dad, Dad will always put your wishes first."

"Ah."

……

Gu Xiuran wanted to bring 1000 troops back, and Nanling brought [-] Nanjia troops, so the number of soldiers on the return trip was [-].

There are still 20 days until the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there are more than a few mistakes when I return to Kyoto. As long as there is not too much delay, I can catch up with the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Nan Jin wanted to ride a horse, but neither Nan Ling nor Gu Xiuran agreed, and they were not in a hurry to do something, of course they wanted to take a carriage, and it wasn't always possible to stay in an inn along the way. In the wild, this time shows the benefits of the carriage.

Today, the wind is sunny and sunny.

Watched by Liu Kangsheng, the prefect Chi Bingzheng, and the people of Youzhou, Nan Jin, Nan Ling, and Gu Xiuran embarked on the journey back to Beijing.

Food was prepared when they left Youzhou, so in the first few days, the entire team was almost on the road, stopping wherever they arrived at night to rest.

After almost three or four days, the group had almost enough food and water. On this sunset evening, the group stayed in Quanzhou.

Because it was His Majesty's imperial decree to call back to Kyoto, which was regarded as an official business, so after entering Quanzhou, the group went directly to the post house for officials who came and went.

Nan Ling is the general of Zhenguo, Nan Jin is the princess of Nanyang, Gu Xiuran is the young general, Nan Jin and Gu Xiuran are the heroes of the water bandits, once they stay overnight, the prefect of Quanzhou will come to socialize as soon as possible, that is All kinds of enthusiasm.

Reaching out and not slapping people with smiling faces is indispensable in official circles, especially when people have come to invite them enthusiastically.

Nan Ling and Gu Xiuran ordered their subordinates to replenish food and water for the journey. After taking a rest, they took Nan Jin to the Quanzhou mansion to attend the banquet hosted by Quanzhou prefect Wang Xinrong.

Although it is a magistrate, they are all local officials, and they are not comparable to the officials of Kyoto in any case. Moreover, the magistrate is divided into places.

Since then, there are very few chances for officials in Kyoto to pass by, and they are still young and promising generals, so no one will have a crooked mind.

If my daughter climbed up, even if she couldn't go to the capital to be an official, she would get a capable son-in-law, that would be great.

Especially after meeting Gu Xiuran, Wang Xinrong was so satisfied. Not only was he young and promising, he was also handsome. He was like a son-in-law who couldn't be found with a lantern.

With such a mood, Wang Xinrong held a very sumptuous banquet.

Seeing Gu Xiuran and the others coming, he couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear, and immediately called out his wife and daughter to accompany him. With Nan Jin, a female relative, calling out was not only unobtrusive, but also very polite.

It is normal for an official to bring his family members to accompany him. None of them thought it was wrong. After all, Nan Jin is a woman.

After refusing each other, everyone sat down.

Wang Xinrong sat on the top seat as the host, Nan Ling and Gu Xiuran sat on the same side, Nan Jin was arranged on the opposite side, and Wang Xinrong's female relatives sat on the side as companions.

Wang Xinrong's female family members include Mrs. Wang and two young ladies of the Wang family. These two young ladies of the Wang family looked rather shy. Nan Jin didn't pay much attention to this. She simply went through the motions. After all, it was just a short-term coping, and she left tomorrow. .

After Wang Xinrong made an opening remark, he let the food be served, and then let people perform the singing and dancing.

Mrs. Wang entertained Nan Jin on the side.

"Princess, this is the first time we meet, I offer tea instead of wine to toast the princess."

"Wang Qian, Wang Yan toasted the princess with tea instead of wine." Mrs. Wang's two daughters followed Mrs. Wang to offer tea to Nan Jin.

Nan Jin looked at a cup of tea and a pot of wine in front of her, and finally poured a cup of tea for Mrs. Wang and the others, and drank it all in one gulp.

After drinking, he didn't want to say anything more, so he ate there, looking a little indifferent.

In fact, it's not indifferent. After all, she's not familiar with her. She's just a passer-by. She's the princess, and the other party is just a magistrate's wife and miss. She really doesn't need to have any interaction with them. Everything is just a scene.

Mrs. Wang and the two Ms. Wang didn't think there was anything wrong. After all, Nan Jin is the princess, and they are just the little magistrate's wife and miss. It's an honor to be able to talk, and their purpose tonight is not at all On Nan Jin.

Gu Xiuran, who was sitting opposite, had been paying attention to this side. Seeing that Nan Jin drank tea and did not touch wine, he was relieved. It was really difficult for Nan Jin to resist after drinking.

As for him and Nan Jin, since he asked General Zhen Guo to marry him that day, there was no other communication between them except simple communication, not to mention any physical contact.

Since Gu Xiuran dared to do that, he was prepared to be ignored.

Speaking of it, it's not that Nan Jin ignored him, she hesitated to speak to him several times, as if she wanted to say something, but couldn't say it.

He could probably guess what it was, probably the reason why she would not marry him until two years later.

So he can't rush, can't force her, can only wait slowly.

Fortunately, people can still see it every day.

Seeing that Nan Jin wasn't drinking, he diverted his attention to Wang Xinrong.

Mrs. Wang also tried her best to find a topic to chat with Nan Jin, even though Nan Jin only politely hummed twice as an answer.

Finally, the singing and dancing ended, and Wang Xinrong's conversation shifted.

"Today, I was fortunate enough to have General Zhen Guo, General Gu, and Princess Nanyang pass through Quanzhou City. The officials have nothing to entertain them. There are two young girls in the family who are talented, so let the two young girls make a fool of themselves."

As he spoke, Wang Xinrong looked at his wife, who immediately turned her head to let her two daughters perform.

Nan Jin didn't respond, Gu Xiuran didn't pay much attention, but Nan Ling watched quietly.

Just a few words with Wang Xinrong, but it was enough for him to see his thoughtfulness, but it was not important, just to help him test Gu Xiuran, there is no reason not to want the wedding dress delivered to the door.

Wang Qian and Wang Yan retreated quickly, tidied up a bit and appeared in the banquet hall again.

The two of them changed their clothes at this moment, it was much more gorgeous than what they had just worn, and it was a little bit revealing.

She was wearing a chest-length skirt inside, but outside she was wearing a layer of gauze, neither thin nor thick, making her shoulders faintly visible.

Seeing this, Nan Jin frowned slightly, and couldn't help but tighten her hand holding the cup. She couldn't tell what she was thinking, but she just thought it was weird that a good official lady was acting like a dancing girl.
