Chapter 165

Seeing the politeness he said, Mingxia felt very uncomfortable and disappointed. Could it be that she was overthinking, why did he feel like a piece of wood, and didn't feel anything at all?

The two of them had just finished their meal when they saw the boy from the restaurant come in with a smile on his face, and put a pot of high-quality century-old bamboo leaf green on his face, "Use it slowly, you two!" "Hey, wait a minute, is this wine a gift Wrong, we didn't order it?" Mingxia looked at the wine and said.I obviously only ordered a pot of Nurhong, why did I bring another pot of wine, maybe I made a mistake? "Girl, that's right, your account has already been settled! If there is nothing to do, the little one will go down first, and if you have something to do, you can just call!" Xiao Er said and was about to go out.

Mingxia could already guess at least half of it in her heart. This matter probably has something to do with Su Xiaoru. She didn't expect to start taking action so soon!Mingxia shouted directly: "Little brother, don't leave first, let me ask you, who settled the bill for us?"

The boy turned his head and said with a smile: "It's Yuanwai Su. Su Yuanwai is the richest man in the imperial capital. The lady on the street today is the only daughter of Yuanwai Su. This young master saved Miss Su. It's nothing. This Longxiang Restaurant is the property of the Su family, just now Steward Su called and said that the two of you don't need to settle the bill!"

Nan Ziling picked up the jug and sniffed it, and said: "This is the best hundred-year-old bamboo leaf green, let your boss worry about it! This wine is too precious, you should keep it for entertaining distinguished guests, your lady has already thanked you, There’s no need for these!” He said looking at Mingxia, “Miss Feng, let’s go!”

Mingxia smiled and nodded, "Yes, good!" She put down a 100 tael silver ticket on the table.This time he has good eyesight and knows that these things are not acceptable!
Xiao Er stared blankly at the two of them going downstairs, touched his head inexplicably, and said, "I'm sick, and I'm not happy to eat and drink for free, hum!" As he spoke, he stuffed the 100 taels of silver bill into his waist , "You don't want this!" Picking up the jug and smelling it on the tip of his nose, he said with a smile, "It should be worth a lot of money if you take it out! Hehe."

After leaving Longxiang Restaurant, Mingxia's Mingxia was exceptionally nice, chatting and laughing all the way. "Brother Nan, where do you think we should go to have fun?" Mingxia asked as she walked.

Nan Ziling paused, looked at the pedestrians coming and going, then looked at Mingxia and asked, "Aren't you hiding from the imperial army, why are you still in the mood to play?"

Mingxia was taken aback, then smiled and said: "Isn't it because you are here? I know you will protect me, right? So there is nothing to worry about. I have been in the palace since I was a child, and I have never come out to play. It is so fun outside. , Of course, you have to play enough, even if you get beheaded later, you won’t suffer a loss!”

Nan Ziling really didn't know if Mingxia's words were true or not, so he said helplessly, "I really can't do anything with you, there are important things to do when we go to the south of the Yangtze River, if the girl really wants to play, why don't we Going to Jiangnan, what do you think?" "Going to Jiangnan?" Mingxia thought for a while, anyway, it's all for fun, as long as she goes with him, it doesn't matter where she goes!He smiled and said, "Okay, let's go to Jiangnan!"

After the two made an agreement, Nan Ziling went to prepare horses and dry food, but they ran into trouble before they left the city.

When they reached the city gate, they suddenly found that there were three times as many guards at the city gate than usual, strictly checking the crowd.

Nan Ziling frowned, and looked back at Mingxia, "Are you really a little maid? You're just a maid. As for spending so much money, Miss Feng, are you still hiding something from me?"

Mingxia hid behind Nanziling, looking at the familiar figure at the gate of the city, she was secretly worried, why did she get all the guards from Yuwangfu? "Hehe, there's nothing to hide. They didn't check me, maybe it was Jiang Yang's bandit or something. It's not very peaceful recently, don't you know?" Mingxia laughed and said indiscriminately. "Two, my master is here to invite you!"

Suddenly there was an amiable voice behind her, which startled Mingxia. It was really a wave of ups and downs. Looking at this 50-[-]-year-old man dressed as a housekeeper, there was a waist card hanging on his waist, and it clearly showed Su Words, Mingxia can't wait to step forward and spit, it's a dog skin plaster, and I can't even shake it off!
"Butler Su, what's the matter with you?" Mingxia asked viciously.What is the origin of the Su family? It's just a little money. Do you dare to pretend to be big in front of this princess?
Steward Su said with a pleasant smile: "I think this is Miss Feng. Our master is grateful for Mr. Nan's life-saving grace to Miss. He specially invites the two of you to come to the mansion to thank you, and also invites you to move your honorable car!" Made a gesture of please.

Nan Ziling glanced outside the city gate, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Master Su, for your kindness. It's just a trivial matter. Don't worry about it. I have important things to do, so don't bother me. I will definitely visit Master Su in the future!"

Steward Su was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Mr. Nan was joking. People often say that the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring. You saved our lady's life. You are the great benefactor of our Su family. You are too kind to say that." When the old slave came out, the master urged me to invite Mr. Nan back. If you don't go, the old slave can't explain it. You should treat it as a good deed and go!" As he spoke, he bowed deeply to Nan Ziling.

Nan Ziling hurriedly supported Steward Su, and said, "Don't be like this, please get up quickly!" He glanced at Mingxia in embarrassment, and said, "Here."

Mingxia didn't care about these things anymore, because Wang Long and Wang Ming seemed to have spotted Mingxia and were rushing towards her. Mingxia panicked, pulled Nan Ziling's hand, and said, "Let's go for a while." Let's go to Su's house, it's not good to push him with such kindness, let's go!" After saying that, he turned and followed Steward Su.

When Wang Long and Wang Ming came over, Mingxia was nowhere to be seen.

Wang Long asked the guard beside him, "You read that right, that girl just now is really a princess?" "Yes!" The guard clasped his fists and replied.

Wang Long then went to see Wang Ming, "You immediately lead someone to chase in the direction the princess is walking!"

After Wang Ming left, Wang Long grabbed a peddler nearby and asked, "Do you know the person standing here just now?"

The peddler saw that he was dressed in official clothes, and knew that he couldn't afford to offend him, so he hurriedly said: "I know, I know, the butler just now is the butler of the Su Mansion!" "Su Mansion? Is it the butler of Su Wanwan, the richest man in the capital?" Wen Feng asked. "Yeah, except for the Su family, no one else has such a big ostentation!" The peddler said with a smile. Seeing that Wenfeng was not as fierce as other officers and soldiers, the peddler's potential for gossip was revealed, and he asked, "I don't know what happened?" What's the matter, why is the city gate so strict today?"

Wang Long stared and said: "It's none of your business, it's better not to ask!" After speaking, he strode away.

The peddler was taken aback, until he couldn't see Wang Long's back, then he patted his chest and said: "All the officials are the same, dogs look down on people, I'm sorry!"

Wang Ming walked and asked the guards, all the way to the Su Mansion, but before he entered, he was stopped by Wang Long who rushed over. "Let them all go back. With the character of the princess, it is even more impossible to go back to the palace after seeing so many people. It is better for us to go alone!" Wang Long said.

Wang Ming thought for a while, the less people know about the princess leaving the palace, the better. Besides, so many people will inevitably arouse other people's speculation. If the Nursing Court of Su Mansion finds out and disturbs the princess, it will be a death penalty!Thinking of this, he asked the guards to go back first, and then the two of them tried to find a way to sneak into Su's residence.

Just when the two were at a loss, two servants from the Su residence happened to come out, their eyes lit up, and they followed silently.

Mingxia reluctantly followed Nan Ziling to the Su residence. She thought that member Su must be a warm and hospitable old man, but she didn't expect that the two of them just entered the Su residence, and saw the faces of all the servants in the residence panicked, as if As if something extraordinary had happened, Steward Su looked back at the two of them, hesitating to speak.

When passing through the Moon Gate and passing a garden, Butler Su suddenly turned around and knelt down towards the two of them.

Nan Ziling quickly supported him, and said, "Butler Su, what's the reason, get up quickly!"

Mingxia also never imagined why Steward Su would kneel down to her suddenly, and followed suit: "If you have anything to do, let's get up and talk about it!"

Steward Su pushed Nan Ziling away, knelt on the ground obstinately, said nothing, and said tearfully, "You two, I, Su Hong, beg you to save my lady." Steward Su kept kowtowing to the two of them. Said. "What's going on here? Why did your lady ask us to rescue her, and why did we rescue your lady?" Mingxia really couldn't figure it out. She has a lot of money and no worries about food and clothing. What should I save?

Nan Ziling stretched out his hand to help Butler Su up, and said, "Butler Su, what is going on, if you need it, I will do my best, get up first!"

Seeing that Nan Ziling was as polite and gentle as jade, Mingxia's love for him deepened, and she also called out: "Yes, you can talk when you get up. If it's easy, I will definitely help!" "My family The master wants to betroth the young lady to Wang Qiang, the prime minister's son, but the young lady is unwilling. The old master puts the young lady under house arrest. The date has been fixed, and she will marry next month. But everyone in the capital knows that the prince has always been misbehaving. Push it into the fire pit?" Su Butler thought of Su Xiaoru who lost her mother since childhood, tears fell again.

Mingxia saw that what he said was really pitiful, so she sighed and said: "Although Wang Qiang is indeed not a thing, he is the son of the prime minister after all, and his family background is still worthy of your Su family. Since your master and wife agree Well, what else can we do? Didn’t you ancients often say that parents ordered matchmakers? We can’t help either!”

Hmph, feelings are for us to regret the marriage for your lady. What do you mean, do you want to match Su Xiaoru and Nan Ziling? If you dare to have this idea, I will let the emperor make an order for Su Xiaoru to marry Wang Qiang! "Miss Feng, you don't know. Our wife passed away three years ago. Now the second wife is extremely dissatisfied with the young lady. She just doesn't like the young lady, so she tried her best to persuade the master to marry the young lady to Wang Qiang!" Steward Su said angrily.

Nan Ziling said in a deep voice: "Since your lady is not willing, don't you master also ignore your lady's wishes? It is not difficult to get a good marriage with the reputation of the Su family, why do you have to choose Wang Qiang?" Nan Ziling recalled the scene of seeing Wang Qiang, and the scene of rescuing Su Xiaoru today, he really couldn't bear it. "Second Madam is the number one in Zuichun Tower, named Hongying. She just entered the Su Mansion two years ago, and she is so fascinated by the master that she doesn't even care about her own daughter! , so as to lay the foundation for doing business in the future, how can there be such a father in the world!" Su Butler stumbled and sighed. "What's so strange about this? If you have money, you want to have power. If you have power, you want to have money. The two of you are a perfect match!" Mingxia laughed.

Seeing Mingxia's playful smile, Steward Su was disappointed when he thought of his sincere attitude and Miss's ardent hope, he beat his chest and sighed: "Forget it, forget it, I think the two of you are just reading a joke and don't really want to help us Miss, our lady has misjudged the person! Poor lady, she has never been out of the boudoir, this time I implore me to find you two, hoping to help her tide over the difficulties, but it is a pity that the entrustment is not human!"
