Everyone But Me is Reborn

Chapter 89: (repair)

Ning Shuo was taken away by officials, and it was unknown if someone had greeted him beforehand. He was only taken to ask a few words, and then he was put in a prison.

Now that the weather has entered autumn, although the outside is hot, the inside of the prison is damp and cold. He broke a leg, and since he got here, he was still in pain. Ning Shuo didn't care about this, and was full of panic and fear.

He naturally didn't dare to confess the people behind him. Fortunately, he hadn't been interrogated many words. He didn't tell the people behind him, and those people let him go. The only thing that made Ning Shuo panic was that he didn't know how long he would stay in this cell or when he could leave.

Now that the venting matter has been discovered, I don't know if it will hurt him.

Ning Shuo thought a lot for a while.

The big jail was very quiet, with only the shaking of the chains from the actions of prisoners in other cells. Ning Shuo also saw a mouse running from outside. His hairs stood upright, but the prisoner on the other side seemed to have seen nothing. Hearing his scream, he didn't even lift his eyelids.

Soon, the door of the prison opened and someone came in from outside. The man was wearing a black cloak and a hood, covering his face, he walked straight to the door of the cell where Ning Shuo was and stopped. Ning Shuo was stunned, and immediately rushed forward: "My lord!"

The voice of the incoming person was mute: "Don't want to be loud."

Ning Shuo quickly closed his mouth, watching his eyes still cautiously.

He asked in a low voice: "My lord, what exactly happened? The exam questions were changed temporarily, and someone reported that the officials took me into prison..."

"Don't panic, when the time comes, I will naturally send someone to rescue you." Black cloak said: "Just remember, don't expose us, if someone finds the person above, even me. I can't protect you."

Ning Shuo responded quickly and hopefully said: "Then when can I go out?"

"You will be able to go out when the leak is over."

Ning Shuo nodded, and then quickly asked: "Will I be involved in the leak of the imperial examination?"

"What are you afraid of?" Black cloak said: "If you can help me do something, your benefits will naturally be indispensable. Wouldn't it be better than where to become a Seventh-Rank Sesame Official?"

Ning Shuo didn't know what to say for a while.

"Then I can't be an official?"

"When your affairs are done, the adults will reward you no matter what official you want to do."

Ning Shuo's face improved a little now.

"You remember, in any case, you can't publicize this matter. If you are tired of adults, let alone being an official, you may not even be able to get out of this prison. You have to accept all the benefits. The previous days were good. Is it comfortable? If you are obedient and obedient and do things as we say, you will get more things in the future."

Ning Shuo nodded repeatedly. Many of the silver obtained from selling test questions went into his pocket, replaced by his claret red horse, replaced by Ning Qing's jewelry, so that he can live the same as before after the division of Ning family.

It would be a big problem for him to let him spit out those silver.

"It's fine if you know it. After this leak of the question is over, the adults will naturally compensate you."

Ning Shuo responded and watched the man in the black cloak walk out. The door of the prison slowly closed. He moved back to the depths of the cell, but his heart was half set.

...

Ning Nuan struggled again and again, but took out paper and pen again, and wrote a letter to An Wang.

Xiangtao didn't say anything this time, and when she saw the letter disappearing at the door, her eyes were full of sympathy.

"Miss, if Wang An asks you to go out to meet him, do you want to agree, Miss?" Xiangtao said nervously, "If Wang An meets you, I don't know what to do."

Ning Nuan: "What's the matter?"

Xiangtao thought for a while, but couldn't tell why.

"He didn't dare yet." Ning Nuan said, "If he had this idea, he would have written to force me."

"What does Wang An want to do?" Xiangtao asked.

What does An Wang want to do? Chu Fei's letter was delivered quickly, and he said clearly in his heart what he wanted to do.

The letter requested that Ning Nuan could not refuse the things he sent in the future. Only when Ning Nuan agreed, would he tell her about the leak of the imperial examination. And when he sends things over in the future, he will also use the name of Ninglang, so that no one will notice. As for the delivery, it will also be a consumable for food.

After Ning Nuan read it, she felt funny in her heart.

Even Xiangtao took a look at it, feeling speechless: "His Royal Highness An has tried so hard to make the young lady agree to this?"

Not to mention that An Wang wrote that kind of content in the letter. Now he finally got the opportunity to threaten their young lady, but only let their young lady agree to this request. Change to other people...No, there are no other people who want to impress their young ladies, it is really rare.

"Miss, do you want to agree?"

"I received the things, maybe they can't pass the mother's level. That's another matter." Ning Nuan wrote a letter while saying, "Just let him deliver the things, but don't accept them. That's our Ning family gatekeeper. He doesn’t listen to me.”

Xiangtao suddenly realized that when Ning Nuan finished her letter, she couldn't help but feel more sympathetic in her eyes.

Chu Fei did what he said, and Ning Nuan responded and immediately told her the causes and consequences of the incident.

When Ning Shuo was studying in Jiangzhou, he came across a person by chance. By coincidence, he started to help that person and gained a lot of benefits. He returned to Beijing this time for Qiu Wei, but he didn't expect that people he knew in Jiangzhou also went all the way to the capital, contacted him, gave him the exam questions, and asked him to sell them to those candidates in the capital.

Therefore, Ning Shuo used his old friends from Jiangzhou to go to Beijing every day. Those test questions were sold throughout the capital. Almost all the dudes in the capital who were not short of money bought test questions from him.

Chu Fei also said in his heart that a few days ago, Zhu Hanshan came to him with a question, and he learned about the leaked exam questions, and then told the emperor about it. Now Qiu Wei's exam questions have already been changed. Up. Those who bought the exam questions were furious, and blocked Ning Shuo after leaving the exam room, beat him, and broke his leg.

As for Ning Shuo's arrest, that was also the secret he sent. He spread the news among the scholars, and those scholars were filled with righteous indignation and spread to this point.

Ning Nuan read the letter over and over again, but did not dare to keep it for a moment, burning with horror.

Seeing the white paper turning to ashes in the copper basin, she patted her chest and said to Xiang Tao: "You can't tell anyone about this."

Xiangtao obediently complied, and she didn't even see what was written in the letter.

Ning Nuan never expected that this matter was even related to several princes. Chu Fei didn't say clearly in the letter, he obscured the people behind the scenes, but in what he wrote, there was a vague hint of who was behind Ning Shuo. This incident seems to be related to the seizure of the princes. .

Ning Nuan's heart thumped, and she couldn't sit still anymore, and hurriedly went to look for Jiang Yunlan.

"Mother." Ning Nuan closed the doors and windows of the house and drove the people away before asking nervously, "Mother, if I ask you one thing, you must tell me honestly."

Jiang Yunlan was puzzled and replied: "A Nuan, you said, as long as your mother knows, your mother must tell you everything."

"Our house..." Ning Nuan bit her lip, lowered her voice, and asked hesitantly: "Now all the princes are all grown-ups, and there are many supporters in the court, dad...did he support him secretly? Who?"

Jiang Yunlan was suddenly surprised: "A Nuan, why would you ask this?"

"Mother, tell me, does he have any?"

"Your father doesn't have one." Jiang Yunlan didn't conceal anything, and said everything to her: "My father and I dare not get involved in this matter, it's just A Nuan, why would you suddenly ask about this?"

"It's Wang An, he told me about the leak." Ning Nuan frowned and said: "Wang An said, cousin he is secretly working for a certain prince, and I am worried that he will be involved in the matter Inside, it will hurt our family."

Jiang Yunlan was startled, and immediately asked: "Then King An said, who is Ning Shuo helping?"

Ning Nuan shook his head.

"I also discussed with your father before, the second room, the second room..." Jiang Yunlan hesitated for a while, raised a finger, and signaled to her: "This matter, don't tell anyone, there is no second room there. I told us that this is what my father and I guessed it. Ning Qing wanted you to marry Young Master Liu, which also meant to win over your father. A Nuan, don’t worry, mother will handle the second room's affairs this time. , Will leave us and them clean."

Ning Nuan let go of his heart.

...

Ning Shuo entered the jail and didn't know what would happen in the future. The result of Ning Shuo was not revealed, and the second room was in chaos first.

The old lady spared no expense and went to intercede with her precious grandson, but this matter was of great importance. Ning Shuo was the key person, and no one dared to help her, so she thanked her in secret. The second wife tried to manage Ning Shuo again, for fear that he would not be well in the cell.

The imperial examination matter was raging, and the list would be released in half a month, but all the candidates were uneasy. In order to appease the candidates, the emperor issued an order. The officials also interrogated Ning Shuo overnight, and then posted a notice stating that the exam questions had not been leaked, and sent someone to spread the word among the candidates, saying that they would believe the emperor would Give them justice.

All the candidates were nervous, but Zhu Hanshan was the most calm, and so was the Ning family. After Zhu Hanshan had a good rest and Ning's affairs had come to an end, Jiang Yunlan asked the chef of Ningfu to cook a table of good dishes just as she said. I wish Zhu Hanshan could pass the exam this time.

On this day, Zhu Hanshan came out of the academy and saw Ning’s carriage waiting at the door. When he saw him coming out, he immediately greeted him.

"I wish you son, this time I will also go to Ningfu." The servant who drove the car said earnestly: "Madam said, I missed it last time. Congratulations, this time I must congratulate you."

This has been said a long time ago, and Zhu Hanshan didn't decline much. After getting on the carriage, he asked, "I saw earlier that Ning Lang's cousin seemed to have also participated in Qiuwei. What happened later?"

"Young Master Tang was arrested, don’t you know Mr. Zhu? He got out of the examination room that day and was interrupted by someone. On the second day, an official came to arrest him, saying it was the imperial examination leak. He has something to do with him." The subordinate sighed: "You don't know, Master Zhu. Originally, our old lady hoped that Young Master Tang could pass the exam, but now it's better. He didn't even participate in Qiu Wei, let alone fame. "

The people of the Ning family were also shocked by this change.

Previously, everyone thought that Ning Shuo was the most outstanding character in the Ning family. There was a Ning Lang who could do nothing and found an excuse to go to Qingzhou to study in order to escape Qiu Wei. The youngest son in the three rooms below has not yet grown up. If you look at the entire Ning family, there is only Ning Shuo the best. Who knew that Ning Shuo would go to jail when he turned his head. He didn't know what to do in the future, and he might not be able to participate in the imperial examination again. Not to mention that this matter is very important, whether Ning Shuo can come back safely is a question.

The young master of the three rooms has not yet grown up, so he goes around, and he still depends on the ineffective Ninglang of the big room.

Zhu Hanshan nodded, indicating that he knew it.

When the carriage arrived at Ning's house, Mrs. Zhu was still waiting at the door this time, and when she saw him coming back, she immediately greeted him.

"Grandma, be careful." Zhu Hanshan hurriedly went to help her.

I wish the old lady very happy: "Mrs. Ning said, this time is to congratulate you in advance, she also said that after the list is released, she will congratulate you again, and also said that she will go to the largest restaurant in the capital to congratulate you. Yeah!"

Zhu Hanshan: "How can I trouble Madam Ning so much."

"I am not too troublesome." Jiang Yunlan said: "As long as you don't refuse, I will be happy."

Zhu Hanshan thanked him again, and everyone walked to the table. The table was already full of various delicacies, including chicken, duck and fish, and very rich.

I wish my grandmother happy to say: "Mrs. Ning also specially asked me what do you like to eat, look, these are all specially prepared by Mrs. Ning for you."

Seeing Zhu Hanshan's mouth open again, Jiang Yunlan quickly said: "If you want to thank you, you will write to Ninglang next time. It is all he asked us to thank him."

Zhu Hanshan could only shut his mouth and held back his gratitude.

It just seems that God can't get along with Zhu Hanshan. Not long after they sat down this time, there was another person outside. The second lady came to look for the old lady.

Seeing their lively congratulations, the second wife was jealous, and she bitterly said: "My son is in jail, and I don't know what will happen, Jiang, are you happy in your heart?"

Jiang Yunlan immediately rolled her eyes indecently, causing the second lady's blood to surge, and even more headache.

"Your son is in jail, what does it matter to me? Now I am celebrating Zhu Hanshan, do you recognize him? He is a friend of our Lang'er, the best learned person in Qingshan Academy, this autumn, he will be able to To win the top spot, wait until next year's Spring Festival, the palace exam, maybe you can even win the three yuan!"

Zhu Hanshan was embarrassed by her and lowered his head and put down his chopsticks.

But these words irritated the second lady even more.

In her thoughts, Ning Shuo deserved it. But now the fact is that Ning Shuo is in prison, and she doesn't know what will happen in the future. Maybe she won't even be able to pass the imperial examination in the future. Looking at Jiang Yunlan's proud appearance, she almost fainted.

As soon as she was about to have an attack, Jiang Yunlan immediately reminded: "There are outsiders around now, you are careful to let others read the joke, and you shame Ning Shuo."

The second lady was angry and had to hold back.

She suffocated her face and turned into pig liver red, staring at Jiang Yunlan bitterly, but still thinking about what was in her heart, she hurried to look for the old lady in the backyard.

Jiang Yunlan thought: She put the celebration banquet outside in the restaurant, and she did it right.

If the second child's family collided several times, the joy would be swept away.

It's rare for the second wife to come here, not for simple things. She stayed in the old lady's house for a long time before leaving, but she calmed down when she left, as if the matter had been resolved.

Sure enough, when Ning Yanting came back, he was quickly called by the old lady.

The old lady meant that he wanted him to walk away from the relationship and then take out his money to get Ning Shuo out of the prison.

Ning Yanting said in disbelief, "Mother, do you know how important Ning Shuo is now? The imperial examination leaks are of great importance. Nowadays, many people are watching, and all the candidates are waiting for one. As a result, Ning Shuo is the one who sells exam questions. He is the most important one. If he is gone, how should we investigate this matter?"

The old lady was dissatisfied: "As his uncle, don't you even help me with this?"

"This selling test questions was done by Ning Shuo himself. If he had revealed something to me, I could stop him, mother, how would you let me help him?" Ning Yanting said, "If you are If I really want to rescue Ning Shuo, it's better to persuade him to tell him the person behind him earlier. This matter can also be resolved earlier. Wouldn't Ning Shuo come out naturally?"

The old lady was even more dissatisfied: "This shadowless thing, how do you make Shuo'er give it?"

"what?"

"Shuoer must have been wronged. He has been in Jiangzhou and has never had contact with these people in Beijing. How can he steal the exam questions? Besides, what does he steal the exam questions for? I'm sure I can get the top pick. Besides, isn't this test question not leaked?"

"That was someone who found out in time and temporarily changed the test questions!"

Old lady: "So Shuo'er is even more innocent! Now that the exam questions have been changed, the exam questions that Shuo'er sold are also fake. Why do they catch him?"

Even knowing that the old lady's eyes were on his brother's side, Ning Yanting was disappointed.

He coldly refused: "Mother, don't mention it anymore, I won't help with this matter. If you really want Ning Shuo to come out, it's better to let him recruit early."

The old lady's eyes widened, as if she had never expected that he would refuse so decisively. Only after the separation, her voice became smaller and smaller, let alone a daughter-in-law who talked back to her all day. The old lady thought about it, but it didn't happen.

She said: "Since you are not willing to help, you have to get some money out."

"Silver? What silver?"

"Shuo'er is in the prison. Where is the place for him to stay? His leg injury is not healed, and the jailer inside doesn't know how to bully him. It costs a lot of money to do this. You have to rely on Shu'er. You know what's going on in the second family. They don't have so much money. You can get the money." The old lady said it was a matter of course.

Ning Yanting almost laughed angrily.

He didn’t want to say more, and said: “Ning Shuo, I won’t take care of the first half. No matter what the second brother wants to do, even if it’s a penny, I won’t take it out. In the future, you don’t want it. Mention it with me again."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and flung his sleeves and left, not giving the old lady any chance to teach.

The old lady almost lost her breath, and ordered someone to call Jiang Yunlan over. All the money in the Ning family was in her hands.

Jiang Yunlan heard the words, but his eyes lit up, he immediately picked up the abacus, dialed it, and said, "According to what you said, old lady, saving Ning Shuo will cost so much money. I'm afraid this house is not enough."

"Sell a house? What kind of house?" The old lady didn't react for a while.

"If the second brother is willing to sell me the place where they live, I would naturally be willing to pay for the money." Jiang Yunlan put her chin away and said, "But if you let me pay for the money, I would not agree. "

"you……!"

"I understand what the old lady meant. It's just what Ning Shuo has to do with my big house. All my money will be left to Lang'er and Anuan in the future. Ning Shuo is not my own person. Who is he? If you’re born, let someone pay and tell me what to do?"

The old lady pointed her finger up, her fingers trembling, and she was speechless for a long time.

Jiang Yunlan said: "Ning Shuo earned a lot of money by selling exam questions. Before the old lady asked me for money, it's better to ask my second child, where did Ning Shuo hide the money?"

When the old lady was excited, she rolled her eyes and fainted. The maid next to her quickly took out the pills and let her take it. After a long time, the old lady woke up quietly, but where was the shadow of Jiang Yunlan in the room?

The second wife came to make a fuss again, and finally was ordered by Jiang Yunlan to drive out without mercy.

Ning Shuo hadn't come out of the prison before the problem of leaking the question was resolved.

Zhu Hanshan won the first place, China understands Yuan.

On the day of the list, Jiang Yunlan asked people to buy firecrackers to set off, and they crackled for a long time. Mrs. Zhu and Zhu Hanshan were also picked up by her from Zhujiacun, their faces were full of joy.
