Scheme of the Official Descendant

Chapter 278: It's time to come

Li also noticed Ren Shimin's clothes, and quickly asked, "Master, do you want to take a shower first?"

Ren Shimin looked down at his clothes and frowned, "I'm used to wearing it for so many days. I feel stink when you remind me so, go get some hot water."

Li went down and ordered people to boil water, and took clothes for Ren Shimin.

Ren Yaoqi leaned over and said, "Daddy, are you not on the same road?"

Ren Shimin stretched out his hand and pushed Ren Yaoqi's head away: "Don't lean over, Daddy smells unpleasantly on his body."

Ren Yaoqi smiled and said: "Dogs don't hate motherly ugliness, I don't hate fathers stinks."

Ren Shimin couldn't laugh or cry, but didn't rush her: "I originally planned to leave after attending the Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet in the palace, but it was delayed by one thing, and then it was a big and small banquet."

"Oh? Is something serious?" Or is Xiao Jingxi's condition worsening? Is the return journey a problem? Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but worry.

Ren Shimin took over the tea brought by the maid, and it was not as exquisite as he used to be. He opened the bowl and drank it. Fortunately, it was cold now, and the tea was just ready to be consumed.

Ren Shimin drank two sips of hot tea and said: "This matter is big and big, and small and small. The second son of Xiao appeared at the Wen Dou meeting, and was spotted by Yan Xiang's wife somehow, and Madam Yan and the queen mother He said he wanted to marry the daughter of the Yan family to the second son."

Ren Yaoqi was taken aback when he heard the words: "Miss Yan?"

Ren Yaoqi remembered that in her last life, Miss Yan Jia also fell in love with Xiao Jingxi, and finally chased him to Yanbei.

"Didn't it mean that Young Master Xiao is sick?" Ren Yaoqi asked, it seems that he should not be very sick.

Ren Shimin nodded: "Second Young Master showed up at the Wendou Meeting, and since then he has been recuperating in the other hall, only to come out for a while until the last Mid-Autumn Festival gift banquet." At this point, Ren Shimin sighed. "I don’t know how Young Master Xiao is doing now."

Ren Yaoqi frowned: "He didn't come back with you this time?"

Ren Shimin sighed: "The emperor and the queen mother had been reluctant to let go before they were walking together, and finally managed to get out. However, the road was not very peaceful, and two assassins were encountered one after another. Finally, the second son of Xiao suggested that he and We left, and then Xiao Er's carriage disappeared, but after he left, the road was peaceful. It seems that those assassins were still heading for Xiao Er."

After Ren Yaoqi listened, the heart that had been let go was suspended again.

Xiao Jingxi hasn't come back yet.

Encountered an assassin again? Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but think of the assassination that took place when he was riding in his carriage last time and the poison on his body. I don't know how many times he would encounter such things in a year?

Ren Yaoqi also wanted to ask Ren Shimin for some details, but at this time Li came over and said that the bath water was ready, and asked Ren Shimin to take a bath. Ren Yaoqi looked at Ren Shimin's tired face, but after all he was restrained, and wanted to wait for Ren Shimin to rest before asking.

A few days after Master Ren San came back, Xiao Jingxi still had no news, but for some reason, the Yanbei Palace did not publicize the fact that the second son of Xiao Er did not return to Yanbei, and they were even confessed to Ren Shimin. Don't talk too much. But Ren Yaoqi listened to Ren Yijun to say that the number of people coming and going on the official road to Kyoto recently has more than doubled than usual.

The situation outside still looks calm on the surface, but underneath it is already tense.

When Ren Shimin was still in Kyoto, Mr. Ren once sent someone to Kyoto to inquire about the news. Now that Ren Shimin is back, the person who inquired about the news brought a letter from the second old man in Kyoto.

Early that morning, the old man called Ren's adult men, and Ren Shimin also went. After he came back, he took a good rest for a few days, and finally healed slowly.

After Ren Yaoqi learned about it, he explained it. As soon as Mr. Ren San came back, he would report that she knew. Ren Yaoqi guessed that the second old lady's letter should be for the Ren family's coal store in the south, and this matter is likely to be related to Fang Yacun.

Since Ren Yaoqi learned of the involvement between Fang Yacun and Father Lu, she has paid attention to the news of Kyoto.

At noon, when Ren Shimin came back, Ren Yaoqi went to his study to find him.

Ren Shimin wondered why his daughter would care about these boring and trivial things, but he still told Ren Yaoqi in a good temper: "Father said that because of the Fang family's help, the Ren family's coal mine in Jiangnan has improved. I heard that next year. The Ren family may open four more coal yards in the Kyoto area, and relevant documents are already being prepared."

Ren Yaoqi tentatively said: "I remember that the documents required for the coal warehouse in Kyoto are very cumbersome, and the money needed to clear the relationship is also a lot?"

Ren Shimin thought for a while and said, "I heard from my father that there seems to be someone helping me."

Ren Yaoqi pursed her lips, and asked stiffly: "What nobleman?"

"This... father didn't seem to say it." Ren Shimin embarrassed that he didn't pay attention.

Ren Yaoqi lowered his head and said softly, "Where are there so many cheap things in this world? What have others given you, and always hope to get more rewards from you, but I don’t know if Ren’s family can afford it. What a'noble man' wants."

"What reward? The Ren family is not short of talent." Ren Shimin said indifferently.

Ren Yaoqi sighed. She remembered that Ren Shimin said that he might be going to teach at Yunyang Academy after the beginning of the new year, so she asked: "Daddy, if you go to teach at Yunyang Academy, the Academy will teach you every year. How much is your salary?"

Ren Shimin looked at Ren Yaoqi strangely when he heard the words, frowned and said, "Silver money is just something outside of your body, Yaoyao, don’t care too much about it. If there is something lacking in your father, let me buy it for you. As for the college, I’m thinking about it. Xu Shanchang negotiated not to take the monthly salary."

Master Ren San didn’t really care about the money at all. He went to the academy only because there were many like-minded people there, and he could study his interests with them. This time he benefited from the trip to Kyoto. A lot.

Ren Yaoqi knew this would happen.

She sighed secretly, and said, "Daddy, it's not that I care about those foreign objects, but do you remember that the five houses were fined for one year and a month?"

Master Ren San suddenly said: "Oh, what about this? I remember. The fifth brother also came to me to borrow money, but later he didn’t know how his father knew about it, and he asked me to take the money away. If I dare to secretly give the fifth disciple silver, even me will be punished."

Ren Yaoqi nodded: "How was the fifth uncle and the others this year, have you seen it too?"

Mrs. Ren said that he did not give silver, that would mean he would not give it. Originally Mrs. Ren Wu had a lot of dowry, but it was not a problem to support the expenditure of the five rooms. It was just that Mrs. Ren Wu’s dowry was mostly some valuable jewellery. After a few times, the fifth master refused to let her, and she was not allowed to borrow money from her parents.

It was the time for Mrs. Ren Wu to get married. The dowry given to her by the Lin family was very good. Many people have seen it, and others will know some things as soon as they are taken out. The fifth master is also a face-saving person, and he wants his wife to use a dowry to support him. He feels that there is no place to put his face.

But Mrs. Wu didn't get the money to subsidize her, and Master Wu was really unable to get the money, so Wu Fang immediately became stretched. Mrs. Ren Wu had not suffered such a grievance. After half a year, she couldn't hold on, and she started selling jewelry secretly.

The fifth elder, who has never spoken loudly to his wife for more than ten years of marriage, lost his temper and quarreled with the fifth wife a few times. The two ignored each other for more than half a year, and it was only recently that they gradually eased up.

"Daddy, what if there is a grandfather who is fined by the grandfather?"

Master Ren Wu said entangledly: "This... won't it?"

Ren Yaoqi shook his head: "If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of it. So you should accept the salary from Yunyang Academy first. The big deal is if you keep it or not. Wait a few years and you will donate all the money. Wouldn’t it be beautiful to build a painting gallery or a bookstore for the academy? You earned all the money, which is different from the painting gallery built with Ren’s money."

Ren Shimin was moved by the words, and nodded after thinking about it, "Let's do it then."

On the second day, Ren Shimin was invited to Yunyang Academy. Those who came back from Kyoto with Ren Shimin had to give lectures at Yunyang Academy for a while, and Ren Yaoqi also followed him on the grounds of sending a letter to the princess. The old lady thought that Ren Yaoqi would go to the palace more to make a good relationship with the princess, so she allowed her.

What Ren Yaoqi didn't expect was that when she had just arrived in Yunyang City, the first thing she heard was the sudden death of Ningxia General Soldier Wu Xiaohe.

Although Ren Yaoqi vaguely remembered the time of Wu Xiao and his death in the last life, her expression changed at the moment she heard it.

Now the whole Yunyang City is bustling with the news.

Everyone knows that Wu Xiaohe, the chief soldier of Ningxia, is the brother-in-law of King Yanbei. Wu Xiaohe holds the military power of Ningxia. He played a decisive role in the stability of the border in the Northwest.

The position of the Ningxia General Soldier is somewhat special. He is hereditary, and he is passed down from his son to his son, and then from his son to his grandson. Unfortunately, Wu Xiaohe has no sons, he has only one daughter.

The vacuum of military power in the Northwest region brought about by Wu Xiaohe's sudden death, although it was only for a while, would surely make all the forces ready to move.

But at this time, there was no news from Xiao Jingxi, and he didn't know if he came back safely.

Ren Yaoqi hesitated for a while, and finally found an envelope with a few roots of Angelica in it. Without a word or a signature, he was sent to Yanbei Palace with her letter to Xiao Jinglin. .

Sorry for being late, I have been stuck for a long time today...

I hope that we have obedient and did not wait...
