The night breeze blew lightly, and the lanterns swayed slightly under the eaves. The night at the end of spring was no longer cold, and it was the most pleasant temperature. Ning Yi opened the window of the room to let in some fresh air, and then he scooped a bowl of soup to feed his wife.
What happened just now had only happened for a moment. In the night, the throbbing that came from the various courtyards of the Su family seemed to be caused by Ning Yi just now. Su Tan'er's emotions obviously hadn't changed from before, but she didn't ask Ning Yi anything because of this matter. She just lowered her head to drink the soup, or looked at Ning Yi with eyes that looked like they were about to cry. But Ning Yi couldn't understand what she was thinking at this time.
"I've known that Miss Nie for a long time. At that time, she got a car and sold cakes in the city. Elder Qin, Prince Consort Kang, and I all knew her. Later on, when she opened the shop, we all gave her some ideas..."
"Yes."
The couple's words, at this time, were about to end here. After all, this kind of thing had always been more troublesome the more they explained. After a while, Xiaochan carried the child over for Tan'er to feed, and also looked at Ning Yi with a complicated expression. Halfway through drinking the milk, the child seemed to feel the mood of the people in the room, and instead began to cry loudly. The crying became a buffer. The three people took turns to hug the child, and after a while, the crying gradually stopped. They put the child on the bed, and the little wrinkled face showed a bit of rosy color in the light. The peaceful silence was immersed in the quiet night.
For Ning Yi, this matter was a bit unexpected, but it wasn't completely meaningless. Whether it was in Shangjing or staying in Jiangning, there was always a group of incompetent "family members" who were enough to ruin things, stabbing him in the back, which was something he couldn't bear. Of course, it was difficult to say that he would fall out with the Su Family just because he wanted to, and that he would directly break off all relations with them. Sooner or later, there would be such a warning. If there was such a thing again, he could really make a move. After this warning, there was a possibility that similar things would become less or even be eliminated. After all, if he really participated in the high-level political struggle, with such a group of idiots behind him, it was simply a joke with the lives of his family.
And in this matter, the one who benefited the most was probably Su Yu and the entire Su family. If the Su family was regarded as an enterprise, at this time, it was already obvious that it had reached a period of transformation. At the beginning, in order to choose a successor, the three branches were allowed to run their own affairs and make achievements. But at this time, the power of the three branches was divided again, and it was already very disadvantageous for Su Tan'er. During this period of time, the old master wanted to beat up some of the forces in the family who were not satisfied with Tan'er, but after all, it was a temporary solution.
In this matter, Su Yu might not be satisfied or unconditionally believe in Ning Yi, but at that time, he saw the best opportunity. When she said, "There are some people who don't have the talent or the temperament to manage things, so there's no need to force them." She was trying to take back all the power of the second and third branches to Su Tan 'er. At that time, the old master was really decisive and directly made a decision. His words were understated, but they were all based on the aftermath of Ning Yi's words. Releasing the military power after a glass of wine caused waves in the Su family. In fact, it was many times more serious than Ning Yi's warning. Even Ning Yi couldn't help but want to cheer for it.
This was the political wisdom accumulated by the old master after many years of managing the Su family. If every family did not have such a person, it was afraid that it would not last long, let alone grow. With Su Yu, there was one thing that Ning Yi could be relieved about. That was, after he really went to Shangjing, no one would stab him in the back again, because the old master would definitely suppress this kind of crisis that would affect the whole family. Of course, the last sentence he said to Ning Yi was still to show his dissatisfaction to Ning Yi.
After Ning Yi admitted that he was behind Miss Nie, it was difficult for him to refuse to invite Miss Nie to come to his home and apologize in person. If Ning Yi really had nothing to do with Yunzhu, this matter would be reduced to a small one. The Su family would have no problem at all, and they would have made a friend with a background. If Ning Yi and Yunzhu had an affair, after receiving the apology from the whole family, the situation would be countless times more complicated if Yunzhu wanted to marry into the Su family. What the second and third branches of the Su family could not do, the old master just casually said a sentence and directly made a checkmate in front of Ning Yi. Of course, one thing that Su Yu did not expect was that, at least for the time being, Ning Yi did not make a formal consideration about letting Yunzhu marry into the family.
"Even if I marry Yunzhu now, what can I do?" The next morning, when he ran to the small building and was questioned by Yuan Jin'er, Ning Yi also said this, "Tan'er may not bully her, but she must be bullied in the Su family. After marrying into the family … she can't walk around, even if she wants to relax or ignore those people …"
"But, but …"
"At least here, you will take care of her."
"That's true." At this time, Yunzhu had already returned to her room to get her things. Jin'er held her chin, "But according to what you said, that old master of your family is so powerful. When Sister Yunzhu comes to visit, will she be bullied? Otherwise, I won't go and apologize to them …"
"Since … that old master asked me to go, I will go tomorrow." Before Jin'er finished her words, Yunzhu also came out of the room and sat down on the steps between them. She wore a long dress and looked a little haggard, but she was in good spirits. Although she suffered such an accident yesterday afternoon, in Yunzhu's heart, she was the one in the wrong. She couldn't describe how she felt when Ning Yi stood up for her like that. Whether it was shock or warmth, the private satisfaction overflowed from her heart.
She didn't mention it to Jin'er, but she was in a trance for the whole night, thinking about all kinds of things about Ning Yi. She hugged the quilt and almost didn't sleep for the whole night, rolling around. Jin'er thought that she felt wronged and didn't know how to comfort her, so she was sad for half the night.
Seeing Yunzhu's calmness, Ning Yi was a little surprised for a moment, but after a moment, he said, "Let me think about it."
Jin'er put her chin on her knees, then looked into the distance a few times, "Will someone be watching us?" Their relationship had been exposed, and they didn't know if they knew that the three of them would meet every morning. The morning mist was hazy, and the three of them sitting on the stairs seemed to be wrapped in a small world.
After saying goodbye to Yunzhu and Jin'er, they met Wenren Buer on the way home. At this time, there was obviously a spy from the Prince Consort's Mansion in the Su family. As soon as the spy came over, he gave a thumbs up, "I heard about what happened last night. Amazing. You took care of all the people in your family. Su Wenxing, who was beaten by you, is not dead, right?"
"I don't think he will wake up for a while."
"And you also solved the possible trouble in the future …" Wenren Buer sighed, "Although you look like you don't care about anything, you really know the situation in your family very well. People like you are the most suitable to help us, the Office of Secret Investigations, to get information."
At this time, the two stopped by the Qinhuai River and strolled forward. Ning Yi turned his head and asked, "Did you help to investigate this matter?"
"Investigate what?"
"Who exactly did this? Is it the Wu Family or the Xue family behind it? Do you have any information on your side? "
"Don't you know everything?" Wenren Buer was surprised.
Ning Yi spread his hands, "How could I know? It happened so fast, and I'm not a god. If Su Wenxing didn't jump out, I wouldn't even know who was involved … You should have interrogated the servant before letting him go. At that time, I thought it was not a big deal … "
Wenren Bu Er was stunned for a while, "… You don't know anything, and you were caught in the wrong … You scolded them, and then you backstabbed them, and you even beat them up … That's it."
Ning Yi looked at her as if saying, "Why did you ask such a childish question? You are a spy." But finally, he turned his palms, "What else could I do? If they didn't have something on their mind, how could I beat them? That was all I could do. After I took the high ground, I just used violence. "
"I thought you were angry."
"I was very angry. Because I was very angry, I had to break Su Wenxing's legs, or beat him to death. Anger is the motive, but I have to be calm when doing things. In that situation, if I had really lost my mind from anger and cursed at those people, I wouldn't have been able to walk out today. Do you really think I could have killed so many people in front of the Su Family's guards? "Ning Yi smiled and patted him on the shoulder." No matter what, help me check it out. "
"I'm a little scared of you …" Wenren Buer murmured, "But the Office of Secret Investigation doesn't have many people in this field. If we can find out about your things, we will. If we go back like this, we might not get any results. You have to be mentally prepared."
"Yes, I know. I just need to be prepared. "
As for this matter, Ning Yi had his own ways to investigate it. Even if Wenren Buer couldn't find anything, he didn't care. After the two of them finished chatting, Ning Yi jogged all the way back to the Su Residence. At the same time, in a teahouse on the other side of the road of the Su family, a few people were sitting upstairs and looking in their direction. There were no pedestrians, and the morning fog was boundless. Someone was coming up from downstairs.
"Brother Lin and the others have decided to take action tomorrow night. There are the most people at that time, and the city is most likely to be in chaos. They want us to be prepared."
"Yes." Xi Junyu nodded and then looked at his brothers in the teahouse, "Then let's do it tomorrow night as well. After we take action, we will spread the chaos and kill our way out of the city."
"Brothers, please help me tell the others …"
