Chapter 114 Farewell
Xie Lingxi nodded and ordered, "Jingzhe, let Chushu bring a team to escort Chi Moyan."
Jingzhe took the order and retreated, "Yes."
"Thank you, my husband!" Jiang Rong smiled and said, "By the way, someone sent an invitation to my second sister today... This must be Prince Duan's conspiracy. We have to find a chance to break his plan!"
She spoke in detail and Xie Lingxi listened quietly.
It's hot outside the window, but there's an ice jar inside, so it's quite cool.
After talking about Xie Ruojiao, she briefly mentioned the eldest son's house, saying that everything was just what she wanted.
Let Xie Lingxi know first.
Otherwise her husband would vent his anger on her and take back the money.
…
After Jiang Rong left.
Xiao Nanxing sighed, "Concubine Zhao is only eyeing the little profit in front of her! But the Crown Prince's Concubine is concerned about the safety of the entire Xie family. There is a world of difference. Fortunately, Concubine Zhao is not the head of the Northern Prince's Mansion."
Xie Lingxi's eyes darkened slightly, and his emotions could not be seen. If Jiang Rong didn't want it, he would definitely take it back.
I won’t let anyone steal Jiang Rong’s things.
Jingzhe came in and reported: "Young Master, Young Master Ye Yan has arrived."
"Let him in."
Ye Yan walked in with a smile on his face, but when he saw Xie Lingxi's slightly cold expression, he immediately put away his smile and bowed:
"Greetings, young master!"
Xie Lingxi looked at him and said, "Wanjin Commercial Bank has found a suspicious point..."
At Xie Lingxi's command, countless people from Wanjin Commercial Bank started moving.
After a thorough investigation, a suspicious caravan was found.
After the caravan entered the Western Regions, there was no news of it.
It looked like just an ordinary caravan, nothing unusual.
Whenever you go abroad for business, you need a customs clearance document to leave the country.
This thing is not easy to hold.
If you don’t have some connections in the court, you can’t do this kind of business.
So we traced this network layer by layer, unraveling it...
"We tracked down this caravan thanks to the connection with the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, which gave us the clearance document..." Xiao Nanxing looked serious.
Ye Yan immediately realized the seriousness of the matter!
There has been no clue as to which force was the dark shadow lurking in the northern border more than a decade ago.
But it must be a powerful force in the court that has such ability.
If this caravan is the shadow lurking in the Western Regions, then the Xun family is the mastermind behind it.
Xie Lingxi looked at him and said:
"Go check Yeluo. This is where they stayed after entering the Western Regions."
The document clearly stated that their destination was Ye Luo, a small country in the Western Regions.
If you go to other places, that document will be useless and you will be an illegal resident.
At least in Ye Luo, they must have someone to contact.
"Yes. After I return to the Western Regions this time, I will go to Ye Luo to investigate thoroughly!" Ye Yan accepted the order.
After Ye Yan left.
Xie Lingxi looked in the direction of the Xun family, his eyes cold.
…
Beiwang Palace, Zhaoguang Garden.
Concubine Zhao was in high spirits because of the good news. She returned to her courtyard with Qiao proudly and said:
"Yingying, you have to work hard! Right now, the most precious thing in the entire Beiwang Mansion is your body. You have to work harder to give birth to a son."
Mrs. Qiao smiled and said, "With the mother-in-law in charge, the daughter-in-law can rest assured and take care of the baby."
Concubine Zhao was thinking about power.
However, Mrs. Qiao was worried that Jiang Rong would trip her up and harm her child.
Look at her, after she became pregnant, all the good things were sent to Zhaoguang Garden. If she were Jiang Rong, she would be so angry that she would die.
Now, I can finally rest assured.
"Just take care of yourself. Someone, go and call all the stewards in the mansion to wait in my yard. I want to give them a lecture." Concubine Zhao gave her instructions and turned to walk out.
She was the head of the mansion before, and all the managers tried to curry favor with her and gave her gifts.
But after Jiang Rong took over, the managers changed their minds and stopped showing courtesy to her...
Concubine Zhao was very angry.
Once you are successful, you will want to show off and establish your power!
"Madam, all the internal accounts are in your hands now, so you can do whatever you want!" the accompanying nanny flattered.
Concubine Zhao glanced at her and said, "You are such a tactless person. Jiang Rong is just waiting to find faults with me and then take back the internal accounts. How can I let this vixen succeed? You all listen carefully to me. This internal account must be taken care of! There can't be any mistakes, and Jiang Rong can't find any handle on me!"
"Yes!" The servants hurriedly obeyed the order.
"Now that the account is in my hands, I will not hand it over! Jiang Rong still wants it back? Humph!" Concubine Zhao snorted coldly:
"Don't even think about it!"
Concubine Zhao planned to wait until Qiao gave birth to this baby, and then use the child as an excuse to continue to manage the internal affairs...
Therefore, there can be no more mistakes now, lest Jiang Rong finds hold of him.
From today on, work diligently and take care of the internal accounts carefully.
…
Prince Duan's Mansion received the news that Xie Ruojiao had rejected the offer.
"She has always liked this kind of poetry gathering. If she is free, she will go. Does she have anything to do tomorrow?" Murong Shili frowned and looked at the scholar beside him and said:
"Go check what Xie Ruojiao is going to do tomorrow."
The scribe took the order and left.
Early the next morning.
Capital city, Liuyue Ferry.
"My son bids farewell to my mother. Please take good care of yourself." Chi Moyan bowed to his mother.
Chi's mother had tears in her eyes, but there was also a relieved smile on her face:
"You are going back to take part in the provincial examination this time. Mother is proud of you. You must take good care of yourself. It is cold on the river at night. Remember to put on more clothes..."
Mother Chi gave many detailed instructions, and finally said:
"You don't need to worry about mother. The Crown Princess has sent someone to take care of me. You just need to focus on the exam... Your father is a Jinshi, and mother believes that you will not be bad either!"
Mention that person.
Chi Moyan's eyes turned cold without any expression.
"Well, don't worry..." Chi Moyan responded vaguely.
Finish talking to Chi's mother.
He then bowed to Jiang Rong and said, "Princess, thank you for taking care of my mother and for arranging the guards. Thank you for your trouble!"
"You are from the Northern Palace, this should be arranged for you." Jiang Rong looked at him and chuckled:
"Have a safe trip. I'll wait for you to return to Beijing."
Chi Moyan nodded seriously.
Finally, he looked at Song Heng and said, "We have competed so many times, but there is no winner. You must work hard and pass the imperial examination. Only then can we compete in the imperial examination."
Song Heng will also take part in the provincial examination in the capital this year.
"Then I'll wait for you at the imperial examination." Song Heng couldn't help but smile, looking at him and stretching out a clenched fist.
The two men bumped fists and challenged each other to a duel.
Xie Ruojiao's heart was filled with emotion. It is a great blessing to have a close friend in life!
"How about you make another deal? Whoever gets the lowest ranking will treat us to a meal!" Xie Ruojiao loved to join in the fun of scholars, so she covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Okay." Chi Moyan said with a smile.
Song Heng also nodded.
…
In a restaurant not far from the ferry.
Prince Duan looked at this scene with deep eyes.
"Your Majesty, today Miss Xie came to see Chi Moyan off. But after our investigation, we found that the person she was familiar with was not this person, but Song Heng." The scholar reported quietly:
"Song Heng fell ill a while ago, and Second Miss Xie went to see him every day."
