The smile on Ren Yaoqi's face faded: "Oh? You arrived pretty quickly."
Ren Yijun scoffed, "If you had come a few days later, there wouldn't even be any leftovers in Ningxia. I heard that the eldest young lady of the Su family is related to the new Ningxia general."
Ren Yaoqi knew all this very well and just smiled when he heard it.
Ren Yaoqi sat for a while before getting up to leave. As she was leaving, Qi Yuegui came over with a pair of new boots to try on Ren Yijun. Seeing Ren Yaoqi was about to leave, she smiled and said, "Fifth Miss, why don't you sit for a while longer? You're the only one our young master can talk to. He doesn't say it, but he's really happy to have you here. Of course, if you don't mind his poor chess skills and play a couple of games with him, he'll be even happier."
Ren Yaoqi smiled and said, "I'll come play chess with Third Brother next time. I really like the shoes Third Sister-in-law made for me last time. Thank you very much."
Qi Yuegui smiled cheerfully and said, "What's there to thank me for? Just tell me what style and pattern you like, and I'll make you a few more pairs. It won't take much effort."
Ren Yijun heard her voice and said in the study, "Qi Yuegui! Why don't you get over here! If you can't learn to write your own name today, you won't have any food!"
Qi Yuegui chuckled upon hearing this, and then said to Ren Yaoqi helplessly, "Your third brother is a very awkward person. He clearly means well and speaks well, but when he says it, the meaning changes. It's really..."
Qi Yuegui shook her head, said goodbye to Ren Yaoqi, took the boots in her hand and went to the study, "I understand, Master. I won't eat, I'll only eat steamed buns to save you money, okay?"
Ren Yaoqi looked back, smiled, shook his head and left.
After returning, Ren Yaoqi heard that Zeng Yu had come to take up his post, but Zeng Yu in this life did not have the confidence like in the previous life. When passing by Yanzhou, he deliberately stopped for a day and delivered a visiting card to the Palace of Prince Yanbei. Prince Yanbei was not in Yunyang City, so the Second Young Master Xiao met him.
Afterwards, Zeng Yu went to Ningxia.
However, news also came out that the former Ningxia general had a posthumous child. Mrs. Wu refused to admit that the concubine Di was pregnant with General Wu's son. The eldest daughter of the Wu family brought a few fierce old women to feed Di saffron, but was stopped by Wu Xiao and some of his generals after getting the news.
A new emperor appoints new ministers. It is not difficult to calculate whether to let a newly appointed general of unknown background control Ningxia or to support a baby left behind by the former general. Therefore, even though Xiao Wei and her daughter were pregnant with a bastard child by Xiao Di in Ningxia, not many people were willing to agree with her.
However, a few families also envisioned marrying Wu Yiyu, the eldest daughter of the Wu family, and having one of their own inherit the title of Ningxia General as the Wu family's son-in-law. As the Princess of Yanbei, Xiao Wei should have supported this initiative, but the Yanbei Palace surprisingly didn't express support for Xiao Wei and her daughter. Xiao Wei also sent someone to bring back a letter, but unfortunately, the King of Yanbei was away, and the Princess Consort never addressed such important matters.
