Chapter 499 Making a Move on the Princess
On the carriage, Ningbao told Su Jingshu about Sun Pingsheng and his sister, since they had gone to Chuyun Village and might have another chance to meet in the future.
Su Jingshu was also filled with emotion after hearing this.
"Alas! They are all pitiful people."
Hopefully, they will be able to start a new life in Izumo Village.
I'll tell your father about what happened in Siping City when we get back, and see if he can investigate the people here. I have a feeling that these people are not simple.
"If they were just ordinary local officials, how could they be so audacious as to disregard the law completely?"
Ning Baoshi frowned.
"Mother, do you mean that the officials here, or the Liu family, have someone in the capital who is their backer?"
Su Jingshu nodded.
"Yes, those people in the capital have many henchmen in the local areas to build their own power."
Ning Bao sighed softly.
"Mother, I don't think the capital city is a good place either. People living there are always scheming against each other and guarding against each other. It's not as comfortable as living in our Chuyun Village!"
You see, in our Chuyun Village, if there's anything going on, just say it directly. If you have a conflict with someone, just have a fight.
After the argument is over, we'll still be good neighbors.
Unlike the capital, where people will seek assassination at the slightest provocation. Don't they know that life is only once and should be cherished?
Even if there's a chance to be reincarnated, the person they'll be reborn as won't be the one they're in this life.
Su Jingshu affectionately ruffled Ningbao's hair.
"You're just too kind, child..."
Lingling, who was pretending to doze off nearby, couldn't help but roll her eyes.
This was the funniest joke it had ever heard in its hundreds of years. Someone actually said that its master was kind. It thought that this person must be a little not very smart.
It glanced at the "not very bright" Su Jingshu, then changed its position and continued lying down.
Su Jingshu glanced at Lingling and continued,
"You have a kind heart. I don't know if bringing you back to the capital this time was the right thing to do or a wrong thing to do."
Ningbao shook her head and said coquettishly,
"Mother, don't worry, don't you know my personality?"
My kindness doesn't mean I'm easy to bully. My principle with your daughter has always been: 'I won't offend others unless they offend me; if they do, I'll eliminate them completely.'
However, you should be prepared that with my personality, I'll definitely cause trouble for you and Dad a lot when I get to the capital.
Oh no, that's not right.
When we arrive in the capital, I will address you as Father, Queen Mother, and Consort.
Is it Mother Consort?
"Call me whatever you want, it's just a nickname, as long as you're happy."
To be honest, I don't think calling the King and Queen "father" and "mother" is as down-to-earth as calling them "father" and "mother".
As for causing trouble, please don't say that again.
You are my lifeblood, and I love it when you cause me trouble.
Your father isn't someone who's afraid of trouble. Don't worry, your father returning to the capital is trouble in itself.
Our Zhenbei Prince's Mansion has never provoked trouble, but we are not afraid of trouble either.
"Your parents are here for you. Just remember not to let yourself get taken advantage of; they'll take care of everything else."
...
At this moment, inside the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion in the capital, Zhou Chengxing was extremely busy.
"To the right, to the right."
The left side is too high, so lower it a little.
Wipe this table again. How do you work? Can't you see the layer of dust on it?
And what is that thing in the pot over there? It's all wilted. Quickly go to the greenhouse and bring another one over.
At this moment, Butler Zhou came over.
"Your Highness, has the plaque for the Princess's courtyard been hung up yet?"
"Has the plaque arrived?"
Hang it up! Of course you should hang it up!
