Chapter 1095: Nanyun Lengyue and the Patriarch of the Wang Family Visit
Shangguan Ruoli had good eyesight and knew that Butler Zuo had something important to report when he saw his serious expression.
He stood up from the blanket and waited for the left butler to come over. He raised his hand to stop him from kneeling down and saluted, "No courtesy, let's talk about it."
Housekeeper Zuo knew that Shangguan Ruoli didn't like people kneeling around, so he didn't insist. He bowed and said: "Princess, Nanyun Lengyue and the head of the Wang family came to visit. They said that Wang Tianxing was missing in Yuancheng and asked us to help find him."
.”
Shangguan Ruoli laughed angrily, "Why is this Nanyun Lengyue so shameless? Let them give us an explanation about the assassin!"
Butler Zuo said helplessly: "I have said the same thing. They do not admit that those people are theirs. They also say that it was Nanyun Youhan who slandered them. They also invited the princess to come over and negotiate with the princess."
Shangguan Ruoli's eyes turned slightly, "Tell me, after something like this happened, Nanyun Lengyue and the head of the Wang family still dared to come to the door in person. Are they brave, or do they not want to live anymore?"
Butler Zuo said: "What the princess means is that there is a problem between these two people?"
Shangguan Ruoli said: "Think about it, Nanyun Lengyue and I are mortal enemies. There is no reason for him to come to my door when Dongming Ziyu is not around? Either he has a hole in his mind, or he is digging a hole for me to jump into.
"
Butler Zuo's expression turned cold, "I know what to do, catch them and see if they are disguised."
His moment of negligence almost put the princess in danger.
Shangguan Ruoli said: "Whether it is disguised or not, let them suffer a little first, otherwise they will think that I am easy to bully, and even a cat or a dog in the city lord's mansion can come in and make noise!"
Butler Zuo said respectfully: "Yes! Then I'll make arrangements right now!"
Shangguan Ruoli nodded, "Go ahead, trap them, put them in a secret cell for interrogation first."
Butler Zuo remembered something again and said, "Princess, Sassoon's illness is almost healed. She is clamoring to return to the princess to serve her."
Shangguan Ruoli said with a smile: "Okay, let her come back. First, serve me personally as before. When she is pregnant, let her go back and enjoy her leisure time."
Butler Zuo's eyes flashed slightly, his ears were a little red, and he said: "Yes!"
Shangguan Ruoli laughed. The left butler was not as shy as before. He probably consummated his marriage with Sassoon.
Rejoice came over with a plate of fruit, "Princess, Zhuangzi sent some peaches over, they are quite sweet."
Shangguan Ruoli pinched the silver skewer in the fruit bowl and ate a piece, "Nod, yes, it's quite sweet. Give some to a few teachers. It's quite hard to teach these little carrots every day."
Rejoice put the plate on the blanket and said with a smile: "The quantity is quite large. Mr. Xiao, General Hao, Doctor Bai, and several other gentlemen have all given some away."
Shangguan Ruoli nodded, indicating that she did a good job.
Rejoice saw the envelope placed on the blanket and asked, "Does the princess know about the capital?"
Shangguan Ruoli thought of his eldest son and said with a smile: "With Master Huiming and Jing Yu here, I feel relieved. Jing Yu also said that he would come back with the prince."
Rejoice secretly cursed, "Now you have become Master Huiming? Why don't you call this old thief Baldy?"
But he said with a smile: "I hope they catch the girl, otherwise it will be a disaster."
Shangguan Ruoli ate another piece of peach, "I don't want the girl to fall into the hands of Master Huiming. He is a monk and shouldn't kill the girl. This still leaves hidden dangers."
Rejoice agreed, and then said: "You said that Liya has become the queen, why do you want to take Miao Jiang to marry the emperor and become the queen? It's great to be the queen yourself. You have the final say on everything, and you can still recruit
Dozens of royal wives are waiting on you."
She didn't believe that a woman like Liya, who grew up in a palace full of intrigues and calculations, would be so crazy that she would sacrifice her country with both hands for the sake of love.
Shangguan Ruoli smiled and said: "That's right, if it were me, I would choose such a happy life. However, the witch doctors and herbal resources in Miao territory are stared at by Nanyun Lengyue and Nanyun Youhan. They both want to
I’m afraid I won’t be able to cope with this fat meal.”
Rejoice puzzled: "Isn't Miao territory already a vassal state of Dongming? The emperor has also increased troops on the border to support Miao territory at any time."
Shangguan Ruoli swallowed the peach in his mouth and said: "The price paid by the Miao Territory is also huge. The annual tribute is more than half of the Miao Territory's income. They also have to raise soldiers and support the royal family. How can such a big land have such a big thing?"
How much income? Miao territory has become a part of Dongming. Not only can Dongming be legitimately stationed and guarded, but the annual tribute can also be waived. The court even has to allocate money to support the officials there."
Rejoice sighed, "Even so, most of the Miao royal family must be opposed. Liya can do this despite the pressure. Her scheming and methods are not low. Those in the Dongming Palace may not be her opponent.
"
Shangguan Ruoli sighed: "The harem is a battlefield without blood. Without Liya, there will be Liyun, Lihua and the like. They will not stop fighting because of anyone."
"Mother...concubine!" Jing Xi staggered over.
Jingyang was also running behind him. He accidentally fell down and fell flat on his face. He didn't cry and got up by himself with his little butt stuck out.
Zhang Shanxing wanted to help him, but he waved his little arms and insisted on doing it himself.
Shangguan Ruoli smiled and said, "Let him get up on his own and don't worry about it."
Zhang Shanxing and several maids stepped aside and watched with a smile as the two little guys fell down and got up again, stumbling towards Shangguan Ruoli.
Shangguan Ruoli waited with open arms, "Come on, sons! You are great!"
When the two beautiful little guys received Mom's compliments, their eyebrows curved with joy, they giggled and threw themselves into Mom's warm and fragrant arms, and kissed each other coquettishly.
Then, their little hands pressed towards their food bags, moaning for milk.
Those little eyes are full of eagerness, fawning, and longing...
It almost made Shangguan Ruoli's heart cute.
However, this is not suitable for a large audience.
Besides, the two little guys are going to be one year and one month old, so we need to consider starting weaning.
Shangguan Ruoli kissed him and took the fruit plate with peaches, "Peach, a fruit you have never eaten before."
The two little guys were a little reluctant. They pressed their food bags and looked at the fruit plate with big eyes. They were obviously having an ideological struggle and didn't know what to choose.
At this time, Ling Yao, Gu Yunlan, Wang Mingxuan, and Wang Mingzhong ran over, followed by Zhang Shanxing and several other children of the same age who were in charge.
Ling Yao shouted: "I want to eat peaches, I want to eat peaches!"
Children are like this, rushing to eat to make it delicious. Jing Xi and Jing Yang are indeed twins, hugging the fruit plate.
General Zhang Shanxing hurriedly pinched a silver skewer to feed the two little guys who were guarding the food.
Rejoice asked the maids to wait on Ling Yao and several elders to wash their hands, and at the same time sent someone to bring more peaches.
Bai Qingqing walked over in a neat narrow-sleeved dress and shouted from a distance: "Hey! The front yard is bloody and bloody, but you guys are having a lot of fun."
