Li also noticed Ren Shimin's clothes and quickly asked, "master, do you want to take a bath first?"

Ren Shimin looked down at his clothes and frowned: "I've been used to wearing these days. I just feel smelly when you remind me. Go and prepare some hot water."

Li's busy down to order people to boil water, to take clothes to Ren Shimin.

Ren Yaoqi came over and said, "Dad, is not your journey peaceful?"

Ren Shimin stretched out his hand and pushed Ren Yao's head away: "don't lean on me. Dad smells bad."

Ren Yao period said with a smile: "dogs don't dislike mother ugliness, I don't dislike father stink."

Ren Shimin can't laugh or cry, but he doesn't drive her away: "originally, I planned to go to the Mid Autumn Festival banquet in the palace, but it was delayed by one thing, and then it was a big and small banquet."

"Oh? What's the big deal? " Or is Xiao Jingxi's condition worse? Is the return journey a problem? Ren Yaoqi could not help worrying.

Ren Shimin took the tea from the servant girl, but he didn't pay attention to it any more. He lifted the lid of the bowl and drank it. Fortunately, the weather is cold now, and the tea can be served in the mouth.

Ren Shimin drank two mouthfuls of hot tea and then said, "it's big and big, and it's small. The second young master Xiao showed his face at the literary contest. Somehow, he was seen by Yan Xiang's wife. Mrs. Yan said to the Empress Dowager that he wanted to marry the daughter of Yan's family to the second young master. "

Ren Yao period smell speech a Leng: "Miss Yan?"

Ren Yaoqi remembered that in her last life, Miss Yan also fell in love with Xiao Jingxi, and finally she had to chase him to Yanbei.

"Isn't it that Mr. Xiao is ill?" Ren Yaoqi asked, it seems that he should not be seriously ill.

Ren Shimin nodded: "the second young master showed up at the fight, and has been recuperating in other places. Only when the last Mid Autumn Festival banquet can't be absent, did he come out for a while." Speaking of this, Ren Shimin sighed, "I don't know how the second master Xiao is now."

Ren Yaoqi frowned: "he didn't come back with you this time?"

Ren Shimin sighed: "the emperor and the Empress Dowager didn't want to let people go before, but they finally managed to get away. However, the road was not very peaceful. They met two assassins one after another. Finally, the second childe Xiao suggested that he go away from us. After that, the carriage of the second Duke Xiao disappeared. But after he left, the road was peaceful. Look Those assassins are still aiming at Mr. Xiao. "

After hearing this, Ren Yaoqi's heart, which had already been put down, hung up again.

Xiao Jingxi hasn't come back yet.

Another assassin? Ren Yaoqi can't help but think about the assassination incident and the poison on his body when he was riding in his carriage. How many times in a year does Ren Yaoqi encounter?

Ren Yaoqi also wanted to ask Ren Shimin some details, but at this time Li came over and said that the bath water was ready. Please let Ren Shimin take a bath. Ren Yaoqi looked at Ren Shimin's tired face. After all, he still held back. He wanted to wait for Ren Shimin to have a rest and ask again.

A few days after Ren San's return, Xiao Jingxi still has no news. However, for some reason, the Yanbei palace did not publicize the fact that the second master Xiao did not return to Yanbei. Even when he was re elected, they were all told not to say much. However, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yijun said that on the official road leading to Kyoto recently, there were more than twice as many people coming and going than usual.

On the surface, the situation outside is still calm, but underneath is already a hair trigger tension.

When Ren Shimin was still in Kyoto before, Mr. Ren sent people to Kyoto to inquire about news. Now Ren Shimin is back, but the person who inquires for information has brought a letter from the second old master who is far away in Kyoto.

This morning, Ren Laoye summoned the adult men of Ren's family, and Ren Shimin also went. After he came back, he had a good rest for a few days, and finally slowly slowed down.

When Ren Yaoqi learned about it, he told him that he knew it. As soon as Ren San came back, he would report it to her. Ren Yaoqi guessed that the letter from the second old master should be about Ren's family's coal warehouse in the south, which may have something to do with Fang yacun.

Since Ren Yaoqi knew about the relationship between Fang yacun and Duke Lu, she paid attention to the news of Kyoto.

At noon, when Ren Shimin came back, Ren Yaoqi went to his study to look for him.

Ren Shimin wondered why his daughter would care about these trivial matters, but he still said to Ren Yaoqi in a good temper: "my father said that because of the help of the Fang family, Ren's coal mine in the south of the Yangtze River has improved. It is said that Ren's family may open another four coal stacks in the area of Kyoto next year, and relevant documents are already in preparation. "

Ren Yaoqi tentatively said: "I remember that the coal stack in Kyoto needs very complicated documents, and it costs a lot of money to dredge relations?"

Ren Shimin thought for a while and said, "listen to my father, it seems that there is something valuable to help."

Ren Yaoqi pursed her lips and asked in a stiff voice, "what noble person?"

"This My father didn't seem to say that Ren Shimin is embarrassed to say that he did not pay attention to listen.Ren Yaoqi lowered his head and whispered, "where are so many cheap things in the world? What other people give you, they always hope to get more return from you, but I don't know when it's time for anyone to give you what they want. "

"What's the reward? No one is short of money. " Ren Shimin doesn't care about Tao.

Ren Yaoqi sighed. She remembered Ren Shimin's saying that after the Spring Festival, he might be going to teach in Yunyang Academy. She asked, "Dad, how much salary will the Academy give you every year if you go to teach in Yunyang academy?"

Ren Shimin took a strange look at Ren Yaoqi and frowned: "money is just something outside your body. Yao Yao, don't pay too much attention to these things. If you lack any father, let someone buy it for you. As far as the academy is concerned, I'm going to discuss with Mr. Xu that he won't get a monthly salary. "

Ren San didn't care about the money at all. He went to the academy only because there were many like-minded people there. He could study the things he was interested in with them. He benefited a lot on his way to Kyoto.

Ren Yaoqi knew this would happen.

She sighed and said, "Dad, it's not that I care about the things outside my body, but do you remember that the five rooms were punished for one year before?"

Ren San suddenly said, "Oh, this? I remember. The fifth younger brother also came to me to borrow money, but he didn't know how. His father knew about it and asked someone to take it away. He also said that if I dare to secretly give money to the fifth younger brother, I would be punished together. "

Ren Yao period nodded: "this year five uncle they how, you also saw?"

If Mr. Ren said that he would not give money, he would not give it. Originally, Mrs. Ren had a lot of dowries, so it was not a problem to support the expenses of the five houses. However, most of the dowries of Ren Wu's wife were valuable jewelry. After she pawned it for several times, the fifth master would not allow her to borrow money from her mother's family.

It was the time for Mrs. Ren Wu to marry in. The dowry given by the Lin family was the best. Many people have seen it. As soon as some things are taken out, others will know. The fifth master is also a man of face. He wants his wife to support him with dowry. He feels that there is no place for his face.

However, if Mrs. Ren did not take out the money to subsidize her, and the master could not give her any money, she immediately ran out of money. Mrs. Ren Wu had not suffered such an injustice. She could not hold on for half a year, and began to sell jewelry secretly.

The fifth master, who had never talked to his wife loudly for more than ten years, lost his temper and quarreled with his wife. They ignored each other for more than half a year, and only recently have they gradually eased down.

"Dad, what if one day you are punished by your grandfather?"

"This Not really? "

Ren Yaoqi shook his head: "not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. So you should take the salary from Yunyang academy first. If you don't want to spend it, you can donate it to the Academy in a few years to build a painting gallery or a library? You have earned all this money yourself, which is different from the art gallery built with Ren's money. "

Ren Shimin was said to move his heart, thought and nodded: "that's how to do it."

The next day, Ren Shimin was invited to Yunyang Academy. All the people who came back from Kyoto with Ren Shimin were going to give lectures at Yunyang Academy. Ren Yaoqi wanted to send a message to the princess. Mrs. Ren wanted Ren Yaoqi to go to the palace more often and get on well with the princess, so she was allowed.

However, what Ren Yaoqi didn't expect was that she had just arrived in Yunyang city. The first thing she heard was that Wu Xiaohe, the general soldier of Ningxia, died suddenly.

Although Ren Yaoqi vaguely remembers that Wu Xiao and the time of his death were just like this, she could not help but change her face at that moment.

Now the whole city of Yunyang is bustling with the news.

Everyone knows that Wu Xiaohe, the general soldier of Ningxia, is the brother-in-law of the king of Yanbei. Wu Xiaohe has the military power of the whole Ningxia in his hands. He plays an important role in the stability of the border areas in Northwest China.

However, the position of Ningxia commander-in-chief is somewhat special. He is hereditary. He is passed on from Laozi to his son, and then from his son to his grandson. Unfortunately, Wu Xiaohe has no son. He has only one only daughter.

The vacuum of military power in Northwest China brought about by Wu Xiaohe's sudden death, though only for a short time, will certainly make all forces ready to stir.

But at this time, Xiao Jingxi has no news, and I don't know if Ping An has come back.

Xiaoyan, together with the letter, left a few letters to her.
