Chapter 14 Nong Xiaogao Borrowing a Boat

No matter what, Li Jie is also a former princess. Her noble temperament does not require pretense, and is incomparable to the country nobles like Lang Sang Mansion. The reason why she is not outstanding around Zhou Shixiong is because except for You Min, the women around Zhou Shixiong have similar identities. Everyone has a halo, so naturally they can't see strange things.

Li Jie has given up her plan to complete the task in a short time and does not take the initiative to say that she wants to find someone. Instead, she patiently socializes with these female relatives. Mudan and Mu Bi are following her side and memorize the information Li Jie has collected, and pay more attention to it as long as the surname is related to Ruan Phuc.

When Ma San arrived at the place where the servants were staying, he was not idle. He gathered among the crowd and listened to their chatting, and selected those related to Ruan Phuc's surname to record. He was no better than peony and wooden pen. Both women had genetic adjustments, and their memory was comparable to those that could be remembered. Ma San's hand was hidden in his sleeves, and he used his unique kung fu to record codes to write notes.

The prefect's office started to receive guests at noon, and it was not until the sun was on the west side that it started to set up tables. There was plenty of time. Others might find it too boring, but Li Jie and Ma San and others hoped that the time would be longer. However, the day would only last twelve hours, and this would not be changed because of someone's wishes.

"All male guests celebrate the birthday of the princess together, and the female family members came to the inner hall to celebrate their birthday." Ruan Phuc Bao's master announced the rules before the banquet. The princess came out of the middle hall to accept the congratulations, and toasted everyone with a glass of wine and transferred to the inner hall.

Li Jie followed the women into the inner hall. She originally wanted to find a seat back, but suddenly she heard the princess sitting in the host's house ask, "That's the owner of Baibaozhai, please come here."

Li Jie was stunned when she heard the voice. The voice of this person was so familiar. Could it be someone I knew? Li Jie was in a daze. Peony, who was following her, gently pulled Li Jie's sleeve, "Madam, the master, call you over."

Li Jie quickly straightened her dress and whispered, "You wait for me here, don't walk around." Then she walked towards the chairman's seat.

"You are the mistress of Baibaozhai? So young." In the middle of the chair, a middle-aged woman with beautiful eyes looked at Li Jie. Li Jie bowed and returned, "It's my family. I wish the princess a long life."

"Don't mention the princess. If you are a guest, don't be polite. Come and sit down." This woman is Zheng Song's wife, Princess Ping'an.

"Thank you Princess." Li Jie didn't care what the other party said. She was polite to you but couldn't do anything. She had already experienced this in the palace. She sat down in the seat, and Li Jie raised her head to thank her again. She could no longer take her eyes off the face of the princess!

"Mum." Li Jie never thought that the wife of Wang Zhengsong of Ping An was her wet nurse, Ruan Phuc Ah Jiang. Although she had been away from Jiaozhi for five or six years and the wet nurse, Ruan Phuc Ah Jiang, had been away from her for nearly ten years, but a thirty-year-old woman was not much different from a forty-year-old woman, and Li Jie recognized her at a glance!

"Huh?" Li Jie couldn't help but call her wet nurse. The princess frowned and looked at her, and suddenly her eyes widened and she stared at Li Jie in surprise.

"A Jiang, what's the matter?" The woman sitting next to A Jiang was Ruan Phuc's wife. When she saw her sister-in-law's expression strange, she asked hurriedly.

"It's okay, I have something to say to Bai Baozhai's mistress, "You can have a banquet." Ruan Phuc Ajiang stood up and walked towards Li Jie. Li Jie quickly stood up and followed Ruan Phuc Ajiang into the back house. The two of them didn't say a word until they walked into a bedroom. Ruan Phuc Ajiang asked the maids to go out and close the door.

"You are really~~~?" Ruan Phuket Ajiang looked at Li Jie carefully and finally asked in confusion.

Li Jie's eyes were already filled with tears. Unexpectedly, after so many years, she could see the wet nurse again. A sour smell arose. "Wet nurse!" Before Ruan Phuc Ajiang could talk about anything else, Li Jie suddenly threw herself into her arms and burst into tears.

Ruan Phuc Ajiang held Li Jie, who was more than twice as big as ten years ago. Looking back on her time in Shenglong Mansion, she had already clearly confirmed that this girl was her own flesh. "Heart and soul! I'm not dreaming, right?" The two women cried. Ruan Phuc Ajiang held Li Jie's little face and looked left and right, fearing that everything in front of her was just a dream, and that everything she saw was illusion.

"Mum, I miss you so much." This sentence triggered a flood again. It was not until Nguyen Phucbao's wife came to ask about the news that the two stopped. "A Xiu, please have a social event on my behalf. I want to entertain the VIPs here."

"Mum, my identity is probably not suitable for public disclosure, so it's better not to be public." Li Jie returned to the Northern Vietnamese Dynasty not to come back to visit her relatives, but to find help for Zhou Shixiong. Once her identity is revealed, as the princess of the Li Dynasty in the southern region, her actions in the northern region of Ruan Dynasty may be subject to many restrictions. Maybe someone will go crazy and it is unknown if she arrested her and presented it to the king of the Nguyen Dynasty, Nguyen Phuc.

Ruan Phuket slapped his forehead and said with a smile, "Oh, I'm so happy. The princess is right."

"Mum, you'd better ask me to jump. I've been no princess for a long time." Li Jie deliberately drew a line with the former princess' identity. In addition to self-protection, she also needed to highlight another identity because of what she had to do next.

"No matter whether it is a princess or not, my home is your home. Come and tell Mum how you have lived over the years." That night, Li Jie did not leave the prefect's yamen. Ma San and others were told that the princess liked your mistress very much and kept her idle for a few days. If Li Jie hadn't written a note to reassure everyone, Ma San would have the idea of ​​leading people to attack the prefect's yamen.

At noon the next day, Li Jie and Ruan Phuket A Jiang returned to Baibaozhai together, "Mum, this Ma San is the manager sent by my husband. Just leave the business matters to him." Sitting down at Baibaozhai's inner house, Li Jie introduced several close people around him one by one.

"Princess, your husband wants to open up a commercial road in Lang Sang Mansion. Isn't he doing a good job now? What else do you need Mum to do?" Ruan Phuc Ah Jiang talked with Li Jie all night, but Li Jie didn't hide anything from her and told her everything about herself and Zhou Shixiong. I hope Ruan Phuc Ah Jiang can help Li Jie gain a foothold in Lang Sang Mansion.

After visiting Baibaozhai, Ruan Phuket Ah Jiang felt that this was already very good, and there seemed to be nothing to need his own help. Li Jie shook her head, "Mum, although my husband is named an imperial envoy, the court has a low influence on the south. My husband does not want to participate in the court disputes and is determined to live a peaceful life. Based on the situation in Xiangzhou, you should know that there are many mountains and few lands. The people attack each other and fight each other continuously. There is a place to settle down. So my husband wants to buy some wasteland in Lang San Prefecture. If there are any changes in Xiangzhou, there are many places to settle down."

Li Jie's words were not false. Ruan Phuket Ajiang thought for a while and nodded, "The trick of cunning rabbits in three holes should be like this. Let's do it. I'll go back and ask my elder brother to draw a piece of land on the left river. It is Mum's dowry to give to the princess. This is Mum's intention, so don't refuse." Ruan Phuket Ajiang made the final decision and solved the biggest troubles of Li Jie and others. Sending off Ruan Phuket Ajiang, Li Jie and Ma San wrote letters to Zhoujiazhuang respectively to report good news to Zhou Shixiong.

At the end of August, Nong Xiaogao knew that the second elder was uncooperative, so he had to set off to rush to Liangshan City and ask for help from his boss behind the scenes. The Tayy tribe was originally one of the big tribes of Langshan Prefecture. When Mo Dengyong was in chaos, he defected to the Nguyen Phu clan in the Jing tribe. Zheng Song defeated Mo Dengyong, and Ruan Phu clan made a lot of efforts. Jung Song got married with Ruan Phu clan and awarded the Nguyen Phu clan to seven of the eleven towns of the Northern Vietnamese Dynasty. Therefore, before Zheng Song was defeated, the Nguyen Phu clan had actually ruled most of the northern Vietnamese states.

Nong Xiaogao successfully took over as the patriarch because he advocated surrendering to the Nguyen Phuc family. With the support of Nguyen Phuc family, Nguyen Phuc family suppressed the power of the great elder and the second elder. Now Nguyen Phuc family is threatened, so he naturally demanded help from the Nguyen Phuc family. However, it is very interesting that Nguyen Phuc family defected to Nguyen Phuc family, but his master was not the prefect of Lang Shan Prefecture, but the prefect of Xuan Guang Prefecture, Nguyen Phuc is the cousin of Nguyen Phuc family. The two had no harmonious relationship.

The Xuan Guang Mansion where Nguyen Phuc Detention is located is many times better than that of Lang Sang Mansion. It is a hundred miles away from the Chung-Duan of the Northern Vietnamese Dynasty. It is the largest prefecture in the northern Vietnamese Dynasty. Whether it is transportation, commerce or arable land, it is one of the best in the Northern Vietnamese Dynasty. Lang Sang Mansion is located in a barren border. Even if Nguyen Phuc is capable, it is not as good as the Xuan Guang Mansion.

If Nguyen Phu Ah Jiang had not married into the Zheng family and became Princess Ping An and Zheng Song would have strong support to Lang Sang Mansion, Nguyen Phu's life would have been better than it is now.

Nong Xiaogao really wanted to go to Xuan Guang Mansion to ask for help, but the distance water could not relieve the near thirst. The only one who could take out a large number of ships in Lang Sang Mansion was the prefect of the prefect Nguyen Phu. The navy of Lang Sang Mansion was the pioneering move since Nguyen Phu took office. Nguyen Phuo asked Zheng Song to form the Lang Sang Marine Army on the grounds that the border army was weak in combat and could not resist the Ming Dynasty guards. In addition, the water bandits were rampant, and the two rivers and three rivers in Lang Sang Mansion were crisscrossed. Without naval forces, he asked Zheng Song to form the Lang Sang Marine Army.

The establishment of the naval army for seven years in Lang Sang Prefecture, and there were no traces of water bandits in Lang Sang Prefecture, which shows that the role of the navy is very huge. The business road between Zhennan Pass and Shenglong Prefecture has also benefited greatly. With this, Nguyen Phuo Bao's status in the Northern Vietnamese Dynasty has soared. Even if Zheng Song was defeated in the power struggle, he could still protect Zheng Song's princess Nguyen Phu A Jiang, the sister, from invasion.

Nong Xiaogao knew that he was not qualified to ask the prefect to send a navy army to help, and he only hoped to borrow a few military ships from the prefect to transport the Guangyuan army across the river. For this reason, Nong Xiaogao brought a lot of money and hoped that the rent would impress Nguyen Phuc.

Before meeting Nong Xiaogao, Ruan Phu Bao was having a headache about her sister's new request. Ruan Phu Ah Jiang did not talk about Li Jie, but just an excuse that she could not live in her elder brother's house for a long time, causing unnecessary trouble for her elder brother. But if you don't live here, you need a place where she can be placed. Anyway, Ruan Phu Ah Jiang is also a princess, and buying a house in the city may not be worthy of her identity.
