The inner voice was overheard, and the whole court was eating melons together
Chapter 249 Return to Hanguan City
Chen Yixiao and Ning Chaoyun were stunned when they heard Song Yaoyao's bold words!
It seems that Song Yaoyao really doesn't want to get married, otherwise she wouldn't come up with such bad ideas!
They all looked at Song Yaoyao with complicated eyes!
Song Yaoyao is a rebellious person by nature, if she is pushed into a corner, she might really do it!
Song Yaoyao had just learned to ride a horse, and Ying Huiyan didn't know how to ride a horse, so the two of them rode on one horse. Even so, they were still much faster than riding in a carriage.
By the afternoon of the next day, they had arrived at Hanguan City.
When Grandma Ning saw Song Yaoyao, she took her hand and looked at her for a long time before saying:
"Yaoyao, you've been gone for several months. Grandma has been thinking about you every day. She sent letters to your grandpa several times, asking when you would be back. Your grandpa always said soon.
After waiting for so long, you are finally back.
Look at your face, it's so thin, grandma has to give you some nourishment."
Song Yaoyao touched her face. She didn't feel thin. She understood: there is a kind of thinness called, grandma thinks you are thin.
Song Yaoyao didn't want to reject the old man's intention, so she said:
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, grandma."
Guagua asked: [Host, aren't we in a hurry to return to the capital? ]
Song Yaoyao: [It's rare for me to come out on business. I plan to stay in Hanguan City for a few days to accompany my grandmother before returning to the capital. I don't know when we will meet again.
Don't worry, I will definitely be able to return to the capital before the New Year. 】
When Grandma Ning heard the conversation between Song Yaoyao and Guagua, she had an idea in her mind.
Grandma Ning had prepared a lot of things early on, ready for Song Yaoyao to take back to the capital. She thought Yaoyao would return to the capital immediately. Now she was very happy to hear that she could accompany her for a few days.
The next day, all the Ning family's children in Hanguan City, even the married daughters, returned to the Ning family, and everyone had a reunion dinner together.
Song Yaoyao didn't go out either and stayed with her family the whole time.
On the third day, someone sent an invitation saying that Ruyi Tower in Hanguan City was going to hold a charity sale. All the proceeds would be donated to Grandpa Ning's army, and the Ning family and the Sixth Prince were invited to attend.
Song Yaoyao sent the post to Chen Yixiao:
"have a look."
Chen Yixiao took the post and looked at it, then put it on the table and said:
“Heh, they know my whereabouts very well.
However, as long as I can raise some military funds and make the soldiers live a better life, I won’t mind it.”
Ning Chaoyun also saw the invitation. It was obvious that this charity sale was aimed at Chen Yixiao.
They have been in Hanguan City for so many years, but have never heard of any charity sale.
Next, they did not talk about this topic anymore. Chen Yixiao asked about Hanguan City instead.
When Chen Yixiao arrived in Hanguan City before, he heard that Song Yaoyao had gone to Tianxuan Country, so he went to Tianxuan Country without stopping. He had never really gotten to know Hanguan City in detail.
While Ning Chaoyun was introducing Hanguan City, Song Yaoyao and Gua Gua also started chatting.
Song Yaoyao: [Guagua, what's going on with this charity sale? ]
Guagua: [Didn’t you all see it? This charity sale is aimed at Chen Yixiao.]
Song Yaoyao: [Tell me more about it! ]
Gua Gua: [Okay, host.
This has to start with the batch of weapons from our Tianfeng Country.
Since having that batch of weapons, it can be said that the army led by your grandfather has been invincible. They have captured several cities in a row with very few casualties.
Especially in a city like Yucheng, the commander opened the city gate and surrendered without much attack.
If this momentum continues, it won’t be long before Tianfeng Kingdom will be able to completely occupy Tianxuan Kingdom.
This charity sale was jointly initiated by the wealthy merchants from the cities that your grandfather had occupied after discussion. 】
Song Yaoyao: [The purpose of their charity sale should not be simply to raise funds for the army, right? ]
Guagua: [Not bad.
They felt that they used to be from Tianxuan Kingdom, and now that the city was occupied by Tianfeng Kingdom, they were afraid that the emperor of Tianfeng Kingdom would come up with policies targeting wealthy businessmen like them.
Among the four classes of people, scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants were originally the lowest class, and they were afraid that the emperor of Tianfeng Kingdom would take action against them.
Therefore, after discussing, they wanted to flatter Chen Yixiao in advance, hoping that after he returned to Beijing, he would speak well of these merchants in front of the emperor and not kill them all. 】
Song Yaoyao: [Are they thinking too much?
The emperor is not bored, so why would he target these former merchants from Tianxuan Country? 】
Guagua: [Their concerns are well-founded. Such things have happened in history.
The host should know that many merchants are related to court officials.
Of course there are exceptions, but they are a minority.
To put it bluntly, merchants who have connections with the imperial court are just shopkeepers; they are not the real owners of the shops.
Their master might be someone from the imperial city of Tianxuan Nation. They are afraid that Tianfeng Nation will conduct a thorough investigation. Once the truth is revealed, it is hard to say what will be waiting for them. 】
Song Yaoyao: [I see.]
Gua Gua: [Now these cities of Tianxuan Kingdom have been occupied by Tianfeng Kingdom, and these shopkeepers have lost contact with their masters.
Although they are just shopkeepers, they want to live as long as there is a little hope.
In order to save their lives, they can't care less.
In this charity sale, they are sacrificing money to save their lives. 】
Song Yaoyao: [I understand.
Guagua, what about that Ruyi Tower? What's its background?
I remember there is also Ruyi Tower in Beijing, but I have never been there. 】
Gua Gua: [Ruyilou is the largest auction house on this continent. It is a chain store with branches in four countries.
Ruyi Tower does not belong to any of the four countries.
The legendary Ruyi Tower is very mysterious. The people in the tower are capable of some mysterious tricks. No one dares to offend them, and no one knows who the real master of Ruyi Tower is? 】
Song Yaoyao: [Is Ruyi Tower so awesome?
Guagua, tell me about its details. 】
Gua Gua: [Okay, host.
In fact, the master behind Ruyi Tower is from the Wu clan...】
Guagua was about to continue talking when Chen Yixiao interrupted their conversation and asked Song Yaoyao:
"Master Xiao Song, are you interested in going to visit Hanguan City with us?
I heard that the barbecue in Hanguan City is really special. Do you want to go and try it? I’ll treat you!”
Speaking of eating, Song Yaoyao suddenly became energetic and asked:
"Really? Since you said you'd like to treat me, I won't be polite."
"no problem."
When we arrived at Hanguan City, we were already in the territory of Tianfeng Country. More and more people could hear Song Yaoyao's thoughts.
The reason why Chen Yixiao interrupted her conversation with Gua Gua was that he didn't want them to continue talking about the witch clan, so as not to bring trouble upon themselves.
