Quickly Transmigrate to Save the Child of Heaven
Chapter 139 Mo Yuyunjian Wan Ning 4
After Wan Ning left, Xiao Heng and the Emperor were puzzled as to why Wan Ning had fallen for Xiao Heng. Remember, the Xiao family and King Cheng had a feud over the murder of their son.
The emperor was very puzzled by this question: "I really can't understand why she fell in love with you?" He looked at Xiao Heng with confusion in his eyes.
Xiao Heng also frowned, feeling equally confused: "I don't know either. Perhaps this is a conspiracy between Prince Cheng and the Princess."
The Emperor: "You should speed up the investigation of the illegal mining to prevent Prince Cheng from rebelling..."
Xiao Heng: "Yes, Your Majesty..."
Wan Ning returned to the princess's mansion and asked Tianshan Tonglao to deliver the gunpowder ratio formula exchanged from the system to King Cheng.
Tianshan Tonglao: "Princess, what will happen to your safety after I leave..."
Wan Ning: "It's okay, I'm the eldest princess. They don't dare to attack me easily, you go first..."
She then instructed her maid to fetch Jiang Li, for she had a plan. She planned to open a treasure shop and have Jiang Li manage it. This way, they could earn money from running the shop and use it to support King Cheng's army. If all went well, they wouldn't have to worry about lacking resources when they needed military supplies.
Jiang Li: "Princess, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Wan Ning: "I'm planning to open a treasure shop selling rouge and powder, and you'll be the one managing it. Can you do it?"
Jiang Li hesitated and said, "Princess, I recognize the words, maybe..."
Wan Ning: "Don't worry, I'll have someone teach you. Here are the recipes for various soaps and rouge and powder, keep them..."
Jiang Li: "Yes, I will go through fire and water to help Your Highness manage it..."
Wan Ning: "Go back first. Someone will come to teach you later. Then we'll take you there..."
Jiang Li: "I'll take my leave..." Wan Ning watched Jiang Li's figure gradually disappear. After Jiang Li completely left, she breathed a sigh of relief and secretly pondered her next plan.
She expertly opened the system and exchanged her points for a character card. On this card was the image of the remarkable woman, Zhou Ying. Wan Ning gazed at Zhou Ying on the card, her eyes gleaming with determination. She tapped the button to use the character card, and instantly, a flash of light shone, and Zhou Ying's figure appeared before her. Zhou Ying had a graceful figure, a beautiful face, and a look in her eyes that revealed intelligence and determination.
She knelt down without hesitation and said respectfully, "Master." Wan Ning looked at Zhou Ying with a smile, her heart full of anticipation. She knew that Zhou Ying was a master in business, and with her guidance, Jiang Li would surely achieve great success in the business world.
Wan Ning said softly, "Zhou Ying, from today on, you will be Jiang Li's mentor. I hope you can pass on your business experience and wisdom to her and help her become an outstanding businesswoman." Zhou Ying nodded and replied, "Master, rest assured, I will do my best to teach Jiang Li."
From then on, Zhou Ying began to meticulously mentor Jiang Li. Starting with the most basic business knowledge, she gradually delved deeper, imparting her years of business experience to Jiang Li without reservation. Jiang Li was also very diligent and eager to learn. She listened carefully to Zhou Ying's teachings, constantly thinking and putting them into practice.
Under Zhou Ying's guidance, Jiang Li's business talent gradually emerged. She learned how to analyze the market, seize business opportunities, and work with others. Wan Ning's Treasure Pavilion gradually gained fame in the capital, generating a fortune. Wan Ning sent all the money she earned to King Cheng, and warned him that Shen Yurong could not be trusted.
So King Cheng wrote back: "Wan Ning, don't worry. Take care of yourself, protect your safety, and wait for your brother!" Wan Ning smiled at the letter. She had actually made up her mind. If she could be with Xiao Heng in the end, they would be together. If not, forget it. When her brother, King Cheng, ascended the throne, she would travel around the mountains and rivers.
Xiao Heng received news that a new treasure pavilion had appeared in the capital, making a fortune every day, and he suspected it belonged to the eldest princess. So he decided to go to the princess's mansion in the middle of the night to investigate...
That night, the moonlight shone like water across the courtyard of the princess's mansion. Princess Wanning ordered her maid to prepare hot water, intending to bathe before bed. She entered the bathroom, gently untied her belt, and half-dressed, revealing her fair shoulders.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps, and then the door was flung open, and Xiao Heng rushed in. Princess Wan Ning was startled and quickly covered her body with clothes. She glared at Xiao Heng and said, "Duke Su, what is your intention in visiting the princess's mansion at night?"
Xiao Heng looked at Princess Wan Ning, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He took a deep breath and said, "Princess, I didn't know you were bathing. I'm sorry." He quickly turned around...
Princess Wanning frowned, put on her clothes, and said, "What's the matter? Can't we discuss it tomorrow? How can you come to the princess's mansion at night like this? How can you be so rude?"
Xiao Heng looked at the woman before him. Although he harbored deep hatred for her, he couldn't help but feel a surge of affection. He suppressed his emotions and asked, "Princess, I'd like to ask, does the Treasure Pavilion belong to you?"
After hearing this, Wan Ning's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile. She suddenly reached out and put her arms around Xiao Heng's neck. Xiao Heng tried to break free, but found that he couldn't move at all. His heartbeat quickened, and a blush appeared on his face.
Wan Ning smiled gently, her voice a little charming: "Duke Su, it's late at night and there is no one around, what do you think we should do..." As she spoke, she blew a breath at Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng suddenly caught a whiff of the faint scent of jasmine, a scent that stirred his heart. His face turned even redder, and his eyes grew hazy. He had never been so close to a woman before, let alone the sister of his enemy, King Cheng!
Wan Ning observed his expression and said with a sweet smile, "Duke Su, you can ask General Xiao. Perhaps he knows something you don't..." Then she turned and left, waiting for Wan Ning to leave. Xiao Heng hurriedly left the Princess's Mansion and was about to report to the Emperor when he remembered what Wan Ning had said. So he decided to go back to Duke Su's Mansion to find his grandfather. General Xiao had just received a message from his subordinates: "Back then, the old emperor plotted to kill his own son and frame King Cheng, and then allowed the current young emperor to contact his grandson in order to make the Xiao family work wholeheartedly for his royal family..." Seeing this, General Xiao felt a wave of sadness in his heart. When the cunning rabbit dies, the good dog is cooked.
Xiao Heng walked into the yard and saw his grandfather sitting on a stone bench with tears streaming down his cheeks. He hurried over and asked with concern, "Grandpa, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?"
General Xiao raised his head and looked at Xiao Heng, his eyes filled with pain and anger, as if a flame was burning. He said in a trembling voice, "Heng'er, we were set up by the old emperor. Your father's death was not caused by Prince Cheng, but by him! He put the blame on Prince Cheng, hoping that we would both suffer losses in a fight with Prince Cheng."
Xiao Heng stared at his grandfather with his eyes wide open, looking at him in disbelief. It was as if thousands of needles were piercing his heart. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "Damn it!"
General Xiao held Xiao Heng's hand, shook his head and said, "Heng'er, now is not the time. We need to calm down and think of a countermeasure. Since the old emperor dared to take action against us, it means he is ready."
Xiao Heng took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "Grandpa is right. Does the emperor know? Was everything planned by them back then..."
General Xiao pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know if he knows it, but your father died because of him, just to make the Xiao family work for him wholeheartedly and fight King Cheng to the death!"
