MTL - Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!-Chapter 727 new year
That night, after Chu Nanzhi took care of Erbao and Sibao and fell asleep, she kept thinking about how to arrange the way back.
The shortest journey from Jingling City to Luyan Port is naturally along the Jinglu Canal, which is three to five days faster than going by land.
It’s just that it’s even more difficult to get out of danger when encountering danger on the water.
After thinking for a long time, she finally decided to return to Luyan Port by land.
On the day of leaving Beijing, she decided to set it at the Lantern Festival after much deliberation.
It is said that there is no curfew in Beijing at this night, and it is very lively.
It was how to take Xie Jingchen away from the capital without anyone noticing, which made her feel a little headache.
The disciple is not a master who is willing to be dominated by himself.
But thinking of the stability of Pingning Prefecture, this time no matter what, Dengtuzi must be driven back to the ten clans of Baiyu.
Made up her mind, early the next morning she changed into a new butterfly-pattern yellow shirt, put on a thick gray brocade robe, and started preparing for the new year after freshening up.
Thinking about wronging the rest of the servants in the house because of the Xiangyue incident a few days ago, she specially ordered Sang Qi to seal an extra two taels of silver for each of them.
And she herself wrapped four taels of silver lucky money in red silk for each of the five little guys.
Hearing the movement in the room, Erbao Lin Ruixi and Sibao Lin Ruijia both woke up.
Seeing the bulging money bag on the tea table, the two little guys ran over in a hurry and couldn't wait to get dressed, and happily called out, "Auntie, did you also prepare the lucky money for us?"
"of course."
Chu Nanzhi held the most important money bags and waved them in front of the little ones: "This year, your father has become a high-ranking official, and your mother has a salary. Naturally, I want to prepare more lucky money for you."
As she spoke, the topic changed: "But you have to obediently follow Sister Sangqi to get dressed before I can give you money."
Erbao Lin Ruixi looked up at the bulging money bag in his mother's hand, and said with a sullen mouth, "Mother, can we keep this money for ourselves?"
In previous years, Lin Jinxiao would symbolically seal over ten taels of money for each of the little ones. When the Chu family was rich, Liu Yun would give five or six liang of silver to the little ones, but it didn't take long for them to The original owner confiscated them all.
Thinking of those old things, Chu Nanzhi smiled wryly and patted the foreheads of the two little ones: "Now that you have grown up, you can keep and manage the lucky money by yourself."
The two little ones immediately burst into joy when they heard it, and hurriedly took Sang Qi to the bedroom to put on the new clothes prepared by their great-grandmother.
Seeing Erbao and Sibao so happy, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but think of Lin Jinxiao again.
I brought all four of his little treasures to the middle of the capital. It was the day of family reunion, and it seemed a little cold for him to watch this New Year's Eve alone.
Judging from the situation at the night banquet yesterday, Lin Jinke may have already known the background of the little boy, otherwise why would he and the queen mother suddenly mention that they want the boy to come to Beijing.
Looking at the money bag on the table, she suddenly had some bad premonitions in her heart.
"Yang Runchen once wanted to murder the little boy several times in order to completely break the minds of the ancestors and the emperor. Now if King Qinghe doesn't want the boy to enter Beijing smoothly, the most convenient way is to send someone to assassinate him."
Thinking of this, Chu Nanzhi suddenly remembered a person in his mind, and that was Sili Xiaowei Kang Xiu.
He has a strong army under his hands, and it is no problem for a strong army of 1,200 Zhongdu officials to take down the entire Pingning Palace.
After all, in order to build a racecourse, I had already stationed most of the royal guards at the foot of Nanhua Mountain. If I hadn’t told the little boy to take precautions in advance, once Lin Jinke really moved his mind, the safety of the little boy would be unpredictable.
It's just who should tell him about his life experience?
If you let the people around you rush back to send a letter, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of Lin Jinke's party, and this kind of thing cannot be conveyed by letter.
If you want to get the news from Beijing to Lin Jinxiao before Lin Jinke makes a move, you need a more secure and convenient method of transmission.
Chu Nanzhi thought hard in her mind for a while, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
She remembered that before she came to Beijing, the little boy mentioned that Princess Jinshu had a dark net all over the northern border, which was just in time to come in handy.
If Ji Huaishu was informed of this matter first, and let this respected Shang Shuling talk to Lin Jinxiao about the past, it should be possible for the little boy to accept this fact calmly.
Made up her mind, after the second treasure and the fourth treasure had changed into new clothes, she handed over the two money bags she had prepared to the little ones, and let Sang Qi carry the rest of the trays containing the money bags out of the room.
In the courtyard, everyone was congratulating each other on the new year. Dabao Lin Ruiwen and Sanbao Lin Ruichong held several bulging money bags in their hands. Seeing the figure of Chu Nanzhi coming out, Sanbao subconsciously hid the money bags in his hands behind his back up.
This scene made Chu Nanzhi dumbfounded.
She pretended not to see, and waved to Dabao, Sanbao and Shen Yunqing: "Today is the new year, mother has prepared silver for each of you, quickly come to mother."
Sanbao Lin Ruichong looked at the money bag in her hand, but stood there in a daze, refusing to move. He hesitated for a long time before shaking his head and saying, "Niang, no need, I've grown up, and I don't need my new year's money this year." .”
Shen Yunqing and Dabao Lin Ruiwen were very sincere, and walked forward obediently.
Dabao directly handed over the year-old money sealed by Liu Yun, Grandpa Chang, and Grandpa Nie to Chu Nanzhi, and after looking at the three money bags with some reluctance, he replied decisively: "Mother, this is Grandpa Chang, The New Year's money that Grandpa Nie and Grandma just gave us."
Erbao and Sibao watched from the sidelines, giggling at Dabao's distressed expression.
Seeing that the two elder brothers were afraid that the mother would be greedy for the lucky money like in previous years, Sibao quickly explained: "Big brother, third brother, Auntie has already said that this year our lucky money will be kept by us."
"Really?"
Hearing this, Sanbao immediately approached with a smile on his face, handed all the purses he had hidden into Chu Nanzhi's hands, and said cheerfully: "Aniang, if that's the case, I think I can ask Aniang to give it to you this year." lucky money."
"Brat."
Chu Nanzhi patted his little head angrily: "Didn't you just say no, now I don't have to give it to you if you want it."
"Aniang, can I exchange the New Year's money given by Grandpa Chang, Grandpa Nie and Grandma for yours?"
Sanbao looked at the money bag in her hand, full of kindness.
"Are you really willing?"
Chu Nanzhi glanced at the several purses in his hand, probably adding up to nearly ten taels.
Sanbao gritted his teeth, nodded heavily, touched the corner of his forehead and replied coyly, "Well, I want Auntie's lucky money."
