Chapter 15 The Prince is a Woman 15
"Ah Zhen, fifth sister has been gone for a month, has there been any letters back?" Ning Yumei suddenly asked, and put the ginseng tea that was about to reach her mouth back on the stone table, a hint of worry creeping up her brows.

The bamboo forest is deep, and the branches and leaves are swaying gently. It should be a time for leisure and enjoyment, but Ning Yumei's heart is disturbed and a little uneasy.

Since Ning Yumei was much better, she had no problem walking around alone, so Ah Qi took the rare time to sit with her. She was very concerned about the clients' sisters, and she had to see them grow well and keep them fair and tender before she could do other things with peace of mind.

"It should take a month to go from the capital to Qingzhou." The more Ning Yumei thought about it, the more nervous she became. Her slender fingers pinched the teacup and her whole body tensed up. Could something go wrong? The journey was long and nothing could be predicted. It was not as peaceful outside as the capital. Who knows, there might be bandits or something.

"Don't worry, Second Sister. Fifth Sister is fine." Ah Qi said, "I didn't have time to send the letter. It's true that I encountered some problems, but my people have always reported that I am safe."

Since it concerns the safety of Ning Yuxue and his wife, she cannot be careless.

Her people report every three days.

Ning Yuxue hadn't received any letter from him. Something had indeed happened, but she was fine. Something serious had happened in Qingzhou. She guessed that the other party's letter should also be coming back soon, but it just didn't arrive in time before.

Ning Yumei believed in A'rui, and after hearing what she said, her nervous heart instantly calmed down.

She thought about herself again. She thought that she should be able to go out and see the world next year. In fact, Prince Ning's Mansion was quite good, many times better than before she got married. She could stay here for the rest of her life without leaving.

But she yearns for the outside world. Maybe because she has a stable life, she wants more.

As her seventh sister's letters came back one after another, she became more curious about the outside world. She didn't even want to sit in the carriage to see the scenery, but wanted to ride a horse to see the flowers.

"I heard that my second sister went to see the horses in the mansion earlier?" Ah Qi suddenly said, "When you are better and can bear the activity of riding a horse, I will find a master to teach you how to ride a horse. In the future, when you go out to play, you can ride a horse if you get bored sitting in a carriage."

Ning Yumei's eyes showed anticipation, but soon she felt a little embarrassed and touched her hot face. Was she so obvious? Ah Zhen, who was busy all day, could see it.

But she did not refuse, and emphasized: "Although I yearn to go out, it's not just for fun, but also to help Ah Zhen do something."

"That would be great. I've been hoping that Second Sister could help." Ah Qi said, "If Second Sister doesn't feel any other discomfort, she can help keep an eye on some shops in the capital. It's really a headache for me to handle everything by myself. I can't handle it at all."

Ning Yumei knew that Ah Zhen was busy. Except for being in the mansion at night, she was often outside. No matter how busy Ah Zhen was, she would come to ask about her situation every day.

I'm really worried.

"Okay." she said.

That afternoon, Asui received a letter from Ning Yuxue.

The letter mentioned that the two were attacked on the way. The couple lamented that they were lucky to have the twenty guards sent by Aqi, otherwise they would have died there in the face of a large wave of bandits. I won't talk much about the words praising the twenty guards in the letter. Ning Yuxue said that the bandits they encountered this time were related to the situation in Qingzhou, and the former governor of Qingzhou was also involved.

This is bound to cause a big stir.

By the time her letter comes back, the matter will probably be settled.

After confirming that Ning Yuxue and her husband were safe, Ah Qi did not pay much attention to it. As for what happened in Qingzhou, it would naturally be handled by the new prefect Jian Jikang and the person in the palace, so she did not arrange anyone to investigate further.

After informing Ning Yumei of Ning Yuxue's news, Ah Qi became busy again. Within two days, the former prefect of Qingzhou concealed the iron and gold mines in Qingzhou and assassinated the court officials. The whole court was shocked. In addition, there were other big and small things in Qingzhou. Needless to say, it must be a bunch of melons on a vine, and it will take a while to end.

I don’t know how many people lost their heads.

None of this had much to do with A'qi. She was sitting in the carriage, on her way to her fourth sister Ning Yutong's place, and would be there soon.

"Young Master, we have arrived at Earl Weian's Mansion." Ying Fang's voice rang out.

Asui walked out of the carriage and looked up at the plaque of Earl Weian's Mansion. The ends of his eyebrows curled up slightly, as if he was smiling, looking a little well-behaved, just like a young man who was curious about new things and had never experienced any hardship.

Very harmless, yet very confusing.

Ying Fang accidentally caught a glimpse of this smile and thought that the fourth uncle was probably finished.

The people in Earl Weian's Mansion were surprised to see that it was a carriage from Prince Ning's Mansion. A'qi was also a familiar face in the capital. The doorman shuddered and quickly recalled whether his son had done anything bad to his mistress.

Fortunately, fortunately, no.

Prince Ning was not ruthless to all his brothers-in-law. As long as they didn't let their sisters down and did nothing out of line, they would be fine. Aren't the two of them good enough? Especially the editor of the Hanlin Academy. Even if he insisted on having a son, Prince Ning didn't say anything bad. He even helped him find a job to save money for the child.

Although the young master and his wife were not as loving as each other, they at least respected each other.

Well, that should be fine.

Prince Ning came here today, most likely to visit his sister.

The doorman had such thoughts in mind, and when he learned that A'rui was really here to visit Ning Yutong, he invited her in warmly and flatteringly.

Ah Qi did not hide her whereabouts when she came here. As soon as she entered, someone spread the news that she went to the Earl of Weian's Mansion. A certain elegant teahouse set up a gambling game again. Since the two sons-in-law of the Ning Palace got along well with the Ning Prince before, they would bet on when the son of the Earl of Weian's Mansion would be finished.

They bet that this fourth uncle of Prince Ning's Mansion would be finished or alive and well.

This makes it difficult to guess, after all, who knows whether he has done anything dirty in private.

"Definitely not. I'm very familiar with Zhou Yuanjia. We've even had drinks together a few times. This guy doesn't even drink wine, let alone have any weird habits. He usually trains in the barracks, eating, drinking, defecating and urinating with so many people watching, how could he have any weird habits? In addition, I heard that he has never married a maid in his room. So, I bet Zhou Yuanjia will be fine."

"Then I also bet that Zhou Yuanjia is fine!"

"I know Zhou Yuanjia, so there's no problem betting on him."

"Wealth and honor are sought in danger. Everyone thinks Zhou Yuanjia is fine, so I'll bet that he is. If I lose, it's not much, but if I win, I'll make a profit, hehe."

"Brother, you are not the only one who thinks this way, I think the same way, haha."
