Although Song Sijing wanted to report it, he couldn't find a chance to escape while on duty.

Moreover, if the princess wanted to sneak out of the palace, he would have to take care of it, otherwise he would not be able to bear the blame from the Queen Mother.

All in all, Song Sijing just thought about it briefly and soon had no time to care about Shang Wenqi's life or death.

……

Zhou Mingyu's private lesson has ended, and Ning Ning now knows the court like the back of her hand.

If she were asked to be a storyteller now, specializing in telling various stories about Daliang, she would be fully capable of doing the job. Of course, this is just a thought. She would not be so stupid as to gossip about others under the feet of the emperor.

Not long after, Shang Wenqi came back from outside.

Ning Ning was already accustomed to his silent coming and going like the wind, and was completely adapted to seeing him coming back from outside.

Shang Wenqi first glanced at Zhou Mingyu who was sitting next to him. When he saw Zhou Mingyu nod, he knew that he had said everything he needed to say.

"I have completed the task assigned by Aqi. Now that Aqi is back, I will go back to my room to practice."

Zhou Mingyu said this without waiting for the two to try to stop him, and walked away with brisk steps.

Ning Ning didn't speak until Zhou Mingyu was far away. "You asked me to be patient last night. Was it because of the Concubine? Do you think this matter is related to the Concubine?"

Shang Wenqi glanced at her calmly and said, "I just want to tell you that the Minister of Justice is the uncle of the Concubine Dowager, and his mansion is not easy to break into."

The implication is that if one goes ahead without Zhou Xiang's plan, one will only alert the enemy.

Ning Ning understood: "Yes, if we force our way in, he will definitely not wake up. Is there any way to sneak in quietly?"

Ning Ning began to brainstorm. According to the plot of the TV series, disguising herself as a maid, a servant, or a book boy would be the easiest.

But in fact, such a method can only deceive the audience. There are no more than dozens of servants working in such a mansion. Even if these people have different jobs, they eat, drink, defecate and urinate together in the end. Moreover, most of the servants in the mansion have been bought since they were young, so how could they not recognize each other, let alone unfamiliar faces.

Unless, you can meet someone who is buying a new person to bring into the house.

However, even when buying new people, they would only pick children. Adults like her, to put it bluntly, would be hard to raise and their identities would be problematic.

After all, good maids are usually raised until they die in the mansion. Those who are still in the hands of human traffickers at this age are either driven out because of mistakes, or are used to warm the bed or as concubines.

After all, it is not the one that a noble mansion would choose.

The path of becoming a maid or servant is completely closed, and I can only think about becoming a new person.

Is she going to use her identity as a tutor in Xiao Zhizhou's home again?

Ning Ning dismissed the idea as soon as it occurred to her. It would be fine if she used Xiao Zhizhou to go to the capital, but if she used this identity to go to the residence of the Minister of Justice, Xiao Zhizhou would be escorted to the capital in the next second.

Ning Ning was a person who would repay a favor. Along the way, Xiao Zhizhou's name had given her a lot of conveniences. Even though she had no way to repay him, she would never do anything to take advantage of him.

Just as Ning Ning was brainstorming crazily, Shang Wenqi spoke up: "Instead of thinking about it here, why don't you come with me to Tingsong Pavilion."

"Where is Tingsong Pavilion?" Ning Ning instantly became alert.

Shang Wenqi gave her a strange look and said, "You didn't even ask Zhou Mingyu?"

Ning Ning was puzzled: "Zhou Mingyu only told me some things about the court."

Could it be that this Tingsong Pavilion was also a confidential department of the imperial court? It seemed that it was not listed in the organizational chart.

However, Shang Wenqi ignored Ning Ning and walked out first.

Ning Ning had no choice but to hurry and catch up.

Soon the two of them took a carriage and arrived at the Yuesha River again.

At this time, Ning Ning finally understood that the Yuesha River was equivalent to the Qinhuai River. It was the most prosperous place in the capital. The famous Daliang East Market was also here.

There are also two very famous places here - Tingsong Pavilion and Hibiscus Garden, where you can listen to the pine wind in the daytime and pick hibiscus under the moon, are two famous beauties in Kyoto.

Yesterday, Shang Wenqi took Ning Ning to visit Furong Garden, but I didn't expect that he would take me to Tingsong Pavilion today.

Ning Ning felt embarrassed. This guy came to a public place without informing her in advance. She might run into the person she met last night at any time. What if they recognized her as the wanted criminal in the portrait at the city gate?

Ning Ning bought a face covering from the mall to make up for her loss, and hurriedly covered her face, of course, taking it out from her treasure sleeve.

Shang Wenqi was also used to Ning Ning's treasure bag and treasure sleeves and didn't say much.

After Ning Ning had tidied her appearance, Shang Wenqi went upstairs.

Tingsong Pavilion has a total of seven floors, but only the first and second floors are open to the public. Only VIPs can visit the third floor and above.

Shang Wenqi took Ning Ning to sit down in a corner on the first floor, and Ning Ning began to look at the surrounding scenery.

Here, by the window, the river breeze outside blows gently, which is very comfortable.

In addition, there are all kinds of vendors, travelers, and literati chatting inside, telling stories from all over the world.

Ning Ning immediately understood Shang Wenqi's intention. It turned out that he wanted her to find out if there was any useful information.

However, unfortunately, apart from the delicious food, Ning Ning really didn’t get any useful information.

The only news that sounded familiar was that the Western Region Dance Troupe, which had recently arrived at Furong Garden, was very powerful. They performed a dance to warm up the audience last night and received a bounty of nearly 100 taels.

At this time, the performance has been moved from the first to the fifth.

If Ning Ning had not been to Furong Garden, she would not have much idea about these events. But she was there last night, and the hundred taels of gold were also contributed by her and Shang Wenqi. So her feelings when she heard these gossips now were different.

The first three games were all warm-up games. To put it bluntly, there were not many noble people coming, and the quality of warm-up games has always been average, so noble people don’t care much.

But from the third show onwards, the seats were filled with VIPs and the wine was already flowing, so the mood was different. The next ten shows were all very important, the golden spots that the dance troupes dreamed of.

The rise of the Western Region Dance Company spread quickly throughout Kyoto, and everyone was talking about this stage.

Ning Ning couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. It seemed that the Western Region Dance Troupe was doing quite well. This was also good. As an invisible shareholder, she could also win without doing anything when they made money, right?

However, apart from this more exciting news, the rest are all unremarkable, such as the appearance of a priceless and precious young lady in Qinzhou that everyone is scrambling to snatch her away, or the continuous heavy rains in Bazhou that have soaked so much crops and so on.

Admittedly, these were interesting topics, but they were of no help to her current predicament, so Ning Ning was not very interested.

Compared to Ning Ning, Shang Wenqi was calm. He sat there until Tingsong Pavilion closed, and then he took Ning Ning back home.

The next day, we continued to stroll around Tingsong Pavilion.
