After rebirth, I became the widow of my mortal enemy

Chapter 67: Sister-in-law is Really Studious

"It's okay. I'll go with you. As Yan Kunpeng's relatives, it's normal for us to go and see him off. And if I go with you, the second brother will definitely not suspect anything."

"He will go to his post by water. We will send him off at the dock. After he arrives, I will find a way to get rid of his entourage, and then you two can quickly finish the battle in the carriage." Jin said.

Ning Miao: “…”

-

In order to facilitate the work, Jin specially picked a more spacious carriage, which was padded and had thick window and door curtains.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law rode in a carriage together and headed to the pier outside Beijing.

Along the way, Jin kept reminding me to do this and that.

Ning Miao just listened and responded.

Jin was very satisfied with Ning Miao's performance.

As expected, I was not mistaken, it is an easy one to control.

If I can get pregnant this time, it will be perfect.

Originally, the reason why Yan Kunpeng was chosen as the candidate for borrowing a child was not only because he was a member of the Yan family, but also because he was reliable and safe, and he was also good-looking and capable.

Now that Yan Kunpeng is the top student in high school, she is even more satisfied with this candidate.

If you get the first place, you will be a superior person and have a successful career in the future.

Once you get his son, you have the upper hand over him.

For the sake of his own career, he would not only not leak the matter to anyone, but she could also use it to easily control him.

After arriving at the dock, they waited for a while before Yan Kunpeng's carriage arrived.

Accompanying him to Jiangnan were two servants sent by the Yan Mansion.

Seeing Ning Miao and Jin, Yan Kunpeng was a little surprised and quickly got out of the car and saluted: "Madam, Madam Ning."

Jin winked at him and said, "Pan'er said he had a few questions in the book he was reading yesterday and wanted to ask Mr. Zhuangyuan for help."

Finally, he warmly greeted the servants and the coachmen of both parties.

"It's still early, the boat hasn't arrived yet. Let's go, I'll invite you all to have some tea at the teahouse over there. I heard that their orchid cakes are really good, let's go and try them."

As Jin spoke, she nudged Ning Miao with her arm.

Ning Miao had no choice but to follow her instructions on the way and said, "The book I'm reading is in the carriage. Can I trouble you to go with me to the carriage to get it and help me solve my doubts?"

Ning Miao pointed at the carriage parked not far away, under two weeping willow trees on the shore.

It was spring, the peach blossoms were pink and the willows were green, and the weeping willows were dense, just enough to provide a cover for the carriage.

Yan Kunpeng naturally understood what she meant and nodded, "You are too polite, Madam. It is my honor to be able to help you solve your doubts."

The two men pretended to go to the carriage, while Jin also led everyone to the tea stall.

A male voice with a hint of sarcasm suddenly sounded: "Sister-in-law is really studious. She came all the way to ask the number one scholar for help. This must make many scholars ashamed."

Everyone was shocked and looked in the direction of the sound.

Then they saw a carriage parked in the direction they were coming from, with their backs to each other, and a man in scarlet court robes got off the carriage.

Yan Mobai!

The smile on Jin's face froze instantly.

Yan Kunpeng suddenly felt nervous.

Ning Miao also clenched his palms slightly.

That day, she promised him that she would no longer have any contact with Yan Kunpeng.

Fortunately, the Jin family is here, and fortunately, so many people are here.

Yan Mobai walked towards everyone with his long legs, the corners of his mouth slightly raised as if he was smiling, but there was no warmth in his ink-black eyes.

"The emperor is asking the top three candidates to give their suggestions. Otherwise, the top candidate will submit a memorial to the emperor, advising that the imperial examinations be opened for women. My sister-in-law is so diligent and studious, it would be unacceptable if she doesn't become the top female candidate."

Yan Kunpeng: "......"

Ning Miao: “…”

No one present dared to respond.

In the end, it was Jin who reacted first. She put on a smile that was uglier than crying and greeted him: "Why is Mo Bai here?"

Yan Mobai walked to the front of the crowd and stood there without looking at her.

"The number one scholar has set off to take up his post in Jiangnan. I am here to see him off on the order of the Emperor."

Everyone bowed to him.

Yan Kunpeng bowed respectfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace, and thank you, Master Yan."

Yan Mobai looked at everyone and raised his sleeves: "Didn't the Madam want to invite you to have tea? It's rare for her to be so generous, go ahead."

Jin: “…”

Finally, Yan Mobai looked at Ning Miao again: "Sister-in-law, don't you have any questions to ask the champion? Just ask, I'll just listen, maybe I can benefit a lot from it."

Ning Miao: “…”

Yan Kunpeng was already sweating profusely.

Jin was very angry but she couldn't show it. She looked at everyone and saw that they didn't dare to move, so she didn't dare to mention the matter of having tea anymore.

Seeing that Ning Miao didn't respond, Yan Mobai raised his eyebrows at her.

Ning Miao pursed his lips and replied, "Actually, I came here with my mother today mainly to see her off. This puzzle doesn't have to be solved."

Seeing her say this, Jin quickly agreed.

"Yes, it's a rare occasion that another top scholar emerges from our Yan clan. This is a great honor for our family, and we should come and see him off."

Yan Mobai nodded, his face calm and his emotions unclear.

Yan Kunpeng's palms were sweaty. He turned around and saw that the boat had arrived at the dock. He said hurriedly, "Thank you all for seeing me off. The boat has arrived. I will get on board first."

Then he signaled two servants to move the luggage.

Yan Mobai's eyes were deep, but he did not stop it. Instead, he took two steps back to make it easier for the servants to carry the things.

And kindly reminded: "Top Scholar, please look carefully. Are you sure it is this boat? Don't get on the wrong boat."

Perhaps because he felt guilty, Yan Kunpeng felt that he had some hidden meaning when he heard these words.

"Thank you for the reminder, Lord Yan."

The servants carried the luggage onto the boat. Yan Kunpeng bowed to everyone again and then got on board.

In fact, it is still quite a long time before leaving the ship.

Seeing that no one was moving, Yan Mobai asked, "Are you planning to wait until the boat leaves?"

Upon hearing this, the driver who was sending Yan Kunpeng to the Yan Mansion hurriedly bowed and said goodbye: "I have something else to do back home, so I'll leave first."

Jin was also about to say she was leaving, but Yan Mobai spoke before her.

"His Royal Highness Prince Ning learned that the person who tampered with the "Spring Flowers Painting" at the Spring Banquet was not the number one scholar, but my sister-in-law. He specially ordered me to bring my sister-in-law to the palace. His Royal Highness wants to learn more about the situation from my sister-in-law so as to find out the spies in the palace."

After saying that, without waiting for Ning Miao to respond, he said to Jin: "So, Madam, you see, do you want to give your carriage to your sister-in-law and walk back home, or..."

Jin was speechless.

Walk home?

It was such a long way from the mansion to the outskirts of the city, and this evil son actually asked her, an elder, to give up the carriage to a junior and walk back by herself?

Of course she had to take the carriage.

But there was only one horse-drawn carriage, and no car rental was available near the pier.

And going back to the Marquis' Mansion is not at all convenient for going to Prince Ning's Mansion.

Jin thought for a while, then said to Yan Mobai: "You see, your carriage is quite spacious. How about we let you take care of your sister-in-law for a bit? Although it's not good for an uncle and a sister-in-law to ride in the same carriage, fortunately there are no outsiders here. If you get in the carriage, outsiders won't be able to see you."
