When Yang Ning returned to the palace outside the palace, the sky was already dark. She stayed with Concubine Li for a long time this time. Yang Ning couldn't help but be secretly vigilant. She would not be able to do this again in the future.

In Fengyi Palace, Yang Ning finally proposed to ask Concubine Li to help and launch a fundraiser to relieve the victims in the name of Empress Chen. This was an idea he came up with after being inspired by Princess Yongning. After thinking about it, the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it. Very feasible.

Empress Chen and Concubine Li took the lead in initiating this fund-raising and relief effort for the victims. It will definitely have a strong appeal. Empress Chen has no children and heirs, and lives in a corner. Secondly, Concubine Li is the biological mother of the prince. , the future Queen Mother, princes, nobles, and wealthy families. Who wouldn’t buy it? It’s probably because she finally got such an opportunity. It’s too late to flatter her.

Furthermore, this matter was initiated by the harem. It was the most just and logical thing to do to solve the emperor's problems and extend kindness to the royal family. This easily overshadowed the fact that the treasury is empty now. It saved the face of the royal family and even added to the brilliance of the royal family. He won the hearts and minds of the people. If Emperor Longqing hadn't lost his mind due to eating **, he would have no reason not to agree.

Concubine Li has always been very willing to help Yang Ning. What's more, what Yang Ning is asking for this time is this kind of great good deed to accumulate virtue for future generations. Originally, Concubine Li has always been eating fast, chanting sutras and worshiping Bodhisattva, and she has a wholehearted and kind-hearted character. . And for this kind of opportunity to do good deeds, how could she have any reason to refuse. On the contrary, it was too late for her to be happy. Frankly speaking, it was Yang Ning who gave her such a rare opportunity to do such a thing. It was better than her Eating fast and chanting Buddha's name every day will be a hundred times stronger.

Concubine Li has lived in the palace for a long time. She has no idea about things outside the palace. When Yang Ning told her about the difficult and tragic situation of homeless victims in the capital, she shed tears several times. This made Yang Ning feel more for her. Somewhat favorable impressions made him very happy. It is said that in feudal society, the royal family and the harem staff all have aloof, cold and ruthless virtues. However, Princess Yongning and Concubine Li, who are close to Yang Ning, both have the same character. Compassionate and compassionate heart.

When Yang Ning admired Concubine Li in her heart, she didn't know that Concubine Li's affection for him had doubled rapidly. Yang Ning's noble feelings of caring for the people and caring about the world fell in Li Guifei's eyes, and she couldn't help but be deeply impressed. I was deeply moved and loved. I was even more secretly pleased that I had not misjudged the person. I felt closer to Yang Ning in my heart. Yang Ning did not expect the side effects of this. He just wanted to do something for the victims sincerely. It's just something that can actually provide food and clothing and tide over the difficulties.

After sending away the eunuch who escorted him out, Yang Ning did not enter his house. Instead, he went to the Wen residence opposite. According to his plan with Concubine Li, starting from tomorrow, he might be busy raising funds to relieve the victims. I'm afraid I won't have enough time to find Wen Ziyan.

The door of Wen's family was just ajar. Yang Ning walked in and found that the two brothers and sisters of Wen's family were having dinner. There were a few simple side dishes on the table, plus steamed buns and rice porridge. There was no trace of meat or fish in it. Yang Ning couldn't help but feel secretly in his heart. He was angry that Wen Qianshi, his future brother-in-law, had no purpose for letting his future wife live such a mediocre life.

"Brother Wen. Zi Yan. Eat." Yang Ning greeted enthusiastically.

Turning around to see Yang Ning, Wen Ziyan's pretty face immediately fell. She snorted coldly and turned her head away, just pretending that she hadn't seen him. However, Wen Qianshi stood up in a hurry and said happily: "Ah. Brother Yang, you are here. Sit down quickly. Sit down quickly. Don’t be angry anymore.”

Hearing what Wen Qianshi said, Wen Ziyan looked a little surprised. She glanced at Yang Ning and Wen Qianshi, but still said nothing.

Emotional Wen Qianshi was still thinking about the last time Yang Ning threw away her sleeves. But Yang Ning had already forgotten it. He was stunned when he heard this, and then suddenly said: "Ah...oh. What did Brother Wen say? How can neighbors, especially men, never forget these trivial matters?"

Yang Ning said, but his eyes were looking straight at Wen Ziyan, who had his head lowered. Wen Qianshi thought he was interested in the food on the table. He hurriedly said: "Brother Yang, sit down quickly. Oh, by the way, Brother Yang. You haven't eaten it yet. How about... we use some together."

"elder brother."

Before Yang Ning could say anything, Wen Ziyan frowned and said, "My father-in-law Yang spends his days drinking and drinking, enjoying fine clothes and fine food. How can he care about our simple meals? I think you should see the guests off."

Wen Ziyan's words made it clear that Yang Ning was not welcome. But Yang Ning was so shameless. She pretended to have only heard Wen Qianshi's words. She immediately sat down at the dinner table with a shy face and said with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Wen, for your kindness." That's right. I haven't eaten yet."

Wen Ziyan glared at Yang Ning angrily. Yang Ning turned a blind eye. Wen Qianshi took it seriously and hurriedly brought another pair of bowls and chopsticks to Yang Ning. She said kindly: "It is indeed a simple meal. Brother Yang, please don't dislike it. .”

Yang Ning immediately responded: "No, no, no. How can it be? Haha. I'm not afraid of Brother Wen's jokes. I come from a poor family. It's not like I've never eaten turf and tree roots. This is already very good."

After that, Yang Ning really picked up the chopsticks and started eating. She looked very sweet as she ate. Wen Ziyan's face flashed with anger. She tried not to get angry, but she threw away the chopsticks and said angrily: "I'm full." Alright. Go back to your room first." After that, he stood up and left.

No matter how slow his reaction was, Wen Qianshi could see something was wrong between his sister and Yang Ning at this moment. He couldn't help but wonder: "Brother Yang, what's going on with my sister-in-law and you? Didn't you two get along well last time? Look at her This attitude...but for what purpose?"

Yang Ning finished the steamed bun in three mouthfuls and swallowed it forcefully. He smiled and said: "No, it's okay. I just had a small disagreement with Zi Yan in the palace. I'll go check on her. Brother Wen, please eat slowly."

Wen Qianshi had no doubt that she had it. He said hurriedly: "My sister-in-law has a bad temper. Brother Yang must not get along with her. From now on, Brother Yang must take more care of her in the palace."

Hey. What this kid said was quite right. Yang Ning followed the direction in which Wen Ziyan left and nodded: "Brother Wen, don't worry. Brother Wen's sister is naturally mine, Yang Ning's... uh... …elder sister."

I chased her to the backyard of Wen's house. I saw that Wen Ziyan had not entered the house. Instead, she was standing beside the wasteland where flowers and grass had been planted, staring at the frozen pond in a daze.

"Zi Yan..." Yang Ning called softly, feeling a little uneasy.

Wen Ziyan's delicate body trembled. She said without turning her head: "Eunuch Yang is here. What advice can you give me?"

Yang Ning smiled dryly and said: "Zi Yan, I'm here to thank you for your treatment. The medicine you applied is really effective. The swelling disappeared in half a day... Also, I actually listened to you in Fengyi Palace. Exhort me. I originally planned to come to you yesterday, but unfortunately there were too many things to do and I couldn't get away. As a result, I broke the appointment. Therefore, I came here to apologize to you."

Wen Ziyan didn't even look at Yang Ning. She said in a cold voice: "My father-in-law is too polite. What kind of identity is Zi Yan? What kind of identity is my father-in-law? There is no need to apologize to Zi Yan."

As expected, Wen Ziyan was still angry about her failure to make an appointment yesterday. Yang Ning suddenly thought about it and had an idea. She pretended to apologize and said: "Zi Yan, it's all my fault. Originally, I wanted to come over yesterday. Who would have thought? When we encounter something important that affects the life and death of the people, it is..."

Originally, he forgot to come to Wen's house because he drank too much. But Yang Ning forcefully said that he delayed coming because he couldn't bear to see the victims starving and freezing, so he wanted to prepare donations to relieve the victims. Wen Ziyan originally He is a doctor whose mission is to treat illnesses and save people. She would not blame herself for such a reason.

Sure enough, Wen Ziyan's expression softened a lot after hearing Yang Ning's explanation. She lowered her eyes and thought for a while before saying, "Since it is for such a good deed, it is understandable that I don't have time to come here..."

Hearing what Wen Ziyan meant, it seemed that she had forgiven herself. Yang Ning couldn't help but feel happy. Just as he was about to speak, Wen Ziyan continued to say calmly: "Okay. Eunuch Yang has already explained it. The injury seems to be okay. It's no longer serious. If nothing happens, please go back."

Yang Ning couldn't help but was stunned. She thought to herself: You have already forgiven yourself for breaking the appointment. Why are you still so cold to yourself?

"Hey, Zi Yan, don't rush me away. You and I are considered friends. Now we live next to each other. This time I went north to the grassland. I accidentally bought a very beautiful bracelet. I bought it specially to give it as a gift. Here you go. It's been a few days since I returned to Beijing. I finally got this opportunity. See if you like it." As he said, Yang Ning took out the purple jade bracelet that had been in his arms. Under the light night, the purple jade bracelet Exudes a soft and dazzling purple light.

Wen Ziyan glanced at the bracelet indifferently. She was silent for a while. Then she said coldly: "Thank you very much, Eunuch Yang, for your kindness. It's just that Zi Yan didn't receive any reward for her merits. How can she accept such an expensive gift from her father-in-law? I'd better take it back."

Wen Ziyan's attitude towards her was still cold. Yang Ning couldn't help but feel a little depressed and puzzled. She tried to persuade: "Uh... Miss Ziyan, this bracelet was indeed chosen by me specially for you. Only you are the most suitable one." This purple jade bracelet. Besides, this jade bracelet is not worth a few taels of silver. You..."

Before Yang Ning could finish speaking, Wen Ziyan interrupted him and said: "Eunuch Yang, I think I have made it very clear. Zi Yan does not dare to be a gift from the father-in-law. She is not suitable to accept a gift from the father-in-law. Please say goodbye to the father-in-law. Forgot your 'identity'."

"you……."

Wen Ziyan's sentence pointed directly at Yang Ning's "eunuch" status. Although Yang Ning knew that she didn't know her secret, her face still couldn't help but change. But for a moment, she didn't know what to say.

Yes. In Wen Ziyan's view, no matter how high her status is or how powerful she is, she is just a "eunuch" or a "eunuch". How can she be qualified to express these ambiguous feelings with Wen Ziyan here? To be honest . Up to now, Wen Ziyan has not yelled at herself. She has given herself a lot of face.

After making his identity as a "fake eunuch" clear, he might still have some hope of pursuing Wen Ziyan. But if he didn't make it clear, he wouldn't even have half a hope.
