Tong Xibin got on the carriage, and the accompanying maid hurriedly came up to him. She smiled and tried to climb on his shoulders, but he threw her away.
"Don't bother me now."
He frowned, his face gloomy.
He is not a fool, how could he not feel Tong Zhenzhen's dislike for him? It's just that the eldest princess has fallen, and he must find someone to rely on. The most powerful person in the Prince Consort's house now is only Tong Zhenzhen.
Moreover, Tong Zhenzhen and his surname are both members of his Tong family, and they can be recorded in the genealogy. Although she doesn't have much respect, it is a kind of reliance if she can think of him in everything she does.
However, to ask Ji Shaoling to leave, you must have a suitable excuse!
In the inn, Ji Shaoling was packing his things. In the morning, he and Xi Wenya had already finalized the matter of gold. Xi Wenya would pay with a banknote and send it to a bank near the border along the way. After exchanging it, he could use it directly, thus eliminating the danger on the road.
Correspondingly, he also informed Cao Zhengning on the spot about running a school for the Xi family. Even if he returned to Beijing, he would tell the county magistrate and prefect in his heart during the handover, and that the deal between the two parties had been reached, and there were other matters. , you can also communicate with each other in letters.
When he thinks about this matter, he still feels like a dream. He has been worried about it for a long time, but he doesn't want to solve it all with one opportunity and pave the way for the future.
"Tuan Tuan, it's really magical!" Ji Shaoling couldn't help but look at Secret Guard No. 3.
When Xi Wenya came today, she conveyed to him that Tuantuan did not want anyone to follow her. Thinking of Tuantuan's magical ability, he directly agreed.
After hearing this, Secret Guard No. 3 also nodded.
"There seem to be a lot of guests coming to the Jiang family, but I look like an ordinary person." He felt something was wrong. He always felt that those people were too ordinary and did not match the burly figure.
But every time he tried to take a closer look at their faces, all he could think of was ordinary. Ordinary would not attract people's attention, so he really didn't care.
Ji Shaoling heard this and smiled.
"With her ability, it's normal for her to have many customers. But I'm still worried about leaving like this. I want to persuade her to come with us."
After hearing this, Secret Guard No. 3 thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes moved slightly.
"The fraud case has been concluded. I wonder when the state governments will be notified about re-evaluation?"
Ji Shaoling's heart moved, and he instantly understood that Tuantuan's father had already passed the provincial examination. He was originally going to take the joint examination in Beijing this time, but he collapsed before he could go. Now that he is taking the exam again, he must still go to Beijing. In Beijing, how can it be convenient to study in Beijing all the time and wait for the re-examination?
"Yes, I understand. I will go to her house tomorrow to explain it clearly."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a knock on the door and the attendant's voice sounded outside.
"Your Highness, the consort is back again."
Ji Shaoling's face instantly turned ugly. Thinking of the scene he and Tuantuan had seen before, he wished he could just kick Tong Xibin down!
However, when Tong Xibin and Xu Jing came over earlier and said that Tong Zhenzhen wanted to see them, he still insisted on the prince's dignity and showed no emotion.
"Is he the only one?" He clenched his fists unconsciously.
"Yes, he is the only one."
"Then let him come in."
Ji Shaoling sneered. As soon as Tong Xibin came in, she saw his sinister smile and felt nervous.
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince. I have gone and returned. After much thought, I have something that I would like to tell His Highness."
