Chapter 226: Everything that my good-for-nothing father didn't give you, I will give you

Ningguang master slowly put down the book, looked toward the girl opposite, and said, "What are your plans afterwards?"

What they have experienced today is a bit early for the children; the youngest is just seven years old, and the oldest is only just thirteen.

Pulling up seedlings to help them grow is not a good thing for the children.

Only seeing her put down the book, her brows slightly furrowed, showing a bit of worry, she said, "I will go to Jiangnan in the second half of the year."

"Jiangnan?" Ningguang master questioned, "What are you going to do there?"

Jiang Yunchu smiled and said, "Lustrous Jade Soap has already made a name in Jingdu, but supply cannot meet demand; the great clans cannot supply it. Ningguang master, do you know why?"

Ningguang master shook her head; she is devoted to books and martial arts, business is not within her scope, and even among the four great scholars, none is cut out for business.

"In all of Jingdu, I have no one I can use."

When she said this, Jiang Yunchu also wore a look of helplessness.

"Can't you find anyone at the merchant guild?" Ningguang asked.

Jiang Yunchu lightly shook her head, and simply placed the book in her hand onto the side platform.

"I have always felt that there is a pair of eyes secretly supervising the Wang Fu and supervising me."

"I cannot find out who it is, nor can I predict who it is."

"When I employ people, those spies penetrate everywhere, leaving me unable to defend against them."

She sighed; in fact, she had bought people, she had recruited people, but the final investigation results were all disappointing.

Simply, she killed the idea outright; the confidential workshop simply does not allow anyone to enter.

Here she cannot expand production; there she cannot insert people; moreover, the formula is unthinkable to obtain.

To injure the enemy by one thousand, one suffers eight hundred oneself.

"If I want to break the situation, there is only one way: leave Ning Jing, leave that person's sphere of control." She lightly raised her head, looked toward Ningguang master, the corners of her mouth slightly hooking a smile; this smile bore a touch of clarity and a hint of allure.

Any man facing her could not withstand her languid demeanor, the slightly open lapel, and the few strands of slightly disheveled black hair.

"How will you arrange the Wang Fu? How will you arrange the children?" Ningguang master sighed; she came down the mountain solely to help Yun Chu, but deep inside she harbors an ultimate goal, which is all the more difficult.

Before Yun Chu is ready to know, when the time comes for her to know, will she be as carefree as she is now?

"There is Zi Su in the Wang Fu; the children have you and my maternal grandfather; outside there is Qing Feng Da Ru."

"I will make advance arrangements for the Imperial Palace; I am leaving secretly, first going over to check the situation, but the journey is far, so I will make preparations here beforehand."

This time she leaves, not wanting to be a deserter, but to change places to rest and recuperate, and also to find the person behind the scenes.

That person hid themselves too well; even His Majesty and Ning Chengyan could not find them, and although there are some speculative ranges, there is no final result.

As for her, wanting to live, wanting to break free from control, there is only this path.

"Good." Ningguang master said nothing more.

Only the revealed eyes carried deep worry.

Along the way, the children have already fallen asleep; from midnight until now, they have been fighting, they have been wits and courage, now they are overly tired, their breathing sounds rise and fall in this enclosed space.

And behind the children, there are cart after cart of imperial physicians; the physicians themselves are not tired, but the journey is far, the physicians are elderly, and at this moment they all close their eyes to rest.

At the gate of the Regent Prince's Manor, Jiang Yunchu lightly smiled at the imperial physicians and said, "Today you have gone through much trouble; the Regent Prince's Manor will send thanks to each manor tomorrow; the night is deep and the dew heavy, so I will not keep you any longer."

"Bai Zhi, let our people send the imperial physicians back to the manor." She lightly turned her head and looked toward Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi immediately bowed in assent, then arranged the Wang Fu army to send all the imperial physicians away.

"Zi Su, tomorrow each imperial physician will be given a set of Lustrous Jade Soap, and the medicine boy will be given a piece of Lustrous Jade Soap." Jiang Yunchu walked inward while giving these instructions.

"Yes." Zi Su quickly noted it down.

For the convenience of the manor, the manor's storehouse does keep a separate stock of Lustrous Jade Soap, but after calculating the quantity it is still insufficient; we need to reconcile the numbers with Su Xin's side.

"Mother." Ning Hanmo felt each step as if his legs weighed a thousand jin, yet he had already followed closely step by step.

Jiang Yunchu turned around, looked toward Ning Hanmo, and said, "Mother, do you have something to discuss?"

Since the opening of Chun Hua Xue Yuan, Ning Hanmo has always resided there; coming over this late must be for some matter.

"Mother, when can I go to the battlefield?" He raised his head, looking at Jiang Yunchu with a face full of respect.

Thinking back to a year ago, that unruly, rebellious boy, the mischievous bear child, has now grown into a responsible person.

"Today's trial, do you think you can become a qualified soldier?"

She did not answer his question, but instead posed another question.

Ning Hanmo shook his head; he is not, whether in strength, ability, or way of thinking, he falls far short.

"Ning Hanmo, you are still young, you still have a long growth ahead, but..."

"I estimate that the time left for you will not exceed three years."

"So..."

"Son, grow up quickly."

She smiled, looking at Ning Hanmo with full satisfaction and gratification; this is her son, the child she has taught little by little; he thinks himself inadequate, but in her heart he is so outstanding, so responsible, enough to make her proud.

"Mother."

Ning Hanmo raised his head, earnestly looking at his mother; her eyes were full of fatigue, yet she never uttered a complaint.

"Alright, go rest; tomorrow's lesson, the teacher certainly did not say there would be a holiday."

She lightly patted his shoulder, tidied his disheveled clothes, just like an ordinary mother treating her most beloved child.

"Yes!"

Ning Hanmo immediately responded, then turned and left.

Just as the person about to step out of Rhyme Courtyard did not turn around, but suddenly spoke, "Mother, that scoundrel of a father didn't give you what he should have; I will give you all of it."

"The glory of the Regent Prince's Manor, the status of the Regent's Consort, the son will present them before you."

After saying that, he turned and left; because his speed was somewhat fast, his steps appeared somewhat unsteady, yet the youth's tone was so resolute.

"This habit of spitting harsh words when leaving, when can it be changed?"

Jiang Yunchu heard it and froze for a moment; though her eyes were full of smiles, she still couldn't help but mutter a complaint.

Zi Su helped her up, watching the mother and son interact, she also couldn't help but smile, "Princess Consort, Young Master, this is him worrying about you."

"How could I not know?"

She sighed in her heart, Ning Chengyan—look at your son, look at yourself—how do you deserve such a good child?
