Chapter 884 The heroine of destiny
Ever since Su Ning and Prime Minister Shen discussed bringing Shen Hezhen to Jiangning Mansion, and now they have all moved to the new Ning Palace in Bianjing City, Su Ning has never met Shen Hezhen, and he doesn't know if she is as tall and beautiful as in the original drama. Today, Princess Huirou and Sheng Hualan worked together to arrange a woman for him, which made Su Ning think of this seventeen-year-old girl again.

Shen Hezhen, who had received advance notice, had already prepared herself and had been kneeling at the door to greet the incoming man. Seeing this, Su Ning couldn't help but feel surprised. "Hezhen, didn't anyone tell you that Prince Ning's Mansion doesn't have so many formalities?"

"Your Highness, Manager Su has naturally already informed you, but I still feel that etiquette is very important." Shen Hezhen responded with her head down, slightly shy. After all, she had been mentally prepared to serve in the emperor's bedchamber for so many years.

"Then it seems you are a stubborn woman."

"Ah? Your Highness, I..." Suddenly hearing Su Ning's meaningful words, Shen Hezhen thought that she had annoyed the man in front of her, and she couldn't help but want to explain something in panic.

"You don't have to explain anything!" Su Ning quickly stopped Shen Hezhen from explaining, then looked at him with a smirk and said, "Hezhen, let me see some of your stubbornness next."

"Ah..." Shen Hezhen couldn't help but blush and her heart started beating fast when Su Ning suddenly carried her horizontally to the bedroom and heard Su Ning's explicit words with such a hint of meaning.

The next morning, seeing the young girl still soundly asleep, Su Ning tiptoed out of the land of gentleness. A maid would then naturally help Su Ning change her clothes. At this moment, Su Ning looked at the maid at Zhen Ningxuan, the courtyard where Shen Hezhen was staying, and instructed her, "Mrs. Zhen worked very hard last night. Don't disturb her sleep."

"Yes! Your Majesty."

After instructing the maids in Zhen Ningxuan to be more careful, Su Ning left with Zhao Linger, who had not slept all night. Naturally, the first person he noticed was Zhao Linger with panda eyes. He also knew that the noise he and Shen Hezhen made last night was too loud, and Zhao Linger, as a personal maid, must have been very angry.

"Ling'er, did you not sleep last night?" Su Ning asked knowingly as he looked at Zhao Ling'er beside him.

"Ah? Your Highness, how did you expect me to sleep last night?" Zhao Linger retorted to the man in a bad mood. She felt that serving Suning every day was too torturous, and she couldn't help but doubt whether her "Daji Plan" could succeed.

"How about giving you a day off today? You can go back and spend time with your grandmother and father." At this time, Suning was considerate enough to give Zhao Linger a day off.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Go ahead! You worked hard last night."

"..." Zhao Linger, who was yawning just now, immediately fled from here with a blushing face and a beating heart.

Looking at Zhao Linger's figure quickly fleeing from here, Suning still felt very uncomfortable in his heart, because Suning could always feel a vague sense of alienation from Zhao Linger, so he realized that he might never get Zhao Linger's true love. You know, such things will happen in every dynasty, and often the efforts of one party may not necessarily be rewarded by the other party.

Zhao Linger's appearance was just a pleasant surprise at best, so Su Ning didn't take it too seriously. He then asked a figure behind him, "Su Yi, how's the investigation going?"

"Master, Prince Yong and Prince Yan have already colluded with most of the Zhao Song royal family. Among them, Zhao Zongquan and his son in Yuzhou responded most enthusiastically, and are preparing to launch a palace coup with internal and external support." The half-hidden mysterious figure immediately appeared, then looked at the master in front of him and answered.

"Inside and outside collaboration? Concubine Rong?" At this time, Su Ning couldn't help but look at Su Yi with a surprised expression and asked.

"Yes."

"That's not right! Prince Yong and his family were suppressed by me to the point that they were almost like the Ninja Turtles, but Concubine Rong's sister Rong Feiyan was not killed?" Then Su Ning couldn't help but feel confused. You know, Prince Yong's family was bullied by him to the point that they couldn't raise their heads, so how could there be such a cruel kidnapping as in the original drama?

"Master, the specific situation seems to be related to you. From indirect analysis, I found that Concubine Rong is very extreme. She may think that you have insulted the royal family of the Song Dynasty. In addition, she feels that the old emperor and Queen Cao are too indulgent to you and Princess Huirou, so she agreed to join forces with Prince Yan and others." At this time, Jinyiwei Commander Su Yi could only speak based on the information analysis.

"No! Su Yi, I always feel that the direction of your investigation is wrong. I suspect that Concubine Rong and this Prince Yan have some secret connection."

"Master, Su Yi will go down and conduct a detailed investigation right away."

"Hehe! Since some people want to die, we have no choice but to oblige them."

"Master, what should we do with Zhao Linger?" Su Yi then looked at Su Ning with some confusion, because he knew that Su Ning really liked this woman who looked like "Sister Fairy".

"Huh! Su Yi, you've followed me for so long, do you really think I would lose my mind over a woman?"

……

Sheng Minglan was soon sent to the Ning Prince's Mansion by the Sheng family. The thirteen-year-old girl was undoubtedly nervous. She didn't understand why she was specifically asked by Ning Prince to go to the Ning Prince's Mansion. In contrast, she would rather stay with her mother and younger brother. She regarded the glory and status that others envied as a kind of bondage.

At first, Princess Huirou just looked at the little girl in front of her with curiosity. Apart from feeling that her eyes were big and bright enough, she didn't feel that there was anything outstanding or beautiful about her. Then she casually sent her to be trained by Su San, the housekeeper of Prince Ning's Mansion. After all, this was a procedure that every maid who entered the palace had to go through.

In stark contrast to Sheng Minglan's reluctance, the Sheng Mansion was in complete chaos. Madam Wang Ruofu and Sheng Hong's favorite concubine, Lin Qinshuang, were both a little bit unable to accept it. They were both madly jealous of Wei Xiaoniang and Sheng Minglan. Madam Wang Ruofu looked at Sheng Hong with a cold brow and questioned, "My lord, why did the prince choose that silly girl Sheng Minglan instead of our legitimate daughter, Sheng Ruolan?"

"Huh? If you ask me, who should I ask? If you have the guts, go to Prince Ning's mansion and ask Prince Ning in person." At this time, Sheng Hong looked at Wang Ruofu somewhat depressed. He didn't have the courage to go and question Su Ning about what he had done.

"Hmph! Don't think I don't know what you are doing in secret. It must be that old hag from Shou'an Hall who is behind it." Wang Ruofu, who was furious at the moment, immediately started to make random guesses without caring about anything and said some obscene words.

"Shut up! Insulting your own mother-in-law in public, is this how your Wang family taught you etiquette?" Seeing that the lady Wang Ruofu in front of him had crossed his bottom line, Sheng Hong immediately questioned her fiercely.

"Am I wrong? How is my Ruolan inferior to that stupid Ming girl? My mother-in-law took my Ruolan away by force, why didn't you fight for a good way out for Ruolan?" At this time, the furious wife Wang Ruofu was not afraid of Sheng Hong, but asked Sheng Hong back with confidence.

"Madam, our Sheng family is different now. It will be no problem for us to peacefully choose a good family to discuss marriage. Why do we have to go to that damn Ning Wang Mansion to be a maid?" Realizing that the madam in front of him was really angry, Sheng Hong simply stopped arguing with her, but continued to persuade the furious wife with earnest words.

"Humph! Which noble family in Bianjing City can compare with the Ning Wang Mansion?"

"This……"

"Sir, I, Wang Ruofu, am making this clear today. If the man from Shou'an Hall doesn't give me an explanation, my Wang family will definitely not let this go."

"Hmph! I think you are crazy, you are totally unreasonable." Seeing that Madam Wang Ruofu was so adamant and refused to listen, Sheng Hong left in anger.

Lin Qishuang and Sheng Molan also stayed in their own courtyard and started fighting angrily until all the porcelain in the house was smashed to pieces. Only then did they feel that they were no longer as upset as they were at the beginning. Lin Qishuang then remembered to look at her daughter and asked, "Molan, didn't you secretly meet with Prince Ning in the palace? Why is it such an embarrassing situation today?"

"Girl, if you ask me, who should I ask? I just can't accept that I am not as good as Minglan?" Sheng Molan also had a confused expression at this time. She thought that her figure and appearance were one in a million, and she was so well-educated and considerate. She really couldn't understand Suning's choice.

"Molan, there is only one way out in this situation. That is for us mother and daughter to go and beg your father together. This way, he can personally escort you into the palace. Even if you are only a maid, you will have the opportunity to seduce Prince Ning. Only then will we mother and daughter have a chance to turn things around."

"Mother, will Dad agree? I feel like it would be better to ask my elder sister, Madam Hua."

"My silly child! Your father is a favorite of Prince Ning. The Prince Ning's residence in Jiangning Prefecture was built under his personal supervision. As long as your father is willing to sacrifice himself and send you there, everyone will be happy."

"Mother, it's up to you to ask for Father's help." "Don't worry! For the sake of my Mo'er, I will fight for you this time."

"Thank you, little girl."

Lin Qinshuang is the woman who knows Sheng Hong's temper best. In order to make Sheng Hong submit, she has used all her skills, making Sheng Hong, an old hand, enjoy the pain and happiness. The grievances he had suffered from Madam Wei Ruixuan were also swept away. It seems that Lin Qinshuang is the kind person who understands Sheng Hong's feelings.

"Honglang, just take the trouble to send Mo'er to Prince Ning's Mansion." Looking at the satisfied stupid man beside her, Lin Qinshuang felt a sense of pride that she was in control of everything.

"Huh?" Hearing that Lin Qishuang was also concerned about the Ning Palace, Sheng Hong, who had just been enjoying himself, immediately became depressed again. He looked at Lin Qishuang with wide eyes and questioned angrily, "Mrs. Lin, the Yongchang Earl's Mansion is seeking our Mo'er in marriage. Why did you insist on sending Mo'er to the Ning Palace to be a maid?"

"Honglang, you are so confused! Liang Liulang is just the sixth son of the Liang family in the Earl of Yongchang. How can his wife have the glory of being the concubine of Prince Ning?" At this time, there is already a better and richer son-in-law. How could Lin Qinshuang look down on a poor man?

"Mrs. Lin, can you please let me worry less? We already have enough girls going to Prince Ning's mansion as concubines. Pinlan from the main house will be going there soon too. It would be better for Mo'er to find a noble family to marry into."

"Hmph! The Sheng family's first branch is just a merchant family. How could they have the good fortune to have their daughter become Prince Ning's concubine? Isn't it just the blessing of our Sheng family's second branch?"

"Uh..." At this moment, Sheng Hong looked at Lin Qinshuang in front of him blankly, as if he was formally meeting this woman for the first time.

"Besides, Sheng Shulan from the first house is already the concubine of Prince Ning. We might as well give Sheng Pinlan's place to our Mo'er." Lin Qinshuang, who was also extremely anxious at this time, had no time to hide her feelings. Instead, she spoke with an ugly look on her face.

"No! The matter of Pinlan was decided a long time ago. King Ning will not agree to it with his personality." Thinking of the murderous intent that Su Ning looked at him with, Sheng Hong trembled all over and refused directly.

"Honglang, how can you not know if you don't try? Why not just tell the prince that Sheng Pinlan is too young and let our Mo'er serve Prince Ning first?"

"Hmph! Absolutely impossible! You and the madam should just give up on this idea!" Sheng Hong angrily put on his clothes and left Lin Qinshuang's arms. He suddenly felt that Su Ning was the nightmare of their Sheng family.

"Hong Lang..."

……

As someone who had been sucking blood from the Sheng family, the Kang Wang family naturally knew everything about the Sheng family. Although they had long been aware of Prince Ning's dislike and disgust for both of them, the greedy Kang Wang family was unwilling to give up easily. So they immediately found their silly sister Wang Ruofu and said, "Sister, I don't believe you when I say you're silly! You and Rulan were fooled by the old lady and that bitch Wei Xiaoniang."

"Huh? Sister, you really misunderstood. Ming girl is the candidate chosen by Prince Ning." After her anger, Lady Wang Ruofu regained some of her rationality. She thought that it was really difficult to predict and judge who Su Ning would choose, and realized that maybe her Sheng Rulan really didn't have this fate.

"Silly sister, how could Prince Ning know who Minglan is? It was your old hag who did it in secret." Seeing that her silly sister was actually about to give up, how could the vicious Prince Kang give up? She immediately began to instigate her.

"Ah? This..."

"Sister, now that the situation is like this, why not just go all out and get to know your old hag and that Wei Xiaoniang thoroughly."

"What? Wouldn't that be a bad idea?"

"Don't worry! I will arrange everything for you. I will definitely be able to get rid of them silently. Then you will be able to call the shots in the Sheng family."

"..."

In fact, Wang Kang still used ginkgo bud juice to poison as in the original drama, and she was able to solve the problem of Old Lady Sheng and Wei Xiaoniang silently. However, all her actions were under the surveillance of the Jinyiwei, and every move was once again played out in front of Su Ning, and the end of the two sisters of the Wang family was extremely tragic.

"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you." Sheng Minglan timidly walked up to Su Ning and saluted.

"Minglan, why are you here?" Su Ning couldn't help but look at the little girl in front of him in surprise, and really wanted to reach out and rub her bun.

"My Lord, after I finished my training, both the Princess and the Su family asked me to serve you."

"Oh?" Su Ning looked at the little girl in front of him with a half-smile. Although she was not as beautiful as Zhao Linger, she still caught Su Ning's eye. Then he looked at the little girl with a smirk on his face and asked, "Minglan, do you know what you need to do to be my maid?"

"Your Highness, Lord Su has already explained everything, and I know everything clearly."

"Hehe, you don't understand, because being a maid means warming the king's bed."

"what……"

Su Ning directly picked up the little girl in front of him and walked towards Tingchao Pavilion. The little girl in his arms was naturally like a frightened rabbit. Zhao Linger and other personal maids lowered their heads and followed behind Su Ning and Sheng Minglan. All the servants in the palace lowered their heads and knelt on the ground wherever they passed.

On that day, Su Ning naturally got the heroine Sheng Minglan as he wished. That wonderful feeling made Su Ning feel very strange. It was a feeling he had never had with other women. Su Ning couldn't understand it and could only blame it on the fact that Sheng Minglan was the heroine in "Knowing".

After all, the heroine Sheng Minglan is still young at this time, and some of her bottom lines cannot be broken, so she still lets Zhao Linger serve her. Looking at the two women beside him, Su Ning showed a very proud smile, and suddenly felt that his original choice was not wrong. Only by making himself stronger can he get the good life he wants.

"Your Highness, my fourth and fifth sisters are more well-behaved and beautiful than me. Why don't you want them but me?"

"Minglan, are you curious about this question?"

"Ah."

"Minglan, if I tell you that I have been waiting for you to grow up, would you believe me?"

"what?"

"Silly girl, from now on you and Zhao Linger will stay by my side, and you will also need to help me sort out government affairs."

"Yes! Your Majesty, I will do my best."

"Well, I believe you."

Su Ning naturally knew that the little girl in front of him had great potential, and he couldn't help but want to cultivate her well and treat her as his work secretary. Maybe one day she would really give him a pleasant surprise. After all, Sheng Minglan was the destined heroine of this "Knowing" time and space.
