Chapter 560 I won’t give up
On the pavilion, Jiang Ningwan saw Song Jiaoyun's departing back, who seemed to be angry.
"Have you offended anyone?" Jiang Ningwan raised her eyes and looked at Qin Shuangchi who had just walked over.
Qin Shuangchi picked up the teacup and said, "It's quite annoying."
"Is Song Mingyu still pestering you?"
Jiang Ningwan shook her head. "After I made things clear with him last time, he never came to see me again."
Hearing this, Qin Shuangchi frowned, "Then why does Song Jiaoyun keep coming here again and again?"
He is not at Yunshan Yao every day.
A few days ago, Zhu Qing said that Song Jiaoyun had come to see him several times, and including today, he had come five or six times.
Jiang Ningwan said calmly, "If you really want to annoy her, why not hide away for a while?"
Qin Shuangchi's eyes lit up, "How about hiding in Prince Chu's mansion? Can General Jiang take me in?"
Jiang Ningwan was shocked. "Are you crazy? What if someone finds out?"
Qin Shuangchi thought for a moment and said, "What about the Jiang residence? If you don't live there all the time, no one will notice."
"Look at Song Jiaoyun. She might come again tomorrow. If I keep hiding from her in Yunshan Yao, it will be very troublesome. It's better to go somewhere else and spend a few days in peace and quiet."
"Oh, and take Lai Fu to Jiang's house too. I'll teach you how to train him."
Jiang Ningwan was a little hesitant, but after Qin Shuangchi's full persuasion, Jiang Ningwan finally agreed.
"Okay then, I'll let you stay at the Jiang residence for a few days, but you have to change your clothes. You'll stand out so much if you're dressed like this. If you walk down the street, everyone will look at you twice."
Qin Shuangchi smiled dotingly, "Everything is subject to General Jiang's arrangements!"
In order to be less conspicuous, Qin Shuangchi changed into normal clothes, still wearing the mask, and temporarily moved into Jiang's house.
There are not many servants in Jiang's house, but they are all reliable.
Qin Shuangchi moved in as a gardener to hide his identity.
Lai Fu was also brought to Jiang's house.
The spacious yard was very quiet. Lai Fu ran over and picked up the ball of fur that Jiang Ningwan threw, and put it in her hand.
Jiang Ningwan would reward it with dried meat.
If you touch Lai Fu’s head again, it will be very happy.
After staying in Yunshan for a while, the training has been effective. If I see food, I will still be tempted, but I won’t rush to eat it.
When feeding it on weekdays, it has to wait for Jiang Ningwan's command before letting it eat.
The aroma of cooking in the kitchen was so fragrant that Lai Fu never stole chickens again. He had completely changed.
Jiang Ningwan lay leisurely in a chair, basking in the sun, drinking tea and eating snacks.
Watch Qin Shuangchi playing with Lai Fu and training Lai Fu's attack power.
The yard was filled with the sound of dogs barking.
But Jiang Ningwan felt that this scene was particularly beautiful.
"You're really capable. You've trained Laifu so well. Were you a dog trainer before?"
Qin Shuangchi smiled and said, "In the past, the army had search dogs, and they were all trained in this way."
"Before? Then it's gone now?"
"Those dogs from the north are now old and have been taken care of in the homes of wealthy families."
Jiang Ningwan nodded thoughtfully, "I see."
At this moment, Li Qiu came hurriedly, "Miss, there is a Mr. Song outside who wants to see you. He said he has something important to tell you."
Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was slightly startled, "Mr. Song? Which Mr. Song?"
"They said they were from the city defense camp."
Jiang Ningwan's heart sank. It was Song Mingyu.
Why is he here.
"Let him in."
After saying that, Jiang Ningwan quickly stood up and pushed Qin Shuangchi into the room, "Go hide first."
Qin Shuangchi spread out his hands, "He won't recognize me if I dress like this."
"That won't work either. We still have to be more cautious!"
Jiang Ningwan pushed Qin Shuangchi into the room and said, "Don't make a sound!"
After saying that, he immediately closed the door.
Soon, Song Mingyu was brought over by Li Qiu.
Jiang Ningwan lay leisurely on the chair and said, "Sit down."
"Why did Master Song find his way here?"
Song Mingyu looked around and said, "I went to the Prince of Chu's Mansion to look for the general. They said you were at the Jiang residence, so I came here."
"I thought the Prince Chu's Mansion was grand enough, but I didn't expect this Jiang Residence to be even more magnificent. It's also very quiet and a great place to be alone."
Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan smiled and asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Song Mingyu sat down, opened the food box in his hand, and put out a plate of cakes. "I know General Jiang likes sweet-scented osmanthus flavored cakes, so I bought some when I passed by the cake shop. They're still hot."
As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that there were two teacups on the table.
"Does the General have any other guests?"
Jiang Ningwan took a look and was stunned for a moment, "Oh, this is... this is for Lai Fu to drink."
"Woof!" Lai Fu barked in cooperation and ran to Song Mingyu, wagging his tail.
Song Mingyu smiled in surprise and touched Lai Fu's head, "Lai Fu is living a really good life."
Jiang Ningwan smiled and quickly changed the subject: "By the way, what's the important matter you want to talk to me about?"
Song Mingyu then spoke: "The city defense battalion recently patrolled and caught several spies. We have found out that they are spies sent by Dahan!"
Jiang Ningwan nodded thoughtfully, "Dahan... after Ru Mengzui, they are still eyeing us covetously and haven't given up yet."
"But what did the interrogation reveal? What will Dahan do next?"
Song Mingyu couldn't hide his excitement as he said, "The interrogation revealed something! They've already released a new version of Ru Meng Zui in the Huainan area, disguised as ordinary alcohol. I heard that this Ru Meng Zui is even more potent, and once you get addicted, you can't quit."
"I've already reported this to the court! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that he would give me a credit for this achievement, and once the Mengzui incident is resolved, he would promote me to deputy commander of the city defense battalion."
Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was a little surprised, "Promoted so quickly? Congratulations."
Song Mingyu said somewhat embarrassedly: "Your Highness should also be considering General Jiang's face."
Jiang Ningwan quickly said, "No, no, don't belittle yourself. This is your own achievement and your own earned future. It has nothing to do with me."
"If you weren't capable, His Highness wouldn't have promoted you so easily."
Hearing these words, Song Mingyu was filled with joy.
"I've remembered what General Jiang said to me last time. A man should first establish a career before starting a family."
"I will strive to reach the same height as the general!"
Jiang Ningwan ate melon seeds and nodded, but after listening, she suddenly felt something was wrong.
"Is this what I told you?"
Song Mingyu's eyes sparkled with anticipation, and he nodded firmly, "Yes."
"During this period, I haven't slacked off for a single moment. I even go on patrol myself, doing everything to the utmost, leaving no room for error."
"In my free time, I practice spear and sword skills to improve my martial arts. I know there's still a long way to go, and it will be difficult to catch up with the general."
"But I won't give up!"
The more Jiang Ningwan listened, the more confused she became. "Did you misunderstand something? You're fighting for a future for yourself and the Song family, so you have to stand high."
"What does it have to do with me?"
"Also, why are you chasing after me? You're going in the wrong direction!"
Song Mingyu smiled and said, "General Jiang is my goal, that's for sure!"
Jiang Ningwan was stunned, hoping she wasn't overthinking it.
Just as he was about to speak, there was a noise in the room and the door opened.
A person suddenly walked out, scaring Song Mingyu.
"Why...why are there still people here?"
Jiang Ningwan quickly explained: "This is the mansion's gardener, he's mute."
Qin Shuangchi glanced over and was about to speak, but he swallowed his words back.
