Chapter 677 Reunion

When the sky was about to dawn, Song Nan and his entourage had already left Nanjing and drove to Pukou Ferry. At dawn, they crossed the river and returned to Wujiang Town. They returned the tea purchase vouchers and other things on the road to the group of Shandong tea dealers, ordered people to give some silver rewards, and asked Li Daniu to educate them well and let them die. Don't mention this.

How dare those people say more? They thought they would lose their lives. Now they not only didn't lose their lives, but also got a reward. This Nanjing city vendor. The business of selling tea can no longer go. Now pack it up and leave. For safety reasons, Wang Yong ordered the two brocade guards to secretly follow them back, but they were all killed immediately.

After a half-day rest, Song Nan took the guard, Wang Yong, Li Daniu and others to cross the Yangtze River again, and entered Nanjing City in the evening. This time it is called open and upright.

After entering the city, Song Nan immediately ordered Wang Zitong to mobilized 3,000 brocade guards to gather. The large-scale assembly immediately attracted the attention of Yingtianfu government and Nanjing's military guard admiral. When the brocade guards drove to the square in front of Zhengyangmen of the Nanjing Palace, there were officials of Yingtianfu government and Nanjing defenders. They came from all directions, and the two sides gathered together in the big square.

"What's the point of gathering here? What about Wang Zitong? Come out and talk." Tang Jue, the right servant of the Nanjing Military Department, shouted and asked.

Lu Pingzhang, the magistrate of Yingtianfu, and Xu Wei, the admiral of Nanjing's military guard, were all present. A fire had just occurred in the palace, and Gu Dayong was strangled to death in the rear office of Si Lijian. They were busy cleaning up the mess, and the Jinyiwei suddenly gathered around, which made them a little nervous.

Wang Zitong did not move, because he couldn't speak here. Song Nan slowly stepped forward on a big dark horse and arched his hand and said, "Your Excellency, Song Nan, if you have anything to ask me."

Tang Jue was surprised and said, "Marquis Song, didn't you leave?"

Song Nan said, "Yes, I have already arrived in Fengyang Mansion, Zhongdu, but I received a flying pigeon biography on the way, saying that the Nanjing Palace was besieged by evil people and the palace was burned down. He also said that Eunuch Gu, the leader of the Nanjing Si Lijian, was assassinated in the palace. I don't know if that's the case?"

"Lord Song, there is indeed this matter. We gathered here to deal with the aftermath and seize the murderer." Tang Jue said.

Song Nan looked up at a place in the palace with smoke under the evening sky and shook his head and said, "It's incredible. Such a thing will happen. I don't know what can be found."

"The matter of investigating and detecting the murderer is the matter of my local government office in Nanjing. Marquis Song doesn't have to care too much about it. Does he think that Nanjing City is not chaotic enough to come here with thousands of brocade guards?" Xu Wei, the admiral of Nanjing's military guard, said coldly.

Song Nan frowned and said, "Excuse my clumsy eyes, is this one?"

Huang Jue hurriedly said, "Oh, this is Xu Wei, the admiral of Nanjing's military guard."

Song Nan looked at Xu Wei and said, "Lord Xu, you mean I'm nosy?"

Xu Wei said, "Please take someone away. I will deal with the matter here."

Song Nan sneered and said, "Do you think I'm here to take care of your broken things? You don't have the ability to let people kill people in the Nanjing Palace. How to deal with the aftermath of this matter is naturally your business. I learned that I came here just to come back to protect the princess's safety. Before I came, I knew that Princess Corning lived in the palace in Nanjing. Now, there are strong people in the palace. Grand Duke Gu, the leader of Si Li, was killed in the palace. I suspect that you don't have the ability to protect the princess at all. I'm here to protect you. I want to escort the princess from Nanjing back to the capital. The princess's safety is more important than everything else.

Song Nan said, "Princess, don't worry. The princess's safety is a big deal. After returning to Beijing, the ministers will explain this to the emperor and the empress dowager. There is no problem. The Empress Dowager will not only not blame, but also agree with our decision.

Corning nodded and said, "Yes, will the mother ignore my safety? Then Song Nan, let's go."

Song Nan said, "It's getting late today. It's better to start tomorrow morning."

Cangning said, "I don't want to stay in the palace for a day."

Song Nan said, "Princess, please be patient for a day. Tonight, I will dispatch Jinyi Wei Tiqi to protect the princess's safety in person. Please rest assured."

Cangning said, "Do you protect it yourself?"

Song Nan scratched her head and said, "Yes."

"Okay, that's up to you." Corning laughed.

Song Nan sighed and lowered her head and said, "Please give an order, or you will object."

Corning said to the officials in Nanjing, "You have heard it. From now on, the safety of this palace will be handed over to Lord Song. Don't worry about it. Immediately go and find out last night's case. It's better to give an explanation before leaving the palace, so that the palace can also respond to the emperor's inquiry after returning to Beijing.

The officials bent down and muttered in their hearts that the princess didn't understand anything. How could such a big case be found out so quickly? Isn't this nonsense? But at this point, I have to agree respectfully.

Kang Ning left Song Nan's words and asked the others to leave. When the hall was empty, Kang Ning quickly ran down from his seat, like a flying bird, and rushed into Song Nan's arms. Before Song Nan had a chance to speak, her mouth was blocked by Kang Ning, and suddenly her tongue was entangled.

Song Nan quickly picked up Kangning and came to the dark place in the corner of the temple to avoid being found. The two hugged each other and kissed and talked.

Corning was not stupid. The first sentence was to ask, "How did Gu Dayu die?" I can only ask you about this."

Song Nan frowned and smiled bitterly and whispered, "Are you going to interrogate me?"

Corning smiled and said, "As soon as he dies, I suspect that you did it. Whoever dares to touch me, you will kill him, I know."

Song Nan smiled and said, "Yes, whoever dares to care about our affairs will survive. What's more, this man has not only done these things. Come on, give me another taste of your little tongue, and then I will tell you slowly."
