Chapter 201: Dreaming about controlling them
Chapter 201: Dreaming about controlling them
Ning Zhiwei hesitated for a moment and said, "Become a female official."
They are just too idle. They stay in the backyard all day doing nothing and just fighting with each other. It would be better to keep them busy.
When people are busy, they won’t have any random thoughts.
The Seventh Young Master's wife never expected this, "Ah? What?"
Ning Zhi smiled and said, "Seventh Brother admires people who are capable and talented the most. As long as you are amazing and make people look at you with admiration, he will naturally look up to you."
The daughters-in-law of the Ning family were all carefully selected. They were of equal status, literate, and of good character.
The Seventh Young Master's wife was a little tempted, but it was a little difficult to take this step. "I can't do it. I don't know how to do it."
Ning Zhiwei's eyes rolled around, "Big sister is doing very well in Baiyun County now. She has done a lot of good things for the people, won their praise, and accumulated a lot of virtue for herself. Many men are sincerely seeking to marry her."
The Seventh Young Master’s wife was stunned. Is there such a thing?
Madam Ning excitedly grabbed Ning Zhiwei's arm, "Is this true?"
Ning Wenyin is her eldest daughter and the apple of her eye. She couldn't sleep because of the heartache she felt when she thought about what happened to her daughter.
She was also worried about her daughter's future. What would she do without a husband or children?
Although the clan will take care of her retirement, no one can compare to having a caring husband and filial children.
Ning Zhi smiled and nodded, "Really, but big sister has very high standards. She doesn't like ordinary people. Only those who are particularly outstanding can catch her eye."
Madam Ning's eyes sparkled. "Has someone been chosen?"
Ning Zhiwei opened his mouth, but changed his mind before he could finish his words. It was too early, so let them develop slowly.
"Ahem, I can't say. I can only say that if it really happens, it will be a blessing for both parties."
Ning Wenyin is gentle and dignified, and Zhou Hongye is extremely talented. She did not expect that these two people would create sparks.
Madam Ning was extremely happy. Ning Zhiwei said it was a good thing, which meant that she must have passed this hurdle.
Ning Zhiwei has a high vision.
When she thought about her daughter being able to remarry and have someone to rely on for life, she couldn't help but cry for joy and held Ning Zhiwei's hand tightly. All this was thanks to her.
Unexpectedly, the Seventh Young Master's wife said, "Wen Yin is a married woman, how can this be possible?"
Madam Ning's face changed drastically, and Ning Zhiwei rolled her eyes unhappily, "Is there anything wrong with a widow getting married again?"
She spoke so confidently that even the Seventh Young Master's wife was stunned. Is that okay?
"That's not right. She is still a wife of the Qi family. How can she get married again?"
"I mean, that's it. If I say it's not, then it's not." Ning Zhiwei sneered, "Qi family? Your words don't count. If they dare to confront me, I will lead my troops to destroy them."
The late emperor’s order is too deceptive, just ignore it.
Now she has no respect for the royal family at all, and is full of rebellious thoughts.
Madam Seventh Young Master: ...
Ning Zhiwei is too domineering, how can she bully others like this? But, I am so moved.
Ning Zhiwei saw her excitement and said, "See? No matter you are a woman or a man, if you want others to look at you squarely and listen to you, you have to stand on a high position."
This was so true. The Seventh Young Master's wife was eager to make a move. She wanted the man to look her in the eye. "But, what can I do?"
Ning Zhiwei thought for a moment and said, "There is so much that can be done. Xiaoliu is in charge of the orphanage and she is very busy. You can go and help her."
She had no experience, so she had to find someone to guide her.
"When you get used to it and become more capable, you can switch to another position. I am short of manpower now."
The Seventh Young Master's wife became more and more excited, "Then I'll give it a try."
Ning Zhiwei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, finally he managed to fool the guy. Stop making a fuss and do something practical.
The officials in charge of the six cities were a little confused when they received the notice. Asking them to go and meet Ning Zhiwei?
Was she mistaken? She had no official position, and the court had never issued any relevant appointment. How could she have the nerve to let these court officials come to see her?
In what name?!
Is she trying to seize power? Dream on!
However, the Ning family soldiers sent to deliver the letter did not care about their little thoughts, "Hurry up and write a reply, I still need to send it back."
The Luocheng County Magistrate was confused. "Are you Ning Family Army really willing to support a woman to the top?"
What a joke, letting a woman lead troops to fight?
General Luo Cheng shouted coldly, "Please address her as Commander Ning. If you dare to be rude again, don't blame me for being rude."
General Ning's most beloved granddaughter was a ruthless person who won the first place in the military competition and her archery skills were the best among the three armies.
In times of danger, she was the hero who stepped forward and sent the food and fodder she had collected to the northwest, helping them get through the most difficult times.
It can be said that she saved the lives of all the brothers, so does it matter whether she is a boy or a girl?
However, Luo City had fallen before, but was later redeemed through exchange between the two sides. The county magistrate who had abandoned the city and fled also came back to serve as an official.
However, the military power of Luo City has long been controlled by the Ning Family Army. The guards at the four city gates are the Ning Family Army, and the troops stationed outside the city are also the Ning Family Army.
The prefect was just a weak scholar and was no match for the Ning family army.
The magistrate of Luocheng cursed the bandits in his heart, but there was nothing he could do as he had to consider other people's moods.
"I am... very busy with official duties, I am afraid I cannot spare the time..."
General Luo Cheng sneered. Don't want to go? "That's a notification, not an invitation? Understand? Don't be ungrateful."
He looked down on this spineless man from the bottom of his heart. As a county magistrate, he abandoned the people of the city and ran away, only to come back in a swagger afterwards as if nothing had happened.
The imperial court did not investigate the mistakes of these people, and whitewashed the situation. What kind of nonsense is this? Everything is rotten from top to bottom, and the only unlucky ones are the civilians and the soldiers at the border.
The magistrate of Luocheng County turned green in the face, feeling very aggrieved. Fine, if you insist on forcing me to go, then don't blame me for causing trouble.
"Okay, I'll listen to the general."
As soon as General Luo Cheng left, he couldn't wait to contact other county magistrates to discuss matters.
They will never allow a woman to climb over their heads and show off her power. If you want to control them, you're dreaming.
The six county magistrates agreed to go together. When they stood in front of Yumen Pass, they were full of high morale and energy.
Hey, why didn't anyone come to pick them up?
"First take a look at the city."
As soon as you enter the city, you will find that the atmosphere is different. The roads are clean, the streets are bustling, there are constant sounds of hawking, and the pedestrians coming and going are in good spirits. It looks very lively.
Is this still the dead silent Yumen Pass? It feels different now that it has a master.
"Where should we go first?"
"First find an inn, then act according to the plan."
At the same time, Ning Zhiwei received a call, "My Lord, six county magistrates have entered the city and are staying at Ping'an Inn."
From the moment they entered Yumen Pass, every move reached Ning Zhiwei's ears.
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, her eyes full of anticipation, "Making trouble? Okay, I can't wait for you to make trouble."
