Chapter 602 He Did What He Said

Shen Ningning frowned and muttered: "Is it because Master Ma is unwilling to give in again?"

Mo Lingwei put down his chopsticks and looked sideways at the guard standing by: "Follow and have a look.

"yes."

The two guards followed Shopkeeper Wen to the front yard.

After a while, they returned, and Shopkeeper Wen said: "Many people came outside. They said they wanted to meet the prince and the princess..."

He looked a little embarrassed. After all, the prince and princess had high status and could meet wherever they could.

But there were too many people at the door, hundreds of them, all carrying vegetables, fruits, and eggs from home. Shopkeeper Wen didn't have the ability to say no for Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei.

The guard said: "Your Highness, you can ask them to leave because of your humble position."

Mo Lingwei looked at Shen Ningning, and the girl blinked her round eyes: "You are the prince, you make the decision, what do you want me to do?"

"When I'm out, I listen to you."

Shen Ningning pouted: "What about at home?"

"Listen to it at home, too." Mo Lingwei lowered his voice, a smile flashing in his thin eyes.

These words made Shen Ningning feel happy, and she cleared her throat in a disguised manner: "I think we should meet? You are the crown prince and the future emperor of Cangyun Kingdom. You can have such close contact with the people and hear their true thoughts. Not much time, actually.”

Hearing this, Mo Lingwei pondered for a moment and nodded: "You are right."

After the two decided, they each put down their chopsticks and went out to greet the people together.

The enthusiasm of the people was beyond Shen Ningning's imagination. As soon as they walked to the door, the people standing in front knelt down immediately when they saw it. The people behind them followed suit, crowding the whole alley, and the roar of the mountain and the tsunami of greetings followed. Come.

The guards stood at the door with a stern look. The prince and princess were of high status, and the people even looked up and felt awe and fear.

The leader of the people said: "Master Ma's family is domineering in our Pingcheng City. We common people have always been bullied and squeezed by him. Now their family has been punished. It's great. It's all thanks to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and his family." Her Royal Highness the Princess has made a wise decision, these things are a small token of our gratitude, and please accept them."

The people held up the gifts of thanks they had brought, and some even brought the only hen at home.

Mo Lingwei half-protected Shen Ningning in his arms, looked at them and said, "As a prince, I should have solved this kind of injustice for you. The people are the foundation of the country, you don't need to say thank you."

An aunt took courage and asked tremblingly: "Your Highness, if there is an injustice, but the government has not redressed it, can you take care of it?"

Mo Lingwei immediately became serious: "Okay."

He glanced sideways and ordered the guards to take the aunt to the concierge temporarily, and he would ask her alone later.

Unexpectedly, this aunt made the first move, and the rest of the people followed suit, talking about the injustice they had suffered.

Mo Lingwei pursed his lips: "Then line up and listen one by one."

Shen Ningning said that this kind of opportunity to be close to the people's livelihood is precious and he should cherish it, so he is not afraid of hard work and must consult everything personally.

Shopkeeper Wen cleared out his study yard and gave it to Mo Lingwei for temporary use.

The lights in the courtyard burned all night and did not go out. People coming in and out formed a long queue in Wen Mansion.

Mo Lingwei also came into contact with them and realized that there were too many grievances that had been covered up in this world. The emperor, sitting high in the hall, might never know how the people were living far away from the capital.

Shen Ningning never disturbed Mo Lingwei, except staying with him quietly and occasionally helping him pour tea.

When Mo Lingwei needed advice, she also gave him a few words. No matter who looked at him, she looked like a virtuous wife.

Although Fu Nu's reputation was greater than that of the prince in the hearts of the people, the princess's actions made the people more convinced that the prince was responsible for real power.

Shen Ningning's calmness affected the importance of the prince in the hearts of the people.

She would not take away Mo Lingwei's influence just because of her halo. She would only speak out when necessary.

At the second watch, there were still many people queuing outside.

Mo Lingwei urged Shen Ningning to rest: "Go to bed early. We will set off by boat early tomorrow morning."

Shen Ningning hesitated: "What about you?"

Mo Lingwei raised his chin and motioned her to look at the long queue of people outside.

"They are all wearing stars and moons like this, how can I rest now? Some things are not urgent for me, but they may be fatal for them. Just listen to them all tonight. You go and rest. I will be on the boat during the day tomorrow. Go to sleep and take care of me."

When he said this, there was a smile in his voice. Shen Ningning snorted, a little coquettishly: "What a good plan."

She was indeed sleepy, so she didn't refuse and left the study.

When she walked to the door of the yard, Shen Ningning couldn't help but look back and looked at Mo Lingwei sitting in the brightly lit room.

The privileged life he was born with has cultivated his nobility that cannot be concealed, and now his seriousness has added countless calm charms to him.

Mo Lingwei has matured a lot after all.

This time, Shen Ningning looked at him not as if she were looking at a friend, but as if she was looking at the husband she had chosen to spend her whole life with.

Mo Lingwei is a reliable person, and they will have a happy family.

Shen Ningning left with peace of mind.

The next day, she gave Shopkeeper Wen a big rooster, which began to crow when the sky was dark.

Shopkeeper Wen ran and crawled, rushing to the chicken coop, fearing that the rooster would disturb the princess and the prince from resting.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the chicken coop, he saw his daughter Wen Xiaoman feeding rabbits.

"Xiaoman, why did you get up so early?"

"I just sent the princess and the others to the ferry, and just came back."

Shopkeeper Wen was shocked: "Her Royal Highness the Princess and the others have left?"

Wen Xiaoman put down the basket: "Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince was busy until the fourth watch, and Her Royal Highness the Princess felt that he was too tired, so she let him sleep on the boat."

The boats from Pingcheng only come at noon, but Mo Lingwei's identity is not ordinary. When Wen Xiaoman sent them to the ferry, he saw that there was already a big boat waiting.

Shen Ningning was also a little surprised, and then she knew that Mo Lingwei had arranged everything on the way here.

He said that with him, she would not have to worry about or think about any problems, and only needed to focus on completing what she wanted to complete, and he would take care of the rest.

The tall pleasure boat stretched out its waves towards the rising morning sun.

Even though Mo Lingwei was too sleepy to open his eyes, he still held Shen Ningning's hand. He lay on the couch, drowsy, watching her sitting next to him reading a book.

He asked sleepily: "So you suddenly ran away before the engagement, what was the matter?"

Shen Ningning put down the book and looked at him seriously: "My mother is coming back."
