Chapter 171 The storm is coming and the wind fills the building (1)

9days ago Historical fiction 8
Zhang Ning wants to leave the Cult General Tower and go to the capital to go north.

Old Xu and his grandson went to the capital to deliver a letter, and they would wait there to meet; Peach Blossom Fairy took people to Nanjing; Zhao Erniang could not fight with fists and feet, and her physical condition was not good.

Therefore, Zhang Ning can't even use the trusted confidants. He needs someone to follow him to take care of him, and this person will be appointed by Yao Ji.

There were three people sent to him, one was Chunmei, and the other two male believers. It is said that the sword skills are good at taking care of horses.

Yao Ji was really nice to him. I wonder how she learned that he prefers spring plums rather than autumn leaves or the very inconsistent winter plums.

As if something went wrong in his mind, Zhang Ning decided to make a prank and privately told Yao Ji that he wanted Dongmei to go with him.

Yao Ji was puzzled, so he said seriously: When I was following Hubutang as an official, I saw the methods of the soldiers of the Jinyiwei. They stripped naked a young palace maid of the clothes in public to humiliate her, and the torture used even more in the imperial prison.Chunmei is too young and beautiful, and I suddenly feel a little embarrassed.

Perhaps it was a prank that she had retaliated against her for the past few days and did not meet her, Zhang Ning deliberately made Yao Ji sad.

But he didn't expect Yao Ji to be so sad. She was always very calm and cold.

In contrast, Yao Ji certainly didn't care much about her subordinate Chunmei. This sentence first reminded her of Zhang Ning's arrest.

Zhang Ning didn't see her lowered her head and remained silent.

She suddenly raised one hand and placed it on the other arm. The tendons on the back of her hand were tensed, and she clung to the skin on her arm.

Zhang Ning seemed to feel the stinging pain when his fair and tender skin was pinched up like this.

He was stunned and a little at a loss. The main reason is that Yao Ji is not like this, and she always has a smile on her face.Suddenly, something dripped from her face that was covered by her head.

Just a joke... Zhang Ning squatted down and looked up at her face, and hurriedly comforted her, "Think about what I did for years I was an official, and secretly investigated and arrested the rioters for Hu Ying. His opponents were all old martial arts worlds, and I had also seen me fall for it."Now that the enemy is bright and I am dark, it is not that easy for them to hold me?

At this time, Zhang Ning saw her close servant Xiaoyue walking to the door and looked up.

Yao Ji noticed it, as if her eyes were on her back, and suddenly she choked and said angrily without looking back: Go out!You go out, or I will kill you!

Xiaoyue was so scared that her face turned pale. She threw down the things in her hand and ran away in panic.

Yao Ji suddenly raised her head boldly, and didn't wipe the tears from her face. She said: I have never cried in front of others.

……

She didn't keep Zhang Ning in the end.

As soon as Zhang Ning came out to ward off the cult, he said to Chunmei who was accompanying him: Let's go to Nanjing first, and then go north along the canal.This road is a little circling, but it can avoid many dangers; the Jinyiwei comes from Beijing, so they will not take this road.In addition, calculating the time, maybe I could meet Taohua Fairy and the others on the way to Nanjing. They picked up my family and it was time to go back.

……

Nanjing has been windy these days, and it seems that you can still smell the salty smell from the ocean in the wind. The weather is gray and it may rain heavily.

Therefore, there are much fewer pedestrians on Liren Street than usual, and some people are guarding the door of the shop and looking up at the sky and muttering something.

The peach blossom fairy was wearing a hat on her head and was standing on the arch bridge on the Qingxi River. She pointed to an inn on the other side of the river and ordered the people around her: Go to the house on the street and stare at the entrance of the alley.

A man turned around and left.The Taohua Fairy was thinking in her mind: The Zhang family’s house is in a small alley, surrounded by private houses, so it is not convenient to hide. It is better to set up a foothold at both ends of the alley for easy handling.

The weather is now like a storm is coming and wind is filling the building, but after careful observation, it is actually very quiet and silence, and nothing is going to happen.

Peach Blossom Fairy and others are not very eye-catching.

Nanjing is originally a big city with a large number of migrant populations.

This place turned out to be the capital of the Ming Dynasty, with many talents emerging. Many people in Nanjing worked as officials in the capital or other places, and many people came back to visit relatives. It is a hub point connecting the north-south trade line of the road and the distribution of sea and land. The commerce and workshop manufacturing industry are developed, and it is not surprising to see strangers here with accents of the country and the south; and there are also many people who come to travel and play. The ancient capital of the Six Dynasties is located, and some place names have inexplicably become famous and have stories circulated, so the originally extremely ordinary streets and houses seem to become meaningful, as if this is the foundation.

People like Peach Blossom Fairy are all possible, including the family members of officials, businessmen, and people who travel around the country, and it is not worth making a fuss.

Send someone to explore the good road, and the Taohua Fairy waited until the night before entering the alley, because she knew that the people in Zhang Ning's family were running the Yunjin Shop, and the men in broad daylight should not be at home.

When I knocked on the gate, I saw a strong man standing in front of me, and a middle-aged man standing behind me looking here vigilantly.

You are... The strong man stood at the door without any intention of letting them in.Four or five strangers suddenly appeared at the door of the house, and there was a woman covering her face. Anyone would behave like this.

Taohua Fairy said: Are you the elder brother of the Zhang family named Shicai?We are sent by Lord Zhang. Here are my own letters from Lord Zhang. Please read them.

Zhang Shicai suddenly felt something, took the letter, and then he greeted politely: Come in and speak.He turned around and shouted, Erlang's people, prepare some tea.

He handed the letter to Zhang Jiujin first, and Zhang Jiujin clasped his fists and said: Don’t know what to call it?

Fairy Taohua said: My surname is Wang, and I have important matters entrusted by Lord Zhang.You don't have to be polite, just look at his letters first.

Please drink a cup of thin tea in the room.Zhang Jiujin said.

The Taohua Fairy entered the house as she said, but the other four men in the civilians did not sit, but just stood.

Zhang Jiujin looked at several people carefully, then pulled open the envelope and browsed it quickly. His face became increasingly ugly, and then his hands trembled.

Later, Zhang Shicai, who came in, saw this and went to read the letter.

This Erlang... Zhang Jiujin walked.

The Taohua Fairy hurriedly said: It’s time to blame Lord Zhang. You should just inform the people at home immediately.

What did he do? Even we will run away?

Zhang Jiujin angrily patted the chair and took a breath and said, "On the ground in Nanjing, I often hear officials being convicted. It is already very serious to dismiss the government and return home. At worst, some people are searching for the stolen goods."Erlang has not brought back much money in recent years. The Zhang family’s money and real estate are clearly stated and there are accounts to check. We are innocent. We are not afraid of the government’s investigation of the stolen goods!

Fairy Taohua said: If you are not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of one. Since Lord Zhang has given the order, it may be a serious matter.You should take your family out for a while. If you find out that your family is fine, it will not be a problem to come back.

Zhang Jiujin raised the envelope in his hand: We don’t know you, so with such a letter, we want our family to leave our hometown?What to do with the shop? Who will collect the rent in the countryside...

Listen to me, these are all trivial matters. Lord Zhang will definitely only compensate you more or less for the losses at that time.Peach Blossom Fairy said.

After a while, the two women also came to the door, but they didn't come in. A younger woman was holding a girl less than ten years old.

Zhang Shicai, who was sitting next to his father, also took over the words: It’s a big deal, but it’s hard to tell whether the truth is true or false. Of course, we recognize Erlang’s calligraphy, but we don’t read much at home except him, so we have to ask others to distinguish the calligraphy carefully.

After hearing this, Zhang Jiujin tried to be polite: Don’t worry about being too careful. After all, we have never lived a lifetime, and your accent is not right... You, the person in charge, are still covered.

The Peach Blossom Fairy was speechless for a moment and took off her hat neatly. She saw a charming face and a gorgeous red flower painted on her left cheekbones, making her originally wearing simple and green cloth clothes gorgeous.

Zhang Shicai was stunned, his eyes were a little straight, and his wife outside the door showed a hint of hostility when she saw this.

Zhang Jiujin frowned, and it was obvious that the face of the Peach Blossom Fairy was obviously not a good woman.

Taohua Fairy said: You can find someone to tell the authenticity of the handwriting, but there are two things: Don’t show all the contents of the letter to others to avoid any extraneous problems; be quick, let’s come again tomorrow night, how about it?

After hearing this, Zhang Jiujin nodded. The Peach Blossom Fairy didn't drag her back and stood up: So let's say goodbye first.

The father and son also stood up and sent Taohua Fairy and others out of the yard.

When Zhang Jiujin came back, he looked angry and scolded Zhang Ning first.

The son he picked up by his deceased brother was indeed very worried. He used to think that he would benefit from his academic achievements, but as a result, he caused great trouble to his family again and again!

Whether it is an assassin at home or an assault on the government, it seems to be a huge deal to Zhang Jiujin, who is responsible for doing business.

Being at home for a thousand days, and going out for more than half a day.The people who leave their hometown are humble.

Zhang Shicai was not very willing to escape.

Escape from the hometown and purchasing goods are completely different things. There is no guarantee for places that are not familiar with.

Nanjing has always been a prosperous place in the world for the past fifty or sixty years since its founding. There have never been a famine and famine to escape, but people have heard of stories about famine.

Zhang Jiujin said: If the government really wants to punish us, even if we run away, we will never be able to be safe in our lives. Our Zhang family has been done for generations!How can we survive in the future?Go to be a bandit who robbed the house, or work for another family for slaves?

Erlang is our adopted son, so he is not that heavy even, right?There are still several other families in the countryside who know about this and can testify.Then the government will ask about this section.Cerry couldn't help but say something.

Women's opinion!

Zhang Jiujin hummed angrily, do you know what it means to sit in a company? If you really want to kill the nine clans, you can’t escape the master, relative, or clique who teach you. Is there any difference between a biological child or an adopted son?

The family was frowning here. The meal was already prepared, but no one thought of putting it on.
