Chapter 121 The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water

Are you going to leave or give in?

Zhang Ning said to the person in the carriage, then looked back.

Wang Zhen was very expert in this kind of small move. He understood it at a glance and hurriedly said: You are an official, go first.

Zhang Ning then asked the groom to lead the horse and continue walking. When he arrived outside the gate of Zhengjue Temple, he said to the groom: You lead the horse back first, I will go in and burn incense to get rid of bad luck.

There are monks in Zhengjue Temple, and you can also buy incense on site. The price is much more expensive than on the market. However, paying money to the temple is a way to accumulate virtue and do good deeds, so selling incense, candle oil and other things is also a big income for Zhengjue Temple.

Zhang Ning took out some copper coins, bought some incense at will and went to the main hall to light it and bow.

There were very few people in the temple. Around this time, the officials had their own affairs before the time was ready, and ordinary people had their own affairs. It was the afternoon again, and Zhang Ning only met two strange women who came to worship Buddha.

He stayed in the temple for a while, and sure enough, he saw Wang Zhen walk in.

Zhang Ning then walked forward and turned around the corner of the wall along the eaves of the main hall, waiting for Wang Zhen to come over, and then whispered: I just returned to Beijing, there may be factory guards staring at me, so be cautious.

Brother Ping'an is right.Wang Zhen nodded quickly, what progress has been made in leaving Beijing this time?

After Wang Zhen said that, he didn't hear a sound, so he went to see Zhang Ning's face, and saw him lowering his head and frowning and thinking about something.

After a while, he reached into his sleeve bag, took out a piece of paper and handed it over: You can take this, you will understand after reading it, without further description.

Wang Zhen was curious and opened it and took a look, blurted out: Drafting the memorial... Brother Ping'an's handwriting?Is it the memorial you presented to the imperial city just now?

Zhang Ning nodded: No word is wrong, but this handwriting is relatively sloppy. I have changed some words and sentences and just read them.

Wang Zhen's face suddenly showed a strange red light: Godfather said that the last time was really up to Brother Ping'an, otherwise we would have to suffer a lot.Don’t worry, my godfather is a kind person and a sensible person. I must remember this affection between Brother Ping’an; even our family is not the ungrateful person. Whoever treats us is good or bad to us, our family is very clear!And Brother Ping'an is a good person to our family!

Zhang Ning was a little uncomfortable because he was so eccentric about it, mainly because he was tired of this guy Wang Zhen.

Zhang Ning said seriously: Brother Wang doesn’t need to say this. In this world, only parents and the people closest to him are the ones who are really good to him. It’s better to be a little bit lighter in other relationships.

The same is true, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water!hey-hey!Wang Zhen said happily.

When Zhang Ning heard this, he knew that he did not understand what he meant. His meaning was that no one owe anyone. It was all for the sake of interests. If he could benefit and win-win, he would naturally be able to make friends. There would be no substantial conflicts. As long as he had verbal speculation, he would not be able to explain the interests clearly once they conflict...

Just like Hu Ying, the relationship with Zhang Ning was pretty good at the beginning, and it was from the Yongle era. It was considered an old friendship. Hu Ying also wanted to win over Zhang Ning as an alliance. As a result, nothing was gone.

I don’t want to stay here for a long time, so I won’t say much. I will say goodbye first and then there will be a date.Zhang Ning clasped his fists and said.Wang Zhen hurriedly hid the paper and bowed his hand to return the gift.

Zhang Ning then walked home and found that his younger sister was not at home. Zhao Erniang said that he had not been picked up at Luo Mo's house, and Xu Wenjun had already picked up her.

He went straight back to his bedroom, pulled a chair and sat down.

The road was bumpy, and when I got back, I stood at the military posture at the main gate of the Imperial City for more than an hour, I was really tired.

But his thinking is quite active and he has too many things to worry about.

Zhao Erniang made tea and said a few words about the situation at home after he left. But seeing Zhang Ning stammering and tired again, she made a face behind her and left tactfully to leave him alone.

All things are concerned, and the clearest thing that comes to mind is the situation where I just gave the draft of the memorial to Wang Zhen.

He made a decision after two times in his mind. This was actually quite serious. It was not because Zhang Ning made a hasty decision. He knew in his heart that no matter how long he weighed the pros and cons, he would still do that in the end.

Wang Zhen is Wang Gou'er's confidant. Collusion with Wang Zhen is actually an alliance with Wang Gou'er. Collusion between inside and outside will definitely be serious. The original manuscript of the memorial was also given to Wang Gou'er. In short, Zhang Ning was involved and trapped.

He didn't regret doing this. If he had left Beijing, he would have had many concerns, but now he is unwilling to stay out of it.

Regardless of whether he has the ability or not, try it first; now Wang Gou'er is in a crisis, and he will definitely be worried if Emperor Yongle is poisoned. At this time, Zhang Ning's support for him is an investment, helping him overcome difficulties, and it is a timely help. Zhang Ning can have more energy in the future.

An ethereal voice sounded softly and said: Are you blamed me for dragging you down?

He reached into his clothes and took out the foot chain to see that the sun was just in front of the window. It could actually emit five colors of brilliance under the sun, which was very beautiful.

After a closer look, Zhang Ning saw that there were many multi-faceted gems inlaid between the gold chains, so they could be colorful when shining by the sun.

This chain must be a valuable thing and is of great value.

Zhang Ning looked at it while thinking about how it looked on his ankle. After a while, he turned around and searched in the box, and took out a small diamond-shaped red silk bag from a locked box, which was an auspicious talisman.

He thought for a moment and felt that wearing this auspicious talisman on that chain was both convenient for preservation and like a necklace.

Sometimes he does do boring things when he is alone, and now that's it.

He found a small knife to peel melons and fruits, made a hole in the silk bag, and tamped the chain and put it on.

Unexpectedly, just after it was done, I suddenly heard a creaking sound of lifting the door. He hurriedly put the thing in his arms. Unfortunately, it was a little late and was seen by Luo Mo Niang.

Luo Mo Niang suddenly looked angry and walked over and reached out and said, "Take it out."

Zhang Ning immediately remembered the scene before on the horse's back. She angrily snatched Zhang Xiaomei's strapless breasts and teared them hard. She had to use all her strength to eat, and then threw them away like garbage.

How could Zhang Ning be willing to hand over this matter when he thought about it?

He glared and said: What's the point of being here? I'll ruin it again?Why do you destroy good things? Is it okay to spend money?

Zhang Xiaomei also saw Zhang Ning's red silk bag behind her. Of course she understood who it was. Her face suddenly turned red and she looked down at her feet.Xu Wenjun looked at him with sympathy.

Luo Moniang said angrily: Who gave you the gift? Are you interacting with some women outside when you go out?Take it out for me.

Zhang Ning lowered his face and said: If it’s wrong, who has the final say in this family?Can't even understand the superiority of a couple?

I haven't passed the door yet, you are just like that!Luo Mo Niang was so sad that she just got along with her!After saying that, he turned around and left.

The little girl looked back and hurriedly ran up and grabbed Zhang Ning's hand with the soft soft gutter: Brother, why don't you explain to her?It depends on the popularity, so hurry up and catch it back!

After she reminded Zhang Ning, she remembered that there were not only chains but also silk bags. Didn’t the silk bags be given by her younger sister?

This matter can be explained completely.

After thinking about it, she hurriedly chased her out. As soon as she walked out to the eaves, she saw Luo Mo Niang being slow and still at the entrance of the cave. She happened to look back and looked at her, but she accidentally looked at Zhang Ning, so she turned her head and walked out quickly.

Zhang Ning hurriedly lifted the hem of his official robe and ran a few steps, chased him to the Yuedong Gate and shouted: Stop for me!

Luo Moniang really stopped and turned around and said angrily: You are still so fierce, is it because I did something wrong?

The thing is given by my little sister, if you don’t believe it, ask her.Zhang Ning said.

Luo Moniang was stunned: What did she do for you that thing?Don’t you see each other every day in Beijing?

Zhang Ning said: Didn’t I encounter disaster after participating in the provincial examination two years ago?The talisman I asked for, I have been using it to ensure safety.I’m so anxious that I just left you with great difficulty, but I will definitely tear it apart. Isn’t my peace gone?

Luo Mo Niang is so big, after all, she is a woman, so she can coax her with a few words. She calmed down and said angrily: You are so anxious!

She paused and said: You are really... thinking of your little sister. Have you ever thought of me for a few months when you go out?

When Zhang Ning saw that she was fine, he said: Let’s talk about it when he goes back to the yard. Let people see that we are like children, and we are not afraid of laughing at them.

Luo Moniang followed, entered the inner courtyard and hugged his arm: Is he asking you, do you think of me?

Thinking... Zhang Ning said helplessly, I will marry you sooner or later. It’s all decided, why are you making trouble?

Luo Moniang said dissatisfiedly: Are you tired of others now?Then why do you want to marry me?

Zhang Ning rubbed his temples and said with a headache: Where are you tired of you?I have always thought that my mother is a very good woman and has already saluted Lord Yang. Could it be that we will go back on our word if we have nothing to do?

Because of this?Luo Mo Niang always felt unsatisfied, but when she thought about it, she said sadly, "You are right, it seems like this is the case when getting married."

Zhang Ning said patiently: Just figure it out. In ancient times, men farmed and women weaved, but now men are the heroes outside and women are the heroes inside. Everyone is like this. Just do their own responsibilities and live a good life.You have also changed your temper and are so jealous. Look at the bureaucrats and wealthy businessmen, how many people don’t have concubines?Our family wants to be independent and special, and I am not from the Qingliu school either.

I have never allowed you to take a concubine!Luo Mo Niang felt like she was fooled.

Zhang Ning whispered: People live with us. Like our family, they go in and out of the bedroom and make beds and fold quilts. Why are you a human being if you are not a concubine?My concubine won’t take your position, so why are you having fun?

All right.Luo Mo Niang said, I will take a step back, but this kind of thing must be approved by my consent in the future. I think people are okay, you can do it.

Do this.Zhang Ning said casually.
