Kita Shoji.
Lu Ning was sitting in the main hall, looking at Wei Shuxian's confession file, which contained more confessions than Wenren Tang and Cao Dachun.
All the crimes Qin Zhong has committed in his life are too numerous to list.
After reading, he looked up at Pei Tianbei and Sheng Xuan, and saw that they were a little tired, as they had been interrogating all night long.
"Go and rest for a day."
"It's my lord."
The two nodded and left the main hall.
Lu Ning sorted out the confession files, then looked at Gu Wushuang and others, and finally his eyes fell on Song Ge and said: "Beizhengsi is still short of one thousand households. When will it be in place?"
Song Ge bowed and said, "Sir, the assessment is in progress. It's almost time."
Lu Ning nodded, looked at Sui Yun and said, "How is your injury healed?"
Sui Yun bowed respectfully and said, "Sir, not only are you completely healed, but your cultivation has also reached the fourth level of perfection."
"Very good, you take the people and continue to monitor the Qin Mansion." Lu Ning said.
Sui Yun said in surprise: "Sir, based on Wei Shuxian's confession file, we can completely raid the Qin Mansion!"
Lu Ning said: "Don't you remember what I said before?"
Sui Yun looked stunned. This time he was different from last time. Last time he didn't recognize Lu Ning in his heart.
This time he thought he could report it directly to Sir Sizheng, who would ask His Majesty for instructions and go directly to the Qin Mansion to get the person.
"My lord, my subordinates will go now." Sui Yun respectfully accepted the order.
Lu Ning watched Sui Yun turn around and leave the main hall, and immediately sent a message: "Sui Yun, listen carefully, there is a traitor from the Qin Mansion in the Demon Suppression Department, and I will release some news later, which is related to the Qin Mansion. "
"You always pay attention to people coming and going from Qin Mansion, especially those who have nothing to do with Qin Mansion. After leaving Qin Mansion, you will be captured by me immediately."
Sui Yun, who dared to walk out of the main hall, looked slightly stunned. He looked back at Lu Ning and saw Lu Ning nodding to him.
Sui Yun also nodded and strode away.
"Wushuang, take your people and quietly disperse the matter of Wei Shuxian's arrest in the Demon Suppressing Division."
Lu Ning looked at Gu Wushuang and said.
Gu Wushuang said with a surprised look on his face: "Sir, didn't Sir Sizheng ask you to keep it secret?"
Lu Ning frowned and said, "You do as I say. Remember, just say that Wei Shuxian was arrested. Don't mention anything else. After people were sent out, you deliberately showed up to scold me, saying that you were from the Demon Suppressing Division." Don’t talk nonsense about confidential matters.”
Gu Wushuang blinked his eyes and immediately accepted the order: "Yes, I will do it immediately."
Lu Ning stood up, looked at He Dong and Song Ge and said, "You two will accompany me to escort Wei Shuxian to Tianlao."
"It's my lord." The two of them saluted.
Lu Ning shouted again: "Liu Xun."
"Sir, my subordinate is here."
"Go and buy ten kilograms of braised donkey meat, two kilograms of cooked beef, and two large altars of burning knives. Wait for me at the gate of Tianlao."
"It's my lord."
Liu Xun took the order and went.
…
The door of the prison.
When Lu Ning arrived with his people, Liu Xun had already bought things and was waiting.
Song Ge asked others to help him hold it, and everyone walked towards the prison together.
The third floor of the prison.
After imprisoning Wei Shuxian, Lu Ning asked He Dong, Song Ge and others to return to Beizhengsi.
He walked around the prison area, glanced at Wen Rentang and Cao Dachun, and then walked towards the prison cell.
"Hey! It's Xiao Lu!"
When Mr. Mo saw it was Lu Ning, he couldn't help but laugh.
Lu Ning walked into the squad room and said with a smile: "Mr. Mo, I have sent you another third-grade prisoner, who will be detained in Cell No. 35."
Mr. Mo nodded with a smile and poured a bowl of wine for Lu Ning: "Drink a bowl with me."
Lu Ning was not polite. He held the wine bowl to pay tribute to Mo Lao and started drinking.
Mr. Mo tore a piece of donkey meat and gave it to Lu Ning: "Eat more and you will be strong."
Lu Ning caught it with a smile.
Just listen to Mr. Mo continue: "I heard there's going to be a fight outside?"
The smile on Lu Ning's face faded: "What is Mr. Mo referring to?"
Mr. Mo said: "What else can you do? King Yongshan, do you want to call Beijing and Zhou?"
Lu Ning frowned and said, "No, Mr. Mo must have listened to what Cao Dachun said."
Mo Lao smiled: "If he doesn't say it, it will be a matter of time. King Yongshan is not willing to be mediocre... Hehe, but it has nothing to do with our Tianlao."
"Whoever becomes an emperor will never be able to get into the prison."
Lu Ning listened and nodded with a smile.
moment.
Lu Ning said goodbye to Mr. Mo, took one of the bottles of wine, and headed to the fourth floor of the Tianlao.
Mr. Mo stared at his back with a smile and said nothing.
On the fourth floor of the Heavenly Prison.
Chen Tianqi was sitting alone, studying chess, which he found quite interesting.
Seeing Lu Ning carrying a jar of wine, two kilograms of cooked beef and peanuts, he smiled and said: "Xiao Lu, you are here. Come on, play two games of chess with me."
"Mr. Chen, don't worry!"
Lu Ning smiled, poured two bowls of wine, tore the cooked beef into small pieces, put peanuts on the plate, and then sat down opposite Chen Tianqi.
"Mr. Chen, first drink a bowl of wine to quench your thirst."
"Hahaha……!"
Chen Tianqi nodded with a smile, picked up the wine bowl and touched it with Lu Ning. After drinking the bowl happily, he grabbed a handful of peanuts and threw them into his mouth to chew: "This chess is interesting, come on...!"
Then, Lu Ning played two games of chess with Chen Tianqi.
Chen Tianqi was a little speechless. He had been studying it for almost half a month, just waiting to beat Lu Ning.
Unexpectedly, he lost two games in a row.
"this……!"
"Haha, Mr. Chen, this is chess. Although there are not many chess pieces, the moves can be ever-changing. There is no absolute fixed routine. It is just like marching and fighting. The soldiers are not tired of deceit. Once people figure out the way, it is easy to lose the battle. "
"So, you only need to learn the ability to take one step and see three steps. If you look too far, you will waste your brain and may not go in the direction you want."
Lu Ning said with a smile.
Chen Tianqi stared at Lu Ning in astonishment, then shook his head and smiled: "You are such a freak!"
Lu Ning smiled and said, "Another round?"
Chen Tianqi looked unwilling to admit defeat: "One more game."
In this game, Chen Tianqi followed Lu Ning's instructions and counted three moves. Although he still lost, he only lost three moves, which was a huge improvement.
After Lu Ning poured a bowl of wine for Chen Tianqi, he asked, "Mr. Chen, do you know much about Mr. Mo on the third floor?"
Chen Tianqi took a sip from the wine bowl and said, "Why do you ask that?"
Lu Ning grinned and said, "I just want to know more about Mr. Mo."
Chen Tianqi didn't care at all. He put down the wine bowl, pinched a piece of cooked beef, and said while eating: "Old Mo, his name is Mo Jiu. He came to Tianlao twenty years after me."
"When he came to Tianlao, his cultivation level seemed to be at the seventh level... I can't remember clearly, it seemed to be at the seventh level."
"As for who is outside? Is there anyone at home? Why do you want to be a jailer in Tianlao?"
"These questions are not related to a certain extent. Prison guards will not ask each other."
"Not long after he came to Tianlao, I was transferred to the second floor and barely spoke to him."
Having said this, Chen Tianqi paused, took another sip of wine and continued:
"From the beginning of Emperor Xingwu to the present, there have been many incidents of demons plundering prisons."
"Mo Jiu was able to escape disaster every time. I was very curious, so I casually glanced at his cultivation level and found that it was not very thorough, and he vaguely looked like a fifth-grade person."
"I was curious, so I asked him, so I got to know him, but Mo Jiu didn't tell me."
"I didn't care at all at that time. He hid it because he didn't want others to know. Since then, I haven't asked him again when I saw him."
"But later, I saw clearly his cultivation level. It may be that the level of breath-containing technique he practiced was too low and he couldn't control his breath."
"Maybe after reaching the third level, he didn't care anymore and didn't hide it deliberately, so it was clear that he was a third level."
Chen Tianqi said, eating a piece of cooked beef, and continued: "Actually, I don't know much about him. I don't know him very well, and I can't even have a relationship with him."
"Everyone goes his own way and doesn't interfere with each other."
Hearing this, Lu Ning smiled and nodded.
Chen Tianqi glanced at Lu Ning and said, "As for me, my name is Chen Tianqi. It's in the past. There's nothing in the past. It's been so long that some of the memories have faded."
"I just remember that after my old mother was killed by robbers, I buried her and fled to Beijing and Zhou alone. I happened to encounter Tianlao recruiting jailers."
"I had food, drink, and safety, so I became a jailer."
"When I secretly learned from the sky prison and succeeded, when I went out to seek revenge, I found that my enemy was already dead."
"At that time, I suddenly understood that no matter who they are, good or evil, no one can escape the cycle of time in the end."
"How can I take revenge with my own hands? Old Man Sui has helped me take revenge."
"So, I understand, as long as you live long, all sinners and enemies will eventually die in front of you and turn into a small pile of dirt."
After saying that, he gestured in front of Lu Ning: "It's just a mound of this size."
“In another ten years, even the small mounds may be leveled.”
"One hundred years after our death, any traces of our lives will disappear from this world."
"It's like we've never been in this world."
Lu Ning was stunned for a long time by what Chen Tianqi said, and suddenly felt a sense of sadness in her heart.
Yes, maybe there are still traces of its existence on the earth now, but in a hundred years, will there still be traces of it?
Live forever!
At this moment, a seed of immortality quietly sprouted in Lu Ning's heart.
There is martial arts in the world, but what's the use of being invincible? Why not seek immortality by the way?
Immortality is true invincibility!
"Listen to what the seniors have to say, and the juniors will be enlightened."
Lu Ning stood up and bowed deeply.
Although I had thoughts of immortality before, they were not so strong.
From now on, his direction is clear.
…
March twenty-three.
Experience: 43.83 million points.
Lu Ning glanced at the catalog and got up to wash up.
During breakfast, the eldest brother was at home.
Lu Ning asked about the Confucius Institute, and Lu Xiu smiled and said, "There are still five months left, and the autumn exam will be held."
When Lu Ning heard this, he laughed and said, "Brother, you have to work hard. My sister-in-law is still waiting for you to win the exam. You can be named on the gold list next year."
Lu Xiu smiled and glanced at Ruan Shuting.
Ruan Shuting gave him an encouraging look.
After a moment, she looked at Lu Ning and said, "It's my second brother's birthday in a few days. How do you plan to celebrate it?"
Lu Ning waved her hand and said, "Sister-in-law, please stop working. The Demon Suppressor has been very busy recently. How can I be in the mood to celebrate my birthday?"
At this moment, Kong Rong walked quickly into the main hall and whispered in Lu Ning's ear.
Hearing this, Lu Ning put down his chopsticks and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, I'm on duty!"
When the voice fell, people rushed out of the main hall.
Lu Xiu and Ruan Shuting looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
Let's take a walk, can't we take it step by step?
You have to run so fast!
Ruan Shuting said: "You belong to the eldest brother, how do you want to live?"
Lu Xiu thought about it and said, "Then call my little sister back, and let's have a meal together as a family."
Ruan Shuting nodded and said: "That's okay, my little sister hasn't been home for a long time."
…
Outside Lu Mansion.
Lu Ning glanced at Sui Yun: "Caught?"
Sui Yun glanced at Kong Rong and nodded: "One person was caught before the curfew last night, and one person was caught after the curfew ended this morning."
Lu Ning said nothing, got on his horse and said, "Go back to the Demon Division."
Half an hour later.
Lu Ning took Sui Yun and Baihu to the dark prison.
In the cells where Wenren Tang and Wei Shuxian were previously imprisoned, there was one person locked in each cell.
This man looks like an ordinary farmer. If you take a closer look, isn't he Ruan Changqing?
Lu Ning couldn't help but frown: "Why is it you?"
Ruan Changqing's eyes lit up when he saw it was Lu Ning: "Lu Er... Mr. Lu, I am your sister-in-law's cousin, why did you let someone arrest me?"
Lu Ning's eyes turned cold and he said, "Didn't I give you money and let you go home?"
Ruan Changqing said angrily: "Forget it, I was robbed and beaten as soon as I left your house."
Lu Ning flashed his eyes coldly and asked Sui Yun to take Ruan Changqing out of the cell and bring him to the interrogation room.
"Master Lu, what are you doing?"
Seeing that he was being picked up, Ruan Changqing's face turned pale with fear.
Sui Yun whispered in Lu Ning's ear: "Sir, he was caught before the curfew last night."
Lu Ning nodded, stared at Ruan Changqing and said, "Why did you go to the Qin Mansion before the curfew last night?"
Seeing that no one was beating him, Ruan Changqing said sharply: "Master Lu, I came out here to find work. If the Qin Mansion wants to serve as servants, I will take Ruan Ping to try. They wanted Ruan Ping because they thought I was too old. He was so old that he was kicked out without even having a meal."
"Then they arrested me indiscriminately."
Lu Ning flashed his cold eyes and looked at Sui Yun. Sui Yun quickly walked to the wall and grabbed the hanging barbed iron whip, which shone with a cold light.
Snapped!
Sui Yun volleyed, leaving a deep mark on the ground.
Ruan Changqing was so frightened that he peed when he saw it.
"Master Lu, Chang'an, I am your sister-in-law's cousin. We are a family. How could you let them beat me..."
"Shut up!"
Lu Ning scolded and said coldly: "I'll ask you one last time, why did you go to the Qin Mansion?"
Ruan Changqing's face flushed with anxiety, and he was about to cry: "Even if you beat me to death today, you also went to the Qin Mansion to find work, and you didn't do anything!"
"Slap him!"
"It's my lord!"
The iron whip in Sui Yun's hand suddenly rose, but before it could hit Ruan Changqing, he rolled his eyes, trembled and fainted.
"..."
Sui Yun looked back at Lu Ning speechlessly.
Lu Ning waved his hand impatiently and said: "Detain him for three days first and bring the other person over."
"It's my lord."
Sui Yun put away the iron whip and took Ruan Changqing away.
Not long after, another man with dark complexion walked into the interrogation room.
The man looked like he was in his thirties or in his forties, with a sinister look on his face.
"Sir, why do you want to arrest me?"
Lu Ning saw that the catalog didn't even flash, and it seemed that this person didn't have much sin, so he asked, "What's his name?"
"Sir, my name is Ma Liu."
"The curfew is over, why go to Qin Mansion?"
"Sir, I am a food delivery person. I deliver food to the Qin Mansion once every two days, and I always deliver food after the curfew is over."
Lu Ning frowned and looked at Sui Yun: "Is he picking out the vegetables?"
Sui Yun nodded: "Sir, there is food."
Lu Ning raised his eyebrows, "How about some food?"
Perhaps because of the second-grade "Haoran Jue", he could tell at a glance that Ma Liu was lying.
He immediately got angry and shouted: "Ma Liu, why don't you actually recruit me?"
The cold wind blew violently, causing Ma Liu's spirit to tremble, and a look of sincerity appeared on his face.
"Sir, it was Li Yifei, a member of the Demon Suppression Division, who asked me to go to the Qin Mansion to send a message, saying that Manager Wei was arrested by the Demon Suppression Division."
"Li Yifei?"
Lu Ning frowned, looked at Sui Yun and said, "Go and check quickly to see who Li Yifei is from the next hundred households."
"It's my lord." Sui Yun turned and left.
Lu Ning stood up and asked hundreds of households to put Ma Liu into a cell.
A pot of tea time.
In the main hall of Beizhengsi.
Sui Yun stepped forward quickly and said: "Sir, we found it. He is from a hundred households under Deputy Director Chen Hu."
Lu Ning frowned and immediately went to the Hall of Justice to tell Gu Fengtang about the traitor.
Gu Fengtang sent someone to call Chen Hu.
During a pot of tea time, Chen Hu strode into the Hall of Justice: "See you, Your Excellency."
"Chen Hu, is there a Baihu named Li Yifei below you?" Gu Fengtang asked.
Chen Hu thought for a moment and said, "Sir, yes."
Gu Fengtang said: "Send him over immediately."
Chen Hu didn't ask any more questions, turned around and gave orders to a thousand households, who quickly followed the order.
Not long after, the Qianhu walked into the Hall of Justice with a Baihu who was about thirty years old.
"Subordinate Li Yifei, please see Sir Sizheng and all other gentlemen."
Li Yifei lowered his head slightly, stepped forward and bowed.
Gu Fengtang said coldly: "Stand up."
Li Yifei straightened up, looked at Gu Fengtang, and quickly lowered his head.
"I'm asking you, do you know Ma Liu?"
"Ma, Ma Liu... Sir, I don't know you." Li Yifei stuttered and denied it.
Lu Ning sneered on the side and sent a message to Sui Yun outside the hall.
In a moment, Sui Yun carried Ma Liu to the Hall of Justice.
When Li Yifei saw Ma Liu, his face was as pale as paper and he collapsed in the hall.
Chen Hu didn't know that there was a traitor in the Demon Suppression Division. When he saw this scene, he was a little confused and said: "Deputy Division Lu, what is going on?"
Lu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly, looked at Chen Hu meaningfully and said, "He is Qin Zhongan's traitor in the Demon Suppression Division."
"What??"
Chen Hu looked confused and immediately looked at Gu Fengtang and said, "Sir, is this true?"
Gu Fengtang nodded: "Only the people from the Demon Suppressing Division knew about Zhou Huan's death. At that time, I issued a hush-hush order. Why did Qin Zhong know about it only in the past two days?"
Chen Hu understood, stepped forward, grabbed Li Yifei by the collar, slapped him on the face, and shouted: "Temad, did the Demon Suppressing Division treat you badly? You turned into a traitor for a treacherous old thief?"
Li Yifei's face turned pale as a sheet at first, and then he started laughing like crazy in the hall.
No matter how Chen Hu pressed him, he didn't say a word.
Lu Ning frowned and said, "Sir, please hand this person over to your subordinates."
Gu Fengtang nodded: "Look carefully and see what news he has conveyed to Qin Zhong."
"yes!"
Lu Ning nodded, turned around, looked at Sui Yun and said, "Detain him."
Sui Yun handed Ma Liu to the hundreds of households under his command, personally sealed Li Yifei's meridian qi sea, and left with the person in hand.
Lu Ning glanced at Chen Hu and strode away.
Chen Hu's face really didn't look good. After all, someone under his command was Qin Zhong's traitor, which would inevitably lead to misunderstanding.
"Sir, this...!"
"Well, you didn't join the Demon Suppression Division for only a year or two. If there are any problems for decades, you won't be able to become the deputy division chief."
"Thank you for your trust, sir."
Chen Hu sighed. Although he was a big boss, he had already considered the Demon Suppression Division as his home after decades of ups and downs.
I never thought about betraying the Demon-Suppressing Division.
A loyal heart can be learned from the sun and the moon.
He didn't expect that something like this would happen to his subordinates, which really made him depressed.
Gu Fengtang frowned and said, "How about letting you monitor Han Li?"
Chen Hu hurriedly adjusted his mood and said: "Sir, Han Li really lives in seclusion, but his son Han Xing often goes to Xianlefang to drink flower wine."
Gu Fengtang frowned and said, "His son hangs out with those young men?"
Chen Hu said: "Xu Yinglun, the son of the Marquis of Zhenbei, Zhang He, the son of Zhang Sheng, the director of the Ministry of War, sometimes fawn over Qin Cheng, the son of Qin Zhong, Rong Weichen, the son of Duke Rong, and others."
Gu Fengtang waved his hand and said, "Just keep an eye on it first."
After all, Han Xing may not know what Han Li did.
"Go ahead and ask Zuo Hongchen to come over." Gu Fengtang waved to Chen Hu.
Chen Hu responded.
Half an hour later, Zuo Hongchen arrived at the Hall of Justice.
"I've met my lord."
"What's the problem with Duke Yan?"
Zuo Hongchen frowned and said: "The Duke of Yan lives in seclusion, and the people he comes in contact with are all old Dukes. Apart from that, he rarely eats out."
"I stay up in the study until midnight every night, and then I go to rest."
"Reading a book?"
"Yes, sir. When he was reading, there were often slight coughing sounds in the study. After checking with his spiritual consciousness, it seems that there is something wrong with Duke Yan Chang."
Zuo Hongchen said.
Hearing this, Gu Fengtang's eyes flashed slightly. Above the court, Yan Chang was very energetic and energetic, and he didn't look like he was sick.
"Continue to monitor."
"It's my lord."
Zuo Hongchen bowed and left quickly.
…
Return to Kita Shoji.
Lu Ning asked Sui Yun to interrogate Ma Liu in person, while he himself studied the "Great Art of Conferring Gods" in the main hall.
Not long after, Gu Fengtang's personal Qianhu Chen Long quickly came to the main hall. After seeing the ceremony, he stepped forward to tell Lu Ning about the situation of Han Li and Yan Guogong.
"Master Lu, that's all Master Sizheng said, please pay attention." Chen Long said with a lowered eyebrow.
Lu Ning nodded: "Thank you, Chen Qianhu, go back and tell Master Sizheng, and I will take note of it."
Chen Long nodded and left.
Lu Ning stared outside the hall: "Qin Cheng, Rong Weichen, Xu Yinglun, Zhang He? Zhang He..."
at dusk.
Lu Ning put on Feiyu clothes and came to the door of Tianlao.
"Where is Commander Zhang?" He looked at a young deputy general and asked.
"It's Brother Lu. Commander Zhang is in the gate tower." The young deputy general said and led Lu Ning towards the gate tower. Not long after, he saw Zhang He.
"Hey! Mr. Lu!"
When Zhang He saw it was Lu Ning, he hurriedly sat up from the recliner with an energetic look on his face. He was even happier than meeting his biological father.
"I heard that you were transferred to the Demon Suppression Department as deputy director. Congratulations, congratulations!" Zhang He said with a flattering smile.
"The information is quite good!" Lu Ning smiled.
"Master Lu, as soon as you took office, you investigated the old eunuch Cao Dachun. This matter has been spread in the circle. How could the lower officials not hear about it?"
Zhang He smiled bitterly.
To be honest, he was happy to see Lu Ning, but not very happy at the same time.
Fortunately, Lu Ning had a good relationship with him before.
What made him unhappy was that when Lu Ning showed up, he must be checking him out.
Lu Ning nodded, and Zhang He smiled bitterly and said, "Master Lu, are you coming here now...!?"
Lu Ning said: "Don't be nervous, I'm not checking you. I am nostalgic for old friendships, and my old brothers are on my mind. Come and have tea."
Zhang He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. When he heard that Lu Ning regarded him as a brother, he immediately laughed and said, "Brother Lu, I'm going to be on duty soon. Xianlefang, drink tea and listen to music. I'll treat you."
Lu Ning smiled and said: "How can I ask you to treat me again and again? I will treat you this time."
"Brother Lu, don't be polite to me." Zhang He said and started to change clothes.
Lu Ning didn't change. The Feiyu suit was both the official and regular uniform in the Demon Suppression Division.
Can be worn anytime and anywhere.
The purpose is to let others know the identity of the wearer.
…
Xianlefang.
Lu Ning and Zhang He came together.
The old madam greeted him with a beaming eyebrow, and at the same time called the girls to come out to pick up the guests.
When they saw it was Lu Ning, the girls wanted to eat Lu Ning with their eyes when they saw who was excited.
Even if Lu Ning didn't wear the Feiyu suit, he was still handsome as hell and had a great figure. Anyway, you wouldn't suffer any loss if you took advantage of him.
Lu Ning called Qing'er and Mei'er.
Zhang He also called the two girls.
"Brother Lu, sit on the first floor."
Lu Ning smiled and led Qing'er and the two of them towards a seating area on the first floor surrounded by mountains and sea screens.
The seats are surrounded on three sides, and the exposed side can see the stage clearly. The singers and dancers can be seen clearly.
If he came with others, Zhang He would definitely not choose the first floor. This location is too expensive.
But if Lu Ning said it, it would be worth it!
After the special side dishes were served, Zhang He picked up the sapphire porcelain wine pot and poured a glass of wine for Lu Ning: "Brother Lu, here's a toast to you."
Lu Ning picked it up with a smile, bumped it lightly with Zhang He, and drank it.
In a moment, the two of them drank three glasses of wine.
Lu Ning enjoyed Qing'er's shoulder squeeze and said, "Brother Zhang should come here more often these days."
Zhang He also enjoyed the girls' massage and said with a smile: "I don't come here very often. It's too depressing to be with those young men. Only when I come here with Brother Lu, it's so relaxing and pleasant for the body and mind!"
Lu Ning pretended to be curious and said: "Brother Zhang, have you been playing with those young men recently? Are you depressed?"
Zhang He shook his head and said: "Who else could they be? Han Xing, the son of the left minister of the Ministry of War, and Xu Yinglun, the son of the right minister. These two not only love drinking, but also love playing with girls."
"Qin Cheng, Rong Weichen and other young masters don't dare to reach out to others. Even if they are lucky enough to sit and drink together, they will act based on people's faces, which is no different from serving an uncle."
Lu Ning smiled and said, "I heard that Mr. Han Li, the left minister of the Ministry of War, used to be the chief of the Ministry of War. He was very low-key and frugal. Why is his son so naughty?"
Zhang He said: "Han Xing and I have been playing together since childhood. He is a man who cannot bear hardships and cannot be taught. Master Han Li is the only son. Sometimes he talks too much. Seeing that his son is impatient, he is too lazy to talk anymore. ”
"However, Han Xing is not a playboy. He has a decent cultivation level and is very measured in his actions. He is not a brainless person."
Lu Ning smiled and nodded: "Master Han Li is a good military attache."
Zhang He also nodded in agreement and said: "Indeed, during the Battle of Yunlu, Feilongqi was the vanguard, a man with great military exploits. Otherwise, he might not have been promoted to Minister Zuo."
Lu Ning's eyes flashed: "Flying Dragon Riders are the vanguard on the road ahead?"
Such important information is not recorded in Han Li's files!
Seeing Lu Ning's surprised look, Zhang He smiled and said, "Actually, I don't know much about it. I heard it from my father."
Lu Ning nodded: "So, the relationship between Han Li and Yan Guogong is quite good."
Zhang He said with a smile: "Brother Lu, you guessed wrong. On the contrary, the relationship between Han Li and Duke Yan is not good at all."
"Every time Han Xing mentioned Duke Yan, he always cursed in a low voice."
"What did you curse?" Lu Ning asked curiously.
Zhang He coughed lightly and said, "Brother Lu, I can't say such nonsense. If it reaches the ears of Duke Yan, wouldn't I betray my brother?"
Lu Ning smiled: "Yes."
"Zhang He, when you come to Xianlefang, you don't call me Young Master?"
At this moment, a roar came.
A young man in blue excitedly ran to where Lu and Ning were drinking. He looked at Zhang He, then at Lu Ning, and asked Zhang He, "Who is he?"
"Haha, Brother Xing, you came just in time. This is the famous Lu Ning, Lord Lu!" Zhang He quickly stood up and introduced Han Xing.
When Han Xing heard this, he stared at Lu Ning in surprise, cupped his fists and saluted, "I have long heard that Deputy Secretary Lu is the most talented person in the Great Zhou Dynasty. I have never had the chance to get to know him. I am really lucky tonight. I, Han Xing, have met Mr. Lu."
Lu Ning smiled: "Stop standing, sit down."
Han Xing looked excited and sat on the floor.
Zhang He greeted, asked someone to add chopsticks and wine glasses, and also called two girls.
After Han Xing offered Lu Ning a glass of wine, he rolled his eyes at Zhang He and said, "Brother He, you know Mr. Lu, why didn't you introduce him earlier?"
Zhang He said with a smile: "Brother Lu, you are young and promising, and you have a lot of opportunities ahead of you. I only have time today. Let's have a drink and listen to music together."
"It's all about taking care of everything." Lu Ning corrected him speechlessly.
"Oh, yes, everything happens every day."
Zhang He nodded awkwardly.
The wine is half full.
Lu Ning brought the topic to the Battle of Yunlu, talked about the Flying Dragon Riders, and mentioned Duke Yan.
When Han Xing heard this, his face showed displeasure.
But the latter was Lu Ning, so he didn't want to get angry and said: "This old guy, Duke Yan, is just an ungrateful villain."
Lu Ning was talking happily, and when he heard what Han Xing said, he was curious: "Brother Han, why do you say that?"
Hearing Lu Ning call him "Brother Han", Han Xing was excited. Compared with Qin Cheng, Rong Weichen and others who were just putting on airs, Lu Ning was a really good young man.
Immediately with the help of Jiu Jiner, he said: "More than thirty years ago, Duke Yan was seriously injured. It was my father who risked his life to save him and even asked for elixir for Duke Yan. However, later, after Duke Yan recovered from his injury, he My father was squeezed out of the Dragon Riders."
"Fortunately, my father had meritorious service in the Battle of Yunlu, so he worked as a director of the military department in the court. It took more than thirty years before he had the opportunity to be promoted."
"If Duke Yan hadn't suppressed him, my father would have been the left minister of the Ministry of War."
"Brother Lu, do you think he is an ungrateful person?"
Lu Ning's eyes flashed slightly. This kind of thing was not recorded in the files?
He immediately smiled and said, "Is there any misunderstanding here?"
Han Xing shook his head and said: "I don't know. Anyway, my father was very angry when he mentioned the Duke of Yan. He said that he was from Longwuyuan, had great literary and military skills, and had great military exploits. He had been in charge of the fifth rank in the court for thirty years, and he felt very sad. uncomfortable."
Lu Ning nodded: "This is a secret. If you don't tell me today, I really don't know Duke Yan."
Hearing this, Han Xing suddenly became worried. After all, Lu Ning was one of the deputy directors of the Demon Suppression Department. If he investigated Duke Yan for this, wouldn't it be very detrimental to his father?
"Brother Lu, this matter...!" Han Xing hesitated.
"Don't worry, the wine talk is limited to the wine table. Get out of here. Brother Han, you haven't said it, and I haven't heard it either." Lu Ning couldn't understand Han Xing's worry, and immediately picked up the wine glass with a smile.
"Yes, yes, let's talk over wine." Han Xing felt relieved and felt that drinking with Lu Ning was really not depressing.
Put down the glass.
Lu Ning put the dish into his mouth and asked, "Your father asked Duke Yan for a fairy medicine. Where did he ask for it? What kind of fairy medicine was it?"
