Where is the girl's house?" the scholar couldn't resist the girl, so he had to compromise, "But he was captured by the bandits and separated from his family?

Ning Jing looked lonely, sighed, and said, "Sir, there's no need. I don't have a home. ”

"How so?" said the scholar, "Don't worry, girl, if there is any difficulty, Xiaosheng will help you!"

"I didn't lie to you, sir. Ning Jing raised his head and looked at the scholar, "Ning Jing really doesn't have a home, when I was very young, I was alone." ”

"How is this good?" the scholar sighed, at a loss.

"Sir, just let Ning Jing follow Mr., okay?" Ning Jing stared at the scholar directly, "Ning Jing is willing to saddle the horse for Mr. and serve Mr.!" In the future, I will be the maid by Mr.'s side and take care of Mr.'s daily life. Didn't Mr. say that he was going to Beijing to take the exam? There will definitely be dangers along the way, and Ning Jing can also work hard, and he can also protect Mr.!"

"I can't help it, I can't help it!" The scholar's face finally calmed down, and then turned red again, "Absolutely not!"

"Why not?" Ning Jing was pitiful, "Could it be that Mr. hates Ning Jing and doesn't want me to follow Mr. around?" Also, Ning Jing has never read a book and doesn't understand anything. Mr. said before that only women and villains are difficult to raise, and he must look down on me from the bottom of his heart, so he is unwilling to take Ning Jing in. I'm also a person that no one wants, so it's better to die in this deep mountain and old forest!"

"Girl, why bother!" the scholar panicked, in a dilemma, "The girl doesn't understand, this man and woman ......"

"What's wrong with men and women?" Ning Jing asked, "Ning Jing just wants to follow Mr. and be a servant girl before and after the saddle, and she doesn't plan anything." Mr. will marry a wife and have children in the future, Ning Jing will never fight or rob, and only serve Mr. with peace of mind. Sir, just leave Ning Jing, otherwise I won't survive!"

"This ......" The scholar thought for a long time, but finally sighed and said helplessly, "Okay then." ”

"Thank you, sir!" Ning Jing cheered.

The next day, the scholar took the girl on the road together.

The scholar went to Beijing to take the exam, and finally arrived in the capital in September of that year.

In October, the entrance examination began, and the scholar won the list in one fell swoop and became the new champion of that year.

Scholar high school, spring breeze proud. King Chen Guojun personally promoted the scholar to the Hanlin Academy, and after another two years, the scholar was promoted to the general judge of the capital, and he was the deputy of the Kyoto prefect, and the scenery was the same for a while.

The scholar was appointed as a general judge in Kyoto, but at the age of twenty-three, he was the youngest five-rank official in the history of Chen Guo. In just two years, the scholar was promoted to the third grade, from the Zhengbapinhanlin Academy to the Zhengwupinjing Tongju, which made those who were with him the envy of the same year.

The scholar was sentenced to Kyoto for one year, and he was transferred out of the capital at his own request. The old king of Chen State ordered him to be the number one in the local state capital, and then promoted to the first grade, which was to know the state for the fourth grade.

The scholar served in the local area for three years, and at the age of twenty-seven, he was retransferred back to the capital by the old king and served as a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. In the same year, the scholar went to the imperial court and presented the "Ten Treatises on Mei Qin", bluntly talking about the shortcomings of Chen Guoda's politics, and the pen was strong and strong, and the power was through the back of the paper, pointing out the shortcomings of Chen Guo's governance over the years, and proposing a highly operable and innovative method.

After reading the scholar's recital, the old king of Chen Guo was covered in cold sweat.

"Lone for his children and grandchildren to find a good look!" The old king sighed after reading the recital, "If Xu Jingting was born ten years early, the lone king will also follow the "Ten Treatises on Mei Qin", make drastic moves, clean up and down the politics of my Chen country, and return a great river and mountain to the people of my Chen country!"

It's a pity that he is old, and when it comes to innovation, the old king has more than enough heart and not enough strength.

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

What the scholar never expected was that the old king's appreciation of him had also become a poison that killed him.

Reform and innovation will inevitably get rid of the minions of the old forces and then prop up the new authority. But the interests of the big clan in the capital are entangled, how can the scholar say that he can shake it?

The old king did not survive that winter.

As soon as the old monarch died, those families who had been dormant for a long time and had long been eyeing scholars took action against him.

To add insult to injury, the new king ascended the throne, in order to gain the support of those big families, he changed his attitude towards scholars, and famously said that this person was a fool to confuse the public, in a vain attempt to shake the Chen Dynasty in order to achieve his ulterior motives.

The identity of the scholar's ancestor for eight generations has been cleaned up.

But it really made those people of the family come up with clues.

It turned out that the scholar had three generations of ancestors, and he turned out to be from the Qi country!

At this time, the scholar was directly grabbed by the pigtails, and those big families framed and spread rumors, claiming that the scholar was the enemy of the Chen State, after the Qi State. What he is doing now has only one purpose, that is, to create chaos within the Chen State, so that he can cooperate with those Qi people who have been eyeing the Chen State and eliminate the Chen State in one fell swoop!

The scholar was imprisoned.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the deliberate listing of these trumped-up charges on scholars by those big families, so as to take the opportunity to eradicate this opponent who is a great threat to them.

The scholar was imprisoned, and the mansion was immediately seized.

The official in charge of investigating the scholar's mansion found 10,000 taels of gold in the scholar's study, and the charge of embezzlement was immediately detained on the scholar's head.

But all this happened, and the scholar couldn't even argue with it.

Just because he has been imprisoned in Kyoto, let alone fighting back, it is already good if he can not be poisoned by a glass of poisoned wine in the prison.

Those political enemies did not give the scholars a chance.

The scholar was imprisoned for only three days, and he was sent to prison by the new king's personal eunuch.

"There is an order from the king, the crime of disobeying Xu Jingting, forming a party for personal gain, corruption, and causing chaos to the dynasty, the crime is extremely heinous!" The eunuch proudly read the holy decree in the prison, and glanced at the scribe who was forcibly pressed to the ground by the jailer to listen to the decree, "Order the criminal department, at noon tomorrow, at noon, the criminal disobedient Xu Jingting will be beheaded and displayed to the public!" ”

The scholar just sneered.

"Still not answered?!" the jailer shouted viciously when he saw him sneering and kicked the scholar on top of him, knocking him to the ground.

The scholar lay in a damp and gloomy cell in the dungeon.

Maybe it's going to be beheaded tomorrow, but tonight is less of the pain of flesh and skin.

In prison, the scholar recounted his experiences over the past 27 years.

Although it is not magnificent, it can be called ups and downs.

The scholar thought to himself, it didn't matter if he died, and he didn't have anyone to worry about. The only thing that worries him is the servant girl who has been suffering by his side.

If I die right now, will she be implicated?

The scholar frowned.

And it was at this time that Ning Jing appeared in front of his eyes.

The girl is still the same as she was back then, as if the years have never left a trace on her.

Ning Jing was dressed in plain clothes, with green silk curled up, looking at the tortured imhuman man outside the cell, biting her lip tightly, and her eyes were full of light.

"Jing'er, why are you here?" the scholar was surprised when he noticed the girl's figure.

Ning Jing only looked at the embarrassed man and asked him, "Sir, this Chen Guo is in the world, can it be as you wish?"

"Hehe, Jing'er, it's only one step away. The scholar said, shaking his head and sighing, "I have reached the rank of Hanlin Bachelor, and in a few more years, I will be able to enter the cabinet." As soon as I was in the cabinet, I had the power to change the country. ”

"Is it worth it?" Ning Jing asked him, "Mr. is now in this field, what is said that the seven-foot body has been promised to the country, but this country, is it worth it for Mr. to do this?"

"Hehe, Jing'er, this is probably the ideal of Confucianism in the world. The scholar said, "The sage has a saying, and the scholar should establish his heart for heaven and earth, establish his life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations." ”

"Sir, what a fool. Ning Jing said, "Jing'er only knows that if you want to level the world, you should first join the family." Mr. doesn't even have his own home, how can he calm the world?"

The scholar was stunned, his expression became complicated, he looked at Ning Jing, sighed lightly, and said, "This is probably what I have been doing in my life." Jing'er, you are strong in martial arts, let's go, leave me alone. I think if there is an afterlife, I don't want to be this scholar. ”

Ning Jing looked at the man he loved.

The mountains have trees and branches, and the heart is pleasing to the king.

He has always been like this, his seven-foot body has promised the country, and it is difficult to promise Qing.

"It's useless, it's a scholar!" Xu Jingting let out a muddy sigh, clearly only twenty-seven years old, in his youth, but his voice was full of vicissitudes.

Ning Jing looked at the man who was full of sorrow, maybe only she knew how much that man had paid for the country.

But in the end, he still lost to the conflict of interests.

When the interests of the family are above the country, where are there any people with lofty ideals?

"Sir, don't be in the afterlife. Ning Jing cried and looked at the man he loved, choked up and said to him, "Jing'er will take you away, okay?" The sage said that if there is a way in the world, there will be a way, and if there is no way, it will be hidden. Now that Chen Guo has no way, let's leave here and live in seclusion in the mountains from now on, is it okay? Mr. is still young, and he will marry a wife and have children in the future, otherwise how will he explain to his parents under Jiuquan?"

"Jing'er, no!" Xu Jingting was shocked, "I know you are strong in martial arts, but this is a prison after all! Don't do stupid things!"

"Sir, as long as you say something I am willing, I will do it. Ning Jing cried and said, "As long as Mr. is willing, even if it is Biluo Yellow Spring, Jing'er can take Mr. there." ”

"Silly mirror, leave me alone, let's go. Xu Jingting shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"If the gentleman doesn't go, neither will the mirror. Ning Jing grabbed the iron gate of the cell and looked at him, "Mr. is determined to die, so Jing'er and Mr. go to Huangquan together." Mr. Left and Right are also used to being served by Jing'er, and he is just a companion on Huangquan Road, and Mr. will not feel lonely. ”

"Why are you bothered?" Xu Jingting closed his eyes, his fingers trembling.

"Sir, my life was saved by Sir, and my people are Sir's. Ning Jing said, "I only ask Mr., is it okay to go with Jing'er?"

"Good. After a long time, Xu Jingting finally opened his eyes, looked back at Ning Jing's gaze, and said to her, "Just like back then, we fled for our lives together." ”

Ning Jing burst into tears and smiled, blew a cute snot bubble, remembering the past of the year, happy, "It's just that Mr., this time I will be the mirror to carry you." ”

"It's all the same. Xu Jingting said with a smile.

Why distinguish between them?

Fate has long entangled them together.

Everyone
