Zhao Jia and Cao Xiong hurriedly got up and came outside the house.

But when they came here, Ning Xiaofan had long since disappeared.

Zhao Jia frowned slightly, thoughtful.

Cao Xiong hurriedly looked at Zhao Jia and said, "Childe, is this Ning Xiaofan really a bandit from the Yunfeng Mountain Range?"

Zhao Jia said: "This man is very talented in military affairs, and he is scheming. ”

When Cao Xiong heard this, he was even more puzzled, and said, "A bandit den, can show military talent?"

Zhao Jiadao: "As far as I know, this Ning Xiaofan has only appeared in the Yunfeng Mountain Range for less than two months, but in these two months, he has become the owner of a small cottage, and he has defeated the overlord of the Yunfeng Mountain Range twice with fewer victories until it is eliminated, and then he has defeated the alliance of the other three cottages in the Yunfeng Mountain Range with a few victories, and more importantly, he actually implemented the Yulu system against the members of the cottage in the bandit den in the Yunfeng Mountain Range. ”

"Huh?"

When Cao Xiong heard this, he was immediately surprised and said, "Could it be that he actually gave his subordinates military salaries?"

"Not bad. Zhao Jia said.

Cao Xiong said: "It's terrible, this is really terrible, a cottage leader has such courage, this clearly has great ambitions." ”

Zhao Jia said: "This Ning Xiaofan must not be underestimated, and this person must not be treated as an ordinary mountain bandit, if in the near future, those mountain bandits in the Yunfeng Mountain Range are really all in his pocket, it will definitely be very terrifying." ”

Cao Xiong nodded and said: "Yes, there are more than seven or eight thousand bandits in this Yunfeng Mountain Range, even if there are five thousand of these people who become his subordinates, it is a terrible force, and according to what Gongzi said just now, this Ning Xiaofan is scheming, extremely good at winning more with less, such a person, submit to our Song Kingdom, Song and Yuan wars, we have a great chance of winning, but if he helps Yuan Guo......"

Cao Xiong's words were not finished, but Zhao Jia knew it very well in his heart.

When the first king of the Song Kingdom died, the most satisfied of his two sons was actually Zhao Jia, but Zhao Jia was young, and he was only eleven or twelve years old at the time, so he chose the eldest son to succeed the king of Song.

In terms of intelligence and intelligence, Zhao Jia is not inferior to his elder brother at all, and it is precisely because of this that Zhao Jia has always been thinking about the throne of their Song Kingdom, and his brother is not stupid, and he also knows the thoughts of this younger brother, so he has always been very alienated from him, and this Song and Yuan War arranged him to the border.

Zhao Jia knew his brother's intentions, but since he was a citizen of the Song Kingdom, he had to obey the orders of the King of Song, and what was good for Zhao Jia was that this Linyang was too protective of Cao Xiong, and he was originally his person, so after coming to Linyang City, Zhao Jia definitely used this Song and Yuan war to do something.

When he and Cao Xiong analyzed the advantages of the Song and Yuan sides, they took a fancy to the Yunfeng Mountain Range, because once the Yunfeng Mountain Range was obtained, then they could attack the rear of the Yuan State, which was of great benefit to the Song and Yuan Wars, even if they could not defeat the Yuan army because of this, but at least they could contain the Yuan State in terms of geographical advantage.

There is a gap in the national strength of the Song and Yuan countries, and the Yuan State is much stronger than the Song State, so as long as it can withstand the attack of the Yuan State, this is to a certain extent, in fact, it has already been won.

Zhao Jia is very sure that Ning Xiaofan is the talent he needs the most, this kind of person is not only resourceful but also extraordinary, if it is for others to get it, it will definitely be the first loss in the world.

If this person lets Zhao Jia get it, then a big thing can be done.

"No matter what method you use, you must make Ning Xiaofan submit to me" Zhao Jia gritted his teeth.

Cao Xiong said worriedly: "I'm afraid it's not easy." ”

Of course, Zhao Jia also knew in his heart that it was not easy.

He suddenly thought of the previous conversation between Cao Xiong and Ning Xiaofan, and it was obvious that there seemed to be something going on between the two of them.

Zhao Jia immediately looked at Cao Xiong.

"Cao Taishou, I listened to the conversation between you and Ning Xiaofan just now, it seems that he asked you something? ”

Cao Xiong shouldn't have said it, although he is Zhao Jia's person, but if he can have a good relationship with someone like Ning Xiaofan, no matter whether Zhao Jia can succeed in the future, his Linyang Cao family will not fall.

But now that Zhao Jia has asked, he can't help but say it.

"The marriage between the royal family of the Great Xia Empire and the Yuan Kingdom, Gongzi still remembers it. ”

Zhao Jia said: "Of course I know this, the reason why the Yuan State started a war against the Song State was to come under this pretext at the beginning, but later my brother Wang wrote to the emperor, and the emperor wanted to marry Princess Xia Jinxi again, but the Yuan State no longer accepted it, and the Yuan State obviously wanted to be independent of the Great Xia Empire, so there was the current Song and Yuan War, speaking of which, the Song and Yuan War was also caused by this Xia Jinxi. ”

Cao Xiong said: "This Princess Xia Jinxi was personally sent to the imperial city by me. ”

"What?" When Zhao Jia heard Cao Xiong's words, he immediately frowned, looked at Cao Xiong coldly, and said, "Why don't I know about this?"

Cao Xiong hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, and said: "Childe, when the Yen Kingdom comes to attack, my Linyang City will fight hard, but the Yuan Kingdom Bingfeng is definitely not something that my Linyang City can resist, even I personally went into battle, and I was defeated, but at that time, it was also when Ning Xiaofan came to Linyang City. ”

"Could it be that Ning Xiaofan came with Xia Jinxi?"

"Exactly" Cao Xiong said: "Ning Xiaofan came here with Xia Jinxi, and if I wanted to tell Xia Jinxi to send him back to the Imperial City, it was impossible for me to agree, after all, the fierce enemy was right in front of me, how could I leave Linyang City after this most critical point?" But what I never expected was that Ning Xiaofan killed the enemy general in the blink of an eye, making the Yuan State retreat in a hurry, and it was exactly like this, although the Yuan State had attacked several cities on the border, but since then, only the attack on Linyang City was very small, and even if there were, it was only a small force of harassment. ”

Zhao Jia said: "Because Ning Xiaofan helped you retreat the enemy soldiers, you agreed to him and personally sent Xia Jinxi back to the imperial city, right?"

Cao Xiong nodded and said, "Not bad." ”

Zhao Jia said: "In this way, our Daxia princess still has some feelings for this green forest hero. ”

Cao Xiong said: "It can be seen that Xia Jinxi must have affection for Ning Xiaofan, but I don't know what the reason is, Ning Xiaofan didn't go in person, but entrusted me to go." ”

Zhao Jia frowned and said: "Since Xia Jinxi has fallen into your hands, why don't you immediately detain Xia Jinxi and then use it to threaten Ning Xiaofan, whether he is willing or not, as long as he can do things for us, it is excellent." ”

Cao Xiong said: "Childe, you must not have this kind of thought. ”

Zhao Jia said, "Why not?"

Cao Xiong said: "This Ning Xiaofan's martial arts cultivation is really not low, the guard Ding Kui next to me, Gongzi should know, and my own cultivation, Gongzi should also be clear, but Ding Kui and I are not Ning Xiaofan's opponents, and according to my estimates, even if the two of us join forces, I am afraid it will be difficult to defeat him." ”

When Zhao Jia heard this, he was immediately surprised.

Whether it is Cao Xiong or Ding Kui's skills, he is very clear.

Cao Xiong is known as the number one master in Linyang City, while Ding Kui is second only to Cao Xiong in Linyang City.

You must know that these two people are relatively powerful masters even in the entire Song Kingdom, but Cao Xiong said such things, which is enough to prove that Ning Xiaofan's strength is not bad.

Zhao Jia said: "I didn't expect him to have such a cultivation at such a young age, which is rare in the world." ”

Cao Xiong nodded and said, "Yes, I guess this Ning Xiaofan must be a disciple of a certain martial arts great master, unless it is those ethereal dance masters, I am afraid it will be difficult to teach a master like Ning Xiaofan." ”

Zhao Jia nodded, it was obvious that he agreed with what Cao Xiong said.

It is precisely because of this, therefore, Zhao Jia is even more determined to draw Ning Xiaofan to his side.

Meanwhile.

After Ning Xiaofan left the Cao family, he went to the so-called Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.

Although Ning Xiaofan didn't know the location of the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce, the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce was extremely famous, so when Ning Xiaofan inquired casually, he found it.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that when he first came here, there were a lot of officials here who surrounded the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.

What's more, there are still sounds of fighting upstairs at the moment.

When Ning Xiaofan saw this, he was worried, knowing that his master, Jin Chanzi, had come to this Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.

"Brother Guan, I don't know what's going on here?" Ning Xiaofan walked next to an official errand and asked.

The official glanced at Ning Xiaofan and said, "There are enemy spies buying contraband here, huh? Why am I telling you this? Hurry up and go away, or I will arrest you together." ”

When Ning Xiaofan heard the official's words, he immediately frowned.

Could it be that the materials used to make black fire medicine are all forbidden?

Although Jin Chanzi is also a martial arts cultivator, the Golden Cicada Martial Arts cultivation in this world is relatively weak, although it is not terrible to encounter an official errand, but if there is a martial arts cultivator, then the situation is different.

Ning Xiaofan immediately walked towards the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.

As soon as the official finished talking about Ning Xiaofan, he originally thought that Ning Xiaofan would leave in disgrace.

But when he saw Ning Xiaofan striding towards the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce, he was immediately startled, and immediately stepped forward to grab Ning Xiaofan's arm, and said loudly: "Boy, are you trying to make trouble for yourself? Hurry up, or I will arrest you to the yamen." ”

Ning Xiaofan was grabbed by the official messenger, and with a casual flick of his arm, the official messenger was directly thrown several meters away and fell to the ground.

This scene made the people who watched the excitement and the other officials who were shocked.

Who would have thought that in broad daylight, someone would dare to beat an official.

Suddenly, all the officials around him surrounded him, and they all looked at the posture with a menacing attitude, which was clearly to correct Ning Xiaofan on the spot.

Ning Xiaofan listened to the fight upstairs, and was anxious, if his master was injured, he would never forgive himself.
