When Zhang Xin'er's soup was ready, the scholar got up and cleaned up the tables and chairs, Wang Yue had already put the sword into the sheath, and a trance ink sword disappeared from his hand, if it weren't for Zhang Chen's paintings, everything just now seemed to be a dream.

At this time, Guan Ning also came out of the house with a yawn, although his face was still a little tired, but the brand-new clothes, the well-combed hair, and the white face did not show any traces of last night.

Li Wei and Niu Er also stopped snoring one after another, and everyone walked out of the room after washing, all of them were in good spirits, drinking soup and eating around the table.

After breakfast, everyone packed their bags, put down their lodging money, and continued to ride on horseback, and the road was smooth and steady, and there were no accidents.

It's just that every day, Zhang Xin'er began to cook soup and cook in the morning, change the water and feed the horses at noon, clean up their beds at night, wash and dry them, and I can't tell that this was once a rich lady.

Everyone was embarrassed from the beginning, but she refused many times and did not harden her stubbornness, and slowly they got used to having such a little girl around them who did not complain.

And Zhang Xin'er looks very festive, the chubby little guy always smiles happily on his face, and never complains.

A few days later, Guan Ning and his entourage finally arrived at the junction of Shanggu County and Dai County, not far from them, it was the city wall of Dangcheng County, and when they entered Dangcheng, they also entered Dai County.

It's just that the city is usually full of traffic, but today the city gate is closed, and the guards on the city wall are also like facing the enemy, with a white cloth on their heads, standing on the city wall, it makes people feel a bleak feeling.

Wang Yue looked at the heavily armed guards on the city wall, and the tense atmosphere that could be felt from so far away, and muttered, "The plague in Daijun is already so powerful?" ”

Guan Ning was noncommittal, turned his head to Li Li, who had a tangled and reminiscent face, and said, "Hanlong, go and inquire, who is in charge of Daijun now!" ”

Li Wei came back to his senses and arched his hand and said, "No! ”

Then Pegasus ran to Dangcheng, the distance was still far away, and the guards of Dangcheng began to shout to Li Wei, "The city gate has been closed, the prince has an order, all the counties of Daijun are closed, please go elsewhere!" ”

Li Wei ran to the city wall, stretched out his hand to take off the waist card of his Shizi's Mansion, and threw it vigorously on the city wall, "Li Jun, the personal guard under the command of the Marquis of Yanling of the Han Dynasty, asks to see the official of the acting county, I don't know which adult is in charge now?" ”

The guard picked up the waist card on the ground, with a big "Zhang" character on the front, and the words "Marquis Yan Ling" written on the back with a small silver seal, and said to Li Wei, "Wait a minute, general, I'll go and tell your lord!" ”

"Thank you, brother!"

Not long after, when the city chief Hu Jing appeared on the city wall, "Your Excellency is General Li Wei?" ”

"The general doesn't dare to be a general, Li Li is just a personal guard under the command of Marquis Yanling!"

Hu Jing repeatedly checked the waist card to confirm that it was correct, and now Wuhuan Xianbei has surrendered, even if it is fake, it depends on these people, Hu Jinggai is really not worried about what they will do, "I don't know where the general wants to go?" But do you want to find the son of the world? ”

"Excuse me, my lord, who is the person I am acting as the head of the county now? Where is Akishiko now? ”

"General Hui, now Daijun is the son of General Guorang, Prince Tian Pengzu is temporarily in charge, and General Zhangshizi and General Guorang and General Xian Yufu are still in Sangqian County and have not returned."

"Tian Pengzu..."Li Jun thought about it carefully in his mind, but he really couldn't find this person's name, "May I ask where Tian Gongzi is now?" ”

"Command in Dai County!"

"Thank you, my lord, I will ask you to go to Dai County and Sangqian County later, and say that I Li Jun is back."

"That's nature!"

After Li Li wanted to return his waist card, he rode back to Guan Ning and the others, told everyone the news, and quietly waited for Guan Ning's decision.

"Go to Dai County first, I have also met Tian Pengzu a few times, this time I need to find him first before talking about anything else."

"No!"

"Hurry up and go around the city without stopping!" Guan Ning looked at the faint figure on the city wall, clenched the reins in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Is it already decaying!" ”

Li Wei didn't ask any more why he didn't enter the city, after what happened during this period of time, he found that everything in his past was so naïve, this world is far from being as simple as he knows, and this world is not only simple, right and wrong black and white!

Guan Ning and his entourage did not stop, but walked directly around the city and went straight to Dai County.

When the sun was sinking, Guan Ning and his entourage had already arrived at the gate of Dai County, and it was still Li Li who opened the way, and his waist card proved his identity, but because many people in Dai County had seen Li Li, this time they were a lot more friendly.

Soon after, Tian Pengzu, who got the news, opened the city gate to greet Li Wei in person.

"Brother Hanlong, although you and I have never met, but your merits have been told by Lou Ban, and Dazhi and Dayong admire them very much!"

"Tian Gongzi Miao praised" Li Qian looked at Tian Pengzu who was smiling, and he was really a little unaccustomed, "This time it's a family teacher..."

"Brother Hanlong's family elders are also here?" Tian Pengzu interrupted Li Wei's words with a loud shout, "Hurry up and introduce Brother Wei, no, Brother Wei will personally greet you!" ”

After speaking, he beckoned his subordinates to wait in place, and then took Li Li's arm and walked towards Guan Ning and the others, who had already taken off their Liaodong clothes and armor, and were now dressed in black clothes, black robes, and black scarves and masked.

After Tian Pengzu walked in, he looked at Guan Ning, who was the leader, and didn't speak for a long time, Guan Ning didn't make a sound, and the two parties looked at each other silently.

Li Wei looked at the two people with big eyes and small eyes, scratched his head helplessly and said, "This is..."

"Tian Pengzu has seen the manager!" Without waiting for Li Wei to finish speaking, Tian Pengzu bowed down to salute, and his tone was not like the first time they met.

"You've grown up!" Guan Ning's tone was a little emotional, he raised his hand, and in the end he didn't stretch it out, but put his hand back silently.

"The steward shouldn't be here!" Tian Pengzu looked at Guan Ning, who was tall and tall, and said with a sigh.

"I know, but if they are allowed to do this, the country will be dragged on the grassland and will not be able to come back, and in the end, all achievements will be wiped out with this plague!"

"Do you know that if the news of your presence here spreads, my father will still not be happy!"

"Who has ever been better over the years?"

"It's not easy for you to live a stable life, so why bother."

"In this troubled world, who is innocent."

"What does the steward need me to do?"

"Give us a reasonable identity and a reason to go to Sangqian County."

"Okay."

After Tian Pengzu finished speaking, he pulled Li Li, who had a tangled face, and turned around and walked towards the city gate, greeting Li Li skillfully as he walked, as if the two were friends who had not seen each other for many years.

"Come on, arrange a courtyard for Brother Han Long, and settle Brother Han Long and the elders in his clan!" Tian Pengzu, who entered Dai County, immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare a courtyard for Guan Ning and the others to rest.

"Brother Hanlong, you go to rest first, I'll prepare the banquet later, I won't get drunk tonight!"

"The epidemic is urgent, don't be extravagant and wasteful now!"

"This..."Tian Pengzu's face showed embarrassment, "That's it, Brother Hanlong's family is profound, and he cares about the people, Peng Zu is ashamed of himself, since this is the case, then a little later, Peng Zu personally brought some good wine, and went to find Brother Hanlong, you don't want to turn someone away!" ”

"Of course, that's of course."

"Hahaha, okay, then I'll make a decision!"

"It's a deal!"

That night, Li Wei, who was very sleepy, was pressed by Guan Ning on the main hall and waited for Tian Pengzu.

"Old man, I don't think it matters if I don't show up today."

Guan Ning glanced at him with slanted eyes, his body didn't move, and he didn't talk to him.

"Senior brother, how about we go to the back hall for a drink?"

The scholar closed his eyes and was unmoved.

"Master Wang... Forget it, you move on! Li Wei was just about to accosting Wang Yue when he saw that he was not beside him, and looked up to see Wang Yue sitting on the beam, with the ink sword on his lap.

"Little chubby girl..."In the end, Li Wei, who was really helpless, turned his head and looked for the target of the chubby girl Zhang Xin'er.

"Oops, I'm going to cook!" When Zhang Xin'er heard Li Wei's voice, she quickly jumped up and ran to the kitchen step by step without giving Li Li a chance to say what she said.

“… Didn't we just finish eating? Li Li looked at Zhang Xin'er, who had run away, and said helplessly.

In the end, no one really cared about him, Li Li had to lower his head, like them, quietly waiting for Tian Pengzu's arrival, but he kept muttering, "I don't want to participate in your affairs, although the old man is very good to me, but I really don't want to participate......"

Soon after nightfall, there was a knock at the door, thinking that Tian Pengzu had arrived.

Guan Ning opened his eyes and said to Niu Er, "Kuiying, go open the door and welcome Tian Gongzi in." ”

"No." Niu Er stood up and strode towards the gate.

Not long after, the sturdy Niu Er appeared in the main hall with Tian Pengzu, and Wang Yue, who was on the beam of the house, saw them come in and opened his eyes, jumped down from the beam, walked outside the house by himself, and disappeared from people's eyes in a flash.

The scholar got up and gave way to the lower left place, walked to Li Wei's side, kicked Li Wei, who was distracted, and motioned for him to give up a place, and then sat down.

Niu Er returned to his place when he entered the house, and after Tian Pengzu entered the house, he did bow respectfully to Guan Ning, "Tian Pengzu has seen the manager, everything is okay with the manager?" ”

"It's okay, let's sit down." Guan Ning looked at Tian Pengzu in front of him, his eyes were a little moist, "I didn't expect that you haven't given up yet." ”

"Since my father and son have entered the wall of the poor family, they have been the children of the poor family all their lives, and they will never dare to turn their backs on the master!"

"Okay, okay, you're better than me, a bad old man."

"If there is no manager who travels around in his early years, how can I have the opportunity to rise from a humble family! The drama master and Guo Shi kept saying that the master has given us poor children a chance, and the rest is up to us! ”

"But they..."

"There is no smooth sailing in the world, and the family is still in danger of being destroyed at every turn, not to mention that my poor family has just entered this great world!"

"Alas, sit down, sit down!"

"No!"

After Guan Ning waited for Tian Pengzu to take his seat, he said to Tian Pengzu, "Why are you the only one in charge of this Nuoda Dai County, I found out when I saw that line of notice, if it weren't for the emergency, you would never be so risky."

"Master Guan is wise, there are indeed some accidents, not to mention that the outbreak of the plague this time was too sudden, and my father and the Marquis of Yan Ling were also dragged down by some things, and they couldn't turn around, so we are now very passive now."

"Do you know what's going on?"

"I don't know the specifics, I only know that it is related to the newly descended Wuhuan and Xianbei."

"I'll go to Sangqian County tomorrow, you arrange our identity, we can't hide it from here, but at least we need a clear identity, there are some things that can't be said!"

"No."
