Ji Xianzhi handed over the silk book in his hand.

Ning Nan frowned, opened the silk book bound by the string, and a line of juanxiu fonts came into view.

"My lord, it has been a few months since I parted, and now is the right time for me to write this book. Huiji Water Pavilion is no different, I am in the Guanzhong guard, has entered the thousands of machines. Although it is difficult to find the files of the deceased, one thing can also be discovered. Now I learned that the Jiang family presented an anecdote dream to visit Luoyang in the name of the pavilion master. I use flattery, and I will get a secret from Xue. At the end of the third year of Yongning, Dou Xunen's death was a little strange, and he led thousands of machines to visit everywhere. I hope you know. ”

Ning Nan set off a wave of worries. Yan Chunniang's letter made him confirm his conjecture half a month ago.

Sure enough, the reason why Dou Xunfen used Cheng Yue and Sun Chi to force Zhao Fu to do something to him was related to Dou Xunen, who died at the hands of the mountain bandits.

Ji Xianzhi saw that Ning Nan's face was not good, and thought that Yan Chunniang had sent back some bad news, so he hurriedly asked, "But there is an abnormality in Huijishui Pavilion?" ”

Seeing Uncle Ji's face full of worry, Ning Nan shook his head and said, "Definitely." Uncle Ji, why does An Pinghou want to kill me, I think this matter has a conclusion. ”

Ji Xianyi was stunned and was about to ask again, but Ning Nanwu handed back the silk book in his hand.

He hurriedly took it and looked at it carefully.

After a while, Ji Xian's heart had goosebumps, staring at the three words Dou Xunen written in Yan Chun's silk book, he couldn't help but think of the old things, and the speculation in his heart made him more and more chilled.

"Zhou Yuancheng said, the Thousand Machines of the Water Pavilion was almost the news that he got together with the Yegong Pavilion, and Dou Xunfen, the Marquis of Zhi'an, secretly attacked the lord. With that said.... At this time, Shui Ge is looking for the murder of Dou Xunen on the outskirts of Luoyang on his way back to his hometown seventeen years ago... Also related to Anpinghou? Ji Xianzhi asked.

Ning Nan nodded and said, "If it has nothing to do, there is no need for the Thousand Machines Department to investigate the old story of Dou Xunen's murder." ”

He narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance, and the question in his heart deepened.

Why did Dou Xunfen attack him?

What is the mystery of what happened back then?

"Uncle Ji... Fast horse sent a message to Jianye, and ordered Zhou Yuancheng to carefully investigate the death of Dou Xunen that year. Ning Nan was anxious to know the answer, and the light in his eyes dimmed, deep and unfathomable.

Ji Xianzhi nodded hurriedly, and then bowed down and mentioned something: "The lord doesn't want to know... Why is there an ancient book of "Tianrui" treasured by Shen Fuzi in a small city like Quanling? The old slave's search has yielded results. ”

Ning Nan's worried face immediately became nervous, and he hurriedly asked, "But Mr. has been here recently?" ”

Ji Xianzhi nodded and replied: "Master Shen did come to Quanling. ”

Ning Nan's face was overjoyed, his eyes lit up, and he asked cautiously for a moment: "That... Where is the gentleman now? ”

"Master Shen..." Speaking of this, Ji Xianzhi suddenly hesitated, and saw Ning Nan's anxious expression, so he said: "Master Shen is at the moment... It's Changshan Hou Jiacheng..."

These words made Ning Nan stunned, and immediately denied: "It's impossible!" How could Mr. go to Mingyuan Mansion to be the head of the house? Mr. fell out with his father... Over the years, I have been extremely disgusted with what the three of us brothers have done... How can he be willing to serve the third brother? ”

"My lord, the battle of Quanling... Shen Fuzi and Chang Shanhou were in Zhang's private mansion... The old slave has been identified. At this moment, the master was degraded and exiled because of the Marquis of Changshan... also followed him to the bitter cold land of the Youzhou Frontier..."Ji Xianzhi told the man in front of him the contents of the file submitted by the Yegong Pavilion as it was, and couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw his panicked look of disbelief.

"Don't think too much about it... Maybe Master Shen just wants to keep an eye on Chang Shanhou for the lord..."

Ning Nan lowered his eyes and laughed at himself: "What does Mr. mean... I'm afraid it's not for me to keep an eye on Ning Nankun. ”

His lost appearance made Ji Xianzhi sigh slightly.

"Master Shen must have a reason for doing this... The lord is suspicious and thoughtful, but he will misinterpret the meaning of the master. ”

"Uncle Ji, I insisted on investigating the teacher's case back then. Unscrupulous means, many people have been killed. My husband was disappointed in me, thinking that I had not inherited the mantle of a teacher... I didn't learn a trace of benevolence from my teacher. Later, I insisted on avenging my teacher... Painstakingly laid out... Only then did Mr. no longer bear it, so he was forced to go to Jizhou.

Now, when my husband has entered the third brother's door, he already wants to prevent me from taking revenge. ”

Ning Nan suddenly felt ridiculous, he looked at Ji Xianzhi with a pair of cold eyes, and said lightly: "Mr. has pity on those who were killed by me... But who will pity the teacher? The teacher also took pity on others back then... In exchange for what? ”

Ji Xianzhi was dumbfounded and silent.

At the end of the second year of Yangjia, the five marquis, together with the Huai king Ning Zheng, the Taiwei Deng Guozhong and the Deng clan, took advantage of the general Yueqi's expedition to the frontier to fight with the Qiang clan, and stole the symbol of the Chang Mengjun army, the army controlled by the Yue clan, so that the 50,000 army gathered outside the capital, and slandered the Yue Qi clan and the Lu clan, the Lu clan, and the Murong clan to rebel. Wei An Di Ning ordered the rebel army to be killed. When the Yue Lao general Shengqiang clan returned to the dynasty with his troops, he learned that the Yue, Lu, Lu, and Murong clans had been raided and destroyed.

When the Huns invaded Xinjiang wantonly, and there was no one to fight in the Great Wei, Yue Qi endured the pain and asked for the order, hoping to fight with the sin, and rushed to the state non-stop, and died in the hands of the Xiongnu king Ashanda in the war, and was picked off by him to break the tendon and cut off his right leg. His body was tied to the horse by the brutal Huns, dragged for dozens of miles in the yellow sand, blood was sprinkled all over it, and the body was divided by five horses.

is obviously a loyal martyr, and he has shed blood on the battlefield all his life. Defend the people of a frontier and protect the land of 10,000 people. After his death, he was branded as a traitor, robbed his family and exterminated his family, and was scolded by tens of thousands of people. 12

And Lu Yu, the head of the Lu family, the crown prince and the prince of Lu Ti, who had created the popular Lu Ti in the capital, also died tragically in this conspiracy.

At the time of the incident, Ning Nan was eleven years old.

My father didn't like it, and my mother was seriously ill. What Ning Nan can rely on is Ji Xianzhi and his teacher Lu Yu, who have been by his side since childhood.

Lu Yu's death made the only light in Ning Nan's gloomy life dissipate.

After this, his heart was filled with hatred.

Ji Xianyi walked over with him all the way, seeing his pain, regret and loneliness in his eyes. He couldn't persuade him, and he didn't dare to persuade Ning Nanwu to put down his hatred.

He knew that this was Ning Nan's lifelong obsession. Ning Nan, who has been worn out of all hopes, can only rely on this obsession to survive in this life.

"If the gentleman insists on opposing me, let him oppose it." Ning Nan laughed worriedly, a chill flowed from his dark eyes, "I must take off Deng Guozhong's head." My father's confession, I will also let him say it to the teacher's tablet in person. ”

He was paranoid, dark, and even sick to a certain extent, and the sparkling coldness in his eyes made Ji Xianzhi tremble.

"My lord." Ji Xianzhi called, and suddenly found that he had nothing to say, so he could only endure the cold, and said tremblingly, "No matter what, the old slave will be by the master's side." Never give up. ”

Ning Nan stared at his determined expression, his heart was slightly touched, and his mind inexplicably appeared in his mind when he galloped out of the horse to chase Jiang Chengjia, the words that the little girl said.

"Yes! Indeed, you are the son of a courtier! But what does a person's quality have to do with his life experience? Even if you have done heinous things in the past, I firmly believe that since I am married to you, one day in the future, I will be able to change you. ”

Such words echoed in his ears, making him feel even more ridiculous.

His life has long been stained with blood, and it cannot be washed away in this life, and there is no one who can save it.

Suddenly. Ning Nan turned the wrench on his thumb and said tiredly: "Uncle Ji, I'm tired." Go down. ”

When Ji Xianzhi retreated, Ning Nan was worried about calming down alone.

After all, Shen Yuzhi is also a brother and a friend to him. When he knew that Shen Yuzhi had entered Ning Nankun's mansion, the last glimmer of hope in his heart was also crushed.

In this world, there is one less person who silently supports and defends him by his side.

...

When Jiang Chengjia came out of the South Courtyard, it was already dark. She and Li Xiangjun served the Cao family together, and ate hastily at noon, because she had not eaten in the morning, and now she is tired. Her brain ached faintly, and she felt that the head wind that had just subsided seemed to be about to attack again, and she finally got rid of Li Xiangjun, and she walked all the way to the kitchen in the east courtyard, wanting to make some food by herself.

Qian Shan didn't wait in the room for the past two days, and has been following Ji Xianzhi and Biyun to deal with the affairs of the house. I want to come for two days, and the income and expenditure account books and all kinds of volumes of the whole government will also come into my hands, if I don't take advantage of this time to have a good rest, I am afraid that there will be a headache in the future.

She hurriedly passed under the porch, which happened to attract the attention of Ning Nanwei, who was alone in the courtroom.

Seeing Jiang Chengjia so hurriedly walking towards the East Courtyard, Ning Nanwu knew that she had gone to eat again. But today, he didn't have the heart to follow and see.

The whole person leaned against the stone slab under the corridor, looking at the last bit of red sun on the edge of the sky in a daze.

"Brother Zhao! Brother Zhao! ”

Suddenly, a gentle call came to my ears.

He woke up, looked down, and saw Li Xiangjun wearing a light-colored velvet coat and a scarlet fairy skirt, standing in front of him and looking at him nervously.

"What's wrong with you? So lost? ”

"Sister Jun?" Ning Nan's voice was a little hoarse, and she responded tiredly, "Why is Sister Jun here?" ”

"Brother Zhao can have dinner?" Li Xiangjun asked softly.

He shook his head silently.

Li Xiangjun immediately became helpless: "Why do you not care about your body so much like before?" Let's go, I'll take you to eat. ”

Ning Nan said lazily: "I don't have an appetite today... Sister Jun, forget it. ”

"I can't control you, be careful I tell my aunt and let her cure you!" Li Xiangjun glared at him, although it was a scolding, it was surprisingly gentle.
