Lingjing Hutong and Tangzi Hutong look not far away, and the distance is not close to measured with your feet. Zhang Ning muttered as he walked, next time he came over, he would have to ride a horse or take a carriage, and it would be too much time to walk. Well, the most important thing is that it doesn't fit his image as a noble son.

When he arrived at the Lingjing Hutong, he was greeted by a carriage speeding towards him, and if Zhang Ning hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been hit. He was frightened, the carriage had passed by with a "whoosh", and then a heart-rending cry sounded: "Childe! ”

The sound is a little familiar. Zhang Ning followed the prestige, the horses neighed and stood up, the carriage stopped, and there was a sound in the carriage, presumably the carriage stopped in a hurry, and someone hit the wall of the carriage by inertia.

The voice from before shouted again: "Childe! ”

This time, Zhang Ning heard it, it was Qing'er.

What was she doing in a hurry? Zhang Ning was just about to go over, when a head poked out of the car window, and a big bag on his forehead: "A-Ning, are you back?" The curtain of the car was lifted, and one person jumped out of the car, but it was Liu Nian.

Qing'er jumped down, landed unsteadily, and let out an "ouch", and then ran over regardless of it, grabbed Zhang Ning's sleeve, and tears fell down like pearls.

Zhang Ning was stunned: "Who can tell me, what's going on?" ”

Liu Nianfei quickly glanced at Zhang Ning, making sure that he was not missing arms and legs, his tone softened, and said: "Senior brother Gao went back to the house to report that you were bound by the lord of Ding'an County, I will go to find someone to save you, Qing'er has to follow." ”

"Woo woo woo ......" Qing'er said while crying, and said vaguely: "The son must have three long and two short, and the slave and maid will not live." ”

"Isn't that all right for me? Don't cry. Zhang Ning pulled back his sleeve and patted Qing'er's head with his right hand.

Qing'er grabbed a life-saving straw like a drowning man, her two little hands tightly grasped Zhang Ning's sleeve again, and twitched: "You haven't said it's okay if your hat fell off." ”

"It's the hat that fell off, not the head that fell off, what's the matter?" What does it look like to pull and cry and cry on the street? Zhang Ning was speechless, pulled back his sleeve and held it with his backhand, and said, "While crying." ”

Qing'er wiped her tears and retreated behind Zhang Ning, Gongzi wanted to talk to Liu Gongzi, she couldn't stand in the way.

Zhang Ning said to Liu Nian seriously: "Thank you." ”

Brothers are brothers, I don't have to say. Youyou is the Empress Dowager and the former red, the daughter of King Zheng, and the rightful county lord, he is just a little earl, the son of Daniel Zhang, the deputy chief soldier of Datong, the two have very different identities and statuses, Yoyo moves the real character, how can Liu Nian save him? But Liu Nian didn't hesitate to retreat, this brother is worth befriending.

"If it's a brother, don't mention the word thanks." Liu Nian said with concern: "You haven't been tortured, have you?" ”

"Nope."

Zhang Ning turned his gaze to the driver Gao Da Brother who was driving. He is one of Zhang Ning's two personal guards, and like Ren Gao, he is not only a murderous person after a hundred battles, but also Daniel Zhang's henchman.

Seeing Zhang Ning tied up in the Anding County Lord's Mansion outside the restaurant, after the two discussed, Ren Gao, who was strong, guarded outside the County Lord's Mansion, paying attention to Zhang Ning's movements at any time, and the tall brother who was good at running returned to the house to report the news and move the rescuers.

The tall elder brother held the reins, a little helpless in concern, and shouted: "Childe." ”

Zhang Ning nodded and did not reproach him.

"Let's go home." Zhang Ning said, first walked to the Lingjing Hutong.

Liu Nian followed, Qing'er had stopped crying, but her eyes were red and swollen, and the tear stains on her little face had not been wiped clean. The tall elder brother opened his mouth, but still said, "Please get in the car." ”

"No, just a few steps." Zhang Ning waved his hand.

Is Childe angry? The tall brother thought silently, leading the horse and letting the carriage slowly follow.

As soon as Zhang Ning entered the mansion, his eyes widened, and fifty or sixty sturdy guards lined up in two rows, some with sticks, some with spears, and some with big knives, this is the rhythm of going to fight?

"Childe is back." Qing'er hurriedly said.

In his early forties, the ordinary-looking housekeeper Lao Guan shook as if he had been struck by lightning, wiped his eyes, and barely saw that the young man who was not wearing a hat and had many stains on his clothes was his own little master. ”

Needless to say, he gathered these people.

Zhang Ning took a long breath and said, "Uncle Guan, force can't solve the problem. "How is it different from rebelling to lead these people to attack the county lord's mansion? He was bound, and it was ordered by the emperor himself, and he did it leisurely.

"Yes, yes, yes." Lao Guan responded with a voice, turned his head and shouted at the nurses: "The son is back, let's disperse." ”

These nursing homes are veterans who retired under Daniel Zhang, one by one who fought bloodily in Datong for most of their lives, not to mention that killing the enemy is almost the same, and they had to retire after breaking their hands and feet, and they had no other livelihood, Daniel Zhang took them in after filing with the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, let them become nursing homes, and gave them a bite to eat.

"Childe." After the nurses saluted, their eyes fell on Zhang Ning, and they turned around and left after making sure that Zhang Ning had all his hands and feet.

Lao Guan grew up with Daniel Zhang since he was a child, although his eyesight is not good, but he is indeed loyal to Daniel Zhang, otherwise Daniel Zhang would not let him guard the mansion and guard the home. Zhang Ning couldn't say anything to him, so he opened his mouth and said, "You can go down too." ”

"Childe, why did the county lord tie you up? Do you want to write to tell the master? "Lao Guan thinks long-term.

Zhang Ning said: "No. Go down and rest. ”

"Really?" Lao Guan is not at ease, the little master is not very reliable, so it is better to tell the master the situation and let the master take the idea.

What's your expression? Zhang Ning smiled bitterly: "I will write a letter, you don't have to worry about it." ”

"Okay." As long as you tell the old man about the situation, Lao Guan left with peace of mind.

Zhang Ning asked Liu Nian to wait for him in the study, went back to the room by himself, and waited for Qing'er to re-curl his hair, change into clean clothes, and clean up before going over.

Qing'er washed her face and had a smile on her face.

"Good tea and snacks?" Liu Nian saw her put a plate of dim sum on the table in front of the two of them, and quipped. Zhang Ning came back with all his tails, so he was in the mood to make fun of the little girl.

Qing'er pursed her lips and smiled, "Thank you Liu Gongzi." "You rushed over as soon as you received the letter, and I can see it all in my eyes because you are so concerned about my son-in-law.

Zhang Ning motioned for Qing'er to step back, took a sip of the teacup, and said in a low voice: "Ah Nian, do you have any readers?" It is better to be a jinshi and a lifter. ”

The imperial examination system is strict, and being able to win the examination is enough to show that you are talented and learned, and it is not a problem to make a splendid article without saying that it is easy to come by.

Liu Nian's eyes fell: "Have you found the topic?" For this reason, the county lord of Ding'an found out, and she wants to tie you up to see the British duke? ”

"Got it." Zhang Ning looked like this matter was not worth mentioning, chuckled, and said, "How could she tie me up to see the British duke?" She invited me to tea and snacks. The dim sum in the county lord's mansion is really good, but the candied fruit is a little worse. ”

"......" Liu Nian was like seeing a ghost, and his mouth was open enough to stuff a duck egg.
