Chapter 226: Someone Looks for It Again
Chapter 226 Someone is looking for it again
Zhou Ning ignored Lu Qing, and walked out of the inn with Lin Ying one after the other, Lin Ying looked at the side of the street and only felt that his steps were very heavy, and he really didn't want to step forward. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Lin Ying turned around and hugged Zhou Ning with a fist: "Son, stay behind." ”
Zhou Ning didn't return the salute, nor did he take her words, but asked, "How are you going?" ”
"Legs, of course." Lin Ying walked like this, and naturally walked back like this, how else could she walk?
Zhou Ning also went to the house of the chief examiner Lin Xiangye to thank his teacher when he was on the imperial list in high school, and he knew that the Xiangfu was not too close to the inn.
"Hire a sedan chair." Zhou Ning regretted not hiring a sedan chair for her yesterday, worried that she would be tired when she walked, and today she was even more reluctant to let her walk back to the prime minister's mansion step by step.
"No, you can go back." Lin Ying whispered to him: "It's too eye-catching for me to go back in a sedan chair." ”
Zhou Ning expected that she ran out secretly, and being a subordinate was naturally more of a last resort than him. Zhou Ning felt a little distressed, and there was nothing to help her.
"Then I'll send you to the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion." Zhou Ning wanted to walk back with her, but she refused without appreciation.
"Don't hurt me, let people see that I'm still alive?" Lin Ying waved his hand at him: "You stop, I'll go." ”
Lin Ying said to go, Zhou Ning took a step forward and stood still, and waved his hand at her, and suddenly had 10,000 words to say to her, but he opened his mouth but didn't say a word.
Zhou Ning stood in front of the inn and watched Lin Ying turn the corner, Lin Ying's figure was long gone, and Zhou Ning reluctantly turned around and walked into the inn.
But it was said that Lin Ying turned the corner and there was a group of little girls waiting there, she secretly looked at the inn and confirmed that Zhou Ning had entered the house, and she got into the eight-lift sedan chair.
Yesterday she ran out on her own, and today she didn't come out alone. She won't come step by step on a long road.
As soon as Zhou Ning entered the house, Lu Qing greeted him, and he smiled and handed over the invitation in his hand: "Son, the invitation sent by Qin Jin." ”
Zhou Ning glanced at the invitation, slightly stunned, Qin Jin sent him an invitation? Zhou Ning took the invitation and walked directly upstairs, and looked at it when he entered the house.
Lu Qing followed, and the two of them walked upstairs. After entering the house, Zhou Ning unfolded the invitation and saw that the few words on it were clearly written.
Tomorrow is the birthday of Lin Mingde, the head of the dynasty, and all the Chinese military officials in Beijing will go over to celebrate their birthdays, and Qin Jin wrote an invitation to invite Zhou Ning to go with him to congratulate Xiangye on his birthday.
Zhou Ning threw the invitation on the table and sneered: "Qin Jin is so good to me that I have nothing to say, and I even prepared a congratulatory gift for Xiangye's birthday." ”
"Does he have that kindness?" Lu Qingcai didn't believe it, Qin Jin was a guy with a beast's heart, and he couldn't be good to anyone and Zhou Ning.
Zhou Ning believed that Qin Jin said that if he prepared for him, he must really prepare it for him, this is by no means an empty favor, and Zhou Ning believes that Qin Jinbei's congratulatory gift can only be heavy, not light.
If Zhou Ning accepts Qin Jin's kindness and asks him to give a gift list casually, Qin Jin will definitely prepare a heavy gift.
In front of Zhou Ning like this, it seems that Qin Jin is righteous enough, and in front of Xiangye, he quietly pushed Zhou Ning to the cusp, and it is not a good thing to attract Xiangye's attention.
Being an official is most afraid of being targeted, and no matter how honest and good an official is, he is also afraid of investigation. What's more, even if you can't find anything, the process of checking is also tormenting.
Zhou Ning didn't think about it, and wrote a letter back to him when he picked up the pen and rejected him.
He first expressed his gratitude very politely, then greeted Qin Jin with false affection, and finally said that he came to Beijing in a hurry this time, and did not prepare any gifts for anyone, nor did he plan to participate in any occasion.
He didn't have to spend money on Qin Jin, and he didn't want to go to Lin Xiangye's birthday banquet. Hundreds of civil and military officials gathered, and Zhou Ning, a small seven-rank official, was afraid that he didn't even have a place to stand there.
After writing the reply, I remembered and asked Lu Qing: "Where is the person who sent the post?" ”
Lu Qing looked at the reply and said, "I have already sent it away." ”
"Oh, then you can send this to Qin Jin." Zhou Ning picked up the reply, blew up and down, and when the handwriting was dry, he folded the reply and stuffed it into an envelope.
"Yes." Lu Qing picked up the book and put it in his arms, looked at Zhou Ning and asked, "Do you have any other orders?" ”
Zhou Ning thought about it and there was nothing to do, so he shook his head, and Lu Qing turned around and walked out. As soon as Lu Qing closed the door, Zhou Ning's heart was like grass growing into a mess.
Usually he sees Lu Qing happy every day, but he doesn't feel anything, and sometimes he even envies Lu Qing a little, Lu Qing doesn't have to study as hard as him, and he doesn't have to carry the weight of the people of a county on his shoulders.
Now he always feels a little pitiful when he sees Lu Qing, he asks Lu Qing to go to the next book, Lu Qing has no choice at all, he has to go if he wants to go or not.
Thinking of Lin Ying being a maid in the Prime Minister's Mansion, life must be far less comfortable than Lu Qing. In addition to the identity of Lu Qing, he is also the personal disciple of the old man of the Zhou family.
Although he did not get rid of slavery, he was treated like half a son in the Zhou family. What does Lin Ying compare with Lu Qing?
Xiangfu is second only to Gonghou's brother, and it is a place where the true rules are greater than the sky. The bigger the rules, the more difficult it will be for the subordinates.
Looking at the chair that Lin Ying had just sat on, Zhou Ning sighed unconsciously, he couldn't wait to rush into the Prime Minister's Mansion and snatch Lin Ying out, but he could only think about it.
Zhou Ning never knew that the love between children was so entangled, just because she glanced at her, she occupied her whole heart.
No matter what should be done, Zhou Ning reached out and picked up the official document sent by the officials on the table, he opened it and read it carefully.
To the effect that he received the voucher he handed in, knew that he had come to the capital, and asked him to go to the Jinluan Palace the morning after tomorrow to meet the king.
Zhou Ning didn't know what he was doing in Beijing until now, he guessed that Qin Jin sued him, but nothing was reflected in the official documents, and he couldn't be sure what it would be.
Seeing the invitation sent by Qin Jin, Zhou Ning was really a little unsure. If Qin Jin sued him, how could he be embarrassed to send him an invitation?
Thinking about it, Qin Jin is also a monster that cannot be deduced by common sense, what others can't do doesn't mean that Qin Jin can't do it.
Qin Jin is the most likely to make out in person and then knife him in the back, and Zhou Ning has to guard against him.
The knock on the door interrupted Zhou Ning's thoughts, he walked over and dragged the door open, and the shopkeeper stood outside the door and said with a smile on his face: "Zhou Gongzi, someone is looking for you downstairs, do you want him to come up or?" ”
