Chapter 54: Threats

Of course, dinner can't really be served with braised or steamed princess.

While eating, Ning Jiang, who listened to his sister tell him what had happened, was dumbfounded.

My sister actually told Qimeng in front of so many people that he liked her?

And he gave her the poem he wrote the night before?

Xiaomeng took the chopsticks, lowered his head slightly, and asked in a low voice: "Brother...... Am I doing something wrong? ”

Ning Jiang wrapped his left hand around his chest and knocked his chin with his right hand, wanting to analyze this matter from a rational point of view, to find out the impact of this incident on his goal of participating in the "Taishan Feng Zen", to find out the chain reaction it would cause, and then to judge whether his sister was right or wrong.

It turned out that it was impossible to do it at all.

Whether it is for his sister or for Qimeng, who thinks he is indebted in his previous life, he can't analyze it purely from a "rational" point of view.

So, he touched his sister's head, lowered his head, and ate heavily.

"Brother?" Xiaomeng, who didn't get an answer from his brother, was still nervous.

Ning Jiang raised his head and said with a smile: "You have helped my brother do so much, and then my brother will have to work hard." Study hard, take the autumn exam, and go to the capital...... Go see her!! ”

"Hmm!" Xiaomeng took the chopsticks, and the chopsticks poked on the table, "Brother, you will definitely be able to do it...... You're my brother! ”

The sky outside the door slowly darkened, and the bright moon moved into the sky, and the starlight shone brightly in the night sky.

In the middle of the night, the young man who had finished reading came to the courtyard, holding the scroll in his left hand and holding his hands on his back, looking up at the bright starlight and the full moon like a silver plate.

By the next day, Ning Jiang had re-entered Tang Yu Academy, and the attitudes of the other students towards him had obviously become complicated.

Yesterday afternoon, Qimeng and his sister each helped him throw out a poem, leaving all the students speechless.

It's hard to say whether he is the "No. 1 Genius in Tongzhou", but this "No. 1 Poet in Tongzhou" may not be able to run.

Especially the sentence "There are no colorful phoenix wings, and the heart is a little clear", like the wind, it blew into thousands of households, and many people praised it, and all the students could only be convinced.

It is precisely because of this that some students who seemed to be estranged from Ningjiang in the past, after meeting him, would arch their hands and say hello, and in a course with poetry as the main purpose, the scripture teacher who taught was "the sky connected with the clouds and the clouds" and "the stars and the wind last night", sentence by sentence, deconstructed many thought-provoking connotations, so that Ning Jiang himself was stunned.

However, for Ning Jiang, he doesn't care too much about these, on the one hand, he wants to continue to prepare for the Qiu Yu, although he has enough confidence, but for him, this is a battle that cannot be lost after all, from a certain point of view, the fate of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty can be said to be tied to him alone.

On the other hand, he was still listening to the details of the natural disaster that occurred in Yuyue Lake.

On that day, at the gate of the city, the sun was in the sky, and streams of heat rose on the dry ground. Ningjiang and many ordinary people were crowded on both sides of the street.

After waiting for a while, the sound of wheels was heard, and a military general with a team of soldiers and armor escorted a prisoner cart into the city.

The prisoner's cart was made of fine iron, and the prisoner in the cart was a monster bound with iron cables, and the monster had two horns on its forehead, and its eyes were as big as bull's eyes, and its whole body was as black as black iron. Although before this, everyone had heard the news that a monster appeared in Yue Lake on the night of the Meteorite Heavenly General, but when they really saw this monster, many people still gasped.

Suddenly, the monster stared at someone in the crowd, roaring, roaring, and the chains rattled with it.

The murderous roar frightened some of the children and women into crying.

Ning Jiang held his hands in the panicked crowd and looked coldly at the roaring monster in the cage.

He felt ...... Or was he sure...... The monster was staring at him!!

A natural disaster that never appeared in his previous life, a monster that never appeared in his previous life...... Even he didn't know what that meant.

With a snap, he opened the folding fan, put his left hand behind his back, and turned to leave.

Although, he has been faintly aware that the wheel of history is deviating in a direction he does not know, and the Yuehu natural disaster and the heavenly general monster are probably just a small episode in it, no one knows what will happen again in the future.

But it doesn't matter, the car will block, and the water will cover it.

It's just that even he didn't expect that without much preparation for him, the first test came unexpectedly......

***

The solar term has reached the "great heat", the weather is extremely hot, walking on the road, the distant mountains seem to be distorted by the heat vacated by the road.

The golden crow hung high in the sky, continuing to wreak havoc on the earth, and in the distance, among the fields, the farmer sweated and dug a ditch to divert water, and under a tree, an old beggar with his granddaughter, in rags, begged everyone who passed by with a filthy broken bowl, and the girl sat beside the old beggar, staring blankly at the sun spread in the shade of the tree.

The maple leaves on the mountain are still faint brown at this time, at a glance, the whole Kongshan is like a bulging soil bag, the academy at the foot of the mountain, the sound of reading one after another, all seem listless, the summer heat is just sleeping, such a hot weather, it is indeed not a good day to read.

Ning Jiang walked forward along the shadow of a row of yellow walls that had fallen.

In front of him, there was an old building that had been abandoned in Tang Yu Academy, and in the corner of the old building, there was a person standing, dressed in a strong suit and wearing a hat.

Ning Jiang stepped forward and arched his hand: "Zhao Zhutou, long time no see!" ”

This person turned out to be Zhao Hong, the former head catcher of Gaosuo County.

Zhao Hong looked at him, his eyes widened, and he suddenly shouted: "Ningjiang, where is Cao Zhi County?" ”

Ning Jiang's face did not change: "Cao Zhi County? It's been months since Master Cao disappeared, so how would Xiao Sheng know where he was? ”

Zhao Hong sneered: "Ning Jiang, it's useless for you to hide it, I already know that Lord Cao was killed by you." ”

"Zhao Zhutou, you don't want to spew blood," Ning Jiang sneered, "I'm a person with merit and fame, you are so deliberately slanderous, if the lawsuit goes to the government, you can't produce evidence, and you will definitely not be able to eat and walk around." ”

Zhao Hong said gloomily: "Do you really have no evidence for me?" ”

Ning Jiang stood there, looking at him quietly.

Zhao Hong sneered, and lowered his voice: "The surname is Ning, even if you hide it from me, it's useless, but don't worry, I don't plan to shake out your affairs, it's just that Lord Cao is always good to me, and he left like this, and he didn't even take my head catcher...... Hmph, don't you have to make amends? The tone was full of menace.

Ning Jiang glanced at the old wall behind him, mocking in his heart......
