Ji Ning didn't stay in the Temple of Literature for too long, because he hadn't officially started work yet, and he had seen some colleagues here for a long time, which meant putting pressure on his colleagues in advance.

This can be regarded as a kind of office politics, Ji Ning didn't want to stay longer, so he simply said goodbye to Lin Tingheng and went back to rest first, but Lin Tingheng seemed to insist that he must send Ji Ning away.

“…… Bachelor Ji, you have just arrived at the Temple of Literature, you should be accompanied by someone when you go in and out, if you see a stranger, you can't explain it yourself, right? If anyone is passing by, I can introduce you below! Lin Tingheng said enthusiastically.

Ji Ning knew that this was a difficult affair, and it didn't make sense to say anything to Lin Tingheng, so it was better to obey Lin Tingheng's intentions and let him take him out of the Temple of Literature, and by the way, he could ask some things.

"In the Temple of Literature in Jinling City, what major events have happened in the past few years?" Ji Ning asked casually.

Lin Tingheng walked on Ji Ning's side, and he was curious: "Isn't Master Ji from Jinling?" Could it be that Bachelor Ji doesn't know much about the situation of the Confucian Temple in Jinling City? ”

Ji Ning shook his head and said: "Even if you are in Jinling, but you have always been in a state of study before, how can you investigate the matter of Jinling Confucian Temple?" Besides, many of the things in this Temple of Literature are secret, and it is impossible to know about them, so I can only ask Brother Wen'an! ”

"I see...... Some things, it's still hard to say, let's put it this way, after the scholar enters the Temple of Literature, many things will naturally be understood, and some words are still not suitable for saying in advance, forgive me! Lin Tingheng had a gesture of wanting to speak and stopping.

This made Ji Ning very depressed, his feelings were still selling, and he deliberately hid it and didn't say it, the more so, the more it could arouse people's curiosity, Ji Ning was also wondering in his heart, is there anything worth avoiding in this Jinling City?

……

……

After Ji Ning came out of the Confucian Temple, he was originally going to return to his hometown first, but when he suddenly returned to his hometown, he couldn't help but have the idea of revisiting his hometown.

Driven by this idea, he walked to the direction of the Qinhuai River, the most lively in the city, and walked to the Qinhuai River, he took a look at the scenery along the way, because it was the autumn season, and it was the time of the melons and fruits in Jinling City, and it was also the time of harvest, and even the merchants and traders in Jinling City seemed to have a lot more.

From afar, Ji Ning saw the Tianxiang Tower, which he had visited many times, which was also a landmark building in the entire Jinling City.

Ji Ning couldn't help but think of the scene when he was eating, drinking, and having fun in it, and even meeting Liu Ru at the beginning, at this time he would sigh a little in his heart, after all, Liu Ru was still living in the capital at this time, and it would seem that the whole world had forgotten this famous prostitute of Qin Huai, who was once famous in the south of the Yangtze River.

"This time and that time, in this Jinling City, just the girls are endless, for thousands of years, how many beautiful women have been born in this place of wind and moon, but how many people can leave their names in history? After all, women are only the appearance of decades of beauty, and even many women, only when she is known in the prime of her youth, will disappear completely in just a few years, and this rule seems to be unchangeable! ”

Ji Ning thought about things, he didn't plan to go to Tianxiang Tower, it was originally daytime, and there would not be too many guests in Tianxiang Tower, and during the day, Tianxiang Tower didn't even open the door to pick up guests, only at night, this was the place where the wind and moon never sleeped.

When I walked to the riverbank, I suddenly saw some officers and soldiers asking about something, and a group of officers and soldiers were shouting at some people who looked like officials and family members, and many people were watching.

After Ji Ning walked over, more people came out in the distance, as if these officers and soldiers didn't show mercy at all, and directly began to take people, and the crowd also began to clamour, it seems that the people who were taken still have a very high status in the local area, but Ji Ning doesn't know much about these people.

In the end, the officers and soldiers took down the dozens of people, put them in the prisoner car and took them away, and while the crowd was watching the excitement, some of them were also sighing: "What if they are officials? In the past, it was said that officials and officials protected each other, but now it seems that if any official falls, it will also affect a group of people! ”

Because there is no beginning or end to these words, Ji Ning doesn't know what he is talking about, but I think it is related to the officialdom earthquake in Jinling City, before he arrived in Jinling City, he actually learned some information, because of the fall of Chongwangfu, many local families have been affected, and the imperial court is ready to inquire about the remnants of Chongwangfu, in fact, Zhao Yuanrong has not given such an order, but the local officials have not taken care of any principles in order to flatter the king!

"When the Chongwang Mansion gained power in Jinling City, many families chose to stand on the side of the Chongwang Mansion, and now that the Chongwang Mansion has fallen, they all want to draw a clear relationship with the Chongwang Mansion, which is exactly what happened to the situation!"

When Ji Ning thought of this, he would also be a little depressed in his heart, because the matter of Chongwangfu was not concluded for the time being, and he didn't know what the current situation of Zhao Yuanqi's brothers and sisters was.

Because Ji Ning had a little more worry in his heart, he didn't plan to stay longer, and was about to go back to the house immediately, but halfway through, he saw that an official was taking people.

Not only is the Jinling prefect's yamen taking people, but even the Jinling local military defense yamen is also taking people, and it seems that they are arresting some "criminals" on charges of endangering the imperial court, and most of these criminals are from local official eunuch families, and the local yamen wants to please the king, so they fabricate accusations, saying that these families have joined forces with the Chongwang Mansion to rebel, and after taking down the people, they will obtain "evidence" through some illegal means, and then submit these evidence to the imperial court to bring the people of these families to justice.

Ji Ning felt that the local yamen was disregarding people's lives.

Ji Ning didn't comment on this matter, he was just very unhappy in his heart, because he knew that he didn't have the ability to change all this, and it was not appropriate to let Zhao Yuanrong deal with the local affairs in Jinling, and now the relationship between him and Zhao Yuanrong was not as harmonious as before.

Just as Ji Ning was about to return home, a voice came: "It seems that when you see this, it's already very dull, isn't it?" ”

It was like a questioning voice, and when someone came over, Ji Ning saw that it was Shangguan Wan'er in men's clothes.

"You've been stalking me?" Ji Ning frowned.

In the past, whenever Shangguan Wan'er followed him, he would be aware of it, but this time he didn't notice Shangguan Wan'er's tracking at all.

Shangguan Wan'er said: "Maybe they are following you in the downtown area, but they are not even noticed by you, you seem to be thinking about things, do you think that the current situation has affected the stability of the imperial court?" Or are you not going to bother with these things at all? ”
