Ji Ning and his entourage, after arriving at the banks of the river by horse-drawn carriage, took a boat to the north, took the Grand Canal directly, and headed towards the capital.

There are a lot of people in a group, and they all bring their families, not like the candidates who go to the capital to catch the exam, but it seems to be a group to go out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, because the next year is the test year, there are many people who go north to the capital, and it is the most convenient to go north by boat, so that the bumps on the road can be seen all the way to the north, but the ships going south are basically transporting goods.

After getting on the ship, what Ji Ning has to do every day is not much different from when he was in Jinling City, that is, he reads in the cabin, occasionally comes out to the deck to relax, and in the evening he may have a party with Tang Xie and others, and when he passes by some scenic spots, he will come down to visit, write a few articles, and then organize them together, saying that he is going to organize the articles into a book after arriving in the capital, so that they can be printed in the future.

The five people who walked together were also very conspicuous among all the fleets that went north to the capital, and the only person around Ji Ning who could really believe was Yuling, a little girl.

It's a pity that the little girl was a little uncomfortable after getting on the boat, not only a little seasick, but also a cold and cold, and she was dizzy every day, but even so, she still had to take care of Ji Ning's daily life every day, serving tea and water, and even preparing the foot washing water and bathing soup at night, and the little girl was also very careful about taking care of Ji Ning along the way.

"Young master, when we arrive in the capital, the slave wants to buy some fun things and bring them back to Jinling, young master, do you say it's okay?" It was not dawn that morning, and the group was still resting in the post station on the shore, Yu Ling had already entered Ji Ning's room, and the little girl didn't need to deliberately avoid it when she helped Ji Ning do something, after Ji Ning woke up, the little girl still knelt beside Ji Ning, her little hands were still moving, but the little head raised her head and said to Ji Ning.

Ji Ning smiled and nodded: "You can buy whatever you want, you take care of the silver, as long as you ensure the usual living needs, and leave the rest to you to dispose of!" ”

"Don't spend so much, just buy some small things and go back, so that others will know that I followed the young master to the capital. Hmph, the young master sometimes doesn't feel sorry for people, the slaves and maids are sick, and the young master still lets the slaves and maids do this...... Woo......" After Yu Ling finished speaking, his mouth was already gagged.

Ji Ning touched her little head with a smile and said, "You didn't come by yourself every time?" Look at the appearance of your spring heart, is it that I have to ...... with you before I catch the exam A good thing? ”

"No way!" Yu Ling raised his head and said resolutely, "The young master will take the exam in the spring next year, and he must not have other thoughts, even if the young master ...... If you really want a slave and maid, you have to wait for the young master to finish the exam, otherwise if the young master can't pass the exam, then the slave and maid will be sinners. Young master, the slave maid usually just thinks that the young master is working too hard, and come over to let the young master relieve his fatigue, but it's not ...... What kind of spring heart is budding, don't make fun of the slave in the future, the young master, otherwise...... The slave will not come in the future! ”

"Hmm." Ji Ning smiled and nodded again, no longer interfering in Yuling's affairs, and concentrating on enjoying the warmth of this moment.

After a long time, after some special reaction, Yu Ling hurriedly got down from the bed, looked at Ji Ning with wide eyes, then tidied up his clothes, put on small embroidered shoes, and hurried to the side of the basin to rinse his mouth.

Ji Ning continued to lie down with his eyes closed, with such a caring little girl taking care of his daily life, Ji Ning was also very satisfied, but Ji Ning didn't know who he would marry in the future, and what his wife's attitude towards Yu Ling was. Ji Ning wants to marry a woman who can be in the master, and he thinks that this person is none other than "Su Pujia", but Ji Ning also knows that he knows very little about Su Pujia, and Su Pujia may not be able to accept a little girl who is obedient to him as a concubine.

But Ji Ning made up his mind in his heart that no matter what, Yu Ling would stay in Ji Mansion to accompany him, and he didn't plan to marry Yu Ling because he was reluctant.

……

……

Ji Ning is on the boat, and he won't have more thoughts, he reads and writes every day, and Yu Ling accompanies him a lot of the time, if he wants to drink tea, Yu Ling will pour tea himself.

It's getting colder every day.

As for Tang Xie and the others, they are much more relaxed than Ji Ning every day, and several people often shout for Ji Ning to go down for a tour together, and it seems that going north to the capital is not a big deal.

October 20, after traveling for more than ten days, the group entered the boundary of Cangzhou, this night Ji Ning was still sleeping, he felt a danger coming from his head, Ji Ning reacted in a timely manner, got up directly from the bed, grabbed the dagger under the pillow to protect himself, and before he could say anything, he felt that the person above his head seemed to fly away.

When Ji Ning was wondering who it was, someone knocked on the window twice, and he saw a figure outside.

"Who?" Ji Ning asked in a low voice.

"Me." The answer from the outside was very simple, Ji Ning heard the sound of Nalan blowing snow, opened the window, and Nalan blew snow in from outside.

Although Nalan Blowing Snow also likes to walk at night, Ji Ning is sure that the person on the roof before is not Nalan Blowing Snow, because Nalan Blowing Snow's martial arts are obviously higher than those who come, and Ji Ning should be more than one person who listens to the voice.

"What's the situation?" Ji Ning didn't go to light the light, the black light was blind, Ji Ning asked.

At this time, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and there were basically no people in sight, and even if the two were facing each other, they couldn't see each other's faces clearly. Nalan blew snow and said: "Someone came over just now, I followed them, it was to the post station, they seem to have a bad plan!" ”

Ji Ning thought to himself that this investigation was really simple and clear, since he was wearing a night suit and walking on the roof of the house, there must be a bad intention. Ji Ning thought to himself: "This explanation is really dispensable, do you want to say this?" ”

"What are the characteristics of those people?" Ji Ning asked.

"Dressed in night clothes, there were three people, it seemed to be men, what they were saying along the way, I couldn't hear clearly, and I didn't dare to get too close so as not to be discovered by them!" Nalan blowing slopes.

"Hmm." Ji Ning nodded, "What about people?" ”

"People...... Let's go, I didn't go with you, let's see if you're okay! Nalan Fuxue said, and really looked Ji Ning up and down, as if to determine whether Ji Ning was "in trouble".

Ji Ning raised his hand and said: "Don't alarm people first, let's go out and have a look, depending on the situation, the target of these people, even if it is not me, it is someone around the post station, it is definitely not an ordinary grievance, it may involve disputes between the court and the rivers and lakes." If the matter has nothing to do with us, try not to care, and see the situation clearly first. ”

"Okay." Nalan Chuixue has absolute trust in Ji Ning at this time. == (Important notice of this site: Please use the free APP of this site, no ads, no errors, fast updates, members synchronize the bookshelf, please pay attention to the WeChat public account appxsyd (press and hold three seconds to copy) to download the free reader!!
