Chapter 1157: Mercenary
Yu Ling and Lin Juan'er are kind-hearted, although Yu Ling will have some strange thoughts, but she is also dedicated to Ji Ning, and will not mess up Ji Ning's seniority for personal gain.
Ji Ning can also feel the obsession of the two little girls with him, and with the company of the two little girls along the way, he can be happier.
Ji Ning didn't get off the boat for dinner, and waited until after nightfall, he asked people to prepare the boat ashore, this time he was going to meet the people who contacted the local government, and the things involved were also about the Chongwang Mansion in the capital, in order to avoid the family members on the boat being attacked and disturbed, Ji Ning would not let the boat dock, even so, along the way, you still have to be careful of water ghosts and some river pirates, this is not an uncommon profession in the Great Yong Dynasty.
After Ji Ning went ashore, he found the old house where he met, and at this time, he followed Ji Ning only Nalan Blowing Snow who had been waiting on the shore, and after Nalan Blowing Snow followed Ji Ning to the old mansion, with Nalan Blowing Snow's vigilance, it seemed that he had a premonition that there was some peace here.
Nalan Blowing Snow said: "It seems that there is danger here, there is such a killing here, it is likely that there are people hidden, and there is not even the sound of birds, beasts and insects chirping around, obviously because they are afraid of people, so they dare not make a sound." ”
"Hmm." Ji Ning just nodded slightly and did not comment, at this moment, suddenly the sound of a flute was heard in the distance, Ji Ning also sensed the danger, Nalan Chuixue looked into the distance, the long sword in her hand was clenched tightly, and it was obvious that she was also a little nervous here.
Just when there was wind and grass in the distance, Nalan Fuxue was about to draw her sword, but Ji Ning pressed her sword back, Ji Ning said: "There's nothing to worry about." ”
After speaking, Ji Ning walked over into the distance first, and the voice of the contact joint also came from there: "The secret words are a little white." ”
Ji Ning didn't say anything, just walked to the front, Nalan Chuixue asked, "This is black talk, you don't have to say anything?" ”
Ji Ning said: "My identity is known to them, now they are just showing me their identity, I don't need to show them anything, you don't have to worry, if there is any danger, you can escape by yourself." ”
"What are you talking about?" Nalan Fuxue frowned and said, "Will I put you down and go by myself?" ”
Obviously, at this time, Nalan Chuixue also found a sense of belonging, that is, Ji Ning, which made Nalan Chuixue feel a sense of home, she was reluctant to give Ji Ning this feeling to her, so she would not give up the happiness in front of her, so she would protect Ji Ning, even if it was at the cost of her life.
"Is anyone coming?" Ji Ning walked over and asked.
Immediately two black-clothed people walked out from behind the grass, the identity of the black-clothed people made Nalan Fuxue feel uneasy, because these two people looked like Jianghu people, they were very fast, and they almost couldn't hear any breath, obviously their internal strength was very strong, she didn't know if she could protect Ji Ning under the strong attack of these two, and even if she wanted to escape, she didn't seem to have the necessary confidence.
"Your Excellency, we have brought news from the capital, and we want to tell you, please here." A man in black walked over and said.
Ji Ning raised his hand and said: "It's better to talk in the old house, it's always a little unsafe outside, have you found anyone following you along the way?" ”
"Your Excellency rest assured, we will carefully protect ourselves, will not let our whereabouts be discovered, you just rest assured, we do things are principled, as long as you can afford the money, we will definitely help you do things well, this is our principle, not to mention, you just let us pass on the news, not to the point of killing people and goods, so as not to be attacked!" The people who came also seemed to be a little slack in this regard, only Ji Ning knew how dangerous it was in front of him, because he knew what kind of enemy he was facing, and it was not as simple as these people said.
Nalan Chuixue only then knew that the person in front of him was doing things for people with silver, to be precise, he was a mercenary, and Ji Ning himself didn't have too many people on hand, there was no way, in order to accurately get the news of the capital after leaving the capital, or let people pass on the news in secret, he could only find these mercenaries who recognized money but did not recognize people, which was also the most beneficial to Ji Ning.
Entering the old mansion, Nalan Blowing Snow has been protecting Ji Ning's side, and there are only two people who come, obviously these two people are just coming out, and there must be more than two people from the other party, which is also the mercenary is afraid of being blackened, so he simply sent some more people to observe in secret, and also to provide protection in the dark.
The man in black before said with a fixed color: "Your Excellency, we have investigated the situation in the capital according to your instructions, and now we know that the emperor has issued a decree to forgive the remnants of the Chongwang Mansion, from now on, the people of the Chongwang Mansion will become civilians, and they will not have the privileges of the royal family, and now they will be gradually sent out of the capital, as for their next move, we are still investigating, do you also want to continue to investigate?" ”
Ji Ning frowned and said, "Is the news accurate?" ”
"Of course it's accurate, the information we investigated is definitely the most accurate in the capital, in the capital, there is no one who will be more accurate than us in investigating the intelligence, if you don't believe it, I'm afraid you won't ask us to investigate these things, right?" The man in black looked very proud.
Ji Ning smiled and nodded: "It is indeed very reassuring to you, this is also the reason why I am looking for you to do things, but many things still have to be investigated clearly, now I want to add silver to do one thing, go back and tell your master, I now want to ensure the safety of the prince of Chongwang and the lord of Huaizhu, this is 10,000 taels of silver, if it is not enough, come to me again in the next step, if you can't complete it, then return my silver, and increase the compensation." ”
"This ......" The man in black was obviously a little worried, and Ji Ning's condition could be said to be very harsh.
Ji Ning said: "What, you can't finish it?" If I can't do it, I'll find someone else to complete it. ”
"No, we'll go back and inform the boss immediately, don't worry, we will protect the lives of the brothers and sisters in Chongwangfu, but there is always a deadline, right?" Although the man's tone was very affirmative, he was actually a little worried.
Ji Ning said: "The period of protection I let you protect is three months, after three months, whether you will be allowed to protect it, that is another matter, for the time being, they will stay in the capital, but after a month or two, they may set off from the capital to Jiangnan, and you will also protect along the way." ”
"Okay!" The man in black nodded in agreement, "Your Excellency, you want to protect the brothers and sisters of the Chongwang Mansion, I don't know what the purpose is?" Are you from the Chongwang Mansion? ”
Ji Ning smiled: "There are a lot of things that shouldn't be asked, you'd better not ask, and I won't say it, that's all!" ”
