Zhou Cheng gave gifts, but he didn't show up himself, but just asked the people under his hands to send things, which seemed very humble and didn't want people to know.

From this point, Ji Ning knew that Zhou Cheng would do things, and thought to himself that it was no wonder that a person with low knowledge could become an important figure in the Western character school and even the Chongwangfu system.

Song Shanqian smiled: "Yongning, how is it?" I didn't treat you badly this time, did I? It's right to tell you to come to this kind of literary meeting, it's definitely worth the trip! Since these gifts were given to you by Zhou Dangjia, they are also what you deserve, and I don't make any thoughts, in a few days, maybe there will be any literary meeting of the Western character school, and I will invite you to come over then! ”

Ji Ning smiled bitterly: "Actually, you don't have to be so ......"

"How come, you are a friend I know, and I will definitely not treat you badly in these matters, otherwise what would I become? Haha, Yongning, you follow me, just participate in more such cultural meetings, maybe you are still a little nervous today, okay, it's not too early, I should go back, the only regret today is that there is no gift from dogs and horses, otherwise you won't have much fun......

Ji Ning can probably guess that the so-called "sound and lust" gifts, in fact, are women, in this kind of literary meeting, it may be possible to be given a woman to relieve fatigue, in this era, if only silver is given, it is a very low-level bribery method, sound and color are basic gifts, and there will even be some special gifts.

There is nothing that can't be done, only the unexpected, and even the men who send it.

After Song Shanqian's carriage went far away, Ji Ning also asked Li Lu to drive to the direction of the house, but in fact, he didn't do anything to go back to the house, he had to find a way to meet Zhou Cheng for a while, because only by finding the weakness around King Chong could he have the opportunity to deal with King Chong, Zhou Cheng seemed to be very sophisticated, but there would always be limitations in thinking on some issues, Ji Ning was ready to take advantage of Zhou Cheng's weakness, and planned to pry open the iron-clad defense around King Chong.

……

……

Ji Ning asked Li Lu to stop the carriage less than a mile away from his mansion, and it didn't take long for him to see a carriage coming this way in the distance.

The carriage did not stop, and the person who drove the carriage did not seem to see Ji Ning beside him, the carriage went straight away, Ji Ning looked at the carriage, and there was no one in it, it seemed to be an empty carriage.

"Someone looking for an opportunity to stalk me?" Ji Ning was thinking about it, and suddenly felt a breath in the distance approaching him, Ji Ning looked up at the direction of the visitor, the person who came didn't hide anything, and appeared directly in front of Ji Ning, it was Shangguan Wan'er.

"Ji Gongzi, didn't you say that you would tell me the detailed plan? Why did you not even enter the door of your house when you came to the door of your house, but thought about things here? When Shangguan Wan'er spoke, her tone was also a bit yin and yang.

Ji Ning said: "It's not that I don't want to go back, it's just that I'm waiting for Miss Shangguan here, and I still haven't decided which plan to use to assassinate the four princes, now I'm waiting for you to come over, just discuss it with you!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er smiled bitterly: "It turns out that Ji Gongzi will also discuss things with others?" ”

There seemed to be a bit of sarcasm in his tone, and he felt that Ji Ning was a little arbitrary in doing things, but Ji Ning himself would never go with Shangguan Wan'er to do this kind of calculation, and he would not be able to speak his tongue.

"I want you to help me meet someone, that is, the great housekeeper of the Western character school, Zhou Cheng, who opened an eternal house in the capital!" Ji Ning said.

Shangguan Wan'er frowned and said, "You also know this person?" ”

"What, you're investigating this person too?" Ji Ning looked at Shangguan Wan'er and asked.

Shangguan Wan'er sighed lightly: "The trouble in my division has a certain relationship with this person, this person is a supporter behind King Chong, I don't know how terrible what he does, but I know one thing, that is, this person also has martial arts, and he is very vigilant, I have followed him several times before, and he was almost discovered, this person has risen very quickly by King Chong's side, and recently he has been helping King Chong do some unsightly things...... How could Ji Gongzi be entangled with him? ”

Ji Ning smiled and said: "I just want to take advantage of his weaknesses to attack King Chong, maybe you think I am a little naïve to do this, but let me tell you, I have my own reasons for doing this, King Chong has done things in the past few years, and the strategists around him are all cautious, but Zhou Cheng is involved with you Jianghu people, as well as local schools, and he also opened an underground gambling house in the capital, the more people who have a wide range of friends, the easier it is to have flaws around them, maybe Miss Shangguan doesn't understand this truth, I remind you below!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er glared at Ji Ning and didn't say anything, but obviously she was a little dissatisfied with Ji Ning's contempt.

"Let's go!" Shangguan Wan'er seemed to be angry, said a word, and took Ji Ning to Zhou Cheng's underground gambling house, that is, the direction of Gu Zhai.

……

……

Seeing that she was about to arrive at Eternal Zhai, Shangguan Wan'er suddenly said: "Ji Gongzi is going like this, not afraid of being recognized by the surname Zhou?" ”

Ji Ning thought for a while and said, "It's a pity that I don't know the trick of disguise, I wonder if Miss Shangguan can help?" ”

Shangguan Wan'er shook her head with a wry smile and said: "I don't have the tools to disguise you at hand, even if I want to find it, it will be very troublesome, and I don't know where to look for you in the dead of night, it's better to be simpler now, stick a beard for you, maybe no one will know you!" ”

Ji Ning didn't think that sticking to his beard was a good way to avoid danger, but now he had no other way, and he could only get first-hand information by entering the ancient Zhai first, and he could only follow Shangguan Wan'er's advice first, and use the simple disguise method that Shangguan Wan'er had used before to glue a beard on his face.

In this way, Ji Ning looked a lot rougher, and instantly changed from a white-faced scholar to a Hu merchant from the north, Shangguan Wan'er saw Ji Ning's face, and smiled with satisfaction: "I don't know, I thought it was a fur businessman!" ”

Ji Ning said: "If you think it's okay, if you expose yourself, I can't save you, but I know that even if Zhou Cheng finds me now, he won't dare to do anything to me, my status as a trainee is a good protection for me!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er nodded and agreed.

Ji Ning said again: "This time, you and I help each other, you want to do things for the master, I want to use Zhou Cheng to open the gap around King Chong, this time is a short cooperation, but in cooperation, you must obey my dispatch, you can't act willfully, if you insist on going your own way, then I won't cooperate with you again, and I won't even provide you with any protection!" ”

"Okay!" Shangguan Wan'er looked at Ji Ning with a resolute gaze this time, as if to say, who rarely let you take refuge.
