Chapter 1228: Collaborating with a traitor

After Zhang Hua arranged the disposal of the big family in the morning, he hurried to see Ji Ning, but he wanted to ask for credit from Ji Ning, the "old gentleman".

And Zhang Hua also heard about the "show" arranged for Ji Ning last night, because Honglan and Ning Xin were from the Restoration Army and were destroyed, he was also afraid that something would happen to Ji Ning, so he hurried over to verify it.

When Zhang Hua arrived at the meeting place in person, he was relieved after he saw Ji Ning standing there in good standing.

Zhang Hua saluted and said: "It was a poor arrangement, and the old gentleman was frightened last night." ”

"The woman you arranged is really a little different, you actually want to use poisoning to harm the old man, but fortunately, the old man found out in time, but the people of the Restoration Army are indeed masters, and they can save those two women under the nose of the old man!" Ji Ning looked very angry, he had to be angry, because last night was equivalent to Zhang Hua arranging a "good show", and now he must show an attitude of angering Zhang Hua.

Zhang Hua said: "Old gentleman, please forgive me, there was a place to entertain the old gentleman last night, and I must treat the old gentleman well, so that the old gentleman can have a good look at the Zhong Lingyuxiu of the Jiangnan woman!" ”

Ji Ning raised his hand to interrupt Zhang Hua's words, and said, "Needless to say, what you let you do, how did you do?" ”

"Mr. Hui's words, according to your request, the people of the main big families have been released, as for the two million taels of silver, they will be collected in these two days, and I did hear some rumors in Xia, saying that the prince of Chongwang and the county lord of Huaizhu are about to arrive in Jinling City, and they have already sent someone to intercept ......" Zhang Hua said with a smug smile on his face.

Ji Ning knew Zhang Hua's danger, and he also knew the vicious psychology in Zhang Hua's heart.

He thought to himself: "If Zhang Hua succeeds, then Zhao Yuanqi and Zhao Yuanxuan's brother and sister will be more than lucky, and Zhang Hua will most likely kill this brother and sister!" ”

"The old man said that you must not kill anyone, and you will obey the old man's words, right?" Ji Ning said sharply.

Zhang Hua said with a smile: "Of course, people naturally have to hand it over to the old gentleman to dispose of...... Today, the big families have returned home one after another, and money is also being sent in a steady stream, should the old gentleman also fulfill his promise so that he can be more sure-footed in his heart? ”

"Of course!" Ji Ning said, "The old man will not do anything to break his word and get fat, the old man has already found a way to inform His Majesty that in this land south of the Yangtze River, there is a talent like you, which can be requisitioned and transferred back to the imperial court...... In fact, it's just a formality, after you return to the capital, you will be promoted to the core hub of the court in the shortest possible time, and then you will also become the old man's right-hand man, and in the future, you can also become a courtier above 10,000 people under one person, which is much better than you staying in the restoration army! ”

"Thank you, Mr. Lao, it seems that Mr. Lao is doing great things, all of which are seeking stability, and I have to learn more from Mr. Lao in the future!" Zhang Hua said with a flattering attitude.

Ji Ning raised his hand to interrupt Zhang Hua's words and said, "Since you have already dealt with the affairs of the big family, the old man still has something for you to do next...... The old man is going to uproot some of the strongholds of the Restoration Army in the Jiangnan area, will you help the old man? ”

"This ......" Zhang Hua looked very embarrassed.

Ji Ning said: "Of course, the old man will not leak it, these things are your doing...... You should also understand that the person who the two women were going to kill yesterday was actually not the old man, but you, who was just met by the old man by chance, if you still want to help those two women now, then you are a little ignorant! ”

"Yes, yes!" Zhang Hua nodded and said, "Thanks to the old gentleman's help yesterday, otherwise I might have been killed by those two!" ”

Ji Ning sneered and said: "Even your own subordinates can't control it well, this is where you lose points in front of the old man, what the old man needs is a person who can do great things, do you understand what to do?" ”

Zhang Hua was still very ruthless before, but at this time he was like a villain who was a fly camp dog, he said: "As long as the old gentleman is promoted, he will definitely make a big deal in the next, since the old gentleman wants to uproot the stronghold of the Restoration Army, he will definitely help each other in secret, and after it is completed, he also hopes to enter the court and continue to work for the old man and the new emperor!" ”

Ji Ning actually hated a traitor like Zhang Hua, but now that he was forced by the situation, he could only use this villain, and there was nothing he could do.

"You go back first, get together your two million taels of silver, you want to give it to the Restoration Army, and the old man will not stop you, but the old man thinks that it is better for you to keep the two million taels of silver yourself, how many men and horses and descendants can be cultivated? Why bother to cheapen the people of the Restoration Army? Ji Ning reminded.

Zhang Hua was stunned, thinking that the people in the Restoration Army were going to kill him, he knew that what the old gentleman in front of him reminded was not unreasonable.

He said: "The old gentleman is right, if you do things for the Restoration Army, you will be foolish, the Restoration Army will be killed, and you must be able to make the right choice in the future, and you will be ready to serve the old gentleman, and maybe you can help the old gentleman achieve great things, at that time...... The old gentleman can ascend the throne as emperor, under your deputy! ”

Ji Ning shook his head and said: "Being an emperor, the old man never thought about it, with the old man's age, what is the use of being an emperor?" If at that time, the people who are not sure to fight are you and me, if you really want someone to be the emperor, the old man will not take the initiative to take it, if you want to be the emperor, you can be the emperor! ”

When Zhang Hua heard this, there was a faint joy on his face.

Zhang Hua said: "The old gentleman is so beautiful, he likes the most beautiful women in the world, so he must find such a beauty for the old gentleman and send the beauty to the old gentleman's arms, so that the old gentleman can send love to the landscape, so isn't it fast?" ”

"It's too early to say this, you go back to deal with the affairs of the big family first, and the old man has to arrange to deal with the Restoration Army, and the old man doesn't want to see you today......" Ji Ning said.

Zhang Hua hurriedly asked, "Where can I meet the old gentleman later?" ”

As he spoke, he was still looking at the beauty beside Ji Ning, that is, Nalan Blowing Snow, he didn't quite understand the way to change women around Ji Ning, and when he saw Nalan Blowing Snow, it was actually a little strange.

Ji Ning would not let him recognize Nalan Blowing Snow, after all, Nalan Blowing Snow had followed "Ji Ning" to appear in the prefect's yamen.

Ji Ning said: "The old man will come to you, you just have to obey the order...... If you can deal with this matter, the old man will rest assured that Jiangnan will be handed over to you, and the military power of the Jiangnan battalion will also be controlled by you later, and you don't have to worry about the people of the Restoration Army posing any threat to you, you can walk sideways in the Jiangnan territory! ”
