Chapter 161: The Big Thing
Register] members, no pop-up ads green reading.
The last crescent moon finally sank completely, and the east was white, starting from the first rooster crow, one after another, the city and the countryside heard each other, like an alarm clock, ringing into a film.
As soon as Ying Ning's figure entered the room, he saw Chen Jianchen sitting behind the desk, holding a pen in his hand, and the tip of the pen had not moved, he was sitting under the lamp like this, as if he was waiting for Ying Ning to come back.
In fact, it was a wait.
"Childe ......"
Like a little girl who has done something wrong, Ying Ning lowered her head slightly, rubbing her horned shirt with one hand.
"It's back. β
Chen Jianchen's voice was very calm, just like Ying Ning didn't venture to go to prison, but just went out to visit the door.
"Hmm. β
Seeing that Chen Jianchen had no sense of blame, Ying Ning quietly spit out his tongue, walked over, and asked, "What is the son writing?"
And the inkstone placed on the side, the ink has not been polished.
Chen Jianchen put down his pen: "The scholar is not here, and he can't ask for words." β
Ying Ning's heart suddenly became sweet, and she said, "Childe, I'll help you polish the ink." "Raise your sleeves, pick up the ink block, and grind it evenly.
While grinding, he told the process of going to Zhezhou Prison to visit Nie Zhiyuan.
After listening, Chen Jianchen fell into deep thought: by now, he had affirmed in his heart that Nie Zhiyuan had been reduced from an official to a prisoner, and he must have been framed by others.
Since ancient times, the party has fought against differences, and the struggle above the temple has never seen a sword or blood. Three-inch tongue and half-foot pen, but it is often a few points more powerful than a divine weapon, why do you need to see blood when you kill someone?
Chen Jianchen figured out the joints, pulled out the thorn in his heart, and turned to learn Shiwen Bagu, already with a career in mind, to control the best and most powerful tool of "power", but in fact, many things could not be achieved overnight -- the countryside, rivers and lakes, markets, temples, among the four, the knowledge in the temple is the largest, the most profound, and the most elusive.
The word "official" has two mouths and a top hat. However, the hat on the head is actually not easy to wear. How to wear it steadily, how to wear it for a long time, and how to wear it bigger and bigger, are all knowledge.
Chen Jianchen is undoubtedly traversing, but traversing is not omnipotent, no matter in his past or present life, he has never been involved in officialdom, even if he has unparalleled knowledge, but when it comes to the core of the officialdom, he is still a layman, and many things have to be learned from scratch, from bit by bit.
His personality has a scholarly spirit and a chivalrous style, but he is actually not suitable for a career. At that time, Daoist Qingyun saw through him, so he planted a seed first, thinking that after Chen Jianchen wandered in the red dust, experienced ups and downs, and suffered all the vicissitudes of life, then the corners of his head would be dulled, and his heart would be smoothed, and it would be easy to see through the red dust and escape into the Daomen......"
But now, Chen Jianchen is just a talent, he has not yet become a master, and he is not qualified to participate in the palace examination......
Nie Zhiyuan lost his position in the dumping and became a prisoner, about the inside process inside, Chen Jianchen may not have to know more about it, because even if he understands, it will not help. For him, the problem that cannot be solved with power is with superpowers. However, through Nie Zhiyuan's experience, it can be guessed that the general trend of some imperial courts tends to slander the loyal and good, the traitorous ministers are in charge, and a series of laws and decrees harmful to the people's livelihood are promulgated, and after that, it will be a chaotic situation.
Could it be that troubled times are inevitable?
When it comes to the troubled times, Chen Jianchen remembered the extremely harsh world environment on the screen: in the palace, sitting high on the top was "an official who loves money like his life and has no money and does not ...... promoted to the court......γ...... In the city government, there are so-called "law enforcers" who come and go with big knives and spears in hand, arresting people everywhere and killing innocents indiscriminately...... And outside the countryside, ghosts cry wolves, and the wind blows, and they are demons and fairies who eat people and don't spit out bones......
This is the troubled times.
People in troubled times are not as good as Taiping dogs, Chen Jianchen is in it, and he can't be allowed not to be vigilant and prepare early.
"Childe, what should I do next?"
Ying Ning asked again.
Chen Jianchen gently tapped the five fingers of his left hand on the table, and said in a deep voice: "According to what Master Nie said, maybe he doesn't know his daughter's whereabouts. β
"How is this possible?"
Ying Ning's eyes widened.
Chen Jianchen sighed: "Nothing is impossible. Lord Nie is a serious offender in the imperial court, and it is uncertain whether Nie Xiaofu can go in to visit the prison, since this is the case, their father and daughter will naturally lose contact. Put yourself in the ground, if I were Nie Xiaofu, I would definitely look for people everywhere to find relationships at the beginning, spend some money, and see if there is any hope of rescuing my father. But as far as I know, even if the Nie family has connections, it will not be in Zhezhou, and in addition, Lord Nie is honest in the palace, where is there any money to spare? Therefore, these ways will not work, with Nie Xiaojiao's character, she is most likely to rob the prison!"
"Prison robbery?"
Ying Ning was a little puzzled.
Chen Jianchen said slowly: "Nie Xiaozhu has been taught by strangers since he was a child, and he knows martial arts. β
Ying Ning sighed: "But with Sister Xiaoqian alone, she can't rob the prison at all?"
"She's smart, intelligent, and doesn't want to be reckless. But there is also a possibility, that is, Lord Nie will be released into Beijing, so that Nie Xiaoqi will rob people halfway!"
Speaking of this, Chen Jianchen slapped his thigh: "Yes, it's very likely that this is the case." β
βAccording to the habits of the imperial court, Nie Zhiyuan is not an ordinary prisoner, and there is a good chance that he will be detained to the capital for the trial of the three divisions.
This opportunity is also an opportunity for Nie Xiaodebt.
Among them, Ying Ning didn't understand it, so she could only listen quietly.
Chen Jianchen closed his eyes, calmed down the turmoil in his heart, and gently knocked his fingers on the table, and only after a long time did he open his eyes. At this time, Ying Ning had already sharpened the ink, so he picked up the pen, drank the ink, and wrote on the paper.
Ying Ning watched carefully, and saw that Gongzi wrote a poem: Ten miles of Pinghu is full of frost, and every inch of lovesickness is sorrowful;
She read it word by word, and after reading, she held her chin in her hand, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly: "Childe, your poem is so profound." I really can't understand why Chen Jianchen wrote such a "love poem" at this time, "it doesn't fit the scene at all, and it doesn't match the tone."
Chen Jianchen laughed: "This is a poem I gave to an individual before. β
Gifted to someone?
Ying Ning's mind flashed, and she suddenly thought of something, and she was already seven or eight points sure, but she didn't say it directly, let alone ask why.
Chen Jianchen said slowly: "Actually, at that time, I didn't know why I wrote such a poem for her, and it wasn't very suitable, but I still wrote it." β
Ying Ning pursed her red lips, feeling that Childe's words were a little strange and a little contradictory. This one, especially the last sentence, is clearly a confessional love poem. Could it be that the situation at that time was "the falling flowers are intentional, and the flowing water is ruthless?"
The little fox quickly used his brain, constantly fantasizing about supplementing the situation at the time, and in the end, he actually made up a twists and turns with "a poor scholar pursuing the rich lady's ......" as the main core.
"Hee-hee, the son is not a small thief......"
At this time, the sky finally dawned, the sun rose in the east, and the morning glow was ten thousand flowers. Everyone else in the courtyard got up and began to wash.
In the next two days, Chen Jianchen and Ying Ning acted separately and almost searched the city of Zhezhou, but they did not find any trace of Nie Xiaoguo, and only found some clues in the nunnery called Baiyun Nunnery in the city mansion, saying that Nie Xiaozhu had spent three days in the nunnery a few days ago, but he never came back since.
Calculating the time, it seems that Nie Xiaochuan has been away from Zhejiang for ten days.
At the same time, through inquiry, Chen Jianchen confirmed the news that Nie Zhiyuan was going to be released to Beijing for the trial of the three divisions. This news, the official did not block it, but posted it. However, on the list, the language is unknown, and it is also not announced what Nie Zhiyuan has committed, only Nie Zhiyuan is convicted of "corrupting the law".
Seeing this charge, Chen Jianchen wanted to laugh: The official word is two-mouthed, and it is really not just talking.
Nie Zhiyuan is going to be released from the capital for trial, which creates conditions for Nie Xiaofu to rob the prisoner halfway, so it can also be speculated that if he knows why Nie Xiaofu left Zhezhou, he must go outside to choose a suitable place to start, or to win over people. Because she alone has a success rate, it will never be high.
Lu Xiyu took revenge and dared to hide his sword alone and assassinate the enemy, while Nie Xiaofu did not hesitate to risk the crime of killing his head and robbed the prisoner's car halfway in order to save his father. The behavior of the two women, the women do not let the eyebrows be bearded, they can be called strange women, which is enough to make Chen Jianchen feel admired from the bottom of his heart.
However, in this way, for the worry of Nie Xiaofu's situation, Chen Xiechen couldn't help but take Nie Zhiyuan to Beijing a little more, and the Zhejiang side would never send a few officials to deal with the matter, and would definitely send a team of elite soldiers, and even the black-shirted guards might be dispatched.
As if confirming his thoughts, that night, Chen Jianchen learned a coincidental news from Gu Xuezheng's mouth, that is, the leader of the release of Nie Zhiyuan to Beijing was famous, it was Jiang Yu, the black-shirted guerrilla general!
Jiang Yu was originally in Jiangzhou, and when he wanted to return to Beijing to resume his life, he temporarily received an urgent report from the imperial court that he was going to Zhezhou to release Nie Zhiyuan to Beijing for trial.
βAt that time, he was in Jiangzhou, as a student in Jiangzhou, Gu Xichao invited Jiang Yu to drink a few times, and he had some friendship. So after Jiang Yu arrived in Zhezhou, he knew it as soon as possible, and immediately went to the Zhezhou Mansion to talk to Jiang Yu about wine......
Chen Jianchen has a little understanding of Jiang Yu's personality, and knows that he is upright and upright, and he will not make a trick halfway;
It's not a small matter......
Chen Jianchen shook his head and smiled bitterly, in fact, for him: The world's first talent competition will officially start tomorrow, isn't it also a big deal?
A gentleman loves money and takes it from it, and a gentleman seeks fame and gets it right.
This world's first talent competition is a rare opportunity for many people, and the opportunity to show their talents is also true for Chen Jianchen.
