Sun Ning carefully looked at the people around He Qing, and there was a hint of approval in his eyes.

This is a man in his thirties, full of haggards, who obviously suffered a lot at the hands of the bandits of the Black Wolf Village.

But even so, he still didn't act too flustered, and he could still look at Sun Ning in parallel at this time, as if he was still guessing his identity.

This kind of unfazed mind alone is better than the vast majority of people in the world.

"What's your name and why are you being held here?" Sun Ning finally asked.

"In Xia Shen Zhou, the people of the capital. I had just returned to Ning with my wife, but I was robbed by these bandits in the middle of the road. I only had time to let my wife escape, but I fell into the hands of thieves. ”

The so-called Guining means that a married woman returns to her parents' home.

"Looks like you're still a reader?" Seeing that he replied in such a polite manner, Sun Ning had already judged his identity, and asked with a smile, "Do you have merit and fame, and become an official?" ”

These words were exchanged for a wry smile from Shen Zhou: "I learned lowly in the lower ranks, and I failed to rank in repeated attempts, let alone entering the court as an official, and I didn't even succeed in the exam." ”

Sun Ning let out an "oh", and didn't continue to dwell on it, but said: "That's nothing, anyway, now that even the imperial court has been overthrown, it doesn't matter if you have an official body or not." ”

"You...... What did you say? Shen Zhou's eyes widened, his face full of horror and incredulity, which formed a strong contrast with his previous calmness.

"I said that the Dayue Imperial Court no longer exists, and even Luoyang, the capital division, has been broken by the rebel army......"

"How is this possible!" Shen Zhou screamed even more, got up, and stared at Sun Ning, "How dare you say such a thing?" Who the hell are you? ”

"My surname is Sun Mingning, I was originally the emperor of the Dayue court, but now I am just a dead country-the king, just a fish that slipped through the net." Sun Ning once again identified himself.

"Ahh

Shen Zhou was shocked at first, then suspicious, looked at Sun Ninglai carefully, and then turned his gaze again, and saw the outfits of Yan Hu and the others, and the doubts in his eyes were really replaced by huge panic: "You...... Are you serious? Jingshi Luoyang has really been broken by rebellion? ”

"What am I lying to you about? If you ask them, they also know the situation in Luoyang. Sun Ning pointed to Deng Hei and the others next to him who were full of uneasiness.

These people immediately nodded: "Yes, there was news more than ten days ago, saying that Luoyang had been broken by the army of King Pingtian, and we had thought about rushing to take refuge." ”

As soon as the words came out, they realized that something was wrong, and looked at Sun Ning carefully, but they didn't see any unhappiness from him, so they relaxed a little.

After Shen Zhou's body was shocked again, his face showed even more worry: "Then my family ......"

He is from Luoyang, and now that Luoyang is broken, there will inevitably be chaos, and the safety of his family is not easy to say.

No wonder in the past two months, I haven't seen my family come to redeem myself, obviously because of the series of chaos, so that the family can't take care of themselves at all.

Immediately, he thought of it again, and stared at Sun Ning again: "You...... Is it really Your Majesty today? ”

"A king of the fallen country, even the target of the public, will anyone still pretend to be such an identity to ask for trouble?"

These words were reasonable, which made Shen Zhou believe Sun Ning for a few points, but at the same time, more questions arose in his heart: "Then why did you appear in the bandits' den deep in this mountain?" ”

"This has its own reasoning." Sun Ning didn't say much about his plans, just stared at him and said, "I only ask you, are you willing to follow me around and do your best to repeat my great crossing of the country, so as to glorify the lintel and leave a name in history?" ”

Now Sun Ning is around him, counting the newly subdued Black Wolf Village, there are one or two thousand available people, and Yan Hu and others are also so-so in terms of command and operation, but there are fewer talents to manage logistics and give advice.

Although Sun Ning is only a martial artist, he also knows that attaching equal importance to civil and military forces is the foundation for the stability and development of forces.

So after realizing that Shen Zhou might be a talent and a scholar, he started to solicit, after all, he is now in a blue rut and lacks everything, and Dora is one person.

Shen Zhou was stunned for a moment, the dignified emperor actually personally recruited himself?

It is false to say that he is not impressed, after all, he has studied hard for many years and has participated in many imperial examinations.

So for what? Isn't it for the sake of selling the emperor's house?

It's just that I lacked some luck after all in the imperial examination, and I failed to do so repeatedly.

On weekdays, he still complains to his relatives and friends that his talents cannot be displayed, and the court has no knowledge of people.

Now that the opportunity is really in front of him, it is still the personal invitation of the most valuable emperor, isn't this the opportunity he dreamed of, to get ahead?

It's just that when the words came to his lips, Shen Zhou hesitated a little again. Because there is one thing he cares about most now, that is, the safety of his family.

After knowing that the city of Luoyang was broken and the rebels had overthrown the imperial court, he was really worried about the situation of his wife and children, as well as his parents and relatives.

Therefore, he didn't say the last word he promised, but just looked at Sun Ning with an embarrassed face.

At the same time, under the Crouching Tiger Peak, a tall man with a proud expression and a tiger's back was striding upward.

After being blocked by the people guarding the mountain, he raised his head and said: "Go and pass the word to your village master, just say that I Bai Xiuye is ordered by the Xu village master of Feihu Village to see him to discuss important matters!" ”
