Langya, five hundred years ago, Langya was not called Langya, but called Chengcheng.

The reason why it is called Wancheng is because it is rich in white jade, which has a soft appearance and a long color, and the main reason for the high price of this white jade is demand.

Whenever Dafeng's meritorious dignitaries and royal nobles died, they would put a delicate half-fingered jade in their mouths, and this half-fingered jade was made of white jade, and it was for this reason that this place was named Yuncheng, which means the city of jade in the mouth of the deceased.

At that time, when the southern commerce was not fully formed, relying on the sale of Bai Ziyu, Yuncheng became the leading big city in the lower reaches of the Tear Luo River at that time.

Later, Yangzhou was established, and the city was set as the capital, but the word Yun means the jade in the mouth of the deceased, if it means the capital of a state, it is somewhat unlucky, so the Yangzhou pastor at that time changed the city to Langya, Langya, the meaning of beautiful jade, are beautiful jade, but the expression can be very different.

Since then, the name of Langya has been handed down, and because of the development of science in Dafeng is widely known, now Langya is the holy land of science, the gateway of Yangzhou, has a decisive impact on the Jiangnan region.

In Guangling, Ning Xiaochuan was saying goodbye to Yu Xining and others, and this time he went to Langya, he could not go as Ning Xiaochuan, the son of Liguo Gong, but with the help of Cheng Yuhe, he went to Langya as a disciple of science.

In Yangzhou now, the best identity is a disciple of science, Yu Xining looked at Ning Xiaochuan and said worriedly, "Is it really okay for you to go alone?" What if my identity is revealed? ”

Ning Xiaochuan smiled lightly, "Don't worry, I have the bottom in my heart, even if my identity is exposed, why don't they dare to do anything to me?" ”

"Don't say it, just the assassination you have encountered along the way, if something really happens, the gain will outweigh the loss." Han Zhan said cautiously beside him.

As soon as the words fell, Liu En glanced at Han Zhan angrily, "You are really good at talking." ”

"Forehead ......"

Ning Xiaochuan smiled helplessly, "Okay, you guys will take care of Jiujiu in Guangling and wait for me to come back." ”

"Young master, be careful all the way." Su Su's worried brows furrowed.

Nie Hongyi next to him slowly bowed his head, "Childe, if there is no news of you within a month, I will kill Langya, and even if I fight for my life, I will save you." ”

"Don't worry, I won't give you this chance, it's not too early, I'm leaving." Ning Xiaochuan smiled with relief, looked up at the sky, and left with his head bowed.

At the door of the inn, Wang Pingyue had been waiting for a long time, and after seeing Ning Xiaochuan come out, he arched his hand and said: "Ning Gongzi, I am under the order of the master to escort you to Langya, and be responsible for your safety in Langya." ”

Ning Xiaochuan nodded slightly, "Then there will be labor." ”

"It's a new outfit, please change into it." With that, Wang Pingyue took out the light blue moire robe of the science disciple and handed it to Ning Xiaochuan.

Ning Xiaochuan took the clothes and said with a light smile, "If you have a heart, let's go." ”

It was only a three-day journey from Guangling to Langya, and although the two sides were tense at the border, they were extremely polite to see the disciples of science, after all, neither side wanted to offend the scholars.

……

Three days later, Ning Xiaochuan and others finally came to Langya, and when they first entered Langya, they saw that the sergeants at the gate of the city were carefully checking every person entering and leaving.

Ning Xiaochuan was not very worried about this, because with the talisman of a physicist, he would be fine no matter what.

Soon, Wang Pingyue came to the city gate with a group of science disciples, and the sergeant at the gate stretched out his hand to stop Wang Pingyue.

Wang Pingyue bowed slightly, stepped forward and negotiated, "Under Wang Pingyue, a disciple of Jiangyang Xuegong Science, he came to Langya to get the scriptures at the order of his master. ”

The sergeant at the door frowned slightly, looked behind him casually, and saw that there were a group of white-faced scholars behind him, and he was not too embarrassed, and waved his hand, "Okay, let's go in." ”

Wang Pingyue bowed his hand slightly, turned around and beckoned Ning Xiaochuan and the others to enter the city, but when Ning Xiaochuan entered the city, he casually glanced at the sergeant beside him, and this look made him almost unable to hold back the anger in his heart, because on the sergeant's wrist, there was a unique flowing cloud ornament in Zhongfu.

Zhongfu!

These two words suddenly appeared in Ning Xiaochuan's mind, in this way, Bai Xiangting must have a problem, and the current situation in Yangzhou can definitely be the handiwork of the royal family!

The moment he saw the Zhongfu flowing cloud ornament, Ning Xiaochuan's thoughts instantly became smooth, this had already exposed Zhongfu before he saw Bai Xiangting, so you can imagine what Langya is like now.

Ning Xiaochuan even had a bold guess that it was not Bai Xiangting but Zhongfu who was sitting in Langya now.

It seems that Gao Xian is playing with Bai Xiangting, but in fact he is playing with His Majesty today, this game of chess is quite big, and at the same time, Ning Xiaochuan also understands how ruthless the royal family can be for power, and even his blood relatives will not let go, which is really vicious.

Walking into Langya, Wang Pingyue saw that Ning Xiaochuan's face was a little wrong, and quietly walked to his side, "Is there something on your mind, don't worry, you have entered Langya, and those sergeants will no longer embarrass you." ”

Wang Pingyue's words interrupted Ning Xiaochuan's thoughts, and Ning Xiaochuan smiled awkwardly, "Thank you, I didn't expect the physicist to have such a great influence in Langya." ”

"It's just a balance of power between the two sides, and when this balance is broken one day, the situation will be different." Wang Pingyue smiled bitterly, "Let's go, I'll take you to rest first, and I'll take you to meet a distinguished guest tomorrow." ”

"Distinguished guest, have you ever seen Lord Bai directly?" Ning Xiaochuan asked.

Wang Pingyue smiled and shook his head, "Of course not, it can be said that it is difficult to see Lord Bai in Langya, and the distinguished guest I am talking about is my uncle, the current teacher of science, Cheng Hao." ”

"Respected teacher of science...... Ning Xiaochuan chuckled in his heart, Cheng Yu's attainments in science can be described as profound, so you can imagine how terrifying this respected teacher of science is.

……

After a night's rest, in the early morning of the next day, Wang Pingyue took Ning Xiaochuan to Langya School Palace to meet Cheng Hao.

The first time I came to Langya School Palace, Ning Xiaochuan felt big, and it was most suitable to describe it with Jin Bihui Hong, solemn atmosphere, but the overall color of the School Palace of the civil structure was sky blue, and the snow had not disappeared in the first few sunsets, giving people a fresh beauty of sunny weather and snow.

Like Jiangyang Xue Palace, there are many pavilions and corridors in the Xue Palace, and through the corridors and pavilions, you will come to Cheng Hao's study.

Cheng Yu is a master of science, and Cheng Hao is a real master of the Divine Spirit Realm.

Outside the study, before entering, Ning Xiaochuan could feel the coercion of the spirit master, Wang Pingyue arched his hand outside the door and said, "Uncle Qiyu, the student Wang Pingyue was ordered by the master to bring Ning Xiaochuan, the son of the Duke of Liguo, to visit." ”

"Come in." An old voice sounded, the door of the study slowly opened, and Wang Pingyue said again, "Uncle Xie." ”

Wang Pingyue got up and looked at Ning Xiaochuan, and made a gesture of please, "Ning Gongzi, please." ”

Ning Xiaochuan bowed his head, walked in slowly, and slammed the door shut as soon as he entered.

In the huge room, full of sandalwood fragrance, on the soft couch under the window, a white-bearded old man was drinking tea and enjoying the scenery, and after seeing Ning Xiaochuan come in, he smiled slightly, "Ning Gongzi, your matter and the letter of the junior brother have already been said." ”

Ning Xiaochuan arched his hand at Cheng Hao, "Senior Ning Xiaochuan visited Mr. Cheng, thank you for your kindness." ”

"Seriously, the old man didn't expect that this dignified King of the East China Sea would find a child to break the situation, let alone that you would dare to come to Langya." Cheng Hao waved his hand slightly, and a steaming cup of tea slowly appeared in front of Ning Xiaochuan.

Ning Xiaochuan smiled and said, "Mr. Cheng, now in the situation of Yangzhou, only the younger generation can break the situation." ”

The old man admits this, but the old man wants to know how you can break the game? A month later, it will be the Spring Festival of Shangyuan, and as far as the old man knows, Lord Bai will have a banquet for his officials on the day of the Spring Festival to discuss the dispatch of troops. Cheng Hao's words made Ning Xiaochuan a little surprised.

"A month, are you in such a hurry?" Ning Xiaochuan said with a frown.

Cheng Hao bowed slightly, "The situation in Yangzhou has been deadlocked for a long time, and it is time for a result." ”

"Sir, there is something I don't understand about the junior." Ning Xiaochuan asked curiously, "If the two sides go to war, will Yin Du's side sit idly by?" ”

In the old man's view, there are only two ways for Dafeng to solve the Yangzhou problem, one is to support the king of the East China Sea, remove Bai Xiangting's position as pastor, and solve the Yangzhou problem from the root; The second way is to send troops to the two states of the East China Sea to suppress the incident by absolute force.

But you have also seen the current situation, Yangzhou has been deadlocked for so long, and the officials of Yindu not only did not solve the problem here, but even had some meaning to add fuel to the fire, and the battlefield of Sichuan and Shu was like a quagmire, which has made it difficult for the Dafeng army to ride a tiger and make it difficult to get out, so now the situation in Yangzhou, do you understand? Cheng Hao stroked his beard and said.

Ning Xiaochuan bowed slightly, "Thank you seniors for informing me, juniors understand, that is, now Dafeng doesn't care about Yangzhou's affairs, but can't manage it, or doesn't want to care about it at all?" ”

"You have to find the answer to this yourself, the old man can say so much, for the stability of Yangzhou, the old man will do everything to help you." Cheng Hao said with a smile.

Ning Xiaochuan got up a little unexpectedly and said, "Thank you, sir, the juniors will definitely not let Mr. down." ”

"Young man, what you did in Xiangzhou, the old man has heard about it, Yangzhou is different from Xiangzhou, if you are dealing with Wulin Jianghu in Xiangzhou, then here, what you have to face is the intrigue of officialdom, and even the intrigue between princely merits, for this, are you ready?" Cheng Hao frowned.

Ning Xiaochuan got up, took a deep breath and said slowly, "The younger generation left Yindu just to stay away from the royal strife and officialdom, and now that I have been away for almost a year, the more I go, the more I feel as if I have returned to Yindu, the whole Dafeng is like a big net, no matter where I flee, I can't escape, so this time, I don't want to escape, for the sake of the Ning family, I must stand up." ”

Cheng Hao nodded with satisfaction and muttered, "There are some things that can't be escaped, and facing them bravely is the best solution." ”
