Chapter 174
"You don't seem to have a pleasant conversation with Zheng Gongshan?"
During the period of time when Shen Ning was talking with Zheng Yang, Zifu Lingyue was under the attic, waiting, in case someone else would come, so the details of the conversation between the two people were not very clear, but she could vaguely hear that the two people seemed to have an argument, she knew that Shen Ning had always respected Zheng Yang very much, and she was a little surprised by such a situation.
"It's really not pleasant, the first emperor is very kind to Zheng Gong, so he is loyal not only to the people of the world, but also to the royal family, so Yingji has the edict of the first emperor in his hand, so for Zheng Gong, the only thing he has to do as a courtier is to obey Yingji." Shen Ning roughly told Zi Fu Lingyue what had just happened.
Zi Fu Lingyue frowned and said, "So Gong Zheng doesn't agree with your approach and won't help you?" ”
Shen Ning shook his head and replied: "It's not like that, according to Zheng Gong's thoughts, it's actually very simple, as a courtier, he can't investigate Yingji, but we can, so for him, as long as we can find enough evidence, then he will be on our side, and if Yingji has any drastic moves, it will be a big help for us." ”
"Yingji's matter is not as simple as it seems, so what do you want to do?"
Shen Ning sighed slightly, and replied: "The current situation is very complicated, but it is not without a breakthrough, isn't Yingji arranging for the Tricky Mountains to slaughter people who pose a threat to his throne?" According to this line of thought, what we should do now is very simple, as long as we can catch one of them when the next time the people of the mountains make a move, or find evidence to prove that they have a relationship with Yingji, we can make Zheng Gong biased towards us, and at the same time, we can also let the people of the world see the truth of this matter clearly. ”
There is no problem with Shen Ning's thinking, but the two of them are facing another problem, Zi Fu Lingyue thought about it and put it forward: "But with the strength of the two of us, it is difficult to be the opponent of the Strange Mountain People, and their strength I think you have already experienced it in Henan Province." ”
Shen Ning nodded: "What you said is indeed right, the strength of the two of us is indeed not the opponent of the Tricky Mountain Sect, so I still need to prepare something." ”
Zifu Lingyue showed a puzzled look on her face, but Shen Ning no longer continued to mention this matter, but instead said: "During this time, in addition to preparing a list of court officials who have been killed, I have also prepared a list of those who may have problems recently. Second, I hope you can be safe. ”
Zifu Lingyue glanced at Shen Ning and nodded slowly.
After a brief discussion, the two men went their separate ways.
Shen Ning wanted to prepare for the next things, so of course he didn't return to the inn with Zifu Lingyue, but walked straight in the direction of the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
If Shen Ning's current identity is very sensitive and cannot be known to others, then in the whole world, the only place where he can show his true face may be the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
Seeing the Heavenly Master's Mansion after a long absence, Shen Ning couldn't tell what he felt in his heart, he had experienced too many things during this time, even if he stayed in the inn of Shenjing City, his heart had never been able to settle down, but when he approached the Heavenly Master's Mansion, he felt an unprecedented sense of security, maybe this is the feeling of home as defined by the Great Jin.
When Shen Ning approached the Heavenly Master's Mansion, two white-clothed disciples were guarding the door, looking like new disciples who had joined the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and they had no impression in their memory.
"Who?"
When the two disciples saw Shen Ning coming, they immediately asked.
Shen Ning directly handed out the token of the Heavenly Master's Mansion engraved with his name, and after seeing the token, the other party looked at Shen Ning who was wearing a mask, and it seemed that he had not seen this name on the roster of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, so he did not agree with Shen Ning to enter, but said: "This senior brother, and wait here for a while, the two of us have just cultivated and have been transferred to the front door, and we still don't recognize all of you." ”
Shen Ning nodded, not annoyed, on the contrary, the other party's vigilance made him feel satisfied.
After seeing that Shen Ning agreed, one of the disciples ran into the Heavenly Master's Mansion, wanting to find a disciple with a slightly deeper qualifications to see if he knew Shen Ning.
It didn't take long for time to come out of it, a man with a handsome face, dressed in white, looking personable, when he saw this person, Shen Ning said softly: "Senior Sister Peony, you are pretending to be Senior Brother Qi again, he will be angry." ”
When he heard this familiar voice, the man in white was suddenly stunned, his eyes immediately turned red, and he said in disbelief: "Little ..... Bro? ”
Shen Ning smiled and nodded.
"How so..... You're not already. Peony looked at him in front of him in disbelief, you must know that the news of Shen Ning's death was released by the Great Jin Imperial Court, and even hung his body on the wall of Shangqiu City at that time, in order to calm the anger of the hundred schools of Xianmen in Henan Province, but now she looked at Shen Ning standing in front of her, her heart was full of mixed feelings for a while, some were happy, some were surprised, but more panic, she was afraid that Shen Ning's identity would be recognized by others, so she hurriedly said: "This is your senior brother, and he has never returned to the Heavenly Master's Mansion for a long time." It's normal that you don't know each other. ”
With that, Peony brought Shen Ning into the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
Looking at Shen Ning and Peony who walked into the Heavenly Master's Mansion, the two looked at each other: "That senior brother just called senior brother and sister?" I guess I heard it right, right? ”
"Of course you heard it right, that's what I heard."
The eyes of the two men were full of incomprehension.
......................
......................
Shen Ning and Peony walked side by side on the bluestone paved path of the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
"What the hell are you doing now?" Seeing that Shen Ning was safe and sound, Peony's hanging heart finally let go, but she pinched Shen Ning's ears very angrily: "Good guy, I don't know if I'm okay and I don't know how to find a chance to tell my senior sister, so many senior brothers have cried for you, even your grave is built in the green bamboo forest, you are still alive now, you say it yourself, what is it." ”
Peony was really angry, so Shen Ning pinched it very painfully.
Under the mask, Shen Ning covered his ears with bared teeth and begged, "It hurts!" Senior sister really hurts! ”
"Senior sister doesn't hurt!" Peony said angrily, but he still let go of the hand that was pinching Shen Ning's ear: "It's okay now, hurry up and tell me the truth of the matter!" ”
Shen Ning rubbed his ears and said with a wry smile: "Actually, the matter is very simple, that day there was a big battle between the prisoner car and the Vermilion Bird guarding them, I was clever, so I found a chance to run, but after that, I contacted the Tsing Yi Division to tell Your Majesty about my situation, maybe I think I still have some effect, Your Majesty replaced me with a corpse, so I survived." ”
After listening to Shen Ning's words, Peony suddenly realized that she knew that her junior brother not only had a good relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince before, but also was a chess edict authorized by Emperor Jing, and was often able to enter the palace to meet Emperor Jing, so it was not surprising that she could be appreciated by His Majesty the Emperor.
However, she was still very annoyed in her heart, not telling them about such a big thing, these senior brothers and sisters, it was really unusual, so she kicked Shen Ning's ass.
Shen Ning could only glance at the peony aggrievedly.
"Say it. What's the matter with you coming back? Peony asked angrily, she knew that Shen Ning's current identity was very special, he should be engaged in tasks such as the dark side, if it was not necessary, he would definitely not show up easily, and now when he returned to the Heavenly Master's Mansion, something must have happened to make it happen.
Shen Ning stopped playing around at the moment, but said seriously: "I really need to see the master when I come back this time. ”
Peony nodded, just like she thought.
"Master is in the Daoju in the depths of the green bamboo forest, you go by yourself, I won't go, the master has been studying the Tao during this time, and he has never come out, I am too lazy to disturb her, and only your master is very distressed, and he will not be angry with you."
Shen Ning grinned, perhaps because he was the youngest among the previous batch of disciples, and he had always been Li Xuanji's most favored disciple, which made many senior brothers and sisters very blushing.
After Shen Ning and Peony separated, they walked straight towards the green bamboo forest, and along the way, they saw a lot of senior brothers and sisters who had a good relationship before, and the other party recognized him without even listening to Shen Ning's figure, his face was full of surprise, but he quickly regained his composure and did not come up to communicate with him.
It's not that they're angry, it's just that they all understand that Shen Ning's current identity is special.
When he came to the depths of the green bamboo forest, Shen Ning saw the Taoist residence of his memory.
I don't know why his footsteps suddenly slowed down, he felt a very familiar aura in the Dao Residence, and this aura came from the previous cultists of the Evil God Sect - it belonged to the breath of the Evil God!
