Volume 2 Dynasty Chapter 61 The Hidden Heart Sutra
The time came to the early morning of the next day, Shen Ning according to the agreement with Ying Xianhui last night, she left after she woke up, after Shen Ning left, Ying Xianhui sat on the bed and looked at the place where Shen Ning had slept, stunned, and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously, when the maid Bing'er pushed the door open and came in to serve her, and when she washed, she happened to see this scene in front of her, and Bing'er noticed her complexion after resting, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face, understood that the princess of her family had a good night's sleep last night: "Your Highness, what do you want to eat this morning?" I'll go and ask someone in the back row to do it for you right now. ”
After Ying Xianhui saw Bing'er come in, her face inadvertently revealed an unnatural look, and she just replied lightly: "It's okay to eat a little bit, you can put the water basin here and I'll come by myself." ”
Bing'er nodded when she heard this, and happily trotted all the way out of this courtyard, and went to the back kitchen to arrange this morning for Ying Xianhui.
After leaving the eldest princess's mansion, Shen Ning returned to the inn and told Zi Fu Lingyue about his acquisition of the magic weapon, after learning that Shen Ning had successfully completed the first step, Zi Fu Lingyue also told yesterday's information, I went to these officials' homes yesterday according to your list above, and did not find the figure of the Strange Mountain, Shen Ning was not very surprised after hearing it, but just opened his mouth to answer and explained: "The Strange Mountain People have always been very cautious in doing things, and now many court officials have been killedOthers must have been wary of that too. In such a situation, the Strange Mountain will be more careful, and it will not be easy for us to find them. ”
After hearing Shen Ning's words, Zifu Lingyue nodded, what the other party said was right, it is indeed not an easy thing to find the Tricky Mountain People in a short period of time and take effective action, this matter can only be solved by hiding in the shadows and taking it slowly.
In the next period of time, Shen Ning and Zi Fu Lingyue have been secretly paying attention to the mansions of those imperial court officials who may be attacked by the Tricky Mountain People, but they have not gained anything, and in their spare time, Shen Ning will cross the imperial city to guard and quietly come to the Eldest Princess's Mansion to accompany Ying Xianhui, such days have lasted for more than half a month, and their situation has progressed.
It was one night, Shen Ning was lurking in an official's house, he clearly felt a fluctuation of the spirit yuan about the people of the mountain, and then used the Xuan thaumaturgy method to notify Zi Fu Lingyue, after making sure that the other party got the news and had rushed here, Shen Ning slowly took out a few magic weapons from Li Xuanji from his arms, and with a burst of imperceptible spirit yuan escaped, the entire official's mansion had been blocked by Shen Ning, but at this time, The spiritual element fluctuations about the Strange Mountains were even stronger.
Now Shen Ning was hiding in a wing room of this official's house, and he could feel the fluctuations of the spirit yuan of the Mysterious Mountain People. But he couldn't see anything unusual in this official's mansion, so after a simple thought, his figure quietly appeared in the sky above the mansion, and then used a magic weapon to hide his figure well in the night, if it wasn't for someone to investigate carefully, it would be impossible to find him.
It was precisely because of this move that Shen Ning saw the abnormality in the official's mansion.
I saw a side room in this mansion, where there was still a dim candle flame, this is the study of Yang Jie, the household servant, and it is also his usual office, and it is still brightly lit, thinking that he is dealing with some important official business, Shen Ning is no stranger to this. When he was lurking here in Yang Jie during this time, he could often see the behavior of this senior member of the imperial court who worked tirelessly and sleepless all night for the sake of national affairs, and he imagined what the consequences of overdrawing his body like this would be as an ordinary person, and what Shen Ning cared about the most was the two servants who appeared outside his study, and the spiritual aura on the body of the people of the Strange Mountain was emanating from these two people.
According to the current situation, not all the people of the Tricky Mountains are slaughtering the officials of the Great Jin, which is undoubtedly a very good news for Shen Ning, because if he really faces all the people of the Tricky Mountains, he is actually not sure in his heart that he can achieve the effect he expects with the magic weapon he got from Li Xuanji, and the current situation is just right.
The night is quiet.
In the study, Yang Jie, the head of the household, held a document passed from the Xishu Road in his hand, read it carefully, after reading it, his brows were tightly wrinkled together, the famine of Xishu Road has lasted for more than half a year, after the implementation of many programs, although the famine situation has been greatly alleviated, in essence, the Xishu Road in the case of drought for many years, it is impossible to have any food output, it can be said that the current Xishu Road needs the entire Jin Dynasty to support, But now the Great Jin is at war with Beimang, not only need to support the front-line army, but also frequent all kinds of disasters in various places, all need the imperial court to carry out material support, where is the current imperial court still has excess money and grain to support the Xishu Road, this problem has been plaguing their household for too long, and if this continues, the victims of the Xishu Road may turn into homeless people and finally even become Liukou, and the disaster brought by the time can be imagined.
Thinking of this, Yang Jie put down the official document in his hand and sighed deeply, now the Great Jin Dynasty is full of devastation, and these officials of the imperial court are like sewing craftsmen, where they need to make up for it, but the only way is to demolish the east wall to make up for the west wall, this method is obviously a palliative rather than a cure, and the longer the time drags on, all the drawbacks will become more and more serious.
For the current situation, the imperial court can be said to be helpless, the only way is that the two guardian lords, the White Tiger and the Vermilion Bird, can win the battlefield of Beimang as soon as possible, which can not only reduce the expenditure of the Great Jin in the army, but also plunder the resources of the Northern Mang, which is used to fill the deficit in all aspects of the Great Jin court.
Yang Jie was thinking in his heart, and at the same time, there was a rapid knock on the door, and he said impatiently: "Didn't I say that you are not allowed to disturb me when I am dealing with official business?" ”
"Master, there is something urgent." The servant outside the door replied.
