She slowly took a half-step forward.

"I don't have a brother, let alone a family." Shen Ningning's voice echoed in the cold of the ice and snow, and was engulfed by the sound of the wind, sounding emotionless.

There was a dead silence around, only the countless pairs of eyes, silently looking at her.

Dong Aniu couldn't help but be stunned.

Shen Ningning pursed her pink lips and said, "Haven't you heard your godfather say it?" ”

"My family has long been killed by bandits."

"So, how could they come to me? I can't help you, let alone help you! ”

"You go to the government, if you make trouble again, don't blame me for being unkind!"

The little one said sassy, and then walked on his little feet.

Ye Shangyi and Lu Shaoyuan hurriedly chased after her.

The two of them talked one after another, asking Shen Ningning not to be like Dong Aniu.

Dong Aniu looked at her distant figure, her mouth opened and opened, but she didn't know what to say.

"This, this ......" This girl's heart is too hard.

originally wanted to say something embarrassing to her in public, but Shen Ningning couldn't get off the stage, so he had to agree to help him find someone.

However, Shen Ningning didn't care at all and didn't accept the offer.

The students of the Chinese Academy saw that he was a scoundrel.

They all raised their voices to drive away-

", you're not welcome here."

"The county lord of Funing is pitiful enough, you still told her miserable life story in public, if it were me, I would have beaten you to death."

In the midst of everyone's cursing, Dong Aniu fled like a rat crossing the street.

As soon as he walked around the corner, he was stopped by two fierce guards.

"You, what do you want to do?" Dong Aniu was taken aback.

But the guard didn't talk nonsense to him.

only said fiercely: "Our lord has an order, arrest you in prison, go!" ”

The two of them grabbed Dong Aniu's arm one left and one right, and brought him back to Dali Temple strongly.

All night.

In the cold and damp dungeon, Dong Aniu's screams never stopped.

At first, he refused to recruit.

But the interrogating officials in Dali Temple have a way to get him to speak.

Early the next morning, Xie Ming'an was wearing a navy blue robe, and his figure was as long as jade.

He stepped into the Dali Temple.

The master bookkeeper greeted him: "My lord, that Dong Aniu has finally been recruited." ”

After Xie Ming'an sat down on his desk, he picked up Dong Aniu's interrogation questionnaire and looked at it.

Looking at the past, his thin eyes narrowed slightly, showing coldness.

It turned out that Dong Aniu had received money from a wealthy merchant in the town and wanted to sell his sister Dong Sanhua as a concubine.

However, Dong Sanhua disagreed, and the day before the rich businessman was hired, he fled directly.

There is no trace of his whereabouts to date.

However, Dong Aniu received the rich merchant's money and spent it all.

Now he can't hand over people, and he can't pay back the money, and the rich businessman wants his life!

In desperation, Dong Aniu thought of asking Shen Ningning for shelter and help.

wants to use Shen Ningning's county master connections to find people in the capital.

Unexpectedly, Shen Ningning didn't accept the offer at all.

Xie Ming'an read everything and closed the file.

The chief bookkeeper asked, "My lord, what should we do with him next?" ”

Xie Ming'an's eyes were slightly cold: "Send someone to ask Shen Ningning, explain the ins and outs of the matter, and ask her what she wants to do with this person." ”

"Yes." The master book was about to go out, but was suddenly stopped by Xie Ming'an.

Xie Ming'an thought for a while, and said in a clear voice: "By the way, tell her that Xie Cheng misses her a little, and if she has nothing to do today, she can go home for dinner." ”

The master nodded and wrote it down, and quickly complied.

However, an hour later, the master book was returned, with a sad face.

"Your Excellency."

Xie Ming'an put down his pen: "Say." ”

The chief bookkeeper sighed: "The county lord said that Dong Aniu has nothing to do with her, and Grandma Qin also supports punishment according to the law." ”

"So, she won't come, let the adults do it themselves."

Xie Ming'an's pair of breezy and moonlit thin eyes suddenly seemed to be covered with frost.

"Did she agree to go home for dinner?"

"No ......" the chief bookkeeper shook his head: "The county lord said that he was busy with schoolwork, and he had dinner with the prime minister in the city yesterday, and he won't come back today." ”

Xie Ming'an frowned.

It turned out that Shen Ningning didn't go back to Xie's house now, and he was eating alone with Xie Suzhi outside?

And Xie Suzhi didn't even mention it.

They're like father and daughter! Treat him like an outsider.

Xie Ming'an thought and pinched his eyebrows irritably.

"Got it, you step aside."

The "......" chief book hesitated: "My lord, you haven't said yet, how did you send this Dong Aniu, is it handed over to the government, or?" ”

Xie Ming'an opened his thin eyes again, and his expression was as sharp as a knife.

"The county lord is the emperor's own title, and if he humiliates Shen Ningning in public, he is disrespecting the emperor and ...... according to the law."

Xie Ming'an pondered for a moment.

The chief bookkeeper just wanted to say that according to the law, thirty boards should be re-struck.

Unexpectedly, Xie Ming'an immediately said: "Whip fifty and detain for half a month to set an example." ”

The chief bookkeeper was secretly shocked in his heart, and hurriedly surrendered his hand on his face: "Yes, the subordinates will do it." ”

He smacked his tongue.

Originally, the files handled by Dali Temple were all major events involving officials and the court.

Bypassing the government to directly punish people like Dong Aniu is already a knife for killing chickens.

At this time, Dong Aniu was still punished so heavily.

The cold winter is steep, and the wound from the whip is not good.

It is said that Xie Ming'an is ruthless, and the master book now feels that the rumors outside are really not wrong.

Meanwhile.

The frontier, which is comparable to the cold of the capital, is also a cold ice and snow world.

Gloomy sky, cold snowy fields.

The black river flowing in front of the city has long been frozen with thick ice.

Lion's Head City, the frontier city of Cangyun Country, is standing in such a boundless and cold wilderness, facing the Black River.

It is like a silent giant, the extended city wall, like an arm, guarding the frontier of Cangyun Country behind it, and it is difficult for the enemy to climb such a magnificent lofty mountain.

In the icy and cold sky and snow, when you look up, the Lion's Head City is like a black mountain soaring into the sky, towering and indestructible.

The soldiers of the Changliu Kingdom set up a camp near the Lion's Head City.

They were just waiting for a suitable opportunity to storm the city.

However, at the beginning, they had high morale and came to the war with rich supplies, just to tear off a piece of meat from Cangyun when the Cangyun country was affected by the cold plague!

However, it has been more than a month since he came, but it has always been difficult to attack Lion's Head City.

First of all, General Xie Mingxu, the general of Cangyun Kingdom, led six columns to enter and exit three times, and raided the barracks of Changliu Kingdom several times, and they were caught off guard!

Again, the Qing Dai female general and his wife led the troops twice and outflanked them before and after.

They don't kill people, they only grab rations, and the soldiers of Changliu Kingdom, who don't care about their heads and tails, are often succeeded by their husband and wife.

That's it, what's more-

There is always smoke burning in the Lion's Head City!

The people and the soldiers do not seem to be short of food.

This made the generals of Changliu Kingdom very puzzled.

Before they came, they had already found out that Cangyun Country had experienced drought and cold disasters one after another, and it was a good time to make ends meet.

It is said that the people are hungry for soil and snow, so how can there be a steady supply of food in the city?

On the contrary, it's these Changliu soldiers who are about to be boiled to death.

Their people froze to death one after another.

And the rations they brought were even more scarce.

So far, he has not received half of the benefits from the hands of Xie Mingxu, the general of Cangyun Kingdom.

Several of the leading generals of the Changliu Kingdom had to get together to discuss strategies.

Several people had their own opinions and quarreled.

But in the end, they all came to one conclusion.

If they don't do something, they'll lose the battle!

"General, the fine work we have planted has finally arrived!" A scout, carrying snow on his shoulders, ran into the tent with an excited expression.

Kimura, the leader of the general, hurriedly opened the letter.

When he saw it, he was shocked.

"Xie Mingxu has the help of a master behind him, specializing in spirit grass?!"
