When those people went away, Lin Sheng was still watching, and said to me for a long time: "This farewell, I don't know when I will see you again, life is probably like this, there is never a banquet!" I "oh" sounded, still worried about Yin Hua, it was inevitable that there was some emptiness in my heart, Lin Sheng saw that I was speechless, looked back at me, and said with a smile: "What's wrong, young man?" Still want to fly over? I suddenly lost my temper and hurriedly asked, "Father-in-law, why don't we do it?" ”

Lin Sheng listened, smiled slightly, and was just about to speak, when he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, and a large number of people and horses galloped from the east. When I saw the people who came, I couldn't help but be taken aback, my heart was not as good as the Tatars, the person at the head turned out to be Miss Nan Ningxi, followed by Ning Boyang and others, they were so tired that they were panting.

And Ning Xi's face was ruddy, becoming more and more gorgeous, presumably she had been running around for a long time, but I didn't expect her to be so good at equestrianism. Ning Xi suddenly saw me, and his face was full of anger, and he grabbed his mount and stared at me. Next to me, Ning Boyang was still squeezing his eyebrows at me, and he could see that he was reminding me to be careful, I thought to myself, I must have not accompanied Miss Ning Xi here, and she was angry without saying goodbye. Thinking of this, I walked quickly to Ningxi, just walked a few steps, Ningxi lifted the reins of the horse, urged the horse to come over, I was busy giving a deep salute, just about to speak, the horsewhip sounded a crisp sound, "whew" called, I didn't dare to dodge, I was stiffly whipped, the horse whip hit the back, it hurt so much that I closed my eyes, and quickly opened it, afraid that she would whip again, Ningxi didn't seem to expect that I didn't dodge, his face showed a panicked look, but said: "Zhang Ying, are you guilty?" Before I could speak, Lin Sheng had already come over and said with a haha: "Miss Ningxi, stop your anger, this matter also has something to do with our family, and our family asked Zhang Zongqi to do this!" ”

Ning Xi was stunned for a moment and said, "Father-in-law, why didn't my father-in-law let me come here?" Lin Sheng glanced at everyone and said: "Since there are no outsiders here, our family really doesn't hide it, this group of Mongols is not a merchant at all, but a Tatar official, you also know that the Tatars have harassed my Daming many times, and this time they came to spy on the news of the Daming, for this reason, Gonggong Liu asked our family to rob and kill them here." Our family was short of manpower, so Zhang Ying was temporarily transferred. Because the matter was confidential, our family and Zhang Ying didn't tell everyone! His words suddenly made Ning Boyang serious, he looked around, and didn't seem to believe it, Lin Sheng saw his thoughts, and said lightly: "We didn't have a helper yet, so we had to let these people go." However, we have already got the map they stole and drawn. As he spoke, he took out a bag from his arms, took out a piece of white silk from it, and opened it for us to see, and sure enough, it was the road map from Juyongguan to the capital, including the garrison and so on.

I looked at the bag and looked a little familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere, Ning Boyang had already smiled and said, "My father-in-law is really amazing!" Lin Sheng immediately put it away and said, "The Tatar wolf is not small, you must be cautious in dealing with them in the future!" ”

Ning Xi listened, glanced at me, showed guilt on his face, and said: "In this way, it seems that it is mine or not, Mr. Zhang, I, I apologize to you!" After she said that, her voice was a little weak, and I hurriedly said: "It's the responsibility of my subordinates, and there is a reason for it, how can I blame Miss?" Ning Xi nodded and said, "It's okay, this favor is owed by me, Mr. Zhang has worked hard!" ”

I gave a salute and said, "Miss don't have to think about it, my subordinates are ordered to accompany Miss and do everything they should do." Ning Xi smiled, with a gentle attitude, and said: "You said so, this matter is over, since this is the case, let's go and see the Xianzhong Temple!" ”

Ning Xi's words were very resolute, Lin Sheng also nodded, and we went to see the Xianzhong Temple together, this Ning Xi walked straight in, Manager Ge asked me to follow, and the rest of the people were resting around. Ning Xi entered the ancestral hall, looked around, and sighed: "It's really ruined!" Looking at Yingzong's imperial stone stele, he said, "Zhang Zongqi, let your subordinates clean up this place." ”

I saw that Ning Xi had a solemn face, and I didn't dare to slack off, so I hurriedly called Ning Boyang and arranged for someone to clean up quickly. There was no water here at all, fortunately there was snow, Ning Boyang ordered his life to start a fire, set up an iron pot, melted the snow into water, and then began to clean up. These people made a lot of dust inside, and we went out of the ancestral hall and climbed to a high place. At this time, the sun was shining, and there was a white expanse everywhere, although there was no human figure to be seen, but it was also a little heroic.

We stood there, looking at it casually, and Ning Xi suddenly asked me, "Zhang Ying, have you ever read?" I didn't know what her question was, so I honestly replied, "I've been in private school for a few days!" Ning Xi said: "I heard that you understand medical skills?" You can know what Coptis chinensis tastes like! When I get back to the capital, I'll let you have a bowl. As she spoke, she glared at me fiercely, and I had to bow my head and salute, saying, "My subordinates know a little about medical skills, and they can't go on the stage." Ning Xi smiled, and was a little charming, I didn't dare to look at her again, turned my head, and caught a glimpse of Lin Sheng's attendant coming over, and Lin Sheng turned around, I didn't know what to say, I could hardly hear the sound, Lin Sheng nodded, looked here, thoughtfully.

Ning Xi suddenly said, "I want to go there and have a look!" As he spoke, he pointed to a frozen river in the distance. It's just that there is no road, and I guess I can only walk in the snow to get there, which will be very difficult.

Naturally, I couldn't shirk it, and I just wanted to give the order to open the way. At this time, Lin Sheng walked over and said to Ning Xi: "Miss Ning Xi, it is cold and snowy here, it is quite desolate, if you want a map over there, we have it." Although Miss is not afraid of difficulties, but our family heard that Miss has not entered the palace for many days, and the queen mother misses it very much, and our family thinks that you should visit the queen mother! Looking at the sun, he said: "Go to the capital at this hour, and before dark, you can also arrive!" Ning Xi's eyes rolled, and he agreed, and said, "Okay, after Father-in-law Lao returns to Beijing, he will give me a map." He looked at us and said, "Then let's get going!" Before dark, I'm going to enter the palace! "I was surprised in my heart, the purpose of Ning Xi's coming here was to investigate on the spot, and besides, Lin Sheng actually had a map of this area?

I saw the sad faces of the brothers when they first arrived, and I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, and immediately asked people to pack up their horses and wagons and set off.

I was just about to get on the horse and set off, Lin Sheng stopped me and said, "This is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, there are many of our people around, you let your men go first, and our family will talk to you about something." ”

I knew that Lin Sheng had something to do, so I hurriedly arranged for Ning Boyang to lead the team to set off.

After everyone left, Lin Sheng led me and his two entourages into the Xianzhong Temple, and cleaned up after a while, and the place was suddenly much cleaner. Lin Sheng bowed to these spiritual positions very seriously, and we followed suit, Lin Sheng sighed: "Although this is a sad place for the Ming Dynasty, we can't turn a blind eye. The world is long, how many good men have died here! ”

I nodded and continued: "What my father-in-law said is that they are all loyal martyrs of the Ming Dynasty!" It's worth paying tribute to! Lin Sheng smiled and said: "It's rare, it's rare, you can know like this, which shows that you are different from others, Jinyiwei is not only the emperor's pro-army, but also the cornerstone of the Ming Dynasty." If you do it well, you can get ahead. Actually, when you came, our family saw it, and the reason why you didn't come forward was to wait for someone! ”

Lin Sheng's words are similar to what Luo Zhong said, at first I just thought it was polite, but now it sounds, I feel that there is something in the words, coupled with the majesty of Juyongguan, the golden iron horse of the martyrs, I suddenly have an urge to serve the country, and said generously at the moment: "Don't hide it from my father-in-law, my grandfather once said to me, a man is as dead as iron, look at the test hand, and make up for the cracks in the sky." Although I am not talented, I also want to serve the country. ”

Lin Sheng nodded approvingly and said, "What your grandfather said is that a good man who stands up to the sky and the earth, how can he not serve the country." ”

I suddenly felt reckless, my grandfather has always been cautious, never publicity, I remember Bao Xiaobai told me, my family is actually quite mysterious, Jinyiwei and Dongchang fans are all over the world, I said it unintentionally, in case of trouble, it is not good.

I thought so, but Lin Sheng changed the topic and asked me how Xue Shen was? Although Xue Shen was a later, he was a hundred households, above us, he was extremely arrogant, and he didn't take us seriously at all. I rarely talk to him, and I am mostly polite on my face. It's just that this time Mu Bin was rescued, and he volunteered to chase the murderer, and I haven't seen him again.
