Chapter 95: The Night Sky of Shangjing
"Adults should drink more, this wine is only available in Ningzhou."
"Out of this village, there is no such shop."
Chen Zhi, the assassin of Ningzhou, toasted Jiang Chen frantically, with great enthusiasm.
On the other side, Jiang Zhi and the others were left out in the cold, and they didn't even have a servant to wait.
If it weren't for Jiang Zhi's obstruction, Yan Hongzai would have already slapped the table and left.
"Chen Thorn History doesn't need to be polite, I have no official or position, you are Ningzhou Thorn History, it should be me to toast you."
Facing such an enthusiastic Chen Zhi, Jiang Chen was a little uncomfortable for a while.
After all, all I encountered before were some strange things.
At the very least, this Ningzhou assassin looks much more normal.
"Gongzi Jiang is the person appointed by His Majesty, Miss Zhongli is the only daughter of General Zhongli, you are much stronger than me, the edge of the border."
When Chen Zhi said this, he seemed to be a little emotional.
"Chen Tingshi guards the frontier and works hard, how can it be the edge."
"Harm, don't mention this, drink and drink."
Chen Zhi seemed to have something unspeakable and did not continue.
"It's been a long journey, and I've prepared a room for you."
"Although the conditions are not as luxurious as those in Shangjing, they are not bad, and they are very in line with the characteristics of our Ningzhou."
It seems that there are Jiang Zhi and others on the side, Chen Zhi added.
However, the voice is not so warm and flat.
"Your room is also ready, don't say that I, Jingguo, treat you differently."
In the war between Jingxia and Xia, Ningzhou can be said to bear the brunt.
Chen Zhi has seen too many people who have been implicated in the war, so he naturally has no good face for Jiang Zhi and others.
If they weren't members of the mission, they might not have been able to walk through the gates of Ningzhou City alive.
"Thank you, Lord Thorn."
"Hmm!"
Yan Hong didn't speak.
looked at Jiang Chen, who was talking and laughing with Chen Zhi, and felt a little more lonely in his eyes.
At this time, Jiang Zhi patted him on the shoulder.
"It's not your reason, it's that he's so good, such a young man, I've never seen it in my life."
"Master Jiang is really good at enlightening people!"
Yan Hong glanced at Jiang Zhi.
You old man, which pot you don't open and which pot you don't mention.
However, he didn't blame Jiang Chen in his heart.
During this time, he always wanted to be on a par with Jiang Chen, but every time he made himself disgraced.
This time it was even worse, losing the lives of so many guards.
He resented Jiang Chen more than he resented his own incompetence.
"When we return to Xia on this trip, we will face an unprecedented predicament, and your temper should be restrained."
"Then those people died in vain?"
"Only when you live can you avenge them."
Looking at Jiang Zhi's firm eyes, Yan Hong's heart trembled fiercely.
Oh, yes.
Dead, it's all over!
Thinking of this, as if he had figured out something, he picked up the wine jug on the table and walked to Jiang Chen.
"Jiang Chen, I have caused you a lot of trouble along the way, but I still hope that you can do what you promised me." As he spoke, he drank all the wine in the pot.
"If you apologize, you don't have to, I will do my best to promise you."
In fact, Jiang Chen couldn't blame Yan Hong.
"I've always been just doing what I had to do."
"If all of your people are dead in Jingguo, it won't be easy for me to go back."
"Yes, I understand."
You're a little brat, pretending to be old.
Know how to feather!
In fact, in the eyes of others, he is the one who has been pretending to be old.
After the luncheon, Chen Zhi also prepared a performance for them.
It wasn't until dusk that everyone staggered out of the Assassin's Mansion.
Yang Li supported Jiang Chen, and when he saw that he had left the sight of Chen Zhi and the others, he said to Jiang Chen.
"Stop pretending, they won't see it."
"Watch out for their eyeliner."
Yang Li dragged him up, "Do you think everyone is like you Jiang Gongzi, full of flowery intestines." ”
"I'm called improvisation, learn from you."
"You didn't find anything strange?" Yang Li said without giving up.
He didn't believe it, and with Jiang Chen's old scheming, he didn't see Yang Zhi's careful thoughts.
"It's so welcoming."
"yes, it's unimaginable."
"He doesn't have any bad intentions."
"So sure?"
After what had happened in the past few days, Yang Li couldn't believe this seemingly kind official.
As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger.
Who would have thought that these officials were so unpredictable.
It's still simple and simple to be a killer, officialdom is too difficult to mix.
"At least he doesn't want to be bad with us."
"Didn't you find that Ningzhou is much duller than Qizhou as a whole?"
After Jiang Chen's reminder, he noticed the streets on both sides.
Except for some shops with their doors open, there are very few vendors who set up stalls, and the cries are much less.
"Maybe it's because it's on the border?"
"It's not that simple." Jiang Chen said in a deep voice, "But these problems have nothing to do with us, they are the headaches of those adults in the imperial court, and it is not our turn to worry about them." ”
Jiang Chen suddenly began to miss the days in Shangjing.
I don't know if Zhao Qiansun has jumped like thunder.
It's been a long time since he's been to the meditation hall to listen to a lullaby.
At night, Ningzhou City is extremely quiet.
It even seems a little cold.
Jiang Chen stood on the city wall, looking at the endless plain in front of him.
Ningzhou lies across the plain here, and it is cut into two sections.
The moonlight shone on the thick, scarred walls, as if to tell of the battles it had endured.
The moat under the castle is somewhat uneven, apparently having been expanded several times.
"Jiang Gongzi hasn't rested so late."
"Isn't Lord Thorn Shi too?"
Chen Zhi came to Jiang Chen's side with a few soldiers, stood still with him, and looked into the distance.
"Night patrol, every day, after all, this is the gateway to Jingguo, so you still have to be cautious."
"Lord Thorn Shi is really hard."
"I can't talk about it, I can't talk about it."
Chen Zhi waved his hand and said with a smile: "This is also for ourselves, for the safety of the people in the city, after all, once the city is broken, we will be the first to fall under the enemy's butcher's knife." ”
When he said this, Jiang Chen could obviously hear a bit of desolation from his words.
Maybe it's because there's been too much war.
"Jiang Gongzi, there is a question I don't know whether to ask or not."
"Lord Thorn Shi has something to say."
"Shangjing, is it beautiful?"
Jiang Chen turned his head and looked at Chen Zhi in surprise.
At the same time, he also saw the eager gazes of the soldiers behind Chen Zhi.
"It's for them, and it's for me."
Chen Zhi looked up at the night sky, and there seemed to be tears flickering in his eyes.
"We want to know if it is a prosperous era that we are worried about every day and exchange our lives for our lives."
"Beautiful, beautiful!"
"That's good, that's good!"
Chen Zhi's words made Jiang Chen's heart suddenly full of emotion.
The front is shrouded in the horse leather, but the rear is taking the power and interests in his own hands.
What an irony it is.
But what era is that not the case?
Perhaps touched by Chen Zhi's words, Jiang Chen suddenly blurted out.
"I'll definitely let you see the night sky in Shangjing!"
Chen Zhimeng turned his head and looked at the young man he saw for the first time.
Suddenly there was a feeling in my heart.
He'll be able to see it!
