In the south of Qingyun City, in an exquisite and ingenious courtyard.

Under a plum tree.

Zhang Qingzheng, who had a straight face and a sense of righteousness between his eyebrows, was sitting on a chair looking at the chess game, and there was a game of Go on the stone table next to him, a cup of tea, and the heat was curling.

"Sir. A servant walked in and called softly.

Zhang Qing frowned, he didn't like to be disturbed when he was reading, the servants in the house were all knowledgeable, but Zhang Qing didn't get angry, glanced at the servant, and said, "What's the matter?"

The servant said cautiously: "Master, there is a scholar outside the mansion, saying that he is looking for the master, and he is still holding the master's jade pendant." ”

"Scholar?" Zhang Qing's brows furrowed even tighter, the county test was imminent, and there were indeed many students who came to curry favor with Zhang Qing in the name of visiting, but they were all driven away by Zhang Qing, and the servants should not be unaware of his temper.

"Master, he said his name was Ning Zhongyuan...... This is a jade pendant. The servant took out a jade pendant and handed it to Zhang Qing.

Zhang Qing took the jade pendant, and immediately recalled the scholar boy in the Baiyun Temple in his mind, his frowning brows stretched out, revealing a smile, "It turned out to be him, let him in......"

Seeing a smile on Zhang Qing's gloomy face, the servant also breathed a sigh of relief, and said respectfully: "Yes, master......"

"Wait......" Before the servant could go far, Zhang Qing shouted again and looked at the servant, "Did he have anything in his hand, gifts or something?"

"No...... Except for carrying a book, he didn't hold anything in his hands. ”

When Zhang Qing heard this, he smiled with satisfaction and waved his hand, "Go, bring him to me......"

The servant turned and left.

Zhang Qing didn't read the chess game anymore, closed the book, played with the jade pendant, stroked his beard, and said with a smile: "But it is a good material and beautiful jade, if it is with a gift, maybe it is also an opportunistic person, now it seems that it is indeed a good seedling......

"Master, Master Ning has arrived ......"

Behind the servant who left just now, Ning Wujian who followed the wind and dust, after calming down, Ning Wujian was thinking about how to rescue Ning Bowu and Ning Wushuang, sometimes, force can't solve the problem, Ning Wujian tried to think, he thought of Zhang Qing.

"Zhang Qing is an examiner in the state, and his position is bigger than the county order, and now only Zhang Qing has the strength to help me, but I am only one side of the relationship with him, I don't know if he will help. ”

Ning Wuqian was apprehensive in his heart.

"Zhong Yuan is here?" Zhang Qingxiao looked at Ning Wujian with a smile, even if he was dusty, he couldn't hide the dusty temperament on Ning Wuji's body.

"Zhong Yuan has seen Master Zhang. ”

Ning Wuqian bowed respectfully, raised his head, and looked at Zhang Qing, before coming, he had already thought about what to say when he saw Zhang Qing, thinking about it, judging from Baiyunguan's impression of Zhang Qing, Zhang Qing was upright, thoughtful, and open-minded, and it might be better to say it directly.

"Lord Zhang, Zhong Yuan is here, but he is seeking help from adults. ”

Zhang Qing has been an official for many years, and he is thoughtful, and he can also see that Ning Wuqian has something on his mind, but he is quiet. Picked up the teacup and took a gentle sip of tea.

Seeing this, Ning Wuqian told the whole story one by one, and after finishing speaking, Ning Wuqian stood there, quietly waiting for Zhang Qing to speak.

"Humph......"

At first, Zhang Qing thought that what Ning Wuqian was asking for was just a trivial matter, but he didn't expect that one thing actually involved the county order, and this matter was not simple, and the power behind this county order also made Zhang Qing feel a headache.

What kind of person is Zhang Qing, the officialdom is a little bit of the doorway, he already knows it, and naturally understands this matter, Ning Wujian brother is just a scapegoat, it's just that things are not so simple to understand.

"Do you know what the surname of the county order is?"

Ning Wuqian shook his head and stared at Zhang Qing.

"His surname is Yang, and although he is now in the world of Li Tang, the strength of the Yang Sui clan is still very large, and even the saint is very scruples. ”

Zhang Qing didn't say much, but he had already made it clear that Ning Wujian wanted to move, how much power was behind it, this era because of the rule of the Sui Dynasty for more than 300 years, after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the regime was still very unstable, and the power of the Yang surname was very strong, just like the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, the power of the surname Liu was still relied on by the people of the world.

The family gate valve controls the government.

Behind the change of regime in the Sui and Tang dynasties, it is better to say that it is a power transaction of the family gate valve, the big family and the gate valve can influence the opinions of the monarch, and with the support of the family gate valve, Li Tang can quickly replace the Sui.

Although the imperial examination smashed a number of gate valves and families, it also formed a new force of power, the scholar clan, and these forces fought with each other, and even Zhang Qing was unwilling to get involved.

Looking at Zhang Qing, Ning Wujian took a deep breath and saluted, "They are my brothers, even if there is a sword mountain in front, a sea of fire, and a thorny road, I will also go, thank you Lord Zhang for reminding me, Zhongyuan has taken his leave......"

Watching Ning Wujian turn around without dragging his feet, Zhang Qing sighed lightly, he was as stubborn and youthful as he saw himself when he was young.

"Wait a minute......

Ning Wuqian stopped and looked back at Zhang Qing, with apprehension in his heart, and another glimmer of hope rose.

Zhang Qing stood up, as if he was standing up a green pine, up and down his body, exuding a sense of righteousness, and his face was majestic.

"That's it, I'll help you once, come with me ......"

Ning Wujian breathed a sigh of relief, he was also gambling just now, Zhang Qing still had his own principles, he was not defiled by the officialdom, and he saluted respectfully, "Thank you, Lord Zhang, ......"

followed Zhang Qing to the study in the house, Zhang Qing sat down at the desk, glanced at Ning Wuji, who was still carrying the book, and said lightly: "Sit down, it's useless for you to be in a hurry." ”

Ning Wuji's nervous heart was slightly relaxed, and he untied the book and sat down on a chair.

"You tell it all over again......"

Ning Wu nodded without shortcomings and said the matter one by one, without adding oil and vinegar, Zhang Qing wanted to find a way, naturally he could not be affected by his personal feelings.

Zhang Qing closed his eyes, knocked on the table, for a long time, and said softly: "It is Yang Wenqing's guy who is going to use Zhang Yuantai to kill chickens and monkeys, and Zhao Lian is plotting, not only avenging you for taking away his son's name four years ago, but also greedy for ten thousand taels of gold, it is indeed a good plan, this matter, as long as the government decides the case, ordinary people will not say anything." ”

Ning Wuqian listened carefully, Zhang Qing saw the problem much more clearly than himself.

Zhang Qing opened his eyes and said slowly: "To rescue your brother, it is not difficult to say, it is easy to say, it is not easy, as long as you catch the handle of Yang Wenqing and Zhao Lian, which is enough to threaten the handle of their black gauze hat, you can solve this matter." ”

"Although my official position is higher than Yang Wenqing, I am only a county examiner, and I have no right to interfere with the county office, at most, I can only hold justice for you, do you understand? As for the Zhao Lian you are worried about, he will come to get you, don't worry, Yang Wenqing is not so stupid, with me here, he will not make a big fuss, even if Zhao Lian comes, forgive him and dare not take people in my house!"

Zhang Qing snorted coldly, and his tone was also extremely dissatisfied with Zhao Lian's behavior.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang......"

After listening to Zhang Qing's analysis, Ning Wujian finally calmed down, already had a clear idea in his head, and was no longer so flustered.
