Under the sunset, the green mountains are surrounded by green water.

In the rainy season in the south of the Yangtze River, the drizzle is continuous, dyeing a thin layer of mist on the green mountains and green waters under the sunset, and on that mountain, a rainbow bridge of colorful colors is erected, extending to another mountain, which is particularly charming.

"Childe, this is Zhuangzi's harvest account for this year, as well as the taxes to be paid, please take a look. ”

An old scholar in his forties held an account book and handed it to Ning Wuji, who was sitting in a chair, and the old scholar was the head of the Zhuangzi tenants, which was somewhat similar to the meaning of the representatives of migrant workers in later generations.

Zhuangzi changed a new owner, the old scholar was sent to test the new master, in this era, the land annexation was serious, a large household in the Zhuangzi, owned most of the land in the Zhuangzi, and the other villagers were tenants of the Zhuangzi, working for the big households, and most of the grain grown by the tenants had to be handed over to the large landlords.

This small manor is not a big Zhuangzi, there are only more than ten tenants, Ning Wuqian bought it, and even the land of Zhuangzi was bought, and it cost more than 1,000 taels of gold, which is expensive.

Ning Wuqian looked at the accounts, densely packed with some small characters, he didn't have much research on these things, he flipped through them casually and handed the accounts to the old scholar, and smiled, "Mr. can handle it himself." ”

He didn't plan to be a rich man here, and the land rent was just better than nothing, and he didn't care, he took a fancy to this manor, just because it was close to Lanruo Temple and deviated from the city, and the location was remote and deep, which was suitable for cultivation.

"Hey, I'll take a look at ......"

Ruolan, who had changed into a clean dress, floated in, the white gauze skirt, revealing the looming pink skin, without fat powder, beautiful and refined, and a faint fragrance wafted in the room.

Ruolan looked at Ning Wufeng with white eyes, took the accounts, and looked at them carefully.

The old scholar looked at Ning Wujian and then at Ruolan, a little cramped and uneasy.

"Hey, why is there a missing stroke here?" Turning to a page, Ruolan frowned and looked at the old scholar.

The old scholar's face suddenly turned pale, knelt down, kowtowed, and hurriedly said: "Son's life, girl's life, not long ago, a group of thieves from nowhere, robbed a field rent, the thief was arrogant and unreasonable, saying that if he sued the official, he would have to leave the village chickens and dogs, and I had no choice but to make a false account, and the son ...... spare."

"Thief, in that case, then it's no wonder you, sir, please. Ning Wuqian raised his eyebrows, got up and helped the old scholar up, "Mr. is also a scholar, why is he still threatened by thieves and do foolish things?"

The old scholar was full of shame and sighed, "Childe doesn't know, some time ago, the army in the city was dispatched to suppress bandits everywhere, this gang of thieves can hide from it, there must be someone behind, this world, we and other ordinary people, how can we fight with such people? ”

Waiting for the old scholar to leave, Ning Wuqian stood in front of the door, watching the night gradually envelop the mountains, and sighed softly, no matter what time it was, he had no strength, so he could only be bullied by others.

Inside, candles are lit.

Ruolan crackled with a jade hand, calculating Zhuangzi's accounts with relish, quite like the master of Zhuangzi.

In this regard, Ning Wuqian just smiled, he didn't pay much attention to money, but if someone helped take care of it, it would be good and save a lot of trouble, since Ruolan was happy, there was no problem in handing over the accounts to her.

Chen Qinglong came back against the night, was drenched in the rain, his body was wet, he changed into clean clothes, after eating, he came to Ning Wuqian's house, and was slightly surprised when he saw Ruolan who was settling accounts next to the table.

After a glance, Chen Qinglong came to Ning Wuji's side.

"Childe!"

Ning Wuqian looked at the Tao Te Ching in his hand and glanced at Chen Qinglong, "What about your brothers?"

"Brother?" Chen Qinglong was stunned.

Ning Wuqian said lightly: "A few days ago, there was a gang of thieves here who robbed the village of a land rent, did your brothers do it?"

"Don't worry, Childe, it won't be my brothers who did it, they took the money and have already dispersed. However, if it is a thief, I think of a group of people, could it be that they did it?"

Chen Qinglong vetoed it, shook his head, and then frowned again, "If they do it, it will be a little troublesome." ”

Ning Wujian closed the Tao Te Ching and looked at Chen Qinglong, "Who is it?"

"Don't hide it from the son, I was originally a spy under Du Fuwei Du Shuai, the current prince Taibao, acting on the side of Hongnong, Du Shuai entered Chang'an, I saw that Li Tang didn't have any good intentions, so I discussed with my subordinates to flee back to Jiangnan, I didn't want to run out of money on the road, and I happened to meet Yang Wenqing, so I started Yang Wenqing's idea. ”

"Oh, Du Fuwei's power is not in the Jianghuai area, why don't you go and take refuge over there?"

After reading some Sui and Tang history books, Ning Wujian still knew a little about Du Fuwei, but he didn't expect Chen Qinglong to be a secret agent under Du Fuwei.

"If the chaos is settled today, Li Tang's rivers and mountains are gradually stable, Du Shuai has entered Chang'an, and his control over the Jianghuai land is weak, and there must be changes, I will go to Jianghuai, and I will also be involved, Jiangnan is more stable, and my hometown is also here. ”

Chen Qinglong explained a few words, and then said: "The gang of thieves that Gongzi said may have something to do with Du Shuai. ”

"Oh?"

"Shen Faxing, this person once served as the county guard of Wuxing, and later called himself the king of Liang, was defeated by Li Zitong's troops Li Xiaobi and threw himself into the river, and it was rumored that Shen Faxing threw himself into the river and drowned, but Li Xiaobi invited merit. Shen Faxing has a nickname of the rivers and lakes 'Submarine Jiao', the water is excellent, and the martial arts are also very good, when I was lurking in Qingyun Mountain, I heard the people on the Tao say that Shen Faxing did not die, and returned to Jiangnan. The government suppresses bandits, and this person is the only one who can escape. ”

Ning Wuqian was slightly silent, Shen Faxing did not die, but this person was recorded later, and he should not live long, or he became a rich man incognito.

"The Shen family still has some power in Jiangnan, Shen Faxing can survive, and the power behind him should have made a lot of efforts, but at this time, there is no need for him to come out and make waves and attract the attention of the government. ”

"En!" Ning Wuqian pondered, "Your brothers have all gone home?" I don't think so, if it wasn't for the war back then, if it wasn't for the ruin, who would want to go to the battlefield, and what kind of home would they have when they came back?"

said to Chen Qinglong that his brothers had changed to good citizens, but Ning Wuqian didn't believe it, he was used to the life of swords and swords, how could he calm down all of a sudden.

"This ......" Chen Qinglong was a little embarrassed, gritting his teeth, "Don't hide it, those brothers are all in Wuzhou City now." ”

"Hmph, dogs can't change their ...... eating," Ruolan, who was settling accounts, snorted coldly.

Chen Qinglong smiled bitterly in his heart, and didn't answer, there are some things, not to say that they can really be put down.

"Go and bring them all over, I see, this matter is not over yet, Shen Faxing?"

Ning Wuqian looked at the hazy night outside the house.

Chen Qinglong's face was happy, and he nodded hurriedly, "Yes, childe......"

"Childe, this huge Zhuangzi is empty, shouldn't you pick a few maids, carry water for cooking, and sweep, it also needs to be done. ”

Ruolan looked at Ning Wuqian very resentfully, today's meals were all made by her, she used to be pampered in Yixiangyuan, but in the past few months, she has eaten all the hardships that should be eaten.

Nagging two sentences, sorry, it's late, today there was a big event for me that was a bolt from the blue, my bank card was accidentally stolen when withdrawing money, more than 10,000 yuan in it, although it was lost, I don't know if the money is still there.
