Ping An Biography

The windows were left open, and the late autumn wind, carrying the smell of frost, rose and fell from time to time, blowing the flame of the white candle in the porcelain basin on the table flickering.High-speed update Zhang Ning saw the cross-neck coat on the little sister's body loosely draped over his body, so he stretched out his hands to wrap her in the middle, his face reflected the flickering candlelight, and seemed to become cloudy and uncertain.

He didn't notice that every time such subtle care is tempting others to slowly fall into the abyss.His face seemed to be very calm, but there was forbearance, and Zhang Xiaomei recalled the expression on his face when he looked at the auspicious talisman, which was also the same.

Some things don't need to be said, just keep in your heart.The little girl looked at him innocently: "Brother, I seem to have said something wrong, just now..."

A blush rose on her cheeks, and she couldn't help speaking too bluntly for a moment, she felt ashamed for a while, then lowered her head and pinched the corner of her clothes.Seeing this, Zhang Ning said: "There are no outsiders, just say what you say, don't worry about it, it's getting late and go back to the room to rest, brother has important things tomorrow, be obedient."

Zhang Xiaomei dawdled for a while with her head down, and had to stand up slowly.She has experience, and usually there will be no results at this time, only loss; but there is one exception, that is, when she was in Nanjing, her family forced her to marry, and she couldn't help being willful for a while, and her brother He still doted on her, not only complied with her unreasonable request, but also brought her to the capital.If she hadn't mustered up the courage to mess around, how could she hear her brother patiently coaxing her here, how could she be held in his hand and hugged by him?

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaomei's depressed mood rose again, and she suddenly raised her head and said, "Brother is deceiving himself!"

Seeing her angry look, Zhang Ning blurted out and asked, "Why do you say that?"

The little girl said: "You obviously hate others, but you always pretend to be a good man and gentleman. It's not hypocrisy, it's not self-deception, what is it?"

It's hard for anyone to be exposed, and Zhang Ning is no exception. He said a little angrily, "Little sister thinks that my brother's kindness to you is all fake?"

Seeing that he was slightly agitated, the younger sister no longer insisted on being calm as usual, and a smile appeared on her little mouth: "Then let me ask you, you always talk about how I should get married and have children, but you think about it yourself." Think, are you really willing to marry me off as someone else's family? Don't you feel bad?"

"I..." Zhang Ning paused and looked at her in astonishment.

Zhang Xiaomei took a step forward, raised her head and looked into his eyes: "What if my elder brother treats you like a treasure, and he is as disgusting as a grass, you can only be anxious, and then you will regret it?"

Zhang Ning was thinking about what she said, but his thoughts were caught in his thoughts. He couldn't help taking a step back, as if a cute little girl would bully him, and he said without confidence: "... But I will choose a good family for you, and it shouldn't be like yours. It's so embarrassing to say, the little girl is a likable girl."

"What are you afraid of, brother?" The little girl took two steps closer, her soft breasts almost touching Zhang Ning's body.She continued: "When you left Beijing, Miss Luo and I were together, and I met a young man surnamed Dong in the Yang family. He asked people from the Yang family about my background...My brother was so willing to help me find out Which family is that young man from?"

Sure enough, Zhang Ning suddenly became angry, a male instinct seemed to be being challenged, and his face changed slightly.He suddenly noticed that the younger sister was looking at his face with a smile, and felt that he had been tricked, so he pretended to be nonchalant: "Which family is it?"

"I'm asking you." The little girl said softly.While Zhang Ning was concentrating on sorting out her emotional thoughts, she blew out the candle.

In the darkness, Zhang Ning only felt a weight on his body, and the little girl's soft body fell into her arms. She stood on tiptoe and whispered, "Hold me like the night in my hometown, how about I wake up many nights?" I thought my brother was by my side."

Zhang Ning was silent for a long time, and said: "You are still young and don't understand, but brother has to think about the consequences. If the relationship between us brothers and sisters is not tempered, no matter where we are, we cannot be accepted by the people around us. One day I will not be an official, the same is true, unless we are isolated from the world, but how can a person live in isolation from the world? The key point is that you have grown up year by year, and my brother can't be with you for the rest of my life, so I can't selfishly possess... "

"I just want to be with my brother for the rest of my life. I want my brother to spoil me all the time." The little girl suddenly became willful and hugged him tightly. Well... you are not my real brother, I am not afraid, what are you afraid of?"

After a while, Zhang Ning recounted softly: "This is unfair to you, because you still have a better hope...how should I say it..."

The little girl gently leaned her head on his shoulder: "Brother, speak slowly, I like to hear you talk."

Zhang Ning said: "Then sit down and turn on the lights, let's have a good chat for a while."

"I don't! I want to hold you like this. Don't be so stingy. Let me smell my brother's body for a while. It's so comfortable."

Zhang Ning said slowly: "I always have a sense of reverence for hopeful people, even if it's just a weak little girl. I'm afraid that she will go the wrong way because of me, and she will blame myself when there is no way out..." He thought of Zhou Qiang, the best buddy in his previous life, and sighed, "People change. Although you are so dependent on your brother now, don't worry, let it be, and you will find what you should have slowly. and the temporary longing, maybe it’s just the spring of spring, maybe you think the present is very important, but in fact it’s meaningless after the past. I don’t know how to make it clear, can my little girl understand?”

The little girl nodded: "I'm not a fool, I can understand."

"That's good. I'll take you back to your room. My brother is really tired today." Zhang Ning said wearily.

The little girl gave an obedient "hmm", Zhang Ning looked for the fire booklet and found sparks, lit a candle, and sent her out.Two people, one tall and one short, walked along the eaves and came to the door of the wing room. This scene seemed to have happened many, many times.

"If that person doesn't have the 'hope' that my brother said, but the world doesn't allow us to be together, what will happen to my brother?" The little girl's ghostly mind suddenly thought of a question.

When Zhang Ning was asked this question, he seemed to feel that the chain in his arms was still pinching him, so he whispered: "Dependence is not necessarily an affair between children, I will try my best to be with her."

……

Everything in the world has never had emotions, but if people look at things with lonely eyes, the sunny capital city has no enthusiasm.With the sun shining on him in late autumn and early winter, Zhang Ning still felt that the rows of mansions in the south of the imperial city were gray.

Walking along the avenue paved with stone bricks, towards the majestic imperial city, he tried his best to keep his head up and his chest up in accordance with etiquette.Orally ordered to go to Fengtianmen Yumenmian in the afternoon, but now it was just noon, Zhang Ning waited outside the Meridian Gate after eating and getting dressed.Wait for the emperor to pass the edict, and you can go in immediately, otherwise you can let the emperor wait for you?

After a while, Hu Ying also came. Sure enough, he also came early, and there was Mr. Yan beside him, who also limped along on foot.

Zhang Ning hurriedly cupped his fists to salute, with a friendly smile on his face: "The next official pays homage to Mr. Hu. Hero Yan also wants to meet the saint?"

Both Hu Ying and Yan Ruofei returned their greetings kindly, and Hu Ying said: "Yan Ruofei is also involved in this case, but he hasn't been summoned by the emperor, let him wait here for a while, if the emperor doesn't mention him, he won't go in .”

"So that's the case." Zhang Ning nodded in agreement.

Now Hu and Zhang have become political enemies, but their personal relationship seems to be the same as before.Zhang Ning understands that confrontation doesn't necessarily mean enmity, and alliance doesn't necessarily mean love, so there's no need to be too persistent if you can't help yourself when you come out to hang out.After he thought about it, he said, "I remember that when I first became an official, I was taught by Hu 'Butang' on the way of being an official and controlling others. I have always respected you very much."

This sentence is really suspected of being flattering. Hu Ying pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "An official will always return to the field. You and I are friends who have forgotten the year. Maybe we can have a drink in the red stove in the future."

Zhang Ning said with a smile: "The right way is 'Enjoy the rest of your life with a ladle of turbid wine, and don't dream cold tonight'."

"Ping An writes long and short sentences, well done." Hu Ying said casually, with a correct Chinese character face full of smiles, not annoying.

After a while, someone came out of the imperial city, and they stopped talking and laughing, and stood on the stone bricks in an orderly manner.The eunuch said loudly: "Hu Ying, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhang Ning, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites and System, have come to the imperial gate."

The three bowed together, and the two greeted the decree together.

Hu Ying stretched out her hand to support her hat, tugged at the skirt of her clothes, and walked forward bluntly. He was originally a few ranks higher, and Zhang Ning followed behind.Along the road of the impeccably cleaned imperial city, we came to Fengtianmen.

Zhu Zhanji listened to the government at the imperial gate, as if he had just come over from lunch. There were many memorials and files piled up on the imperial case, and the officials on duty were still early.He stretched out his hand and made a slight movement, and the officials and servants present also retreated.Eunuch Haitao sent the man to the door before standing still.

Zhang Ning had already submitted the memorial, and Zhu Zhanji asked him to summarize the investigation on the spot on the grounds that Hu Ying was in charge of the overall situation.Hu Ying naturally spoke in a direction that was beneficial to him, first of all, evil spirit incense: he thought that this visit to the south could only prove that most evil spirit incense was non-toxic, but he could not deduce that all such things were non-toxic.

Zhang Ning retorted: "I tried my best to take the real thing as evidence. It is really difficult to search for all the evil spirit incense, but a large number of evidences have proved that it is not poisonous. If it becomes poisonous, it must be mixed with other things. Why didn't Master Hu find someone to identify what was mixed in it?"

Hu Ying hinted that the experiment done in the palace last time, he knew how Wang Meiren died, and thought that Zhang Ning didn't know, so it was inconvenient to say it clearly.Everyone insisted on their own opinions for a while, and no one could completely convince anyone, only the emperor Zhu Zhanji's opinion.

At this moment, Haitao's voice was suddenly heard: "The emperor is busy, what is the prince doing...?"
