Chapter 140 Angry back laughing

Humanity is, if you want others to know, you have to do nothing.Welcome to reading Zhang Ning has long been mentally prepared for the predicament he is facing now. On the one hand, he is "loyal" to the court, and on the other hand, he is colluding with Jianwen's party members. Sooner or later, the matter will be revealed. Method.

"I'll leave the main altar of the evil cult in a while. You send someone to take us out." He pondered for a while outside the bead curtain and said, "The arrangement to accept the emperor's summons in advance has to be cancelled."

Yao Ji sounded a little dissatisfied: "I know this matter is very important, but the emperor came here on a special trip, and knowing that you canceled the trip for other things, I must think that you don't value him, which will affect the emperor's impression of you."

Zhang Ning didn't think about it for a while, and said bluntly: "Which is more serious, losing the emperor's favor or being wanted by the court?"

"What do you mean by talking like that?" Yao Ji said angrily, "Come in!"

For some reason, Zhang Ning's stubborn temper broke out again at this time, and he said: "You just got up with disheveled clothes. What do you say when I go in? If you have anything to say, I can hear you."

Yao Ji opened the beaded curtain at once, stared and said, "I'm your mother, so I can't call you anymore? I don't even know a little bit of etiquette, how did Confucius teach it!"

Her angry look still has a special charm, it's because her face is too pretty.However, her anger didn't look like she was being coquettish, maybe she was really angry, and her chest trembled slightly under the ups and downs; Zhang Ning was involuntarily attracted attention, and saw that the collar of the stand-up jacket she was wearing was not adjusted properly, and there was a piece of her collarbone. Ruyu's skin is still exposed, somehow only a small piece of skin is exposed, but it is even more arousing to people's wild imagination.

However, when Zhang Ning thought about her choreographing the dance with great interest, his emotions became more complicated, and he said in his heart that he didn't care about it: "You have already guessed, since one of the important purposes of the emperor's coming down in person is to see you. Then I will not let the emperor come here in vain, whether I am here or not."

"You..." Yao Ji stomped her feet, and a moment later she suddenly burst out laughing, her face blushing.

Zhang Ning looked at her in astonishment, and thought: Is this the so-called laughing back from anger?

She may also realize that now is not the time to laugh, so she quickly lowered her face on purpose and said, "Come in and say, there is a door outside, and it's not good to be heard us making noise."

Perhaps it was the smile just now that changed Zhang Ning's mood slightly, so he followed in obediently.

"You still have trouble with me." Yao Ji gradually calmed down her anger and returned to her usual calmness. Gradually, her voice became softer and she said softly, "The emperor is old, and the kind of thing you think will not happen. .”

Zhang Ning looked at her face suspiciously: "Didn't you say last night that the emperor is happy and is going to bed?"

Yao Ji looked unnatural, and said, "Is this something you should ask?" Soon she put on a straight face, and said sternly, "You actually got into trouble with me over this kind of thing, what's the matter with reading the truth, what do you think?" Think about it. Is this right or wrong? You don’t know right from wrong, black from right!”

Speaking of this, Zhang Ning was speechless, and secretly sighed slightly, there is nothing to argue, who doesn't understand the truth?He then turned his head to avoid Yao Ji's pretended stern gaze, just in time to see the crooked desk with the guzheng in the corner, as if it had just been moved, he looked down without thinking much, and saw the desk The lower stone slab was not covered properly, and there were still gaps.

He suddenly understood that he and Dong Xue had been calling outside for a long time just now but no one answered, maybe Yao Ji was in the secret room at that time.Zhang Ning went into that secret room, with no door, no window and stones all around, no wonder it was not easy to hear the movement in the yard.

Yao Ji followed his gaze, her face flushed with shame when she just spoke up, as if she wanted to find a crack in the ground to sneak in.Although the flushed face could not be concealed, she quickly returned to her nonchalant appearance, her straight back and neck made her look dignified and virtuous.

At this time, Zhang Ning immediately felt very embarrassed. He really saw it by accident, and he didn't have the idea of ​​peeping into her privacy and embarrassing others.Now I have no choice but to play dumb, don't mention that, let alone explain, it's the best way.

He looked to the left and talked about it, changed the subject and said, "I've thought about it, and I can't give up my official position now, so I hope you can help me explain and apologize in front of the emperor. My two entourages should be ready later." I have to go back as soon as possible and try to make up for it.”

Speaking of this, Zhang Ning's face was a bit lost and sad, and Yao Ji looked at it, and suddenly felt inexplicable sympathy in his heart.

Yao Ji said softly: "If it is impossible to remedy, you should make arrangements early to come to Mother, and I will do my best to protect you."

After hearing this, Zhang Ning sighed, shook his head slightly, did not say anything, and said after a while: "Since I said goodbye, there is nothing else to do, I will go out to see Peach Blossom Fairy and the others. You will wait Send me someone."

After finishing speaking, he bowed, turned around and walked over to lift the curtain and was about to leave when Yao Ji suddenly asked, "Did my mother not do a good job, making you look down and disappointed?"

Zhang Ning said dejectedly: "How could it be? Why should I ask too much?"

"Then why are you sighing?" Yao Ji looked at him emotionally.

"I lament my...feeling of powerlessness, and I don't know what to do to get rid of the fate of being manipulated by the world." Zhang Ning suddenly turned around and looked Yao Ji bravely, "I lament the daily thoughts of the past few months, In fact, they are all wrong, and only when we meet do we know that we are thousands of miles apart."

After hearing this, Yao Ji showed anxiety, and hurriedly said, "I also think about safety every day."

Zhang Ning pondered for a moment, thinking that she only had one son, even if she hadn't seen her for more than twenty years, how could she not care about him?Human nature.He nodded: "Well, after today's farewell, I will always miss you, please take care."

After Zhang Ning finished speaking, he went out. After a while, Zhang Ning's voice came from outside, as if he was talking to his entourage.Yao Ji was sitting in a daze in a disturbed state of mind, when she heard the voice, she remembered the business, hurried to the door and called, "Come here."

When someone answered outside, she ordered someone to escort Zhang Ning out of the mountain.Because she got up in a hurry, although she had put on her clothes, she didn't have time to take care of her face and hair, so she didn't go out to meet people with this appearance.

She paced back and forth in the room for a long time, feeling confused, finally opened the door, looked left and right, and the courtyard had returned to tranquility, only one attendant was still watching the night in sight.Yao Ji then asked: "Have the guests left?" The attendant hurriedly replied: "Dongxue protector arranges the staff personally, and has sent the three distinguished guests away."

Yao Ji then returned to the room, opened the bead curtain and saw the crooked table and the cracks in the stone below, felt ashamed and inexplicably angry, hurriedly went up to tidy up the entrance of the secret room, and was about to push the table back In the same place, when she got angry, she slapped her palm on the strings to vent her anger. Unexpectedly, the thin strings cut her fingertips, and blood gushed out instantly.

She pinched the wound quickly, and the tears slid down her cheeks and dripped onto the floor.It's all the fault of that Chunmei, who came here late at night to inform, saying that the affairs in the wing room are so small that people can't sleep.

Yao Ji looked back at the room with tears in her eyes, and could easily imagine the scenery outside the yard, which was so familiar.It is said that it is like a paradise, but being in this square inch all day long, it is inevitable that there will be depression in the heart. It is good to adjust the mood at ordinary times, but occasionally it will be very uncomfortable like now.

She suddenly had a thought that she felt selfish: Zhang Ning would come to her if he couldn't survive in the officialdom.Although it would be difficult for him to be successful in the future, at least he has someone close to him by his side.

But she gradually became rational again, and her only reliance was Zhang Ning. If he was worn down to the point where he was useless in the future, who would he rely on then?

……

A group of three people were escorted out of the mountain by the believers inside the evil spirit sect, and the sky gradually turned pale, and the believers left on the post road before returning.Zhang Ning then told Peach Blossom Fairy and Wenjun to get on their horses and drive quickly, and they drove towards Changde Mansion without stopping.

While thinking on horseback, he discussed with Peach Blossom Fairy: "Before we were unable to catch Zhan Zhuli, it is not easy to catch him now. The key person in this matter right now is Wu Yong, and we can only learn from him." Think of ways to."

Peach Blossom Fairy is also actively making suggestions: "Master Zhang's purpose is to prevent things from being reported to them. It is useless for us to only deal with Wu Yong. As long as one person misses out, we will lose everything... Is there any way to use Wu Yong to lure Zhan Zhuli?" come out?"

Zhang Ning thought hard and had no idea, so he had to analyze step by step: "If Zhan Zhuli no longer takes the risk of contacting Wu Yong, and goes straight north to report, we really have nothing to do. There are many roads from Changde Mansion to the capital. How can that manpower be intercepted in such a short time..."

For example, a few years ago, Yu Qian led people to escape from Nanjing. The situation was much more difficult than that of Zhan Zhuli now. First of all, Yu Qian was exposed to the sight of his opponents at that time, but now Zhan Zhuli is alone in the dark and no one knows that he is in the dark. Where; secondly, Zhou Ne had more manpower than Zhang Ning now.If so, both Yu Qian and Zhang Ning successfully got rid of the siege and interception at that time; and Zhan Zhuli has good skills and experience in the world, so it may not be too difficult to successfully get rid of the siege.

After hearing this, Peach Blossom Fairy persuaded: "At most, Zhan Zhuli has seen something, but he has no physical evidence. He is just running errands around Wu Yong, and he can't get in touch with the bureaucrats above. He may not dare to do such a thing. Advocate. I think he should try to contact Wu Yong first and let Wu Yong make up his mind."

"I hope so." Zhang Ning said.

Peach Blossom Fairy saw that he had been frowning lately, so she couldn't help but said softly, "Master Zhang, don't worry too much. If Zhan Zhuli saw you entering the cult, he wouldn't have expected that we would react and make arrangements soon. Hurry back to Changde Mansion and try to contact Wu Yong."
