Chapter 66: Serving the country with loyalty

Shen Ning followed Li Xiaojie and Li Yunchang to the main hall, and saw Li Yuanxiao chatting with a middle-aged man.

After the three entered, Shen Ning said: "Nephew pays respects to Uncle Li."

Li Yuanxiao nodded with a smile, and introduced, "Liu Shu, this is your third uncle."

Shen Ning bowed his hands and said, "My nephew Zhao Liushu pays my respects to my third uncle!"

The middle-aged man stood up and helped Shen Ning up.

After looking Shen Ning up and down, he smiled and said: "Sure enough, he is a good-looking talent, not bad, it seems that it was right to promise this marriage for Qingkong back then."

"Third uncle Liao praised it." Shen Ning said shyly.

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man changed his voice and asked, "I heard that you killed the son of the Shen family?"

Shen Ning glanced at Li Yuanxiao secretly, saw that his face was expressionless, and he couldn't guess what the third uncle's words liked, so he replied: "Yes."

The middle-aged man said again: "It doesn't matter if the son of the Shen family is dead. It's been 18 years. It should be calm. Besides, I heard that Wang Xiao's son is also in doubt?"

Shen Ning nodded in response.

"My nephew has witnessed many great events since he came to Pengcheng." The middle-aged man laughed.

Shen Ning noticed that there was something else in his words, and he was not sure of his intentions, so he replied: "Nowadays the whole world is troubled, where there is peace in troubled times, the major events are not limited to Pengcheng."

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "That's right. What does your wise nephew think, in today's troubled times, as a man of lofty ideals, how should we deal with it?"

"Of course you are serving the country with loyalty!" Shen Ning said it casually.

"But now there are separatist regimes in various places, treacherous officials are in power, the government is chaotic, and the world is unfair. People with lofty ideals want to serve the country loyally. They are not afraid of dying in battle, but in conspiracy. What do you think?"

"Since ancient times, no one has died, and his loyal heart will be remembered by history! Chao Gang is in chaos, so he should stand up, *****?"

"What a man who has never died since ancient times! What a man who will leave a mark of loyalty in history! No wonder you are praised as a rising star of Confucianism and Taoism!"

"The third uncle praised me. My nephew is not a rising star of Confucianism and Taoism. He is just pursuing the unity of knowledge and action and sticking to his conscience."

The middle-aged man seemed to want to study Shen Ning carefully, and asked many questions. Shen Ning was full of spirits, his family and country were full of hype, and he came out with poems as soon as he opened his mouth.

No matter what you say about the troubled times and darkness, Shen Ning serves the country with loyalty.

If you don't understand the third uncle's mind, then you should stay the same.

Li Yuanxiao sat at the side and listened quietly until the two of them were almost chatting, then said: "It's getting late, let's have lunch. If you two have a good chat, talk after dinner."

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Okay, would my nephew be willing?"

"Nephew's honor." Shen Ning smiled back.

The lunch was peaceful. After the meal, the middle-aged man wanted to continue the chat with Shen Ning. Shen Ning was helpless, always feeling that this person was weird.

When I came to the study, there were only two people in the room.

Shen Ning was about to sit down when the middle-aged man with a smile on his face suddenly said: "You are not Zhao Baoyu, who are you?"

Shen Ning's pupils shrank, but there was a look of astonishment on his face, and he asked in surprise: "What does Third Uncle mean by this? I am not Zhao Baoyu, could I still be Jia Baoyu?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "You are so young, the city is so deep, every move is flawless, and the psychological quality is extremely high, it is really not easy! He must be an extremely human minister, and a treacherous minister."

Shen Ning saw that he was not malicious, so he responded with a smile, and continued to see what the hell he was up to.

The middle-aged man knew that he couldn't deceive Shen Ning's truth, but he continued: "You know, our Li family and Zhao family are family friends. Although the two families haven't met formally for many years, they still have correspondence."

What Shen Ning is most afraid of is the emergence of unstable factors. After all, his plan to pretend to be Zhao Baoyu is a temporary idea, one step at a time, not a long-term plan.

"Does the third uncle think that I am not Zhao Baoyu's because of these letters?" Shen Ning asked.

The middle-aged man shook his head and said: "Of course not, the letters from the two families are about important matters, and the matters of descendants cannot be put on paper."

Shen Ning froze, really wanted to punch him, since you didn't mention it, why?
"Then what is the reason for third uncle's suspicion?" Shen Ning asked again.

The middle-aged man chuckled and said, "Because Meng Xingchen told me."

Shen Ning asked curiously: "Meng Xingchen? Who is he?"

The middle-aged man clapped his hands and said with a smile: "You boy, you are really cautious. You can't be deceived by this, not bad. Let's take a look."

As he spoke, he took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Shen Ning.

After Shen Ning opened the letter, Meng Xingchen's familiar handwriting came into view. Immediately afterwards, Shen Ning's eyes widened and he stood up suddenly.

To his surprise, it was not the letter written by Meng Xingchen, but the name at the beginning of the letter.

"Brother Xiaoru!"

Li Xiaoru is Li Ru, it's hard to be.
"The third uncle's name is Li Ru?" Shen Ning asked quickly.

The middle-aged man touched his beard under his chin, nodded and said, "It's Mr. Li."

Shen Ning was instantly excited. The Li Ru that the system descended on turned out to be Li Yuanxiao's third brother?This is really kissing and kissing.

Afterwards, Shen Ning focused on the letter again.

In the letter, Meng Xingchen asked Li Ru to come to Pengcheng to assist Shen Ning, and at the same time truthfully inform Shen Ning's identity.

So, from the very beginning, Li Ru knew that Shen Ning was a fake. The conversation outside just now was completely a test of his bad taste. Of course, it was also to see Shen Ning's character and ability.

"After your Uncle Meng arrived in Pengcheng, he wrote a book for me and asked me to help you. He knew that there was no one around you to use, and he was afraid that you would not think carefully about something and you would fall into a dangerous situation." Li Ru introduced.

Shen Ning had never heard Meng Xingchen say anything about Li Ru, so he asked, "My third uncle knows my identity and is still willing to help me? And it seems that my third uncle has not told Qingkong's father my true identity. "

Li Ru understood Shen Ning's doubts and said, "Your father not only saved Qingkong's father back then, but also helped the Li family. Meng Xingchen and I are sworn brothers, and we have to contribute both emotionally and rationally. Of course, if You are not good, and I will not assist you, because that is the way to death."

After a pause, Li Ru said again: "Now the Li family is on the cusp of the crisis. If you stand still, you will die, and if you retreat, you will die. You can only bite the bullet and rush forward, and you can't walk the right path, so in essence, There is no difference between us."

Shen Ning understood that Li Ru pointed to the cusp of the storm, and it was Li Yuanxiao's position now.

As the most trusted military commander of the Southeast King, Li Yuanxiao and the entire Li family behind him were tied to the Southeast King's camp, and the Southeast King was seriously ill, his son Sima Haiyun only knew how to eat, and his ability was low. But he is not a direct descendant, so it is difficult to be in charge of the family.

The Xuzhou area is important, and there are many forces eyeing it. The most important thing is that even His Majesty wants the Southeast King to move his nest and send a confidant to guard this place.

So looking around, they are all enemies of the Li family. If one day the emperor wants to move Xuzhou, the first family to deal with is the Li family.

That's why Li Ru said that there is no difference between the fate of their Li family and Shen Ning.

ps: There is another update in the evening, for all the brothers who tipped me to add an update... Cover your face... The grade of this book is not good, so it will be put on the shelf in the morning, and it will explode at that time.
