Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

In the past few years, what Tang Ning understood most was probably the words "times have changed, things have changed, and people have changed."

The reason why Zhao Yun'er changed from a cheerful official lady to a timid private woman today was because of the sudden change in her family circumstances.

In the past two years, many families in Beijing have been uprooted, and there are also many people who have confiscated their families and exterminated their families. Compared with this, the Zhao family is actually doing very well.

Ruan Xianwei worked very quickly. After Tang Ning sat in the courtyard for a while, two figures pushed the door in from outside.

One of them is naturally Ruan Qiang, the captain of Wanxian County, and the other is Zhao Yun'er's mother.

A few years ago, Tang Ning didn't have a good impression of her. When they were in the same county government, she often made sarcastic remarks to her mother-in-law. Of course, they had similar identities at the beginning, but now one of them is a fourth-grade imperial concubine, while the other has become a contamination. The village woman who is addicted to gambling is no longer comparable.

The moment Zhao Tian entered the door, she was still nodding and bowing to Lieutenant Ruan. When she looked up and saw Tang Ning, her expression was startled at first, then her face darkened and she said angrily: "Why are you here!"

Obviously, she is still brooding over the grudge between the two families.

"Mother!" Zhao Yun'er stood up, ran over in a hurry, and asked, "What are you doing? If it weren't for Mr. Tang, you would still be locked up by the Liang family!"

Tang Ning glanced at her indifferently, then looked at Zhao Yun'er and said, "I'm leaving."

He had already repaid Zhao Yun'er's friendship for Zhong Yi and had no intention of getting entangled with a village woman here.

Zhao Yun'er saw him off and said, "Sir, please go slowly..."

Watching Tangning leave, she closed the courtyard door. When she returned to the courtyard, Zhao Tian looked at her and wondered, "Why is he here? Could it be that he was demoted to Wanzhou? That would be great..."

Zhao Yun'er didn't tell her that Tang Ning was now the prime minister of a country and one of the most distinguished people in the Chen country. She just shook her head and said, "Don't gamble anymore. Next time, I will I can’t save you either…”

"I heard from the county captain that you gave the Liang family 300 taels of silver?" The woman looked at her and asked, "Where did your silver come from?"

Zhao Yun'er was silent for a moment and said, "Master Tang lent it to me because of our past friendship."

"Did he lend it to you?" The woman's eyes lit up and she asked, "How much did he lend you, and do you have any more? I originally won back my capital with interest that day. Give me another 100 taels, and I can If we win back our old house, we won’t have to live in this shabby place anymore…”

Zhao Yun'er said: "I only want 300 taels."

In fact, Tang Ning gave her 1000 taels and returned 300 taels to the Liang family, but she still had 700 taels left in her hand.

But these are needed to maintain the lives of mother and daughter for the rest of their lives. If they were given to her, she would lose everything overnight.

The woman's face showed shame and anger, and she said: "Why are you so stupid? If he is willing to lend you 300 taels, he will definitely lend you 1000 taels..."

Zhao Yun'er looked at her and asked, "How do you ask me to pay him back so much money in the future?"

"Repay?" The woman sneered and said, "Why should I pay back the money I borrowed based on my ability? Besides, this is what he owes our Zhao family..."

"I won't go to him to borrow money anymore." Zhao Yun'er glanced at her and said, "I'm going to cook..."

"300 taels..." Zhao Tian looked at her back with a look of suspicion on her face. When Zhao Yun'er entered the kitchen, she ducked into the back room.

After a while, she looked at a stack of banknotes at the bottom of a box somewhere, her eyes shining brightly.

……

On the street, Ruan Qiang showed an angry look on his face and said: "That Zhao Tian family just now was too rude. My lord saved her, but she..."

Tang Ning waved her hand and said, "A market woman, why bother with her."

Ruan Qiang showed admiration on his face, clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, you are a role model for officials of our generation. Your admiration for your Majesty is like the water of the Yangtze River, which flows endlessly, and like the overflowing of the Yellow River, which is out of control." ,grown ups……"

Tang Ning glanced at him and asked, "How many years has Ruan County Lieutenant been in Wanzhou?"

Ruan Qiang's heart trembled, and he immediately said: "Returning to your lord, I have been sitting in the position of Wanzhou County Lieutenant for ten years..."

"Ten years is not a short period of time..." Tangning looked away and asked casually, "If your official position is to be transferred, where would you like to go?"

After hearing this, Ruan Qiang felt an almost uncontrollable burst of ecstasy in his heart, and said: "If, if it is possible, the official wants to return to Gyeonggi..."

Tangning nodded and said, "I will remember it."

Ruan Qiang's body trembled and he kept bowing: "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir..."

"No need to thank me." Tangning patted his shoulder and said, "You deserve this."

Ruan Qiang sent Tang Ning to the inn where he was staying. He didn't know how he walked home. When he arrived in his courtyard, his feet were still a little unsteady.

The woman stepped forward and asked doubtfully: "Who is that person? You have never shown such respect to the governor before..."

"The governor, the governor is nothing!" Ruan Qiang straightened his back and laughed: "After waiting for so long, I finally waited. We can go back to Gyeonggi. When I go back this time, at least I will be a county magistrate, and I will no longer have to endure those things. Bird's breath..."?

……

Since Tang Ning didn't get any information from Ruan Xianwei about the Wan Gu Sect's general altar or its core members, there was no need to stay in Wanzhou.

But the old beggar didn't know where he had gone. Before entering the mountain, he had to find him first or wait for him to come.

Early the next morning, after Tangning finished washing, she opened the door and saw Lieutenant Ruan standing outside.

Tangning looked at him in surprise and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Ruan County Lieutenant smiled and said: "Xiaguan has been in Wanzhou for ten years and is very familiar with this place. If you want to do anything, just tell me..."

"No need." Tangning waved her hand and said, "What you have to do is, if you have free time, help me find out where the Ten Thousand Gu Sect Headquarters or the various channels are..."

Ruan Xianwei nodded in agreement.

Tangning was about to go back to her room when she suddenly saw a figure standing at the top of the stairs. He walked over and asked in confusion, "Miss Yun'er, is there anything else you can do?"

"No, it's nothing." Zhao Yun'er bit her lower lip and said after a moment: "I just want to ask when Master Tang will leave Wanzhou. I want to see you off..."

Tangning didn't know when the old beggar would come back. After thinking about it, she said, "It will probably take a few days. I will ask Lieutenant Ruan to inform you then."

Zhao Yun'er nodded, then looked at him and asked, "Were you talking about Wan Gu Sect just now?"

Tangning looked at her and asked in surprise, "Do you also know about the Ten Thousand Gu Sect?"

Zhao Yun'er nodded and said: "When I first returned to Wanzhou, my mother and I set up a noodle stall here. Some Gu tribe people from Guizhou often came over to eat noodles. I heard them say that they are from the same lineage of the three elders. It seems like they are fighting for some kind of saint..."

Tangning was surprised: "Do you understand what they say?"

Zhao Yun'er nodded and said, "I have listened to them a lot and learned a little bit."

Tangning asked, "Do you know where they are competing for the Saint?"

"They didn't say." Zhao Yun'er shook her head and said, "But they mentioned where their lineage is..."
