The New Year passed uneventfully. Ning Xiao had no relatives, and these servants even had no relatives. Therefore, Ning Xiao's Zhuangzi spent the last year very peacefully, basically just eating and drinking, and the busy farming season still required a few more days.

It was not until mid-February that there was no work in the fields. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Ning Xiao entered the capital again. At this time, King Duan's men near the house were also withdrawn. It is estimated that they were not found. Whatever clues there were, I gave up.

Ning Xiao came to his hot pot shop alone. The business was still quite good. The entire lobby on the first floor was full at this time, and there was not even an empty table.

Because Ning Xiao had never been to his shop once, the waiter didn't know him. When he saw Ning Xiao coming in, he hurriedly greeted him.

"Happy New Year, sir. Can you please go to the second floor for dinner? There are no empty tables in the lobby. Please forgive me!"

Looking at the attitude of the waiters, Ning Xiao was very satisfied. Unexpectedly, Xiao Qi was quite capable and trained these waiters very well.

"Well, let's go to the second floor!"

After following the waiter up to the second floor, we came to a private room. The decoration of the private room was quite good and elegant.

"Call your shopkeeper here and say my surname is Ning, and he will naturally come to see me."

The waiter glanced at Ning Xiao suspiciously, but didn't say anything. After pouring tea for Ning Xiao, he went out. After a while, Xiao Qi walked in.

"Young Master is here, and I didn't say anything in advance. I was just busy behind the scenes. I hope you will forgive me!"

"Excuse me! You are busy making money for the young master. Where can you blame me? Tell me, you asked me to come over. Do you have anything to say?"

Xiao Qi smiled, walked to the door and gave a few words to the waiter standing outside, then closed the door and walked to Ning Xiao, saying softly.

"Sir, I got some news yesterday. I don't know whether it's true or not, but I thought I'd tell you whether it's true or not.

A few days ago, I met the servant of my former master's family. He is now working as a servant in a family in Jizhou Prefecture. He accidentally discovered a military camp in a mountain in Jizhou Prefecture. According to his guess, the military camp There are at least tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in it. "

Ning Xiao glanced at Xiao Qi strangely when he heard this. He was very curious about why Xiao Qi told him this. He stared at Xiao Qi closely for a long time. Xiao Qi's face looked a little pale, and then he said softly.

"Why are you telling me this?"

When Ning Xiao asked, he unconsciously suppressed the supernatural power on Xiao Qi's body, causing him to kneel on the ground unconsciously.

Xiao Qi was lying on the ground with a pale face at this time, and said with a trembling voice.

"Young Master, please forgive me. This is a wild guess made by me. If I did something wrong, please spare my family. I will let you do whatever you want!"

Ning Xiao looked at Xiao Qi expressionlessly.

"Say it! You'd better be able to convince me with your reasons, otherwise, you won't be able to leave here alive today!"

Ning Xiao's words were very calm, as if he was asking, "Have you eaten?" There was no ups and downs, which made Xiao Li feel even more uneasy, but he still managed to calm down.

"Please forgive me for making wild guesses about the young master. When the young master asked us to leave our house in the capital and go to Zhuangzi, we realized that the young master might have a grudge against Prince Duan's Mansion. Later, the young master asked his subordinates to come to the capital to manage. While at the hot pot shop, the subordinates consciously inquired about Prince Duan's Mansion.

Later, the more I learned about it, the more I discovered that Prince Duan’s Mansion was connected to Prince An’s Mansion in Jizhou. According to some rumors in the capital, my subordinates also knew about the relationship between Prince Duan and Prince An. When they got the news from Jizhou, they thought Then tell the young master, hoping to help the young master.

Because the subordinate's master is the master, and only when the master is well can the subordinates be well, so the subordinate told the master the news he got yesterday, hoping to help the master. "

After Xiao Qi finished speaking, he didn't dare to raise his head. He just lay on the ground and didn't dare to move.

Ning Xiao smiled silently. He really didn't expect that Xiao Qi was so sensitive and thought so much through some things. It seemed that he was a good helper. However, Ning Xiao still couldn't trust him for the time being, so in When he looked at Xiao Qi lying on the ground, a mental suggestion directly came to Xiao Qi's mind. Only in this way could he avoid the possibility of betraying him.

Xiao Qi naturally didn't know that he had been given mental hints silently and unknowingly. He just felt that he could never betray the young master in the future, and everything must be done with the young master's affairs as the priority.

"Well, you did a good job. This matter is very important. You go down! Give me a hot pot, sir. I haven't had lunch yet!"

Hearing that the young master praised him, Xiao Qi was greatly relieved and stood up quickly with a smile.

"Sir, please wait a moment. When I just learned that the master has arrived, my subordinates have already arranged for people to prepare. I think it is ready by now. I will arrange for people to bring it up."

After Xiao Qi went out, Ning Xiao was thinking about whether to give all his servants mental hints. Although he did not have mental powers, he was reborn in various worlds to do tasks, and his mental power was still very good. Although his mental strength is not high, as a person with supernatural powers, he can still do this.

Well, let's do it like this. I took the time to put all the servants under mental suggestion. I remembered that I didn't use mental suggestion in the first two tasks. The main reason was that I wouldn't stay there for too long in the first life task. , there is absolutely no need to waste your mental energy.

The second life was in modern times. At that time, there were no servants available, so there was no need to use mental power. In this life, I did use it, but it was just for my own safety, and it didn't hurt them. Just to prevent them from betraying themselves.

After having lunch, Ning Xiao left the hot pot shop and prepared to go back to Zhuangzi outside the city. He rode on his horse and thought about what Xiao Qi had said. He could hide tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Jizhou Fu Mountain. It seemed that King An I have had the desire to rebel for a long time, but now I am just waiting for an opportunity.

This opportunity is probably when the current emperor dies, but now the old emperor is said to be in good health and shows no signs of dying. It seems that King An and King Duan have a long time to wait, but they just don’t know this. Do the people in the prince's lineage know about the news? Ning Xiao is also considering whether to inform the prince's lineage about this?

Ning Xiao is not in a hurry for this task. There are still several decades to come, and his body is only sixteen or seventeen years old now. If he completes the task early, will his future life be a bit complicated? Too boring?
