The moon comes to take pictures

The pane shook, and the servant outside looked into his eyes: "Master, what's the matter?"

Ning Ruichen put down the window awkwardly, sat back on the soft chair, warmed his hands on the fire, feeling a little restless.

As soon as the door opened, it was Ning Yuquan who came back, his face was tired, he pinched the bridge of his nose, he shook his sleeves and sat down. "Don't go out today, I only caught a few who made trouble last night, and I don't know how many are in the city." Ning Yuquan drank two sips of tea, and couldn't hide his worry between his brows.

"They have private soldiers, why don't they go..."

Ning Yuquan knew what he was going to say, so he buckled the teacup: "The Japanese pirates ran away after killing someone, and the yamen of the Ministry of War can't grow legs." He continued: "The private soldiers hired by these people are all from the army. He has some skills, killing people is like slaughtering cattle and sheep, taking advantage of the chaos, many gangsters also come out to cause trouble. Nanzhili County Government and Dali Temple are crazy busy, this year, I don’t think everyone will have a good time.”

Ning Ruichen was terrified. Hearing the elder brother's voice, Nanjing City seemed to be turning into a purgatory on earth, full of murderous executioners everywhere.

"It's so easy for people to break into the Ministry of War?" Ning Ruichen didn't dare to think, if the Ministry of War is heavily guarded like this, what about other yamen.

"So I think it's an inner ghost." Ning Yuquan picked up the teacup again and blew, "Otherwise, it wouldn't be such a coincidence that someone would shoot in just when the defense was changed. It's just this time..." He He murmured, "It's hard to explain to Beijing!"

Yes, how do I explain this?Where do I start to explain?

Did it start from the fact that the war against the Japanese in Zhejiang was tight and the Ministry of War in Nanjing refused to lend a helping hand, or did it start from the fact that dozens of businessmen were detained and blackmailed, and their souls were lost?The Minister of Southern Zhili was beaten to death by bandits in the yamen. This is an earth-shattering event. Beijing will not ignore it.

It was the eve of the Beijing inspection, and I don't know how many people were secretly working hard. Cui Xiang from Beijing, Chang Xi who was like a fish in water, and the literati society who secretly formed cliques and waved the flag to rebel against eunuchs, Ning Yuquan's heart was pounding, The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, as if the knife had already fallen on my neck, I grabbed Ning Ruichen's hand and solemnly told: "Don't go out these days!"

Ning Ruichen thought that the situation was so urgent that he couldn't turn back. It's not like he didn't hear about those people who came and went like mountains and seas of fire.

"Brother and father are walking in the officialdom, please take care, the storm is hard to calm down, so be careful."

Ning Yuquan sighed: "It's good that Rui'er understands."

Ning Ruichen wanted to comfort his elder brother, but he only showed a wry smile.In front of him is such a large mother-of-pearl screen with vivid patterns of flowers and birds. Just last night, he thought that this year would be smooth and rainy, and his wishes would come true...

He looked at the flickering charcoal star, living in a deep house, of course safe and sound, but under the hut of the poor monk, in front of the lonely stupa, he could no longer go to the precious and important promise in exchange for it.

The clinker had just entered the night when an uninvited visitor broke into the cardamom booth.

Gritting her teeth, Liu Jiao knelt down on the ground, kowtowed at Ning Ruichen's feet, and begged hoarsely, "Master Ning! Saving people is like putting out a fire!"

The vines on the cloud wall have withered, but the dead leaves on the tiles have not fallen off at all. Liu Jiao came in from a hole in the ground, hiding from the servants all over the garden, like wild dogs, covered in dirt, but That beauty does not diminish at all, but is so pitiful and heart-wrenching.

"Master Ning, save my master!" Liu Jiao grabbed the life-saving grass, biting her lips pale.

It's also because of Yuan Junyu, the one-sided meeting actually taught Ning Ruichen to let go of his guard: "Get up quickly, you just said, what's wrong with your master?"

"Young Master must know about the major events in Nanjing. Eunuch Chang and the Ministry of War are close, and he is afraid that it will be over! This morning, someone from Eunuch Chang... took Master away!" Liu Jiaoyue said more and more anxiously, breathless Come up slowly and cough earth-shatteringly.

The servant who was watching the night outside heard it, and asked through the door with a lantern: "Master, did you catch a cold? Will you bring some ginger soup later?"

The swaying lamp shadow made Liu Jiao frightened for a moment, he shouldn't be so reckless, what if this kid from a rich family... He quietly touched the small dagger tied around his ankle.

Ning Ruichen coughed slightly, and said to the door: "It's okay, I'm choking on drinking water, you can go on with your work."

"Master, go to bed early." The rustling sound was the night watchman descending the steps.

Falling back into his stomach in one breath, Liu Jiao secretly rejoiced that he saw the right person, but he changed his mind about this idiot.

"You said Chang Xi took him away?" Ning Ruichen turned around, seeing Liu Jiao's face full of vigilance and hadn't put it away, so he didn't think much about it: "It's also a critical time for him, why is he thinking of taking him away? Your master?"

That is to say, maybe Chang Xi didn't want to kill Yuan Junyu.Liu Jiao was stunned for a moment, and muttered: "I saw those eunuchs coming, I didn't think so much..."

"Master is very popular with Chang Xi, and even if he knows Chang Xi's secrets, he may not be sure. If he steps on him at this time, he will definitely be finished." Liu Jiao dawdled, and said such a sentence.Seeing that Ning Ruichen was still in deep thought, he said again: "That guy is cruel, you don't know how cheap human life is to him!"

"If this is the case, Eunuch Chang will put him in Lanquan Temple..." Ning Ruichen paused, and stopped talking in time, "Now that he is taking people away, there must be a need to keep them."

Ning Ruichen blinked: "It is very necessary."

Liu Jiao lowered her head, vaguely felt that Ning Ruichen was right, but still couldn't let go of her worries: "Okay, I'm a bad singer, I can't beat you."

He got up quickly, patted the mud on his body, and said in a fit of anger, "I'm leaving, and I will save my master alone."

This is a bit of a child's temper. Ning Ruichen has never coaxed children before, and he has always been coaxed by others. At this time, he could only say: "When this is such a mess, you can stay with me. I will find out about your master's affairs." people to do it."

Unexpectedly, Liu Jiao was still furious, raised his eyebrows, and said, "What's the matter?"

"Nanjing City," Ning Ruichen said earnestly, wanting to reach out to touch the child's head, but was avoided, "It is said that those who killed the Minister of the Ministry of War are killing people outside. How long will you settle here with me?" Let’s wait for the defenders outside the city to calm down the chaos, and then—”

"Where did you hear the story?" Liu Jiao stared at her round eyes, clearly saying what she loves and what she hates: "There is no chaos, everyone is celebrating the New Year happily."

Ning Ruichen was taken aback.

Nanzhili is indeed not a mess like the big brother said.

After New Year's Eve, the main forces who invaded the Ministry of War died down, and those who were caught outside were all robbed under the guise of a banner. When the common people heard that they had attacked the Ministry of War, they hardly dared to resist, and obediently paid money to keep them safe.The government officials rounded up and caught Li ghosts, and after half a day, those local ruffians did not dare to show their heads.

The death of a Minister of the Ministry of War is not the death of his own father or mother. The common people should make trouble and be happy. There are only a few days of Coke throughout the year. How can they not rush to live a comfortable life.

Seeing his hesitation, Liu Jiao frowned: "If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself."
