"Sir, are you really going?" Wang Ruoyan rubbed his temples, held his chin with both hands, and asked seriously.

Jiang Ning smiled slightly: "I still have to go there. I'm afraid it will be a little difficult just relying on Brother Xu."

"My husband just needs to tell him what to do. Your martial arts skills are far inferior to Brother Xu." Wang Ruoyan pouted: "Besides, on August 15th, the clan will have an early settlement meeting, and there will be clan meetings this time.

My uncle will also come, and it seems that the impact of this incident has been far greater than expected."

Jiang Ning nodded, knowing that Wang Ruoyan was extremely worried about him when he said this, but judging from the news Xu Ning brought back last time, things were not as simple as he thought. Although the three lost goods,

There are only tens of thousands of taels, which is of no concern to the Wang family, but the Wang family's goods cannot take the Qinling Mountains. They have to take a detour to the Qinling Mountains, which is 800 miles away. How can this be done?

"Today is the third day of July, and there are still one month and twelve days left. Counting the distance, it can be at least half a month, or at most a month, and we will be back," Jiang Ning said.

"Hey..." Wang Ruoyan sighed. Seeing that Jiang Ning had made up his mind, he couldn't stop him any more, so he had to say: "My husband, please be more careful and bring more money with you. If something happens, use some money."

."

Jiang Ning stood up and nodded: "Don't worry, you and I will treat each other as good friends. Good people have their own destiny."

After saying that, he walked towards the door. Wang Ruoyan also stood up, followed Jiang Ning downstairs, walked to the door of Bieyuan, and straightened Jiang Ning's clothes: "Ms. sir..."

Jiang Ning knew that Wang Ruoyan was not ready yet, so he would not force others to do anything. He stretched out his hand and scratched Wang Ruoyan's nose and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Brother Xu is here."

After saying that, Xu Ning had already led the fast horse and arrived in front of Jiang Ning. Jiang Ning got on the horse and clamped his feet. The brown horse suddenly raised its hooves forward, neighed, and rushed out of the alley carrying Jiang Ning.

.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one dares to touch Brother Jiang..." Xu Ning clenched his fists, held a spear in his hand, clamped his legs, and quickly chased Jiang Ning.

Wang Ruoyan looked at Jiang Ning's figure, her heart tightened suddenly, and she shouted towards the alley: "Ms. sir... I'm waiting for you to come back..."

"Isn't this Ruoyan? What? Your husband is out?" The person who spoke was Wang Xinghe. Now he didn't even bother to call his sister, and directly called Wang Ruoyan's name. He was no longer the shameless borrower he used to be.

It's quite an attitude of adding insult to injury.

Wang Ruoyan didn't want to talk to this cousin and said coldly: "I went out to do some errands and I will be back in two days."

"Husband and wife are birds of the same forest. Haha, Ruoyan, I think your husband is unreliable. If it weren't for this trash, the Wang family wouldn't be in such a difficult situation now, broom star." Wang Xing is used to the unobstructed mouth of the river.

, now it’s Wang Ruo again

When Yan was in trouble, he wouldn't have cared so much. In his opinion, Jiang Ning was already showing mercy by not persuading Wang Ruoyan to divorce. As long as a daughter's family returns to the status of husband and godson, now is the best time.

the result.

Wang Ruoyan glanced at Wang Xinghe and sneered: "As long as you try your best, my second uncle won't still be out of trouble. If you have such leisure, you should take care of your own business."

After saying that, he turned around and entered the yard, leaving Wang Xinghe slightly stunned, but he never thought that Wang Ruoyan would protect Jiang Ning like this. He had no intention of blaming Jiang Ning. He quickly came back to his senses and sneered: "Huh, let's go.

Let's see how long you can stay strong..."

The two rode horses and passed by Liu Ji. Liu Sisi was already waiting at the door. She also took a package in her hand and handed it to Jiang Ning: "Young Master, be careful along the way. Sisi has brewed wine and will wait for the Young Master when he comes back."

Jiang Ning smiled and nodded: "Then you should prepare more, haha..."

Xu Ning also laughed on the side, but saw a person walking out of Liu Ji's shop, tilting his head and saying: "Hey, where is the lover?"

Except for Su Yun'er, there is no one else who can speak like this. What's more, she is beautiful and moving, and her every move is very spiritual. Although what she said is not pleasant, it can be said that she said what Liu Sisi did not dare to say. Seeing Liu Sisi's cheeks were slightly red, she glared at Su Yun'er.

But I heard Su Yun'er laugh and say: "Yesterday, my sister said that you guys are going on a long trip. I guess it will take ten days and a half. I'm not as careful as my sister. There are some food in here, so it's for me, Su Yun'er." Just to express my feelings, don’t worry, I will definitely be able to take care of my sister if you are not here."

After saying that, she pulled Liu Sisi into the door. Liu Sisi held on to the door frame with her hands. When she looked back, she felt a sense of separation between life and death. A feeling of reluctance slowly flashed in her eyes, which made Jiang Ning feel sad. But he could only force a smile and ride away.

The two left Hangzhou City and headed north, following the official road. After leaving Hangzhou, they rarely saw farmland and villages. Occasionally, there was smoke from cooking, and they were only three or five households. Naturally, they were incompatible with future generations. Comparatively, but the Great Xia Dynasty still had relatively clear regulations on the management of officialdom.

Between prefectures, there is a post station every hundred miles. The inn station is not big, but built around the inn station is a medium-sized village with only a few dozen households, teahouses, restaurants, and inns. There is only one of them, and the business is between vendors and pipelines, and the prices are higher the further away from the state capital, and most counties and villages will not be located near pipelines, which can range from a few miles to hundreds of miles. It is extremely valuable to avoid obstacles to officialdom.

The 800-mile Qinling Mountains are not far from a prosperous place like Hangzhou. One-third of it is within the boundaries of Zhenan Prefecture. It is separated from Hangzhou by Yuzhou and Hakka, which are only 300 miles apart. , the horse arrived in about five days. Jiang Ning and Xu Ning did not stop at all on the road. Finally, on the evening of the fifth day, they arrived at a town at the foot of the Qinling Mountains called "Nanwan Town".

When the two of them arrived in the town, it was already approaching evening. The July sky was already very long. If we were in cities like Hangzhou at this time, we might have just started to finish our meals. Restaurants, brothels, and West Lake were just starting to get lively. In Nanwan Town, there were few people walking on the road. Occasionally, one or two carriages passed by, also in a hurry, and every door was closed.

Seeing that Jiang Ning was a little confused, Xu Ning immediately explained: "Brother, don't be surprised. A few miles away is the Qinling Mountains. It can be regarded as the last town to enter the Qinling Mountains. After crossing the Qinling Mountains, you will arrive at Ningshan Mansion. It's not The boundaries of Zhenan Prefecture, plus the eight hundred miles of Qinling Mountains, there are countless bandits hidden there. Ningshan Prefecture and Zhenan Prefecture have suppressed bandits every year, but the banditry has never stopped. At the beginning of the year, there were refugees again The number of bandits in the Qinling Mountains is only increasing. There should be some ideas in these towns. Every move is related to the mountains. It is better during the day, but at night, everyone is in danger. ."

Jiang Ning sighed and said: "That's right. No one wants to leave the place where their ancestors have lived for generations. No matter how cruel the bandits are, they still need to eat, drink and have sex. They will not destroy the town. At best, they are just those things. Once

If we move people, we are afraid that the two governments will encircle and suppress us again, haha, the gain outweighs the loss."

"Let's stay here first and find a friend to inquire about the situation." Jiang Ning added.

Three batches of the Wang family's goods were intercepted in this Nanwan town, which is why Jiang Ning came here this time.

"I have been here once, and I am somewhat familiar with it. There is a leader in the town, who is known as Yang Heng, the one-eyed beast in the world. He is relatively familiar with every family in the Qinling Mountains. He regularly collects protection fees and sends them to protect the town.
