Volume 3: The world is in turmoil, and the undercurrent continues. Chapter 399: Everyone has their own agendas
The old man took Jiang Ning to the entrance of the village due east. The middle-aged man on patrol glanced at Jiang Ning and the two of them. He was obviously attracted by the appearance of Second Qianxun. He then saluted the old man and said, "Three uncles, these two are...
…”
The old man laughed and said: "The scholar who was robbed said he knew some art of war. He took it to the owner of the village to see. If it is useful, he will stay for a few days. If he tells nonsense, he will also give him food."
The man chuckled, but his eyes stayed on Erqianxun: "What Third Uncle said is that I'm just afraid that Third Uncle, your body won't be able to bear it..."
The old man glared at the man and kicked him: "Get out of here..."
The man left with a smile.
The old man took Jiang Ning to his house. The house was not big, but there were two entrances and two exits. There were servants at the door and maids in the house. Although there were only three or five of them, they were all respectful to him and did not dare to offend him at all.
"Go, get some food, and then invite Professor Luan over." The old man said while sitting in front of the hall.
Jiang Ning hurriedly handed over his hand: "Thank you very much, old man."
"Haha, it doesn't matter..." The old man raised his hand.
"Third uncle, I heard that you brought a stranger back?" A man about twenty years old came directly into the hall. It was none other than Liu Zhenyu, the eldest son of the owner of Liujiazhuang.
Liu Zhenyu is twenty-one years old this year. He is a talented person. Unlike his younger brother Liu Xiaoting, Liu Xiaoting is extremely passionate about martial arts and is even a little crazy. Although he is nineteen years old, his martial arts skills are even better than those of the three sons of the Zhu family.
Two years ago, they played three games in a row in one day, and they were all tied. After coming back, he trained even harder, and now he is above those three people. By the time he was about to go to Zhujiazhuang again, Hu Sanniang had already fled to Liujiazhuang.
Only then did I find out about Zhujiazhuang.
Because of this, Liu Zhenyu really missed Hu Sanniang whom they met two years ago. He was good at both civil and military arts. Although his skills were not bad, he was not comparable to his younger brother. However, Liu Xiaoting actually graduated from a private school.
It's no problem to read and hyphenate words, but it's not possible to do the following.
Liu Zhenyu's attainments in literature are much better than Liu Xiaoting's. He also boasts that he is familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, advocates the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, and is slightly proficient in poetry. Therefore, he is more popular than Liu Xiaoting. After all, the management of the village still relies on knowledge.
It doesn't matter who has the biggest fist, this is what their father proved to them ten years ago.
Therefore, when he learned that Hu Sanniang had come to join him, he was very happy. During the argument with Chen Tong, he argued hard and strengthened his father Liu Peng's determination, saying that he had not misjudged him.
Fortunately, Liu Xiaoting focused on practicing martial arts and didn't care much about management and the village. This is what Liu Peng hopes to see most. With Liu Xiaoting's assistance, Liu Zhenyu will be able to manage the village better than him. At least he will
That's what I was looking forward to.
Just after passing the village entrance, I saw my third uncle Liu Han bringing two strangers into the village. This little girl was very pretty. If she was dressed up, she would definitely be as good as Hu Sanniang. So I thought about it and took a look.
Look, this look didn't matter, she was indeed beautiful, and she immediately greeted Liu Han with a smile.
His third uncle was over fifty, but he had never married. Since helping Liu Peng ten years ago, the number of maids in the family had changed every two or three years. Everyone knew that Liu Han
She was quite prestigious, and the two brothers had followed him since they were children. The village was transformed according to his intentions, and a few maids did not matter to the village.
Liu Han smiled, stood up and introduced: "This is Liu Zhenyu, the eldest son of the owner of the village. What is your name?"
As he spoke, he looked towards Jiang Ning, only to see Jiang Ning cup his hand: "Junior Jiang Liu'er, this is my maid, Qianxun."
"My maid Qianxun, I have met Mr. Liu..." Second Qianxun was slightly blessed, but she looked pitiful.
As a top-notch master, Lin Chong and Guan Sheng may not be able to defeat her, but at Jiang Ning's request, she turned into the person she disliked the most. If Jiang Ning hadn't promised that this would be the only time, and she
Having personally experienced what happened to Wang Ruoyan, she definitely would not agree.
Liu Zhenyu hurriedly stepped forward, choosing to ignore Jiang Ning and help Erqianxun. Erqianxun hurriedly backed away, shrank his hands, and hid behind Jiang Ning. But the more shy he became, the more excited Liu Zhenyu felt.
"Young Master, please forgive me, my master and servant are both dizzy from hunger..." Jiang Ning hurriedly said with a smile.
"What, it's not done yet?" Liu Han urged.
The maid next to her hurriedly brought the meal. Although it was very simple, with only four dishes, for Er Qianxun, who had been starved by Jiang Ning for two days, since she wanted to act, she naturally had to make a full meal.
Jiang Ning bowed, and at the beginning of the period he and Er Qianxun had a polite meal, but later he simply took the chicken drumsticks with his hands and began to eat and drink.
Liu Zhenyu and Liu Han looked at each other and smiled. When they finished eating and the servants collected the tableware, Jiang Ning thanked him again: "Thank you for the hospitality, sir. I cannot thank you enough for your kindness."
"Haha, Mr. Jiang, I just heard that Third Uncle said that you were also killed by Liangshan?" Liu Zhenyu asked.
The two of them were sitting across from each other, Liu Han was sitting in the upper seat, and Er Qianxun was standing behind Jiang Ning.
"Hey, it's a long story. If I hadn't met my uncle today, I am afraid that my master and servant would not be able to leave Shandong. Those Liangshan bandits are really hateful. Don't the officials here just ignore them?" Jiang Ning shook his head.
He asked, clenching his fists.
Liu Zhenyu chuckled: "This matter is a long story, so I might as well not mention it, but there is nothing to be afraid of in Liangshan. Mr. Jiang knows the art of war?"
Liu Zhenyu was talking to Jiang Ning, but his eyes were wandering behind him. He was obviously attracted to Second Qianxun. Jiang Ning was used to this kind of people. He immediately shook his head and held his hands in his hands and smiled: "I know a little bit, I know a little bit.
I dare not compare myself with the young master."
"Hey, there are successive generations of people who have learned the Tao, and there are specialties in the arts. If the young master is really talented and knowledgeable, he can learn from each other even if he doesn't stay in the village for a few days." Liu Zhenyu said.
Jiang Ning hurriedly held up his hands and said: "Now that we are desperate, if the young master is willing to take him in, I would be extremely honored. I don't know that the owner of the village..."
"It doesn't matter, you can just stay here with me. I'll tell you what my father has over there. But how you prove yourself depends on your ability." Liu Zhenyu said: "Young Master must also have an idea of what's going on in Shandong.
, To be honest, since Fangla was besieged and suppressed by the imperial court, the banditry situation has only improved, but there are also many people who occupy the mountain and become kings. There are dozens of leaders in Liangshan alone, plus 30,000 soldiers and horses, occupying eight
With hundreds of miles of water and a favorable location, the imperial court's numerous sieges and campaigns were all in vain. Instead, Liangshan's prestige was greatly enhanced, so it dared to take action against the birthday card."
Jiang Ning said thoughtfully: "So this is the safest place at the moment. What the eldest son said makes sense, and Xiao Ke can learn from it."
The implication is that Jiang and Ning should stay here. A weak scholar and an innocent maid. The scholar's life and death are no longer that important.
"Haha, tell me, how is this Zhuangzi?"
Jiang Ning smiled slightly. The test question had come. He took two steps in the room and said with a smile: "Zhuangzi used the quadruple formation, and what he imitated was Wengcheng. Whether it is to resist the enemy or support it, it is the best strategy."
, coupled with the winding road into the village, the defense is still in place. Under normal circumstances, twice as many enemies can't get here."
"But, there is a flaw..." Jiang Ning changed the subject, not looking as depressed as before.
