In the end, the deal was not completed, because Liu Ling suddenly realized that something was wrong.

He Guan, as the apprentice of Kong Yiji, the head of the Stealing Sect, naturally did something like stealing chickens and dogs. How could he appear in Tangning's house openly?

And listening to what he shouted just now, it seems that he is still familiar with Tang Ning, and he should still be doing the work of the nursing home for Tang Ning.

Thinking of this, Liu Ling looked at Tang Ning and said, "Who do you know about him?" ”

Tang Ning was still a little anxious, and he said calmly: "This is my senior brother, but it's not a kiss." My master and his master are good friends, and calling him a senior brother is also my master's request. ”

I thought that Liu Ling would question it, but Tang Ning even thought about the connected rhetoric. As a result, Liu Ling nodded and said: "Kong Yiji is also a little talented, and he knows the four ways to write the fennel character of a fennel bean, and it is not an accident that your master knows him."

It's just that your master doesn't know that he is the head of the Stealing Sect? ”

Tang Ning scratched his head and said: "My master has always made friends only based on the level of knowledge, not at what his background is. If the peddler and pawn in the market have something to admire in terms of knowledge, they can also become a good friend of his old man. ”

He Guan couldn't listen to it anymore, and said angrily: "The dead old man's eyes don't grow on his face, but on the top of his head, how can he become good friends with the peddler's pawn?" ”

Tang Ning persuaded: "Senior brother, don't get too deep into the play, your master is your master, my master is my master, it's different." ”

After speaking, he made a gesture vaguely, and when the senior brother saw it, he knew that Tang Ning was going to give him money, so he obediently kept silent.

Liu Ling touched his chin and said, "In other words, why is this now a nursing home in your house?" ”

Tang Ning smiled: "Exactly, I think that my senior brother is wandering the rivers and lakes alone, and it is too lonely."

And you can't always do some stealing things, which has a bad impact. So I asked my brother to come to my house and help me guard the house. ”

Let's see, in the end, it is a sales background, full of nonsense, and when I talk about it, my face is not red and my heart is not beating.

Liu Ling sighed and said, "You are too affectionate, and sooner or later you will suffer." ”

Tang Ning looked like a saint and looked at He Guan and said, "I believe that my senior brother will not do anything to be sorry for me." ”

said this, but in my heart I panicked. God knows if a person like Senior Brother who sees money will bow his head and succumb because of a huge amount of money.

Tang Ning and Liu Ling haven't seen each other for a long time, and the relationship between the two was not bad before. So he diligently invited Liu Ling in, asked Wang Po to fry a plate of beans, and got a plate of salt-boiled bamboo shoots, and the two came to a room, drinking wine, eating vegetables, and chatting.

Liu Ling said with emotion: "Since I left Runzhou last year, although I am in Bianliang, I no longer pay attention to your actions all the time.

Ten gold bought the king of wine and gave it to Zhang Gaotang in Runzhou. Your kid's ability to play with people's hearts is a must, this cost is only a dozen yuan of wine at most, and it can sell you for thousands of yuan, but others don't have such skills. ”

The four words of playing with people's hearts are a little interesting when they come out of Liu Ling's mouth. From Tang Ning's later understanding, it was learned that Liu Ling was not an ordinary imperial city official.

As soon as Zhao Xu ascended the throne, assassins assassinated him. He was originally the guard in charge of the palace ban, and that time in order to protect Zhao Xu, he lost a little finger and almost lost his life, but he finally saved Zhao Xu.

Since then, he has become a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and has traveled all the way to the position of the Imperial City Division.

Very favored by Zhao Xu.

For example, the emperor's secretary may have a deep meaning in every word that comes out of his mouth.

So Tang Ning smiled and said: "It's too much to play with people's hearts, He Rong bought it at such a large price in order to ask Zhang Zhizhou for his guilt."

Actually, my original price was not too high, and if it weren't for this incident, the price of the wine would have been much cheaper. ”

Liu Ling smiled, knowing Tang Ning's thoughts, he no longer cared about this aspect, but changed the topic and said: "But you are still smart, you didn't open your own store, no matter what, you finally didn't bring the hat of a businessman."

Otherwise, it will be difficult for you to advance in your career. ”

Tang Ning smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, I don't have the idea of being an official at all. I guess you know about this matter, but my second master, Master Zhou, seems to be bent on making me an official, and the mountain chief said to me a few days ago that my master had found an errand for me.

I am anxious all day long, I know that I am not the material to be an official at all, let me be an official, isn't it a disaster for the country and the people? ”

The central idea of these words is to tell Liu Ling, no matter what you are doing, don't give me an official position, I am not suitable for this job.

said it more tactfully, Liu Ling estimated that he could understand it. But he turned a deaf ear, and after two sounds, he said: "Zhou Longtu is a very good person and a very capable official, and I am relieved to have him as your master." ”

When Tang Ning heard this, he couldn't help but say, "Didn't you come to him in the first place?" ”

Liu Ling looked at Tang Ning strangely and said, "It's me, what's the problem?" You have lived outside the world for a long time, and you have just entered the WTO, and you have entered a place like Nanshanzhai, and your ideological consciousness is inevitably a little inadequate.

I asked Master Zhou to help discipline you, what's wrong? Besides, Zhou Daren wants to be willing to promote and cultivate young talents, which is a win-win situation. ”

Tang Ning was speechless, you guys win-win, what about mine? I don't have anything......

After speaking, Liu Ling ate the food and took another sip of wine, feeling a little overwhelmed. got up and was about to say goodbye, but Tang Ning hurriedly grabbed him and said, "You're just leaving?" ”

Liu Ling hiccuped and said, "Otherwise? I'm here to see you today. ”

"You're not that angel? You're not here to deliver the Divine Decree? ”

"Of course it is, but it's not yet time. Wait for two days, I will send someone to inform you, and you will accompany Lord Zhou to the palace to be ordered.

By the way, seeing that you have a big business now, I would like to remind you.

When you go out this time, you must arrange everything at home. The place you are going to is very dangerous, it's not that I want to harm you, it's that if you don't get famous, the only chance to come out is like this.

Didn't you say before that there are risks and opportunities? If you survive this time, Jin Jue doesn't dare to say that it is appropriate to add an official.

Take advantage of it, Aning, I'm optimistic about you! ”

Liu Ling was about to leave after speaking, but Tang Ning hurriedly pulled him again and said, "Then can't I take the merit test?" ”

Liu Ling looked at Tang Ning like an idiot and said, "What nonsense are you talking about, is it so easy to test your fame?" You even write crookedly, and you still test your fame?

Practice your handwriting until people can understand it! ”

Tang Ning was annoyed and angry: "Why are you all peeking at my letters? ”

Liu Ling laughed and said: "That's what our secret spies do, since we spy on you, we naturally want to take a look at your correspondence."

。

Tsk, if the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight. In the future, when I ask for a wife, I will tell her the same thing. ”

"You have this kung fu, why don't you help me deal with those stinky monks near my house before!"

"You should find the Buddha Yin for this matter, his status in the White Lotus Society is not low." Liu Ling smiled wickedly: "How is it, do you feel that you have been tricked very painfully now?"

Teach you to be a good man, and when you see these inexplicable old men in the future, the worse you think of him, the better it will be for you! ”

“……”

Liu Ling left, he waved his sleeves, and did not take away the slightest cloud, but left Tang Ning with infinite frustration.

God, who would have thought that the old monk who was extremely sincere and looked honest would actually be a person from the White Lotus Society?

Compared to himself, he is more like a salesperson! He lied from beginning to end, and he didn't see any clues in the old monk's face.

This is talent, Tang Ning can't complain about others, he can only blame himself for too young, too simple Tucson broken.

However, this matter has little to do with it, and the monk near his home has left not long ago and no longer monitors him. Therefore, this account can be put on hold for the time being and will be calculated later.

What worries Tang Ning the most is that Liu Ling just said that his trip was very dangerous, and the meaning of his words was very much to let him explain the rest of the matter before leaving.

Tang Ning thought about it and thought about it, and only came up with one possibility.

That's going to be a war.

Thinking of this, Tang Ning wanted to bury his head in Liu Yier's chest and cry.

In the Song Dynasty, you could do anything, but fighting a war was not a good job.

Since the alliance of the Yuanyuan, there has been a hundred years of peace between the Liao and Song dynasties, and the biggest enemy is the Western Xia. There were many horse farms and good horses in the Western Xia, and many soldiers grew up on horseback, which led to the Song army fighting against the Western Xia, and most of the time there were always two situations.

One is that you can beat but can't catch up, and the other is that you can't beat and can't run.

No matter what kind of situation Tang Ning wants, and listening to the meaning of Liu Ling's words, he is definitely not the kind of position that can lie down and win in the rear.

Tang Ning thought of countless possibilities, but he never thought that they would call themselves to war.

originally knew that he was going to be an official, but Wang Zhongxian said to himself that it was extremely dangerous. Tang Ning estimated that the imperial court had discovered that he was a talent, and wanted to let him go to the Western Xia or Liao State or something like that.

I really never thought that there was such a treatment of talents? I'm also a little money-making expert, and I'm also engaged in invention and creation, in case a stray arrow coated with poison stabs me, wouldn't it be a big loss?

Thinking of this, Tang Ning got up and paced around the room irritably.

When I went to Nanshanzhai in danger, firstly, because the people I thought I cared about were dead, and secondly, it was also to avenge Niu San.

But this time, he didn't have the slightest motivation.

What did the court give him? What did Liu Ling give him? He was used by Zhang He in the first place, and this account is not counted......

If you have to talk about it, Zhou Huai is not bad to himself.

But I'm just proud of my love.

No way! This errand must find a way to destroy him!

So Downing didn't close his eyes all night, and he was sneakily making a plan to sabotage the matter.
