Chapter 6: In troubled times, no one is innocent
Chen Ning continued to taste wine. Not long after, the man indeed led a group of people to come, carrying wooden sticks, and was fierce and evil.
"Just tear it, come on the tide!" the man pointed at Chen Ning and shouted.
The six people were also cruel enough. Without saying a word, they raised their stick and hit Chen Ning. It would be sore and soft to hit him.
Unfortunately, they met a master.
Two minutes later, six people knelt in a row with bruised noses and swollen faces.
Chen Ning didn't bother them, so he asked them to hit the man alone and couldn't hold back. If anyone let the water go, the consequences...
The brothers died and he didn't die. The six people were apologized and beat the man with one blow, and they all acted ruthlessly, which made Chen Ning unable to see it.
These six people are so cruel. Look at the other party, they are rolling their eyes.
I used practical actions to make this beaten man realize the true face of these good brothers, so as to avoid being bullied by them in the future, and don’t thank myself!
I took a look at my system and the score has become 12/100. I can earn points when I beat people. It's not bad. Chen Ning is more and more fond of the dog system.
Then, Chen Ning left the restaurant.
After walking two streets on the street, Chen Ning turned around and saw the little girl singing the song following him from a distance.
Chen Ning waved and the other party walked timidly.
"Little girl, why are you following me?" Chen Ning asked.
The little girl did not dare to look up at each other, but said, "I'm afraid something happened to my young master. I didn't expect that my young master's martial arts skills are so high. I haven't thanked you yet, thank you for your reward!"
Chen Ning smiled and said, "You deserve it, go back."
The little girl shook her head and said, "The song I sing is not worth so much money, and I have never received so much money."
"I think it's worth it. Don't run around and go home." Chen Ning said again.
The little girl raised her head and asked boldly: "Young Master, can I help you? Just think of thanking you for your reward?"
Chen Ning looked at the little girl in surprise. Although she was thin and weak, she looked very timid, but she had a very personality.
"Okay!" Chen Ning took her to the teahouse next to her, sat down, and asked, "I first arrived in Pengcheng. Tell me about the situation in Pengcheng, such as which aristocratic families are there, which one is the most powerful, what information does Li Yuanxiao's Li family have, etc., do you know some of them?"
The little girl nodded quickly and said, "Young Master, my name is Xing'er. I know a little about what you asked..."
The girl Xing'er is a native of Pengcheng, so she knows the Pengcheng family as much as possible. After her introduction, Chen Ning has a basic understanding of the power of Pengcheng.
As the prefecture of Xuzhou, Pengcheng is naturally the Southeast King Sima Yue. The royal title belongs to a royal family and is above the top-ranking aristocratic families. Moreover, Xuzhou is the fief of Sima Yue, so the Sima family is the local emperor of Xuzhou.
Secondly, it is the top-grade Wang family in Xuzhou.
Speaking of the Wang family, it is quite embarrassing. Although the head of the Wang family is in the position of Xuzhou Prefecture Governor and is also in the Dazhongzheng of Xuzhou, Sima Yue is suppressed, and the position of this state governor is completely dispensable. In other states, the state governor and Dazhongzheng are the highest officials of a state, holding military and political power.
Further down are three middle-grade families, Li, Zhang, and Zhao.
Although the Li family is a middle-grade family, a remarkable Li Yuanxiao came out. Not only was he very skilled in martial arts, but he was also a master of leading troops to fight. Now he was promoted to the fourth-rank General Jianwei. He was Sima Yue's confidant. He managed all the troops in Xuzhou for Sima Yue. He once fought Qingzhou, but Yuzhou could not raise his head.
You can take a look at the topographic maps of Xuzhou and Qingzhou. Why did Dongguan County and Langya County in the north of Xuzhou insert into the hinterland of Qingzhou? They were all captured by Li Yuanxiao.
Until recent years, because Sima Yue was in poor health, Li Yuanxiao's military power was divided, but no one dared to provoke Li Yuanxiao.
...
While listening to Xing'er's introduction, Chen Ning thought.
I have to approach and investigate Li Yuanxiao. Zhao Baoyu's identity is the most beneficial, but how to ensure this identity is very important. Taking advantage of Li Yuanxiao's failure to return home, I have to solve the instability of my identity as soon as possible in the past two days.
In addition, you have to continue to be low-key. It is best not to contact several major families in Pengcheng, as it may also lead to the exposure of your identity.
After thinking about his ideas, Chen Ning pushed the pastry to the girl and smiled and said, "Xing'er, come and have some pastries."
Xing'er nodded and smiled like a flower: "Thank you, Brother Chen Ning!"
As she said that, she picked up a piece of mung bean cake and took a bite. The soft texture made her narrow her eyes.
Chen Ning felt a little sorry for this girl. It was not easy to be able to live in a chaotic world. She was so happy to eat a pastry. She really should have sent the women who only knew how to cry in a BMW in her previous life to this era.
Because the two of them were sitting by the window of the teahouse, several passing beggars happened to see Xing'er and immediately shouted happily:
"It's Sister Xing'er!"
"What is Sister Xing'er eating? The green ones must look delicious."
"That's called mung bean cake. I've eaten it and it's so sweet."
.....
Xing'er heard the discussion, looked around and found that she knew someone she knew, and immediately waved to say hello.
Chen Ning looked at the little beggar outside the window. The four little guys were all unkempt, short and thin, probably only seven or eight years old.
"Do you know them?" Chen Ning asked.
Xing'er smiled shyly and said, "They are little beggars in the city. Sometimes I will give them some food. They are young and often cannot get food."
Chen Ning was stunned after hearing this, then called the teahouse store and packed all the pastries directly, then said to Xing'er, "Take them all and give them."
"Brother Chen Ning, you are a great person!" Xing'er immediately stood up and thanked Chen Ning for the little beggars.
Chen Ning shook his head and said, "Wrong, I'm not a good person, I'm just a newcomer, and my heart hasn't completely cold."
Xing'er couldn't understand Chen Ning's words and then distributed the mung bean cake to the little beggar outside the window. The little beggars ate it voraciously and kept thanking Chen Ning.
"Brother Chen Ning, there are too many pastries. I want to give them to other beggars. Can you help me carry some?" Xing'er asked.
Chen Ning was fine, so he picked up the packaged pastries and followed Xing'er to leave the teahouse.
Xing'er and four little beggars walked in front, and the five people squeaked, as if they had eaten delicious pastries, they became so happy and fulfilled today.
Chen Ning followed slowly, with mottled stone slabs under his feet and wooden houses around him. There was no trace of variegation in the blue sky, and there was no noise of the industrial era. Everything was so calm.
The group passed through an alley and came to a remote open space where there were many beggars, 10 or 20, and they were not young. At this time, they were lined up in an orderly manner. It turned out that a woman wearing a white gauze came here to dress porridge.
"It's Sister Bai!" Xing'er's eyes lit up and she quickly introduced the other party to Chen Ning.
The woman with white veil often comes here to treat porridge to take care of these orphans whose family was destroyed due to the war, but Xing'er doesn't know what her identity is.
The arrival of Chen Ning and others also attracted the attention of the woman. Xing'er sent the pastry to the little beggars, but Chen Ning bowed to the woman and signaled her, but did not come forward to disturb her.
The woman nodded gently and gave her a gift, that's all.
Xing'er ran to the white gauze woman and didn't know what she was talking about. But then the woman looked at Chen Ning a few more times, and Chen Ning realized that Xing'er was talking about herself.
Chen Ning looked at the figure of the woman in white veil. When he saw it, hey... hey... he didn't pay attention just now, this figure is very OK.
Although the white skirt covers it, the place where it should be raised is definitely enough.
At this moment, Chen Ning's tragic memories aroused again. Before crossing, he was asking two foreign princesses to come to see each other by plane and prepare to learn foreign languages well, but he did not expect to crossing.
