Chapter 1152

I only heard Ni Jinkang say: "you have heard my father's name, and you probably know why my father wanted to go back to the field."

Cui Zhonglei shook his head: "I don't know about this. It's only because general Ni resigned soon after I became an official, and he stayed away from the capital in anonymity."

Ni Jinkang said: "at that time, the border was in a critical situation. My father volunteered to fight in the northern frontier. After returning to Beijing, my father thought of the soldiers who had died in the war at the border. He resigned his official post to his majesty and took his family members away from the capital. However, he did not know who was jealous and tried to kill my father repeatedly! It was so easy for my father to get rid of those people. He took my mother and Xiaomin to Lan county and took root here. "

Hearing this, Cui Zhonglei asked, "after you came to Lan county, did the assassin still appear?"

Ni Jinkang shook his head: "it's never happened again, but my father is very sensitive. From then on, he lived in a simple and easy life and didn't go out of the house easily. So my door is locked day and night in case of intruders. "

Cui Zhonglei suddenly realized: "no wonder the door wall of your mansion is high and thick!"

Ni Jinkang nodded and said, "exactly. In addition, my father also blocked all the doors and windows of his study with bricks, leaving only a small door in and out. There is only one key to this door. My father always takes it with him. As soon as he enters the study, he will lock it immediately. My father has locked himself in for many years, reading or writing without interruption. "

Cui Zhonglei said: "I see. So I can't see general Ni today? "

Ni Jinkang was very embarrassed and said, "I'm really sorry If you don't dislike it, why don't you stay at home? My father is sure to come out at lunch

All of them could hear that Ni Jinkang didn't really invite each other, but Cui Zhonglei accepted and said with a smile, "that's a nuisance!"

Ni Jinkang was stunned and said with a smile: "thank you for your kindness. Xiaomin will go down to arrange it now!" Then he ordered his servants to serve tea, and he arranged lunch.

A girl offered tea and retreated in fear.

Cui Zhonglei can't help but wonder. He asks Wang man in a low voice: "Wang man, why do I look so scary?"

Wang man grinned: "who doesn't know that Mr. Cui is more beautiful than pan an, and that every girl wants to salivate when she sees him?"

Cui Zhonglei was dumbfounded and said, "you are used to flattering! But how could this girl be so scared when she saw me? "

Wang man disapproved and said, "Your Majesty is very powerful. Girls in small places have never seen the world. They are afraid."

Cui Zhonglei asked, "Gao Rong, what do you think?"

Gao Rong turns a deaf ear and only looks at a certain position. Cui Zhonglei stares at him with great interest.

Wang man couldn't take a look, so he touched him with his elbow. He was dissatisfied and said, "my Lord is talking to you!"

Gao Rong gently "ah" A: "adults call me? What can I do for you, my lord? "

Cui Zhonglei said, "I ask you what you think of this Ni house."

Gao Rong came back to his senses and said, "opinions Looking from the outside, Ni's house only has tall doors and walls and no carved beams and painted buildings, which makes it very simple. When you enter the door, you will see the high walls, yellow tiles, carved dragons and painted phoenixes, cornices and corners. It's very imposing! "

Cui Zhonglei is a smart man. When he heard this, he asked him, "do you mean The master here is different from the inside and the outside. What's the matter with him? "

Gao Rong said with a smile, "haven't you noticed it already? Otherwise, why do you want to stay for dinner? "

Cui Zhonglei was shocked and laughed a few times.

Wang man seemed to be confused and murmured, "what are you two doing? Why can't I understand a word? "

Gao Rong said: "brother Wang man, I'm going to walk around. I'll give you the safety of your family."

"Where are you going to play?" Wang asked

Cui Zhonglei said: "Wang man, Gao Rong is not going to play. I let him walk around to see what else is in such a big Ni house."

Wang man gave a "Oh" and watched Gao Rong walk out of the door. He said strangely, "I've been standing by all the time. I've never heard Gao Rong's orders from the adults!"

Cui Zhonglei laughed and opened the topic: "Wang man, you always like to talk. You get along very well in the Yamen. How about I give you a task today?"

As soon as Wang man heard that he had a task, he immediately came to the spirit and said, "my Lord, Wang man is willing to do the work of dogs and horses!"

Cui Zhonglei gave orders in his ear, and Wang man said with a smile: "don't worry, my Lord. If Wang man comes out, he will find out!"

The master and the slave set up a family routine about the weather and the local conditions and customs of Lan county.

After half an hour, Ni Jinkang finally appeared. Before he came in, he said with a smile: "I've made you wait for a long time! Xiaomin just went to arrange a banquet and bravely knocked on the door of my father's study. At first, my father was very unhappy with Xiaomin disturbing his Qingxiu. Later, when he heard that the magistrate was visiting, he immediately said, "how can you tell me such a big thing now?" He immediately locked up his study and went to the bedroom to change clothes. He asked Xiaomin to sit with the adults first, and then he would go back to my father's room to have lunch together. "Cui Zhonglei was overjoyed: "seeing general Ni is enough to comfort his life!"

These days, Ni Jinkang heard the people in the streets talking about this new magistrate. He said how he had captured pan LAN alive and solved the mystery of the blacksmith's daughter's disappearance. He thought to himself, "if this magistrate is not good, how can he find a rich man in the city?"

After all, pan LAN is domineering and domineering, but he has a lot of tricks. He extorts money from people everywhere in Lan county. Although he is very powerful, he has never committed any crime against the official family from the capital and the well-off families in Lan county. Therefore, he has been running rampant in LAN County for nine years and has never been reported.

Although Ni Jinkang can't get used to pan Lan's actions, he doesn't dare to speak out even if his father doesn't say anything. This time, he is more or less pleased to see pan LAN fall. But my father is very worried after pan Lan's fall. He hasn't shown a smile for several days. He even eats very little. I don't know why?

Later, Ni Jinkang thought about it and thought that his father was probably afraid that he would have another scum like Li Lan and Chen Lan without pan LAN, so he was worried. I think my father is afraid that the new magistrate is a sinister and cunning person with different appearances. If so, wouldn't he be more difficult to deal with than pan LAN?

But today, when I saw the new magistrate, he was not only smiling, but also full of admiration for his father!

Thinking of this, Ni Jinkang's smile was all over his face. He almost bowed to the ground and said sincerely: "thank you

Cui Zhonglei thought: "this Ni Jinkang is very polite. He has been respectful since he entered the door. I just don't know why Gao Rong is biased against Ni Qingfeng? To be asked, he just doesn't say. But I know there must be a reason! " He said, "Why are you polite, Mr. Ni?"

Ni Jinkang added a few good words, but suddenly he saw one person missing. He asked, "eh, why didn't you see an official?"

Cui Zhonglei said, "are you talking about Gao Rong, my follower? It suddenly occurred to me that the county government still had some important things to deal with, so I sent him back. "

Ni Jinkang "Oh" a, busy way: "my father must have been waiting in the brocade Pavilion for a long time, please move."

Cui Zhonglei answers with a smile, so Ni Jinkang leads the way, and Cui Zhonglei's two masters and followers follow him to Jiejin Pavilion.

Out of the flower hall, through a corridor, came to the backyard. In the courtyard, the pine, cypress, rockery, koi, red flowers and green grass, in contrast, the furnishings of Panfu are far inferior.

Cui Zhonglei said in his heart: "it seems that general Ni has a family background!"

After a while, a dark corridor suddenly appeared. Cui Zhonglei was stunned. Just about to ask, Ni Jinkang turned to the left and said, "this is the way to Jiejin Pavilion."

Cui Zhonglei asked curiously: "your mansion is so luxurious. How can a dark corridor appear in such a large courtyard?"

Ni Jinkang said: "to be honest, the end of the corridor is my father's study. Even Xiaomin seldom set foot in it. "

Cui Zhonglei heard this words is not good, ask more, a path with him to the brocade Pavilion.

The decoration of Jiejin Pavilion is also extremely gorgeous. It is paved with the most luxurious carpet. All kinds of furnishings in the hall are made of ebony, which is a school of antique. Calligraphy and painting on the wall are also rare treasures left by famous masters and craftsmen of all ages.

There was a ebony table in the middle of the hall, and there was a man sitting on the middle seat with his back to the gate, but his back was very straight, which showed his extraordinary momentum.

Ni Jinkang came here and stood up in a hurry. He said respectfully, "my father, the distinguished guest has arrived."

Before Cui Zhonglei opened his mouth, he saw his back standing up, turned around, arched his hand at him, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Cui!"

Cui Zhonglei said hastily: "I've met general Ni!"

Ni Qingfeng is tall and powerful, but his cheeks are deeply concave. In the words of Ni Jinkang, Ni Qingfeng has been suffering from heart palpitations since he was chased by assassins. He often has trouble sleeping and eating. Although he is still strong, he has lost a lot of weight due to insomnia for a long time. It is because of his full moon face that he has been deeply concave.

Cui Zhonglei had heard many brilliant deeds of Ni Qingfeng in his early years. He had been longing for him for a long time. Today, when he saw him, he sat down respectfully to talk with him.

Ni Qingfeng is a gentleman. He speaks appropriately and looks upright. Seeing that Cui Zhonglei highly praised himself, he simply fell in love with him. From Nanman to northwest, and then from northwest to northeast, he fought in his early years. When it comes to excitement, he will recite several ancient frontier poems. As for these poems, they are nothing more than Cen Shen, a frontier poet in the heyday of Tang Dynasty Gao Shi, Wang Changling, and Xin Qiji of Song Dynasty.
