A righteous alliance!

Ning Jiang wrote these three words on his Shu paper, circled them with a quill pen, and connected them with "Hechongmen", "Wu Leiguan", etc., with thin lines.

The Quanqing Sect developed very quickly. In just a few years, it had a huge force in the capital, but its weakness was that it developed too fast and many of its tails had not been wiped clean. Although the oppressed and annexed small gangs could no longer resist the Quanqing Sect, once they were connected, this force would never be inferior to the Quanqing Sect.

The killing of Bao Qing was, on the one hand, to suppress the forces behind the Quanqing Sect and Chun Jianli, and on the other hand, to cut off the Quanqing Sect, whose foundation was not stable enough in the capital, and the tentacles between the lower nine ranks at the bottom of the world, so that they could not notice the secret connection.

But now, with the return of thousands of juren who went to the capital, the elites of inspection departments from all over the country will leave the capital and rush to all places. The invisible sword hanging above the rivers and lakes of the capital will also relax. After all, the rivers and lakes are always there, and there is no problem in suppressing it for a month in order to test it out. It is impossible to suppress it forever.

Even during the month of the examination, like a stagnant "jianghu", as thousands of students dispersed, a rebound began to appear in the corners that the court did not notice. As for the Three Laws Office, which was called "Six Gates" by the figures in the martial arts world, although they noticed this, they didn't care too much.

If you want to avoid this, unless the world prohibits martial arts, it is impossible to do it. Or, like Confucianism and Taoism, open a path of upward development, so that every warrior, like Confucian scholars, becomes cautious in their future, but it is even more impossible to let the Confucian officials in the court give up an path of upward development to martial arts.

However, the case of dismemberment in the capital that occurred during the examination attracted most of the attention of Qifeng Mansion and the Three Laws Office, which had not yet realized that this year's world is more undercurrent than usual.

On the eighth day of April, the weather has become extremely hot.

The status of "tribute student" obtained in the imperial examination is only a transitional nature, unlike when I first passed the imperial examination, there were a lot of social engagements.

But because "little three-yuan" is rare, Ning Jiang naturally inevitably received invitations from some dignitaries. However, this time, as long as he could take on social engagements, he basically did not refuse. He copied a few more poems on the way, and became more famous for a while.

On this day, Ning Jiang received an invitation from the Minister of Personnel's Office. Of course, the one who invited him was not the Minister of Personnel, but Zheng Xian, the son of the Minister of Personnel.

Although Zheng Xian did not participate in the imperial examination and was not a tribute student, because he was the "highest and best-sacrificing student" of the Imperial College, he could enter the palace examination without the examination. It was normal for him to invite well-known students from the imperial examination to get in touch in advance.

As he is the son of the Minister of Personnel, there is no reason for the invited tribute students to go. After all, once they are released as officials in the future, the Ministry of Personnel will manage their political performance assessment.

Of course, Ning Jiang had no reason to refuse, so in the afternoon, he just called his sister and arranged for her to do something in the evening, and then went to the meeting.

Xiao Meng, who was assigned a task by her brother, looked a little pale...

***

Ningjiang came to Zheng’s Mansion where Zheng An, the Minister of Personnel, was located.

This time, Zheng Xian invited many guests, most of whom were first-class students in this exam.

As Zheng Xian’s younger brother, Zheng Xiang naturally came out to entertain him. Unfortunately, Lu Zhiyuan did not show up, otherwise Ning Jiang would have wanted to ask him what his ranking was?

However, Zheng Xian actually invited Song Junzhe.

When Song Junzhe saw Ning Jiang, his face turned pale, but he finally bowed. Ning Jiang naturally returned a gift without any worries.

Because it is a banquet for young people... It is said that they are young people, in fact, there are also a few new tribute students in their forties, and most of them are in their twenties and thirties. Not many are as young as Ningjiang. However, among the scholars of the Great Zhou Dynasty, more are ranked advanced and juniors according to the year of the scientific examination. Today, the guests are either Zheng Xian's friends or will soon participate in the upcoming palace examination with Zheng Xian. Therefore, no matter how different the ages are, they are considered to be the same generation.

Zheng An and his wife came out, greeted everyone, and then returned to the back mansion.

When taking the seat, Zheng Xian wanted to invite Huiyuan, who was in the exam today, to sit in the first place, but Ning Jiang naturally refused... It was not because he was modest, this was the "destined meaning" of scholars. If Zheng Xian did not invite him into the first place, it would be Zheng Xian's rudeness. If he really sat in the first place, it was his arrogance. Pushing and pushing is a must, and there is no way, scholars are just so tired.

Of course, in the end, because Ning Jiang refused repeatedly, the seats were still ranked according to his age... Although Song Junzhe, as a royal family, had the highest status, tonight was a "banquet for scholars". The identity of the prince of the county prince's mansion would not play any role in such an occasion.

After everyone sat down, Zheng Xian said: "Actually, I invited a beautiful woman today, but that beautiful woman said that she had offended a talented man in the audience and claimed that she had no face to meet..."

He deliberately paused, and when the others heard that since they were "beautiful women", what are you waiting for? Please come out and see me quickly? As for offending someone here, no matter who they offended, please come and have a gift. Everyone should understand.

Most people don’t remember that there was a “beauty” that offended them. Besides, since they were “beauty”, what’s the matter if they offended them? I must be magnanimous to them. So they all started to make a fuss and asked Zheng Xian to invite the beauty out as soon as possible.

Seeing the atmosphere coming, Zheng Xian clapped his hands and asked everyone to stop the noise first. Then he said, "The beauty said she had a mistake and was willing to apologize for the piano music and obtain the forgiveness of the talented man before she dared to show up. Please give me a reward."

Everyone calmed down, and three rockery mountains formed a "mountain" shape. On the other side of the mountain, the sunset was lingering. Green smoke rose, and it was obvious that someone burned the furnace and incense on that side. Then, the sound of the piano was like pearls and jade falling on the plate, and the sound of the zither sounded, first like silk and bamboo, pleasant and then like spiritual rain, quiet and peaceful. All of the people here were talented men with knowledge. Just from this beginning, we knew that the beauty behind the mountain had extraordinary achievements and held their breath.

The sound of the piano is melodious, and the secret feelings are spoken, and the entertainment is the best. Even Ningjiang can't help but move slightly. The man behind the mountain has a very good at piano skills, but he is afraid that he will not be inferior to Qi Meng.

In the sound of the piano, a girl's voice, which was a little sad, sounded beautifully: "The green collar of my heart is lingering. Even if I don't go, I'd rather not be able to succeed..."

***

At the same time, in the inner city, the "Iron-faced God-breaking" Cen Feihu frowned tightly with the report presented by the surrounding capital.

Around him, there were several Bai Dao masters from the detailed inspection department. One of them said: "Boss Cen, do we care about this dispute or not?"

Cen Feihu said angrily: "How to deal with it? This is a gang dispute in the world, and it seems that it is He Chongmen who invited helpers from all over the world to retaliate against the Zombie Sect. When the Zombie Sect killed He Chongmen, we didn't care. Now He Chongmen is killing the Zombie Sect in turn, so we will take care of it. Isn't this obviously a slut? If you really want to do this, what will the Jianghu say about us in the future?"

During the day today, because of the annexation of Hechong Gate, the zombie sect that was in full swing, the rudders of various places were suddenly picked up. It can be imagined that Hechong Gate was prepared this time. No one expected that the revenge of Hechong Gate, who was about to be driven out, came so quickly and violently. Not long after the examination was over, various disputes appeared in the rivers and lakes of the capital that had been forcibly suppressed for more than a month. In order to ensure peace on the way back to the juren who returned home, the main force of the inspection department dispersed. Because the Qifeng Mansion was unable to break the murder case within the time limit stipulated by the emperor, the Qifeng Mansion was just dismissed. The newly appointed Qifeng Mansion was not yet selected to take action, which made them extremely troublesome.

The other man frowned and said, "At least, the palace examination is not over yet!"

"How to suppress?" Cen Feihu said, "Tell the young master of He Chong Sect, you are too anxious to take action this time. The zombie sect is not ready yet. You will take action when they are ready? His father is dead, and he will take action until the end of the exam. It is already worthy of our face."

Throw the report into the pile of documents next to it: "Let's throw this report here... Everyone pretends that they didn't see it."

During the examination, thousands of scholars from many places went to the capital. In order to ensure the safety of these scholars and to maintain the prestige of the capital, even a small case must be treated as a major case, not to mention that this kind of dismemberment case that deliberately provoked the court, went to the sky to listen the next day.

But now, except for the more than 100 tribute students, the talented men left Beijing one after another, so they naturally relaxed a lot in public security. In addition, such disputes like the rivers and lakes are not under the jurisdiction of Qifeng Prefecture. As for the Ministry of Justice, as long as the inspection department below does not report, it is only possible to assume that it has not happened, and they will not be full and report it to the emperor.

It is precisely because of this case that the murder and dismemberment during the examination was only one person, but it was a major case that shocked the capital and furious to the emperor. Although the revenge of He Chongmen on the Zombie Sect was much more dead, as long as the Three Laws and Laws did not report it, the emperor did not know, the court did not care about it, and the place would not care. In a year or two, it would seem like there would be no such thing... Anyway, those who died were the people who had no roots and no Ping, and they would die if they died.

On the other side, in Xinzheng Lane, in an uninhabited pavilion, a girl in white dress with white flowers on her bun, with a mandarin duck sword inserted on her bun, with her shirt as her arm, and a mandarin duck sword inserted between her waist.

Behind her was a young woman, and at first glance, she looked ordinary.

This girl is Ning Xiaomeng. However, after Qin Wuyan's disguise, even if her brother is here, she may not recognize her at first sight.

In the courtyard ahead, a group of people galloped out and rushed to the outer city gate. Behind her, Qin Wuyan whispered: "Girl! Dian Jie, the master wants you to kill, lives there. Dian Jie himself does not know martial arts, but he has five powerful guards around him. In addition, there is a master of the zombie sect, called Kang Taiping, who is good at using poisonous swords and hidden weapons. Be careful when facing him. In addition, the master's request... Do you still remember?"

"Kang Taiping must die. Dian Jie's head must be cut off and taken away, but everyone else I met on the road took off the tendons, and no one could let them die, right?" Ning Xiaomeng lowered her hand slightly and looked out the window. Although it was not the first time to kill people, at that time, when he killed those people outside the Zhenwu Temple, he thought his brother had been killed by them, so he didn't think too much about it.

But this time, it was a bit different. The plan was to take human life step by step. Before she could do it, she brought her an inexplicable sense of tension, and she had to cut off the head and take it away... But she had to do it.

——"In the future, let Xiao Meng do this kind of thing."

If she doesn't do it, then the brother must do it. She feels that she has grown up and she must do more and more things for her brother. She can't always let her brother take care of her, but she can't share her worries with her.

The fire-like sunset slowly dissipated as the sky faded. In the mansion, the last group of people were transferred away because of the picking of strongholds in various places and rushed to other places for assistance.

Qin Wuyan said: "Miss...you can do it!"

A beautiful figure flew out of the window, landed on the ground, and rushed towards the courtyard ahead at the speed of lightning. With a loud shout, someone was about to ask a question, but then two sword lights flew in the darkness and rushed into the courtyard like a dragon.

Qin Wuyan stood high behind, looking at the figure who was not admitted to the hospital, thinking to herself: "Would the master be too cruel to the girl? Such things are obviously not necessarily left to the girl!"

...

***

The sound of the piano is melodious, floating among the garden, the cranes fly to the sky, the clouds are clear and the sky is blooming.

The girl's voice was like the sound of the sky, as if it had driven the rain of flowers all over the sky, floating with strange colors: "The green and green puppet, my thoughts are endless. Even if I don't go, I would rather not come... I will be able to pick it up, and I am in the city. I will not see it for a day, like three months..."

With deep and affectionate singing, it slowly dissipated behind the rockery. The students at the banquet were still immersed in the afterglow of the three feet of the beam in public, and they could not forget it for a long time. After a while, Song Junzhe put down his wine glass and praised: "This woman's piano music can be compared with the eldest princess. Even in the entire capital, there are few people. I don't know which girl it was and which talented man here offended?"

Others also praised and wanted to invite the beauty who played the piano to see her. Ning Jiang rubbed the wine glass, looking a little cold, with a slight mockery on the corner of his mouth... It turned out to be her?

Zheng Xian looked at Ning Jiang and smiled and said, "That beauty confessed that she had offended Ning Da Caizi and did not dare to show up in front of Ning Da Caizi. I wonder if Brother Ning can forgive her for her sake for the sake of Brother Yu and everyone?"

Ning Jiang said lightly: "Brother Zheng, don't joke! Xiaosheng really doesn't remember when Miss Jianli offended Xiaosheng?"
