As a modern man, Ning Chen is still very curious about the places of prostitution, such as the brothels and willow alleys. But Ning Chen refused their invitation because of his young age. First, it was too expensive. Although it was someone else's treat... he would definitely have to pay it back in the future. Second, he was too young... he was talking about his age. After chatting with them for a while, Ning Chen picked up the log and ran again. At noon, General Chen prepared a banquet. Ning Chen drank a few glasses with General Chen. The brewing technology of this era was not good, so the alcohol content of the wine was not high. In the afternoon, Ning Chen continued to exercise. He must make himself stronger as soon as possible.
Ning Chen's perseverance made those soldiers admire him. Before leaving, General Chen also gave Ning Chen a few packets of medicine, saying that he could put them in the bathtub when he went back to take a bath, which could promote blood circulation and relieve muscle soreness. After thanking him, Ning Chen carried a few packets of medicine back to Ning Mansion. He was indeed sore all over now, as if he had been beaten up, which was caused by not exercising for a long time. Go back and take a hot bath, and with the medicine given by General Chen, you should feel better. Just thinking about it, a scream suddenly sounded behind you! Ning Chen subconsciously turned his head and saw a carriage rushing towards him at a very fast speed. At this time, the carriage was only three meters away from him. A chill instantly swept through his body. But the instinct for survival made Ning Chen react immediately and rushed to the side. Ning Chen fell to the ground and rolled a few times. The carriage whizzed past, bringing a gust of wind and leaving in a dust. "Young man, are you okay?" "The horse seemed to be frightened." "It's too dangerous, it almost hit this young man." Passers-by gathered around, and a kind person helped Ning Chen up. "Thank you, I'm fine!" Ning Chen had been exercising for a day and his whole body was sore. He didn't feel more pain from the fall just now. The only thing that made him distressed was that his cloak was dirty.
After thanking the passers-by for helping, Ning Chen walked towards the Ning Mansion. His eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze flickered. The horse was not frightened, the carriage was coming for him. First, the carriage should have accelerated suddenly. If it was running wildly, the noise was too loud, and he would have noticed it long ago. Second, the driver did not pull the reins. Someone wanted to kill him. Ning Chen felt a chill in his heart. If he had been hit just now, he would have been disabled if not dead. Could it be the Chang mother and son? Because Ning Chen could not think of anyone else who would put him to death. It seems that he has to be more careful in the future. He must make himself stronger as soon as possible, and strength is the hard truth. Ning Chen returned to the Ning Mansion and found that the Ning Mansion was deserted and there were fewer servants. Ning Chen was a little curious. At this time, a maid walked in from outside the archway and was a little surprised to see Ning Chen. "Fourth Master, didn't you go to the Champion Building?" "Huh?" Ning Chen looked at him strangely. "The eldest son took the palace examination today and wrote a poem on the spot. His Majesty was very happy... In a few days, the eldest son will join the Hanlin Academy." "So, the master held a banquet in the Zhuangyuan Building today to celebrate the eldest son's joining. The Zhuangyuan Building was short of staff, and everyone in the mansion went to the banquet to help... Why didn't the fourth son go?" After the maid asked, she felt something was wrong. It was no secret that the fourth son was not favored. "Fourth son, then I will go to work first!" The maid bowed and ran away in a hurry. Ning Chen smiled bitterly. Even the servants in the mansion went, but no one notified him. I am really just an outsider. But Ning Gan is so lucky. There is a saying in the court, first enter the Hanlin, then enter the cabinet. With Zuo Xiang and Ning Ziming paving the way, Ning Gan will definitely rise to prominence in the future. Ning Chen shook his head and put the matter behind him...He had eaten the food in the Zhuangyuan Building twice. After returning to the room and taking a short rest, Ning Chen asked someone to prepare hot water.
He put the medicinal herbs sent by General Chen into the water and took a nice bath. Ning Chen fell asleep until late at night, but was awakened by the noise outside. It was Ning Ziming and others who came back. Hearing their slurred speech, I knew they were drunk! Ning Chen turned over and continued to sleep... I had to go to the general's mansion tomorrow. But not long after falling asleep, the door was smashed loudly. Ning Chen was awakened. "Ning Chen, open the door, open the door quickly!" It was Ning Gan's voice. Then it was Ning Mao's voice: "Ning Chen, I know you are in there, open the door quickly... or I will kick the door?" Ning Chen didn't want to pay attention, but he was really annoyed, so he got out of bed and walked over to open the door. "Are you sick? Why aren't you sleeping in the middle of the night?" Ning Mao's face was red from drinking, and he shouted with a big tongue: "Ning Chen, you are so presumptuous, how can you talk to big brother?" "Big brother is now an editor of the Hanlin Academy, a seventh-rank official... You have to kneel down and kowtow to big brother when you see him... Now, I order you to kneel down for big brother." Ning Chen sneered. A seventh-rank official, in the capital, can knock down a large number of second-rank and third-rank officials with a brick, and the seventh-rank official is nothing. "Stupid, get out... If you dare to disturb my sleep again, I'll chop off your hands." Ning Mao yelled: "Ning Chen, you dare to insult the court official... Big brother, beat him with thirty boards, see if he is still arrogant?" Ning Chen was so angry that he laughed. Ning Gan waved his hand, "Forget it... I'm happy today, so I won't bother with him." "Ning Chen, big brother is still thinking about you... I'm afraid you won't have food to eat at night, so I packed it for you." Ning Chen then realized that Ning Gan was holding an oil paper bag. Before he could react, Ning Gan threw the oil paper bag in his hand over. Ning Chen didn't catch it, and it fell to the ground. The oil paper bag broke and exposed the bones inside. Ning Gan smiled sinisterly and said, "Why are you so careless? Now I can only let my fourth brother lie on the ground and eat." "Big brother, feed him, what will the dog in the mansion eat?" Ning Gan said, "First, take care of my fourth brother, don't let him down... After all, he doesn't eat as well as the dog usually does, it doesn't matter if the dog eats less." Ning Mao laughed exaggeratedly. "Ning Chen, eat quickly... Look how much big brother cares about you!"
Ning Chen's face was extremely ugly. But suddenly, he laughed, "Thank you, big brother... Big brother brought me food, as a younger brother, I can't be ignorant, I have a gift for you." Ning Chen said, and turned back to the room. But soon, Ning Chen came out, holding a chamber pot in his hand. "It's just a small gift, I hope you don't mind it." Before the two of them could react, Ning Chen poured it directly. Ning Gan was hit directly in the face. Ning Mao was almost the same, almost hitting his face. The two also saw what Ning Chen was holding, and subconsciously stepped back, but they lost their balance and fell all over. Ning Chen chased him and poured the last drop of liquid in the chamber pot on Ning Mao's head before stopping. Now he only hated that he only urinated once, if he had known earlier, he would have drunk more water and urinated more times.
