The Return of the Demon

Chapter 239: Blood Boiling

"So that I can go, so you two can't go."

Gao Ziping and Chen Chong still wanted to fight for it, but Pan Yucheng stopped them in their tracks.

The two became crestfallen and became mindless and unhappy.

"Uncle Chai, tell the kitchen to cook more dishes... Let's have some tonight."

Uncle Chai nodded, "Yes, I will make arrangements now!"

During the dinner, Chen Chong and Gao Ziping had unhappiness written all over their faces.

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Can you two stop looking like widows? We are about to go on an expedition, can't we be happy?"

The two held up their wine glasses, grinning and baring their teeth.

Chen Chong said: "I wish you all the best!"

Gao Ziping said: "I wish you a triumphant victory."

Ning Chen, Pan Yucheng, and Feng Qi rolled their eyes.

This smile is uglier than crying and a little scary. Is this practicing wine? It feels like drinking a guillotine, in short, I feel very unlucky!

Ning Chen couldn't help it anymore, "Can you two stop being so unlucky? I have a mission for you to stay."

Gao Ziping and Chen Chong's eyes lit up, and they both asked: "What mission?"

"Go to Jiaofangsi more often and help me protect Yudie."

Two people: →_→

Ning Chen smiled and said, "I will pay for your money to go to the Jiaofang Division."

"Who do you think we are?" Chen Chong looked sulky and said angrily: "Don't worry, we will definitely go to the Jiaofang Division every day to protect Miss Yudie."

Ning Chen: "..."

Gao Ziping picked up a cup with a serious look on his face, "I just want to ask... Can you pay me in advance?"

Ning Chen's face twitched, "Fuck...you two bitches!"

"Old Pan, give them two hundred taels of silver."

Pan Yucheng looked at him sideways.

Ning Chen said: "Don't look at me like this...Miss Nanzhi also needs protection. The protection fee is half for each of us."

Pan Yucheng's mouth twitched.

After three rounds of wine, the five flavors of food are gone.

Everyone didn’t drink too much and we have things to do tomorrow.

...

The next day, early morning.

Ning Chen came out of the room and couldn't help but be startled.

Gu Yichun knelt at the door of his room.

"You...this is?"

Gu Yichun's face was full of shame, "This slave is incompetent and failed the master's trust. He didn't find the person you wanted."

The muscles at the corners of Ning Chen's eyes twitched slightly.

"Get up! It's hard to find a wandering doctor with no fixed abode... It doesn't matter if you don't find him!"

Ning Chen stepped forward and helped Gu Yichun up.

He now suspected that Lin Wen had no senior brother at all.

"When did you come back?"

Gu Yichun said: "It's almost Mao hour."

Ning Chen's lips twitched, which meant that Gu Yichun had been kneeling for two hours.

"It's okay. Don't blame yourself. If you didn't find it, you didn't find it."

As Ning Chen was talking, Uncle Chai came over with breakfast.

There is a special restaurant, but Ning Chen is the only owner in the mansion, and he is too lazy to go there. Uncle Chai usually delivers breakfast directly to his room.

Ning Chen said while eating breakfast: "Uncle Chai, while I am away, I will leave the house to you."

When I was chatting with Pan Yucheng and others last night, Uncle Chai was waiting nearby and knew that he was going to go on an expedition.

"Fourth Young Master, don't worry. I will take good care of the house... Fourth Young Master, you must be careful when you are outside!"

Uncle Chai said with worry on his face.

Ning Chen nodded slightly, "Gu Yichun, I leave the safety of my family to you!"

Gu Yichun nodded solemnly, "Young master, don't worry!"

"Master, are you going on a long trip? I will arrange for you to have a few skilled people to accompany you?"

Ning Chen smiled and said, "No need, I'm going to the battlefield."

"ah?"

Gu Yichun was stunned.

After breakfast, Ning Chen drove straight to the General's Mansion.

Before we go on an expedition, we must pay a visit to General Chen.

...

It was already evening when we came out of General Chen's mansion.

Ning Chen drove to Tianhe Ferry.

This place has been blocked by the Imperial Army.

The warship has docked.

Yuan Long led two thousand musketeers who were already boarding the ship one after another.

Eunuch Quan also came, and there was a bright red color next to him. Unexpectedly, the ninth princess also came.

Ning Chen got off the carriage and walked over with a slightly uncoordinated pace.

The injury on his leg has not healed yet, and his walking is somewhat affected.

But when we get to Lingzhou, it should be almost fine.

A smile appeared on Eunuch Quan's face, "Mr. Ning, Your Majesty asked our family to see you off. Your Majesty has a purpose..."

Ning Chen rolled his eyes, "I know, you want me to come back alive to see you, right?"

Father-in-law Quan smiled and nodded.

"Our family also wishes Mr. Ning a smooth journey!"

"Thanks!"

The Ninth Princess took two steps forward, hesitated, and shyly handed over a braid that looked like a Chinese knot.

"This is the peace charm I specially asked for. If you carry it with you, it will bless you and everything will go smoothly!"

Ning Chen took it, leaned over and said, "Thank you princess!"

A shy yet bright smile appeared on Princess Ninth's face. She immediately turned around and took a food box from He Ye's hand.

"There are snacks here, you can take them with you to eat on the road!"

Ning Chen thanked him again, this is good stuff... The last time he floated on the water for more than ten days, he ate fish for more than ten days. He felt that his whole body exuded a fishy smell, and he was about to mutate.

"Ning Chen, I wish you all the best!"

Ning Chen nodded, "Princess, take care, Grandpa, take care... It's getting late, I should set off!"

Ning Chen boarded the warship.

Eunuch Quan ordered: "War drums, start!"

Dong, Dong, Dong! ! !

The sound of war drums resounded through the sky.

Ning Chen stood at the stern and waved to Eunuch Quan, the Ninth Princess and others.

"Set sail!"

With Ning Chen's order, ten warships set sail.

The figures on the shore became smaller and smaller until they could no longer be seen... Only the sound of war drums could be heard from afar.

Ning Chen turned around and came to the deck, leaning on his sword, his blood boiling.

Compared to the intrigues in the court, he preferred the real fighting on the battlefield.

Lingzhou, it will take five days.

Life on the ship is very boring.

In the room, Ning Chen ate the snacks sent by the Ninth Princess while studying the map of Yuzhou.

The map of this world is not very detailed, only a rough outline is drawn.

Yuzhou has high mountains and dense forests, and the terrain is dangerous.

He was not afraid of the left prime minister's men fighting him with real swords and guns, but he was afraid that this grandson would take people to escape from the city and hide in the mountains, which would be difficult to fight.

The most important thing now is that the left prime minister is now prepared. If the city gate is closed, how can they break through the city gate?

The situation in Yuzhou is still unclear, so we can only wait and see.

......

After drifting on the water for five days, the warship finally docked at the Lingzhou ferry.

Ning Chen's injuries on his legs and back are almost healed.

The Lingzhou ferry has been blocked.

Jiang Zhengyang led Lingzhou officials to greet him.

The two are old acquaintances.

Jiang Zhengyang is now the prefect of Lingzhou and the governor of Lingzhou.

The last time Ning Chen came, he cleaned up the Lingzhou officialdom, and most of the officials now are new faces.

But everyone has heard of the reputation of Daxuan Ning Yinyi, and they look at Ning Chen with curiosity and fear.

"Your humble servant Jiang Zhengyang, leading Lingzhou officials, to meet General Ning!"

In fact, His Majesty did not give him a title for this expedition.

However, His Majesty did not take back the title of General of the Northern Expedition last time.

However, General Ning Chen is a very weak general, and he does not have a general seal at all.

"Lord Jiang, long time no see!"

Jiang Zhengyang smiled and said, "General Ning has worked hard all the way. Your humble servant has prepared a banquet and invites General Ning to enter the city."

Ning Chen raised his eyebrows, "Will there be singing girls to accompany me like the last time I came?"

"Uh... No, if General Ning wants, your humble servant can help you find a few."

Ning Chen rolled his eyes at him and joked, "I thought Lord Jiang had been promoted and learned the flattery and extravagant enjoyment in the officialdom."

Jiang Zhengyang shook his head repeatedly, "I want to learn, but I can't...It's General Ning who is here. If it were someone else, there wouldn't even be a banquet."

Ning Chen smiled.
