Chapter 97 Returning to the Legion
Married, the time has come to August.

Ren Ning went to the Ministry of War to inquire, and confirmed that the Starfall Legion had obeyed the emperor's order to set off from Yanzhen Fortress and head south all the way.

Back home, Ren Ning looked at Lei Er, who was leaning on Ben Lei and gnawing his bones: "The legion has already set out. We don't need to go west to the fortress. We can go directly south, and finally meet the legion outside Zhennan Pass."

Lei Er nodded, he walked to the table and swipe to look at the Yunchui map.

"Should we go all the way south on horseback, or take a boat along the Xinglan Grand Canal all the way east to Sulan City, and then go straight to Baihua County from the sea?"

Riding a horse is tiring; taking a boat is easy, but it takes a long time to make a big bend.

"Doesn't Ben Lei get seasick?" Ren Ning said.

The water in the canal is fairly stable, but the chasing wind can't stand it.It is estimated that the rough sea in the east will be even more uncomfortable.

Lei Er straightened his neck, only to think of this incident, and looked back at his beloved horse wagging its tail, so depressed that he couldn't speak.

This is the first time in his life that the capital of God, and Sulan City, the richest city in Yunchui, has never been there before, so he wanted to take a look at it.

It's a pity that the two horses couldn't stand it.

"When are you leaving?" Yingpan came over with tea.

Ren Ning and the two looked at each other, "We have to leave early tomorrow morning."

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, the two of them took their weapons and luggage and prepared to go out.

"I asked Master Hongguang, the abbot of Longshou Temple, to consecrate this wolf fang. According to Xiliang's custom, wearing it can turn bad luck into good luck." Ren Ning put the wolf fang in Yingpan's hand, "at home Use the money you want, buy whatever you want; servants are disobedient, so don’t hesitate to sell them.”

"When I come back next time, the General's Mansion will be hung at the door of my house."

"I believe it!" Ying Pan smiled and nodded, but she put the wolf king's tooth back into Ren Ning's hand.

"At the feet of the Son of Heaven, I can be in any danger. You don't have eyes for swords and guns when you go out, and you should pay more attention to safety. Just take this amulet with you."

"Let's talk about it." She giggled and took out her wolf king teeth, "I also have wolf teeth, and it's a token of love from you. It's enough to have it."

Ren Ning didn't say much, hugged the girl in front of him, got on his horse and went out with Lei Er.

When they reached the entrance of the alley, Xiao Gang was waiting for them with a bag and a white horse smiling.

"You can join the army?" Ren Ning asked.

"Of course." Xiao Gang laughed, mounted his horse and followed.

No matter how down-and-out the Earl's Mansion is, it is still the Earl's Mansion.One of the giants of the empire.It is said that Zhongyong Bo Xiao Zheng is trying hard to marry his prostitute daughter to the third prince Chen Xiuzhu.

Moreover, their Xiao family is a family of military generals, and if they want their second son to enter the military camp, it doesn't matter whether it's a bonus for his experience, just go to the Ministry of War to mention it casually.

"Let's talk about it first. If you go with us, there will be no servants to serve you, Second Young Master Xiao. You have to do everything yourself. It is common to eat and sleep on the road." Ren Ning said the ugly words in advance.

cut!
Xiao Gang cut him off, rolled up his sleeves and exposed his tanned arms, "Do you really think I, Xiao Gang, is Sun Ye from Cheng En Bo's Mansion?"

Last time in Qin Wangfu, Ren Ning knocked Sun Ye unconscious with one move, and knocked out two of his front teeth.

The news seemed to have wings, and it spread throughout the entire imperial capital that day.

For a moment, Sun Sangong's front teeth and the title of Sword God became a joke.Even the girl who was going to discuss marriage has nothing to say.

After Sun Ye woke up, he was filled with shame and anger, and broke the two calves of the servant who grew up with him on the spot.

Now he is also living a life of "eating and sleeping in the open".

For the noble son of the imperial capital, leaving the flourishing imperial capital to recuperate in the outskirts of Zhuangzi is similar to eating and sleeping in the open.

But Cheng Enbo always knew the general situation, he kept saying that he was willing to gamble and admit defeat in a fair competition, but he didn't touch Ren Ning at all.

The three of them didn't take Cheng Enbo's mansion seriously, they talked and laughed and rushed to Xingji West Wharf and boarded the passenger ship.

They will still take the boat first, go all the way southeast along the Xinglan Grand Canal, and then disembark when they arrive in Hanoi County and change to land.

The next day the passenger ship arrived at Luofeng Mountain.

Ren Ning came out of the deck to breathe, and when he looked at the rice fields east of the canal, he found that everything was as usual there, and there were no signs of scouts or secret workers.

"This Luofeng Mountain is the hometown of Yunchui's first empress..."

Ren Ning turned his head to look for the sound.

Coincidentally, the "tour guide" Hu Dazui he met when he returned to the imperial capital last time was still chattering and explaining the customs on both sides of the strait to tourists.

Ren Ning squeezed over and threw five taels of silver over.

"Stop bragging!" He pointed to the fields on the east bank, "Your Excellency claims to know everything? I don't believe it! Tell me who these farms belong to? If you can tell that the money is yours, if you can't tell..."

Hu Dazui was taken aback for a moment, and looked over suspiciously.

Ren Ning stood calmly and let him look at him.

When people become relatives, their temperament changes.

Moreover, when he got on the boat from the imperial capital, his armor was clean and fresh, and he looked like a general.It is impossible for Hu Dazui to recognize him when he was in the world.

Sure enough, Hu Dazui threw up the broken silver in his hand hahaha.

"The major general is asking the right person. Old Hu happens to know who owns the land on these two banks." He brought out the previous set of arguments again.

Ren Ning narrowed his eyes coldly.

"Nonsense, you are the original... I am so fooled? Just now you said that Luofeng Mountain is the hometown of the first empress of Yunchui. The empress is so honorable, how could the land of her hometown become the Grand Master's Mansion?"

Hu Dazui looked even more proud.

"This son doesn't know something. Luofeng Mountain is not a hill, and the empress's hometown is far away from the canal. The empress ascended the throne more than 600 years ago, and the land of her hometown was indeed granted to the first Cheng Enbo."

"But then the empress gave birth to the first princess, who grew up and married the first son of the Grand Master's Mansion. The field by the canal is one of the dowry of the first princess. It was given by her grandfather."

Speaking of this, Hu Dazui suddenly became mysterious.

"Because of this princess, the main line of the Grand Master's Mansion has royal blood. It is said that there was an unwritten rule in the Ren family's family rules. Do you know what it is?"

The tourists are most curious about the anecdotes of these wealthy families, and they all stretched their necks, "What rules?"

"Well, Laohu, I've been talking for a long time, and my mouth is dry, why don't I save it until tomorrow?"

The tourists were not stupid, and they willingly put a copper coin in Hu Dazui's hand.Even Ren Ning threw a tael of silver over.

"Thank you, young master, and thank you fellow villagers for your support." After collecting the money and satisfying the appetite of the tourists, Hu Dazui continued cheerfully.

"This unwritten rule is that the main line of the Ren family is not allowed to marry the royal family."

hum.

As expected, everyone's eyes lit up.

"Why is it called unwritten?" Hu Dazui paused.

"The Tian family has the majesty of the Tian family. Although the Grand Master's Mansion is high and powerful, it is not easy to blatantly say that my sons and daughters are not allowed to marry the royal family. You can't think that the Tian family can't afford it, right? So no Write it down in the house rules."

"But according to my investigation, Hu Dazui, since these farms changed their surnames to Ren, the Grand Master's Mansion has indeed never been married to the royal family."

"Is it interesting?" Lei Er and Xiao Gang walked over with strange expressions.

Although Ren Ning expelled himself from the Ren family, it is a bit strange to inquire about the past of the Ren family.
