Chapter 18 Little girl, sign and draw!

After entering the city, the little guy temporarily stored the carriage in the stable.

After going to the pharmacy, the shopkeeper packed the silver that had already been counted in a big package, and tied it on Shen Ningning's back for help.

"Miss, is the money heavy? Shall I find someone to escort you back to the carriage?" Shopkeeper Fang asked.

Shen Ningning shook her head: "No need, I can recite it. By the way, grandpa shopkeeper, do you know how to get to General Zhennan's Mansion?"

"General Zhennan's Mansion?" Shopkeeper Fang's expression became respectful: "Turn left along our street, and walk two more intersections, and you will be there."

Shen Ningning said softly, "Thank you."

Seeing her walking away with small feet, Shopkeeper Fang hissed and pondered: "This girl still knows people from the General's Mansion? Could it be that her background is really not small?"

After Shen Ningning left the pharmacy, she found a place where no one was around, and hid all the money in the fairyland.

She only put 100 taels on her body.

Immediately afterwards, the little guy went to buy some pastries.

She is very well behaved.

Grandma said that when you go to someone's house as a guest, you have to bring a gift, and you can't come to the door empty-handed, that's very rude.

The weather was hot, sweat stained her forehead, and her black hair stuck to her skin as white as jade.

It took half a stick of incense in a row.

The little guy wiped his sweat with his hand, and threw the water bag to the refugees, but his mouth was parched.

After finally walking to the gate of Zhennan General's Mansion, she was overjoyed and forgot all her exhaustion.

I can see my brother soon!

She looked down at her skirt and shoes.

Today she is wearing the pink butterfly skirt and shoes of the same color that she bought for herself that day.

After confirming that she was well dressed, Shen Ningning came forward with the cake.

"Excuse me..." She raised her head with difficulty, looking at the tall guard of the General's Mansion: "I want to find Brother Mo, is he at home?"

The guards didn't look sideways and ignored her.

Shen Ningning asked twice, but the other party treated her like air!
This can make things difficult for little ones.

What's the matter?
At this moment, a man wearing a long coat and looking very gentle came out of the mansion.

She hurried up and said, "Hello, Uncle, I'm looking for Brother Mo, is he at home?"

The housekeeper paused and looked Shen Ningning up and down: "Brother Mo? Who is it?"

The little guy hurriedly said: "Mo Lingwei."

The butler was taken aback, and said angrily: "Presumptuous! Where did the brat come from, who dared to make trouble at the gate of the general's mansion, and the name of His Royal Highness was also called by someone like you?"

It was Shen Ningning's turn to be surprised: "But brother asked me to come here to find him, and gave me a piece of jade..."

Before she could finish her sentence, the housekeeper already decided that she was a little liar with malicious intentions.

"Hurry up and drive her away, the master and the young master will return home later, and they will definitely get angry when they see a girl of unknown origin talking nonsense here!" the housekeeper interrupted her.

The guard obeyed the order, stretched out his big palm, and directly grabbed Shen Ningning's clothes.

Like lifting a little chicken, he lifted her up without any effort.

"Let go of me! Brother! Brother, save me!" The little guy struggled desperately.

The housekeeper rolled his eyes: "These days, there are so many tricks of scammers. Knowing that our master is a trusted confidant of the crown prince, how dare you do such nonsense? Ha!"

"Ah—" Shen Ningning was thrown out of the intersection by the guards.

Her petite body fell to the ground hard, a bright red streak appeared on her arm, and her skirt was directly torn.

The guard warned fiercely: "Stay away! Otherwise, you will have good fruit to eat!"

Shen Ningning had tears in his eyes, and the black eyes on his fair face were full of grievances.

She picked up the pastry, choked up and muttered: "It's really my brother who asked me to come here to find him..."

The little guy was very sad.

My brother said his name was Mo Lingwei, but they said Mo Lingwei was the prince.

If the elder brother is the crown prince, why did he let her come to the general's mansion?

Could it be that her brother lied to her?

Thinking of the jade pendant that was eaten by the fairyland, there is no evidence now that she and her brother knew each other.

Shen Ningning glanced back at the General's Mansion, wiped away tears, and left lonely.

At this moment, a gorgeous carriage passed her by.

The little guy was dazzled by the dust and stood there rubbing his eyes.

The carriage stopped at the Zhennan General's Mansion, and the housekeeper immediately went up to greet him: "Master, Young Master, you are back."

General Chen stepped out of the carriage with a dignified face and entered the mansion without saying a word, looking in a bad mood.

His son, the young master of the General's Mansion, Chen Shaobei, is twelve years old, with sword eyebrows and star eyes.

The butler asked flatteringly, "Master, have you seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

"No," Chen Shaobei said coldly, "The crown prince returned to the palace and broke the tendons of the sixth prince's hands and feet. The emperor was displeased and punished him to kneel in the Buddhist hall. The whole court was persuading him, but the emperor refused to take it back."

He sighed: "Tomorrow, my father and I will go to the palace to continue interceding. You pack up some of my clothes, and I will stay in the palace barracks and won't come back for the time being."

"Yes." The butler agreed.

At this moment, Chen Shaobei looked back and saw a small pink figure walking away silently along the wall.

He frowned slightly: "Who is that?"

This alley can only lead to the General's Mansion.

The butler took a look and said, "The refugees who came to cheat for food! They have already been driven away."

Chen Shaobei withdrew his gaze.

Shen Ningning was carrying the tattered pastry, his body was covered with dirty dust, and he couldn't clean it.

She was walking under the scorching sun, slightly absent-minded.

The little guy was thinking that she might never have the chance to meet her brother again in her whole life.

Just when she was extremely sad, suddenly, a hand was stretched out from the alley next to her, and she was directly grabbed into it!
Before Shen Ningning could exclaim in surprise, his mouth was covered.

In the dilapidated alley, there were four or five tall men standing.

A man in a mandarin jacket and long gown, who looked treacherous and treacherous, looked at Shen Ningning with a half-hearted smile.

"Let me just say, how did the treasurer Fang of Huichun Hall suddenly become rich? He thought he was favored by the gods to get so many medicinal materials. It turns out that you sold the good medicinal materials to him!"

Shen Ningning took two steps back, her watery eyes were vigilant: "I sold it to him, and there are no more medicinal materials."

The philistine man laughed: "If you sell something to him, you are ruining my business. Cutting off someone's money is like killing someone's life. Little girl, do you understand?"

After he finished speaking, the strong man at the side suddenly took out a dagger and pressed it against Shen Ningning's face.

The man threatened: "Nian you are a child, I will let you go, if I dare to see you selling medicinal materials to him again, I will ask your family to collect your body!"

After that, he winked, and the strong man took out a piece of paper.

The man said: "This complaint states that you were forced to sell medicinal materials to Shopkeeper Fang. I will report it to the government for you. If the government asks you, you can say that he forced you and ask him to pay back double the money."

"Sign, draw and pledge, and I'll let you go!"

Shen Ningning struggled: "I don't want it, I don't want to lie!"

"You can't help it!" The man became forceful: "Press her and let her draw!"

The little guy immediately touched his finger and was about to hide in the fairyland.

suddenly!

A dark shadow fell from the sky.

The knee was directly on the back of the neck of the strong man who was holding Shen Ningning.

The strong man crashed down!

Before Shen Ningning could react, he was already grabbed by a hand and dragged behind the man.

She raised her clear eyes and saw a thin figure.
