The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Becomes a Disciple of Yue Buqun

Chen Qingyuan drank a glass of wine, sighed again, and said, "Chen has thought it through. It is difficult for Jin'er to get married in her situation. Even if she finds someone to marry, she will inevitably be discriminated against by her husband's family. Instead of doing that, it is better to let Jin'er do what she wants. If she finds someone she likes, as long as the other person has good character, then it's fine. If Jin'er doesn't want to get married in this life, her mother and I will respect her wishes. Anyway, her mother and I are still young."

Jiang Ning said nothing.

Even the daughter of an official like Chen Qingyuan found it difficult to get married after being abused by Tian Boguang. The situation of girls from ordinary families would be even worse.

Jiang Ning also asked about the plight of several other women in Hanzhong Prefecture who were raped by Tian Boguang.

“They are all fine now.”

Chen Qingyuan said: "They are also victims. I felt sorry for them, so I gave them some money to live on. I also told them that if anyone bullied them in their lives, they could report it to the government, and the government would take care of it for them."

Jiang Ning nodded.

That's good.

"correct."

At this point, Chen Qingyuan laughed. "I wonder if Mr. Jiang still remembers a constable named Tan?"

Detective Tan?

When Chen Qingyuan said this, Jiang Ning remembered the young constable he met when he went to Hanzhong before.

He was deeply impressed by the constable.

"Remember, what happened?"

Chen Qingyuan smiled and said, "I heard that he knows you. That young detective has a strong sense of justice, works diligently, is capable, and has drive. I made him the chief detective. Now the public security in Hanzhong Prefecture is very good under his management, and there are fewer thefts and illegal activities."

Jiang Ning was surprised when he heard this, nodded and said nothing more.

"It's just that the little detective is too straightforward and doesn't know how to deal with people, so he often offends some noble children."

Chen Qingyuan continued, "But this is also his duty. The government is to manage the safety of the people under its jurisdiction and stop all illegal activities. It's just that his martial arts skills are poor. Not only him, but also other detectives in the yamen have poor martial arts skills. It's okay at ordinary times. If they encounter those Jianghu people committing crimes again, the yamen will not be able to intervene even if they want to. When I was the prefect of Hanzhong, I thought about letting them go to Huashan Sect to learn martial arts, so that they would have martial arts skills and would not let the Jianghu people run away when they encounter crimes again."

Chen Qingyuan smiled bitterly and said, "It's just that just when I was about to visit Master Yue of your sect, I received the news of the imperial court's transfer, so the matter was delayed."

"That's it."

Jiang Ning nodded thoughtfully and said, "If that's the case, I'll talk to my master when I get back. It should be fine, but my master and his men are not in Huashan right now, so I'm afraid they won't be back in the short term."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Jiang."

Chen Qingyuan was delighted.

"I will write a letter to the current prefect of Hanzhong in two days, instructing him to have Captain Tan take the constables to Huashan to learn martial arts."

The current prefect of Hanzhong was his former subordinate and student, and belonged to his school. Now he has received a verbal promise from Jiang Ning, which is equivalent to connecting his student with the Huashan Sect. The Huashan Sect is a big sect in Shaanxi. If there are any big thieves causing trouble in Hanzhong in the future, they can ask the Huashan Sect for help.

After resolving this matter, Chen Qingyuan asked about Jiang Ning's purpose of coming to the capital.

"Mr. Jiang, what are you doing in the capital now? If so, perhaps I can do my best to help you."

Jiang Ning smiled and shook his head: "I have been traveling around recently and just happened to come to the capital."

Chen Qingyuan nodded and asked, "I wonder how long Mr. Jiang plans to stay in the capital. If you don't mind, how about staying in my mansion for a while?"

Jiang Ning shook his head and refused: "That's not necessary. I'm just visiting the capital for a few days, so I won't bother Mr. Chen."

Chen Qingyuan felt a little regretful when he saw this.

People like Jiang Ning are not ordinary people, and it is beneficial to have a deeper friendship with them, but the other party is obviously unwilling, so he can't say anything more, so as not to cause the other party's displeasure, which would be counterproductive.

Just as Chen Qingyuan was about to speak, there was a sudden noise outside, attracting the attention of both men.

At this time, the two were on the second floor of the restaurant, sitting near the window. After hearing the noise outside, they looked out the window.

Someone was riding a horse in the busy city.

"Get out! Get out of here!"

A man was riding a horse recklessly on the street, cursing all the time.

Pedestrians saw this and panicked and moved out of the way.

"Get away from me!"

The riders on horseback continued to shout.

The man was dressed in luxurious clothes, and the horse he rode was also extremely majestic. He must be rich or noble. In addition, he dared to ride a horse in a place like the capital, so he must be a noble.

Ok?

Jiang Ning had previously thought that the capital's security was good, but now he saw people riding horses in the downtown area.

Chen Qingyuan also saw the appearance of the man on horseback, and his expression changed.

Jiang Ning did not notice the change in Chen Qingyuan's expression, because he saw a civilian who was unable to dodge and was blocking the man on horseback in the middle of the road and was about to hit him.

"roll!"

Upon seeing this, the man on horseback raised the whip in his hand and lashed at the man's face. Even the lightest blow would result in skin and flesh being torn apart.

"Master Jiang, we..."

Chen Qingyuan was about to speak, but Jiang Ning flew out of the window the next second, landed in front of the citizen, and reached out to grab the whip.

"Shut up!"

Jiang Ning grabbed the whip in the rider's hand, causing him to lose balance. He quickly gripped the reins to steady himself and avoid falling off the horse.

"Who are you to stop my horse?"

The man on horseback was a middle-aged man, and he asked Jiang Ning angrily.

When Jiang Ning let go of his hand, he asked the citizen behind him to leave quickly to avoid being implicated.

Hearing the middle-aged man's shouting, Jiang Ning narrowed his eyes.

The middle-aged man was still shouting.

"Do you know who I am? You dare to stop my horse. Do you want to die?"

At this time, Chen Qingyuan, who was running down from the second floor, turned green when he heard the middle-aged man's shouting.

Chapter 414: I'm saving your life!

Chapter 414: I'm saving your life!

The middle-aged man looked at Jiang Ning with anger on his face, holding the whip in his hand as if he was ready to whip him at any time.

"Misunderstanding."

Chen Qingyuan, who was afraid that Jiang Ning would start a massacre on the street if he was a second slower, hurried forward to persuade them to reconcile.

"My Lord, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding."

Mr. Hou?

Jiang Ning looked up and down at the middle-aged man on horseback.

No wonder he is so arrogant.

"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding? Who are you? How dare you interfere in my affairs?"

The middle-aged man was still arrogant, especially after Chen Qingyuan recognized him.

……

"Master, let's slow down."

On another street, a young man was looking around excitedly, with several people chasing after him.

"Master, slow down. I can't catch up."

A man who looked like a servant shouted repeatedly.

The young man who was running in the front did not stop and said without turning his head: "Hurry up, you guys finally got out here, how can you not have some fun?"

"Master, please be careful. If anything goes wrong, we, the little ones, will never be able to atone for our sins even if we die a thousand times."

The servant was very nervous.

Another man said, "Master, your physical strength is too good. We can't catch up with you."

"Ha ha ha ha."

The young man's laughter rang out.

"Then you should exercise more."

"Master, slow down."

Several people were very nervous when they saw the young man running so fast.

This young man was too playful and every time he came out he was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins. However, they did not dare to chase him too closely, for fear that he would not have enough fun. They could only shout from behind.

Having such an active man is also a physically demanding job.

Several people thought in their hearts.

But no matter what you think, you still have to follow closely, otherwise if the young person runs away, it will be a big deal.

Several people hurriedly ran after him, but as they ran, they found that the young man stopped and stood behind a board, motionless, with a focused expression, as if he was looking at something.

Several people hurried over and before they could say anything, the young man signaled them to shut up.

These people were curious and looked in the direction he was looking, only to find a middle-aged man on horseback and two other people standing in the middle of the road.

"what?"

The man who spoke at the beginning exclaimed in surprise when he recognized the middle-aged man on horseback.

"Isn't this Lord Zhang? How come he..."

Before the man could finish his words, the young man glared at him and the man quickly shut up.

This gentleman is just watching the fun.

The few of them didn't dare to speak, and they just quietly watched the excitement in front with the young man.

……

Faced with the middle-aged man's arrogance and domineering behavior, Chen Qingyuan broke out in cold sweat on his forehead.

"My Lord, I am Chen Qingyuan, and I have just arrived in the capital to take up my post."
