Shaowei Mansion quietly stood in the imperial city without alarming anyone. Luo Jun did not have a big banquet for guests, but the wonderful thing was that on the day of the opening of the mansion, many nobles came to give gifts.

Naturally, Lan Tianji and Wei Wuji would not come. Instead, Wen Hou sent a gift to him.

These high-ranking officials sent gifts, and left after giving them gifts, and did not leave them for dinner. In the evening, Luo Jun counted the gifts, and the gifts were really valuable.

Qiao Ning smiled and said, "The emperor has a vague attitude towards you, but these high-ranking officials will not easily make enemies. Gifts represent a heartfelt intention, and everyone is willing to sell it well. If the emperor doesn't need you in the future, then forget it. If you become famous, everyone will have a friendship in front of you."

Luo Jun also understood this principle. He smiled and said, "I was a reckless man, but I didn't expect that I could still be an official in this life."

In fact, Luo Jun knew many principles, and he was very proficient in formations, Zhou Yi Bagua numerology, etc. He could easily pick up the geometric equations on the formations. But in reality, he would be shocked if he really solved the equations.

In the vast world, in the era of science and technology, modern high-tech talents are emphasized, especially when appointing officials. Education is an absolute evaluation indicator. As for Luo Jun's education, it is impossible to become an official. In troubled times, it is possible.

So at this moment, Luo Jun was still somewhat moved.

In the evening, the housekeeper Lin Bo counted all the gifts, stored them and compiled them, and then handed them over to Luo Jun for review. At the same time, Lin Bo arranged two maids to serve Luo Jun and Qiao Ning. They were Biyue and Bitao. Biyue served Luo Jun and Bitao served Qiao Ning.

Luo Jun chose two particularly good bedrooms for himself and Qiao Ning. With such decoration, Qiao Ning fell in love with Shaowei Mansion.

Qiao Ning said, "I have my own cave on Binghu Island, but there are only two girls in there. After Mingyue Girl died, I was alone. But there was no fun in your Shaowei Mansion."

Luo Jun was slightly stunned, and then said, "After Mingyue's death, are you very sad?"

Qiao Ning's face darkened, and she said, "Mingyue has been following me since she was a child, and her death has dealt a big blow to me."

Luo Jun said, "I'm sorry."

Qiao Ning looked at Luo Jun and said, "Why do you say sorry? I don't believe that you will kill Mingyue with such a personality."

Luo Jun said: "Mingyue was indeed not what I killed, but at that time, I could save Mingyue. But I was also greedy for your thunder talisman, so I watched Ling Kun kill Mingyue. Miss Qiao, I'm sorry, if it's now, I will protect Mingyue even if I fight to the death."

"It's not your fault." Qiao Ning said: "It's normal that you and I didn't know each other at that time. You don't owe me anything, nor do you owe Mingyue anything. It's just that I owe Mingyue."

"Then Ling Kun has been killed by me." Luo Jun said.

"I know." Qiao Ning said.

Luo Jun suddenly said, "Miss Qiao, can you promise me something?"

Qiao Ning looked at Luo Jun strangely and said, "What?"

Luo Jun said, "Don't die, I can't accept that the people around me will leave me." As he said this, a look of grief flashed in his eyes.

The incident with Ling'er, Luo Feirong's death, and Luo Ning's death, all the blows made Luo Jun feel sad and felt that this fate was too sad.

Luo Jun couldn't help but ask in his heart: "Is my luck really good? What is the reason for my father killing my mother? The people I love, the people I love, the people I love will die, the wound will be injured, what is this for?"

Qiao Ning was stunned for a moment. For a moment, the softest thing in her heart was touched by Luo Jun's words. She saw Luo Jun's injuries and pain with her own eyes, so she deeply understood the meaning of Luo Jun's words.

"Okay!" Qiao Ning smiled lightly and said, "I promise you."

Luo Jun also smiled and said, "One word is certain."

"One word is certain!"

Late at night, Shaowei Mansion welcomed a special guest. This person is no one else, but Nie Meiniang, who has been missing for a long time.

Nie Meiniang was dressed in black, and she became much more haggard.

Luo Jun met Nie Meiniang in the study. Nie Meiniang was very quiet and talked little. Luo Jun asked Biyue to make hot tea.

"Are you okay?" Luo Jun asked softly.

Nie Meiniang looked up at Luo Jun, and she said, "The young master was sentenced to imprisonment by the marquis and was not allowed to leave Sijie within three years."

Luo Jun was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "This is good news."

Nie Meiniang smiled, but she didn't say much.

Luo Jun said again: "Do you plan to stay in the Marquis' Mansion all the time?"

Nie Meiniang said, "There is no second way to go, right?" She paused and said, "You are a life-threatening death this time. I don't have the good luck of you. If I leave the Marquis' Mansion, I will be dead."

Luo Jun remained silent. He really couldn't accept Nie Meiniang to Shaowei Mansion. Because Nie Meiniang was indeed from the Marquis' Mansion, the people from the Marquis' Mansion ran to Shaowei Mansion. Is this possible? Lan Tianji can intervene legitimately or kill Nie Meiniang.

Luo Jun said, "Then you will not cause you trouble when you come to Shaowei Mansion tonight, right?"

Nie Meiniang said, "It doesn't matter. At worst, it's all right to die! But you opened a house today, and as a friend, I have to come and see it."

Luo Jun said sincerely: "Thank you!" He paused and said: "If you have the chance, I will definitely save you from the Marquis' Mansion. But at that time, I don't know if you are willing to leave the Marquis' Mansion."

Nie Meiniang looked at Luo Jun in a daze, and she said, "Why are you so kind to me?"

Luo Jun said: "Apart from our friends, are there any other explanations?"

Nie Meiniang smiled and said, "Yes, there is no other explanation." She paused and said, "I brought you a gift." As she said, she took out a small brocade box.

Luo Jun took it, he was a little confused and said, "What is it?"

Nie Meiniang said, "You can see again after I leave."

Luo Jun was slightly stunned, then said, "Okay!"

Nie Meiniang said again: "I know that the young master is not a good person. He treats me and never treats me as a real person. At most, it is a tool. If you use it well, you can make him smile. If you use it poorly, you can throw it away at any time."

Luo Jun couldn't help but wonder and said, "Since you understand, why do you still have to..."

"My life was given by the young master." Nie Meiniang said: "I was killed by my family by my enemies back then. It was the young master who saved me and helped me avenge me. My life is no longer mine. I can only repay my son with death."

Luo Jun remained silent.

Everyone has their own principles of being a human being in their hearts, and he cannot say that Nie Meiniang is wrong.

Then, Nie Meiniang left.

Luo Jun opened the brocade box given by Nie Meiniang, but there was a black bead, only half the size of an egg. The black bead was extremely round.

The black beads were pitch black. Luo Jun couldn't help but wonder, what exactly was this?

He held the black beads in his hand and looked at them for a moment, but he couldn't feel anything. Moreover, he couldn't even find his magic power.

"Damn, what the hell?" Luo Jun was surprised.

Even if it is diamond, Luo Jun's magic power can be explored and the molecules inside are instantly decomposed.

Sometimes, when you encounter a powerful magic weapon, the power inside will appear to exclude Luo Jun's magic power. However, it is a bit strange if you can't directly penetrate it like you like in front of you.

Luo Jun was extremely curious. He wanted to ask Nie Meiniang clearly what this black bead was. But he couldn't ask because Nie Meiniang's identity was too sensitive.

Luo Jun naturally knew that this black bead was not an ordinary product. He thought about it and it was not too early tonight, so let's talk about it tomorrow.

The next morning, Luo Jun showed Qiao Ning the black beads.

Qiao Ning also faced the same embarrassment, even her magic power could not be penetrated.

Qiao Ning said, "I don't know what the structure of this black bead is. It's very strange. I have never seen it before. However, Tianchi Pavilion is of great power. You can go and ask Tianchi Pavilion."

Luo Jun said: "Tianchi Pavilion is very greedy. If this black bead is really a treasure, they will definitely find a way to get it away for me."

Qiao Ning said: "You can find Su Yanran as a friend."

Luo Jun thought about it and said, "That's right, I'll go find Su Yanran."

Just as Luo Jun was about to leave Shaowei Mansion, an eunuch outside the door rushed over. After the eunuch arrived, he broke into Shaowei Mansion all the way. The servants of Shaowei Mansion did not dare to stop him.

"The imperial edict is here, General Shaowei is coming out quickly to receive the edict!" After the eunuch came in, he shouted loudly.

This eunuch was not the eunuch from last time, and Luo Jun didn't know him.

But Luo Jun dared not neglect when encountering an imperial edict. Qiao Ning would not come out of this situation. She didn't like to kowtow to anyone, including the emperor.

Luo Jun led a group of servants, housekeepers and others to kneel down to receive the order.

The eunuch issued an imperial edict and said, "In accordance with the heavens, the emperor's edict said, "I heard that a locust plague occurred in Linxi County, and the victims were everywhere, and the people were living in poverty. The Supreme Sect took the opportunity to cause trouble, deceived the victims and gathered bandits, intending to rebel against our great prosperity. Who can be tolerated? I ordered General Shaowei Luo Jun and Major General Zhenyuan Lan Tingyu to go to the Ministry of War to lead military talismans, and escort food and grass and silver to Linxi County to rescue and quell the disaster. I respect this!"

Luo Jun said: "I will accept the order!"

Afterwards, Luo Jun received the imperial edict, and the eunuch left immediately without saying much.

Qiao Ning came out immediately after the eunuch left.

Luo Jun waved his hand to let everyone go, and he said to Qiao Ning with some depression: "You heard it just now."

Qiao Ning said: "That's right."

Luo Jun said: "The emperor asked me and Lan Tingyu to go to help with disaster relief. What is this? Don't he know that Lan Tingyu and I are not harmonious?"

Qiao Ning said, "This is the emperor testing you and putting pressure on you. If this time, Lan Tingyu completely suppresses you, or you suppresses Lan Tingyu, you will both of you feel very uncomfortable. As for the result, it depends on your ability."
