"Why are you so afraid that I will talk to him about you?"
"Oh! There is no special reason! In short, Uncle Zhou, don't talk to him about my affairs, okay?"
Yan Ning clasped his hands together and begged for the word.
"hehe......"
Zhou Changmin smiled thoughtfully and teased her deliberately: "If he took the initiative to ask about something related to you, how should I answer?"
"You just don't know anything!"
"Haha...well then!"
"Hehe, thank you Uncle Zhou! I'll make tea for you now! You'll be ready to drink it when you come later!"
Seeing that Zhou Changmin agreed, Yan Ning said happily.
......
Zhou Changmin only brought a personal guard, and Lin Xu didn't even take him alone. Although Zhou Changmin was the governor of Jiangsu, Linshan Village was his own territory. He believed that Zhou Changmin would not do anything randomly.
Besides, if Zhou Changmin had other intentions, there was no need for him to come and take risks in person.
"Lin Xu, how did you and Yan Ning meet?"
Although he agreed not to talk about things related to Yan Ning, this is what Zhou Changmin said in the first sentence.
"I met her by chance on a merchant ship. Later, she went to Ruhai College to listen to Mr. Huangshi's lecture. We happened to meet in the county town. Later, she found Linshan Village."
Lin Xu told the truth.
"What do you mean is that Yan Ning came here on his own initiative?"
"right."
"Then she also volunteered to live here?"
"certainly."
Lin Xu smiled: "We are just a remote mountain village, and there is no restriction on the right to enter and exit anyone freely. If she hadn't stayed here voluntarily, she would have left long ago."
"Do you know who she is?"
Zhou Changmin stopped and looked at Lin Xu and asked.
"I asked, but she didn't say it, but I could guess it."
Lin Xu said frankly.
"Um......"
Zhou Changmin nodded: "You can naturally see with your understanding. Then you should know how heavy she is! If she makes any mistakes with you, can you bear it in your small mountain village?"
"Then what does Lord Zhou mean?"
Lin Xu was not scared and asked back without being humble or arrogant.
Zhou Changmin did not answer this question. He looked at the sky in the distance with his hands behind his back and said, "I heard that you have recruited veterans and young men to form an army privately, and even built a group of them."
Weapons and armor?”
After hearing this question, Lin Xu couldn't help but feel sank, but he still said calmly: "Mr. Zhou is right. I did form an army, but it's not 'private'!"
"Haha, the fifth-rank guerrilla general is indeed not considered as 'private' forming an army!"
Zhou Changmin said with a playful smile.
Lin Xu was stunned, but then he understood that Liu Mingju had asked for the position of a fifth-rank guerrilla general for himself. Although not many people knew about this, it was not a secret after all. With Zhou Changmin's energy, he knew about it.
It's so normal. If he doesn't know, it's a bit abnormal!
"I'm just a fifth-rank official, but I didn't expect that the Lord Futai would know about it."
Lin Xu said modestly.
"A mere fifth-rank official?"
Zhou Changmin suddenly raised his tone and said in a cold tone: "You are so big! The county magistrate is only a seventh rank, you actually say that the fifth rank is still a small official! Even a military general is definitely not a small official.
!Is it so worthless in your eyes that the official positions of our Daning Dynasty are so valuable!"
