Chapter 164: A Speck of Dust in History
The inner house of the Ding family's manor.
In the room of the housekeeper Ding Ning, a subordinate stood respectfully in the hall: "Butler, according to the rules of the clan, as soon as the time passes, the patriarch should burn incense and sacrifice to the sky on the flag stand in front of the dragon wall to pray for the blessings of the clan, but tonight, the head of the family is not in the clan, look at this ......"
"Forget it, the Ding family is now in an eventful time, what are you doing with all this red tape. ”
Ding Ning, the housekeeper who is over sixty years old, has a sad face and waves his hand: "This year's blessing ceremony is exempt!"
The subordinate looked embarrassed: "But the housekeeper, the blessing ceremony for the New Year has lasted for more than a hundred years......"
"Bang!"
Ding Ning shook his hand and threw the teacup on the ground, showing anger on his face: "Now the head of the family is not in the mansion!
"The villain doesn't dare!"
The subordinate was frightened, and slowly stepped back: "In this case, you also rest early, I will inform the clansmen that there is no need to wait!"
After the next man's words, Fei also fled the room.
"Alas...... Woe to the family!"
After Ding Ning scolded the retreat, he got up with the table and slowly walked towards the bedroom, his old eyes were full of helplessness, he was born in the Ding family, and he naturally had deep feelings for the Ding valve.
"Bang dang!"
As soon as Ding Ning took a step, the sound of the door opening came from behind him.
"Didn't I say it! This year's festival has been canceled! Why are you bothering me......?!
Ding Ning, who was already depressed, suddenly turned around and scolded angrily, and before he finished speaking, he was immediately stunned.
In front of the door of the room, Ji Haotian was dressed in a brocade robe, with a handsome and unparalleled Wen Keren.
Walk slowly into the hall.
"W-How are you?!"
Ding Ning saw Ji Haotian coming in the door, as if he had seen a ghost, his voice trembled, and he retreated again and again, until his body hit a table, and then stopped.
On that day, when Ji Haotian was on top of the Ding family's golden palace, slaughtering the Ding lord clan and forcing the old family owner Ding Haicang to death, Ding Ning was also at the scene.
At this moment, when he saw Ji Haotian coming to Ding's house again, his heart was about to hang in his throat.
As a person who witnessed Ji Haotian's killing, Ding Ning knew better than anyone how lethal this young man with a stunning appearance and seemingly harmless to humans and animals was.
"Why can't it be me. ”
Ji Haotian sat on the chair in Ding Ning's room relaxedly, with a comfortable and calm expression: "Why I came, you know very well, don't you?"
Ding Ning heard Ji Hao's providence, his heart suddenly contracted, his breathing was unprovokedly short, even though the room was warm like spring, the cold sweat on his face was still overflowing.
This morning, the four valves decided to join forces to deal with Ji Haotian, and the Ding family, as the initiator of the alliance of the four valves, should naturally take the lead, so the people who were responsible for the Zhennan Fund were all contacted by the Ding family, and Ding Jinchong handed over the matter to Ding Ning, the chief housekeeper in the house.
King Pingxi came to Yunzhou, because of Kong Haoji's matter, and the local military attache Lei Chong clashed, such a big event, although it was covered up in the people, but the high-level of Yunzhou had already been rumored.
Ding Ning, as the planner, naturally learned the news earlier, so since Ji Haotian entered the door, he already knew the purpose of the other party's trip.
"Tuk Tuk!"
Ji Haotian sat on the Taishi chair in the main hall, his fingers rhythmically tapping on the tabletop, and the subtle sound was like a drum beating on Ding Ning's heart.
The extremely depressing atmosphere made Ding Ning like a mang on his back, and he didn't dare to look up at Ji Haotian anymore: "Today, Kong Haoji and others are embarrassed by Zhennan Fund, and it is indeed me who is hindering it." ”
Ji Haotian sat precariously, smiling without saying a word.
Without any words or actions, the mere fact that he was here was enough to make the entire Ding Valve feel uneasy.
"The reason why I targeted the Zhennan Fund is completely one person, and it has nothing to do with the Ding family. ”
Ding Ning knew that he was in a catastrophe, he was promoted by the old master Ding Haicang at the age of seventeen, and served as the butler of the Ding valve for almost his life, under one person, above ten thousand, in addition to the love of master and servant, he also had deep feelings for the Ding family, since he knew that it was unavoidable, he directly took everything on himself:" I have a deep friendship with the old master Ding Haicang, and when I saw you forcing him to kill himself, I felt resentful in my heart, so I had the intention of revenge, since you want an explanation, my old life, I will be handed over to you today, if you want to kill or chop, listen to it, but please don't embarrass the Ding Valve clan!"
"You did it alone?"
Ji Haotian glanced at Ding Ning coldly: "Many officials have taken huge risks to violate the law and extort donations, and the value has reached tens of billions, this kind of thing, if there is no personal guarantee from the lord of a valve, how can you be a housekeeper alone?"
"I have been the steward of the Ding valve for decades, and many powerful people in this Yunzhou have become acquainted with me, and they have a very personal relationship with me, since I have spoken, they will naturally agree!"
Ji Haotian's eyes not only made Ding Ning sweat, but even his soul felt cold to the bone, but for the sake of Ding Valve's continuation, he still decided to give up his life and resist this matter, facing the anger of Ji Haotian, the killing god, alone.
It's a pity that Ji Haotian will not let go of the Ding family because of this.
"I have not come to discuss right and wrong with you. ”
Ji Haotian seemed to be smiling, and glanced at Ding Ning: "Just as Ding Valve survives today, it can't be up to you." ”
Ding Ning was stunned, looked at Ji Haotian in astonishment, and didn't react for a long time, what he meant by this.
In an instant, Ji Haotian's arrogant and domineering appearance of killing gods reappeared in Ding Ning's mind.
Thinking of that night, Ding Ning shivered again.
After all, what happened that night was too memorable.
"But, one thing you're right. ”
Ji Haotian's tone was indifferent: "Even if you are not the culprit in today's matter, you are still to blame, you ...... Damn, moreover, the entire Ding family, deserve to die!"
"Ji Haotian! Don't be too arrogant! Although my Ding Valve has been severely injured by you once, I will never be killed by the neck! What's more, even if you can destroy my Ding Valve, can you still wipe out all the families in Yunzhou? You are so willing to kill and perverse, are you not afraid of arousing the anger of heroes from all walks of life in Yunzhou? !
When Ding Ning heard this answer, the whole person's emotions became excited, today's Ding valve has long been broken, full of devastation, the old master is dead, the young master is young, as a loyal servant of the Ding family, how can he retreat when this family is ruined?
It's a pity that in the face of Ji Haotian, Ding Ning's threat has pale and powerless.
The once invincible Ding Valve is now threatening Ji Haotian, and he actually uses Yunzhou Cangsheng as an excuse, how ridiculous?
"When I was young, my father taught me to be kind to the world, but unfortunately, he is gone. ”
Ji Haotian didn't care about Ding Ning's threat: "Now I have a bottom line in my heart, this bottom line is very shallow and fragile, it can't be touched by anyone, for those who turn a blind eye to Ji's bottom line, my way to deal with it is very simple......"
Immediately, Ji Haotian's aura was restrained, and his eyes became much sharper: "One person violates the ban, and the family is buried together!"
Seeing the fleeting light in Ji Haotian's eyes, Ding Ning's mind went blank for a moment, he already knew his ending, but he still tried to make the last struggle: "Today's matter, although I Ding Valve is to blame, but hundreds of clansmen ......"
"You, you're not qualified to ask for a young seat in my family!"
Before the words fell, Wen Keren had already appeared in front of Ding Ning.
The posture is tactful, and the sword is like a rainbow.
"Goo-dong!"
Ding Ning fell to the ground in response, and his eyes gradually drifted.
At this moment, his gaze followed the open door and cast into the distance.
The huge Ding valve manor has long been turned into a sea of fire.
Ding Ning didn't understand.
Over the years, there have been countless forces that covet the wealth of Yunzhou and want to get involved in it, but none of them have succeeded.
Whether it is the royal nobles or the wealthy businessmen from other places, countless fierce dragons who have crossed the river have sunk into the sand and returned in vain when facing the six valves.
But why, Ji Haotian is a raptor.
Facing Panhuan Yunzhou, the limelight is the same as the six valves.
But, like entering a no-man's land?!
Ding Ning didn't think about this problem until he died.
But he knows very clearly that the Yunzhou Ding family, which has been strong for a hundred years and has created countless histories.
After all, it has also become a speck of dust in history.
