Qi Ning suddenly kicked Feida Xi Chong, and everyone present was shocked, never imagined that Jin Yihou would actually do it to the waiter of the Criminal Department in front of everyone.

Da Xi Chong fell to the ground, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he couldn't get up for a while, but Qi Ning had already rushed up with an arrow, regardless of Da Xi Chong's subordinates coming forward, his knees pressed down, and he had already pressed on Da Xi Chong's chest, Qi Ning raised his hand, and hit Da Xi Chong in the face with a punch, and said angrily: "My brocade clothes Qi family's reputation for many years, how precious is it, you dare to frame my Qi family to protect the palace?" Are you saying that our Qi family is also plotting rebellion? ”

Da Xichong wanted to speak, Qi Ning punched again, hitting the side bone of his cheek, Qi Ning knows the structure of the human body very well, and naturally knows where to fight, this punch went down, and blood splashed out of Da Xichong's mouth, and he came out with two teeth, and Da Xichong couldn't say it if he wanted to.

Although everyone in the criminal department rushed over, they all knew Qi Ning's identity, who dared to eat the bear's heart and leopard's guts to stop the brocade clothes under the rage.

Qi Ning punched left and right, and in a moment, more than a dozen punches had been thrown, Da Xichong's face was covered with blood, and the whole person was already dazed, and he couldn't even scream.

Chi Fengdian finally stepped forward at this time and persuaded: "Hou Ye is angry, Hou Ye is angry, Lord Daxi may have misspoken, for the sake of the humble general's face, spare him this time." ”

Qi Ning seemed to be angry, but he still withdrew his hand, he punched continuously, his hands were already stained with blood, and he wiped it clean on Da Xichong's official robe, and then he got up, as if he still didn't understand the hatred in his heart, and kicked him twice, and then said to Chi Fengdian: "Commander Chi, Ben Hou is not easy to get angry on weekdays, this Da Xichong is an official in the DPRK and China after all, even if he says something wrong, I can bear it, but he dares to slander the Hou Mansion to cover the palace today, such a big hat is buttoned down, and he can't stand it." ”

"That's what Master Hou said." Chi Fengdian persuaded: "Lord Daxi will definitely not be offended in the future." ”

Qi Ning said: "I don't care if I offend Ben Hou or not, but if I want to slander the Qi family in brocade clothes, even if I run to the ends of the earth, Ben Hou will not let go." The Qi family in brocade clothes is a clear name saved by several generations, the Qi family has always been loyal to the emperor and the court, and it can be seen every day. ”

Da Xichong was lying on the ground, dying, he was already a little delirious by Qi Ning's violent beating, at this time, he couldn't say anything, even if he couldn't even say a word.

Chi Fengdian thought to himself that Qi Ning claimed that Da Xichong slandered the Jinyi Qi family, which was quite a scoundrel, but Da Xichong did not choose his words, and dared to be presumptuous in front of Jinyihou, which was also unlucky.

Everyone in the criminal department looked at each other, looking at Da Xichong, who was lying on the ground and couldn't move, and didn't know what to do for a while.

Chi Fengdian said in a deep voice: "Lord Daxi is injured like this, what are you waiting for?" He was not taken to the doctor. ”

The official of the criminal department stepped forward at this time, raised Da Xichong with seven hands and eight feet, and did not dare to stay here again, Jinyi Hou even beat the waiter of the criminal department, and the others naturally did not care, no one dared to provoke, and surrounded Da Xichong and left in embarrassment.

Qi Ning then straightened his clothes, suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, looked back, only to see a few people carrying a sedan chair over, followed by more than 20 people, the sedan chair landed, the household Shangshu Dou Kui had already come down from the sedan chair, saw Qi Ning, immediately trotted over, humbly arched his hand and said: "Xiaguan to meet the Hou Ye!" ”

Qi Ning smiled: "Lord Dou, I am waiting for you." ”

"Xia Guan has just received the order, and he didn't dare to delay, so he selected some shrewd and capable people to come over, and asked Hou Ye to forgive his sins." Dou Kui's attitude towards Qi Ning was as cautious as before.

Chi Fengdian knew this, and arched his hand: "Lord Dou, the Yulin camp is guarding outside the palace, if Lord Dou and Lord Hou need it, they can be mobilized at any time." ”

Dou Kui nodded and said: "The palace is too big, and all kinds of things are scattered, so it's not easy to count." Commander Chi can transfer some people into the palace to gather all the wealth, silk, calligraphy, painting and antiques of the palace, and then we will register them one by one. He looked at Qi Ning again and said cautiously: "I don't know what Master Hou thinks?" ”

Qi Ning said with a smile: "Ben Hou is the first time to raid the house, and he doesn't know anything about this, Master Dou can do what he thinks he should do, don't ask me." ”

Dou Kui hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes." Xiang Chi Fengdian said: "Commander Chi will lend me fifty people." ”

Chi Fengdian said: "But it depends on the dispatch of adults." ”

Qi Ning didn't say much, and walked into the palace, Dou Kui also followed with the management of the household department, and a royal family member who knelt on the ground put his forehead on the ground, and he didn't dare to move, no matter men, women, young and old, they were like lambs to be slaughtered.

Qi Ning knew in his heart that before the fall of King Huainan, as the family members of the palace, even the gatekeepers of the palace, they were all envied by others, and felt that they were high, not to mention the ladies and ladies of the palace, but as soon as the big tree of the king of Huainan fell, the former status and pride were gone with the wind, and the ladies and ladies who were once high in the palace could only let others dictate their fate.

Looking at the dense crowd of people kneeling on the ground, Qi Ning felt a little cold in his vest.

He suddenly thought that if one day he was defeated in the struggle between the DPRK and China, would the Jinyi Marquis Mansion also end up like this? Will Gu Qinghan also kneel on the ground and let people eat meat?

Thinking of this, Qi Ning's eyes became cold.

He understands that this kind of struggle has always been a matter of life and death, and if you want to survive, there is only one way, and that is to completely eradicate all enemies, and this kind of game is too cruel to end without distinguishing the winner or loser.

At this time, Chi Fengdian had already ordered fifty soldiers to enter the mansion to obey the dispatch, Dou Kui instructed: "You are all brothers of the Yulin Battalion, I don't need to say much about the rules, each of you will allocate good manpower, search all parts of the palace, remember, don't leave a room behind, don't leave a place, but all antique calligraphy, painting, gold and silver utensils, must be gathered, if you find something special, you must report it immediately, there must be no mistakes." ”

All the soldiers bowed their hands in unison and said, "Get the order." ”

"There's one more thing that shouldn't be said, but it has to be said." Dou Kui said: "Confiscate the family wealth and return it to the treasury, if someone is bold enough to hide stolen goods privately, according to the laws of the imperial court, the three clans, I think you all know." He waved his hand: "Let's go and do things." ”

Immediately they parted and searched all parts of the palace.

Dou Kui turned to Qi Ning and said respectfully: "Hou Ye might as well go into the hall and have a cup of tea, wait for the stolen goods to be searched, gather them, and the lower officials will register the confiscated family property in the register, and then present it to Hou Ye." ”

Qi Ning said: "Lord Dou doesn't have to worry about me, just do an errand." He glanced at the people who were kneeling on the ground, frowned and asked, "Where is the son?" ”

Everyone didn't dare to speak, and Dou Kui had already said in a deep voice: "Where is the son, who knows?" ”

At this time, one person raised his head and said, "Lord Hui, the prince...... Shizi seems to be on the other side of the fish pond. ”

Qi Ning said: "You take me to see the prince." ”

The man hurriedly got up and bent over, Qi Ning motioned to the man to lead the way, and Dou Kui hurriedly said, "Master Hou, do you want to send a few people to follow .....!" ”

"Not necessarily." Qi Ning shook his head and said, "I can do it myself." He was very confident in his martial arts, and he knew that in this palace, he was afraid that no one would be able to threaten his safety.

Dou Kui is very concerned about his safety, Qi Ning naturally knows the reason, officials like Dou Kui, who used to be close to the king of Huainan, are worried about the revenge of the Sima family, and they are afraid of ruin, lest they usher in a catastrophe, and now this group of people are pinning their safety on Qi Ning, in case Qi Ning has a mistake, the consequences are unimaginable, and the scene of the raided house of the Huainan palace today will be repeated in those officials.

The man led Qi Ning through the corridor and courtyard, and when he arrived at an arch, he looked inside, and then turned to Qi Ning and said, "Hou..... Master Hou, the prince is inside. ”

Qi Ning nodded slightly, through the arch, the garden is full of birds and flowers, flowers, irregular bluestone paved paths meander forward, leading to an octagonal pavilion not far away, the octagonal pavilion is a rather wide pond on the edge of the pond, a chair is placed on the edge of the pond, and a person is sitting on a chair, facing the pond.

Qi Ning walked slowly along the path, went around to the edge of the pond, stopped a few steps away from the chair, and looked at it from the back, it was Xiao Shaozong, the son of the king of Huainan.

Xiao Shaozong was holding a fishing rod in his hand, standing still, and was fishing by the pool.

Qi Ning put his hands behind his back and didn't speak, and after a while, Xiao Shaozong suddenly said, "Do you think I can fish from the pool?" ”

Qi Ning was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "As long as you have patience, you can always catch it." ”

"That's not right." Xiao Shaozong said with a smile: "There are no fish in the pond, even if I wait here for ten years, I can't catch a single fish." ”

Qi Ning was stunned, couldn't help but step forward, to the edge of the pool, but saw that the pool water was clear, almost visible to the bottom, under the rising sun, the lake surface rippled with slight ripples, sparkling waves made the lake surface have a trace of vividness, but in the pool water did not see a fish.

"Half a year ago, I had all the fish in the pond come up." Xiao Shaozong always stared at the fishing rod and said slowly: "I'm thinking, there are no fish in the pool, is there any fish on the bait?" For half a year, I would spend some time here every day, not to mention fishing, and I never even moved the fishing rod. ”

Qi Ning knew that Xiao Shaozong would never say this for no reason, it must be something in his words, but what it meant was not able to react for a while.

Xiao Shaozong finally turned his head and looked at Qi Ning, just in time to meet Qi Ning's gaze.

Under the sun, Qi Ning saw that Xiao Shaozong's face was as pale as paper, and his complexion was very bad, but his expression was calm, and he didn't seem to care about the palace being fired at all, and even had a shallow smile on his face.

"To have no desire is to be empty." Xiao Shaozong said: "It's empty, no matter how good the hook is, you can't catch it, Jinyihou, do you say this is the truth?" ”
