Chapter 308: Do You Still Want My Position?
Ning Ke chuckled, slowly withdrew his hand, lowered his head and gently wiped it with a handkerchief, the corner of his lips smiled coldly, "Do you really want to protect me?"
Bai Cang was first stimulated by her action of wiping her hands, and then heard that words like thunder, "Ke'er, what do you mean?!"
"I am a king, you are a minister, you call me by my name three or four times, this is a big sin. Ning Ke was still laughing slowly, but she couldn't see any smile in her eyes, it was cool.
Seeing her smile, Bai Cang also realized that something was wrong, the smile on his face suddenly fell, and asked solemnly: "Then Weichen begged Her Majesty the Queen to explain, what did she mean by what she said just now? β
"Really?" Ning Ke casually threw the handkerchief to the ground and smiled coldly, "So, who controlled that wolf to eat people? Who else has this ability besides you? Who has this motive?"
"How could that be Weichen!" Bai Cang stood up abruptly and said excitedly: "Even if the wolf is *controlled, it may not be Weichen's doing, in this Yu clan, there may be someone who can do it!"
"Do you mean this?" Ning Ke took out a yellowed book from his wide sleeve and threw it on the table, "This is the register of the Yu clan's beast control ability, right? I'm sorry, I accidentally saw it in your residence, and I flipped through it at random, only to find that there were only two people who had this ability, and one of them was you." β
Bai Cang's eyes widened, and he picked up the book suddenly, his hands were trembling, and he gritted his teeth and asked after a while, "Your Majesty is here to find the book, right? You have been suspicious of the Yu clan for a long time! You came back this time not to distract, but to find this book!"
"Hmm. Ning Ke nodded without hesitation, "Yes, I found out from the book that you, as the patriarch, are not the highest level of the Imperial Beast, hehe......! Hehe, so whether it's you or him, as long as I condemn you, everything will fall into place. β
"Your Majesty is a crime that you want to add!" Bai Cang's face turned red and he roared angrily, "Weichen hasn't done it! Why did Your Majesty convict him because of this book?"
"Huh. Ning Ke stood up and smiled, "Soon you'll know." β
Bai Cang understood the conspiracy behind her smile, and his face suddenly changed, "So you want to...... No, you can't do that!" he said, turning around and whistling, ready to flee.
Ning Ke behind him smiled, "Don't scream, your bird is asleep." Go back with me!"
Bai Cang turned around suddenly, and the blue tendons on his forehead were bulging, "Your Majesty, you are so despicable...... but before he finished speaking, he only felt that the whole person was spinning, and his body was weakly like a noodle slowly sliding down.
"You....... Poisoned...... It's so ruthless......"
Ning Ke glanced at him condescendingly, with contempt in his eyes, "It's you who make you stunned." β
Bai Cang didn't hold on, and with unwillingness in his eyes, he slowly collapsed to the ground.
Ning Ke Huoran turned around and shouted coldly, "Someone!
"Huh?" Qingqiang heard the voice and ran out of the kitchen, glancing at Bai Cang, who was sleeping like a dead pig, she grinned and showed a sly expression, "Hey, hey, Queen, you see that I have a good dose of medicine, right?"
"Well, I didn't teach you in vain. Ning Ke smiled slightly and patted her shoulder with satisfaction.
Qingqiang smiled shyly, "That's also what the queen taught!" said as if she remembered something again, looked up at the dishes on the table, it was called a pain in the flesh, "The medicine is right, that is, the good things I saved for the ingots have been ruined!"
Ning Ke: "....."
Let's not boast about it!
That night, Ning Ke rushed back to the capital overnight, and as soon as she arrived in the palace, she immediately ordered Bai Cang to be taken into custody and announced that she would be beheaded after the autumn.
The next day, the whole capital spread the news, and suddenly there was such a turn, and the people who saw the excitement expressed higher enthusiasm, and it was not enough to discuss it in private, and they deliberately ran to the streets of the Yu clan to make a lot of noise and ridicule.
As a result, the Yu clan soon received the news, and when they heard that the patriarch had been arrested, where did they still have the heart to do business, they closed their doors one after another, and ran to the high priest's mansion in a swarm.
"Grandpa Bai! Elder Bai! The patriarch was arrested by the queen, saying that the wolf eating people was controlled by the patriarch, and he will be beheaded after the autumn!"
"Grandpa Bai, why don't you speak?
"That's right, it's all over the outside, the patriarch has been arrested, what can we do? We can't do without the patriarch!"
......
The clansmen chattered worriedly, but Grandpa Bai never moved, he lowered his head and pruned the branches and leaves of the Eighteen Bachelors, as if there was no one around.
Someone couldn't help it, and stepped forward to pull him, "Grandpa Bai, you are the closest person to the patriarch, you have to think of a way!"
"Hey......"
Grandpa Bai let out a long sigh and turned around slowly, "Then what do you think the old man can do?" The queen is the king of a country, she has been convicted, how can the old man fight with a cloth cloth?"
"No! The queen has always been so good to our Yu clan, she must have been deceived, as long as we go and tell her, she will definitely listen to us!"
Hearing this, Grandpa Bai shook his head self-deprecatingly, "It's useless, it's useless, Queen...... She's better than we thought!"
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, so what is going to happen?" The clansmen were anxious, and they shouted one by one for Grandpa Bai to think of a way!
Grandpa Bai didn't speak for a long time, cut off the remaining excess branches and leaves, and then slowly spoke, "You all go back! The old man has his own decision on this matter, so you don't have to worry too much." β
The clansmen were curious about what he wanted to do, but no matter how he asked, he was secretive and refused to answer, and the clansmen found it boring and left.
No one believed that an old man like Grandpa Bai could rescue the patriarch with his own strength, so everyone discussed it and decided to go to the gate of the palace together to appeal for pardon for the patriarch, and even wrote a joint letter to plead for mercy.
The status of the Yu clan in the capital is special, and the guards guarding the gate are not easy to drive away, for fear that the queen will blame, but this formation is too big, attracting the onlookers of the people in the capital, and I am afraid that something will go wrong, so I sent someone to tell him.
When Ning Ke heard the news, she was exercising Xiao Mumu raised her head, she laughed and didn't respond.
The guards did not dare to leave, and stood timidly waiting for her to speak.
"You go down first, don't you see the queen doing sports with the little prince?" Qingqiang waved her hand and sent the guards away, before she walked to Ning Ke's side and asked softly: "Queen, you really don't plan to take care of the affairs at the palace gate?"
Ning Ke shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Do you think I can solve it if I go out? It will only fuel their arrogance! β
"Hey, these people of the Yu clan are too, they don't understand the world at all!" Qingqiang sighed in agreement, "Queen, you are so good to them, the house, the shop, and the cure...... Everything has been arranged, why don't they know gratitude?
"Qingqiang, this is human nature. Ning Ke sighed, "If you are kind to them at the beginning, then they will take it for granted and will not be grateful." But when you don't do a good job, they will deny you all your efforts!"
Perhaps, she was also wrong from the beginning.
She can protect them, but she shouldn't give them so much that they feel that it all comes easily, that everything is taken for granted, and that they never think about things from her side!
From the last time they forced her to deal with Chu Junyue's guards, forcing her to break off with the descendants of the enemies of the exterminating clan, her pity for them was slowly disappearing.
She has seen through people's hearts and the cold of this world.
This time, she will never be coerced by them again! What she wants to do, it will be according to her status as a queen!
Qingqiang scratched her head and said in distress: "Why are people so bad!
"Okay, let's not talk about this, did I let you stew the soup?" Ning Ke handed Xiao Mumu to Mama Wang, got up and asked Qingqiang.
Qingqiang smiled and nodded, "It's stewed! If you want to drink it in the evening, I'll bring it!
"You don't have to worry about it. β
Ning Ke flicked her forehead and nodded her chin, "Help me change my clothes, I'm going out." β
"Are you still going out at this time?" Qingqiang looked worried, "In case someone from the Yu Clan sees ......"
"They can't see, so I'll go through the secret passage. β
Ning Ke smiled, changed into a slim suit, and left the palace silently.
As for where she was going, no one knew at all.
*
Night falls.
The dungeon was damp and cold, without a trace of popularity.
Bai Cang stood in front of the window, looking at the moonlight outside, he really didn't expect to come to this point.
He thought that the more Chu Jun left, he would have a chance.
Only did I find out in the end...... He is really too naΓ―ve, he has been isolated from the world for too long, and he doesn't understand that people's hearts are so complicated, and he has fallen for the trick......
I just hope that the other one will not be fooled and not be stupid.
"Hiss ......"
Suddenly, in the quiet air, there were two short sounds of snakes spitting letters, followed by a dense rustling sound.
Bai Cang frowned, turned around, and saw that the guards were already lying on the ground, and one after another poisonous snakes slipped out of the guards' trouser legs, and then slowly climbed to the door lock, but in an instant, the door lock was corroded and broken by the venom.
"Bang dang!"
The iron door opened.
Bai Cang's face changed greatly, and he rushed to the door, but he didn't go out, and roared: "Don't come! Go back!"
"My grandson is still suffering in the dungeon, how can my grandfather leave it alone?"
It's Grandpa Bai.
Bai Cang looked anxious, and shook his head violently, "No, you go quickly, this is a trap! The queen deliberately lured you out, you hurry up!"
"What?" Grandpa Bai frowned, "You weren't convicted......?"
"Yes, you go quickly! The queen has no actual evidence to prove that I did it, you hurry up!" Bai Cang pushed Grandpa Bai out violently, and at this time, a raging fire lit up outside, and the two guards who were lying on the ground just now slowly stood up.
The tall one smiled coldly, "Grandpa Bai, you really didn't disappoint me!"
