Chapter 557: Secret Visit
Mobile reading
King Ning saw Duan Fei again, knowing that Duan Fei wanted to tell what happened back then, if Duan Fei was asked to say this matter, it would mean that there would be no room for change between their master and apprentice, if he said it, King Ning's mansion might not have a good life.
As the head of the Ning Wangfu family, he must not watch the hundreds of lives of the Ning Wangfu suffer for the mistakes he made in the past. It seems that Duan Fei can only be asked to bear all this, and as for what he owes Duan Fei, he can only pay it back in the next life. Thinking of this, King Ning stood silent, listening to Duan Fei tell about the events of the year, King Ning was really remorseful in his heart.
"Liyu, in fact, I didn't pick you up by the river back then, but I was ordered to kidnap you, and then throw you into the river according to the agreement, but when I just put you on the bank, you suddenly cried, I couldn't bear to pick you up for a while, you actually smiled at me, and then, I changed my plan and raised you by my side, because I hurt you since you lost the care of your family since childhood, so I feel guilty, and I can give you all the best to satisfy. You must hate me. Duan Fei smiled bitterly.
Hearing this, Chu Liyu shook his head in disbelief with tears in his eyes, the master obviously said that he picked him up by the river, but now, the benefactor has become an enemy, this is simply a big joke. Since he was a child, he has been very envious of those children who have families, and he has complained in his heart why his family wants to abandon him.
Whenever he complained about his parents, Master would always comfort himself by saying that perhaps his parents had a last resort, or that he had been kidnapped and abandoned by gangsters.
When he found his family because of a jade pendant, he remembered his master's words, and thought it was a prophecy. However, what he never imagined was that the person who kidnapped him was the master.
"Why do you want to take me captive? You say you are on orders, but whose orders are you? Chu Liyu asked.
"I'm ......" Duan Fei wanted to speak and stopped, since he had promised that if the East Window incident happened, he would take it by himself, and he would never say who he was ordered by. The people in the rivers and lakes are the most trustworthy, Duan Fei kept his promise, and King Ning also understood that he would not betray himself.
Although the eye contact between the two people was very short, not all of them were blind, and Shangguan Tianyu was very close to the two of them, which had to make Shangguan Tianyu suspect that these two people were acquainted.
"Listening to Mr. Duan's accent, I really think it's from Honghe Town." Shangguan Tianyu said lightly.
"The prince is really good ears, and the grass people are the people of Honghe Town." Duan Fei said respectfully.
"In the early years, there was a major event in Honghe Town, which also alarmed the emperor, that is, the Duan family in Honghe Town was killed overnight, and later, it was King Ning who led his troops to exterminate the bandits. I don't know if Mr. Duan has heard of this? Shangguan Tianyu said with some meaning.
The bloody case of the Duan family did alarm the emperor that year, because the Duan family in Honghe Town had donated a lot of military food to the border soldiers, and the emperor gave a plaque to accumulate good homes. Naturally, the tragedy of the Duan family's destruction also caused a lot of sensation, how it happened, there is no way to find out now, and King Ning back then did not get the praise of the emperor even if he exterminated the bandits.
Hearing this, Duan Fei was slightly stunned, how could the things in his family alarm the emperor? Isn't it that the death of his family has anything to do with the courtiers? Otherwise, an ordinary person's family, officials at all levels can still hide the emperor's affairs?
Thinking of this, Duan Fei suddenly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, the Duan family in Honghe Town is the family of the grass people, and the grass people escaped a disaster because they went to the town to transport medicinal materials outside the town, but after so many years, the death of my family is only said to be done by bandits, but is it really just bandits?" Otherwise, why would it alarm the emperor? I also asked the emperor to find out about this matter and give justice to my Duan family's more than 30 lives. ”
Although Ye Wushuang said that because of King Ning's negligence, the bandits wandered to the vicinity of Honghe Town, and it was also his father's kindness to save a person who should not be saved, but now that he thinks about it, he feels that this matter is not so simple, if he doesn't figure this matter out, he will die, and he will have regrets.
Nangong Yihan saw Duan Fei like this, his eyebrows frowned, no matter what happened back then, it was a decision made by his father, if he said that he was looking into this matter now, wouldn't it be disrespectful to the emperor?
"Your Majesty, the concubines think that even if they want to investigate, they will have to do it secretly, and the result can only be said to Mr. Duan alone, as long as it is not publicized to the public, it is not disrespectful to the emperor." Chu Lixue said softly.
Hearing this, Jiang Guogong and a group of old ministers naturally did not agree with the emperor to do this, even if they visited quietly, they would be known, in case someone leaked the news, then where is the royal face? Jiang Guogong stopped this matter, naturally taking into account the royal face, but what is the purpose of some people's obstruction, then I don't know.
"Your Majesty, the old minister also thinks that this matter is better not to investigate, the matter of the year, the old minister personally handled it, there is no problem during this period, the old minister is naturally clear, the matter set by the emperor, if you overturn it, it will be a shame for the royal family." King Ning said in a deep voice.
Duan Fei saw that King Ning stopped investigating the affairs of the year, and he was even more determined in what Ye Wushuang said to himself, he reported the wrong kindness, I am afraid that it was really not that simple for his family to be killed back then.
If someone objects to the matter, some people agree, Chu Liyu is naturally on the same line as Chu Lixue, and he also wants to figure out the ins and outs of the whole thing, if the Duan family had not been destroyed, Duan Fei would not have become someone else's slave and kidnapped himself, of course, he would not have lived without a family for more than ten years.
Since he had a family, except for his different feelings about Chu Lixue, everyone else was indifferent, not that he didn't want to be close to his family, but he didn't know how to get close to his family.
"Your Majesty, although it has been a long time since the events of that year, Weichen is willing to try his best to investigate, if there is anything missing, the royal family should also try its best to correct it, if this matter is found out later, then it is not the face of a king that is damaged." Chu Liyu saluted respectfully.
Hearing Chu Liyu say this, Chu Lifeng also stood up and agreed, this younger brother he has never done anything for him, as the eldest brother, he should fight for the glory of his family and family.
Nangong Yihan sat on the dragon chair and looked at the civil and military courtiers in the hall, it was really a headache, although investigating the events of the year may make the royal family lose face, but it is better than knowing your mistakes and not changing them.
Thinking of this, Nangong Yihan said in a deep voice: "Chu Liyu, I will let you personally investigate this matter as you wish, you have been in the rivers and lakes, it doesn't matter what method you use to investigate me, but you can't use the identity of the government." ”
"Yes, Wechen obeys." Chu Liyu said with relief.
Nangong Yihan's words were very clear, that is, let him go to Murong Lingxiang and Ye Wushuang for help, these are all Jianghu organizations, as long as the government does not interfere, some things will be easy to do, not to mention, with such two major sects to help him visit, he should find out useful news soon.
Duan Fei's request for Nangong Yihan agreed, and Duan Fei had already admitted that he had obeyed Nangong Xiu's order to kidnap the queen, and Nangong Xiu and Duan Fei naturally wanted to be punished according to the law.
In order to take into account King Ning's mood, Chu Lixue did not have any major damage, Nangong Xiu's IQ was demoted to a commoner, and at the same time, he was locked up in the water prison of the Great Inner Heavenly Prison for life, and he could not get out unless he died. As for Duan Fei, he was also temporarily detained in the Great Inner Heavenly Prison, waiting for Chu Liyu to find out the matter before dealing with it.
When King Ning returned to the palace, he always felt that the things of the year would be turned over, although he did not instigate it, but after all, it was his negligence that caused the tragedy of the Duan family.
There is also the matter of Chu Liyu, although he always regrets what he did after many years, he never thought that Chu Liyu would be able to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.
"Father, Father, are you in the study?" Nangong Yue said softly outside the study.
"I'm here, you go back and rest early, Zixuan is pregnant, you have to take care of her more." King Ning said in a deep voice.
"Yes, father, son know, what the eldest brother does ......" Nangong stopped talking again, he never thought that the eldest brother, who had always been indisputable, would do something rebellious. There is also Banxia, he can even do it, although Banxia is just a subordinate, but when he was not good at doing it at the time, many times Banxia took the medicine prepared by Zixuan to compress the leg of the eldest brother. The eldest brother also personally promised to find a good family for Banxia, and he would never be wronged by Banxia.
Now, half a summer is lying in bed, and someone needs to take care of the daily diet, how to find a good family to marry? Don't say that she is just a subordinate, even if a young lady from a rich family encounters such a thing, she can only live in her mother's house for a lifetime.
Thinking of these, Nangong Yue felt a little sorry for Xu Zixuan, Banxia is Xu Zixuan's most powerful person, without Banxia's help, Xu Zixuan has to do many things herself, now that the month is older, it is even harder but no one to share.
In the early morning of the next day, Nangong Yihan was discussing with the minister in the court about the construction of the bridge in the south, when the guards of the prison suddenly came to report that Nangong Xiu had been poisoned and died in the prison last night.
Hearing this, Nangong Yihan was very shocked, this inner prison is in the palace, after sunset, the palace will be locked, outsiders will not be able to enter, and the queen has just been kidnapped, and the palace guards naturally dare not relax. In such a situation, someone can kill people in the palace, and it seems that you are not a simple person.
"How can you be free to enter the prison at will? Say, who went to prison last night? Jiang Guogong said angrily.
Jiang Tian is responsible for the affairs of this prison, and if something happens to the prison, Jiang Tian naturally can't get out of it, not to mention that the person who died is still Nangong Xiu.
"Last night, only Master Jiang came to inspect the prison last night." The Heavenly Prison guards the road.
What do you mean by that? Do you mean that Master Jiang will poison Nangong Xiu? ”
