Chapter 256

Finally, the guards who came in outside opened the door of the secret passage, and Ning Zeli had already lost his breath.

The man didn't want to make him suffer, so he just stuck it in the heart. Almost immediately, he lost his breath.

Gongsun Kang and Feng Luping were helped out, and they couldn't stop crying.

The two of them slipped and fell to the ground almost at the same time, their heads resting on Ning Zeli's legs, crying hoarsely.

The remaining seven or eight guards were all drugged, and they were barely standing at this time.

The group of pirates had retreated, and the courtyard was quiet and eerie, except for the smell of blood.

Even the guards didn't have the strength to go back and report the news.

In the end, it was Gongsun Kang who struggled to get up and go to someone to report the news.

At the same time, in the courtyard of the Peng family, not far from here, Peng Xiao and the four maids were taken away by pirates, and their lives and deaths were unknown.

The Peng family's courtyard suffered heavy losses, at least losing the second girl of the Peng family is an unbearable thing.

It's just that at this time, the Ning family didn't care about this, and when Uncle Zhong brought people to the other courtyard, the guards of the Chinese medicine were already unconscious.

Hurriedly asked someone to pull it away, Ning Zeli's body had been moved back to the feet before Feng Luping and the guards were unconscious, and it was put away. The short knife had also been pulled out and placed in a tray.

Ning Zeli's body looked quite peaceful, but it had lost too much blood and was very pale.

Uncle Zhong knelt down when he saw it, and only shouted: "Grandpa......"

And then the old tears flowed.

He has followed Ning Zeli since he was five years old, Ning Zeli is seventy-six years old, and Uncle Zhong is also seventy-four years old this year.

The two of them have been together all their lives, although Uncle Zhong was just a small servant at the beginning, but gradually became Ning Zeli's most trusted person, and later until today.

Everything about Ning Zeli, Uncle Zhong knows.

He never thought that his grandfather would live vigorously all his life, and in the end it would be such a result.

"Uncle Zhong, don't cry, ...... first Tell the news. Gongsun Kang was dumbfounded: "There is also a need to find out, why did the guards get drugged, our family has never had such a thing!" ”

"Yes, yes, what kind of dog thing uses such unpopular means! Lao Tzu widowed them! Uncle Zhong got up suddenly: "Go and report the news first, don't alarm Your Majesty, and take the grandfather back to the house first." Go and inform Lord Zhao and Lord Liang that something like this happened in Linjing, and they are responsible. ”

Since they are pirates, they don't have to think about arresting people, but although Gongsun Kang and Feng Luping were hiding in the shadows, they also heard about the portrait.

Moreover, the pirates didn't take anything from the Ning family's courtyard, they brought the portrait just to kill people.

It's obvious that someone wants Grandpa's life.

"The third prince is coming back soon, don't alarm Weibei first, there is a war, but you have to inform the ninth girl quickly. Grandpa has a last word for the nine girls. "Feng Luping is very calm at this time. When he cleaned up his master alone, he thought very clearly.

"No matter who poisoned him, murdering my grandfather at this time is just to make chaos in my Ning family. It was only after sending away the eldest lord that our little boy took Weibei in his hands, it must be unstable, and someone even colluded with pirates to kill the grandfather. This mind is not not ruthless! ”

"Yes, let's inform the ninth girl first." Gongsun Kang touched his tears again: "The third master and the fourth master have to say a word, right?" ”

"Say, I thought about it...... It's better to take my grandfather back openly. Uncle Zhong suddenly said: "The enemy is in the shadows. But the old man thought that the royal family would not go crazy yet. ”

is crazy, it is to force the Ning family to rebel: "At this time, there can be no misunderstanding. ”

The two staff members nodded, after all, Uncle Zhong was the right-hand man of the grandfather, and he couldn't help but listen to his words.

In the end, it was Ning Zeli's high-profile 'please' to go back to the Luguo Mansion.

When it was dawn in the capital, they all saw this scene.

A coffin was escorted back to the Luguo Mansion by the Ning family from the Ning family's courtyard.

Looking at the scale, it is really a national level.

For the Ning family, the grandfather of the country, everyone in the capital knows about it. He is a powerful person in his own right, the prince of the country, Ning Xiang, and concurrently serves as the secretary of the ministry, the prince and the prince.

What's more, he also has four sons, all of whom are generals who defend their families and the country. Only recently, the eldest son, General Ning, died in battle. was also canonized as the protector of the country, just talking about the title, which is higher than his father.

There is also a daughter who is the crown princess, and a granddaughter who is married to the second prince.

Originally, the most nonexistent person in the Ning family should be Ning Zhan, who died in battle early, but Ning Zhan's daughter is the Ning Jiu girl who married the second prince.

Therefore, how can such a Ning family and such a Lu Guogong not be known?

At this time, he died?

It's unbelievable.

The news reached Qingfeng Guan, and Emperor Jianwen's first feeling was that he really boiled Lu Guogong to death?

But then he confronted the messenger: "Nonsense! I saw Ning Xiang a few days ago, why is it gone? ”

The man shouted: "The minister doesn't dare to talk nonsense, it's really gone." It is said that he was killed in the courtyard last night, and it is a murder...... Now that the coffin has been invited back to the Luguo Mansion, the mansion is covered with white, and it is already ...... You can't fake it. ”

"Murder?" Pei Jue was taken aback: "Send someone to investigate!" ”

The man was busy responding, and soon called Zhao Rui and Liang Chuhan in.

When the two people received the order, they were both shocked and hurriedly sent someone to investigate.

Within their jurisdiction, a super-first-grade member died, not to mention, this official is not an ordinary person.

Liang Chuhan had worry on his face and sent someone from Xuanyi Wei to investigate.

The Ning family, after building the mourning hall and changing Ning Zeli's longevity clothes, it was already evening.

The loss of a country's grandfather can never be a simple matter. Although there is no one else in the Ning family now, Uncle Zhong is the face of the Luguo Mansion. He took all the responsibility and made this funeral in the Luguo Mansion orderly.

The crown prince Pei Jue also sent someone as soon as possible, whether it was because this was his father-in-law, or because it was to stabilize the hearts of several General Ning, he wanted someone to help him as soon as possible.

When the crown princess got the news, she didn't care that Her Majesty was still in Qingfengguan, so she rushed to Ning's house from Qingfengguan.

When she arrived at the door, she looked at the gate with white flags, but she did not dare to enter.

It's even more timid to be close to home, since she called Linjing, she has never entered this door.

I can't get in my dreams.

It's all her father's refusal to forgive, her mother's disappointed face when she looks at her, and the helplessness of her brothers who fought bloodily and were scolded for being traitors.

It's the appearance of the second brother dying......

Today, she could go in, but she didn't dare to. Daddy is gone.

Eventually, she was invited in.

Kneeling in the mourning hall, she couldn't cry for a while. Just stared blankly at the spiritual position, and the coffin behind the spiritual position.
