Chapter 044: The Thirteen Princes Who Were Scared to Pee
Burning Moon City, the Nine Marquis Mansion.
The owner of this mansion, Ning Hai, the Ninth Marquis, was setting up a banquet and personally entertaining a guest who came from afar.
"This is the spiritual wine brewed by His Majesty, please!"
The one who persuaded him to drink was a handsome man, about thirty years old, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a faint beard under his chin, and a purple-red dragon robe.
This person is none other than Ning Hai, the Ninth Marquis.
Opposite him, sat a young man in sackcloth, with the same red hair as Ning Hai, but his clothes were shabby and his appearance was very ordinary.
At first glance, it looks like a servant.
Surprisingly.
In front of this young man in Mai, the Ninth Marquis, who has always been high, lowered his figure and took the initiative to pour wine for him, and there was a trace of humility in his words.
Obviously, this seemingly ordinary young man is not ordinary at all.
In the Red Flame Country, there is such a saying: worship the fire Ning family, Yongzhen Chilin, the red flame will not stop, and the fire will not be extinguished.
Back then, the founding king of the Red Flame Country, on a map, the entire Chilin Continent became the territory of the Bai Huo Ning family.
The reason why the Ning family is treated so favorably by the royal family is because the Ning family and the royal family are originally a family, and they both have a powerful 'Red Flame Blood' flowing in their bodies.
It was only later that the ancestors of the Ning family led some people to break away from the royal family and form their own family.
This clan is named 'Worship Fire', which means to submit and be loyal to the royal family.
This plainly dressed and somewhat wooden-looking young man is from the Red Flame Royal Family, the youngest son of the current monarch, ranked thirteenth in the royal family, named Ning Yu.
It is said that the king was very displeased with his young son, even to the point of disgust.
But, after all, this is just some rumors.
Even if it is true, the dignified thirteen princes, how noble their status is, how dare people outside the royal family despise and neglect.
As soon as Ning Hai heard that the Thirteen Princes appeared in Burning Moon City, he immediately ran to welcome him to his mansion and gave him a warm welcome.
"Your Highness, the last time I saw you was three years ago. ”
After Ning Hai drank a drink, he said to Ning Yu, the thirteenth prince: "Your Highness left the national capital this time and came to Burning Moon City, why don't you send someone to say hello, and your subordinates should make some preparations." ”
"Don't blame my cousin, I went out alone this time, and I just happened to be passing by here, so I didn't intend to disturb my cousin. ”
Ning Yu put down his wine glass, and his tone was unusually gentle.
As the thirteenth prince, he is a real nobleman, but he has no slightest, and even calls Ning Hai his cousin.
"Your Highness. ”
Hearing this, Ning Hai's face changed greatly, "You are the prince, Ning Hai is a subordinate, don't mess with your dignity." ”
Although the Ning family and the royal family are of the same origin, their status is very different.
To put it mildly, the Ning family is a watchdog raised by the royal family, and they must rely on royal charity to maintain the superficial scenery.
If the Baihuo Ning family wants to continue to be prosperous, they must hug the royal thighs, abide by dignity and humility, and must not exceed the rules.
Ning Hai was taught this way from childhood to adulthood.
"That's it. ”
Ning Yu looked at Ning Hai with a panicked face and sighed: "I'll continue to call you Ning Hai." ”
"Thank you Your Highness for your understanding. ”
Ning Hai laughed, and said secretly in his heart: I haven't seen him for a few years, why is this highness getting more and more weird.
Thinking of this, he glanced at the wine glass that the thirteenth prince put down, it was still a full glass, and there was not a drop of wine in it.
Why, those rumors are true.
It is rumored that this thirteen princes are an outlier in the royal family, and his style of acting is extremely eccentric, and he doesn't look like a prince at all.
He doesn't wear fancy clothes, he doesn't get meaty, he doesn't drink fine wine, and he doesn't get close to women......
Like the ascetics of the Mahayana Buddha Kingdom and the monks of the Zhenwu Holy Hall, he strictly abides by the precepts and lives a pariahish life.
"Ning Hai, thank you for your hospitality. ”
Just when Ning Hai was pondering for a while, the thirteenth prince suddenly stood up and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Ning Hai also hurriedly stood up and said, "Your Highness has just arrived at His Majesty's mansion, and he hasn't finished a meal yet, so why do you have to leave, could it be that there is something urgent." ”
"Not really. ”
Ning Yu smiled, and suddenly reached out and patted Ning Hai's shoulder, "The national capital is away from Huocheng, and it has been a little unpeaceful recently, so you'd better stay away." ”
"Ah......h
After Ning Hai was stunned for a moment, he seemed to think of something, and he felt a thrill all over his body, "Thank you Your Highness for reminding me, Your Majesty must keep it in mind." ”
"That's fine. ”
Ning Yu nodded, and was about to say another few words when a figure suddenly rushed in.
"Master Hou, there is an urgent report!"
The second steward of the Hou Ye Mansion rushed to Ning Hai, knelt on the ground, and said urgently: "Commander Zhu also has a team of brothers of the Red Wolf Guard, who were killed!"
"What!"
Ning Hai frowned, and snorted coldly: "What the hell is going on!"
Who doesn't know that Zhu Dalong, the leader of the Red Wolf Guard, is one of his dogs.
Killing a dog depends on the owner.
Without his knowledge, killing Zhu Dalong was a blatant slap in the face.
"An hour ago, Commander Zhu took some of the brothers of the Red Wolf Guard out of the city, but they were killed at the dock, and now the news has spread all over the city......"
The second steward said as he lay on the ground.
"Who did it?"
Ning Hai reined in his anger and asked calmly.
In front of the Thirteen Princes, you can't mess up your sense of proportion and lose the face of the Huo Ning family.
"It's said to be an outsider. The second steward replied.
"Outsiders!"
A trace of murderous aura flashed in Ning Hai's eyes, an outsider dared to run to his territory to spread wild, he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead.
"You make a trip for Ben Hou and bring all the elites of the Red Wolf Guard and the Fire Raven Guard. ”
Ning Hai took out a token and threw it to the second steward.
"Yes!"
The second steward held the token and left in a hurry,
"Your Highness, a little private matter, let you see the smile......"
Ning Hai turned his head to look at the Thirteen Princes, but he was shocked to find that the Thirteen Princes were staring at him, his body trembling slightly, and there was a terrifying golden light in his eyes.
"Your Highness?"
Ning Hai was taken aback, if something happened to the Thirteen Princes in his mansion, he wouldn't be able to eat and walk around.
"Don't go!"
The Thirteenth Prince suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Ning Hai's arm.
"Where not to go?"
Ning Hai was pinched in pain, and his face was full of bewilderment.
"Don't go for revenge. ”
The golden light in the eyes of the thirteen princes gradually dissipated, and he said word by word: "If you go, the entire Baihuo Ning family will be buried for you!"
He could see, and only he could see, that above Ning Hai's head, there was a red, blackened line of blood, which spread out all the way and connected to an endless sea of red blood......
He had never seen such a terrible sight.
What kind of earth-shattering and terrifying existence is that outsider who brought the bloody disaster to Ninghai!
The Thirteenth Prince took a breath, and suddenly had a feeling of being scared to pee.
