Chapter 233: You're Coming to Rob People Too?
The happy time of Ji Que and Ning Hongyu ended quickly.
They didn't even have time to do the fake show, and Ji Que was placed under house arrest.
Before they had dinner together, the four fellows who had practiced qigong invited him to another mansion.
This time it's a bun of rice, but this rice is naturally not Ning Hongyu's pearl powder, bird's nest and the like, but a very simple three dishes and one soup.
The other party was polite to him, and this small courtyard was even more luxurious than his residence in Tianren City.
But this is a real house arrest, Ji Que doesn't like this way, so he wants to go out several times for several reasons.
For example, if you want to go out for a walk, you want to find an open place to......
On two occasions the two sides almost made a move.
As a result, Ji Que should eat and drink, find some trouble from time to time, look very angry, and enjoy it, but it made the four old guys feel a lot of pressure.
This is all due to the attitude of the head of the family, Ning Chenghai.
He also seems to have fallen into a tangled situation, you said that he didn't say anything bad to Ji Que, he gave him food and drink, and the place where he lived was still a courtyard that was usually used to receive distinguished guests, but if you said that he was good, it was naturally not possible.
Not to mention letting his son challenge Ji Que along the way, this is very rude just to be under house arrest.
In the palace hall, the wrinkles on Ning Chenghai's forehead were a little deeper.
This matter is really difficult to handle, first of all, he has to bear the pressure from the Tianliang Zhao family.
The two families who were originally married, the woman was pregnant before marriage, and now the wild man swaggered to the house, and several young masters on the Zhao family's side reacted quite fiercely.
Whoever is guilty of this matter is angry, this matter is not handled well, and the two families cannot get married, and they are afraid of resentment.
And now the Ning family is asking for the Zhao family, and they don't want to see these conflicts.
It's not that he didn't think about killing Ji Que directly, but he thought that the other party was the father of the child in his belly, if he really did this, with Ning Hongyu's character, I'm afraid this daughter would not be able to do it.
Halfway through, Ji Que passed all the way, and unconsciously, he still had the meaning of cherishing talents.
But it was this hesitation that made the Ning family's situation even more embarrassing.
Speaking of which, Ji Que doesn't have any background, and it's really not enough to see compared to the Zhao family.
Thinking of this, the "Chuan" character on Ning Chenghai's forehead couldn't help but become more profound.
The head of the Qingqi Division, Li Wang was wearing a slightly tight-fitting black robe, admiring the man in the painting.
She looked very closely, as if she didn't want to let go of the details of the man in the painting.
Finally, she raised her head, looked at her subordinates, and said, "Where is Ji Que now?" ”
The woman in black replied respectfully, "In the Ning Mansion, the informant's intelligence is that he should be under house arrest. ”
Liwang Lizi opened his beautiful big eyes and said, "My pillar of the Dasheng Dynasty is under house arrest like this? ”
The woman in black didn't know what to answer for a moment.
Since the prince saw the portrait of the young man, the attitude of the whole person has changed.
Before, she was a little bit of watching the fire from the other side, but now she seems to want to jump into the fire herself.
"Send a message to the Ning Mansion that this king wants to see Ji Que." Lizi pondered for a moment and spoke.
The black-clothed subordinate quickly retreated, and said secretly as he retreated: "This is really jumping into the fire." ”
In the hall, Lizi picked up the scroll again and said seriously: "The more you look at this face, the more it looks like a pillar of Dasheng." ”
......
At noon, Ning Chenghai heard the request of the king to see Ji Que, and thought: "Tell the prince that Ji Que is tired from the journey and is in poor health, and he will be allowed to come to the door as soon as possible after recovery." ”
After leaving the people from the palace, the second young master of the Ning family couldn't help but be surprised: "When did Ji Que get in touch with the king of Li, father, is it really good to reject the prince like this?" ”
Not to mention the noble status of the king, the Qingqi Division that supervises the world under his command is enough to attract attention.
Ning Chenghai said: "Who do you think released the news of your sister's pregnancy?" ”
"Huh?"
"Hongyu and Liwang have been friends since childhood, and she is indispensable for this matter. Since she didn't officially say that she wanted to see Ji Que, let her let it go first. Ning Chenghai poured himself a cup of tea and said.
The second young master of the Ning family felt justified and couldn't help but nodded.
Then he couldn't help but say: "Father, how can the Zhao family explain it, the fourth and fifth elders of the Zhao family have been calling." ”
Ning Chenghai flicked his sleeves and said, "That old ghost didn't speak, let the little ghost scream a few more times if he likes to scream, just let them set fire." ”
The brothers of the Tianliang Zhao family have a very good relationship, and the second brother, who was originally going to marry the proud daughter of the sky, encountered this kind of thing inexplicably, and several of them also followed the green.
Because several people know that the second brother is interesting to Ning Hongyu, otherwise, with his character, he would not agree to the marriage arranged by the family so easily.
This was supposed to be a great thing, but suddenly a male subordinate came out and made the future sister-in-law's belly bigger, which ......
The head of the family, Ning Chenghai, spoke very lightly and behaved very quietly, but the second young master of the Ning family, who was his second son, could clearly feel the pressure of his father.
As a result, at this time, the housekeeper hurriedly came to report-"Master, Venerable King of the Demon Suppression Tower asks to see you." ”。
Ning Chenghai involuntarily stood up and said, "Venerable Wang? ”
"Yes." The old butler replied.
The atmosphere quickly became subtle.
There are seven demon subduing venerables in the Demon Suppression Building, and the dragon has always been quite mysterious, and there is even gossip that there are actually only five Venerables left in the building, and the other two have already ascended to the immortals.
The Demon Suppression Venerable has always been low-key, and the only one who is not too low-key, it can be said that it is this Venerable Wang on the table of the Demon Suppression Tower.
So in the eyes of ordinary people, Venerable Wang can be said to be the person in charge of the Demon Suppression Building, representing the will of the Demon Suppression Building.
The relationship between the Ning family and the Demon Suppression Building is average, but her daughter Ning Hongyu has a little relationship with the Demon Suppression Building because of the relationship between the Demon Suppression and the Demon Suppression Building.
But Ning Chenghai knew that another Venerable Chen, who was familiar with his daughter, didn't think that his daughter had such a big face and could move Venerable Wang to settle things.
Venerable Wang came to the door in person, which seemed to give enough face, Ning Chenghai naturally did not dare to slack off, so he had to greet him in person.
Venerable Wang looked short and fat, dressed in a gold-threaded robe, and looked less like a monk on the clouds than a businessman.
After seeing Ning Chenghai, he couldn't help but show a kind smile.
Ning Chenghai hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Venerable Wang's visit to the humble house is really brilliant. ”
Venerable Wang smiled and said: "Brother Ning is too modest, if you are all a humble house, then the three melons and two dates in my Demon Suppression Building are not thatched houses." ”
Soon, Ning Chenghai and this Venerable Wang drank tea in the hall.
Ning Chenghai couldn't help but ask: "Venerable has always been a dragon to see the head but not the end, and the junior brother has not had the opportunity to see it several times when he wants to visit, I don't know if he has any advice for this visit?" ”
Venerable Wang hurriedly replied: "I don't dare to advise, I really don't dare to take it." It is well known that Ling Yuan and I are close to the Demon Slaying Building, and my old fellow Chen Laoshi almost treats her as an apprentice. ”
Ning Chenghai hurriedly ordered: "Don't let people call Hongyu over yet." ”
Venerable Wang hurriedly said: "This is not in a hurry, in fact, the old man came this time, mainly for the kid named Ji Que." ”
Ning Chenghai's face turned gloomy and said, "Ji Que? ”
"To tell you the truth, Ji Que is the youngest earth-level demon slayer in my Demon Slaying Building, and the Heavenly Rank is a sure thing. Several of us old guys are old, and some of them are training him as a successor.
I heard that he offended his brother and the Tianliang Zhao family because of his youth and absurdity, so the old man came to be this cheeky.
Anyway, someone in the building said that he had been looking for most of his life, and he had found such a pleasing heir, and if he missed it, it would be gone. ”
Venerable Wang spoke in a relaxed tone, just like chatting with you, but everyone knew the weight of his words.
The meaning he wants to express is obvious, the heirs of the Demon Slaying Venerable, the future successors of the Demon Slaying Building, who is going to go too far, and the old guys are not vegetarians.
Venerable Wang left after drinking tea, leaving Ning Chenghai, the head of the Ning family, messy there.
Among the top ten family sects in the south, official and semi-official organizations such as the Qingqi Division and the Demon Suppression Building have always been excluded, but the people in the cultivation world are clear about the weight of the Qingqi Division and the Demon Suppression Building.
That's definitely not a family of the so-called ten major sects.
In just one day, the leaders of the Qingqi Division and the Demon Suppression Building expressed their attitudes, and this one from the Demon Suppression Building came to the door in person, saying that Ji Que was the future successor of the Demon Suppression Building.
In this way, Ji Que is not a duckweed without any roots.
Just the statement that the future Venerable of the Demon Slaying Tower is enough to bluff people.
At this time, Venerable Wang was standing on a street in the inner city, and the subordinates next to him were puzzled: "Venerable, you don't have a very good relationship with Venerable Chen, why do you want to help him like this in this matter." ”
Before Ji Que came to the capital, Chen Laoshi sent someone to send a letter, asking Venerable Wang, who was in the capital, to help take care of it.
And it is clear that His Holiness Wang is very thorough.
He looked at his subordinates who had been following him for many years, and muttered, "I'm telling the truth, a few of us old guys are old, and some of our minds are not in the building. In this building, as far as Old Man Chen and I are concerned, what he said is very reasonable, and it touched me. ”
"I want to hear about it." The loyal subordinate said respectfully.
"Talent! What is most lacking in my damn building is talent! Now these young Tianjiao, if they are not from the sect family, or they will be sucked clean by the sect family.
Put it outside, let those Tianjiao choose for themselves, and they won't choose the Demon Tower. ”
"Only Ji Que and Ning Hongyu are ......"
"Don't catch these two fish yet? Thinking of the young master that kid called the Ning family along the way, Lao Tzu felt comfortable, very comfortable. ”
"Let's go, go listen to the music today!"
As he spoke, the Venerable Wang, who looked like a businessman, walked towards Goolan Street......
Here he was listening to the music in the hook column, but Ning Chenghai over there was in a dilemma.
If Venerable Wang is dressed like a businessman, then Ning Chenghai, a businessman, is not dressed like a businessman at all.
This huge Ning Mansion is not splendid, but walks elegantly.
I have to say that sometimes there is too much silver, but you will not be happy, and even want to separate from it.
Ever since Venerable Wang left, the head of the Ning family had become even more unhappy.
He had hesitated before, but the balance in his heart was biased in favor of the Zhao family.
After all, no matter how talented Ji Que is, after all, he is a duckweed without roots, of course, how the Zhao family is happy and how to deal with him is a good strategy.
But the words of Venerable Wang had to make him re-examine Ji Quelai.
Whether it was the Zhao family or the Demon Suppression Building, the Ning family didn't want to offend.
Thinking of this, Ning Chenghai became angry, this situation is developing, how can he become angry at both ends?
It's all to blame for the bird who can't manage himself!
In the evening of the same day, the head of the family, Ning Chenghai, was not finished worrying, and someone came to visit again.
He and the second child looked confused.
The second young master was puzzled: "What are you doing here?" ”
The old butler replied, "I don't know, I just came to ask to see you, the master of the house." ”
Ning Chenghai didn't want to see it, because he had had enough worries recently, but thinking of the high mountain in the military headquarters, he could only sigh and say, "Let Ling Xian's nephew come in." ”
Deler, the ones who came were the ones he didn't want to mess with.
The Ning family has a very high status in this capital, otherwise the Tianliang Zhao family would not choose to marry the Ning family, but because he is a businessman, Ning Chenghai really doesn't want to offend too many people.
At this time, Xiao Qianhu was dressed in a purple robe, and people came over with a few loads of gifts.
Seeing this, Ning Chenghai said; "What does Ling Xian mean by this?"
Xiao Qianhu arched his hand and said: "Uncle, this is sent by my father on my behalf, he is not in the capital now, it is a little inconvenient." ”
Ling Qianhu gave gifts to people, which is a rare thing.
Ning Chenghai hurriedly sent someone to accept it, and couldn't help but say: "The virtuous nephew came this time, it won't be just a gift, right?" ”
Xiao Qianhu said: "That's natural, I'm here to find Ji Que, I heard that he was locked up by your uncle." ”
Ning Chenghai replied: "Ji Que is resting in the house, what are you looking for him?" ”
Xiao Qianhu said: "I came to pick him up and go to the General's Mansion." My sister is interested in him, and my father likes him a lot, since he has offended you, uncle, it is better to let him come to the General's Mansion to marry my sister.
This hot potato, my Ling family took it. ”
Ning Chenghai was surprised: "Your Ling family is going to recruit him as a son-in-law?" ”
Xiao Qianhu arched his hand and said: "That's natural, I came late, and my sister still complains about me." ”
Ning Chenghai suddenly became cautious and asked, "Is this what you and Ling Mei mean, or is it your father's?" ”
】
Xiao Qianhu smiled and said: "Uncle, you know that my father is the most picky, that is, the Queen Mother's birthday, he has never sent anything decent, these loads of things, he doesn't know how to heartache for a long time." ”
Hearing this, the Ning family was silent.
First the king of the Qingqi Division, then the Venerable of the Demon Suppression Tower, and now there is another god-killing thousand households, and Ji Que's hot potato suddenly became fragrant?
No, this is fragrant, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is golden!
At this time, Ning Chenghai glanced at the second child in the family.
The second child suddenly understood and said, "Young Master Ling, I can't afford this big gift. ”
Xiao Qianhu was surprised: "What do you mean?" ”
Ji Que and the sister are in love, and the two have already had flesh and blood. Your Ling family wants him to be a son-in-law, how can my Ning family agree. How can there be such a good thing in this world? ”
As he spoke, the second son issued an order to expel the guest.
Xiao Qianhu left with an unwilling face, and when he was sent out, he even shouted Ji Que's name and said things like becoming a son-in-law.
After this little thousand households left, the second child of the Ning family and Ning Chenghai both let out a breath, as if they were afraid that Ji Que would be robbed by this person.
At this time, the second child reacted and said, "Dad, you don't really want to recruit Ji Que as a son-in-law, right?" ”
Ning Chenghai frowned and thought, "I'm afraid it's not that easy. ”
Only this time, there was not much firmness in his tone.
Ji Que is satisfied with this meal, after all, there is still meat in it.
However, he was very unhappy with this house arrest behavior that did not allow him to see the female peak
