Ning Zhi thought for a moment, quickly stood up, and arched his hand and said:

"Your Majesty, there must be some misunderstanding about what King Jingbei said, and after he retreats from the dynasty, the old minister will definitely give King Jingbei a reasonable explanation."

King Gao Ran of Jingbei sneered disdainfully, "Duke Liguo, you must know that your son broke not only my Gao Ran's son's arm, but the face of the entire Dafeng royal family.

My son is also a member of the royal family, and your son has no royal law, isn't this challenging the emperor's authority? ”

Ning Zhi's old face twitched for a while, and he hurriedly looked at Gao Zhen, whose face was a little unsightly.

"Your Majesty, the dog categorically has no such intention!"

Ning He on the side also hurriedly excused his younger brother, "Your Majesty, my brother-in-law is not yet an adult and has a crown, and his actions are a little reckless and naïve, I hope that Your Majesty and King Jingbei will not be like a brother-in-law, for Ling Lang's injury, my Ning family is willing to compensate." ”

Gao Ran wanted to speak again, but was stopped by Gao Zhen, "I understand, even if two children fight, it's not a big deal, King Jingbei, this time I will give me a face, how about I send the best imperial doctor to treat the prince?" ”

Gao Zhen opened his mouth, how dare Gao Lan say anything, and bowed slightly, "The old minister thanked Your Majesty for the dog." ”

Gao Zhen yawned: "Okay, it's not too early today, I'm a little sleepy, let's retreat." ”

"Ministers send your majesty ......"

After retreating, Ning Zhicai breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the palace gate, Ning He helped Ning Zhi to walk to his carriage, and suddenly heard someone shouting.

"Liguo Gong, Liguo Gong stays ......"

The two looked back, it was an old man with gray hair, and at this moment the old man was being helped by his subordinates to come to the two of them, and when Ning He saw it, he hurriedly saluted, "Prime Minister Guan." ”

Ning Zhi smiled, "In-laws, is there something wrong?" ”

The gray-haired but energetic old man in front of him is the prime minister of the dynasty, Guan Zhongxian, who is also the father-in-law of Ning Feng, the second son of the Ning family, and the in-laws of the Ning family.

"The old man has heard about Chuan'er's affairs, although His Majesty didn't say much today, but he quietly erased all the exploits of the eldest son.

In-laws, don't blame the old man for talking too much, it's time to discipline Chuan'er well. Guan Zhongxian said worriedly.

In today's Dafeng court, if you want to say who Gao Zhen is most afraid of, Guan Zhongxian is definitely one of them, but at the same time, Guan Zhongxian is also the minister he relies on the most.

Ning Zhi smiled bitterly, "Let you see the smile, the young son is stubborn, and the old man will definitely impose discipline when he goes back." ”

Guan Zhongxian nodded and smiled slightly, "Liguo Gong, your family affairs, the old man won't say more, goodbye." ”

Ning He bowed his head and arched his hand, "Congratulations to Prime Minister Guan." ”

On the carriage back to the mansion, Ning Zhi rubbed his temples and told Ning He everything about Ning Xiaochuan's trouble.

After Ning He heard this, he smiled slightly, "Father, don't blame Chuan'er anymore after you go back, I believe that Chuan'er is not a stubborn person, and he is also doing this for our Ning family." ”

Ning Zhi didn't seem to understand what Ning He meant, and said sharply: "This rebel son, who has been fighting for his father for more than 20 years, is not as angry as that stinky boy in a year. ”

Ning He's expression was as usual: "Father, things have happened, don't think about it so much, now King Jingbei is completely offended, but don't be afraid, the background of our Ning family is here, don't be afraid of him King Jingbei." ”

"Hey, isn't your father afraid, but you're not afraid of fighting on the battlefield, but you're still afraid of this?

As a father, I'm just worried about Chuan'er's reputation, and Yin Du is the first to be a gentleman, hey, this is not a good thing. Ning Zhi shook his head and said.

Ning He looked at it very openly, and he said with a smile: "Sai Weng lost his horse, how can he know if it is a blessing." ”

When the two returned to the mansion, the meal had already been prepared at home, and Ning Zhi came to the lobby with a blue face.

When the eldest lady on the side saw Ning He, who she hadn't seen for a long time, she smiled shyly, held back the happiness in her heart, and just said a few words.

Everyone in Ning Mansion knows that the old lady has the best temper, while the eldest lady has a bad temper and is particularly short-tempered.

"Ning Xiaochuan, call him." Ning Zhi said angrily.

The housekeeper on the side smiled awkwardly and arched his hand, "The fifth young master is out." ”

"What, what day is today, he still went out, where did he go, get me back." Ning Zhi shouted.

"Fifth Young Master, Fifth Young Master went to the bank of the Fuhe River...... "The housekeeper said tremblingly.

"What?"

Ning Zhi was furious, how could he Ning Zhi not know where the bank of the Fu River was, and suddenly shouted angrily: "Rebel son, rebel son ......"

Ning He's expression next to him tightened slightly, and he looked at the lady next to him, "Chuan'er really went?" ”

The eldest lady Cheng Shuangshuang nodded slightly, "Yes, it has spread on the street, and Chuan'er also threw the girl's clothes on the river." ”

Ning He frowned, stepped forward and helped Ning Zhi sit down, "Father, don't be angry, I'll go find Chuan'er and bring him back." ”

"I have to break his leg when I bring it back, it's not good to learn anything, I have to go to that kind of place, it's really angry old man." Ning Zhi said angrily.

Looking at this large table of dishes, Ning He shook his head helplessly, changed into civilian clothes and was about to go out to find Ning Xiaochuan, but as soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Ning Xiaochuan grabbing a sugar gourd and eating it while walking, so he was not at ease.

"Big brother......" Ning Xiaochuan saw Ning He standing at the door at a glance, and directly threw the sugar gourd, rushed up and hugged Ning He.

"Big brother, big brother, you're finally back, I want to kill you."

Ning He smiled helplessly, "Stinky boy, you are getting bolder and bolder, and you have rushed to the bank of the Fuhe River." ”

Ning Xiaochuan smiled, pulled Ning He and walked to the house, "Big brother, don't worry, I'll wait for you to come back, I have something to tell you." ”

"Dad was very angry when he found out that you went to that kind of place, you are probably going to be whipped this time."

"That's all a trivial matter, you listen to me first, I found something very important, and now I'll wait for you and my second brother to come back and give me advice."

Ning Xiaochuan said as he pulled up Ning He and walked quickly to his yard.

……

Walking into the courtyard, Su Min was cleaning up the messy courtyard, and after seeing Ning Xiaochuan and Ning He, he quickly got up and saluted, "Young master." ”

Ning He looked at the new face and smiled, "When did you recruit the maid?" ”

"Just a few days ago, big brother, come in with me."

Walking into the room, Su Su hurriedly took out tea and fruits to entertain Ning He, and Ning Xiaochuan took out the gold-inlaid dagger and handed it to Ning He.

"Big brother, look."

Ning He took Ning Yan's dagger, and was soon attracted by the flowing cloud ornament, "This ornament, Shuozhou assassinated......"

Ning Xiaochuan nodded, "It's been ten years, this ornament has reappeared, this dagger was found by Wu Zizhi from the ruins of the Shan family's mansion, I went to the ruins that day to take a look, it was already full of devastation, such a precious dagger with gold inlay, it is impossible to appear from there." ”

Ning He's expression slowly became cold, "You mean to say that Wu Zizhi has a problem." ”

"I don't know, but I always feel that since the prince of Jingbei, things have happened a little too much recently......"

Ning Xiaochuan thought carefully about what had happened recently, and slowly pondered, "I feel that someone is testing me. ”

"That's why you went to the banks of the Fu River, but how do you know that the girl you see is not one of theirs?" Ning He said with heavy eyebrows.

"That girl is not like that, if she really came to test me, she would not have sent someone to monitor me, and she didn't do anything too much when I deliberately pretended to be asleep." Ning Xiaochuan shook his head and said.

Ning He patted Ning Xiaochuan, "If you really have you, you can endure it in that kind of place." ”

"If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, you don't say it, but I really can't help it." Ning Xiaochuan smiled bitterly, such a beautiful girl lying beside him couldn't help it even if she was a normal man.

"I know what you said, whether it is intentional or unintentional, since this cloud pattern has appeared, it means that there are ghosts in the Wu family, you should be careful of Wu Zizhi in the future." Ning He frowned and said.

"Big brother, don't worry, I know, but it's unlikely to attack the Wu family, so I'm going to start from the burning of the Shan Mansion, that is, the Taijia Army's filing." Ning Xiaochuan frowned and said.

"Taijiajun for the record, you are crazy, the Criminal Department has not found out after so long of investigation, not to mention that after so long, how can you investigate!" Ning He said sharply.

"Yan Guo has left hair, since the incident happened, there must be clues, and the criminal department can't find out, but it doesn't mean that I can't find out." The corners of Ning Xiaochuan's mouth curved and looked at Ning He.

Ning He frowned and nodded, "Okay, I'll help you hide this matter and don't let your father know, but you must pay attention to safety, and once you find something, you must notify me in time."

If I'm not there, I'll look for your second brother, and if your second brother isn't there, go to the Imperial Army Mansion, and he will help you. ”

"Thank you, big brother, you have to help me carry the matter of going to the Qinglou."

"I can't bear this, it's up to you to take the board."

That night, the screams were heard over Ningfu for a long time......

……

Daebong Imperial Palace.

It's late at night.

The early spring night was still a little cold, Gao Zhen was wearing a cotton robe, and there was a stove at hand, but from his expression, it still seemed that it was not warm enough.

"Your Majesty, the old minister Han Boxuan asks to see you." There was a sharp voice outside the door, with some Cangsang in the voice.

Gao Zhen waved his hand lightly, and the maidservant next to him opened the door after waving.

An old man walked in slowly, if you look closely, the old man has fair skin, white eyebrows, and his eyes are like eagle falcons, and after coming to Gao Zhen's study, he slowly bowed his hand, "Your Majesty, it has been arranged." ”

Gao Zhen waved his hand, and the maidservant beside him retreated, then put down the music in his hand and looked at Han Boxuan, "Let's talk about the Ning family first." ”

"Today is the day when Ning He returns to Beijing, but the fifth young master of the Ning family indulges in wine on the bank of the Fuhe River, and a few days ago, he also snatched a folk girl into the mansion...... Han Boxuan continued.

Gao Zhen interrupted Han Boxuan's words, "I know, continue to stare at the Ning family, Ning Zhi, Ning Zhi, what a blessing, the five sons and four of them are all talented, which makes me envious." ”

"Your Majesty, from this point of view, the five sons of the Ning family are just a drunken man, Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about it at all." Han Zhongxuan continued.

"Liguo Gong, I'm going to send you now......" Gao Zhen sneered in his heart, his expression was cold.
