Volume 1 The Young Man in White Clothes Out of the Yin Capital Chapter 14 Clearing the Clouds and Seeing the Mist
Wu Zizhi, who was a little dazed, leaned back in the chair weakly, endured severe pain, and looked at Ning Xiaochuan with a gaze full of fear.
"Say it." Ning Xiaochuan sat quietly in front of Wu Zizhi, and his gaze at Wu Zizhi was full of banter.
"Three years ago, an old man came to our house, and after talking with my father for three days and three nights, my father invited me as a guest and asked him to take me as an apprentice.
I am close to you, which is what my master meant, and in order to achieve my goal, I pretend to be the same as you. ”
Wu Zizhi said slowly, "At first, I didn't know why this was, but I only knew that since it was Master's will, I could only do it." ”
"So you planned our chance encounter three years ago?" Ning Xiaochuan frowned and said.
Wu Zizhi nodded undeniably, "It was planned by my master, and not long after, the Taijia Army filed for the record."
My father was promoted all the way, from a small outsider to a court scholar, I was very surprised at that time, thinking that it was our Wu family to run.
Until that day, Master handed me a gold-inlaid dagger and asked me to test you to see if you were really a gentleman. ”
"Then you found Gao Xiao, the prince of Jingbei, and there was that scene in the downtown area of Dongshi?" Ning Xiaochuan asked rhetorically.
Wu Zizhi shook his head after hearing this: "It's not really, I didn't know the prince of Jingbei before that, and I learned that the prince of Jingbei came to Yindu and played on the street."
So I calculated it, sent someone to inquire about its route and time, and tried to find a way for you to meet by chance, and there was that banquet......"
"That's right." Ning Xiaochuan looked at Wu Zishi, no wonder Wu Zizhi wanted to treat him in Zhenbaozhai that day, so it was.
But I have to say that this Wu Zizhi is still very good, borrowing a knife to kill people, and borrowing the hand of the prince of Jingbei to test himself, so that he can achieve his goal without bearing the anger of the Ning family.
"So that dagger was not found from the ruins of the Shan family at all, you tell me, and then bumped into me outside the ruins of the Shan family the next day, it was all a temptation?" Ning Xiaochuan said in a deep voice.
Wu Zizhi nodded silently, "Yes, there is also the bank of the Fuhe River, and I also told Zhu Youjun, hinting that he would go to you, and then send someone to monitor outside the window." ”
Hearing this, Ning Xiaochuan got up again and grabbed Wu Zizhi's collar, "Say, what is your purpose in trying your best to test me?" ”
Wu Zizhi shook his head in fright: "Ning Wushao, don't, don't, I don't know, I just acted according to Master's instructions, I also asked Master, Master didn't say a word, just told me that the time is right and I will know." ”
"Who is your master?"
Ning Xiaochuan had a hunch that Wu Zishi's master was definitely not simple.
"I don't know where the master is from, my father won't let me ask, and the master won't say, I only know that the master's name is Lei Kangshan, and he is a half-step spirit master."
"Half-step spirit......" Nie Hongyi frowned, it seems that the master of the Wu Mansion who killed Lu Yunting was Wu Zishi's master, Lei Kangshan.
Seeing Wu Zizhi trembling with fright, Ning Xiaochuan didn't ask any more questions, and he couldn't ask anything after he felt it, "Go on, tell me what you know." ”
"Three days ago, I was really curious about Master's intention to do this, so I went to ask my father, and under my soft grinding and hard soaking, my father told the truth about the destruction of the single family at that time...... "Wu Zizhi bowed his head and said.
This time, not only Ning Xiaochuan, but even Nie Hongyi and Kong Zhenxuan, who was looking at the wind at the door, couldn't help but look nervous, the Taijiajun record back then really had something to do with the Wu family.
"Three years ago, my father bribed a family member in Shan Mansion and asked the family member to hide the letter in the study of Yiguo Gong.
Then in the name of the Criminal Department, the mansion of Yiguo Gong was searched, and then my father found those letters in the study, and after less than half a month, Yiguo Gong confessed. Wu Zizhi said cautiously,
Ning Xiaochuan looked at Nie Hongyi, Nie Hongyi nodded slightly, and then turned to look at Wu Zizhi, "That's all?" ”
"That's all, really, Ning Xiaochuan, you believe me, that's all I know, my father told me everything he knows." Wu Zizhi was so frightened that he hurriedly shouted, for fear that Ning Xiaochuan would not believe it,
"Just such a clumsy framing can make Yiguo confess his guilt?" Ning Xiaochuan said in disbelief, that's when he is the prince of the country, it's too casual to confess his guilt like this.
"At that time, my father was also surprised, but the goal had been achieved, and he didn't delve into anything......" Wu Zizhi hurriedly said, for fear that Ning Xiaochuan would not be satisfied with his answer.
Ning Xiaochuan nodded, turned around and walked out, Wu Zizhi inside shouted, "Ning Xiaochuan, Ning Wushao, I told you everything I know, you can let me go quickly." ”
"Someone will pick you up." Ning Xiaochuan dropped such a sentence, and the group left quickly.
After leaving the room, Ning Xiaochuan finally breathed in the fresh air that he hadn't seen for a long time, and sighed, "Miss Nie, I have to ask you to go again." ”
Nie Hongyi nodded knowingly.
……
Inside the Ning Mansion.
Ning He came to the stable in the backyard with a jar of wine, and the old Song Tou was leaning on the wooden pole next to the stable and falling asleep, and Huang Ye on the side saw Ning He coming over and made a hissing sound.
The hissing woke up Lao Song Tou, Lao Song Tou yawned, stretched his waist, woke up in his sleep, and then rubbed his eyes, and saw Ning He at a glance.
Old Song couldn't help but smile, "Eldest son, it's you." ”
Ning He put the wine in front of Old Song Tou and bowed his hand respectfully, "Mr. Song, Ning He came uninvited, disturb Mr. to rest, don't blame Mr." ”
"Don't Mr. Sir's call, the people who listen to it are weird and awkward, except for the five boys, your brothers are all so Wen Zou Zou, and the goosebumps of the people who listen to it are all erected."
Old Song Tou didn't seem to like this title very much, and hurriedly shook his head, but when he saw the wine, his eyes were a little immobile.
"Sir, Ning He's sudden visit is for Xiao Chuan, and now that Xiao Chuan is in trouble, you are the only one who can help him in the entire Ning Mansion." Ning He said straight to the point.
Old Song Tou took a sip of wine, smashed it and said with a smile, "You are here to scare me again, this is Yindu, if you can't protect the five boys here?" Don't do it, general, don't do it. ”
"It's a half-step master." Ning He continued.
Sure enough, hearing the half-step spirit master, Old Song Tou's face changed, and he looked at Ning He, "Your father asked you to come?" ”
"Yes."
"Your family, you're all scheming against me." Old Song Tou shook his head helplessly, and slowly got up, Ning He saw this, and hurriedly went up to help, Old Song Tou looked at the stable next to him, and gently stroked Huang Ye.
"Mr. is serious, the matter is urgent, I am also helpless, and I hope that Mr. will go out of the mountain and help Xiaochuan." Ning He bowed heavily at Old Song Tou, and his pious meaning Old Song Tou felt a little uncomfortable.
"Okay, okay, I really owe you the Ning family." Old Song Tou waved his hand helplessly, "Who told me to drink so much wine from your Ning family, hey, come out and mix, sooner or later you will have to pay it back." ”
"Thank you, sir."
Huang Ye next to him hissed again, and the old Song Tou muttered to himself, "The martyr is in his twilight years, and his heart is strong." ”
……
In the early morning of the next day, the weather that had been sunny and sunny suddenly became cloudy, which seemed to indicate that today was an extraordinary day.
Early in the morning, the family sent a letter to Wu Daoxiong, "The head of the family, a letter is stuffed at the door. ”
Wu Daoxiong took it, it was written that Wu Shangshu personally opened, Wu Daoxiong couldn't wait to open it, read it carefully, his lungs were about to be blown up, and it was written: If Wu Shangshu wants to save your son, please come to Jiangbei Town outside the city.
What's even more murderous is that there is a blood-red handprint on it, and you don't have to think that it is Wu Zishi's.
"Damn it!" Wu Daoxiong was furious.
Lei Kangshan next to him took the letter, read it carefully, and the corners of his mouth curved, "The handwriting of the Ning family boy." ”
"Mr. Lei, this is about to be the time of the last dynasty, and this trip to Jiangbei Town will be a trip to Mr. Lei." Wu Daoxiong said again.
Lei Kangshan nodded disappreciatively, "Dare to send a letter so blatantly, it is obvious that you are prepared, and wait for someone to take the bait, but ......"
"But what? Please sir make it clear. ”
Lei Kangshan's true qi was running, and the letter instantly turned into powder, "But in the face of absolute strength, they are looking for death!" ”
The Ning family, as the great Fengli Guogong, naturally has no shortage of masters, but the masters of the Ning family are all in Xiangzhou.
First, because Xiangzhou is located in the northwest corner, west of Xiqiang, north of Beiman, frequent wars, in order to protect the country, it is inevitable that a master is needed.
The second is that after the Taijia Army was recorded, Ning Zhi handed over the military power to Ning He, and at the same time transferred all the masters in the palace to make the royal family feel at ease.
Lei Kangshan knew the details of the Ning family, so he knew that he was calculating, but he was not afraid, because he didn't believe that the current Ning family still had a half-step master.
Lei Kangshan left the Wu family, sneered at the door, and rushed to Jiangbei Town.
At this time, Wu Daoxiong didn't know that in the imperial court, there was a bigger surprise waiting for him.
……
Dafeng Taihe Hall.
Gao Zhen sat quietly on the dragon chair in a dragon robe, Han Zhongxuan next to him bowed and stood aside, and hundreds of civil and military officials below were lined up on both sides, but unlike Ning He's return to Beijing that day, there were many new faces this time.
For example, Qin Wanzuka, the imperial master of the dynasty, who is among the civil officials and the relevant Zhongxian, is the father of the imperial concubine Qin, and now the grandfather of the eldest prince Gao Yuan, who also has a place to speak in the court.
Wu Daoxiong stood uneasily on top of the main hall, thinking about his own son in his heart.
The court is nothing more than some military and political affairs, and after the six ministries and the prime minister could not adjudicate, the Son of Heaven was ruled by Gao Zhen.
"What else do you Aiqing do, if there is nothing else to do, just step down." Gao Zhen looked at the quiet court hall and slowly spoke.
At this time, Ning He looked at Wu Daoxiong, the corners of his mouth curved, he took a deep breath, and just as he was about to go out to play, an official dressed in a dark red peony ornament, holding a white jade gui, and three salutes on his head stood up.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to play."
Everyone took a closer look, isn't this Xiao Jun, the doctor next to His Majesty?
At first, the counselor doctor was specifically to correct the emperor's words and deeds and help the emperor to stand upright.
And the doctor doesn't have to worry about anything, he can speak freely without worrying about taboos.
However, the counselor is also the official position with the highest mortality rate in Dafeng, and most of them are because they are too righteous and speak out to offend the royal family or offend hundreds of officials.
Therefore, for the post of doctor, there is also a "peony red-robed official, and Bai Guiyan is admonished." "Titled.
