Chapter 52: Combination leads to life, divide leads to death
"Yes, the three of us are indeed old, but I believe that after a fight tonight, those people should know Ning'er's strength. Wouldn't they send assassins easily?" said the old man of the three clans again.
"Well, but be careful." The old clan looked at the direction where Dugu Wuqing and Qianshanyuan disappeared, and a deep look appeared in his eyes.
It was only during the day that Yan Ning resisted the order.
At night, two assassins broke into Zhenbei Hou Mansion.
I have to say that people like Eunuch Liang really don’t take Zhenbei Hou Mansion seriously. But is my Zhenbei Hou Mansion really that easy to bully?
"Nie Yuan, Qin Fang." The old clan spoke.
"At." Two top-level experts came over.
"Ning'er, this is Nie Yuan, a master in the middle stage of the top level, and a friend your father met in the world." The old clan pointed to the top level master who had the full moon knife on his hand.
"I've seen the eldest young master!" Nie Yuan took the lead in salute without waiting for Yan Ning to speak.
"Uncle Nie Yuan, don't be polite." Yan Ning smiled.
"This is Qin Fang, the early stage of the top level, and is also your father's friend in the world. He is mainly responsible for some care of the village outside the mansion. Now the mansion is in urgent need of experts, so I specially asked someone to inform them to transfer them back." The old clan explained.
"Hello, Young Master." Qin Fang also saluted Yan Ning.
"Hello Uncle Qin Fang." Yan Ning continued to smile.
"Nie Yuan, how are you injured?" The old clan spoke again.
"It's just a little bit of skin injury. The other party doesn't seem to want to make enemies with the Hou's Mansion. It can be seen that it is the style of the Beggars' Sect and is open and upright." Nie Yuan once traveled around the world, so he naturally knew the style of the Beggars' Sect's work.
Don’t be afraid of the strong, don’t be bullying the weak.
The most important thing is that even if it is a challenge, it will stop when it reaches the point and will not actively make enemies with others.
"Okay, since that's the case, then please help me check who has been to Qingshan City's inn tonight." A cold light flowed out from the eyes of the old clan.
"Yeah, I understand." Nie Yuan nodded, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and jumped away directly.
...
Outside the Marquis' Mansion.
As Qianshan ran away, he found that Dugu Wuqing was gone.
“???”
Where is the person?!
You obviously looked injured just now?
Qianshanyuan's face was full of questions, but the person was indeed gone, so it would be meaningless if he looked for him. Fortunately, he knew the other party's identity.
"Xue'er said yesterday that if Yan Ning was an ordinary person, what would I do? If Yan Ning was an ordinary person, I would eat the two stone lions in front of the mansion!" Although Qianshanyuan believed that Yan Ning was a top-level master before this, this belief was not too firm.
After all, as rumors outside, all the strength Yan Ning showed was seen by the 'people in Zhenbei Hou Mansion' and outsiders did not see it in person.
But tonight, he saw it with his own eyes.
One move!
Defeat the enemy!
How overbearing?!
...
the next day.
Overnight, the news that Yan Ning defeated Dugu Wuqing, the deputy leader of the Beggars' Sect, with one move, swept through the streets and alleys of Qingshan City like a strong wind.
There was a lot of discussion in the teahouse and the tavern.
After all, these places are places where people gather in the world. Although Yan Ning's killing of the Black Wind Demon is also shocking, few people know about the strength of the Black Wind Demon.
But Dugu Wuqing is different.
Dugu Wuqing is a famous master in the world.
Moreover, the elders and deputy gang leaders who once entered the Wuming Black Mountain and rescued the Beggars' Sect have long known this and everyone has known it.
Yan Ning defeated Dugu Wuqing, and the people in the world were naturally shocked.
...
Qingshan City, inside the inn.
Eunuch Liang still lived in it, while Changpingbo and Viscount Jing'an did not leave immediately.
The news of Yan Ning's defeat of Dugu Wuqing spread overnight in Qingshan City, and the three of them naturally received the news and gathered together.
"Is the news given by Si Bailan fake? Yan Ning is actually not a weak and incompetent person. Otherwise, how could he defeat Dugu Wuqing, the Beggar Sect in public?" Chang Pingbo frowned.
"Changping Bo can't see the problem?" After hearing Changping Bo's words, Viscount Jing'an inexplicably raised a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Hmm? What's the point in the words?" Changpingbo looked at Viscount Jing'an.
"Can Eunuch Liang know?" Viscount Jing'an did not answer Changping Bo immediately, but looked at Eunuch Liang beside him.
"Haha, our family has sent someone out to find out the news. I guess I'm going to come back now." Eunuch Liang smiled mysteriously.
"Inquiry about the news? You two..."
"Dongdong!"
Two knocks came.
"Come in." Liang Gong said openly.
“Cruff.”
The door was pushed open, and an imperial guard dressed in a civilian costume walked in, then gave a light salute to Eunuch Liang, but he had no intention of kneeling.
"Qi Dutong, what's the situation?" Eunuch Liang asked without any surprise.
"Everything was as expected by my father-in-law. Zhenbei Hou Mansion was indeed alert. The second wife Si Bailan had been put under house arrest." The imperial guard replied.
"Oh? Where is the Xiao Cui who delivered the letter?" Eunuch Liang nodded.
"It's gone, the personal maid next to Si Bailan was replaced by two other people, one named Xiaolan and the other named Xiaoyu. As far as I know, neither of them was Si Bailan's person." The imperial guard replied again.
"Well, thank you all for your hard work." While Eunuch Liang spoke, he pointed at the top of his head.
"Not working hard." The imperial guard nodded and exited the door.
Then, a cold shout sounded outside the door.
"Since you're here, stay!"
"boom!"
"It's a top-grade realm!"
“…”
Soon, the door was pushed open again.
The imperial guards who had just come in came in again, but their clothes seemed a little ragged, and it was obvious that they had been through a fight.
"We cannot keep the top-level master, but judging from our skills, we should be the disciple of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion mentioned in the information "Nie Yuan."
"Haha, everything is as we expected. Our family was humiliated yesterday, and Si Bailan sent a maid tonight. How could such a big move be hidden from the eyes of the Marquis' Mansion?" The smile on the corner of Eunuch Liang's mouth became more and more intense.
"What does father-in-law mean?" Chang Pingbo's eyes were even more confused.
"Can you still not see the deep meaning of Changping Bo?" Viscount Jing'an picked up a cup of tea and took a sip.
"What do you mean... Wait, Yan Ning defeated Dugu Wuqing with one move last night. Could it be that the trick was deliberately made by the Zhenbei Hou Mansion?!" Chang Pingbo's face was suddenly shocked.
"That's right, if Zhenbei Hou Mansion had no news about the incident that Si Bailan sent people over, then our family really couldn't believe this second wife. However, with these two things to prove it, it is certain that Si Bailan's intelligence and plans are true!" Eunuch Liang said affirmatively.
"I understand. Zhenbei Hou Mansion is afraid that things will be exposed, so I deliberately added a scene to us last night. The purpose is to make me continue to believe that Yan Ning is really a top-level master!" After hearing this, Chang Pingbo finally understood.
"Haha, the method is obvious. I have sent someone to inquire. It is reported that two assassins appeared last night by the Marquis of Zhenbei. However, we did not send the assassins there. Isn't this a hidden bell? If the second wife was banned, you can understand that Si Bailan is the granddaughter of the former Grand Tutor. If he had not committed any major things, would he dare to do such a thing?" Viscount Jing'an explained with a smile.
"Yes, that's right. I was almost deceived by them, hahaha!" After smiling, Changping Bo smiled and raised another cup of tea: "It was Eunuch Liang who was right to the point of being sharp and saw the flaws!"
"It's easy to say." Eunuch Liang waved his hand, and then his eyes sank: "I was a little hesitant at first, but now that the matter has been clear, we will ask you two to do our best together and do our best to deal with Yan Ning, the "Five Mansions Jin Iron Inspection Department", for other things..."
When Eunuch Liang said this, his eyes narrowed, but he slowly glanced at Changpingbo and Viscount Jing'an with his light.
Changpingbo and Viscount Jing'an immediately fell silent.
Both of them were tasting tea.
One bite after another.
But soon, both of them laughed.
"Haha, since Eunuch Liang has already said so clearly, then we are naturally going to do our best."
"Well, Zhenbei Hou Mansion has been in Beichuan for so many years, and its foundation is so deep. If you care about other things at this time, you will probably have no good results. Hahaha, if you combine, you will live, and if you divide, you will die. We must follow Eunuch Liang's wishes!"
"Okay, since the two lords are willing to help each other, our family will drink this cup and wish this success in advance!" Liang Gong finally laughed when he heard this.
Chapter completed!
