When Li Cheng saw Gu Ning for the first time, he thumped in his heart, feeling that things were going to get worse.
He managed to squeeze out a smile, passed through the human wall formed by the servants of the Li family, walked to Gu Ning, and bowed deeply: "See Changning County Lord."
"I can't afford Mr. Li's gift." Gu Ning smiled, and said coldly, "If I come a step later, I'm afraid your Li family may have become the king and hegemony in Yuezhou."
Hearing this, the smile on Li Cheng's face suddenly became stiff.
There are still so many people around, he never expected that Gu Ning would suddenly say such a sentence, making him unable to step down.
"Where did the county lord come from?" Li Cheng hurriedly bowed to Gu Ning, "We just passed by here..."
Gu Ning smiled inexplicably, and sarcastically said: "At any rate, he is also the head of the Yuezhou family. There are more than 100 bandits in the district, and they can scare you?"
Li Cheng smiled shyly and pushed all these responsibilities away: "Our Li family is all old and weak, women and children, how dare we block the lives of hundreds of people in the whole family? In desperation, we have to avoid them."
"But why do I feel that you are in collusion with these bandits?" Gu Ning said lightly, "Zhou Jie, bring Second Young Master Li back to Yuezhou, I want to interrogate myself."
As soon as these words came out, Li Cheng could no longer hold back the stiff smile on his face.
The guards around him immediately drew their swords and faced the arriving guards.
Li Cheng's tone was cold, and he said word by word: "What is the meaning of the county lord? He will arrest me for interrogation indiscriminately. Do you dare to ask the county lord if he has any evidence?"
"You're wronged! Our second son is the kindest person, how could he collude with these bandits?" A man who looked like a butler rushed out, crying and shouting, while standing in front of Li Cheng.
Gu Ning blinked his pretty eyes, and said innocently: "If Mr. Li didn't collude with these bandits, why should you be afraid? Don't worry, I will never use lynching, I just invite you back to have a cup of tea. "
As soon as she finished speaking, the housekeeper yelled: "Yuezhou City has been occupied by the Huns, the county master sent my second son to Yuezhou, isn't it because he wants him to die?"
"Even if you are the head of the county, you shouldn't take human life as a joke!"
The butler's voice is loud, even in a noisy crowd.
Some people who didn't know what to do were uneasy, and the housekeeper's words undoubtedly hit the place where they were most afraid.
Li Cheng, as the second son of the Li family, was powerless to fight back in front of the county lord, let alone ordinary people like them?
However, before the steward could arouse the emotions of the people around him, he heard Gu Ning briskly say: "So you don't know?"
I saw Gu Ning's eyebrows curved, and his voice gradually raised: "The Huns couldn't enter Yuezhou at all, they couldn't even enter Jing'an Pass! The 2 Huns army, under the offensive of our army, only [-] More than [-] people have now gone back in despair."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.
The people around were excited and extremely excited, and many of them had tears in their eyes: "We don't have to leave our hometown! We can go home!"
Li Cheng wanted to force a smile, but his heart was as heavy as his, and the smile at this time was uglier than crying.
how come?
Li Cheng was bewildered, and his face gradually turned pale. How could the Huns lose?How can this be?
Ren Li Cheng didn't want to believe it, but Gu Ning led hundreds of elite soldiers here, which is enough to prove that the Huns were indeed repelled. Otherwise, with Gu Ning's status as gold and jade, how could he stay in Vietnam? state?
The cheers of the people around him were extremely harsh to Li Cheng's ears. He could hardly control his anxiety and anger, but when he looked up, he met Gu Ningqing's lingering eyes.
In an instant, Li Cheng's heart turned cold.
Gu Ning's voice dragged on, and he smiled meaningfully, "The Huns have retreated, why is Mr. Li Er unhappy? Could it be that...you want the Huns to break through the gate of Yuezhou?"
"No!" Li Cheng subconsciously refuted Gu Ning, "I'm just a little surprised. Yuezhou was invaded by the Huns for many years, but they never let the Huns retreat."
Gu Ning's tone was gentle, but with a deep meaning that Li Cheng didn't dare to delve into: "This time against the Huns, the whole army is united and united into one rope, unlike before... After all, if there are ghosts in the army , even if the opponent is a weak child who has no strength to restrain a chicken, we can't beat it."
Li Cheng's body was stiff, and he only felt that every sentence of Gu Ning was full of deep meaning, which made him feel uneasy.
"Since everything is fine in Yuezhou City, Second Young Master Li will follow me into the city." Gu Ning smiled lightly, "As for the women and children of the Li family, I will also let someone take care of them."
"Zhou Jie."
Following Gu Ning's soft call, Zhou Jie immediately led someone to restrain Li Cheng and the butler beside him.
Gu Ning looked around, but she couldn't find the person she was looking for from the crowd of the Li family. She was a little regretful: "It seems that most of the Li family have left, and only Li Cheng is left."
"According to my servant's investigation these days, the real ruler of the Li family is not the head of the Li family, but Mrs. Li who he married later." Chunyu reminded in a low voice, "Master, you have to be careful!"
"It seems that there is another person behind that Mrs. Li." Gu Ning's peachy eyes were slightly raised, and his tone was calm, "Chunyu, send someone to pay attention to the movement in Yunzhou, and be sure to catch the rest of the Li family!"
"Your servants have written it down." Chunyu nodded in a low voice, "The portraits of everyone in the Li family have also been sent to the state capital near Yuezhou, and they will definitely be caught."
Li Cheng and the butler were put aside, and the two of them heard the conversation between Gu Ning and Chunyu clearly.
"You..." Li Cheng wanted to say something, but someone blocked his mouth with a rag.
Li Cheng's eyes were terrified, and he looked at Gu Ning uneasily.
Gu Ning flipped the slightly messy bun with his hands, and said with a smile: "Master Li didn't expect it? All this is just a trick I set up! I know all the little tricks you secretly do, such as privately Opening iron mines is like defrauding laborers everywhere, or colluding with the Huns secretly."
Every time she said a word, Li Cheng's pupils dilated.
"Hmm!" Li Cheng's eyes showed panic, he struggled desperately, but he was taken down by the guards like a pig waiting to be slaughtered.
The situation changed suddenly, and everyone in the Li family was uneasy.
Some who knew how to wink and sneaked into the ranks of ordinary people were all caught out by the guards.
After pulling out several restless servants of the Li family, Gu Ning sat at the checkpoint where the bandits were originally sitting, and said kindly: "The Li family colluded with the Huns, they are sinners of Chu, and they have caused you to suffer for many years. The chief culprit of the war."
"If you have any conscience, point out the lackeys of the Li family, and give justice to the people who died tragically under the Huns' cavalry all these years!"
As soon as these words came out, the effect was remarkable.
"He is the son of Steward Li! He usually helps the Li family to recruit workers! My father was recruited to the Li family, and there has been no news since then!" Wu Xiulian, with disheveled hair, threw herself on one of the servants of the Li family like a crazy woman. body.
She bit off the man's ear fiercely, blood was all over her mouth and forehead, and she shouted ferociously: "It's him! Even if it turns into ashes, I will recognize him!"
The man covered his ears and fell to the ground screaming in pain.
Others were frightened by Wu Xiulian's ferocious appearance, but Zhou Jie quickly calmed down, lifted that person out, and roughly wiped off all the blood and dirt on his face.
"That's him!" Wu Xiulian said viciously, "He was the one who went to recruit workers near our village!"
"He also went to our village to recruit workers! Many people followed him in order to have enough food. Now that I think about it, they have not heard from them for several months!"
Butler Li's son was in mourning, like a dead dog being held by Zhou Jie.
The situation was over, Li Cheng closed his eyes in pain.
He knew that he was completely screwed this time.
After Steward Li's son was recognized by Wu Xiulian, many others were also identified one by one, and all of them were caught by the guards.
The remaining servants of the Li family did not dare to move around casually, for fear of encountering bandits, so they could only follow Gu Ning and return to the city of Yuezhou together.
At this time in Yuezhou City, Chu Shiling was waiting here early.
When she saw Gu Ning's carriage, she waved vigorously at Gu Ning.
The carriage stopped at the princess' mansion, and when Gu Ning got out of the carriage, Chu Shiling hugged her tightly.
"You guys are really good!" Chu Shiling's eyes lit up, and he spoke quickly, "One went to the border to kill the Huns, and the other waited for the rabbit, and captured the Li family! Why didn't you tell me anything about it beforehand?"
Gu Ning rolled his eyes: "If I tell you, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch Li Cheng today."
Chu Shiling has a carefree personality, and she can spread any words.
Hearing this, Chu Shiling pinched Gu Ning in dissatisfaction, and said angrily: "I don't just say everything!"
Soon, she picked up her mood again, looked at Gu Ning excitedly and said, "Did you really find evidence that the Li family colluded with the Huns?"
"That's natural." Mentioning this matter, Gu Ning showed a sneering smile in his eyes, "Not only the Li family, but also another person who colluded with the Huns... is also under my control."
Chu Shiling seemed to be frightened, and covered her chest at this moment: "Could you be talking about the person I thought of?"
Gu Ning never answered, but the deep meaning in her eyes was enough to make Chu Shiling affirm her guess.
Chu Shiling followed behind Gu Ning, muttering in his mouth: "How is it possible? Why did he collude with the Huns? Based on his family background..."
"Naturally, it is profitable." Gu Ning said lightly, "These people are mercenary, as long as they can benefit their own family, what absurd things can't be done?"
At this time, the rapid sound of horseshoes on the corner of the street sounded, Gu Ning's heart twitched, and he followed the sound to look at the person coming.
Under the bright sunlight, Xie Yan's black robe fluttered in the wind, his handsome and fair face was dazzling, and he was running towards her.
He managed to squeeze out a smile, passed through the human wall formed by the servants of the Li family, walked to Gu Ning, and bowed deeply: "See Changning County Lord."
"I can't afford Mr. Li's gift." Gu Ning smiled, and said coldly, "If I come a step later, I'm afraid your Li family may have become the king and hegemony in Yuezhou."
Hearing this, the smile on Li Cheng's face suddenly became stiff.
