bastard returns

Ning Yuan endured it for a while before holding back his smile, and said: "Actually, I've never been interested in meddling with other people's business, but I have a shortcoming of holding grudges. If you do this, you won't be afraid of digging a hole for yourself. "

The leading masked man was stunned. Ning Yuan looked like a frail scholar, but facing them these vicious men, not only did he not beg for mercy, but he didn't even show any fear or cowardice. threaten yourself?

Under the mask, Ning Lie gasped for breath twice. He has always had a calm temper in the imperial guards. Although he is still young, those soldiers fear him even more than the commander Han Tao, and the commander-in-chief This position was also worked out with blood and sweat. The sour scholar in front of him actually dared to threaten himself. He thought he was something!

At that moment, Ning Lie stopped talking nonsense with him, and made a show of the two people who were shackling Ning Yuan on the left and right, signaling them to start fighting. The two people were also unambiguous, one left and one right raised their fists, ready to let Ning Yuan Yuan's face blossomed.

It's just that at the moment when the fist was about to hit Ning Yuan's cheek straightly, both of them felt a blur in front of their eyes. It was the opponent's fist, with two thumps, accompanied by a hoarse howl, the bridge of the nose of both of them was broken by the opponent's fist, and the blood donation was covered with tears.

Ning Lie rubbed his eyes and wondered if he had misread it. Ning Yuan actually just took a step back and got out from between the two subordinates. Now that the two were beaten so dizzy, naturally they didn't notice it. Standing behind them was Ning Yuan. Ning Yuan took another step forward at this time, raised his hands to hold a head with one hand, and slammed into the middle forcefully.

There was another bang, and the two men who had been aggressive before slid to the ground like two puddles of mud, completely fainting.

"You!" Unexpectedly, his two subordinates were so useless, and Ning Lie didn't have time to think about it, so he glanced at the other two subordinates beside him.

The two subordinates were not timid either, they each put their postures and rushed towards Ning Yuan. Ning Yuan moved his neck. Over the years, most of the things he encountered were resolved with words, and there were seldom times when he needed to do it. Now that these people insist on making trouble for him, he simply lets them see that his kung fu is not for nothing.

Ning Lie didn't bring many people out, but he felt that he would not need many men to play tricks on a scholar like Ning Yuan. He never thought that Ning Yuan had martial arts, and he looked good. The good fighters selected from the guards' subordinates can usually block several people with one person, but today they obviously hit a ghost. Ning Lie watched the remaining two followers rush towards Ning Yuan, but Ning Yuan's movements were even more serious. Quickly, lightly let go of the fist of the first big man, and then slapped his elbow unceremoniously, followed by another sweeping kick that knocked down No. Kicked in the waist.

The action is smooth and smooth, in one go.

Ning Lie was dumbfounded. In just a few breaths of time, the four attendants he had brought all lay down. Two of them were unconscious. Bow down and howl, apparently unable to stand up anymore, he looked at Ning Yuan who was slowly walking towards him, and unconsciously took half a step back.

"Do you want to run away?" Ning Yuan raised the corners of his mouth and smiled mockingly at this moment.

But this smile completely angered Ning Lie. Ning Lie is the commander of the imperial guards. He has never lost his kung fu. How could he escape? He rushed over, raised his fist and smashed it.

Ning Yuan could tell at a glance that this guy in front of him was just a superficial guy. He might indeed have some kung fu, but although the imperial guards guarded the capital, the capital has been peaceful in recent years, and the imperial guards are not as rigorous as the local army. The life here is much more comfortable, and Ning Lie, who can be seen in the imperial guards, is supposed to be better than ordinary soldiers if he is placed in the Jiangzhou garrison. Ning Yuan, who has cultivated internal skills since childhood, saw it.

Facing Ning Lie's fist, Ning Yuan did not avoid it, he also raised his fist, and just punched him straight and straight.Ning Lie originally tensed his muscles and wanted to use this punch to knock Ning Yuan away, but he didn't know that the moment the two fists collided, he felt a strong force coming from Ning Yuan's fist, and his arm was torn apart. There was a sharp pain like cracking, and crackling sound came from the bones of the fingers, which actually broke.

The unbearable pain made his whole face turn blue, but he still tried his best not to scream, and Ning Yuan's movements also changed at this time, his right hand turned into a fist and slid across Ning Lie's arm, Finally hit the big hole on his chest.

Entering the body from the inside, instantly sealed all of Ning Lie's acupuncture points.

This time Ning Lie couldn't yell out the pain even if he wanted to, he just stared at Ning Yuan with his puffy eyes and a funny squatting posture.

"Kungfu is so bad that I really take myself seriously, like a frog sitting in a well." Ning Yuan clapped his palms, walked around Ning Lie, and then pulled off his face covering, "No Don't learn from others to bully others and make jokes for nothing, I said that I didn't want to meddle in your business, but now I think it's not bad to give Ning Zhongkun a gift."

After finishing speaking, he slapped Ning Lie's backside, Ning Lie's eyes went dark, and he didn't know anything.

That night, Ning Lie didn't return home for the whole time. Although Mrs. Rong was a little worried, she didn't become suspicious. After all, at Ning Lie's age, playfulness is common. , Maybe it's because she finished the things she told her and went to have some fun.

Rong was not at all worried that Ning Lie would screw him up, because he only thought that his two sons were talented in literature and martial arts, and it was easy to deal with a poor scholar, so when he When the maid rushed in to tell her what had happened, she couldn't believe her ears, and for a while thought that the maid was mad because she was full.

When she finally followed Ning Huayang to the place where the accident happened, the scene in front of her almost made him faint with his eyes rolled.

Her precious son, Ning Lie, was tied together naked with four other men, and hung on the archway at the entrance of Dongdajie. The posture of the binding was extremely shameful, so that the most secret parts of the four were exposed. In front of all the passers-by, the crowd of onlookers had already surrounded the inner and outer third floors of the archway completely. The men pointed at the appearance of five people, and the women blushed and covered their faces with feigned reserve. The eyes seem to be afraid to look, but they will cover their ears and spread their fingers apart, and use a pair of watery eyes to carefully measure the size of Ning Lie and the others.

And those four people obviously woke up a long time ago, but their mouths were stuffed with sackcloth, their hands and feet were hung and they couldn't move. Feeling ashamed, to the point of having no other feelings, but Ning Lie is different. If he has cultivated his inner strength, he may even have the thought of cutting off his meridians. He claims to be noble and serves in the army, but today he has something like this What a shame he will have in the Imperial Guard in the future!

"What are you standing there for, why don't you put the young masters down!" Rong Shi took a breather, and slapped the head of the housekeeper next to him.

She was also impatient, and only wanted to save Ning Lie as soon as possible, but she didn't control her volume at all. When she shouted, everyone's eyes immediately shifted from the original "bird watching" to their faces.

Standing beside Rong, Ning Huayang slapped the gossip woman in the face, but it was obviously too late, because the whispering of the crowd had changed from teasing and "comparison of size" to "So it's the son of these two couples." "Hey, I don't think that's Mr. Ning Huayang from Duke Ning's mansion?" "Oh, is that the man on the archway Mr. Ning's young master?"

Hearing these comments, Mrs. Rong also said inwardly that it was terrible. Many people in Huajing City have seen the world. Ning Lie was tied to the top, stripped naked and separated far away. Maybe he hasn't been recognized yet, but When she called out like this, others noticed her and Ning Huayang. Once someone recognized them, they could immediately tell that the man above was her son. It's the time when the army is proud of the spring breeze. If such a shameful incident gets out, even if it's not the daughter's family, it will be fine, but it will definitely be a laughing stock!

A few servants rushed to put Ning Lie and the others down, and put on clothes for them. Ning Lie's legs were so weak that he could hardly stand up. Seeing his parents, just as he was about to cry, Ning Huayang crackled. He greeted him with a slap in the face, cursed "Idiot!", and then without giving him a chance to speak, let his servants escort him into the carriage, and left the crowd as if fleeing.

Such a grand event was watched by so many people again, so it naturally spread quickly. As soon as Ning Huayang returned to the Duke's mansion, he bumped into someone sent by the Marquis of Changsheng to inquire about the situation.Ning Huayang secretly scolded Pang Song, that old fox would not really care about them, most likely he just came to see the joke, but he didn't dare to turn against the other party, so he fooled the scout back with a haha, and then he looked gloomy He entered Ning Lie's room without hesitation.

Ning Huayang and Pang Song were on the same line long before Gao Yu's accident. Pang Song knew that his nephew Lin Chong and Ning Zhongkun had formed a relationship. After leaving the classroom, the Wu family quickly came to stand on the front line with Ning Zhongkun. It can be said that once Ning Zhongkun becomes the heir, it will definitely not be a good thing for Pang Song, or even a bad thing, if Ning Zhongkun still remembers his grudge, if he uses his power to suppress others, their Pang family will have countless troubles, so Pang Song decided to take the bottom line and secretly help Ning Huayang get the position of son until he becomes the new Duke. Not only is it not a bad thing, it is a great thing.

Ning Huayang naturally knew what Pang Song was planning, but it was of great benefit to him. Grasp the opponent's weaknesses so as to become a useful pawn in the future, so Pang Song sent people to inquire about the news, where is the real concern.

"What the hell is going on!" Ning Huayang suppressed the anger in his heart and stared at Ning Lie who was sitting on the bed like a dejected ghost. Yang's question seemed to have poked some sore spot in him, the humiliation expression on his face became even worse, his throat rolled twice before he opened his mouth slowly.

"You said it was that kid named Ning Yuan!?" Ning Huayang walked around the room a few times with his hands behind his back, his face became more and more gloomy, and he pointed at Ning Lie's nose and shouted: "What a waste, as an officer, martial arts It’s fine if he’s weaker than a scholar, but he’s pretty good, why are you provoking him!”

"Yes, it's mother..." Ning Lie stuttered when he was scolded by Ning Huayang. Although Ning Huayang gave people the illusion of honesty and honesty outside, in the eyes of their family members, this was just Ning Lie. It's just Huayang's protective look. Only they know how violent this man is.

"It's you!?" Ning Huayang shifted his gaze to Rong's face again.

Mrs. Rong was taken aback by that gloomy gaze, and said submissively: "I... I also heard from your husband that that kid is a disaster, and, and I see that he is getting closer and closer to Ning Zhongkun. Thinking that I will always help Ning Zhongkun to deal with us in the future, why not teach him a lesson..."

"Stupid woman! You really are a stupid woman! She's so ecstatic!" Ning Huayang's whole face was as tense as a rock, "Have you forgotten how much effort we have spent to get to where we are today! A little bit The face is so extravagant, one day my calculations will be completely defeated by you, a fool!"

"It's just a commoner boy with no status, what kind of branch can he grow..." Rong Shi muttered, but seeing Ning Huayang's face, he immediately lowered his head apprehensively and dared not speak.

"Just a commoner boy? A commoner boy would make Lie Er look like this?" Ning Huayang really turned away Rong's head to see what was inside, "I'll tell you, that boy There are also some entanglements with His Highness the Fourth Prince, and even His Highness has nothing to do with him for a while, so how capable are you?"

"What? That kid is so powerful?" Rong's mouth opened wide, "I can't tell at all!"

Naturally, I can't see it, and it's impossible for me to reveal the fact that the Fourth Highness has a crush on that kid.Ning Huayang said in his heart, although he knew from Pang Song's mouth that Sikong Xu had the habit of breaking sleeves, which really surprised Ning Huayang for a while, but other people's preferences have nothing to do with him, all he cares about is what other people can do. Can't give him what he wants, such as power and position.

"In short, remember, you must not do such extravagant and stupid things right now, otherwise I will be the first to let you go." Ning Huayang stared at Ning Lie, "I have already asked for leave for you, You don't have to go to the army these days, just stay indoors and cool your face, as for you." He looked at Rong Shi again, "You know how to be modest, and hide your petty market temper Well, don't spend your whole life being thought of as the hotel owner's daughter."

"The hotel owner's daughter" has always been regarded by Rong as a short life, and when she was poked at the sore spot, Rong's face suddenly turned ugly, but she didn't have a list to refute Ning Huayang, she just clenched the handkerchief in her sleeve robe.

After Ning Huayang left, there was no one else in the room except for Rong Shi and Ning Lie.The two mother and son were silent for a long while, Ning Lie suddenly slammed his fist on the bed, "That brat, dare to treat me like this, do you really want me to do that!"

"It's true that we can't let it go." Rong's fingers holding the handkerchief loosened and tightened again, "He bullied you like this, if we just let it go without saying a word, it will only make us look useless. , if this is known to others, let alone how they will look at you, this hatred must be avenged."

Ning Lie originally just said a few cheerful words to vent his anger, but when he heard Rong's words seem to be serious, he became a little timid, "Mother, you are telling the truth, but Dad just said..."

"Don't pay attention to what your father said. My mother has been bullied enough for most of her life. I can't let you be wronged anymore. You should be wronged by a commoner." Rong said: "Besides, some things only need to be spent a little Silver is enough, there is no need to do it yourself, what can your father say then?"

Ning Lie immediately understood Rong's meaning, and laughed a couple of times.

****

"Master, I have already found out what you asked me to investigate." Zhou Shi pushed the door into Ning Yuan's room, took out a few pieces of paper full of words and placed them in front of him.

The words written on the paper were extremely small and densely packed, but they were all records. Ning Yuan glanced at them and nodded, "I knew that Pang Song and Ning Huayang really colluded."

"The young master is capable. He even knows that there is a gang like 'Baodiao' in the capital." Zhou Shi wiped his nose, "I was shocked when I saw them come up with these records."

"The Baodiao Gang is also a branch of the Beggars' Gang. They are quite famous in Jianghu. Wherever there are beggars, there are Baodiao." Ning Yuan put the papers away. The news that the Pang Mansion will send people from time to time to communicate with the people from the Ning Mansion, but what about the recent movements of Pang Song and Sikong Xu?"

Zhou Shidao: "No, they said that the places where such people appear are heavily guarded, even if they know where they are, they will not find out what they are doing, and even if they are found, it is a dangerous business, and those who inquire will not Do."

Ning Yuan nodded knowingly.

In fact, he has nothing to do with the internal strife in Ningguo's mansion. When he was blocked by Ning Lie that day, he said that just to ridicule him. But after returning, Ning Yuan suddenly remembered that Sikong Xu had treated him what has been said.

When Sikong Xu was threatening and luring him, he vaguely mentioned something similar to whether Ning Zhongkun could become the heir to the throne or not. , But now that I think about it, I realized that other thoughts came out, so I asked Zhou Shi to find the "Inquiry" gang, which is active in the underworld in Huajing and specializes in selling all kinds of news. They will regularly send people to have close contacts with the Ningguo government.

Ever since the incident between Ning Zhongkun and Lin Chong broke out, the Ning Mansion and the Pang Mansion had already been in a situation where they were not in contact with each other, even if they hadn't been in dire straits. So since this kind of phenomenon happened, it meant that the person who came and went was definitely not Ning Guogong, Of course it wouldn't be Ning Zhongkun, after all the investigation, there was only the "honest" Ning Huayang.

The next speculation is very logical. Sikong Xu and Pang Song have already huddled together. In order to consolidate their power, they have also attracted Ning Huayang who urgently needs support to compete for the position of the son. As long as they can support Ning Huayang to become the new Ning Guogong, On the contrary, Duke Ning's Mansion will also be a great help to them in the future, which is really a good idea.

If it is said that Ning Yuan had no intention of fighting in the Ningguo Palace before, and it was just a scene to help Ning Zhongkun fight for the position of the son, then now it seems that if his speculation is true, then the Ningguo Palace This internal strife, if he doesn't want to be involved, he has to get involved.Since he didn't want Sikong Xu and Pang Song's wishful thinking to succeed, he had to transfer the abacus to his side first.

"By the way, young master, there is one more thing." Zhou Shi straightened his expression suddenly, and said, "When I went to Baobao to inquire about the news, their contact person told me another news. Someone put a price on the black market. I want to find someone to teach the young master a lesson, and I heard that I have already connected with the leader of the Gopher Gang."

"Oh? Someone is so boring?" Ning Yuan raised his head, "Have you asked who they told you?"

"As long as they have enough money, there is nothing they can't say." Zhou Shi said, "It's the one who failed to tease the young master last time, but was stripped naked by the young master and tied to the archway."

Ning Yuan let out a muffled laugh, "I have no skills, so I thought about spending money to find some desperadoes in the rivers and lakes. Such people are actually in the imperial guards guarding the capital. They are really slapping the emperor in the face." After thinking about it for a while , Ning Yuan said: "You go again, find the informant who is inquiring, and ask him to pass a message to the boss of the gopher gang for me, saying that no matter how much money the person who asked him promised him, I will give it to you." Double."

"Why give those local ruffians so much money." Zhou Shi said: "They can come whenever they want, we don't have to be afraid of anything, and I heard that these ruffians are ruffians, but they also talk about nonsense morals, maybe they won't accept it. Where is our money?"

"You are wrong, Zhou Shi. I didn't give them money to make them cancel their plan to deal with me. On the contrary, I wanted them to come to trouble me so that they could fulfill their employer's order, and it wouldn't be considered a breach of morality. I give them money, but I want them to help me do a little thing while fulfilling the employer's order." Ning Yuan smiled and said: "A little bit is very easy, very smooth, very harmless, and even just a matter of lifting a finger. "

Zhou Shi looked at Ning Yuan's face, and after following Ning Yuan for so long, he couldn't be more familiar with that smile.

Because when he was in Ningfu, Jiangzhou, he often saw it.

And every time the young master just smiles like this, it indicates that someone is about to suffer...
