bastard returns

How can that old woman come back?Ning Huayang began to quickly add up in his mind, what is going on!Not to mention that he specially sent someone to watch Ning Shanshan and Wu Shi in the nunnery and not allow them to cause trouble. Before that, he specially sent a killer to kill them. Now the news of the killer has not come back. The Wu family has come back ?How is this possible? Could it be that the old woman can beat the assassin with her bare hands!

While Ning Huayang was thinking this way, he hurried towards the gate of the mansion. Jing Zhaoyin and others naturally followed. Outside the gate of Duke Ningguo's mansion, there was a complete commotion. Mrs. Wu's hair was disheveled and her body was dirty. Disgraced like a beggar, standing in the middle of the street, weeping and accusing Ning Zhongkun of his viciousness to the passing people, saying that this person is extremely unfilial and ambitious, he is simply the scum of scum, the scum of scum , Ningguo Duke's Mansion is located in a prosperous place, and there are a lot of people passing by. Soon, many people gathered around. Seeing this, Mrs. Wu spoke more freely, accusing Ning Huayang of being a sinner who deserves to be damned through the ages .

As the wife of the Duke's Mansion, Mrs. Wu was suddenly sent out of the capital by Ning Huayang. Although it was said that she was going to a nunnery to see her daughter, many people in the capital had secretly guessed the inside story. Now Mrs. Wu Appearing suddenly in such a distressed appearance confirmed the speculation that had been circulating in the streets and alleys. Coupled with her current appearance filled with righteous indignation, passers-by would not be unconvinced by what she said. Whispering among each other, saying that Ning Huayang treats his aunt like this is really devoid of conscience.

Wu Shi was surrounded by a few servants of the Duke's Mansion. Seeing that the incident was too big, they wanted to stop Wu Shi's absurd act, but Wu Shi was a noble person, so they couldn't do anything by force, they could only stand aside Persuading them, how could Mrs. Wu's pungent temper give good looks to these servants who helped Ning Huayang to abuse others, and even gave them a few slaps.

Just as the commotion was raging, Ning Huayang finally came out from inside.

Seeing Ning Huayang, Mrs. Wu suddenly screamed and rushed forward as if she had been injected with chicken blood.She has been imprisoned in the nunnery for so long, and she already hated this bastard in her heart. She made such a fuss on the street because she wanted to ruin Ning Huayang's reputation, and now even he himself has come out , under the crowd of so many passers-by, how can Wu Shi be polite, he stepped forward and raised his hand to greet Ning Huayang's face.

A few servants didn't stop them in time, but it really made Wu rush to Ning Huayang. Ning Huayang was still in shock and didn't recover, and his reaction was not as fast as Wu's. With two beeps, Wu shi greeted her left and right cheeks harshly. The slap marks and scratches left Ning Huayang's face in addition to red and swollen marks, and there were also a few blood lines, which were Wu shi's deliberate scratches. from.

"You bastard who kills thousands of knives, you are a rebellious beast, you dare to frame your son and put your mother under house arrest. Even if my old woman is desperate to die, I will let the emperor punish you severely!" After Wu's beating was not enough, He grabbed Ning Huayang's skirt and shook it for a while. Ning Huayang's face was extremely ugly, but with so many people around him watching, he didn't know how to react, so he froze for a moment.

Wu Shi is really anxious, since she married into Ningguo Duke's mansion, she has never felt this kind of idleness. Also, the lady of the country who is usually high and high, everyone respects her wherever she goes, so how can she be angry with him?As a result, there was no need to investigate for a while, but she was sent to a nunnery by Ning Huayang for no reason, and locked her in a dark room. Wu didn't even know if he would die in that nunnery.

Speaking of the person who rescued herself, it was not just a matter of origin. He broke into the nunnery, wounded the guard guarding her three times, and then stunned her with medicine. At that time, Wu Shi thought it was Ning Huayang The assassin sent to marry her, but when she woke up, she found that she had returned to Huajing and was lying in an alley not far from the Duke's mansion. Come back to find Ning Huayang's troubles.

"Lord Ning, is the Duke's wife telling the truth? Are you really putting your aunt under house arrest?" Jing Zhaoyin looked at Ning Huayang in disbelief.The incident of poisoning before was originally only the accusation of Princess Wanyi, but there was no evidence. In addition, Ning Huayang took the risk of killing the only witness. At this time, Mrs. Wu suddenly came out. With a red mouth and white teeth, she said conclusively that Ning Huayang "framed his aunt and placed his aunt under house arrest". I also feel as if I caught a big fish!

"Mother, since you have lost your mind, your son sent you out of the city to recuperate out of filial piety. It's fine for you to come back in such a crazy way, but how good your nonsense can make others misunderstand your son's good intentions." " Ning Huayang was quick to react, knowing that going on like this would be very bad for him, he immediately changed his face, and locked Wu's arm with both hands, making her unable to move, and said to Jing Zhaoyin with a smile : "I'm sorry, my lord. I didn't tell the public because I was concerned about my mother's reputation, but now I can't say it now. In fact, since my niece Shanshan had an accident, my mother's mental state has not been good. Later, something happened to Zhongkun again, and my mother completely collapsed, talking nonsense all day long in the house, constantly saying that someone was going to harm her. I also invited a doctor to come and treat her, and the doctor said that my mother had lost her heart. Crazy, I sent her out of the city to recuperate, so that my mother can recover soon, but the symptoms became more and more serious, which made Master Jing Zhaoyin laugh!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Wu showed an unbelievable expression, her face was twisted to the extreme, "Well, you bastard! You're just a wolf, and you dare to call me a lunatic! Do you think others will believe it!"

"Mother, you have made enough trouble. Don't continue to embarrass yourself here. You should go in and rest quickly." Ning Huayang's face was gloomy, and he turned his head to look at Ning Yicai. Ning Yicai immediately stepped forward, wanting to help Let Ning Huayang pull Wu's family to the mansion.

"Wait a minute." Sikongxuan suddenly stopped the two of them, "Master Ning, what the Duke's wife said just now is of great importance to the palace, so it is better for her to speak clearly."

"Your Highness Six is ​​too worried." Ning Huayang opened his mouth and laughed, "The official has already said that my mother has lost her mind, and all she said is nonsense. Could it be that His Highness takes the nonsense seriously?"

"Whether Mrs. Guogong is insane, and whether she is talking nonsense, it cannot be determined by Mrs. Ning's one-sided words." Sikongxuan looked at Ning Huayang's flustered eyes, and naturally he would not let this opportunity go, "Mrs. Guogong Whether it is really sick or not, it doesn’t matter what other people say, only what the doctor says. It just so happens that the Imperial Physician Xu in the palace is taking care of the Duke’s body in his belly. Seeing whether Madam has really lost her mind, what does Lord Jing Zhaoyin think?"

"This is what I mean as well." Jing Zhaoyin had received a little favor from Ning Huayang in the past, so before coming to the Duke's mansion, he was a little biased towards Ning Huayang, believing that he has nothing to do with the case.It's a pity that from just now to the present, all the unreasonable things he saw in Ning Guogong's mansion, as well as all kinds of far-fetched remarks made by Ning Huayang, made him feel that Ning Huayang was mocking him, Jing Zhaoyin's brain After all, he is Jing Zhaoyin who has investigated many cases. He is not an idiot after sitting in this position for many years. He is already dissatisfied with Ning Huayang's repeated sophistry and perfunctory attitude. It is also my responsibility to find out the truth of the matter, so I said: "Master Ning, I'm sorry, as Jing Zhaoyin, I have the obligation to find out the truth of her accusation after hearing the complaint from the Duke's wife. Before verifying whether Mrs. Guo is really insane, I cannot allow you to take her away."

After Jing Zhaoyin's words fell, the attendants he brought also stepped forward, trying to help Mrs. Wu over, Ning Huayang's eyes twitched, and he said after a long while: "If that's the case... there's nothing wrong with it." Then he reluctantly said Let go of your hands, and let them help Wu Shi over.

But this is not over yet, Jing Zhaoyin said to another follower: "Go back to the Yamen quickly, and bring more people to guard the front, back and side doors of the Duke's Mansion. Without the permission of the official, no one is allowed to go out." government."

Ning Huayang's face turned crooked when he heard it, but he still suppressed his tone and said: "What is the meaning of Mr. Jing Zhaoyin! I don't know if you have the right to hold the mansion of a first-rank official now!"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ning. When Jing Zhaoyin's yamen handles cases, regardless of their rank, they are all business-like. I also want to be safe. If Mr. Ning is magnanimous, naturally there is nothing to be afraid of." Jing Zhaoyin finished. , no longer looked at Ning Huayang, turned around and went back to the Duke's Mansion, obviously planning to go to that Imperial Physician Xu to find out if Mrs. Wu is really "crazy".

Ning Huayang looked at his back, his usually calm face finally seemed to be unsteady anymore, his teeth were clenched, and a few drops of sweat dripped from his forehead.

****

Ning Yicai went back to his room lightly, the maid who was cleaning the room saw him, hurriedly saluted, and asked curiously: "Isn't the young master entertaining guests with the second master, why are you back?"

"This is my room, so of course I can come back whenever I want, what's the point of talking so much nonsense." Ning Yicai suddenly yelled at the servant girl with an unkind expression, "It's none of your business here, go out , No one is allowed to come in without orders."

That servant girl has been serving Ning Yicai all the time, she has only seen the elegant side of this young master before, she has never seen him look so vicious, she couldn't help being startled, she timidly said good, and buried her Heading out of the room, Ning Yi saw that the girl had gone far away, so he immediately walked to the door, looked outside, left and right, saw that no one was paying attention to him, quickly closed the door, and then quickly spread a piece of baggage on the bed Cloth, took out a wooden box from the cabinet, opened the box cover, there was a thick stack of dense banknotes inside, he nodded roughly, and wrapped it with a few plain and unremarkable clothes, lying on the bed It became a big burden, and when I carried it on my shoulders, I had to go out again.

It's just that when he opened the door again, he couldn't get out. A strong man blocked the door, completely blocking his way.

"Ning Lie?" Ning Yicai narrowed his eyes, and sneered, "You, a brat who eats everything else, still wants to come to see me?" Seeing that the person blocking him was Ning Lie, and then thinking that his own brother was actually the same The sixth prince, Sikongxuan, conspired to set him a trap, so he was angry and rude, "I don't have time to talk to you right now, get out of the way quickly, don't block my way!"

"Father and everyone else are in grandfather's house. Brother didn't go there to accompany him, so he suddenly came back to the house to do something." After Ning Lie said this sentence slowly, he turned his eyes to the ambition that Ning Yicai carried on his shoulders. Come on, raised eyebrows, "Brother packed up things, where are you going?"

"Where are you going? You have the nerve to ask me?" Ning Yicai became annoyed by Ning Lie's eccentric tone, pointed to his nose and said, "If it wasn't for you, who is a foodie, and joined forces with outsiders to plot For me, my father and I will end up in this situation? Thanks to me, I always thought that although you have no brains, you are also a good and obedient brother. Who knew that you hid it so deeply! You thought you would expose me and my father. , will this country's government fall on your head, you think it is beautiful!"

Ning Yicai thought that the reason why Ning Lie tampered with medicinal materials was because of his desire for fame and fortune, but Ning Lie smiled and shook his head after listening, "Brother made a mistake, although I am Your brother, but don't think of me as differently as you, I will not be so vulgar as to push my relatives to die for a little fame and fortune."

"Sound so high-sounding, don't put gold on your face! You are pushing my father and me to die!" Ning Yi let out a low growl, then looked around vigilantly, and then said: "Let me go down first!" Kung Fu is playing tricks on you, we will settle this account tomorrow, you get out of the way now, I want to leave the mansion immediately, lest the people sent by Jing Zhaoyin block the door and even want to leave."

"Let's go? Brother, you are an official of the imperial court. If you have an official position, you are not allowed to leave the capital without being dispatched. Where are you going?" Ning Lie said, suddenly showing an expression of enlightenment, "Ah, could it be, Are you trying to escape?"

Ning Yicai's face froze when the word "escape" was said, he was so big, even though he was a bastard, he was still the eldest son of a bastard, and he had never been in such a mess before, but it was helpless, because Ning Yi faintly felt that Well, if he doesn't leave now, then maybe he won't have the chance to leave again.

Mrs. Wu has already been brought back to the mansion, and there is also an imperial physician for diagnosis and treatment. Once the imperial physician asserts that Mrs. Wu is sane, then all the allegations made by her Duke's wife against their father and son will be confirmed, and there is no need to deal with the matter of poisoning. Just being a aunt under house arrest, committing such crimes as treason and injustice, is enough for them to be exiled for three thousand miles!

Since Ning Yicai has an official position, he naturally knows how terrifying the punishment of exile is. He lacks food and clothing along the way, not to mention being exposed to the sun and cold. The escort officers sometimes torture prisoners for fun, anyway, no one cares about these The life and death of the exiled prisoners, especially those who are used to being pampered in Huajing, how can they stand the dangerous environment, once they embark on the road of exile, their lives will probably be gone.

Ning Yi didn't just sit and wait for death, so he quietly went back to the room, packed his clothes and money and planned to run away, even if he hid his money in a corner and lived his whole life incognito, it was better than dying on the road of exile.

But obviously, his own younger brother in front of him didn't quite agree with his idea of ​​running away.

"I advise you, brother, to put your things down." Ning Lie said quietly, "It's really unreasonable to leave everything to my father alone. It would be great if my father knew about it."

"I told you to get out of the way, didn't you hear me!" Ning Yi was a little anxious, and if he didn't leave, it would be too late when the people sent by Jing Zhaoyin really blocked the gate of the mansion. Seeing that Ning Lie had no intention of giving way at all, As soon as Ning Yicai gritted his teeth, he clenched his fist and punched Ning Lie in the chest.

Ning Yicai did practice self-defense skills, but compared to Ning Lie, who was an officer, he was not very impressive. Ning Lie took advantage of the opportunity to grab the fist, and cut back at Ning Yicai's back. Kneeling on the ground, the burden on his shoulders also fell, scattered and fell to the ground, and the banknotes inside floated all over the place.

"Since my brother doesn't want to take the initiative to go to my father, I have no choice but to take my brother with me." Ning Lie didn't care about Ning Yicai's resentful eyes, "My brother has always been close to my father, and he is also a filial son in my father's eyes. How good it would be to lose the chain at a critical moment and run away alone without father." After saying that, he escorted him like this, and walked towards Duke Ning's bedroom.

Ning Yicai struggled desperately, but it didn't help at all. He could only curse angrily. The second young master is clearly a biological brother, so the eldest young master scolded the second young master like this, and even greeted the ancestors, isn't it the same as scolding himself?

On the other side, in the outer hall of Duke Ningguo's bedroom, the green smoke from the incense burner is curling up, exuding a burst of peaceful scent, but compared with that scent, the current atmosphere in the room is obviously much more tense The imperial doctor Xu from the palace stood in front of Mrs. Wu. He first observed the color, then checked the pulse, and finally spoke to her a few words before standing up and saying to Sikong Xu and Jing Zhaoyin: "Mrs. Guo is conscious and normal. No signs of insanity."

Doctor Xu's words are tantamount to setting the world. If Wu's mind is clear, it means that her accusation against Ning Huayang is credible. Her aunt was forced by Ning Huayang against her will. sent out of town.

"I just said that I am not crazy, and I hope Mr. Jing Zhaoyin will give me justice!" Mrs. Wu may have been tired from tossing outside the mansion before, but now she has no strength, so she pretended to be weak and sat there wiping her face. tears.

Jing Zhaoyin frowned, looking at Ning Huayang who had been standing aside, "Master Ning, what else do you have to say?"

"I... It's really just for the good of my mother." At this point, Ning Huayang really has no other way but to force himself to calm down, "Mother was stimulated too much before, and her mood was obviously a little unstable. Now that she is normal, Presumably it was recuperating outside the city that he was able to recover..."

"It's really full of nonsense. Do you think I can allow you to stay in this house after such a period of time!" Seeing that Ning Huayang's death was imminent, Mrs. Wu wanted to quibble and deny it. Jumped up, "No matter how much you deny it, this family can't tolerate you anymore, old lady, even if I try my best, I will throw you out of the house!"

"Mother, my father is still here. Even if I really want to kick me out of the house, I have to wait for my father to speak." Ning Huayang hardened his face, "After all, the person who decides in this family is still my father."

"Before, taking advantage of Ning Guogong's unconsciousness, he framed his son-in-law, forced his mother-in-law to leave, and single-handedly took over the power in the mansion. Now that his deeds have been revealed, the person in charge has turned into a prince again. It's really a good show." Sikong Xuan said calmly at the side, "If Master Ning's good intentions reach Father's ears, I don't know what Father will think." Therefore, what he hates the most is the scum like Ning Huayang who attacks his relatives, and he speaks very rudely.

"Lord Ning, this is the end of the matter, please follow me back to the yamen." Jing Zhaoyin said in a deep voice: "I will report this matter to the emperor truthfully, and I think His Majesty will have a holy order."

"No, I won't go anywhere until my father wakes up." Ning Huayang said, "Mother doesn't believe me, and I admit to accusing me of any crimes. It's just that my father hasn't woken up yet. As a son of man, I should do my best. My filial piety has not yet been fulfilled, I can't just leave like this, I hope Master Jing Zhaoyin will understand."

"You!" Mrs. Wu laughed angrily, and Sikong Xuan was also amazed at Ning Huayang's thick skin. When the matter developed to this point, I am afraid that anyone would confess to the crimes he committed, and Ning Hua was the one. Yang still stood there, and judging from what he said, it seemed that because his aunt Wu didn't like him, she was using an excuse to frame him.

The princess is framing him, the servants are framing him, the aunt is framing him, and now even the aunt is framing him, and everyone in the world is framing him... Sikong Xuan looked at Ning Huayang incredulously, only thinking that this man It seems to have become the largest white lotus in the world.

Jing Zhaoyin also couldn't laugh or cry, Ning Huayang's embarrassing kung fu was amazing to be able to deny it to this extent. He thought about it, if Ning Huayang insisted on not leaving, it would be difficult for him to force him if his official position was not as high as Ning Huayang's. People, Zuo Zuo himself has sent people to guard Ningguo Mansion, and people can't escape, so he went back first and asked the emperor for orders, and then came to lead people openly.
