I'll tell you the secret and let's laugh together!

Since you said that I knew about General Li’s past in advance, then I would say that you have investigated him thoroughly.

Ning Zhiyi was almost about to ask the old Taoist priest Yin Yang Qingzhen to receive General Li's details in advance.

What he said were things that could be easily checked and could not be used to prove anything.

Fortunately, Emperor Mu Wu understood this tacitly and did not dwell on this issue. If he had not wanted to play the long game and catch a bigger fish, the Taoist priest Qingzhen would have been dragged down and beheaded long ago!

"I just want to ask General Li one question. I wonder if General Li can sleep peacefully at night?"

"Do you often wake up from nightmares?"

General Li's face turned pale and he looked at Ning Zhiyi in horror.

"Zhiyi, what's going on? As the saying goes, if you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door. Why can't General Li sleep well at night? Could it be that he has done something wrong?"

The second prince asked with great interest.

"no!"

"What nonsense!"

General Li answered very stiffly, his face was pale, his pupils were trembling, and only he knew the panic in his heart.

"Can I really sleep peacefully all night? Won't I dream about my comrades who died tragically?"

"General Li is really good at this. When faced with danger, he actually pushed his comrade-in-arms, who was like a brother to him, into the enemy's sharp knife in order to save his own life!"

"It's a pity that those soldiers never guarded against you. They regarded you as a good brother, but you sent them to death when they were completely defenseless!"

'Nonsense, you are talking nonsense! '

"I...I have never done anything like this!"

"Of course you can deny it, but why not look back, maybe there will be a surprise!"

Ning Zhiyi lowered her voice and spoke softly.

When Ning Zhiyi heard the system tell her this, she was almost angry to death.

She had never realized that General Li was such a person before. He was so good at disguise!

He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looks quite handsome if you look closely. It is hard to imagine that he could do such a vicious thing as letting his comrades die in his place!

【Tong'er, it's now! 】

General Li turned his head slowly with a stiff neck, and what he saw was a row of more than a dozen familiar figures.

They remained in the same state as they were when they died, looking at him with lifeless eyes and pale faces.

Just like the scene that appeared in his dreams countless times!

"Ah, don't come over here, don't come over here, I didn't mean it!"

"I have old people to take care of, young children to take care of, and a whole family to support. I really can't die. Please forgive me. In the next life, I will work like a slave to repay you!"

"Since we enlisted together, please forgive me this time!"

"How dare you, you son of a bitch, harm our brothers!"

The angry voice of the mighty general was heard, and several soldiers rushed onto the stage regardless of anything, kicked General Li away, and then a group fight ensued!

Emperor Muwu looked cold, and did not stop the actions of the few people. He turned his head and said to Eunuch Quanzhi:

"Break apart!"

"The slave obeys the order!"

When General Li was taken away by Eunuch Quanzhi, several men led by the mighty general followed him and continued to beat and kick him.

"Master Qingzhen, could you please tell me what future the guilty minister Li Fei has?"

Hearing Emperor Mu Wu's question, Taoist Priest Qingzhen fell to his knees on the ground. He, he didn't know either. He just said what he was told before!

"I'm a poor Taoist... I'm a poor Taoist..."

Taoist Priest Qingzhen subconsciously wanted to look at the man beside King Zhenbei, but after being glared at fiercely by the man, he withdrew his gaze in dismay.

"Your Majesty, it may be that I am not proficient in Taoism and have made a mistake. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

"Drag him away and give him fifty lashes!"

"Ah? Your Majesty, please spare me, Your Majesty, please spare me!"

Seeing the old Taoist being dragged away, Ning Zhiyi felt calm and wanted to say, "He deserves it."

You were allowed to go out and cheat people. Over the years, I don’t know how many people you have cheated and how many families you have harmed!

It can be said that Ning Zhiyi broke the three tricks of the Taoist priest Qingzhen. King Zhenbei drank tea calmly and never looked at the Taoist priest Qingzhen who was dragged away. He was very composed.

"The man recommended by the Prince of Zhenbei was dragged away and punished. Yes, he dared to show off his skills in front of the emperor with such a small trick. He really doesn't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. However, won't the prince plead for your man?"

"General Ning is really a joker. Taoist Qingzhen is really capable. No one is perfect. It is normal to make small mistakes occasionally. Although he is recommended by the king, he is not his man."

King Zhenbei continued:

"I recommended him because I admire talents and want to recommend a capable person to the emperor."

No matter how the King of Zhenbei responded, Ning Shengan had something waiting for him.

"Oh, so you wanted to recommend a talented person to the emperor. Unfortunately, this person is not a talented person, but just a half-baked liar. King Zhenbei, you have a very poor vision!"

"General Ning is right."

The farce caused by Taoist Priest Qingzhen and General Li gradually subsided. The banquet was filled with singing and dancing, and everyone was talking and laughing, as if nothing had happened before.

After the show, Ning Zhiyi and Du Shaoyun took the same carriage.

"Sister Shaoyun, has something happened? You seem to be in a bad mood today."

Du Shaoyun was obviously thinner than a few days ago. When he heard Ning Zhiyi's question, his eyes quickly turned red.

"Zhiyi...my father, my father is injured. I don't know what he has been busy with during this period. He has been leaving early and coming back late. A few days ago, he even went out of the capital to work. But what we didn't expect was that he was fine when he left, but came back with injuries!"

"The court doctor said that my father's condition is not good. Fortunately, the emperor sent a royal doctor to treat my father, but the royal doctor is not sure when my father will wake up."

"Sister Shaoyun, please don't cry yet. Uncle Du is a lucky man. He will be fine."

[Tong'er, check on Uncle Du's injuries. If necessary, give him some luck and save him! ]

System: [Host, Du Cheng is following the Emperor's orders to investigate the inside story of the war in which my parents were in trouble. The Emperor has always suspected that a major emergency had occurred in that battle and believes that someone must be secretly doing something.]

【So the order given to Morito is to find out the truth at all costs! 】

[So that's how it is. Uncle Du is in such a bad condition, is his life in danger?]

[Host, rest assured, I have protected Du Ting's heart, nothing will happen to him! ]

Ning Zhiyi let out a breath and continued to comfort Du Shaoyun. Just as the carriage was about to enter the Du Mansion, someone suddenly jumped out and stopped the carriage.

"Ms. Fang, get off the carriage!"

"I am the Du family's aunt, what qualifications do you have to stop me from entering the mansion?"

"Let me in. I want to find my father. He will definitely give me justice!"

After just a few days of not seeing each other, Du Song looked as if a demon had sucked away all his energy. His eye sockets were sunken and his hair was messy, completely different from his previous delicate appearance.

The maid opened the carriage curtain, and Fang looked at Du Song with a frown.

"That's right, I ordered you to do that. My purpose is to prevent you from entering the Du Mansion. What can you do to me?"

"Fang, you!"

The maid lowered the curtain and the carriage started slowly again.

"Wait, wait, sister-in-law, it's my fault. I shouldn't have yelled at you. Please don't bear grudges. Let me in."

"The Du Mansion is also my home, how can you not let me go home!"

Ning Zhiyi noticed that there were several horse-drawn carriages parked in the corner on one side of the Du Mansion, and the carriages were loaded with many things.

"Sister Shaoyun, why does it feel like Du Song is about to move? Could she be planning to move back to the Du Mansion and live there for a while?"

Du Shaoyun retracted his gaze, "No, she doesn't want to stay for a while, but wants to live in the Du Mansion for a long time."

"What? Staying here for a long time, doesn't that mean..."

Du Shaoyun nodded affirmatively, "That's right, the Li family divorced her!"

"My mother has been sending people to guard the Li Mansion. As soon as she heard the news, she ordered the servants in the mansion not to let Du Song enter the Du Mansion, and not to let anyone tip off the old man!"

Du Shaoyun did not regard Ning Zhiyi as an outsider, and said:

"My grandfather lost his mind when he encountered the matter of my aunt and second uncle. My mother replaced all the people around my grandfather. Now as long as my mother disagrees, the old man will never know her situation."

"Beautiful, Auntie did a great job!"

"This is how you deal with evil people!"

"Sister-in-law, I beg you, please let me go home, I beg you!"

"Sister-in-law, I kowtow to you, kowtow to you!"

Fang was extremely annoyed. "That's enough. No matter how much trouble you make, I won't let you go back to the Du Mansion. Your brother's home is in another alley. Go find him."

"After all, what happened last time was closely related to him. Now you have ended up like this. You two have a deep relationship as siblings, so he will not ignore you!"

The housekeeper of the Du Mansion rushed over and ordered the servant to pull Du Song out of the way so that the carriage could enter the Du Mansion smoothly.

"Sister Shaoyun, what about Li Ru? How is she?"

Speaking of Li Ru, this person is quite difficult to deal with.

"She is fine. I just heard that Madam Li refused to let her go back to the Li Mansion. It is said that Madam Ji gave Li Ru a few mild reprimands and then the matter was dropped."

Ning Zhiyi touched her hair and said, "Well, Li Ru is the legitimate daughter and the elder sister of Master Li. I guess Madam Li won't be able to control her for long. After a while, Li Ru will probably be able to enter and leave the Li Mansion normally."

Du Shaoyun smiled and said, "That's what I guessed too. We both thought of the same thing."

"Sister Shaoyun, the eldest princess of Feng Country will be here tomorrow. Let's go to the street to watch the fun. There will definitely be a banquet in the palace tonight. We should sit together this time."

Du Shaoyun and Fang arrived too late today, and since Ning Zhiyi was accompanied by other people, the two did not sit together.

"Okay, tomorrow will definitely be very lively. I heard that the women of Feng Country are completely different from the women of Dali. I wonder what they are like?"

Ever since receiving the imperial gift from the eldest princess of Feng Kingdom, Feng Kingdom and its customs have become the topic of conversation among the people of Dali after dinner.

Upon hearing that women were in power in Feng Country, some men were very disdainful and mocked that the men of Feng Country were all weaklings who could be suppressed by a group of women.

The second person was that the streets were crowded with people, and everyone wanted to see the people of Feng Country. Women wanted to see the women of Feng Country, and men wanted to see the men of Feng Country.

As time went by, noise gradually broke out from the crowd. A long line of carriages were seen coming from a distance. The first few carriages were extremely luxurious, covered with gems and gold, as if they wanted to inlay all the valuable things on the carriages.

"Is Fengguo so rich?"

"All the guards are women. Where are the men? Where have the men of Feng Country gone?"

"The girls from Feng Country are so heroic. I don't think they are as pretty as the girls from Dali."

The people of Dali believe that women should be gentle and beautiful, while the women of Feng Kingdom wear armor, have cold faces, and give off a sense of "keep away from strangers".

Upstairs, Ning Zhiyi, Du Shaoyun, Du Shaofeng, Ning Yuanyi and Ning Yuanzhi were sitting by the window looking down.

"Wow, Sister Shaoyun, I think I can definitely become good friends with the eldest princess of Feng Kingdom."

Du Shaoyun looked back at Ning Zhiyi, and seeing her looking at the big gem on the carriage with shining eyes, he smiled and poked her head.

"You, little money-grubber, can you give Sister Shaoyun some when the time comes?"

Ning Zhiyi answered very straightforwardly, "Of course, but you should know that I will only share it with my family."

Du Shaofeng: "Just give it to your family."

Ning Yuanzhi: "Family."

The two young men repeated Ning Zhiyi's words in a strange tone, which made Du Shaoyun blush.

After Du Song's interference, Ning Yuanyi asked Ning Yuanze to find a matchmaker to go to the Du Mansion to propose marriage. However, at this time, the rules are that you propose and I decline, you propose and I decline again, and so on. Only on the third time will the woman agree.

Currently, the two are still in the contact stage. Fortunately, Mu has returned and can take care of the rest of the matters.

Du Shaoyun lowered his head, not daring to look up because of the teasing.

Ning Yuanyi raised his eyebrows, raised his hand and gave each of them a slap on the face.

"You two are hurting my eyes!"

"How can you look at the eldest princess of the Phoenix Kingdom when you are making so much noise?"

The duo who were beaten rubbed their heads, but dared not say a word.

Ning Yuanzhi looked at Ning Zhiyi pitifully, and his black and white eyes clearly said: Sister, punish him!

Du Shaofeng pouted his lips and whined, but he is the brother-in-law. Don’t brothers-in-law have any special privileges these days?

murmured:

"Hmph, hit me and I'll mess you up."

"I don't agree with this marriage!"

Ning Yuanyi's body stiffened. Oh my god, how could he forget about this guy?

"Hahaha, Brother Du, it's okay. I'll help you vent your anger. Third brother, are you sure you want to see the eldest princess of Feng Kingdom?" Ning Zhiyi deliberately provoked.

"Sister Shaoyun, we won't hinder Third Brother from seeing the Princess of Phoenix Country. Let's go!"

Ning Yuanyi: ???

He just wanted to find an excuse to beat someone up, not to see the Phoenix Kingdom's eldest princess.

"Third brother is wrong, you just stay here."

Ning Yuanyi gritted his teeth.

Ning Zhiyi winked at the duo who were beaten. They were happy and overjoyed. You allowed us to bully us, huh, but we have someone backing us up!
