Chapter 1055: Poor Man
Song Ruyi was dragged down.
Ning Chen frowned and remained silent.
No one dared to disturb him. The matter involved Emperor An, and what to do was beyond their control.
But are Zisu and Yudie really members of the All Nations?
Will they really harm An Di?
Harming Emperor An means harming Ning Chen.
Not to mention that Ning Chen didn't believe it, even Feng Qizheng and others didn't believe it.
Feng Qizheng said in a low voice: "I think this Song Ruyi is just a mad dog biting and trying to sow discord."
Everyone nodded.
Yudie and Zisu knew each other well, so it was just a matter of saying that they were members of the All Nations Congress, and they also said that they would harm Ning Chen. This was simply outrageous.
Ning Chen looked at Xiao Yanxi, "Is there any news from the capital recently?"
Xiao Yanxi shook her head, "I'll go out and talk about it when I get back."
Ning Chen hummed, she knew that Xiao Yanxi was going to collect information.
"Lao Pan, Lao Feng, get ready...leave back to Beijing tomorrow!"
Feng Qizheng said: "Do you really believe what Song Ruyi said?"
Ning Chen glared at him, "It's not that I believed Song Ruyi's words, but that we should have returned to Beijing.
In addition, what I am worried about is not that Zisu and Yudie will harm His Majesty, but that someone will frame them.
Since Kang Xiao is from the Ten Thousand Nations Congress, Kang Luo must also be... They are no match for us on the battlefield, and they will definitely try to deal with me in a cunning way.
Kang Xiao was thinking deeply. He could think of a way to poison him, but how could he keep half of the secret message when he burned it? I guess he deliberately let Song Ruyi see it. "
Pan Yucheng asked curiously: "Then what is his purpose for doing this?"
Ning Chen said in a deep voice: "Of course it is to plant the seeds of doubt in our hearts so that we can sow discord in the future... Think about it, if someone plots to murder His Majesty and puts the blame on Zisu and Yudie, what will we think?
At that time, the seeds of doubt planted by Kang Xiao in us will take root and sprout.
If someone confirms their identity as members of the National Congress at this time, even if His Majesty is lenient, the courtiers will not give up. After all, murdering His Majesty is a capital crime.
They are my concubines, and this matter will inevitably involve me... Then I will have to find a way to prove Zisu and Yudie's innocence, and I will have to stay in the capital. I will not be able to go out to conquer the Eastern Territory and attack South Vietnam in the short term. Destroy Xiliang.
And they will have the time and opportunity to develop and grow. "
Feng Qizheng said angrily: "These grandsons are so damn insidious. They have the ability to compete on the battlefield. What are their abilities to make these plotters plot?"
Ning Chen smiled and said: "War is never limited to the battlefield, the conspiracy and calculation behind it is also a part of war.
For example, if Beilin Pass is guarded by Liang Jingwu and Tuoluo Kingdom cannot cross Beilin Pass, what should we do? "
Pan Yucheng's eyes lit up, "I understand...the problem lies with Liang Jingwu, so whether it's a plot or a frame-up by the Tuoluo Kingdom, as long as Liang Jingwu is killed, they will have succeeded in crossing the Beiling Pass."
Ning Chen nodded, "Yes, a thousand armies are easy to obtain, but good generals are hard to find... Kill a general and destroy an army.
They are no match for us on the battlefield, so they will definitely use some dirty tricks to divide us or get rid of us. "
Feng Qi was patting his chest and said, "Don't worry, no matter what others say to me, I won't believe it. I only believe in you. No one can try to sow discord between us."
Ning Chen raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said with a smile: "Actually, the smarter the person, the easier it is to be provoked. You...I don't..."
Before the word "worry" came out of his mouth, Feng Qizheng shouted, "No way, although I am smart, I will never be provoked by others... Whoever dares to provoke our relationship, I will twist off his head and won't be able to say anything." Let’s see how he provokes it?”
Ning Chen: "......"
He gave a thumbs up and said, "What a great idea. Feng is so smart."
Feng Qizheng's face was filled with embarrassment.
Ning Chen turned to look at Pan Yucheng, "Old Pan, are Ning Mao and Ning Xing involved in this matter?"
Pan Yucheng shook his head, "No, the two of them don't know Song Ruyi's true identity at all.
I interrogated Song Ruyi and she said..."
Ning Chen asked: "Don't hesitate like a woman. What did she say?"
Pan Yucheng said: "She thinks Ning Mao is too stupid and is afraid that Ning Mao will ruin her plan."
The corners of Ning Chen's mouth twitched fiercely, feeling a little confused about whether to laugh or cry.
Pan Yucheng continued: "After Ning Mao learned Song Ruyi's identity, he burst into tears."
Ning Chen frowned slightly, "This useless thing."
Pan Yucheng said: "It's not that he can't bear to leave Song Ruyi. He's crying because he was defrauded of all his money."
Ning Chen was startled, "What's going on?"
"Ning Mao was a prisoner before and was pardoned by you when he was building Xuanwu City. He managed to save more than a hundred taels of silver in the past two years to prepare for a wife and children. However, the silver was given to Song Ruyi. Now he has lost both his life and property.
Song Ruyi was a very clever woman. Ning Mao was not the only one who was deceived. Many merchants in the city were defrauded by Song Ruyi. It was roughly estimated that the amount was hundreds of thousands taels. However, those merchants felt embarrassed and did not say a word. They pinched their noses and admitted. "
Ning Chen hurriedly asked: "What about the money that Song Ruyi defrauded?"
Pan Yucheng said: "It has been transferred out. I have sent people to trace it, but it is unlikely to bring it back."
Ning Chen's face was gloomy, "This World Congress is not simple. It has not only infiltrated the royal families of various countries, but also the people below are amassing money... It is difficult to deal with people who are rich, powerful and powerful."
Ning Chen gathered his thoughts and said, "Bring Ning Xing and Ning Mao to me."
"yes!"
Pan Yucheng immediately sent someone to do it.
After an incense stick, Ning Xing and Ning Mao were brought in.
The two were so scared that they knelt down and trembled all over, their faces pale.
Especially Ning Mao, he was so scared that his soul was out of his body. It was he who brought Song Ruyi to the City Lord's Mansion, which gave Song Ruyi the opportunity to harm Ning Chen.
His wife was gone, his money was gone, and he would not even lose his life, would he?
Ning Chen looked at Ning Mao, who looked so miserable, and he could not bear to scold him. He felt a little sympathy for him. What a pitiful man.
"Ning Mao, Ning Xing... I just interrogated Song Ruyi, and she said that you two were the ones who ordered the murder of me."
Ning Xing and Ning Mao were almost scared to death.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... We are innocent. We dare not murder you even if we have the courage to do so."
"Your Majesty, please understand. This bitch slandered us. I can confront her face to face. She not only cheated me of my feelings, but also cheated me of more than 100 taels of silver. She is a liar. Her words cannot be trusted."
Ning Chen almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
Ning Mao had a heavy grudge against Song Ruyi.
Ning Chen said, "Okay, both of you get up... It's really embarrassing to have the same surname as you two.
Old Pan, ask the accountant to pay Ning Mao 200 taels of silver.
In the future, open your eyes when looking for a woman. There are many ladies in the city. Don't take any messy stuff as true love."
Pan Yucheng leaned over, "Yes!"
Ning Xing and Ning Mao were stunned. This... Is this forgiving them?
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty..."
After coming to their senses, the two were ecstatic and grateful.
Especially Ning Mao, his smile was as beautiful as a chrysanthemum. He didn't expect that not only did he not have to die, but Ning Chen also gave him two hundred taels of silver... After all, they are brothers, and even if their bones are broken, their tendons are still connected.
