The Return of the Demon

Chapter 340: One Move Can Break

After Li Zhixing came to his senses, he hurriedly said: "Master Hou, this is no joke? This is His Majesty's will."

He thought that Ning Chen was unwilling to hand over the person to him in order to protect Ning Ziming.

Ning Chen sighed and said, "Everything I said is true... If you don't believe me, just ask them."

Pan Yucheng and Gao Ziping nodded.

Li Zhixing's expression was stiff, "What...what the hell is going on?"

Ning Chen didn't hide anything, he told the story again!

Li Zhixing's face turned serious, "This matter is obviously directed at you."

Ning Chen nodded slightly.

"Master Hou, please take a step to speak!"

The two came to the yard.

Li Zhixing lowered his voice and said: "Master Marquis, this matter must be suppressed... Once word spreads, if you bear the bad name of patricide, it will not only affect your marriage with the princess, but also your future will be ruined."

"In this case, I will find a way to replace Master Ning with a death row prisoner..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Ning Chen waving his hand.

"I'm afraid it won't work. The identity will be verified when beheading. Once the matter is exposed, this is the crime of deceiving the emperor, and you will not be able to escape the blame!"

Li Zhixing said: "I will replace both the prisoner and the executioner with my people...I guarantee there will be no problem!"

Ning Chen smiled bitterly, "If the minister suddenly appears during the beheading day and wants to check his identity... what will you do?"

"This..." Li Zhixing was confused, "Why did Shangshu Ling do this?"

Ning Chen smiled and said, "I'm just making an analogy...without the Shangshu Ling, there will be other people showing up asking for identification."

Li Zhixing frowned, "What should we do?"

"Enter the palace to meet the saint and join me!"

Li Zhixing was shocked, "How can this be done?"

"Concealing it is a crime of deceiving the emperor, and you will be dragged into the water when the time comes...So, report the truth to Your Majesty! Go, Geng Ziyi has already entered the palace."

After seeing Li Zhixing off, Ning Chen's eyes turned cold.

The opponent's move was indeed cruel enough.

Not only did he want to ruin his reputation and ruin his future, he also wanted to drag down those who were close to him.

I thought that after taking care of the Queen and the Prime Minister, I could sit back and relax in the capital... I didn't expect that this person hiding in the dark would be even more hateful.

Who could this person be?

Shangshu Ling?

The fourth prince?

There is definitely something wrong with this Shangshu order.

The poison of the snake toad was directed at the fourth prince.

While Ning Chen was thinking, Feng Qizheng rushed in from outside the hospital with an angry look.

"Didn't I ask you to keep an eye on the shopkeeper of Tianfulou? What happened?"

Feng Qizheng said angrily: "Go to hell with the shopkeeper of Tianfulou... Something big happened, and now there are rumors outside that you are crazy and poisoned your own father in order to climb high, to marry the princess, and to show loyalty to His Majesty."

Pan Yucheng and Gao Ziping also heard it and walked out of the room with ugly expressions.

Gao Ziping said angrily: "Who the hell is spreading nonsense? Bring him back and let him taste the torture of the Supervision Department to see if he still dares to talk nonsense?"

Pan Yucheng's face was livid, "Three people turned into tigers. Killing your own father with poison is unacceptable... If it were completely spread, I'm afraid it would arouse public outrage."

"The hero of Daxuan will then become a crazy person... I'm afraid your marriage to the princess will be affected."

"Those who spread these rumors must be arrested... They cannot be allowed to confuse right and wrong and make false claims."

Ning Chen burst into laughter.

The three of them looked at him in astonishment.

They were almost dying of anxiety, but Ning Chen could still laugh?

Ning Chen smiled and said: "It is said that he has a nose and an eye... He poisoned his own father in order to marry the princess and get a high official and a good salary. This reason is quite valid."

Feng Qi was furious, "You, you can still laugh?"

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Crying can't solve the problem, right?"

Feng Qi was saying anxiously: "But we can't just sit back and let them talk nonsense? Ning Chen, you are smart, please think of a solution quickly."

Ning Chen smiled and said: "It's such a small trick, it can be defeated with one move!"

The three of them looked at him.

Pan Yucheng said: "Have you already had an idea?"

Ning Chen nodded.

"What can we do? Say it quickly!"

Ning Chen smiled and said: "Don't worry! How can they destroy my reputation with just a few words?"

"Old Pan, let all the red coats of the Supervision Department go out... Let them pretend to be ordinary people and secretly investigate the source of the rumors."

Pan Yucheng nodded, "What then?"

"Then?" Ning Chen thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then I'm going to the palace to be trained!"

"See you tonight, Jiaofang Secretary!"

Ning Chen waved his hands, shook his head and left.

Pan Yucheng and the other three were left looking at each other in confusion.

...

The Hall of Nourishing Heart!

Emperor Xuan frowned slightly.

Just after Geng Jing left in the afternoon, Li Zhixing came.

They both came for the same thing!

Emperor Xuan glanced at Quan Sheng, "What do you think?"

Eunuch Quan said hurriedly: "My servant is stupid and only knows how to take care of His Majesty. He doesn't know anything else... But I always feel that it is impossible for Lord Ning to do such a thing."

Emperor Xuan sneered, "Of course he won't do such a stupid thing... Ning Ziming will ask Zhan three days later. He will go and poison him at this time, unless he is mentally ill."

"I'm angry at the person who plotted against Ning Chen... He wants to ruin Ning Chen's reputation. It's so vicious!"

Eunuch Quan asked cautiously: "So, Lord Ning has been plotted against?"

Emperor Xuan said angrily: "You stupid fool, don't you understand this?"

"My servant is stupid, Your Majesty, calm down... Then, what should we do now?"

Emperor Xuan said in a deep voice: "I have ordered Geng Jing and Li Zhixing to investigate, and I must clear Ning Chen's name... Once I find the mastermind behind the scenes, I will skin him alive."

"How dare someone frame the son-in-law I personally selected... How abominable!"

At this time, a little eunuch walked in quietly, knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Ning wants to see you!"

Emperor Xuan was stunned for a moment, "Let him in!"

"Yes!"

The little eunuch retreated.

After a while, Ning Chen walked in.

"Minister, see Your Majesty!"

Emperor Xuan had a stern face, "You still have the nerve to come to see me... Don't you claim to be smart? How did you get tricked?"

Ning Chen's mouth twitched.

Even tigers take naps sometimes, okay?

He often went to Tianfulou for dinner, and only a fool would think of going to Tianfulou to pack some food on a whim, but it turned out to be poisoned.

"I know I was wrong, please calm down, Your Majesty!"

Ning Chen looked obedient, "Your Majesty, don't you suspect that I poisoned Ning Ziming?"

Emperor Xuan subconsciously grabbed the teacup on the table, and Ning Chen subconsciously dodged.

Who knew that Emperor Xuan just took a sip.

Emperor Xuan said unhappily: "What are you twisting and turning for?"

Ning Chen: "???"

Fuck! ! !

You clearly wanted to hit me with the teacup just now, don't think I didn't see it... Ning Chen complained in his heart.

"I have asked Geng Jing and Li Zhixing to investigate with all their strength, and they will definitely clear your name... Be more careful in the future, and don't let me worry about your trivial matters every day."

Ning Chen looked honest, "I am terrified! Your Majesty is really observant, and you can see at a glance that I am wronged."

Emperor Xuan's face twitched slightly, "Except for a dull-headed person like Quan Sheng, who can't see that you are wronged?"

Eunuch Quan: "..."

Ning Chen looked at Eunuch Quan who was innocently caught in the crossfire, and wanted to laugh.

Emperor Xuan said: "I have already issued an order to suppress this matter... You should also start investigating yourself. This person has ulterior motives, and you must find him out as soon as possible to prevent the news from spreading and the people from blindly believing it without knowing the truth."

Ning Chen smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, the news has spread!

"What?"

Emperor Xuan was startled, and his face suddenly became gloomy.
