Chapter 384 Ning Chen Must Die

"In fact, we can try to win over Ning Chen. He is indeed a talent. It would be a pity to kill him!"

In the secret room, the old man over fifty said.

The fat white young man fiddled with the dessert plate and chuckled.

After a while, he slowly said: "Now put away your cherishing of talent. Ning Chen must die."

The old man over fifty was puzzled.

The fat white young man sneered, "This person's thinking is different from that of ordinary people, and there are too many variables."

"I asked Li Hongzhuo to try to win him over with the story between him and the Empress of Wu...but the result was that Li Hongzhuo's entire family was executed, and Song Tiancheng was uprooted."

"I don't know if you have noticed that anyone who goes against him has a miserable ending...The Queen, Prince Fu, Zuo Xiang and others, which one is not in a high position and has great power?"

"So, this person can't be kept!"

The fat white young man paused and continued: "He was made a marquis at the age of sixteen, a second-rank general, with outstanding military exploits, and deeply loved by the people...If he marries the Ninth Princess, Ning Chen can be said to be extremely powerful."

"I don't have the confidence to control this person...I am not His Majesty, who is magnanimous and can tolerate a person who has no respect for the imperial power."

"If Ning Chen has a child with the Ninth Princess, the future emperor of Daxuan is very likely to be this child."

The eyes of the old man over fifty years old shrank violently and nodded slightly.

He said slowly: "If you can think of this, your majesty should be able to think of it too."

The fat young man waved his hand, "You are wrong! Your majesty treats Ning Chen differently, and Ning Chen treats your majesty differently."

"Let me tell you this, your majesty and Ning Chen are not like monarchs and ministers, but more like fathers and sons... When your majesty is in power, Ning Chen will not rebel. If your majesty is gone, it's hard to say."

The old man over fifty nodded slightly, "Indeed, your majesty and Ning Chen have long surpassed the relationship between monarchs and ministers."

The fat young man looked sinister: "So, Ning Chen must die! Anyway, I dare not use this person, and I am not sure I can control him."

"I have been playing dumb for so long, and I don't want to ruin things because of Ning Chen."

The old man over fifty nodded slightly: "I will send more people to ensure that Ning Chen will not arrive in Xiuzhou alive."

......

Four or five days passed in a flash.

Because Ning Chen was not in a hurry to travel, he was still halfway to Xiuzhou.

In front of the fire, Ning Chen carried dry food on a branch and roasted it by the fire.

Feng Qizheng sat opposite, gnawing on dried meat and holding a water bag in one hand... No, it was a wine bag.

When Ning Chen left the capital, he brought more than a dozen jars of fairy dew.

On the way, Feng Qizheng had already drunk two jars.

This clever guy quietly poured out the water in the water bag and replaced it with wine, thinking that no one knew.

Feng Qizheng took a bite of meat and a sip of wine, his face full of enjoyment... He was even more proud in his heart, because no one knew that he had replaced his water with wine.

After a while, Ning Chen pushed the extinguished fire aside, dug up the ground, and dug out a big mud ball.

The surface of the mud ball was cracked, and Ning Chen tapped it lightly with a dagger, and the mud broke.

A strong meaty aroma filled the air.

Inside was a fragrant roasted pheasant.

"Oh my... It smells delicious, how to eat it?"

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Beggar chicken!"

As he said that, he tore off two chicken legs and gave them to Zi Su and Yu Die.

Feng Qi was drooling, "Leave the chicken butt to me."

Ning Chen: "......."

Ning Chen tore a chicken wing for him.

"Eat more, you will have the strength to fight when you are full."

Feng Qi was puzzled, "What fight?"

"Who?"

Gu Yichun, who was in charge of the alert, suddenly shouted loudly.

Ning Chen looked over and saw twenty or thirty people in black rushing out of the woods in the distance.

These people moved quickly and were obviously masters.

Ning Chen pointed and said with a smile: "Just fight with them."

Feng Qi stood up, "Who are these people?"

Ning Chen said calmly: "People who come to kill me."

"Don't steal my chicken butt."

Feng Qi stood up and pulled out the rebar inserted next to him.

Ning Chen smiled and said: "Okay, I'll leave it for you!"

Feng Qi rushed towards the man in black with the rebar.

Both sides didn't talk much and started fighting directly.

These killers were very skilled and ruthless.

A killer swung his knife towards Feng Qizhen.

Feng Qizhen grinned and swept the rebar in his hand.

Clang! ! !

A sharp metal clang sounded.

The long knife in the killer's hand was directly broken.

The killer was stunned for a moment.

Feng Qizhen took advantage of the situation and stabbed the rebar in his hand, piercing the opponent's heart directly.

"This thing is really useful."

Feng Qizhen swung the rebar and smashed it on the head of a killer.

The latter blocked it with his knife.

Clang! ! !

The blade was directly broken, and the rebar hit the opponent's head. With a bang, the top of the head was smashed.

The killer was very strong.

But Gu Yichun and others were not bad either.

The two sides fought in a group.

Yudie's nervous face turned pale and her body trembled slightly.

Zi Su was quite calm. She had been traveling around with Shang Lu and had seen a lot of things. She had seen such scenes before.

Ning Chen held Yudie's hand and smiled softly, "Don't be afraid, nothing will happen."

Suddenly, Ning Chen looked back.

A few assassins rushed down the hillside behind him.

These people were moving very fast and agilely.

Gu Yichun kicked a killer away and accidentally discovered the situation on Ning Chen's side, "Mr. Ning, be careful!"

After saying that, he chopped a killer away with a knife and rushed towards Ning Chen.

The killer rushing down the hillside was very close to Ning Chen.

Gu Yichun's face suddenly changed, and he roared and sprinted madly.

Ning Chen looked calm, squinting his eyes at the killer rushing over.

Yudie's face was pale, but she stood in front of Ning Chen.

Ning Chen was speechless and was about to pull her behind him, but saw Yudie throwing a small white porcelain bottle at the killer.

Yudie didn't know martial arts, so her strength was very weak, just like an ordinary person throwing a stone.

The killer who rushed in front chopped the small porcelain bottle with a knife.

Bang! ! !

The small porcelain bottle exploded, and the white powder spread with the wind.

The killer who rushed in front rushed past the white powder, suddenly lowered his body, and fell to the ground.

Ning Chen looked at Yudie in surprise.

"What is this?"

Yudie didn't bother to answer, because there were still a few assassins.

Ning Chen smiled slightly, pulled Zisu and Yudie behind him, stared coldly at the other assassins who rushed over with their noses covered, and clenched the dagger in his hand.

But at this moment, a figure holding a sharp sword appeared across the sky.

A cold light flashed.

The two assassins fell down, covering their necks.

The black-clothed man's swordsmanship was sharp, and every move was fatal.

In a few breaths, except for the assassin who was knocked down by the white powder thrown by Yudie before, all the other assassins were killed, all with one sword.

The black-clothed man put away his sword, turned around and looked at Ning Chen, with a handsome face and a cold expression.

Gu Yichun, who rushed over, was also stunned by this scene, and stared at the black-clothed man vigilantly.

Ning Chen played with the dagger in his hand and smiled: "Big Brother, long time no see!"

The black-clothed man was none other than the Ghost Shadow Sect's Big Brother, Xie Siyu.
