Chapter 401 Return to the Court

Ning Chen thought for a while and ordered: "Let your people continue to dig deeper, but be careful not to alert the enemy!"

Silent nodded.

"Do you have evidence of the Right Prime Minister's crimes?"

Silent shook his head, "No! But there is evidence of his people's crimes."

Ning Chen was surprised, "His people?"

Silent said: "The Right Prime Minister is very cautious, and it is difficult to catch him... For such people, we will start with his people."

"The Right Prime Minister is very clean, but his people have done a lot of bad things relying on the name of the Right Prime Minister."

Ning Chen nodded slightly, "Very good! Keep the evidence, these evidence will be used sooner or later."

Silent hummed!

Ning Chen suddenly changed the subject and said: "Has she sent any news recently?"

Silent nodded.

"What did she say?"

Silent said: "Let us protect you and report your movements at any time."

Ning Chen raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said with a smile: "Calculate the time, she will give birth soon, right?"

Silent hummed!

"It seems that I have to find a chance to go to Wu State." Ning Chen said, and suddenly changed the subject, "Have you sent people to protect me along the way?"

"Yes! But there was no chance to take action."

Ning Chen was slightly startled, "What do you mean?"

"Mr. Ning, you want to ask about the group of people wearing ghost masks, right?"

Ning Chen was surprised, "Aren't they your people?"

Silently shook his head, "No!"

"Then whose people are they?"

"Not sure! After you lost your trace in Xiuzhou, those people returned to the capital... But after returning to the capital, they disappeared without a trace, as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth."

Ning Chen narrowed his eyes, his eyes flickered... They disappeared without a trace after returning to the capital, and their traces must have been wiped out by someone.

Who among the people he knew had such a great ability?

Those people who protected him all the way must not have been sent by the enemy.

There are only a few people in the capital who treat him well.

Ning Chen's heart was shocked, could they be His Majesty's people?

Silent said: "I suspect it is your Majesty's people."

Ning Chen looked at him, "What's the basis?"

"Most of the civil and military officials in Daxuan Capital have our people lurking around them...Except for the royal family members, the royal family has to check their ancestors for eighteen generations, so it is difficult for us to place people."

"The imperial city has the city defense army, the imperial guards, and the Supervisory Department, which can completely wipe out the traces of those people. Except for the royal family members, it is difficult for ordinary officials to do it."

Ning Chen nodded slightly.

Silent's analysis makes sense.

Ordinary royal family members can't send people to protect him, they don't have such a deep friendship.

It should be Emperor Xuan.

It seems that in addition to the Supervisory Department in the open, Emperor Xuan also has a very strong force around him.

Emperor Xuan, the sixth, is hiding well enough.

After chatting with Silent for a while, Ning Chen left.

Coming out from the back door, riding his beloved Diao Chan back.

Ning Chen thought about things while riding his horse forward.

Suddenly, Diao Chan stopped.

Ning Chen looked up and his expression froze.

Why did he come to the Jiaofangsi?

Yudie was home now, so he didn't need to come to the Jiaofangsi anymore.

Ning Chen patted Diao Chan's head, "You lecherous horse, you brought me here again... Don't you know that I am mortal enemies with prostitution, gambling and drugs?"

Ning Chen laughed and scolded, then turned his horse's head and prepared to go home, but suddenly stopped again. He saw an acquaintance... Nie Liang.

This stuffy guy.

"Nie Feng..."

Nie Liang handed the horse to the guy at the door and was about to go in when he suddenly heard someone shouting behind him.

When he turned around, he saw Ning Chen riding a tall horse, looking at him with a playful look on his face.

"Hey, isn't this Nie Feng?"

Ning Chen spoke in a strange tone and exaggerated tone.

Nie Liang's old face flushed.

Ning Chen tilted his head and stared at him with a playful look, "Forgive my poor eyesight, are you Nie Liang or Nie Feng?"

Nie Liang: "..."

Ning Chen looked at him for a while and pretended to be shocked, "You don't look like Nie Feng, you are Nie Liang, right?"

"No, you are Nie Feng, Nie Liang is a gentleman, he never comes to the Jiaofangsi."

Nie Liang was embarrassed, clasped his fists and bowed, begging: "Ning Chen, please be merciful."

Ning Chen laughed and said: "You lied to me... You went to the Jiaofangsi in the name of your brother, your brother doesn't have face?"

Nie Liang smiled bitterly.

Ning Chen stopped teasing him, and changed the subject, saying: "How are the two old people's conditions?"

Nie Liang's parents have been bedridden for many years.

Nie Liang sighed and said, "It's still the same!"

Ning Chen said, "I'll take Zi Su to visit the two elders some other time."

Nie Liang's eyes lit up. Zi Su was a disciple of the Medical Immortal Shang Lu, and he said gratefully, "Thank you!"

Ning Chen smiled, "Then you get busy, I'm going home first!"

"Ning Chen, go in and have a drink, we haven't seen each other for a long time!"

"Some other time!" Ning Chen shook his head and said, "Who would go to the Jiaofangsi? I'm leaving first, see you later!"

Nie Liang's mouth twitched.

Ning Chen smiled and rode away.

Back to Ning Mansion, Ning Chen walked towards the inner courtyard while asking Gu Yichun, "Did Geng Jing look for you?"

Gu Yichun nodded, "As you expected, the people from the Supervisory Department did look for me."

Ning Chen nodded slightly.

He guessed right, the Emperor Xuan really knew he was in the Ghost Shadow Gate.

"Are you hungry, sir? I'll prepare some food for you."

Ning Chen nodded.

Back to the room, Yudie and Zi Su were there.

"Ning Lang is back?"

Yudie stepped forward and took the shirt that Ning Chen took off.

Ning Chen hugged each other with each other, and finished kissing Yudie and Zisu.

The two girls who were kissing had their pretty faces flushed and they were panting heavily.

When Gu Yichun brought food, Ning Chen ate and drank a bowl of Yangyuan Jiuyang soup that Zi Su had prepared long ago, and then took a hot bath with the two women waiting on him.

The only thing that dissatisfied Ning Chen was that the bathtub was too small to accommodate three people.

I'll have to build a larger bathtub later, or if that doesn't work, I'll open up the next room and make a soup pool.

After taking a shower, Ning Chen hugged the two girls and went to bed.

On this day, I wouldn’t change it even if I gave it to an emperor.

It was still dark before Ning Chen opened his eyes.

He felt like he slept for more than an hour.

Gently removing the jade and long legs that were pressing on him, Ning Chen quietly got out of bed... He had to go to court today.

...

Above the court hall, hundreds of civil and military officials were lined up on both sides.

All the ministers looked sideways at Ning Chen.

Ning Chen stood at the head of the civil servants with his hands behind his back.

Li Hanru and others had smiles that could not be concealed on their faces.

But Fan Taihe and others looked ugly.

After finally driving Ning Chen out of the court, only a few months later, he came back again.

Fan Taihe went to Wu State as an envoy, but was driven back without even being able to pass the border.

After returning, he was scolded by Emperor Xuan, fined one year's salary, and demoted three levels.

Are these the most terrifying things... The key is that if things are done poorly and Long Yan is furious, he will not be able to be reused in the future and there will be no hope of promotion.

Fan Taihe stared at the back of Ning Chen's head fiercely.

Ning Chen suddenly looked back at him and said with a smile: "Master Fan, long time no see!"

Fan Taihe snorted coldly!

Ning Chen said jokingly: "I heard that when Lord Fan went to Wu State as a missionary, he couldn't even get past the border?"

Fan Taihe's face was ashen.

Ning Chen sneered, "When Master Fan criticized me that day, his words were sharp... He was banned from the country by Wu. Didn't you use your tongue-tied skills to make them foam at the mouth?"

Fan Taihe was furious, "You, you..."
