The Return of the Demon

Chapter 520 You Dare to Blackmail Me

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Are you really angry?"

"You also know that the situation is urgent. If I don't come forward in time, His Majesty may be so angry that he may issue an order to kill Mr. Shen."

Li Zhixing said: "So, you are going to let this official be embarrassed in front of the civil and military officials of the court?"

Ning Chen got off his horse, led the horse and walked with Li Zhixing.

"Master Li, I am wrong! Why don't I apologize to you? Don't you want to save Master Shen?"

Li Zhixing turned his head and said, "I don't dare to be a lower-ranking official!"

Ning Chen took out a few banknotes from his arms and stuffed them into them.

"Is this okay?"

Li Zhixing took the bank note without leaving a trace, stuffed it into his sleeve, and said, "Not enough!"

Ning Chen: "???"

"Five hundred taels is not enough?"

"I heard that the owner of Xianlu Liquor Shop is the prince?"

Ning Chen nodded.

Li Zhixing said: "Oh... I sent people there several times, but they didn't buy it."

Ning Chen rolled his eyes, "Okay, I'll have someone give you some jars later."

"Ten altars must be stored for at least twenty years."

Ning Chen frowned, "How dare you blackmail me?"

"Hmph, even this official is missing." Li Zhixing lowered his voice, "What I will show you to the prince later will cost the prince ten thousand jars of wine."

Ning Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, "What is it?"

"Your Majesty will go home with your subordinate first."

Ning Chen nodded slightly.

The two of them left the palace and came to Li Mansion.

"My lord, please wait a moment!"

Li Zhixing left for a while. When he came back, he stepped back and handed a letter to Ning Chen.

"My lord, look at this."

Ning Chen took it and opened the letter. After reading the contents of the letter, he looked calm on the surface, but he didn't feel relaxed at all in his heart.

This letter is for Li Zhixing.

The letter stated that Ning Chen had an affair with the Empress of Wu Kingdom and gave birth to a child named Wu Sijun. The other party claimed that he had evidence... The purpose was to prevent Li Zhixing from being on the wrong team.

The other party promised that as long as Li Zhixing did things for them, he would be guaranteed a worry-free future and prosperity.

If you are ignorant and insist on following Ning Chen, you will end up like Shen Min.

Moreover, the other party claimed that he had evidence in his hand and could soon knock Ning Chen into hell, making him unable to stand up forever.

Ning Chen looked at Li Zhixing and pretended to be relaxed and said, "Where did this letter come from?"

Li Zhixing said: "When I went to court in the morning, someone threw him into my carriage through the window."

"There is something wrong with Zhu Liu. I have noticed it for a long time... The reason why I didn't say it to the court again is because the letter said that if you dare to defend Lord Shen, the evidence of your affair with the Empress of Wu Kingdom will appear in the On His Majesty’s Dragon Case.”

"The words in this letter are conclusive. I really can't be sure, so I don't dare to act rashly."

"The King of Daxuan Town had an affair with the Empress of Wu Kingdom and gave birth to a child... I don't dare to bet. If it is true, the prince is afraid that he will not survive tomorrow."

"Your Majesty, is what this letter says true?"

Ning Chen glared at him, "It's true. I raped the Empress of Wu Kingdom and got her pregnant and gave birth to a child."

Li Zhixing's face changed greatly, "Your Majesty, this is no joke... Even if His Majesty favors you again, collaborating with the enemy and treason has completely touched His Majesty's bottom line."

Ning Chen laughed and said: "Absurd, do you think this can be true?"

Li Zhixing took out two drawings from his arms.

"Your Majesty, how do you explain this?"

Ning Chen unfolded the drawing and narrowed his eyes slightly.

On both pieces of paper, there are drawings of compound bows.

Li Zhixing said: "Your Majesty, the first picture is of a new bow equipped by the soldiers of the Wu Kingdom, called a compound bow. This second picture is of the bow used by the Ning'an Army, which is exactly the same as the one of the Wu Kingdom."

"Everyone knows that the prince is good at creating artillery, muskets, grenades, etc... Soon after the prince came back from his mission to the Wu Kingdom, the soldiers of the Wu Kingdom were equipped with this kind of compound bow."

"And the Ning'an Army is also equipped with this kind of bow. Is it a coincidence?"

Ning Chen spread his hands and said with a smile: "To be honest, I learned the compound bow of the Ning'an Army from the Wu Kingdom."

"But this kind of bow has never appeared in Wu Kingdom before?"

Ning Chen smiled and said, "What's wrong? The Wu Kingdom can't create something on its own? Can't it produce a genius?"

"Master Li, do you believe this kind of letter that is full of flaws? If they really had evidence to prove that I had an affair with the Empress of Wu Kingdom, would this evidence have been in front of His Majesty long ago?"

Li Zhixing nodded silently.

He suddenly stood up and bowed.

Ning Chen said: "What are you doing?"

Li Zhixing said: "I am willing to believe in the prince!"

"The reason why I stand with the prince is because he fought bloody battles to quell the border wars, kept Daxuan Jiangshan stable, saved His Majesty from danger several times, and was loyal."

"If one day, the prince betrays Daxuan, don't blame the official for standing on the opposite side of the prince... because I am the minister of Daxuan's punishment department and a member of Daxuan."

Ning Chen's heart suddenly trembled.

He came from time travel and doesn't have much sense of belonging to Daxuan.

The only person he was loyal to was Emperor Xuan, who showed great favor to him.

But Li Zhixing and others are different.

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry! As long as His Majesty is here, I, Ning Chen, can swear that I will never do anything detrimental to Da Xuan."

"Okay, you keep this broken letter... If one day you find out that I have done something detrimental to Daxuan, you throw this letter in my face, and I promise not to fight back."

"Be careful lately. There is an invisible black hand coming towards me, trying to clip my wings and break my arms... Shen Min is the first, but he will not be the last."

...

Coming out of Li's Mansion, Ning Chen couldn't help but sneer.

The other party is quite powerful. He even knows that his and the empress's child's name is Wu Sijun.

However, he was certain that the other party had no evidence.

If there was evidence, it would have been sent to Emperor Xuan long ago.

This woman, Wu Xingcheng, as the empress, couldn't even hide this little thing... It seemed like she was pregnant for three years.

He got home first.

In the evening, I rode an ordinary horse and came to Wuyou Escort Agency.

"I've met the prince!"

Ning Chen stared at Silence, "Someone knows about me and the empress, and also knows about Wu Sijun's existence."

Silence said in a deep voice: "The prince's wet nurse is missing!"

"Prince?" Ning Chen was stunned for a moment, "My son?"

"yes!"

She said silently: "Prince Qing gave birth to twins, and the empress loved them very much, so she adopted one and named him the prince."

Ning Chen nodded slightly.

The empress was unmarried, leaving Wu Sijun. In order to deceive others, he claimed that he was the son of Prince Qing, and then adopted him in the name of the empress and made him the prince.

Ning Chen frowned, "Does that wet nurse know Wu Sijun's identity?"

Shen Mo shook his head, "I don't know, but she is missing... The most important thing is that she saw you when you were in Prince Qing's Mansion."

Ning Chen's expression changed slightly.

He had been to Prince Qing's Mansion more than once at night, not only to see his son, but also to sleep with the empress several times.

Ning Chen frowned, "Why did you disappear?"

"He went home to visit relatives and was kidnapped on the way... It should be Daxuan's spies who did it."

Ning Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, "Did Daxuan spies do it?"

"Yes, all kinds of evidence show that it was Daxuan spy who did it... The master has ordered the border to be sealed, and we are also paying attention at all times, fearing that she will appear in Daxuan Capital."
