Qu Xiaocang arranged for the carriage and had the injured guard brought out and put him inside.
The guard was still unconscious. It could be seen that the bronze general’s attack was indeed powerful. Duan Canghai examined him, finding that although the guard was injured, there was no danger to his life. That man attacked the guard’s chest. The guard’s reaction was fast, so he had blocked it with a blade in front of his chest to avoid being directly hit in the chest by the bronze general. Otherwise, his sternum would have been broken, but even so, the attack still injured the guard.
“Marquis, I...” Duan Canghai felt a little guilty and said, “It was my carelessness that put the Marquis in danger. Please punish me.”
The two of them sat face-to-face in the carriage. The carriage arranged by the Mansion of the Divine Marquis was also very spacious and not crowded at all.
“I know you’re a cautious person.” Yang Ning frowned, “Und
The carriage was about to go back to the Marquis’s Mansion. Duan Canghai saw that the guard had not woken up and said softly, “Marquis, you can’t just go back like this. If the Third Lady sees it, I’m afraid she will be terrified again.”Yang Ning immediately remembered that the Mansion of Marquis of Honor had been through so many times recently, and Gu Qinghan was already exhausted. These days, she had been terrified. If Gu Qinghan knew about what had happened last night, even if Yang Ning had been safe, Gu Qinghan would still be afraid of it. Since that was the case, it was best not to let Gu Qinghan know.“Find a place for him to recuperate first,” Yang Ning said, “We can’t let Third Auntie know what happened tonight.” He thought of something and asked, “Oh right, where did another guard go? And your mount was killed. What happened?”Duan Canghai clenched his fist and said, “The bronze general that Marquis was talking about looks very
Suddenly, the hall was silent. Yang Ning was originally a daring person, but for some reason, he felt cold sweat on his back.The servant did not understand the reason. Seeing that Yang Ning had not spoken for a long time, he asked cautiously, “Marquis, do you want him to come in?”Yang Ning was just about to say something when he heard Gu Qinghan say, “Guests are coming here, and they are looking for Marquis. How can we refuse guests? Hurriedly invite him in.”The servant agreed and left.Yang Ning turned around and saw Gu Qinghan pick up a teacup on the table. Without even looking at Yang Ning, Gu Qinghan looked at the teacup with interest. The teacup was exquisitely made, and it was painted with an ink-ink painting. It was antique, and Gu Qinghan looked like she was admiring the ink-ink painting on the cup.Yang Ning was embarrassed and called out tentatively, “Third Auntie?”Gu Qinghan didn’t lo
After Yang Ning inherited the title, Gu Qinghan had already ordered people to clean up the Eastern Courtyard. Therefore, Yang Ning's residence was a courtyard in the Eastern Courtyard of the Marquis’s Mansion, while Gu Qinghan’s courtyard was in the Western Courtyard of the Marquis’s Mansion.The sun was going down, and the weather was getting colder day by day. To get to the Western Courtyard, he naturally had to pass through the atrium. When he followed the stone path in the atrium, he heard someone shout, “Marquis.”Yang Ning turned his head and saw Han Shou, who had just been promoted to Steward, running over. Although the little old man was already fifty years old, his body was still healthy.“Oh, Steward Han, how is the Third Lady?” Yang Ning looked around and saw that there was no one else. He took the initiative to welcome Han Shou and wanted to check on him first.Han Shou said with a helpless expression, “Marquis,
Yang Ning asked Han Shou to prepare the food and personally carried the lunchbox to Gu Qinghan’s courtyard.The courtyard door was closed. Yang Ning reached out to push the door, but it couldn’t be pushed open. It was locked from the inside. Since he knew that Gu Qinghan was angry this time, he needed to properly coax her. He knocked on the door and a voice quickly came from the courtyard. “Who are you? The Third Lady told me that she wouldn’t see anyone.” It was the maidservant beside Gu Qinghan, whose voice was clear.Yang Ning coughed, “It’s me, the Marquis.”“Marquis?” The maidservant was not very enthusiastic, “Marquis, the Third Lady said not to see anyone. Marquis, you should go back first.”“How can I go back?” Yang Ning said, “Third Auntie hasn’t eaten for a whole day. I made some dishes and sent them over. If you don’t open the door quickly, I will criticize you.”The maidservant hesitate
Yang Ning shook his head and sighed, looking disappointed, and then he sat down. This time Gu Qinghan just glanced at the chair with nothing said. “You didn’t want Zhuo Xian’er to fall into the hands of those guys, and certainly I too, couldn’t bear to see that. Luckily Yuan Rong’s friends were righteous and nosed out.” Yang Ning continued, “But you know Dou Lianzhong is no good. I wanted to leave, but they said they were afraid Dou Lianzhong would be unconvinced and continue to cause trouble if I left like that.”“So... So you stayed over there?” Gu Qinghan frowned.Yang Ning forced a smile, “It’s not like I didn’t know you were waiting for me to come back home. You must be worried that I didn’t return overnight. But... Alas, if I left like that, I would have to be held accountable if something really happened there.” After a pause, he then said, “So I thought about it and stayed there. Dou Lianzhong had some scruples of me after all.
The next morning, Yang Ning made the accountant take five hundred taels of silver bank notes and went straight to Qionglin Academy personally escorted by Duan Canghai and other two people.Although it hadn’t yet snowed, the ground was already covered with a layer of frost. Yang Ning wore a brocade cotton robe, draped a black overcoat that was fairly warm.It had to be admitted, even if the Mansion of the Marquis was sometimes economically stretched, it was still much better compared to the ordinary family, at least without worrying about food or clothing.Yang Ning couldn’t help but think, if the coincidental mistake didn’t take place, it’d be unsure what kind of life he would have lived now. Although he couldn’t possibly freeze and starve with his ability, it would be definitely no better than as a Marquis.The four people all rode horses instead of carriages and headed towards east of the city. Yang Ning didn’t know where
After hearing Yang Ning’s words, the faces of the few girls beside Su Zixuan all slightly paled, among which some immediately lowered their heads, not daring to look at Yang Ning again.These girls, as Yang Ning expected, are indeed all from official families, either rich or noble.Although Zhuo Qingyang makes unconventional recruit only on enlightenment and talent instead of family origin, the students in the academy naturally distant away from each other because of the difference in status.Girls from official families like Su Zixuan soon formed a small group after entering the academy, clearly separated from those students of ordinary origin.In this group of official ladies, Su Zixuan’s origin was yet the highest.Although the Marquis of Martial Arts ranked at the bottom among the four hereditary marquises, it was still one of the four marquises after all, the only family higher than which would be the royal
Yang Ning was stunned, Xiaoyao’s question got him. But he reacted quickly and smiled, “I’m very interested in flowers recently, but I don’t know much about them. I know you are quite knowledgeable about flowers, so I’d like to ask you for advice if you have time.”Xiaoyao smiled shyly and said, “I actually don’t know much about them either.”“By the way, Miss Xiaoyao, have you been to that flower market afterwards?” Yang Ning asked, “I’ve been keeping that pot of golden marquee and silver table over there, so that the flower store owner can give it to you when he sees you, you...”Xiaoyao shook her head and said, “It’s been some time since I’ve been there.” She made a sweet smile and said, “Many thanks to you for remembering.” Pointing to the front, she said, “Mr. Zhuo is over there, if you want to see him, hurry up and go. I heard that today a Mr. Jiang from the East Sea will come to the academy to lecture. When Mr. Jiang arrives, I’m a
Qi Ning and the others waited outside the cave for a few moments before they saw White Toothpower come out, saying, "The Great Witch has given permission to go in, so all of you follow me."The crowd followed behind White Toothpower and entered within the stone cave.From the outside, the grotto is just an ordinary grotto, but Qi Ning in-depth, only to be appalled at the grotto of the project is huge, just the grotto of the vast scale, most of which is still attributed to the nature of the ghostly craftsmanship, and then later years, and by the Miao people keep building, only to have today's scale.Although the size of the grotto is not small, but is full of lonely and desolate, the people walk in the grotto, kicking and stepping, in the grotto spread out a long way, more show the quiet of the grotto.Qi Ning was even thinking at this time, if the Great Witch was alone here, alone and lonely, it was really a bit pitiful.After walking through a long tun
Several chiefs looked at each other, and one said loudly, "Dandu Bone, you have already killed the Great Miao King, do you want to make another mistake? If you hurt a single hair of Rangchadulu's head, we will definitely break your body into pieces."Dandu Bone said sternly,"Just based on Langchadulu's words, you put the blame on my Dandu Bone's head? You are all the chiefs of the villages, do you believe Langchadulu's words so easily?"Langchadulu exclaimed, "The evidence is overwhelming, could it be that I am falsely accusing you? Dandu Bone, you are so guilty that you should commit suicide in public to give everyone an explanation." Feeling the knife on the neck slightly tightened, the body could not help but tense up, and there was a trace of fear in his heart."I am Yifu of Black Rock Cave, the murder of the Great Miao King was all a trap set by Langchadulu." Seeing the blackness of the surrounding people and the flashes of swords, Yifu shouted, "It was Langch
The night was dark and moonless, and the Xishan Mountain Range was shrouded in night.The big Miao King was killed, the remains were placed within the large village of the Miao village, the village in addition to assigning some manpower to guard the various key roads on the mountain, young and old are already gathered to the outside of the large village, under the night, a group of people in the black, at least there are also thousands of people.The crying seemed to go on unabated from morning to night.During the years when the Great Miao King was alive, the Cangxi Miao Village, under his command, was almost peaceful, with people being self-sufficient and young and old in peace.Big Miao King is like a big tree, has been in the Miao village shelter, people have also been accustomed to have such a big tree protection and blessing.But overnight, the great tree of the Great Hmong King collapsed, and for many people, the murder of the Great Hmong King wa
The three of them were naturally unable to sleep this night, and by the next day, no one could be seen coming over for the entire day.The Prisoner Wolf Wall is quite a distance from the fortress, but despite this, the three of them heard the sound of weeping coming from the fortress, and in their hearts, they all knew that the news of the murder of the Great Miao King had spread throughout the fortress.The weeping continued for a whole day, and Dandu Bone could hardly help himself, and cried twice when he thought of the murdered King of the Great Hmong.This day not only no one to come over to the arraignment, and even the food delivery is not seen to come over, until after dark, only to see Chegu with another guard carrying a food basket to come over.Chegu first sent the meal between the gaps in the iron bars within Dandu Bone's stone prison, then Yifu, and finally Qi Ning's stone prison.Seeing that the meal was also still quite hearty, Qi Ning lau
At Qi Ning's words, Yi Fu suddenly came to a realization, her heart was appalled, and she said, "Langchadulu wanted to send out troops, but the Great Miao King and Dandu Bone didn't agree and insisted on negotiating, so Langchadulu set up a trap, killed the Great Miao King, and framed us and Dandu Bone for the crime.""That's my guess." Qi Ning sighed, "If my guess is correct, then we shouldn't survive a day. Now that Dandu Bone is imprisoned here and the Great Miao King has been killed, Langchadulu has become the number one person in Upper Water Cave, and it's only right that he can call the shots." With a hefty smile, he said, "The three of us are the ones he is most uneasy about right now, as long as we are dead, and the Great Hmong King is killed there will be someone to take the blame for him, and he will have nothing to worry about anymore."Dandu Bone clenched his fist and snapped, "If the Great Miao King was really killed by him, I ... I will definitely break thi
The three of them were each put within a stone cave, with Yifu in the center and Qi Ning and Dandu Bone to the left and right.As soon as Qi Ning entered inside, he knew that it was extremely difficult to get out, the cave was rocky on three sides, and only one side of the iron bars could be accessed.Prisoner wolf wall is obviously the upper water hole carefully designed place, the iron bars are made of fine iron, and on the iron lock, if the cold blade in hand, Qi Ning still think some opportunity to break out of the door, and now want to unarmed out of the cage, that is whimsical.In addition, there are also left three strong Miao people here to guard, that wooden house is the guard room, the front door is opposite to the stone wall prison, people in the inside, can notice every move within the stone prison.Yi Fu sat within the stone prison, anxious, she did not care about her own safety, but when she thought that the Great Miao King had met an untimely e
Dandu Bone's face turned cold and he said in a deep voice, "What did you say?""Dandu Bone, I heard that you have known these two for a long time?" Rangchadulu gripped the cold blade in his hand, "When you were at the bottom of the mountain, I heard that you were prepared to bring them up the mountain without the Great Miao King's orders?"Dandu Bone's face changed at first, and he snapped, "Rangchadulu, what do you mean by that?"Langchadulu seemed to still have some scruples about Dandu Bone, took two steps back and said loudly, "What do I mean, don't you understand? What exactly is the origin of these two people, you have to give us an explanation."At this time there was a crowd of more than ten people in the room, and all of them looked at Dandu Bone when they heard Rangchadulu say this.Dandu Bone clenched his fist and said, "That's right, I met them on my way back and .... they have saved my life.""It's good that you admit it." Rangchadulu
Langchadulu's voice was mournful, Eve's expression changed dramatically, and Qi Ning's face sank.The Miao people who followed Rangchadulu over were all shocked, and two of them had already snatched into the house, while Yifu had already followed into the house as well.Qi Ning followed behind Yi Fu and went in, only to see that there was a rattan chair at the corner of the house, the Great Miao King was sitting on top of the rattan chair, his back leaning against the rattan chair, but his head was drooping down on his chest, the house was filled with a smell of blood, the light of the oil lamps flickered, and Rangchadulu knelt down at the feet of the Great Miao King, holding the Great Miao King's hand, his complexion was bleak.Qi Ning's expression was cold, by the light of the lamp, but he had also seen clearly that in the chest of the Great Miao King, a blood stain, and the blood was flowing downward, obviously just killed soon.What shocked Qi Ning was no
Dandu Bone said in a deep voice, "Rangchadulu, for so many years, we Miao people have been living in harmony with the Han people, do you know what the consequences would be if we were to call in the troops from all the caves?"Langchadulu asked rhetorically, "And do you know what will happen if we are indifferent and turn a blind eye to the situation in the Black Rock Cave?" He took a step forward and said, "Our mission at Upper Water Cave is to stand up for the Miao people when they are in danger. Now that we all know that the Black Rock Cave is suffering from injustice, yet we sit back and do nothing, won't the Miao Family's 72 caves be chilled?""Not bad, Great Miao King, Black Rock Cave Eve has already told us the truth of the matter, this is obviously a trap set by the government for Black Rock Cave, they are so insidious, do we have to wait until Black Rock Cave has been killed before we react?" A Miao man said with righteous indignation, "Let's immediately send pe
