The scar-faced burly man had already got up and looked back, “Our earl must be hungry. Bring some rations and water here soon.” Suddenly he thought of something, and asked Yang Ning, “Your Excellency, do you want to drink?”
Yang Ning found a second wind, and understood what had happened after thinking for a moment.
There was no doubt that this group of people must have mistaken him for somebody else. If he did not guess wrongly, the real earl should be the hostage buried in the bamboo grove.
His appearance and features were almost exactly the same as those of the hostage, and he even put on the clothes of that man. It was no wonder that they had mistaken him for that earl.
“That guy turned out to be an earl.” Yang Ning thought.
His was quite interested in history and had read many books in his previous life, so he was very familiar with the title “earl”.
Crown prince was the eldest son or the successor of
Duan Canghai thought for a while, and then turned around. He squatted down next to Yang Ning, and asked him with a smile, “Your Excellency, does the food suit your taste?”Yang Ning nodded vaguely, thinking that this guy must ask him how he got away. Sure enough, Duan Canghai asked, “Your Excellency, where are the kidnappers who caught you?”“The kidnappers?” Yang Ning had eaten up a roasted chicken at this time. He ate so fast that he was stuffed and even hiccupped. Duan Canghai immediately instructed, “Qi Feng, bring our earl a towel.”Qi Feng hurriedly took a towel for wiping hands. Yang Ning took it, wiped the frozen oil on his hands, and said, “You are asking me where the kidnappers went?”“Yes,” Duan Canghai said, “Your Excellency, how did you make the escape? We need to give an explanation when we return to the mansion.”Yang Ning said, “They are dead. They are all dead!”“Dead?” Duan Canghai was st
Eastward flowed the river. Far in the distance lay the splendid and grotesque mountains, surrounded by cloud and mist. The scenery was breathtaking.The water of ten thousands of miles of the Yangtze River descended from heaven, rolling and entering the ocean. All the way west, it climbed steep mountains, cut across dangerous places, and finally became narrowly contained within its banks for being blocked by the Jilong Mountain. Infinite fascinating sceneries were hidden in dangerous peaks. The integration of mountains and rivers presented a natural and magnificent landscape.The Zhongshan Mountain was like a dragon, and the Stone City a tiger. The capital city Jianye, near the mountains and by the river, was north to the Zhoushan Islands, the Jilong Mountain and the Xuanwu Lake, east to the Zhongshan Mountain, and west to the Stone City. The running river rolled and roared day and night endlessly.All the way to the capital, Duan Canghai and o
Yang Ning knew that the father of the earl was a second class General Wei in the Southern Chu State, but he did not know who the Marquis of Honor was. Since this funeral was held in the Mansion of the Marquis of Honor, this marquis should also be here.But he was more curious about the beautiful Third Lady. Was she the general’s concubine? If so, she was only Yang Ning’s co-mother-in-law because he was the earl, the heir to the general. But the Third Lady did not recognize that he was not the real earl. It seemed that he had slid through this test. But how would he cope with the following challenges?Then he thought that he could just pretend to be naive and stupid when facing unmanageable problems, because the real earl was originally a fool.When servants helped him change a suit of mourning dress, Yang Ning thought that he was damned unlucky. Then the Third Lady led him into the hall.The mourning hall was lavishly
Lady Qiong’s nails were quite long. If she clawed Gu Qinghan across the face, that beautiful and flawless snow-white face would inevitably be scratched. Yang Ning was about to stop her, only to see Gu Qinghan flashed aside lightly. The failed lunge had thrown Lady Qiong off-balance and she fell to the ground after staggering forward a few steps.Qi Yu, who had been kneeling on the side of the temporary memorial tablet and watching them with cold eyes, finally stood up and shouted, “Bitch, do you dare to bully my mother? I will show you.” He looked around, and finally grabbed an incense burner on the altar and threw it at Gu Qinghan. The guy was quite strong. Seeing that the incense burner was flying to her, Gu Qinghan’s face lost its color. When the incense burner was about to hit Gu Qinghan, a man suddenly lifted his leg and just kicked it. The incense burner immediately rebounded.No one ever expected it. Qi Yu was also stunned until the incense burner hi
Yang Ning broke the leg bone of the Fifth Lord with one move, and didn’t stop punching the Sixth Lord in the head until he bled. Then he got up, readjusted his mourning dress, and went out.Hearing the screams of the two persons in the mourning hall, Third Elder Lord hurriedly said, “Come to take a look inside.”Someone by his side rushed in, and soon came out screaming, “It’s terrible. The leg of Fifth Lord was broken. And Sixth Lord... He didn’t look well either.”Third Elder Lord was angry and anxious, shouting with rage, “Lift them to see the doctor. Hurry! Right now...”Several people rushed into the mourning hall. They first lifted the Fifth Lord out, and then someone helped the Sixth Lord out of the door. When he saw that the forehead of the Sixth Lord was bleeding freely, Third Elder Lord was anxious and angry, “Who did it?” When he hurried out, he did not see Yang Ning beat them.Yang Ning was next to him, say
Gu Qinghan frowned slightly. She hesitated for a while, and said to Yang Ning, “Ning, go by what the Dowager told you. Take off your upper garment.” She walked over with graceful steps, and helped Yang Ning take off his garment.“You can go out first and let him stay here,” The Dowager said. The old lady didn’t look back, but she knew what was happening behind her as if there were eyes in the back of her head.Gu Qinghan’s beautiful eyes showed a look of surprise, but she still respectfully said, “Yes!” She blinked at Yang Ning, motioning Yang Ning to be better-behaved. But in Yang Ning’s eyes, this beautiful woman was amused and cute. He smiled slightly at her. When Gu Qinghan went out, Yang Ning first took off the white mourning dress, and then removed his upper garment.“Kneel down!” The Dowager pithily said.Hearing the old lady’s old and cold voice, Yang Ning was in a bad mood. He didn’t know what the old lady was going to do,
Duan Canghai was stunned, as if he was surprised by Yang Ning who could even give such a literary speech. Then he shook his head and said, “Your Excellency, you misunderstand me. I have nothing to blame even if I am stabbed, let alone kicked by others.” He sat down slowly and looked up at the dark sky, muttering, “I am just missing the general. The general shouldn’t... He shouldn’t pass away like this. He is the best hero I have ever known. The God shouldn’t be so unfair...” When he spoke of this, tears ran down from his cheeks.Yang Ning knew that men didn’t easily shed tears. Duan Canghai was a tough man. Such a person would never shed a tear unless he was heartbroken.Duan Canghai, Qi Feng and other men were obviously overwhelmed by grief because of the death of the Marquis of Honor Qi Jing. It could also show that the Marquis of Honor indeed had unparalleled prestige in the hearts of these people.Yang Ning knew very little about the Mansio
Yang Ning knew that Duan Canghai rose from the ranks because the man had an obvious military bearing. In fact, Yang Ning could also find the soldier-like qualities from Qi Feng and Zhao Wushang.But he didn’t expect that these three people were all from the Black Scale Camp under the command of Third Lord.“Third Lord and the general are both the sons of old marquise. Therefore, when Third Lord was young, he began to follow old marquise to fight in the battlefield like the general.” Duan Canghai sighed with emotion, “If it was not for that... Well, Third Lord must be a famous general throughout the land today.”Yang Ning had a rough idea of the relationships in the Mansion of the Marquis of Honor after he heard this. He asked, “So, you guys returned to the capital after that battle?”“When the battle between the Black Scale Camp and the Blood Orchid Legion came to an end, there were only dozens of survivors in our camp.” Duan Cangh
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
