Gan Fen absentmindedly ate a few bites of the food, glanced at Ma Rong, who looked heroic but was actually trying to hide his nervousness, and couldn't help but put down his chopsticks and said, "They couldn't find someone to secretly attack Ding Kui, right? Now we have
By rushing to the front, if anything happens to Ding Kui, people will immediately think of us, and maybe we will become the scapegoat.
Mao Xing drank half of the wine and almost spit it out. He forced himself to swallow the wine and said, "You are thinking too much. Attacking Ding Kui is tantamount to breaking the rules. It will make all the nobles of the kingdom an enemy. Even if they are
Even the Shaodians don’t dare to do this, they don’t dare and there is no need to do it.”
"The problem is that if the blame is put on us, it will not be them who break the rules. Instead, the four of us will become the opposite of all the nobles in the kingdom. For the benefit of the family, I have to prepare for the worst and think more about whether
Is it for myself?" Gan Fen was obviously dissatisfied with Mao Xing's attitude.
Mu Jing saw the disharmony between the two and immediately came out to smooth things over, saying: "Brother Gan's concerns are not unreasonable. What Brother Mao said is a normal situation. We don't need to be too nervous, but we must be on guard.
Let's do this. I suggest that everyone send some manpower to secretly pay attention to Ding Kui's situation. If he is in any danger, he can be rescued in time. With the manpower of the four of us, plus the 'death grip', even if he is in danger, he can be rescued in time.
Even if Fate Gaze comes, it shouldn't be able to do anything to Ding Kui."
"I agree! There is reliable news that Ding Kui's head guard has a good background, and is most likely Qian Bu from the Soul-Destroying Arrow.
We just need to send some experts who track the use of poisons. We don't have to worry about Ding Kui's combat power." Now Ma Rong stopped pretending to be cool and stood on the side of Gan Fen and Mu Jing.
Seeing that the three people agreed and that he didn't have to pay much, Mao Xing did not object to Mu Jing's proposal.
During these days, all the states and cities of Shaodian Kingdom were the busiest. The capital city of Zhenjing was not the state capital of King Zhou, so it was calmer than usual. Only the entrance of the Magician General Assembly was very lively.
People in the capital pay more attention to the state competition than to the county competition. All kinds of news come from all over the country, and there are particularly many people who come to the Magician General Assembly to receive and send news.
"Sir, our right guard is in trouble." Li Hong walked into Shao Dianyin's room excitedly and whispered in Shao Dianyin's ear for a while.
After hearing this, Shao Dianyin had no expression on his face. He stood up and walked out of the room, looking up at the blue sky.
"I think it would be a good thing for Ding Duhu to share more of this kind of thing." Shao Dianyin suddenly said something that made Li Hong confused.
Li Hong was following behind Shao Dianyin, not knowing how to respond to the words of the Chief of Internal Security.
Shao Dianyin seemed to have eyes on the back of his head. Seeing Li Hong's puzzled expression, he laughed dryly and said, "No matter how I explain these things to you, you won't understand. Now there are only four princes who are dissatisfied with Ding and they all want to protect Anguo."
It's just public power, no matter who is behind it, they can't change his official position in the Internal Security Department.
Even if there are forty princes and princes dissatisfied with Ding Kui, as long as the king doesn't mind, he will still be the Right Protector of the Internal Security Department, your colleague, and my subordinate; the business he wants to do can still be done and the money he wants to earn can be continued.
Continue to make money; one day the current Protector of the Country is gone, he will become the Protector of the Country.
Since you all know the news, then that bitch Shaodian Mi must also know it. He tricked me last time, and the results are unclear. I can't give him another chance to do something trick this time.
Go check and see if there are any members of those four families in the capital. If so, send palace guards to teach them a lesson without beating them to death. Make it obvious and don't hide it, otherwise people won't know it's us.
If you do it, the beating will be in vain.”
"Sir, let's just do these small things to find some entertainment for ourselves. But will the king reprimand you for doing this?" Li Hong was gearing up in private, but on the surface he had to pretend to be loyal.
.
Shao Dianyin turned around and glared at Li Hong, cursing: "You know nothing! The more arrogant and domineering you are, the more secure my position will be. Give the king a scolding. This is the king's favor to me. You
Do you have the good fortune to be reprimanded by the king?
From time to time, the king must give us some excuse to reprimand us, so as to show the majesty of the king's power. I scold you every day, why don't you still be your Zuoduhu? You brat, do you always complain about me in your heart?"
At this time, Li Hong was flattering him, and he quickly shook his head and said: "Don't dare, don't dare, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.", but he just suffers from being unable to repay, so how can he blame you, humble minister.
Now take people to find trouble with the Mao, Gan, Ma, and Mu families, and tell them that people from the Internal Security Department are not easy to mess with."
Duke Zhongzheng threw a piece of information to Zibi. After reading it with his triangular eyes, Zipi hurriedly said: "Father, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with me. How could I send someone to do such a thing in Zhongwangzhou?
I can't beat you."
"Is this really not your fault?"
"No." Zibi said firmly.
"That's strange. Who is going against the scoundrels of the Ding family? Or is there another agenda? There are not many people who can accomplish this, only those few, but doing so will not do them any good.
"Zisi stroked his long beard, looking puzzled.
"No matter who did it, on the surface the biggest beneficiary is our Zi family. Could it be that the little scoundrel did it himself?" Zipi asked, rolling his eyes.
"If you can think in this direction, you have made some progress. The question is, what kind of virtue is that evil? You can command the four families of Mao, Gan, Ma and Mu.
The ambush fifteen years ago could be said to have resulted in a disaster. Both the Ding family suffered losses. The matter has not yet been clarified.
Don't forget, the people of Cao State only said that they would send a few masters over to make the Ding family wipe out the throne, but they didn't know that they would create such a big battle. Your Majesty, you still have doubts about me.
My father didn't expect that the Cao people would go back on their word, but I didn't expect that they would have the energy to come with so many people. Now I think there must be another force helping them.
You arrange for people to inquire, starting with the people from those four families, to find out what kind of medicine the people behind them are selling." Zisi did not notice that he had torn off a beard.
"Yes, I will personally arrange it. I must find out who it is, including our family."
"By the way, what happened to those tribesmen who secretly practiced the "Thousands of Hammers and Hundreds of Refinements"?"
"It's still the same. It's not much different from the tribesmen who haven't practiced this secret book. Father, is this secret book really related to Ding Zhen's breakthrough to the master knight? We have tried for so many years, but we have not found that it has any help in the cultivation of fighting spirit.
It’s just an ordinary body-training secret book.”
"Ding Zhen went to Xiaxi Town back then and made a breakthrough when he returned to the capital. The only thing he had with him was this secret book. The ancestors of the Zi family spent countless manpower and material resources to investigate this situation clearly. Logically speaking, there should be no mistakes.
After spending such a high price, you only got back an ordinary body-training secret book? Do you have to go to the Ding family's old house to check it out?" Zisi's beard broke again, and he still didn't notice it.
"Father, we have spent such a high price just to find a way to inherit the fighting spirit of the Dominant Knight. Is it worth it?"
"It's worth it! Even though the current power and strength of the Zi family is not much different from that of the ten great dukes, as long as the king does not need us to manage internal affairs, the Zi family without the protection of level six combat power will soon decline.
Without the inheritance of the Dominant Knight, once he loses his seat in the Government Council, Duke Zhongzheng will become a Marquis of Zhongzheng, and any of the ten Dukes can crush the Zi family. Even in front of the lost Lord Protector, we cannot hold our heads high.
The Shaodian clan has been able to rule the kingdom for so many years, isn't it because the family can produce a few dominant knights at random? Do you think that just a seventh-level or eighth-level expert can manage such a large kingdom? You can make ten
The Grand Duke is willing to be a minister?
Although it is rumored that there are legendary knights hidden in the ten major duke families, after all, these people cannot take action at will. Moreover, as far as I know, there are no seventh-level masters in several families, and only the dominant knights are supporting the scene.
Do you think the ancestors of the Zi family are as stupid as you? They have been planning to obtain the "Thousands of Hammers and Hundreds of Refinements" for so many years just to attack the Ding family? Fortunately, Zidan is much smarter than your father. Otherwise, how will I go to the Eternal Temple after my death?
To the ancestors of the Zi family." Zisi wished he could pick up a chair and slap this brainless son to death.
Zipi was very unconvinced. It turned out that getting the "Thousands of Hammers and Hundreds of Refinements" back did not have the expected effect. The Zi family spent a huge price to hand it over to him, and maybe he could get better results.
"My child is ashamed. I will intensify my efforts to cultivate Dan'er in the future and allocate more resources to him. I also hope that my father will spend more time to guide him." Zipi did not dare to express his inner thoughts.
Zisi finally found out that he had broken several beards. He collected them distressedly, wrapped them in a handkerchief, stretched out his thumb and rubbed his temples a few times, and said, "It's all my fault that I spent all my time assisting Shaodian Dan on boarding the mountain."
Your Majesty, I have neglected my teachings and made the same mistake as Ding Daopifu.
Starting tomorrow, whenever I am free at home, you can bring Dan'er over. I can't repeat Ding Dao's mistakes and let Ding Kui, a little scoundrel, have a chance to make a comeback. The descendants of the Zi family will always ride on the Ding family's side.
Above all, scheming and strategy are our most important assets."

The five families of Yang, Jiang, Gongsun, Long and Xun all came to Zhenna City on the last day of September. The state pastor Shaodianjian sent his aide Master Jiang to the city gate to welcome the five most important official teams of the Zhongwangzhou state competition.
.
On October 1st, the presidents of the knights guilds from the twenty counties in Zhongwangzhou took the players participating in the state competition to the Qizhong branch to register for the competition, and settled in the Qizhong branch to make final preparations for the state competition.
