Afterwards, Lan Tianji said: "Hope, you are an official in my house. In the future, if there is another traitor who dares to act recklessly, I will want your head."
Hope was taken aback and immediately said: "Yes, Master!" He also understood that this time Lan Tianji was really angry.
"And your loyal uncle, you have been with me for so long, don't you still know what you should do and what you shouldn't do?" Lan Tianji said coldly.
"I realize my mistake," Uncle Zhong said hurriedly.
"Everyone, get out!" Lan Tianji waved his hand and said at the same time: "This traitor will be driven out of the Marquis Mansion and the Imperial City from today on. When will he become a master, let him come back."
Lan Tianji was really extremely sad and disappointed with these sons. He knew that confinement alone was not enough to deter them. So Lan Tianji simply became cruel.
"Father, father!" Lan Zhong couldn't help but change his face in shock when he heard this. He immediately knelt down and begged for mercy. He burst into tears and was so sad.
"Pull away!" Lan Tianji shouted.
"Father, I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong!" Lan Zhongyi cried.
But at this time, Uncle Zhong had already directly lifted Lan Zhong up and took him out of the study.
Hope also withdrew.
Only Lan Tianji and Lan Tingyu were left in the study.
"Father, that child also said goodbye." Lan Tingyu bowed deeply and said.
Lan Tianji looked at Lan Tingyu and said, "Are you still so prejudiced against fathers?"
Lan Tingyu said: "My child doesn't dare!"
Lan Tianji was also a proud and arrogant person. How could he show weakness in front of Lan Tingyu? He waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"
Lan Tingyu said: "Yes, Father!"
He turned around and left the study.
The moment she left the study, Lan Tingyu sneered in her heart. "Lan Tianji, Lan Tianji, when I was bullied in every way, you turned a blind eye. Now that you see me standing up, you want to make things right, but it will never be possible!"
Lan Tianji then went to Siguotang.
In the Siguo Hall, Lan Jianyi was sitting cross-legged in meditation.
As soon as Lan Tianji came in, Lan Jianyi's eyes flashed with joy. He stood up, bowed respectfully and shouted: "Father!"
Lan Tianji said coldly: "Kneel down!"
Lan Jian was startled, but he did not dare to disobey his father, so he knelt down obediently.
"It was you who promised Nie Meiniang to the third child and then asked the third child to torture Nie Meiniang?" Lan Tianji asked.
Lan Jianyi finally understood what was going on and said, "Yes, Father."
Lan Tianji said: "Your third brother has been expelled from the Hou Mansion by his father and is not allowed to enter the imperial city again."
"Ah?" Lan Jianyi turned pale in astonishment and said, "Father, why are you doing this? Is it wrong for Chen Yang to be arrogant and Nie Meiniang torturing them? Is it wrong for me to teach them a lesson?"
"Wrong, absolutely wrong!" Lan Tianji said coldly.
Lan Jian was stunned.
Lan Tianji said: "In addition to making Chen Yang feel disgusted, what other purpose does this have? If you regard him as your enemy, your opponent, then what you have to do is to eliminate his hostility and please him.
.If you are not absolutely sure that he will be killed, then absolutely do not take action. This is what an adult man should do."
Lan Jian was shocked, and he immediately said: "Father, I know I was wrong."
Lan Tianji said: "My father originally had high expectations for you, but what you did has greatly disappointed me. If these three years of reflection can't make you grow, then you will be just like your third brother in the future.
, leave the imperial city. It’s okay not to want such a useless son!”
Then, Lan Tianji turned around and walked away.
In Shaowei's Mansion, Nie Meiniang ate five Ningxue Pills in one go. Naturally, these Ningxue Pills belonged to Qiao Ning.
Although Nie Meiniang was seriously injured, she was also a master of Taixu Sixth Heaven, so with the help of Ningxue Dan, her injuries recovered very quickly. The scars on her body began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After all, Ningxue Dan is not an ordinary product!
After one night, Nie Meiniang's injuries healed, and the whip marks on her body disappeared completely. Her skin was better than before, and her cultivation level also jumped to the seventh level of Taixu.
All of this is due to the Ningxue Dan.
Nie Meiniang then took a bath and then put on a black dress. She became radiant and charming again.
Chen Yang and Qiao Ning also stayed up all night. They were all guarding Nie Meiniang. At this time, Chen Yang and Qiao Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
The morning sun shone in the courtyard of Shaowei Mansion. In the pavilion in the courtyard, Chen Yang asked Biyue to prepare breakfast.
Chen Yang and Qiao Ning were waiting for Nie Meiniang to arrive.
"Miss Qiao, thank you for the Ningxue Pill." Chen Yang said sincerely.
Qiao Ning smiled lightly and said, "Do we still need to be polite between us?"
Chen Yang said: "There is no need to be polite between us, but Ningxue Dan is for Mei Niang."
Qiao Ning said: "She is your friend, and she is also my friend. Besides, Mei Niang is a good person."
Chen Yang smiled.
Qiao Ning suddenly took a deep look at Chen Yang and said, "If Lan Tianji hadn't arrived in time yesterday, would you really have knelt down and drilled your crotch?"
Chen Yang was stunned. A hint of bitterness flashed in his eyes, and he said, "I can't really watch Mei Niang suffer such torture just for my own self-esteem, right?" He paused and said, "What if?
In the past, I would not do this. I would rather die than surrender.
My temper, you tortured Mei Niang today, I will pay it back to you in the future. But after experiencing Luo Ning, I feel that nothing can compare to living. If Mei Niang dies because of this, I will never give it back to you.
How to take revenge, what’s the point?”
Qiao Ning said: "You have indeed changed a lot, but I don't know whether this change is good or bad. People say that ascetics are too ungrateful. But you and I are all sentient beings after all. Maybe we will never reach the end of the world.
It cannot reach the highest state."
While the two were talking, Nie Meiniang came.
As soon as she arrived, the fragrance hit her face.
In the past, Nie Meiniang was mature, charming, and full of charm. But now, Nie Meiniang seems to have been washed away.
"Meiniang, sit down!" Chen Yang and Qiao Ning stood up at the same time, welcoming Nie Meiniang to take her seat.
Nie Meiniang sat down and did not say thank you to Chen Yang and Qiao Ning. She just said: "What are you talking about?"
Qiao Ning smiled and said, "There's nothing to talk about." She paused and said, "Mei Niang, you can stay in Shaowei Mansion from now on. This time Lan Tianji even spoke, the idiots in Hou Mansion
Young Master must not dare to do it again."
Nie Meiniang felt yearning in her heart. She looked at Chen Yang and said, "Is it okay?"
Chen Yang said: "Of course, this Shaowei Mansion is our home, but it is not my home alone!"
Nie Meiniang smiled slightly.
Chen Yang added: "But Mei Niang, do you still miss Lan Jianyi?"
Nie Meiniang said: "From the moment he gave me to Lan Zhongyi, all the kindness between me and him has been severed."
Chen Yang laughed and said, "Okay, that's great."
Qiao Ning thought of something and said: "Now the Dashun Kingdom is using troops against Dakang. Behind Dashun, the Yuntian Sect is adding fuel to the flames. The Yuntian Sect is increasingly unable to tolerate our Dakang, and the imperial court is also
When it comes to employing people, Chen Yang, we still have to recruit as many experts as possible to strengthen the Shaowei Mansion. In this way, we will have capable manpower to do what the Emperor orders us to do."
Chen Yang said: "That's right, but it's not easy to recruit decent experts!"
Qiao Ning said: "Take your time, I can also help you think of a way. We want Shaowei Mansion to truly establish a foothold in the imperial city."
Nie Meiniang said: "Unfortunately, my cultivation level is low and I can't seem to be of much help."
Chen Yang said: "Who said that, you can help us manage the housekeeping and take care of everything in the house."
Nie Meiniang smiled.
The three of them chatted happily among themselves. At the end, Qiao Ning said: "Meiniang is saved this time, thanks to Lan Tingyu."
Chen Yang was stunned for a moment.
Qiao Ning knew what Chen Yang was thinking, and she said: "Before you are unsure, you have to let go of your prejudices, right? When dealing with people, you have to do it how you should do it. We can't let people say that our Shaowei family doesn't understand etiquette."
Chen Yang said: "Well, I will choose the gift later and take Mei Niang to Lan Tingyu's Zhenyuan Mansion to say thank you."
Nie Meiniang felt a little strange when she heard this and said: "Prejudice? Chen Yang, what's the prejudice between you and Lan Tingyu?"
Chen Yang said: "It's a long story. I'll tell you again when I get the chance."
Nie Meiniang stopped asking further questions.
What did Chen Yang think of? He took out the black beads given by Nie Meiniang and said, "Meiniang, what on earth is this bead? We don't seem to know each other, and the people in Tianchi Pavilion didn't recognize it when I showed it to them.
"
Nie Meiniang said: "I don't know what this is. Once when I was helping Lan Jianyi go to the border to handle a task, I saw an old man in a cave who was about to pass away. The old man didn't know what kind of skills he practiced.
I got to the point where my oil was exhausted. He finally gave me this bead and asked me to become his successor. Before I agreed, the old man died. So, this bead has always been in my hand."
She paused and continued: "The old man has no name and no clues about him. I don't know who he is. At that time, after I buried the old man, I left the border. Originally, I planned to bury this old man.
I gave the beads to Lan Jianyi, but by some strange coincidence, I kept them myself later. When I saw you opening a house this time, I wanted to give you something. But I couldn’t think of a good gift, so in the end I simply gave the beads to you.
Got you."
Chen Yang looked at the black bead and said, "It's really a strange thing. It should have a lot of energy, but I can't feel anything."
Nie Meiniang said: "I don't have much chance with this bead. Maybe you can work wonders when the time comes."
Chen Yang smiled and said, "No matter what, I like this thing very much."
