On the tower of Xiongfeng City, Xiong Meifeng led the officials of Xiongfeng City and looked at the Nanshan City soldiers not far ahead.
When the reported general explained the purpose of the people from Nanshan City, Xiong Meifeng thought thoughtfully and gave some instructions to the confidant beside him. Then he saw that the confidant took advantage of the fact that no one in the city was paying attention, and rode back to the house to imprison the man next to Ning Yu.
The yard of the little maid named Kerr.
The officials around him all agreed that they did not agree to allow Nanshan City's soldiers to enter the city, for fear that Nanshan City would deceive them.
Each one of them proposed that just a few leading people from Nanshan City should enter the city and hand over the gift cards.
Although they all couldn't understand the purpose of Nanshan City setting up such a big battle just to send a gift card.
The general who had just contacted Nie Zi mentioned that Ning Yu was among them. Some people speculated whether Master Ning Yu came here to show off his power deliberately and wanted to embarrass Xiong Meifeng and his son Ning Ke.
Ning Yu was obviously a taboo for the mother and son, and no one dared to express their suspicions.
After Xiong Meifeng considered it, he adopted the advice of his ministers and only allowed a few generals from Nanshan City to enter the city.
She planned to meet the people of Nanshan City in the city lord's palace.
But before that, she sent someone to send his son Ning Ke out of the back city.
If there is a change in the city, her son will be asked to find her father, Earl Xiong Bo.
Nie Zi and others discussed for a while and decided that Rong Ying would lead the disciples of the Yingzhen sect and the soldiers of Nanshan City to garrison outside the city.
Nie Zi took Ning Yu, Li Zhaocai, Zhao She, Song Li and three monks above the Ningxu realm and followed the visitors into the city.
There are no people on both sides of the streets in Xiongfeng City. The doors of every house are closed, leaving only a small opening to secretly look at a few people from Nanshan City on the street.
The viscount's residence was heavily guarded inside and outside, with strong bows and crossbows, and numerous soldiers.
Xiong Meifeng focused her attention on Ning Yu, who was among Nie Zi and others, who was walking towards the palace, and cursed in her heart a bastard.
Whenever she sees Ning Yu, she always thinks of Ning Yu's dead mother and feels resentful.
However, Xiong Meifeng knew that the overall situation should be the top priority at the moment and send these people away first.
Nanshan City seems to have infinite scenery now, but it may not be defeated one day in the future.
She has never been an impatient person.
Even Ning Yu's mother, whom she hated so much, took three years to poison her to death.
Just before Nie Zi arrived, Xiong Meifeng had learned through her confidants that it was a hateful slave in the mansion who wrote a letter to Ning Yu in Nanshan City and passed on the news that the little maid Ke'er was imprisoned.
This time they came to Nanshan City with the intention of taking people away from them.
Since the other party could agree not to bring any soldiers, these monks alone dared to enter Nanshan City, which had tens of thousands of soldiers. This shows that the people in Nanshan City still have scruples about the peace agreement that has not expired for ten years.
Xiong Meifeng felt confident, and she decided to exchange the little maid who was dispensable for her for a good price.
The more than twenty officials standing in the hall quietly retreated to the sides and looked at the people of Nanshan City sitting in the hall.
Just listen to Xiong Meifeng's words.
"I heard that you are here to deliver gifts to my husband?"
Nie Zi said.
"Exactly. I came here to deliver gifts to Lord Ning Que on the orders of my family. I hope that Viscount Ning Que and his wife will come to Nanshan City to watch the ceremony in person on the second day of February."
When Nie Zi said this, Ning Yu took out an exquisite red card from his arms, looked at Xiong Meifeng hatefully, and handed it to the housekeeper.
After Nie Zi and others came in, Xiong Meifeng didn't look at Ning Yu again, and just sneered at the resentful look in Ning Yu's eyes.
Xiong Meifeng took a look at the content of the post and said to Nie Zi with a smile.
"My husband is serving in another city on the orders of Marquis Li. I will tell him when he comes back."
Nie Zi nodded and said nothing more.
This time the scene was quiet. Everyone in the palace was looking at me and me, but no one said anything.
Xiong Meifeng also seemed to have settled down, and just asked people to show tea to the guests.
After a long time like this, Wu Yue, a little girl, saw that Xiong Meifeng had never said a word to Ning Yu, the son-in-law, and her face showed displeasure. She whispered a few words to Li Zhaocai, then stood up and asked Gao
Xiong Meifeng, who is sitting here, said.
"Hey, madam, don't you have anything to say to the person next to me?"
"How presumptuous! Are all of you in Nanshan City so rude? Even the elders didn't say anything. When will it be your turn to speak rudely, like a yellow-haired girl?"
The confidants beside Xiong Meifeng scolded Wu Yue angrily.
When Li Zhaocai heard this, he became anxious and scolded the man angrily.
"What a dead dog, let me teach you a lesson."
The man was not afraid when he saw a bloody red ax appearing in Li Zhaocai's hand, and then a long sword that was as sharp as iron and gleaming with light blue appeared in his hand.
"Enough!"
Xiong Meifeng finally spoke.
She looked at Wu Yue carefully, and said thoughtfully, her voice slightly slower.
"Thanks to this young lady's reminder, I almost didn't recognize my son Ning Yu who had run away from home."
"son?"
Ning Yu stood up, eyes red, pointing at Xiong Meifeng.
"Are you worthy of a vicious woman like you?"
Xiong Meifeng looked at the increasingly angry little bastard and replied with a sneer.
"You have also seen that this child's biological mother died early, and I also neglected his upbringing due to some trivial matters in the city..."
"shut up!"
If anger can kill, then Ning Yu's outburst of resentment towards Xiong Meifeng at this moment would probably kill Xiong Meifeng with a thousand knives.
Nie Zi sighed, shook his head and pulled Ning Yu to sit down.
Wu Yue on the side did not expect that the relationship between Ning Yu and his stepmother would be so bad, reaching the point of tense situation.
The little girl knew that she had gotten into trouble by talking too much, so fortunately she stopped talking and sat down honestly.
At the same time, a young girl was imprisoned in an underground prison in the Viscount's Mansion, it was the little maid next to Ning Yu, Ke'er.
There was a shocking blood scar on her snow-white forehead.
There is still a faint trace of blood on the scar, which must have been newly created not long ago.
Looking at the whole body, there are many scars left. The most fatal place is probably the cut mark on the left wrist that has been wrapped by the doctor.
Although she is young, she is extremely stubborn. Over the years, she has been waiting for her young master Ning Yu to come back and take her away from this dark Viscount Mansion.
This was the promise the young master made to her when he left.
From the moment she was brought back to the Viscount Mansion by the young master, she followed him wholeheartedly.
If he hadn't resisted with death many times, he might have been sold to a brothel by now.
Fortunately, an old servant who was responsible for delivering food to him was kind-hearted and could not bear to be persecuted by the evil young man Ning Ke in the mansion. He agreed to help him deliver a letter to the young master far away in Nanshan City, so he stopped thinking about seeking death.
Today, many people from Mrs. Xiong's side suddenly came and took her from her original residence here to continue her imprisonment.
However, the old slave who helped her was forcibly taken away.
It seems that the loyal old servant was killed by himself.
Ke'er curled her legs together and looked at the surrounding walls, crying silently in the darkness.
"Master, where are you? Uncle Wu is dead and was killed by Ke'er. Ke'er is so scared..."
