Chapter 507 Ning Yuanzhou Faints
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
Ning Yuanzhou paced back and forth in Mingdao Hall with his hands behind his back.
Every once in a while, I would ask, "Is Mr. Liu back?"
The old butler shook his head helplessly.
The time was getting later and later, but still no news came.
Ning Yuanzhou couldn't help but ask anxiously, "Where's Lord Wen? Has there been any news of his death?"
The old butler shook his head helplessly again.
Ning Yuanzhou's heart was like an ant on a hot pan at this moment, and he was really anxious.
He wanted to hear Mr. Liu return safely and tell him that what had happened was accomplished, Yan Wu failed to rescue him in time, and Wen Renye was dead.
But until now, ah!
No news at all!
Late at night, a sharp arrow suddenly pierced the pillar outside Mingdao Hall with a whistling sound.
The old butler hurried forward to remove the arrowhead, took out the message on it, and handed it to Ning Yuanzhou respectfully.
Ning Yuanzhou quickly grabbed the letter and looked at it.
Immediately, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and his whole body was shaking. The old butler saw that the situation was not good and was about to step forward to inquire about the situation.
Unexpectedly, Ning Yuanzhou was so angry that his face suddenly turned pale. He spat out a mouthful of blood directly onto the letter paper and fainted.
"Master, master... someone come quickly, the master has fainted..." The old butler yelled and rushed forward to check on his master's condition.
He took the opportunity to stuff the letter paper that Ning Yuanzhou was holding tightly in his hand into his arms. Several servants rushed in just when they heard the sound. Some helped to carry the person, some helped to call the doctor, and some helped to notify everyone in the back house.
After the old butler welcomed the doctor into the room, he found an empty corner and spread out the letter paper in his arms.
He wanted to see who had passed on the news that made the master so angry!
After opening the letter, the old butler realized the seriousness of the matter, because the news was not brought by the servant who went to inquire about the news, but by Qin Feng.
Who is Qin Feng?
He was the second one among the four seventh-grade warriors.
Qin Feng clearly stated in the letter that Wen Renye's martial arts skills were very strong, at least above the eighth rank, and they brothers were not as strong as him.
Ruan Deng and Li Ji both died at the hands of Wen Renye.
He and Lao Siping were both seriously injured.
I have no face to return to Ning Mansion.
I am leaving this letter to let you know.
This time they attacked and killed them, resulting in heavy casualties, which was enough to repay the Ning Mansion for its support over the years.
The letter finally warned Ning Yuanzhou that Wen Renye was not someone they could afford to offend, and advised Ning Yuanzhou to consider his family and not follow in the footsteps of the Qinghe Cui family!
After reading the letter, the old housekeeper finally realized how much trouble his master had gotten himself into!
Wasn't it because the Qinghe Cui family fell into the hands of Princess Zhaohua that they were wiped out overnight?
Although they had no evidence, they could not imagine who else, except Princess Zhaohua, would have the ability to wipe out a thousand-year-old family in one night.
Now, this small prefect sent by Princess Zhaohua is actually an eighth-rank master.
If this is the case, then Mr. Liu is also...
The old butler didn't dare to think any further. He just hoped that Mr. Liu could return safely.
You know, if a noble family does not have an eighth-grade warrior in charge, it will be like a fish on a chopping board, helpless!
Now, there is no news of Mr. Liu, and two of the four seventh-grade warriors who have reached the pinnacle of martial arts are dead and two are injured. Their Lin'an Ning clan has successfully angered the devil again.
What will happen to that devil whose heart is as vicious as Princess Zhaohua in the future?
At this moment, the old butler felt that his whole body was sweating, and his back was soaked through his clothes.
Just at this moment, a servant came hurriedly and stood aside to report that the lady wanted to see him. Only then did he react.
At this time in the back hall.
Zhou and the three sons and four daughters of the Ning family's eldest branch, as well as three concubines, were all waiting here.
Among them, Zhou gave birth to a son and two daughters. Now the youngest daughter is missing, leaving only one son and one daughter.
The rest were all born to concubines.
Most of them depend on Ning Yuanzhou for their livelihood, so they take his sudden fainting very seriously. They have to take it seriously, because Ning Yuanzhou is their backbone.
"Uncle Fu, what exactly happened? Why did the master suddenly fall into a coma?" Zhou hurried forward with the help of the little maid, her face full of worry.
First, the youngest daughter disappeared, and then the master suddenly fell into a coma.
Which deity did the Ning family offend?
I have to suffer such a series of blows.
The old butler's forehead was covered with sweat. He knelt on the ground with his head drooped, but said nothing.
The assassination attempt on Lord Wen must never be made known to anyone else.
Even if the lady asks, it is not allowed.
Zhou was furious. She slapped the old housekeeper hard in the face and angrily scolded him, "It's already this late, and you're still trying to hide this. Are you planning to wait until the master dies before telling me?"
"The master is in a coma now. I am the mistress of the Ning family and can sell you out at any time. Have you thought it over? Will you tell me or not?"
Zhou's well-maintained face also showed a stern look at this moment. After all, she was the mistress of the Ning family's mansion.
The momentum is exactly the same as that of Ningyuan Prefecture.
The doctor in the inner room was still treating Ning Yuanzhou, but here a group of people surrounded the old housekeeper, wanting to find out what was going on.
The eldest young master, Ning Yuan, also stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Uncle Fu, now is not the time to hide anything. If something happens to father, can you bear the responsibility?"
The old butler closed his eyes dejectedly, not knowing what to do.
He wanted to say it, but he knew that some things can be said and some things cannot be said. The master was still alive. If he knew that he acted on his own and told everything that happened today, he would probably kick him out of the Ning family.
However, before the old housekeeper could answer, he heard the servant outside the door come in and report, "It's bad, it's bad, Master, Madam, something terrible has happened..."
Mrs. Zhou ignored the old housekeeper and hurriedly asked someone to come in. She shouted angrily, "Why are you so flustered? What happened?"
A servant came hurriedly and knelt on the ground to report:
"Madam, today was supposed to be the day for the shopkeepers of our various branches to come into the city to report their accounts. I followed the housekeeper's instructions and settled them in the Qinghui Inn, which is owned by the Ning family. However, unexpectedly, in the evening, the dozen or so shopkeepers met up to drink at a brothel, and on their way back, they were murdered..."
what?
Zhou just felt dizzy.
It took me a long time to realize what had happened!
This is in Lin'an!
Lin'an is the territory of their Ning family.
Who dares to kill someone from the Ning family on their territory?
The old shopkeeper was shocked.
It seems like I have glimpsed the truth.
Who else could it be besides that person?
It must be that person!
At the same time, a doctor's cry came from the inner room, "Master Ning is awake!"
