Chapter 122: The Truth

The person who spoke to Yang Ning was none other than the little kid who was lying on the ground and being beaten with a stick just now. The little kid that Yang Ning had been looking for since entering the palace.

Behind Xiao Lezi, close to the palace door, the eunuch holding a stick was lying on the ground motionless. The red lacquered wooden stick fell out of the palace. Yang Ning looked back again. Another eunuch holding a stick was also lying in the distance. There was no sound on the ground.

Could it be that these two eunuchs were beaten away by Xiao Lezi? Yang Ning looked at Xiao Lezi with some uncertainty. He hesitated and said: "Lezi, you..."

Compared with before, Xiao Lezi's face is paler and his figure is thinner. His delicate eyes exude a colder light. And his whole body exudes a hint of vagueness, but But it has a refreshing chill.

Xiao Lezi pursed his thin lips and said: "Whoever wants to kill you must die..." These two short sentences conveyed a strong and cold murderous intention.

Yang Ning couldn't help but be secretly shocked: How did Xiao Lezi become like this? How did he kill the two sturdy eunuchs holding sticks? Looking at Teng Xiang and others, they looked like they had seen a ghost. Could it be that Xiao Lezi had learned What awesome martial arts.

Thinking of the "Broken Jade Book" that he had given to Xiao Lezi, Yang Ning couldn't help but wonder. Could it be that he had already mastered the "Broken Jade Book".

However, if Xiao Lezi really learned the powerful martial arts in this book, why did he just keep lying on the ground and let others beat him without fighting back? But looking at Xiao Lezi's current appearance, it doesn't look like he was injured. Could it be because his martial arts skills were high enough that he could easily resist being hit by such a thick wooden stick?

For a moment, Yang Ning's heart was full of doubts. He hadn't seen Xiao Lezi for so long. Now when he saw her, Xiao Lezi shocked him so much.

Xiao Lezi looked at Teng Xiang and others with feminine and delicate eyes. The cold eyes made people shudder. "Brother Ning, it's okay if they beat me. I didn't want to argue with them, but they have the intention to kill you. .They will also die."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Ning saw with his own eyes the strange scene that Teng Xiang and others had seen just now. He only felt a blur in front of his eyes. Xiao Lezi's figure was like a wisp of smoke. He quickly floated towards Teng Xiang and others. He looked around But it was Teng Xiang who gained the momentum.

"Slow down..." Yang Ning shouted hurriedly.

In the blink of an eye, Teng Xiang had no time to react. Xiao Lezi's white and slender palms had already reached his forehead. As soon as he heard Yang Ning's shout, he stopped there abruptly. He was just a little bit away. printed on Teng Xiang's forehead.

Xiao Lezi turned his head slightly and looked at Yang Ning. His expression was full of confusion and he said: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Lezi had obviously stopped moving, but what was strange was that Teng Xiang froze there with a horrified expression on his face, motionless, and even forgot to run away.

Yang Ning thought Teng Xiang was frightened. He said to Xiao Lezi: "Lezi, we can't kill this bitch. It will cause unnecessary trouble. Just because he lynched himself in the Ancestral Temple, we can do it." It was justifiable to kill him."

"Okay. If you don't want to kill me, I won't." Xiao Lezi retracted his hand lightly.

Yang Ning looked at Teng Xiang again, but saw that his expression was still frightened. As if he had lost his support, he suddenly collapsed to the ground. Then a stench came from under him. Teng Xiang was actually frightened by Xiao Lezi Incontinence of urine and feces.

Yang Ning couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't expect that Teng Xiang, who usually looked sinister and deep, would be so helpless in a life-and-death situation.

At this time, several of Teng Xiang's eunuchs were too scared to move. Wang An, on the other hand, looked at Xiao Lezi with a horrified expression.

Xiao Lezi suddenly moved again. This time the target was Wang An. Wang An had no time to react. Xiao Lezi grabbed the skirt of his clothes and lifted him up. He threw it in front of Yang Ning like trash. He asked Yang Ning: " Where is this person?" It seems that Xiao Lezi heard the conversation between Wang An and Yang Ning just now.

Faced with how to deal with Wang An, Yang Ning hesitated for a while. Facing a general like Bu Chang, Yang Ning could order and kill without hesitation. But when facing Wang An, Yang Ning was a little hesitant. He couldn't do it. Although he hated people who betrayed him the most, Wang An was just a teenager at best, a little eunuch at the lowest level in the palace. Subconsciously, Yang Ning regarded him as a weak person. Weak person. Yang Ning's heart has never been so hard or ruthless.

Yang Ning remained silent for a long time. Wang An suddenly seemed to have come to his senses. He first turned around and glared at Xiao Lezi fiercely. Then he shouted angrily at Yang Ning: "What are you still hesitating about? Since I betrayed you, I That’s when I thought of it. It’s just a matter of death.”

Xiao Lezi felt chilled. It seemed that he had murderous intentions. But Yang Ning didn't say anything, but he couldn't take action.

Yang Ning was a little surprised by the courage Wang An showed at this time. Unexpectedly, Wang An was much stronger than Teng Xiang at this critical moment.

"Let him go." Yang Ning sighed softly and said to Xiao Lezi, "It's not for anything else. Just because he helped me in the first place. He helped me search for you everywhere."

But Wang An said angrily: "I don't need your pity. Why don't you kill me? Are you leaving me in this world for others to laugh at?"

Yang Ning looked at him with some pity and said: 'Go away. Leave this palace. Don't let me see you again in my life."

"You let me go. Haha. Where can I go? Except this palace. Where can I go as a useless person?" Wang An yelled. He looked like he was crazy. Suddenly, he jumped up and slammed the His head hit the thick dragon-carved palace pillar a few meters away. He actually wanted to commit suicide.

Yang Ning didn't expect Wang An to be so violent. He knew he had no time to stop him, so he hurriedly shouted to Xiao Lezi: "Stop him quickly."

Xiao Lezi, however, stood still.

"Bang."

Wang An's head slammed against the palace pillar, making a frightening sound.

Wang An's body was soft and slippery on the ground. His head was bleeding profusely. He turned his head with great effort and wanted to look at Yang Ning. However, his neck no longer had the strength to turn it into position. He turned halfway. He said weakly: " I owe you what I owe you. I'll pay you back..." After saying that, he suddenly froze and lay on the ground and died.

Looking at Wang An's body, Yang Ning stood blankly for a while. He couldn't tell what he was feeling. Suddenly, he turned to Xiao Lezi angrily and said, "Lezi, didn't I ask you to stop him? What did you do?" How...sigh."

Xiao Lezi was silent for a while and then said coldly: "Those who betray you deserve to die even more."

Yang Ning couldn't help but be speechless for a while.

At this moment, there was a burst of chaotic footsteps outside the palace. Then a group of people rushed in one after another. There were guards, eunuchs, and some ministers wearing official uniforms.

Yang Ning glanced at those people and couldn't help being surprised. Among the people who came were not only Zhang Cheng, whom he asked his mistress to find, but also Xiang Zhong and other eunuchs. Mou Tai, Zhang Weinian and other guards. There was also Meng Tong, Feng Bao and two others. There is also a minister with a strange appearance and a big beard who is wearing a first-grade crane suit. From that look, he is clearly Gao Gong, the second assistant minister of the current cabinet. This is the first time Yang Ning has seen this Gao Gong. Behind him stood a middle-aged minister with a fair complexion and an elegant look. His official uniform was also of the highest quality. There were also a number of other officials, large and small.

Damn it. It seems that I made a mistake. I asked the mistress to find so many people at once. The cabinet room is on the side of the Meridian Gate. It must be Zhang Cheng, Mou Tai and the others who alerted Gao Gong when they left the Meridian Gate. When we came to the Imperial Ancestral Temple at the Meridian Gate, these people must have alerted the officials on duty in the Sixth Department and Sixth Section in the vicinity. So many people had just arrived at once. Now there was a lot of excitement.

When they saw the situation in the main hall clearly, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

"What, what, what's going on?" Gao Gong asked angrily. His big beard was like autumn grass on the prairie, trembling.

But Meng Tong saw Teng Xiang's frightened look on his face. He also saw a few corpses. He glared at the fish bubble eyes and said angrily to Yang Ning: "Yang Ning, you are almost rebelling. This is the important place of the Imperial Ancestral Temple. .You actually acted like this and killed people. I will punish all nine of your clans..."

Although Feng Bao was also surprised, he naturally spoke to Yang Ning. He frowned and said: "Eunuch Meng, you are still the chief of ceremonies. You are so unbearable. It is not certain what the actual situation will be. How can you I can't blame Eunuch Yang for once."

The fair-faced first-grade minister next to Gao Gong said coldly: "No matter who is responsible, this kind of thing happened in the important place of the Imperial Ancestral Temple, where the royal family worshiped their ancestors. This is the first time in the hundreds of years since the Ming Dynasty began. The guilty must be punished. Severe punishment."

This man was quite decent-looking, but he had a strong official accent. Looking at his appearance, Yang Ning already knew in his mind: This man was probably the father of Zhang Wenkang, the talented man in white. Zhang Siwei, who had recently joined the cabinet, was also the father. Lan Feifeng said that the natural backstage boss was "worse than an animal".

Gao Gong frowned and said to Yang Ning: "This must be Eunuch Yang, the newly appointed second eunuch of the Supervisor of Ceremonies. Since you are here, please explain what is going on."

This Gao Gong had a bad tone towards Yang Ning. Yang Ning sneered and said, "Master Gao, you can't ask me about this matter. You'd better ask Eunuch Teng what's going on."

Meng Tong immediately walked up to Teng Xiang, but Teng Xiang still sat there blankly. Meng Tong said angrily: "Teng Xiang, tell me, what's going on." As he said that, he must have smelled the crotch of Teng Xiang's pants. The smell of feces and urine made me frown. I took a step back in disgust.

Teng Xiang's eyes like dead fish finally started to move. He slowly looked at Meng Tong. He suddenly grinned and reached out to touch his lower body. Then he slowly stretched out his hand stained with feces and urine towards Meng Tong: "Hey. Hehe. I... I'll treat you to food. Don't kill me."

Meng Tong hurriedly backed away to avoid being stained by Teng Xiang's hand. Teng Xiang smiled "hehe" again and said: "You... don't want to eat. I will eat." As he said that, he actually stretched out his hand that was stained with feces and urine. At the mouth, he stuck out his tongue and licked it.

Everyone present was disgusted and couldn't help but look at each other. Yang Ning was even more surprised. He didn't expect that Teng Xiang would be frightened crazy by Xiao Lezi. Just now, he thought that Teng Xiang was just frightened for a moment.

Gao Gong stroked his beard and said to Yang Ning: "Eunuch Yang, everyone has seen it now. This Teng Xiang has gone crazy. It seems that I can only ask you about this matter."

"Everyone, since Teng Xiang has gone crazy, he has escaped. Then I will tell you the truth. Today I came out of Princess Funing Palace. I wanted to go to the palace, but I met Funing on the way. The eunuch of the palace, Xiao Sanzi, and I reported that Teng Xiang, the general manager of the Sixth Palace, led a group of people to the Taimiao Temple. Among them, Wang An, the eunuch of Funing Palace, was also with them. As you all know, I used to be the slave of the princess. Therefore, I have always been more concerned about the affairs of Funing Palace. I heard that Wang An was also with Eunuch Teng and the others, so I decided to come and have a look..."

Zhang Siwei smiled coldly and interrupted abruptly: "Eunuch Yang, even if Wang An and Eunuch Teng are together, there is nothing for you to be surprised about."

Yang Ning glanced at Zhang Siwei lightly and said: "Forgive me, Yang Ning, for being short-sighted. I don't know who this gentleman is..."

Gao Gong replied: "This is Mr. Zhang from the cabinet. He is..."

Before Gao Gong could finish the introduction, Yang Ning was the first to say: "Oh. I only know one person in the cabinet, Mr. Zhang Juzheng. He is someone I have admired for a long time. I think this is the one."

This was absolutely true. Zhang Siwei's face immediately turned the color of pig liver. Feng Bao added fuel to the fire beside him and said: "Haha. Eunuch Yang doesn't know something. This is not Mr. Zhang Juzheng. He is a suave and wealthy man. Mr. Zhang Siwei."

Yang Ning said coldly: "I don't care about Zhang Siwei or Zhang Bawei. Since Mr. Gao asked me to explain the situation, others had better shut up and listen to me."

"You...you are simply too arrogant." Zhang Siwei said, trembling with anger.

Gao Gong also frowned and said: "Eunuch Yang, this is too rude of you. After all, Mr. Zhang is also a cabinet bachelor. How can you disrespect him so much."

Yang Ning said disdainfully: "Master Gao, you must have made a mistake. When I was talking, he interrupted rudely. I think it's not that I don't respect him. It's that he doesn't respect me."

Zhang Siwei was about to say more. Gao Gong waved his hand impatiently and said, "Okay, okay. You'd better keep talking."

Yang Ning glanced at Zhang Siwei coldly before continuing: "When I came into the Ancestral Temple, I saw our Chief Teng sitting on that chair. Behind him were these followers. Two eunuchs with big shoulders and round waists. He was holding a red-lacquered wooden stick used in the "Ting Zang" and was about to hit Wang An, the young eunuch of Funing Palace. I was shocked when I saw him. I quickly stopped him and asked him why he used this imperial temple where the royal family worshiped their ancestors. The important place was regarded as a place for lynching. Teng Xiang knew that this crime was not a trivial matter, so he actually had evil intentions. He wanted to kill me and the young eunuch who was sweeping the temple to silence us. Wang An acted bravely and killed two eunuchs holding sticks first. Then he went to fight for Teng Xiang. Although Teng Xiang was not hurt, he was frightened into this state. Wang An knew that he had killed someone in the Ancestral Temple, and he would not be able to escape the death penalty, so he committed suicide by hitting a pillar. The whole thing This is the process.”

Yang Ning finished speaking in one breath. These were all the things he had thought of eagerly just now. Although there were some loopholes, he couldn't care less. It can't be said that it was Xiao Lezi who killed him.

"He lied." As soon as Yang Ning finished speaking, one of Teng Xiang's eunuchs immediately said to Meng Tongtong: "Eunuch Meng, you have to make the decision for us and avenge Eunuch Teng. Yang Ning is lying. We He didn't beat Wang An at all. It wasn't Wang An who frightened Eunuch Teng. It was him." The eunuch pointed at Xiao Teng. "He was the one who beat the two eunuchs with sticks to death. He also wanted to kill Eunuch Teng. .He, he, he is not human at all. He is a devil."

Xiao Lezi stood there, his cold expression unchanged, as if what the accompanying eunuch said had nothing to do with him.

Yang Ning sneered and said: "Everyone, this dog is just biting. Since he said so, you can ask him first who are these two stick-wielding eunuchs. Why are they holding the 'Tingzhang'? An ominous object such as a red-lacquered wooden stick entered the Ancestral Temple. He said that it was the little eunuch who killed people. Then you can take a look at the size of the little eunuch. How could he kill two big and round eunuchs if he was so thin? On the contrary, this Wang An may not look very strong, but he can do some kung fu, and he also has strength. Xiang Zhong, the manager of Funing Palace, and others can prove it."

"I prove that this Wang An did know some kung fu when he entered the palace. Therefore, he did the most night watch work arranged by Funing Palace." Xiang Zhong immediately said seriously. It was more true than the truth.

The accompanying eunuch was about to retort when Feng Bao shouted coldly: "You bitch. First tell me who brought this red lacquered wooden stick in."

The accompanying eunuch murmured: "Yes... yes... Eunuch Teng ordered us to bring him here."

"Bold bitches. In this important place of the Imperial Ancestral Temple, you dare to set up a private execution chamber. Come on, arrest people." Feng Bao said with a stern look on his face. He finally showed his majesty as the biggest spy leader...the factory director of Dongchang.

Immediately outside the hall, several Dongchang fans rushed in. The leader was a burly man in brocade clothes, with a beard on his face and a very rough appearance.

The burly man said coldly: "Tied."

Several Dongchang gangsters rushed forward, pressed their necks, wiped their shoulders, and cut their hands behind their backs. They skillfully tied up several eunuchs under Teng Xiang.

"I am unjustly accused. Unjustly accused. Eunuch Meng, save me. Save me. It was indeed the little eunuch who killed him. Wang An just surrendered to us and gave us a message. He said that this little eunuch..." the eunuch who followed him shouted in a hissing voice. road.

Meng Tong shouted and asked, "What's wrong with this little eunuch?"

The attendant eunuch gritted his teeth and said: "He said that this little eunuch has a good relationship with Yang Ning. Eunuch Teng led people to arrest this little eunuch. He wanted to give this little eunuch some color first, so he ordered us to fight this The little eunuch had just been beaten with a dozen sticks when Yang Ning rushed in."

"That's enough." Yang Ning suddenly shouted: "Everyone, this bitch won't tell lies. Since he said that this little eunuch received more than a dozen sticks, then according to the effect of the imperial staff's stick, this little eunuch will The eunuch can’t even stand up right now. But look at this little eunuch..."

As he spoke, Yang Ning winked at Xiao Lezi. Xiao Lezi naturally understood. He suddenly took a few steps and jumped a few times. Then he walked back to Yang Ning as if nothing had happened.
