The next morning, Ning Xiaochuan came to Kong Zhenxuan's room, ready to discuss with Kong Zhenxuan what to do next.

Before Ning Xiaochuan could speak, Kong Zhenxuan frowned and said, "Sir, I have something I don't know whether I should say."

"Come on, why are you so polite to me? Just say what you want to say." Ning Xiaochuan said calmly.

Kong Zhenxuan looked at Ning Xiaochuan and took a deep breath, "Sir, have you met Miss Yu before coming to Qiancheng? The way I saw you yesterday, it didn't look like it was the first time we met."

Ning Xiaochuan shook his head helplessly. He knew that someone would definitely find out the clues, "Actually, it's almost the same to say that I have seen it before, and to say that I haven't seen it before. In short, it was just a few words made by accident."

"Why haven't I heard you say this before?"

Ning Xiaochuan shrugged, "Because I only found out yesterday that she is the daughter of Zhou Mu, and yesterday was also the second time we met."

Kong Zhenxuan cupped his hands towards Ning Xiaochuan and said, "Please forgive me, sir. What I just said had no other meaning. Please don't misunderstand me."

Ning Xiaochuan nodded slightly. Although Kong Zhenxuan said this, he was still a little unhappy in his heart, "Yes, I came to you also for Lord Yu's business. Yesterday I met Lord Yu. From his words, I felt that he

I’m not really willing to help Kong Zhendao.”

"What? You went to see Mr. Yu. This is too risky." Kong Zhenxuan said in surprise after hearing this.

Ning Xiaochuan calmly shook his head, "If you don't take this risk, I'm afraid the position of the head of the Kong family will not be in your hands."

"To be honest, young master, I don't care about the position of the head of the family. If someone else succeeds, I will never say anything." Kong Zhenxuan said helplessly, "If you take the position of the head of the family, it will be difficult to leave Qiancheng Mountain in your life.

Well, when I left Yindu, I said I would protect you all the way, and I don’t want to lose my protection late at night and break my trust."

"Then besides you, who else is suitable for the position of head of this family?" Ning Xiaochuan looked at Kong Zhenxuan doubtfully and said with a frown.

Kong Zhenxuan's gaze turned to the window, and following Kong Zhenxuan's gaze, he saw Kong Luyan sitting alone on a stone bench reading a book, with such a concentrated look that people couldn't help but sigh, there really is someone in this world who can

The mesmerizing display is so vivid.

"Zhang Xi said that if the Kong Confucian sect wants to continue to prosper in the future, the key lies in Lu Yan." Kong Zhenxuan looked at Kong Luyan, his eyes full of hope and hope.

Ning Xiaochuan sighed, "So you want to take over the position of head of the family and give it to Brother Kong?"

"Only in this way can he sit in this position." Kong Zhenxuan said with emotion, "Although he does not have the blood of the Kong family, he has the spirit of Confucianism. With him sitting in the front city, I can rest assured."

"Actually, there is a better way." Ning Xiaochuan smiled slightly and looked at Kong Zhenxuan, "This way can allow Brother Kong to directly take the position of the head of the family and impress all the disciples in the sect."

"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."

"But before that, we have more important things to do, and that is to convince Lord Yu."

…

After Ning Xiaochuan left, Yu Baijie didn't sleep all night. Indeed, what Ning Xiaochuan said touched his pain point. A boy of only seventeen years old could actually say such words, which somewhat surprised Yu Baijie for this young man from an aristocratic family.

But getting back to the subject, what Ning Xiaochuan said still makes sense. Yu Baijie's words and deeds not only represent himself, he is also the parent and official of the people of Qingzhou.

If he used his power to make Kong Zhendao ascend the throne today, perhaps as Ning Xiaochuan said, the Kong Confucianism sect would be destroyed. By then, it would be useless for him to regret it.

"Dad, did you not sleep well last night? You look so haggard." After walking in the yard for a while, Yu Xining walked out, wearing a white dress, which looked particularly beautiful.

Yu Baijie shook his head helplessly, "It's nothing, maybe I'm not used to it, it's okay."

"Master Yu..." As the two of them were talking, they saw Kong Zhendao coming over with a lot of gifts.

Seeing this scene, Yu Baijie felt a little unhappy in his heart, but he still walked over and greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Kong, what are you doing?"

"Master Yu has traveled thousands of miles to come to my front city. I am worried that the master and the young lady will not get used to living together, so I came here to bring some bedding." Kong Zhendao said with an cupped hand.

Seeing the disciples of the Kong family behind her holding large and small bags in their hands, Yu Xining looked at Yu Baijie's expression next to her, and silently retracted the hand she just extended.

"Mr. Kong, I appreciate your kindness, but I cannot accept this thing. I have also lived in Qiancheng Mountain for several years, and I am still used to this kind of life." Yu Baijie said with cupped hands.

After listening to Yu Baijie's words, Kong Zhendao smiled awkwardly, "But Lord Yu, I have brought this thing with you, so you won't let me take it back again."

Yu Baijie looked at the Confucian disciple in front of him awkwardly, and shook his head helplessly, "Xining, please accept these things."

"Yes." Yu Xining walked over and accepted these gifts. Seeing Yu Baijie accepting these things, Kong Zhendao smiled from ear to ear.

"Master Yu, the election ceremony for the head of our Kong family will be held in three days. You will have to step in to take charge then." Kong Zhendao also revealed his true purpose after seeing Yu Baijie accept his things.

As the saying goes, no reward will be received for no merit. Kong Zhendao must have something to ask for when he gave himself something in a good manner.

Yu Baijie nodded slightly, "The election for the position of head of the family is an internal matter of the Kong family. I am here to just watch and not say much."

"That's natural. As long as Mr. Yu is present, I will make my own arrangements for the rest." Kong Zhendao said politely.

After a few words of greeting, Kong Zhendao handed over and left. When Kong Zhendao left, Yu Xining pouted and said, "Why is Mr. Kong so arrogant..."

"This is making it difficult for us to get off the ground." Yu Baijie looked at the pile of things behind him and said with a frown.

Taking people's money to eliminate disasters for others, Kong Zhendao will count on Yu Baijie this time.

Yu Xining looked at the things behind her and suddenly felt that these were not that good, "Dad, I think you should have a good chat with Mr. Ning. The purpose of your coming to Qiancheng Mountain is definitely not for these things. You are carrying

It’s a favor, not a burden.”

Yu Baijie looked at his precious daughter, and instantly felt that he did not live as well as his daughter, but how could this favor be repaid so easily?

"Daughter, what you said makes sense, but dad can't do this. Since I have agreed to Mr. Kong now, dad will have to show up no matter what in three days." Yu Baijie said with a bitter smile.

Seeing her father like this, Yu Xining couldn't bear it, "Dad..."

At this time, Yu Xining suddenly thought of Ning Xiaochuan. Perhaps only Ning Xiaochuan could break this situation.

…

At this time, Ning Xiaochuan was still thinking about how to persuade Yu Baijie to retreat from the front city. Suddenly he saw Yu Xining walking over in white clothes, attracting the attention of many disciples along the way. This can be said to be the former

The first girl they had close contact with besides Kong Ying appeared on Chengshan Mountain.

"Ning Xiaochuan, Ning Xiaochuan..." Standing outside the courtyard gate, Yu Xining shouted Ning Xiaochuan's name, regardless of the looks of the disciples around her.

When Ning Xiaochuan saw it was Yu Xining, he walked out quickly, frowned and said, "What are you doing here? Aren't you afraid of being seen gossiping?"

"What am I afraid of? I came to see you for something..." Yu Xining said anxiously.

Ning Xiaochuan looked around and pulled Yu Xining to a corner where no one was around, "What's the matter? You're so anxious."

"Mr. Kong Zhendao Kong went to our courtyard this morning to find my father. He gave my father many things and asked him to attend the ceremony three days later." Yu Xining told everything when they met.

After hearing this, Ning Xiaochuan looked a little solemn, "I think Mr. Yu must have accepted it, because he can't refuse."

Yu Xining nodded, "Yes, what should we do now?"

Ning Xiaochuan walked around, lowering his head and thinking. The key to their persuasion now was the hurdle in Yu Baijie's heart. Yu Baijie had always wanted to be a perfect person. He worked conscientiously during his tenure and had a good reputation among the people.

Because of this reputation, he did not refuse when Kong Zhendao invited him to come to Qiancheng Mountain. He did not want to bear the reputation of being ungrateful.

Thinking of this, Ning Xiaochuan suddenly stood up and looked at Yu Xining, "I have a way. Now go back and tell Mr. Yu that I will come to him tonight and let him wait until tonight to make a decision."

Seeing Ning Xiaochuan's confident look, Yu Xining nodded helplessly. The key was that now she had no other choice but to believe in Ning Xiaochuan.

"Okay, I'll go back right away." Yu Xining immediately turned around and left without even saying goodbye.

Ning Xiaochuan smiled helplessly, thinking of Kong Zhendao's words, and then looked at Kong Luyan in the yard in the distance. Maybe this was their only chance.

…

Night falls.

Yu Xining took Yu Baijie and waited for Ning Yan in the hall. Because she didn't have a good rest yesterday, Yu Baijie was already very sleepy.

"Xining, can we talk about anything tomorrow? Dad is too tired now." Yu Baijie said helplessly.

Yu Xining kept looking out the door while pulling Yu Baijie to prevent him from leaving.

"Dad, don't be anxious. Just wait, it will be here soon."

Yu Baijie sat helplessly on a chair, drinking tea to refresh himself. Suddenly, a figure appeared under the moonlight. Yu Xining was so happy that she pulled Yu Baijie up and said, "Dad, here it comes, here it comes."

Yu Baijie stood up and looked out the door. When he saw it was Ning Xiaochuan, he couldn't help but frown and looked at Yu Xining, "Are you looking for Ning Xiaochuan?"

Yu Xining pursed her lips and nodded. Yu Baijie was angry and helpless, "Why are you looking for him?"

"It's not just for you. Don't worry, Mr. Ning said he has a way to get us out of the current predicament." Yu Xining said, blinking her big eyes.

Yu Baijie was helpless, looking at Ning Xiaochuan who had already arrived at the door, and slowly shook his head, "What can I do about this?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Xiaochuan's voice sounded outside the door, "Of course there is a way."
