In her previous life, Ning Baishuang had never shown any martial arts, so Ning Rongxue had no way of knowing that her martial arts skills were so high.
A month ago, Ning Rongxue knelt down and kowtowed to Bai Shuang in public, until her forehead bled.
This can be described as a total loss of face in the Zhenguo government.
But Ning Rongxue didn't expect that Bai Shuang would stab himself and use force to force his way into the palace!
When she heard the news, Ning Rongxue's face almost cramped with laughter.
Later, although "Ning Baishuang" came back safely, Ning Rongxue only regarded him as the emperor to give Ning Dingan face.
As soon as "Ning Baishuang" returned to Zhenguo Mansion, she never left the courtyard again.
After discussing it with Aunt Lang, Ning Rongxue agreed that this was some kind of order from the emperor.
She was spared the death penalty, but must be punished.
After that, Ning Ding'an was ill in bed, and "Ning Baishuang" never came to see her, which confirmed their idea.
Therefore, Aunt Lang and Ning Rongxue made a plan early.
Let Ning Rongxue's filial piety contrast with "Ning Baishuang's" unfilial piety.
Let Ning Ding'an deal with "Ning Baishuang", this is the most lethal move.
The scene before them was just as they expected.
The corners of Ning Rongxue's mouth curled up, revealing a fleeting smile.
Then she put on an anxious and worried look and grabbed Ning Ding'an's clothes.
"Dad, sister is right.
Your current body is not stable enough, so please don't get angry over this trivial matter.
If your sister doesn't come to take care of you or visit you, she must have some unavoidable reasons.
Sister, please say a few soft words to daddy, don’t make daddy angry!”
At the end, Ning Rongxue's words already contained a tone of complaining about "Ning Baishuang"'s ignorance.
"Ning Baishuang" looked at Ning Rongxue intently for a few seconds, then turned around and entered the room without saying a word.
"Miss..." Qingwu also felt that "Ning Baishuang" was very disrespectful to the master by doing this.
Aunt Lang turned Ning Ding'an's ears off again and made a fool of herself: "Master, look at...
I can't control her, she is my legitimate daughter after all.
But you, sir, can control it, and only you can control it.
If I don't care about it anymore, I think she will jump on your head sooner or later!"
Ning Rongxue shook her head, well-behaved and sensible, "Mom, don't say that again.
I believe my sister is not that kind of person, and my sister was not like this before."
Ning Rongxue seemed to be saying good things to "Ning Baishuang", but in fact she was secretly mocking and belittling "Ning Baishuang".
She and Aunt Lang sang a double act, so as to arouse Ning Ding'an's anger towards "Ning Baishuang" to the greatest extent.
"Ning Baishuang, come out!" Ning Ding'an fell into the trap and was furious, her heart aching.
"Ning Baishuang" came out of the house soon.
There was a letter in her hand.
"For you." She handed the letter to Ning Ding'an.
"If you have anything to say, why don't you just say it? It's not sincere at all to write a letter." Aunt Lang rolled her eyes.
Ning Ding'an pointed at "Ning Baishuang" and said, "Kneel down!"
"Ning Baishuang" didn't care, she just stuffed the letter into Ning Ding'an's arms, then turned around and entered the house.
This time, she closed the door firmly.
Then there was no movement inside.
"Dad, don't be angry, otherwise you should read what is written in this letter first."
Seeing that Ning Ding'an was about to faint from anger, Ning Rongxue quickly helped him calm down and said sweetly.
Ning Dingan opened the envelope angrily and took out the letter paper inside.
When his eyes first fell on the words inside, he froze.
Goosebumps suddenly appeared all over my body.
"Dad? What's wrong with you?" Ning Rongxue, who was stroking Ning Ding'an's back to help him feel better, immediately discovered that something was wrong with him.
Ning Rongxue wanted to take a look at what was written in the letter.
But she just moved closer to Ning Ding'an, and Ning Ding'an decisively put the letter away.
Don't let her see it.
"father……"
"Let's go back first." Ning Dingan said without hesitation.
This sudden unexpected situation caught Ning Rongxue and Aunt Lang by surprise.
After Ning Dingan returned to the house, he sent everyone out.
Then he took out the letter and opened it with trembling fingers to read.
This handwriting was very familiar to Ning Ding'an.
This is...the emperor's word!
…
Towards the palace.
"You said that after Ning Ding'an got the letter, his attitude suddenly changed and he would never pursue Ning Baishuang again?" Yan Chao frowned, feeling that there must be something fishy about this matter.
The secret guard knelt down in the hall and said, "Yes, Your Majesty.
And the subordinates felt that something seemed to have changed in Ning Baishuang.
But I can’t tell you what the specific changes are.”
Yan Chao's frown deepened.
A month ago, Ning Baishuang broke into the imperial study, but her father did not punish her;
During this month, Ning Baishuang stayed behind closed doors, which was very abnormal;
Ning Ding'an went to see Ning Baishuang today. According to her past temper, she would never talk to Ning Ding'an so submissively;
And the last letter she took out was able to extinguish Ning Ding'an's rage!
unusual.
There are various signs that there must be something he doesn't know about.
For some reason, Yan Chao suddenly thought of the great general who had fallen from the sky and no one in Kyoto knew his true identity.
Yan Chao's heart tightened and his palms clenched.
no, I can not.
That's a battlefield!
Even though Ning Baishuang was highly skilled in martial arts, her father would not let her go to lead the Ning family army, as a woman who had never led an army in war.
But the more Yan Chao thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
His heart, which had been as silent as a pool of stagnant water, began to become chaotic.
He couldn't sit still, he couldn't stop his desperate imagination.
As soon as he closed his eyes, the bloody scene of Bai Shuang dying on the battlefield appeared in his mind.
"Prepare the carriage!" Yan Chao exhaled heavily, his dark eyes clear and determined, "Pack up, let's go to the border."
…
Although one month is not enough for the army to reach the border, the remaining journey is not too far.
We only need to travel for another seven or eight days to reach the battlefield.
When night fell, the army stopped and set up camp on the spot.
Bai Shuang took a bowl with a chipped mouth and went to the cook to ask for a bowl of hot water.
"General, the edge of your bowl is already torn. Please give me a new one for you!" the cook said warmly and flatteringly.
Bai Shuang's voice was cold, "Supplies are tight, so there's no need to replace them if they can still be used."
The cook flattered him and said, "You are such a good general. You are like everyone else in everything and you never do anything special."
After saying that, he handed over a bowl of hot water, "General, the hot water you want."
"Good general? Don't do anything special? This is really the biggest joke in Dongli Kingdom!" A burst of obviously sarcastic laughter came loudly.
A man with small eyes came riding a horse, carrying a bundle in his hand, which smelled faintly of blood.
The small-eyed man's eyes sparkled with an evil light.
He shouted to other soldiers: "Do you want to know why our general has been drinking nothing but hot water these days?"
