Wei Yong said, "Young Master, don't be anxious … Young Master should not appear in this matter."
Nie Qing asked, "Why?"
He wanted to personally ask Nie Yang why he treated him this way.
How had Nie Qing wronged Nie Yang in the slightest?
Were their many years of brotherly love all fake?
Wei Yong said, "According to what that mountain ghost said, Nie Yang has the help of an evil demon. If you appear, how can the evil demon not guess our intentions? I'm afraid we'll alert the enemy! When this old subject captures Nie Yang, there's still time for Young Master to say or ask anything. "
Nie Qing said in shame, "This is this son-in-law's fault, I didn't think of this."
Wei Yong said, "After experiencing this, Young Master should understand that a person's heart is hard to predict. Nie Yang … take this as a lesson … "
Nie Qing thought of something, his face pale as he said, "Father's poison … was really done by him?"
Wei Yong said, "Before the late master died, he sent someone to find a bottle of poison in Nie Yang's study. This poison was the same as the late master's. However, this alone is not enough to convict Nie Yang. After that, the evidence of Nie Yang's scheme to murder Young Master can be considered irrefutable. "
Nie Qing's eyes were as red as a rabbit's, tears rolling down his face, "In that case … it was I who killed Father …"
Wei Yong said, "Even the late master and this old subject were deceived by Nie Yang, much less the inexperienced Young Master at that time."
This matter could not be blamed on Nie Qing, it could only be blamed on the vicious and merciless Nie Yang.
Because they had to support the spirit, Nie Yang and the others did not walk quickly. The men sent by Wei Yong and Wei Yong caught up not long after the sky turned dark.
Nie Yang pretended to be surprised, "What happened?"
The messenger said in panic, "Reporting to Lord, something big happened in the camp. At noon, Military Advisor Wei and Registrar Fan died one after the other."
Even though Nie Yang had been mentally prepared, he was still shocked speechless by this news.
However, the people who died were 'Father-in-law' and 'Father's important officials.' Nie Yang was now using Nie Qing's identity and could not remain indifferent.
He cried, saying, "Father-in-law and the others are more than that … Father is gone, they don't want to live anymore …"
Nie Yang's acting was obviously at the level of a Best Actor. He cried at the drop of a hat and acted with sincerity, like another Nie Qing.
Wei Yong and Fan Chen 'sacrificed themselves for their masters' was a major event. Nie Yang took the initiative to meet the messenger and did not bring many people with him.
The messenger was Wei Yong's trusted subordinate. In order not to arouse Nie Yang's and Yao Xie's suspicions, the messenger did not know that Wei Yong and the others were fine. He even thought that the two of them had really committed suicide for their master. Before "sacrificing himself for his master," Wei Yong had left a secret suicide note for "Nie Qing."
Since it was a confidential matter, he naturally had to dismiss his subordinates and hand it over to them alone.
Although Nie Yang was shrewd, Wei Dan was also a wily old fox. In the end, Nie Yang was still one step behind.
"You did —"
Nie Yang opened the letter. Just as he was about to read it, Wei Yong's confidant suddenly rushed forward, covered his mouth, and subdued him.
At this time, a body double that looked very similar to Nie Qing changed into mourning clothes and a bamboo hat, switching identities with Nie Yang.
"Tie him up and gag him."
Just as Nie Yang was about to struggle, several people pounced on him and tied him up. They put a bag as tall as a person and carried him away.
The body double continued to carry Nie Yang's spirit to Bianzhou.
Nie Yang struggled for a while, but realized that it was all in vain, so he simply gave up.
"System … What's going on?"
The System was silent for a long time before it spoke. "There are two possibilities. Either Nie Qing is dead, and Wei Yong did not sacrifice himself for his master, and instead endured the pain to avenge his son-in-law. Or, Nie Qing and Wei Yong are not dead, and your plan has already been exposed by them, and they are now going to capture you and interrogate you. "
Nie Yang's mouth was stuffed with a piece of cloth, and his entire body was curled up in the sack.
"You're saying … Nie Qing and Wei Yong have already seen through our plan?"
The System said. "Yes, it looks like … I've underestimated these ordinary people."
Nie Yang's breathing quickened. The sack was stuffy and hot. He had been placed on the back of a horse, and his internal organs were about to shift.
"Aren't you very powerful? Is there no way to fix this? "
The System was also very angry. This was originally a trap to kill Nie Qing, but it did not expect its host to lose his life.
Although Nie Yang was somewhat annoying and had secretly tried to resist it, the System was still satisfied with Nie Yang.
"There's nothing I can do now."
So what if Nie Yang could escape this time?
He would lose his noble identity and status, and he would have to conceal his identity and hide in the future. The already weak emperor's energy in Nie Yang's body would dissipate completely. To the System, he was useless. The only use he had was for it to continue to absorb the last bit of emperor's energy.
In fact, as one of the candidates to possess emperor's energy, Nie Yang's emperor's energy was no weaker than Jiang Pengji's at the beginning.
If not for Nie Liang's rise and the System's interference, Nie Yang would have become the ruler of the Nie family, and the emperor's energy would have become stronger and stronger along with his status. Who knew that Nie Liang, who should have been content with his lot, would rise and take away Nie Yang's emperor's energy. The other part of the emperor's energy was stolen by the dormant System bit by bit. Nie Yang's luck was getting worse and worse, and now he was in a dead end.
Nie Yang chuckled. "Are you going to give up on me?"
The System said, "It's not that I want to give up on you, it's that you're too disappointing."
Nie Yang said sarcastically, "Then why aren't you leaving?"
The System said, "We've known each other for a while. No matter what, I have to send you on your last journey."
In fact, the System was unwilling to leave only because it was greedy. After all, Nie Yang still had some emperor's energy on him. It couldn't waste it.
When Wei Yong and the other two saw the battered and exhausted Nie Yang, they felt very conflicted.
Nie Qing squatted down and removed the cloth from his mouth. He asked coldly, "Why did you do this?"
Nie Yang didn't struggle, and he couldn't be bothered to quibble on his behalf. He simply told the truth.
"Because of power."
"When you poisoned my father … at that time … was he in your way? How could you be so heartless!"
Nie Qing's chest burned with rage. He grabbed Nie Yang's collar with both hands and lifted him up. His gaze was ferocious.
Nie Yang didn't look him in the eye. He turned his head and said, "It's only a matter of time. He who strikes first gains the upper hand."
Nie Qing was so angry that his vision turned black and his molars chattered. He almost couldn't resist the urge to strangle Nie Yang.
"The so-called brotherly respect … is also for the sake of this scheme?"
"You treat me very well. I'm very grateful." Nie Yang's eyes darkened. He said in a low voice, "However, you only gave me one percent of what you have. What I want is a thousand percent more than what you have. I didn't want to harm you! But … who asked you to block my way? Nie Qing, ask yourself. Is your personality really suitable to be a duke? Pure, weak, naive … the Nie family will only walk towards destruction in your hands. As a descendant of the Nie family, if you can sit in this position, why can't I? "
Everything Nie Liang had was given to him by the Nie family. He didn't fight for it himself. Nie Yang didn't feel guilty taking it for himself.
