Xiao Lan's words had exposed the biggest stain in Ning Jing's life!
Ning Jing's heart skipped a beat, but she had nothing to say. She had indeed drugged Tang Li back then. If it weren't for that freak combination of factors, she probably wouldn't have gotten together with Tang Li.
"Fifth Elder, you dared to leak the secret?" Tang Li was especially angry.
Back then, he had been drugged by Ning Jing and forced into marriage by the Di Clan. In the Tang Sect, other than his parents, only a few Elders knew about it. Without a doubt, Fifth Elder must have told Xiao Lan about it!
Fifth Elder finally regained his senses, but he didn't know how to explain.
"Guards, take this person away for this Sect Master to deal with! The Xiao Clan has a lot of crimes to commit! "Tang Li ordered sternly.
No matter how unreasonable the Elders Council was, they still obeyed the Tang Family. Tang Zijin, the old Sect Master, didn't care about anything, so what could Fifth Elder and the Elders Council do to Tang Li? Moreover, the entire Tang Sect knew that Tang Li had his older brother behind him!
Fifth Elder and Madam Xiao were so hopeless that they had no strength left. They let the guards take them away, but Xiao Lan struggled like a madwoman. "Tang Li, answer me! Answer me! "
"Ning Jing is the same as me! Ning Jing, you touched that drug, so you'll never be clean! "
Ning Jing looked at them expressionlessly, but Tang Li strode in front of Xiao Lan and said Coldly, "Only I know whether Ning Jing is clean or not. It has nothing to do with anyone else, much less you! As for whether you're clean or not, hehe, I don't know, and I don't want to know! "
As he spoke, he took a guard's belt and tied it around Xiao Lan's mouth, making her unable to speak or make a sound.
As for the guard whose belt was taken away, he awkwardly held his pants and ran away.
Fifth Elder suddenly exclaimed, "Sect Master! Sect Master, this subordinate chooses to be a servant. This subordinate is willing to be a servant! "
Would Tang Li still care about Fifth Elder's choice? No!
He looked at the people who were gradually being taken away, and a trace of viciousness flashed across his eyes.
Since the Fifth Elder dared to leak the secret, there was no guarantee that the others would do the same. When that time came, who knew how badly Ning Jing would be scolded?
Rather than letting others spread rumors, he might as well admit it himself. He was drugged. He was willing to be drugged by Ning Jing. So what?
"Guards!" Tang Li shouted.
The attendant hurriedly ran over. "Sect Master."
"Write a few announcements and post them. Say that Xiao Dong offended his superior and disrespected Madam Jing. Xiao Lan harbored evil intentions and seduced me. Fifth Xiao Dong's position as an elder will be abolished, and the entire Xiao clan will be demoted to servants. "
Tang Li thought for a moment, then said, "If you don't want to spread the word, just say that only Ning Jing can drug this Sect Leader. Everyone else should be careful. This Sect Leader will never take a concubine in this lifetime!"
A public notice and a verbal message. Although it didn't explicitly state what Xiao Lan had done, it was enough to make everyone speculate. Xiao Lan could only live forever in rumors and slanders.
When Tang Li said this, the attendant felt awkward. Was the Sect Master really going to put the word "drug" on the table?
Not to mention the guards, even Madam Tang couldn't bear to watch.
"A 'Li, don't mess around! Just punish the entire Xiao clan. Why are you talking about 'drugging'? Isn't that embarrassing? "Madam Tang said unhappily.
Ning Jing's tense face finally couldn't help but reveal a smile. She felt both helpless and happy.
"So what if it's embarrassing? I'm happy!" Tang Li had an indifferent expression. He didn't look like a Sect Leader at all. He was more like a hooligan!
However, it was precisely his shameless behavior that intimidated the elders of the Tang Sect, and also dispelled those who coveted the position of Madam in the Tang Sect.
Perhaps Tang Li's position as Sect Master had been stabilized because of this incident. Tang Li's style was completely different from Tang Zijin's. With Tang Li in charge of the Tang Sect, it was hard to imagine how the Tang Sect's style would develop in the future. Of course, this was all for later.
Madam Tang doted on her son and had never been able to refuse him. Perhaps it was because of Madam Tang's excessive doting and Tang Zijin's excessive strictness that he had long since developed Tang Li's temper. Or perhaps it was because he had been sheltered by Xuanyuan Ye since he was young that Tang Li could have such a carefree temper.
The words "won't take a concubine" had always lingered in Ning Jing's ears. To her, this was definitely the most beautiful words of love in the world, the most important promise. Unfortunately, she couldn't bear it.
She had just made up her mind that she would return Tang Li his freedom. The Tang Sect couldn't restrain him and the Di Clan definitely couldn't restrain him. She was even more unwilling to restrain him.
"Mother, go and find Father. I have something important to tell you." Ning Jing finally spoke.
Tang Li turned around with a puzzled expression. "Ning Jing, what do you have to say to my father?"
His tone showed just how much he disliked Tang Zijin!
"It's very important. I have to … say it seriously." Ning Jing's expression was solemn.
At this moment, Tang Li sensed that something was wrong. Although Ning Jing was usually a very serious woman, her current expression told him that what she was about to say was no small matter.
"Why do you have to tell my parents something important? You can just tell me? "Tang Li walked over and grabbed Ning Jing's hand." Come, let's go back and talk. "
"Ah Li, you …" Mrs. Tang shouted pitifully. She wanted to cry but had no tears.
Ning Jing was hurriedly dragged away by Tang Li and didn't have a chance to say anything.
"This is very important. Tang Li, when I gave birth to my daughter, I had no choice but to use the drug to induce labor. The price is that I can't get pregnant again. I can't give birth to a son for you. "Ning Jing said it out of the blue.
She didn't mention the hardships she suffered during childbirth or the various illnesses she suffered during her confinement after giving birth. She just casually mentioned the result.
Tang Li and Mrs. Tang were stunned. They never thought that the important thing Ning Jing was talking about would be like this!
Tang Li was dumbfounded. Mrs. Tang's face turned pale. She didn't dare to believe it and didn't want to believe it.
If Ning Jing couldn't give birth to a son, then wouldn't the Tang Sect … Wouldn't it be extinct?
Mrs. Tang panicked and murmured, "Ah Li, we have to tell Father about this. We can't …"
Before Mrs. Tang could finish, Tang Li said angrily, "You can't tell him!"
"Ah Li, isn't this a small matter?" Mrs. Tang murmured. She could let Tang Li do whatever he wanted, no matter how big the matter was. However, she couldn't let him mess around with this matter. When it came to carrying on the family line, she couldn't make the decision!
"Mother, even you want to force us to leave?" Tang Li murmured.
As soon as he said this, Mrs. Tang's tears fell. "Mother didn't. Why would Mother, why would I?"
"Tang Li, don't …"
Ning Jing was about to speak when Tang Li interrupted her angrily. "Ning Jing, why did you say it out loud?! Why did you tell them? Are you stupid? "
Ning Jing was at a loss for words. This was probably the first time Tang Li had yelled at her after being together with Tang Li for so long.
Why did she have to say it out loud?
She should have kept it a secret long ago. She should have taken Tang Tang down the mountain and left with Tang Li.
However, she didn't leave. She even went up the mountain.
A few months ago, on the first day she returned to the Tang Sect, she knew that she would have to tell them about this matter one day.
She had no right to hide this matter. This wasn't just about her and Tang Li. It was about the Tang Sect!
She couldn't help Tang Li refuse to take a concubine and hide this matter at the same time.
There were three ways to be unfilial, but having no descendants was the worst! No matter how much Tang Li and Tang Zijin fought, they were still father and son. She couldn't frame Tang Li for being unfilial. Otherwise, she would have taken Tang Li away from the Tang Sect a long time ago.
Moreover, her brother had been entrusted with the mission of the Di Clan. He was destined to never be willful. It was the same for Tang Li. He had inherited everything from the Tang Sect. He couldn't be willful either.
Ning Jing didn't answer. Tang Li was very angry. He asked again, "Why?"
"Because you are the Tang Sect Leader." Ning Jing summarized everything with the simplest sentence.
Mrs. Tang looked at her daughter-in-law and didn't know what to say. This was the first time she felt so lucky that Tang Li had married such a woman.
However, Tang Li kept shaking his head.
He still didn't understand why he fell in love with Ning Jing, why he forgave her for drugging him, and why he was willing to serve her.
The two of them were actually polar opposites. Their temperaments were completely different.
For Ning Jing, there were some things that couldn't be done. There were some rules that had to be followed. Marriage was the only thing she had rebelled against.
For him, if he didn't like something, he didn't like it. If he didn't want to do it, he didn't want to do it. He never wanted to be forced. The marriage was also the only time he had compromised.
"I'm the Tang Sect Leader? And then? "Tang Li continued to ask.
"I, I don't object to you taking a concubine." Ning Jing was surprisingly calm.
"So, after all this fuss, you want me to take a concubine? Haha! Hahaha! "Tang Li laughed bitterly at himself." Ning Jing, what if I refuse? "
"Then I will …" Ning Jing hesitated.
Tang Li's gaze turned icy as he stared at her. He didn't rush her, but waited patiently.
Mrs. Tang was also waiting. She was suddenly afraid that Ning Jing, who couldn't be forced to leave, would willingly give up her position as the Tang Sect Leader's wife.
Tang Li wasn't afraid either. He was flustered and afraid.
If Ning Jing dared to say that she wanted to leave, he would definitely take revenge on her. He would take revenge on her ruthlessly. She couldn't leave so irresponsibly after disturbing his heart.
Finally, Tang Li lost his patience. "Say it!"
Ning Jing's expression was still calm and slightly cold. She looked at the furious Tang Li and felt that he was a stranger yet familiar.
She said, "Tang Li, if you refuse to take a concubine, then I will … be very happy."
After she said that, she laughed.
Actually, what she wanted to say was that if he refused to take a concubine, she would divorce him and leave. From then on, whether he married or not, whether he had a son or not, it would have nothing to do with her.
However, she couldn't convince herself to say something against her will.
Tang Li was stunned. After a while, he came back to his senses. Without another word, he pulled Ning Jing into his arms and kissed her fiercely.
No matter how different the two of them were, as long as they were willing to treat each other as exceptions, no matter how big the problem was, it wouldn't be a problem.
After Tang Li had kissed enough, he hugged Ning Jing tightly and whispered in her ear, "Silly, why would you have a son? I just like daughters. It's enough to serve you and our daughter. Any more … haha, and I can't serve you anymore. "
Ning Jing never knew that Tang Li's voice could be so gentle. Her heart melted when she heard it.
Mrs. Tang looked at them with a complicated expression.
What should she do?
