At that moment, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
She finally realized that her husband had noticed something amiss.
In fact, she knew very well that the family lived under the same roof and knew each other too well. Any abnormality could give the game away. She knew that sooner or later, but she did not expect her husband to suddenly make things difficult for her. Looking at the situation, she suspected that her husband had noticed something long ago. It did not seem like he had just noticed it.
If it was a normal family, it would not be a big deal to know. However, her husband's background made her afraid. It might even bring disaster to the entire Huangfu family.
Huangfu Duanrong tried to remain calm, "What kind of relationship can we have? We're barely friends."
Wuning asked, "What kind of relationship?"
"I don't know what you're talking about!" Huangfu Duanrong pretended to be angry and walked away.
Swoosh! With a flash of a blade, Wuning blocked the exit of the pavilion with one arm, as well as blocking Huangfu Duanrong's path. The couple stared at each other.
After a long time, Huangfu Duanrong's face turned pale. She slowly returned to the table and sat down. "What do you want? Report to the Heavenly Court and kill us? "
Wuning stood up and pointed the blade at Huangfu Duanrong's forehead. "Speak. What's the relationship?"
Huangfu Duanrong smiled bitterly, "Since you've already guessed it, why bother asking me?"
Wuning gritted his teeth, "Niu Youde forced her?"
Huangfu Duanrong pushed his blade away and stood up. She rushed to him and faced him at close range. She transmitted her voice aggressively, "They're in love. Your daughter is willing! They've been together since Niu Youde first came to Heavenly Street, but there's no other way. Y? Y's background is here, and her father's background is mysterious. She doesn't dare to tell her family, fearing that her father will kill her. Are you satisfied now? "
Swoosh! Wuning stabbed his blade into the ground. The ground cracked and a cobweb-like pattern spread from the center of the pavilion.
Wuning's hand trembled. He lowered his head in pain and said, "Since they've known each other for so long, why don't you let Niu Youde marry into our family?"
Huangfu Duanrong pointed to the outside world. "Look at his achievements today. He's a hero. Do you think he's willing to marry into our family?"
Wuning said bitterly, "Then they should break it off!"
"Break?" Huangfu Duanrong almost shouted in his ear, "It's not that they haven't stopped, but they can't. It's too late now. After so many years, I've had enough. Since things have been made clear, I'm not afraid to tell you that I've already revealed many secrets of the Great Ensemble to Niu Youde. If you want to tell on me, go ahead!"
The tremors from the cleaving ground had startled Huangfu Jun out of his room. Y looked at the situation in the pavilion. Huangfujun? Y came over in surprise, "Dad, Mom, what's wrong?"
Huangfu Duanrong pushed Wuning away and walked out with large strides. She grabbed her daughter's hand and walked away. Since things had already come to this, she might as well see the truth. She would either see if this person in her family was cruel and unscrupulous, or see if Niu Youde truly loved her daughter and how much he was willing to pay for her daughter.
Wu Ning sat down dejectedly, looking dejected.
There were some things that Huangfu Duanrong did not know. Huangfu Duanrong's loss of power in the Huangfu family had also affected him. In the past, some of the Shadow Guards' risky missions would not involve him. He had his own main mission. Now, Huangfu Duanrong's importance in the Huangfu family had declined, and his role in the Huangfu family had also declined. Hence, a risky mission was assigned to him.
Wu Ning quietly left the Huangfu family. When Huangfu Duanrong came out again, Wu Ning could not be found in the entire Huangfu family. The guards said that Wu Ning had gone out, and no one knew where he went. Huangfu Duanrong could not contact Wu Ning.
As a result, Huangfu Duanrong was extremely worried. Was Wu Ning really going to betray them? She could not help but regret her previous impulsive behavior. She should not have admitted it even if she was beaten to death.
Huangfujun? Y had already heard the story from her mother. As a daughter, she firmly believed that her father would not betray them.
A lot of things seemed to have been involved in this incident. In these troubled times, there was no telling how many families within the borders of the southern army had to go through their sorrows and reunions.
The rainy season on Vast King Planet seemed to be on the more frequent side. Standing on top of the loft, Miao Yi looked out at the drizzling rain outside. He wondered if Hao Defang used to stand here and admire the misty, picturesque drizzle all those years ago.
He put away the Starbell in his hand and took out another to summon Yang Zhaoqing.
Yang Zhaoqing quickly arrived and bowed. "Milord!"
Miao Yi tilted his head and told Yang Zhaoqing about Huangfu Duanrong and her daughter coming to the nearby planets. He then asked Yang Zhaoqing to arrange for reliable people to protect them in secret.
Wu Ning's disappearance had shaken Huangfu Duanrong's confidence. She had no choice but to inform Miao Yi of the situation. Miao Yi asked them to hide nearby and said that he would handle the matter.
Yang Zhaoqing reminded, "Milord, shouldn't you reconsider your relationship with the Hero Ensemble at this time?" What he meant was that there was already enough to deal with.
Miao Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head. "It's hard to explain in a few words. In short, Huangfu Jun has been my woman for a long time. This matter might be exposed … "He briefly explained the situation, including Huangfu Duanrong's impulsive slip of the tongue in front of Wu Ning. He also mentioned that Wu Ning might be a member of the Shadow Guards.
Of course, he also warned Yun Zhiqiu not to know about it and told him not to reveal it.
Yang Zhaoqing was dumbfounded. He thought to himself, 'Oh my god, he's with Huangfu Jun? Y is having an affair too. I can't believe I didn't notice it after so many years. He really hid it well. Heavens, isn't it messy enough already? ' Recently, there were so many women trying to enter the manor. Yan Xiu, who was in charge of keeping an eye on them, already had his hands full. 'Now there's another one here. How are you going to explain yourself if the Madam finds out?'
"Also, think of a way to contact Huangfu Liankong secretly and tell him about it to me and Huangfu Jun. Tell him through your relationship with Y. Don't think that I won't touch their family just because they have the Heavenly Palace's support. If anything happens to Huangfu Duanrong and her daughter, I don't care if they're the culprit. I'll exterminate the Huangfu family. I'll kill every last one of them. I'll bury them with their lives. I mean it! Also, tell him that I'm very interested in the Great Ensemble! "Miao Yi instructed. He did not know much about Wu Ning. Without Huangfu Jun? Based on Y's trust in his father, he had to first intimidate the Huangfu family to prevent them from messing around with the mother and daughter.
"Yes, I understand." As soon as Yang Zhaoqing agreed, he took out a Star Bell and made some contact, then reported, "Madam Feihong is here."
Miao Yi nodded and said, "Go do what you need to do. Tell Xiaoxiao to come while you're at it."
Not long after, Pang Xiaoxiao arrived first. She went up to the loft and poured a pot of tea on the table, then turned and left. Her temper had been like this lately.
However, when she went downstairs, she bumped into Fei Hong, who was coming up. The two of them looked at each other.
Miao Yi smiled. That was why he did not stop Pang Xiaoxiao from leaving. He had already seen Fei Hong coming up from upstairs and knew that the two of them were going to bump into each other.
After Yun Zhiqiu gave Fei Hong the task of scouting around, she went to the Pang family and the two of them met. They knew each other.
Fei Hong was taken aback, then smiled and said, "It's Little Sister Xiaoxiao."
Pang Xiaoxiao was embarrassed. She had asked Fei Hong about whether Niu Youde's appearance was scary or not. She didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, she would be sharing a husband with him. She returned the greeting with a blush. "Sister!" Then she quickly turned around and left.
Fei Hong came over and greeted Miao Yi, looking back every few steps.
Miao Yi was surprised. "You two know each other?" He wanted to introduce them.
Fei Hong nodded. "I met her when I visited the Pang family, and we had some contact. I didn't expect …"
Miao Yi naturally understood what she was trying to say. He said, "You must have heard about what happened to her family. She does not know anyone here. You should spend more time with her and help me take care of her."
"Mn!" Fei Hong nodded, worry creeping into her brows. "Milord, the Left Division is forcing me to return …"
Miao Yi raised his hand to stop her. Fei Hong immediately transmitted to him after receiving news of the Left Division's order to assassinate him. He had already expected this. Even if Fei Hong didn't say it, he would have guessed it. When he was calculating with Yang Qing, Yang Qing estimated that once the situation was stirred up, it was unlikely that Lord Qing would send his personal guards to start a war. He might even want to eliminate him. How would he do it? Fei Hong and the Shadow Guards were already within Yang Qing's calculations.
Yang Qing's intention was not to reveal anything to Fei Hong yet. He might as well use this opportunity to thoroughly test Fei Hong's stance. If Fei Hong came up with an excuse to return, then the Celestial Court would most likely begin the assassination.
If Fei Hong requested to return but refused to reveal the truth, Yang Qing would let Miao Yi decide for himself. After all, he had already schemed to kill Zhuge Qing … Fortunately, Fei Hong did not disappoint Miao Yi.
"I know what to do. Don't worry, I will handle it." As soon as Miao Yi finished speaking, he saw the worry between her brows. He grabbed her hand and comforted her, "I know what you're worried about. You're worried that if you don't listen to the Left Division, your mother will be in danger. There's something I haven't told you yet. Before we made our move against the southern army, I was worried that the Left Division would force you to do it. That's why I've already made arrangements to save your mother. Currently, I'm not ready yet, so I need to delay the Left Division. In any case, don't worry. I will definitely think of a way to save your mother. It won't take long! "
It wasn't that he had confidence in the Demonic Monk Nan Bo. Although if the Demonic Monk claimed to be the second best in the world, no one would dare to claim to be the best. However, he didn't place all his hopes on the Demonic Monk. He already had another plan in mind. If necessary, he was prepared to capture an important hostage to exchange with the Left Division of the Supervisory Department. There were some things that he didn't dare to do before taking over the southern army's territory, because he couldn't bear the devastating consequences.
Fei Hong snuggled into his embrace, feeling extremely grateful.
Before the two of them could be affectionate, Yang Zhaoqing sent another message. The Great Majordomo of the Heavenly Palace, Shangguan Qing, had personally arrived. The stargate guards had also informed him that he had already entered the Star Sector.
Needless to say, the Heavenly Decree officially appointing the Heavenly King in Charge of the southern army had arrived. The weight of this appointment was enough for Shangguan Qing to personally make a trip.
