Removal from the Marquis's Residence
The most worrying thing was that the White Tiger Empire had sent a group of envoys over some time ago. The one leading them was actually the Ninth Princess of the White Tiger Empire. They had naturally heard of this legendary empire. It was said that the Emperor of the White Tiger Empire was a Dou Zun! Therefore, when the ninth princess arrived that day, everyone turned out. Even the emperor personally came to welcome her with a group of ministers.
Zhang Long and Zhao Hu also went. Ning Qi was a marquis after all, so Third Master Ning went to welcome him. Unexpectedly, the ninth princess asked the moment she got off the carriage, "Where is the Dragon Slayer Marquis's residence?"
Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect Ning Qi's reputation to spread so far.
Then, the ninth princess said, "He stole something from me and ran away."
Great-grandfather Ning couldn't sit still anymore and personally asked about the matter.
As for what happened after that, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu no longer had the right to know. They only knew that during this period of time, those who had tried to curry favor with the Dragon Slaying Marquis' residence had disappeared. The greeting cards that used to be piled up to two meters high had also been taken back. Everyone looked at them with eyes filled with schadenfreude.
Zhao Er and the other servants were unwilling to go out. The gate of the Dragon Slayer Marquis's residence was tightly shut.
Only Tong Yingkong would occasionally come to play with Little Yue 'er and Zuo Ling' er. The others avoided the Dragon Slayer Marquis's residence.
… …
The Champion Marquis's residence.
Ning Hongtian sat next to Great-grandfather Ning. His brothers, Ning Honghai, and Ning Hongdu were also present.
"This boy caused trouble in the White Tiger Empire and even offended the Ninth Princess. Now the Ninth Princess has indicated that she wants to stay in the Imperial Palace for a long time. She won't leave until His Majesty hands Ning Qi over to her to deal with. Father, he's too good at causing trouble.
Ning Hongtian said seriously.
"That's right, Father. Why don't we expel him from the Ning clan? This way, the Ninth Princess might not make things difficult for us on account of this. Everyone has seen that the guards around her are all at the peak of the Dou Huang class. That Sky Roaring White Tiger is something that even the Emperor is no match for. Such a person is not someone that we, the Champion Marquis, can afford to offend!"
Ning Honghai advised.
Great-grandfather Ning smiled and glanced at everyone. "Do you all have the same idea as Hongtian?"
"Yes!"
"I agree with Big Brother to expel Ning Qi from our Ning family and draw a clear line with him. Otherwise, we won't even know how our Ning family was destroyed one day."
The scene was simply one-sided. Everyone was denouncing Ning Qi.
Before the arrival of the Ninth Princess, most of them were already thinking about how to please Ning Qi.
Looking at this group of descendants, Old Master Ning sighed in his heart. This Champion Marquis' Residence was really getting worse with each generation. It was not easy for a genius to appear, but everyone found him to be an eyesore. When he was in trouble, they all wanted to kick him while he was down.
"I don't think that's necessary."
Suddenly, a voice that was contrary to everyone's opinion appeared.
Everyone looked up and saw that it was Ning Hongdu.
Ning Honghai's expression changed slightly. "Seventh Brother, have you forgotten how Ning Qi treated you? You still want to speak up for him? "
Ning Hongtian coughed, looked at Ning Hongdu, and said, "Seventh Brother, if you have anything to say, feel free to speak your mind."
He didn't quite believe that Ning Hong would speak to Ning Qi. Perhaps he had a more complete solution?
However, Ning Hongdu's next words were beyond Ning Hongtian's expectations. He smiled slightly and looked at Ning Honghai. "What did Ning Qi do to me? Help me catch the adulterer and the adulterer, and then kill their unfilial son? Although I was also very angry at that time, after the incident, to be honest, I am quite grateful to him. "
"That's a different matter. Ning Qi didn't offend the other nobles in the capital. Although he has offended almost all the nobles, our Champion Marquis' Residence is still not very afraid. However, offending the Ninth Princess of the White Tiger Empire? Have you ever thought that if she couldn't destroy the Qin Tang Empire with just a flick of her finger, she can destroy our Ning Mansion? "
Ning Honghai snorted coldly and said.
Ning Hong Du sneered. "Do you think that if Ning Qi really stole something from the Ninth Princess, she would still be living peacefully in the Imperial Palace and touring around all day long? Our Ning Mansion would have been implicated long ago, right? "
A smile appeared on Old Master Ning's face. "Oh, Seventh Brother, what do you think is the reason?"
Ning Hongdu said respectfully. "Father, I think the relationship between the Ninth Princess and Ning Qi is not as simple as she said. I think this matter needs to be considered in the long run."
"No!"
Ning Hongtian objected.
He stood up and looked straight at Old Master Ning. "Father, I am now the Champion Marquis. Can't I even make a small decision? If that's the case, I don't mind being the Marquis anymore! "
Old Master Ning was silent for a while, then sighed and said, "I don't care about this matter anymore. If you want to expel him, just do it. Perhaps Ning Qi would be more than happy to do so."
Ning Hongtian nodded. "Then I will take my leave for now!"
Old Master Ning waved his hand. "Go!"
"Yes! I will take my leave now. "
Ning Honghai and the others left one after another.
When Ning Hongtian returned to his bedroom, Nangong Yu 'er came forward and asked expectantly, "Master, how was it?"
Ning Hongtian smiled and said in a relaxed manner, "It's done. Madam, did the Ninth Princess really say that as long as I expel Ning Qi from the Champion Marquis' Residence, she will not hold us responsible?"
Nangong Yu 'er nodded. "That day at the banquet in the palace, the Ninth Princess told me personally. It can't be false. Ning Qi, this bastard, offended such an important person. I think he is not far from death. The Ninth Princess clearly wants to play him to death step by step."
Ning Hongtian had no affection for Ning Qi at all. Hearing Nangong Yu 'er's words, he did not react.
Soon, the news of Ning Qi's Champion Marquis' Residence becoming famous spread from the palace to all the forces.
…
Clearwater Inn.
Dozens of noblemen were drinking and enjoying the dancing of the courtesans brought in by the Red Sun Empire.
Cao Zheng and the other first-rate noblemen sat in the middle, while the other second-rate noblemen sat at the side.
"Ning Qi is going to lose a layer of skin even if he doesn't die this time. It's fine that he offended us, but he even offended the Princess of the White Tiger Empire. He is really audacious."
After drinking a cup of wine, Cao Zheng laughed loudly and gloatingly.
"Yes, even the Hundred Herb Hall couldn't save him this time. Even if the Hundred Herb Sect came forward, the White Tiger Empire would not give them face if they say they won't. After all, their Emperor is a Dou Zun! They can destroy the entire Qin Tang Empire with one hand! "
Kong Tianqi smiled.
