Framing and Framing
"Wait! What is it? "
Ning Qi yelled and jumped up from his bed, looking at the other party cautiously.
At this time, a crying woman was brought to the front by a soldier, "Is it him?"
The woman saw Ning Qi and immediately burst into tears, "It's him, he humiliated me!"
"Sigh, this little brother looks so dignified, I didn't expect him to be such a beast."
"Which one of these young masters isn't like this? Hmph!"
"I hope sir will behead him!"
The people outside began to whisper to each other.
"Son of a bitch! How dare you frame me! "Ning Qi exploded.
"Speechless! Surrender, you won't be able to escape! "
The leading general said coldly.
He was a peak Da Dou Shi and could tell that Ning Qi was at most a peak Dou Shi, so he wasn't afraid of Ning Qi escaping.
"Wait! I have something to say. That waiter can be my witness, I've never seen this woman before! "
Ning Qi pointed at the waiter who had received five taels of silver from him and was standing at the door to watch the show.
"Is that so?" The general looked at the waiter, "Can you be his witness?"
The waiter quickly said, "I saw this woman enter the room with my own eyes and run out crying. I'm not lying."
His eyes flickered, not daring to look at Ning Qi.
"You took my five taels and still dare to frame me?!" Ning Qi was furious.
He had just arrived at Fengdu and his only enemy was Sun Daneng. He must be behind all this!
Seeing that the soldiers were about to make a move, Ning Qi snorted, "I'll go myself!"
Outside the inn, in a restaurant in the distance, Sun Danneng was sitting by the window. Seeing Ning Qi being taken away, he showed a proud sneer on his face and said to a middle-aged man with shifty eyes, "This matter was done beautifully. After a while, come back to my Sun family for the remaining 100 taels of silver." He then laughed, "So what if you're a disciple of the Champion Marquis? So what if you're a Dragon Slayer Dou Shi? You can't wash yourself clean now. I'll send someone to the capital to spread the news and ruin your reputation!"
"Great Grandmaster Sun, I admire you!"
The middle-aged man grinned and gave him a thumbs up.
Fengdu City's government office.
Ning Qi and the woman were escorted to the court together. The other party even put shackles on Ning Qi. As soon as they arrived at the court, the woman cried out to the upright and plainspoken official sitting on the main seat, "My lord, I beg you, I beg you to seek justice for me. This thief … he humiliated me!!"
Ning Qi immediately scolded, "You're too shameless. With your beauty, how can I, the dignified county magistrate, insult you?"
Sun Bai fiercely knocked on the gavel. "No noise is allowed in the court! This official is asking you, do you have proof that you are a county magistrate personally appointed by His Majesty! "
Ning Qi said coldly, "Of course there is. Please remove the shackles on my body. I remember that the magistrate is a fifth-grade official. If there is no solid evidence, I am afraid that you have no right to detain me!"
Sun Bai sneered as he looked at Ning Qi and said, "There are witnesses and material evidence, so why do I have no right to detain you? Even if you are a county magistrate, the Son of Heaven commits the same crime as the common people! "
Ning Qi sneered, "Just based on her one-sided words, does that count as having witnesses and material evidence?"
Sun Bai: "This official is asking you, did you tell the waiter not to disturb you yesterday?"
Ning Qi: "Yes!"
Sun Bai: "Then everything is clear. You were doing something improper in your room, that's why you told the waiter not to disturb you. You were afraid that someone would find out what you were doing!"
Ning Qi was so angry that he laughed instead. "You dog official, what nonsense!"
"How dare you! You dare to insult an official of the imperial court! Come, beat him thirty times! "
Sun Bai shouted angrily.
The bailiff at the side immediately waved his rod and hit Ning Qi's leg, wanting to make him fall to the ground. However, the rod broke with a crack and Ning Qi didn't move at all.
"General He Hu, you will do it yourself!"
Sun Bai said.
The peak Da Dou Shi who brought Ning Qi over grinned. A rod appeared in his hand. This rod had a golden dragon coiling at the front and back. It was obviously a Dou weapon!
With a loud shout, he smashed the rod into Ning Qi's back. Ning Qi staggered two steps forward from the tremendous force, losing 150 HP!
He Hu brandished the rod and hit Ning Qi thirty times. In the end, he was surprised to find that nothing happened to Ning Qi.
Sun Bai was secretly shocked. A peak Dou Shi was actually able to withstand the attack of a peak Da Dou Shi! It seemed that his dragon slayer title wasn't just for show.
Thinking of his nephew Sun Daneng's words, Sun Bai steeled his heart to convict Ning Qi. Although it wouldn't cause any substantial harm to Ning Qi, it would tarnish his reputation and let everyone know that Feng City's Sun clan wasn't someone that even a marquis couldn't afford to offend!
With this thought in mind, Sun Bai shouted, "This child's crime has been determined. General He Hu, arrest him!"
Ning Qi laughed wildly. With a sudden burst of strength, the shackles on his body broke into pieces. These shackles could lock up an ordinary Dou Shi, but they were useless against Ning Qi!
Under the shocked gazes of Sun Bai and He Hu, a large knife appeared in Ning Qi's hand. With a swing of the knife, he cut off the arm of the woman who framed him.
"Ah!" She let out an earth-shattering scream and covered her wound with her hand. Like a madman, she ran outside.
"Audacious thief!" He Hu angrily shouted and attacked Ning Qi. The group of soldiers under him reacted quickly and set up a formation to surround Ning Qi.
Sun Bai sat in his seat and coldly watched this scene. There was an additional trace of joy in his eyes. Cutting off the victim's arm in public was something he couldn't explain!
As for whether or not Ning Qi would hurt him? Sun Bai was a one star Dou Ling. Even if Ning Qi was overflowing with talent and could fight above his level, how could he defeat him!
Ning Qi used the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms with his left hand and the Dragon Slayer Saber with his right. With just one strike, He Hu's staff was cut into two pieces. He Hu was shocked.
The others were knocked to the ground by Ning Qi's Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. Immediately, they fell from the upper hand to the lower hand. Ning Qi hacked at He Hu again and again. Without a Dou Weapon, He Hu could only continuously dodge. After a dozen moves, Ning Qi's Dragon Slayer Saber was placed on He Hu's neck.
"If you dare move again, his head will fall to the ground."
Ning Qi coldly looked at the crowd.
The soldiers immediately stopped moving.
Sun Bai laughed out loud, "Kidnapping an official of the imperial court in public? You are just a county magistrate. The emperor should remove you!"
