Thinking of Love
After settling down the Northern Qin Dragon and Di Qing, Ning Qi directly fed the little white horse a few yellow-level mid-grade Spirit Raising Pills and let it roam about on its own. He especially instructed Zhao Er not to bother with it, then gave Zhang Long and Zhao Hu an address and asked them to invite Tong Yingkong and Tong Tian over.
Walking to a small courtyard, the sound of reading came from inside.
Ning Qi went in and saw the teacher Zhao Er had invited was teaching Da Gouzi, Xiao Yue Er and Zuo Ling Er poetry and words.
"Young master!" Da Gouzi saw Ning Qi and stood up excitedly.
Xiao Yue Er and Zuo Ling Er also ran over to Ning Qi. The two little fellows hugged Ning Qi's legs and looked up at him happily.
Seeing this, the teacher smiled and walked over to Ning Qi.
"Young master Ning."
He smiled.
Ning Qi nodded, "Thank you for your trouble."
"Don't mention it. If it wasn't for young master Ning giving me food, I wouldn't be able to use what I've learned."
The teacher smiled.
"Learn how to read from Teacher, got it?"
Ning Qi smiled at the three.
"Yes, young master!"
After that, Ning Qi went to the temple and burned a few incense sticks for his mother. There was not a speck of dust in here. It could be seen that the servants came here everyday to clean.
"Mother, now that I've gained a foothold, your spirit in heaven will be happy for me."
Ning Qi said quietly.
"If your mother knew of your achievements today, she would be very proud."
A voice came from behind Ning Qi.
Ning Qi turned and smiled, "Third master Ning, you walked without a sound, you scared me."
Third Master Ning smiled slightly and looked Ning Qi up and down. "Just now, Old Master has sent someone to tell me to follow you from now on."
Ning Qi said, "If third master Ning doesn't want, I can go talk to the master."
Third master Ning shook his head: "There's no need. If you were just a three star Da Dou Shi, I may not agree, and the old master wouldn't force me either. But now that you are an alchemist of Hundred Herb Hall, I will definitely protect you. I heard that the Sun family of Feng City wants your life? Don't worry, even if their master comes personally, I can help you hold him off for a while. "
Ning Qi bowed and said, "Thank you, Third Master Ning!"
…
Tong family.
As the You Ji General of the Valiant Cavalry Battalion, Tong Guan was a one star Dou Ling. He was tall and had a stern face. Every time it was time to eat, his two wives and four children would sit at the same table. However, they were not allowed to casually chat or else they would be scolded by Tong Guan.
In the Tong family, no one could challenge Tong Guan's authority!
Tong Yingkong listlessly used her chopsticks to pick at the rice in her bowl. Second Madam's eyes flashed with a trace of displeasure, but due to Tong Guan's majesty, she didn't dare to reprimand him.
Tong Guan put down his chopsticks and looked at Tong Yingkong. "Yingkong, what are you thinking about when you're eating? Why are you so listless? Did something happen? "
Tong Yingkong jumped in fright and quickly came back to her senses. "No, I'm not thinking about anything."
"Big sister is yearning for love."
A thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl snickered.
Sitting next to her was a boy of about the same age. They were both children of the second wife. At this time, he also lowered his head and smiled.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Tong Yingkong's eyes were a little unnatural as she pouted.
Tong Guan glanced at her, then turned to Tong Tian. "Tell me, what's going on? I saw you limping when you walked, so I didn't ask. Is it related to this? Remember, there are no secrets in the Tong family! "
Tong Tian hesitated for a moment. "This … Little sister might have fallen in love with the Champion Marquis's thirteenth son."
"Big brother! You! "
Tong Yingkong didn't expect Tong Tian to betray her and reveal the secret she had buried in her heart in front of so many people. She immediately flew into a rage out of humiliation!
"The Champion Marquis's thirteenth son? The bastard son of that lowly servant? "
Tong Guan's eyes flashed with a trace of displeasure.
First Madam frowned and looked at Tong Yingkong. "Is what your brother said true?"
Second Madam's face revealed a trace of ridicule. "Of all the people she could have fallen in love with, why did she have to fall in love with that brat? I heard that he signed a duel contract with over a hundred of the capital's nobles. Even Tian 'er signed his name, right? After that, he left the capital. There hasn't been any news of him for a long time. Perhaps he's hiding out in fear. "
Tong Yingkong argued, "He wouldn't hide. He's a Dragon Slayer Dou Shi."
"Dragon Slayer Dou Shi, haha …" A trace of ridicule flashed across Tong Guan's face. Who in the capital didn't know how Ning Qi got the title of Dragon Slayer Dou Shi?
If it wasn't for the fact that the Emperor needed such a title in the Qin Tang Empire, no one would have acknowledged it!
The real dragon slayer should be Venerable Ning and the Crown Prince's junior guardian, Cao Dinglong!
"Although the Champion Marquis's residence is many times stronger than our Tong family, you are the Tong family's first wife's daughter. I won't let you marry a bastard son. Your Uncle Chen has a seventeen-year-old son who is already a one star Dou Shi. I'll arrange for you to meet him."
Tong Guan said.
Tong Yingkong was flustered and didn't know what to do.
Tong Tian's face also flashed with anger. "Little sister, that guy doesn't keep his word. I advise you to give up. You won't have a good ending if you hang out with this kind of person."
What he meant was that Ning Qi had previously said that he would stand up for them, but in the end, he disappeared for a few months. In his opinion, Ning Qi had long forgotten about this matter.
"You!"
Tong Yingkong was so anxious that she couldn't speak.
At this moment, one of Tong Guan's personal guards walked in and whispered something in Tong Guan's ear. Tong Guan's face changed. "Two Dou Ling? They claim to be Ning Qi's followers? To invite Yingkong and Tian 'er? "
The personal guard nodded. "Yes!"
"Dou Ling followers?"
First Madam and Second Madam were shocked. Ning Qi was a bastard son. How could he have Dou Ling followers? Only a family like the Shen Wu Public House, which was one of the top forces in the capital, would have such a background.
Could it be a misunderstanding?
"Invite them to the main hall!"
Tong Guan stood up and hesitated. He then said to Tong Yingkong and Tong Tian, "You two come too."
…
Tong Family's main hall.
Tong Guan smiled when he saw Zhang Long and Zhao Hu. He stepped forward and asked, "How do I address you two?"
"General Tong, you don't have to be so polite. I am Zhang Long and he is Zhao Hu. We are Master Ning's followers. We have specially come to invite Miss Tong and Young Master Tong to our residence."
Zhang Long smiled.
