"Tell me the truth. ”

After hearing Ning Qingfeng's words, Ning Qiankun seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, although his face was still heavy, his voice had calmed down a lot.

This drooping old man, who has been at the helm of the Ning family for nearly a year, is now old and decrepit, and is gradually dying, his eyes are still as sharp as an eagle.

It was only when he heard Ning Qingfeng say Ning Fan's name and that he had killed Ning Jianyang, a rare look of shock appeared on his face.

"Hide for the elderly, avoid the dead, that's what you, Father, taught me. ”

Ning Qingfeng said in a low voice, bowed to the sandalwood box containing Ning Jianyang's head, and sobbed: "Since I can't hide it from my father, I have to tell all this and everything. ”

In fact, the reason why the eldest brother did not tell his father the news of the third brother's return to Dragon City was actually his selfishness. ”

Ning Qingfeng's words were shocking, looking at Ning Qiankun's gradually frowning brows, and continued: "The eldest brother once invited me to discuss this matter, he thinks that the third brother is very much loved by his father, if he returns to the Ning family again and appears in his father's sight, it is very likely that his qualifications as the heir of the head of the family will be shaken. ”

In this mentality, the eldest brother began to mobilize the dead soldiers raised by the family and plotted to get rid of the third brother. ”

Ning Qingfeng gritted his teeth, his eyes were slightly red, and he said in a low voice: "I'm ashamed to say it, although I don't agree with this kind of brotherly killing behavior in my heart, but under the pressure of my eldest brother, I chose to remain silent and didn't inform my father of this matter as soon as possible, it's my fault." ”

After sincere repentance, Ning Qingfeng continued: "The eldest brother sent a family dead soldier to assassinate the third brother, but he unexpectedly failed, he underestimated the strength of the third brother, not only failed to kill him, but exposed his whereabouts, which caused this catastrophe. ”

Ning Qingfeng paused, bowed again, and said: "Although the third brother killed the eldest brother, but this incident is also for a reason, I hope my father will not blame the third brother too much, after all, he has been away from home for a long time, and he has not much relationship with the eldest brother, and he was assassinated by the eldest brother, and he shot in anger, which is understandable." ”

"Extenuating circumstances? Can this be called extenuating circumstances?"

Ning Qiankun was furious, he who had been sitting cross-legged on the futon finally couldn't help it, supported his crumbling body and stood up, his eyes were like an eagle, and he said sharply: "No matter what Jianyang did wrong, he is Xiao Fan's eldest brother after all, how can Xiao Fan do such a brotherly killing, I am so disappointed in him!"

"Father, take care!"

Ning Qingfeng lowered his head, a hint of pride flashed in his eyes, but his face was full of sorrow, and he comforted: "Now that the eldest brother has died, the third brother must have suffered a lot outside, which has created this character today, I hope that my father will be magnanimous and don't care about the fault of the third brother." ”

Speaking of this, Ning Qingfeng knelt directly on the ground, and said in a hoarse voice: "I failed to persuade the eldest brother not to send someone to assassinate the third brother, but to cooperate with him, which caused this tragedy, if my father wants to blame, blame me, I am willing to be punished." ”

"The future of the Ning family...... Is there really no hope?"

Unexpectedly, Ning Qiankun suddenly sighed, and his angry demeanor converged and calmed down.

I saw an endless look of loss on his face, waved his hand gloomily, and said, "You go out first, stay in the inner house, and don't go out again in the near future." ”

"Do as my father commands. ”

Ning Qingfeng bowed his head and bowed again, not daring to say another word, and walked out of the meditation hall lightly.

He knew that Ning Qiankun was still skeptical about this matter and what he had just said, and he didn't fully believe him.

But it doesn't matter, the private manor outside the suburbs must have turned into a pile of ashes at this time, although it is a pity that the feng shui treasure land, but if you want to find evidence from there, I am afraid that the gods will not be able to do anything.

As for Ning Fan......

Ning Qingfeng, who walked out of the Jing Si Hall, lowered his head, a sneer hooked up at the corner of his mouth, and muttered: "If you do this, as long as your father has a trace of doubt in his heart, you will not be able to ascend to the position of the head of the Ning family again." ”

"The head of the Ning family can only be my Ning Qingfeng's!"

A hint of fanaticism flashed in Ning Qingfeng's eyes, and he quickly left the meditation hall with his head down.

"Lao Zhang, come in. ”

In the meditation hall, Ning Qiankun's voice was much lower.

Although he was just sitting on the futon in the meditation hall just now and listening to Ning Qingfeng's retelling, Ning Qiankun seemed to have experienced a vicious battle, and his whole body revealed deep tiredness.

"Master, the festival is changing, you must ensure your health. ”

Steward Zhang bowed and walked into the meditation hall.

Ning Qingfeng and Ning Qiankun's conversation did not deliberately lower his voice, so he had already listened to all the conversations between the two outside the door.

"Hehe, take care of your body? At my age, if I take care of myself, how many more years can I live?"

Ning Qiankun shook his head a little lonely, and said in a low voice: "Although the Ning family is now glorious, no one dares to look at me in Dragon City, but when I die, how long can this majesty be maintained." ”

Speaking of this, Ning Qiankun's voice revealed a deep sense of loss, and he sighed: "The three words of the Ning family, the eldest son is reckless and ignorant, the second son is scheming, only Xiaofan, who has a sharp spirit that I had back then, and is my most optimistic successor." ”

"But I never thought that an accident would make his life and death uncertain, I had gradually extinguished this thought, and I was ready to give up the position of head of the family to Jianyang next year, and rest for a few years, but I was left alive. ”

Ning Qiankun sat on the Taishi chair in the meditation hall and said dejectedly: "Who would have expected that Xiao Fan suddenly returned to Dragon City at this time, but killed his eldest brother, how can I decide?"

"Sir...... The second young master is scheming and good at sophistry, and there may be other inside stories in this matter. ”

Steward Zhang said expressionlessly.

After Ning Fan left, Ning Jianyang and Ning Qingfeng fought for the authority of the Ning family in all aspects, although it didn't make a fuss, but for him who controlled the Ning family's old mansion, how could he not know.

But among the two sons of the Ning family, he has never been on that side, whether it is Ning Jianyang or Ning Qingfeng, they have extended an olive branch to him and tried to recruit him, but he categorically refused.

In his life, he is only loyal to the Ning family and the dying old Ning Qiankun in front of him.

"I have this concern, too, so I called you in. ”

A hint of fierceness flashed in Ning Qiankun's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Go and investigate immediately, use all your strength, find out this matter, and about Xiao Fan......"

Ning Qiankun was silent for a moment before continuing: "Bring some people and invite him back, no matter what the inside story of this matter is, he is still the Ning family after all, and he will always go back to this home." ”
