I have a supermarket system, shocking the whole court
Chapter 185 The human heart is sinister
"Brother, the world is dangerous. Apart from your parents, anyone who treats you well for no reason has other intentions."
Ning Ancheng still had a look of disbelief on his face: "As you said, I'm already like this, what else can Prince Ju want from me? We are not from a famous family, nor do we have a lot of wealth, what else can he want from me."
"Yeah, why don't you think about it the other way around? You're not from a famous family and you don't have a lot of money. Why would someone help you get revenge and make you a high-ranking official? Did he owe you something in his previous life? Why does he have to be nice to you?"
Ning Ning turned the tables and answered his question with his own question.
This question is indeed useful.
Ning Ancheng was no longer able to speak. He just sat there dejectedly, his mind in a mess.
"That day... my father asked me to send a letter to the capital to ask Zhou Shibo, the head of the Jinbu Division, for help. However, when I arrived at the outskirts of Qinzhou, I encountered robbers from Buyi Village and nearly lost my life.
It was Prince Ju who happened to pass by and saved me.
Then he took me back to Bazhou to recuperate with my life hanging by a thread.
When I recovered, my father and mother had passed away, and you were also missing on the way to Beijing. I thought you were also killed on the way...
During that period, I lost the will to live and wanted to go down to reunite with my family..."
Thinking back to what happened a few months ago, Ning Ancheng's heart still aches.
Later, it was naturally Prince Ju who helped him get over his pain, allowing him to direct all his hatred towards the inaction of the court, and he also promised him a future.
Ning Ancheng survives on the belief of avenging his parents and sister and reviving the Ning family.
Later, news came back that the younger sister had cleared her father's name and even became the new Jin official.
He was beyond shocked.
It's not that he didn't suspect Prince Ju, but just when he was wondering what was going on, Prince Ju appeared and only said that his sister was very pitiful and was being used as a tool by the court.
Ning Ancheng didn't understand.
Prince Ju spoke up: "Why would you, as the emperor, clear Lord Ning's name? Do they really do it because they value talent? No, they did it to shut up the world.
Let the people of the world mistakenly believe that they are kind, wise, brave, and compassionate to their loyal subjects.
However, it is wrong and it is just a matter of mending the fold after the sheep have been lost. Can Lord Ning be resurrected because of this?"
Ning Ancheng shook his head subconsciously.
Prince Ju smiled and said, "That's right. The royal family is just trying to win over the people. They can kill loyal ministers at will, but they can also clear his name and make the people willing to follow him.
However, I can fool others, but I cannot fool me or you.
It’s just that your sister… is just a naive girl, and she is being used as a gun and still helping the enemy. What’s the difference between this and recognizing a thief as your father?”
Ning Ancheng's face immediately turned cold: "I'll go wake her up right now!"
"What if she doesn't listen?"
"Then I'll kill her!" Ning Ancheng said and stood up angrily.
Prince Ju did not stop him, but nodded with a smile: "Then I will wish Brother Ning all the best. I promise here that if Brother Ning encounters an accident during this trip, I will definitely seek justice for him!"
Then, Prince Ju sent four men to protect him and let him set off.
After arriving in Minzhou, he saw that his sister was doing a great job as a financial official. Not only did she get the abandoned mines running again, she even had a close relationship with the royal guards.
It's fine that she was naive and ignorant of the world and was deceived by the royal family to recognize the thief as her father, but she knew that her parents had died tragically and she was still in mourning, right? But she ignored the mourning and actually got involved with this man, and even got entangled with him just now...
All in all, Ning Ancheng was as disappointed as he could be. He originally wanted to scold his sister to wake her up, but now he didn't even want to scold her. He just wanted to kill her with his own hands to prevent her from doing more things that would damage the reputation of the Ning family.
As a result, before he could do anything, Ning Ning's men discovered him and captured him.
Then, he gave him another critical hit.
What his sister said was completely contrary to what Prince Ju said, and he felt like his whole world had collapsed.
Ning Ning couldn't help but sigh when she saw that her brother was finally willing to let down his psychological defenses and tell her about his experience.
"Brother, if something unexpected happens to you during this trip, do you know what will happen?"
"What?" He looked up blankly. At this moment, he was like a big dog that had lost its direction, lonely and confused.
"He will start an uprising on the grounds that the emperor is tyrannical and loyal ministers have died tragically. You were never on his list of ministers from the beginning to the end. At most, he will build a monument of loyalty and bravery on your grave. But what's the use of this monument if you are dead?"
"No...impossible..." He shook his head hesitantly, feeling it was outrageous.
"How about giving it a try?" Ning Ning looked at him calmly.
Ning Ancheng didn't dare to say a word.
Ning Ning smiled: "I was just guessing, but after listening to your description, I am convinced that the 100,000 taels of gold that my father worked so hard to refine is with Prince Ju.
He will use this gold to station troops. What do you think he will do?
Why have I been instilling in you the idea of being in opposition to the Heavenly Family, and even instigating you to kill me?
He must have guessed that there was a Qingyun Left Rider beside me, right? And the Qingyun Left Rider never held back against assassins.
So he also knows that you are doomed, right?"
However, Prince Ju had missed one thing in his calculations.
Qingyun Zuoqi is no longer the Qingyun Zuoqi of the past, or perhaps he did not expect that she and Qingyun Zuoqi could be so close.
It is estimated that Prince Ju was thinking that as soon as Ning Ancheng appeared, regardless of whether he succeeded in attacking Ning Ning or not, the people of Qingyun Left Cavalry would kill him with a single sword to the throat.
Those so-called people who were protecting him were probably here to monitor him and make sure he died before returning to report to Prince Ju.
Ning Ancheng's face turned even paler when he heard Ning Ning's guess.
"Whether you believe it or not, this is the truth. Fortunately, everything is still in time. You don't have to bear the stigma of treason. We brothers and sisters can still be reunited and work together to restore the Ning family's reputation."
Ning Ancheng looked up nervously, as if trying to find a bit of courage from her.
"Although my parents are gone, my uncle and aunt are still here. They will definitely be very happy to see you back." Ning Ning said this and switched to a conciliatory policy, then found something that the old servant had carefully protected from the bookshelf.
"These are what they risked their lives to preserve. They are all my father's relics. They are all manuscripts on how to extract gold. Now it's up to you, my brother, to fulfill my father's last wish."
Ning Ancheng's eyes were red and he took the manuscript with trembling hands.
The first page is Ning Zhongyi's ambitions and aspirations.
I eat the emperor's salary and share his worries. I am willing to guard the gold mine for Daliang all my life, and my descendants will be as steadfast as a rock.
Seeing this, Ning Ancheng burst into tears.
