Chapter 97: Women take over paternity and clean up the house
Seeing this, Mu Hao was afraid that Deng Youning would do something bad to Deng Ren, so he quickly stepped forward and fought with Deng Youning.
He had already heard about the abilities of County Master Youning in the capital and wanted to meet her.
At first, he just brought it with him as a toy, as if he was deliberately guiding and testing him.
Unexpectedly, he could not get any benefit from Deng Youning and was restrained by her everywhere.
He tried his best to fight unconvinced, but was subdued by Deng Youning within a few rounds.
Deng Youning grabbed his arm and told him to admit it, but he refused to accept it and even wanted to launch a sneak attack with a hidden weapon.
When Deng Youning was about to let him go, he used countless small needles as thin and dense as raindrops, forcing Deng Youning to retreat again and again. She almost hit the silk thread. Fortunately, Master An pulled her back.
"careful!"
He looked worried and anxious, not like a stranger that Deng Youning had just met, but rather like an old friend that he had known for a long time.
As her eyes met his, Deng Youning became even more suspicious of his true identity.
Especially when I saw the Buddhist beads on his wrist.
She moved quickly, trying to take off his mask to see what he looked like.
Master An rushed to protect her and started fighting with her.
Deng Youning was very obsessed with the face under the mask and her attacks were very ruthless, every move was a slap in the face.
Mr. An kept hiding and didn't really attack her.
He was self-aware and knew that his ability was not enough to stretch her muscles.
"stop!"
He declared a truce, raised his hand and took off his mask.
The moment the mask fell, a gust of wind blew, and the two strands of hair on his temples were also blown up.
The moment he raised his eyes, he was a gentleman with a natural radiance and a hint of pride, as gentle as jade and yet cool.
"Yan An?"
“It’s really you!”
Deng Youning felt somewhat happy that she guessed correctly.
This person has been hiding by my side for so long and has helped me many times. I didn't expect that it was because of this blood relationship.
"No, my real name is Deng Yan'an."
"Ningning, are you willing to call me brother now?"
Deng Yanan smiled faintly and spoke.
"Cousin."
Deng Youning knelt down and saluted him obediently.
"Thank you for your help these days."
She simply thanked him.
There's no need to be so polite now, as she will always have someone to thank you for your help in the future.
"You're welcome."
Deng Yan'an smiled gently, followed Deng Youning's gaze, and looked at his father Deng Ren.
As they got closer, Deng Ren actually felt that Deng Youning looked more like him than Deng Zheng.
"Thank you uncle for your help many times and for helping me to take revenge on the Deng family."
She also bowed to Deng Ren to express her gratitude.
This action surprised Deng Ren a little.
Deng Zheng was so angry that he started coughing. He said that they had conspired together and were working together from inside and outside.
He now began to suspect that the reason Deng Youning was compatible with his and Han Qiongyue's blood was that she was Deng Ren's daughter!
"Uncle, may I ask, have you ever missed your grandmother in the past thirty years?"
Deng Youning moved Han Qiongyue out, which allowed Deng Ren to gradually regain his sanity.
"Mother?"
Deng Ren loosened his grip on the knife, and the obsession with killing Deng Zheng for revenge in his eyes faded a lot.
When he was lying in ambush at the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, he had personally witnessed Deng Youning and his mother trying to find out the truth for him, and he also knew that they both wanted to avenge him.
He was very touched.
Thank you very much.
Knowing that Deng Youning was Deng Zheng's flesh and blood, he actually had some affection for her.
"Uncle has been wandering around for more than 30 years. It's been hard."
"You Ning begs my uncle to come home with me today, take charge of the Duke's Mansion, and take care of my grandmother until her death."
She lifted her skirt, knelt on one knee towards Deng Ren, and saluted with her fists clasped.
Deng Ren was confused again and didn't understand what she meant.
Deng Youning took the initiative to say:
"Deng Zheng's crimes are heinous, and justice is clear. His death is not a pity. There is no male heir in the Zhenguo Mansion who can inherit the title and military power."
"Today, You Ning is fortunate to learn that my great uncle is still alive. I beg you to go back with me to take charge of the overall situation, inherit the title of Duke, and raise the Deng family's lintel; hold the Deng family army's tiger talisman and establish our Dongji kingdom."
"The most important thing is that grandma misses you."
As soon as she finished speaking, without waiting for Deng Ren's reaction, she stood up and faced the Deng Family Army, saying with great momentum:
"The Deng family army, listen up. After returning to Beijing, Duke Deng and Madam Han's eldest son, Deng Ren, will recognize his ancestors and be granted the title of Duke of Zhenguo."
"If there are still people in my Deng family who are not obedient to me, I, the county lady, will take over the father's authority and clean up the family."
At the end of her words, she suddenly raised her eyes and stared at everyone, her eyes as sharp as a knife.
The air seemed to freeze, and cold rays burst out from her eyes.
A little girl controlled all the seven-foot-tall men around her, making them dare not even breathe.
She didn't put a curse on the Deng family army yet, but her voice seemed to be able to bewitch people, making more than a thousand soldiers of the Deng family army all convinced.
The captain took the lead and knelt down, "We will obey the county lady's orders and respectfully invite you to take the title of Duke."
Deng Youning also took out the tiger talisman from Deng Zheng's waist and gave it to Deng Ren.
"Father, what Ning Ning said is true. The best way is for us to return to Beijing and hand Deng Zheng over to the government for handling."
Deng Yan'an also followed suit and advised his father.
He knew what his son and niece said.
But how could more than thirty years of hatred be resolved so easily?
When he was in a dilemma, a huge explosion was heard from the meeting hall.
Immediately afterwards, a huge fire broke out and the flames shot up into the sky.
As the explosion sounded, the threads of the surrounding Thousand Machine Array fell to the ground and became useless.
Deng Youning looked back nervously, "Azhuo, Master Li is still over there!"
Thinking of Li Tianzhuo who destroyed the Thousand Machine Formation, Deng Youning didn't care about Deng Ren, Deng Zheng and the others, and flew over there directly using Qinggong.
"Ning Ning——"
Deng Yan'an called her from behind, looked at Deng Ren in embarrassment, and followed her out of concern.
"Thousand Machine Array!"
Knowing that the Thousand Machine Array was destroyed, Deng Ren also wanted to go over and take a look.
He signaled Mu Hao to take Deng Zheng, who had been stabbed but was still alive, with him and fly towards the meeting hall.
Seeing the Duke being taken away, the captain also organized a large number of soldiers to follow.
But they don’t know how to do Qinggong, so their speed is naturally not as fast as those of the Deng family.
Due to the fire, the temperature around the meeting hall became extremely high.
I don’t know how this fire started?
When Deng Youning arrived, the raging fire seemed to be spreading like crazy from inside the meeting hall, devouring everything around it wantonly.
She walked along, calling Li Tianzhuo's name all the way, but no one answered.
Standing at the door of the meeting hall, looking at the red flames in the room, her misty eyes had already been blurred by tears.
"Azhuo——"
Deng Youning didn't have time to think and ran straight into the house.
"Ningning, are you crazy?"
Deng Yan'an arrived in time and grabbed her arm to stop her from committing suicide.
Deng Ren, Deng Zheng and others also arrived gradually. They were a little surprised to see Deng Youning disregarding her own safety in order to find Li Tianzhuo.
In their impression, the relationship between these two people is not that deep.
"Cousin, please let me go and don't force me to use poison on you!"
Deng Youning struggled hard to free herself from his hand.
Deng Yan'an appears to be a weak scholar, but in fact he is the young master of Qianji Villa and the master of Qianji Pavilion, so his martial arts skills are not inferior to Deng Youning.
"The fire was so big, I'm afraid he is no longer alive."
"Besides, he is so capable, he should have escaped by himself a long time ago, right?"
Deng Yan'an guessed.
I also want to advise Deng Youning to relax.
