Chapter 125 Involved in a Big Event
The development of the situation in the next few days was exactly as Wei Changtian and the other two had expected. Not only did it quickly turn into a storm throughout Shuzhou, but it also naturally alarmed the imperial palace.
It is said that Ning Yongnian flew into a rage after hearing about this, and threatened to grind the murderer who intended to murder his fourth brother to ashes. He immediately sent a "joint investigation team" composed of the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and the Xuan Jingsi to Shuzhou to investigate the case of the assassination of the prince.
These people will arrive in Shuzhou City in a few days, but they probably won't be able to find out anything even if they arrive.
That day, all the yellow-clothed assassins either died in battle or committed suicide. The last five were chopped to death by Wei Changtian with a single knife, leaving no one alive.
If one wants to investigate this situation, one can only start from the people and forces that have a grudge against Ning Qingyu.
But how could a prince who could only write poetry have any enemies? At least not on the surface.
Wei Changtian is not a criminal investigator, so he naturally couldn't think of where else to investigate.
In his opinion, the person closest to the truth must be Ning Qingyu himself, and there is a high probability that there is some unspeakable secret behind this.
He thought Ning Qingyu would reveal something to his "savior", but after a few days, there was no movement at all from the palace.
It's already like this, are you still on guard against me? That's fine, I don't want to get involved anyway. "Crack!"
In the backyard, Wei Changtian was daydreaming while swinging his knife at the Immortal Locking Stone in front of him.
It penetrated three and a half inches into the stone, which has exceeded the three-inch record left by the previous emperor.
And this is of course because he has practiced the Guichen Sword to perfection.
“I never expected that.”
He shook his head and muttered to himself, then sheathed his sword.
Wei Changtian had always thought that the plots in novels about "breaking through bottlenecks at the critical moment of life and death" were all nonsense, but he never expected that it would actually happen to him.
In fact, he didn't know why he could suddenly swing the knife like that, it was just mysterious! But the reason was not important, what was important was that at least the fight was not in vain.
But Wei Changtian curled his lips and complained in his heart.
Ning Qingyu is also an ignorant person. He saved the lives of his whole family, but he didn't even show any appreciation? Although he is not short of money, he can give him something!
That lining armor is pretty good. If it doesn't work, I can accept it as a gift for my daughter. "Sir!"
Suddenly, Yuan'er ran over in a hurry: "Princess Rouan is here, and she said she came to see you on the orders of Prince Shun!"
"Ning Yuke?"
Wei Changtian was stunned.
Wow, he really came to send his daughter off? ? After one stick of incense.
An exquisite and luxurious carriage was driving on the main street, with Wei Changtian and Ning Yuke sitting opposite each other in the carriage.
Facts have proved that Ning Yuke did not come here to "put herself in the wolf's mouth" on her own initiative, but wanted to invite Wei Changtian to the palace, saying that Ning Qingyu had something to discuss with him.
"Master Wei, my father has been ill in bed these days, so it is inconvenient for him to see guests. Please bear with me."
Ning Yuke seemed to feel guilty for "leaving her savior alone for several days", so she apologized as soon as she got in the car.
She actually didn't understand why her father was in good health but was not in a hurry to see Wei Changtian, and only asked her to invite someone today.
Ning Qingyu didn't give any explanation, so Ning Yuke had to come up with this reason herself.
Wei Changtian was well aware of this lame excuse, but he didn't say much. He just changed the subject and asked:
"Is your hand wound better?"
"Better."
Ning Yuke nodded slightly, hesitated for a moment and then asked in a low voice: "Sir, where is your injury?"
"It's all right now."
Wei Changtian looked at the veil on Ning Yuke's face and suddenly remembered that Yang Liushi also wore this thing when she went out before. It was his suggestion.
It’s just that one of them wanted to hide her beauty, while the other wanted to hide her ugliness.
"Sir, what are you looking at?"
It seemed that Wei Changtian had been staring at her for too long. Ning Yuke lowered her head in embarrassment and gave a gentle reminder.
"I'm sorry."
Wei Changtian didn't feel embarrassed. He moved his eyes away for a few seconds and then moved them back to Ning Yuke.
"Princess, there is actually one thing I have always been curious about."
"You can ask, sir."
"Um"
Wei Changtian asked directly: "The wound on your palm is so serious, why didn't you feel any pain when I applied the medicine and bandaged it that day?"
"this."
Ning Yuke was slightly stunned, and after a moment's silence, she said softly, "If I tell you, will you not tell others?"
"nature."
"Well, it's not that I'm not afraid of pain."
Ning Yuke explained in a low voice: "It's because I haven't known what pain is since I was a child."
Wei Changtian was a little surprised: "You mean there is no pain?"
"yes"
"That's a good thing, then."
Wei Changtian said this subconsciously, but when he saw Ning Yuke's slightly trembling shoulders, he closed his mouth again.
The carriage suddenly fell silent, until Ning Yuke calmed down and spoke again: "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, sir."
"I was abrupt."
Wei Changtian shook his head and roughly guessed why Ning Yuke had such a reaction.
No pain may sound good at first, but it actually has many disadvantages.
Pain is the body's way of self-protection and warning.
If you can't feel pain, not only will you not know you are sick, but to exaggerate, it is not impossible that you may even be scalded to death by drinking hot water.
It is fortunate that Ning Yuke was born in a wealthy family. If she were an ordinary child, she would have died in various accidents long ago.
Seeing that Wei Changtian seemed to understand, Ning Yuke did not explain anything more, but just laughed a little self-deprecatingly: "Don't be afraid of being laughed at, sir. In fact, I really want to know what pain is."
“.”
If some lsps heard this, they would probably have wild thoughts, but Wei Changtian didn't have that kind of special hobby, so he just nodded.
Ning Yuke lowered her eyes and stopped talking, but in fact she hadn't said another word.
She really wanted to tell Wei Changtian that when she saw Wei Changtian covered in blood that day, her heart seemed to ache.
A quarter of an hour later, the carriage slowly drove into the palace.
A servant had been waiting at the door. As soon as the two got off the car, he came up to Ning Yuke and said a few words, then took Wei Changtian along the path into the mansion.
It was obvious that Ning Qingyu was about to say something extremely secretive, something that even Ning Yuke didn't know.
Wei Changtian was not surprised by this, and soon followed the servant through many twists and turns and entered a dark room.
The dark room was not big, and there were already seven or eight people waiting inside.
Except Ning Qingyu, Wei Changtian also knew the others, or had met them all.
They were all important figures in Shuzhou whom Liang Zhen had once taken him to visit.
For example, the governor Shao Ying'an These people all had tea cups in their hands, but Wei Changtian would never believe that they were drinking tea and chatting here.
So many "big guys" gathered together, and at such a "sensitive" time . It seems that I have been involved in some big event. (End of this chapter)
