After receiving Ning Yunxiao's reply, Ning Hong was ready to go all out, but before that, she needed to clear out the hidden bombs around them.
For example, Xing'er?
Although Ning Feng'er was simple-minded and prone to crying, she wasn't stupid. From Xing'er's actions, she could naturally tell that Xing'er had a problem.
There's another circle.
We need to continue observing.
Ning Feng'er was patient, but Xing'er couldn't stand it anymore.
The food at this manor was terrible; she desperately wanted to return to Jiuxiao Manor.
But what excuse should we use?
Her father and mother are sick? She needs to go back to take care of them.
But what should we do with the medicine?
As Xing'er pondered an excuse to leave, she carefully poured the medicine powder into the dish.
This is the braised pork ribs she made for Ning Feng'er.
Miss loves her pork ribs the most.
Xing'er used a spatula to stir-fry it a couple more times, and a fragrant aroma wafted out, making her almost unable to resist the temptation.
Xing'er sniffed the aroma in the air before happily plating the ribs and picking them up.
"These ribs look pretty delicious." But as soon as she turned around, she saw Ning Feng'er looking at her from behind.
She shuddered, scattering all the ribs in her hands onto the ground.
What are you doing here, Miss?
How much did she see?
Did you see her drug her?
If she saw it? Xing'er felt a little nervous, and she couldn't speak. Her knees buckled and she knelt on the ground.
"Miss?"
"What? Weren't you quite comfortable when you were administering the drug?" Ning Feng'er was quite direct, stating the obvious.
"No, Miss, this is not poison. This is a tonic given to me by the Second Young Master. He told me to add it to these dishes to supplement your nutrition."
Xing'er explained in a flustered and confused manner.
"Oh, these are tonics. How about this, you eat all these ribs, and I'll believe you that they're all tonics?" Ning Feng'er pointed to the ribs on the ground.
Xing'er's face turned pale.
"Miss, are all these dirty?"
"It's dirty? So you don't want to eat it?"
Ning Feng'er's face instantly darkened. "Are you going to eat or not?" Her soft, cute voice and stunningly beautiful face made her appear less intimidating even when she was being stern.
Xing'er was just feeling guilty, and because she lacked confidence, her fear was obvious on her face.
"Feng'er, why waste words with her? Just send it back. Oh, and by the way, pick up these ribs too and send them back so the doctor in the manor can examine them and see what kind of junk they are."
"Young master, young master, you can't do this! You can't send Xing'er back to the manor! Please, Xing'er was just confused for a moment. Please spare Xing'er's life!"
Seeing that her life was in danger, Xing'er knelt and took two steps forward, looking at Ning Hongze with a flirtatious glint in her eyes.
"Tsk tsk, in a moment of confusion, she could turn her back on her master. If she had done it on purpose, would Feng'er still be alive?"
Ning Hong ignored Xing'er's advances and said, "Yuan Shi, you personally take her back. Remember, deliver her to my father."
"Yes." Yuan Shi nodded. "I don't know where he found a rope, but he tied Xing'er up."
"Young master, young master, young lady, I didn't mean it. I was just confused for a moment. Young master, young lady, young lady, please forgive me. Please forgive me this time, for the sake of the time I've served you since I was a child."
The second young master ordered her to do this, and the manor lord had no idea. If the manor lord found out that she had plotted to harm the young master and young lady, she probably wouldn't survive.
The only thing we can rely on now is the young lady's soft heart.
Miss is always soft-hearted and extremely simple-minded, and the young master dotes on her. As long as Miss is willing to forgive him, the young master will definitely let her go.
She had wanted to leave this place for a long time.
If they were willing to let her go, she would leave immediately and go straight back to her residence.
"take away."
Unfortunately, Ning Hong didn't give her much time, not even enough time for Xing'er to say a few more words, and directly had Yuan Shi send her back.
Ning Yunxiao received Ning Hongze's letter for the second time.
The last letter made Ning Yunxiao chuckle and feel happy, but this time, it made him extremely depressed.
His son actually said he was poisoned, and even Feng'er was poisoned.
Feng'er was poisoned by her personal maid.
Ning Yunxiao was displeased, and his gaze toward Xing'er became increasingly ruthless.
The doctor took the spare ribs that Yuanshi had brought in for testing, and soon after, he came back with a dark expression.
"Master, this medicine is called Drunken Branch."
"Zui Zhi?"
"This is a slow-acting poison. It does not kill immediately, but long-term use of this poison will make a person's body extremely weak."
"you mean???????"
"The young master is weak and unable to practice martial arts, which is very likely due to this Drunken Branch." The doctor touched his nose, feeling somewhat nervous.
"Since you know so much about this medicine, why have you never mentioned it when the young master has been poisoned for so many years?" Ning Yunxiao's face was ashen, and he had a vague idea in his mind.
He remembered that when Hong was young, his health seemed to be quite good, and he made rapid progress in learning martial arts at that time.
When he was learning their family's palm techniques, he learned them even faster than Cheng Ze. He was overjoyed, thinking that the Ning family was finally going to have a martial arts prodigy.
But as Hong grew older, her body became weaker and weaker, and her martial arts skills declined. Now, she is almost powerless and has become a laughing stock in their Nine Heavens Manor.
If it really is because of the medication, then Hong Ze has been... quite pitiful all these years.
"Master." Seeing Ning Yunxiao's dark face, the doctor immediately knelt down. "It's not that I can't see the young master's problem, but over the years, Madam has never allowed me to treat him. When the young master is seriously ill, it's always Xiao Yuan, who serves Miss, who takes care of him."
Thinking of all this, the doctor was utterly astonished. The lady was the young master's biological mother. How could she do such a thing to her son? Had she lost her mind?
Ning Yunxiao's expression turned even uglier.
When he received Hong Ze's letter last time, he was happy that there was no infighting among the brothers in his Nine Heavens Manor. He never expected that not long after, he would be slapped in the face and be stunned.
"Perhaps the madam and young master are unaware of this matter."
Jiuquan frowned but didn't say anything.
That's what he said, but Jiu Quan felt a pang of sadness. If the second young master really did such a thing, then...
He was willing to harm his own brothers for the sake of inheritance, so he would care even less about these people.
The second young master is not a good candidate to inherit the manor.
"Nine Springs, do you believe what you're saying?"
The underworld remains silent.
"See? Even I myself don't believe it."
