"How I treat my enemies is not something you should interfere with."
Ni Hongbo's expression froze: "General, you just want to protect her and go against me, right?"
"You can think of it that way!" Zou Yangyao said with great pride.
Ni Hongbo's face turned pale with anger. "Okay, very good. Since you are willing to become my enemy, then I don't need to be polite anymore!"
"Come, come, take down General Zou!"
The guards standing behind Ni Hongbo hesitated: "Master, we are no match for the general. Let's leave quickly!"
"Yes, Master, let's leave now!"
Ni Hongbo's face darkened. "What's the point of supporting a bunch of you? At the most critical moment, you actually backed out!"
"That's because I have prestige, and they're afraid of me!" Zou Yangyao stepped forward, approaching Ni Hongbo. "If you're not convinced, then challenge me personally and have a good fight."
Seeing Zou Yangyao approaching step by step, Ni Hongbo couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"You'll regret making an enemy of me!" Ni Hongbo threatened, then turned and said coldly to his subordinates behind him, "You bunch of trash, get out of here!"
"Where are you planning to go, young master?" A cold voice came from behind the crowd. Ni Hongbo turned around and saw that it was Qingfeng. Qingfeng was walking towards him with a strong and cold aura.
"The Second Prince asked me to protect the young lady well, but what about you, Young Master? You are siblings by blood, but what are you doing?"
Ni Hongbo frowned: "Why, you, a servant, want to teach me a lesson?"
Qingfeng's lips curled up in disdain: "Master, don't forget, I am not only the young lady's man, but also the Second Prince's man. My duty is to obey the Second Prince's orders and protect the young lady!"
Qingfeng unsheathed the sword at his waist, and a flash of light flashed, reflecting on Ni Hongbo's face. Ni Hongbo said angrily: "What a rebellion! A slave is so arrogant in front of this young master!"
He snatched the long sword from his subordinate, roared angrily, and rushed towards Qingfeng.
Ni Yueshan watched coldly, and standing behind Qingfeng, he warned, "Don't be polite, this guy deserves to be punished. Knock him down and tie him up!"
Seeing Ni Yueshan's cold look, Zou Yangyao's mouth corners slightly raised, and finally he turned around and left silently.
Ni Hongbo was no match for Qingfeng and failed to defeat him, so Qingfeng held a sword to his neck.
He looked at Qingfeng with anger on his face. Ni Yueshan stepped forward and said, "Tie him up and take him to the Prime Minister's residence!"
It was late at night, and the capital was pitch black. There were no pedestrians on the streets, and even the prime minister's residence was closed and extremely quiet.
At the gate of the prime minister's residence, Ni Hongbo was gagged, his hands and feet tied, and hung upside down in front of the gate. Then Ni Yueshan and others turned around and left.
In Mingyan's room, the doctor had already examined her and left early. Ni Yueshan stood by and asked worriedly, "How is she doing?"
"The doctor said he took a large amount of knockout drug, so he has been sleeping all the time. He will probably wake up tomorrow, but..."
"Just what?"
"Mingyan is pregnant..."
Ni Yueshan was surprised: "...Then go and see what the housekeeper is doing?"
Qingdie understood, stood up and left.
Ni Yueshan returned to Jidong Pavilion and took a shower. He felt cold all over and his head started to feel dizzy. It turned out that one should not soak in cold water.
Qingdie went to see the housekeeper and came over to report: "Miss, the housekeeper is sleeping in the room."
"Are you sure he's sleeping soundly and not unconscious?"
"Breathing is shallow and even, not coma!"
Ni Yueshan was able to remain silent. In the eyes of the housekeeper, perhaps Mingyan was just a fresh young woman for whom he had no feelings. And Mingyan was pregnant. I wonder if it was a blessing or a curse for her?
"Okay, go back and get some rest."
Qingdie looked at a piece of clothing lying beside her and asked hesitantly, "Miss, the general came to your rescue today. You won't develop any feelings for him, will you?"
Ni Yueshan chuckled: "What kind of feelings can I have for him?"
"I'm afraid that you, young lady, will rekindle your old feelings for the general..."
"You think too much, no."
Qingdie then turned and left.
The next day, when the servant who opened the door to the Prime Minister's residence saw a man hanging at the door, he was startled. He calmed himself down and looked at the man again, "Young Master?"
He was surprised, hesitant, and then quickly put Ni Hongbo down.
"Master, what's wrong with you? Who would dare to do this to you?"
The cloth gag was removed from Ni Hongbo's mouth. He was furious and said, "Don't tell anyone about this!"
Just as he finished speaking, a man walked out of the mansion. He was wearing court robes. Seeing Ni Hongbo sitting on the ground and the ropes binding his body, Ni Gaofei's eyes were filled with indifference.
He took a step forward without even glancing at Ni Hongbo.
Ni Hongbo got up from the ground and said to Ni Gaofei's back, "Dad, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have brought my wife's coffin back. She was a divorced woman. The Tian family doesn't recognize her, and neither can our Xiangfu!"
Ni Gaofei paused before responding, "How long have you been away from the palace? Do you still want your official position?"
Ni Hongbo was stunned: "Hongbo tomorrow, tomorrow I will definitely go back to work!"
Ni Gaofei said nothing more and lowered himself to get into the sedan chair.
Ni Hongbo moved his numb body. His entire body was bruised from being tied up, and his head was congested, causing his eyes to turn red and feel extremely uncomfortable. He was helped into the mansion by his servants, and it took him a while to recover.
