Chapter 169 Zeng Anmin: So the real enemy of my father and son is Duke Ning Guo! !
"Back then, disciple Jiang Hu came back and entered the military camp with the help of his old friend Zhongyuan Bofu."
Wu Qianfeng's eyes fell into memories, and there was a trace of vicissitudes in the corner of his mouth:
"In the peaceful and prosperous times, the military camp seemed peaceful, but in fact there were many parties."
"Fortunately, Huang Gong, the former Minister of War, is quite capable."
"He has mastered the control of many honorable men and his old subordinates very well, and even some shameful and despicable methods can't be dealt with by Mr. Huang."
"I also found out after entering the military camp for a long time that King Qi worked under Ning Guogong Li Jian before, until the eve of the Yinwu Demon Slayer outbreak seven years ago, and he was sent to the battlefield under Ning Guogong's arrangement."
"After he came back with military exploits, he was recommended to Ji Qing by Li Jian. This allowed King Qi, a marginalized member of the royal family, to enter the Imperial City Department and establish a foothold in Beijing."
Zeng Anmin grasped an extremely sensitive information.
He looked at Wu Qianfeng with burning eyes and asked:
"In other words, King Qi is a member of Duke Ning..."
After saying that, Zeng Anmin's eyes showed a sparkle, and he looked at Wu Qianfeng:
"I have never heard of such secrets."
Wu Qianfeng sighed: "In the past, Huang Gong upheld everything in the military."
"The relationship between Ning Guo Gong and Huang Gong is not very harmonious..."
"Therefore, during Huang Gong's tenure, Ning Guogong's behavior was extremely restrained, and he deliberately erased all traces of past events. I only learned of these secrets by chance after spending a long time in the army."
Huang Yuangao?
A flash of inspiration flashed in Zeng Anmin's mind!
In whose hands did Huang Yuangao die?
The exquisite work of Eastern religion!
After my step-by-step investigation, the Eastern teaching exercises were most likely related to Concubine Xi, the daughter of Ning Guogong!
Then reason further.
Ning Guogong delegated power even though he was in the public eye.
But he still secretly controls the military power in Beijing. After all, he has fought all his life, and many people in the army are his subordinates...
So instead of Huang Yuangao, the Minister of War, fighting openly and secretly...
Or maybe Huang Yuangao has something against Ning Guogong!
So when Huang Yuangao was sent to Liangjiang County as governor, Ning Guogong secretly united with the demon clan and the Eastern Cult to kill him...
The thought of this possibility.
Zeng Anmin felt it was extremely reasonable! !
It was speculated at that time that Huang Yuangao, a Confucian cultivator, had to die because the demon clan wanted to steal the dragon map.
But now that I have the information about Ning Guogong, if I go to see it...
There is a deep shadow of party struggle in this!
Think of this.
A chill emerged in Zeng Anmin's heart.
Now, everything becomes traceable.
Why did Liu Chengqian, the inexplicable minister of the Ministry of Industry, jump out of nowhere to embarrass his father and son?
first.
Because of Huang Yuangao's case, Liu Chengqian came forward to recommend Bai Ziqing to Liangjiang County, which made Zeng Anmin suspect that Ning Guogong might be behind it.
Because Ning Guogong had a "secret connection" with the Eastern religion, Zeng Anmin knew it early on.
Now it seems that it is very clear.
Behind Liu Chengqian is Ning Guogong Li Jian!
Thinking of this, Zeng Anbian's hand lightly paused.
His eyes suddenly burst into light.
Why did Ren Weizhi embarrass his father and son when he first came to Beijing?
Concubine Xi... Duke Ning!
besides!
Why is King Qi's bird boy so unwilling to deal with his father and son? !
They all seemed to suddenly jump out of nowhere and disgust their father and son...
Now Zeng Anmin seems to have found the real traces.
Ning Guogong!
The source of all this has an extremely close relationship with Ning Guogong!
Why?
Because his father is now the Minister of War! !
In an instant, various clues emerged in Zeng Anmin's mind.
All the clues point to one person!
Ning Guogong Li Jian! !
Party strife!
This is definitely a partisan fight!
Zeng Anmin clenched his fist tightly.
He breathed a sigh of relief slowly.
Then he continued to look at Wu Qianfeng.
I will tell dad this information when I get back tonight.
"What's wrong with you?"
Wu Qianfeng looked at Zeng Anmin's somewhat red face.
There was a hint of confusion on his face.
Zeng Anmin smiled and waved his hands and said: "Nothing, just some minor problems."
Having said this, he looked up at Wu Qianfeng and asked with narrowed eyes:
"Let's come here today. I'll go back first if I have to."
After saying that, he couldn't wait to stand up and walk towards the distance.
Wu Qianfeng looked at Zeng Anmin's back.
Somewhat stunned.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something.
But he was interrupted by the waiter in his ear.
"The guest official Chenghui, thirty taels."
The waiter looked at Wu Qianfeng with a smile.
Wu Qianfeng's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked towards Zeng Anmin's disappearing back:
“The guy just now didn’t pay??”
"Oh, that young master said you would treat me today."
The smile on the waiter's face became even brighter.
Wu Qianfeng rolled his throat and touched his pocket up and down.
No money was touched.
"This..."
There was a touch of embarrassment on his face: "I went out in a hurry today and didn't bring any money. Can I get credit first? I am a sword guard..."
"Haha." The waiter's face twitched slightly.
He looked at Wu Qianqian lukewarmly and said: "Credit is also available. You need to pledge something valuable here."
"..."
…………
"Drive!!"
Zeng Anmin waved the riding crop in his hand, his eyes flashing with an extremely frightening light.
"Ning Guogong..."
His lips moved slightly.
"Li Jian."
He repeated the name over and over again.
Finally, the horsepower kick is pretty good.
Soon he returned to Shangshu Di.
"Master, are you back?"
"Well, where's my dad?!"
Zeng Anmin casually handed the horse's rein to the slave and looked at Uncle Qi.
There was solemnity in his eyes.
"The master is in the study."
"Okay!"
Zeng Anmin didn't hesitate at all. He walked directly towards his father's study.
Not long after, they arrived at Dad's courtyard.
"Dad!"
Zeng Anmin didn't think twice and opened his father's door directly.
Then he petrified in place.
He opened his mouth blankly.
"Aunt Lin...you...you are here too..."
Then, his face suddenly turned red and he turned his head and looked outside:
"No one stopped me, you said..."
"This is a big deal..."
……
In the study room.
At this time, Dad was holding Aunt Lin's waist, chewing the grapes handed to him by Aunt Lin's delicate jade fingers...
Aunt Lin's face turned red.
After seeing Zeng Anmin, Aunt Lin was like a frightened deer. She blushed and lowered her head, not daring to look up again.
The father looked calm, and he adjusted his collar unhurriedly. Then he snorted coldly:
"It's violent! It's like this every day, and you have no manners!"
"What kind of behavior is this?!"
Zeng Anmin turned around. After seeing his father, he ignored Aunt Lin and said:
"Dad, I came to see you today because I have something important to discuss with you."
Dad nodded lightly, then looked at Aunt Lin and said:
"You should go back to your room first."
"It's the master."
Aunt Lin bit her lip, not daring to raise her head to look at Zeng Anmin, and walked out of the house as if running away.
"Crack."
Until the study door is closed.
Dad then spoke slowly. He sat on the chair, gently clasped the tea bowl in his hand and asked:
"Why are you here today?"
Please...you...collect 6...9...books...!
Zeng Anmin's eyes became serious.
He took a gentle breath, and then sat across from his father. He did not speak out his doubts first, but first expressed his thoughts as if discussing:
"Dad, I want to follow this expedition to the south."
Zeng Anmin looked towards his father.
He really didn't want to hold it in any longer.
The seventh-level martial arts visualization realm was stuck for too long, and he wanted to see if he could find an opportunity on the battlefield.
One day in Beijing, it is difficult for him to break through.
Therefore, this southern expedition is a good reason.
Dad's eyes flashed with surprise.
He looked at Zeng Anmin, nodded expressionlessly:
"Yes."
"Huh?"
Zeng Anmin didn't expect his father to agree so readily.
He blinked and asked blankly: "You won't persuade me anymore?"
Dad sighed slowly, looked out the window and said:
"Have you listened to the rumors coming from Liangjiang County today?"
Zeng Anmin remembered what Chuan Yanjun had heard before.
He frowned and said, "I heard about it."
The general meaning of the rumor seems to be that my father has been an official on Fengqi Road for many years and deliberately condones the demon clan in Fengqi Road.
Otherwise, how could the demon clan members easily show up in Liangjiang County to kill Huang Yuangao and steal the dragon exploration map...
This sounds like a rumor without any basis.
"Rumors are not terrible, but who heard the rumors is terrible."
The father slowly raised his head and looked at Zeng Anmin: "Why did King Qi fall and forget about it?"
"Isn't it just you and I who grabbed some unnecessary things to make him break his trust with His Majesty and cause his death?!"
Zeng Anmin's expression changed slightly:
"You noticed?"
"Well, recently many officials in the DPRK and China have been putting pressure on me, overtly or covertly..."
The father's eyes became solemn: "So whether this message is true or false, you and I, father and son, must have an attitude."
"A father must not leave the court easily."
"So, you go out to the capital with the Yuanyang Army to conquer the monsters."
"In addition, His Majesty intends to promote you. After returning from this battle, your future path will be much broader."
"Be able to gain some prestige in the military, and be known as a great talent among civil servants..."
I don’t know if Zeng Anmin heard it wrong.
Why do you feel that dad's tone seems a little... sour? ? ?
"Yeah."
Zeng Anmin nodded thoughtfully.
"Just now you said that someone is putting pressure on you, covertly or covertly...who are they?"
Zeng Anmin looked at his father tentatively and asked.
"There are Li Dang, there are eunuchs, there are too many people... Even a father can't see clearly."
Zeng Shilin slowly raised his head and looked at Zeng Anmin with a half-smile:
"What? Do you know?"
Zeng Anmin blinked:
"You're really right."
"I wonder, dad, do you remember Ning Guogong?"
Zeng Anmin squinted his eyes, and there was a hint of solemnity in his voice.
"Ning Guogong?"
Dad knows that a good boy never takes aim without reason.
He narrowed his eyes and looked towards Zeng Anmin.
"Listen to me and tell me slowly..."
Zeng Anmin began to slowly explain his analysis and some secret information he heard from Wu Qianfeng.
There are also all the things that happened to the two of them after they came to Beijing.
Until the real cause of Huang Yuangao's death...
"Perhaps, the death of Huang Gong is very likely to be related to Ning Guogong..."
"And you are the newly promoted Minister of War...so you have a natural opposition to Ning Guogong."
After Zeng Anmin said everything.
The whole study became quiet.
Dad's face slowly darkened.
After a long time.
Zeng Shilin slowly raised his head, with a deep look in his eyes: "Li Dang, Eunuch Dang...everyone has thought about being a father...but not Ning Guogong Li Jian..."
"This man has not been in the court for a long time. Since my father came to Beijing, I have only met him a handful of times...I never thought..."
The more Dad thought about it, the colder his heart became.
"You have so many things to do every day, it is inevitable that you will be negligent. Moreover, Ning Guogong is so cunning and cunning that he has caused so much trouble to you and me, father and son, without even showing his face..."
Zeng Anmin's eyes also narrowed, and his voice slowly turned cold:
"It's not too late to make amends. It's better to know where the enemy is now than to know after he's dead."
"You are quite good at talking."
Dad glanced at Zeng Anmin.
"Hey."
Zeng Anmin smiled naively.
"So how are you going to deal with the eldest princess?"
Zeng Shilin looked at Zeng Anmin with no emotion or anger in his eyes.
"The eldest princess?"
Zeng Anmin scratched his head: "How can I deal with it? The Xihuang Tu is nothing more than dirt to me. If I really find it one day, I can give it to her."
"Ha!" Dad sneered: "What you said is easy. Each of the four heavenly maps is a treasure!"
"I can give it to you if you want."
Zeng Anmin took out his ears and looked at his father lazily:
"You should be more careful with Mr. Ning Guo! Don't accidentally get in his way."
"As a father, you don't need to remind me."
…………
"Then in what capacity should I go out with the army?"
Zeng Anmin crossed his arms and looked at his father with doubts in his tone.
"The Yuanyang Army formation came from you, do you still want to be a soldier in the formation?"
Dad glanced at Zeng Anmin and continued:
"I have asked you to be the deputy commander of the Yuanyang Army."
"I'm not a martial artist..." Zeng Anmin's tone was a little weak. He looked at his father and asked cautiously:
"I'm afraid this is unethical?"
The father sneered: "The Yuanyang Formation is a new formation created by you, and the Yuanyang Army is a new army. Each Yuanyang Formation needs to be equipped with a Confucian cultivator. When has there been such an army before?"
< br>
“Shouldn’t there be one more Confucian cultivator leader?”
Zeng Anmin gave a thumbs up: "As expected of the Minister of the Ministry of War, he is thoughtful, dad!"
"Hmph."
Dad snorted coldly, and then took a slow breath.
No words were spoken for a long time.
He walked to the window, carrying Zeng Anmin on his back, and a faint voice came:
"When you encounter a demon clan person, hide behind Qin Shoucheng if you can."
"When you encounter the troops of King Jiang Nan, hide behind the eldest princess if you can."
"In everything, your own life is the most important thing, do you understand?"
Zeng Anmin gave an extremely dignified military salute to his father's back:
"Guaranteed to complete the task!!"
"Well, you can go back to your own courtyard."
"Okay."
"Yeah, by the way, call Aunt Lin over... What does your kid look like? My father asked her to clean up the debris on the table..."
