After hearing Ning Canghan's words, Lu Lan was a little confused for a moment.
He saved Ning Canghan, but also indirectly saved Ning Fenghe and the others?
Immediately afterwards, Ning Canghan's cold voice continued to sound:
"Haven't you ever thought that if it weren't for Lu Lan and your father died in the hands of a poisoner, the other party would easily let you go?"
Ning Canghan's words made everyone present startled.
Ning Jingfeng quickly understood, nodded, and said:
"Father is right. No matter who the poisoner is, if father really dies in his hands, he will most likely not let us go."
"My father was right when he said that Mr. Lu indirectly saved our lives."
Saying that, Ning Jingfeng suddenly turned around and bowed to Lu Lan:
"Jing Feng would like to thank Mr. Lu for saving his life."
Lu Lan: "..."
Ning Fenghe in the distance still looked resentful after hearing what he just said, but he did not dare to look at Lu Lan and Ning Canghan anymore.
"Now, come here and apologize to Lu Lan."
Ning Cang said coldly: "Otherwise, I will hand you into his hands and let him do whatever he wants."
As he said that, Ning Canghan glanced at Lu Lan:
"If he doesn't want to apologize to you, you don't have to worry about my face. It's up to you to kill him or cripple him."
Lu Lan was stunned for a moment, never expecting that Ning Canghan would dare to say such words in front of Xiao Zhihong's mother and son.
Hearing Ning Canghan's words, Xiao Zhihong's face changed drastically, and she quickly turned around and knelt down to Lu Lan:
"Lu Lan... No, Mr. Lu, please forgive Feng He! I apologized to you on his behalf!"
As he spoke, Xiao Zhihong kowtowed heavily to Lu Lan, directly breaking his scalp and causing blood to seep out.
Lu Lan looked a little surprised.
He didn't expect Xiao Zhihong to be willing to kneel down and kowtow to apologize to Ning Fenghe.
When Ning Fenghe saw his mother kowtow to Lu Lan and apologize, his eyes suddenly turned red and he almost broke his teeth.
Finally, he endured the severe pain in his chest and moved his knees to kneel over.
"Lu... Mr. Lu..."
"What happened this time was my fault. I shouldn't...shouldn't have listened to that woman and let her kill you..."
"please forgive me……"
After the words fell, he kowtowed heavily.
Lu Lan looked down at the mother and son, the coldness in his eyes not dissipating at all.
Xiao Zhihong once wanted to arrest him and put him in a dungeon.
If he hadn't been confident that he could definitely cure Ning Canghan, there would have been no other way out.
And Ning Fenghe... even contacted the woman from the Hehuan Sect and asked her to kill him.
Said it was impossible not to kill them.
But Ning Canghan and Ning Jingfeng were both very kind to him.
Naturally, he didn't want to make it difficult for them.
After letting out a gentle breath, Lu Lan said calmly:
"Okay, I don't want to see you again."
This is a disguised form of letting them go.
"Thank you...Thank you Mr. Lu..."
Xiao Zhihong burst into tears of gratitude and quickly pulled Ning Fenghe to bend down and kowtow again.
"You will be punished with three months of confinement, and you will not be allowed to leave your respective courtyards."
Ning Canghan's indifferent voice sounded: "Get out of here now."
Xiao Zhihong quickly picked up Ning Fenghe and left.
When the two of them left, the indifferent look on Ning Canghan's face finally disappeared, replaced by a smiling face:
"Lu Lan, did you let them go because of my sake?"
After hesitating for a moment, Lu Lan nodded: "Yes, I don't want to make it difficult for you."
"If you really want to kill Feng He, I really won't let you do it to him."
"But if you want to destroy him, then I will still agree."
Ning Canghan looked at the direction Xiao Zhihong and her son were leaving and sighed:
"This kid Feng He has been spoiled by his mother since he was a child. He doesn't look like me at all."
"If he were even half as good as Jing Feng, I wouldn't do this to him."
"I hope this lesson will make that kid remember better."
After saying this, Ning Canghan suddenly said:
"I have forcefully searched his soul just now. Regarding that Hehuan Sect woman..."
Ning Canghan told the memory he had obtained through soul searching.
To put it simply, the women from the Hehuan Sect had been staying in the brothel where Ning Fenghe often went for a long time.
It was even earlier than Lu Lan Chuyun came to Wuyun County.
And when Ning Fenghe was having a drink with that woman one time, he used the strength of his wine to say Lu Lan's name, which made the Hehuan Sect woman remember it completely.
In other words, the Hehuan Sect women were not actually ordered by Ning Fenghe.
However, after Ning Fenghe learned that she was a woman from the Hehuan Sect, he did not tell Ning Canghan about his identity, but instead allowed her to look for opportunities to attack Lu Lan in the county.
This is why Ning Canghan must ask Ning Fenghe to apologize to Lu Lan.
Although it is unintentional, if you do something wrong, you have done something wrong, and you cannot expose it lightly.
After learning such an inside story, Lu Lan immediately understood that he was now being targeted not only by the person who cast the poison, but also by the Hehuan Sect.
The Hehuan Sect was probably desperately trying to avoid being pursued by the royal family, and the woman probably wanted to continue to ambush and hide.
As a result, Lu Lan suddenly appeared in Wuyun County, and she thought of killing Lu Lan to vent her hatred for the sect.
However, this idea completely cost her her life.
"It seems that when I become strong enough in the future, I will have to destroy the Hehuan Sect with my own hands..."
Lu Lan thought in her heart.
And the Zhuiming Pavilion.
Just as he thought of the man in black in Zhuiming Pavilion, Lu Lan asked:
"Your Majesty, is there really no progress in the investigation of the man who planted the poison?"
Hearing this, Ning Canghan suddenly smiled and said:
"I recalled the things you asked Jing Feng to tell me last time, and I found that someone did give me a potted plant."
With that said, Ning Canghan led Lu Lan and Ning Jingfeng towards the depths of the courtyard.
A small tree planted in a porcelain pot stood there quietly, with profound energy fluctuations surging around it. It was obviously sealed by Ning Canghan's mysterious energy.
"This potted plant was placed exactly three months ago."
Ning Canghan said:
"It just so happened that no one gave me potted plants after that."
Because he had symptoms at that time.
The number of people who originally wanted to come to give gifts and build closer relationships suddenly decreased a lot.
This is very realistic.
Hearing this, Lu Lan asked directly:
"Then the princess, have you remembered who gave you this potted plant?"
"Haha, of course I remember."
Ning Canghan turned around, walked towards the courtyard, and looked at the courtyard gate:
"Counting the time, he should be here soon."
Hearing this, Lu Lan and Ning Jingfeng looked at each other.
Are they from the Princess's Mansion again?
Why are there so many moles in the princess's mansion?
They were not kept waiting too long.
A slightly stooped figure knocked on the courtyard door. With Ning Canghan's permission, he opened the door and walked in.
The moment they saw each other, Lu Lan and Ning Jingfeng's expressions changed instantly.
Ning Jingfeng's pupils even shrank.
Because the other party... is Wen Muren, the chief steward of the entire princess's mansion!
