Well, what can such a fool say?
Ning Guogong suddenly felt a little bored. What was there to distinguish from a rough guy with such a name and title?
After getting the warrant back, he stepped directly through the gate and ran inside.
This time he did not bring any personal guards, and came alone, because those guards would not be allowed in the hidden guard place. This was also the rule of the hidden guards, and he knew it well.
"You didn't say anything when you came in. This old man is so rude, that's all. My lord, I don't care about him."
Ning Guogong was walking with great strides when he heard muttering from behind. He staggered and almost fell down. His face turned green and red for a while, and it took him a while to calm down his anger.
He told himself to pay attention to rest, but when he got here, he found that it was all fake. If he really encountered it, he would still get angry.
"I'm here to pick up Shanwen, not to fight."
"It's not worth arguing with uneducated soldiers."
After reciting it silently in his mind several times, Ning Guogong gradually regained his composure.
Not long after entering, he saw a tall man wearing armor and a sword striding towards him.
Ning Guogong Ning Yuan recognized this person. He was Ning Feng, the commander of the hidden guards.
On the surface, he looks majestic and has the attitude of a general, but why does everyone in the circle say that this Ning Feng is a flatterer?
This is unknown. Of course, now Ning Guogong Ning Yuan has come with a request, so naturally he will not be tense.
"Greetings to Mr. Ning Guo, what's going on today? Mr. Ning Guo can come to hide and guard. Do you have any instructions?" Ning Feng stepped forward and saluted with clasped fists, speaking sonorously and forcefully.
"Commander Ning, this is His Majesty's order. Please read it first."
Ning Guo Gong Ning Yuan did not directly tell his purpose, but first took out the warrant. This time he was frightened by Chen Sangou at the door. Who knows if this is the traditional pattern of the hidden guards.
Ning Feng had a smile on his face and took the order with a smile.
Even without looking at the warrant, he knew what Duke Ning Yuan wanted to do here. This was obvious.
However, he still had to take a closer look and figure out what the emperor's real intentions were. He, Ning Feng, was the real lackey of the emperor, so he naturally listened to the emperor's words.
After getting the warrant, Ning Feng first took a look at the jade seal. The seal was specially made and no one had the courage to forge it. After confirming that it was authentic, he opened the envelope and read Qi Xingyun's handwriting inside.
After reading it carefully, he basically understood the intention of His Majesty the Emperor Qi Xingyun.
It's not hard to guess Qi Xingyun's intention, which is to find an excuse to delay until Yang Ruoqing comes and leave the matter to Yang Ruoqing.
Since this is the emperor's intention, Ning Feng will naturally implement it to the letter.
"Ning Guogong is here. That's why our hidden guards are flourishing. I, Ning Feng, am a rough man and can't speak. Please be patient, Lord Ning. Please be patient."
As soon as Ning Feng's face changed, it immediately turned into a smile, and he raised his hand to invite.
This speed of face change made Ning Guogong Ning Yuan stunned. No wonder everyone said that Ning Feng was a flatterer. It was really not nonsense. Just because of this unpredictable face, you can already imagine it.
However, if you don't reach out to hit the smiling person, you can't say that Ning Feng greeted him with a smiling face, and Ning Guogong Ning Yuan would have drooped his face to show his expression.
Why, he came here to get people, that is, to ask for help from others, so how could he show his face to Ning Feng?
Ning Feng brought Ning Yuan to the nearby main room with a smile, and shouted loudly: "Come here, please prepare a pot of good tea for Mr. Ning Guo. Have you guys been itchy lately? We haven't even prepared any tea yet. How can such low-grade tea on the table be worthy of the status of a Duke?"
"Commander Ning, I'm here to take my nephew away. How about drinking this tea next time?" Ning Yuan was really worried.
Ning Feng immediately put away the smile on his face, sneered and shouted outside: "Ning Guogong has a noble status and doesn't care about the broken tea leaves in our small place. What should I do? It's all your fault for purchasing. What did you buy?"
"Commander Ning misunderstood. How could I not like tea? I didn't mean that." Ning Yuan hurriedly differentiated.
Ning Feng clenched his fists and sighed: "It's not the Duke's problem, it's really difficult. It's really difficult for us hidden guards. We can't even afford better tea. Now that the court has no money, it's been several months. I haven’t paid my brothers for months. It’s hard. The hidden guards are really hard..."
Speaking of this, Ning Feng burst into tears.
"My lord, you don't know how the brothers are living these days. I wish I could break them in half for even a penny. Just say that I, the commander, haven't eaten pork for seven days. It's miserable."
As Ning Feng spoke, he actually brought a few tears from his eyes.
Ning Guogong Ning Yuan was dumbfounded, who are these people?
No pork for seven days? How false this must be, it's simply nonsense, but the expression on Ning Feng's face was so sincere that he even shed a few tears...
This gesture made Ning Guogong Ning Yuan start to doubt himself. Is it true that Yinwei really has no money to pay his salary?
But his reason told him that this seemed impossible.
You must know that for an institution like the Hidden Guard, which is directly under the imperial power, the funds are all independent and separate. It is impossible for the Hidden Guard to be missing if anyone is missing. It cannot be justified from both a rational and legal perspective.
Therefore, the only possibility is that Ning Feng acted it out.
Such acting skills!
Ning Guogong Ning Yuan thought that Yinwei should be renamed Xiwei so that he could specialize in acting instead of crying about poverty.
"Commander Ning, any tea will do. I have been on the battlefield and led troops to fight. I have suffered all kinds of hardships. I am not that particular." Ning Guogong Ning Yuan had no choice but to explain.
"It turns out that I was overthinking it. I blame me for judging the heart of a gentleman with my petty heart. Come on, let me make tea for you, Mr. Guo."
Ning Feng suddenly smiled again and went to make tea by himself.
Ning Guogong Ning Yuan felt heartbroken, but at this time, he didn't dare to ask, and he didn't dare to say anything. Who knew if he would cause trouble again if he opened his mouth, so it was better to just shut up.
As for picking up Ning Shanwen, there was no rush. He had been waiting all day, and he didn't care about just a little while.
Seeing Ning Feng's clumsy tea-making gesture, Lord Ning Yuan felt as if there were thunderous thunders in his heart.
"Master Guo, look, this is the tea I brewed specially for you. It is definitely a rare and good tea for our hidden guards." Ning Feng brought the tea over respectfully.
"Launing is in charge."
Ning Yuan nodded, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, his face suddenly changed color.
