"What? Became the prey of the Qinglian Sect?"
"General, don't be surprised. You heard me right. It has indeed become the possession of the Qinglian Sect. To be more precise, not only that shop, but all the shops that Miss Lu Er came to as a dowry have become Qinglian Sect. "Yes." Mrs. Ning was a little surprised, "You haven't heard of it? You shouldn't!"
"I've really never heard of it." Xue Ruitian was also very confused. He looked at Shen Cha and then at Shen Haolin, who was very calm. "We know that Ning Changguo may work for the Qinglian Sect, but we haven't heard that he even owns his family property. All contributed to the Green Lotus Sect."
"Maybe my expression is not very accurate, how should I put it?" Mrs. Ning thought for a while, "In the official office, the owner of the shop was still Miss Lu Er, but the real boss behind the scenes was already the Qinglian Sect. At that time, When the Ning Mansion ransacked their homes, they should have confiscated all their property. I wonder if it also includes these shops?"
"Included!" Shen Haolin nodded, "As long as it is under the name of Ning Mansion, it is included. So, the estrangement between their brothers started at this time?"
"Ning Changguo thinks so. He thinks it is a very good thing for Ning Changnian to take the initiative to do business. After all, this is his plan. He has never thought of letting Ning Changnian pursue an official career, although Ning Changnian is also considered to be knowledgeable. Many talents, but not suitable for official career, more suitable for business." Ning Changguo sighed softly, "Ning Changguo also spent a lot of effort to choose such a path for Ning Changnian. The main thing was to persuade the couple in Zhongzhou. That couple had always hoped that their own son could become a high official instead of a businessman."
"But Ning Changnian likes it, right?"
"Yes, Ning Changnian likes it, and he supports Ning Changguo's decision." Mrs. Ning smiled helplessly, "Ning Changguo said that this is one of the few times that the brothers have the same opinion and jointly fight against their parents. However, at that time, Ningchang Kingdom was already in the second rank, and it already had considerable majesty in front of the couple in Zhongzhou. Although they dared to oppose Ningchang Kingdom's decision, if Ningchang Kingdom insisted on persisting to the end, they would not dare to Disobedient."
"So, Ning Changnian still took the path of doing business. However, Ning Changguo's vision is indeed quite accurate. Ning Changnian is very talented in business." Xue Ruitian stretched his waist and sat down. A little tired, he stood up and wandered slowly in the room, "Ning Changnian wanted his sister-in-law's dowry shop. Ning Changguo didn't agree because he was already working for the Qinglian Sect. But Ning Changnian couldn't say it clearly. We can only give Ning Changnian the capital and let him open a new one by himself, right? But wasn’t Ning Changguo’s original plan to train a capable assistant for himself? This assistant will definitely not be an assistant in the court. , must be his helper in the Qinglian Sect. Since Miss Lu Er's dowry has already been working for the Qinglian Sect, then there is no problem in letting him take over the shop directly, so why bother?"
"Because we need to investigate." Mrs. Ning sighed softly, "I don't know whether Ningchang Kingdom wants to investigate or the Qinglian Sect wants to investigate. Besides, Ning Changnian had never been in contact with the Qinglian Sect at that time. No one knows whether he will be loyal to the Green Lotus Sect, so you have to observe him and train him bit by bit to become your assistant."
"Well, this reason is quite acceptable." Shen Cha nodded, "So, their brothers gradually became more open and honest later, right?"
"That's what Ning Changguo said. He didn't say it very specifically. I know that in addition to matters in the court, he is also related to the Qinglian Sect. After all, the Ning family itself is related to the Qinglian Sect. At this point, he It’s not like you’re hiding anything from me. It’s just..."
"Just what?"
"Ever since Ning Changnian got involved in the affairs of the Qinglian Sect, he began to feel vaguely uneasy. He didn't know where this uneasiness came from, but he just found it strange. After Ning Changnian came into contact with the Qinglian Sect, , his temper gradually started to get louder. Although Ning Changguo was his elder brother, he would occasionally quarrel with his elder brother, and the conflicts between the two brothers became more and more."
"Is this conflict related to the Qinglian Sect?"
"Yeah!" Mrs. Ning nodded, "He didn't say anything particularly specific, but two people will always have differences on a certain task, but most of the time, Ning Changguo's ideas are often recognized, and Ning Changnian's The opinion is not to be adopted, once or twice.
There is no problem. Ning Changnian may feel that he is inexperienced or something, but if the times are too many, he will feel dissatisfied, not only with Ning Changguo, but also with the Qinglian Sect. He feels that they do not trust him enough and do not trust him enough. Believe in his loyalty but not his decision. "
"It seems that this should be the main reason for reporting. If you don't want me to feel comfortable, I won't let you live well. After all, the Qinglian Sect is the emperor's inverse scale, and the emperors of the four dynasties have absolutely no tolerance for the Qinglian Sect. Yes, he would never tolerate it once he found out, so in order to make Ning Changguo and Qinglian Sect suffer, he went to report it." At this point, Xue Ruitian stood behind Shen Haolin and held his hand. Shoulder, "But, that's not quite right. Ning Changguo had already been imprisoned at that time. What he did was adding fuel to the fire, right? It can only put Ning Mansion into a more dangerous situation, right?"
"I don't know about this." Mrs. Ning shook her head gently, "I only know that when Ning Changguo came to see me, he felt that something was wrong with Ning Changnian. He was mysterious all day long and often disappeared for several days. The figure didn't know what he was doing, and his feeling of uneasiness became even stronger. I don't know if his intuition was particularly accurate, or if Ning Changnian had already started planning to report it from that time. Anyway, more than two years later, The Ningchang Kingdom incident happened, and the Ning Mansion was completely defeated." At this point, she thought for a moment, "Maybe there is more evidence in the box left for you."
"Is this all the old lady knows?"
"I know everything I have told you. There is nothing I can do about the relationship between Ningchang Kingdom and the Qinglian Sect. I came here this time to fulfill Xiao Chengzi's wish. However, from my own perspective, I also hope that See the destruction of the Ning family in Chaozhou as soon as possible."
"On this point, Madam, you can rest assured. Just because of Ning Changguo's identity, it's hard for them to escape. What's more, there is someone like Sister Ning Cheng. They can't escape at all."
"Then thank you all in advance!" Mrs. Ning stood up and bowed to the three people. Seeing them hurriedly trying to help herself, she waved her hands gently, "No need to help me, I'm not old enough to need anyone else." The degree of support."
"Old lady, please sit down quickly!"
"I've said everything that needs to be said. Do you have any other questions?"
"There is one last question." Shen Cha thought for a while, "It has nothing to do with the Ning family or Ning Chang Kingdom. It is about your family's cargo ship."
"General, please speak."
"The Green Lotus Sect ships goods through your family's cargo ship. The Ning family's dock is their destination. So, where is it?"
