LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 25
The eight-immortal table was filled with delicious food and fragrant aroma.
But Zhou Hua, Tong Zhou, and Wei Ran were on pins and needles, their eyes were erratic, as if they had lost their souls.
“Three?”
Ning Fan spoke softly.
The three of them shuddered, came back to their senses, and smiled with emotion.
“Ning Fan, Ning Fan, you really gave me a big surprise. From a lowly person to a captain, your deeds are unique in the whole Great Zhou!”
“Come on, I’ll toast you a glass!”
As the host, Wei Ran naturally took the lead in raising the glass.
Ning Fan just looked at him with a smile, did not move, and naturally did not raise the glass.
“That… Ning Fan, the border is in turmoil right now, and the war is endless. General Zhennan showed his power and swallowed up tens of thousands of Beimang troops in one battle!”
“From top to bottom, everyone is happy, but there is no way to prevent Beimang’s army from attacking again, so we have to rely on you to protect our Ancheng.”
Wei Ran was a little embarrassed, put down the wine glass, and spoke again.
Tong Zhou, who was standing by, naturally knew that Ning Fan had bad intentions. He glanced at the two people beside him, gritted his teeth, stood up with a stiff upper lip, and spoke with the wine glass in hand.
“Lord Ning, before… we were powerless.”
“You also know that he is a general under the command of King Zhenbei. When he spoke, not to mention Ancheng, even the entire northern border would not dare to resist.”
“We… are innocent.”
Tong Zhou’s face was full of sadness, and the two people beside him nodded repeatedly to express their agreement.
There were only four of them in the room, and each of them knew exactly what was going on, so there was no need to hide it.
“I understand, I understand.”
Ning Fan smiled slightly.
“When you came, you killed more than a dozen yamen runners and vented your anger. In the future, we still have to join hands to manage Ancheng well.”
“So, tomorrow I will be the boss and ask all the rich people in the city to gather together and recognize our head of the city again. What do you think?”
Zhou Hua also stood up hurriedly, smiling flatteringly.
Ning Fan nodded: “That’s great.”
“Okay, I’m a little tired after the long journey. I’m not worthy of you three.”
After that, Ning Fan stood up and left.
When Ning Fan disappeared for a long time, the straight backs of the three people suddenly softened, and they were sweating and panicked.
They were not afraid of ordinary heads of the city. After all, they were not in the same system, and the head of the city was stationed there only temporarily.
At most, you are good, I am good, and everyone is good. It will pass with tolerance.
But this is Ning Fan!
Revenge for the murder of his father, hatred for the seizure of his family, who knows if Ning Fan will do something crazy, he has a thousand-man army!
“How about… I go to Qingzhou?”
Tong Zhou said cautiously.
Qingzhou!
The other two trembled all over, the general under the command of the King of Zhenbei was now guarding Qingzhou.
If he took action, Ning Fan alone would not be a concern.
Even if Xiao Feng came, he had to give Yang Xiao some face, otherwise, this group of people… humph, they might not be able to leave the northern border.
Wei Ran shook his head: “Not appropriate!”
“What will we say if we go there?”
“Ning Fan has made military achievements and escaped from slavery. This matter must have been strictly investigated and verified. There can’t be any loopholes. He came here to garrison on orders.”
“The killing of those yamen runners was also justified. What did he do when he came to Ancheng?”
“Nothing, what should we say?”
Wei Ran paused here, and he suddenly laughed: “In my opinion, he doesn’t intend to tear his face with us, otherwise he wouldn’t be so friendly just now.”
“Zhou Hua, you will invite many wealthy people in the city. Tomorrow at noon, Lion Tower will host a banquet for the new head of Ning!”
“The property of the Ning family, that general, can’t be spit out, but we, as long as we eat and take, we will spit out everything we have eaten.”
“Don’t make trouble, and there will be no problem!”
Wei Ran made a choice.
Isn’t it okay to spit out what we have eaten from the Ning family?
It was not them who destroyed the Ning family. If you, Ning Fan, are really capable, go to Qingzhou and make a scene.
“Okay, I’ll go now!”
Zhou Hua stood up and ran out in a hurry.
In the evening, the thousand-man army was finally settled and set up camp a few miles outside the city. If anything happened in Ancheng, they could be guaranteed to arrive within a quarter of an hour.
Yu Ningfan lived in the city.
In the dim night, he walked to the Ning family compound. The gate was now closed. It had been empty since it was seized by the general under Yang Xiao.
For a moment, many thoughts came to Ning Fan’s mind.
He had not experienced the tragedy at the time, but now the memory emerged, still making his forehead burst with blue veins and his eyes burst.
“Dad, Mom, one day, I will take the head of that damn bastard and sacrifice it to the spirits of you two elders in heaven!”
Ning Fan murmured, knelt in front of the Ning family compound and kowtowed three times, then turned and left.
The eldest son of the Ning family, who was exterminated a year ago, came back, and got rid of his lowly status. He became the head of a thousand troops, with unparalleled popularity and great power!
This news was completely blown up in the whole Ancheng.
Those powerful people who had taken advantage of the Ning family were terrified, fearing that Ning Fan would take their lives.
Late at night, Wang’s mansion.
A dozen men in brocade clothes sat in the hall, each of them anxious like an ant on a hot pot.
“My Lord Wang, how can you still sit there? That Ning Fan… he, he, he, is a plague god to us!”
“Once he gets angry, all of us will die!”
“The master in Qingzhou will not punish Ning Fan because of us.”
One person stood up and said to the old man sitting in the main seat.
The old man sitting in the main seat just smiled lightly.
Wang Fu, the helmsman of the Wang family in Ancheng, is also the head of the powerful in Ancheng. County Magistrate Zhou Hua is his son-in-law. It can be said that in Ancheng, the Wang family has a lot of connections.
He played a role in destroying the Ning family’s catastrophe.
“What are you panicking about?”
“Why are you panicking?”
Wang Fu coughed and spoke in a deep voice.
“It’s really surprising that Ning Fan can come back, but don’t forget that it was the master of Qingzhou who destroyed his Ning family!”
“We are just a bunch of chores at most.”
“But even if we are chores, we are still the lackeys of the master.”
“You have to look at the owner before you beat the dog!”
“If he really dares to kill us, the master will definitely not let it go!”
Speaking of this, Wang Fu paused.
“Of course.”
“We should be on guard.”
“Tomorrow in the Lion Tower, everyone will bleed a little to let Ning Fan vent his anger.”
“If things really get out of control… remember!”
“All this is the order of County Magistrate Wei!”
Wang Fu’s eyes were erected, and he was filled with viciousness.
