Chapter 234 This kid, it’s not in vain that I love him!
"Vanguard General?"
Just when the courtyard was tense, Baili Moqing's calm voice sounded, calming all the nervous hearts.
"Is there no one left in the army supporting the north?"
When Shu He heard this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
This man has a very poisonous tongue.
Doesn't this indirectly confirm what she said? If the army to aid the north was not completely empty, how could a random person be appointed as the general of the vanguard army?
Nanqi's face was also full of contempt, and he echoed, "Your Highness, there may be many people in the army, but they are not as good as those of high status."
What this means is that he became a general by relying on his father's status.
"Nanqi, how dare you mock me!" Nangong Ling's face was grim, and the sword in his hand turned and flew over again.
"Nangong Ling! Stop!"
A deep voice echoed over the Biluo Courtyard, carrying with it an extremely penetrating aura.
Everyone looked up, but didn't see anyone.
When Nangong Ling heard the voice, the sword in his hand paused and his body stopped suddenly.
He looked up, a look of uneasiness on his face.
A moment later, a black figure flew over from above, came to the front of the yard, and kicked the sword in Nangong Ling's hand away.
There was a hint of indifference in his bright and sharp eyes.
"Big, big brother..."
Nangong Ze, the eldest son of Nangong Zhen, is the vanguard general of the National Defense Army and the son that Nangong Zhen values the most.
He looked away indifferently, then bowed respectfully to Baili Moqing, "Nangong Ze greets His Majesty!"
Baili Moqing was obviously unhappy, and even his voice became a little colder.
"The Nangong family is so imposing! One of them drew a sword in front of me, and the other flew in from above my head. It seems that without status, I really can't be seen by your Nangong family."
Nangong Ze's expression changed slightly after hearing this, and he immediately knelt down. "Your Highness, please forgive me. I was just worried that my ignorant brother might offend you, so I was anxious..."
"Brother! Why are you being so respectful to him? He's no longer the King of Dongli! He's just an exiled criminal!"
Nangong Ling spoke, his mouth full of recklessness.
"Shut up!" Nangong Ze glared at him, "Kneel down! Apologize to the prince!"
Nangong Ling's brows showed a stubborn look, "Why? He is no longer the King of Dongli! If I kneel down to him again and call him Prince, wouldn't that be disobeying the order?"
Baili Moqing looked at him with a faint smile on his lips.
Nangong Ze stood up with a gloomy face and kicked Nangong Ling directly on the back of the knee. The huge impact force made Nangong Ling fall to the ground.
He stared at his elder brother with humiliation and indignation on his face, not understanding why he treated him like this for an exile?
Could it be that he still thought that Baili Moqing could restore his title?
He wanted to stand up, but Nangong Ze noticed his intention and slapped him on the shoulder, pressing him down.
Shu He listened to the sound of the knee hitting the ground and wondered if the knee was about to break.
Nangong Ze was quite harsh and showed no mercy to his own brother!
"Nangong Ling, do you want to kill the entire Nangong family?"
A cold voice sounded in Nangong Ling's ears, instantly calming his heart that still wanted to resist.
What does Big Brother mean by this? Why is he going to kill the entire Nangong family?
Seeing this, Nangong Xiyun immediately stepped forward and took Nangong Ze's arm, trying to make him let go. But no matter how she moved her mouth, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't make any sound.
These days, she is still not used to the fact that she cannot speak.
She finally got this opportunity today and wanted to ask her second brother who had just been promoted to general to help her seek justice, but she didn't expect that she would be discovered by her eldest brother!
Nangong Ze stared at Nangong Xiyun with a bad look and shook her hand away. His strength was so great that Nangong Xiyun fell backward uncontrollably.
Nangong Xin saw this and quickly stepped forward to support her.
Nangong Ze stared at her, his heart filled with uncontrollable anger, "Have you ignored everything Dad said?!"
How dare you bring the second and third brothers to cause trouble for King Dongli! Are you trying to kill yourself?
Nangong Xiyun looked timid. This was the first time she heard her elder brother speak to her so harshly.
Her eyes were wet with tears, filled with grievance and fear. She gestured with her hands, opened her mouth, and screamed hysterically, "I just want justice. Am I wrong?"
Although she didn't make any sound, Nangong Ze understood what she meant from her lip shape and excited expression.
Nangong Xiyun has always been the most beloved little sister in the family, and she grew up in the palm of her family's hand. Seeing her like this, even the calm Nangong Ze couldn't help but feel sympathy.
He knelt down in front of Baili Moqing, hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke.
"Your Highness, although Xiaoyun was wrong, she has been voiceless for so many days, which can be considered as punishment. Your Highness, can you spare her for the sake of the Nangong family's many years of guarding the border troops?"
Baili Moqing didn't say anything.
Nan Qi stepped forward and snorted coldly, "Nangongze, General Nangong should have received the prince's letter, right? You saw it too, right?"
Nangong Ze's expression was slightly tense, and a hint of shame flashed in his beautiful eyes.
"Don't you understand how big a mistake Nangong Xiyun made? How dare you ask for forgiveness, Your Highness? Let her go?"
Nangong Ze knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Your Highness, I am only pleading for my younger sister as a brother. She is my younger sister after all, and I cannot watch her live in a world without a voice forever."
Nangong Ze's words caused the crowd in the courtyard to murmur.
"Guarding the border troops? Nangong family?"
"Could it be the son or daughter of the great general Nangong Zhen's family?"
"I heard that the emperor has transferred the national defense army from the northwest to aid the north, and the general leading it seems to be General Nangong."
During the discussion, the people had already guessed the identities of Nangong Ze and others.
Nangong Zhen's reputation was no less than Baili Moqing's. In Tianqi, he was also a great general who was highly respected by the people.
"What you mean is that the young lady of the Nangong family has committed some mistake, so the prince punished her by making her unable to speak?"
"If I can't speak, won't I become mute? Isn't this punishment too severe?"
Listening to the people's discussions, the grievance on Nangong Xiyun's face became even more intense, and her beautiful face with tears in her eyes made the crowd feel sorry for her.
"It would be too tragic for such a beautiful woman to become mute..."
Nangong Xiyun knelt down beside Nangong Ze and kowtowed to Baili Moqing, as if admitting her mistake and begging for mercy.
Shu He's face turned ugly. Didn't the actions of the Nangong brothers and sisters push Baili Moqing to the forefront?
Her face was cold as she asked, "General, are you pleading as a brother, or are you pleading based on the military merits of the entire Nangong family's border defense forces?"
The woman's cold voice made Nangong Ze feel a little cold in his heart. He turned around and looked at her with a serious look in his eyes.
He didn't know how to respond to this for a moment.
If he was his brother, he would have just used the Nangong family's military achievements as a plea. But now, if he clearly admitted that he was pleading for mercy based on the Nangong family's military achievements, then he would be suspected of using military achievements to blackmail King Dongli.
He couldn't answer any of these questions...
Nangong Ling didn't understand the meaning of these words. She glared at her and shouted, "What difference does this make? You bitch, you dare to poison my sister, I..."
"Snapped!"
A crisp slap sounded in Nangong Ze's ears. His eyes were burning with anger as he stared at Nanqi.
Nangong Ling was even more stunned. There was confusion in her eyes at first, and then she was filled with humiliation.
"Nanqi, you dare to hit me!!"
Nan Qi met his gaze and snorted coldly, "Doctor He is the prince's savior! Even the prince has to be polite to her, and you dare to insult her with such foul language?! Is your Nangong family's upbringing really so deplorable and unpresentable?"
Shu He's eyes were filled with emotion and joy, and he gave Nanqi a thumbs up.
This kid, it’s not in vain that I love him!
