Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 741 Looking for Weaknesses

His Highness King Ning was nestled on the chaise longue by the window, lazily basking in the sun, looking comfortable like a well-fed cat.

Ying Shisan, who came to accompany him under Shen Cha's order, saw this picture as soon as he entered the door, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Here we come!" His Royal Highness Ning Wang lifted his eyelids and took a look, pointing to the soft chair beside him, "Sit down!"

"Thank you, Lord!"

Ying Thirteen didn't come empty-handed, but also brought a lot of delicious food from the Duke's Mansion, all prepared by Jin Miaomiao, all of which can be eaten by His Royal Highness King Ning.He took out the food from the food box one by one, and placed them on the small table in front of His Royal Highness King Ning.

"What is this?" His Highness Prince Ning glanced curiously, "For me?"

"Sister Miao Miao personally made them, which the prince likes and can eat." Ying Shisan picked out a plate of small walnut cakes and placed them in front of His Royal Highness Ning, "This is what the boss ordered. I don't know about today's birthday banquet When will it be, I am worried that the prince will have nothing to eat."

"No wonder the elder brother and the Duke said that Xiaocha is a worry-loving person who cares about everything and everyone." After hearing Ying Shisan's words, His Royal Highness Ning Wang couldn't laugh or cry, "How can I not take care of myself? Will it make Xiaocha worry that I will be hungry all day?"

"Hmm..." Ying Shisan thought for a while, "In the words of the boss, the prince is the kind of person who won't remember to eat when no one is watching." He raised his eyebrows at King Ning, " Are you right?"

"This..." His Royal Highness Ning rubbed his nose in embarrassment, "Well, she is really right. It's just that you come to accompany me to pass the boring time, and you can't go to the birthday banquet. How embarrassing!"

"There is nothing to be embarrassed about, this is the duty of the subordinates. Moreover, the Duke and the boss are accompanied by Mei Lin and Mei Zhu, and we are not needed for the time being." Ying Shisan yawned and gave himself and His Royal Highness Ning a favor. Poured a cup of tea, "My lord, don't you think it's a pity that you can't go to the birthday banquet?"

"Regret? How could it be regrettable? Anyway, I went to the palace yesterday to see the Empress Dowager, and I have already said what I should say." Taking the teacup handed over by Ying Shisan, he took a shallow sip, His Highness King Ning He chuckled lightly and said, "As for the officials, it's better not to see them."

"My lord...don't like them?"

"It's just troublesome." His Royal Highness Ning Wang picked up a small walnut cake and put it in his mouth, took a bite, "Mm... so delicious!"

"Sister Miaomiao's cooking is very good, but she doesn't cook it often. When I was in Guancheng, Jiaping, she would cook by herself unless the boss wanted to eat or was not feeling well. Only at this time can we chat Take a bite."

"Don't you even give me face?" Seeing Ying Shisan shaking his head, His Royal Highness Ning Wang sighed, "Sure enough, the feelings between girls are beyond our comprehension. It is enviable to accept such a good apprentice."

"My subordinates remember that the master is a very modest person, and he speaks unhurriedly, giving people a feeling of spring breeze." Ying Shisan blinked and recalled Master Huilan in his memory, "If the subordinate Let me tell you, he should be a gentle gentleman."

"That's because he's old, and he's your elder, so naturally he should hold it up a bit. He's crazy and frightening when he's with our friends of the same age." His Royal Highness King Ning snorted twice, and then Picking up a piece of white, soft pastry, put it under his nose and smelled it, there was a faint sweet smell, he took a bite, and immediately lingered in his mouth. "Is this made of rice?"

"Well, glutinous rice!" Ying Shisan nodded, "This kind of snack is the Hou Ye's favorite, because the border is very cold, and this kind of snack is easier to store. Before each expedition, Hou Ye asks sister Miao Miao to make it for him Take some as dry food."

"I didn't expect that the kid from the Xue family likes to eat sweets like me." His Highness Ning Wang ate two pieces of planned glutinous rice cakes, drank the remaining tea in the tea cup, and handed the tea cup to Ying Shi Three, "Is there still no progress in the past two days?"

"My lord, what can you do to get Yu Wu to speak? We are really having a headache right now, we have tried everything we can, but he just refuses to speak."

"Look for a weakness." His Royal Highness Ning returned to the chaise longue, and pulled up the blanket that had slumped down, "You have no way to make him speak now, you can only show that the weakness you thought was not his real weakness. "

"This..." Ying Shisan leaned forward, "What does this mean? My lord, whether it is ordinary people or high-ranking officials, the weaknesses are actually the same, nothing more than wealth, power, and affection. For For Yu Wu, there are no financial and power troubles, the main thing is love. We heard the conversation between Yu Wu and Yu Da in the Tantai Family Temple, and he felt that it was very unreasonable for Yu Da and his mother not to intercede for Yu Qi , everyone is a family, so we can't be so heartless. But..."

"You took advantage of this and didn't get the expected effect, did you?"

"That's what happened." Ying Shisan was a little frustrated, "He even scolded Yu Da and Yu Shan who came to see him and persuaded him, and refused to see Yu Qi who was seriously ill. Moreover, for death, the performance Very fearless, not scared at all."

"Family, friends, and even his own life can't threaten him. What does this mean?" His Highness King Ning curled himself up, half-closed his eyes, "He knows very well that you want to get information from him , Therefore, it is impossible to kill him, and it is impossible to touch his brother, so he has nothing to fear. This kind of weak threat is useless to this kind of person. Also, why are you so sure of him? What if there is no need for wealth and power?"

"The needs for wealth and power are also very limited. After all, he is a domestic servant, so no matter how ambitious he is, his needs are limited, right?"

"Limited is limited, but even as a domestic servant, there are many people on his head. His mother, his eldest brother, his three and other brothers may threaten his current position. Don't forget , Yu Wu is a person who can freely enter and leave the temporary residence of the Tantai family. Maybe he can't enter the real base camp, but compared to other members of his family, he still has a lot of weight in the heart of Patriarch Tantai."

"What does the lord mean, someone might threaten his current position?" Ying Shisan thought for a while seriously, "You are right, Mr. Yu sacrificed his life for the savior, and with this, the Yu family was promoted to Tantai The first servant of the family is someone who is valued by Patriarch Tantai. And Yu Wu probably thinks that he is the most important, and he is afraid that others will take his position away."

"And his biggest threat is..."

"Yu Da and Yu Shan." Ying Shisan suddenly realized, "But, it doesn't make sense, they are arrested now, it's actually the same with Patriarch Tantai whether they rebel or not."

"No, a traitor, one would rather die than submit." His Royal Highness Ning raised his eyebrows, with an evil smile on his face, "Once the news reaches Tantai's house, what do you think will happen to Yu Da and Yu Wu's family members left there?" What about the treatment? How would they differ?"
