Peerless Headmaster

Chapter 746 Questioning
"Under Ningheng, I have met Lord Hou!"

A sonorous and forceful sentence, neither servile nor arrogant, made it impossible to find any faults at all.

Marquis Wu Wen looked at Ning Heng with interest, with a half-smile on his face, as if he was very interested in Ning Heng.

Ning Heng also looked at Wu Wenhou, his eyes did not flicker at all, even if Ning Heng had ghosts in his heart, he was extremely calm at the moment.

Marquis Wu Wen didn't speak, and Ning Heng didn't speak either. The two just stared at each other, as if they wanted to see something in each other's eyes.

Lian Cangqiong and Duguxuan both glanced at Ning Heng, feeling a little puzzled.

The four courtyard masters were also silent, but they thought more. After all, they were clear about the grievances between Marquis Wuwen and King Beilin, and Ning Heng was the adopted son of King Beilin. Facing Marquis Wu Wen, it was hard to imagine what kind of conflict would erupt between them.

And up to now, the four masters still don't know the purpose of Marquis Wu Wen's visit, let alone whether Marquis Wu Wen came here to target Ning Heng.

If it is really aimed at Ning Heng, then you need to be on guard and deal with it. No matter what kind of conflicts there are between King Beilin and Marquis Wu Wen, Ning Heng is a student of the Imperial Academy, and he is in the Academy at this moment. The Holy Court has the responsibility and obligation to protect Ning Heng.

"Benhou heard that you are Lian Qingyun's adopted son?" Marquis Wu Wen suddenly said.

Ning Heng said: "The king of Beilin is indeed my adoptive father."

Marquis Wu Wen showed a faint smile: "This Marquis has heard that you have a very bad relationship with the late son Lian Qiyan, and you were even assassinated by him a while ago and were seriously injured? Is there such a thing?"

Ning Heng frowned slightly: "It is true."

Wu Wenhou hummed: "Lian Qiyan plotted against you, do you have resentment in your heart?"

Ning Heng was tired of asking, what exactly did this guy want to ask?Besides, what does it have to do with you Wu Wenhou if I practice Qiyan ruthlessly?
The four masters were also full of doubts, thinking that there seemed to be something wrong with the things Wu Wenhou asked.

"My adoptive father treated me with such kindness as a mountain, and I have no resentment in my heart." Ning Heng said.

After a pause, Ning Heng didn't wait for Marquis Wu Wen to speak again, and said directly: "The things that Lord Hou asked about seem to have nothing to do with Lord Hou."

As soon as this remark came out, the masters of the four courtyards secretly thought that something was wrong, Ning Heng's words were tinged with thorns, how could a person like Marquis Wu Wen not be angry when he heard it?
But unexpectedly, Marquis Wu Wen just frowned slightly, without any sign of anger.

"Hehe, this Marquis just cares too much about the old friend of the King of the North. You are right, you are indeed asking too much." Marquis Wu Wen said with a light smile.

Seeing this, Yue Han quickly said softly: "Master Hou, the three of them have just experienced the competition before, and they are all very tired. Can you let the three of them go down to rest first?"

Marquis Wu Wen didn't answer, but continued to say to Ning Heng: "This Marquis wants to know, have you ever left during the few months you were recuperating in the palace in the north?"

This question was very abrupt, and everyone present except Ning Heng was taken aback, completely unable to understand why Marquis Wu Wen would ask such a question.

But Ning Heng immediately understood what Marquis Wu Wen meant, and he already doubted himself.

"He must suspect that Guo Fengchuan and I stole the formula of eternity, so he asked me that." Ning Heng said secretly in his heart.

Although he understood what Marquis Wu Wen meant, it was naturally impossible for Ning Heng to say anything more, and immediately replied: "After I was injured, I have been recuperating in the palace and never left. Why did Lord Hou ask such a question?"

Marquis Wu Wen sneered in his heart, why do I ask you this, are you not clear in your heart?

In fact, Marquis Wu Wen really suspected that Ning Heng had snatched the animal bone, but he couldn't really be sure.

Before Wu Wenhou wanted to use some means to clarify the matter, but was hindered by the palace, so Wu Wenhou had to suppress the matter.

Even if Marquis Wuwen suffered a dark loss, he could only swallow it in his stomach.

But Marquis Wu Wen was not reconciled, after all, he had lost many of his confidantes, and even lost the formula of eternity, how could he swallow this breath?
This time, he personally came to the Royal Academy, just to find out about this matter, and by the way, he also wanted to make Ning Heng pay some price.

Of course, Marquis Wu Wen knew very well that he couldn't retaliate too harshly against Ning Heng. Whether it was the imperial court or the pressure in the palace, he needed to be wary of it.

But Marquis Wu Wen also has his own way, which can not only make the imperial court have nothing to say, but also make the person in the palace have no response.

"This Marquis wants to talk to Ning Heng alone, can the others leave first?" Marquis Wu Wen said very calmly.

"This…"

The four masters all showed embarrassment, let Ning Heng stay alone to face Marquis Wu Wen?Who knows what will happen?
"Master Hou, is there something that can't be said right now?" Murong Xi said in a deep voice.

Marquis Wu Wen chuckled, but the smile was slightly cold.

"Benhou doesn't want other people present, some things can only be discussed with him alone."

"Master Hou, I'm afraid this is not very good." Yue Han said the same.

Marquis Wu Wen didn't have any expression on his face: "Being in this imperial court, are you worried about this marquis doing something out of the ordinary? Is it because you don't trust me, or is it because you don't have self-confidence in the imperial court? Even one Even the students in the hospital can't take shelter."

Having said all this, what else can the four masters say, they can only nod their heads in agreement.

At that moment, the four of them left the hall with Lian Cangqiong and Duguxuan, but Murong Xi was still a little worried. He patted Ning Heng on the shoulder, and secretly sent a voice transmission to indicate that if something happened to Ning Heng, he would call for help immediately, and they would arrive immediately.

Ning Heng felt a little warm in his heart, at least these abbots are still very responsible for the students of the Holy Academy.

After everyone else left, only Wu Wenhou and Ning Heng were left in the hall.

Ning Heng didn't show the slightest fear or nervousness, and seemed very calm.

Marquis Wu Wen's expression became very cold, his eyes stared at Ning Heng like a falcon.

"You took what belongs to the Marquis, right?" Marquis Wu Wen said straight to the point.

Ning Heng's expression remained unchanged, and he said indifferently: "What is Hou Ye talking about? I don't quite understand. Why did I take away your things?"

Marquis Wu Wen sneered: "There's no need to pretend anymore, this Marquis already knows it's you."

Ning Heng still shook his head: "I don't understand what Master Hou said at all."

Seeing that Ning Heng refused to admit it so stubbornly, Marquis Wu Wen was not surprised. He would certainly not admit this kind of thing, even if there is no one else here.
