Chapter 221 First Meeting
Of course he also knew that he was being used by Qin Zhuo today, but he was not angry.

It was His Majesty's fault in the first place, so it's no wonder Qin Zhuo fought back.

If it were him, he might not be able to show such a gentle attitude, and he would have to make trouble to heaven.

But this matter still made him feel a little uncomfortable. Everyone understands His Majesty's thoughts, but no matter how much you hate King Yu, you should never, never, or even take advantage of the common people.

He is not in the mood to continue the investigation now, so he left with Qin Zhuo directly.

Back at Prince Yu's mansion, Duke Zhen suddenly remembered one thing, that is, on the way here, the boy from the Meng family entrusted him with something. He was not feeling well yesterday, but he forgot about it.

He took out the letter and said to Qin Zhuo, "I have something to trouble King Yu."

"My lord, it's okay to say."

"When the old man set off from the capital, he was entrusted by someone and promised to help confirm the safety of several people, and send a letter by the way."

Qin Zhuo nodded lightly, "Leave this matter to Qingyu, the Duke can rest assured."

Duke Zhen of course trusted Qin Zhuo's character, so he immediately handed over the letter to Qingyu.

"Actually, King Yu should also know that family. It is the family of Ning Zhiyuan, the former imperial historian."

As soon as these words came out, Qin Zhuo paused while drinking tea.

Qing Yu's hand holding the letter also paused.

Qin Zhuo put down his teacup, and asked casually, "Oh? Lord Ning, of course I know him, but I don't know who the Duke is entrusted with? I didn't expect that there are still people in the capital thinking about Lord Ning."

Duke Zhen didn't care, and said indifferently: "You're not a boy from the Meng family. Didn't you have a marriage contract with the Ning family before? I didn't expect it to be kind and righteous. Even after the divorce, I still don't forget to care about the safety of the Ning family."

It turned out to be him, Meng Yunqi!
Qin Zhuo's eyes darkened.

Seeing that Qingyu was still standing here without moving, Lord Zhen immediately urged: "You should hurry up!"

Qing Yu subconsciously glanced at the master, seeing that the master was lowering his head, wondering what he was thinking, Duke Zhen was in a hurry again, so he had no choice but to bid farewell.

As for going to Ningjia Village?

That is impossible!

He didn't want to be like Qingfeng, who couldn't come back after being sent out for so long, and judging from his master's intentions, it was estimated that he was still far away from returning. When he thought of this, he couldn't help but shiver. He won't die like Qingfeng.

If he helped the master's rival in love to deliver a letter to Miss Ning, the end might be a thousand times more miserable than ten thousand times.

Qingyu pretended to go out of the mansion, but in fact she just went out for a stroll, and sneaked back again.

It's just that he was unlucky, he sneaked in from the backyard, but he happened to be face to face with Lord Zhen Guo who was practicing martial arts.

Qingyu: "..."

Duke Zhen: "..."

Just when Qingyu was racking her brains to find excuses for herself.

Just when Zhen Guozheng was about to ask Qingyu why he hadn't set off yet.

"Qingyu, I'm finally back, and I brought Miss Ning back. The master just smiled at me for the first time."

A quiet voice came from a distance.

Qingyu: "..."

What kind of shit luck did he have today?

He hurriedly cupped his hands to Duke Zhen and said, "Grandpa Huiguo, the subordinates saw Miss Ning coming, so they went back to the mansion first. Miss Ning is Lord Ning's daughter."

Duke Zhen did not expect such a coincidence, he was about to send someone to find Ning Zhiyuan's family, but Ning Zhiyuan's daughter came to the door by himself.

In that case, let him go and see him too.

When Qing Jing came over, he happened to see the back of Zhen Guogong leaving, and Qing Yu was wiping his sweat.

"What's wrong with you? Hot?"

Qing Yu was speechless, "This is cold sweat."

Qing Jing was dumbfounded, it's not cold today!

Qing Yu didn't pay attention to him anymore, because he rescued her in time, she didn't know him as well.

As soon as Lord Zhen entered the main hall, he saw Ning Chu sitting there drinking tea.

Ning Chu looked up as if aware of it.

It happened that Duke Zhen saw her face, and he was stunned for a moment.

Why does this little girl look so familiar?

When he realized that he, an old man, was staring at the little girl for a long time, Duke Zhen couldn't help but blush.

He laughed twice to ease his embarrassment.

"You are Ning Zhiyuan's daughter?"

Ning Chu knew that this person should be the Duke of Yipin Zhen who held 30 military power and made Emperor Qingyang fearful, so she quickly got up and saluted.

"I have seen Lord Zhen, it is the little girl Ning Chu."

Seeing her as a teenage girl, and seeing that she was neither humble nor overbearing, Duke Zhen couldn't help but admire her.

"You little girl is good, very good!"

Duke Zhen cupped his hands towards Qin Zhuo, and sat directly opposite Ning Chu, "How are your father and the others?"

"Thank you, Grandpa, for your concern. My father and the others are all safe and sound."

"That's good, the old man just happened to be entrusted by someone to help bring a letter to your father, and it happens to be handed over to you now."

Ning Chu was a little puzzled, who in the capital would deliver the letter to them?

When he saw the five characters written by Uncle Ning on it, Ning Chu immediately recognized that it was Meng Yunqi's handwriting.

What's the matter with this man?How could you remember to write a letter to her father?
Seeing Ning Chu "in a daze" at the letter, Qin Zhuo couldn't help but feel a twinge of pain in his heart, and instantly felt that the letter was particularly dazzling.

Although he was not prepared to withhold the letter privately from the very beginning, it was not his character, but seeing Ning Chu's attitude towards the letter at this time, still gave him the urge to snatch the letter and tear it up .

Fortunately, the next moment, Ning Chu directly put the letter on the table beside him, and thanked Zhen Guogong.

Duke Zhen waved his hand and looked at Ning Chu lovingly, "It's nothing more than a little effort."

For some reason, he always felt very kind when looking at Ning Chu.

It may be that he has no children, so he sees Ning Chu as a junior, but this is the first time he has met such a junior.

Ning Chu still has a good impression of the straightforward generals, just like the soldiers in his previous life.

They are always at the forefront of the people in the most dangerous time.

To borrow the most popular sentence on the Internet in my previous life, you thought the years were quiet, but someone was carrying the weight for you to move forward!

And this sentence also applies to ancient times, that is, now, they defend their homes and the country, guarding the border, isn't it also for the common people?
And I don't know if it's her illusion, she always feels that Zhen Guogong's looks are a bit familiar, who does he look like?
This thought only flashed through Ning Chu's mind, and she didn't delve into it.

Pulling out his thoughts, he concentrated on chatting with Zhen Guogong.

This chat shocked Lord Zhen to the core. Unexpectedly, this little girl had such unique insights into certain matters that even he felt a little ashamed of himself.

He couldn't help feeling that Ning Zhiyuan really taught a good daughter!
Qin Zhuo, who was at the side, saw that Duke Zhen praised Ning Chu again and again, so he couldn't help straightening his back, and his face was full of pride. His Chu Chu was naturally the best and most powerful in the world!
