Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

Chapter 449: Ning Xinzhe's Fantastic Operation

Ning Zhou's face turned pale and blue, and she was struggling internally. "I... was not wrong."

She couldn't kneel down.

Lian'er's face twitched slightly, idiot!

She closed her eyes, suppressed her complicated emotions, and said softly, "You are wrong. You shouldn't have listened to the slander and come to confront me without caring about anything. You were hot-headed, but I didn't mean any harm. Apologize quickly."

She winked at Ning Zhoushi, who gritted her teeth and knelt down, "Your Majesty, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please forgive me."

She shouted so loudly that it shook the heavens, wishing that everyone in the world would know that she, an elder, was kneeling before the empress!

Ning Xinzhe sneered, "Seventh Aunt, you are actually so loyal to a maid and follow her arrangements in everything."

Ning Zhou looked smug, "You got it wrong. She is loyal to me. Everything she does is for my own good."

Ning Xinzhe: …

"Aunt Qi, you are planning to give up your position to Miss Lian'er and serve her like the mistress of the seventh room. You are really broad-minded."

Ning Zhou's face darkened. What nonsense was he talking about?

Lian Er was horrified, "No, no, Master, you misunderstood..."

Ning Xinzhe interrupted, "Miss Lian'er, you are as beautiful as a flower, younger and prettier than Aunt Seven, smarter and more decent than Aunt Seven, and more suitable to be the mistress. From now on, I will call you Aunt Seven."

Every word is so heartbreaking and deadly! Which woman wouldn't go crazy after hearing such words?

Ning Zhou felt very upset and glared at Lian'er fiercely. All the affection between master and servant disappeared.

Lian'er secretly groaned, as expected, none of the Ning family's descendants were easy to deal with.

She showed her weakness in a pitiful manner, "Madam, I have no second thoughts and only recognize you as my master. I am yours in life and your ghost in death."

Ning Zhou's eyes flickered slightly, and she suppressed her anger, "Xinzhe, stop trying to sow discord. I won't be fooled. Lian'er is a good person, and I believe in her."

Ning Xinzhe smiled slightly, "Since you two are so affectionate as master and servant, I will ask for an imperial decree to make Miss Lian'er your seventh uncle's second wife, and you two will never be separated."

He threw down these words and turned away. Ning Zhou was completely defeated. "Stop, Ning Xinzhe, don't mess around."

She is easily influenced and cannot stand provocation.

Ning Xinzhe stopped, turned around and smiled, "I think, Aunt Qi, you would like to have one more person to serve Uncle Qi. Uncle Qi has only one son, which is too few. As the saying goes, more sons, more blessings. You can't give birth to a child by yourself, so let Aunt Qi help you share the burden. You should thank Miss Lian'er, understand? She helped you share the pain of childbirth."

Ning Zhou was so angry that her mouth twisted and her whole body trembled. Who would be willing to separate her husband? How could she tolerate those illegitimate sons and daughters?

She managed to say, "The Emperor won't take care of such things."

Ning Xinzhe deliberately disgusted her, "I'll go and ask her to reward Uncle Qi with a concubine for his military exploits."

"Aunt Xiaoqi, I congratulate you in advance. You should give birth to more children for the Seventh House. It would be best if you had ten or eight children..."

Ning Zhou couldn't stand it anymore and screamed hysterically, "Ning Xinzhe, if you dare to do this, I won't let you go."

Ning Xinzhe looked puzzled, "Aunt Qi, I'm doing this for your own good. Are you happy that you and Miss Lian'er can be together forever?"

She just had nothing to do.

The look in Ning Zhou's eyes when she looked at Lian'er was as if it was filled with poison and hatred, with no trace of the closeness and protection she had just shown.

Lian'er's thoughts were in a mess and her head was in a mess.

She gritted her teeth, pulled out the golden hairpin and pointed it at her neck, "I am willing to die to prove my will, please believe me, Master."

Ning Xinzhe chuckled, "Seventh Aunt, please try to persuade her. If she dies here, your reputation will be ruined. You will be accused of being jealous and intolerant. People who don't know the truth will even suspect that you committed murder on purpose, and you will lose your position as mistress."

When Ning Zhou heard this, her face became even uglier, "Stop pretending. Go back and die if you want to."

Lian'er was so angry that she almost vomited blood. What an idiot! She actually believed Ning Xinzhe's provocation.

The sword that stabs others suddenly stabs yourself. Only you know how it feels.

Ning Zhou's heart was beating wildly, she was at a loss, "Xinzhe, I want to see the emperor, take me in."

How is this possible? Ning Xinzhe flatly refused, "The emperor said that you are not allowed to step into the palace in your lifetime. I dare not disobey the emperor's order."

Ning Zhou was very upset. "I am your seventh aunt, your elder. How dare you reject me? You are being disobedient."

Ning Xinzhe said expressionlessly, "I am the Duke of Wei. You don't have an imperial decree and are just a commoner. According to the law of the country, you must kneel down and salute me."

"According to family rules, I am the eldest grandson of the Ning family and the future head of the Ning family. When I see a Ning family member making a mistake, I have the right to point it out. Aunt Qi, I am doing this for your own good. If you don't want to follow in Duan Xinyu's footsteps, then stay quietly in Qingluo Villa and wait for Uncle Qi to come back."

Ning Zhou was impatient and raised her head and said loudly, "Ning Zhiwei dares to kill me?"

A figure popped out from nowhere, "Pah."

After two slaps, Ning Zhou's face was swollen and her mouth was full of blood.

"Calling His Majesty by his name is a sign of great respect. Take him down and punish him with ten strokes of the cane."

Ning Zhou spat out a mouthful of blood, along with a tooth.

She was panicked and scared, so she grabbed the child and shouted, "Don't come over here, or I will die with the child."

The child was woken up and started crying loudly.

A cold light flashed in Ning Xinzhe's eyes. It was like this every time, using the child as a threat.

The Ning family is very cautious, but the people in the palace are not.

The guards looked at Ning Xinzhe, "Duke Weiguo, what should we do?"

Ning Xinzhe turned around and murmured to himself, "It's pitiful to have a mother like this. However, I think this is her only trump card, and she would never dare to destroy it even if she is beaten to death."

The guard's eyes flashed, and he immediately stepped forward and forcibly took the child away.

Then, he pressed Ning Zhou to the ground. It all happened so fast that Ning Zhou couldn't believe it. "How dare you? Let me go, Xinzhe, save me quickly."

Ning Xinzhe looked at her with pity, "The country has its own laws, and the family has its own rules. The country comes first, and the family comes second."

Ning Zhou was furious, "Ning Xinzhe, you did this on purpose. You want the Seventh Young Master's family to be destroyed, and you have no intention of competing with you for the position of Patriarch."

Ning Xinzhe sighed softly, "Why bother arguing? Uncle Seven has already said that when I come of age, he will pass the position of head of the family to me."

The position of the head of the family has always been in the hands of the eldest son of the family. Almost all of them died in battle, so the position could only be passed on to Ning Zhiwei, and then Ning Zhiwei passed it on to Ning Qishao.

Now, returning to the eldest branch of the family is legitimate and justifiable.

Ning Zhou's face changed drastically, "This is impossible."

Ning Xinzhe asked curiously, "Didn't Uncle Qi tell you? That's right, there's no need to discuss this matter with you, nor do I need to inform you."

Ning Zhou's heart felt like it was being grabbed by an unknown hand, and she felt extremely uncomfortable. "Do you hate me so much?"

Ning Xinzhe leaned over and lowered his voice, "Don't you know what's going on? You're hated by everyone, even dogs hate you. It's annoying to even look at you for a second."

Ning Zhou's heart surged with anger, "You...ah."

When she was hit with a stick, she let out a shrill scream.

"I was wrong. I apologize to the emperor. Xinzhe, please help me plead for mercy."

Ning Zhou gritted her teeth and said, "If the Seventh Young Master knew that I died at the hands of the Emperor, what would he think? He would hate the Emperor."

Ning Xinzhe saw that she refused to repent and gave up completely. There was no way to save her. "Then just hate her. You and I both know who will suffer."

Just a few words dashed all of Ning Zhou's expectations.

Anyway, it’s definitely not the emperor who will suffer the loss.

After ten strokes of the board, Ning Zhou was in so much pain that she almost died.

At this moment, a clear voice suddenly rang out.

"The imperial edict has arrived, Ning Zhou will accept it!"

Not too early, not too late, the timing is just right.
