Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

Chapter 202 If you don't listen, you'll be beaten

At Ping'an Inn, six county magistrates gathered together to discuss matters, determined to curb Ning Zhiwei's prestige.

A woman still wants to rule the country? All the men in the world are not dead yet, when will it be her turn?

This has touched their bottom line and cannot be tolerated.

The Luocheng County Magistrate suddenly asked, "Have you submitted the invitation?"

Everyone shook their heads, "Not yet, let's keep her in the sun for a few more days."

It was also a warning to show that they were not someone who could be recruited by just anyone.

The magistrate of Gancheng County had a mean look on his face, his eyes rolling around, "I heard that she has sent invitations to the wealthy merchants and noble families in the seven cities. I wonder how many people will attend."

This hand is too long. He really thinks of himself as the master of the seven cities.

The Wucheng County Magistrate laughed and said, "I have already informed the people in my jurisdiction not to come. Don't give her this face."

The Magistrate of Licheng County was full of disdain. "I also greeted her. Haha, she even took office at a grand ceremony. Without the imperial documents, she is nothing. How dare she make such a fuss?"

He said proudly, "I have submitted a petition to the court. I believe the court will punish her soon. Why should we be afraid of her?"

"Anyway, I won't tolerate this humiliation. A mere woman is so arrogant. The Ning family is really in trouble."

The magistrate of Gancheng County glanced at his companions with a sinister look in his eyes. "Tell me, is there any way to split up the 100,000 Ning family troops and devour them separately?"

He had long been eyeing military power and was ambitious and willing to fight for it.

Everyone's eyes lit up, this is great.

Being at the border, they know the importance of military power better than anyone else.

If they had an army at hand, would they still be driven to flee? Definitely not! They could do whatever they wanted.

They dream of military power! As a man, they all want to sleep on the lap of a beautiful woman while drunk and hold the power of the world when awake.

The Ning family army is now leaderless. The only adult male, Ding Ning Qi Shao, was seriously injured and can no longer lead the troops. Although Ning Zhiwei is a county lord appointed by the court, she is just a woman.

When will it be a woman's turn to lead troops into war?

Ning Ran is not a real member of the Ning family. He is just a servant and cannot win the support of others at all.

This is the best time to divide up the Ning family army.

The Luocheng County Magistrate rolled his eyes and said, "I have an idea."

Everyone immediately became excited and said, "Hurry up and tell me."

Behind the Ning Mansion is the general's office, where the commander-in-chief of the Ning family army works. It is also the power center of the entire Yumen Pass, and orders are issued from here.

The general's office is a quadrangle with five entrances and a small door between it and the Ning Mansion for easy access, but the management is very strict. The key is only in the hands of the Ning family's commander-in-chief, and it is only opened when going to or from the office.

When Ning Zhiwei was a child, he loved to hide behind the small door to play. When he was a little older, he would climb over the wall to play. The guards turned a blind eye to this.

Now, she sat in the position where her grandfather once sat and felt the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

There were endless documents to deal with and too much to do. Fortunately, Ning Si and Ning Liu helped her, and the wife of the Seventh Young Master was also tricked into coming to do the work.

The Seventh Young Master's wife was a little reserved at first, but she got used to it after a few days. She set out every day with great enthusiasm, and fell asleep at night with her tired body, no longer having the energy to make a noise.

Ning Zhiwei discovered that she was somewhat capable and good at accounting, so he simply threw all the account books to her, under the pretext that "the more capable you are, the more work you will do". "I'm keeping an eye on you."

Ning Zhiwei was very good at making big promises and praising people, which made the Seventh Young Master's wife so excited that she wished she could work for another hundred years.

There is no waste material in this world, it just depends on how you use it.

Dongsheng walked in and said, "Master, there is no news from Ping'an Inn, and no invitation has been delivered."

Ning Zhiwei sneered, "It seems that he is a traitor."

The Ning family has ruled the northwest for generations, holding both military and political power. However, in order to prevent the Ning family from becoming increasingly powerful, the imperial court imposed restrictions, and all officials were appointed and dismissed by the imperial court.

The garrisons in each city are the Ning family’s troops, but the officials are from the imperial court, so this can be considered a check and balance between the two.

Now, she is not happy anymore and wants to take control of the military and political power of these seven cities in her own hands.

As for the other cities, leave them to Rong Jing, as he is the governor of Gansu and Shaanxi.

It will probably take some time over in Mingzhou, so let's take it step by step.

Ning Zhiwei hesitated for a moment, "Go call them over, and beat them up if they don't obey."

"Yes."

Dongsheng personally led his men to rush to Ping'an Inn and kicked the door open. The county magistrates were shocked. "What are you doing?"

They did bring some servants and guards with them when they went out, but they were nothing compared to the elite soldiers and generals.

Dongsheng looked at them for a few times. They all had ruddy faces and big ears. "I am following the commander's orders to ask you all to go to the general's office."

"What coach?"

Dongsheng's eyes turned cold. Why pretend to be confused? "The commander of the Ning family army."

The Luocheng County Magistrate smiled widely, "What a coincidence! We had an appointment to burn incense and worship Buddha today. Let's do it tomorrow."

Dongsheng smiled coldly, "Say it again."

The Luocheng County Magistrate looked apologetic. "We made an appointment in advance, so it's hard to change it. We should not break our promises. I can only ask Miss Ning to be more tolerant..."

Dongsheng said nothing and whipped the magistrate of Luocheng County with a whip. He let out a shrill scream, "Ah."

Dongsheng was very impatient. He actually asked his master to be more tolerant. He was really shameless. "Don't be shameless. Take them all away."

Are you tired of living after your bottom line is violated again and again?

The soldiers rushed forward and dragged out several county magistrates with extremely brutal actions.

The county magistrates were stunned. They were the masters of the county and they acted very arrogantly in the county, and no one dared to stop them.

"You barbarians, let us go, quickly."

"Did Ning Zhiwei ask you to humiliate the court official like this? How dare she, a person of no rank or rank, treat the court official like this? Isn't she afraid of being punished by the court?"

Dongsheng wondered if these people were out of their minds. They couldn't see clearly what was going on, and couldn't see the current situation clearly.

Yes, these people did not get the positions by passing the exams, but by buying them. They are more greedy and have more ambitions.

No serious scholar would want to be an official in a desolate place like the northwest, which gives these villains an opportunity.

"She is a first-rank county lady."

The Magistrate of Licheng County was stunned for a moment. "That can't be unreasonable. What on earth does a woman like her want to do..."

Another whip came over him, causing his head to bleed. He screamed, "Ahhh, someone is killing someone, help me."

This commotion attracted the attention of countless people, but seeing the group of people dressed in the uniforms of the Ning family army, no one ran over to watch the fun, and they just watched from afar.

By chance, a convoy of vehicles entered the city. They heard the noise and looked over. “What’s going on?”

The man was dressed elegantly, with his hair tied up with a jade crown and gently waving a feather fan, looking like a romantic nobleman.

The magistrate of Luocheng County recognized him at a glance. He was a famous nobleman in the capital. His eyes lit up and said, "Help, help us! Ning Zhiwei sent people to beat up the imperial officials in the street."
