Chapter 445 High opinion (one more)
Ning Ze felt a little uneasy when he heard that Ning Chi called him.
But he didn't dare to delay. Although he is Su Rong's person now, he is a capable elder brother. If he says in front of Su Rong that he won't let him go to Southern Chu, what if Su Rong listens to him and doesn't want him anymore?
And his mother and his sister, but they are all in his hands.
So, he hurried to Ning Chi's study, and saw that not only his father was in the study, but his eldest brother was there, and Jiang Zhu was also there. He was puzzled, and asked cautiously, "Brother, are you looking for me?"
With so many people around, it shouldn't be his life, right?
Ning Chi nodded, handed Zhou Gu's letter to him, and said to him, "Read the letter yourself!"
Ning Ze carefully reached out to take it. After reading it, he opened his eyes wide and blurted out, "Two hundred thousand soldiers?"
Isn't this the end? There are only 30,000 soldiers and horses in Nanping.
"Second brother, what's your opinion?" Ning Chi looked at him and asked.
Ning Ze's hands trembled and Ning Chi almost knelt down again. How could he have any good ideas? He suggested to Ning Ze with a pale face, "Brother, why don't we run away?"
Ning Chi: "..."
It seems that he really thinks highly of him, just such a bastard, I don't know why Su Rong is under his command.
Seeing Ning Chi's speechless face, Ning Ze returned Zhou Gu's letterhead with fear, thinking out of desperation, "I don't know who is leading the army? As long as it's not Zhang Ping, we can tie Zhang Mao out and tie him to the tower to see who dares to kill Zhang Mao."
Ning Chi suddenly realized, by the way, there is still a Zhang Mao imprisoned in the dark prison in the mansion, he looked at Ning Ze with admiration, "Well, it is still useful."
Ning Ze was a little flattered by his affirmation, but at the same time, he also felt that he was okay, not a little waste. Although he was very scared in his heart, he was also a little flattered, so he could be useful.
"It is said that Zhang Mao also wants to seek refuge with Miss Su Qi?" Jiang Zhu asked.
Ning Ze nodded, "Miss Su Qi hasn't agreed yet. I don't know if he is sincere or not."
"Regardless of whether it is true or false, as you said, as long as Zhang Ping does not personally bring troops here, no one in Nanpinghou's mansion would dare to joke about Zhang Ping's life." Nanpinghou was also a little surprised about his second son. Unexpectedly, he thought he was abolished, but was actually taken in by Su Rong. Now he is full of energy.
As a father, he naturally hopes that both sons are well, and he doesn't want his wife to shed tears all day long for the son. Now one inherits the title, and the other goes to Southern Chu with Su Rong to make some achievements, each can be regarded as getting something.
"Then it's settled like this. When soldiers and horses come to attack the city, Zhang Mao will be tied to the tower." Ning Chi finally had some confidence in his heart, and said to Ning Ze: "I will leave Zhang Mao's place to you. You must not let him run away."
Ning Ze patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, big brother, I will definitely not let him run away."
He was still waiting to cut off Zhang Mao's finger. It was impossible for someone to fly out of his hand if he didn't cut him off.
Out of the study, everyone went to prepare separately.
Ning Ze thought about it, and ran to the dark prison again, and said to Zhang Mao, who was tied to a pillar and had not suffered any abuse: "Your family has mobilized troops, marching in a hurry, through barren mountains and wild mountains, no less than 200,000 soldiers and horses, and came to Nanping. Are you going to attack Nanping? You must know who led the troops, right?"
Zhang Mao nodded, "It's my second uncle Zhang Cheng."
"What do you want to ask?"
Ning Ze said: "You know that Nanping only has 30,000 soldiers and horses, and your family has no less than 200,000 soldiers and horses. If you are really strong, Nanping City will definitely not be able to defend it, but with you, we will tie you up to the tower. If the people who come treat you well, we will naturally not joke about your life. They dare not attack the city. If the leader of the army treats you badly, then you will be finished, and you will probably be the first to be killed."
Zhang Maodao: "My second uncle treats me well. The matter of mobilizing troops was discussed with my father's second uncle and others when I left home. They probably didn't know that I was captured and acted according to the original plan."
Ning Ze nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, "It's just good for you."
If Zhang Mao dare not attack the city, if reinforcements come, then his life can be saved, right?
Zhang Mao asked: "Where is Miss Su Qi? I want to see her."
Ning Ze shook his head, "I can't see her now. She went out to remove hidden troubles and hasn't come back yet. Didn't I tell you?"
Zhang Maomin said: "It's been a few days, and she hasn't come back yet, is she in danger? I'm afraid something happened."
"Bah, bah, you crow's mouth, don't talk nonsense, Miss Su Qi is amazing, it's impossible for anything to happen to her. She won't have any accidents." Ning Ze believed in Su Rong very much, even more than Su Rong himself.
Zhang Maodao: "My father assigned the hidden stakes distributed in various places in the Pingxi General's Mansion to my younger brother Zhang Yun. He is thoughtful, alert, and scheming. If he doesn't receive any news about the hidden stakes in two days, he will know that something has happened to the hidden stakes. He will follow the hidden lines to find out the location of the accident, and then he may use this to find Miss Su Qi and set up an ambush for her to ambush."
Ning Ze widened his eyes, "Really?"
"What did I lie to you for? My life is in your hands. No matter what, I can't escape. I'm not joking when I say surrender to Su Rong." Zhang Mao said.
Ning Ze snorted coldly, "Who knows if you are real or not, I am not a roundworm in your stomach, anyway, I can't tell. But even if it is as you said, I still believe in Miss Su Qi's ability. Maybe now your concubine brother Zhang Yun was killed by Miss Su Qi instead."
Zhang Mao didn’t argue with him, after all, he was the one who was bound, “It’s not sure.”
Seeing that he also recognized Su Rong's power, Ning Ze felt relieved again, and said to him, "If you can make your second uncle retreat, it shows that you are sincerely loyal to Miss Su Qi, and I will help you speak."
Zhang Mao shook his head, "I'm afraid it won't work. My second uncle can only refrain from attacking the city because of my scruples, but he will never retreat."
Ning Ze glared at him, "Aren't you the son of the Zhang family? Why are you so useless?"
Zhang Mao sought truth from facts, "I am the legitimate son of the Zhang family, but I am not the only son of the Zhang family. My father has no shortage of heirs."
Ning Ze also felt sorry for him at this time, "Hey, you are very knowledgeable about current affairs, and you live quite well. Okay, wait until the day when the soldiers come to the city, let's see Zhenzhang again. I tell you, you can't escape anyway. If you are going to die, everyone will die together. If you want to live, everyone will live together. Don't think about who can save you. It's impossible. My mother gave me the manpower. .”
Zhang Maodao: "Don't worry, since I have taken refuge in Su Rong, I will not run away."
Ning Ze didn't believe him.
Zhang Mao said: "I was captured. This is not only a shame for me, but also a shame for the Zhang family. Do you think that even if I can be rescued, will I still have my place in the Zhang family? I might as well surrender and follow Miss Su Qi. Not only will I have a way out, but I can also fight for a future for myself."
Ning Ze thought about it, and agreed, "That makes sense."
He scratched his head, worried for his own life and sighed, "Okay, then let's wait."
He asked someone to bring Zhang Mao a good dish and meat, which was regarded as a compliment to what he said, and then he got out of the prison, and solemnly told the people, "Take care of him, don't let him go."
