Chapter 186: Those who break through will be killed without mercy

"I'm just following orders, I don't need a reason."

Ning Liu got furious and jumped off the carriage and rushed to the young man, "I'm going to force my way in, let's see what you can do to me."

As a member of the Ning family, I was stopped at the Yumen Pass, which has been guarded by the Ning family for generations. This is too ridiculous.

She wanted to ask, what do these people want to do?

A cold light flashed in the boy's eyes. He drew out his sword and slashed at Ning Liu without hesitation. "Anyone who breaks through will be killed without mercy."

Ning Liu stared blankly at the sword coming towards him, his mind going blank.

The Ning family was terrified, "Xiao Liu, get out of the way."

The young man acted as soon as he said he would, and his movements were so fast that the guards had no time to react. Just as they were about to hit Ning Liu, an arrow flew through the air and hit the young man's wrist. The young man felt a piercing pain, and the sword in his hand flew out involuntarily, brushing past Ning Liu's hair.

Ning Liu escaped death and broke out in a cold sweat. The guards rushed forward and pulled Ning Liu behind them, pointing their swords at the young man.

However, the guards guarding the city all took out their weapons and pointed them at the guards. The two sides were in a standoff and were about to break out.

The rebellious young man was a ruthless man. He pulled out the arrow fiercely, covered his bloody wrist, and roared, "Who attacked me? Who is it? Stand out."

Ning Zhiwei stepped out from the crowd holding a bow and arrow, and said calmly, "It's me."

"Who are you?" The rebellious young man was surprised to find that it was a masked woman. "How dare you hurt me?"

Ning Zhiwei looked at this strange boy. She had never seen him before and was too lazy to talk to him. "Go, call Ning Ran out."

The rebellious young man flew into a rage, "Who the hell are you? How dare you call the silver-faced young general by his name? Get out of here!"

The guards guarding the city rushed over and surrounded Ning Zhiwei. Ning Zhiwei pulled down her veil, revealing her beautiful face. "It's me, Ning Zhiwei, the Princess of Jingning County, the head of the Ning family."

"Zhiwei." Old Madam Ning felt relieved. Fortunately, she caught up.

"Auntie." The children were the happiest, waving their hands and smiling. "We missed you so much."

Ning Liu rushed over crying, "Fifth sister, you are finally back, wuwu, they bullied me."

She was so arrogant just now and tried to force her way through, but now she was like a child who had been wronged and had tears in her eyes when she saw her backer.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Ning Zhiwei patted her shoulder with a calm look.

Seeing her coming, everyone in the Ning family breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.

Ning Zhiwei looked at the guards guarding the city, and looked around one by one. There were familiar people, "Li Agou, Jiang Xiaoer, do you want to be my enemy?"

The two people who were in a daze suddenly woke up, fell to their knees with a plop, and their eyes were red. "Young lady, we dare not go against you. You are our master."

"Young lady, you are finally back. Everyone missed you so much and thought you would never come back."

Ning Zhiwei sighed softly. Her grandfather was afraid that she would be looked down upon and bullied, so he praised her highly. Her brothers were addressed according to their seniority, but she was the only one called the Little Miss instead of the Fifth Miss. She was unique.

She was the only one who could freely enter and exit every place in Yumen Pass, including her grandfather's study and the commander-in-chief's tent.

Those were such happy and joyful times, but unfortunately, alas.

"Why wouldn't I come back? This is my home. I've lived here for fifteen years. I'm familiar with every tree and blade of grass in this city."

Li Agou's tears flowed faster. The Ning family army was crippled, generals fell, and countless brothers died on the battlefield. God knows how they survived.

"Many, many brothers died in the battle, the Ning family army... Woohoo, young lady, I'm glad you're back."

Ning Zhiwei was filled with mixed feelings, "Hurry up, where is Ning Ran?"

Li Agou reported loudly, "The young silver-faced general has been stationed in the army all year round, constantly rushing to the battlefield, and rarely returns to the city. He is now training troops at Erlang Mountain outside the city."

Ning Zhiwei was stunned. He rarely returned to the city? He only focused on fighting? "Go, call him over."

"Yes." Li Agou ran away.

Ning Zhiwei looked at Jiang Xiaoer, "Who is in charge in the city?"

"This..." Jiang Xiaoer hesitated for a moment and subconsciously looked at the rebellious young man.

"explain."

Jiang Xiaoer gritted his teeth and said, "It's... Mr. Jiang, the brother-in-law of Mr. Ning Qishao."

Everyone in the Ning family looked at the wife of the Seventh Young Master Ning. The wife of the Fourth Young Master Ning could not help but ask, "Sister-in-law of the Seventh Brother, is your uncle here? Why haven't you mentioned him before?"

Mrs. Ning Qishao was confused. "But, my uncle's last name is not Jiang. Is this a mistake?"

Everyone in the Ning family was stunned. Not surnamed Jiang? What does that mean?

Ning Zhiwei frowned, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

Mrs. Ning Qishao's heart and eyes were full of her husband, "Fifth sister, I want to go to the city to see my husband."

Ning Zhiwei glanced around and said, "Don't worry, wait until Ning Ran comes."

Madam Ning was extremely anxious. The closer she got, the more she couldn't keep calm. "I want to see my husband. I can't wait even a moment."

The man was not far away, how could she still wait here?

Madam Ning's face was solemn, "Xiao Wu, I can't wait to see Xiao Qi either."

She seemed to realize that something was wrong and was eager to find out what was going on.

Ning Zhiwei looked at them deeply, with a very complicated expression, "Then go in."

"Dongsheng, Ning Xiaohu."

The two men stepped out at the same time, "I'm here."

Ning Zhiwei ordered, "You two each take a team and stay here to support and wait for General Ning Ran's arrival."

"Yes."

"Jiang Xiaoer, lead the way."

"As ordered."

Ning Zhiwei never looked at the rebellious young man from beginning to end. He turned over and sat on the horse's back, "Let's go into the city."

At her command, everyone followed her into the city, and no one dared to stop her.

The rebellious young man looked at Ning Zhiwei's receding figure with a look of surprise and doubt. Is this the legendary Princess Jingning?

You were living well in Beijing, why did you come back?

He is still so strong. This is going to be a big trouble.

The group entered the city one after another. Ning Zhiwei looked around while riding on horseback. This city had never fallen, so it had not been destroyed by war.

However, it is far less prosperous than before. Many shops are closed and the people are skinny and look sad under the shadow of war.

As I was walking, a surprised voice sounded, "Young lady, young lady, is that you?"

She was the owner of the roadside wonton stall, an old lady in her seventies, who looked at Ning Zhiwei with great joy.

Ning Zhi greeted with a smile, "It's me, Grandma Xu, I'm back."

The old woman was extremely happy. "Good, that's great. I'm glad you're back safely. Come and try Grandma Xu's cooking."

"Grandma Xu's wontons are amazing. I miss them so much." Ning Zhiwei pointed to the convoy behind him. "However, I have to escort my family back home first. I'll come over to eat some other day."

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Wherever Ning Zhiwei went, everyone greeted her warmly, calling her "Young Miss" in a very affectionate manner.

Ning Liu poked his head out curiously, "Fifth sister, how come you know so many peddlers?"

"I used to go out with my brothers often to eat, drink and have fun. I know every stall." Ning Zhiwei's eyes gradually turned red as she spoke. This city is full of memories.

In Ning Mansion, the gate of the majestic mansion was closed.

Ning Zhiwei's eyes darkened slightly, "Go, knock on the door."

"Open the door quickly, Madam Ning and her family have returned home."

The door opened, and a group of strong women came out, surrounding a beautiful young woman. She was very dignified, like the hostess of a house.
