Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

Chapter 132 He is not of royal blood

It's a beautiful day with bright sunshine, and it's a new day.

Officials above the fourth rank came with their families, and there were several more tents, with crowds of people everywhere.

The female members of the family regarded this as a rare relaxing entertainment activity. They gathered together to chat, eat, walk around the forest garden and enjoy the scenery, feeling free and easy.

However, they had a tacit understanding, which was to ignore Ning Zhiwei at the same time, or dare not approach her.

The attitude of the royal family towards her is very clear. Who would dare to approach her without fear of death?

Ning Zhiwei enjoys the ease of entertainment, entertaining himself, bringing a snack box and tea, eating and drinking, and taking a book, and he can spend the day.

When I was tired, I would sit on a chair with a small blanket and fall asleep.

"How can she sleep?" Several rich young ladies not far away were stunned. Who is this person?

Being ostracized like this, she doesn't care at all?

Duan Xinyu looked at the seemingly delicate girl with a complicated expression. Only she knew how much her grandfather admired Princess Jingning. He always said, why didn't the Duan family have such a talented child.

"Wild beasts always travel alone, while cattle and sheep travel in herds."

That is to say, the weak always form groups, while the strong always go alone.

The noble queen on the side, Chen Guogong's granddaughter, Chen Wan'er, teased coldly, "Oh, you're speaking for her so soon? That's right, the person you are going to marry is her... subordinate, this is your future master, why don't you go and serve him quickly."

Duan Xinyu's face changed drastically. "The girl always talks about getting married. The Chen family is really well educated."

"You..." Chen Wan'er glared angrily, "What's so great about you? You were the most noble before you got married, but after you got married, you have to be a slave to others."

Duan Xin's eyes were red with tears, "This is the Queen Mother's order. Are you dissatisfied with her? Okay, I'll go find her right away."

She turned around and left, shocking Chen Wan'er, "No, no, I was wrong. Don't be so serious. I'll give you the jade pendant that the Queen Mother personally gave me."

"Hmph, who cares." Duan Xinyu didn't really mean to make a fuss, and it wouldn't do her any good if she made a big fuss.

After this episode, Duan Xinyu avoided Ning Zhiwei even more and stayed away from her.

Ning Zhiwei didn't care. It didn't matter whether she got married or not. What mattered was...

After a delicious lunch at noon, Ning Zhiwei took Shaoyao out for a walk to help digest the food. They didn’t walk far, just wandered around nearby.

"Jingning County Lady."

Ning Zhiwei turned her head and saw, "Old Madam Duan is here, have you eaten?"

Madam Duan came over with the help of her maid. "I've finished eating. Come out to digest the food. Can we chat for a while?"

"Please." Ning Zhiwei smiled slightly, calmly and indifferently.

Madam Duan didn't want to stay too long and arouse suspicion, so she got straight to the point, "I heard that there is another Qilang in the Ning family who is still alive?"

Ning Zhiwei looked at her deeply and said, "Yes, my seventh brother is lucky and survived."

Madam Duan asked with concern, "Where is he now? Is he okay? Why doesn't he return to the capital?"

Ning Zhiwei thought she was here to discuss her granddaughter's marriage, so why did the topic turn to Seventh Brother? "He was injured and is still recovering in the northwest."

"I see. I have a lot of medicinal herbs. Just tell me what you need." Old Madam Duan said very beautifully and generously. After a while, she changed the subject and said, "My master wants to marry into your Ning family, but the target must be a male of the Ning family."

At present, the only male member of the Ning family who is of marriageable age is Ning Qillang.

Ning Zhiwei raised her eyebrows, understanding the Duan family's intention, "My seventh brother is already married."

Madam Duan disagreed, "It's not unacceptable to have two branches at the same time."

Ning Zhiwei's mind raced, she didn't comment, "Who is your Duan family's candidate?"

Madam Duan's tone changed, and she said solemnly and seriously, "Duan Xinyu, the eldest daughter of our Duan family."

Ning Zhiwei was silent. The Duan family had a lot of little tricks up their sleeves, but right now, she needed the Duan family as an ally. "I need to think about it."

She was so serious that Old Madam Duan was relieved. "You have ten days to think about it."

"Okay." Ning Zhi nodded with a narrowed smile. Suddenly, a sharp light flashed in his eyes. "By the way, tell Prime Minister Duan for me that the son of the successor queen is the youngest, but he has a fatal weakness."

Madam Duan's heart was beating like thunder. What did she...know? "What?"

Ning Zhiwei knew too much. The emperor in the previous life died suddenly without leaving a single word. The princes fought each other for the throne. Prime Minister Duan joined forces with other ministers to support the empress's son, the sixth prince, to succeed to the throne, which started the most chaotic internal struggle in the history of Da Qi.

"Not of royal blood."

Madam Duan's face lost all color and her lips trembled. "How is this possible?"

Ning Zhiwei smiled faintly and said nothing. In the eyes of Old Madam Duan, he seemed unfathomable and intimidating.

Not long after, Prime Minister Duan's face changed when he heard the words, "Did she really say that?"

Madam Duan looked pale, and had not yet recovered. "Yes, that's exactly what she said. How could the Sixth Prince not be the Emperor's biological son? Are you kidding me? How did she know that?"

The more she spoke, the more flustered and confused she became.

"Master, she not only guessed your thoughts, but also knew who you chose."

Prime Minister Duan was silent for a long time. "It can be said that it is a blessing in disguise that the Ning family has such a person. If they can get through this, they will surely lead the Ning family to soar to the sky."

"What a shame, why isn't it a boy?"

It was this sentence again. Old Madam Duan was a little uncomfortable with it. "She is no worse than a man."

Prime Minister Duan had a look of regret on his face. "Although she is the head of the Ning family, the Ning family will eventually return to the hands of men. Everything she has done is just to prepare wedding clothes for others."

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Duan felt disappointed and sighed softly. The reason she was able to become the head of the family as an exception was because all the male members of the Ning family had died in the war. If there were still male members, the situation would be different.

"It's a pity. If she is unwilling, the Ning family will never have peace..."

Prime Minister Duan waved his hand, interrupting her main words, "Don't forget her background. Her surname is not Ning, but Lin. The Ning family has been very kind to her. No matter what, she will not betray the Ning family, otherwise she will be despised by the world."

Old Madam Duan could only sigh.

After much deliberation, Prime Minister Duan decided that Ning Zhiwei was very capable. This was both a bad thing and a good thing, depending on how to do it.

"I'll do whatever it takes to finalize this marriage. I want my granddaughter to become the mistress of the Ning family. The next head of the Ning family will come out of her belly."

The Duan family held high positions in government and had power and influence, but they did not have military power.

In these turbulent times, military power is extremely important.

Once the two are bound together, they will be invincible in the world, and some ambitions can be realized.

"Tell her that as a condition for cooperation, my Duan family will help her escape this disaster and leave the capital."

But he didn't know that Ning Zhiwei wanted more than just this.

"Miss, what else do you want?"

Ning Zhiwei looked at the towering green mountains and listened to the deafening sounds of the three camps of soldiers hunting. He said calmly, "When he supported the sixth prince to ascend the throne and held power, he did not allow the imperial army to pursue and intercept my Ning family."

The road to escape is extremely dangerous. Once the imperial court orders the armies to pursue and intercept, even if she has omnipotent powers, she cannot guarantee that she can bring everyone safely to the northwest.

Shaoyao frowned slightly, "So, do we really have to sacrifice the Seventh Young Master's marriage?"

Ning Zhiwei smiled slightly and said something that made people stunned...
