Chapter 850: Crying to the Emperor

The Duke Residence of the Ning Country, the Duke of Ning was enjoying his tea while listening to a little tune, when he saw his second son return with a pale face, "What has upset you?"

Ning Hui, already in poor health, sat down while pressing on his forehead, "Today at the residence of the fifth prince, neither the Crown Prince nor the other princes were there. I wanted to come back early, but Zhang Yang kept holding me back, incessantly talking into my ear, giving me such a headache now."

The Duke of Ning didn't care much for Zhang Yang, "You should go back and rest early too!"

Ning Hui thought for a moment and said, "Father, Zhang Yang kept asking if the investigation into Zhang Jinghong's ancestry has been cleared up, and from the look on Zhang Yang's face, he seems to hold a lot of hatred toward Zhang Jinghong."

"Zhang Jinghong's background coming to light is actually his safeguard, no matter how much Zhang Yang hates him, he wouldn't dare to confront him openly."
