C312 The Mysterious Gong Jiu
Lin Yin's expression was cold. Judging from Ning Zongsheng and Ning Zongbao's behavior, he knew that these two people were on the verge of death. They had no access to Ning Zongdao's core secrets.
The secret between Ning Zongdao and that codename, Gong Jiu, these two definitely did not know about it.
"Great Elder, we have told you everything that we know. There is absolutely nothing to hide! We will not hold anything back if you want to ask." Ning Zongbao was terrified when he saw that Lin Yin did not say anything. He immediately swore.
"Great Elder, please believe me. If I tell a lie, ten thousand arrows will pierce my heart, and five horses will be dismembered!"
"Great Elder, you must believe us. What we said is true. If there is even the slightest bit of lie, the heavens will strike down lightning!" Ning Zongsheng's head was pounding as he knelt down and swore an oath.
Lin Yin's expression was the same as usual. He did not care about the two cowards who were scared out of their wits begging for mercy.
"Why did Ning Zongdao put Ning Taiji under house arrest?" Lin Yin asked.
"I know." "Ning Zongdao secretly used the Ning Family's network to steal the secrets of a military base. He also sent a secret guard to track some important people in the political circles. It seems that these were the cooperation between him and Gong Jiu. They even built a spy organization that specializes in stealing information."
"Later on, the old man noticed Ning Zongdao's actions and became angry. He wanted to drive Ning Zongdao out of Ning Family and even hand him over to the Military Security Bureau. Let the national department deal with him!" Ning Zongbao said," As a result, Ning Zongdao pretended to give in and beg for mercy when the old man was hesitating. With the support of Gong Jiu, he attacked first. With the help of a group of top experts, he seized power in the internal coup of the family. The old man was put under house arrest. "After that, he crazily cleaned up the higher ups of the Ning Family who questioned him."
"Steal national secrets? Selling out a spy organization?" Lin Yin frowned. He did not expect Ning Zongdao to do such a crazy thing and act like a traitor.
One should know that Ning Zongdao was the helmsman of Ning Clan of Imperial City. He had access to all the resources and connections he could use. That was a huge amount of resources. Once the overseas forces acted as spies and tried to betray the country, the destructive power and influence it would bring would be immeasurable.
This kind of thing had no bottom line. It did not even have the basic bottom line of the nation in its heart! Things that were worse than animals would be a traitor of the Great Han who was cursed by billions of compatriots in the warring era.
"Do the two of you also have a share?" Lin Yin looked at Ning Zongbao coldly. He already wanted to kill Ning Zongbao.
"No! "No! I definitely didn't! Great Elder, I swear to the heavens!" Ning Zongbao said in horror, "We can't even get in touch with Ning Zongdao's specific actions and organization. It's all his personal secrets. How can we dare to cross it? The two of us are only cooperating with him in the family to clean up the enemy and share some benefits."
"Great Elder, we really are not spies or traitors. We have no right to interfere in the transaction between Ning Zongdao and the mysterious man behind him." "We only heard Ning Zongdao reveal a little bit of the truth from time to time, and Ning Zongdao's sudden rise in power. A large group of ruthless people suddenly appeared around him. We have vaguely guessed that we have not even seen that mysterious Palace Nine, and it is impossible for us to cooperate with his spy operation," Ning Zongsheng said in a hurry, "We only heard Ning Zongdao reveal a little bit of the truth from time to time, and Ning Zongdao's sudden rise in power. We have vaguely guessed that we have not even seen that mysterious Palace Nine, let alone cooperate with his spy operation."
Lin Yin's eyes gradually turned deeper. He already knew what had happened in the Ning Family during this period of time.
Ning Zongdao was in charge of the Ning Family's overseas forces and industrial resources. He had been traveling overseas all year long. He was probably infiltrated by the overseas forces.
However, he didn't know which country and which force the person who codenamed "Gong Jiu" behind Ning Zongdao was from.
Hearing the codename Gong Jiu, Lin Yin suspected that it was a certain Japan in the Pacific Ocean. After all, the Japan and the Dragon Country had been enemies for hundreds of years. There was once a history that couldn't be forgotten.
Especially since the Japan had been spying on the territory of the Dragon Country for a long time. It was a dangerous race that had been scheming for a long time.
After thinking for a while, Lin Yin said, "Take me to Ning Taiji."
"Yes! The old master is in the attic here. Great Elder, come with me." Ning Zongbao forced a smile and said respectfully.
Seeing that Lin Yin had no intention of killing them for the time being, the two of them let out a long sigh of relief.
Soon, under the lead of Ning Zongbao and Ning Zongbao, Lin Yin arrived at the redwood pavilion where Ning Taiji was.
The people in charge of guarding Ning Taiji had been transferred away by Ning Zong a long time ago, and those black-clothed experts had all been killed by Lin Yin. Therefore, in the pavilion, Ning Taiji was the only one who was resting on the bed.
Lin Yin looked over and saw an old man with white hair lying on the bed in an ancient-looking room.
The old man was dressed in plain clothes. His face was thin and his face was haggard, but his eyes were full of vigor. One could vaguely see his heroic appearance when he was young.
When he was young, Lin Yin had met Ning Taiji once, so he was able to recognize him.
"Old Master Ning, I'm Lin Yin." Lin Yin said calmly.
Ning Taiji slowly opened his eyes and looked at Lin Yin. He stood up from the bed with difficulty and said seriously, "Mansion Lord has come. I did not welcome you."
"In front of Mansion Lord, Ning Zongdao's unfilial son should have been killed." Ning Taiji's expression was complicated as he said, "This old man did not discipline him well and taught such an unfilial son. He is truly a laughing stock. I hope that Mansion Lord does not vent his anger on the entire Ning Family because of this."
Ning Taiji was a figure who had witnessed countless big scenes. When he heard that Lin Yin had come to Imperial City, he had almost guessed that this would be the outcome. Unfortunately, it was useless to advise that treacherous son of Ning Zongdao.
If Lin Yin came to the Ning Family, Ning Zongdao would die for sure.
Ning Taiji's heart was extremely complicated. No matter what, Ning Zongdao was his biological son who was raised by him. He had never thought that he would end up on the wrong path, walking on a path that would destroy all humanity and lead to eternal damnation.
"I already know the sequence of events." "Ning Zongdao's cottage doesn't represent the Ning Family."
Ning Taiji nodded seriously. Lin Yin's words were to separate Ning Zongdao from the Ning Family. He wouldn't blame the Ning Family on the surface, which made him let out a long sigh of relief.
Others might not know, but Ning Taiji knew about the existence of the prefecture. He knew in his heart how powerful it was.
The mere Ning Family was nothing in front of the Dragon Mansion.
Lin Yin was the Mansion Lord of the Dragon Prefecture. If he wanted to destroy the Ning Family, he could do it with a single thought.
"Mansion Lord is a man of righteousness. I'm ashamed." Ning Taiji said seriously, "Mansion Lord, do you have any orders for coming to the Imperial City?"
