Chapter 1460: This Person Must Not Be Allowed to Stay

ailant was! Despite running the Ouyang family for so many years, he couldn't see through the true culprit behind this incident. There were no signs, no clues, and it came out of nowhere, too sudden to...After Lao Duan gave such an order, Li Nanfang was the happiest of all.

Although he had already eaten a big meal when he went to bed, who says breakfast can replace lunch

Indeed, people could live on just one meal a day, no, one meal a month or even one meal a year.

Especially Li Nanshan seemed to have a spring dream while sleeping, giving a certain young lady a lot of valuable protein—— After arriving in the hall, he drank a belly full of tea.

Tea and water, this thing, is a tool to thoroughly search one's bowels. A little bit of fat and it will scrape it out from the intestines, along with a stream of urine. Lots of heat energy goes to waste for nothing.

Then it made people feel very awkward, very awkward.

But given the current dire circumstances of the Duan family, while everyone else had no appetite for food, Li Nanfang insisted on working hard to earn his meals. That would be too insensitive.

No matter what changes the arrival of those big shots might bring to the Duan family, it's nothing compared to the importance of having a full meal.

With his hawk-like vision, Lao Duan keenly noticed Li Nanfang's eyes light up and smiled: "Duan Fu, instruct the kitchen to prepare two extra dishes like braised pork trotters and braised pork knuckles."

Last night, Old Duan saw for himself that his son-in-law had a special fondness for these two dishes.

Li Nanfang immediately cupped his hands and bowed to Duan Lao, saying with a tinge of shame: "Master, please don't make fun of me. I've always been a meat-lover."

"If you don't eat meat, will you die"

Duan Xing didn't know either how she suddenly blurted that out.

After saying that, he realized it was wrong and quickly stuck out his tongue.

Li Nanfang looked at her, and said very seriously: "Not eating meat won't kill you. But some people who don't eat meat, will really crave it. They might even imagine eating meat when they think about emptiness to the extreme."

Li Nanfang didn't lie.

For half a year he lived on that small island, eating nothing but fish and shrimp; he had never tasted meat dishes like braised pork knuckle.

At that time, he did have the hallucination of eating meat.

Duan Xing again didn't have that kind of profound experience, where could he possibly meet his desire at the time Hearing this, he curled his lips: "Cut it out, there's no need to exaggerate like that. It's not like you're saying, just don't eat meat I haven't eaten meat my whole life, and I wouldn't hallucinate—"

When she said the word "illusion," something suddenly came to mind.

Meat.

Isn't that thing also a "meat product"

At the thought of that kind of meat, Duan Ling's usually delicate face suddenly flushed red.

Then, Old Duan, who had been smiling at her, immediately sensed something was amiss.

This is the old fox.

Duan Zingxing only suddenly blushed, and Lao Huixli immediately thought of when she had sent Li Nanfang to Duan Xiangning's room that morning. She seemed to have stayed there for a long time before returning.

At that time, everyone in the Duan family was flustered and no one paid attention to this matter.

Now, when the news reached him that five of his fellow elders had come to visit, Duan Lao, who knew this matter was still within his control, immediately regained his former shrewdness. From the abnormal behavior of his youngest granddaughter, he realized something.

Besides Mr. Duan, there was another person who noticed Duan's slip-up.

Dan Ning.

As soon as Duan Ning saw that her grandfather's usually half-closed eyes had opened wide, she immediately sensed something was wrong. She quickly reached behind her with her right hand and gave herself a sharp pinch on the waist.

A twinge of pain shot through his injured area. He instinctively raised his head, about to ask what was going on, when he happened to lock eyes with Lao Si.

They truly were a pair of kindred spirits, probably connected on a spiritual level — Duan Lingxing understood immediately after meeting Duan Lao Si's gaze.

After a moment of stunned silence, her flushed face drained of all color.

Then, she lowered her head.

Now, Duan Xing understands very clearly how important his elder sister, Duan Xiangning, is to the Duan family and the great sacrifices she has made for them.

She is the national treasure of the Duan family, not to be harmed in the slightest.

While she was being taken away by the military, I gave her a bright green hat. Does that count as harm

Come on.

If this isn't counting, then what is

Just when Duan Xiangning was being worshipped and respected by all the members of the Duan family, Duan Lingxing hurt her. Would Duan Lao be willing

Once Duan Xiangning knew, would she be willing

No more taking the blame for the Duan family, what to do

Duan Ziging was still too young.

If she could remain calm enough when facing Lao Si, or pretend to be innocent, the old fox wouldn't become even more certain that he was right.

But she stubbornly lowered her head.

This is what being guilty feels like.

"Oh."

Mr. Duan sighed softly in his heart and glanced at Li Nanfang from the corner of his eye.

Li Nanfang couldn't figure out what was going on.

At most, he could only muster a few scattered, uninspired reactions on his youthful face. It was rather strange, really.

It's nothing.

It's perfectly normal for children to be mischievous and playful.

Compared to figuring out what kids are thinking, Li Nanfang is more concerned about whether he'll be able to have a good meal later.

Seeing that his grandson-in-law's heart was open and frank, Old Duan was also quite surprised.

My first reaction was that this guy had a really deep mind. He clearly used sweet talk to deceive her when she took him to Xiang Ning's room, but now he's acting like nothing happened, making it hard to see through him.

Nobody likes people they can't see through.

Especially someone who could even baffle an old fox like Old Duan.

Mr. Duan had made his decision.

Once this matter is settled and I perfectly align with the forces behind Li Nanfang, I will immediately take action to drive him away, far, far away, and never allow him to set foot in the Duan family again.

Lao Duan thought to himself, "The Duan family can achieve great things, that is, becoming the emperor's heir."

Yet, he’s now entangled in this earth-shattering event.

Even if he could rely on his ancestors' protection this time and emerge unscathed from the whirlpool, he was ultimately dealt a heavy blow.

Any originally confident person will inevitably see their confidence decrease after experiencing such a devastating blow.

Then, when encountering similar situations again, they would definitely be hesitant when making decisions out of fear, unable to perform at their instinctive level, leading to strategic mistakes and causing unpredictable losses for the Duan family.

In the future, even in that state, Emperor Duan would still be able to command respect. With his previous achievements and accumulated prestige, he could still control the Fourth Prince, the Fifth Prince, and several of his sisters.

What about in Li Nanfang's view

Li Nanfang could only see that he was becoming more and more cautious in his actions. After being restrained, some improper thoughts began to arise.

Given his current depth of scheming, coupled with his status as the son-in-law of the Duan family and the backing of powerful forces behind him, if he plays his cards right, he could stage a coup and dethrone the heir apparent from his position as head of the family. He could then either take the throne himself or install Xiang Ning as a puppet head of the family, thus gaining complete control over the Duan family.

Thus, the Dali Duan clan of a hundred years would gradually change their surname to Li.

Don't forget, Xiangning and her children will definitely be surnamed Li.

If that were truly the case, I would become the sinner of the Duan family for all generations.

After death, one cannot be forgiven by their ancestors.

The more Lao Duan thought about it, the more his heart pounded. His hands and feet started to feel cold. Looking at Li Nanfang's eyes from the corner of his vision, he already felt a chilling coldness: "After this is settled, I must get rid of him. If necessary, I can sacrifice Xiangning again and completely cut off his access to Duan family's foundation."

Li Nanfang may not know, but Lao Duan had already made up his mind about him unknowingly.

He just hoped that his favorite red-braised pork knuckle would be served soon.

Who cares who those people are, following Duan Fu's hurried steps into the hall Knowing them is irrelevant; what matters is that they have empty stomachs and just want to fill their mouths with the delicious braised pork knuckle.

The first person to step into the room, following a path illuminated by blessings, was Wang Xu, the expert in military intelligence.

Actually, Wang Xu didn't enjoy being at the forefront at all. He disliked becoming the leader of this group investigating suspected leaks of confidential military intelligence.

He would rather be the "attendant" of Director Jing or Director Zhang of National Security, which would prove that his role in this mission was merely to assist.

As for how to "summon a great army to demand an explanation" when confronting the heroic martyrs, the danger of having one's head smashed by Old Duan's cane will be borne by someone else.

But he didn't want to be the one in charge, no way.

Who allowed the intelligence agency to get the live-fire exercise plan leaked in the first place Who made him the head honcho of military intelligence's fake intel division

Wang Xu, with a troubled heart, was even more depressed than before.

But not only was the early bird no good, the first one to take a step into the hall had to be the boldest.

Wang Xu's first glance, naturally, went to Elder Duan seated on the Taishi chair.

This isn't a New Year's visit, or even a birthday celebration. Of course, Wang Xu wouldn't nod and smile to show proper courtesy.

He came to investigate the case.

Since he came to investigate a case, even to arrest someone, he represents the state.

Similar to officials in feudal society who wielded imperial edicts and went about inspecting matters, such a figure naturally couldn't lose face for the royal court.

One must keep a straight face and be businesslike.

After his gaze swept across Lao Duan's face, Wang Xu naturally turned to the person beside his right hand.

After Wang Xu finished speaking with Lao Duan, he looked at this man instead of Duan Erdai on his left. That was because this man was doing something unbelievable – he was gobbling down the red braised pork knuckle in front of him, oblivious to everyone else.

After Duan Jia was suspected of leaking top-secret military intelligence, it was like the sky was falling.

At any moment, soldiers armed to the teeth burst in, brandishing handcuffs and ready to apprehend anyone.

Whoever's family gets into this kind of trouble, they wouldn't be able to eat, let alone breathe.

But he was eating.

Wang Xu was stunned for a moment, and after seeing this person's face clearly, he was dumbfounded again.

That's all there is to it.

He actually knows this guy: "Damn, isn't that Li Nánfāng How could he be at the Dàlǐ Duàn family in this sensitive situation And his domineering appearance really left me dumbfounded."

Back then, when trying to extract key data from the North Star System from a certain woman's mouth, Li Nanfang, who coincidentally went there to search for Min Rou, fell into Lao Er Hu's trap. He, along with his wife Alena, risked his life and narrowly escaped death as he dived deep into the Red Bean Prison, known as the world's most secure prison—helping the military intelligence agency a huge favor while also providing Helan Xiaoxin with an opportunity to atone for her crimes.

It was from that time on that Wang Xu met Li Nanfang.

Knowing this man was not only considered a nephew by people like Jinghong, but also the sweetheart of Yue Zichong.

Instead, on June 10th, he showed up at the wedding in full regalia as the Flower Night God bridegroom, leaving all the guests utterly dumbfounded.

Wang Xu is just one person among the many dumbfounded people in Li.

That day felt just like yesterday, and today Li Ren渣 once again gave Wang Xu the same feeling.

Not only was it him, even Jing Hongming who stood behind him, after seeing Li Nanshan actually present, was also stunned and secretly shocked.

In his heart, he secretly cursed: "This little bastard, how could he appear at the Duan family during such a sensitive period And judging by his seat position, he is definitely treated as a distinguished guest by the Duan family. What's going on How come I didn't get any information about him before he came to Dali"

Just as Jinghong was surprised, a hushed voice came from Liu, the commander of Dali Military District, to her ear: “Director Jinghong, that young man’s surname is Ye, and his name is Shen. He is the son-in-law of Old Duan. His wife is Duan Xianger. As for his background, we haven't had time to investigate yet.”
