Ning Ge snapped his fingers, his eyes gleaming as he said, "I think I might know why!"
His sudden exclamation startled the contemplative Ning Gang, who couldn't help but scold, "Just speak, what's with all the hullabaloo?"
Ning Ge chuckled and took a seat, saying, "I know why Jiang Conghe wants to send Big Brother Qi to the borderlands!"
"What send to the borderlands, it was just a nomination, don't talk nonsense!" Ning Gang chided softly.
"Then you tell me, why?" Old Master Ning was very curious. What had his son discovered?
Feigning an air of mysterious profundity, Ning Ge teased, "Before we talk about anything else, let me ask you first, you've all met Jiang Conghe during the New Year's festivities and such, right? Did you notice anything amiss?"
Old Master Ning leaned back in his chair, "I didn't really attend the festivities this year, you'd have to ask your elder brother about that."
After some thought, Ning Gang said, "There wasn't anything amiss, ah!"
