"It's a son's fault if he doesn't teach his father. Does An Guogong have any opinion on this?"
Xia Xia Zi said slowly. None of the ministers paid attention to it. This was naturally not important. However, Xia Zi would definitely not let Ning Yuan go so easily. There must be deeper meanings.
"The old minister has nothing to say and is willing to accept it."
Ning Yuan nodded. Although he didn't understand Xia Zi's intention, he could certainly accept this.
It's just half a year of shutting up and thinking about it. Although a lot of profits will be lost in this half year, it won't affect too much.
"Second point, the victims of this matter are Duke Cheng's family. Naturally, you have to give some compensation. To be fair, I'll give you one hundred thousand taels of gold. Do you have any objections?"
Ning Yuan's face darkened. One hundred thousand taels of gold, for a Duke's palace, was a huge hemorrhage that would affect the very existence.
While he was thinking about how to bargain, Xia Zi said something again.
"I know that your Duke Anguo's harvest has been pretty good over the years. Those shops have made a lot of money all over the country, so it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Ning Yuan was stunned. After meeting Xia Zi's eyes, he realized that Xia Zi knew everything.
The activities of Duke An Guo's Mansion have been discovered by His Majesty. If he does not agree, the subsequent losses will be even more serious.
In this case, it is truly a loss that outweighs the gain.
"no problem."
After hearing such an excessive request, Ning Yuan agreed, and the ministers had different expressions.
"What exactly does Ning Yuan want to do? He will agree to such a request. Does he really intend to follow through?"
"Not resisting at all, this is not Ning Yuan's character."
"What is this guy doing?"
Bai Wuge frowned. He couldn't understand Ning Yuan more and more, but this guy was definitely not a good teammate. There was no telling which time he would be tricked to death by this guy.
"We need to find other people to cooperate. His Majesty wants to deal with us. This is not a good thing. We must be careful."
Bai Wuge knew clearly that Ning Yuan was just the first, not the last.
Xia Zi will not give up until he defeats himself.
"My lord is not an idiot like Ning Yuan. You'd better not anger my lord."
Bai Wuge looked at Xia Zi, a look of disdain flashed in his eyes. He no longer had any respect for His Majesty.
Xia Tianzi didn't know what Bai Wuge was thinking, so he just continued: "In addition, An Guogong will have to think about his mistakes behind closed doors for the past six months, but the Black Armored Army still needs someone to lead and train."
"So, I would like to ask Duke An Guo to hand over the tiger talisman, and I will take charge of it for a period of time."
Tu Qiong saw that the entire hall was eerily quiet. Everyone knew that this was Xia Zi's real purpose. From the beginning, he had wanted to gain military power.
Others are just a cover.
So, will Ning Yuan still agree?
When it comes to military power, it's not just a trivial matter. Duke Anguo himself was also a military general. He was also a military general and was in charge of the Black Armored Army.
This black-armored army is the most important support of Duke Anguo's government. Now that Xia Zi asks him to hand over the tiger talisman, there is no return.
It was impossible for Xia Zi to return the Black Armored Army to him. The army of the Great Xia Dynasty only recognized tiger symbols, not people.
this……
Ning Yuan was in trouble, and he could be regarded as seeing Xia Zi's purpose. Unfortunately, it was too late, and he was now in a situation where he was neither better nor worse.
No matter how you do it, it's not good.
Rejecting Xia Zi would mean disobeying the order again, and Xia Zi had the right to send him to the execution ground directly.
After agreeing, after losing his military power, his Anguo Duke's mansion existed in name only. Although Xia Zizi might not take action again, he was equivalent to losing everything.
Even if he could have enough food and clothing, it was hard for Ning Yuan to accept it.
The power has been held in the hands for too long, and it is impossible to let it go easily.
The others didn't speak either. They were all waiting for Ning Yuan to speak. Once this military power was handed over, it would be a complete victory for Xia Zi.
But in this case, what reason does he have for not handing over.
Xia Tianzi laid the groundwork very well, and Ning Yuan simply couldn't refuse.
Several princes were even more enlightened, and they understood that Xia Zi was only eyeing military power, and Ning Yuan was the only one who was too stupid to realize this.
I really thought that Xia Tianzi just beat them and warned him, and would not take action directly.
Li Kaixin sneered, Ning Yuan no longer had any reason to refuse.
Bai Wuge sighed in his heart. He had known the result for a long time, but now even if he wanted to help Ning Yuan refuse, it was unlikely.
Xia Zi has said this, Ning Yuan has no choice.
"What? Is An Guogong not willing?"
Xia Tianzi looked at Ning Yuan with a half-smile.
Ning Yuan felt Xia Zi's gaze and understood that he had lost completely. In this way, his choice was very simple.
What Xia Zi wants is military power, and he will not let Anguo Duke's mansion be destroyed like this. It is not impossible to give up military power.
At least, they Anguo Duke's Mansion will still have a chance to exist. If they resist the decree and disobey it, there will really be no room for it.
"Of course not, I'm just a little reluctant to give up. However, I am already a bit old and my health is not as good as before. This military power should really be given to young people."
"The foreign enemies of Great Xia are eyeing us, and I am willing to make a contribution to Great Xia."
"In the afternoon, I will personally deliver the Tiger Talisman to His Majesty."
Xia Zi nodded with satisfaction, very satisfied with Ning Yuan's performance.
Ning Yuan was also very smart and directly chose to join Xia Zi to show his loyalty.
Without military power, just relying on some other official positions is not enough to be a prince.
But with Xia Zi behind him, he can sit back and relax.
It's not bad to be an idle prince, but it will take some time to really let go.
Li Kai looked at Ning Yuan, somewhat impressed by this guy. At least his current choice was very correct.
Bai Wuge hoped that Ning Yuan would fight, but this was just his idea. At this time, he had long since ignored Xia Zi, so he naturally felt that resisting would be better.
But Ning Yuan knew in his heart that with them, it would be difficult to rebel against the royal family of the Great Xia Dynasty.
As the royal family of the Great Xia Dynasty for so many years, how could the Xia family not have any background?
Besides, does he really think other Anglicans will agree to the rebellion?
Ning Yuan is here, more sober and understanding than Bai Wuge.
Several other princes also understood that they should choose to side with Xia Zi in the future. It seemed that they should also find time to surrender.
For these princes, they actually tend to side with Xia Zi. After all, the Xia family is the real orthodoxy.
