Nie Ting'an was indeed cruel, but who had experienced the abduction of a legitimate son, which one was easy to mess with?
Ever since he learned that those nomads worshiped a goddess, he immediately asked people to find out their identities.
When Qin Xue really heard what the other party said, she was so frightened that she took a breath of air and even took a step back.
Such behavior was despised by Nie Ting'an, and mocking words followed.
"How can someone as timid as a mouse compare to thousands of noble goddesses? The method is not bad, but the person did not choose the right one."
This sentence resonated with Tangxi City.
"What your Majesty said is exactly what he said. If this woman didn't have other wonderful uses, he wouldn't bother to involve her in this dispute."
Nie Ting'an became interested. He knew that the Chixiao Kingdom was now deeply involved in disputes over the struggle for heirs. When he was fighting for heirs, it was often a time of civil strife in a country.
If you bet on the right thing at this time, you might be able to get a share of the pie. Nie Ting'an would certainly have a hand in such a good thing.
But whether the person in front of you is worthy of your bet depends on how you get along with him next.
"I, Jiuguang Kingdom, are not interested in the disputes between Chixiao Kingdom. Even if we get some benefits today, the distance between our two countries is still far, and there is a Yaoguang in the middle, which is beyond the reach of a whip."
This sentence sounds like a refusal to interfere in the affairs of Chixiao Kingdom, but in fact it is also a request of his own.
What kind of benefits require being close to your own country? And other things cannot be included in the middle. Naturally, it is to expand the land area. The best gift must be a city, minerals and the like.
Tang Xicheng understood, so he smiled slightly and took out a piece of gold.
"The benefit does not have to be given by Chixiao Kingdom, it can also be something that Yaoguang Kingdom and Jiuguang Kingdom themselves have. Your Majesty, what do you think of this?"
What Tangxi City took out was a piece of gold, but the gold had obviously just been refined. It was very rough and even had impurities on it.
"Can gold of such purity be considered a benefit?"
"The gold that has just been mined is of course not as pure as the gold used in the palace. Your Majesty, please accept it."
Nie Ting'an finally came to his senses. He was leaning lazily on the chair, and straightened his back in an instant, his eyes locked on the dirty piece of gold.
"I just don't know where this gold comes from?"
"At the Ten Thousand Dynasties Meeting, the goddess will help His Majesty obtain the land where gold is produced. The premise is that Yaoguang Kingdom does not know about this treasure."
It was immediately clear that this mineral property was located between the Jiuguang Kingdom and the Yaoguang Kingdom.
Moreover, it is very possible that the Yaoguang Kingdom did not know that there was such a gold mine. Although they did not know why, they did not discover it, but the foreign prince found out about it.
But Nie Ting'an believed that he could not be lying to himself because he traveled thousands of miles to come here and established such a large circle.
"As long as the goddess can help get this place, I am willing to do my best to help with the affairs of Chixiao Kingdom."
Tang Xicheng smiled slightly, but did not answer his invitation, because he wanted to get the entire Jiuguang Kingdom and compete with his brothers with the strength of the country.
If Jiuguang Kingdom wants to get this gold mine, the prerequisite is the assistance of the ministers of Yaoguang Kingdom.
So after much thought, Nie Tinggan used a line he had buried for many years.
Not long after, a letter was received in the prime minister's house, and Wen Xiuting immediately put the letter away secretly.
"I didn't expect that my friends in Jiuguangguo haven't forgotten me yet."
Not long after Wen Xiuting received the letter, the queen received news from her brother.
The relationship between the queen and her father was not very good, but she was somewhat dependent on her brothers.
Nowadays, the prime minister's palace is under pressure, and the Mu family is becoming more and more proud. Wen Xiuting writes a letter to the palace, worried that the queen will be wronged in front of the noble concubine.
After crying for a while, the queen completely let down her guard and agreed to join forces with her brother to poison the emperor.
It's so poisonous that it won't kill the emperor, but it will make him addicted.
As long as the emperor is addicted to the things in the queen's hands, is he still afraid that the imperial concubine will stand out?
The queen was a little scared at first, but as the Wen family's influence in the court was eliminated one by one in the past two days, the queen finally became determined.
The moment the emperor fell ill, the Yellow Crane Tower took direct control of the entire harem and ordered the three princes to enter the palace to serve him.
"It's fine, why is father sick?"
The third prince followed his two brothers to the harem quickly, asking a hundred thousand questions along the way.
"I don't think you're sick. How can you be unconscious after just one meal?"
The second prince calmly analyzed it and felt that this matter had something to do with the Wen family.
The most anxious person at the moment was the eldest prince. The imperial concubine was imprisoned in the palace. The queen issued an order, saying that the Mu family had collaborated with others to harm the emperor.
So they sent people to trap the Mu family. Now the little princess doesn't know where she is, so what will happen if something happens to the little child.
"Don't talk so much now, let's go into the palace and have a look. My little sister is still in the palace!"
As soon as these words came out, the second prince suddenly stopped.
"What if we all go in and are trapped in the palace?"
The other two princes were stunned. What they said was true. They were all trapped. Who could help outside?
The queen was waiting anxiously in the palace, fearing that the three princes would make some noise.
As a result, before they could enter the palace, a frightened person hurriedly came to tell her that the three princes were fighting at the entrance of the palace.
"What are you talking about? Why did the three princes fight?"
The little palace maid shivered in fear, fearing that the queen would be displeased and beheaded.
"My servant doesn't know either. It's just that the three princes fought so fiercely that they all suffered a loss, especially the second prince. I heard that his legs were broken and he is lying aside now."
The queen was completely stunned. Didn't the three brothers have a good relationship some time ago? Why did the fight suddenly start?
Fortunately, the maid next to him came over and gave him a timely assist.
"It's not difficult to understand, Madam. They were brothers and sisters before, just for His Majesty's sake. Now His Majesty is suffering from an emergency. Who knows if there is any emergency? This battle for the throne is a matter of life and death!"
"But these three princes have always been stable, and they don't look like people who would do such a thing."
"Mother, please don't forget that Your Majesty suddenly fell seriously ill. These three princes do not have the ability to predict the future. It is impossible to prepare in advance. It is normal for them to have a few verbal quarrels on the way here. Otherwise, it may be a palace change. ”
The queen took a deep breath, and she was right.
Little did she know that her decision now would completely ruin her career as a queen. It was inevitable for the imperial concubine to show up at the Wan Dynasty meeting.
