"She is the one behind the scenes!"
Ling Ning was a little shocked after reading Duan Feng's confession, even beyond his expectation.
The person behind Duan Feng turned out to be Lin Xixue, Huang Huang's sister and the current eldest princess.
Ling Ning still remembered meeting the eldest princess when she was young.
Many years have passed, and Ling Ning's memory is a little blurry. He only remembers that she was a woman with a noble temperament, a pure heart, and a very beautiful woman.
When Lin Xixue met Ling Ning, she refused to let Ling Ning address her as eldest princess, instead calling her aunt.
It seems that the eldest princess and Ling Ning's father, Ling Xingshuang, have a bloody drama.
Ling Ning couldn't help but ask Mr. Sun, "Mr. Sun, how is the relationship between my father and this eldest princess?"
Mr. Sun replied: "Those are all events of the past. When I helped Emperor Liang ascend the throne, the eldest princess felt attached to him, and Emperor Liang also intended to form this marriage. But the master refused and married his wife. . It is said that because of this incident, the eldest princess has never married."
Ling Ning continued to read the confession.
In his confession, Duan Feng stated that he was ordered by the eldest princess Lin Xixue to come to Yanzhou to open a Caiyi Workshop. His purpose was to connect with Yang Huanhuan and pass back information about the Beidi County Prince's Palace.
The eldest princess did not ask Duan Feng to plot and harm the Beidi County Prince's Mansion, she was just looking for information.
As for Yang Huanhuan's identity, she was originally a female official in the palace. Because of her outstanding appearance, she was later regarded as a beauty by Emperor Liang and was rewarded to Ling Xingshuang for her meritorious service.
The eldest princess then attracted Yang Huanhuan and made her her spy.
Using Duan Feng's words, Yang Huanhuan was just an eyeliner.
However, in the system, Yang Huanhuan was in a state of hatred towards Ling Ning. This could not be faked. If it was not arranged by the eldest princess, then Yang Huanhuan and the Ling family had a grudge.
As for Yang Huanhuan's visit to Duan Feng today, she also reported to Duan Feng the situation of Ling Ning's return to the palace as usual.
However, in her confession, Duan Feng stated what was wrong with her after meeting Yang Huanhuan today. Yang Huanhuan seemed to be full of resentment and said: "Some things will end soon."
"It will be over soon?" Ling Ning read this sentence silently, seeming to understand something.
Subsequently,
Ling Ning said to Mr. Sun: "Temporarily imprison Duan Feng, and at the same time pretend to be Duan Feng and continue to deliver the news. By the way, this eldest princess does not live in Kyoto."
Mr. Sun replied: "She does not live in Kyoto. She is granted the title of Xizhou and has a settlement of 3,000 households."
"Xizhou? That's not far." Ling Ning smiled.
Xizhou is just south of Lizhou. Lizhou is long from east to west and narrow from north to south, so it only takes two or three days to drive from Yanzhou to Xizhou.
After Ling Ning takes Lizhou, the next stop will probably be Xizhou, where he can finally talk to the eldest princess.
"By the way, Mr. Sun, you go to Pang Ju and immediately issue a decree in the name of the Beidi County Prince's Palace to control the prices of grain, salt and other commodities in Yanzhou. You fully cooperate with this matter." Ling Ning remembered something. commanded.
After Mr. Sun agreed, he stepped back and left.
Ling Ning thought for a moment, got up and walked out of the study, then took the female guard with her to Yang Huanhuan's house.
He will not put danger around him. Now that he has found out the problem, he will solve it. He will not continue to have fun without solving it because he favors Yang Huanhuan and Yang Huanhuan is beautiful.
When I arrived at the house, I saw Yang Huanhuan arranging flowers in the yard.
"The prince is here!" When Yang Huanhuan saw Ling Ning, her face showed a hint of surprise, as if she was being favored, not pretending.
Ling Ning glanced at the system and saw that Yang Huanhuan still hated her for her close relationship.
Sure enough, knowing people, knowing faces, but not knowing hearts.
Ling Ning walked over and sat in front of Yang Huanhuan. Looking at the beautiful flowers, he smiled and said, "Duan Feng has already explained, what else do you have to say?"
Yang Huanhuan's eyes trembled fiercely and she immediately denied: "Your Majesty, who is Duan Feng? I don't know this person."
Ling Ning looked into Yang Huanhuan's eyes and said with a smile: "Duan Feng has already confessed, do you think it is necessary to lie? I didn't expect that the secret agent hidden in the Beidi County Prince's Palace is actually you!"
Yang Huanhuan's eyes flashed with panic, then anger.
The next moment, Yang Huanhuan raised her hand and stabbed Ling Ning's neck with the scissors.
Ling Ning had already expected it, blocked and grabbed it with her left hand, then twisted it, and the scissors fell down.
The female guard immediately stepped forward and held Yang Huanhuan down.
Ling Ning stood up and asked, "Why do you hate me?"
This is what Ling Ning is curious about.
Yang Huanhuan was pitiful and said: "Your Majesty, I am pregnant. For the sake of the child, please spare me this time. How could I hate the Prince? I was just blinded by lard and used by the eldest princess."
Ling Ning saw that she was unrepentant until her death, and sneered: "Would I not know whether you are pregnant or not? Find an excuse, and also find a good one."
As soon as these words came out, Yang Huanhuan was completely panicked.
I thought I could deceive Ling Ning and at least ask a doctor to take her pulse, but Ling Ning was so sure that she was not pregnant.
Knowing that he was in danger, Yang Huanhuan stopped pretending and shouted: "You clearly favored me, why did you throw me aside and ignore me! Why do you favor Ye Youran and Zhou Xuerou? What good are those two bitches! Why! Why!"
"Why do you want to kill me?" Ling Ning asked again.
Yang Huanhuan continued to yell: "My father was a captain in the Beiyou Army. Didn't he deduct some military pay? Why did you kill my father?"
"If you only love me, I won't take revenge, but why do you love those two bitches so much?"
"Why! Why!"
"Am I not beautiful enough?"
“…”
Only then did Ling Ning understand the reason. It turned out that there was still this level of grudge.
"Take it down, dispose of it, and bury it properly," Ling Ning said.
Yang Huanhuan was held down, and her roars gradually became smaller and smaller, and gradually disappeared.
The other beauties heard the sound and hid outside with different expressions, guessing what happened.
Ling Ning stood up and glanced at these beauties.
These beauties were all given by Emperor Liang. Is there anyone else who harbors dissatisfaction with them?
Obviously you can't tell just by looking at it.
It seems that I have to work hard at night and communicate with them in depth to know if they have any problems.
…
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, someone has surrendered!"
At this moment, Zhang Quan hurriedly came to report.
Ling Ning was stunned.
Unexpectedly, after rebelling against Liang, he finally met someone who came to surrender.
Ling Ning asked: "Who is it? Where is he?"
Zhang Quan replied: "He is outside the palace. General Huo arranged for someone to bring him here. This person's name is Duan Mu Shuang, and he is said to be Huang Yuanzhang's counselor!"
"Oh?" Ling Ning was surprised.
Huang Yuanzhang's adviser betrayed Huang Yuanzhang and came to seek refuge with him.
Is this a sincere surrender, or a trick to surrender?
Ling Ning was immediately interested and asked Zhang Quan to take him to the living room.
soon,
Ling Ning met Duan Mu Shuang.
He is about fifty years old, of medium build, smiling, and elegant. After seeing Ling Ning, he didn't panic at all and was calm and collected.
Duanmu Shuang was also observing Ling Ning.
He knew a little about the art of physiognomy, and when he took a closer look at Ling Ning today, he was immediately amazed.
Ling Ning was originally a dragon, not an emperor.
Therefore, if Jiaolong rebels, he will definitely die.
But Ling Ning actually survived the calamity of death and changed his destiny against the will of heaven. Purple energy came from the east and fulfilled the destiny of an emperor.
If the emperor orders an army to rise, is that treason?
That’s entrepreneurship!
