In the living room.
Ling Ning sat in the main seat, while Yue Jinlian saluted and fell in front of Ling Ning.
"Mrs. Pan, please get up quickly. No big gift is needed."
Ling Ning quickly stretched out her hand to help Yue Jinlian. As she got closer, she could still smell the faint fragrance coming from her body.
Observing from a high position, one can still see the capital rising on Yue Jinlian's chest.
Thinking back then, she was able to raise Wang Yuyan and Wang Qingyan only with her abundant capital.
Yue Jinlian frowned slightly. Did she hear it wrong? Why did the Northland County King call himself Mrs. Pan?
My name is Yue Jinlian, not Pan Jinlian.
I guess I heard it wrong.
In addition, seeing Ling Ning so gentle and peaceful, her worries dissipated a bit.
It is also an honor for my daughter to follow such a big man.
Just look at the charming look on my daughter's face, and you know you were happy last night.
It's not as pitiable as myself, marrying a disgusting man who is too weak-tempered to dare to resist the family, and only dares to vent his anger on his wife.
At this moment,
Wang Yuyan introduced again: "Your Majesty, this is my uncle's cousin, named Wang Teng."
"Wang Teng, the little man, pays homage to the prince. I have admired the prince's reputation for a long time, and I have been fascinated by him for a long time. I learned that the second aunt was coming, so I followed him." Wang Teng pretended to be excited.
Ling Ning took a deep look at Wang Teng and said with a smile: "You are Wang Teng. I have heard of your name!"
When I went out for a walk today, I not only had a meal, but also got to know the Qilinzi of the Wang family. It turned out that he was the brains behind Wang Xianchun.
In my previous life, I heard about Wang Teng, who had the appearance of a great emperor.
In this life, I saw Wang Teng look like a prince.
Sure enough, everyone named Wang Teng is a talented person.
"Prince Miao Zan, all the false reputations gained by this villain are due to praise from friends." Wang Teng replied.
Ling Ning said: "Some people are not as famous as meeting them, but Mr. Wang is more famous than meeting him, so I don't think it is flattery, Mr. Wang, there is no need to belittle yourself."
"The villain has taken note of it," Wang Teng said obediently.
Subsequently,
Yue Jinlian and Wang Teng sat up again, then stood up to say goodbye.
…
Return to the palace.
Wang Teng went to Wang Xianchun and said with a smile: "Father, our plan was successful..."
Unexpectedly, Wang Xianchun looked worried and said: "Teng'er, something happened. I'm afraid our plan will not succeed."
"What's wrong? Ling Ning has favored Wang Yuyan and Wang Qingyan and is very satisfied with the two women. The crisis in our Wang family has been resolved!" Wang Teng said.
Wang Xianchun explained: "Your brother was just carried back and his legs were broken. The murderer was Ling Ning's guard."
"This happened!" Wang Teng was shocked. He never expected such a thing to happen, but Wang Teng quickly calmed down and said: "Father, don't worry, I'm going to see my brother. Ling Ning broke his leg." , may not be a warning to us.”
After saying that, Wang Teng immediately went to find his brother.
After a stick of incense, Wang Teng left and returned.
"How is it?" Wang Xianchun asked.
Wang Teng consoled him: "Father, I already understand the whole story. The reason why Ling Ning broke his brother's legs was because he offended Ling Ning by speaking rudely, so Ling Ning punished him."
"I see, this bastard actually lied to me!" Wang Xianchun said angrily.
Wang Teng continued: "Father, my brother made rude remarks and angered Ling Ning. Although this will not directly destroy our plan, it will affect our status in Ling Ning's heart. The child feels that we must find a way to resolve this grudge and let Ling Ning calms down and makes Ling Ning trust us more, so that we can achieve our plan."
"Ah? Do you want to destroy Liang'er? He is your brother!" Wang Xianchun replied.
Wang Teng said: "Of course I don't want to abolish my brother. My father is too worried. What I mean is..."
Immediately, Wang Teng whispered a few words in Wang Xianchun's ear.
After Wang Xianchun heard this, he reluctantly said: "Are you really going to do this?"
"Is it difficult for my father, or is it unkind? But all this is for the Wang family." Wang Teng asked.
Wang Xianchun opened his mouth and could only say: "Okay! I will transfer your second uncle away."
After saying that, Wang Xianchun moved his mouth. Although he didn't make a sound, Wang Teng knew that his father was cursing.
How could Wang Teng not know his father's little thoughts?
I have long been salivating over my second sister-in-law.
Not to mention his father, Wang Teng is not like this.
But for the Wang family and for myself, I can give up these good things!
…
Zheng Yichuan died in battle, and news of Suizhou's fall reached Kyoto.
After hearing this, Emperor Liang almost fainted.
The Suizhou army numbered 70,000 and was on the defensive side. They were defeated in less than half a month, and even the leading general Zheng Yichuan died in the battle.
Is it that Ling Ning's Beiyou Army is too powerful, or is Zheng Yichuan too rubbish?
"Zheng Yichuan is a waste, and he ignores my respect for him!"
Emperor Liang cursed angrily and blamed Zheng Yichuan. If Zheng Yichuan hadn't died, military law would have been involved.
This is the tragedy of having no one in the court. Huang Yuanzhang, the lord of hundreds of battles, also suffered a defeat and suffered greater losses, but he was safe and sound.
At this time, there were many civil and military ministers in the palace. When they heard Emperor Liang's angry roar, no one could explain for a dead man.
"Ling Ning has occupied Suizhou. When Suizhou is stabilized, where will his next target be?"
"Mozhou to the east of Suizhou, or Yinzhou to the south of Suizhou?"
"Even Lizhou?"
"We must not lose another inch of land!"
"My dear friends, do you have a good plan? We must destroy Ling Ning at any cost!"
Emperor Liang looked at the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs and asked.
The civil and military ministers looked at each other. Now that Ling Ning's morale has been established and his momentum is overwhelming, it will be very difficult to eliminate Ling Ning.
There are still 700,000 to 800,000 troops in Daliang, but in the south we have to guard against Nanzhao, in the north there is Dazhao, and there are bandits along the coast, so there are many places where we can't hold up even if we have more troops.
If an army of 300,000 to 400,000 people is gathered to conquer Lingning, bad things will probably happen in other places.
At this moment,
Zhongshu ordered Wang Xuzhi to come out, so that Liang Huang's problem could not be left alone.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have to admit that Ling Ning has already had some conditions. It is necessary to gather enough troops to annihilate it in one fell swoop. It is difficult to achieve a force of more than ten or two hundred thousand troops now. But the available troops in the country are now limited, so My suggestion is to send envoys to negotiate peace with the Kingdom of Zhao, so that the 300,000 troops at the western border can be mobilized. In order to resist foreign aggression, we must first pacify the interior!" Wang Xuzhi replied.
The servant Ouyang Niuma also came out and agreed: "Your Majesty, I also agree with Lord Wang's suggestion. If you want to destroy Ling Ning, you must send a large army, with a minimum strength of more than 400,000, divided into four groups, enough to annihilate him. ! If we don’t remove this cancer, it will cause even greater harm in the future.”
However, Shangshu Ling Xie Guangyu raised concerns: "The great ambition of the Zhao Kingdom is so ambitious, how easy is it to negotiate for peace? The other party will inevitably raise the price."
"Then what advice does Xie Shangshu have?" Wang Xuzhi glanced at Xie Guangyu.
The disagreement between the Wang and Xie families is a matter known to everyone in the world, and now it has become a problem again.
Xie Guangyu snorted coldly and said: "Your Majesty, I feel that to capture the thief first, capture the king. If Ling Ning can be killed, then the Beiyou Army will have no worries!"
As soon as this remark came out, it immediately aroused discussion among civil servants.
"Yes, if we can kill Ling Ning and then recruit Anbei Youjun, this is the fastest way!"
"It's very difficult to kill Ling Ning!"
"You have to try it only if it is difficult. Once you succeed, it will be of greatest benefit to Daliang."
“…”
Emperor Liang frowned.
Didn't he know that assassinating Ling Ning was the best way?
But the last time the Divine Guards were sent to assassinate him, they failed, and no one came back. This shows how much Ling Ning attaches great importance to his own safety.
suddenly,
I don't know who it was, but whispered: "If the eldest princess is willing to take action, she can kill Ling Ning!"
As soon as these words came out, the discussion in the hall stopped abruptly.
Emperor Liang was stunned for a moment, and then knocked his favorite teacup and inkstone to the ground.
Who doesn't know now that the eldest princess Lin Xixue is a taboo of Emperor Liang and must not be mentioned!
