Chapter 1120 Reality Is Often More Exciting than Fiction
Xiao Yanxi has a gentle and calm temperament, and rarely gets naughty, so Ning Chen naturally cooperates vigorously.
"This strength is just right..." Xiao Yanxi said, taking the tea from Feng Qizheng, and then spoke slowly.

When Xiao Yanxi finished speaking, everyone was stunned with shock.
Leian couldn't help but complain: "This is so exciting, you wouldn't dare to write it like this in the script, right?"
Yuan Long nodded in agreement, "A powerful official like Zong Sibai was killed by his own concubine and housekeeper... It's unbelievable."
Feng Qizheng said: "And that Kang Xiao actually killed his own child... The most awesome thing is that Yun Niang, a cheap concubine, actually climbed into Zhang Tianlun's bed."
Ning Chen looked gloating and said: "Reality is often more exciting, more bizarre, and more bloody than the storybook.
I really didn’t expect that the East Territory would be so lively during this period?
This Yun Niang is really awesome. She can manipulate so many powerful men at her fingertips. I almost admire her.
So, Kang Luo has now led his troops back to South Vietnam? "
Xiao Yanxi nodded, "Kang Luo was forced by Zhang Tianlun and directly sent troops to attack... But Kang Luo did not dare to take action seriously. The 140,000 troops he had now were crucial and he did not dare to suffer casualties.
Therefore, there were several fights, but they were actually small fights with few casualties.
In the end, luckily it was settled... Kang Xiao led the 40,000 South Vietnamese army to stay, and they were actually hostages.
Kang Luo will lead an army of 100,000 people back to South Vietnam. Once the situation in South Vietnam is calmed down, he will have to lead his army back to help Zhang Tianlun deal with you.
You'd never guess who came up with this idea? "
Ning Chen smiled and said, "Yun Niang?"
Xiao Yanxi nodded, "Yes, this idea was given to Zhang Tianlun by Yun Niang."
Ning Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, "This Yun Niang is really not simple, she can actually interfere in Zhang Tianlun's government affairs.
Xiao Xixi, ask your people to check it out for me. I always feel that there is more to this Yun Niang’s identity than what appears on the surface. "
Xiao Yanxi nodded, "Okay!"
Ning Chen couldn't help but gloat, "Kang Luo must be mad, right? He probably never dreamed that he would be manipulated by Zhang Tianlun."
Xiao Yanxi smiled and said: "He had no choice...The Emperor of South Vietnam abandoned the people and ran away, which caused a great loss of public support.
Those who win the hearts and minds of the people win the world. At this time, someone steps up to appease the people and wins the hearts and minds of the people... who can easily overthrow the emperor of South Vietnam.
By that time, Kang Luoke would be embarrassed...the new people in power would definitely not be able to tolerate him.
Therefore, he had to return to South Vietnam as soon as possible, and King Qin would protect him and stabilize the situation.
But this is nothing? Hearing that the news of the fall of the Nanyue Imperial City reached Xiangzhou, Kang Luo almost fainted on the spot. When he heard that Kang Baobao was captured by you, Kang Luo even vomited blood on the spot. "
Ning Chen tightened his lips, but couldn't hold it back and laughed loudly: "Hahaha..."
Feng Qizheng and others also laughed like pigs.
The East Territory is really too lively, and all kinds of bloody things happen one after another... It's more lively than the Chinese New Year, and it's more fun than the Chinese New Year.
The more chaos there is in the east, the better it will be for them.
When he thought of Kang Luo being so incompetent and furious that he vomited three liters of blood, Ning Chen couldn't stop laughing. He couldn't stop at all... His stomach ached from laughing.
Yuan Long said: "So, there are only 180,000 troops in the Eastern Region now... Wouldn't now be a good time to attack Zhang Tianlun?"
Ning Chen tried his best to stop laughing and nodded slightly, "It is indeed a good time... but Lao Pan's ability cannot command an army of 150,000 in battle.
Besides, 150,000 vs. 180,000, the opponent can still rely on the strength of the city wall, so the chance of winning is not great. "
Lei An said: "Aren't the two generals Qi Yuanzhong and Mu Anbang gone?"
Ning Chen sighed: "It's okay for the two of them to command a battle of less than 50,000 people, but it's not a big deal for more than 50,000 people... But it allows them to attack tentatively. If the situation is not right, they can withdraw their troops. Zhang Tianlun doesn't dare to pursue them anyway. .
After a while, the king sent a message and ordered to Lao Pan and the others. "
Xiao Yanxi suddenly said: "Actually, I don't have to rush to give this order. If we wait... there might be a surprise."
Ning Chen looked at her in confusion, "What surprise?"
Xiao Yanxi said: "Yun Niang gave Zhang Tianlun an idea to detain Kang Xiao and the 40,000 South Vietnamese army... Why do you think she had to keep Kang Xiao?
A scumbag like Kang Xiao, who shows no mercy at all, will never understand what a mother can do for her child? "
Ning Chen's eyes flashed, "Are you saying that Yun Niang will take revenge on Kang Xiao?"
Xiao Yanxi nodded, "Definitely... Women have a strong desire for revenge, especially for their children, and they will do anything.
This Yun Niang is very capable... maybe it won't be long before? Kang Xiao and his 40,000 troops would die in Xiangzhou. "
Ning Chen nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Then we will wait and see... There is no rush to attack the eastern border. Anyway, Kang Luo will definitely not have time to return to Xiangzhou within a year. When he returns, I will have enough time to lead the army to attack."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Yuan Long, "Has Emperor Gao Liguo replied to your letter?"
Yuan Long shook his head and said: "Not yet, it's only half a month... Even if I get a reply, I have to wait a few more days."
Ning Chen frowned slightly and looked at Xiao Yanxi, "Do you have any news here?"
Xiao Yanxi nodded slightly... He did find out some news, but it wasn't good news.
So, she didn't say it right away, but told Ning Chen about the situation in the East Territory to make him feel better, and then told him the bad news.
Ning Chen's eyes lit up, "What did you find out?"
Xiao Yanxi said: "My people can confirm that Zhong Xiuwen led people through Qianfeng City... but Zhong Xiuwen did not go to Rufeng City.
In other words, Zhong Xiuwen disappeared on the road between the two cities.
My people left Qianfeng City and tried to investigate southward, and they really found some things... that is, the traces left by the passing army.
But they found a place called Huanglingpo, which was blocked by the Gaoli Kingdom army... So, I don't know whether the traces found before were left by General Zhong and his men, or by the Gaoli Kingdom army?"
Ning Chen Turning back, he came to the map and found Huanglingpo, his eyes flashed slightly, "This place is neither a major transportation route nor a border fortress... Why did Gaoli Kingdom block this place?"
Xiao Yanxi said: "Gaoli Kingdom claims to be training troops... This place is indeed suitable for training troops."
Ning Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Something is wrong. The terrain between Qianfeng City and Rufeng City is flat, and you can train troops everywhere. Why do you have to run so far?"
Yuan Long and others nodded one after another. It was indeed wrong. This place was too far away from the two cities... The long journey consumes a lot of food. Isn't this a pure waste of food and grass?
Ning Chen said: "Xiao Xixi, send someone to continue investigating. There is definitely something strange in this place."
Xiao Yanxi nodded slightly and said softly: "Don't worry, leave it to me!"
Ning Chen showed a gentle smile. Many times he was able to seize the initiative, thanks to Xiao Yanxi's intelligence.
But soon, his eyes became cold, and he said to himself: "Gao Liguo, you must not do things that will destroy yourself... Otherwise, no one can save you."
