Chapter 189 Your Majesty, Let's Team up to Trick Them?

When Ning Chen came out of Siyi Pavilion, it was already very late.

He rode Diao Chan and came to Jiaofangsi.

Yudie saw Ning Chen's nose was bruised and her face was swollen, and her eyes were red with distress. She quickly got the medicine and applied it to Ning Chen.

"Who beat Ning Lang like this? It's too much."

Ning Chen chuckled and said: "The fourth prince of Nanyue Kingdom, he was injured more seriously than me."

After taking the medicine, Ning Chen drank another bowl of Beauty.

This medicine is quite effective. When he worked with Kang Luo today, he could clearly feel that his strength had increased a lot.

"Yudie, my whole body hurts now, you are on top tonight."

"ah?"

Yudie was startled, and when she saw the evil smile on Ning Chen's lips, she immediately understood. She blushed and said softly: "Okay, I will listen to Ning Lang."

Ning Chen is usually on top, he likes to take the initiative.

But now my whole body hurts, that bitch Kang Luo was too cruel... I can only lie down and let Yudie ravage me tonight.

The next day, Ning Chen slept until three o'clock in the morning.

Yudie had people prepare delicious meals for him.

Ning Chen was having a meal when Feng Qi came to find him.

"Did you not go back until last night, or did you come to see me specifically?"

Feng Qizheng said: "I just came from the Supervision Department. His Majesty has an order for you to enter the palace immediately!"

Ning Chen felt a little guilty.

What does Your Majesty want with him at this time?

Ning Chen took a few mouthfuls of rice, then went out and rode to the palace.

Emperor Xuan would usually be in the Imperial Study Room at this time, dealing with memorials.

Ning Chen came to the imperial study room.

"My lord, see your majesty!"

"No need to pay tribute."

Emperor Xuan looked at Ning Chen who stood up and saw that his face was bruised and purple, and frowned slightly, "Does it hurt?"

"ah?"

Ning Chen was startled. When he came back to his senses, he realized that His Majesty was asking about the injuries on his face. He shook his head and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I'm fine!"

Emperor Xuan said: "I'd better go back and see the imperial doctor."

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I'm fine!"

Emperor Xuan glared at him, picked up a memorial and asked his father-in-law to give it to Ning Chen.

"Ning Chen, look at this."

Ning Chen took the memorial sent by Quan's father-in-law, opened it and read it for a while, and couldn't help but sneer.

"They're thinking shit."

The memorial was handed over by Li Hanru, and it contained the requirements of the South Vietnam Kingdom.

The meaning of the Nanyue Kingdom is that as long as Daxuan separates the Hundred Mile Corridor to them, then South Vietnam can guarantee that there will be no conflict with Daxuan within three years.

Emperor Xuan said with a cold face: "Many people are in favor of ceding territory and negotiating peace."

Ning Chen sneered, "Are they mentally ill?"

If he agrees with peace talks, how can he attack South Vietnam? If he didn't fight against South Vietnam, how could he be granted the title of marquis or prime minister? If he doesn't become a marquis or become a prime minister, how can he fight against the queen and the others?

"Your Majesty, cede hundreds of miles of territory in exchange for three years of peace... What about after three years? Will you continue to cede territory and seek peace? Nanyue is very ambitious, and I'm afraid that in the end even Daxuan Imperial City will be wanted."

Emperor Xuan looked at Ning Chen with relief on his face.

He patted the thick stack of memorials on the Long case and said, "These memorials are all for impeaching you."

Ning Chen's expression froze.

"You fought against the Fourth Prince of South Vietnam yesterday, but it caused a lot of people's displeasure."

Ning Chen looked contemptuous, "Are they afraid that if I beat Kang Luo, the peace talks will fail?"

"This spineless thing, I think, just eats too much and wears warm clothes. I'm afraid that if he fights, it will affect his well-fed life."

Ning Chen suddenly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the troops to go on an expedition, so that Nanyue can better experience the power of my Daxuan's military strength."

"I am willing to issue a military order. The Yellow Sands will wear golden armor in a hundred battles. South Vietnam will never return until it is defeated."

Emperor Xuan was moved and couldn't help but said: "If you don't break Nanyue, you will never return it."

"Ning Chen, I allow you to lead the troops on the expedition... I hope you can use practical actions to tell South Vietnam what is a king? What is a minister?"

"When you return victoriously, I will designate you as Xiaoyao Hou."

Ning Chen said loudly: "My lord, thank you for your kindness!"

Originally, he should have been made a marquis after returning from the Northern Expedition.

You guys, you guys, just wait for me. Ning Chen is already holding back his bad thoughts and has an idea.

"Stop kneeling and get up and talk."

Ning Chen stood up, glanced at Eunuch Quan, and said, "Your Majesty, can you ask Eunuch Quan to step aside for a moment?"

Father-in-law Quan's expression froze.

Emperor Xuan smiled and said, "Speak directly if you have anything to say. Quan Sheng has been serving me for more than ten years, and I can trust you."

Eunuch Quan was immediately proud and looked at Ning Chen with an arrogant expression, as if to say... Huh, is it great to be favored by His Majesty? Our family is also deeply trusted by His Majesty.

Ning Chen looked at Quan's father-in-law's arrogant expression and gave him a roll of his eyes.

Immediately, a wicked smile appeared on his face and he said: "Your Majesty, how about we work together to trick all the civil and military officials?"

Emperor Xuan was slightly startled, "What do you mean?"

Ning Chen said: "Your Majesty, we need money and food to fight this war... Let's ask the civil and military officials to raise donations? You see, they are all so fat and rich. They don't contribute to the war, so it's not too much to contribute some money, right?"

Emperor Xuan smiled and said: "During these years of cultivation, Daxuan's treasury is full, so you don't have to worry about money and food."

Ning Chen shook his head and said: "If you can use the money from the treasury, don't use it... I have food at home, so I don't feel panic."

"Aren't those weaklings clamoring for peace? Let's trick them... otherwise I'll feel uncomfortable."

Emperor Xuan wanted to laugh. In fact, not only Ning Chen felt uncomfortable, but he felt uncomfortable too.

"As the king of a country, how can I follow you and cause such nonsense?"

Ning Chen said with a serious face: "Sending troops to fight is a big deal, how can it be nonsense? Now that the treasury is empty and the country has no money, it is time for those weaklings to contribute."

Emperor Xuan was silent for a while, nodded slightly, and said: "Indeed, war is a major event... everyone should contribute."

"How exactly does it work?"

Ning Chen chuckled and said, "Aren't they going to negotiate peace with South Vietnam? I just said that I beat up the fourth prince of South Vietnam. Now Kang Luo is very angry and unwilling to negotiate."

"Finally, under the persuasion of Master Li and Master Shen, Kang Luo made a new request... In addition to dividing the Hundred Mile Corridor between them, he also had to compensate them with one million taels of silver."

"But the country is poor now and can't afford so much money? We need everyone to raise donations...Those weaklings, although their flesh hurts, they will definitely agree."

Emperor Xuan asked curiously: "What then?"

Ning Chen smiled and said: "Then let the South Vietnamese mission go away... Let's just say that the South Vietnamese country turned back and refused to acknowledge the money. It's too much of a lie... If you can't bear it, there is no need to bear it anymore. Your Majesty will just send me out when the time comes." ”

Emperor Xuan's face twitched, this move was too damaging!

Eunuch Quan stared at Ning Chen warily. This kid is too bad. You have to stay away from him in the future, otherwise he will defraud you of all your coffins.

Emperor Xuan said: "Then how to operate it specifically?"

Ning Chen talked a lot.

"Your Majesty, you only need to perform a play with me when the time comes."

Emperor Xuan nodded slightly, "Ning Chen, do you know that if this thing succeeds, you will be jealous of others."

Ning Chen said with a serious face: "For your majesty and for Daxuan, let alone bear some infamy, I am willing to do it even if it takes my life."

Emperor Xuan's face was filled with relief.

But Father-in-law Quan secretly pouted, he was so shameless, he really knew how to flatter someone when he had the opportunity.

"Okay, then I can rest assured and leave this matter to you!"

Ning Chen said: "My lord, take the order!"

After saying that, Ning Chen hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, I have one more thing, please agree with your Majesty."

"What's up?"

Ning Chen said: "I want to change to a smaller house."

Emperor Xuan frowned slightly, "Why, are you not satisfied with the house I rewarded you with?"

"The house your Majesty gave you is too big. Just hiring maids and servants to maintain and repair it costs less than ten thousand taels of silver every year... I am poor, and my annual salary is only a few hundred taels. I really can't afford it."

"I sincerely request your Majesty to grant me a smaller house."

Emperor Xuan was a little speechless, "Others think their house is too small, but you think it's too big?"

"I am just one person, and living in such a big house is empty. If I live in a smaller house, I can still share your worries for Your Majesty."

Emperor Xuan raised his lips slightly and said with a smile: "Okay! You can live in peace. I will send you some maids from the palace later. You don't have to pay for their wages. There is also maintenance and repairs, so you don't have to worry about them."

Ning Chen's eyes lit up slightly, he didn't have to pay for it himself, this was too nice.

"My lord, thank you for your kindness!"

Emperor Xuan smiled and said, "Do you have any other questions?"

Ning Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "Is there one more thing?"

"explain."

"Your Majesty, in such a big house, it seems too empty for me to live alone... I sincerely request your Majesty to pardon Yu Die, eliminate his slavery, and restore his freedom."

Emperor Xuan, who had been smiling just now, turned gloomy little by little.

Ning Chen secretly thought something was wrong.

Sure enough, Emperor Xuan said in a deep voice: "Get out of here!"

Ning Chen smiled bitterly in his heart, did he know this would be the case?

"I obey the decree, get out now!"

Ning Chen walked to the door but still refused to give up. He turned around and looked at Emperor Xuan, "Your Majesty, why don't you think about it?"

Emperor Xuan's face tightened and he said in a cold voice: "If you don't get out of here, I will reward you with thirty pieces of cake."

"Uh... Your Majesty, please calm down and get out of here."

Ning Chen ran away in a flash.

Emperor Xuan said angrily with a straight face: "This worthless thing is disobeying me for the sake of a prostitute."

Father-in-law Quan lowered his head and did not dare to say a word.

"Quansheng, have you seen the woman named Yudie?"

Quan Sheng was about to speak, but saw Ning Chen coming back again.

The corners of Emperor Xuan's mouth twitched, "Ning Chen, do you still have any rules? You really think I'm reluctant to deal with you, do you?"

Ning Chen's face was full of flattery and he said: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I want to tell your Majesty that the medicine is very useful and the effect is obvious."

Emperor Xuan's eyes lit up slightly, but he still kept a straight face and said angrily: "I know! Get out of here."

"My lord, resign!"

After Ning Chen left, Emperor Xuan showed a smile on his face.

"Quansheng, give me some of the medicine you gave Ning Chen last time."

Quan Sheng hurriedly said: "Yes!"

"Where did I just say?"

Quan Gong said impartially: "Your Majesty asked me if I have seen Miss Yudie?"

Emperor Xuan nodded, "Have you seen it?"

"I haven't seen this before!"

Emperor Xuan said in a deep voice: "Send someone to investigate and find out this woman's age, character, and behavior for me... Remember, do not let Ning Chen know about this secret investigation."

"Slave obeys the order!"

Ning Chen left the imperial study and walked out of the palace door dejectedly.

Although he knew that His Majesty would not agree to pardon Yudie's status as a slave, he still refused to give up and wanted to give it a try?

Emperor Xuan wanted to bring him and the Ninth Princess together.

But if you marry a princess, you can't take concubines... What will Yudie do then?

Yudie was his first woman, beautiful, gentle, well-behaved and sensible. Compared to the princess, he naturally liked Yudie more.

If he married the princess, he would lose Yudie.

But if he didn't marry the princess, Yudie would not be able to regain her freedom.

Ning Chen scratched his head in annoyance. What the hell was going on?

"Ning Chen?"

Suddenly, a voice sounded.

Ning Chen looked over and narrowed his eyes. It was the prince.

Since he came back from Beilin Pass and overthrew Zuo Xiang, the prince never came to see him again.

The prince still looked honest and kind, with a gentle smile... but Ning Chen had already become wary of him.
