Chapter 493 Here We Have the Strongest Liquor and the Most Fierce Lady Boss
More than a month later, Ning Chen led the Ning'an Army to the Western Territory.
The Western Territory was desolate and dusty.
The Fourth Prince led people five miles out of the camp to greet him.
Seeing Ning Chen, the Fourth Prince turned over and dismounted, and came to meet him quickly.
As soon as they met, he gave Ning Chen a bear hug and said excitedly: "You are finally here. I have asked you to come to the Western Territory with me to fight."
Ning Chen smiled, "The Fourth Prince is well-informed?"
The Fourth Prince laughed, "What is well-informed? The Emperor's order was sent 800 miles away, and it was delivered early."
Ning Chen was slightly startled.
The Fourth Prince continued: "The Emperor's order allows me to fully cooperate with you... Let's go, let's go into the city first, we must get drunk!"
"To be honest, I didn't have a chance to drink with you in the capital. Today we must not return until we are drunk."
Ning Chen got on the horse, led the army, and followed the Fourth Prince to Xiguan City.
On the way, Ning Chen glanced at the Fourth Prince, "Does the Fourth Prince know the purpose of my coming to the Western Territory?"
The Fourth Prince looked at him in astonishment, "What did you call yourself just now?"
Ning Chen was stunned for a moment, "Your Majesty has made me the King of Zhenguo, and the Fourth Prince doesn't know?"
The Fourth Prince opened his mouth, his face full of shock, "You were made king?"
Ning Chen nodded.
The fourth prince was full of envy, "Except for a few kings of different surnames who were conferred titles when the country was founded, there has been no more since then."
"Ning Chen, your promotion speed is really enviable."
"Father really loves you. No wonder when we were in the capital, everyone said that you and father are more like father and son."
The fourth prince suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at Ning Chen, "Are you really father's illegitimate son?"
Ning Chen: "???"
"I'm going to marry the ninth princess soon."
The fourth prince smiled and said, "Congratulations! It's a pity that I can't return to the capital without an imperial edict, so I can't drink your wedding wine."
Ning Chen's mouth twitched, "I mean, if I was your majesty's illegitimate son, how could your majesty grant me a marriage with the ninth princess? ”
The fourth prince was stunned for a moment, "Yes! Then your promotion speed is even more enviable."
"But envy is envy, this is what you deserve... Breaking three cities in Nanyue in a row is incredible."
"I was shocked when I heard the news. I heard that the fourth prince of Nanyue was good at military strategy, but you beat him so hard that he couldn't even go home, hahaha...!"
Ning Chen looked at the fourth prince who was laughing heartily, and suddenly asked: "Does the fourth prince know what happened in the capital?"
The fourth prince was stunned and asked curiously: "What happened in the capital?"
Ning Chen narrowed his eyes and stared at him, saying: "The fifth prince killed his father and rebelled."
The fourth prince's face changed drastically, and he was shocked beyond words.
It took him a long time to come back to his senses, and asked in disbelief: "You said that the fifth prince was plotting to usurp the throne? How is this possible? He has been stupid and foolish since he was a child. I'm afraid he doesn't even know what the throne represents?"
Ning Chen looked away. It seems that the fourth prince really knows nothing, and his reaction cannot be faked.
"The fifth prince is pretending to be stupid, not really stupid."
The fourth prince was shocked, "Tell me quickly, what happened? The Western Territory is too far away from the capital, and the news is blocked. My mother repeatedly told me not to inquire about the news in the capital, and I just need to guard the Western Territory honestly... Such a big thing happened in the capital, and I didn't get any news at all."
Ning Chen sighed in his heart, this Concubine Zhao is very wise.
Concubine Zhao is the biological mother of the fourth prince.
The fourth prince returned to the capital during the Chinese New Year and said that Concubine Zhao repeatedly urged him to return to the Western Territory and not to stay in the capital.
She was protecting the fourth prince and keeping him away from the vortex of power.
Ning Chen told him what happened in the capital recently!
The fourth prince was stunned after listening!
Suddenly, he stretched out his hand to stop the army from moving forward, then turned over and dismounted, bowed to Ning Chen.
Ning Chen quickly turned over and dismounted and helped him up.
"What is the Fourth Prince doing?"
The Fourth Prince said seriously, "You saved my father, I kneel down and kowtow to you."
Ning Chen said, "As a minister, it is my duty to serve the king and protect him!"
The Fourth Prince said, "Ning Chen, my father did not spoil you wrongly... You did better than us princes."
"I never thought that the Fifth Prince would hide so deeply? This ruthless thing dared to kill his father and seize the throne. If I were in the capital, I would have to kill him."
The Fourth Prince was full of anger and cursed.
After cursing enough, he got on his horse and the army continued to move forward.
Back to Xiguan City.
The Western Prince asked the deputy general to take the Ning'an Army to station.
He took Ning Chen to drink.
Arrived in front of a restaurant.
Ning Chen glanced at it, "Shuangyue Restaurant... Shuangyue is for friends, the owner of this restaurant is quite knowledgeable."
The fourth prince laughed and said, "What? Shuangyue Restaurant, because the owner's surname is Yue."
Ning Chen's mouth twitched, a little embarrassed.
"Ning Chen, let me tell you... This restaurant has the strongest liquor and the most sturdy owner."
"Let's go, we won't go home until we're drunk today!"
Ning Chen and the fourth prince were about to cross the threshold, when suddenly one body turned to the left and the other to the right.
A chair flew out from inside and flew between the two of them.
Pan Yucheng behind him dodged it easily.
Feng Qizheng kicked the chair directly and broke it into pieces.
Immediately afterwards, Ning Chen and the fourth prince retreated at the same time.
Because three figures flew out from inside and fell to the ground.
"You dare to come to my shop and act wild. You drank two taels of cat urine and don't know who you are?"
A woman with her sleeves rolled up and her hands on her hips came out.
This woman is at least 1.7 meters tall, with a curvy figure, delicate features, and healthy wheat-colored skin.
When she saw the fourth prince, she was slightly stunned, and then said: "Are they here?"
The fourth prince smiled and hummed, pointing to the three men groaning in pain on the ground, "What's going on?"
The woman curled her lips, "A few idle guys pretended to be drunk and wanted to eat a free meal... They came several times."
The fourth prince said: "Come on, hand them over to the government office and let them stay in the prison for a few days to sober up."
Ning Chen smiled and said: "It's too comfortable to sober up in the prison... Take them to the army!"
The fourth prince was slightly stunned, "Yes, why didn't I think of it?"
"Come on, send them to the new recruits camp."
"Yes!"
When they heard that they were going to be taken to the army, the three people couldn't pretend anymore, and they got up and knelt on the ground.
"Please spare my life, sir. I will pay for the wine right now. I will pay right now!"
"Please spare my life, sir. I have an 80-year-old mother and a 3-year-old son."
Ning Chen laughed when he heard it. "Since I have old people and children to take care of, I can get military pay when I go to the military camp. If I die, I can get resettlement money. It's a good thing. It's better than you eating and waiting to die."
"Take him away!"
This kind of idle and troublemaker is a waste of air when he is alive... Pull him to the battlefield and be a cannon fodder. If he dies, he can leave some money for his family.
