Chapter 831 Daxuan Is Not a Plaything in Someone's Hands

No wonder everyone was shocked, that was the throne and represented supreme power.

In this world, who doesn’t want to sit on the dragon’s throne?

For that dragon chair, father and son turned against each other, and brothers killed each other. Which emperor's dragon chair was not stained with the blood of his relatives and friends?

But Ning Chen actually refused, which was unbelievable.

"Actually, it's okay to say no!"

Pan Yucheng said suddenly.

Chen Chong and others looked at him in astonishment.

Pan Yucheng said: "The new emperor crossed the river and demolished the bridge. Daxuan is now surrounded by wars, with external and internal troubles... Instead of fighting desperately on the battlefield, it is better to stay in Xuanwu City and be a free prince!"

Everyone was silent because what Pan Yucheng said made sense.

Feng Qizheng said: "Having said that, now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity... The Supreme Emperor has issued an edict. With Ning Chen's prestige among the people and the army, it is justifiable and justified for him to sit on the dragon throne, and everyone expects him to do so."

Gao Ziping nodded slightly, "I also think that Ning Chen is more suitable to be emperor than the new emperor."

Chen Chong said: "Okay, Ning Chen is smarter than all of us combined. Now that he has decided, he must have his own thoughts... We just support him unconditionally!"

Several people nodded silently.

Feng Qizheng's face was filled with regret, "My reputation as the number one chicken head in Daxuan is gone...Ning Chen, how about you make me the number one chicken head in Xuanwu City?"

The corners of Ning Chen's mouth twitched violently several times.

"Okay, from now on, I will make you the number one chicken head in Xuanwu City."

Feng Qi was happy, "Thank you City Lord Ning."

Ha... Ning Chen said in his heart that when you know the meaning of this sentence in the future, I'm afraid you won't thank me, but will take a leg off me.

Ning Chen waved his hand and said: "That's it! We should eat and drink and don't take anything to heart... As for Daxuan, it has nothing to do with us."

.......

The shadow guard went to Ning Chen to say goodbye the next day!

Ning Chen rejected the throne, and he had to rush back immediately to inform Emperor Xuan about this.

Ning Chen didn't hold him back and sent someone to send him out of the city.

And he himself came to the nursery.

A nursery school has been built in Xuanwu City. Homeless children and children from poor families can come here to study for free.

Here, you can not only learn poems and songs, but also learn strange skills.

The skilled craftsmen in the arsenal will take turns teaching the children.

What he lacks now is not literati, but talents who are good at strange skills.

People in this world are actually not stupid at all, they just don’t have a stage.

Ning Chen provided a stage for those skilled craftsmen to perform freely... As a result, a few days ago they improved the double-barreled shotgun based on Ning Chen's original one, and it was more powerful than what Ning Chen designed.

Ning Chen only gave them one sentence: just mess around and research as they please, don't worry about the materials.

As long as you can make the firearm more powerful, Ning Chen will not be stingy, he will be promoted to a higher position and given numerous rewards.

What's the most expensive these days? Of course it’s talent!

Ning Chen walked around the nursery and was about to go home. As soon as he went out, he met Wu Tiezhu who came to look for him.

Wu Tiezhu got off his horse and ran over with excitement on his face.

Ning Chen smiled. Wu Tiezhu is now the backbone of the Ning'an Army and usually stays in the military camp. Although Ning Chen often goes to the military camp, the number of encounters is very few.

"Brother Zhuzi, what are you so happy about?"

When there are people, they have a clear distinction between superiority and inferiority.

In private, Ning Chen still calls him Brother Zhuzhu, and Wu Tiezhu calls him Xiao Chen.

Wu Tiezhu said excitedly: "Xiao Chen, the water is flowing, the water is flowing..."

Ning Chen was stunned for a moment, then he immediately understood, "Did the water from Baishan River be diverted here?"

Wu Tiezhu nodded repeatedly.

Ning Chen's eyes lit up, "Let's go and have a look!"

The two got on their horses and ran away.

Ning Chen's figure appeared at the top of the city.

Looking around, a big river leads into the distance, like a giant dragon that sees its head but not its tail.

The moat is filled with water.

Ning Chen's face was filled with happiness.

I originally wanted to connect the water, but I couldn't do it until the end of the year.

But in order to connect the water as quickly as possible, Ning Chen mobilized all the more than 50,000 laborers in the city, and also used explosives... When encountering difficult-to-excavate places, he directly used explosives to blow them up.

The river is more than twenty meters wide and seven or eight meters deep, so the water flow is very fast.

There are ten gates along the way, which lead directly to the main channel of Baishan River.

On weekdays, these gates are blocked, but during the rainy season they will be opened to release floods, so that Xuanwu City will not be flooded.

This river plays a great role in Xuanwu City.

Not only has it increased the defense of Xuanwu City, but it has also greatly improved the water supply problem for the people in the city. Even if there is a drought next year, they will not have to worry about running out of water.

Yuan Long came over with Ning Xing.

Ning Xing contributed a lot to being able to connect the water so quickly.

Ning Chen said: "Let's move back to the city lord's mansion in the future!"

Ning Xing said awkwardly: "Wait a little longer! The water has just been opened, and there are still many places that need to be improved... Although several waterways have been dug in the city, they are still not enough, and a few more have to be planned.

The previous waterways also need to be reinforced to prevent rising water from flooding the farmland during the rainy season. "

Ning Chen nodded slightly, "Okay, it's up to you. Call Ning Mao in the evening, and I'll hold a celebration banquet for you!"

Ning Xing hurriedly said: "Yes!"

Ning Chen saw that he was embarrassed and nervous in front of her, so he smiled and said, "Okay, you go and do your work first!"

Ning Xing hurriedly saluted, then turned and left.

Ning Chen looked at Yuan Long and Wu Tiezhu and asked, "You have all heard that Emperor Xuan asked me to go back and inherit the throne, right?"

Yuan Long and Wu Tiezhu nodded.

"Xiao Chen, didn't you refuse?"

Ning Chen sneered and said in a deep voice, "General Chen fought for Daxuan all his life, Tong Yuanzhou protected the southern border for more than ten years, we fought bloody battles to protect Daxuan...but how embarrassed was I when I left Daxuan?

We sacrificed our lives to protect Daxuan, and now, the war is raging and full of holes.

Daxuan is not a toy in the hands of someone...Just because I don't sit on this throne doesn't mean I will watch the Daxuan we protect collapse."

Yuan Long and Wu Tiezhu looked at each other with joy in their eyes.

They hope that Ning Chen will take the throne, and the soldiers and people of Daxuan are also looking forward to it.

Ning Chen's taking that position is truly what everyone wants.

Wu Tiezhu said, "So your rejection of the emperor was fake?"

Ning Chen nodded slightly, "Only you two know about this matter at present.

It will take some time for the news that I refuse to inherit the throne to spread.

We still have one month to prepare... Yuan Long, within one month, I want you to lead the Ning'an Army to escape."

Yuan Long was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean, please tell me clearly, Your Majesty!"

Ning Chen said word by word, "In fact, it is to cover up the truth and let everyone know that the Ning'an Army and the Modao Army are in Xuanwu City... In fact, within one month, they will leave the city in batches and wait for me at the border of Wu State.

The Right Court King of Tuoluo State led 30,000 troops to station outside Beilin Pass. We will cross the grassland, first attack the Royal Court of Tuoluo State, and then kill to Beilin Pass to block the retreat of the Right Court King."
