Almighty Nongmen Phoenix

Chapter 477;
"Win the Han family?"

Mr. Zhou smiled and shook his head.

"The Han family has always been ambitious. Winning them over is undoubtedly seeking skin from a tiger. When I let you contact the Han family, it was nothing more than hoping that you could win some resources from them."

Hearing this, King Ning frowned again. Of course he knew that the Han family was ambitious, but the Han family was powerful, which was what he needed most at the moment.

"Your Highness, you should still remember what the Han family said a few days ago?"

"Duke Zhen is also in contact with them now."

"Isn't it good? Let's work together."

King Ning, he is still a little too naive, or he still believes in Duke Zhen from the bottom of his heart, thinking that Duke Zhen is his greatest reliance.

"Your Highness, no one is as powerful as yourself."

"Think about how fast the Han family will develop in the future if they get the method of making snowflake salt and still have so many salt mine resources in their hands."

"At that time, even if you get their support and successfully ascend to the throne, will you be restricted by them like the current emperor?"

King Ning was silent.

"Let's talk about Duke Zhen. He is your uncle. You can trust him, but you can't trust him completely. Have you forgotten his attitude towards you after the empress was placed under house arrest a while ago?"

"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about how Duke Zhen treats the emperor after you ascend to the throne in the future?"

"If the emperor doesn't act according to his wishes, he will secretly resist."

"Why does he want to support you up? You should be very clear. If you succeed in sitting in that seat in the future, won't you also be under his control?"

"If you come to the same situation as the emperor today, will he support another obedient one?"

Hearing this, King Ning was shocked, yes, Duke Zhen supported him just to control him as a puppet.

Just like how he supported his father back then, now that his father doesn't listen to him, he is trying to overthrow him and support him to the top.

He wants to be the emperor, that is the real emperor, not someone else's puppet.

Therefore, whether it is the Han family or the Duke of Zhen, these people can only be used, not really reused.

"Mr. Zhou's words are like enlightenment. This king has been taught."

King Ning stood up and bowed to Mr. Zhou, then asked, "In Mr. Zhou's opinion, what should I do?"

"Be double-faced."

"Why two sides?"

"On the surface, you still have to maintain a good relationship with the Han family and Lord Zhen Guo, but in fact, the team you want to stand on is the emperor's side."

"You know, the emperor is your father, you are father and son, and only if he passes the seat to you, it will be justified."

"Although Zhen Guogong and the Han family have the ability to support you, the price they will pay will be very high. Besides, judging from the current situation, it is hard to say whether they will succeed in the end."

"What do you think, Your Highness?"

King Ning thought about it, the Han family can use it, but they can't reuse it, and even need to deal with it directly in the future.

The resources in their hands must fall into their own hands.

As for Duke Zhen, let alone, with the lessons learned from his father, it is naturally impossible for him to trust Duke Zhen wholeheartedly.

But at present, it is indeed not the case that the queen will turn against him, and it is necessary to get the military power from him bit by bit.

However, on his father's side, he was also a little unconfident.

"Does your Highness feel that the emperor's attitude towards you is not as good as before?"

"Ah."

King Ning nodded, but he didn't show any shyness at all.

"His Royal Highness, have you ever thought about the reason?"

"Father probably thinks that this king is on the same side as Lord Zhen, and Lord Zhen will continue to support this king and replace him, so he doesn't want to see this king."

"Yes, what if you secretly drew a line with the Zhen Guogong faction?"

Hearing this, King Ning frowned and said, "I think so, but can my father believe it?"

"Of course you can't believe it, but if you do some things, the emperor will be able to see the clues. Even if you don't believe it, it won't completely put you in the Zhen Guogong's faction, right?"

"Princess Wanfu is deeply trusted by the emperor. If you convey some attitude to the emperor through her, the effect will be very good."

"As I said before, Princess Wanfu is a man of great ability, and he is definitely a first-class existence in any country."

"In addition, she is a woman, so many bad problems can be avoided, so almost all those in power will choose to make friends unconditionally and give her supreme favor."

"Your Highness, if you are in the position, you have to treat her like a guest. This will be of great benefit to you. You don't have to worry about her reputation being too high and threatening your country. It is more important to make good friends with such people than to make bad friends."

"The unhappiness you had with her is nothing to say, so there's no need to keep thinking about it."

King Ning fell into deep thought again, and had to say what Mr. Zhou said, which made sense. He had also seen Lu Yaoyao's ability.

Such a person is indeed very capable, and she can be completely trusted, just like Emperor Hongwen trusted her in every way.

"Mr. is right, but this king is a little narrow-minded."

"Your Highness is still young, and it's normal to be high-spirited."

"Mister, what attitude should the king take tomorrow to see Princess Wanfu?"

"Naturally, we should make friends, and tell all about the Han family's cooperation with you. Of course, don't forget to express your attitude of standing on her and Emperor Hongwen's side."

"Show sincerity first, so that we can talk about the follow-up slowly."

King Ning nodded again.

The next day, after eating breakfast early in the morning, he went out to Prince Jin's Mansion.

Not long after, the two arrived at Chengyuan Villa together.

Because he was going to meet King Ning today, Lu Yaoyao did not go to the mountain, but told Qiu Yu to go there on his behalf.

Xu Qingqing is now completely in love with the free life in the villa, and instead of staying in the yard all day long, she went to the mountain with Qiu Yu.

"Miss, Prince Jin and Prince Ning are here."

"Please come in."

Not long after, the two came in from the outside.

"I have met His Royal Highness King Jin, and I have seen His Highness King Ning."

When she saluted, King Ning hurriedly avoided it, and said with a smile, "I can't afford the princess's gift, but you are my future emperor's aunt."

Hearing this, King Jin said with a smile; "It seems that this is the case, they are all from my own family, so don't make these vain rituals."

As soon as he said this, Lu Yaoyao gave him a surprised look, but soon returned to normal.

King Jin's attitude is a bit wrong.

Thinking in her heart, she glanced at King Ning, smiled and invited the two to sit down.

"His Royal Highness Prince Ning, you have already entered the court to discuss matters. Are you busy every day? Why do you have time to come to my mountainous place today?"

"The princess is still dissatisfied with the fact that the king didn't help the Lu family back then."

With that said, King Ning stood up, bowed his hands to Lu Yaoyao, and said, "I did something wrong at the beginning, and I came here this time mainly to apologize to the princess."

"It's just that the king listened to the slander and didn't dare to ask the princess for forgiveness. It's just that this sentence of sorry has been hidden in the king's heart for a long time, and he took this opportunity to say it today."
