Chapter 448

Fang Chuning smiled and said nothing, but his mood was very dignified. Han Ziqi wanted to join hands with Beiman both inside and outside of what he said. They still don't know how the Sangnan royal family and Beiman are connected. Sangnan raised his troops again, and the people would suffer unspeakably again. It had just been two years of peace and stability.

Ningzhou iron cavalry and Yanyang must unite to fight against the enemy.

The Ningzhou iron cavalry is the strongest army in Yanyang, but without the support of food, grass and military supplies from all over the territory, it will be difficult to fight a protracted war with the Beiman.

But the imperial court and the Ningzhou iron cavalry could not be of the same mind. The current dilemma is that the Yuwen royal family and the Xie family brothers must die. For Chuning, this is not a multiple-choice question.

However... Xie Xun wants to become emperor.

It's even harder!

As far as the new policies implemented by Ningzhou affect the fundamental interests of the clan, it will also trigger an invisible war.

It's so difficult!
This imperial court is riddled with holes.

"If the old order is not overthrown, it will be difficult to build a new order." Fang Chuning said softly, "Yanyang really needs a fierce and brave monarch like Zhixu. But Tingfeng, you can't convince my father-in-law."

The father-marshal will not help Xie know Xu and proclaim himself emperor for the sake of the friendship with the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, nor will he violate his promise, nor will he allow himself to do unfaithful and unfilial things.

"Can we talk about the third way?" Fang Chuning asked suddenly.

"Appreciate further details."

As the sky was getting darker, Xie Jue lit the oil lamp, and the room was shrouded in a warm light. Xie Jue's face became more and more calm under the warm light.

After Fang Chuning hesitated, he plucked up his courage, "Lin Heli came to Jiaozhou to negotiate with you that year, and said that Yuwen Jing had sinned against himself. Are you willing to cease the war and surrender? Now add another one, he will add his life after he sinned against himself. ?”

"A Bao is still young, let me be the regent?" Xie Jue raised his eyebrows, a little sad, Fang Chuning was too naive for the two sides to stop the war, how many times has he said these words to Marshal Fang?He was reprimanded or beaten by Marshal Fang.Originally, the relationship between father and son was not good, and they had to mediate in the middle, "Do you think the commander-in-chief will agree?"

"It doesn't necessarily mean that the young master ascended the throne." Fang Chuning breathed a sigh of relief.

"King Duan, or King Kang?"

"No." Fang Chuning shook his head and sat up straight, "Master Hou helped Yu Wenjing's lineage to proclaim himself emperor, you were quite critical, remember?"

"Remember!"

At that time, Xie Jue was still young, still studying in the Imperial College, Zhenbei Hou failed in the New Deal, the first emperor was burned to death in the palace, and the prince's line was also killed, so he had no choice but to help the Ming Emperor's family.At that time, Emperor Jianming was not the only choice for Lord Hou. The Yuwen clan was huge, and the hottest topic in Beijing at that time was who would become the emperor.

Guozijian is the highest school in the world, and they are all students from Kyoto or selected from various places, so discussions are inevitable.Fang Chuning was not interested in this matter, someone even came to ask Xie Jue who your father planned to make emperor.

The most discussed topic in Guozijian was that Lord Hou would choose the clan from Beijing, and King Qi was the best candidate. King Qi was young at that time, so Lord Hou could directly be the regent.The cabinet is also in charge of the father-in-law, whoever is in power is a puppet, and King Qi was the popular candidate at that time.

Fang Chuning was not interested, but he would inevitably be harassed by the remarks. He had a private conversation with Xie Jue, and Xie Jue also liked King Qi. The Hou Mansion could directly be the regent, without having to choose an adult emperor.

But King Qi is good at eating, drinking and having fun. He is a dude in Beijing, and the Marquis of Zhenbei thinks he is useless.Emperor Jianming has been a vassal in Ningzhou for many years and has outstanding political achievements. Marquis Zhenbei feels that Emperor Jianming can be a good emperor.

"My father is loyal and naive. After my grandfather and uncle died in battle, he only wanted to defeat the northern barbarians. He couldn't feel the burning fire in Beijing, and his grandfather and mother blocked all open and hidden arrows for him. Back then When Emperor Jianming was in Ningzhou, he was gentle, benevolent, and well-governed. My father naively thought that after defeating the Northern Man, he would release his military power with a glass of wine. Although Emperor Jianming would be afraid of the Hou Mansion, as long as he is loyal and returns the military power, the Hou Mansion will be fine. Nothing will happen. The five generations of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion have been loyal to the emperor and guarded the border. He is very concerned about the clan saying that he has made great achievements and emptied the imperial power. The adult and benevolent Emperor Jianming is indeed more suitable to be a king than the king of Qi who only knows how to eat, drink and play. Mingjun. I was still young, and with my grandfather, I would often listen to him discuss state affairs with Zhang Taifu, and I could clearly feel the situation of the Hou Mansion, so I was not as naive as my father. I did not approve of him choosing Jian Mingdi, eating, drinking and having fun The dandy is so easy to control, stupid and cowardly, even if he had ten guts, he would not dare to kill my family. Since the Hou Mansion is a loyal monarch, it should choose a puppet. Choose a Mingjun... Oh, which Mingjun would be willing to be ostracized by powerful ministers, Sooner or later, blood will flow into rivers. Unfortunately, I was too young back then, just a child, and had no right to speak. However, even if I was an adult, my father would still choose Emperor Jianming if he gave advice. Because he thought Emperor Jianming was a Ming Jun will bring peace to the people of Yanyang. He does not look down on the dandy who is doing nothing in the capital. He knows that Ming Jun will not tolerate the Marquis, and he will still go his own way. Because this is his original intention of being a courtier, it is His loyalty and love for the people of Yanyang made him choose the most capable and most suitable monarch."

Fang Chuning said, "In fact, Lord Hou is right. Emperor Jianming is a wise emperor. He has been in power for 11 years, obeying the cabinet in everything, promoting imperial examinations, and emphasizing agriculture and mulberry. Although he will use the clan and the Hou Mansion to seek a balance, he has never made a big mistake. After Hou Ye triumphantly, he wanted to drink wine to release his military power. He made friends with Hou Ye and hoped that the Hou Mansion would return the military power. It is true to guard Ningzhou .”

"I know!" Xie Jue closed his eyes in pain, "He is considered a very good emperor. Ningzhou needs food and soldiers, and it has been going on for ten years. He can't change the situation of the clan and the Marquis. It's not that he's incompetent, it's because the situation in Yanyang's government and opposition has been like this for many years, and he is also afraid of being burned to death in the palace like the late emperor. I suspected the wrong person at first, because during the peace talks, he was the one who planned to kill my Houfu. My negligence, I didn't think of Yuwenjing at first, let alone Yuwenjing would be so mad that he even killed his father. He must have talked about his plan with Emperor Jianming, and Emperor Jianming refused, so it became his stumbling block, so he will Killed by Yu Wenjing."

Fang Chuning already understood what Xie Jue meant.

But Xie Jue still told him bluntly, "My father didn't choose the wrong emperor back then, but he didn't expect the crown prince to be someone like Yu Wenjing. Ah Ning, I don't want to entrust the fate of Zhixu and Ruyi to a situation where even I don't know for sure." Knowing that Xu must become the emperor and hold great power, otherwise I will not feel at ease, and I do not trust the Yuwen royal family."

"I see." Fang Chuning sighed, "I'm afraid there is no one in this world who can make you feel at ease."

"Have!"

"Who?"

Xie Jue asked without answering, "If your candidate is not Duan Wang or Kang Wang, who is it?"

"If you don't worry, then don't mention it."

"You know my temper, and you won't mention this for no reason."

Fang Chuning knew that he couldn't hide it from him, "Emperor Wen Hui's eldest grandson was exiled during the palace coup that year, and his father was found."

"What is wandering outside, it is obviously the eldest princess who risked her life to save people."

"how do you know?"

"If that's the case, I guess." Xie Jue said with a chuckle, "The eldest princess was raised by the former queen since she was a child, and she has a deep relationship with the prince's siblings. It is not surprising that the eldest princess saved people. Why did she end up living outside?"

"The old people in the Prince's Mansion were instigated by someone, thinking that he was dangerous in the capital, and designed to take him away from the capital. It's fine to take them away, but they didn't take good care of them." Fang Chuning said with a frown, "Anyway... now we have found him." .”

"With no foundation, how can you convince the public? Yuwenjing has already grown his wings, so don't let him get involved."

"I don't want to!" Fang Chuning said helplessly, "What's so good about being an emperor, the imperial city is just a gorgeous cage. My father-in-law wants to resolve this grievance and reconcile the Ningzhou iron cavalry and the imperial court, so he sent me to be the emperor. Guest, my father's life is difficult, let me say yes first, this is his wishful thinking, not me.

"Then what do you think?"

"Me?" Fang Chuning lowered his eyes, and his voice was aggrieved, "I want to turn back time, nothing happened, we went to guard the south of the Yangtze River together, and toured the mountains and rivers. I know it's impossible in this life, so now I have no idea, I should guard the city City, just do your duty.”

"I don't believe it." Xie Jue chuckled, crossed the chessboard, and raised his chin with one hand, "A-Ning, tell me, what do you think?"

The night was shrouded in darkness, and the oil lamp was flickering. Xie Jue's eyebrows had a rare softness of the spring breeze in March in the warm light. His knuckle-boned hand was close at hand, and he could smell the pine fragrance from the man's palm.

Those forbearing, restrained, magma-like spring tides are rolling, the light in the dark night is eclipsed, and the heartbeat becomes viscous like blood.

"Tingfeng..." Fang Chuning's voice was hoarse, "Is this a beauty trick?"
