Chapter 680 Secret Letter
Unexpectedly, after King Ning said this for only two days, something happened to him.

"What's going on?" King Ning was wearing a plain Taoist robe and his hair was partly loose. From that look, he was really fasting and praying devoutly, so he was even more unhappy to see the people who came to him.Didn't I already say it all, he has to concentrate on fasting and praying for blessings for the past seven days, and he can just go to his third child for other things, why is he still so ignorant?

Could it be that the imperial court keeps all the wine bags and rice bags, and it can't do without him?
Even if the person who came was his brother-in-law, the dignified Minister of the Ministry of War, King Ning didn't have a good face. He just ignored him and asked Zhu Jingyu instead.

Zhu Jingyu still looked calm, heard the sound, cupped his hands and said, "Today, Lord Shangshu received a letter, signed by the son, in which it said that Xiao Jing, the commander of the Nanjing Guards, had already cooperated with the enemy, and he was defeated in Jiangbei. Wan Dajun turned his back on the battlefield, and now he is being chased and killed, and the letter is for help." Zhu Jingyu's voice was very cold, and he spoke plainly without any emotion.

"What?" King Ning frowned, startled.

"This letter came a little strangely. But Master Shangshu took the letter and rushed to disturb the father, but the boy stopped it, saying that the father said that he had something to discuss with the boy during the seven-day fast. But Shangshu The adults still refused to tell what was going on, and later, they couldn't bear it anymore, so they told the boy about the letter. But the boy just said that what was said in the letter was too different from the previous military report. After careful investigation before making a decision, Master Shang Shu couldn't wait any longer, and insisted on quarreling in front of the father, saying that he wanted to ask the father to make the decision. The child has violated the trust of the father, so he asks the father to forgive him."

The Minister of the Ministry of War did not expect that Zhu Jingyu didn't hide anything at all, and said the matter directly, his face flushed for a while, but he had to bite the bullet and said, "Your Highness, the matter is important, and I have to be cautious. And not It is said that if the son is really hunted down and his life is at stake, then no matter what, it cannot be delayed. Even if what the son said in the letter is true, Jiangbei is in danger, the capital is in danger, Your Highness, we can't take it lightly!"

After hearing this, King Ning's expression became extremely ugly, and he stretched out his hand towards the Minister of the Ministry of War, but the Minister of the Ministry of War had a wink, and hurriedly presented the letter.

King Ning quickly read the letter, the handwriting was a bit sloppy, it could be seen that it was written hastily, but it was indeed Xiao Jingyang's handwriting.but.
King Ning also remembered the previous victory report, didn't they all say big victory?Why did such a letter come all of a sudden?

Can the military newspaper still have fakes?In comparison, it is easier to fake this letter, and it is not difficult to counterfeit this handwriting. "Where's the man who delivered the letter?"

"It's the secret guard next to the son, but just in case, the minister has taken it down and sent someone to torture him." The Minister of the Ministry of War said hurriedly.

King Ning nodded, it was handled well.However. "If it's a conspiracy, then this person's mouth may not be so easy to pry open. In this way, let Lou Congyuan and Xie Ming interrogate together, and make sure to ask questions as soon as possible."

"Yes." Minister of the Ministry of War pondered for a moment, and agreed.Lou Congyuan used to belong to the late emperor, and now, King Ning has not ascended the throne, and has not replaced him, but he is timid and cowardly, so he must not dare to take any action.Although Xie Ming is Zhu Jingyu's brother-in-law, as far as he knows, the two have always been at odds with each other, and Xie Ming is known for being upright and impartial. Interrogating the two of them should not cause any trouble.

But "over there"

King Ning frowned, held the letter in his hand, and turned his gaze to Zhu Jingyu, "Third brother, what do you think of this matter?"

The expression of the Ministry of War Shangshu couldn't help but change.Why does His Highness ask this bastard for his opinion?It seems that the son is not wrong to be worried, His Highness is really partial to this bastard more and more.But what happened?I never saw how His Highness cared about this bastard before!
Minister of the Ministry of War felt depressed for a while, the corners of his mouth fluttered, and just as he was about to speak, King Ning glanced over, and he immediately shrank his neck, unable to speak a word.

But Zhu Jingyu cupped his hands and said, "This is about your son, I dare not say too much."

Why don't you dare to say more, it's self-explanatory.

Naturally, King Ning also knew his concerns, he glanced at the minister of the Ministry of War pointedly, raised his hand and said, "If I tell you to say it, you can say it, is it possible that if the king's son wants to say something, it depends on the person's face." ?”

The Minister of the Ministry of War had a pale color on his face, lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head, not daring to say more.

Zhu Jingyu groaned for a while, and finally said, "It's still the same sentence just now, this letter is a bit strange. If the letter is true, then the previous military newspapers are all fake, but how can the military newspaper be fake so easily?"

Yes!This is also King Ning's concern.King Ning raised his hand, motioning for him to continue.

"Now we don't know if it's true or not, and the results of the interrogation may not be quick. If there is a big move, I'm afraid I will fall into the enemy's tricks and mess up my own position. But I can't ignore the son, so, my child thinks, should I send someone first?" Take a look, these people are good at skills, if the son is really in trouble, they can save him."

After hearing this, King Ning nodded repeatedly, and had to say that Zhu Jingyu's words were comprehensive, which made him very satisfied.

"Your Highness." The satisfied look on King Ning's face made the Minister of War dissatisfied, and he called out in a murmur.

"What? Are you going to use the Jingwei to go directly to Jiangbei to save people? The military reports were all good news earlier, so they are all fake? If the Jingwei leaves the capital and the guards in the capital are empty, what happened? Can you take care of it?" However, before he could speak, King Ning glanced at him coldly, and the words that came out of his mouth completely gagged the mouth of Shangshu of the Ministry of War.

"This king knows that you are afraid that the third child will hide his secrets, but you have also heard what the third child said just now. Every sentence is for the sake of the overall situation, but he does not forget the son. What can you criticize for acting like this?"

"Your Highness, but what if this letter is genuine? What if the military report is really faked by those rebels. In fact, they have already crossed the Yangtze River and even marched northward. Dangerous? Chen, Chen is also thinking about the foundation of the daimyo." The minister of the Ministry of war cupped his hands, with a worried expression on his face.

After hearing this, King Ning laughed, "You mean, those rebels were able to quietly approach the capital without disturbing the guards along the way, but I haven't received any news from here?" King Ning's tone contained sarcasm and anger. "Shangshu of the Ministry of War, do you really think that the soldiers of my name are all vegetarians? Xia Changhe has only 20 soldiers in total, and [-] are left in the southwest. There should be [-] soldiers in Guanzhong. You tell me, he How can there be so many soldiers and horses that can easily break through the Yangtze River Pass? Even if they really instigated the Nanjing Guards and crossed the Yangtze River, then the other guards along the way are probably dead people, don’t know how to stop them? Do you want to report? If there is no movement at all, the Minister of the Ministry of War will worry about the soldiers coming to the city tomorrow?"
