Fortunate Young Gentleman

The Crown Prince of Chu stared at the middle-aged woman with an angry expression.

For him, the word "King of Faith" has been a shadow that has accompanied him since he was a child.

Although he is the prince of a country, above him, there is a more powerful regent. He believes in the wishes of the king and the people and has a mountain of prestige in the court. He has lost count of how many times he has woken up from a dream, just because of the dream. Here comes the man.

He is only one step away from the throne, but if he wants to take this small step, he has to cross this mountain range.

"We know what His Highness the Crown Prince is worried about." The middle-aged woman looked up at him and said, "Perhaps, we can help the Crown Prince a little."

The Prince of Chu calmed down, looked at her, and asked, "How can you help me?"

The middle-aged woman said: "If there is no King Xin in Kyoto, His Highness the Crown Prince will be very happy, right?"

The Crown Prince of Chu narrowed his eyes, looked at her, and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

The middle-aged woman looked at him and said: "It's very simple, as long as Your Highness does us a small favor..."

…

The motive of the grassland coming to conquer Chu was questionable, but their purpose did not keep people guessing for long, and it became clear in less than half a day.

Before many grassland envoys could settle down, they visited the senior officials of Chu State with great fanfare, including Prince Xin's Palace, Prince's Palace, Prime Minister's Palace, and the Six Ministers' Palaces.

This kind of behavior that was open and closed and did not follow the rules shocked countless people's jaws.

However, in recent years, there has been constant friction between Grassland and the State of Chu. Neither country has ever sent an envoy. The first visit of an envoy from Grassland is also of great significance to the State of Chu.

If the two countries could negotiate peace and establish diplomatic relations, it would obviously be much better than the outbreak of war. The imperial court also paid special attention to these grassland envoys.

It is precisely because of this that most of the houses they visited did not turn them away.

In the Splendid Palace, He Rui hurriedly walked in and said: "Master Tang, we have figured out what those barbarians want to do. They want to marry the Chu State, and the one they want to marry is the princess of Changning. These barbarians actually snatched Let’s go first!”

Tangning looked at him and asked, "The terms they offered should be very generous, right?"

He Rui raised his head and said in surprise: "How do you know, sir?"

The Chen State and the Chu State were friends, and the grassland was an enemy. Almost everyone knew that the Chen State wanted to marry Princess Changning. How could the grassland people not be fully prepared if they wanted to interfere?

Tangning looked at him and asked, "What price are they going to pay?"

He Rui said: "I will give the Chu State a thousand war horses every year, so that there will be no war with the Chu State for ten years."

The grassland people are good at riding and shooting, and their war horses are even more outstanding. No one can stop the cavalry when they pass by. This is also something that Chen and Chu are extremely envious of. If they give away thousands of well-trained war horses from Chu every year, in a few years , Chu State will be able to train a group of brave cavalry.

As for no war within ten years, this condition was equally tempting to the Chu courtiers.

The Chu State is different from the Chen State. Although the Chen and Chu countries are now about the same national strength, the Chen State has maintained its current national strength for a long time and is still decreasing year by year. The Chu State is in a period of upward development. Years later, we still don’t know how strong it will become.

Of course, this does not rule out that they used a stratagem to break up the alliance between Chen and Chu. The Chu court was not that stupid, but no matter what, those people from the grassland had successfully divided this pool. The water is muddy.

This also illustrates the truth from the side. If a woman wants to not worry about getting married, she still needs to improve herself.

With strong martial arts skills, profound knowledge, good looks, and a good figure, there are so many people rushing to get...

Tang Ning looked at He Rui and asked, "Did Prince Xin's Mansion let the envoys from the Wanyan Department in?"

He Rui shook his head and said, "It is said that King Xin was not here and they did not go in."

Tangning was stunned and asked, "King Xin isn't here?"

He Rui nodded and said, "It is said that he went to the palace."

Tangning walked outside the door and said, "Princess, if you want to find me, just tell me that I have something to do and I have to go out."

royal palace.

Anshen Temple.

King Xin walked to the door with his hands behind his back and asked, "Is your Majesty awake?"

A eunuch bowed and said, "I just woke up for a while."

King Xin nodded and walked into the palace. Emperor Chu leaned on the bed and said, "You are here. I heard that you were assassinated again today?"

King Xin waved his hand and said: "A few little frog thieves have been captured by others."

Emperor Chu shook his head and said: "He is so shameless..."

"It's okay." King Xin walked to the window and sat down, asking, "Brother, how do you feel about your health today?"

Emperor Chu did not answer this question. He paused for a moment and then asked again: "The envoys from the State of Chen have arrived, and they are entertaining them... I heard from them that the State of Chen wants to marry Chang Ning. What do you mean?"

King Xin shook his head and said, "Zhao Zheng is quite capable, but his two sons are just useless idiots."

Emperor Chu looked at him and asked, "How does it compare to Zhi'er?"

King Xin thought for a moment and said, "I'm still better than him."

Emperor Chu lowered his head, paused again for a while, and then said: "Is there someone coming from the grassland?"

"The person with ulterior motives is evil." King Xin helped him tuck the quilt and said: "The Wanyan tribe has great ambitions. The Shuhu and Jiagu tribes were able to stop them for a while, but they will not be able to stop them forever. Sooner or later, there will be a battle. However, this Let them stir things up for once, and it will help those short-sighted people in the court who want to harm the country to come out."

"It's not just the grasslands that have ambitions." The King of Chu looked into the empty space and said slowly: "There are tigers and wolves lurking around. The world you and I have conquered is in Zhi'er's hands. Even if I die, I will not dare to close my eyes..."

"After I leave, you have to help him keep an eye on the court. If you can help him, support him well. If he can't help him, then, then..." He covered his mouth and coughed violently before he finished his words.

Prince Xin gently patted his back and said, "My brother, have a good rest and don't think about these things that hurt your heart..."

...

The guard at the door of Prince Xin's mansion looked at Tang Ning and said, "My Lord, my prince is not here. Please come back another day."

Tang Ning bowed and said, "Then I'll take my leave."

Inside the mansion, a delicate courtyard.

A maid walked into the yard with a tray and said, "Princess, this is the soup that the princess made for you."

Li Tianlan sat at the table and said, "Put it aside for now."

The maid stepped aside and reminded, "The princess has told you to drink it while it's hot."

Li Tianlan picked up the spoon, tasted it, and put it down.

She took out a stick from her sleeve, which had an eight-character message on it, "What night is it, I meet this good man."

After she looked at it, she smiled self-deprecatingly and threw it aside.

Self-deprecation is a mockery of her who has never believed in gods and Buddhas, but one day she would be disturbed by these empty things. If this message is true, then someone should appear in front of her now.

She picked up the spoon again, her eyes suddenly flickered, and she looked up and looked forward.

A light figure flew in from outside the wall and landed steadily.

Tang Ning clapped his hands. The guards of Prince Xin's mansion were indeed very strict. There were guards patrolling at both gates of the mansion, and there was no interval between shift changes.

He walked around the mansion and found only this weak defense.

He looked around and planned to find a servant to ask where the princess lived. When he raised his head, he was suddenly startled.

He climbed over the wall and found a small courtyard with a woman sitting at a stone table in the courtyard.

The next moment, the woman's figure disappeared in front of Tang Ning.

At the same time, he felt a breeze blowing in front of him.

Tang Ning's face changed slightly, and he moved more than a foot to the left almost instantly, but the next moment, he felt a chill on his neck, and a cold long sword was placed on his neck.

He could even feel the sharpness of the sword. Tang Ning tore off the black cloth on his face and asked, "What are you doing?"

Clang.

The long sword in the woman's hand fell to the ground.
