Fortunate Young Gentleman

In the imperial study room, the atmosphere was extremely solemn.

The serving young eunuch lowered his head and said nothing, even the sound of his breathing was deliberately suppressed. This was mainly because His Majesty's face was gloomy, and any abnormal noise at this moment might be a precursor to His Majesty's anger.

I don't know how long it took before a young eunuch came in from outside the palace and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, Lord Tang is here."

Emperor Chen's expression softened slightly and he said, "Xuan."

Tangning walked into the main hall, actually feeling a little nervous.

The sharp blade defeated Chen Huang's shadow guard. Although he didn't say it on the surface, he would definitely feel uncomfortable in his heart. He might find an opportunity to torment him and regain the lost face.

He was mentally prepared for this.

But even though he was mentally prepared, he didn't expect that his revenge would come so quickly. He had just returned home, and before his chair was warm, he was summoned to the palace again.

"I see your Majesty." He walked to the palace, cupped his hands, and asked, "I wonder what your Majesty's orders are?"

Emperor Chen looked at him and said, "I have an errand for you to do."

Tang Ning did not speak, waiting for Chen Huang to continue, but she was already sighing secretly in her heart. Judging from Chen Huang's serious expression, this must not be a good thing...

Chen Huang stood up, walked down from above, and said, "I want you to go to Jiangnan."

Even though Tang Ning knew that Chen Huang would avenge the Shadow Guard, she never expected that he would be so ruthless and send him directly to Jiangnan. There was no such thing as losing if he couldn't afford it...

Although Jiangnan was prosperous, his home was in the capital, and he didn't want to go to a place he was unfamiliar with.

Tangning looked troubled, looked at Emperor Chen, and said, "Your Majesty, I, I just got married not long ago, this Jiangnan..."

Chen Huang said: "There is some trouble in Jiangnan. I want to find a capable and trustworthy person to solve it. After thinking about it, I think there is no one more suitable than you."

Only then did Tang Ning understand that it turned out that this trip to Jiangnan was not a dispatch, but just an errand, which would delay him for a few months at most. Although he was still unwilling to bother, looking at Chen Huang's expression, it was clear that the chaos in Jiangnan was not small, and he was most likely to do this errand. There is no way to avoid it.

Since I can't resist, I can only accept it. Fortunately, the place I want to go to is Jiangnan and not other places. It just happens that I can take my mother to see it, and then visit Su Huhu by the way, and give her a good night's sleep for free. It is all regarded as a public trip. Plus visiting relatives.

Traveling through most of Chen country to sleep with her, Su Huxu will definitely be very moved when he sees him, right?

After thinking about it for a while, Tang Ning looked at Chen Huang and asked, "I wonder what happened in Jiangnan?"

Emperor Chen said with a gloomy face: "There are thieves in Hezhou, Runzhou and several other states who are causing trouble, inciting the people, and plotting evil. You should take people to go and have a look. If you encounter any rebels and traitors, you will kill them without mercy."

Tang Ning finally understood why Chen Huang was so angry.

From ancient times to the present, the most unbearable thing for emperors is rebellion. Rebellion is also the biggest crime at present. The nine clans are implicated and will not be pardoned. As long as the rebels only spark a spark, the court will extinguish them at all costs.

Regarding this matter, Chen Huang's reaction was quite calm.

If the rebellion was in the north instead of south of the Yangtze River, he might have been unable to sit still and summoned his ministers to discuss countermeasures.

Even if the south really rebels on a large scale, as long as the imperial court gathers its troops and marches south, it will be unstoppable all the way. But the north is different. The terrain is complex, food is insufficient, and the fighting power of the rebels is not of the same level. It may not be possible to win a few battles. No one in the world is named Zhao anymore.

He looked at Emperor Chen, cupped his hands, and said, "I obey your order."

Chen Huang thought for a while and said: "To avoid alarming the enemy, you are going as the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. It is called to evaluate local officials in Jiangnan, but in fact it is to investigate this matter. I will give you a token, and you can move places at will." The defenders, in addition, you should also take the one hundred men with you with you..."

…

Rebellion is indeed something that the emperor cannot bear. Even if there is only the slightest hint of rebellion, he will completely eliminate it.

Emperor Chen explained to Tang Ning for a full quarter of an hour. After he finished speaking, Gongsun Ying, who was still kneeling in the palace, raised his head and suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go to Jiangnan with General Tang to make meritorious deeds..."

Tang Ning looked at her and said to Emperor Chen, "Your Majesty, my trip is very dangerous. Commander Gongsun is very capable. Why not let her go with me, so that I can feel more at ease."

Chen Huang glanced at Gongsun Ying and said, "You go out first."

Gongsun Ying stood up and slowly retreated.

Emperor Chen then looked at Tang Ning, frowned and said, "Whether this person sincerely surrenders or not is a matter of debate. If we take her with us, what if something goes wrong..."

Tang Ning said sternly: "It is precisely because I am not sure whether this person will surrender that I want to take this opportunity to give her a try. If she has evil intentions, it is much better to follow me to Jiangnan than to stay with His Majesty."

"You are interested." Chen Huang was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "Then let her go to Jiangnan with you. If she really plans something, you can act as appropriate. If necessary, you can kill her."

When he said the last sentence, his face turned completely cold, and murderous intent loomed in his eyes.

Tangning cupped her hands and said, "Please remember this."

Chen Huang nodded and said: "Go back and prepare. Things will change later, so you should set off as soon as possible."

Tang Ning walked out of the imperial study and walked across the square in front of her. She saw Gongsun Ying standing at the head of the white jade bridge, seemingly waiting for him.

She looked at Tang Ning and asked, "Did the emperor agree?"

Tang Ning looked at her and asked, "What are you going to Jiangnan for?"

Gongsun Ying pulled the corner of his mouth and asked, "Didn't you guess it?"

Tang Ning looked at her and asked, "Was the Jiangnan Rebellion caused by Bai Jin?"

Gongsun Ying snorted coldly and said, "Who else could it be except her?"

In fact, Tang Ning didn't guess at first what the Jiangnan Rebellion had to do with Bai Jin.

After all, Su Mei's master looked like a smart man. Normal people would not do such a stupid thing as inciting the people to rebel in Jiangnan.

Nine out of ten rebels in history were in the north. This was because the people in the north had a harder life. The court's taxes were a little harsher, or when there was a disaster, the people would be displaced. As long as they were instigated, rebellion was nothing to them for survival.

But the south was different. Jiangnan was rich and the people lived in peace. With no worries about food and clothing, who would be willing to rebel?

Seeing Gongsun Ying's attitude, Tang Ning had to suspect Bai Jin of this matter. After all, even if there was a rebellion in Jiangnan, it was in Chen State, which had nothing to do with her. Why was she so anxious?

Tang Ning looked at Gongsun Ying and asked, "Why did they do this? Who are you?"

Gongsun Ying looked at him and laughed, "Why, didn't Bai Jin tell you?"

Tang Ning looked at her calmly and asked, "Do you know what His Majesty said to me just now?"

Gongsun Ying sneered and said, "Emperor Chen has never really trusted me, so naturally he asked you to be on guard against me."

"You guessed half right." Tang Ning looked at her, stretched out his hand, gently wiped her neck, and said, "He also said that if you don't listen, he will kill you..."

Gongsun Ying's face changed slightly, because he knew that Tang Ning had this ability.

Not to mention the one hundred elite soldiers, she was far from being a match for the butcher who followed him.

Tang Ning looked at Gongsun Ying again and said, "Be obedient and tell me everything you know..."
