Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 955: Huang Liang Yimeng Tang Ning originally thought that she would have to deal with twists and turns with him for a long time, but she didn't expect Emperor Chu to be so straightforward, which actually made him a little embarrassed.

When Emperor Chu saw that he actually showed an emotional expression, his face suddenly darkened and he said, "Sure enough, this is your purpose. Have you already settled everything?"

Tangning's expression became serious and she asked, "Your Majesty is joking, do you think I can bribe your would-be prince to cooperate with me in this play?"

After he finished speaking, another smile appeared on his face and he said: "However, the prince and quasi-prince of your country have the same virtue..."

"This matter is due to a breach of etiquette in our country of Chu." Emperor Chu glanced at him and asked, "What do you, Xiaowan, want to explain?"

Tangning looked at him and said, "It all depends on Chu State's sincerity..."

Emperor Chu snorted coldly and asked, "What if Chu State is not sincere?"

Tang Ning said: "Then Xiaowan won't give up."

A sneer appeared on Emperor Chu's face, and he said: "I want to see how you can't give up..."

Tangning looked at the suddenly tough Emperor Chu, thought for a moment, and asked, "Don't you regret it, and want to use our Xiaowan to mess up the future prince's affairs?"

Put yourself in his shoes, if he were the Emperor of Chu, he would not want to hand over the country that he had finally stabilized to such a person.

But Jun Wuxi said that he himself could not retract this decision for no reason, but if the matter was made a big deal through Xiaowan's hands, it would be logical for him to retract the holy order at the same time.

After Tang Ning exposed his thoughts, Emperor Chu's expression remained unchanged and he said, "Do you think I would use such a clumsy method?"

"No." Although Tang Ning felt that it was true in her heart, when she said it now, he would probably become angry and had to say: "But I will not give up Lan Lan. If you don't agree, I will not leave Chu country for a day... "

Emperor Chu glanced at him and asked, "You don't want the Western Region anymore?"

Tang Ning said: "If I have to make a choice between Western Region and Lanlan, I choose Lanlan."

Outside the hall, after hearing his words, a figure standing in front of the window had a smile on his face.

Emperor Chu glanced at him, was silent for a long time, and then said: "Since you like Lanlan so much, it would seem wrong of me if I disagree... However, I have a condition. If you don't agree, this matter will also No need to mention it again.”

Having reached this point, Tangning naturally would not give up and immediately asked, "What are the conditions?"

Emperor Chu said: "The first son you two give birth to must be named Li. After he is three years old, he will be brought to me."

Tangning looked at him with wide eyes and asked, "What do you mean?"

Emperor Chu looked at him and said: "Since the Chu royal family does not have a talented heir, I will cultivate one myself!"

How could she bear to let her own son stay away from her? Tangning looked at Emperor Chu and suggested, "Why don't you give birth to one by yourself? You are now in your prime, so powerful..."

Emperor Chu glared at her, causing Tangning to swallow her next words.

He looked at Emperor Chu's expression and knew that if he didn't agree to this matter, he would be determined not to get his wish.

He thought for a while and said: "This is not my matter alone. I need to discuss it with Lanlan."

Emperor Chu gave an order, and Li Tianlan arrived here quickly.

Although the two argued hard, Emperor Chu remained unmoved. They tried their best to extend the three-year period to five years, but he refused to retreat at all.

In desperation, Tang Ning could only agree. What would happen in five years was still uncertain, so she had to agree first and pass the current hurdle.

After finalizing this matter, the relationship between Tang Ning and Emperor Chu immediately eased. Emperor Chu not only welcomed him with a smile, but even allowed him to eat in the palace.

The new mother-in-law looked at him very strangely. After all, the last time she saw him, he was just a minor official in the Chen Kingdom. When we met again after a few years, he was already the leader of the Xiaowan Kingdom, one of the few in this continent. Many people stand at the pinnacle of power.

When Emperor Chu was halfway through eating, he put down his chopsticks and asked, "Now that you are the leader of the Xiaowan Kingdom, how do you plan to treat the Chen Kingdom?"

Tang Ning said: "The people of both countries long for peace. The hostile relationship between Xiaowan and Chen is in the past..."

Emperor Chu nodded and asked again: "Are you going back to Chen Kingdom?"

Tangning smiled and said, "I have to go back. There are some things that need to be dealt with."

Li Tianlan glanced at him cryptically, but did not reveal it.

Emperor Chu picked up the chopsticks again and said, "Today is no better than in the past, so be careful when you go back."

The queen glanced at him and asked, "Even if this child is in Chen State, he is still a general and prime minister. Why should he be careful?"

"When all the birds are gone, good bows are hidden..." Emperor Chu said: "After the grassland is stabilized, the Western Region has become the last enemy of Chen State. Without foreign enemies, Zhao Zheng no longer needs any powerful general..."

Tangning nodded and said, "I will be careful..."

In fact, he had already expected that there would be some unpleasantness between him and Emperor Chen when he returned to Chen Kingdom this time.

Even if the bow is not hidden after the bird is killed, what the Emperor Chen wants is that Tang Ning stays in Chen State and continues to assist the next emperor. This is contrary to Tang Ning's idea. If Tang Ning does not obey his arrangement, he will not let Tang Ning take Zhao Man away easily. If it is not for the other gains from this trip to the Western Regions, it will still be a bit troublesome for him to take Zhao Man away when he returns to Chen State this time.

The meal was a happy one. Before leaving, the Emperor of Chu called Tang Ning and gave him a look.

Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me..."

...

Two major events have happened in Kyoto recently.

One is that His Majesty and the court have selected the candidate for the crown prince. The prince of Xian has come to Beijing and will be enthroned as the prince soon.

The second thing is still related to the prince of Xian.

When the prince of Xian was in Xianzhou, he flirted with Princess Xiaowan and surrounded and killed the king of Xiaowan. After arriving in the capital, he framed the king of Xiaowan and arrested him in the Ministry of Justice. He was so bold...

The king and princess were insulted in Chu. The envoys of Xiaowan were furious and chased the court of Chu to ask for an explanation, which made the officials of Chu very worried.

Today, Xiaowan is already a big country that is not inferior to Chu. Any small contradiction may erupt into a national conflict.

At the same time, there were some different voices in both the people and the court. The future prince of Chu was so bad in character. Would the country be handed over to such a person in the future?

Some people and officials jointly wrote to the court and begged His Majesty not to treat the future of the country as a joke and to withdraw the order of canonization...

Your Majesty has always taken public opinion into consideration and quickly discussed the result with the ministers.

As a member of the royal family, the prince of Xian was bold and lawless, which seriously hurt the feelings of friendly countries. The prince of Xian failed to discipline him and had an unshirkable responsibility. From then on, he was demoted to a county prince. At the same time, the prince of Xian was also deprived of his qualifications as a crown prince. From now on, he will be sent back to his fiefdom and cannot come to the capital without being summoned...

Inside the hall, the prince of Xian knelt on the ground, his face pale and expressionless...

His position as crown prince came suddenly, but it turned out to be a dream.

He knelt there blankly with the imperial edict in his hand, as if his soul had been taken away...
