The king of Wu, Yue Longxiang, was the seventh prince of Daliang. On the surface, he was a brother of Yue Fuyao. However, they were half-sisters. Yue Longxiang’s mother died of illness in her early years, and then she was fostered under the command of Yue Fuyao’s mother. Therefore, according to the rules of the royal family, it is okay to say that they are brothers and sisters. Although Yue Longxiang’s mother died early, her mother’s family was very powerful. Therefore, before the old emperor was critically ill, Daliang naturally experienced the process of the princes fighting for the throne, and Yue Longxiang was a hot existence among them. As a result… Yue Fuyao took the throne and became the empress of Daliang! Yue Longxiang did not show much dissatisfaction with this. But when it comes to seizing the throne, who would be willing to give in?

So, after Huang Feng revealed his identity, Ning Fan suddenly became happy. It seemed that he might have to witness a struggle within the royal family.

A moment later, a middle-aged man who looked simple and honest came to the hall and smiled at Ning Fan, but his eyes flashed with a shrewdness that was completely different from his appearance.

“Everyone says that General Huang Feng has a master behind him. Now I see that his reputation is well-deserved.”

“Ning Fan, the general of Tiance of the Great Zhou and the governor of Youzhou.”

“Lord Ning, what a trick.”

“By some strange coincidence, he got into my Daliang territory from the Great Zhou and caused such a storm. Even my King Wu admires him very much.”

The man laughed repeatedly.

Ning Fan glanced at the housekeeper: “Okay, stop talking nonsense. Just tell us what your King Wu wants to do.”

“There is evil in Daliang now. Yin is strong and Yang is weak, which is different from the way of heaven. My King Wu is the blood of the previous king, a noble, and he cares about the people.”

“Therefore…”

The housekeeper began to talk nonsense seriously.

After saying only one sentence, Ning Fan raised his hand impatiently to interrupt: “Stop, stop, stop, why are you talking so much nonsense? If you want to rebel, then you want to rebel.”

“Tell us what your King Wu can provide us and what we can get. Don’t use those empty words. It’s useless.”

“What we want is what we can see and use now.”

The housekeeper couldn’t help but twitch his mouth when Ning Fan said this.

In his heart, there was still some anger.

After all, he was the steward of the Wu Wang Mansion, a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, not to mention that he was the steward of the Wu Wang family, and his status was extraordinary.

But… he knew very well that he had to hold back his anger in front of Ning Fan.

This master was a fierce character who had defeated Dong Bodhi’s 300,000 troops twice, and both times, Dong Bodhi was forcibly rescued by the Ninth Level Saint.

Otherwise, the grass on his grave would be one meter high now.

Putting on airs in front of Ning Fan was simply a sign of being tired of living.

“My King Wu has 60,000 elite soldiers at his disposal, Lord Ning. However, this dispatch does not mean that these 60,000 elite soldiers will be handed over to you.”

“If you need them, you can send them wherever you want!”

“But you can only command them, but you have no control.”

“Please forgive me for this. After all, these 60,000 elite soldiers are all the assets of my prince, and it is impossible to hand them over to others easily.”

The housekeeper’s words are shocking.

60,000 elite soldiers!

Even Ning Fan wanted to say “good guy”.

What a good King Wu. Under the nose of the empress, he secretly got 60,000 elite soldiers. It is obvious that he has bad intentions and wants to rebel.

Which good man can get 60,000 elite soldiers in secret?

“In addition, my prince is willing to support another 100,000 taels of silver and 5,000 dan of food and grass, and he will do his best to delay time for you in the court.”

“And there is only one thing my master wants, that is, you must lead the army to fight to Longjiang!”

As the housekeeper spoke, the bright light in his eyes overflowed.

Longjiang, a river separates the north and the south.

If you fight to Longjiang, it means that you have conquered half of the entire Daliang.

This half of the country is the land of six states.

Huang Feng on the side was already shocked. Even though he now controls a state with the help of Ning Fan, he was also scared by this request.

Fight to Longjiang?

You have to think highly of us.

The empress has strong men like clouds and elites like mountains. Although Dong Puti was defeated, he was defeated in a battle.

Once the empress gets angry and mobilizes all the troops to encircle Quzhou, then let alone Ning

Ning Fan, even if the old man from Wudi City came, he would have to turn around and run away.

“Your King Wu is really generous!”

Ning Fan raised his eyebrows and sneered.

“One hundred thousand silver, five thousand dan of grain, let’s put it this way, this little thing is not as much as what those local rich people gave me when I was in the Great Zhou.”

Ning Fan spoke without any consideration for the feelings of the housekeeper in front of him.

What a shitty King Wu, just giving such a small thing to a beggar?

“Sir!”

“Although the things are small, it is like sending goose feathers from a thousand miles away, and the gift is small but the sentiment is great.”

“Right now, you have just conquered Quzhou, but you must be running out of things to use and eat. My prince’s things are not much, but they can quench your thirst.”

The housekeeper was also a little embarrassed, but he hurried to make up for it.

Ning Fan smiled disdainfully: “So, if I’m not mistaken, your master has been planning this for a long time, preparing for a rebellion, right?”

“Uh… my master is trying to help…”

“Speak nicely to me, if you keep beating around the bush, I’ll chop off your dog head!”

“Yes!”

“Then go back and tell your master that I’m sending 60,000 troops, don’t worry about where I got them, just listen to his orders, and I’ll fight wherever he tells me to fight.”

“In addition, I’ll personally sponsor your King Wu with 500,000 taels of silver and 10,000 dan of grain.”

“The request is also not high. He has to fight me to Longjiang. If he can’t, I’ll kill him at King Wu’s mansion and take off his head with my own hands.”

“Is that okay?”

Ning Fan’s words made the housekeeper tremble with fear.

Listen to what you say, is it human language?

Brother, you are rebelling, and we are the princes, okay!

What level, the same conditions as my prince?

“My lord, you…”

“If you can’t, shut up. If I can reach Longjiang, why would your King Wu interfere here?”

“If you want to rebel, just be honest and hand over the 60,000 elite soldiers. Your people will still be in charge.”

“Fight wherever I tell you to fight.”

“If you don’t want to rebel, then stay in the imperial city and enjoy your life.”

Ning Fan waved his hand impatiently.

The housekeeper laughed awkwardly: “That… My lord, I will definitely convey your conditions to my prince. I will come again in a few days.”

As he spoke, the housekeeper turned around and was about to leave.

“Wait.”

“When will the 100,000 silver and 5,000 dan of grain be delivered?”

“Ah?”
