Fang Zhengzheng naturally heard what Prince Lin Tianrong said.
Entering the third rank of court? Also in charge of the post of Minister of Rites? Is this reward a little low? Did you agree to at least get a second-grade official
It seems that what Pingyang said is not too reliable.
In this way, I wonder if the fiefdom still exists
While Fang Zhengzheng was feeling distraught, what he actually wanted to say was, could someone get an antidote for himself? It's wrong of you not to let me talk like this!
Of course…
It was impossible for anyone to hear what he said.
Shan Ling was even less likely to come up with the idea of explaining to Fang Zhengzheng, because that would be tantamount to admitting that he had poisoned Fang Zhengzheng.
How can you recognize it
Even if he admitted it in Princess Shanyu's room, it was only at that time. It was impossible for him to admit it outside Princess Shanyu's room, especially in this palace.
And, most importantly, he didn't want Fang Zhengzheng to speak.
However, after hearing the words of Prince Lin Tianrong and the voices of the talented scholars opposite, the chiefs and generals of the Southern Territory understood how difficult this matter was.
Fang Zhengzheng's contribution in the battle in the Southern Territory is known to the whole world.
If Fang Zhengzheng is really executed, let alone Daxia, even for the people of the Southern Territory, it will not be easy to explain.
Moreover, Fang Zhengzheng had just been awarded a reward.
Of course, it is impossible for a person who has been entrusted with such an important task by the current Holy Emperor to be directly executed in the royal palace of the Southern Territory, let alone directly convicted.
So…
The only way is to leave it to the Holy Spirit to deal with it.
But, how will the Holy Lord deal with it
The King of the Southern Territory frowned at this time. He had to weigh the handling of this matter. According to the guilt, Fang Zhengzheng was almost bound to die.
However, to be honest, the Southern Territory King did not really want to kill Fang Zhengzheng.
After all, Fang Zhengzheng's contribution to the Southern Territory was too great. If he would immediately turn against him and kill someone just because of the royal family's face at this time.
This is a bit too harsh.
But if you don't kill...
How can the Shan family retain their face
If Fang Zhengzheng is really not far away from death as he said, then that's it, but what if he doesn't die? How will Princess Shanyu get married in the future
No matter who becomes the consort of the Southern Territory, this green hat is firmly established.
Moreover, this cuckold will become known to the world as Fang Zhengzheng is promoted to a higher position in the Great Xia Dynasty, becoming greener and greener, as green as green and as green as moss.
kill? Or not to kill
The King of the Southern Territory frowned tightly.
"Father!" At this moment, Princess Shanyu's voice finally sounded again.
"Shan Yu, you... just say something if you have anything to say." The South Territory King's body trembled slightly, and he looked at Princess Shan Yu, with an obvious look of guilt.
As a father.
Moreover, it is a shame that he is still the majestic king of the Southern Territory, but he cannot kill a scumbag with a sword for touching his daughter's bed.
"Sister, this matter is still up to my father..." Shan Ling wanted to interrupt.
"Father, according to the tradition of the Southern Territory, the father has already married his daughter at today's banquet, and Fang Zhengzheng did eat the barbecue made by his daughter. So, normally, the daughter can have a choice, right? ?" Princess Shan Yu interrupted this time without waiting for Shan Ling to continue.
"This..." The Southern Territory King's expression changed slightly.
Of course he heard the meaning of Princess Shanyu's words, and speaking from the bottom of his heart, if this matter was finally resolved by recruiting Fang Zhengzheng as his consort.
Naturally, it is also the most appropriate way to deal with it.
only…
When he thought that Fang Zhengyi might ascend to heaven at any time, he felt extremely entangled in his heart. After all, no one would think of recruiting a short-lived ghost as his son-in-law.
The King of the South Territory felt a little hesitant.
And this hesitation naturally fell into Shan Ling's eyes.
"Father, I feel that since this matter involves the third-rank courtiers of the Great Xia Dynasty, then, logically speaking, the decision should be made at the Great Xia court. It is better to hand over Fang Zhengzheng to His Highness the Crown Prince and take him back to Yanjing City, and let the Holy Lord make the final decision in person. Better!" Shan Ling quickly suggested.
"Well, what Ling'er said makes sense, but..." The King of the Southern Territory nodded, still a little worried. After all, he still preferred 'peace is the most important' in his heart.
So…
Even if Fang Zhengzheng is really short-lived, Princess Shanyu's suggestion is not acceptable. What's more, whether Fang Zhengzheng will die or not is still a question mark.
To put it bluntly, if Fang Zhengzheng could leave him a grandson before his death, that would not be an unacceptable thing.
"Father, please rest assured. I will go to Yanjing City with His Highness the Crown Prince, and I will bring my father and sister's wishes with me when the time comes!" Of course, Shan Ling could see what the King of the South Territory was thinking, and persuaded him again. .
"Ling'er wants to go to Yanjing City in person?" After hearing this, the King of the Southern Territory suddenly thought. As the King of the Southern Territory, he certainly knows what the art of controlling people is.
Shan Ling, as the crown prince of the Southern Territory, had long been proficient in the art of controlling people, so after a moment, the King of the Southern Territory also understood the meaning of Shan Ling's words.
Fang Zhengzheng now has merit.
If this matter hadn't happened, he would have been promoted to a higher position and become more important when he returned to Daxia.
If he directly proposes marriage to Daxia in this state, then even if Fang Zhengzheng is forced to come to the Southern Territory, it will be a problem if he does not do his best.
However, if pressure can be exerted first, Daxia can punish Fang Zhengzheng for a serious crime.
then…
Then he gave her the grace to marry Princess Shan Yu to Fang Zhengyi. Although it was still a marriage, Fang Zhengzheng must be grateful in his heart.
"Yes, this matter is related to the reputation of our Shan family, and the Southern Territory is now at the beginning of the war. My father is busy with affairs and cannot make a sound. It is only appropriate for me to go there." Shan Ling affirmed.
When Princess Shan Yu heard this, her lips opened again, and she wanted to say something more, but she saw the King of the South Territory gently shaking his head at her.
"Well, since Ling'er is willing to go to Yanjing in person for this matter, it is of course the best thing. I just don't know what His Highness the Crown Prince means?" The King of Nanyu nodded. He didn't know what Princess Shanyu wanted to say. What, but it is not appropriate to send Princess Shan Yu to propose marriage.
Therefore, Shanling is indeed the best choice right now.
"Of course there is no problem!" Prince Lin Tianrong nodded quickly and also had no objection.
"In that case, you might as well ask His Highness the Crown Prince to take more care of you along the way!" The King of the Southern Region said politely when he saw Crown Prince Lin Tianrong nodding.
"The King of the Southern Territory is too polite. The Crown Prince is extremely powerful. It is only right that I rely on the Crown Prince to take care of me!" Crown Prince Lin Tianrong smiled, his eyes twinkling.
The palace became peaceful again.
However, there is something strange about this peace.
The chiefs and generals of the Southern Territory did not speak again, because after this battle in the Southern Territory, it was really not appropriate to start another war in a short period of time.
The talented people in Daxia wanted to say something, but after feeling the atmosphere around them, they swallowed the words that came to their lips.
only…
When their eyes accidentally fell on Fang Zhengzheng, who was still "sleeping" soundly on the bed, they all felt envious in their hearts.
It is unprecedented to climb into the bed of a dignified princess and sleep as peacefully as now!
…
The next day, it was still dark.
The team headed for Yanjing City came out in great force. After all, after such a thing happened, it was obviously not appropriate to continue holding the banquet.
A group of Daxia talents volunteered to clear the way ahead. Under the leadership of some soldiers from the Southern Territory who were familiar with the terrain, they all rode ponies and worked hard to clear away the ferocious beasts on the road.
Prince Lin Tianrong, Prince Shanling and others were walking at the back of the team.
As the majestic prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, he was naturally surrounded by bodyguards, not many, eight in total, all wearing robes.
It can be seen that these eight people are not ordinary court guards, but retainers.
Doorman.
It has never been a new thing in the famous families of the Great Xia Dynasty. Every famous family will have some retainers.
These people have unique skills. Although they do not belong to official positions in the court, they can do many things on behalf of famous families.
The imperial court also had special regulations for diners.
For example, different aristocratic families have different numbers of disciples according to their merits to the court. Generally speaking, even for truly famous families, the number of disciples is not too many.
Moreover, every retainer maintained by aristocratic families needs to go to the court to make separate notes.
As for the reason…
Of course for safety reasons.
Eight people, all around fifty years old, with a little white hair on their heads, were guarded by eight people like this, coupled with the strength of Shan Ling in the late stage of reincarnation realm.
And behind Prince Lin Tianrong, Su Qing was wearing a black official uniform.
Such a group of people can basically walk sideways as long as they don't encounter god-king-level ferocious beasts in the Southern Territory.
so…
If you bring along an "unconscious" Fang Zhengzheng, there will naturally be no problem.
Prince Lin Tianrong thought so, so he kept his eyes slightly closed along the way, looking extremely relaxed, while Su Qing was equally relaxed.
As for Shan Ling, he seemed to be thinking about something.
From before dawn, they walked all the way to noon and ate some food. By dusk, the group was already some distance away from the Holy Mountain City.
Some dark red sunset shines down.
Through the curtain blown up by the horse's turn, it shined on Fang Zhengzheng's face, making it look a little rosy.
At this time, the team finally stopped. Shan Ling took the lead in tightening the horse's reins, while Prince Lin Tianrong, eight disciples and Su Qing also stopped advancing in a tacit understanding.
"Your Highness, do you still remember the agreement between you and me?" Shan Ling spoke.
"Of course I remember." Prince Lin Tianrong nodded and looked at the slightly revealed figure in the carriage with a somewhat feminine look.
"Okay, in that case, I, the Southern Territory, must abide by the contract and maintain peace between Daxia and the Southern Territory within ten years, but I also have a condition!" Shan Ling continued.
"What do you want the prince to do with Fang Zhengzheng?" Prince Lin Tianrong raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile.
"Kill, I will never let my sister marry such a person!" Shan Ling's tone was cold.
"That's it... please do it." The smile on Prince Lin Tianrong's face did not diminish, as if he had expected Shan Ling to make such a decision.
"If I kill Fang Zhengzheng, how will His Highness prepare to explain to the Holy Emperor?"
"Fang Zhengzheng knew that he could not escape the blame for being frivolous towards the princess, so he did not want to return to the capital. He took the opportunity to kidnap the prince on the way. The prince had no choice but to agree. Then, Fang Zhengzheng took advantage of the opportunity to escape, but due to his weakened strength, he accidentally fell into the vicious beast When I wanted to save him, it was already too late... Your Majesty, do you think this is a good reason?" Prince Lin Tianrong said calmly.
"It's wonderful!" Shan Ling nodded.
"Then the place where the accident happened should not be on the road, but in the bushes, right?" Prince Lin Tianrong looked at the hidden woods around him.
"That's right!" Shan Ling nodded again.
"Your Majesty, please." Prince Lin Tianrong pointed to the woods politely.
"Okay, let me clear the way for His Royal Highness." Shan Ling did not refuse and took the lead into the woods.
The eight disciples following Prince Lin Tianrong, as well as Su Qing, also led the carriage carrying Fang Zhengzheng in.
The sunset gradually sets.
The black night slowly began to cover.
Dozens of talented men had already run a certain distance while competing with each other. Seeing that it was getting late, they all left their tents in advance, waiting for the arrival of Prince Lin Tianrong and others.
As for safety.
Of course they don't need to think about it.
What they didn't know was that in the woods about a mile behind them, there were more than ten figures standing quietly at this moment, and in addition, there was a carriage.
The curtain was lifted.
Fang Zhengzheng's body was also exposed.
He had already put on clothes, but the expression on his face was very calm, and his body didn't move at all.
"The prince's methods are really brilliant." Prince Lin Tianrong said.
"Both each other!" Shan Ling nodded.
"The prince is really not prepared to let him die?" Prince Lin Tianrong looked at Fang Zhengyi, who was still unconscious, and the smile on his face became wider and wider.
"I, Shan Ling, never do things sloppily. Moreover, after taking this medicine, his spirit is actually sober. In other words, he can hear you and me talking from beginning to end." Shan Ling shook his head. Shake his head.
"That's it." Prince Lin Tianrong's expression was slightly startled, but he was quickly relieved.
Shan Ling said nothing more.
He took a step forward and placed one foot on the frame of the carriage. At the same time, a cold knife was flashed out.
"Fang Zhengyi, I can only blame you for being too greedy. When you made this request for ten gold mines, you should have expected such an ending!" Shan Ling's lips parted lightly.
His voice was not loud, but his hand was very steady. The bright long knife was filled with a strong cold air, and a pair of tiger eyes stared at Fang Zhengzheng tightly, like a bloodthirsty beast.
The chill rises and the sword falls.
blood…
The moment the sword light fell, it splashed into the air like a bright flower, and then slowly fell on the carriage. (To be continued.)
