Zhenji Kingdom lost, not only 20,000 horses, but also the ability to raise troops again within ten years.
The agreement in black and white, plus the seal of the Lord of the True Kingdom, it is impossible for the True Kingdom to go back on it.
The most important thing is that Daxia is the strongest country in the world. It makes sense. If anyone dares to go back on it, the 200,000 Black Feather Army of the Duke of Buyi will no longer be as simple as guarding.
The rest is the work of the ministers of Daxia. Most of the Wuhou of Daxia are guarding the outside, and the rest in the imperial city are basically only some civilian generals and Confucian officials, but it is enough to deal with these things.
Ning Chen completed his own affairs, aside from cultivating, he was waiting for Emperor Xia's will.
Finally, on the third day, Emperor Xia's decree came, and the daughter of Prince Hua, Xia Miaoyu, was specially named Princess Puuyu, and she entered the Kingdom of True Extremes to be with her.
The eldest grandson and Qing Ning were both startled when they heard the imperial decree, especially the eldest grandson, who was even more shocked when he was angry!
After staying in the palace for such a long time, how could she not guess the reason? Ning Chen's name was obviously added on a temporary basis, but it was not necessary. When Emperor Xia added this, it was obvious that someone was begging for mercy.
In this palace, there was only one person Ning Chen could touch and influence the Emperor Xia, the Ninth Princess.
"very good!"
In the main hall of Weiyang Palace, the eldest grandson stood in the hall, his face was blue, and he said sternly, "Come here, go and bring Ning Chen"
"Let me go," Lime asked worriedly in her heart.
"You stay here." The eldest grandson was angry, and even took a much stricter tone towards Liming. She knew that Ning Chen and Liming had a good relationship, so she couldn't let him go.
After a while, Ning Chen came slowly, his face was calm, there was no shy smile in the past, and there was no fear.
"Queen's Lady"
Ning Chen knelt down for the first time and respectfully kowtowed.
Seeing Ning Chen coming, the eldest grandson was even more angry, he slammed the table, and said angrily, "Are you so impatient to leave?"
Ning Chen raised his head and said calmly, "Niangniang, you must also know that my personality is not suitable for the palace. As long as I stay here, I will cause trouble sooner or later."
"Empress Xia, the dignified queen of this palace, can't protect you! What are you afraid of!" The more he thought about it, the more angry he wanted to throw the teacup on the table on the former's face.
"I'm afraid that someday I'll get into a big disaster, and the first person to cut off my head is you, Empress." Ning Chen sighed softly and said.
"Bang!" The eldest grandson was impatient, grabbed the teacup and threw it at Ning Chen, with a slap, the teacup hit his forehead, spattering blood.
"You are so disappointed in this palace"
Seeing the blood on Ning Chen's face but still unwilling to lower his head, Changsun's whole body was trembling with anger, his eyes closed, and he said in disappointment.
"The Nine Princesses are here"
At this moment, Xia Xinyu came over and was shocked again when she saw this scene as soon as she entered the hall.
She thought that her mother would be angry, but she did not expect her mother to be so angry.
"Kneel down!"
Changsun suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Xia Xinyu, and said sternly.
Xia Xinyu's face changed slightly, she knelt down obediently, and she was shocked. It was the first time she saw her mother get so angry.
In this palace, everyone puts on a disguise for themselves, and their real emotions are rarely shown. The mother's feelings mean that they are really angry.
"You are so courageous. The queen mother has cultivated you for so many years. I didn't expect your scheming to move to the queen mother."
The eldest grandson looked at Xia Xinyu and was furious. The person beside her was really good!
Furious to the extreme, Fang Cheng hated, Changsun hated both of them, hated himself, hated their indisputableness, and hated his own ignorance.
However, the boat is done and the imperial decree has been issued. Even if she comes forward, Xia Huang can't take back the imperial decree. Jun has no jokes, and it is impossible for anyone to change it.
The delivery date was scheduled for the end of the month, and it was less than 20 days from now, which meant that Ning Chen would not be leaving the palace within 20 days.
A flash of exhaustion flashed in Zhangsun's heart, and he didn't want to pursue anything more. He sat on the main seat and waved his hand, "Since you choose to help him out of the palace, then you will be responsible for the remaining five months of grounding. "
"Queen Mother" Xia Xinyu said in shock, pale.
"Retreat!" The eldest grandson slapped the table and snapped.
"Yes" Xia Xinyu bowed reluctantly, and immediately got up and left.
This time, she miscalculated.
Xia Xinyu left, Ning Chen was the only one kneeling on the seat, Qing Ning stood aside, but she didn't dare to intercede. She knew the empress's disappointment, and even she didn't understand Ning Chen's actions.
Even if he wants to leave the palace, with the grace of the Empress, he has been begging many times, and it may not be successful. There is no need to rush to leave the palace so desperately. Looking at Ning Chen kneeling down in front of him, blood dripping from his face, the eldest grandson remembered the scene after scene since he entered the palace, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and said solemnly, "This palace will give you one last chance, if you admit your mistake. , to be honest after sending a kiss
Come back, I can pretend that nothing happened."
Ning Chen sighed deeply, without saying a word, the matter has come to this, how can he turn around again.
If he doesn't want to die in the palace, he must leave the palace as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, he couldn't tell the eldest grandson about this, so he could only keep it secret.
"good very good!"
The eldest grandson got up in anger, and immediately walked out of the hall with a livid face.
Qing Ning glanced at Ning Chen, who was kneeling on the ground in a complicated way, and left with her eldest grandson without saying a word.
Ning Chen knelt on the ground without saying a word, just kept kneeling like this, with bitterness, guilt, and sadness in his heart.
From the sunset onwards, the eldest grandson’s bedroom was still lit. In the main hall of Weiyang, Ning Chen still hadn’t gotten up, and the maid came several times, put on the candles and left in a hurry, no one dared to stay for a moment.
Neither of the two were willing to give in half a step, the eldest grandson was waiting for Ning Chen to admit his mistake, but in exchange, he was disappointed again and again.
It's not that Ning Chen doesn't want to admit his mistake, but he can't admit his mistake, because he really can't come back, he can lie to the world, but he doesn't want to lie to the eldest grandson.
In front of the back garden, Qing Ning stood in her room, looking at the brightly lit main hall and the eldest grandson's bedroom, her heart was extremely complicated. She knew that both the empress and Ning Chen were stubborn people. This time, it was true. There is no turning back.
She couldn't understand why Ning Chen's character would choose this path.
Not only Li Ning was puzzled, but even the eldest grandson in the palace was wondering why, not long after Ning Chen entered the palace, he was still an easy-to-understand person, smart, proud, repaying gratitude, and sometimes even clinging to a bit silly.
However, what was it that made him so eager to leave the palace
Time passed by, the eldest grandson and Qing Ning didn't sleep all night, and Ning Chen also knelt in the Weiyang main hall all night. Those who didn't understand still couldn't understand why, but those who understood could never say it.
It was dawn, and the eldest grandson had something to deal with. When he left the Weiyang Palace, Qing Ning accompanied him. When he passed by the main hall of Weiyang, the eldest grandson paused for a while, but he still did not stop.
What happened in Weiyang Palace was quickly spread. Everyone in the palace knew that the Empress was furious yesterday. The little eunuch who has been in the limelight recently has been kneeling in the main hall of Weiyang Palace all night, but no one knows the reason.
In addition, another matter has also attracted a lot of attention. It is said that this time the person who was with the relatives was not appointed by Emperor Xia, but was requested by Xia Miaoyu, the daughter of Prince Hua. .
Xia Miaoyu has been named a princess, and all matters of marriage must be in accordance with the specifications of a royal princess to marry. The eldest grandson is the queen of Daxia and the head of the harem.
Ning Chen knelt in the main hall of Weiyang, and seemed to be gradually forgotten. Even the palace no longer paid attention to this matter. When he talked about it occasionally, he just sighed secretly, feeling a pity for this once amazing little eunuch.
It is said that the royal family is ruthless. This is the best example. No matter how amazing you are, if you make a mistake, you will be knocked to the dust.
Three days later, Ning Chen, who didn't even get a drop of water, fainted in the hall. After hearing this, the eldest grandson trembled with his hands, but his face showed no emotion.
However, from this day on, whether the eldest grandson was traveling or busy in the Weiyang Palace, he would no longer let Qingming follow her.
Ning Chen fainted not long before he woke up. After adding some water and applying some medicine, there was no problem. Liming came later, looking at the former's pale face and chapped lips, there was a flash of unbearableness on his face, and he reprimanded, "What's wrong with you?"
Ning Chen grinned and said weakly, "It's a last resort, I'm sorry."
"It's not me that you should apologize, it's the mother-in-law." Lime couldn't help but humbly said.
"Ha." Ning Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Must go?"
Seeing this, Lime didn't say more, sighed softly, and asked.
"Must go!"
Ning Chen nodded and replied.
This is his only chance. If he guesses correctly, after the marriage, their group of young eunuchs who have just entered the palace will definitely be reviewed again.
At that time, no one will be able to keep him, and even the reputation of the eldest grandson will be implicated.
Two days later, Ning Chen's body was almost healed. Lime went out of the palace once, and when he came back, he brought a strangely shaped medicinal herb. When he opened the box, he could feel a faint chill.
"Take it," Lime said solemnly.
"What?" Ning Chen had no doubts about him, and when he heard that he had taken it, it was extremely painful, and his whole body felt cold.
"Sky Frost Grass" Lime explained calmly, "Your body is really cold, this Sky Frost Grass will help you refine your foundation and speed up your cultivation."
Ning Chen didn't understand what he heard, and asked curiously, "Is it expensive?"
"No money," Lime replied lightly.
I don't want money, I want Lingyu, but there's no need to tell him.
"From today onwards, I will teach you the movement technique, you'd better prepare yourself mentally"
While speaking, Lime turned around and walked towards the door, "Come with me"
Ning Chen followed, all the way to the back garden, October has come, the garden is full of flowers, and the autumn wind blows, drifting all over the sky.
"good"
As soon as the words fell, Li Ning's body moved, and in an instant, the shadow was like snow flying, turning into a swaying boat in the sky and falling flowers, dancing in the wind, and the leaves did not touch the body.
Ning Chen was stunned watching from the side, what an awesome man.
They are all about the same age, how can there be such a big gap between people.
After a while, Qing Ning stopped, looked at Ning Chen, and asked calmly, "Can you see the pace clearly?"
Ning Chen shook his head sharply, it was strange to see clearly.
Lime didn't care, and continued to ask, "How much do you see clearly?"
"Ha ha"
Ning Chen scratched his head embarrassedly, took two steps forward, and drew a large circle on the ground.
"Just see this step"
"… "
Li Ning's face turned cold, and she suppressed her anger before she didn't go up to beat someone. This is where she first stood.
He stepped forward, kicked the former's right leg, and said angrily, "Single leg, stand, don't let me see you change another leg for an hour"
Ning Chen's pained mouth grinned, but he didn't dare to make a sound of pain.
A quarter of an hour later, Ning Chen already felt numbness in his left leg, and his body shook even more.
However, when he saw Lime with a cold face not far away, he shivered in his heart, but he still stood still with his teeth clenched.
Two quarters of an hour later, Ning Chen didn't seem to be able to feel his left leg. However, the knee was burning with pain. This was an old injury from kneeling before, and it wasn't easy. Qing Ning stood there, indifferent, she could see that Ning Chen's knee injury didn't hurt the bones, even if it hurt, it was caused by this guy.
