Ning Chen's insistence made the eldest grandson frown, but she didn't force it too much. She knew this kid better than anyone, and it was basically harder than killing him to make him submit.
"Since you don't want to say it, this palace doesn't force it, but when necessary, I hope you can help Daxia once in the face of this palace."
The eldest grandson's words have already taken a lot of steps back. Naturally, Ning Chen is not really ignorant, ruthless and unscrupulous, nodded, and said, "Miss, please rest assured."
After the words fell, Ning Chen pondered for a moment, and asked a little puzzled, "Niangniang, did Daxia ever send someone to assassinate the military adviser of Beimeng Royal Court?"
In his opinion, this kind of personal ability is extremely powerful, and the opponent who can even decide the outcome of a war is actually the best solution. Just send someone to kill the key figures of the opponent.
He does not deny that Fan Lingyue is so powerful that it is scary, but no matter how powerful she is, she is only a wise man, not a congenital, and there is always the possibility of being killed.
The eldest grandson was startled, then shook his head, "Not yet"
Ning Chen felt helpless, no wonder that Da Xia lost again and again in this war, the opponent has used all means, Tucheng, Lianheng, it is estimated that Beimeng can't escape the assassination of Emperor Xia, but Daxia is still in the original Step on the ground, it is strange not to lose.
In fact, war is fought with money, manpower, and intrigue.
In his understanding, conspiracy and intrigue are largely equivalent to shamelessness. Whoever is willing to be shameless will do anything to gain the upper hand in the war.
"Have the third prince and tenth prince ever been placed under house arrest?" Ning Chen was a little unwilling and continued to ask.
"Neither." The eldest grandson shook his head and replied.
"..." Ning Chen was completely disappointed, the rebellion in the seven cities was about to come to the imperial city, and there was still no reaction here. Although the two princes were not sure whether they were the masterminds behind them, it was always right to lock them up.
"Niangniang, at this time, it's actually possible to not compete for some means for the time being," Ning Chen reminded politely.
The eldest grandson nodded solemnly, because she was careless. After Emperor Xia's accident, the Third Duke was in charge of the court, and among the Three Dukes, Tai Shi, who was in charge of the state affairs, was the head of the Confucian school, and the most important thing was morality and etiquette. Naturally, he couldn't do these things.
"Ning Chen, you're really full of bad water," Liming suddenly interjected next to her and said.
"Haha" Ning Chen touched his nose embarrassedly, didn't he, he felt the same way.
The eldest grandson smiled helplessly, and immediately asked, "Ning Chen, what do you think about this war?" Ning Chen thought about it and said, "Looking at the current situation, the Royal Court of Beimeng is undoubtedly the biggest enemy of Daxia, Yongye. The Divine Religion is second, and the Seven Cities Rebellion is the next, but the persimmon has to be soft, and neither the Northern Mongolian Royal Court nor the Eternal Night Divine Religion will fight back in a day or two.
Therefore, solving the chaos in the seven cities is the most urgent and the most important thing."
"What's the solution?" The eldest grandson asked again.
The best way is to secretly kill the Third Prince, Tenth Prince and Prince Yue. Of course, Ning Chen only dared to think about this in his heart. "Divided, and then defeated one by one", Ning Chen continued, "Since the seven cities did not rebel at the same time, and there were even three cities that rebelled after the disappearance of Emperor Xia, it means that the opinions of the seven cities are not unified. , and the man behind
It also only has the right to influence the ability of the seven cities without the right to order." "If you want to be the guardian of the dragon, you have to live with your life, control the two princes and a prince, and then the three cities with the least firm will. Coercion and enticing, even the position of Marquis of Wu, gold medals to avoid death, Danshu iron coupons will do anything, as long as there are
If a city can succeed, the thing about stabbing a knife in the back can be handed over to it." "A knife is enough to stab it once. No matter who is the most hated, it is a traitor, and the one who fears the most is a traitor. It attracted the siege and mutual suspicion of the six cities, and the rest was to spread rumors, and the military advisers in Northern Mongolia were very concerned about this.
Very good at it and almost killed me"
"Of course, when this betrayal city is under siege, Da Xia must go and save it, and it will be done with great fanfare. The world knows it. Since then, it will be difficult for the other six cities to remain unshakable."
"That's all I can think of for now, I'll add more later when I think of it."
Ning Chen's mouth was dry and he wanted to beg for a cup of tea, but found that the eldest grandson and Qingming were not looking right, they looked at him like a monster.
"What's the matter, did I say something wrong again?" Ning Chen thought back, he didn't say anything outrageous.
"Who did you learn all this intrigue from?" The eldest grandson returned to his senses and said in a strange tone.
"Haha" Ning Chen smiled awkwardly, too lazy to make up nonsense again, and said, "With an old Taoist priest"
"Ling Ning, write these words to Duke Jing Wu." The eldest grandson ignored his nonsense, glanced at Li Ning, and made a decisive decision.
Although Ning Chen's words were a bit sinister and straightforward, they were not crude and rational, and he used extraordinary methods at the right time. Duke Jing Wu was not a pedantic and ignorant person, and he would definitely come up with a more practical and feasible method.
"Yes" Lime nodded, respectfully.
"Report!"
At this moment, a hurried voice came from outside the door. Immediately, he knelt down in front of the door with a sonorous sound, and said eagerly, "There is an urgent report on the front line, please meet the Empress."
When the eldest grandson heard this, he immediately got up and opened the door, and asked solemnly, "What's the matter!"
When Ning Chen saw the blood-stained general in front of him, he couldn't help but groan in his heart, feeling that something was wrong.
"I tell the Empress, the three assassins attacked the military camp last night, the two generals died tragically, and the Marquis of Taiping was seriously injured!"
"what!"
The sudden bad news made the eldest grandson stagger under his feet. After many days of exhaustion and worry, his eyes darkened, and he fell backwards suddenly.
"Niangniang" Lime was in a hurry, and immediately went up to support the eldest grandson.
"Go to the military camp." The eldest grandson said the last sentence with difficulty, and immediately lost consciousness.
Ning Chen's face was so heavy that water was condensed, this was the worst result.
He did not expect that even the Wuhou of Daxia was assassinated. There are very few people in the world who can assassinate Wuhou. Except for the few congenitals, the rest can be counted with their fingers.
Half an hour later, the carriage with carved fence set off from Qinghe Hou's Mansion and headed all the way to the Taiping Hou barracks in the north.
Three days later, the carriage, which was rushing around day and night, finally arrived at the barracks, and the eldest grandson, who was still very weak, got off the car and walked towards Taipinghou's camp without saying a word.
Qing Ning pushed Ning Chen to follow, with a hint of worry on their faces. They knew very well how much the assassination of the Marquis of Taiping had hit the eldest grandson. Empress had been unable to eat for several days.
"My lady, a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand thousand years!"
The arrival of the eldest grandson surprised all the soldiers in front of the camp, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted.
"flat body"
The eldest grandson was worried about his elder brother's injury, and said something casually, and immediately opened the tent and walked in.
The scene that caught his eye made the eldest grandson stagger and almost fainted again. Fortunately, Lime was paying attention and immediately stepped forward to help him.
On the bed in the tent, the Marquis of Taiping was lying there with a pale face. On the left chest, there was a deep wound that could see the bone reaching the rib cage. The medical officer accompanying the army was changing the medicine. When he saw the eldest grandson coming in, he quickly knelt down.
"Uh" the eldest grandson stepped forward, with severe pain in her heart, and she didn't see it for just a few days, and something unexpected happened to her.
"How is Marquis Taiping's injury?" Lime asked.
"Xiaguan has tried his best to diagnose and treat, but Lord Hou's injury is still not getting better." The medical officer trembled with embarrassment and fear on his face.
"Get up, keep changing the medicine!"
Changsun suppressed the sadness in his heart, forced himself to restore his strong side, and shouted in a deep voice.
"Thank you madam." The doctor stood up in panic, and immediately continued to cleanse and change the dressing for Taipinghou.
Looking at the bloody gauze washed from the eldest brother's wound, the eldest grandson's heart became more and more painful. There was no shortage of panacea in the army.
On the wheelchair, Ning Chen looked at the wound on Taipinghou's chest, narrowed his eyes, and said, "It's a sword injury."
Lime also nodded, it was indeed a sword injury, there was nothing wrong.
"Is it made by Beimeng Royal Court?" Lime wondered. Ning Chen shook his head and said, "It's not like, there are very few people in Beimeng King Ting who are good at swords, and even their innate doesn't use swords. Although Si Mingjian uses swords, it is impossible for him to injure Lord Hou. In this way, and I took his sword, the breath is different
too much"
Lime's expression became more solemn. If it weren't for the Northern Mongolian Royal Court, Daxia would have another terrifying opponent.
In fact, Ning Chen already had the object of suspicion in his heart, but there was no evidence, so he couldn't be sure.
According to what the general who reported the letter thought before, the three assassins were all sword-wielding people. The place with the most sword-wielding people in the world was Jiancheng, and the only swordsman who could assassinate Daxia Wuhou was Jiancheng.
The sword of Jiancheng had received three disciples, and now they are all above the ninth-rank powerhouse. If they join forces to assassinate a Wuhou of Daxia, the chance of success is not small.
The heart of harming others is indispensable, and the heart of defending others is indispensable. Even if he takes the belly of a villain with the heart of a gentleman, Jiancheng has to guard against it.
This can't be said clearly, Ning Chen can only whisper to Qing Ning's side and whisper his suspicions.
When Qing Ning heard it, she was surprised at first, then walked beside the eldest grandson and whispered a few words.
The eldest grandson was in heartache, and the authorities were obsessed, so he didn't expect so much, but when he heard Lime's reminder, he immediately reacted.
She knew the origin of Jiancheng better than anyone, and she immediately confirmed this suspicion.
Although it can't be 100% sure, there are eight to nine out of ten cases that Jiancheng did.
Unexpectedly, the woman in the Beimeng Royal Court also persuaded Jiancheng to take action and repeatedly assassinate the important officials of Daxia, which is to completely destroy the foundation of Daxia.
With a wave of his hand, the eldest grandson sent back all the people in the tent, including the officer who had just changed the medicine for the Marquis of Taiping, and immediately said solemnly:
"Instruct Ziyang Hou Yanjia to monitor Jiancheng's movements. If there is any trouble, report it immediately!"
"Yes" Lime took the order and walked out quickly.
After giving the order, the eldest grandson felt tired for a while. In just one month, Daxia was surrounded by enemies on all sides, the Beimeng Royal Court in the north, the Eternal Night God Sect in the west, the Sword City in the east, and even in Daxia. Rebellion of the Seven Cities.
The only thing that made people happy was that Zhenji Nation, which had been the most clamoring in the past, was much more peaceful this time. The loss of 20,000 warhorses was too big a blow to Zhenji Nation, and it was difficult to have the confidence to raise troops in a short period of time. Thinking of this, the eldest grandson looked at Ning Chen with softer eyes. Fortunately, at this most difficult time, this kid was still by her side...
