Su Jingnian returned to Lin Muhua and said: "It's still too early to talk about abandoning Jinzhou. Moreover, in order to realize her 'great plan', the Li family will not care about the lives and deaths of my soldiers and people in the Northern Regions. In other words, the more my Northern Regions country was originally consumed and damaged by Dajin, the more conducive it would be to her plan to ascend to the Great Treasure in the future. Lin is too guarded and settled, this king is different from the Li family. This king is the lord of the northern region, how can he abandon his people and soldiers?"

Lin Muhua nodded violently, and his face was relieved.

Clenched his fists and said: "With the words of the prince, Mu Hua and the soldiers and civilians of Jinzhou are determined to repay the death!"

Wang Lan took over the handle and said to the two: "Lin Taishou got his wish today and got the promise of the prince. What a blessing. ”

Lin Muhua didn't know what the old man meant, and only cared about himself being happy.

Su Jingnian and Feng Chuanlun had no words, and with their understanding of the old prime minister, it seemed that he still had something to say.

Stroking his white beard, Wang Lan said, "Lord Wang, I wonder if I can also make a promise to the old man?"

Su Jingnian had a bad premonition in his heart.

He replied cautiously: "Tell me what promise you want from this king?"

"Old and courageous. Please ask the prince to sincerely swear under the gaze of the ancestors of the royal family of Daqi and the heroic spirits of the ancestors of the previous kings of the Northern Regions, no matter whether he lives or dies, he will never let the princess of the Northern Regions return Dajin after leaving her face. If this promise is violated, everyone will be punished. ”

Wang Lan clenched her hands into fists and raised them above her head. So I asked Su Jingnian for his life.

"Prime Minister?!What do you mean by that?"

"Prime Minister, what do you mean by this???

Feng Chuanlun and Lin Muhua, who were standing on the side, were shocked by Wang Lan's bold speech. Both of them couldn't figure it out, why did Wang Lan really force Su Jingnian to make such an unclear promise at such a life-and-death moment?

Daikin is the princess's mother country. insisted that the prince personally agree, no matter whether the princess lived or died, she was not allowed to return to her mother country. In the eyes of the second general, Wang Lan's request was really a bit impersonal and difficult for the strongman.

"My affair with her should be the king's private and family affairs. Prime Minister, why do you need to intervene too much?"

The kindness and kindness of the elders on his face had faded, and Wang Lan's expression was solemn and stern.

"If it weren't for this letter from the Li family, the old man would still be able to continue to connive at the prince in the name of 'family and private affairs', for the sake of a woman, and then 'mess around' for a few days. But even with this letter, the prince should also understand which end is light and which end is heavy. It's time, the prince should restrain his thoughts, and behave in a disciplined manner. ”

"The king doesn't understand. Didn't the prime minister repeatedly hint that he supported the doctor's performance and gave up the princess at the necessary moment? Finally cut off the excuse and excuse of Dajinnan's offense? How could it be that today, the prime minister really turned his back, and the princess was not allowed to return Dajin regardless of life or death?

"yes, yes. Mu Hua really couldn't figure it out! Why did the prime minister, the water general, and the adults in the court like to keep an eye on the princess? As the prime minister said, in Mu Hua's view, the princess was just a beautiful and elegant woman with indifferent wisdom. Niangniang has nothing to do with the Zongmiao Society and the war?"

Lin Muhua also cried out for Mo Ruoli.

Feng Chuanlun did not speak for Mo Ruoli. After Lin Muhua spoke, he went to see Wang Lan.

Laughing dryly, Wang Lan said, "After the battle of the 'Snow Field Battle Method', the princess has already proved her great wisdom to us. Plotting is enough to □□ and consolidating the country, and plotting is enough to turn things around. Such a poor wisdom, if used by my northern region, is indeed like a tiger with wings. But if it is used by the enemy, it will be endless. This is the first reason to keep the princess.

Second, it is for Jinzhou. The letter from the Li family has made it very clear that he wants the prince to go south as soon as possible without delay. But if our black armor army wants to raise troops to the south, it must hold the border city and Jinzhou, two key places. Otherwise, once the rear is lost, the entire northern region will inevitably fall into a desperate place. To keep the princess is to retain her great wisdom. If Niangniang is willing to continue to dedicate her strength to the Northern Regions and the prince, her wisdom is the most solid shield in Jinzhou. One day, if the mother does not want to be the enemy of the mother country, it is also forgivable. Then, this great wisdom must remain in my Northern Territory Formation like its master, and must not fall into the hands of the enemy. Emperor Jin waved his army to the south, and the reason given to the world was to slander the identity of the princess, who was the eldest princess who had been missing for a long time. vividly acted in a bitter drama of sister-brother love and sending troops for her sister. Therefore, as long as the princess is still in Jinzhou and in my northern region, then Dajin will have no reason to withdraw his troops. Otherwise, wouldn't Emperor Jin slap himself in the face of the world? As long as the Jin army does not retreat and confronts our army in Jinzhou, then in the near future, the prince will lead his troops south, and Dajin will become the best way for our northern region and the prince to retreat.

Once he repented of his family, he did not recognize today's promise of 'dividing the world into two'. Then, when the prince gives an order, the gate of Jinzhou will be opened. Without the obstruction of the Black Armor of the Northern Regions, the Dajin Iron Cavalry will be unimpeded and trample on the land of Daqi. Until everything is destroyed and Tianjing is burned!"

“。。。 ”

Lin Muhua was speechless at this point, and looked straight at Wang Lan. At the last moment, as the parent official of Jinzhou City, he was still racking his brains, thinking about how to repel Dajin's attack. At this moment, as the minister of the Northern Regions, he did agree with Wang Lan's opinion. Dragging the Jin army in Jinzhou was the only way for the king of the Northern Regions to lead the army south, leaving room for advance and retreat.

Sitting in a wheelchair, Wang Lan is a thin old man. But at the top of the overall situation in Kyushu, the prime minister is so majestic and forward-looking.

Taking a deep breath, Su Jingnian still spoke in a light tone. The rolling waves in her chest were covered up by her calm.

"The king has said it. Her affairs with this king are the private and family affairs of this king. She goes or stays, and she doesn't bother others to worry about it. The two of us have our own decisions. The Prime Minister's request will not be granted by the King. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the king will personally lead the troops south to the appointment of the Li family. At that time, the city defense of Jinzhou still needs to be defended by three people. That's all for today. ”

After that, Su Jingnian withdrew.

Wang Lan saw that she didn't eat oil and salt, and didn't listen to persuasion.

He hurriedly said: "Lord, although the red face is good, the world is great! You can't give up the great cause of your family and country for the sake of a woman!"

Su Jingnian didn't look back and left.

"Congratulations to the prince. Feng Chuanlun and Lin Muhua said behind her.

When she disappeared at the end of the city wall, the conversation between the three of them resumed.

Wang Lan wants to win the support of Feng Chuanlun and Lin Muhua. These two hold the power of the army, and as a last resort, the three of them can join forces to balance Su Jingnian's royal power.

Lin Muhua was unwilling. How could he be an enemy of the princess whom he admired so much? After a car of excuses, he told a little lie and hurried away.

The two are left, the old prime minister and General Feng.

Wang Lan understands Feng Chuanlun's character and knows very well how to convince him.

"General. If the first king is still alive, but will he allow the prince to ignore the great treasure of Kyushu for the sake of a woman? When the first king was dying, only the general would accompany him. Presumably, the first king entrusted the Northern Regions and the prince to the general. Our courtiers are the so-called food of the king, the matter of loyalty to the king. In the face of major issues of right and wrong, we must not be stubborn and stupid. Otherwise, if we delay the opportunity for our lord to achieve the hegemony of the Thousand Ages, what face will we have to go down to the Nine Springs to meet the first king?!"

Feng Chuanlun listened to Wang Lan's words, and stood for a long time.

Back then, the first king was indeed for the queen mother and the prince, so he rode out of the city alone and died alone. He did not want to tarnish the reputation of his wife and children because of his own mistakes.

If this is the time, the past reappears.

Between the world and the princess, there is only one choice. So, what kind of decision will the prince make? Will he be like the previous king? What about leaving only an eternal mystery for future generations?

This father and son are so similar, but so different.

The empty sleeves were blown up by the evening breeze and floated in the air. The pain of losing an arm is still faint to this day.

reminded Feng Chuanlun that it was here that day that he lost Su Chenmiao and lost his king.

"I will send someone to secretly watch the Taishou Mansion, and if there is anything going on at the princess's place, we will all know immediately. This time, I will not sit idly by, let alone repeat the mistakes of the past. ”

"Okay!" Wang Lan said excitedly.

With Feng Chuanlun's help, Wang Lan was confident that he could completely trap Mo Ruoli in Jinzhou.

The old prime minister trembled and tried to get up from his wheelchair. The knee injury had healed for a long time, but he was too old to stand.

"Prime Minister!" Feng Chuanlun saw this and hurriedly went to support him.

Although it is one-armed, General Feng's arm is still very strong and solid.

With the support of Feng Chuanlun, Wang Lan stood up.

With tears in his old eyes, Wang Lan tightly grabbed Feng Chuanlun's arm.

"General, when the prince and the general capture Tianjing. The old man's old life, according to his words, returned the young general!"

When Feng Chuanlun heard this, he also shed tears on the spot.

Shaking his head and said: "If you can help my lord achieve hegemony, Xiao Fengquan will definitely smile." The prime minister has done his best for the Northern Regions, how can Chuanlun still be demanding of the prime minister? Cheng is quite a noble body, after my black armor army breaks through Tianjing, he will assist the prince, and he still needs to be the prime minister. ”

Leaving the city wall, Su Jingnian walked alone in the night.

Jinzhou City has begun to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Everywhere there was a lot of noise, and cars and horses flowed.

Seventeen appeared from the shadows and came to Su Jingnian's side.

"Lord Wang. ”

"Say it. ”

Su Jingnian did not stop, listening to the seventeenth report as he walked.

Seventeen According to the usual practice, all the things that happened to Mo Ruoli today were explained.

Among them, there are some additional things about Jiu'er. said that the two villagers who claimed to be from Liangshan who met in Bailu Tower today were very strange and suspicious. Listening to the report from the dark guard, after the county lord saw these two people, although there was nothing unusual at that time, when he returned to the Taishou Mansion, he had a big quarrel with General Shui. Seventeen suspects that the identities of these two villagers are not very simple.

Su Jingnian agreed with Seventeen's statement. At the time of the war, how could it be such a coincidence that some villagers came to the door? It also happened to be a letter written by the people of Liangshan to Jiu'er? It is necessary to think clearly that Jiu'er's appearance in Jinzhou was a temporary dispatch that had only occurred in the army in recent days. Earlier, she was the main general who guarded the border city. This matter is known to everyone in the Northern Regions. Even if the villagers in Liangshan want to send a letter, they will send it to the border city. How could a letter be entrusted to a merchant who came to Jinzhou to do business?

Seventeen listened to Su Jingnian's analysis and broke out in a cold sweat. bluntly said that he was negligent, and he actually gave the thief a chance to get close to Jiu'er.

Su Jingnian didn't blame him, and asked him to immediately disperse the people and search the whole city. Catch the two small works who are pretending to be villagers as soon as possible.

Seventeen commands. Before leaving, he also told Su Jingnian about the last thing that happened around Mo Ruoli today. It was Zhong Hui who personally led the two chefs in the house to visit Mo Ruoli. also praised General Zhong for caring for the Lord and caring for the princess. Why didn't I find out earlier that this humble and easy-going general still has such a careful side.

Hearing this, Su Jingnian's eyes obviously changed.

"Check this king well, whether there are these two cooks in Zhong Hui's mansion. Regardless of whether there is or not, additional manpower will be sent to monitor the Taishou Mansion and Zhong Hui's Mansion day and night. ”
