Chapter Seventy-Four: Bad News
Ning Chen's insistence made the eldest grandson frown, but she didn't force it too much, she knew this kid better than anyone else, and it was basically more difficult to make him succumb than to kill him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"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 had already taken a lot of steps, and Ning Chen naturally wouldn't really be ruthless and unjust, nodded and said, "Niangniang, please rest assured"
After the words fell, Ning Chen pondered for a moment and asked with a little puzzlement, "Niangniang, has Great Xia sent someone to assassinate the military advisor of the Northern Meng Royal Court?"
In his opinion, this kind of opponent with extremely strong personal ability and can even determine the outcome of a war is actually best solved, just send someone to kill the key people of the other party.
He didn't deny that Fan Lingyue was so powerful that it was terrifying, but no matter how powerful she was, she was just a wise man, not an innate person, and there was always the possibility of being killed.
The eldest grandson was stunned, and then shook his head, "Not yet"
Ning Chen was helpless in his heart, no wonder this war Great Xia lost again and again, the other party had used all means, slaughtering the city, even Heng, it is estimated that the assassination of Emperor Xia Beimeng could not escape the involvement, but the Great Xia side is still standing still, it is strange if he does not lose.
The war is actually fought with money, manpower, and intrigues.
In his understanding, intrigue and intrigue are to a large extent equivalent to shamelessness, and whoever is willing to do everything will be able to gain the first opportunity in the war.
"Have the three princes and the tenth prince ever been under house arrest?" Ning Chen was a little unwilling and continued to ask.
"Neither," the eldest grandson replied, shaking his head.
"......" Ning Chen was completely disappointed, the rebellion in the Seven Cities over there was about to turn against the Imperial City, and there was still no reaction here, although the two princes were not sure whether they were the masterminds behind it, but it was always right to lock them up.
"Niangniang, at this time, you can actually put aside some means for the time being," Ning Chen reminded very tactfully.
The eldest grandson nodded solemnly, she was careless, after Emperor Xia's accident, the three princes supervised the dynasty, and the Taizhi Gong in charge of the government in the three princes was the head of Confucianism, and the most important morality and etiquette were naturally unable to do these things.
"Ning Chen, you really have a bad stomach" Next to him, Lime suddenly interjected and said.
"Hehe" Ning Chen touched his nose embarrassedly, yes, he thought so too.
The eldest grandson smiled helplessly, and then asked, "Ning Chen, what do you think about this war?"
Ning Chen thought for a moment and said, "Looking at the current situation, the Northern Meng Royal Court is undoubtedly the biggest enemy of Great Xia, followed by the Eternal Night Divine Sect, and the Seven Cities Rebellion is again, but the persimmon has to pick up the soft pinch, and the Northern Meng Royal Court and the Eternal Night Divine Sect are not fighting back in a day or two, so solving the Seven Cities Rebellion is the most urgent and top priority."
"What's the solution?" the eldest grandson asked again.
The best way is to secretly kill the third prince, the tenth prince and Prince Yue, of course, this method Ning Chen only dared to think in his heart.
"Divide, and then break them one by one," the words fell, Ning Chen continued, "Since the Seven Cities did not rebel at the same time, and even three cities rebelled after Emperor Xia disappeared, it means that the Seven Cities actually do not have a unified opinion, and the person behind it only has the ability to influence the Seven Cities and does not have the right to command."
"If you want to be a dragon protector, you have to have your life to live, control the two princes and a prince, and then coerce and lure the three cities with the least strong will, and even promise the position of the marquis of Wu, the gold medal to avoid death, the Danshu iron coupon can do anything, as long as one city can succeed, the matter of stabbing the knife in the back can be handed over to it"
"The knife is this thing, one stab is enough, no matter who hates the most is a traitor, and the most feared is also a traitor, a city rebellion will definitely lead to the siege of six cities and mutual suspicion, the rest is to create rumors, this is the military division of Beimeng is very good, and almost killed me"
"Of course, when this betrayed city is besieged, Great Xia must save it, and the fanfare of the rescue is known to the whole world, so it is difficult for the other six cities not to waver."
"I'll think about it so much for the time being, and I'll add it when I think about it later"
Ning Chen's mouth was a little dry when he spoke, and he wanted to beg for a cup of tea to drink, but he found that the eldest grandson and Lime looked wrong, and they both looked at him like monsters.
"What's the matter, did I say the wrong thing again?" Ning Chen thought about it for a moment, he didn't say anything rebellious.
"Who did you learn all this intrigue from?" the eldest grandson said in a strange tone.
"Hehe" Ning Chen smiled awkwardly, too lazy to re-make up nonsense, and said, "With an old Taoist priest"
"Lime, write these words to Jingwu Gong as they are" The eldest grandson ignored his nonsense, glanced at Lime, and immediately said.
Although Ning Chen's words were a little more insidious and straightforward, his words were not rough, and he used extraordinary methods in an extraordinary period, Jing Wugong was not a pedantic and ignorant person, and he would definitely work out a set of more practical and feasible methods.
"Yes," Lime nodded, respectfully.
"Report!"
At this moment, a hurried voice came from outside the door, and he immediately knelt in front of the door with a sonorous voice, and said eagerly, "There is an urgent report from the front line, please see the queen mother"
When the eldest grandson heard this, he immediately got up and opened the door, and asked solemnly, "What's the matter?"
Ning Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw the bloodstained general in front of him, feeling a little bad.
"Tell the queen mother, last night the three assassins attacked the military camp at night, the two generals died tragically, and the Marquis of Taiping was seriously injured!"
"What!"
Suddenly, the eldest grandson stumbled under his feet, and after many days of exhaustion and worry, his eyes were dark, and he suddenly fell backwards with distraction.
"Niangniang" Lime was in a hurry, and immediately went up to support the eldest grandson.
"Go to the barracks" The eldest grandson finished the last sentence with difficulty, and even lost consciousness.
Ning Chen's face was so heavy that he was about to condense, this was the worst result.
He didn't expect that even the martial marquis of Great Xia had been assassinated, and there were very few people in the world who could assassinate the martial marquis, except for those few congenitals, the rest could be counted on their fingers.
Half an hour later, the carved carriage set off from the Qinghe Marquis Mansion and rushed all the way to the Taiping Marquis military camp in the north.
Three days later, the carved carriage that had been traveling day and night finally arrived at the barracks, and the eldest grandson, who was still very weak, immediately got out of the car and walked towards the camp tent of the Marquis of Taiping.
Lime pushed Ning Chen to follow behind, with a hint of worry on her face, they knew very well how hard the assassination of the Taiping Marquis would be to the eldest grandson, and Niangniang had been unable to eat for several days.
"Niangniang Chitose Chitose Chitose Chisensu!"
The arrival of the eldest grandson surprised all the soldiers in front of the camp, and they hurriedly knelt on the ground and saluted.
"Flat"
The eldest grandson was worried about the eldest brother's injury, so he said casually, and then opened the tent and walked in.
The scene that caught his eyes made the eldest grandson stumble and almost faint again, but fortunately, Lime was paying attention to it and immediately stepped forward to help him.
On the bed in the tent, the Taiping Hou was lying there with a pale face, on the left chest, a deep wound that could be seen to the ribs was reaching the ribs, and the medical officer of the army was changing the dressing, and when he saw the eldest grandson coming in, he hurriedly knelt down.
"Uh" The eldest grandson stepped forward, her heart ached, and she didn't see her for a few days, but something so unexpected happened.
"How is the Taiping Hou's injury?" asked Lime on the side.
"Xia Guan has tried his best to diagnose and treat, but Hou Ye's injuries have not improved," the medical officer said with a look of embarrassment and panic.
"Get up and keep changing the dressing!"
The eldest grandson forcibly suppressed the sadness in his heart, forced himself to return to his strong side, and shouted in a deep voice.
"Thank you, Niangniang" The medical officer got up in panic, and immediately continued to clean and change the dressing for Taipinghou.
Looking at the pieces of bloody gauze washed from the wound of the eldest brother, the eldest grandson's heart became more and more painful, there was no shortage of panacea in the army, and the eldest brother had not woken up yet, so he must have hurt his heart.
On the wheelchair, Ning Chen looked at the wound on Taipinghou's chest, his eyes narrowed, and said, "It's a sword wound."
Lime also nodded, it was indeed a sword wound, and there would be no mistake.
"Did the Northern Mongolian Court do it?" Lime doubted.
Ning Chen shook his head and said, "No, there are very few people who are good at swords in the Beimeng Royal Court, even their innate ones don't use swords, although the Siming Sword uses swords, it is impossible for him alone to hurt Hou Ye like this, and I took his sword, and the aura is too different."
Lime's expression became even more solemn, if it weren't for the Northern Meng Royal Court, Great Xia would have another terrible opponent.
In fact, Ning Chen already had the object of suspicion in his heart, but there was no evidence, and he couldn't be sure.
According to the general who reported the message before, the three assassins were all swordsmen, and the place where the most people in the world used swords was Sword City, and the only swordsman who had the ability to assassinate the Great Xia Wuhou was Sword City.
The sword in Sword City had received three disciples, and now they were all powerhouses above the Nine Ranks, and if they joined forces to assassinate a martial artist in Great Xia, the chances of success were not small.
The heart of harming people is indispensable, and the heart of defending people is indispensable, even if he takes the belly of the villain with the heart of a gentleman, Sword City has to guard against it.
This could not be said explicitly, Ning Chen could only whisper to Lime's side and whisper his suspicions.
Lime was startled at first, then walked beside the eldest grandson and whispered a few words.
The eldest grandson was in heartache, and the authorities were confused, so he didn't expect so much, but as soon as he heard Lime's reminder, he immediately reacted.
She knew the origin of Sword City better than anyone else, and she immediately confirmed this suspicion.
Although it can't be 100% certain, there is a chance that this matter was done by Sword City.
Unexpectedly, the woman in the Beimeng Royal Court also said that she had moved the Sword City to make a move, and repeatedly assassinated the important ministers of Great Xia, which was to completely destroy the foundation of Great Xia.
With a wave of his hand, the eldest grandson dismissed all the people in the camp, including the officer who had just changed the medicine for the Taiping Hou, and immediately said solemnly:
"Order the Marquis of Ziyang to strictly monitor the movements of Sword City, and if there is any disturbance, report it immediately!"
"Yes," Lime commanded, and walked out quickly.
After giving the order, the eldest grandson felt tired, in just one month, Great Xia was already surrounded by enemies, the Northern Meng Royal Court in the north, the Eternal Night Divine Cult in the west, the Sword City in the east, and even the Seven Cities Rebellion in Great Xia.
The only thing that makes people happy is that the Zhenji Kingdom, which used to be the most vocal, has settled down a lot this time, and the loss of 20,000 war horses is too big a blow to the Zhenji Kingdom, and it is difficult to have the confidence to raise troops in a big way in a short time.
Thinking of this, the eldest grandson's eyes softened even more when he looked at Ning Chen, fortunately, this kid was still by her side at this most difficult time......
