King Ning slammed the fold on the table and said, "Xixia has been fighting for so long, why hasn't there been any improvement at all. ”

Chen Zhuo saluted King Ning and said, "Your Highness, the Western Xia side doesn't know what the idea is, they just keep harassing our borders every day, and when we send troops out to fight, they will withdraw again." ”

In fact, King Ning didn't care so much about the war situation on the border, after all, King Chen was sitting there, and Western Xia had not attacked the defense line of Daliang, but since he took the throne to supervise the country, he was busy all day, and he finally had some time today, and he wanted to go out of the palace to listen to the praise of the people for him as a ruler, but he didn't expect that he actually heard rumors that his life was ominous, and now he was still the prince in charge of the country has caused natural disasters and man-made disasters, if he ascends the throne in the future, it will affect the entire Liang, and the people are not happy. was so angry that he immediately returned to the palace.

But after all, he is King Ning, the heir to the throne that King Lianchen was intended to be, and after reflection on the way back to the palace, he did not send people to arrest all the people who spread rumors, but he was thinking that he must solve all the turmoil as soon as possible, stabilize the people's hearts, and truly become a good emperor.

After listening to Chen Zhuo's words, King Ning nodded and said, "Where is the Hubu Shangshu?" ”

Lord Hubu Shangshu Sun heard that King Ning suddenly clicked on him, and hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute, and said in his heart that he was fortunate that he had not taken refuge in King Heng before, it seems that King Ning is going to reuse himself, so he said: "Go back to Your Highness, the old minister is here." ”

King Ning was fighting with King Heng before, and he also dealt with a grandson, this person is an old fox wall grass, seeing everyone is smiling correspondingly, the person is the same as before, the person is the same, the original official Shangshu Meng is the person of Jinghe Hou, has been replaced by himself, for fear of causing turmoil in the court, so he did not move him for the time being, but after he ascended the throne, such a person could not be kept, so he asked with a calm face: "How much is the reserve of the treasury, and how many silver taels have been allocated to the border?" ”

Master Sun was beating a drum in his heart, King Ning's attitude towards him was not good, and he was still careful, so he pulled up the military department in the answer and reported the silver to King Ning one by one.

After listening to this, King Ning was speechless, and he didn't know what to think again, Chen Zhuo was afraid that King Chen would suffer, so he gave a salute and said: "Your Highness, the soldiers will be on the battlefield in blood, and they must not lack food and clothing." ”

King Ning nodded, although Chen Zhuo is the brother-in-law of King Heng, he still knows the Wenyu Hou family for so many years, especially this Chen Zhuo, who is upright and cares about the country, so he has always admired Chen Zhuo, nodded and said: "These kings know, naturally they will not treat the soldiers in the army badly, but it is not a way for us to always spend time with Western Xia." ”

Of course, Chen Zhuo also knows that the current situation is just that King Chen has created some trouble for him in order to drag King Ning, and there is a lot of wasteland on the border, and the soldiers will also farm their own land and raise food, and they will not waste the people and money, King Ning should be forced to be in a hurry this time, as long as King Chen is not recalled to Beijing, everything will be easy to do.

Of course King Ning will not be stupid enough to get King Chen back, he can't wait to keep King Chen on the border, I remember that the mother concubine once said that the dog that bites people does not bark, King Chen, as the son of the first prince, naturally has the opportunity to sit on the throne, you have to be careful of him at all times, he is much more difficult than the fifth child.

So he said: "That's it, Lord Luo, you are ready to prepare and send an envoy to Western Xia." ”

Shen Cheng has always been suspicious of King Ning and Concubine Cheng Guifei, so he basically doesn't support King Ning's decision, and he has always advocated peace talks for the Northern Wei Dynasty, and for the first time he said with a black face: "The minister has something to say. ”

King Ning also knew that Shen Cheng had opinions about himself, so since he was in charge of the country, he rarely helped himself, of course, he also felt guilty about Shen Cheng, so he was not embarrassed with him, I just hoped that he would put aside his personal grievances for the sake of Li Min's common people, but he didn't expect to suddenly speak today, so he looked at Shen Chengxiang softly and asked, "I don't know what the prime minister has to say?" ”

Prime Minister Shen snorted coldly and said, "Is Your Highness going to negotiate peace with Western Xia because of the constant nuisance of Western Xia?" Don't forget, the enmity between our Daliang and Western Xia is not shared. ”

King Ning was unhappy in his heart, but he didn't expect this Prime Minister Shen to be so unclear, but he said: "The prime minister misunderstood the meaning of this king, and this king also wants to calm the war at the border as soon as possible, so as not to make the people unstable and the country uneasy. ”

Prime Minister Shen snorted coldly and said: "I hope Your Highness will always remember how my Prince Liang died on the battlefield of Western Xia, and you must not do anything to lose power and humiliate the country." ”

Hearing Prime Minister Shen Cheng's words, King Ning frowned, this Prime Minister Shen himself repeatedly tolerated it, and even he colluded with the queen and Jing and the Hou Mansion, embarrassed himself, and he thought that he was conniving at him when he had some talent, and only hoped that he could serve the court, but he didn't expect that when he got older, he didn't distinguish between right and wrong, and he insisted on buttoning his hat, I am afraid that the people also have their participation in the rumors about him, the more King Ning thought about it, the more angry he became, and he remembered one thing.

So he still said to Prime Minister Shen gently: "What the prime minister said is true, this prince should remember it, but there is one thing that has to be handled by the prime minister himself." “”

Although Prime Minister Shen didn't react on his face, he knew in his heart that he had completely offended this King Ning to death, but the final success or failure was still in the middle of it, and it was a big deal to unload his armor and return to the field, so he said: "It's all up to His Highness's orders." ”

King Ning said: "Prime Minister Gao Jian, at the beginning of the year, the Northern Wei Dynasty handed over the letter to the table, to my Liang courtiers, but then Princess Heng happened, and now has been imprisoned in my Liang prison, the Northern Wei Dynasty continues to write to our dynasty, to return the innocence of Princess Wei, for the friendly relations between the two countries that have been formed with great difficulty, of course, more Prime Minister said, can jointly deal with my Liang is not a common enemy, and I hope that the Prime Minister can take Princess Wei to the Northern Wei Dynasty to properly resolve the matter." ”

When Prime Minister Shen heard this, King Ning was using what he had said to suppress himself, and asked me to solve the matter of an adulterous woman, if I didn't go, wouldn't it be the reason why I just reprimanded him for ignoring the overall situation and losing power and humiliating the country, so he gritted his teeth and said, "The minister takes the order." ”

King Ning smiled, no matter what, as soon as Prime Minister Shen Cheng went, on the one hand, he could solve the troubles on the Northern Wei side for himself, and it would also save him from blocking himself all day long, which could be regarded as killing two birds with one stone, so he said: "That's it, it's decided, let's discuss it today." ”

Several adults were about to retreat, only Lord Luo did not move, and King Ning asked, "Lord Luo still has something to do?" ”

After those few people left, Lord Luo smiled and said: "Your Highness has really worked hard during this time, and you will rush to the border tomorrow, I don't know if Your Highness has anything else to tell Weichen?" (To be continued.) )
