Chapter 298: Anger

Ji Ping, the supreme ruler of the Yan Kingdom, stood on the terrace of the high palace, his hands tightly holding the white jade railing, his hands were full of green muscles, in the distance in front of him, the raging fire was still spreading outward, and behind him, a man in black knelt on the ground, sweating through his heavy clothes. didn't dare to move, although Ji Ping was only twenty-five years old, although he had just ascended the throne, but the person kneeling behind him had been with him for more than ten years, and he had a clear understanding of the temperament of the new king.

This is a man of great hardship and tenacity, and his years of exile have cultivated the young king's temperament and political acumen, but now, he is truly angry.

"Ye Xiang wants to kill Gao Yuan?" He laughed.

"Your Majesty, this is just a subordinate's speculation." The voice of the man in black behind him trembled a little.

"Ye Xiang wants to kill Gao Yuan!" Ji Ping laughed, laughing a little sadly, and the expression on his face was hideous. Listening to Ji Ping's laughter like a night owl, the kneeling man in black trembled even more.

With the ring, a concubine in her early forties came slowly, glanced at Ji Ping with a frown, turned her head, and said to the black-clothed man on the ground: "You go down!"

The man in black got up from the ground, bowed, took a few steps backwards, turned around, and disappeared on the terrace.

The noble lady walked to Ji Ping's side, looked up at the fire in the distance, and sighed lightly: "This fire, I'm afraid of great losses, and I don't know how many people have died, how many people have gone bankrupt, and how many wives have been separated!"

Ji Ping turned his head and looked at the noble lady, the expression on his face calmed down a lot, "Mother, they said that Ye Xiang wanted to kill Gao Yuan, do you believe it?"

"I believe it!" The look on the noblewoman's face did not change in the slightest, and she blurted out without any thought.

"Mother!" Ji Ping looked at the noble lady in surprise.

The noble lady turned her head to look at Ji Ping, her face was calm as usual: "Your Majesty, you have to believe, you have to believe."

Ji Ping exhaled a mouthful of turbid air and slammed his fist on the railing, but the trace of unwillingness in his eyes could not be erased.

"This is Jicheng, it is the royal capital, Gao Yuan is the general of Zhengdong, and he is also a strong martial artist, with dozens of guards under his command, which one is not a veteran of a hundred battles, to kill such a person, how can ordinary people do." The noble lady seemed to be telling a story, "Such people, in Jicheng, can be counted with a finger, it is nothing more than a few people. But beforehand, if there is no rumor at all, no clues are revealed, then it is not something that one person can do. This is a conspiracy, Your Majesty."

"Are they so eager to bring down Ye Xiang?" Ji Ping said hatefully: "My Dayan is about to concentrate all his strength to attack Donghu, at this time, it is the time to unite sincerely and unite with the outside world, they are actually fighting inwardly, and they want to bring down my minister, how can I do what they want!"

A shallow smile appeared on the concubine's face, "Your Majesty, you must do what they want."

Ji Ping's body shook and looked at the noble lady with some incredulity.

"When Lord Ning proposed that Gao Yuan be the general of Zhengdong, I told the king in private that this would not work, but the king did not listen!" The noble lady shook her head, "Lord Ning, this is ill-intentioned, I originally thought that Ye Xiang would see through this situation, but the authorities were fascinated, and Ye Xiang still fell into it after all."

Ji Ping sighed. This is also my fault, Ye Xiang has mentioned two sentences, but I think this is a good thing, first, it can improve Ye Xiang's strength, and he can really achieve a three-legged stand, and second, Gao Yuan is indeed capable, with him as a striker, and then with Zhang Shouyue, we will be more sure of this battle with Donghu."

"If you want to hurry, you can't get there." The noble lady said: "How can the Taiwei tolerate someone to divide his military power, especially Ye Xiang, whether it is Zhou Taiwei or Lord Ning, he is actually very wary of Ye Xiang, the Minister of State is in charge of political affairs, if there is another general like Gao Yuan, it won't take long for his strength to surpass the two of them, how can they tolerate it?"

"So I made this game to kill Gao Yuan and blame Ye Xiang!" Ji Ping's face showed hatred. But the eyes of the people of the world are bright."

"The eyes of people in the world are not necessarily bright!" The noble lady smiled slightly, "Ye Xiang doesn't recognize that this son-in-law has spread all over the country, and it is a matter recognized by everyone, and now that this has happened, coupled with the propaganda of people with a heart, he can say that the black is white, and the dead are alive, Ye Xiang's reputation is completely ruined this time. Killing two birds with one stone, the most detrimental thing is terrible."

"These people are so bold that they don't take me seriously at all." Ji Ping said sharply, "If you don't give them a little color to see, they still don't know who is the real master of Yan Kingdom."

"Your Majesty!" The lady's voice was louder, "You sober up. Do you want to go into exile for another ten years, this time, there will be no more characters like Ye Tiannan to help you."

Ji Ping looked at the noble lady in shock.

"Your Majesty, think about it, what do you have now?" The lady said word by word." Everything you have now is based on the support of Ye Tiannan, Zhou Yuan, and Ning Zecheng, and now that Ye Xiang has collapsed, if you want to deal with Zhou Yuan and Ning Zecheng, you can think about the consequences!"

Ji Ping's eyes turned red, "Mother, then what should I do now?" Pretend to be deaf, pretend to be blind, pretend to be stupid?"

The lady smiled coldly, "You are not deaf, blind, or stupid. They bully you like this because they see that you are helpless, but they are wrong about one thing, that is, you are still young, and they are about to get old." After a pause, the noble lady continued: "As the saying goes, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, but you are the king of a country, so what if you wait for twenty years?"

"Twenty years?" Ji Ping said dejectedly: "How many twenty years can there be in life?" King Wulie of Qin spent twenty years to build the Qin State into the largest country in the world, but do I have to swallow my anger for twenty years?"

"King Qin Wulie has military power in his hands, what do you have?" The lady said coldly: "He has Yingteng and Li Xin. Who do you have? Ping'er, these 20 years are for you to discover, cultivate your Yingteng, your Li Xin, take your time, don't be in a hurry, whoever is in a hurry, who will lose, during this period, you can only be a bystander, a referee, not a participant, you can always only stand on the side of the winner."

Ji Ping looked up to the sky and sighed: "Mother, in this way, am I going to step on Ye Xiang's foot too?"

The noble lady laughed, "Politics is like this. But how to do it, there is a lot to be done in the meantime. You have to show that you agree with Mrs. Zhou and Dr. Ning, and you have to tell them that you are not a fool, and at the same time, you have to make them feel a little restrained, leaving a little seed, what do you say?"

Ji Ping thought for a moment, "Go to Ye Xiang's phase and drive him back to Langya County, but leave Ye Chong and Xun Xiu. Ye Chong's palace forbidden army commander can't go. With him, my safety is at least guaranteed. Xun Xiu has a wide range of contacts and academic achievements, and if he stays in Jicheng, he can make extensive contacts for Ye Xiang and wait for the day of recovery."

"It's a great arrangement!" The lady laughed.

"This can be wronged Ye Xiang, in the past ten years, if he hadn't supported him, how could I be where I am today?" Ji Ping shook his head and said.

"Ye Tiannan is not a fool, as soon as your arrangement comes out, how can he not understand. At this time, he will never make a mess for you to fight this nonsense lawsuit. It's good to let him go back to Langya County to calm down, he's too anxious." The noble lady smiled: "In a few years, when he comes back again, he will definitely be able to be a good minister of this country."

"It's a pity that Gao Yuan made a sacrifice for some reason!" Ji Ping was a little pity, "This is a fierce general!"

"A little county lieutenant, if you die, you will die, what is a pity!" The lady waved her hand, "The wind is strong, king, look at how much dust has fallen on the ground, go back and rest, tomorrow, one day will be so busy!"

"Yes, Mother should rest early!" Ji Ping nodded.

Outside the palace, the imperial historian Ning Zecheng got out of the carriage, tidied up his appearance, and strode towards the gate of the palace.

"Lord Ning, stay here!" A general of the Wangcheng Forbidden Army walked out of the palace gate and stopped in front of Ning Zecheng.

"I want to see the king." Ning Zecheng looked at the other party, "The fire in Jicheng, if you don't handle it well, it will cause chaos."

The attitude of the general of the forbidden army was extremely respectful, but the body that stopped on the road did not let go, "The king knows that he has said, the king said, there is Taiwei and Lord Ning, there is definitely something wrong, please let the two adults deal with it themselves, don't disturb him to rest."

Ning Zecheng was stunned, "That's what the king said?"

"Yes! The king wants to rest, he doesn't want anyone to get involved, if there is anything wrong with Lord Ning, let's talk about it when the court discusses it tomorrow!" The general of the forbidden army said with a smile.

Ning Zecheng looked up at the dark palace, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.

"Then I'll take care of it. Tomorrow we will report to the king!"

"Lord Ning's hard work!" The general of the forbidden army retreated with a smile, and the gate of Miyagi City slammed shut.

The palace door was closed, but Ning Zecheng stood in front of the door for a long time, and then turned around, and just turned around, another carriage galloped from a distance, but it was the seat frame of Taiwei Zhou Yuan.

A moment later, Zhou Yuan's seat frame was already on his way home, but there was one more person in the spacious carriage.

"Is Takato dead?" Ning Zecheng asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know what to do!" Zhou Yuan shook his head, "I haven't gotten the news yet, but I shouldn't be alive."

Ning Zecheng was dumbfounded, "Should it?"

"This fire was somewhat unexpected!" ZHOU Yuandao.

"Captain, if Gao Yuan doesn't die, this time the plan will be a failure." Ning Zecheng frowned.

"It's also considered to have reached the goal, to stink Ye Tiannan, it's best to get rid of Ye Tiannan, this Yan country is still the world of the two of us after all." Zhou Yuan smiled: "Gao Yuan, it's nothing."

Ning Zecheng shook his head, "Tomorrow, Yan Lingwei under my command will concentrate all his efforts to find Gao Yuan, and your subordinates should not be idle, this person can't stay, it's best to kill him, if he slips out of Jicheng, he will inevitably leave a bad luck."

"You and I join forces, even if we don't kill him tonight, it is impossible for him to leave Jicheng alive, after all, it is still a dead word." Zhou Yuan said with a smile.

Ning Zecheng nodded and changed the subject, "The king's attitude is a little weird, he seems to have seen through our arrangement."

"What if you see through it?" Zhou Yuan sneered, "This time it also made him understand that in Yan Kingdom, it was not Ye Tiannan who he could rely on, but the two of us." (To be continued......)
