When Tang Ning returned home, he received a letter secretly from Xiao Wan's envoy.

Before summoning him, Emperor Chen also summoned them and proposed the idea of letting Zhao Man, the princess of Pingyang, marry to the Western Regions together, and Xiao Wan's envoy readily agreed.

Tang Ning naturally knew that this was Emperor Chen's revenge on himself, because Tang Ning was not on his side in Empress Xiao's old case.

Emperor Chen is still the ruthless emperor, children, wives and children, in his eyes, can never compare to power, and can even only become a tool for him to vent his anger and revenge.

However, Emperor Chen couldn't have thought that Tang Ning was the lord of Xiaowan, and he originally needed to put some effort into taking Xiao Man away, but now all this is logical.

As for what happened after that, Tang Ning didn't want to care, and he couldn't care about it.

An important reason is also that this court is no longer the court where Emperor Chen has the final say, and the Fang family, Wang Xiang and others have reached a consensus that as long as Emperor Chen continues to suppress, he, the emperor, will be completely hollowed out.

There was news from Su Mei that not long ago, the Qianliang Imperial Court had been thoroughly infiltrated by several elders, and here in Jingshi, the overall situation had also been decided.

A few days later, Chen Guo would send someone to escort Xiao Wan's envoys away, and with them, there were two princesses.

Xiaoxiao and Fang Xinyue were talking in the courtyard, Tang Ning stood at the door, looked at her, and said, "Pack up your things early, we will leave in two days......"

After Tang Ning left, Fang Xinyue looked at Xiao Xiao and asked, "You guys are leaving again, where are you going?" ”

Xiaoxiao said: "My brother said that he would go to Jiangnan first." ”

Fang Xinyue lowered her head and asked, "Are you coming back?" ”

Xiaoxiao's expression was a little low, and he whispered: "If you leave this time, you shouldn't come back." ”

"I'll see you off when I leave." Fang Xinyue stood up and said, "I'll go back first." ”

……

Fang family.

After King Huai's rebellion, the Fang family was very unexpectedly pushed to the cusp of the chaos in Beijing, although the Fang family was unprepared for this, but the foundation they had accumulated in the past two years was very rich, and they were not too passive.

However, it is already a fact that the Fang family and His Majesty are on opposite sides, and this confrontation will sooner or later evolve into a more intense conflict.

The Fang family can no longer keep a low profile in the entire court as before, these days, His Majesty has recalled King Zhong and began to cultivate new wings, if the Fang family does not move, the end will be extremely miserable.

And with their current strength, they can completely force the palace to force His Majesty to abdicate, it is nothing more than the Fang family's unwillingness to bear this infamy.

Fang Hong was an upright person, even if he secretly supported King Run, he had not used any drastic means, for him, he still couldn't accept the fact that the Fang family and His Majesty were opposed.

Fang Zhe said calmly: "These things, there is no right or wrong, the winner is the king, the loser is Kou, when the Fang family makes that decision, it should be expected that sooner or later there will be such a day." ”

Fang Hongdao: "But this is a rebellion......"

Fang Zhe said: "Throughout the ages, the battle for succession is so ......"

Fang Hong sighed and said, "For my brother to be stupid, in the future, you should worry more about the affairs of King Run, fourth brother......

Outside the study, a figure hiding in the corner of the wall eavesdropping, with a complicated and painful expression on his face......

……

In recent days, there have been so many major events in Jingshi that everyone is no longer so surprised that there is any surprising news.

King Huai rebelled, and the courtiers of the palace played a game, forcing His Majesty to thoroughly investigate the case of Empress Yang Fei, and His Majesty issued an edict for his own crimes......

In addition, His Majesty suddenly resigned the two princesses of Anyang and Pingyang and the pro-Western Regions and Tang Xiang, these are all major events that people can't guess, compared to it, the news of Shangshu Zuo Cheng Zhong Mingli's resignation is not worth mentioning at all.

The delegation sent off relatives left Beijing half a month ago, and will soon enter the boundary of the Western Regions.

Chen Guo married two princesses at one time, and his sincerity can be seen, which means that the relationship between Chen Guo and the Western Regions has made unprecedented progress.

City gates.

Several carriages stopped on the official road, the old beggar leaned on the carriage and took a nap, and Lao Zheng and the middle-aged woman squatted in the grass, holding Fang Xinyue's hand slightly, their eyes full of reluctance.

Farther away, Xiao Jue looked at Tang Ning and said, "When I'm done with the affairs in Beijing, I don't want to stay here anymore." ”

Tang Ning patted him on the shoulder and said, "See you then." ”

Xiao Jue looked at him and suddenly said, "Thank you." ”

Tang Ning lightly punched him in the shoulder and waved his hand, "Let's go." ”

He said goodbye to Xiao Jue, and when he turned around, a figure suddenly came over from the crowd, stuffed a note into his hand, and left in a hurry.

Tang Ning glanced at the man and found that he was emaciated, his face was white and beardless, his head was lowered when he walked, his steps were fast, and the whole person looked a little feminine, he should be a eunuch.

He opened the note in his hand, and two words were written on it.

"Be careful."

Looking at this note, which obviously meant to remind him, Tang Ning smiled, and Wei Jian's old face couldn't help but appear in his mind.

Then the smile on his face disappeared, and he became a little sad, crumpled the note, got into the carriage, and said, "Let's go......"

The speed of the carriage is not slow, and after half a day's effort, it is already far away from Jingshi.

"Appeal ......"

Lao Zheng took the reins of the horse, the carriage slowly stopped, and he rode on the horse, looking at the dense forest ahead.

The old beggar and the little grandmother jumped down from the two carriages and walked towards the dense forest, and the old Zheng sat steadily on the horse, and after a while, the old beggar walked out of the forest with a figure.

The old beggar threw the man on the ground and said, "There is an ambush in the forest, half of them are archers, and the Dog Emperor really doesn't talk about it at all......

Tang Ning looked at the spy leader who had several connections and asked, "Did His Majesty send you here?" ”

The spy leader looked at him, with a wry smile on his face, and said, "Why did Tang Xiang ask knowingly? ”

In fact, there was no need for Wei Jian to remind him, Tang Ning also knew that Emperor Chen would not let him go so easily.

After all, he can even do it to his wife and children, let alone himself, a foreign minister who has no effect on him?

It's just that speculation is speculation, and from the bottom of his heart, Tang Ning is still unwilling to accept this result.

"Your Majesty asked the subordinate to ask Tang Xiang a word before killing Tang Xiang, now it seems that there is no need......" The leader of the secret spy looked at him and said: "Colleagues, I hope that Lord Tang will give the subordinate a good time." ”

Tangning looked at him and asked, "What words?" ”

The leader of the secret spy said: "Your Majesty asked the subordinate to ask Lord Tang, why did you leave?" ”

Tang Ning smiled and said, "Because I want to go back and inherit the throne......"

……

The Temple of Nourishment.

The leader of the secret spy knelt on the ground and said, "The minister has been entrusted by His Majesty, please punish Your Majesty!" ”

Emperor Chen asked in a gloomy voice, "They ran away?" ”

The leader of the secret spy said: "Back to Your Majesty, we are not their opponents......"

If it weren't for the fact that there was no one around him, the spy leader in front of him would have been dragged out and cut down by him, Chen Huang glanced at him coldly and said, "Go down!" ”

The spy leader raised his head, his lips moved, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has one more thing to report. ”

Emperor Chen said in a dark voice: "What's the matter? ”

The leader of the secret spy licked his dry lips and said, "Tang Xiang, it is the lord of Xiaowan and the lord of the Western Regions......"

Emperor Chen's body shook suddenly, and his whole person was like being struck by lightning, and he said in a trembling voice: "What did you say? ”

The leader of the secret spy repeated: "Tang Xiang, it is the ...... of Xiaowan Country."

Chen Huang leaned back in his chair, and the last meeting with Tang Ning came to his mind, and he finally understood what his "thank you" meant.

His lips trembled, his body trembled, and he gritted his teeth and said, "It turned out to be you, it turned out to be you!" ”

He had never been deceived like this, and he had never been so angry as he was now, Tang Ning betrayed him, he actually married both princesses to him, and the envoy of Chen Guo was about to arrive in the Western Regions now......

He only had anger in his heart, his eyes were bloodshot, he gasped, and said sharply: "Chuan I order, order 300,000 garrisons in the northwest to level the Western Regions!" ”
