Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

"Destiny" is real.

Some people have a good life, and are born into rich families, rich and wealthy, live a comfortable life, and have enough food and clothing; some people have a bad life, and are born into poor families, with no clothes to cover their bodies, no food to eat, and end their lives...

But fate can only determine a person's starting point, and it is not set in stone.

Some people come from a wealthy family, but their family fortunes are in decline and their old age is miserable.

Some people were born in poverty, but became successful in life and became marquises and prime ministers.

Even if you are a child of the royal family, you may not always be able to hold a high position. King Kang was a prince since he was born, and now he has been demoted to the heir king. Princess Yiyang has the same fate as him. From a princess to a princess, the difference is huge. .

What everyone didn't expect was that Princess Yiyang's private life had been corrupt and she had oppressed the people for many years. The Yushitai had always turned a blind eye to this matter. Why did they accuse her of several crimes this time? It was obviously to fight with her. Fight until death...

Since it's not because of the first two charges, it must be because of the last one.

A few days ago, rumors began to spread in Beijing that Tang Ning, the Minister of Civil Affairs, had an affair with Princess Zhao Man of Pingyang, and that Princess Yiyang was behind it.

The personal grudge between Tang Ning and Princess Yiyang is not a secret in the capital. This time he left the capital, and it is understandable that Princess Yiyang took advantage of his absence to stir up trouble in the capital.

But just because Tang Ning is not in the capital, it doesn't mean that he has no back-ups while he is in the capital. As a general, the Tang family has a good relationship with several top generals in the capital. This matter of Princess Yiyang will undoubtedly be a problem for those who are secretly planning to take action. It's a shock.

Princess Yiyang's ending was so miserable. If it were them, wouldn't they be able to keep her whole body?

This is a warning to some people. If you don't have Princess Yiyang's backing, it's better to be honest.

The rumor was dispelled, and people in Beijing also discussed it a lot.

"After passing it on for a long time, it turned out to be false..."

"It's Princess Yiyang who is retaliating behind the scenes..."

"I think Mr. Tang and the princess are a perfect match. Why is this fake!"

"You are not alone!"

……

Tangning didn't know that so many things had happened in the capital after he left. With the Xiao family, the Lu family, and Emperor Chen's promise to him, he didn't have to worry even if the sky fell.

He, Lao Zheng, and Ayina had already left the army within two days of leaving the capital and headed for the grassland at a faster speed.

They traveled quickly all the way and arrived in Fengzhou in only half a month.

Fengzhou was the frontline in the fight against the grassland. Chen Guo stationed 30 troops in Fengzhou and Shengzhou to block the enemies on the grassland from the Yinshan Mountains.

The highest general stationed in Yinshan is Xiao Qing, the general of the Youxiao Guard. The military system of the Chen State is very strange. The generals of the Sixteenth Guards are generally in vain, and the generals at the next lower level are placed among the frontier troops. The real ones are in charge. , just a fourth-grade Zhonglang general.

In the tent, Xiao Qing bowed his hands to Tang Ning and said, "Xiao Qing has met the marshal!"

A few days ago, the urgent report from Beijing had arrived in Fengzhou. In this northern expedition, Tang Ning was the supreme commander, and the border army generals also had to obey his command.

"General Xiao, no courtesy." Tang Ning stretched out her hand to support him and said, "I just came here, and I need General Xiao to inform you in detail about the situation on the grassland."

When Xiao Qing heard this, he felt relieved. He was really worried that the young commander sent by the imperial court would not listen to dissuasion and insist on going his own way, ruining the lives of the border soldiers. Now it seems that he is not such a person.

Xiao Qing cupped his hands and said: "Some changes occurred in the Heiman tribe, the old enemy of the Sushen people. The pressure on the Wanyan tribe was greatly reduced, and they began to turn around to deal with Chen Chu. We have withdrawn all the troops north of Yinshan, except General Xiao. …”

"General Xiao is fine." Tang Ning waved her hand and asked, "How is the situation over there in Chu State?"

"Chu State..." Xiao Qing looked at him with a hint of surprise on his face and said, "Chu State should also have withdrawn its troops."

Tang Ning asked again: "Where is Princess Changning?"

"Princess Changning's whereabouts are unknown..." Xiao Qing looked at him and said, "However, she should be fine for the time being. The grassland is very big. Looking for hundreds of people is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. If she is caught like General Xiao, Come on, the Sushen people have already spread the word all over the world..."

For Tang Ning, it is good news that there is no news about Li Tianlan. If she really falls into the hands of Su Shenren, Wan Yanyan may not be able to protect her.

After all, she is a princess of the Chu Kingdom, with a distinguished status, unlike Xiao Jue, a guy who can't be hard and is dispensable.

Xiao Qing looked at Tang Ning and asked tentatively: "The imperial court didn't say anything clearly in the secret letter. May I ask the marshal if there is any change in the plan for this northern expedition?"

Tangning nodded and said, "Your Majesty plans to support the fourth princess of the Wanyan tribe to become the new khan."

"Fourth Princess?" Xiao Qing thought for a while and said suddenly: "I heard that the Fourth Princess of Wanyanbu has a very favorable impression of the Han people. If she can become the new Khan, we Han people may really be able to coexist peacefully with them..."

He looked at Tang Ning and said, "The general will arrange for envoys to go to the grassland to contact him..."

Tangning waved her hand and said, "No, I will go in person this time."

Xiao Qing was startled, then his expression suddenly changed, and he said: "The marshal takes the lead, Xiao Mou admires it, but with such status as the marshal, the overall situation in the northwest is still waiting for you to take charge, how can you take such a strange risk? No, this is absolutely impossible." …”

Tangning shook her head and said, "There's no use in doing this."

Wanyanyan was still just the fourth princess, and her power was not as powerful as that of the eldest prince and the third prince. It was not possible to just send an envoy over to help her become a khan.

After he met Yan Yan, he had to think about this matter in a long term.

Xiao Qing looked at him and wanted to persuade him. Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "This is a military order."

Xiao Qing stood up straight and said respectfully: "Yes, Marshal!"

Tang Ning did not waste time at Fengzhou Station and went into the grassland with Lao Zheng and Aina the next day.

He was riding a horse, looking at the endless grassland, turned to look at Aina, and asked: "Do you know the road?"

The vast grassland is endless as far as the eye can see. There is no official road like Chen Chu. All you can step on are roads. If you are not an experienced herdsman, you may get lost in the grassland, let alone find it in this vast sea of ​​​​grass. A certain tribe.

Aina glanced at him and said disdainfully: "You are insulting me."

Tangning looked at her and corrected her: "Teach you a sentence in Chinese. In this context, you can say humiliation or look down upon. It's best not to say insult."

Aina kept these words in mind, raised his riding whip, and said: "Let's go..."

……

Deep in the grassland, somewhere in the pasture.

Xiao Jue was lying on the grass, looking up to the sky and sighing: "When will you come..."

Wan Yanyan walked over with a whip in hand and said, "Get up and continue."

"I can't get up." Xiao Jue put his hands behind his head and said, "Just beat me to death like this."

Wan Yanyan looked at him and said, "Practice for another half hour, and I'll let you eat a steamed bun for lunch."

Thinking of beef buns and mutton buns, Xiao Jue felt nauseated. In the past two months, he ate meat until he vomited. Now he eats every day just to survive...

He closed his eyes and said, "You'd better beat me to death."

Wanyanyan smiled and said, "I'm eating cabbage stuffing today."

Xiao Jue opened his eyes suddenly, jumped up from the ground, patted the grass clippings on his butt, and said: "Come on, just remember not to slap your face..."
