Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country

At first, Nan Huaishuo just wanted to use Lin Yushu, but now he has been rejected by her again and again, and even framed by her, Nan Huaishuo's competitive spirit has been completely aroused.

Lin Yushu is not like Lin Qingrou who is only beautiful. She can see through his trap at a glance and break through and counterattack in a short time. Her wisdom surprised Nan Huaishuo.

Now think about it, Lin Yushu has gone from being an unpopular young lady who was left alone on the farm for many years to a county lady who is appreciated by the Empress Dowager and Emperor Ming.

This shows that she is smart, resourceful, good at disguising herself, and most importantly, ruthless. Isn't this what Nan Huaishuo himself is like? !

If he initially pursued Lin Yushu just for the power of her father and brother, everything changed after today.

Looking at the incomparably beautiful face not far away, Nan Huaishuo had only one thought at this moment.

Possess her!

If you can't possess her, destroy her!

He would never allow someone who was his equal to go against him!

Nan Huaishuo slowly loosened his white-clenched knuckles, placed the wine glass on the table, and turned back to ask the guard.

"What did you find?"

The guard bent down and said softly, "Your Highness, I found a cork with a strange fragrance under the wardrobe. I have sent the cork back to the palace and asked someone to check it."

There are many guests living in Nan Huaishuo's mansion, all of whom are talented people from all walks of life. I think after their inspection, they will definitely be able to find the strangeness of the cork.

Nan Huaishuo nodded slightly, he didn't completely believe what Lin Qingrou said.

Even if Lin Yushu really saw through his plan, she had no reason to let Lin Qingrou replace her.

Because in this way, Nan Huaishuo still has a relationship with the General's Mansion. Although not as good as Lin Yushu, Lin Qingrou is Lin Mingyue's niece after all.

Therefore, he must find out what happened today and who is plotting against him behind the scenes!

A loud and clear sound of the xiao was heard, and a dozen dancers in cool clothes with wheat-colored skin walked onto the stage.

As they spun and jumped to the sound of the xiao, the unique costumes of Northern Liao and the numerous braids on their heads fluttered up and down as they danced, which was so beautiful that it immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

At the end of the song, it won applause from the whole audience.

The envoys from Northern Liao walked out from the banquet and saluted respectfully to Emperor Ming.

"Your Majesty, this is a dance that we from the Liao Dynasty present to you. Do you like it?"

Emperor Ming nodded with a smile, "Your dance is indeed good."

"The Great Liao monarch sent us here in the hope of establishing a lasting friendship with your country, not starting wars again, and establishing trade. He has specially presented us with ten thousand taels of gold, a thousand horses, and more than a hundred jade artifacts and antiques as a token of his sincerity."

"Your king is right. I agree!"

Emperor Ming laughed heartily, the border crisis that had existed in the previous dynasty was actually resolved in his hands. It was indeed a great achievement that would surely go down in history.

"Your Majesty, the Liao monarch and the crown prince have long admired the culture of the Central Plains. The crown princess of the Liao has passed away for many years, and the crown prince has not remarried for a long time. Now the crown prince wants to marry a noble lady from the Central Plains and make her his crown princess to consolidate the friendship between our two countries."

As soon as he finished speaking, everything around him fell silent.

Although official families have no shortage of daughters, no one is willing to send their daughter to a cold and bitter place like Northern Liao, causing the family to lose a candidate for marriage in vain.

Emperor Ming did not comment, but the smile on his face remained, and he obviously agreed with the envoy's words. He looked around with sharp eyes, and all the chattering ladies in the martial arts arena suddenly became as quiet as quails, shrinking their necks, afraid that Emperor Ming would see them.

Finally, Emperor Ming's gaze fell on Nan Shuning, and Nan Shuning's face suddenly turned pale.

Pingyang ***'s heart skipped a beat, but before he could object, Emperor Ming withdrew his gaze.

"This matter will be discussed later."

Emperor Ming's words made Pingyang *** feel relieved, but Nan Shuning's face was still not good. Nan Shuning has always been smarter than her mother. She could imagine how much benefit she could bring to Emperor Ming if she went to Northern Liao to marry.

Nan Shuning clenched her fists, and suddenly, a warm and dry hand held her cold and slippery hand.

"Don't worry, you won't go to marry as long as I'm here."

When Nan Shuning turned her head, she saw Lin Yushu's determined gaze looking at her. Although she knew that Lin Yushu was just comforting her, the uneasiness in her heart was still soothed by Lin Yushu's firm words.

Lin Yushu knew that the reason why Emperor Ming did not agree to let Nan Shuning marry was thanks to the changes made by her father and brother on the border battlefield.

Currently, the power of the Crown Prince of Northern Liao is not as great as that of Nan Shuning's biological father, the Eighth Prince. If Emperor Ming lets Nan Shuning marry the Crown Prince of Northern Liao at this time, he will completely offend the Eighth Prince. If the Eighth Prince succeeds to the throne, the border will surely fall into war again.

But if Emperor Ming wanted to take a gamble, or if he intervened in the fight for the throne in Northern Liao, Nan Shuning would probably be doomed.

Lin Yushu thought about it carefully in her mind.

……

After the celebration banquet, in the dark night, a short figure sneaked out from the back door of the Beijing Post Station and disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.

Half an hour later.

"Mr. Deputy Envoy, what brings you here so late at night?"

Nan Huaishuo sat in a sandalwood chair, looking at the Deputy Envoy of Northern Liao in front of him with surprise.

The deputy envoy raised his head, revealing a thin and dark face, with a thick beard tangled with his braids, thick eyebrows, and eyes examining Nan Huaishuo.

After a moment, he took out a jade token from his arms and threw it to Nan Huaishuo.

"This is!"

There is a wild wolf carved on the front of the jade plate, and the word "five" engraved on the back.

The word "Five" was obviously carved on the jade plate with a dagger. The strokes of the characters were not smooth and there were some dark red stains in the gaps.

This jade token was a token that Nan Huaishuo left for a general on the Northern Liao border!

Many years ago, Nan Huaishuo came to Yanzhou under the pretext of looking for medicine for the prince. On his way back, he encountered a snowstorm and met Xu Wen, the current Vice Minister of War, in Songshan County.

The real purpose of Nan Huaishuo's going to Yanzhou was to establish a relationship with the Northern Liao royal family and let them support him in ascending the throne.

Before the snowstorm, Nan Huaishuo tried his best to secretly contact a Northern Liao border general without alerting Lin Mingyue who was stationed in Yanzhou at the time.

After negotiating with the other party for a long time, Nan Huaishuo guessed that the general was a man of the Prince of Northern Liao. At that time, the Prince of Northern Liao was very powerful and was unwilling to do business with him, an unknown prince of the enemy country.

Finally, Nan Huaishuo exchanged tokens with the general and agreed to use the tokens as proof for further transactions in the future.

The moment he saw the jade token, Nan Huaishuo understood that the deputy envoy in front of him was the person planted in the envoy team by the Prince of Northern Liao.

Nan Huaishuo took out a brass plate from a secret compartment in the study. There was a tiger carved on the front and the word "Tao" engraved on the back. It was Tuoba Tao, the name of the crown prince of Northern Liao.

The deputy envoy took the brass plate and confirmed it was correct before speaking.

"The Crown Prince asked me to contact His Highness. Now is the time to fulfill the promise we made that year."

Nan Huaishuo raised his eyebrows slightly, and sat back in the chair with a relaxed demeanor. Things are different now than they were back then!

Back then, he was weak and the Crown Prince of Northern Liao was extremely powerful. Now he still stands in the court, but the Crown Prince of Northern Liao is about to be forced into a dead end by the Eighth Prince.

"Oh? I wonder what kind of deal the Northern Liao prince wants to make with me?"

The deputy envoy frowned, dissatisfied with Nan Huaishuo's contemptuous attitude, but Tuoba Tao was in a critical situation now, so he could only compromise.

"The Crown Prince wants to trade two things with Your Highness. The first is to make Emperor Ming no longer trust Lin Mingyue."

Nan Huaishuo sneered in his heart. This prince of Northern Liao was really asking for too much.

Even if the Crown Prince and the Second Prince were tied together, they would not be able to match Lin Mingyue's current favor. It would be easier said than done to make Emperor Ming distrust Lin Mingyue.

"What about the second thing?"

"The prince has two marriage targets, and he can marry either of them."

"Who?"

"Princess Ning'an Nan Shuning, and...Princess Shuyi Lin Yushu!"
