Dingjiangshan

Ning Huaijin really didn't understand why Ning Yan insisted on committing such a stubbornness, and let him live a good life, but he actually started the idea of ​​personally conscripting.

From the beginning of closing the matter, Ning Yan's handling of things began to open up and close up. He changed his usual sloppy temperament and stepped forward step by step, as if he was afraid that his situation was not dangerous enough.

Ning Huaijin didn't know if it was because of the youth's vigor that Ning Yantian was not afraid of anything, and he dared to ignore the dangerous walls if he boasted that he had a city in his chest.

"No matter what it is for." Ning Huaijin said: "Your Majesty, the personal conquest is a matter of great importance, and I cannot agree to it."

"Uncle Emperor." Ning Yan didn't want to use his status to pressure him, and tried to discuss with him in a friendly voice: "I really have my own considerations."

Ning Yan's words were not just random nonsense to reassure Ning Huaijin, he originally had a play in his heart, which he wrote by himself, picked a corner and presented it to the stage.

He has been planning this scene for more than two years. He didn't expect to put it on the stage so early, but who knows that "time" waits for no one, and it comes much earlier than "human harmony", so Ning Yan can only In accordance with God's will, this scene was pushed onto the stage forcefully.

The scene started in a hurry, and Ning Yan was not prepared enough at first, so he gritted his teeth and suffered a lot.

With great difficulty, he carefully and carefully arranged the scene and sang it according to his heart. Seeing that the climax is about to be sung, it is absolutely impossible to rest assured that this scene will be handed over to others.

——What's more, he hasn't got what Ning Yan wants from this scene, so how could he withdraw his hand here.

"I know." Ning Huaijin said: "I understand that Your Majesty is not a person who is very happy, and will not be trapped by some illusory 'fame' for no reason, and take risks because of face."

"But this is not the reason for His Majesty to persuade the minister." Ning Huaijin made a gesture, indicating that Ning Yan should listen to his words before speaking.He paused, looked into Ning Yan's eyes, and said seriously: "No matter what reasons or calculations your majesty has, these calculations are definitely not comparable to your majesty's safety...Does your majesty understand?"

"Throughout the ages, there have been some conquests by emperors themselves." Ning Yan said in a soft tone, "Compared to me, those emperors who expanded their borders faced far more dangers than I did."

"The emperor is the lifeline of this country, and he does not go into danger, not only to protect himself, but also for the peace of the world." Ning Huaijin changed the subject: "But it's not just for this reason that I stopped your majesty."

"...I have selfish intentions." Ning Huaijin sighed and said in a low voice, "I don't want to see Your Majesty in danger."

Ning Yan choked, and the sophistry draft that had been written before suddenly became useless.

If Ning Huaijin argues with him, Ning Yan has thousands of ways to deal with him, whether it's acting like a spoiled child, or putting on a posture of being a monarch and minister, there is always a way to win over Ning Huaijin, No matter whether he is convinced or oral, Ning Huaijin will always lose to him.

But when Ning Huaijin spoke the "truth" to him in such a tone, Ning Yan couldn't say anything.

In the final analysis, Ning Yan admired him, loved him, not only for Ning Huaijin, but also more or less related to him, and he didn't want to see him sad or worried.

Ruan Yin's incident was the first time in his life that he "killed first and played later" in front of Ning Huaijin. At that time, he miscalculated the date of Ning Huaijin's return to Beijing, and he bumped into him at the most embarrassing moment.Ning Huaijin didn't close her eyes that night, and would wake up quickly when she fell asleep when she was extremely sleepy, subconsciously clenched the hand she held with Ning Yan to confirm that he was still there.

He thought Ning Yan was fast asleep, but Ning Yan knew it.

Although Ning Huaijin never said it afterwards, Ning Yan could tell that he was also afraid—fear that something happened to Ning Yan in a place he couldn't see and didn't know, but he couldn't do anything about it.

Ning Huaijin saw Ning Yan's looseness, and tried to persuade him while the iron was hot: "Actually, even if Your Majesty really wants to see Ning Zheng, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Now that Ning Zheng has no way out behind him, he will definitely put all his eggs in one basket and try to escape from danger." Asking for Jiangshan. But as an orthodox majesty, there is really no need to put down your dignity and bet with him in this game."

His words were sincere and sincere, and Ning Yan couldn't help but be moved.

Although Ning Yan knew that he was doing it for his own good, he couldn't promise him.

Ning Yan was full of plans and plans in his heart, but he couldn't say a word to Ning Huaijin.

The ending at the end of this road is too deviant, if Ning Huaijin knows, he will definitely not agree.It would be better for him to do it first and then play it, and it will be too late to say anything later.

Ning Yan was about to harden his heart to reject Ning Huaijin, when He Wenting quietly walked in from the outside, stood at the door and gestured to Ning Yan.

"What's the matter?" Ning Yan asked.

He Wenting bowed his body very low, and said, "Master Jiang, please see me."

At this time, Jiang Xiaohan should discuss the matter of dispatching troops in the cabinet with the six ministries, and he would not come into the palace if there was no serious matter.

Ning Huaijin guessed that they might have reached a bottleneck in their discussion and couldn't make up their minds, so she wanted to ask Ning Yan, so she stopped talking for a while, took a few steps to the side, and sat on the seat where Ning Yan started.

Ning Yan glanced at him, didn't say anything, and instead ordered: "Please come in."

He Wenting bowed slightly, took a few steps back, sang and walked to the door, and welcomed Jiang Xiaohan in.

"Why is the teacher here at this hour?" Ning Yan asked.

"Your Majesty." Jiang Xiaohan saluted hurriedly, then took out a crumpled letter from his sleeve and handed it to He Wenting: "Nanyang urgent report, please read it, Your Majesty."

"Another letter?" Ning Yan frowned slightly.

An urgent report from Nanyang Mansion has just arrived, and it hasn't been warmed up on Ning Yan's table yet.The governor of Nanyang would not say the same thing twice, so the second letter was sent in such a hurry, it was obvious that the local situation had changed.

Ning Yan didn't wait for He Wenting to come over, he simply walked out from behind the desk and took the letter from He Wenting's hand.

The cabinet has already cut and read this letter, and there is still a new stubble on the seal.Ning Yan pulled out the letter paper from inside, shook it and unfolded it, and looked at it at a glance.

He read the letter very fast, and he had a general idea in a few breaths.

This letter was much more scribbled than the previous one, omitting many unnecessary polite speeches, and stated the purpose of coming straight to the point.

——The soldiers of the Anqing Mansion have hurried to fifty miles outside the Nanyang Mansion, and set up camp on the spot.

Just half an hour before this urgent report was sent out, the lobbyist sent by Ning Zheng had just knocked on the gate of Nanyang Mansion. He seemed to have a plan in mind, and bluntly said that it would be better for the governor to open the city gate and let him in, lest he really attack the city. , and made people miserable, increasing casualties in vain.

Ning Yan could guess that Ning Zheng's original words should be more explicit than this, but it's really hard for the governor of Nanyang to write those outrageous words on paper, so the words are more tactful.

According to Ning Yan's understanding of Ning Zheng, he would have to add some words like "If you are sensible, you will be credited with it in the future".

Ning Yan passed the letter to Ning Huaijin without making a sound.

"This—" Ning Huaijin finished reading the letter, and couldn't help but slapped it on the table: "...Ning Zheng is too arrogant!"

Although Ning Huaijin had guessed that Ning Zheng's dispatch of troops this time was to fight to the death, but he did not expect that he would be so shameless and shameless that he almost lost his reputation and face.

——What is he drawing, Ning Huaijin couldn't help thinking.

"The governor of Nanyang temporarily transferred the soldiers to guard the city." Jiang Xiaohan said: "But there are not many soldiers in Nanyang. Counting the number of people, there are only a hundred thousand at most."

"The letter from the governor of Nanyang stated that Ning Zheng brought 60 people with him when he came out this time." Ning Huaijin said: "If he is really determined to slaughter the city, then the small town of Nanyang is not enough for him to swallow it in one gulp."

"Not at all." Ning Yan said: "The third brother just wants the position of Zhen, and he doesn't want to make the world flow into rivers. He rushed to the throne, and he must have regarded the world as something in his pocket. If not Necessary, not to spoil 'his subjects'."

"If he wants to get these, he won't raise troops at this point." Ning Huaijin said.

"My lord's thinking is justified." Jiang Xiaohan persuaded: "We're sitting in the capital, so it's hard to really figure out what King Changle is thinking."

"Teacher, let's go back to the cabinet first." Ning Yan seemed to have his own idea, waved his hand, and said, "Before the defenders from Xijiang come, let the two prefectures around Nanyang send [-] troops each to help. "

"I will issue a decree to the third brother. First call him to take off his armor and enter the capital to face saints. If he resists the decree, he will change his name to make it more reasonable." Ning Yan said: "Besides, from the defenders of the capital I also set aside [-] yuan. I will decree to appoint Zheng Shaohui as General Dingyuan and Zhaoming's deputy in the early morning of tomorrow. I will then ask Ah Zhan to come up with a time to sacrifice the flag and go to war."

Seeing that he had already planned in his mind, Jiang Xiaohan felt relieved and said, "Your Majesty is thoughtful."

"Also." Ning Yan said: "Also ask the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households to come up with a charter. Such a big thing as troop deployment should not be trifling."

"Yes." Jiang Xiaohan agreed: "There are many trivial matters in the cabinet, so the minister will resign first."

"Also." Ning Yan stopped him: "...also ask the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the royal conquest."

Ning Huaijin suddenly got up: "Your Majesty—"

"Teacher, go back to the cabinet and let them know." Ning Yan said quickly, as if afraid of being interrupted by Ning Huaijin, "I don't want to have an argument tomorrow morning."

Jiang Xiaohan's eyes turned around Ning Yan and Ning Huaijin, and from Ning Huaijin's expression, he knew that this was something they hadn't discussed at all.

It's probably Ning Yan's idea alone, Mr. Jiang thought.

"Your Majesty's personal conquest is a major event. I will first speak for His Majesty in the cabinet." Jiang Xiaohan tactfully persuaded him, saying, "Your Majesty can think about it again."

Ning Yan nodded dispensably. Although it looked like a gesture of agreement, no matter how you looked at it, the agreement was very perfunctory.

Although Jiang Xiaohan didn't quite agree, but thinking about such things, Ning Huaijin would always persuade him, so he didn't say anything for the time being, and took the opportunity to leave.

"Do you have to go?" Ning Huaijin didn't expect that Ning Yan would still be so stubborn after he said so much.

Ning Yan didn't want to argue with Ning Huaijin on such a trivial matter, seeing that he refused to let go, his heart became slightly agitated.

"The emperor heard it too." Ning Yan said impatiently: "Who is the third brother? He is a nobleman in Tianhuang! If the prince of the direct relatives faces each other in front of the battle in the future, who would dare to touch him without my imperial decree?" It's a cold hair! Things on the battlefield are changing rapidly, and Ning Zheng is already not enough to see me in his eyes, is it possible that I still watch him use his status as an 'imperial family' to restrain the soldiers!"

"Then I'll go for you, okay!" Ning Huaijin was in a hurry, and she didn't even remember her honorific name: "My surname is Ning, and I'm also a member of the imperial family. Others dare not touch him, but I dare."

"I will meet Ning Zheng before the battle, and I will personally kill him for you, okay?"
