Yue'e continued: "The three highnesses will not give up, but how the three highnesses will fight, I really can't guess."
The conversation changed again, and Yue'e said: "Yue'e has the guts to say another disrespectful word.
His Highness Wu Zhao is a woman no matter what.
The world of the Wu Dynasty will ultimately be dominated by the blood of the Wu family.
So even if Her Highness Wu Zhao really becomes the Queen, it will be a hundred thousand years later.
Wouldn't the throne still fall to the blood descendants of the three His Highnesses?
So I would venture to guess that the three Highnesses will never fight His Highness Wu Zhao to the death."
At this time, Ning Chen really wanted to give Yue'e some popular science about biology and genetics.
The children Wu Zhao gave birth to were also half-blooded.
But even if I say this, they won’t understand it, let alone believe it.
It's just that Yue'e's statement is easy to believe at first glance.
As for the actual situation, Ning Chen didn't believe it would be so peaceful.
"So what do you three want me to do now?" Ning Chen did not continue to delve deeper, but returned to the previous question.
"We hope that Sir, when His Highness Wu Zhao wants to return the military talisman.
You can take the lead in urging His Highness Wu Zhao not to return the military symbols.
After all, when these words come out of our mouths, they will seem a bit pretentious.
And His Highness Wu Zhao will definitely consider the words coming from the mouths of adults and officials."
This is what Yue'e and the others wanted.
This really caught Ning Chen off guard.
Originally, Ning Chen thought that Yue'e and the others came to him in the hope that he would stand on their side and ask for rewards on their behalf.
The result was that he supported them and moved towards justice.
I took a look at my event selection prompt.
【Event Selection】
[1. Comply with the requirements of the three princes and obtain 100 points of [Loyalty]. Subsequently, all evaluations related to the event will be automatically converted into corresponding official points. 】
[2. Disobey the requirements of the three princes and obtain 100 [佞] points. Afterwards, all evaluations related to the event will be automatically converted into corresponding official points. ]
Obedience is [loyalty], disobedience is [sycophancy].
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this.
"So I can continue to ask for rewards on their behalf, gain this own [佞] point, and then gain a wave of [佞] points from the civil and military officials of the dynasty."
"Well, that way, it's safer."
"Besides, I received money from others, so how can I undermine others?"
"When they came here this time, they must have hoped that I would come against them, but they couldn't say it clearly."
After making a decision in his heart, Ning Chen directly accepted the entrustment of the three people.
After the four of them drank a cup of tea together, all three of them left Ning Chen's house on the pretext of going back to recover.
After about half a quarter of an hour, Yue'e unexpectedly left and returned.
"You have other things to do when you come back?" Ning Chen didn't know what Yue'e wanted to do when she came back.
Yue'e said: "My master, there is one more thing that I would like to discuss with Master Ning."
"What's the matter?" Ning Chen asked directly.
"My master wants to pay three million taels to buy 10% of the shares of the winery owned by Mr. Ning." Yue'e told Ning Chen what the seventh prince had told him.
Three million taels for 10%.
This is equivalent to directly giving his own winery, which is valued at 30 million taels.
If this was calculated based on shares, Ning Chen would be a multi-millionaire.
However, Ning Chen was not satisfied with the valuation of thirty million taels.
For Marquis Dingguo and Wang Lin, their annual fixed income is almost 200,000 taels of profit.
Coupled with the profit after spreading out, it will be at least three hundred thousand taels a year.
The two together add up to more than 500,000 taels.
A winery with an annual profit of more than 500,000 taels, and you value it at 30 million taels, who are you looking down on?
Ning Chen shook his head and said: "Three million taels, at most it accounts for a quarter of 10%. You go back and ask your master, if he agrees. If he agrees, I will take the money from him."
If you don't agree, it can only be said that we have no chance to cooperate."
Not to mention her master, even Yue'e felt that Ning Chen had no sincerity in cooperating.
"Master Ning, you can actually think about it seriously. My master's business is spread across the four northern states.
If Mr. Ning is willing to let my master take a share, then the sales of Mr. Ning’s wine in the four northern states will definitely be unimpeded."
This is considered inducement and threat.
But Ning Chen doesn't accept this trick.
"Your master may have misunderstood. I don't want to go to the four northern states to develop my own wine business.
After all, it's such a long journey, and the wine might be damaged if delivered there, which would be too expensive.
Counting Jingzhou and other nine states, it’s enough for me to live on.”
Nine to four, this ratio is easy to compare.
So Yue'e found that her master seemed to have no advantage at all.
It's just that the ratio Ning Chen said is still a bit too much.
"I will go back and tell my Highness about this matter. As for the specific decision, my Highness still needs to make the decision."
"Easy to say, easy to say. Business cannot be done without righteousness."
Yue'e left this time and never came back.
After dinner, Ning Chen went directly to the Imperial College.
Ning Chen really doesn't understand the choices of these three princes.
But he has his own brains.
Spend your brain cells thinking about this.
Wouldn’t it be nice to just ask the answer directly?
After Ning Chen arrived at the Imperial Academy, he went directly to Kong Jijiu's humble room.
As soon as Ning Chen arrived, he took a look at the picture stone in Kong Jijiu's hand that he had given to Wan Hong.
Ning Chen discovered that as long as it involves making money, Wanhong's execution and action abilities are extremely fast.
The things I told you at noon were delivered to Kong Jijiu this evening.
You can tell from Kong Jijiu's expression that now that he has asked Wan Hong to spread the word among the people, and Kong Jijiu personally endorses the humble house, there should be no problems.
"Master Kong, General Xu, I came here because of something, and I want to ask for your opinions." Ning Chen said straight to the point.
Kong Jijiu nodded and told Ning Chen to just ask.
Ning Chen immediately told Kong Jijiu and Xu Muzhi what the three princes had sent envoys to tell him.
After Kong Jijiu listened to Ning Chen's story, he couldn't help but nodded: "The three of them used this move to retreat in order to advance, which was a good use.
And this is a conspiracy, Xiao Wu Zhao cannot hide even if he wants to."
"Master Kong, please make it clear." Ning Chen didn't quite understand what Kong meant by offering wine.
"Marquis Dingguo turned in his military talisman, which indeed showed his support for Xiao Wu Zhao.
At the same time, he did have the intention to force the feudal princes and princes to imitate him and surrender their military power.
It's just that King Jing was defeated in the south, and now he is a little embarrassed.
The defeat in the south will inevitably lead to the entire imperial court's layout being updated to favor the south.
In this case, all the pressure from the north will fall on the four northern states.
The four northern states were exactly where these Qin kings and vassal kings guarded.
If they hand over their own military talismans at this time, it will not matter whether Xiao Wu Zhao accepts them or not.
If you accept it, there will be war in the north.
All matters of deploying troops and generals will fall on Xiao Wu Zhao's head.
When the time comes, if something goes wrong, the northern defense line will be breached.
Xiao Wu Zhao is beyond redemption.
Losing the position of crown prince is a minor matter, and one may be directly executed.
But if you don’t collect it now, you won’t have the chance to collect it in the future.”
After hearing Kong Jijiu's words, Ning Chen took the word execution very seriously.
"After all, he is the crown prince. If there is any mistake, he will be executed if he is told to be executed, right?" Ning Chen asked with a frown.
In Ning Chen's plan, Wu Zhao was just temporarily quiet before he became invincible.
After all, the feelings of an empress and a princess may be different.
So Ning Chen definitely didn't want anything to happen to Wu Zhao.
Xu Muzhi explained to Ning Chen: "Border affairs are all major events. If the north is just broken through, it does not cause too much damage.
That might just mean losing the position of crown prince. But if it causes particularly big losses and then also loses the city.
In order to fight back, the royal family's children who had been seriously improperly commanded, or who had become deserters, were killed to sacrifice the flag.
This kind of thing has happened several times.”
"Thankfully I came over and asked, otherwise Wu Zhao would have been killed by himself."
Ning Chen couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
Kong Jijiu glanced at Ning Chen and continued: "If Xiao Wu Zhao wants to get out of the siege now, there are only two choices.
The first is to take over these military powers and wait for changes in the north.
With his own strength, he can directly decide the world with one blow.
In this case, there will be no suspense about the throne.
But this move is a bit too risky.
The second one is to not accept their military symbols and slowly accumulate your own strength.
Just a little bit can turn things around."
Ning Chen thanked Kong Jijiu, but Ning Chen did not intend to use either of these tricks.
Ning Chen planned to use his own tactics to resolve this matter and protect his own side, Da Wuzhao.
Of course, at the same time, Ning Chen also needs to secure the [Nie] point.
Because Ning Chen felt like he had discovered the real way to use this system.
Ning Chen is very confident about winning the [佞] point steadily this time.
"Master Kong, do you have any information on those three princes?" Ning Chen asked Kong Jijiu.
Kong Jijiu didn't answer, but Xu Muzhi answered Ning Chen's question: "I have their detailed information here."
As he spoke, Xu Muzhi took out a jade slip and said to Ning Chen: "It contains all the information about the royal family members."
In ancient times, collecting these was a serious crime of decapitation.
Ah, Marquis Dingguo asked you to collect it, so that’s okay.
Of course, for the royal family members, at this time, they have to think about whether to hide one or two bloodlines among the people.
If you do anything, let Marquis Dingguo take care of it.
After carefully reading the information given by Xu Muzhi, Ning Chen left the Imperial College.
After leaving the Imperial College, Ning Chen silently deduced the plan he had thought of in his mind.
This time Ning Chen felt that he could do it!
The reason why Ning Chen is so confident is that he will definitely succeed this time.
It was because Ning Chen realized that he had completely fallen into a misunderstanding.
Therefore, Ning Chen is definitely stable this time around.
Early on the next morning, Ning Chen came to the Imperial Academy with Wan Hong and the [Red Flame] that Xu Muzhi wanted.
The black cavalry had already been waiting to set off. After counting the number, Xu Muzhi wrote a note to Ning Chen with the private seal of Marquis Dingguo.
With this note, Wan Hong could go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to collect the money.
Before leaving, Xu Muzhi bowed deeply to Kong Jijiu.
Then he said to Ning Chen: "If you have nothing to do, you can go to the Great Wall of Righteousness to have a look.
That’s where men of our generation should go.”
Ning Chen looked sideways at Xu Muzhi: "Don't be of my generation, we are of my generation. We are not of the same generation.
I'm only twenty-one this year, but you always look like I'm fifty."
Xu Muzhi:ヽ(｀⌒′メ)ノ
Cultivation can help people delay aging, such as Kong Jijiu, a person in his seventies.
But he has always maintained the image of a handsome middle-aged man dressed in white.
Another example is Xu Muzhi, who is 49 years old but still looks like a young man.
Of course, at Xu Muzhi's age, among practitioners, he can really only be considered a young man.
As for Ning Chen, he is not a human being at all.
"I really envy you guys for living so long."
Listen, is this human talk?
But Xu Muzhi really didn't know that Ning Chen's envy was from the bottom of his heart.
After all, Xu Muzhi will never understand: what you despise is exactly what others desperately want.
Xu Muzhi left an emoticon and then closed the dialog box.
I left Fengjing with the wine and the black knight.
Xu Muzhi's departure from Fengjing did not cause much disturbance.
After all, after two days of fermentation, Prince Jing's defeat was already an open secret in Fengjing official circles.
The public still doesn't know about this.
Because I don’t have that person, I feel that I can withstand Prince Jing’s anger.
No one dared to spread this matter to the public.
Therefore, Prince Jing's defeat became a secret shared by everyone.
When two officials met, they didn't open their mouths at first. One of them pointed at the bronze mirror, and the other knocked it over.
In this way, the two people will understand that they are all members of a secret circle.
Another ten days have passed, and the time has come to October 11th.
Today is the 100-day period for Wu Zhao to supervise the country.
According to the etiquette of the Wu Dynasty, both the prince and the vassal king will pay homage to the new crown prince today.
At the same time, today, all civil and military officials can submit memorials at will.
No one will be punished for pointing out the fault of the new crown prince, regardless of whether he is a censor or not.
Moreover, in today's morning court, Emperor Shun, who has disappeared from everyone's sight for a hundred days, will make an appearance.
When Ning Chen arrived at the palace gate, he found that all the civil and military officials had arrived in great order today.
The key is that everyone's official uniforms look brand new.
This scene reminded Ning Chen of the sports meeting in his elementary school.
They all wore school uniforms and white shoes, and the white shoes were so dazzling that they all looked energetic.
Closest to the palace gate, there were nine people wearing python robes standing there.
The python robe is the clothing worn by princes and feudal lords.
The prince wears the nine-python suit, and the vassal king wears the seven-python suit.
So it is easy to tell which three are princes and which six are feudal princes.
Although Ning Chen has never met the three princes, Ning Chen has read their information from Xu Muzhi.
It's easy to distinguish between the three.
The one with a mature face, the oldest one, and a pleasant look to everyone, but the only thing missing is the word benevolence and righteousness written on his face is the eldest prince - Wu Yu.
Another rebellious person who refused to let strangers in was the third prince - Wu Yan.
The last one who had both sides and seemed wild and uninhibited was the Seventh Prince - Wu Ang.
Ning Chen directly ignored three of the remaining six vassal kings.
There is no other reason, because these three vassal kings are actually the uncles of the three princes.
So it is completely useless to remember them, because they themselves support the three princes.
Why don't they support their own children?
They thought about this, but before doing this.
They had to ask Prince Jing's cavalry if they would agree.
It must be said that the existence of Prince Jing’s cavalry.
For the Wu family, it is indeed a great blessing.
Although the Wu Dynasty was also faced with the problem of vassal kings supporting their own troops, but even if these vassal kings wanted to rebel, they had to support the Wu family bloodline.
There were people in the previous dynasty who wanted to take advantage of the death of the late emperor to cause trouble.
As a result, Prince Jing's cavalry descended from southern Xinjiang in just three days.
The battle ended in one day, and the feudal lord who wanted to cause trouble had hundreds of people in his family.
It was directly turned into a Jingguan and placed at the door of the house.
Among the other three vassal kings, only one looked like a snake spirit, which made Ning Chen take a second look.
This vassal king is the upstart who replaced the vassal king who disappeared.
Of course, the reason why Ning Chen pays most attention to him is that he is a vassal king with demon blood.
His mother, just like the feudal king, was a snake.
The only pity is that the surname of this vassal is not Xu.
When the Seventh Prince Wu Ang saw Ning Chen coming, he signaled from afar.
This is in line with the way businessmen do it. Buying and selling cannot be righteous.
What if there is another opportunity to cooperate in the future?
Ning Chen also returned the greeting remotely.
Just this one back and forth gave many people countless interpretations in an instant.
Nowadays, it is more sensitive, and every eye contact between the courtiers and these princes will be recorded by those who are interested.
Therefore, most of the officials lowered their heads today and stayed away from the prince's circle.
Wu Ang didn't expect that Ning Chen would dare to respond to him at this time.
I couldn't help but smile, thinking that Ning Chen was such a wonderful person.
I should communicate with Ning Chen in depth, maybe there can be some other cooperation between the two.
The drums sounded.
This time, the prince and the feudal lord walked in front.
The officials followed behind, keeping a certain distance.
Everyone entered the Jinluan Palace, and Ning Chen once again saw Emperor Shun who had disappeared for a hundred days.
It must be said that Emperor Shun's hundred days of cultivating immortality was somewhat effective.
Emperor Shun indeed looks much younger now than he did a hundred days ago, and his face is much more radiant.
It can be seen that the job of the emperor is indeed not easy to do.
Wu Zhao still stayed in her former position of supervising the country.
"See your majesty, see your highness!"
Everyone saluted together.
Only when Emperor Shun ordered everyone to abstain from etiquette did everyone get up.
Supervising the country for a hundred days, these are all followed by etiquette.
So Ning Chen can just stand down and listen.
A series of songs of praise, followed by various rainbow farts.
Then hundreds of officials began to remonstrate with Wu Zhao.
Ning Chen felt that this matter was too superficial.
Even if you don't get punished for what you say today, no one is afraid of being hated by Wu Zhao.
What's more, now the court has an additional Dharma minister.
Punishment that is not as good as that of a doctor has long since become history.
Except for the censor who has some privileges, don't even think about it for others.
After the officials gave their advice, it was the turn of the prince and the vassal king to pay their respects.
After a series of salutes, the climax of the ceremony finally came.
It’s time for everyone to express (give) loyalty (gifts) and heart (things)!
In unison, the six vassal princes and three princes all presented the military talismans in their hands as a token of their sincerity.
Wu Zhao had actually already received the news that they would send military symbols at the same time.
So when they sent the soldier talismans at the same time, Wu Zhao wasn't too surprised.
The military talismans of the vassal king and the prince were all brought up.
Next, it depends on how Wu Zhao responds.
To answer or not to answer.
"I am very pleased that my three ministers and six beloved ministers can have such magnanimity."
Emperor Shun said with a kind face.
Emperor Shun must have a friendly face, because this matter has nothing to do with him.
Moreover, if this matter spreads, it will also improve Emperor Shun's reputation.
Under his governance, the royal family members, brothers, friends, and brothers respected each other. The vassal kings were even more sensible and knowledgeable.
This is all his credit.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say." Before Emperor Shun could hand over the military talisman and order someone to hand it over to Wu Zhao, Ning Chen stood up.
Ning Chen and Emperor Shun were still very impressed.
After all, they are comrades who have fought together.
"If Ning Aiqing has anything to say, just say it."
Ning Chen said: "Your Majesty, I believe that not only should the military talisman of the six vassal kings and three Qin kings be withdrawn now.
They should also be given a big reward.
Six vassal kings and three princes defended the country and guarded the borders, and they worked hard and achieved great results.
If we take back the military talisman now, wouldn't it make people all over the world criticize us?
Therefore, I believe that the emperor’s grace should be demonstrated at this time.
We should take advantage of His Highness's opportunity to supervise the country for a hundred days.
I would like to give a good reward to nine people who guarded the country's borders.
Let the world see that Your Majesty has never forgotten them."
This is completely different from the script they gave Ning Chen.
For a moment, the three princes all turned back to look at Ning Chen.
Ning Chen also gave them an expression: Don't worry, I took the money and I know what to do.
But does Ning Chen really know what to do?
Looking at Wu Zhao's expression, he seemed to have no expectation that Ning Chen would choose to stand up at this time.
"Your Majesty, I object to Master Ning's proposal.
The three princes were to guard the country for the Wu Dynasty. Taizu said that guarding the country was the responsibility of the princes and princes.
Since it is a matter of duty, there should be no reward.
The six vassal kings indeed worked hard and achieved great results.
However, throughout the dynasties, there have been enough rewards.
The thrones of the six vassal kings are now hereditary, and the emperor's favor is so great."
Ning Chen glanced at Sun Kejian, who stood up and actively cooperated with him.
For the first time, I thought Comrade Sun was so cute.
At this time, someone must stand up and refute themselves.
Only in this way can you appear to be a treacherous person.
For example, Comrade Lao Sun quietly provided Ning Chen with 10 points of [佞].
"Comrade Sun is a bit incompetent. In the past, it was always 20 points."
Could it be that I was stabbed in the back several times, which left a good impression on Comrade Sun?
It seems that I have to find an opportunity that day to let Comrade Sun suffer a few more blows.
