Chapter 209: Jinyiwei pacification envoy! The extremely unbearable Prince Ning back then (two in one)
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this, Zi Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
I quickly thanked him again.
Although she had indeed not done anything bad under Empress Dowager Xiao over the years.
But if possible, who would want to bear the heavy consequences?
"Tell me about Empress Dowager Xiao."
The Empress asked, "Also, what role did Pei Kan, the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, play?"
As she spoke, the empress glanced at Zi Yi, whose pretty face showed a trace of panic, frowned, and added: "Don't worry, as long as you tell the truth, I will keep you safe."
It would be strange if you could keep it!
Zi Yi complained in her heart.
There was a hint of struggle on his face, and he was silent for a while.
Then he gritted his teeth.
He said respectfully: "Your Majesty"
So, two hours later.
Zi Yi had just left the Tianluan Palace and was taken to the Northern Pacification Office by Zhao Qiuyu.
At the same time, Zi Yi also has a new identity.
Jinyiwei pacification envoy.
Beizhen Fusi.
Looking at the man in purple with the badge of the Jinyiwei Zhenfushi hanging on his waist, wearing a Feiyu suit, holding an embroidered spring sword, and looking very heroic.
I don’t know when Zhao Qiuyu’s personality changed.
He sighed and said, "I didn't expect you to be so tactful."
"Ah"
Zi Yi sneered and didn't want to pay any attention to this woman.
"Be obedient. You'd better behave yourself during your time in Jinyiwei." Zhao Qiuyu narrowed his eyes upon seeing this, left a threatening word, and turned away.
Only Zi Yi, who looked unhappy, was left standing in front of the gate of the Northern Pacification Office.
"Damn woman."
Zi Yi glared and waved his fist at Zhao Qiuyu's back.
She cursed in a low voice: "Sooner or later, I will let you know how powerful I am."
After cursing, Zi Yi snorted.
He turned around and looked at the Northern Pacification Office in front of him.
"I didn't expect the operation to go so smoothly. It was beyond my expectations." Zi Yi said, taking a deep breath and straightening his clothes.
Walk slowly towards the Northern Pacification Office.
Next, I will probably have to stay in the Jinyiwei for a long time.
Tianluan Palace.
After sending Ziyi to the gate of the Northern Pacification Office, Zhao Qiuyu immediately rushed back: "Big Sister, Ouyang Yue has been sent to the Northern Pacification Office."
"Ah."
Looking at Zhao Qiuyu who came back to report.
The empress standing in front of the window nodded, hummed lightly, and said nothing.
Instead, he stared towards the north in a daze.
She didn't expect that Pei Kan was not Empress Dowager Xiao's man.
But he is Jiang Xuan's man.
The little girl from the Poison King Valley left Chang'an this time not to gather information for Empress Dowager Xiao, but to return to the Poison King Valley to find her master to detoxify her.
And, the power of the Black Ice Platform.
Some of it was beyond her expectations, which made her even more fearful.
That’s right, Zi Yi sold Pei Kan out.
It can even be said that the Empress was told about the background of the Black Ice Platform.
He even told the empress everything about how he was poisoned and coerced by Jiang Xuan, in order to gain the empress's trust.
Of course.
This is also what Pei Kan meant, and this is also what Jiang Xuan meant.
"What exactly do you want to do by placing people in the court?" The empress was silent for a long time before she murmured, her narrow eyes filled with complex expressions and deep fear.
There was another moment of silence.
After almost an incense stick of time, the empress finally came to her senses.
Turning around, she looked at Zhao Qiuyu who had been waiting for His Highness, "Junior Sister, do you think what she said is true or false?"
When Zi Yi reported earlier.
Although Zhao Qiuyu was not in the main hall, he was outside and heard most of what happened.
I was also shocked.
"Maybe it's true." Zhao Qiuyu replied uncertainly after hearing this.
Zi Yi had no need to lie, and she didn't have the courage to do so.
Moreover, this kind of thing simply cannot stand up to scrutiny, even if she lied.
It won't be long before you're seen through.
The descendant of the Poison King Valley would not be so brainless as to lie about such a thing.
But, let’s talk about it.
But Zhao Qiuyu still didn't quite believe it.
After all, as Zi Yi said before, among the sixteen captains of the Black Ice Platform, the weakest one has reached the peak of the celestial phenomena, and those who are at the top of the list in terms of cultivation have all stepped into the ranks of celestial beings.
Such words, no matter who hears them.
I'm afraid some of them can't believe it.
"Whatever, what's the difference between true and false?"
After hearing this, the empress remained silent and pondered for a while.
He ordered: "Since we know Pei Kan is not Empress Dowager Xiao's man, the secret guards near Pei's mansion can be withdrawn. There is no need to keep an eye on them."
"Yes, I will go and inform Lord Shangguan right away." Zhao Qiuyu nodded and accepted the order respectfully.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with the empress's decision.
After all, judging from the current situation, the one in the North is unlikely to rebel.
As for Pei Kan, who was placed in the court by him
It must be said that the princes of the Dawu Dynasty had more or less their presence in the court.
Everyone has his own people.
He's not the only one.
"Go."
The empress frowned and waved her hand casually.
When Zhao Qiuyu was about to leave.
He called her back and said, "By the way, ask Shangguan Yun to find a few smart people to follow the little girl from Poison King Valley."
"clear."
Zhao Qiuyu took the order and left.
【Ding! 】
[Simulation cooldown time has ended]
[The host can select a simulation object at will and simulate its life]
[After the simulation is over, you can get random rewards]
[Possible objects to be simulated: King of Jin, the eldest prince, King of Qin, King of Zhou, King of Chu, King of Zhao, King of Ning]
Just as Zhao Qiuyu was retreating.
A prompt sound suddenly rang in the empress's mind.
"Is the cooldown over?"
Listen to the prompts from the simulator in your mind.
The empress raised her eyebrows and silently said "simulator" in her heart.
Suddenly.
A transparent panel that only she could see appeared before her.
"Prince Ning of the East Sea?"
Looking at Prince Ning who appeared on the panel for the first time.
The empress frowned and murmured, "From the previous simulations, it is unlikely that Prince Ning will rebel. In addition, given Prince Ning's relationship with Jiang Xuan, I don't think anyone would dare to touch him easily. This simulation should take a long time."
After thinking about it, the empress took a deep breath.
He immediately said: "Simulator, simulate the life of Prince Ning."
【Ding! 】
[This simulation object: King Ning]
【Simulation starts】
Accompanied by a prompt sound.
This simulation officially begins.
[You are the Ning Wang of the Great Wu Dynasty, Wu Chenglin] [When you were born, you possessed the power and money that 99% of geniuses cannot have. You are lucky]
But at the same time, you are also unfortunate.
[In the seventh year of Emperor Yuan, you were born on the shore of the East China Sea]
[You are not Emperor Yuan's biological brother. Your father is Emperor Yuan's uncle. During the reign of Emperor Shenwu, he was named Prince of Ning. Your throne is hereditary.]
[The Tenth Year of Emperor Yuan]
[You are three years old at this time]
[As the Prince of Ning, you are a little bully in Donghai Prefecture. You are very noisy and like to play pranks, causing unrest in the palace all day long.]
[Whenever you get into trouble, your father will laugh and hold you in his arms, allowing you to avoid your mother's scolding. At this time, you will often make a face at your mother who is laughing out of anger, and laugh heartlessly.]
However, happiness is always short-lived.
[It was in the winter of that year that your father died. He died in battle to protect the people of Donghai Prefecture, but no war broke out in Donghai Prefecture.]
[And the court said so]
[You were still young and didn’t know what happened at that time]
[You are ignorant and only know that from now on, your father will never come back]
[The 12th year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
[After your father died in battle, your mother fell ill and eventually died.]
[At this time, you were only five years old]
[In the same year, you inherited the title of Prince of Ning, becoming the youngest prince in the Dawu Dynasty who still holds real power.]
[The 15th year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
You are eight years old
[You lost your parents at a young age, and you have become less talkative and timid.]
[Just like that, your entire childhood passed day by day]
[Thirtieth year of Emperor Yuan]
You are twenty-three years old
[This year, the Dawu Dynasty fell into crisis, and the Yuan Emperor sent an imperial edict to the territories of all the vassal kings, asking all the vassal kings to recruit soldiers and horses in their own fiefdoms and work together to defend their country. You are no exception and have received the imperial edict.]
So you immediately start recruiting soldiers.
[Due to the wealth of Donghai Prefecture and your control over the economy of maritime trade, you have countless wealth. In just half a month, you have raised an army of 600,000.]
[After the recruitment was completed, you wrote a letter to Chang'an, asking Emperor Yuan to allow you to join the war]
[Emperor Yuan agreed]
[Let you lead an army of 600,000 from Donghai Prefecture to the south and station troops in Guangling]
Look at this empress.
Her pupils shrank slightly, and her red lips parted slightly: "In just half a month, you have raised an army of 600,000?"
"How rich is Prince Ning?"
You have to know that 600,000 troops eat and drink every day.
It was not a small amount of money, and the imperial court at that time obviously did not have any extra money.
Provide troops for these princes.
So, that time back then.
The princes of the Dawu Dynasty all used their own money to support the soldiers under their command.
Six hundred thousand.
The empress didn't dare to imagine how huge the daily consumption was.
Little did they know that even the Prince of Jin, who had been preparing for many years, could only raise an army of 450,000.
And it only took about ten days.
Most of the food and fodder had been consumed, and the situation was becoming somewhat stretched.
"Back then, they were able to raise an army of 600,000 in just half a month. What about now?" The empress murmured, her face becoming solemn.
[Under the order of Emperor Yuan]
[You immediately led your army to Guangling and stationed troops there.]
[This garrison lasted for a full year]
[The 31st year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
[Dawu Dynasty has suffered defeat on all fronts. You can hear bad news every day.]
[Your heart is burning, but you dare not act without His Majesty’s order]
[At this moment, you can't wait to rush to the battlefield]
[In the midst of thousands of troops, you fought your way in and out seven times, just as brave as your father]
[Yes, your father was here before.]
【The God of War of the Dawu Dynasty】
[Invincible in every battle, a true god of war]
【After your anxious wait, your chance finally comes】
[The 31st year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
[The King of Jin was defeated and Lingnan fell]
[Emperor Yuan ordered you to lead the army to Chongli Prefecture immediately to help the King of Jin retake Lingnan]
You went
[In less than a month, 600,000 troops all rushed to Lingnan]
[You met the King of Jin]
[King Jin is very happy to see you]
[I talked to you a lot about your father’s deeds, and your blood boiled when I heard it.]
[So, you decided to lead an elite group as a vanguard]
[Let the King of Jin follow the central army and make strategic plans]
[After some thought, the King of Jin agreed to your request and immediately asked you to lead 100,000 elite troops as the vanguard army to fight back to Lingnan and recapture the lost territory.]
[You thought you would become famous in one battle and inherit your father's name as the God of War]
But when you actually step onto the battlefield
【You found out you were wrong】
[The cruelty of the battlefield makes you feel terrified]
[When you see soldiers falling down beside you, blood flowing all over the ground, you get scared]
[This battle was a failure as expected, but it was not your fault. After the Wei Dynasty found out you were coming, they led a group of troops to attack you, not wanting you to take back Lingnan. Under attack from both sides, even though the King of Jin was very strategic, he was powerless and retreated again to Chongli Prefecture.]
[After that, you stayed in Chongli Prefecture]
[During this period, he participated in several battles, but his performance was always ordinary, even mediocre.]
[You are afraid of death]
[The King of Jin saw it, and the soldiers saw it too]
【Everyone is disappointed in you】
[So, you were transferred back to the rear by Emperor Yuan, and you left with a fear of loss.]
[The army of 600,000 came with great majesty]
[Only a thousand personal guards accompanied him when he left, and he looked very embarrassed]
[The army under your command was left behind to guard Chongli Prefecture]
[After returning to the rear, you were taken along by the Emperor Yuan, who led the army in person.]
[Emperor Yuan is also disappointed in you]
[After that, you have never been reused]
[Just like a follower, following Emperor Yuan]
[You heard someone secretly mocking you, saying that you are a son of a tiger father and a disgrace to your father. You gnashed your teeth and wanted to rush out and beat that person up.]
[But you know, what the other party said is the truth]
[You are so unbearable]
[You get used to the ridicule. You get angry at first, but after a while, your mindset changes. You no longer want to be like your father, killing people on the battlefield and being admired by the people.]
[Now you just want to end the war quickly, return to Donghai Prefecture to enjoy life, live a peaceful and stable life as an idle prince, and live out your life]
[Just like this, time passed little by little. Under the personal leadership of Emperor Yuan, the war in the Dawu Dynasty became more and more intense.]
[You are beside Emperor Yuan and have heard war reports from all directions. The crisis facing the Great Wu Dynasty this time is much more terrible than you imagined.]
"Prince Ning was so unbearable at that time?"
When the empress saw this, she couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Although she and Prince Ning were not very familiar with each other, they were definitely not strangers.
The matter of Prince Ning.
She knew it more or less.
But today's simulation is different from what she has heard over the years about what happened to Prince Ning.
There are two completely different versions.
As far as she knew, Prince Ning was not that bad.
"wrong."
"In that battle, before Jiang Xuan appeared, there were not many records about Prince Ning, or almost no records at all, so I don't know the inside story." The empress frowned.
He murmured, "So, Father deliberately suppressed what happened in order to save Prince Ning's face?"
