Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

This time, after counting to five, the city gate opened silently.

This is the choice of the Imperial Guards.

It's not worth it to risk the lives of the entire family for a half-dead pseudo-emperor.

Yes, a false emperor, he did not receive orthodox recognition.

Moreover, he was poisoned and had been in a coma, waking up for very little time every day. He had no way of controlling the situation or governing the country. He had no offspring, so there was no future in following him.

Since the day he fell into a coma, the morale of the army had already been broken.

If it weren't for the Marquis of Zhennan, there would have been chaos long ago. As soon as the Marquis of Zhennan was captured, everyone surrendered.

There's no need to fight any further.

Eunuch Yan watched as the Ning family army entered the palace, quickly took control of the situation, and took over various important checkpoints.

He could only surrender, cry and beg for mercy, there was nothing he could do.

Ning Zhiwei walked all the way to the bedroom. Most of the palace servants had run away, and only two palace servants were left with the Southern Emperor.

The moment the Southern Emperor saw Ning Zhiwei, his entire body trembled and all the color disappeared from his face.

"You still managed to get in. I never thought that I would lose to a woman."

He never considered Ning Zhiwei as an opponent. He just thought that as a woman, she was jumping around and setting a bad example for all women in the world, so he just wanted to get rid of her.

Unfortunately, he still failed.

Ning Zhiwei looked down at him. He looked pale and frighteningly thin. "If you had stayed in the southwest quietly, you wouldn't have fallen into my hands so quickly."

The Southern Emperor had already heard that she wanted not only the capital, but also the southwest, and even the entire territory of Da Qi.

"You have evil ambitions and are trying to overthrow our Great Qi Dynasty. How can you be worthy of those martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the Qi State?"

"How can you be worthy of General Ning who trained you?"

He still refuses to give up.

After working so hard for so long, and striving so hard, you ended up failing so ignominiously?

Ning Zhiwei sneered, "My grandfather, my uncles, my brothers and sisters died at the hands of your royal family. I have never forgotten this."

In the past, only a group of minions were purged, but the real culprit was the royal family.

In order to seize the throne, the princes got their hands on military power and killed the loyal generals of the Ning family.

It was the Emperor who fanned the flames and watched coldly.

They all deserve to die!

Emperor Nan was very surprised. She was so good at disguising herself before that it was impossible to tell at all that she was still brooding over the Ning family's affairs and had never let it go.

"Are you seeking revenge for them? Ning Zhiwei, if the ruler wants his subjects to die, the subjects must die. Don't you understand?"

Ning Zhiwei said he didn't understand, "I only know that blood for blood, tooth for tooth."

The Southern Emperor was so angry that his face turned thick and he shouted, "Aren't you afraid of being infamous for eternity?"

Ning Zhiwei's eyes were indifferent. "History books are written by the victors, and I am the victor."

Nan Di was stunned for a moment, and then a thought flashed through his mind, "You...did you poison me?"

At this point, there was no need to hide it, Ning Zhiwei admitted, "Yes."

The Southern Emperor was greatly stimulated and trembled with anger. It was this poison that caused him to lose the support of others. No matter officials or soldiers, they all looked favorably upon him.

That's why he surrendered so quickly.

After all this trouble, it was all her fault.

Ning Zhiwei said confidently, "You poisoned me, and I poisoned you. It's fair."

The Southern Emperor's face flushed red, he was filled with anger and hatred. He was a member of the royal family, he could kill anyone he wanted, and the other party had no choice but to die obediently.

No one can resist.

"When exactly is it?"

Ning Zhiwei raised her eyebrows. Could he not have noticed it at all? So stupid? "You forgot that I once wrote to you."

Nan Di suddenly realized, "Which picture album?"

"Yes."

Nan Di closed his eyes, feeling an unprecedented weakness, so tired, and wanted to sleep again. "You are really cruel, and your attack is too brutal."

But he didn't want to die. "What are you going to do with me?"

Ning Zhiwei looked him over and said, "Don't worry, I won't kill you. I'll give you a house and let you spend the rest of your life there."

Nan Di didn't expect that he still had a chance to escape death, and was shocked, "Aren't you afraid that someone will come to save me?"

As long as you are alive, there is a glimmer of hope.

Women are so soft-hearted and don't understand the importance of rooting out the problem.

Who knows, Ning Zhiwei smiled and said, "I couldn't ask for more."

Using the Southern Emperor as bait to lure out a bunch of restless bandits is really making good use of waste.

Besides, he was poisoned and had no one to take care of him, so he was doomed to live a life worse than death.

The Southern Emperor's expression changed from time to time. "If the people knew all this, what would they think?"

Ning Zhiwei said without hesitation, "They will happily welcome my arrival. You have always been high and mighty, trampling on the people at will, so the people will not care about your life or death."

"As long as the people can live a good life, they don't care who is the emperor."

Therefore, it is useless to talk about the people at this time.

Ning Zhiwei took over the capital and had too many things to deal with.

"Xiao Linfeng, you will take over the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Justice, and be responsible for the defense inside and outside the palace. Eliminate all the restless people. All palace maids over the age of 25 must leave the palace. If they have nowhere to go, they will be arranged to stay in the imperial manor."

The palace people’s minds are complicated, and their backgrounds are even more complicated. You never know who has bribed them.

"Yes."

"Zhou Hongye, you will take over the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Rites and be responsible for checking all assets under the name of the royal family, including the imperial farm, the national treasury, the private treasury, etc."

"Yes."

As for the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Works, there is no rush for these two departments. They should first control the situation in the capital.

"Xia Sheng, you will take over the city affairs with a group of Ning's soldiers and be responsible for guarding the four city gates."

"Dongsheng, you will take a Ning family army to garrison Xishan."

"Jiang Feiyun, you go take over the original three camps and integrate them into one army."

"Peony, you lead the women's army to provide free medical treatment and porridge on the streets for seven days to calm the people's hearts."

"Yes."

……

After arranging everyone, Ning Zhiwei came to the Heavenly Prison. She was not unfamiliar with this place, having stayed there for a few days.

Xiao Linfeng came with her. This used to be his territory, and no one was more familiar with it than him.

In the prison cell, a man was lying on the ground with his hands and feet tied and something stuffed in his mouth, motionless, as if he had no breath.

Ning Zhiwei stood at the door and watched for a while. "He Tong, now 28 years old, joined the Ning family army at the age of 16, and has been a soldier for 12 years. He used to be a vanguard under General Ning. He has a wife and a concubine, two sons and a daughter. The eldest son is studying and I heard that his grades are very good."

The man's body trembled slightly.

"Three years ago, you were stabbed 18 times and were on the verge of death. Your companions finally managed to save you from the brink of death. You joined Ning Ran's army and made great contributions to the war."

She looked at the man deeply, puzzled as to why he would sneak attack her?

She shouted fiercely, "Tell me, why did you shoot General Ning in the back with a hidden arrow?"
