Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

The sound of Ning Zhiwei coming scared everyone out of their wits and they ran away in all directions.

Lin Jingshu was terrified when she heard the deafening sound of the explosives exploding. She wanted to escape but couldn't run. She couldn't go anywhere, so she rolled off the bed in a hurry and crawled around on the ground with great effort.

Someone come save her, she doesn't want to die like this.

"Su Mingjin, come and save me, I am very useful, more useful than anyone else."

She was sweating profusely as she climbed out of the tent. She finally climbed out and looked at the flames rising into the sky with a pale face.

How could the explosives storehouse explode? I have repeatedly told him that the explosives storehouse must be strictly guarded and protected with multiple layers of protection, preferably hidden in a place that no one knows.

Moreover, such dangerous goods cannot be kept in military camps.

What happened? He didn’t listen! He didn’t trust others and insisted on keeping it under his own eyes.

Can such a paranoid and narrow-minded person really unify the Central Plains?

Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her back. The fleeing soldiers stepped on her and she screamed in pain.

But this was just the beginning. Countless people stepped on her. She was in so much pain that she was almost dead. Her vision went blurry and her consciousness gradually faded.

By the time Su Mingjin used force to suppress this wave of riots, countless people had already been killed and injured. This was not caused by the invasion of foreign enemies, but by the trampling of their own people.

Also, there were those who were killed by flying explosives.

It was too close and was affected.

Su Mingjin watched helplessly as the gunpowder depot exploded, leaving nothing behind, feeling angry and annoyed.

Even if he rebuilds it now, it's too late. He shouldn't have put the explosives together, giving others an opportunity to take advantage of it.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. "How did they find the explosives depot so accurately? How did they get in? Investigate, thoroughly investigate."

Those people could sneak in and blow up the gunpowder depot, and could also carry out assassinations. When he thought about his own safety being threatened, he became even more furious.

Seeing this, the Grand Tutor stepped forward and advised, "Your Majesty, now is not the time to conduct a thorough investigation, but rather how to deal with the enemy? Ning Zhiwei is here! She is leading the army in person, so naturally everyone will come out in full force."

Su Mingjin glared at them unhappily. She was just a woman, why was she so nervous? Without the elite Ning family army, no matter how capable she was, she couldn't cause any trouble.

"Why are you panicking? She's not here yet. She's still thousands of miles away."

The Grand Master was stunned, "Are you sure?"

Su Mingjin's intelligence system is not a pushover. "Sure, she's not a deity, it's impossible for her to fly over here. This is just the local garrison."

Even if Ning Zhiwei was made of iron, he would not be able to catch up even if he traveled day and night.

Everyone was skeptical, "But, how come it's so sudden like divine help?"

With one strike, they destroyed the explosives depot and the most lethal weapon, which was also their trump card.

Su Mingjin frowned slightly, "The Jinyiwei took action."

The general muttered, "It's not that serious..."

Su Mingjin was already irritable, and he kept on talking, which made him even more angry. "If you shake the morale of the army again, I will drag you out and chop you off!"

The military advisor sighed silently. Now people were in panic and the soldiers were scared.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Now we should calm the troops and boost their morale."

Su Mingjin suppressed his anger and ordered, "Hold a banquet tomorrow night to reward the three armies."

"Yes."

A guard came in, "Your Majesty, Lin Jingshu is missing."

Su Mingjin's expression changed. "Why doesn't she just stay here? Go, dig three feet into the ground to find her."

Lin Jingshu is a useless person, but her brain is still useful and cannot fall into the hands of others.

"Yes."

At this time, Ning Zhiwei was indeed thousands of miles away, with Jinyiwei commander Yu Qing standing beside him, reporting what happened to Su Mingjin.

Zhou Hongye's eyes widened when he heard this. "My Lord, now I finally understand what it means to plan and win a battle thousands of miles away."

Even though she was so far away, she could still remotely control the situation of the war. He actually witnessed the legendary genius general.

There are often famous generals, but this kind of military genius is rare.

Ning Xinzhe's eyes sparkled with admiration, "Aunt, you are so amazing. You are good at everything, both civil and military."

Before, he only knew that his aunt was very powerful, and that she could use both literary skills to stabilize the country and military skills to pacify the world.

But when he experienced it all personally, he realized where her strength lay.

She is not only a talented commander, but also a tactician who is adept at using tactics to win over people's hearts and minds.

What is even more rare is her ability to strategize and calculate the opponent's situation completely.

He can fight, calculate, and attack the opponent's mind, so his opponent's loss is not unfair.

No wonder she was able to ascend the throne as a woman.

He is so proud to have such an aunt!

Ning Zhiwei smiled and said, "Warfare is a matter of deception. The way to use troops is to be ever-changing and to take the enemy by surprise." Note (1)

The more Ning Xinzhe thought about it, the more interesting it became.

Ning Zhiwei pointed out that "a general must be familiar with astronomy and geography, understand the formation of strange arrays, understand the military situation, and know how to use troops and generals." Note (2)

Ning Xinzhe was full of confidence, "Aunt, I still have a lot to learn, please teach me."

Ning Zhiwei touched his head and said, "He who knows military affairs well is a general, and he who controls the overall situation is a commander. Study hard." Note (3)

Ning Xinzhe has the potential to be a general, but he is a little far from being a commander.

This kind of thing depends on talent. In the face of talent, hard work...is not enough.

However, the Ning family has not been able to produce talented generals in every generation. There was none in the previous generation, and the generation before that was her grandfather, General Ning.

The foundation of the Jin Kingdom is not as good as that of the Ning Family.

Ning Xinzhe nodded vigorously, his eyes full of longing.

At this moment, the guard reported, "Your Majesty, Mr. Xie from the same city wants to see you."

Xie Tongcheng? He was the one who replaced Xiao Linfeng to come to Jiangnan to deal with the noble families. Ning Zhiwei raised his eyebrows and said, "Let him in."

As soon as Xie Tongcheng came in, he bowed deeply and said, "Your Majesty, I, Xie Tongcheng, greet you. Long live your Majesty."

However, he was injured and one of his arms was hung, so it was a bit inconvenient for him to salute.

Ning Zhiwei waved her hand, "Get up."

"injured?"

Xie Tongcheng pursed his lips and said, "Yes, I have encountered nineteen assassination attempts during this period, one every two or three days. The noble families are killing like crazy."

Ning Zhiwei played with the teacup, her face indifferent, "Is the matter in Jiangnan so difficult to deal with?"

Xie Tongcheng was a little gloomy. "They are like weeds that can't be killed off. Many hired farmers and common people have been bewitched and brainwashed by the noble families. They regard the noble families as their masters and are loyal to them."

The aristocratic families have been operating for thousands of years and have long since brought the people of this land under their control. They have been constantly indoctrinating people into believing that they are the real masters of Jiangnan, the bosses of the hired farmers and the common people, and the local tyrants.

Whenever something happens to the aristocratic family, he would instigate these people to jump out and cause trouble. The endless troubles gave him a headache.

Ning Xinzhe on the side was stunned, "What?"

Xie Tongcheng said calmly, "Some have been kneeling for too long and have become enslaved. They are puppets without their own thoughts."

Ning Zhiwei knew that aristocratic families were difficult to deal with, but she didn't expect them to be so difficult and something went wrong so quickly.

The next day, Ning Zhiwei received bad news as soon as he woke up, "Your Majesty, it's bad, Young Master Ning is missing!"
