Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

Chapter 425: Did he expose himself on purpose?

Zhang Asi didn't sleep all night. When he saw Ning Zhiwei the next day, there were dark circles around his eyes, as if he had been punched twice.

Ning Zhiwei asked calmly, "Have you thought about it?"

Zhang Ah Si pursed his lips slightly, and after a while he said, "I'll exchange the list for a Hundred Flowers Poison Pill, and 3,000 soldiers, which I can choose myself, and you also have to give me some explosives."

All his subordinates are spies, and none of them are military generals.

Ning Zhiwei raised an eyebrow, "First of all, tell me what you want to do? Secondly, this is a voluntary choice by both parties."

Last night, Zhang Asi thought for a long time, thinking about everything that happened after he was born.

After much thought and repeated weighing, he realized that he had no way out in this land.

With Su Mingjin around, he felt suffocated and lived like a dog.

With Ning Zhiwei around, he was always worried that she would take action. Her killing power was much stronger than Su Mingjin's, and he was no match for her.

There can only be one king on this continent, and he is clearly aware that he cannot defeat Ning Zhiwei no matter in war or by using tricks.

Well, creating a new world is also a good choice.

"I want to go to Nanyang to occupy territory, but before that I want to see if I can capture Su Mingjin. Su Mingjin... has sea charts and treasure ships."

Ning Zhiwei raised an eyebrow, a little surprised, "Where did he come from?"

Zhang Ah Si sighed softly, "It's been passed down from our ancestors. This is the Su family's way out. If the rebellion fails and there is a disaster for the whole family, we can go to sea and hide."

When a family is about to fall, it often starts from within.

Ning Zhiwei raised her eyebrows. The Su family had thought long-term and even made arrangements for a way out.

She even felt that the Su family had their own island overseas, and Su Mingjin could have chosen anywhere else, but chose the southeastern coastal area, which would make it convenient for her to escape at any time.

"I want the sea charts, the treasure ships... I want the construction technical data and drawings." She needs a strong navy!

Zhang Asi's expression changed. "The construction data and drawings of the treasure ship are OK, but the sea charts are not."

From drawing to construction, it would take at least ten years to go out to sea, and these ten years were enough for him to establish a foundation overseas.

However, nautical charts are of extraordinary significance and are the most indispensable item when sailing.

"Okay, that's settled."

Zhang Asi received half a Hundred Flowers Detoxification Pill and three thousand soldiers, and agreed to give him the other half later. He gave half of the list first.

As for explosives, they can be given to him, but only when he goes out to sea.

He didn't dare to choose from the Imperial Guards and the Embroidered Uniform Guards, as these were Ning Zhiwei's confidants.

He didn't dare to choose from the Ning family army, which was Ning Zhiwei's direct lineage.

The ones he picked were those who were recruited later. They were not considered direct descendants, but they had received training from Ning Zhiwei, had been on the battlefield, and had a certain combat capability.

The medical tent was crowded even though there was no fighting. Soldiers came here to receive treatment for their old injuries.

Shaoyao walked around the tent, checked the situation, and looked at the reserve of medicinal materials. The missing herbs had to be replenished quickly.

She quickly took a pen and wrote it down, busying herself around.

When Ning Qiusheng came over, she had just sat down to catch her breath, "Peony, the emperor wants you to come over."

"Okay." Shaoyao stood up, picked up her medicine box and walked out.

Ning Qiusheng saw this and stretched out his hand, "Let me help you get it."

“No, no.” Although Shaoyao is a princess, she is not as delicate as a princess and still does her own things.

The two men were walking side by side and bumped into Zhang Asi who was walking towards them.

"Miss Peony."

He seemed not to see Ning Qiu Sheng and simply ignored him. Ning Qiu Sheng was not angry and just glanced at him indifferently.

Shaoyao looked calm, "What's the matter?"

Zhang Ah Si looked at the calm and composed girl and was startled. "I want to invite you to go to Southeast Asia to conquer the world. When the time comes, I will be crowned the emperor and you will be the queen. How about the two saints ruling the country?"

Ning Qiusheng: ...Is this guy crazy? It's not enough to dig up the soldiers, he also came to dig up Miss Shaoyao. He is so brave. Isn't he afraid of being chopped down by the emperor?

Shaoyao was unmoved, not even blinking. "I won't leave my lady. Wherever she is, I'll be there."

Zhang Asi sighed regretfully. What's wrong with these people? Each one is harder to dig out than the other. Digging out those three thousand soldiers has exhausted him.

"Then, can your men give up?"

"I offer one thousand taels of silver per person. If the medical staff are willing to follow me, please don't stop me, okay?"

Shaoyao frowned slightly, "Have you already gone to lobby?"

Zhang Asi looked at her sincerely, "No, I'll ask you first."

Shaoyao was a little annoyed with him. He was too cunning. It was not that she didn't understand some things, but she was too lazy to think about them. "What if I don't allow it?"

Zhang Ah Si sighed again, "Then, I can only go out and look for someone."

Shaoyao wanted to refuse, but when the words came to her lips, she changed her mind and said, "You can go and ask."

Zhang Ah Si was shocked. "Thank you Miss Shaoyao. I want to buy some medicine. 50 doses of each kind."

The more he looked at her, the more he was reluctant to let her go. She was not only skilled in medicine, but also capable of taking care of people and considerate. Ning Qiu Sheng blocked his sight calmly. The two looked at each other, and there was a strong sense of tension.

Shaoyao didn't see their interaction. She was calculating the inventory in the warehouse. "Okay."

The two of them agreed on the medicine purchase list, and Zhang Ah Si suddenly took out a jade pendant and said, "Miss Shaoyao, this is for you."

Shaoyao was startled and took a few steps back, "I don't want it."

She didn't want to have anything to do with him! She didn't want to leave her young lady.

She looked like she was trying to avoid him, and Zhang Ah Si felt bad. "This is a parting gift. Take it. You never know when you might need it."

Seeing that she refused to accept it, he placed the jade pendant on the ground and then turned and left.

Ning Qiusheng picked up the jade pendant and took a look at it. This jade pendant... the pattern seems to be the national flower used by the royal family of the previous dynasty? "What is this guy playing at? Miss Shaoyao, don't fall for it, he is playing tricks on me."

Shaoyao didn't think much about it. "I know these cunning men are deliberately approaching me to deceive my favor."

She turned around and saw the man with an indescribable expression. She realized that the blow was too great and laughed dryly, "I'm not saying you're scheming, and you didn't approach me on purpose."

Ning Qiu Sheng: ...How about you think about it again?

He handed the jade pendant to Ning Zhiwei, who looked at it without commenting and just asked someone to put it away.

Zhang Asi recruited soldiers and was finally leaving. Zhou Hongye watched them leave and couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart.

"Your Majesty, do you think he exposed himself on purpose?"

Ning Zhiwei raised his eyebrows and looked at the jade pendant in his hand, thoughtfully.

"It's hard to say, but it's possible. Anyway, how can someone who can become the leader of a secret spy organization and still be alive today be a fool?"

Regardless of what he thought, they got what they wanted.

Zhou Hongye also took a look at the jade pendant and said, "He does seem to have some true feelings for Miss Shaoyao."

Ning Zhiwei snorted coldly, "People like them who have learned to calculate since birth have no purity in their bones, and Shaoyao deserves a man who loves and cares for her wholeheartedly."

None of the men in the Su family are good matches.

"Okay, break camp as planned and continue south."

Well, it’s going south, not north. Many people will cry.

"Yes."
