Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

"Keep you?"

Chu Ning sneered: "Although you have some talent, it is not to the point where I am afraid of you. I will not be so petty as to attack a mere scholar like you."

"Even if I want to kill you, I will do so after I conquer the Qin capital."

"I am keeping you here just to ask if Princess Changping has already set out?"

Zhang Yi laughed loudly: "This matter is not something that a commoner like me can know. The Crown Prince of Chu is very powerful. Send someone to investigate, maybe there will be some results."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left.

Ran Ming was furious when he saw this: "Your Highness, this man is too presumptuous. Let me teach him a lesson!"

Anyone dares to be arrogant in front of Chu Ning, which makes Ran Ming very uncomfortable.

He is just a commoner, he wants to go out and teach this guy a lesson.

But Chu Ning narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Let him go. If you attack him now, you will only lose your reputation."

"Even though two countries are at war, they still don't kill the envoys. I still have some magnanimity."

"Now the Qin State has made a move to marry Princess Changping to Cao Zhang. This is indeed unexpected. I cannot sit idly by."

"You must immediately reorganize your military and be ready to attack at any time upon my command."

"Mr. Su, ask the Royal Guards to investigate this matter. Once there is any news, report it immediately."

"Yes!" Everyone bowed and left.

Everyone knows Chu Ning's feelings for Princess Changping, and no one dares to be careless.

All of a sudden, the Chu army began to move.

On the one hand, he was preparing to attack the city, and on the other hand, he sent the Jinyiwei to investigate.

And a day later, Zhang Yi returned to Hecheng.

Upon learning the news, Ying Zheng summoned him immediately.

"See Your Majesty!"

"Hahahaha, Mr. Zhang is really talented!"

Ying Zheng smiled and helped Zhang Yi up, saying loudly: "I have heard about it. You entered Yucheng alone and were able to escape unscathed. This is really admirable."

"Someone, bring up the seal!"

The imperial guards, who had been prepared long ago, immediately brought out a seal.

Zhang Yi looked calm and said seriously, "Your Majesty, our dynasty already has a prime minister. If I were to become the prime minister again, I'm afraid it would put Prime Minister Baili in a dilemma."

"No no no!"

Ying Zheng laughed and said, "I have appointed left and right prime ministers, one for internal affairs and one for external affairs, and they will not interfere with each other."

After these words were spoken, Zhang Yi knelt on the ground, respectfully took the seal with both hands, and said in a deep voice:

"I thank your majesty for your grace!"

Ying Zheng was overjoyed, helped Zhang Yi up, and said with a smile: "From now on, you will stay by my side!"

After a pause, he said seriously, "What does Prime Minister Zhang think Chu Ning will do next?"

As soon as he was appointed as prime minister, he immediately changed his words.

Zhang Yi didn't care about the name, and said calmly: "With Chu Ning's personality, he will definitely make preparations for both situations!"

"On the one hand, prepare for war, and on the other hand, send people to inquire about Princess Changping's news."

"What Your Majesty needs to do now is to send someone to send Princess Changping to Wei, but at the same time, you must inadvertently let the Chu spies know about this."

"Once Chu Ning is sure of this, he will definitely go to the State of Wei to discuss this matter. By then, the war here will definitely be suspended."

"By then, we just need to find a way to make Wei refuse to hand over Princess Changping and let Cao Zhang of Wei marry Princess Changping as soon as possible. Chu Ning will definitely be anxious."

"People make mistakes when they get anxious."

"Perhaps by then, it is not impossible for Chu Ning to directly lead his troops to attack the State of Wei."

These words made Ying Zheng's eyes light up, revealing a hint of excitement: "Zhang Xiang is indeed smart, this move of diverting disaster to the east is indeed successful, the flames of war will spread to Wei."

"If Chu attacks Wei, together with the Han Dynasty, Wei will be unable to resist. By then, I can also send troops to capture some cities of Wei!"

After saying that, Ying Zheng made a prompt decision: "Come here, send Princess Changping to Wei immediately. Remember to hide your whereabouts, but make sure the spies from Chu know about it."

Once you have a plan, of course you have to execute it immediately.

If you can't win head-on, you can only use tricks.

War is not just war, it is more about politics.

Two hours later, the sky darkened and a luxurious carriage quietly left Hecheng under the cover of night.

But this scene was seen clearly by the Jinyiwei.

They quickly sent a pigeon to pass the news to Yucheng.

At this moment, it’s dead of night.

Yucheng, at the door of the house where Chu Ning was staying.

Guards stood on both sides, a lantern was hung high at the door, and a man stood at the door with his hands behind his back.

The north wind howled at night, but it still couldn't change Chu Ning's mind.

He is waiting!

Wait for news from the Jinyiwei of Hecheng.

Princess Changping's experience made him very anxious. He wanted to know as soon as possible whether Princess Changping had been sent to the State of Wei.

If he really went to Wei, he would definitely try to rescue him.

Whether it was for Princess Changping's life-saving grace or for repaying Princess Changping's favor!

So, he has to wait for news tonight.

Nearing midnight, the howling north wind blew on my face, making me feel painful.

Zhao Yu, who was standing behind him, frowned when he saw this and said, "Your Highness, please go in and rest. I will wait here. If there is any news, I will inform you immediately."

But Chu Ning shook his head and said, "No need, I will wait here in person!"

Although Princess Changping slashed him with a sword, if she had not shown mercy, he would have been a corpse by now.

This was also what puzzled him. He had to rescue Princess Changping as soon as possible and get to the bottom of the matter.

This matter has always been a hurdle in his heart!

While he was deep in thought, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves. Chu Ning looked up and saw Su Tingmei riding a horse towards him, escorted by several soldiers.

"See Your Highness!"

Su Tingmei dismounted, saluted, and said in a deep voice: "The Jinyiwei has sent a message, please have a look, Your Highness!"

Chu Ning took the information without saying a word, opened it and his face suddenly turned ugly.

"Humph!"

He exerted force with both hands, and the information was instantly crushed to pieces: "This is outrageous!"

"The Emperor of Qin, who couldn't defeat our army head-on, actually wanted to target his daughter and actually sent someone to send Princess Changping to Wei!"

Su Tingmei, who already knew the news, had a gloomy face: "Your Highness, it seems that the Qin army is not sure of dealing with our army's next attack, so they resorted to this method."

"Now that Princess Changping has been sent to the Kingdom of Wei, I wonder what Your Highness is going to do next?"

Chu Ning raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but did not answer. Instead, he paced back and forth on the spot.

He's weighing the pros and cons.

Ying Zheng's game was beyond his expectations.

On the one hand, he did not want to give up the advantage he had gained, but on the other hand, he could not watch Princess Changping marry Cao Zhang.

After hesitating for a moment, Chu Ning sighed and said, "This matter still needs to be carefully considered. I will gather everyone together tomorrow to discuss the next steps!"

Su Tingmei was shocked. She had already anticipated what Chu Ning would do next, but she could only bow and salute:

"Subordinate to obey!"

He knew that he couldn't stop Chu Ning, so his only option now was to hope that Chu Ning wouldn't act on impulse.
