Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne
Chapter 1077 The Death of King Anding!
Feng Mulan shouted angrily, shocking the whole audience.
The Youzhou soldiers stared at the head in Feng Mulan's hand in astonishment. It was their Marquis Dingjun.
For a moment, the Youzhou soldiers were in a panic.
"What should we do? Marquis Dingjun was killed?"
"Don't panic, the prince is still inside, he must be fine!"
"Yes, she is deceiving us, don't listen to her!"
"But now the Imperial Guards are here, can we still win?"
Some people were panicking, but some people were trying to persuade them. Some people were trying to stabilize the morale of the troops, but some people were terrified.
At this moment, Chu Ning dragged King Anding's seriously injured body to the door of the living room.
All eyes were involuntarily focused on the two of them.
Chu Ning said calmly: "Your prince is here!"
King Anding looked at the head in Feng Mulan's hand, and his blood immediately surged, and he roared:
"You... you dared to kill my son, uh... puff~"
King Anding was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Chu Ning sneered: "Your last support is gone, do you still want to continue fighting?"
"If it weren't for the old King Qin's face, I wouldn't give you this opportunity. If you don't let them lay down their weapons and surrender, I can only order them to be killed!"
The State of Chu is now in a turbulent time, and keeping these Youzhou troops will be of great use.
If all these people were killed, it would not only have no effect, but would also cause panic among the people in the country.
Moreover, if he wants to become emperor in the future, he naturally cannot rely solely on killing people to gain the throne.
Sometimes, you also need to win people's hearts!
King Anding and his son are definitely finished, but Youzhou is still there. If he wants to control Youzhou in the future, he will still need these Youzhou troops.
If he kills all the soldiers and horses in Youzhou now, how will he control Youzhou in the future?
Governing a country is not a simple matter and cannot be done simply by killing people.
If all the people are killed, who will guard the border for the State of Chu?
What's more, these Youzhou soldiers were only following the orders of King Anding and his son. They had no choice at all.
That's why Chu Ning decided to keep these people.
Of course, more importantly, he was worried that the emperor would destroy his bridges after crossing them.
He has no troops in the city now. Once Prince Anding and his son are captured, who can guarantee that the emperor will not take action against him?
Taking Youzhou's troops for his own use can ensure that he can get through the embarrassing period of having no troops at hand.
However, King Anding laughed wildly upon hearing this.
“Hahahaha, hahahaha, hahahaha!”
The laughter was deafening, leaving everyone confused and making the Youzhou soldiers look at each other, at a loss as to what to do.
After a while, the laughter stopped, and King Anding stared at Chu Ning and sneered:
"You really have a good plan. You captured me, killed my son, and you still want my troops to surrender?"
"I'm telling you, as long as I'm still alive, you can't expect them to lay down their weapons and surrender!"
"General Zhang, General Zhou, General Wu, I have treated you well on weekdays. Now is the time for you to show your loyalty."
"Don't worry about me, rush up and kill Chu Ning!"
At this moment, King Anding went completely crazy.
He disregarded his own life and death, just to be a scapegoat for La Chuning.
Even if he died, he didn't want Chu Ning to have an easy time.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the three generals he named did not give any orders. Instead, they stood there, looking at each other, with hesitation on their faces.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, King Anding was immediately furious and roared, "I told you to give the order to attack!"
Seeing this, Chu Ning sneered: "Don't waste your time. No one wants to die. Besides, the winner has already been decided. Do you really think they want to work for you?"
In the horrified eyes of King Anding, Chu Ning looked at the three generals and said calmly:
"Three generals, I know that you were forced by King Anding to follow his orders."
"If you give the order to lay down your weapons and surrender now, I will forgive you for what happened."
"Even after I take charge of Youzhou, your official positions can remain unchanged. What happened today will be treated as if it never happened."
As soon as these words were spoken, the three generals were overjoyed.
"Does your Highness really mean what he said?"
"If Your Highness can truly pardon me, I will lay down my weapons and surrender!"
"Your Highness, please forgive me. I was only following the orders of King Anding and had no idea that he was targeting Your Majesty!"
The three people's statements made King Anding's face change drastically, and he flew into a rage: "You...you three idiots, you actually believed Chu Ning's words!"
"Don't you know who Chu Ning is? He has always been insidious and cunning. Once you put down your weapons, he will definitely attack you."
The three generals who were originally somewhat excited suddenly became a little nervous.
They have heard a lot about Chu Ning's deeds. If it is true as King Anding said, wouldn't they become lambs to be slaughtered after they lay down their weapons?
For a moment, the three of them hesitated.
But at this time, Chu Ning smiled contemptuously: "Prince Anding, I didn't expect that you would want to drag them to be buried with you before you die."
"Now that the Imperial Guards have taken action, do you think they have a chance of winning?"
"Besides, I said what I said just now in front of the old King Qin. If you don't believe me, do you also not believe the old King Qin?"
The old King of Qin's reputation was well-known and guaranteed in the Chu royal family.
At this moment, the old King Qin finally reacted, but with his old body, he came out of the hall with a cane and shouted:
"Everyone, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has said that if you put down your weapons, you will not be held responsible for the past. This king can guarantee this!"
If it were someone else, the Youzhou soldiers would not be very reassured, but since the old King of Qin personally guaranteed it, the situation would be different.
In the entire Chu State, everyone knew how powerful the old King of Qin was.
No one in the royal family dares to offend the old King Qin!
The three Youzhou generals were overjoyed upon hearing this. They looked at each other again, then put down their weapons and said loudly:
"I'm waiting for you!"
The old King Qin breathed a sigh of relief.
What he was most worried about was that the Youzhou troops were stubborn and continuing to fight would only deplete the strength of the Chu State.
Fortunately, with the persuasion of Chu Ning and him, the matter was finally resolved smoothly.
When the Youzhou soldiers behind heard that their general had laid down their weapons and surrendered, they immediately dropped their weapons and squatted on the ground.
This scene made King Anding furious: "Damn you rubbish, you are such a bunch of rubbish!"
Feng Mulan glared at him and kicked him: "This is their choice. Now you should think about what will happen to you!"
As a prince, he was treated like this. Prince Anding was so angry that his whole body was shaking.
Just as he was about to speak, Chu Ning spoke first and asked, "You've already lost. Now tell me how you staged and shot your son with an arrow last night!"
Unexpectedly, King Anding burst into laughter upon hearing this: "Hahahaha, you want to know the truth, but I won't let you have your way!"
"If you want to know the answer, go find it yourself!"
After he finished speaking, his eyes widened, a trace of bright red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, his head tilted, and he died.
Zhao Yu frowned, stepped forward to check, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, King Anding bit his tongue and committed suicide!"
Chu Ning's face darkened.
King Anding is dead, but there is still a mystery that has not been solved!
