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

"Your Highness, the person you are looking for is..."

"Shen Wanying!"

Chu Ning took off the white cloth in his hand and said calmly: "Only this princess can help me integrate the shops sent by my brothers!

If we take back all these shops, the craftsmen can forge in them, but they will only forge semi-finished products, and the final products will be assembled in the palace."

As he spoke, Chu Ning had already taken off the white cloth in his hand and walked straight out of the hall.

Guan Yun and Zhao Yu looked at each other.

Late in the night, His Royal Highness the Prince is going to look for Princess Shen who is about to get engaged?

Isn't there another way?

Can't we go tomorrow? Must we go at night?

This thought went through their minds for a while, and then Zhao Yu said in a deep voice: "I will follow His Highness, you go and call the other brothers!"

Guan Yun responded and immediately went to call for help.

If His Highness wants to force himself on me tonight, it would be more effective if we call more people.

Soon, everyone gathered at the gate of the palace.

Chu Ning's mouth twitched: "Why bring so many people?"

Zhao Yu certainly didn't dare to say that he was worried that you would use force on the princess, so he could only make an excuse: "Your Highness, it's safer to bring more people with you at night."

Chu Ning rolled his eyes and said, "I am going to look for someone to do something. Bringing so many people will cause misunderstandings. You two can just follow me."

After saying this, Chu Ning got on the carriage.

Zhao Yu and Guan Yun looked at each other.

It really is work!

Forget it, if they don’t want to bring anyone, then they don’t have to. At worst, the two of them can just fight it out.

After letting the others go back home to rest, the two of them took Chu Ning to the Shen Mansion.

It was late at night and the Shen Mansion was completely quiet, with only the night watchmen patrolling the house.

Suddenly, a knock on the door startled the servants.

"Who is it, late at night?" The servant opened the door with an impatient look on his face and yawned.

Guan Yun handed over the visiting card: "The Prince of Penglai is here to visit Princess Shen!"

When the palace guard heard that it was the Prince of Penglai, a strange look appeared on his face.

This guy just got engaged to a young lady, and he came to see her so late at night. Could it be that he wanted to...

"It turns out to be His Royal Highness the Prince. Please come in. I will go and inform him right away." The palace servant did not dare to be negligent and took the initiative to welcome Chu Ning into the palace.

No matter what Chu Ning's reputation and background are, he is a prince after all, and no one dares to neglect him.

But Chu Ning waved his hand and smiled, "No need to inform, just take me to Princess Shen's courtyard."

"This..." Fu Ding hesitated.

Chu Ning narrowed his eyes and said, "I have an engagement with Princess Shen, so it is only natural for me to meet with the Princess. Do you want to stop me?"

An invisible pressure is coming!

The palace servant secretly groaned, and could only nod and agree: "Prince, please come this way!"

Led by the palace guards, Chu Ning came to the backyard of the Shen Mansion.

At this moment, Shen Wanying had already received the news. Although she was a little surprised by Chu Ning's late night visit, she immediately dressed up and went to the yard to greet him.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Prince!" Shen Wanying bowed calmly.

Chu Ning glanced at Shen Wanying, who was wearing a purple gown, and chuckled, "Why, the princess is planning to discuss something with me in the courtyard?"

He was talking about business?

Shen Wanying's heart moved, and she stepped aside to make way: "Your Highness, please come in."

Chu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly, put his hands behind his back, and walked straight into the boudoir.

The room was simply furnished. Apart from the bed and dressing table, there was also a table for practicing calligraphy and a guqin.

The life of the descendants of the previous dynasty is so simple and unpretentious.

It seems that Princess Shen doesn't care much about things!

After looking around the room, Chu Ning finally set his sights on Shen Wanying.

At this moment, Shen Wanying had already taken the teapot from the maid, and after adding a cup of tea to Chu Ning, she said calmly:

"Your Highness is visiting you late at night. I wonder why?"

Although her opinion of Chu Ning had changed, Shen Wanying was still a little wary of a man coming here late at night.

Chu Ning looked at the beautiful woman with a vigilant face and chuckled, "Don't be nervous, Prince. I came here tonight to ask for your help.

This prince is planning to build a batch of bows and crossbows, and Lord He has agreed to loan out 3,000 craftsmen, but the space required is too large, and this prince's palace is not big enough.

Some time ago, my brothers gave me many shops, but I have been busy with other things recently and have no time to take them back.

Now that the princess is engaged to me, I would like to hand this matter over to the princess. What do you think?"

The more Shen Wanying listened, the more surprised she looked.

It turns out that this guy extorted three thousand craftsmen from He Peng!

However, does he think that the bows and crossbows made by these three thousand craftsmen can change the situation on the front line?

Also, why does this guy think he will agree to it?

Shen Wanying poured herself a cup of tea and took a sip, seeming to be in deep thought or hesitant.

Chu Ning was not in a hurry. He crossed his legs and drank tea.

This nonchalant look made Shen Wanying frown slightly.

I wanted to put some pressure on this guy, but I didn't expect that he was not in a hurry at all.

Why was he so sure he would agree?

Also, since this guy comes to me to ask for help, shouldn’t I state his conditions first?

Shen Wanying shook her head and said calmly: "This is your business, Your Highness. It has nothing to do with me."

A clean and neat rejection!

Chu Ning was not surprised at all. He turned to stare at Shen Wanying and smiled: "In this case, the day of our engagement will be the day when you and I sleep together!"

After saying that, Chu Ning stood up and walked out.

This action without any hesitation made Shen Wanying's face change slightly.

So this guy was planning this!

"and many more!"

Shen Wanying stood up and chased after him, saying in a deep voice: "Your Highness, what you mean by this is that if I agree to help you with this matter, you will not sleep with me?"

Chu Ning grinned, staring at her with his eagle-like eyes, and chuckled, "I'm going to the front line at the risk of my life, I'm sure the princess doesn't want to lose her virginity to me before I leave, right?

If you agree to this, I can promise not to sleep with you unless you are willing."

A strange look flashed across Shen Wanying's wise eyes.

She is well aware of her beauty, which is irresistible to any man.

But the Chu Ning in front of him seemed uninterested in her beauty.

This made her feel a little frustrated!

I am also more curious about Chu Ning.

Chu Ning would rather help him collect the shops given by other princes than share a room with him?

If she hadn't heard Chu Ning's assurance with her own ears, she wouldn't have believed that there was a man who ignored her beauty.

Just agree to it first and see what Chu Ning is going to do!

Anyway, as far as I am concerned, this matter will not do me any harm at all.

Those shops were originally given to Chu Ning by other princes. She accepted them in the capacity of Chu Ning's fiancée, and no one dared to say anything.

"I agree to this!"

Shen Wanying stared at Chu Ning and said, "I will take back all the shops tomorrow, but you must remember your words!"

Chu Ning laughed: "Don't worry, I will keep my word and I won't lie to a woman like you!"

After saying that, Chu Ning strode away with no intention of staying.

Shen Wanying stared at Chu Ning's departing back, muttering to herself, "What on earth is he going to do? Could it be that the crossbows forged by those three thousand craftsmen can turn the tide of the battle?"
