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

"Are you done talking?"

As soon as Chu Ning returned to the backyard house, Shen Wanying put down the brush in her hand and asked with a chuckle.

Chu Ning, who felt guilty, pretended to be calm: "The Crown Princess came here just to get information for the Crown Prince. I don't have a good face for her, so I just sent her away with a few words."

But Shen Wanying, who knew Chu Ning's temper and personality well, didn't believe it at all. A rare look of amusement appeared on her gentle face.

"Really? Didn't you have a good chat with the Crown Princess? After all, you had a good chat before. You are old acquaintances."

These words are just short of having the word jealousy written all over your face.

Chu Ning's body was already hot, and his eyes lit up when he heard this. Without saying a word, he pounced on him.

At this point, explanation is unnecessary.

Action is the best proof.

If a woman is jealous, it means she has you in her heart.

If you try to explain it now, you would be a fool. Only practical actions can completely conquer her!

Before Shen Wanying could react, she felt a black screen in front of her eyes. When she came to her senses, her body had been laid down on the bed by Chu Ning.

Feeling the hot breath coming from Chu Ning, he was about to speak, but his mouth was blocked before he could open.

Then, a hot body came up.

Immediately, Chu Ning extinguished the candle in the room by flicking his sleeves, and soon, a pleasant sound was heard from the room.

At this time, Ling Feiyan also returned to the East Palace.

East Palace, Main Hall.

The two rows of candles were shaking constantly in the cold wind. The fragrance from the incense burner in the hall drifted with the cold wind, and the whole hall was filled with fragrance.

Inside the palace, the prince paced back and forth, his dragon robe rustling in the cold wind.

Ever since Ling Feiyan left the Eastern Palace, the prince has been feeling uneasy.

On the one hand, he wanted to get news about Chu Ning, but on the other hand, he didn't want anything to happen between his Crown Princess and Chu Ning.

This mentality of "you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child" made the prince's face more and more ugly.

Especially as time went on, the prince became more and more annoyed.

I just went to get some information, does it take so long?

Why haven't you come back yet?

What on earth are you doing with Chu Ning in Prince Chu's Mansion!

The prince became more and more anxious. The footsteps in the hall became louder and louder, and the candles around him flickered more and more violently as his footsteps quickened.

Just when the prince's patience was about to run out, footsteps were finally heard outside the palace.

The prince's eyes lit up and he quickly turned around, just in time to see Ling Feiyan walking in.

Ling Feiyan had returned to her usual demeanor at this moment. She walked into the palace with a cold expression on her face and said calmly, "Meet the Crown Prince."

The prince hurriedly stepped forward and tried to grab Ling Feiyan's hands, but Ling Feiyan took a step back and took the initiative to avoid him.

The prince, who had asked for trouble, looked unhappy and snorted, "Did you get the information I wanted?"

Ling Feiyan still looked indifferent: "He said he had no intention of competing for the throne, and he also said that he would report to his father tomorrow and demote himself to Bingzhou."

"Oh? You demoted yourself to Bingzhou?"

The prince narrowed his eyes, and a strange look flashed across his eyes: "At this time, he actually wants to leave Kyoto City, humph, wishful thinking!"

Regardless of whether Chu Ning has the intention to seize the throne or not, he cannot leave Kyoto.

In Kyoto City, at least we can keep track of Chu Ning's movements at any time.

If Chu Ning went to Bingzhou, it would be difficult to know what Chu Ning did.

Thinking of going to Bingzhou at this time is just a dream!

The prince sneered in his heart, but then he seemed to think of something and his face darkened.

"You've been gone for so long, and he only told you this much?" the prince asked coldly.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Ling Feiyan knew what he was thinking.

A hint of sarcasm appeared on his originally cold face: "Why, Prince, do you think I can still say anything to the King of Chu?"

The prince's face twitched, he stared at her intently, and asked in a cold voice: "It won't take so long to say a few words!"

Ling Feiyan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and her mockery became stronger: "Can't I talk to the King of Chu about something else?"

Talk about something else?

What is there for a single man and a single woman to talk about?

How long has it been since you and I had a good talk?

The prince's jealousy instantly reached its peak. He gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "What else did you talk about?"

But Ling Feiyan's eyes suddenly turned cold: "I am tired. If there is nothing else, I will go back to rest."

After saying that, Ling Feiyan turned around and was about to leave.

The prince's face changed drastically. He rushed to her with a few quick steps, opened his arms to stop her, and asked coldly: "What did you say?"

"Prince wants to know?"

Ling Feiyan sneered: "Why not ask the King of Chu yourself?"

After saying this, she walked around the prince and left.

The prince looked at Ling Feiyan's departing back, his face turning pale and blue.

Although he really wanted to know what happened between the two and what they talked about, he asked Ling Feiyan to find Chu Ning. Ling Feiyan didn't want to say anything. Did he really dare to ask Chu Ning?

"Just wait for me!" The prince could only say this indignantly before turning away with his sleeves.

If the Crown Princess doesn't like you, then you can ask the concubine to sleep with you.

As for Chu Ning, let’s wait and see tomorrow whether he will really ask to demote himself!

The night passed quickly with the two men either happy or unhappy.

The next day.

After the morning court session, the emperor returned to Yingwu Hall.

At the entrance of the palace, Chu Ning, who had been waiting there for a long time, bowed and saluted: "Greetings, Father!"

The emperor looked at Chu Ning with some surprise and asked, "How come my son has time to come to see me today?"

Chu Ning said solemnly, "Father, Master Yuan Tian's words have made me feel extremely terrified. In order to prevent the Crown Prince and other princes and ministers from thinking that I am trying to seize the throne, I request to be demoted and sent back to Bingzhou!"

When these words came out, the emperor was stunned.

Demote yourself to Bingzhou at this time?

You kid, are you trying to kill yourself?

In Kyoto City, others dare not attack you easily. Once you leave Kyoto City, even I cannot guarantee your safety.

Although Bingzhou is your territory, it depends on whether you can reach Bingzhou safely.

However, these words cannot be said to Chu Ning, otherwise God knows what this kid will do.

In short, demoting myself to Bingzhou is something I absolutely cannot agree to.

Thinking of this, the emperor's eyes turned and he said coldly: "Chu Ning, the news from other dynasties has not come yet, do you want to escape now?"

"This..." Chu Ning's eyes rolled and he was about to find an excuse to answer.

Unexpectedly, the emperor took the lead and sneered, "Don't think I don't know, it was you who secretly instructed Princess Changping to kill Baili Xing, you must deal with the situation that follows!

Kyoto City, don't even think about leaving. You should think about how to deal with the other dynasties that will come next.

Do you really think you have done it perfectly? Can you guarantee that Princess Changping will not tell the Emperor of Dayan that you ordered her to kill Baili Xing?"

Chu Ning fell silent.

No one can guarantee this kind of thing.

Seeing that he was silent, the emperor said calmly, "Okay, go back. I'm sure there will be news in the next few days.

Remember, if other dynasties send troops to attack our dynasty, I will have no choice but to send you to fight them."

Forget it, I'm going to be the scapegoat again.
