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

"Father, I have nothing to say!"

Chu Ning grinned: "If the king wants his subject to die, then the subject must die!"

The emperor's expression changed slightly and his brows furrowed.

If Chu Ning refuted him a few times, it would be easier for him to deal with it.

But for being so obedient, he felt a little guilty.

But at this time, Zhao Feiyan chuckled and said, "I just asked you to kneel down and apologize. I don't want to kill you. Why do you have to make it so serious?"

The prince narrowed his eyes, a strange look flashed across his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Chu Ning, stop talking nonsense. Now you just need to kneel down to handle this matter. Why do you have to bring up life and death?"

This time, Chu Ning can't escape from my grasp!

I was saved by my father last time, and this time, I will avenge myself in front of him.

Chu Ning, I will make you humiliate yourself today!

However, facing the siege of the two, Chu Ning just glanced at them calmly and said word by word: "I haven't finished what I want to say yet, you two don't need to be so anxious."

The emperor's eyes lit up.

I knew this guy wouldn't give in so easily.

However, at this point, what reason does Chu Ning have to avoid this disaster?

The emperor looked at Chu Ning deeply and pretended to be displeased: "If you have anything to say, say it all at once!"

Chu Ning said calmly: "My son's life belongs to my father. Whatever my father tells me to do, I will naturally not dare to disobey.

But my father asked me to lead the troops to the front line, and now he wants me to kneel down to Princess Da Zhao. This is contradictory.

Once the news reaches the ears of the soldiers on the front line, morale will drop by more than half before the final decisive battle.

Today, I can kneel down and apologize, but I would like to ask Your Majesty to re-determine the selection of the front-line coach!

By the way, since you invited the princess of Great Zhao to come here, it means that you are well aware of the situation in Great Zhao. I recommend you to be the commander of the front line!"

After saying that, Chu Ning lifted his sleeves and prepared to kneel down.

The prince suddenly panicked.

According to what Chu Ning meant, as long as he kneeled down today, he would not be able to go to the front line.

By then, my father will have to choose a new commander-in-chief, and as the crown prince, he will naturally be the first person to be considered.

Combined with what Chu Ning said just now, it was clear that he was trying to divert trouble away.

No, Chu Ning cannot be made to kneel down, otherwise I will be the first one to be in trouble!

At most, Chu Ning would just kneel down and be humiliated, but there is a great possibility that I would be sent to the front line.

Startled, the prince supported Chu Ning with his right hand.

Chu Ning, who was about to kneel down, was stunned for a moment, turned to look at the prince, and asked in surprise: "Brother Prince, why are you doing this?"

The prince said sternly, "Eighteenth brother, what you just said is like thunder in my ears. If this kneeling affects the morale of the soldiers on the front line, then you must be more cautious!"

As soon as these words were spoken, an amusement appeared on the emperor's face.

This kid Chu Ning really has a way. Even the prince has to admit defeat.

Zhao Feiyan, who was standing aside, had a cold look in her eyes.

Chu Ning is indeed cunning!

By retreating in order to advance, he actually made the Crown Prince of Chu retreat.

It seems that today's matter is not as simple as I imagined.

While he was deep in thought, he heard Chu Ning asked in surprise: "Why do you say that, Prince? Didn't you insist that I kneel down and admit my fault just now?"

As he said this, he wanted to kneel down.

The prince suddenly panicked.

This guy is serious!

He quickly pulled Chu Ning's hand with force, with a wry smile on his face: "I was a little anxious just now and didn't consider the overall situation. I hope you can forgive me, Eighteenth Brother.

After listening to what my Eighteenth Brother said, I finally realized that this matter is of great importance and needs to be handled with caution."

Although he knew that Chu Ning was just pretending, he just couldn't do anything about Chu Ning.

In order not to go to the front line, I can only swallow my anger!

"is it?"

Chu Ning looked at the prince with a half-believing and half-doubting look: "Is this really what you really think, Prince, or does you not want to go to the front line?"

These words made the prince's face change slightly.

Although I didn't want to go to the front line, I dared not admit it in front of the emperor!

The crown prince twitched his lips and said, "Eighteenth brother, you are too kind. As the crown prince, how could I not want to go to the front line? It's just that I am busy with domestic affairs and I really can't spare the time. It would be best if Eighteenth brother could handle this matter."

Chu Ning raised his eyebrows and said, "In that case, should I go to the front line?"

"It's natural!"

"What about this kneeling thing?"

"This concerns the morale of the soldiers on the front line. How can I kneel down?"

The prince looked righteous and dignified, completely different from his aggressive appearance just now.

Chu Ning laughed secretly in his heart.

You are such a coward, and you still want me to kneel down?

"Since Brother Crown Prince has said so, I will be spared from trouble today."

After a pause, he turned to look at the emperor on the main seat: "What do you think, father?"

The emperor pretended to be in deep thought, stroked his beard, and nodded, saying, "What you said is not entirely unreasonable."

He glanced at Zhao Feiyan and said calmly, "Princess Zhao, your punishment undermines the dignity of the royal family of Great Chu and is also detrimental to our frontline soldiers. I will not accept it!

What's more, it was you who took the initiative to provoke me today, and then humiliated my son Chu Ning. To be honest, I haven't held you accountable yet.

You two are both at fault, how about just calling it quits?"

The tone of these words clearly showed that he was on Chu Ning's side.

Centurion Han Ping's face darkened, he felt indignant and was about to retort immediately.

But Zhao Feiyan stretched out her hand to stop him and chuckled at the emperor: "Since His Majesty the Emperor of Great Chu has said so, if I don't agree, it will seem that I don't know how to appreciate it.

This time, I came here to promote friendly relations between the two countries, not to cause trouble. I can let this matter go.

However, I hope that the Prince of Penglai can participate in the next peace talks. In addition, I heard that the Prince of Penglai is about to get engaged, and I also want to attend her engagement party, which can also be regarded as repairing the relationship between the two countries!"

The emperor raised his eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashing across his face.

The Zhao army has the upper hand on the front line, but now they want to negotiate, and they even specifically ask Chu Ning to negotiate?

Forget about the peace talks, this woman actually wants to attend Chu Ning's engagement party?

I'm afraid this is not a good intention.

However, it is difficult to refuse this peace talk. If you refuse, the other party will have a legitimate reason to launch an attack on the front line in advance.

Agreeing to peace talks now can at least buy some time for the front line.

While thinking, the prince hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Father, if this matter can be negotiated successfully, the soldiers on the front line can be spared from the hardship of war!"

The emperor nodded slightly, but still asked Chu Ning casually: "Chu Ning, what do you think about this matter?"

Chu Ning shrugged: "I dare not make a decision for my father without authorization, but I come from the common people and don't know much about peace talks. If I do something excessive, I wonder if Princess Zhao can accept it? If not..."

"Of course I accept it!"

Zhao Feiyan chuckled and interrupted Chu Ning: "Since I know your background, Your Highness, why would I care about these things?

You just need to participate in this peace talk. This princess doesn't care about other things!"

Chu Ning showed a playful look on his face: "If that's the case, I'll participate in the talks!"
