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

Prince Chu's Mansion, living room.

Ran Ming, who had changed into a new set of clothes, was full of excitement and said with a silly smile: "Your Highness, why did you give me the golden silk soft armor as well?"

Chu Ning said calmly, "I gave you the armor because I need you to do something. This is a dangerous matter. To ensure your safety, I gave you my personal armor."

But Ran Ming waved his hand quickly and said, "No, this is your life-saving item, how can I take your things?

Besides, if I go to Yunzhou, there will be no one to protect you, and you will need this armor even more."

Although he couldn't let go of this precious armor, Ran Ming also knew that Chu Ning was much more dangerous than he was now.

Although the situation in the city is now under the control of Bingzhou troops, the city defense camp and the imperial guards are still in the hands of the emperor.

If the emperor suddenly attacks, even if Chu Ning can resist, he will suffer losses.

But Ran Ming has to go to Yunzhou at this time and cannot be by Chu Ning's side to protect him. How can he not worry about Chu Ning's safety?

Chu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a hint of amusement: "Do you really think that I will agree to my father's request so easily?"

"To tell you the truth, after the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince were killed, I secretly dispatched Zhao Yu back."

"According to the time, he should be here soon."

General Zhao Yu has been stationed in Liangzhou to train cavalry, and has achieved fruitful results in the past two years.

However, considering the current situation in Kyoto City, transferring Zhao Yu back is the best option.

After all, Liangzhou is adjacent to the Zhou Dynasty. Now the two dynasties are on good terms and there is no war in Liangzhou. It is not good to let Zhao Yu stay there all the time. It is better to transfer him back.

In fact, he originally wanted to transfer Zhao Yu to Yunzhou, but Yunzhou has high mountains and long roads, which is not suitable for cavalry combat, and sending Zhao Yu there would be disadvantageous.

Therefore, taking advantage of the incident of killing Concubine De, he deliberately sent Ran Ming to Yunzhou and transferred Zhao Yu back to Kyoto City.

If the emperor really wants to take a risk, it would be better to have Zhao Yu in Kyoto.

After all, Zhao Yu is a man of meticulous mind, and he takes many things into consideration. If things really come to a head, he can not only help with martial arts, but he can also coordinate other things.

"So, Your Highness, you transferred Zhao Yu back!"

Ran Ming was overjoyed when he heard this: "I was worried that no one would protect Your Highness after I left. Now that General Zhao Yu is back, I can go to Yunzhou without any worries."

"But what is the order you just mentioned?"

After talking for a long time, he still didn't know why Chu Ning asked him to go to Yunzhou.

Chu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly, then said calmly:

"This king wants you to go over and cooperate with Mr. Su Tingmei's plan to kill Le Yi!"

"This man's command ability is too strong. Even Feng Anguo is no match for him, which has led to a stalemate in the battle of Yunzhou."

"Only by killing this man can we completely eliminate the Yan army, so your target this time is this man."

When he heard that he was asked to kill someone, Ran Ming smiled and patted his chest to promise:

"Your Highness, please rest assured. I am not good at others, but I am the best at killing people!"

The corner of Chu Ning's mouth twitched, revealing a helpless look.

This guy just loves fighting and killing!

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the hall, and two figures arrived at the same time.

The man was dressed in black and was thin. It was Jia Yu.

A man wearing silver-white armor, with a dignified appearance and tall stature, who else could it be but Zhao Yu.

"Greetings, Your Highness!" The two men bowed to Chu Ning.

Chu Ning laughed and looked Zhao Yu up and down: "General Zhao, you have worked hard. From today on, the safety of this king will be left to you."

Zhao Yu said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, please rest assured. Lord Jia has already told me about the matter. I will definitely live up to your trust."

After saying this, he bowed to Ran Ming as a greeting.

Ran Ming chuckled and said, "General Zhao, His Highness's safety is in your hands. I will rush to Yunzhou now."

After saying that, he bowed to Chu Ning and said, "Your Highness, I'm leaving now!"

Chu Ning nodded slightly: "Remember, you must follow Mr. Su's arrangements."

"Yes!" Ran Ming responded and immediately turned and left.

Ran Ming was so excited at the thought of going to the battlefield to kill the enemy that he even quickened his pace.

Looking at Ran Ming's departing back, Chu Ning couldn't help but shook his head: "This guy has wanted to go to the battlefield for a while. If it weren't for me suppressing him, he might have secretly run to the battlefield.

Fortunately, he has learned a lot from me and Lord Jia during this period of time, and he will not be as impulsive as before when he goes to the battlefield this time."

He watched Ran Ming grow up, so of course he cares about Ran Ming more.

Jia Yu laughed out loud when he heard this: "Your Highness, Prince Chu, please rest assured. General Ran Ming has become much more stable after this period of time."

Even Zhao Yu couldn't help but laugh at this moment: "If it was before, General Ran Ming would not say these words to me. It seems that Your Highness has helped General Ran Ming a lot during this period of time."

These words reminded Chu Ning of Ran Ming holding a book and learning to read. A hint of amusement appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Okay, let's not talk about him anymore."

Chu Ning shook his head: "Ran Ming has gone over to handle the matter in Yunzhou, so I believe there will be a result soon. The most urgent task now is the situation in the city.

This time, I killed Concubine De and destroyed the Wang family. Although my father did not say it, he must be holding a grudge in his heart.

You two, what do you think the emperor will do next?"

He knew the emperor's character very well and would never let his family dominate the country.

They may even try to seize power from him, so he must be prepared in advance.

Zhao Yu was not very clear about the situation in the city, so he naturally would not speak casually, and he also understood that Chu Ning was asking about Jia Yu.

Sure enough, Jia Yu narrowed his eyes and chuckled, "Next, the Crown Prince, the Fourth Prince, Concubine De and others should be buried. After this, the next thing will be the fight for the Crown Prince!

Your Highness is now too powerful and has control over the situation in Kyoto City. You have the greatest advantage in choosing a crown prince at this moment.

But because of this, His Majesty will definitely find ways to weaken your power, or even support other princes.

What we need to do is to decide the position of Crown Prince before your Majesty's plan succeeds. This way, no one else will have a chance!"

The meaning is simple: it is better to strike first than to strike first.

As long as he can take the throne of the crown prince before the emperor supports other people and weakens the power of the Chu Palace, no matter what the emperor does, it will be in vain.

As soon as these words came out, Chu Ning's eyes lit up and he said, "That makes sense. I can't give anyone else any chance!"

After he finished speaking, Chu Ning stood up suddenly and said loudly: "Contact everyone immediately and ask them to prepare memorials. Once the Crown Prince, the Fourth Prince, and Consort De are buried, all of them should report to the Emperor and decide on the Crown Prince's position!"

"Yes!" Jia Yu responded and went downstairs to make arrangements immediately.

"Zhao Yu, you must be tired from the journey. Go down and rest first. I will call you if there is anything."

"Yes!" Zhao Yu bowed and left.

Chu Ning was the only one left in the hall.

He looked towards the direction of the palace and muttered to himself, "Father, what are you going to do next?"

He has already started the fight for the crown prince position.

But the emperor obviously wouldn't let him have his way!

The two sides are about to stage another big drama!
