The war between Chu and Yan finally came to an end after two years.

When Yan Wuji learned about this, he realized that he had no way out.

The only way to save Yan State is to make Chu State and Qin State go to war.

Once the war started, Chu would not have the troops to capture the capital of Yan.

During this period, the State of Yan could recuperate, recruit soldiers and regroup.

Therefore, Chu Ning must die!

Only if Chu Ning dies in the Qin Dynasty can the reckless man Ran Ming lead his troops to attack the Qin State.

This time, he joined forces with Cao Zhang and Wu Santong. The combined forces of the three parties were three times that of Chu Ning.

This time, Chu Ning has no way to escape.

The three of them reached an agreement and went downstairs to make arrangements immediately.

An hour later, Ying Zheng in Xianyang Palace received the news.

Inside the palace, Gan Long bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, Yan Wuji, Cao Zhang and Wu Santong sent someone to bring news. They think the marriage proposal has fallen through and there is no point in staying here. They want to set off and return to the court immediately."

Ying Zheng looked like this, flipping through the memorial in his hand and saying calmly: "Since they want to go back, let them go."

"Bai Zong has been executed, and there won't be any major problems in the city. Send the order to the guards at the four gates to open them."

Gan Long responded but did not leave. Instead, he stood there, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Ying Zheng noticed Gan Long's reaction and couldn't help but put down the memorial in his hand, looked up, and asked calmly:

"Prime Minister, is there anything else?"

Gan Long said sternly: "Your Majesty, now that 30,000 Chu troops are stationed at the border, should our dynasty have a plan to deal with it?"

"response?"

Ying Zheng smiled faintly: "Why should I respond? We have troops on the front line. It is not easy for 30,000 Chu troops to invade our dynasty."

"Besides, the world is unpredictable and changes rapidly. Many things will change."

After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's getting late, go down and pass the message first."

"Yes!"

Although he didn't know what the emperor was thinking, Gan Long still believed in him unconditionally.

Ying Zheng was looking at Gan Long's departing back, with a hint of amusement appearing at the corner of his mouth.

The fun has just begun.

Bai Zong’s death was just the fuse.

The battle situation on the front line is the prelude to this drama.

Yan Wuji, Cao Zhang, Wu Santong, please don't let me down.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng once again revealed a weird smile.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the hall.

"Get out of my way! If you dare to stop me again, I will kill you!"

"Your Highness, you cannot go in without His Majesty's order!"

"How dare you stop this princess!"

Immediately, the sound of weapons clashing was heard outside the hall.

Then, a guard came to report: "Your Majesty, the princess broke into the palace and is fighting with the guards."

Ying Zheng was not surprised and said calmly: "Let her in."

"Yes!" The imperial guards breathed a sigh of relief and quickly retreated.

Soon, Princess Changping came into the palace with an angry face.

"Father, why don't you agree to my marriage with Chu Ning?" Princess Changping looked as if she was going to accuse someone.

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes, and a hint of coldness flashed across his face: "Is this the attitude you should have when talking to me?"

"Your Majesty!"

Princess Changping was shocked.

From childhood to adulthood, she had never seen her father so strict.

Suddenly, a feeling of grievance filled my chest.

But she was strong-willed and suppressed the grievance in her heart, and suddenly knelt down on her knees.

"My son has met my father!"

Ying Zheng didn't let her get up either, and asked indifferently, "What's the matter?"

Princess Changping clenched her hands and said coldly: "Why do you refuse the marriage? You obviously agreed to it a long time ago, why do you regret it at the critical moment?"

What happened at the gate of the palace has spread throughout Yangcheng.

Princess Changping was extremely anxious when she heard the news and immediately went to the palace to demand accountability.

Ying Zheng's face suddenly turned gloomy.

For the sake of Chu Ning, his daughter actually dared to come to the hall with weapons to disobey him!

Although it is said that girls should not be kept at home when they grow up, he could not accept her turning to outsiders, whether as an emperor or as a father.

"Humph!"

"Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Ying Zheng's eyes turned cold, and he stared at Princess Changping with his eyes like torches: "Do I need to ask for your opinion before I make a decision?"

Princess Changping's face changed, knowing that her father was angry.

But for her future, she had to explain: "Father, it was you who set the rule. Whoever finds the murderer of the twelfth prince will be the one you marry!"

"Now that Chu Ning has found out that the murderer is Bai Zong, he has also taken the initiative to make a request. Why do you refuse?"

"If our dynasty forms an alliance with the State of Chu, wouldn't it be better than forming an alliance with another dynasty?"

At this moment, Princess Changping expressed her feelings.

You will get married sooner or later, no matter who you marry, you might as well marry Chu Ning.

At least, she doesn't hate Chu Ning.

She didn't like any of the others.

At least she still has some friendship towards Chu Ning.

Since I'm going to get married, I might as well marry Chu Ning.

But she never expected that her father would actually refuse.

This made all her plans go awry!

Because he knew that if she couldn't marry Chu Ning, she would have to marry someone else.

So, she must find a way to marry Chu Ning!

Ying Zheng looked at Princess Changping who was kneeling on the ground and snorted coldly: "Do you think I don't know what you are thinking?"

"Humph, but you know that the Chu State has already stationed troops on our border. If we form an alliance with the Chu State at this moment, outsiders will think that our dynasty is afraid of the Chu State."

"Don't worry, since you don't want to get married now, I won't force you to get married, so leave now!"

This simple explanation left Princess Changping stunned.

It turned out that in her father's heart, she was just a political victim.

She had always thought that she had made great contributions in the army and could influence her marriage, but now it seemed that she could only be a pawn.

For the sake of the Qin Dynasty, her father would do anything.

Thinking of this, Princess Changping slowly stood up and gave Ying Zheng a fierce look: "Father, you will regret it if you don't let me marry Chu Ning!"

"regret?"

Ying Zheng said calmly: "I have never known how to write these two words in my life, and do you really think this matter is over?"

Princess Changping was shocked: "What does your father mean by this?"

Ying Zheng shook his head: "You don't have to worry about the affairs of the country. Go back. You don't need to pay attention to what happens next."

"Even I don't need to intervene!"

Princess Changping's face changed slightly. What her father said meant that what was going to happen next was beyond her understanding.

While thinking, Ying Zheng shouted outside: "Come here, send Princess Changping back to the palace. If she is allowed to come out again this time, I will kill her without mercy!"

At the command, the imperial guards immediately came into the palace.

"Princess, please!"

Although Princess Changping was reluctant, she had no choice but to turn around and leave.

But I was a little worried about Chu Ning.
