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

As expected, Lancheng was taken at the lowest cost, and Chu Ning planned to have a good rest in the next three days.

I haven't had a good night's sleep since I came back from Daqin. Now I can finally have a good sleep.

I slept until noon the next day.

Chu Ning woke up and was about to get up when he heard a sound coming from outside the house.

"His Highness hasn't woken up yet, you can't go in and disturb him." Zhao Yu's firm voice came.

Then came Su Tingmei's helpless voice: "General Zhao, I have something important to report. This is the news sent by His Majesty."

"no!"

Zhao Yu said sternly, "Your Highness has not had a good rest these past few days. How can you disturb him when he finally gets some rest?"

As the two were talking, the door opened and Chu Ning, neatly dressed, appeared in front of them.

"Greetings, Your Highness!" The two men bowed.

Chu Ning nodded slightly and asked, "What is it that makes Mr. Su so anxious?"

Su Tingmei smiled bitterly and said, "His Majesty sent a pigeon to ask you to return to Kyoto immediately."

These words made Chu Ning's eyes narrow and a gleam of light flashed across them.

Lan City was captured just yesterday, and his father has not received the news yet, but now he wants him to go back as soon as possible. He must have known something happened in Kyoto City.

"Does the letter say what happened?" Chu Ning was very curious why his father was in such a hurry to summon him.

Su Tingmei shook her head: "The letter did not specify it, but only urged Your Highness to return as soon as possible."

Chu Ning nodded slightly: "It seems that something big must have happened, otherwise they wouldn't be so anxious to call me back."

Just as he finished speaking, Ran Ming came over with a Jinyiwei wearing Feiyu uniform.

Ran Ming bowed and saluted: "Your Highness, the Jinyiwei wants to see you."

"Tell me, did something happen in Kyoto City?" Chu Ning looked at the Jinyiwei and asked.

The Jinyiwei bowed and saluted, saying solemnly: "Your Majesty, the Emperor of Great Qin has agreed to a marriage alliance with our dynasty. His Majesty has agreed to let you marry Princess Changping."

"Princess Changping is now on her way to Kyoto. His Majesty urges you to return to the capital as soon as possible, on the one hand to prepare for the enthronement ceremony, and on the other hand to prepare for the wedding."

"Your Majesty is very happy about this double happiness and has ordered a grand ceremony to be held."

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene became extremely quiet.

No one expected that Ying Zheng would actually send Princess Changping for marriage.

But more importantly, they bypassed Chu Ning.

What's even more troublesome is that they clearly just offended the Qin Dynasty, so why does the Qin Dynasty want to form an alliance with them now?

Chu Ning narrowed his eyes, flashing a cold light, and frowned, "Strange, if you want to form a marriage alliance, why don't you talk to me directly, but bypass me instead?"

"Mr. Su, what do you think the Emperor of Qin meant by this?"

Based on his understanding of Ying Zheng, he knew that the other party was not someone who would suffer a loss. After losing so many soldiers and horses and even the famous general Montaigne, he would definitely not give up.

This marriage may not be as simple as it seems.

Su Tingmei frowned, revealing a hint of contemplation: "Your Highness, no one can figure out the calculations of the Great Qin Emperor."

"But one thing is certain, you must return to Beijing immediately, otherwise once you miss the opportunity, you will be one step behind, and every step will be behind!"

This made Ran Ming's eyes glare: "With me here, if anyone dares to attack His Highness, I will blow his head off."

It was Ran Ming's regret that he could not follow Chu Ning to Qin State.

This time, he will not let Chu Ning fall into danger again!

Chu Ning shook his head: "Now you are also a general, you can't be reckless anymore."

"Mr. Su, gather everyone in the palace hall to discuss the matter."

"Zhao Yu, have the White Horse Cavalry prepare to set off."

"Yes!" Everyone responded and immediately went down to make arrangements.

An hour later, all the generals gathered in the main hall of the Yan Kingdom's palace.

Chu Ning stood alone in front of the dragon throne, and this time, the Thirteenth Prince Chu Kuang did not stand side by side with Chu Ning.

Because Chu Ning is about to be crowned as the crown prince, and Chu Kuang is of a lower status!

Normally Chu Ning would not care about these things, but in such an important occasion, Chu Kuang did not dare to stand with Chu Ning because of his status.

Chu Ning glanced at everyone and saw that everyone was present. He nodded slightly and said in a deep voice:

"I'm sure you all know that my father summoned me to return to the capital as soon as possible. The sudden marriage proposal by the Emperor of Great Qin is strange, and I have to go back as soon as possible to deal with it."

"I will leave this matter to you two, Lord Feng and Mr. Su. I believe that with your abilities, you two will be able to handle the Yan area properly."

The two people who were named stood up and saluted: "We will definitely live up to your trust!"

"Mr. Su, what is the situation of the people in the city?" Chu Ning asked.

Before leaving, he certainly had to understand the situation in Lan City.

Su Tingmei said seriously, "The People's Peace Notice was posted yesterday, and today I sent people to entertain the local noble families and prepare to have a good talk with them."

After all, they surrendered. We can't just kill them like Zhao did.

Chu Ning was very satisfied with this: "With Mr. Su here, I can rest assured. However, if those wealthy families are unwilling to hand over their land, there is no need to be polite to them."

"However, they have surrendered and done a great service, so we cannot kill them all. We can leave some land for them."

"But the fertile land system promoted by this king must be implemented. Anyone who opposes it will be killed without mercy!"

Su Tingming straightened his expression and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, rest assured, I will handle this matter carefully."

Chu Ning nodded slightly and turned to look at Feng Anguo: "There are not many hidden dangers in Yan State, but there will definitely be people who will take advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos. You will need to quell the banditry next."

"There is no need to be merciful to these people. Once they are found, they will be killed without mercy!"

"I understand!" Feng Anguo's face changed slightly, knowing that Yan State was about to face a bloody storm.

But he also understood Chu Ning's intention: to use severe punishments in troubled times.

Now that Yan State has been taken over by them, there will surely be people burning, killing and looting. If these people are not severely punished, more people will surely follow suit.

It will be difficult to govern by then.

Only by killing all those who show up will others not dare to act recklessly.

However, if this happens, many people will definitely die in the State of Yan.

After Chu Ning arranged all this, he said in a clear voice: "I will trouble you all from now on. When I return to the capital this time, I will definitely ask my father for credit for you all."

Everyone saluted in unison: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Chu Ning nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "Leave the affairs of this place to Lord Feng and Mr. Su. If anyone disobeys, you can kill them first and report later!"

"It's getting late. I need to return to the capital as soon as possible!"

After saying this, Chu Ning quickly walked out of the hall with everyone seeing him off.

Afterwards, Chu Kuang, Zhao Yu, Ran Ming and others followed.

Now that the affairs of the State of Yan have been completely dealt with, it is time to prepare for the revenge of the Emperor of Qin.

Chu Ning was very curious about how Ying Zheng was going to take revenge.

Princess Changping's marriage is clearly a good thing.

He just couldn't figure out where Ying Zheng's revenge was!
