The eldest son is fierce

Jiangshan was almost furious!

The Prince of Yan of Dayan personally contacted his Jiang family secretly to make a deal, and the Jiang family is a noble family of Nanjing. Dayan and Nanjing have now gone to war... Jiangshan is very conflicted now. If he can capture the Prince of Yan and hand him over to the court, it will be a great achievement.

But the problem is that the Nanjing court is now trying to seize the Jiang family's property.

"Dad, I think we can cooperate."

Jiang Wan'er raised her head and blinked her big watery eyes: "Cooperation, but the conditions must be negotiated first."

Jiang Shan was stunned: "What? Nothing happened yet, and you're already rebelling?"

Jiang Wan'er looked at Jiang Shan with her beautiful eyes, raised her slender fingertips and tapped him: "Dad, has our Jiang family ever done anything wrong to Nan Jing in these past hundred years?"

"Uh, no." Jiang Shan's face trembled. Has Nanjing been established for a hundred years? When our Jiang family came into being, there was no Nanjing.

"Yeah! No!"

Jiang Wan'er was furious and spat, "Hasn't our Jiang family paid a lot of taxes over the years? Our Jiang family accounts for about 30% of the tax revenue for the entire Xinzhou state, right?"

"We pay taxes on time, in accordance with the amount, every year, without any delay, and we don't use the influence of our Jiang family to do anything wrong in Xinzhou, right?"

"We gave them money and grain when they asked for it, and we never stopped paying due respects. Yet, in the end, they accused us of plotting a rebellion. If it weren't for the war between Dayan and Nanjing, and if Huangfu Zong hadn't been killed by Tang Yi, our Jiang family might have been slaughtered to pieces by now!"

Jiang Shan's face was gloomy. His daughter's words were like a poke in his lungs. The Jiang family has been cautious over the years, but the court still treated them like fat pigs to be slaughtered. It was too much!

Jiang Shan stood up and paced back and forth in the study for a while. He turned his head to look at Jiang Wan'er, who was pouring tea, and said, "Jiang Wan'er, have you ever thought that if you take this step... there will be no way out for the Jiang family."

Jiang Wan'er raised her hand, overturned the teacup on the coffee table, and sneered, "Jiang Shan, you make it sound like the Jiang family still has a way out."

Jiang Shan was so angry that he kicked the chair beside him away: "Jiang Wan'er, I'm your father, who are you calling Jiang Shan?"

Jiang Wan'er curled her lips and said, "Jiangshan, you really disregard the name Grandpa gave you. It sounds so ambitious! But its owner is an indecisive idiot."

"Jiangshan, can't you see? Nanjing... is going to die."

"From now on, this place will be called Yan's!"

Jiangshan was stunned.

He knew that his daughter was very smart, and even her insights in many aspects were not inferior to those of boys. This was also what he regretted the most. If his daughter was a boy, the Jiang family would not have fallen into decline for at least dozens or hundreds of years.

But now he was still shocked by his daughter's words!

Nanjing is going to die? This is something an eighteen-year-old girl can say?

"Dad, this is not a joke, it's the truth."

Jiang Wan'er looked up at Jiang Shan, her expression finally becoming serious: "Huangfu Zong is dead. The death of a Grandmaster is a fatal blow to the morale of Nanjing."

"Originally, Nanjing still had a chance. Zhuge Wanwan was Nanjing's last chance... But, because the idiot dog emperor was afraid of the Zhuge family, he schemed to kill the entire Zhuge family."

Jiang Shan was so scared that he quickly ran to the door, pushed it open and took a look outside. After confirming that there was no one waiting outside, Jiang Wan'er angrily said, "You stupid girl, what are you talking about? How can you say such things casually?"

"Also, how did you know this?!"

Jiang Wan'er sneered and said, "What's there to hide? As for how you knew that? How else do you know that? You can figure it out by simple process of elimination."

"If I know this, how could Zhuge Wanwan, the commander-in-chief of the three armies, not know it?"

"So, it's impossible for Zhuge Wanwan to work for Nanjing..."

Jiang Shan swallowed subconsciously when he heard his daughter say this, and said, "This...this can't be right? The Grand Marshal is the commander-in-chief of the three armies of Nanjing. He shouldn't be a traitor, right?"

Jiang Wan'er glanced at her father and said, "Our family is considered a prominent family, right? If the emperor killed our entire Jiang family on a trumped-up charge of treason and only spared you, would you still applaud the emperor and say it was a good killing, a brilliant one?"

"Pooh, pooh, pooh... just shut up!" Jiangshan's face turned dark instantly. Is this how you give an example?

"But then again, if the emperor kills the entire Jiang family, there's nothing to say. I'll fight to the end with all my strength in this life..." Jiang Shan added.

Jiang Wan'er stood up and clapped her hands, saying, "That's right. So the battle between Zhuge Wanwan and Tang Yi won't start. The most likely scenario is that Zhuge Wanwan will take over hundreds of thousands of troops to negotiate with Tang Yi, or will join Tang Yi in the fight."

"Of course, the second possibility is unlikely. The Zhuge family still has a young son alive..."

"So, the first possibility is the most likely."

Jiang Shan was baffled. He turned around and said, "We're talking about the King of Yan now. According to the time calculation, the King of Yan is about to enter the city. Can't you say something I can understand?"

Jiang Wan'er raised her hand and patted her forehead, saying, "So all I've said is for nothing, right? Why did the King of Yan ask us to cooperate? To borrow a boat!"

"Why borrow a boat? I guess it's to get to Kyoto."

"What does the new army's entry into Kyoto mean? It means Tang Yi is trying to cut off the source of the fire and attack from the center. He wants to destroy Nanjing in the shortest possible time... In other words, he is very likely using himself as bait to attract attention and buy time for the new army to enter the capital."

"Oh my god, when I think about it... Oh my god, Nanjing is really dead this time."

Jiang Wan'er raised her hand and pointed at Jiang Shan, saying, "Dad, this is our chance. Don't miss it. I want to go to Kyoto with you too..."

Jiang Wan'er's eyes sparkled as she said, "I heard that in Da Yan Kyoto, Tang Yi likes to climb up girls' walls, and girls also like to climb up his walls... It sounds quite interesting."

Jiang Shan instantly jumped up and said, "How dare you! I can break your legs."

Jiang Wan'er bit her finger gently and said, "Dad, I'm the one making the decision on this matter. We'll cooperate with King Yan. It's decided!"

After saying that, Jiang Wan'er turned and walked out. Jiang Shan looked at her back and was furious: "Jiang Wan'er, don't mess with me."

……

Outside Qianyang City, in the Nanping army camp.

Zhuge Wanwan, who had just returned from patrolling the camp, had just returned to the general's tent when the deputy general came to greet him: "General, His Majesty has sent another decree urging you to lead the army to meet the enemy quickly, otherwise..."

Zhuge Wanwan sneered and stared at the deputy general, "Ask your emperor if he still wants these hundreds of thousands of troops."

"The Northern Army suffered a crushing defeat, and the border troops of Dayan and the Southern Guard Army are advancing unstoppably. Now we are going to attack with our troops who have no morale at all, and try to annihilate Tang Yi's entire army again?"

The deputy commander was sent by the young emperor to supervise Zhuge Wanwan. He was about to speak up to persuade her, but Zhuge Wanwan's cold voice rang out: "Get out!"

The deputy general could only retreat in disappointment.

Zhuge Wanwan opened the curtain and entered the general's tent. Just as he was about to unfasten the sword from his waist, he saw a neatly written note on the table:

It’s going to snow tonight. Can I have a drink with you?
