The prince is very cruel

"Sir!"

"What's wrong?" Guan Ning raised his eyebrows.

"I have been squatting outside the Censorate all night. This morning, Master Chen Tu came out to tell me that the emperor hosted a welcoming party for Zhao Tai last night. During the entire banquet, the emperor didn't even mention the matter of the Zhao Qing brothers. They only talked about border affairs. It seems that there is no news at all." Yu Dilong said.

"What?" Guan Ning was surprised.

"You didn't even ask?"

Yu Dilong shook his head: "According to Chen Tu, there shouldn't be any."

"Just this morning, the Zhao family wore mourning clothes and invited many monks to pray for the souls of his two sons. There was no other movement."

"Zhao Tai is still attending the morning court, but the emperor allowed him to rest for a while and not attend court. How strange."

Guan Ning frowned and narrowed his eyes.

Could it be that the disappearance of Li Mi's body was just a coincidence, or was it because I was too nervous?

He just thought of this.

"Report!!"

"Prince, Prince!" Shengqi rushed over again. Obviously, he was more anxious than Yu Dilong, which made Guan Ning have a bad premonition.

"Prince, this is bad!"

"Early this morning, His Majesty suddenly issued an order to marry Princess Nanyin to the fourth-rank Weiyuan General, Du Peng!"

Guan Ning's first reaction when he heard this was still surprise. Betrothal?

"Wait, who are you betrothed to?"

Sheng Qi said: "Princess Nanyin!"

boom!

This was like a thunder that completely exploded the entire morning.

Guan Ning was stunned and uneasy. What was going on? Princess Nanyin had been engaged to Zhao Huan, who had only been dead for a few months. By doing this, wasn't the emperor slapping Zhao Tai in the face?

"Who is this Du Peng?"

"Your Highness, this man is the most outstanding young general in the Guangdong and Guangxi regions. He also has another identity: he is Zhao Tai's adopted son!"

Guan Ning was shocked again, Zhao Tai’s adopted son?

"Is this what Zhao Tai meant?"

Sheng Qi frowned: "Prince, this, I still don't know."

Guan Ning's face was gloomy and he rushed out without saying a word, wanting to find out the whole story.

Shengqi and Yu Dilong followed closely behind, but just as they reached the gate of Guan Mansion, suddenly, a group of uninvited guests arrived.

Click, click, click!

Dozens of guards rushed over with clanging footsteps and cold iron armor, and stopped at the gate of the Guan Mansion in an orderly manner.

In an instant, everyone in Yipintang tensed up!

"Who are you?" Guan Ning frowned, recognizing that their armor did not belong to the capital.

The guards were proud and no one answered.

"Prince Guan!" Suddenly, a lazy and playful voice sounded. The soldiers separated and saw a young general riding a tall horse coming. He was less than thirty years old.

He was dressed in black, had an ugly appearance, a square face and a big nose, and his eyes were full of pride and sinisterness.

"Who are you?" Guan Ning narrowed his eyes and stood with his hands behind his back.

"I am the fourth-rank Weiyuan General, Du Peng."

"It's you!" Guan Ning narrowed his eyes. This guy looked like he was not a good person. It would be strange if Pei Nanyin agreed to this marriage.

"Hehehe, it seems that Prince Guan knows me. He must have heard about this general's happy event, right?" Du Peng looked down at him with a smile.

Guan Ning knew that the other party had ill intentions. After all, there were rumors flying around between him and Pei Nanyin. In order to save him, Pei Nanyin had announced to the public that the two had been in the same room for a whole night.

"happy event?"

"General, don't you know the relationship between Nanyin and me?" He instinctively wanted to protect Pei Nanyin, and mentioned this matter to make Du Peng give up.

As expected, when Du Peng heard this, his expression changed in an instant, becoming gloomy, cruel, and jealous.

He suddenly dismounted and headed straight for Guan Ning.

Everyone in Yipintang was startled and prepared to fight back!

They dare to act recklessly in broad daylight, and Yipintang dares to fight back!

Guan Ning stood with his hands behind his back, motionless as a mountain, and looked into Du Peng's eyes. The air was filled with tension, and it seemed that blood might spill out at any moment!

Even though Du Peng killed countless people at the border, he did not fall into any disadvantage.

In this way, the suffocating scene remained deadlocked for several breaths.

Du Peng suddenly swept away his embarrassment and smiled coldly: "Whatever you say, His Majesty has already issued an order that Pei Nanyin and I will be married in ten days. I'm just playing with that bitch anyway!"
