The carefree sixth prince, my father respectfully invites me to ascend the throne.
Chapter 155: No One Can Help Himself
Just as Princess Beihai stepped into her residence, the maid's voice came.
Upon hearing that Liu Zheng had arrived, Princess Beihai frowned slightly. Why would Liu Zheng come at this time?
This is a critical moment. Yang Ling is leading the Liangzhou army and is eyeing them covetously. Liu Zheng's arrival at this time is somewhat unacceptable to her.
"Just send someone to get rid of him. We haven't even fallen out with the Ninth Prince yet, how could we possibly have anything to do with Liu Zheng?"
Princess Beihai was in a state of turmoil. The Ninth Prince Yang Ling had rebelled, and the Liang Dynasty had sent so many troops to suppress him, but to no avail.
Now, Liu Zheng, a foreigner, wants to interfere, which is obviously wishful thinking.
But little did the Princess of Beihai know that the Ninth Prince's rebellion had entered its most critical moment, and she had no other choice.
"Your Highness, what are you saying? Liu Zheng cannot be neglected. Have you forgotten what the Prince instructed you yesterday?"
At that moment, the butler's voice came again.
Princess Beihai then remembered her father and could only sigh helplessly.
Then she turned and walked down the steps toward her residence.
She was suddenly stunned as soon as she entered the mansion.
Liu Zheng was actually with a woman, and this woman looked familiar. He had seen her before. It was none other than Li Qing, the young lady of the Li family who had been injured by Liu Zheng.
"Your Highness, Liu Zheng has come to pay a visit!"
Upon seeing Princess Beihai, Liu Zheng immediately stood up and then spoke directly.
At this moment, Li Qing had already walked up to Princess Beihai and respectfully bowed to her, saying, "Qing'er greets Your Highness!"
"Liu Zheng, what brings you here? This prince is very busy. If there's nothing else, please leave!"
Seeing Liu Zheng and Li Qing arrive together, she understood what was going on.
However, she didn't say anything, just quietly looked at Liu Zheng, wanting to hear what this guy had to say.
Liu Zheng, however, was not annoyed by Princess Beihai's words. He knew she was in a bad mood, so he said, "Your Highness, I know you are very busy right now, but this is a great opportunity that Your Highness should not miss."
"What do you mean by this? Do you think the affairs of my Great Liang Kingdom are something for a foreigner like you to meddle in?"
Princess Beihai was extremely irritated at this moment, and she disliked Liu Zheng's words very much.
When did it become your place to meddle in the affairs of the Great Liang Kingdom? What qualifications do you have?
"Your Highness, we have no way out now!"
Seeing the expression on the Princess of Beihai's face, Liu Zheng immediately said, "As you know, Yang Ling has now raised an army in rebellion. If we cannot quell the rebellion in the shortest possible time, he will become a major threat to us!"
Upon hearing Liu Zheng's words, Princess Beihai's heart stirred slightly. What Liu Zheng said was true, but she also understood that it was simply impossible to quell the rebellion in such a short time.
Although the army of the Great Liang Kingdom was not weak, they had not undergone much training and were no match for Yang Ling, who had been rebelling for many years.
At this moment, Liu Zheng spoke again: "Your Highness, if we cannot break through the city in a short time, we will be in a passive situation!"
"Your Highness, Qing'er has now pledged allegiance to me. As long as she can enter the city, it will fall without a fight."
Upon hearing Liu Zheng's words, Li Qing smiled slightly, but she also felt a little worried.
Although she still had some affection for the Ninth Prince, it didn't mean anything, since the Ninth Prince was, after all, a rebel.
If she can help the Princess of Beihai quell the rebellion, she will naturally gain the Princess's favor, and the Li family will also benefit.
"Alright, I can agree to this, but Liu Zheng, you must remember that I'm helping you because of Qing'er, not because of you!"
Although Princess Beihai was very anxious, she did not lose her composure.
Liu Zheng is, after all, a prince of the Great Han Kingdom, and I am now standing with him. What will the court of the Great Liang Kingdom think? If this is not handled properly, the consequences will be very serious.
"Your Highness, rest assured, this matter was handled by Qing'er and has nothing to do with me. Moreover, I have no desire to get involved in the internal strife of your Great Liang Kingdom!"
Upon hearing Princess Beihai's words, Liu Zheng immediately spoke up.
At this moment, Li Qing also spoke up, "Your Highness, Qing'er is willing to serve you like a dog or a horse!"
When Princess Beihai heard the two of them say this, her expression softened a bit, and she said, "Alright, I'll leave this matter to you, but I have one condition."
Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng and Li Qing showed expressions of surprise and delight.
They hadn't expected that the Princess of Beihai would want to negotiate with them, but that was fine too, as long as they could achieve their goal, it didn't matter.
"Your Highness, please speak!"
"I want 70% of the credit this time!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng immediately understood that the Princess of Beihai intended to reap the benefits without lifting a finger, and that she had no intention of contributing anything.
"Your Highness, I cannot agree to this!"
Although Liu Zheng really wanted to get the credit, he would never do a losing business.
Moreover, Li Qing wouldn't agree to that.
At that very moment, Li Qing also spoke up.
"Your Highness, if you do not agree, then we will take our leave!"
After saying that, she pulled Liu Zheng and walked outside.
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Princess Beihai was seething with hatred, but there was nothing she could do. She knew that everything depended on Liu Zheng, so she could only watch helplessly as he left.
However, Liu Zheng secretly sneered in his heart, thinking that the Princess of Beihai really believed she could survive Yang Ling's clutches.
Meanwhile, Yang Ling showed no fear whatsoever, which was quite unexpected.
"Your Highness, General Zhang has sent a secret letter. The court is negotiating peace. What should we do next?"
Yang Ling was resting in the military camp when An Yu walked in from outside, her gaze somewhat deep.
Upon seeing this, Yang Ling frowned slightly.
"All of you step back. I want to speak with you alone!"
At this moment, Yang Ling could not guarantee that his soldiers would not leak the news.
When only the two of them were left in the room, An Yu finally spoke.
"Your Highness, His Majesty's secret letter suggests a change in circumstances. You must prepare early. This battle may be unpredictable. If we cannot conquer the Great Liang Kingdom, then..."
Upon hearing An Yu's voice, Yang Ling clenched her fists, feeling somewhat hesitant.
