Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

Chapter 685 Thunder on the Ground

Zhang Yan was startled when he heard this and asked, "Does it mean that the king, the drunkard, doesn't care about drinking?"

Academician Zhang was pacing in the courtyard with a thoughtful expression on his face but did not speak.

Two unusual things happened in the Zhang family these days. One was that Zhang Yan, who was supposed to spend his whole life in Zhongshu Province, inexplicably took the position of Minister of Rites. The other was that Zhang Yan, who had always cherished his wings, unexpectedly Wang Xiang, who was willing to conflict with others, suddenly attacked him in the court, but the reason was just because of a trivial matter.

King Run is playful, he has long since given up teaching him, and doesn't care much about him on weekdays. Even His Majesty and Concubine Shu didn't say anything about it. As a prime minister, there is no way that he has to fight against him when he is full. .

He looked at Zhang Yan and asked, "Last time you said that Fang Hong, the Minister of Civil Affairs, was showing favor to my Zhang family?"

Zhang Yan nodded and said: "If it weren't for Fang Shangshu, no one would be able to take my turn in the position of the Ministry of Rites."

"Fang family, Prince Run, Prime Minister Wang..." Academician Zhang murmured in a low voice. Suddenly he seemed to remember something. He looked at Zhang Yan and asked, "Do you know that besides Yingying, the other two people who are following Prince Run are... A little girl, what is her identity?"

Zhang Yan thought for a while and said: "One is the granddaughter of the Wang Xiang, and the other seems to be the granddaughter of General Bai..."

"Prime Minister Wang, Prime Minister Wang's granddaughter..." Academician Zhang sat down on the table with a look of shock on his face and said in shock: "Could it be..."

Zhang Yan looked at him and said in surprise: "Dad, what is it?"

Academician Zhang thought for a long time, looked at Zhang Yan, and said: "Go and get ready to impeach Wang Xiang and his son Wang Bo in the court tomorrow..."

……

Zhao Yuan's good days are over. He spends most of his time reading and making soup, and has no time to tease the little girl.

Wang Xiang's inexplicable behavior caused quite a stir in the court. All the officials knew was that he was in a bad mood. It was best not to provoke him these days.

Tang Ning's way of looking at the problem was different from theirs. What kind of old fox was Wang Xiang? It was inexplicable how he could offend the Zhang family. Could it be that he had noticed something and took this opportunity to give them their next instructions.

Zhao Yuan's filial piety is enough, but his ability is indeed a bit lacking. If he had a little bit of ability to govern the country, in Emperor Chen's eyes, he would be a shining piece of gold, the best candidate to inherit the throne.

Of course, Wang Xiang was not in a hurry to make his words clear. If he lived to their age, he would not be in a hurry to take sides, but since he could make such a move, it was an invisible support for King Run to seize the throne...

Thinking about it, it was impossible for him not to support it. With King Run's current power, it would not be difficult to overthrow Chao Gang. However, his method of seizing the throne was too cunning and his performance was too low-key, so few people thought in that direction.

Tang Ning is almost no longer worried about Zhao Yuan, but the time left for him is only a little more than a year. During this period, the possibility of major changes in the Chen Kingdom is too low. He is afraid that if Zhao Yuan takes over, he will have to leave the capital. Many years later.

During this period, if I could do more for him, it would be worth it for him to call me sir.

Tangning walked out of the study and prepared to go to Xiao Mansion to sit down.

After Xiao Jue left, Mr. Xiao was the only one left in Xiao Mansion. Tangning would go to Xiao Mansion to sit for a while in her free time.

He walked out of the house and saw a figure stumbling over.

Tang Ning looked at Chen Zhou who looked flustered and asked in surprise: "You are so flustered, what's wrong?"

Chen Zhou looked pale, looked up at him, licked his dry lips, and said in a trembling voice after a long time: "Sir, Sir, urgent report from the north, General Xiao and his five hundred soldiers were captured alive by Wanyan's tribe on the grassland. Wanyan The Ministry summoned all the Su Shen ministries and carried out a public execution of General Xiao..."

Tang Ning looked at him blankly and asked, "General Xiao, which General Xiao?"

Chen Zhou bit his lip and said, "General Xiao Jue Xiao."

Tangning's mind went blank and she murmured, "When did it happen?"

Chen Zhou said: "At least, it was at least ten days ago..."

……

Without any warning, Tangning was stunned by the sudden news, and the sun above her head suddenly became dazzling.

At the same time, the Xiao family.

Mr. Xiao's body swayed, and the servants of the Xiao Mansion hurriedly stepped forward to help him. He waved his hand to stop Xiao Fu, looked at the eunuch in the palace, and hissed: "What did you just say, say it again..."

The eunuch said in a trembling voice: "Xiao, General Xiao and five hundred soldiers were captured by the grassland people. They carried out a public execution of General Xiao ten days ago. General Xiao, General Xiao is probably in danger..."

General Xiao sat down on the chair, closed his eyes, and said, "Everyone, get out."

The servants of the Xiao Mansion and the eunuch understood the mood of the white-haired man sending the black-haired man away. They raised their heads and slowly withdrew. General Xiao was the only one left in the room.

He opened his eyes, and two lines of tears fell from his eyes.

Lu family.

Lu Ding learned about this incident from a young general, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time. His face turned pale, he looked at the man and said, "You must not let Ya'er know about this matter..."

boom!

The screen on one side of the room fell down. Lu Ya walked out from behind the screen, looked at Lu Ding, and asked in confusion: "Dad, is this true..."

Lu Ding looked at her and sighed.

Royal study.

On the ground in front of the hall, memorials were scattered all over the floor. Emperor Chen looked gloomy and did not speak for a long time. The eunuchs in the hall held their breath and did not dare to breathe.

Wei Jian looked at Emperor Chen with a complex expression and said, "Your Majesty..."

Emperor Chen stretched out his hand to stop him from continuing, and said solemnly: "Give me the order. All enemy prisoners captured in the north, regardless of men and women, old or young, will be beheaded. Their heads will be built into a Jingguan and erected to the north of Yinshan Mountain. I will also let them beheaded." Look, they killed one of my own people from the Chen Kingdom, and one day I will kill their entire Sushen clan!"

Except for one eunuch who responded, the only sound left in the palace was Chen Huang's solemn voice.

……

It's been three days since the news came from the north, and Tang Ning didn't go out for three days.

The people in the court and the people were excited, and Emperor Chen was so angry that he even issued an order to kill all the prisoners stationed in the capital and build a palace in the capital. Ten thousand heavy cavalry and nearly one hundred thousand auxiliary troops were ready to go out within three days.

Tangning did not go to the Xiao family or the Lu family. He only knew that the day after the news reached Beijing, Lu Ya moved into the Xiao family as a widow.

The news came suddenly and caught Tang Ning off guard. It would take several days for the news to come back from the north. According to the time, the Wanyan Department's public execution of Xiao Jue had ended.

Tang Ning sat in the study, sipping tea to moisten her lips. She felt upset in her heart. Zhong Yisu Ru and Tang Yaoyao stood in the courtyard and glanced at the direction of the study. Tang Yaoyao gritted her teeth and was about to walk in. But was stopped by Zhong Yi.

She shook her head slightly and said, "Let my husband be alone."

Tang Yaoyao stopped and walked around the courtyard for half an hour, looking at the study from time to time. At a certain moment, Qing'er walked in from outside, holding a letter in her hand and said, "There is a letter from my uncle..."

"I'll send it in." Tang Yaoyao took the letter from her hand and walked in quickly.

She walked into the study, put the letter on the table, and said, "There is a letter."

Tangning raised her head and asked casually, "Who wrote it?"

Tang Yaoyao said: "There is no payment."

Tangning opened the unsigned letter and took out the letter paper. The writing on the paper was ugly and familiar.

He looked at the letter and his expression gradually changed. After reading the letter, he stood up suddenly and said with great joy: "I love you so much!"

Tang Yaoyao said in surprise: "Who do you love?"

"Love you!" Tangning hugged her, kissed her hard on the face, grabbed her hand, and said, "Go to Xiao Mansion!"
