Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

"Marriage, marriage..."

Tang Ning was so shocked that her chopsticks dropped to the ground. Only then did he remember that there was still one unresolved matter between him and Tang Shui.

The two families made a marriage contract back then. Now that Tang Shui's parents are no longer alive, isn't the marriage contract irrevocable?

Tang Shui's face was also red, and she wanted to defend herself, but she also knew that with her status, she had no say in this matter, just like Tang Ning had no say.

Tang Yaoyao stopped picking up the food and glanced at Tang Ning with an extremely resentful look, but did not speak.

"Ahem..." Tangning coughed a few times and said, "Let's eat first. Let's talk about this matter later. Let's talk about it later..."

He didn't say that arranged marriages were undesirable or that he advocated free love. In this era, people valued credibility more than their lives. If he showed his intention to regret the marriage, wouldn't he make his parents a treacherous person? ?

What's more, they were betraying their savior, and Tang Ning could not say this under any circumstances.

Tang Yu looked at Tang Ning and Tang Shui, then looked at Tang Ding and said, "Forget it, the children have grown up, let's not worry about their affairs..."

Tang Ding stopped continuing the topic, looked at Tang Ning, and said, "I will let Mr. Xu help you take over everything about Xiaowan. From now on, you can make your own decisions about anything about Xiaowan, Dayue Wusun, you Conquer Chen if you want, and fight Chen Guo if you want, we don’t care..."

He looked at Tang Yu with a particularly soft look, as if he didn't care about anything except her.

After finishing the meal in a strange atmosphere, Tang Shui put down his chopsticks and walked out of the hall quickly, feeling a bit like he was running away.

Tangning chased her out of the palace, and she said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, but you don't need to take what they just said to heart."

Tang Shui looked at him with a blush on her face. For a long time in the past, she had regarded Tang Ning as her younger brother who had a rough life. She cared deeply about him and was willing to take any risks and do anything for him.

But ever since she found out about the engagement, she could no longer look at Tang Ning the same way as before.

Although they have not officially gotten married, it is just a process. With the marriage certificate, she is actually his wife.

Similarly, even if Tang Ning had no offensive thoughts towards Tang Shui, his feelings towards her had quietly changed because of what happened.

A trace of annoyance appeared on Tang Shui's face, and he murmured: "What should I do about this matter..."

Although her parents' orders, the matchmaker's words, and the marriage contract were proof, she could not really marry him...

Even though they are not related by blood.

Neither marrying nor not marrying. Tangning had never encountered such a difficult problem before. She sighed and said, "Let's take one step at a time and see what happens..."

Although she had never thought about it, when she saw the expression on Tangning's face, as if he had suffered a great loss, she couldn't help but feel a little angry in her heart, and asked, "Why, do you think fulfilling the engagement will make you Is it difficult..."

Tang Ning looked at her in astonishment. After thinking about it carefully, she felt that there was something wrong with his expression just now, which could easily misunderstand Tang Shui. It was because he felt that she was not worthy of him, so she hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean that... …”

"Then you are willing to fulfill the engagement?" Tang Shui glanced at him and reminded: "Don't forget, I am your cousin!"

From what she said, it was neither fulfilling the engagement nor regretting the engagement. What on earth did a conflicted woman want him to do?

Tangning lowered her head and muttered in a low voice: "It's not a kiss anyway..."

"What did you say?" Tang Ning forgot that Tang Shui's seemingly gentle appearance actually contained the soul of a witch. As soon as he finished speaking, his ear was held by a delicate hand.

Tangning looked at her innocently and asked, "Then what do you want me to do?"

"I..." Tang Shui's tone faltered, he let go of his hand holding Tang Ning's ear, and said angrily: "How do I know what to do? They really insist on making an engagement out of nowhere..."

Tang Shui left angrily. When Tang Ning turned around, she saw Tang Yaoyao standing behind him.

There was a hint of resentment in her eyes, and she didn't say anything, just looking at him directly.

Tangning looked at her and said aggrievedly, "I really don't blame me this time..."

Fairy Tang became jealous, and Tang Ning really couldn't resist it. It took her an entire night to coax her. The next morning, when they got up, they were shocked by another piece of news that left them speechless.

Just two hours ago, my parents had left Xiaowan with hundreds of elite guards and headed to the south of the Yangtze River in the Chen Kingdom.

He seemed to be eager to hand over Xiaowan to Tang Ning and became the hands-off shopkeeper himself, without even giving Tang Ning a chance to regret it.

Tangning was stunned for a long time before finally accepting the fact that he was about to take over this mess.

Mr. Xu stood outside the palace, bowed to Tang Ning and said, "Your Majesty, please come over. The ministers have been waiting for a long time."

Mr. Xu is the prime minister of Xiaowan. Tang Ning has already experienced his talents in the capital. In the future, he will help Tang Ning to take over and control everything in Xiaowan.

Things went more smoothly than Tangning imagined. Xiaowan's court was established based on the model of Chen Guo. At his request, everything was kept simple, with only a simple enthronement ceremony, and he became the new controller of Xiaowan.

However, the situation in Xiaowan today is not so good.

Dayue and Wusun joined forces to contain most of their troops.

In addition, Chen State in the east is also watching with eager eyes. Tang Ning believes that with Chen Huang's character, after knowing that Xiaowan has been attacked from both sides, he will not let go of such an opportunity, and may have already assembled an army at the border.

Therefore, the most important thing at the moment is to disintegrate the alliance between Dayue and Wusun and unify the Western Region. Once the Western Region becomes a piece of iron, even Chen State will not dare to invade it wantonly.

The Western Region has now formed a three-legged power of Xiaowan, Dayue, and Wusun. The forces of the three countries are restraining each other, and no one can do anything to the other.

Once there is a problem with either Dayue or Wusun, the other side will face a strong attack from Xiaowan, which will cause their army to stand still. Including Xiaowan, the three countries are very empty.

If spies are sent to infiltrate Dayue and Wusun, coupled with the strength of the allies in the Western Region, they can be conquered without much effort by working together internally and externally.

Of course, now that he had Xiaowan's strength, he no longer had to rely on the Western Region allies. Tang Ning wrote a letter back, asking them to hold their troops temporarily. With the few troops from the allies, even if they faced Wusun and Dayue who did not have a large army, , and it won’t be easy to win.

This can only be regarded as a side battlefield at best. The frontal battlefield where the armies of the three countries clash is the key to victory or defeat.

Lao Zheng was idle, so Tang Ning asked him to go to the front lines to satisfy his general addiction. He sent several elders out of Dayue City and Wusun City.

Although they left Tang Ning in a mess here, after they left, no one would press him to marry Tang Shui again. You made Tang Ning feel relieved.

However, just one day later, Tang Shui left without any notice. He only left a letter, telling Tang Ning that he was going to Jiangnan to find Tang Jing and his wife, so that he didn't have to worry...

Tangning held her handwritten letter in her hand, and could understand her mood when she wrote this letter, and she was filled with emotions.

Like Tang Shui, after the marriage letter appeared, Tang Ning didn't know how to face her. The best way was to give the two of them enough time and space to think carefully about how to deal with them in the future. human relationships.

Tang Yaoyao stood beside him, sighed softly, and said, "I can feel that my cousin also likes you."

"Stop making trouble..." Tangning shook her head and said, "How is this possible?"

"This is our women's intuition." Tang Yaoyao looked at him and said, "Not just cousin, I think the way Princess Anyang looks at you is wrong too..."
