Nangong Che's heart skipped a beat, could it be that the emperor's brother told his father what happened today?

With such speculation in his mind, Nangong Che's expression was extremely calm, "Well, I have asked my son to advise my father to make a decision as soon as possible."

Hearing this, the emperor sighed deeply again.

"Che'er, your sister really likes Cheng Shubai!"

The emperor's words surprised Nangong Che, but at the same time they were expected.

only……

"Father, I feel that this is not in the interest of our country, Daning."

"Why do you say that?" The emperor raised his eyebrows.

"Have your father forgotten the request that Beirong made when they formed an alliance with us?"

When the emperor heard this, his face darkened.

"Hmph!" He snorted coldly and said angrily, "If it weren't for them going back on their word, how could we be in this situation today? Now that I think of them, I can't wait to drive them out of the border immediately."

The emperor was extremely angry.

Nangong Che was silent, and the emperor's words were exactly what he was thinking.

When the Beirong envoy formed an alliance with them, they only asked them to help Beirong capture Dongyue, but they only ignored the marriage between Beirong and Dongyue.

At that time, Dongyue had just suffered from a famine, and Beirong's envoys couldn't wait to request an alliance. This was questionable.

But at that time, because of the safety of the people at the border and the stability of the royal family, they had no choice but to agree.

But I never expected that Beirong would be so ambitious.

"Che'er, if that's the case, let her try it!" The emperor sighed, and then looked at Nangong Che, "What do you think?"

The emperor's sudden change of attitude surprised Nangong Che.

"Father, I am willing to complete this mission with my sister. We must let Bei Mo and Bei Yichen go dog to dog, so that our Ning Dynasty can breathe a sigh of relief." Nangong Che insisted.

He knew what the emperor meant. The emperor hoped to use this opportunity to let Beirong and Dongyue fight to the death, thereby achieving the purpose of consuming Beirong's strength.

But he couldn't agree to this.

The royal war has always been cruel and bloody, and he must not just watch the imperial sister step into the pit of fire.

"Che'er, you are so kind." The emperor shook his head, obviously disappointed.

He thought that Che'er also approved of this matter. After all, this could be regarded as getting rid of Bei Mo and weakening Beirong's power.

But I didn't expect that Che'er actually refused this matter.

"Che'er, my father didn't want to harm your sister." Seeing that Nangong Che didn't understand, the emperor explained.

"Father, if we let our sister marry Cheng Shubai, it will be of great benefit to us without any harm." Nangong Che still insisted on his opinion, "Moreover, I think this can force Beimo to provide troops to support Beirong as soon as possible. In this way, Beirong will also pay the price, and then our country, Daning, will have a chance to regain its lost territory."

Hearing what Nangong Che said, the emperor hesitated.

"Che'er, the Beirong army is now strong. Although our country, Daning, has three cities on the border, it is no match for them." The emperor sighed and said faintly.

"Father, I understand." Nangong Che nodded, "But now I think this is an opportunity."

"Oh? Tell me what you think." Nangong Che was so sure that the emperor became somewhat interested, so he asked.

"If the Northern Desert allies with the Western Wei Dynasty, then the situation of our Daning Kingdom will be in danger. If the two countries fight, our Daning Kingdom has a smaller chance of winning. But now there are serious internal conflicts in Beirong. If we, Daning, take the opportunity to intervene, there will be many dangers. Great odds.”

Nangong Che's words made the emperor fall into deep thought.

"Do you know the consequences of doing so?"

Nangong Che chuckled, "Since ancient times, wealth has been sought in danger."

This is what his father taught him.

If it weren't for the fact that my father had experience in leading troops and fighting, then their country, Daning, would have been destroyed long ago.

"You are right, wealth can be found in danger. But..." The emperor hesitated.

Seeing this, Nangong Che couldn't help but wonder, "Father, is there something unspeakable?"

The emperor was silent, as if he didn't want to say more.

Seeing the emperor's appearance, Nangong Che knew that he might have guessed correctly.

"Father, whatever you want to do, I will fully support you." After a pause, Nangong Che spoke with a solemn expression.

Hearing this, the emperor raised his head and looked at Nangong Che.

"Che'er, my father is old and tired." The emperor said in a low tone, "The Daning Dynasty will rely on you from now on. My father knows that you have always been sensible, but..."

At this point, the emperor paused and looked at Nangong Che who hesitated to speak.

Seeing this, Nangong Che said hurriedly: "Father, please give me your instructions. It is my duty to go through fire and water."

Seeing that Nangong Che was serious, the emperor felt relieved and said slowly, "Che'er, I want to ask you to be the future crown prince of a country."

"Father!"

Hearing that the emperor actually proposed that he should succeed to the throne, Nangong Che was startled and denied it eagerly, "I don't dare!"

The emperor waved his hand, indicating that he should not be excited, "Che'er, I know what you are worried about, but I am already old and my body is deteriorating. I can't hold on much longer. If I die, your mother, concubine, and sister will have no one to protect you. Now, you have a distinguished status and shoulder the responsibility of inheriting the heirs of our royal family. Whether you are willing or not, I will make you the crown prince. At that time, I will personally select you and get you a concubine, so as to ensure that your heirs will continue. It has insulted the reputation of our country, Daning."

The emperor's words were high-sounding, but Nangong Che knew that the emperor's words were just to appease him.

In this case, you might as well agree to it.

After all, with his current status, he does need a child.

"Father, I thank you for your cultivation." After saying these words, Nangong Che stood up and knelt down to salute.

"Che'er, get up!"

……

After leaving the emperor's chamber, Nangong Che's brows were filled with sadness.

Originally, according to the plan, he was supposed to go to Qingming Mountain to look for Fenglingqin tonight, but now this happened.

Now he has no time to worry about Fei Lingqin, and no more energy to collect tokens.

"Your Highness, what should we do now?"

Hearing the guard's questioning voice, Nangong Che curled his lips slightly, showing a hint of ridicule.

It has not yet been found out who is behind this incident, but he is sure that the person behind this must have something to do with Beirong.

But this is only speculation.

After all, Bei Mo has always been eyeing the Daning Dynasty. Perhaps he wants to control the Dongyue Kingdom through marriage and seek maximum benefits.

But this idea is ultimately unrealistic.

Because even if there is a marriage, the princess of Dongyue Kingdom will only become a tool for marriage.

"Don't worry about it for now. Let's make plans after we find out the person behind it!"

Early the next morning, the emperor summoned his ministers and announced the canonization of Nangong Che as the prince, and ordered people to build a new city.

After Nangong Che received the order, the queen and Concubine Hui hurried outside the imperial study.
