Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

Chapter 159 Pavilion in the Heart of the Lake

"Yongning Lane?"

Ergou smacked these words and looked confused at first, but soon became shocked.

"Your Highness is going to visit the Chief Assistant?"

Ergou was shocked.

Ning Fan nodded and said: "Don't talk nonsense, go quickly."

Leaving Kyoto can no longer be postponed. Firstly, there are long nights and many dreams. Secondly, Ning Fan is worried that after the matter in the northwest is settled and the prince comes to his senses, he may not be able to leave if he wants to!

Winter is approaching, and Ning Fan must plan for the future!

In Ning Fan's plan, the chief assistant Cheng Wei is a key figure, and Shuntian Prefecture Yin Li Wende is also crucial.

The chief minister of the cabinet did not take sides in the fight for the throne, and was only loyal to Emperor Tian'an. But in fact, this was definitely a force that should not be underestimated.

The other is Shuntian Fuyin, who controls all aspects of Kyoto. It is very useful at critical moments!

It is easy to leave this Kyoto, but difficult to come back. Ning Fan must make arrangements in advance.

Otherwise, I will come in a prison car next time!

Snowflakes were falling outside, and Ning Fan was walking on the street holding an umbrella.

A carriage came over and stopped in front of Ning Fan.

The driver wore a hat that covered half of his face, but Ning Fan recognized him as Cheng Dong at a glance.

"boarding!"

Cheng Dong whispered.

Ning Fan didn't show any pretense, opened the curtain and got directly into the carriage.

He thought that the Cheng family had sent a carriage to pick him up, but after entering the carriage, Ning Fan discovered that there was a person sitting inside.

With a slim figure and snow-white skin, she is none other than Cheng Yueying, the daughter of the first assistant, Cheng Wei!

"Why so surprised?"

Cheng Yueying pursed her lips and smiled at Ning Fan.

Ning Fan took a closer look and saw a familiar style of jewelry on Cheng Yueying's finger and neck.

It was exactly the same style as the one he had customized for Xiao Lingxi, which made Ning Fan suspicious.

"My father is waiting for you at the Huxin Pavilion in front."

Cheng Yueying felt a little uncomfortable when Ning Fan looked at her and said shyly.

Ning Fan really didn't expect that this hot little loli would also be shy one day, and couldn't help but feel amused.

"Your Highness, I heard that you are going to Jiangzhou, right?"

Cheng Yueying saw that Ning Fan was smiling but not saying anything, so she took the initiative to break the awkwardness.

"Yes, my fiefdoms are Jiangzhou and Yunzhou. I'm afraid I will never be able to return to Kyoto in the future!"

Ning Fan sighed deliberately.

When Cheng Yueying heard this, her big eyes turned red.

"Why are people different? I hate separation."

Cheng Yueying turned away, but tears fell down her snow-white face.

Ning Fan didn't expect that this unruly little loli would also shed tears one day. His heart suddenly melted and he unconsciously reached out to wipe the tears from Cheng Yueying's cheeks.

"When I first didn't meet His Highness, I only heard that His Highness was the most ridiculous prince. But later I heard that His Highness turned back as a prodigal son and wrote some amazingly talented poems, so I wanted to meet him!"

"Later, Your Highness cured my brother, and I just wanted to thank you in person..."

Cheng Yueying murmured in a low voice, her eyes full of melancholy.

"There is no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever. I hope you will be taller next time I see you."

Ning Fan smiled.

Cheng Yueying wrinkled her nose slightly: "Do you like me or Xiao Lingxi? Why are the gifts you gave us both exactly the same?"

Cheng Yueying finally plucked up the courage and looked directly at Ning Fan: "I haven't told my father about this yet! I want you to explain it to me!"

Ning Fan opened his mouth, wanting to say that this thing was really not a gift from him, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them out.

"Sending a gift doesn't mean anything, right?"

Ning Fan excused himself.

Cheng Yueying, however, refused to give up: "I asked you to choose between you. Do you choose me or Xiao Lingxi?"

This question was too sharp, and Ning Fan didn't know how to answer it for a while.

Seeing Ning Fan being silent, Cheng Yueying snorted coldly: "Forget it, you should watch out for yourself! My father said you are in danger!"

"Yeah! You can come to Jiangzhou to play in the future. I'll cover food and accommodation, no money required."

Ning Fan said seriously.

Cheng Yueying was quite serious at first, but when she heard Ning Fan's words, she couldn't help but laugh: "We're almost there, I won't tell you anymore, I'm leaving, and I can't let my dad know that I'm riding in the same car with you. !That old man is very fierce!”

The carriage stopped, Cheng Yueying jumped out of the car and got into another carriage that had been waiting by the roadside.

"Your Highness, take care!"

Cheng Yueying shouted sadly.

Ning Fan didn't answer, just looked at the lights in the distance silently.

In the pavilion in the center of the lake, Cheng Wei was fishing under the moon wearing a raincoat. This scene made Ning Fan stunned.

It was quiet all around, except for the lights in the distance, which seemed like they were in another world.

"If His Highness doesn't come to see me, I plan to make an appointment with His Highness."

Cheng Wei stood up and shook off his raincoat.

"Old Master Cheng Ge had a clever plan, did you think that I would come to visit?"

Ning Fan also smiled.

Cheng Wei shook his head and said: "Your Highness is a man with great ambitions! But going to Jiangzhou here is a bad move!"

Ning Fan was not in a hurry to refute after hearing this, but said calmly: "In Mr. Ge's opinion, should I continue to stay in Kyoto?"

"No!"

Cheng Wei shook his head.

Ning Fan was confused, what did this mean?

If you don’t go to Jiangzhou and don’t stay in Kyoto, do you want to go to heaven?

Seeing Ning Fan's confused look, Cheng Wei smiled and said, "In my humble opinion, the most important thing for Your Highness to do right now is to go to the northwest!"

"Northwest? There might have been a chance before, but now there is no chance."

Ning Fan shook his head.

Before, Ning Fan did have the idea of ​​​​leading troops in the northwest, but when the news of Chen Ping's death came, Ning Fan knew that he had no chance.

Neither the prince nor Emperor Tian'an would let him be with Xiao Chong.

"Why?"

Cheng Wei frowned.

"Chen Ping is dead! The person who will replace Chen Ping is the Marquis of Zhenyuan!"

Ning Fan said calmly: "Who in the court doesn't know about my relationship with Lord Zhenyuan? Can Father trust me to go to the northwest?"

"Chen Ping is dead?"

Cheng Wei's eyes twitched a few times, his expression unspeakably shocked.

But he soon let out a breath of white air: "The prince is narrow-minded and eager for success. If he really wants to rule the world in the future, I am afraid that my great fortune will decline."

Ning Fan completely agreed with Cheng Wei's view. In Ning Fan's opinion, the prince was a mentally disturbed guy.

If such a person becomes emperor, the whole world may be in chaos.

"In the future? Think about it first, Mr. Ge, how to get through the difficulties now! Once the Huns get involved with the Jurchens, our great fortune will be in danger with one against two!"

Ning Fan sneered.

Cheng Wei was shocked again: "Why did your Highness say this? The Jurchen hostage is still in Kyoto, how dare they do anything wrong?"

"It's just one son! It is said that the Jurchen Emperor had seven sons, so what does it mean to sacrifice one?"

Ning Fan shook his head.

Cheng Wei was really shocked and couldn't say a word for a long time.

In the end, I could only sigh slightly: "Looking at His Majesty's complexion, I'm afraid he's declining day by day! If he can last for three years, he's already a blessing! If Your Highness doesn't want to become a fish on the chopping block in the future, you should make plans early!"

This was what Ning Fan was waiting for. Hearing this, he said seriously: "Mr. Ge, are you willing to help me?"

"I am only loyal to Da Kang and the people!"

Cheng Wei shook his head.
