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

Chapter 231 Falling out and being ruthless

He smashed the cup on the table and said through gritted teeth, "Xiao Lingxi is not a good woman either. What this bitch thinks about every day is that Ning Fan doesn't remember at all how good I am to her."

Before this, Xiao Lingxi had always been a taboo for Prince Ning Fan, and no one could mention it. Now the Prince actually took the initiative to have a dislike for Xiao Lingxi, which made Yan Wudao immediately overjoyed.

"Your Highness, I have told you a long time ago that there is only one woman. Xiao Lingxi cannot be the most beautiful in the world. What's more, with His Highness' talent and appearance, if you want to find a beautiful woman who is devoted to His Highness, Isn’t that just a matter of holding hands?”

Yan Wudao did not mention the identity and status of the prince, but instead began to flatter him, praising the prince for being handsome and talented. This immediately made the prince happy, and the expression on his face improved a lot.

"Wudao, is everything you said true? Can I really find a better woman than Xiao Lingxi?"

The prince's eyes showed a look of surprise, and he suddenly felt that Xiao Lingxi was not so inseparable.

"Your Highness, I have already said that Xiao Lingxi and Ning Fan have been privately engaged for life. Your Highness still has illusions about this woman. Now that His Highness has woken up, that is a great thing. As for the matter of finding the Crown Princess, it is Leave it to me, and I will definitely find a woman for His Highness whose talent and beauty completely surpass Xiao Lingxi's."

Yan Wudao had long seen that Xiao Lingxi was Prince Ning Qing's weakness. If this weakness was in Ning Fan's hands, it would sooner or later cause serious damage to the Prince.

But now the prince felt disgusted with Xiao Lingxi, which made Yan Wudao breathe a sigh of relief.

"Let's not talk about women for now. Tell me how you can destroy this newspaper. I'm annoyed when I see this newspaper."

The prince changed the subject and shifted the topic to the newspaper. This newspaper had become the number one concern in the prince's heart.

"This is too simple. As long as the prince no longer protects Xiao Lingxi, it will only take a matter of minutes for us to destroy this newspaper. Moreover, I have another way to completely drag Ning Fan into the abyss, making him irrecoverable and forever ineligible. Fight for the throne with His Highness."

As the number one counselor around the prince, Yan Wudao's main role is to advise the prince.

And his first priority now is to push the prince to the throne. Anyone who stands in the way of the prince ascending to the throne is a stumbling block and must be destroyed in time.

"Tell me what to do? I'll listen."

Prince Ning Qing poured himself a glass of water, and the expression on his face softened.

Yan Wudao had been observing the words and expressions, and when he saw that there was no change in the prince's face, he continued: "The Huns only retreated temporarily, and it is only a matter of time before they come back. By that time, what else can we in the Tang Dynasty do to stop the Huns?" Where are your steps?"

Hearing what Yan Wudao said, Ning Qingxiao could no longer hold the tea cup in his hand. His hands were shaking slightly. He looked at Yan Wudao with a pale face and said, "You mean that before this prince can ascend the throne, Dakang will be killed by the Huns." Destroyed, is that what you mean?"

"Your Highness, I dare not say this, but this is the fact. The Huns are now so strong that they are far beyond what Dakang can handle. As long as the Huns break through the northwest border again, then the entire Dakang will fall to the Huns. under control."

Yan Wudao said deliberately.

Prince Ning Qing was completely frightened and was in a daze for a long time, unable to speak.

"That's such a pity. I have been the prince for so many years and have never even had a chance to ascend to the throne. I have been too useless in this life. No way, you can think of a way to see if there is any way to continue our prosperity. I really I really want to be the emperor."

Prince Ning Qing completely lost his previous vigor, and instead looked like a weak and incompetent wretch.

In the eyes of people around him, the prince was usually a violent, crazy, cruel, and murderous person, but now Ning Qing showed such a weak look that even Yan Wudao was a little surprised.

"Your Highness is not completely helpless. There are precedents in all dynasties. As long as we, Dakang, have made peace with the Huns and relatives from generation to generation, and contributed some silk, tea, salt and other things to the Huns every year, the Huns should not attack our country. Kang.”

Yan Wudao was confident. This was a method he had thought of for a long time. The only way to reach an agreement with the Huns and maintain the situation was to make a marriage and pay annual tribute.

"You mean to ask me, Dakang, to make peace with the Huns and pay tribute to the Huns according to the year. Is that what you mean?"

There was no sign of sadness or joy on Prince Ning Qing's face. He just looked at Yan Wudao with fixed eyes, making it difficult to see the emotions in his heart.

"Your Highness, although this goes against the majesty of our heavenly kingdom, the current situation is stronger than the people, and the wealthy are poor and weak. It is indeed not the time to show off. I only say this to temporarily stabilize the Huns."

Yan Wudao was afraid that the prince would be angry with him, so he continued to bite the bullet and said: "Actually, the purpose of what I say and do is to let Dakang hide its strength and bide its time and win rare development opportunities. Once Dakang prospers again and its military strength is strengthened again, then You can fall out with the Huns at any time."

If the first half of Yan Wudao's words made the prince Ning Qing furious, then his current words directly spoke to Ning Qing's heart.

He really didn't want Dakang to fall into the hands of the Huns. No matter what, he had to do it as emperor. Even if he only did it for one day, his life would be considered a success.

"Your method is very good. Although it is a bit frustrating, it has to be done. After all, how can a person not bow his head under the roof? You have to give me a year, and I can give you a strong and prosperous life."

The prince seems to have a mysterious confidence in his own abilities. He believes that once he takes power, the entire Dakang will be completely changed, and by then Dakang will regain the majesty of the Celestial Kingdom.

By that time, the Huns would be nothing more than a reptile lying at their feet, nothing to worry about.

"Your Highness, did you agree? Are you really going to make peace with the Huns? Does Your Majesty know about this?"

Seeing that Prince Ning Qing agreed to the military affairs immediately, even Yan Wudao felt a little scary.

"I will naturally talk to my father. However, my father is now obsessed with meditating and refining elixirs every day. He has no time to take care of the affairs of the court. He rarely interferes with the affairs of the court."

Prince Ning Qing waved his hand and said to Yan Wudao: "Go and think of a way to choose a suitable princess from the royal family, and send envoys to reach an agreement with the Huns first."
