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

After the court meeting, the golden sunshine shone in the courtyard of the Forbidden Palace.

Cheng Wei, the chief assistant of the cabinet, caught up with Ning Fan: "Your Highness, the Sixth Prince, thanks to your treatment, the dog is no longer in serious trouble! It's just the alcohol..."

"Don't worry, Mr. Ge, I still have alcohol at home. I'll send someone to deliver it to my house when I get back!"

Ning Fan quickly said politely.

Cheng Wei finally felt relieved when he heard that Ning Fan still had a lot of alcohol in his hand.

It seemed that this time, my son's life was saved.

"Your Highness, I am going to Tianjiang Province. I have a message."

"Don't trust anyone!"

Cheng Wei whispered.

After saying that, he walked forward quickly.

Ning Fan thought about Cheng Wei's words and couldn't help but secretly sigh that Jiang is still hotter when he is old.

"Your Highness, what happened this time was not considered carefully! Although Jiang Province was not a dragon's den or a tiger's den that day, not everyone could go there!"

"I know Song Chengzhou is a decisive and methodical person, but people should not be judged by their appearance. I didn't see any rebellious intentions in him back then!"

Xiao Chong came to Ning Fan's side, and the two walked outside side by side.

"Everything must be investigated, and only through investigation can one have a say! We are thousands of miles away, and looking at the situation over there can only be said to be smoke and mirrors."

Ning Fan shook his head.

"This trip is definitely very dangerous. You must be careful and pay attention to your own safety! The imperial envoy's seal given by His Majesty to His Highness has many functions, and the biggest function is to mobilize troops and horses!"

Xiao Zhong reminded.

Ning Fan knew something about this, but not in detail. Only when Xiao Zhong said this did he understand the role of the imperial envoy's seal.

"But you have to be careful when mobilizing local soldiers and horses in Tianjiang. Be careful when someone wears a pair of trousers."

Xiao Zhong warned.

In Xiao Chong's heart, Ning Fan is his future son-in-law. Regardless of public or private affairs, he does not want anything to happen to Ning Fan.

When the prince in the distance saw this scene, he was so angry that his whole body was shaking.

He didn't expect that even though he had spent so much effort to bring Xiao Chong to his side, he would actually get an advantage over Ning Fan in the end...

This time, Ning Fan made a big appearance in the court, which at least attracted the attention of the officials.

And when no one dares to go to Tianjiang Province, Ning Fan takes the initiative to ask for help. This will indeed greatly increase Ning Fan's reputation...

After returning to the mansion, Ning Fan began to prepare for going to Tianjiang Province.

The three armies have to go ahead before the food and supplies arrive. For Ning Fan, bringing enough money and food is the best luggage.

The court gave seven days of preparation time. Although seven days was a bit tight for Ning Fan, it was enough.

As long as you bring enough money for food, clothing, housing and transportation, you don’t have to worry at all.

But this business is very important. Without a carriage that is safe and comfortable enough, long-distance travel will be a kind of suffering.

The previous carriage Ning Fan gave to Tan Zhong, so after deciding to go to Tianjiang, Ning Fan immediately ordered the blacksmiths to work overtime to build a new one.

"Your Highness, the entourage is also very important! First of all, choose some people who are loyal to Your Highness, so that you can protect His Highness's safety at critical moments."

Ergou was worried when he heard that Ning Fan was going to Tianjiang. Not only was he busy, but he also considered many issues for Ning Fan that Ning Fan had not thought of.

In fact, fearing that Ning Fan would be dissatisfied with the soil, he specially installed a handful of loess in the back garden.

There are a few guards in the mansion, but according to Ning Fan's observation, their combat effectiveness is limited and may not be useful at critical moments.

Ning Fan wanted to make a few flintlock guns for fun. With those things, at least safety would be guaranteed.

But time was too short and it was already too late.

Everything for the trip was almost ready in the blink of an eye, but Ning Fan always felt that something was missing.

In terms of manpower, Ning Fan decided to take Ergou and Yueying Xingchen with him for the time being.

Xingchen was responsible for driving the carriage, while Ergou and Yueying were responsible for Ning Fan's daily life. As for the guards, Ning Fan finally decided to use the young hunters selected from Xishan Manor.

These people are Ning Fan's servants, and there is no doubt about their loyalty.

If something happens, I will definitely protect Ning Fan with my life.

Pick ten people, not too many and not too eye-catching.

When he went to Tianjiang Province, Ning Fan did not intend to contact Song Chengzhou from the beginning. He wanted to conduct a private visit incognito to find out the situation before taking action, so it was not suitable to bring too many people with him.

As the saying goes, soldiers value elites rather than numbers. Each of these hunters in Xishan Manor is very skilled and possesses unique skills.

"Your Highness, before you leave, why don't you go and pay a visit to General Xiao? Why don't you go and see Miss Ling Xi?"

When Ergou saw Ning Fan being unhappy, he guessed what his master was thinking.

"Then go over now."

Ning Fan immediately took the two dogs and went straight to Xiao's house.

After half a month, Ning Fan finally saw Xiao Lingxi again, who had been thinking about it day and night.

Wearing a lotus-colored long skirt, Xiao Lingxi's slender figure was highlighted. After not seeing her for a few days, her skin seemed to be whiter.

With Xiao Zhong here, Ning Fan couldn't say anything to Xiao Lingxi alone. He just exchanged a few words and could only make eye contact.

"Your Highness, when you go to Tianjiang Province, how to choose your bodyguards is a very important matter! If you encounter danger at a critical moment, these bodyguards must be able to help Your Highness fight the trouble."

"You can't just disperse when you encounter danger, that would be bad."

Xiao Zhong said with concern.

"According to the imperial edict, the imperial envoy can ask officials along the way to send troops to escort, but I don't plan to do this. Only by quietly entering Tianjiang in a light vehicle can I get first-hand information."

Ning Fan didn't hide it from Xiao Chong either.

"Where are the guards? How many people will you take?"

Xiao Chong asked again.

Xiao Lingxi on the side also cast a concerned look.

"Ten! They are hunters in the manor under my name. They are good at hand and trustworthy."

Ning Fan also didn't hide anything.

Xiao Chong frowned when he heard Ning Fan say that he only brought ten hunters.

"Hunting and killing are two different things! These hunters may usually dare to fight wild boars, wolves, and leopards, but if they are allowed to kill, I'm afraid they will be scared to death on the spot! Let me send a few people to follow your highness, so that things can be easily handled."

Xiao Zhong said in a deep voice.

Xiao Chong is a general, and his soldiers are all veteran soldiers who have fought many battles. They kill people without blinking an eye, and a life can be saved with a sword.

Such people often do not flinch when they encounter danger.

"No need. Although these people I lead are novices, they are loyal enough. They should be able to guarantee safety at critical moments."

Ning Fan declined Xiao Zhong's kindness, not because he couldn't trust Xiao Zhong, but because Ning Fan didn't like extraneous matters.

"Your Highness, my father has a master who can ensure his loyalty. I can rest assured if I follow you."

Xiao Lingxi, who had been silent until now, couldn't help but speak.

Those loving eyes had already expressed his feelings to Ning Fan.

"Have it?"

Ning Fan could no longer refuse.

This is his future wife-in-law who has spoken personally, so she must give her some face.

"Luo Yong, come!"

Xiao Zhong clapped his hands, and a muscular man walked in from outside the house.
