After I captured the wrong male lead, I broke off the engagement and married the villain

The subordinate looked at her overly beautiful face and thought about her tough attitude at the negotiation table, and couldn't help but sigh.

No matter when, people like Nangong Yuan always make others feel ashamed of themselves.

Too powerful, too threatening, too... dangerous.

"Okay, send a message to the border first and ask Lin Yun to be on standby at any time."

The man nodded and said, "Yes."

The border troops quickly assembled under Nangong Yuan's instructions.

Therefore, the previously relaxed atmosphere suddenly became tense.

There was an exercise at the Anshan training ground, which made Tu Yuecheng tremble with fear. He couldn't help but send a message to His Majesty who was far away in Kyoto and Ding Ran in the outer court.

"Now... the group of people in Anshan Parade Ground are eyeing us covetously. If a fight really breaks out, Tuyue City will probably suffer. I hope Your Majesty can make a decision soon."

His Majesty Xisha was very helpless about this.

"Didn't the prince go to negotiate? Why did he provoke Dajing to act like this? Could it be that he didn't negotiate properly?"

The ministers of Ding Ran's faction quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, this kind of negotiation is not a joke. What's more, Jingguo's request is outrageous. The prince disagrees for the sake of the people of Xisha."

"For the people? I think it will harm the people. If we really anger them, do you think they will attack Tuyue City? We will suffer heavy losses at that time. Can we lose less than through negotiation?"

Upon seeing this, His Majesty's confidants quickly stood up to refute, but neither side could convince the other and the argument became intense.

But no matter what, the matter still needs to be resolved.

So the Emperor of Xisha sent troops to reinforce Tuyue City and ordered it to be defended to the death.

But at the same time he also began to evacuate the people just in case.

After leaving court, he felt a little tired and went for a walk in the imperial garden.

"Your Majesty, now that Ding Ran is far away from home, there are many things we can do."

The Xisha Emperor nodded and asked: "How are you doing with what I asked you to do?"

"It's ready and will be over soon."

"That's good. We put in a lot of effort to get Ding Ran to leave this time. Otherwise, with his meticulous personality, how could he leave so easily?"

The war was fierce at that time, and Xisha was in a weak position. In addition, the main general was Ding Ran's son, so everyone used this as an excuse when they besieged him.

This forced Ding Ran to go out for negotiations.

Besides... things have come to this point, it all depends on who is quick and ruthless enough.

"Yeah, I have to say, Dajing was quite helpful."

No matter how serious the external enemies are, in the eyes of some people, they are far less important than internal strife and interests.

As long as the war doesn't reach their doorstep, they will continue to live in peace and luxury.

If the enemy didn't kill you, why not enjoy yourself?

In the eyes of the Emperor of the Paracel Islands, now is indeed a good opportunity.

If Tu Yue City was lost, he could take this opportunity to blame Ding Ran, ask him to step back, and take back those powers.

As for the lives and deaths of the people living in the border areas, they are just tools of struggle in the eyes of these people and can be abandoned at any time.

When the time comes to win people's hearts, stand up and say that you are doing it for the people.

In any case, these are just tricks played by those in high positions.

"Oh, yes, Ding Ran never thought that one day he would be dragged to this point."

"Now that our plan has been successful, Your Majesty, should we take action when he returns?"

The Xisha Emperor thought for a moment and said, "It depends on the situation. In any case, we should be cautious."

He proclaimed himself emperor at a young age, and Ding Ran was the regent prince at that time.

It’s a pity that those who have controlled the government for many years will not be willing to give up the power in their hands easily.

So... Ding Ran was the same, wanting to make the emperor a puppet in name only.

The country was in a state of doubt and the ruler was young, so he certainly took over many affairs in the Paracel Islands with good reason.

Now military affairs are included in it.

After the Xisha Emperor grew up, he has been striving to regain military power.

The struggle between the two began.

There is no other heir to Xisha now. Your Majesty is young, but has no children yet.

So... this is a struggle between the two of them, and also a struggle between two factions.

"By the way, are the negotiations over there not going well?"

"Not only that, Your Majesty, but I heard that Nangong Yuan from Dajing is a female general. She is very aggressive and said that she would attack Tuyue City if we don't agree. Even Ding Ran's face was trampled underfoot. This is simply very satisfying."

Although they are from an enemy country, the two sides have been fighting for so many years and have had so many conflicts that they feel happy when they see the other side suffer a defeat.

“I see. Nangong Yuan... is Nangong Jingrong’s daughter?”

The man nodded: "That's right, he inherited his martial arts and legacy, and was also made an earl."

"It's amazing. A woman can do this and make Ding Ran so upset. It's amazing."

After hearing this, the man became a little worried: "Alas, it's a pity that such talents are not from our Xisha Islands, otherwise...will they be beaten without the ability to fight back?"

"It's easy to get thousands of soldiers, but it's hard to find a general, let alone a general who is so brave and wise."

The Xisha commanders have gradually declined over the years, and there are few who are worth looking at.

Dalume was just someone Ding Ran introduced to control military power. His real ability can be seen at a glance.

He was beaten so badly by Nangong Yuan and fell into his trap several times. It seems that he doesn't have the demeanor of a general.

"That's right, but with her constant pressure, I'm sure Ding Ran will soon be unable to withstand the pressure and surrender. When the other party opens his mouth, we can use this opportunity to get rid of Ding Ran."

The more Dajing wants, the more advantage they have.

Although there will be a loss of interests in the short term, it will be beneficial to the stability of the Paracel Islands in the long run.

When a country has two masters, many bad things will soon happen.

"Well, get ready, and when he comes back, we'll do it."

The Emperor of Xisha is only twenty years old this year and looks very young.

But... He ascended the throne at the age of ten and has been a puppet for so many years, so of course he is unwilling to accept this.

What's more, Ding Ran is such a cunning person. If he wants to deal with him, he must be extremely careful.

"Okay, go and prepare first. Put Tuyue City under martial law in case of external enemies."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Ding Ran had no idea about these things happening in the Paracel Islands. He was so immersed in the humiliation of the moment that he couldn't extricate himself.

Although he admired Nangong Yuan very much, he still felt a burning pain on his face when faced with such humiliation.

"Heh, it looks like they're going to force me to bow my head."

"Your Majesty, if we agree, the country will definitely use this as an excuse to force you to hand over military power."

Ding Ran sneered: "Yes, our Majesty is still waiting for me to make a mistake, what should I do?"
