"Of course, some people will say that if the virtuous king dares not admit it, then let's start the fight. Anyway, with our strength, we will definitely win, right?"

General Li and the others, who really thought so, nodded, indicating that it was so.

"Then have you ever thought about the consequences of continuing the war? This virtuous king is different from the Nanning king. He is a hawk. When he fought with us before, he advocated fighting until the last soldier, and he would not negotiate peace with us. If he is really allowed to take over, then the battle with Nanning will really end. Everyone should know, what is the real purpose of the Holy Majesty sending us here?"

As soon as these words were said, the expressions on everyone's faces suddenly became a little more subtle.

On the bright side, Xia Guohui sent troops to attack Nanning, because the people of Nanning violated Xia's territory, and they wanted to retaliate with an eye.In fact, the main reason why the imperial court agreed to send troops was that they coveted Nanning's domestic mineral resources. To put it bluntly, they wanted to occupy Nanning's gold mines openly.

"It seems that everyone still remembers that we were able to defeat Nanning in one fell swoop before, and there was no need to accept their surrender, but the Holy One agreed. Because we don't want to waste too much time fighting with them, and the more people in Nanning die Absolutely, who will mine for us then?" Ouyang Chen said again.

The others looked at each other, and after exchanging opinions with their eyes, General Li said, "What does the coach mean, that we should support the King of Nanning?"

Ouyang Chen smiled and said, "Why not?"

Therefore, everyone unanimously agreed to send troops to rescue King Nanning.

Saving people is like putting out a fire. After deciding to send troops to save people, Ouyang Chen and others began to study who should be sent to save people.

"This time I decided to personally lead the troops to Nanning to rescue the King of Nanning." As soon as Ouyang Chen finished speaking, some people objected. The reason was that he was the commander. If there was any danger in going there, what would the army do?

"Because I am the commander-in-chief, and this battle is of great importance, I have to personally lead the troops to save the King of Nanning, so as to show the sincerity of our Xia Kingdom. Besides, I have great confidence in the abilities of my colleagues. With you by my side If so, what will happen to me?"

Facing Ouyang Chen's insistence, the generals had no choice but to agree.

After that, under the leadership of Ouyang Chen, the army only took one day to repel the Xian King and successfully rescued the King of Nanning.

Nanning Imperial Palace.

"King of Nanning, are you alright?" Ouyang Chen's body was covered with blood that could not tell whether it was him or the enemy. The sword in his hand was still dripping with blood. Under the guidance of his own soldiers, he came to the place where King Nanning was hiding. .

"It's okay." Nanning Wang thanked Ouyang Chen gratefully with a haggard face.

"Thanks to the general's help this time, otherwise, I might have been reduced to a prisoner at this moment."

"The King of Nanning is polite. The most important thing is that you are fine." Ouyang Chen paused, and glanced at the other people in the room.

The King of Nanning understood immediately, and waved his hand to make all the people at the side retreat, until he and Ouyang Chen were the only ones left in the room.

"General Ouyang came to see me in person, probably because of that matter?"

Ouyang Chen didn't beat around the bush, and said calmly, "That's right, you sent someone to ask me for help before, saying that you had clues about the whereabouts of Xia Yao's mother and son?"

It turned out that when discussing with the generals whether to send troops, the soldier who reported to him gave him a token and relayed a sentence from King Nanning.

"I have clues about the whereabouts of Xia Yao's mother and son."

And the token that King Nanning handed over to Ouyang Chen was the golden step that Emperor Jing bestowed on Xia Yao back then.It was precisely after seeing the token that he believed that the King of Nanning should have clues to Xia Yao's whereabouts, and decided to send troops to rescue him.

When he knew that Xia Guo was willing to send troops to rescue him, the King of Nanning knew that he had made the right bet, and he had already been here waiting for Ouyang Chen to come.

"Back then, when Empress Xia Yao came to Nanning with the prince, I knew about it and sent someone to take her into the palace to take care of her, but she said that was inappropriate and rejected my invitation. Although, she did not accept my invitation. Good intentions, but I can't let their mother and son have any accidents in Nanning, so I have been sending people to secretly protect their mother and son."

Hearing this, Ouyang Chen understood the reason why Xia Yao, mother and son, who had no relatives or friends in Nanning, were able to live here safely for more than a year. Therefore, on behalf of Emperor Jing, I would like to thank the King of Nanning for his care.

"Since you have been sending people to protect them secretly, you should know who the person who picked them up was?"

Nanning Wangdao: "Back then, it was the Murong family who picked them up."

Ouyang Chen had suspected for a long time that the person who picked up Xia Yao's mother and child was from his mother's family. Now hearing what Nanning Wang said confirmed his previous guess.However, on the surface he asked calmly.

"I don't know what evidence you have to prove that the people who picked them up back then were from the Murong family?"

Anticipating that he would ask this question, the King of Nanning took out the things he had prepared earlier.

"Back then, when I learned that someone was going to take them away, I sent someone to negotiate with those people and asked them to leave evidence to prove that Empress Xia Yao left with them voluntarily." Then, he handed a letter to Ouyang morning.

Ouyang Chen didn't rush to open the letter, but asked casually.

"By the way, how did the King of Nanning know that I was looking for their whereabouts?"

He only mentioned the whereabouts of Xia Yao's mother and son to Xu Ruochen and Luo Yun, and he believed that they would not betray him and let the fourth person know about it.However, the King of Nanning knew about it. How could this not surprise him?

The King of Nanning had nothing to hide and said: "Actually, I don't know, it's just a gamble."

Back then, he had completely forgotten about Xia Yao's mother and son living in Nanning temporarily, until Ouyang Chen led troops to attack Nanning.

The national power of Xia State and Nanning is very different. It is an exaggeration to say that as long as Xia State stomps hard, Nanning can be crushed.When he received the news that people from Xia Kingdom had come to his house, King Nanning didn't sleep peacefully all day.

However, what puzzled him was that Ouyang Chen actually accepted their letter of surrender. Apart from asking them to hand over the gold mine, there were no too harsh conditions.

At the beginning, he thought that Ouyang Chen did that because they came here for the gold mine. Now that they are willing to hand over the gold mine, they will not make things difficult for them anymore.But gradually, he felt that things were not that simple.

Because according to the report from the spies, Ouyang Chen didn't seem to care much about the gold mine. He had only visited the gold mine once in a long time, and that time he had caught a group of killers who wanted to assassinate him.

Moreover, he also found out about the people around Ouyang Chen, and they went everywhere to track down the whereabouts of the mother and child. Therefore, he guessed that Ouyang Chen probably had other missions to attack Nanning this time.

When he was accused by his younger brother and some ministers of betraying the country because of signing a peace treaty with Xia Guo, and they led troops to encircle and suppress him, he had nowhere to go, so he was asked to test Ouyang Chen, unexpectedly, he made the right bet.
