Chapter 70 Forcing King Ning to Submit

The group of people drove quickly along the official road and arrived at the foot of Nanchang City in just half a month.

Zheng Chengfeng turned his head and looked at Qianhu Zhao Hu, who was running alongside him, and said: "You and your people will be stationed outside the city and wait for further instructions from me."

"yes."

Zhao Hu nodded and arranged for a group of captains and warriors to set up camp outside the city.

Zheng Chengfeng led Gao Huan, Jiang Huhai and others to follow the king's order and go straight to Prince Ning's Mansion.

After a long time.

As soon as the group entered the city gate, they saw a group of people walking towards them. One of them was wearing a python robe and a jade belt. When the people saw this, they took the initiative to make way for them.

The two men and horses soon came together head-on. Zheng Chengfeng sat on the horse and looked at each other silently, then slowly said, "I have come to ask the prince for a question on the order of the king."

, please be a little more accommodating, Your Majesty."

The person who came was none other than Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Chenhao quickly dismounted from his horse, bowed forward, knelt down and kowtowed three times in front of the king's flag, and said: "My lord, Zhu Chenhao pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor and wishes my Emperor long live, long live, long live."

Zheng Chengfeng raised his hand to help him and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be polite. Your Majesty cares about your Majesty very much. This time, I deliberately asked a small minister to ask you: I haven't seen you for many years. Are you okay?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Chenhao quickly bowed and saluted, saying: "Thanks to your Majesty's grace, everything is fine."

After the salute, Zhu Chenhao smiled, extended his hand to invite, and said: "There are many people here and it is really not the place to talk. Please invite the imperial envoy to come into the house and talk."

Zheng Chengfeng nodded and said: "Please lead the way, Your Majesty."

After a long time.

Zhu Chenhao led Zheng Chengfeng and others to the front of Prince Ning's Mansion.

Looking at the majestic courtyard wall and the main entrance, which is more than two feet wide, even Gao Huan, who has seen some things in the world, can't help but sigh and say: "Sure enough, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away. The regulations of this Prince Ning's Mansion are serious."

It greatly exceeded my expectations.”

"There are countless oversteps. If you look around, they are all orders and regulations." Gao Huan thought.

Zheng Chengfeng seemed to turn a deaf ear to this. Along the way, he talked and laughed with Prince Ning, just like old friends he hadn't seen for a long time.

Being in Prince Ning's Mansion, Gao Huan had a general understanding of this large-scale palace. Prince Ning's Mansion covers an area of ​​about 70,000 to 80,000 square meters and is divided into two parts: the mansion and the garden. It has more than 30 various building complexes.

, exquisite layout and extraordinary style.

The platform on the top of the mountain has become the highest point in the whole garden. From the top, you can have a good view of the whole garden.

In the garden, there are towering ancient trees, numerous strange rocks, surrounded by mountains and rivers, pavilions, pavilions, and winding corridors.

The garden scenery under the moonlight is ever-changing and unique.

Jiang Huhai saw that Gao Huan had a frown on his face since he entered the palace, so he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Prince Ning, has done a great job in calming down Nan. Your Majesty should treat him differently. Ordinary vassal kings do."

It can’t be compared to that.”

Gao Huan nodded silently and thought to himself: "Prince Ning's ambition is really not small. Fortunately, he was born in the wrong era. When he raises his troops to rebel, someone will take the initiative to deal with him."

Gao Huan thought, suddenly frowned, and thought to himself: "I wonder if there is some kind of ulterior secret between Prince Ning and Tianting?"

While Gao Huan was thinking, he was already taken to the hall of Prince Ning's Mansion.

The guests were seated separately, with Prince Ning sitting in the middle, Zheng Chengfeng accompanying him at the top, Gao Huan, Jiang Huhai and others sitting at the bottom.

Zheng Chengfeng first exchanged a few words with Prince Ning casually, and then gradually brought the topic to the serious matter: "Fang Yue's death was widely implicated. The emperor was furious and ordered the ministers to investigate thoroughly and find out the murderer behind the scenes.

"

Prince Ning looked solemn, nodded, and said: "My little king has heard a little bit about this matter. The heavenly court is so bold that it will be punished. Please ask Master Zheng to convey a message to your majesty on behalf of your Majesty: I am willing to share your worries for your majesty."

Zheng Chengfeng smiled slightly, leaned forward silently, looked directly into Prince Ning's eyes, and said word for word: "I heard that the prince had close contacts with people in the Jianghu, Fang Yue was ordered to go to Jiangxi on a mission, and then died in

On the way back to Beijing, now the fingers are pointed at the prince, I wonder what the prince will explain? "

When Prince Ning heard this, he was startled, as if a thorn suddenly stuck under his body. He stood up immediately and saw Zheng Chengfeng looking at him with a smile, so he quickly adjusted his chaotic thoughts and said

: "This must be a deliberate frame-up by the Heavenly Court. Please Master Zheng investigate clearly and clear Xiao Wang's grievances."

Ning Wang said, and quickly added: "Xiao Wang has been very enthusiastic about cultivating immortality recently, so he has more contacts with people in the world. Apart from this, there are no rules and regulations.

Master Zheng, please take a closer look."

Zheng Chengfeng nodded silently, frowned and pondered for a moment, then suddenly showed a very embarrassed expression and said with a slight hesitation: "Since the prince is selfless in his heart, I should report the matter to your majesty truthfully. It's just a small matter."

I have an unkind request, but I don’t know whether to answer it or not.”

When Prince Ning heard this, he nodded almost without thinking and said, "Master Zheng, it's okay to speak. I'm willing to listen attentively."

"Since the prince is magnanimous, he might as well send a bodyguard to follow me to quell the Thunderbolt Hall. In this way, he can express his feelings to the prince, and at the same time, he can choose himself from the affairs of heaven. This is the best of both worlds. I don't know, prince."

What do you think?"

The number of guards of the Ming Dynasty kings ranged from 3,000 to 19,000, and three guards equaled 9,000 to 57,000.

Since Prince Ning's ancestor had made a great contribution to the peace, Emperor Taizong was very kind to Prince Ning. He moved him to the prosperous Nanchang and increased the number of his guards to more than 10,000.

Now Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao has three major bodyguards under his command. Each bodyguard has more than 4,000 people, which adds up to more than 12,000 people.

Zheng Chengfeng asked King Ning to send a bodyguard to accompany him to quell Perak Hall. Firstly, it was to put an end to all interactions between King Ning and people in the Jianghu. Secondly, it was to use this method to frighten the local feudal lords who were ready to make a move.

But in this way, it will be a disaster for Perak Hall. It is true that if people sit at home, disaster will come from the sky.

There is no reason for political struggle. To sacrifice a small Perak Hall for the benefit of the majority of people, in Zheng Chengfeng's view, this deal can be described as a huge profit.

Gao Huan glanced at Zheng Chengfeng secretly, then lowered his head silently, and said to himself: "He is indeed an outstanding man who has experienced five dynasties. He is decisive and resolute in his actions. He uses his killing move to directly force Prince Ning into the corner, and

There is no room for maneuver at all.”

Prince Ning silently looked at each other with Zheng Chengfeng, his eyes full of prayer. However, he saw that Zheng Chengfeng always had an expressionless face. He really didn't show any affection at all. After the two looked at each other for a long time, Ning

Wang was the first to be defeated. He smiled sadly, shook his head helplessly, and sighed: "Xiao Wang has always been used to being undisciplined. I didn't expect to be involved in right and wrong today. It's really a bad year."

"Forget it, since it is His Majesty's wish, Xiao Wang should obey his orders."

As King Ning spoke, he took off a tiger talisman for mobilizing troops from his waist, handed it to Zheng Chengfeng, and said: "Everything is at the command of Master Zheng. I just hope that after this matter is over, Master Zheng can speak kindly to the little king in front of His Majesty."

sentence."

Hearing this, Zheng Chengfeng finally showed a smile, reached out and took the tiger talisman for mobilizing troops from Prince Ning, and said: "Prince Ning is commendable for his loyalty and bravery. When I come to see His Majesty, I should tell you the truth."
