Chapter 391: Ning Jie’s death and the outbreak of civil war!
Translator: 549690339
(Thank you, brother Tao 1224, for the 50000 Yuan tip.)
It was a great humiliation!
Ning Qi felt as if he was standing in the middle of a raging fire, naked.
Every inch of his body was being roasted, as if he was being completely burned from the inside out.
Although no one showed it, he could still feel the gloating in the hearts of many people present.
And their gazes were filled with ridicule.
He was probably the youngest Emperor in the world.
He had just been elected, but he was crippled in less than two hours.
It was a great humiliation!
Crown Prince Ning Yi had been embarrassed before, but now he, ning Qi, was even more embarrassed.
He would beco the laughingstock of the world.
At this ti, ning Qi was almost certain that his father must have woken up long ago. He could have co to stop the so-called King selection Congress, but he still waited for the results of the election to be out. After ning Qi had enjoyed the taste of power, he would suddenly appear and give him a hard slap in the face.
Pa pa pa pa!
Ning Qi felt like he was being slapped in the face.
Not only ning Qi, but also Prince Lian of the Empire and Queen Zhu.
Ning yuanxian’s slaps almost landed on their faces.
Hatred!
A bone-deep hatred.
No words could describe ning Qi’s feelings.
Father, you actually let suffer such humiliation? I will engrave it in my heart forever.
........................
Prince Lian looked at ning yuanxian for a long ti.
This man had knelt down and begged for rcy more than 20 years ago, but now he had beco so stubborn?
How could they resist the Empire like this?
What should he do in this situation?
The Lian Prince also felt like his head was about to explode.
He had screwed up this errand.
During the king selection Congress, ning Qi’s na was forcibly written down by the heads of the ministers, which made the image of the Empire in the hearts of the ministers of Yue State fall.
Of course, if it could be exchanged for ning Qi’s succession, this price was nothing.
But now that his ugly side had been exposed, and ning Qi had not been able to rise to the top, he would beco the laughingstock of the world.
It was really a double loss.
“Hahaha!” Prince Lian stepped forward and said,”Brother yuanxian, your stroke this ti really scared people. His Majesty is particularly concerned, so he sent here. You won’t bla for overstepping my boundaries, right?”
“Why would I?” ning yuanxian asked. I can’t even thank brother Wang enough.”
“It’s good that the Prince of Yue has woken up,” Prince Lian said,”there’s soone in the court to take charge of the situation now. The great funeral of the Empress Dowager of Yue country must be held quickly. Hurry up, the body can’t always be in the mourning hall.”
“Brother Wang is right,” the king, ning yuanxian, said.
“Officials, as you can see, although I’ve woken up, my body hasn’t fully recovered yet. It’s difficult for to move or speak. Ning Zheng, as the Crown Prince, you’ll be in charge of the country from now on. ”
“Your son will obey your orders!”
“Where’s ning gang?” ning yuanxian asked.
A mont later, ning gang appeared in the court.
Ning yuanxian’s heart ward.
The strong grass knows the strong wind. This Royal uncle ning gang didn’t let him down. At the critical mont, he even risked his life to protect Yue country.
“I’ve prepared a secret edict,” ning yuanxian said.”It’s written in front of ning gang, ning Qi, and the other honorary ministers. But the secret edict was changed, so ning gang destroyed the secret edict. Because he destroyed a fake secret edict, he did not make any mistakes and instead made a ritorious contribution.”
Ning gang kowtowed.
uncle Wang, ” ning yuanxian said. I’ll get Shen lang to prepare a set of fake teeth for you.
Four of uncle ning gang’s front teeth were smashed out.
I’m old, ” ning gang said. my face doesn’t matter anymore. It’s fine if I lose my teeth.
“No way,” ning yuanxian laughed,”it’s a slip of the tongue. I can’t speak clearly anymore, you can’t be unclear too.”
“The previous decree was a secret one, but now the next one is an open one.” My body is not in good condition, and I can die at any ti. Once that day ca, Ning Zheng would imdiately succeed the throne. He also made Bian Xiao, ning gang, ning Qi, and Jin Zhuo the four ministers of governance.”
Pri Minister Zhu hongzhu’s face trembled at this.
This was the most public face-smacking.
He was the first Pri Minister, but he couldn’t even be a Minister. What a sha.
Zhu hongzhu imdiately knelt down while trembling, ” “Your Majesty, this old subject is already old, and officially begs Your Majesty for your remains.”
Zhu Hong once again requested to resign.
“It’s accurate,” Lord Zhu Hong is indeed getting on in his years, ” ning yuanxian said directly. it’s ti for him to retire. I’ll allow him to resign from his position as the Pri Minister, but keep the position of the crown prince’s Grand Tutor.
“I thank Your Majesty for your kindness,” Zhu Hong kowtowed.
The Deputy of the Bureau of Military Affairs, Zhong ‘e, also wanted to resign, but he still suppressed it.
He could not resign at this ti.
Zhu hongzhu has retired. Uncle ning gang, you’ll be the first Pri Minister. Ning yuanxian said.
“I will do my best,” ning gang said.
“If that’s the case, there’s one less person on the Board of Ministers,” ning yuanxian said. Wang Chengqian, as the Imperial censor, you will have to take on another heavy burden and take up the fourth position on the Minister’s platform.”
The Imperial censor Wang Chengqian kowtowed and said,”this official will obey the decree. thank you for your majesty’s grace.”
“Crown Prince,” ning yuanxian said,”I don’t have much energy left, so I’ll leave the Empress Dowager’s funeral to you. But you must rember one thing, don’t be extravagant.”
“Your son will obey your orders,” Ning Zheng kowtowed.
“Let’s go back and rest.” Ning yuanxian said.
Shen lang then left the court in his wheelchair.
Ning yuanxian actually showed his intention to completely let go and hand over all the state affairs to Ning Zheng.
........................
In the study!
Concubine Bian fed ning yuanxian again.
The squab had been stewed with ginseng and chicken soup for a long ti. The squab was also very mushy and soft when mixed with the rice. It was also delicious enough.
Eldest Princess ning Jie knelt in front of her, but she still appeared very quiet.
“Why?”
Ning yuanxian asked after a long while.
“Please execute ,” eldest Princess ning Jie said.
“I’m asking you why,” ning yuanxian said.
Eldest Princess ning Jie kowtowed and said, ” “Your Majesty, please execute .”
“Can’t you tell ?” ning yuanxian asked.
Eldest Princess ning Jie raised her head. Royal brother, you should not have woken up. You should not have woken up at this ti.
“When should I wake up?” ning yuanxian asked.
“In half a year,” ning Jie replied.
“Did Ning Han tell you that?” ning yuanxian asked.
Ning Jie was silent again.
“I suddenly fell in court,” ning yuanxian said.”Who was the one who did it?”
“!” Eldest Princess ning Jie said, and then she took out sothing.
It’s the sa gem, but it’s a blue one. Is this the switch for the nightmare stone?
“Did Ning Han give this to you as well? did she ask you to do it?”
Eldest Princess ning Jie was silent once again.
she wanted to kill my father, ” ning yuanxian said coldly. why didn’t she do it herself? why did she let you do it? ”
Eldest Princess ning Jie said slowly, ” I have never thought of killing Royal brother. We only let you sleep for half a year to prevent you from bringing disaster to Yue country. However, Qianqian did not expect Shen lang to still save Royal brother. It seems like we won’t be able to stop this disaster.”
“If Ning Zheng takes the position, it’ll be a disaster. Must ning Qi ascend the throne and beco the emperor’s loyal dog? only then can we protect the State of Yue? Ning Jie, how much did you admire His Majesty Jiang Li? How co you’re kneeling down now?”
“Jiang Li is dead.” Eldest Princess ning Jie said,”not only did he die, but he also dragged countless people down the abyss.” Royal brother, there shouldn’t be any heroes in this world. Back then, because of our admiration for him, we almost caused the ning clan to be exterminated. Royal brother, do you still rember how you wagged your tail in front of Zhu Hong after Jiang Li was destroyed? I was the most passionate follower of Jiang Li, and I was secretly imprisoned for three months.”
“Brother Wang, do you know what happened in the past three months?”
“Brother Wang, do you think that I’m born with no desires? No, I’ve been castrated.”
emotions, spirit, and desire have all been castrated.
“So you’re afraid,” ning yuanxian said, his face trembling.
“Shouldn’t you be afraid?” Eldest Princess ning Jie said,”I’d rather die ten tis over than to suffer that terrible torture and the pain of sinking into hell.” There shouldn’t be any heroes in this world. The worship of heroes has destroyed us once, and we can’t be destroyed a second ti.”
Ning yuanxian looked at his sister for a long ti.
“Tell , what happened?”
Eldest Princess ning Jie shook her head and said, ” I don’t know. I only know that everything I do is for the hundred-year foundation of the ning royal family. It is for the territory of Yue country.
“Sister, you said that you never wanted to kill . I believe you!” If even you want to kill , then there is no one I can trust. You said that everything you’ve done is for the sake of the Yue country, for the hundred-year foundation of the ning royal family. I believe all of these.”
“Little sister, tell what happened. As long as you tell and gather your courage to fight against the Empire again, I can still trust you. I will still give you the black water station and trust you without any reservation.” Ning yuanxian’s voice was very emotional.
Ning Jie’s tears could no longer be held back, and they gushed out.
She also kowtowed to ning yuanxian and cried, ” “Royal brother, I beg you, depose Ning Zheng and make ning Qi the Crown Prince. This is Yue country’s last chance. I beg you.”
Ning yuanxian’s body trembled with anger, and he hissed,”Ningjie, are you so scared? Where’s your backbone? Are you really willing to kneel on the ground and let the Empire of Great Yan do whatever they want to you?”
Eldest Princess ning Jie cried,”the survival of the family is more important than anything else.” The ning royal family has been passed down for hundreds of years. It can’t be destroyed in your hands.”
“Shut up, shut up!” Ning yuanxian said in a trembling voice.”What do you think happened? Ning Jie, as long as you tell , I’ll spare your life. I’ll spare you!”
Eldest Princess ning Jie looked at ning yuanxian and held back her tears.
“Brother Wang, I really don’t know, and you don’t have to spare my life.” “I’ve never been afraid of death. In fact, I’ve long been tired of living,” eldest Princess ning Jie said.
it’s good to die like this. I don’t need to see the ning royal family go extinct, and I don’t need to see the country of Yue fall into pieces.
“Brother Wang, there are no heroes in this world, and there shouldn’t be any heroes in this world!”
“I really never wanted to kill you.”
Finished speaking!
Black blood slowly flowed out of ning Jie’s eyes, nose, and mouth.
She had committed suicide!
After a while, her straight body slowly fell to the ground.
Ning yuanxian looked at the scene as if he had been struck by lightning.
Images of ning Jie when she was young, when she was a girl, and when she was an adult appeared in her mind.
“Younger sister Yingluo”
Ning yuanxian shouted and suddenly fell to the ground, holding ning Jie’s cold body in his arms.
His heart ached like a knife was being twisted!
..................
Under a secret room.
“The darkness before dawn has arrived,” Zhu Hong said slowly.
“Dawn?”
“Are we going to start a war?” Xue Pan said,”right now, there are still more than ten thousand elites in our hands in the capital. Once the war starts, we might not lose.” Since ning yuanxian has co back to life, he can die again.”
“On the surface, Ning Zheng has more troops, but his Foundation is too shallow,” Zhong ‘e said. If we were to fight in the capital, our chances of winning would still be very high.”
“What happens after the war?” ning Qi asked. Kill Ning Zheng, kill my father, and I’ll take the throne by force, right?”
“Why can’t I?” Xue Pan said.
“Ning Qi, my granddaughter, Zhu Ning, is still willing to marry you. Will this marriage still go on?” Zhu hongzhu said.
“Of course,” ning Qi replied.
“Everyone, how about I decide what to do next?” Zhu Hong asked.
Everyone looked at Zhu Hong.
“The darkness before dawn has arrived. This is the darkest mont, but believe , dawn will co soon.”
originally, Ninghan and I wanted to preserve the last trace of vitality of Yue country. However, His Majesty the king of Yue destroyed this last hope.
if that’s the case, let’s go into hiding and wait quietly. We’ll wait for that earth-shattering boom and the mont when the world is truly falling apart.
As soon as he said this, almost everyone in the audience held their breath.
Why did Zhu Hong make it sound so frightening? Such a serious matter?
“The world’s upheaval is about to co.”
this is a real change. A change in the entire Eastern dynasty.
the upheaval this ti is like a tsunami that will sweep across the entire world.
no one, no force can resist it.
no matter if it’s Yue country, Chu country, or even the so-called Great Southern country, as long as they stand in front of this tsunami, they will be completely turned into dust.
therefore, the entire Zhu family will withdraw from the Imperial court of Yue State. Everyone will resign.
Xue che, leave the capital. Take all your people and all your forces.
Yan nanfei, take all the disciples of the South Sea Sword sect and the direct descendants of the black water platform and leave the capital. Go back to your islands in the South continent.
“Zhong ‘e, you should also resign from your position as the Deputy of the Bureau of Military Affairs and return to Tianxi province, back to the territory of your Zhong family.”
“Ning Qi, leave Yue country and head to Yan capital.”
everyone, wait quietly. Wait for that heaven-shaking sound.
“Yan nanfei, Xue che, you two have a mission.” “This is not an order from , but from the Zhu family of Yan capital,” Zhu hongzhu replied.
“Please give your orders, Minister Zhu,” Xue che and Yan nanfei replied.
“Use all our strength to take down the raging tide city and destroy the Jin family,” Zhu hongzhu said.
Yan nanfei could not help but be stunned.
To exterminate the Jin clan at this ti? To take over rage tide city?
Why?
Zhu hongzhu said: ” rember, no matter the cost, no matter how many people die, you must take down raging tide city. Then, completely seal off all the defense lines in the eastern sea of Yue State. Yin Yuan Association will fully cooperate with you.
“Yes!” Xue che replied.
..................
The next day!
Ning Zheng received countless resignations.
There were more than a hundred of them.
All the direct descendants of the Zhong family in the Imperial court had resigned.
All the officials in the Zhu family’s direct line of descent also resigned.
The Xue family and the governor of the black water tower, ku ‘e, resigned.
The entire imperial court of Yue country was almost half empty.
The Zhu family and the Zhong family, which had previously covered the sky, had all disappeared.
All of the officials in the court were at a loss.
Nothing was discussed during the court session.
In the study, Ning Zheng was sitting on the desk of the monk and several ministers of the Bureau of Military Affairs were discussing.
“Your Highness, make them stay.”
Your Highness, close the capital’s gates and leave them behind.
“Once the Zhong and Xue families return to their territories, they will definitely rebel.”
The newly promoted Vice Minister Wang Chengqian was still a big mouth.
“Your Highness, you must not let go of this once-in-a-lifeti opportunity.”
“Zhong ‘e can’t leave. Xue che can’t leave.”
“Issue a decree imdiately and label them as traitors. Then, send out the troops to exterminate them.”
“Uncle ning gang, uncle ning Qi, what do you think?” Ning Zheng, the Crown Prince, asked.
Your Highness, ” ning gang said, ” if we declare them as traitors now, a civil war will break out in the capital.
“In the capital, we have the advantage in military strength,” ning Qi said.
Your Highness, you must not be too soft-hearted, ” Wang Chengqi said. even if a civil war breaks out in the capital, even if it causes devastation everywhere, it can be resolved once and for all.
“If a civil war breaks out in the capital, it won’t solve the problem once and for all,” Ning Zheng said. A civil war was inevitable, but it could not break out in the capital. To destroy the Xue and Zhong family’s territories in one fell swoop is what it ans to do it once and for all.”
As soon as these words ca out, several big shots of the Imperial court were shocked.
Of course, it was good to destroy the Xue and Zhong family territories in one fell swoop. It could be considered as directly solving a hundred-year-old hidden danger.
But how could he do that?
Even when Yue country was at its strongest, it couldn’t do this.
The King of Chu had led an Army of 300000 to attack Zhenxi city, but they had not taken it down.
That was the Zhong family’s old nest, and it had been in operation for more than a hundred years.
And how many troops could Ning Zheng bring out now?
At most, it would not exceed 50000.
Even 300,000 soldiers couldn’t take down Zhenxi city, let alone 40000 to 50000 soldiers.
And the Xue family.
The ocean-separating King strategy had been activated a few decades earlier than the Jin family.
Currently, the Xue family’s Palace of the Earl of Wu an was empty. All of the Xue family’s power was in the South Island archipelago.
This was a super warlord disguised as the southern sea Sword sect.
Not only did the Xue clan monopolize all the trade routes in the southern sea, but they could also be considered a subsidiary force of stupa mountain.
They had an extrely powerful navy and martial arts Army.
Without a naval fleet, it would be a fool’s dream to destroy the Xue family.
The Nanzhou islands were 2000 miles away from Tiannan province. How big were these islands? how many troops were stationed there? how many castles were there?
The information was incomplete.
Because the Xue family had supported the South Sea Sword sect for more than a hundred years, the large-scale migration to the southern island islands had continued for decades.
Stupa mountain had also been supporting the southern sea Sword sect for more than a few decades.
Therefore, the Xue family’s South Island islands was definitely a super behemoth.
One could see how powerful the Xue clan and the southern sea Sword sect were from what had happened before.
After stupa mountain had seized the rights to develop the ancient ruins on Black Rock Island, the South Sea Sword sect had sent out a fleet to seal off all the waters. The fleet involved more than a hundred ships and more than ten thousand people.
How many fleets did the Jin family have?
There were no more than four thousand of them, and they had been trained for no more than two years.
Imdiately, Wang Chengqi said,”Your Highness, you can let the zhongs go, but you can’t let Xue che go.” Zhong E was not the master of the Zhong family, but Xue che was the master of the Xue family, the South Sea Sword sect, and the master of the South continent. Once he is allowed to leave the capital, it would be akin to letting a Tiger return to the mountains.”
“Minister Wang, what cri should we use to keep Xue che?” Ning Zheng asked.
Wang chengchou said,”isn’t the cri simple?” A rebellion!”
As expected of an imperial censor, he was the best at putting hats on people. Previously, he had said that Jin Zhuo was plotting a rebellion, and now he was saying that Xue che was plotting a rebellion.
“But Xue che doesn’t have any evidence of a rebellion,” Ning Zheng said.
Xue che had led his troops to kill Ning Zheng, which was equivalent to rebellion.
However, this matter could not be made public. Once it was made public, the sky-Sea Pavilion and stupa mountain would be involved.
“What evidence do we need? we’ll just arrest him after we’ve convicted him,” Wang chengchou said.
“I want to do it in a proper way,” Ning Zheng said.
Wang Chengqian was helpless.
His Highness Ning Zheng was too upright, even a little pedantic.
Of course, as a subject, he did want an upright King. Wang Chengqian was quite critical of ning yuanxian. As a King, he did not follow the way of a King, but instead walked the crooked path.
Now that Ning Zheng was acting upright, he felt that he was pedantic.
Then was it Ning Zheng who was pedantic?
Of course not!
In the current situation, there was no way Xue che could stay.
Xue che, Yan nanfei, and yan e were all Grandmaster level experts.
Of course, among the three of them, only Yan nanfei had the title of Grandmaster, but the other two were also grandmasters in reality.
That day in the palace, ning yuanxian had used the power of the king to suppress them.
If he wanted to take them down by force, he really couldn’t.
Not only were the three masters, but ning Qi and Zhong ‘e were also top masters.
Many of the Warriors of the black water tower were from the South Sea Sword sect, so Ning Zheng’s side was at a disadvantage in the martial arts forces in the capital.
He could protect himself.
This was because Ning Zheng’s side had li qianqiu and his wife, Zhong chuke, li mu, and dumb.
But it was impossible to keep Xue che.
Furthermore, Xue che had the experts from stupa mountain and Yin Yuan Association behind him.
Therefore, it was a good thing for them to withdraw completely and hand over a complete capital to Ning Zheng.
........................
The governor’s Crown Prince, Ning Zheng, approved all of the resignations.
Therefore, Zhong ‘e left the capital with all the mbers of the Zhong family.
Xue che and Yan nanfei led countless people and left the capital.
At this point, more than half of the black water platform was empty, and all the main forces had left.
Shen Lang’s Black Mirror division took the opportunity to take over the black water platform.
The great eunuch Li Shen was also the commander of the Blackwater station.
That’s right, after yan e left, the Blackwater platform was directly downgraded.
The Xue and Zhong families all left.
However, although the Zhu family had resigned, they still stayed in tianyue city and had no intention of leaving.
There was still one person who had not left.
The third Prince, ning Qi!
..................
The Empress Dowager’s funeral was solemn, but it was not extravagant.
After the funeral, Prince Lian was about to leave.
“Ning Qi, are you sure you don’t want to follow back to Yan capital?” “Now that the Xue and Zhong families have retired, you might die if you stay in the capital,” Prince Lian said.
Ning Qi shook his head. thank you for your kind intentions, Your Highness. It’s at this ti that I have to stay in the capital.
Ning Qi had thought it through.
If he went to the Yan capital, he would be reduced to a complete loser, a dejected person, or even a puppet of the Yan Empire.
If he stayed in the capital of Yue State, he might have a chance.
The Lian Prince stared at ning Qi for a long ti and said,”there are so many beauties in the world, and there are really many talents.” Ning Qi, you’re indeed the son of ning yuanxian. In the face of adversity, you’ve shown amazing wisdom.”
“Your Highness, you’re too kind,” ning Qi bowed.
“Don’t worry, the darkness before dawn won’t last long,” Prince Lian replied.
..................
Ning Qi had been the young Emperor for more than two hours, and then he was crippled.
Now that Ning Zheng had beco the Crown Prince Regent, ning Qi only had one official position, the Deputy of the Bureau of Military Affairs.
Normally, even if he stayed in the capital, he should have closed his door and not co out, but he still went to court every day, even though he did not say a word from beginning to end.
After Crown Prince Ning Zheng took over the country, the king, ning yuanxian, had completely retreated behind the scenes. He recuperated in concubine Bian’s Palace every day and completely delegated power.
Ning Zheng sent morials to him every day, but ning yuanxian did not read a single one.
He handed over all the political affairs to Ning Zheng and let him do as he pleased.
Every day, he would listen to books, bask in the sun, and do so recovery training.
The result of letting go like this was actually not bad.
The entire capital, and even the entire Yue country, was in good order.
Of course, this was not because Ning Zheng was very powerful.
It was the determination of one’s heart.
After two years of war and a month of drastic changes in the Imperial court ...
Countless citizens were in a state of anxiety.
Now that things had finally cald down, they wanted to live and work in peace, so how could they have the mood to cause trouble?
There was another point that Ning Zheng was much more diligent than ning yuanxian. He really did everything in detail.
No matter what it was, he would carry it out to the end.
No matter what difficulties they encountered, they would not want to avoid them, but to solve them completely.
Indeed, the capital where Ning Zheng was in power was less romantic than before.
But in the end, it developed peacefully.
Through a bizarre thod, the court gradually settled down.
........................
However, this peace was only temporary.
8th of November.
The Crown Prince, Ning Zheng, had officially removed Zhang zixu from his position as the governor of Tianxi province and summoned him back to the capital to serve as the assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites.
Of course, this was a promotion.
Everyone thought that Zhang zixu would run away and not take up the post.
But he had not expected that he would really return and obediently take up the position of Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites.
It was the ninth of November.
Ning Zheng removed Zhang Ji from the position of acting governor of Tianbei province and transferred him to the governor of Tianxi province.
The next day, Zhang Ji left Tianbei province and headed south at full speed.
On the 13th of November, Zhang Ji went to Tianxi province and officially beca the governor of Tianxi province.
At this mont, everyone could see it.
The Imperial court of the State of Yue was going to make a move on the Zhong family.
On the 17th day of the 11th month, Xiao Xiao, the mighty Duke, officially resigned from his position as the ssenger of the Council.
The king of Yue, ning yuanxian, agreed.
At this point, the position of head of the Bureau of Military Affairs in Yue country was vacant.
The next day, without the other party’s consent, ning yuanxian directly appointed Zhong Yao as the head of the Bureau of Military Affairs of Yue State. He also ordered Zhong Yao to imdiately enter the capital to take up his post.
At the sa ti.
The orders from the State of Yue’s Board of Ministers and the Bureau of Military Affairs had also arrived in Zhenxi city.
They requested the Zhongshi family to respond to the new governance, disband the family’s private army, and return the military power of the West Garrison Army to the Bureau of Military Affairs.
At the sa ti!
The Marquis of Xuanwu, Jin Zhuo, had officially submitted a morial and was willing to hand over 90% of his fief, leaving only the Marquis of Xuanwu’s residence and its affiliated manors.
They had been running raging tide city for more than three years. Now, the fief of the Jin family was no longer important, and most of the people had moved to Leizhou Island.
The gold Mountain Island, raging tide city, and Leizhou Island were the foundation of the Jin clan.
..................
After the edict arrived in Zhenxi city ...
Zhong Yao claid to be sick and was unwilling to go to the capital to be the head of the Bureau of Military Affairs.
The State of Yue’s Board of Ministers sent an official to Zhenxi city to request for the asurent of the feudal land of the Western Marquis’s residence.
The officials of the State of Yue’s Bureau of Military Affairs headed to the Western Garrison city and began to register the Zhong family’s private army and the Western Garrison Army.
His thods were direct and straightforward, making preparations to take back the Zhong family’s land and reduce the Zhong family’s private army.
Zhongshishi was furious and started to kill.
He killed three officials of the Bureau of Military Affairs and beat up seventeen officials of the Council of Ministers.
The Imperial court of Yue country was furious.
The king, ning yuanxian, had ordered Zhong Yao to hand over the murderer, Zhong Shishi.
They also took the initiative to hand in the soldier register and the map of their fief in response to the new governance of Yue country.
Otherwise, it would be considered a rebellion.
Zhong Yao ignored him.
The king, ning yuanxian, announced to the world that the Zhong family was plotting a rebellion.
He ordered the governor of Tianxi province, Nirvana army commander Jin Mulan, to destroy the Zhong family rebellion.
The entire Yue country was shocked once again!
So fast, so urgent?
They had just finished the war of National fate, and now they were going to fight Zhongyao again?
The common people were surprised, but the court officials were not.
This war should have broken out a few months ago, but Ning Zheng did not want to have a civil war in the capital.
Moreover, the Zhong family was one of the top aristocrats in Yue country, the biggest warlord, and could even be considered as the pillar that held up the sky.
The sudden Declaration of Rebellion had a huge impact on the people of Yue country, and they needed a certain buffer.
A civil war was bound to break out.
However, he still had to find a good reason to do so.
..................
Zhongyao’s story spread across the world.
The king, ning yuanxian, had suffered a stroke. The state affairs were now under Ning Zheng’s control, and the king had beco a puppet.
The Zhong family had been loyal ministers of Yue country for a hundred years. For the sake of Yue country and the hundred-year foundation of the ning royal family, Zhong Yao had called on all the generals in the world to help the king.
Then, the Zhong family increased their troops crazily.
The Army had suddenly increased from 60000 to 100000. No one knew where he had gotten the military provisions and military expenses.
Then, the Zhong family’s Army attacked from all directions.
In a short period of ti, they had completely occupied all the county cities in the northern part of Tianxi province.
At this point!
The Civil War of Yue country had officially erupted!
The entire northern part of Tianxi province had fallen into the hands of the Zhong clan’s Army.
Other than the ancient Orchid City.
Jin Mulan led the first and second Nirvana Army, which had more than 4000 n, to defend Gulan city!
This ancient Orchid City was only less than two hundred li away from the Western Garrison city.
Looking at the map, Gulan city was isolated and helpless, and was heavily surrounded by the Zhong family’s Army.
............
9th of December!
Zhong ‘e led 40 thousand troops to attack the Gulan city that Jin Mulan was guarding.
Jin Mulan’s old enemy, zhongshishi, also followed along.
The ancient Orchid City was a small and dilapidated city.
There were only about 4000 Jin Mulan soldiers.
There was a difference of ten tis the number of soldiers on both sides.
“Jin Mulan’s 4000 strong Army is the most elite force under the command of Yue country!”
once he’s destroyed, no force in Ning Zheng’s hands will be able to resist our Zhong family’s Army.

[ note: I’ll charge 16000 today! ] He was so exhausted that he couldn’t even howl. give the monthly votes! I’m really kowtowing to everyone!
Thank you, Keke, for the 30000 Yuan tip every day.
