Chapter 418 Target: Nan'an
If the other party is frightened, monitoring may not be effective immediately.
Fu Chenan calmed down and began to interrogate the most obvious suspect, Feng Mingqian, the envoy of Nan'an State.
Feng Mingqian was not tortured, and he was even dressed neatly and ate clean food.
He was kept in a makeshift cell and suffered less than other prisoners.
But everyone knows: This is to give face to Nan'an, not because Tianwu is soft-hearted or afraid of trouble...
At this moment, Fu Chenan was sitting opposite Feng Mingqian, with a mottled table between the two of them.
Fu Chenan extended an invitation, and Feng Mingqian sat down nervously.
"Your Highness, I am innocent..."
Fu Chenan waved his hand: "I know what you mean... Come on, serve the food and wine..."
Feng Mingqian became even more nervous: Is this the last meal before execution?
He watched helplessly as the table was set up with wine and food.
It was the light dishes and glutinous rice wine that Nan'an Kingdom usually liked - he became even more panicked.
You didn’t consider your eating habits at the state banquet, but you are considering them now?
Fu Chenan smiled: "I've thought about it many times, and I always feel that it's not you who should have done it..."
"Because if you did it, it would be too clumsy - it doesn't conform to your Nan'an country's habits of doing things."
Feng Mingqian: ...Thank you?
Fu Chenan: "But now the courts of several countries are watching, and you appear to be the most suspicious. You need to find a way to clear yourself of suspicion..."
Feng Mingqian nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
"There are only three possible consequences of this incident."
"First, we need to clear you of suspicion and find the real murderer. The Tianlang Nation will point its swords at the other party and seek justice."
"Second, we will clear you of suspicion and not find the real murderer."
"The Tianlang Nation is forcing you to seek justice for the rich farmland, food, and gold and silver of the Nan'an Nation."
Feng Mingqian nodded to show that he understood.
It's actually extortion.
"Third, you are still suspected of being the murderer."
"The Tianlang Nation has mobilized a large army to seek justice from you..."
When Feng Mingqian listened to Fu Chenan's analysis, he felt like his heart had fallen into an ice hole.
It sounds like "Tianlang Country has set its sights on Nan'an Country."
But damn it makes sense.
Nan'an has a weak military but is rich, Tianlang has a strong military but is poor, and Tianwu has both a strong military and money...
This time when he came to Tianwu Capital, he witnessed the prosperity of Tianwu Kingdom with his own eyes.
The Tianwu Kingdom has no need to take the money and food from the Nangan Kingdom.
They are really good at making money!
Therefore, the country that needs the wealth of Nannan the most is Tianlang Country.
He muttered with a pale face: "I've already said it, it's the Tianlang Country that's plotting against our Nan'an Country!"
"They only need to kill one envoy, and then they can use this as an excuse to raise troops in Nan'an."
"The Tianlang envoy died in Tianwu State. For the sake of the people's hearts, Tianwu State cannot stop Tianlang State from seeking justice from Nan'an State..."
Neither of them mentioned Toto.
Both of them knew that it was impossible for the Tatars to bypass the powerful Tianwu and attack the Kingdom of Nangan.
So it is very likely that the Tianlang Kingdom is setting up a plan to attack the Nangan Kingdom.
The situation has been determined and he can't escape.
Feng Mingqian almost burst into tears as he spoke.
All hopes rest on the Fu family father and son.
As soon as he thought of this, he slid down to his knees smoothly.
"Your Highness, I beg you, please save me..."
He was also a veteran official who had served in the imperial court for many years, and he knew very well that he would be the most likely cannon fodder in this matter.
He doesn't want to die, he also has an old wife, concubines, and grandchildren...
Fu Chenan straightened his back calmly and spoke slowly.
"Of course I have to find a way to save you. After all, I don't want to see Tianlang Country take over your Nan'an Country..."
"But what good will that do me?"
Feng Mingqian quickly stated: "I have money! I can give you money!"
Fu Chenan curled his lips and shook his head: "You are just a minister of Nan'an. Even if you give me all your wealth, it is just a drop in the bucket compared to Tianwu Kingdom..."
Feng Mingqian trembled: "Then...what do you want?"
Fu Chenan grinned and said, "Don't worry, what I value most about your Nan'an country is food."
Of course, there are also mountains of gold and silver and Nan'an's specialty medicinal herbs.
"I can ask you to write a letter to the Lord of Nan'an asking for help."
"If you can convince Lord Nan'an to sell us more food, we can definitely cooperate further."
"Tianwu Kingdom is willing to send troops to protect Nan'an Kingdom."
Feng Mingqian’s eyes widened: What?
Can I still write a letter to the king?
this……
He did not doubt the truthfulness of Fu Chenan's words.
They have made it clear that they also have their eyes on Nan'an's food and money.
If both Tianlang and Tianwu were after Nan'an's wealth, why did the ruler of Nan'an choose Tianwu instead of Tianlang?
Fu Chenan patiently persuaded: "Tianlang's style has always been very wolfish, burning, killing, and looting without mercy."
"We in Tianwu are different. Our goal is very clear. We don't want to kill all the people in Nan'an and seize a country without people to farm..."
"We just want to buy some food..."
"You Nan'an are like children walking in the city with gold in their hands. Tianlang is so poor, it's normal for you to be targeted..."
Feng Mingqian believed it.
He immediately stated: "I will write a letter to the king right now!"
Fu Chenan waved his hand and someone brought him paper and pen.
…
After coming out of prison, Fu Chenan reported and discussed with his father, and then sent the letter through special channels.
Then he went to see Xiao Yingchun.
He was so busy this whole night that I wonder if his wife was scared?
Xiao Yingchun watched people fall down from the poison and was inevitably afraid.
But after experiencing the horror of losing both parents, all other fears pale into insignificance.
After returning to Wolong Villa, she fed her two children, asked the confinement nanny to take them to bed, and then she lay down and fell asleep.
She hadn't dreamed for a long time, and this rare dream of her parents busying around in a small supermarket.
My mother was watching over the shop downstairs, chatting with the neighbors, while my father was cooking upstairs. The sound of the spatula hitting the pot was so familiar...
Xiao Yingchun burst into tears when she woke up.
She always felt bored with such ordinary days in the past, but now it is impossible to have them again.
Although she married Fu Chenan, made money, had children, and lived a comfortable life, she could never go back to the past...
When Fu Chenan came over, Xiao Yingchun was talking to the two kids.
"Wangwang, did you sleep well yesterday? Is the new bed (dragon chair) comfortable to sleep on?"
The little cub was very happy to be close to his mother. He responded with "ah ah" following his mother and wished he could speak immediately.
Miaomiao, who was next to Wangwang, heard the noise but didn't see her mother coming to talk to her. She got upset and stretched out her arms and legs and shouted, "Ah?"
Why don't you come and talk to me?
Xiao Yingchun then brought the two little guys closer together and spoke to one and then to the other.
Now the two little guys were happy and started babbling.
Fu Chenan looked at it intently for a while, and felt his heart was filled with anger.
He walked over, stretched out his arms and held Xiao Yingchun in his arms.
Xiao Yingchun turned around immediately: "Is the matter settled? What's the situation now?"
Fu Chenan explained the whole thing.
Naturally, the real murderer was not found, and there were many doubts, but this did not prevent the Fu father and son from aiming at their target.
"...regardless of whether it was done by Nan'an Country, Nan'an Country has already fallen into the trap. It would be better for us to benefit from it than for Tianlang Country..."
The military strength of Tianwu Kingdom and Tianlang Kingdom is similar, and they are not afraid of fighting.
If they could seize the opportunity to win over Nangan State, it would be like having an extra large granary for Tianwu State.
Xiao Yingchun and Fu Chenan no longer need to transport food from the Space-Time Supermarket.
People's lives are much better now...
No matter who sets up the game, Tianwu Kingdom just needs to aim at the target.
Target: Nan'an Kingdom.
