Chapter 270 How to Quell the Rebellion
"I'm asking you a question." The beauty frowned slightly, which only made her look more beautiful.
"Prince Liang, Your Highness Prince Liang..." The third prince looked a little embarrassed.
He had only heard of the name of King Liang before, but had never seen him in person. Now he didn't know who to turn his attention to.
No one answered him for a moment.
The beauty asked the person beside her, "Is he stupid? Why can he only shout these few words?"
The Third Prince froze, but he wasn't feeling humiliated or angry at all. The beauty's tone was so cold and calm that it didn't carry any other meaning.
The attendant beside the Third Prince was eager to protect his master. He strode forward angrily and said, "We only want to see His Royal Highness Prince Liang. The military situation is urgent. Please make way for us, my Lord..."
He said as he raised his hand.
County Magistrate Heqing became anxious and rushed to protect them.
Cheng Nianying stretched out her hand and gently blocked it.
The attendant fell heavily on his butt.
“…”
The attendant was stunned by the fall, and the third prince finally stopped muttering "Prince Liang, Prince Liang".
Magistrate Heqing sighed and looked down at his hands.
It's all in vain.
"Chop off his hands." Fu Yi raised his chin from behind.
As soon as these words came out, the Third Prince's face suddenly changed. He bowed and said, "My servant was reckless. Please forgive him for his eagerness to protect his master in a foreign land."
King Liang coughed lightly upon hearing the sound and was stopped by Yin Huiyi, who shook his head at him, signaling him to ignore it.
Fu Yi asked calmly, "What did the magistrate say just now?"
The third prince was startled for a moment, then instinctively replied, "Greetings to the Crown Prince." He then asked, "Isn't the Crown Prince the Prince of Liang?"
"It's me." Cheng Nianying responded readily without any pretense.
The magistrate sighed that he had finally found his use, and his face darkened: "Can't the Third Prince see that?"
The third prince's lips moved, but he could not answer.
Actually... you can see it.
There were so many people, but she was the only one walking in the front. But no matter how I thought about it, it shouldn't be...
"Prince Liang will not go with you to Huaiyuan to quell the rebellion." Cheng Nianying continued.
The Third Prince was even more anxious, but this time he had learned his lesson and bowed deeply to Cheng Nianying before asking, "Then I wonder who the court will send to lead the troops?"
Cheng Nianying: "I'll go."
The third prince suddenly fell silent.
If he had not been accompanied by officials from the Sifang Pavilion, he would have thought he had come to a makeshift troupe.
King Liang actually wanted to jump up and down.
That bastard Fu Yi had never discussed this with him before!
How could she be asked to go?
The third prince's attendant suddenly stood up from the ground, knelt down, and kowtowed, saying, "My master has suffered a lot to come to the Imperial Capital from Wenxiang. But he was not able to enter the Imperial Capital.
"Wen Xiang has always respected the Huan Dynasty and dared not disrespect it, and he has never failed to pay tribute. Today, I have offended you, my noble. You can chop off my hands or take my life!
"Everyone knows that Prince Liang is upright and brave. I only beg Your Highness to help my master restore order!"
He finished speaking in one breath, his head banging loudly.
King Liang felt a little reluctant.
But Cheng Nianying was very calm at this time. After a moment's thought, she said, "Then I'll go."
The attendant's crying voice was stuck in his throat.
Cheng Nianying continued, "The Huaiyuan Rebellion must be quelled. It is a border town of the Huan Dynasty."
"The Wenxiang Rebellion is your business. Whether you are willing to entrust it to me is also your business."
Cheng Nianying understood clearly that the people of Huan Dynasty were more important!
People from Wenxiang Country are called outsiders! Different!
The attendant was speechless. His eyes were red, and he stared at his hands with gritted teeth, as if wondering whether he should really chop them off to show his kindness to the nobleman in exchange for King Liang's sympathy.
The third prince couldn't help but sigh heavily and reached out to grab the attendant's arm.
There was a moment of struggle between heaven and man.
He did not help his attendant to his feet, but knelt down and kowtowed again, saying, "Please, my Lord, save Wen Xiang."
Fu Yi grabbed Cheng Nianying's hand from behind. Cheng Nianying blinked, vaguely understanding, and remained silent.
The Third Prince gritted his teeth, bowed again, and said loudly: "Please, Crown Prince, save Wen Xiang!"
The attendants could only shout, "Please, Prince, save Wen Xiang!"
Yin Huiyi's eyes flickered as he watched this scene. Fu Yi was indeed a very useful minister. When it was time to step back, he did so decisively. When it was time to play the villain, he took the lead.
This "Xiaohe girl" actually cooperated with him perfectly.
In comparison... Prince Liang's weaknesses are too well known to the world!
Everyone knows to act pitiful and beg him!
Cheng Nianying's voice rang out again: "Do you know who led the troops to invade Huaiyuan Border Town?"
Same problem.
The third prince no longer dared to look down on others. He put away his resentment and spoke seriously.
After he finished speaking, the Third Prince dared to look at Fu Yi and asked, "May I ask who this person is..."
"Fu Yi." Fu Yi introduced himself.
The third prince's expression changed again, but he suppressed it with all his might.
The famous Prince Danshuo...is also a person who abuses his power.
The third prince barely suppressed his embarrassed expression.
*
"The commander of the army was none other than Liang Xiang, a powerful official under Wen Xiang. Wen Xiang, intent on emulating the Huan Dynasty and preventing rebellion by military commanders, had transferred some of the power of military supervision to civil officials, leading to the gradual rise of Liang Xiang's power."
Fu Yi made some additional private additions to what the third prince had told him.
King Liang slammed the table in frustration, "How do you expect Xiao He to face this person?"
Cheng Nianying was not nervous at all.
She thought for a moment: "Should I just assassinate him?"
King Liang was stunned.
