Chapter 604: Second Brother, I am willing to support you to ascend the throne!

"Weird?"

"Your Majesty, these words are very heartbreaking!"

"Is it possible that you are suspicious of His Majesty King Yong and are plotting against His Majesty?"

Zhuge Liang's eyes were extremely sharp, and when he looked at the censor, his face was cold, his tone was high, and his expression was somewhat scrutinizing.

"Master Zhuge's words are serious, but I have no such intention."

"It's just that now, when such a situation occurs, not only Xiaguan, but also all civil and military officials in the court are suspicious. As the censor, Xiaguan has the power to supervise all officials, so this question arises."

The censor seemed to have noticed a trace of dangerous aura starting to spread from him, and his tone suddenly became much softer, and he looked at Zhuge Liang with a somewhat apologetic smile.

"Ahem!"

Lin Qiushi coughed slightly, and the censor glanced in his direction subconsciously, and hesitated slightly: "Your Highness, can I see your Majesty?"

"Yes, Your Highness, now I, Dayu, is suffering from internal and external troubles. Even if Your Majesty is ill, we should still pay him a visit!"

"Second brother, what the Censor said is true. In the morning, my father was fine. Why did you suddenly become ill after seeing him for once?"

"Is there anything wrong with your soldiers inside and outside the palace?"

King Qi Lin also found the right opportunity to stand up, his words were aggressive, his eyes looked at Ning Fan unscrupulously, and he said coldly: "Whether it is public or private, I want to see my father. Please give me two invitations." It’s convenient, brother.”

Ning Fan glanced at him coldly and calmly, walked up to King Qi Lin, reached out and patted his face gently, then stretched out his left hand to hold King Qi Lin's cheek: "Old Third , It doesn’t have to be like this.”

"I know that you have doubts in your heart. You suspect that I am plotting against my father, or even intending to coerce and deceive you."

"But if I were you, I would never bark so loudly at court. If I really launched a palace coup, as you said, all the people in the imperial city are my people. When you say these words, do you think, Will I keep you?"

Ning Fan's tone was extremely calm, like an older and more sensible elder brother teaching his younger brother how to behave in the world.

"Emperor...Emperor brother!"

"you you……"

King Qi Lin pointed at Ning Fan and his lips began to tremble, but he couldn't say a word for a long time.

"Have you really... done something treasonous?"

"Look, it's so urgent!" Ning Fan's face showed a bit of disappointment, and he shook his head slightly: "Here, come, take King Qi Lin to the audience."

"promise!"

Two big men, Dian Wei and Xu Chu, came directly to King Qi Lin's side, stretched out their hands to lift his arms, and showed a grinning smile on their faces: "Your Highness, please!"

"Second brother!"

"I was wrong...Second brother!"

"Don't kill me, I...I am willing to support you on the throne!"

King Qi Lin's eyes were filled with fear and he spoke without hesitation, but Ning Fan's expression suddenly turned cold and he slapped him in the face.

"Asshole!"

"Ning'an, as a descendant of the royal family, you are so rebellious!"

"What's your intention?"

Seeing Ning Fan's stern expression, not only Ning An became uneasy, but even the civil and military officials in the court felt dizzy, but no one dared to say a word.

Didn’t you see those two burly men with fierce looks on their faces?

"Your Highness!"

Lin Qiushi finally came forward and bowed slightly: "His Royal Highness Qi Lin has no ill intentions, I am just worried about His Majesty's condition."

"Now, since His Majesty has promised His Highness to supervise the country, we must obey."

"However, His Majesty is ill, so we should go to the palace to visit him."

"Does the Prime Minister Zuo mean to enter the harem without permission?"

Lin Qiushi's face froze, but he did not retreat: "I would like to wait outside the palace, please come forward to see your majesty."

"That's what you mean too?"

Ning Fan looked around, and all the civil and military officials showed a bit of hesitation. Shen Li sighed softly, stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, people in the imperial court are in panic now. Your Majesty's intervention can really calm people's hearts! "

"Um!"

Ning Fan nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Since all the adults are concerned about the safety of my father, I can understand it. After I ask my father for instructions, I will let you see me."

"So, thank you Your Highness!"

The atmosphere above the court suddenly became extremely strange. They were whispering to each other but had nothing to say. Ning Fan walked up to the high platform step by step, stood beside the dragon chair, and said softly: "Everyone, foreign enemies are now raging in our territory, Dayu. The people are displaced, and the war ahead is tense. I am preparing to recruit new troops!"

"Recruiting soldiers?"

As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar in the court.

"Your Highness, you must not do this!"

"The turmoil has not yet stabilized, and the treasury is empty this year. The court cannot afford to recruit troops at this time!"

"Yes, there are no soldiers available in the capital now. If recruiting local warriors causes unrest, what should we do?"

"Your Highness, please think again!"

Seeing the figures coming forward to stop them, Ning Fan smiled and said, "This matter is the result of discussions between this king and my father, and there is no need to discuss it further."

"Everyone, please step back!"

"Your Majesty, please leave!"

…

Royal study room.

Zhuge Liang, Shang Yang, Guo Jia and others gathered together. Everyone here is a direct descendant of Prince Yong's Mansion.

"Kong Ming, you immediately issue an order to take Wei Zheng back to the capital."

"promise!"

"Shang Jun, military reform will begin from now on."

"My Lord, the war is not over yet. If we implement military reform at this time, will it be..."

"No problem!" Ning Fan shook his head and said with a smile: "Today's war is not over yet. It may end tomorrow."

"Yes!"

"My Lord!" Guo Jia suddenly showed a bit of concentration and bowed slightly: "Now the capital area is stable. Mobei has suffered losses and will definitely retreat to the northern border."

"The main force of Mobei was frustrated in Changyan. Now, it is in a dilemma. There is no soldier guarding the eastern border of Dayu. If Mobei marches to the eastern border..."

Hearing Guo Jia's words, not only Ning Fan frowned slightly, but Zhuge Liang, Shang Yang and others also showed a thoughtful look.

Guo Jia's worry is not unreasonable. This time, Mobei mobilized nearly 700,000 troops to knock on the door of Dayu, but now it has been repeatedly frustrated.

It is bound to be unwilling to retreat at this point.

Even more, when Dayu regroups and re-strengthens the northern border defense line, it will be even more difficult for them to knock on Dayu's door again.

What if they take this opportunity to turn to Donghuai and march eastward?

"My lord, Fengxiao's words are not without reason!"

"Now the Japanese are crossing the river to attack Huai. With Donghuai's current national strength, if Mobei marches eastward at this time, it will be difficult to resist."

"Well..."

Ning Fan's eyes were shining with a gleam of brilliance, and he said in a deep voice: "Then don't give them the opportunity to march eastward!"
