When Emperor Nanyue finished speaking, the whole hall was in an uproar.

Five hundred thousand soldiers and horses! Give them to a romantic prince!

Many people think that Emperor Nanyue is crazy.

"Your Majesty, think twice, you must not do this!"

Chen Jing was the first to step forward and spoke eagerly,

Upon hearing this, Emperor Nanyue narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice,

"The prince is the crown prince of our Nanyue Kingdom. Why shouldn't he lead the army to go on an expedition?"

Chen Jing pursed his lips,

"Back to the emperor, Xiao Yening has always been known as the God of War, and the prince...the prince has no experience in leading troops after all. If he is rashly allowed to face Xiao Yening, I'm afraid he will put his highness in danger!"

Chen Jing finished speaking,

Nan Feiling glanced sideways at him,

This person just said that he couldn't beat Xiao Yening, and he also said that he was afraid that he would be in danger, ha~

Upon hearing this, Emperor Nanyue snorted and said casually,

"Danger? The prince is the future crown prince of the country. If Nanyue is in trouble, how can he be afraid of danger?"

After Emperor Nanyue finished speaking, Chen Jing opened his mouth and wanted to say something else, but Emperor Nanyue interrupted him impatiently, and then looked at Nan Feiling,

"Prince, what do you think? Are you willing?"

After Emperor Nanyue finished speaking, Nan Feiling raised his eyes and looked at him,

The two looked at each other, and Nan Feiling was slightly stunned.

This was the first time that he saw an emotion called expectation in Emperor Nanyue's eyes.

"Um?"

Xu Shi saw that Nan Feiling didn't speak for a long time.

Emperor Nanyue hummed softly,

Hearing the sound, Nan Feiling pursed his lips, then gritted his teeth,

"My son is willing!"

"good!"

Emperor Nanyue was obviously very happy when he received his answer. He raised his hand and patted his leg, stood up,

"As expected of me, the Prince of Nanyue. With my decree, Prince Nan Feiling is appointed as the general of Pingyu. He has an army of 100,000. He will rush to Ningcheng to attack the enemy of Dayu today!"

The words of Emperor Nanyue fell,

Chen Jing opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Xu Ping on the side calmly tugged on his sleeve, signaling him to be silent.

Chen Jing was puzzled, but after a moment he sighed and returned to his original position.

Nan Feiling received the order, and the group discussed the matter of sending troops for a long time.

It was not until two hours later that the meeting was dissolved!

After Nan Feiling retired from the court, he returned directly to the East Palace. Prime Minister Xu did not block anyone, his face was livid with anger.

Chen Jing waited until everyone was almost gone before he pulled Xu Ping aside.

"Brother Xu, we were in the main hall just now, why did you stop me?"

Chen Jing finished speaking,

Xu Ping raised his eyes and glanced at him, and then asked something unexpected,

"You also saw what happened in the main hall just now. Do you think that even if you speak, the emperor will change his mind?"

Chen Jing frowned, feeling a little unsure for a moment.

"Even if you don't, you can't just say nothing because of this. Watch with your own eyes the emperor handing over the lives of the five hundred thousand soldiers of Nanyue into the hands of the prince. Isn't the emperor's decision making fun of the lives of these soldiers?"

Chen Jing finished speaking,

Xu Ping raised his eyes and glanced at him, and said in a low voice,

"Chen Jing, be careful. What the Emperor does is not for you and me to discuss!"

Chen Jing's facial features twisted, and for a moment he looked anxious and said,

"Brother Xu, aren't you worried? You also know Xiao Yening's ability. Even if the veteran general personally leads the troops, he may not be his opponent, let alone His Royal Highness, with half a million soldiers and horses.

, that’s no joke…”

Chen Jing's words were different from his eagerness.

Xu Ping lowered his head and remained indifferent for a moment, looked at him and said,

"Do you really think the prince is doing nothing?"

Chen Jing was stunned when he heard this and said for a moment,

"What do you mean? His Majesty the Crown Prince...it's not like you don't understand his abilities. If he is asked to please a woman, I have absolute confidence in him. However, if he leads troops to fight or fights with Xiao Yening, that's still the case.

Forget it!"

Looking at Chen Jing with a look of disgust, Xu Ping raised his eyes slightly.

"You and I have different ideas!"

"Um?"

Chen Jing was at a loss,

Xu Ping turned around and glanced in the direction of the East Palace.

"The emperor's intention to pass the throne to the prince has been very clear, and you also know the emperor's character. Once he really makes a decision, it is not something you and I can change easily. Do you think it is necessary to spend half a million soldiers and horses?

Is it cost-effective to test the prince’s ability, or should we use the entire Nanyue to test it?”

Xu Ping finished speaking,

Chen Jing lowered his eyes and pondered for a long time, and suddenly realized,

"Ah, I understand, you want to..."

"That's right!"

After Shen Sheng interrupted his words, Xu Ping said,

"I have been thinking about it for a long time just now in the palace. The emperor is determined to pass the throne to the prince. So, we can only choose to accept it. However, based on the attitude of His Highness the prince in the palace just now, I am willing to choose to believe him once and lead the troops this time.

Going to war might as well be an opportunity. With half a million soldiers and horses, if

He succeeded in repelling Xiao Yening and regained my Nanyue City. Then, I am willing to try to assist him sincerely. However, if he really did nothing and ruined the lives of these 500,000 soldiers, then...

Even if I risk my family’s lives, I will not agree to the emperor passing the throne to him!”

After Xu Ping finished speaking, Chen Jing thought for a while, then nodded,

"You are right, this war is an opportunity!"

Chen Jing finished speaking,

Xu Ping put his hands behind his back and looked far away in the direction of the East Palace.

"That's half a million soldiers and horses. I hope His Highness the Prince will not disappoint..."

The emperor ordered that the war was imminent, so Nan Feiling had no time to delay. He only spent three days adjusting his troops and horses before leading the expedition.

During this period, Qingniao left for a long time and never came back. Nan Feiling tried to send her a message, but every time the message was sent out, he never received any reply.

And Ningcheng is close to the Imperial City,

Therefore, even if the army marched slowly, it only took one day,

That night, Nan Feiling led his troops to Ningcheng. Yin Ji, the prefect of Ningcheng, led his people to greet him at the city gate.

Nan Feiling checked into the prefect's mansion directly and called Yin Ji over for questioning overnight.

Yin Ji is very young, looks fair and delicate,

Even though I was called over for questioning late at night, I didn’t feel dissatisfied at all.

Facing Nan Feiling, he looked calm, neither contradictory nor flattering.

"What's the situation in Ningcheng now? Master Yin, please talk to this prince!"

Hearing this, Yin Ji lowered his head slightly, and then said,

"Back to Your Highness, Prince Xiao Yening, the Northern Prince of Dayu, is stationed outside the city with 200,000 soldiers and horses. However, in the past few days, they have neither plans to attack the city nor retreat. They have been standing guard outside the city.

, and now that Ningcheng has enough garrison personnel, please let His Highness the Crown Prince know how to plan!"

After Yin Ji finished speaking, Nan Feiling did not answer immediately, but frowned.

Ningcheng has less than 100,000 garrison troops, and there are no natural dangers to speak of.

Logically speaking, Xiao Yening's 200,000 troops should pursue the victory. What's more, Nan Feiling believed that as long as Xiao Yening made a move, Ningcheng would definitely fall before he came over. However, this Xiao Yening

What on earth was Ye Ning thinking that he would lay siege to the city and wait for their reinforcements to arrive?

After thinking for a long time, Nan Feiling still didn't come to any conclusion, so after a long time, he said out loud,

"Tomorrow the Crown Prince of Japan will personally lead 50,000 troops out of the city. I want to see what tricks Xiao Yening is playing!"

After Nan Feiling finished speaking, Xun Yang raised his eyes and looked at him,

Nan Feiling raised his chin,

"Master Yin, do you have something to say?"

Yin Ji looked at him silently for a moment, then withdrew his gaze and slowly shook his head.
