After losing the vest at the beginning, the female general was forced to marry the scheming prince

Chapter 306
Heijo
It has been some time since Ning Youbei arrived in Pingcheng, and the main station of the army is between Pingcheng and Pengzhou.

Before Ning Youbei arrived, Generals Pei and Guo drove all the rebel troops stationed at the borders of Pingcheng, Yucheng, and Langcheng into the border of Pengzhou. Completely subdued.

Ning Youbei did not command blindly, but only let General Pei and General Guo wait for the opportunity to rescue Su Ziyi and others.

On this day, when Ning Youbei was discussing with Ye Yuan the plan to rescue Su Ziyi and others, a soldier came to report: General Sui asked to see him.

Ning Youbei paused, and asked the soldiers to bring Sui Lijing in.

Sui Lijing knelt down on one knee and made a grand salute to Ning Youbei.

"Get up."

After Sui Lijing stood up, he said to Ning Youbei: "My lord, I have something to report to you alone."

Before Ning Youbei could speak, Ye Yu'an found an excuse to go out.

When there were only two people, Sui Lijing held a box with both hands, "My lord, please take a look at the contents of the box first."

"What is it?"

Ning Youbei Sixth felt that the things in this box were unusual, and he didn't want to look at them.

Sui Lijing didn't answer directly: "Please ask the prince to read it before asking."

Ning Youbei sighed, and reluctantly took the box, which contained a scroll of imperial edict and a letter.

Ning Youbei glanced at Sui Lijing, Sui Lijing lowered his head slightly, unable to see his expression clearly.

Ning Youbei first opened the imperial decree, which was the last decree of Ning Youbei's father, the first emperor.

The last emperor's decree clearly stated that it was passed on to Ning Youyu, who is the current emperor.

This letter was also written by the first emperor, but the amount of information revealed in the letter is too large.

The reason why the town government can continue to this day is because they have another identity.

Back then, the ancestor of the Ning family and the founding emperor of the Dayu Kingdom had indeed made a deal with an immortal, leaving a blood mark on the Ning family's destined son.

In addition, they also imposed restrictions on the bloodline of the Zhen Guogong Mansion:

The direct line of the Duke of Zhen is the leader of the Dragon Guards, and he is dominated by the descendants of the Ning family who have blood marks on their bodies.If you don't do this, not only will you suffer backlash, but it will also lead to the end of the Zhen Guo government.

Therefore, Lao Jiangcheng King was regarded as his master by Lao Zhen Guo Gong since he was born, and a blood contract was signed between the two.

And Laozhen Guogong never thought of marrying the former empress to the prince. The one who originally fell in love with her was Yan Qingnan, a student of Laozhen Guogong (the governor of Zinan who helped King Jing rebel).

The first emperor didn't know the reason for this at the time. He was very ambitious and aimed at the throne when he was very young.

He took a fancy to the power of the Duke of Zhen's mansion, so he designed the Empress Xian and took advantage of it to force the old Duke of Zhen to marry the Queen to him.

Even so, the Zhen Guo Mansion never thought of surrendering to the late emperor, because a daughter could never be compared with the whole Zhen Guo Mansion.

After the old Jiangcheng king learned of the dirty behavior of the former emperor, he felt dissatisfied, so he began to hook up with the former queen.

Yan Qingnan was the first queen's crush. She hated the first emperor who designed her innocence. Although she had no feelings for the old Jiang Chengwang, she also got together with him to take revenge on the first emperor.

King Jing is the son of the former queen and the old Jiangcheng king.

After the Supreme Emperor knew these things, considering that the old Jiangcheng King was the destined emperor, he just reprimanded him in private and ordered him not to get involved with the former empress again.

If the first queen was not the only daughter of Lao Zhen Guogong, the supreme emperor would not have spared her life.

After being found out by the Supreme Emperor, the Old Jiangcheng King and the First Empress never met again, and the First Empress later gave birth to Princess Kangning with the First Emperor.

What they just don't know is:
The old Jiangcheng King had an affair with the first queen and King Jing was not his own son. The first emperor knew about it, but he still needed the Duke of Zhen at that time, so he kept silent.

It wasn't until later, when the first emperor ascended the throne and his power became stable, that he deliberately arranged for the eldest prince's mother and concubine to arrest the first empress and have an affair with the guards, and took the opportunity to kill the first prince and his mother and concubine.

And the reason why he designed the eldest prince and his concubine's mother was because he discovered that the first prince's mother and concubine had injected him with poppy insect Gu to control him, and this kind of poppy insect Gu was found by the eldest prince from outside.

It's just that the eldest prince didn't know that the former emperor used this poppy bug to control the Supreme Emperor, so he was very familiar with this poppy bug and knew its solution.

The first emperor said in the letter: He poisoned the Supreme Emperor because of the selfishness of the Supreme Emperor.

In his letter, the first emperor said with certainty:
"If my father hadn't been so partial to the old Jiangcheng king, I wouldn't have poisoned him. I would have used other means to fight for the throne."

……

After reading the letter, Ning Youbei didn't know what to say.

He looked at Sui Lijing, who was tall and majestic, with extraordinary momentum.

Ning Youbei was not familiar with Sui Lijing, Sui Lijing was 13 years older than him, and they had little contact with each other before.

Ning Youbei's memory of him when he was a child is: he is the son of Duke Zhen, the queen's nephew, and King Jing's companion, and he has been silently following behind King Jing all year round.

When Ning Youbei was older, Sui Lijing had already gone to Donghai to be stationed, and hadn't returned to Yudu for more than ten years.

However, Sui Lijing, who was standing in front of him now, had a very respectful attitude.

"Father's last decree and this letter were originally left to the emperor's brother, right? How did you get it?"

Sui Lijing replied respectfully:
"Yes, the late emperor's last decree and this letter were originally left to the emperor, but they were intercepted by the people of the Zhen Guo government after they found out. The Zhen Guo government has been in business for several generations, and it has some connections of its own."

"Then why are you sending me the letter now?"

If Sui Lijing hadn't given the letter to Ning Youbei, he would never have known these secrets.

Sui Lijing replied respectfully:
"Recognizing the descendants of the Ning family with the brand mark on their bodies is the mission of the Zhen Guo government. You have the brand mark on your body, my lord. It is only natural for me to give you this letter and recognize you as the master."

Ning Youbei's mood was a bit complicated.

"I know, but I don't need you to recognize me as the master."

Sui Lijing knew Ning Youbei's concerns, and said: "Although I have been with Ning Youdi for many years, I don't recognize him as the master."

Ning Youbei became curious, "Is it because the totem on Ning Youdi's body is incomplete?"

Sui Lijing hesitated for a moment, but answered truthfully.

"Actually not quite.

Although I knew that the totem on Youdi was incomplete, I still thought about recognizing him as the master.It's just that it didn't succeed when performing the Lord Recognition Ceremony. "

"There's also the Lord Recognition Ceremony?"

"Yes".

Sui Lijing replied:
"Perhaps the first emperor didn't know about this matter, so he didn't mention it in the letter.

Dragon guards are not free to join. When becoming a dragon guard, one must swear a blood oath.

Originally, the master recognition ceremony was completed, as long as they disobeyed the master's order, all those who became the Dragon Guard through the blood oath would suffer backlash, which is why the Dragon Guard obeyed only the order of the master. "
