Chapter 866 Six Meridians Divine Sword
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang..."

After a fierce and very short burst of gunfire, Tianlong Temple returned to its former tranquility, and all the Duan family members in front of it were slaughtered. Even those big monks who were flying around were not spared. It can be seen that the development of firearms and technology is the terminator of martial arts.

"Cough! Luckily I was prepared in advance." Suning coughed violently, then he took a deep breath, revealing the top-level bulletproof vest inside.

"Master, are you okay?" Jinyiwei commander Su Yi hurriedly helped Su Ning up and asked.

"It's okay! I got away with it this time." The attack just now happened in a flash. Recalling the thrill of that time, Su Ning still felt a lingering fear, because he had no time to react at all.

"Master, we found this inside the Tianlong Temple." Then the Jinyiwei commander Su Yi handed Su Ning two books.

"What? One Finger Zen? Six Meridians Divine Sword?" Looking at the two martial arts manuals handed over by Su Yi, Su Ning became confused again.

"Exactly."

"Clean up the battlefield as soon as possible! No one from the Duan family can be left alive. Also, announce to the public that I am seriously injured." Su Ning, who was suddenly surprised, looked at Murong Yanzhao on the side, and urged him to clean up the battlefield as soon as possible.

"Yes! Your Majesty."

"Also, let Han Chong lead 100,000 Ningyuan troops to guard the southwest, Liao Wenjun lead 100,000 troops to guard Jiaozhi, and when the rest of the troops return to Jiangning Prefecture, they will take over all areas south of the Yangtze River." Then Su Ning looked at Su Yi, the commander of the Jinyiwei, and gave the order.

"Yes! Master, will it be bad for the situation in Jiangnan if we just announce to the outside world that we are seriously injured?" As the AI robot stayed with Suning for longer and longer periods of time, it had slowly begun to try to think independently.

"Humph! We destroyed Dali and Jiaozhi so easily, which will surely make the Bianjing court even more wary. So, Bianjing will definitely try every possible means to transfer me there and place me under house arrest. So, for now, my only option is to feign illness and not go."

"Yes! Master." The Ningyuan Army destroyed Dali and Jiaozhi in succession within half a year, which immediately shook the land of China. Especially the two jackals, the Liao Dynasty in the north and the Xixia in the northwest, immediately felt frightened and realized that they were both about to encounter big trouble.

……

In fact, the people in Bian Jing did not feel much relieved at this time. They felt fear when facing Prince Ning again. This fear had far exceeded the Song Dynasty court's fear of the Liao Dynasty and the Western Xia Dynasty. Then they chose to acquiesce in the Ningyuan Army's small move to take over various parts of Jiangnan when they returned. They were just worried that one day they would make the young Prince Ning unhappy. However, the news that Prince Ning was seriously injured in Tianlong Temple spread like wildfire, which made the old emperor and the ministers in Bian Jing breathe a sigh of relief.

"Master Shen, is Prince Ning really seriously injured?" The old emperor looked at Master Shen in front of him with a complicated expression of surprise and disbelief, and asked.

"It should be! After Prince Ning returned to Jiangning Prefecture this time, he kept summoning all the high-ranking officials of the Ningyuan Army. Prince Ning's cabinet stayed in Prince Ning's Mansion to work every day, and the famous doctors in Jiangning Prefecture were also invited into Prince Ning's Mansion one after another." Prime Minister Shen looked at the old emperor with some regret and explained.

"Oh? Prince Ning personally led the expedition to Dali this time. Why didn't you, Prime Minister Shen, accompany him?" The old emperor then looked at Prime Minister Shen with a puzzled look on his face and asked.

"Eh? Your Majesty, Prince Ning has guessed that Bian Jing is setting a trap for him, and has been quarreling with this old minister. Naturally, he doesn't want me to accompany the army to the battle."

"Hmph! He is indeed a child at heart. I will send him a few more imperial physicians to take a look at Prince Ning's specific condition." Hearing that Su Ning was so willful and reckless, the old emperor said happily.

"The officials are wise."

"Oh! I really hope that the news about Prince Ning being seriously ill is true. This guy is really developing too fast. When I think about him being only seventeen years old, I am worried and can't sleep at night. You say how great it would be if he was my biological son."

"Huh? Your Majesty, if Zhao Ning is really your little prince, I think your feelings would be completely different." At this moment, the ministers all looked at each other with a wry smile, and then Minister Shen shook his head with a helpless look. If a family had a son who could make such a fuss, he would definitely live twenty years less.

"Yes! By then, I might be even more miserable than Gu Yankai." The old emperor, after reacting, also smiled bitterly.

At this time, Princess Huirou, who was the nominal wife of Prince Ning, naturally wanted to see Prince Ning. Unfortunately, she was politely rejected by the maid outside the door every time. She could smell the strong smell of herbs just by standing outside the door, and saw that every famous doctor who came out of the inner chamber would shake his head and leave. Princess Huirou guessed that Prince Ning must be seriously injured this time.

In fact, Princess Huirou couldn't describe her current complicated mentality. Although Prince Ning was nominally the husband given to her by the emperor, the two of them had never met each other even once. Therefore, she didn't feel much about whether Prince Ning was dead or alive. She was only melancholy about her future and the loneliness that she couldn't get rid of.

Princess Huirou came to the lake of the temporary Ning Wang Mansion aimlessly again. She didn't know when she started to like coming here to relax. Perhaps it was from the time when she picked up the strange toy dropped by the "little monk". At this time, the strange toy had long been played by Princess Huirou until it ran out of battery and turned off. It was a pity that the "little monk" fishing by the lake never appeared again.

In fact, the new Ning Wang Mansion in Jiangning Prefecture has been completed. Princess Huirou also heard that Ning Wang used a lot of strange "machines", and many of the woods were precious woods transported back from Jiaozhi and Dali. As for why it was called "machines", no one could explain it. It is said that with the segmented construction of tens of thousands of bricklayers and carpenters working day and night, it took only two years to build an area of 72 square meters. The huge structure with a construction area of about 15 square meters alone is all made of brick and wood structure, yellow glazed tiles, and a blue-white stone base decorated with magnificent gold and colorful paintings. The palace is surrounded by ten-meter-high walls, 960 meters long from north to south and 760 meters wide from east to west. There is also a wide moat outside. The central axis of Ning Wang Mansion is the central street of the entire Jiangning Prefecture. It was just built and shocked the spies who were monitoring Ning Wang from all sides. The old emperor of Bianjing was also angry again and couldn't eat for several days.

"Little monk? When did you come back?" Princess Huirou, who was wandering aimlessly, saw the familiar figure and couldn't help but feel surprised.

"Huh?" The "little monk" who was leisurely fishing looked over in surprise, then saw the Princess Huirou, whom he had only met once, and replied with some surprise, "Hello! I just got back."

"Little Master, did you drop this toy?" Princess Huirou, who was surprised at this moment, immediately remembered the toy, and then blushed and took it out and handed it to the "little monk" and asked.

"Oh? Yes! I didn't expect you to pick it up." The "little monk" took the handheld game console he dropped in surprise at first, then looked at Princess Huirou in front of him with a smile and nodded.

"Little Master, I'm sorry! I wanted to return it to you as soon as possible, but you haven't shown up since then, so I couldn't help but break it." Princess Huirou immediately explained with a face full of shame.

"You can play?" This time the "little monk" was really surprised.

"Huh? Yes! I'll learn it after some research."

"Oh? You're quite clever." The "little monk" replaced the battery of the game console without commenting, then turned it on and handed it to Princess Huirou. "Here you go! You can continue to use it."

"Ah?" Princess Huirou immediately reached out to take it in surprise, but after thinking about it, she shyly withdrew her hand, and then explained to the "little monk" with some shame, "Little Master, this toy originally belonged to you, and now it's just the right time to return it to its original owner."

"No need! Just consider it a gift for you."

"Ah? Thank you very much, Master."

"You are welcome."

"Little Master, did you follow His Royal Highness Prince Ning on the southern expedition a few days ago?" At this time, Princess Huirou began to guess the true identity of the "little monk" in front of her.

"Huh? Yes! I have some basic skills, and I happened to be recruited by the prince to protect him." The "little monk" explained casually, suppressing a smile. "Ah? Little Master, you really know martial arts?" Princess Huirou's eyes widened in surprise.

"." The "little monk" did not respond to Princess Huirou's questioning. Instead, relying on the martial arts in his mind, he launched the "Six Meridians Divine Sword" at a large tree in the distance. Then, a series of sonic booms sounded, "biu! biu! biu..."

"Ah..." Seeing the series of finger holes appearing in the distant tree and the sonic boom, Princess Huirou and the maids around her opened their mouths in surprise. "Young Master, your martial arts are so powerful?"

"Haha, this is called the Six Meridians Divine Sword! And I also know the One Finger Zen."

The "little monk" fishing leisurely by the lake is naturally Su Ning. Back when he was in the Tianlong Temple in Dali, Su Ning had just obtained the two martial arts manuals, "One Finger of Sun" and "Six Meridians Divine Sword". The "system" in his mind had a magical reaction and reminded Su Ning that he could make the two martial arts for himself. Su Ning was immediately surprised and hid himself to practice secretly as soon as he returned to Jiangning Mansion. As for the "medicine jar" in the inner bedroom, it was just an AI robot deliberately released by Suning, just to be able to conceal his tracks. After all, Jiangning Mansion and Daning Kingdom have now become the focus of all forces in China.

"Young Master, since your martial arts are so powerful, why did Prince Ning get injured?" After being shocked, Princess Huirou began to inquire.

"Huh? I was careless. Prince Ning won't die anyway."

"Oh?"

"Hey! I heard that the people in the palace have started to move to the new Ning Palace. Why are you still staying here?" Then Su Ning looked at Princess Huirou in front of him with curiosity and asked.

"Huh? No one came to ask me to move there. I thought Prince Ning didn't want me to move." Princess Huirou was also confused. She had unknowingly become a transparent person in Prince Ning's mansion.

"Uh... I guess everyone was busy treating Prince Ning's injuries, and for a moment they missed you." Su Ning still felt a little embarrassed at this time. He was indeed busy studying martial arts during this period.

"Young Master, is the new Prince Ning's Mansion very beautiful?" Princess Huirou then looked at Su Ning in front of her curiously and asked.

"It's great! Prince Ning's Mansion is divided into office and living areas. The living areas are modeled after the gardens of Suzhou. Being in them feels like being immersed in the beauty of nature."

In fact, in order to speed up the construction, Suning initially built the gardens in the living area according to the classic Suzhou gardens in the space world, and many of the architectural styles only appeared in the Ming and Qing dynasties. In addition, a large number of engineering machinery and AI robots were used, so the huge Ning Wang Mansion was built in just two years. You know, it is much more awesome than the broken palace in Bianjing. This is also the fundamental reason why the old emperor of Bianjing felt angry and depressed.

"Oh? It seems that Prince Ning has put in a lot of thought." Princess Huirou showed a thoughtful expression at this time. She really hoped that Su Ning could continue to be so arrogant and extravagant.

……

The Ning Prince's Mansion was indeed very beautifully built, and its location was at the same place as the Nanjing Ming Palace in later generations. It can be seen that Sheng Hong, who was responsible for the site selection, was very capable. At this time, Sheng Hualan, who had successfully given birth, and Sheng Shulan, who was pregnant, naturally brought all the female members of the Sheng family to see it. Even Mrs. Sheng, who had always seen the world, was shocked.

"Hualan, you have to persuade Prince Ning! The Ning Palace is even bigger and more prosperous than the imperial palace in Bianjing. This is beyond the rules!" You know, Old Lady Sheng also stayed in the palace when she was young, so she naturally knew that Su Ning's behavior was a violation of the rules.

"Grandma, the prince always has his own plans for what he does and doesn't like people from the inner court to interfere too much." Although Sheng Hualan also felt that this was not a good idea, she also knew that Su Ning did not like the inner court's family to interfere in state affairs.

"Hualan, is it said outside that Prince Ning was seriously injured?" Then Old Lady Sheng asked about Su Ning's injury in confusion, as she always felt that something seemed to be wrong.

"It's fake! The prince felt that if he destroyed Dali and Jiaozhi at once, it would surely terrify Bian Jing, Liao Dynasty and other countries, so he pretended to be sick and stayed in Jiangning Prefecture." Sheng Hualan hurriedly smiled bitterly and whispered in Mrs. Sheng's ear to explain.

"Well, that's true! Prince Ning now controls all areas south of the Yangtze River, so it is indeed necessary to show some weakness." At this time, Old Lady Sheng nodded in agreement, feeling that Su Ning was not as simple as he seemed.

"Grandmother, the prince said that there won't be any major wars in the next few years. We just need to proceed steadily in the remaining battles in Indochina. Then we will vigorously develop our Jiangnan region."

"Well, Hualan, as long as Prince Ning treats you and Shulan well, that's all that's fine."

At this time, the eldest lady Wang Ruofu was already grinning with joy. She looked at her eldest daughter with shining eyes and said, "Hualan, did the prince say that Zheng'er would be appointed as the Prince of Ning?"

"what?"

"Madam, what nonsense are you talking about?" Old Lady Sheng on the side quickly turned her head with an unhappy look on her face and looked at her stupid daughter-in-law, feeling that it was a mistake to bring her here this time.

"Mother, I didn't say anything wrong. Although our Hualan is only Prince Ning's concubine, Zheng'er is Prince Ning's eldest son!" Wang Ruofu didn't feel that there was anything wrong at this time. Naturally, she wanted her grandson to have the opportunity to become Prince Ning.

"you……"

"Grandma, it's okay! Prince Ning is not too taboo about these things, and he doesn't care too much about the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children." Seeing that her grandmother was about to argue with her mother, Sheng Hualan on the side hurriedly explained with a nonchalant smile.

"Oh? Really?" At this time, Mrs. Sheng couldn't help but feel surprised, and guessed that it might be related to Su Ning's childhood experience.

"Seriously! The prince often said that a family should be able to speak freely and there's no need to be bound by so-called rules."

"Hualan, Shulan, although His Royal Highness Prince Ning is relatively open-minded, there are some things you can't think about carelessly. You must know that the Princess Consort of Prince Ning is the eldest princess of the official family." Then, Old Lady Sheng suddenly grabbed the hands of sisters Sheng Hualan and Sheng Shulan, and then looked at the two sisters in front of her earnestly and persuaded them.

"Grandma, we all know."

At this time, Wang Ruofu was very unhappy after being scolded by Old Lady Sheng, while Lin Qinshuang, who had been silent on the side, looked at the luxurious palace in front of her with envy. She suddenly felt that her life in the Sheng Mansion, which she had worked hard for all her life, was a joke. She realized that such a luxurious life was what she wanted most in her heart. Looking at Sheng Hualan, who was the center of attention at this time, she couldn't help but reveal a thoughtful expression.

"Hualan, your aunt went to Yangzhou from Bian Jing a few days ago. She said that your uncle and your uncle-in-law were not doing well in their official careers, so they wanted to move the whole family to Jiangning Prefecture." Then Wang Ruofu, the eldest lady of the Sheng family, made another request.

"Mother, the prince has already told me about this. Now that the Ningyuan Army has just controlled all areas south of the Yangtze River, it is already a headache for him just to arrange for the surrendered officials from the south of the Yangtze River, so it is best to let my uncle and my uncle-in-law continue to stay in the north of the Yangtze River." At this time, Sheng Hualan couldn't help but be surprised at Su Ning's foresight. He had predicted early on that these relatives of the Sheng family would definitely come over to suck their blood.

"This..." As expected, Wang Ruofu showed a disappointed expression, and also felt that it was like walking in the night in fine clothes if he did not return home after becoming rich.

"Madam, the Jiangnan region is a land of many complications. Prince Ning has just occupied the southwest, and it is the busiest time for the Great Ning Kingdom. As family members, we should not cause more trouble for Prince Ning." Knowing that her daughter-in-law has always been very stupid, Mrs. Sheng shook her head helplessly and persuaded her.

"Yes! Mother, Ruofu knows."
