Husband is not good: this concubine and three husbands

Chapter 358
Ten days later, the troops of Ning Xiyao and Ning Xixiao were less than three kilometers away from the capital, but they were unable to enter the city.They were stopped outside the capital by the prince's army.

The prince had no military power, and the emperor handed over the military power to Ning Xiyao and Ning Xilie, but in fact, the emperor was worried that Ning Xiyao would kill the prince afterwards, so he still gave the prince some troops in the end.In addition, Shangguan He also expanded the team for the prince with his power and connections.That's why so many soldiers blocked Ning Xiyao and Ning Xixiao from outside the capital, not allowing them to enter.

With this posture, the prince probably already holds great power in the court, and he is afraid that he will soon ascend the throne.

Ning Xiyao stepped forward with his head held high, and said to a lieutenant general of the prince's army: "This king is King Min, the second prince of the former emperor, and the general who conquered the imperial seal of Beimo. How dare you stop me?"

"King Min is fighting hard in the northern desert, how could he suddenly appear on the outskirts of the capital, you dare to pretend to be our King Min?" The lieutenant general pretended not to know him.

"Impersonating? Hehe, the prince can even make up such an argument?" Ning Xiyao took out the emperor's imperial edict to make him a general and said, "This is the imperial edict entrusted to me by my father before I set off. It can be proved I am King Min without a doubt."

The lieutenant general was unmoved, and said: "If you are King Min, you should obviously fight against the enemy in Beimo, how could you return to Beijing without being called? This is a disobedience to the imperial decree! You lose your troops and disarm, and we will escort you to see the crown prince." .”

"What a joke! You actually charged me with an unwarranted crime! Why don't I come back to attend the funeral of my father? I will take care of the war in Beimo myself, but I must participate in my father's national funeral!"

"Prince Min, this is the order of the crown prince! The crown prince is the future emperor, do you dare to disobey the order of the emperor?"

Ning Xiyao sneered: "Your Majesty? He is only a prince now, so he dares to call himself Emperor? Isn't this a big treason?"

"Tomorrow is the day when the new emperor ascends the throne. The crown prince will soon be the emperor. I don't think the new emperor will blame me."

Ning Xixiao came out slowly, and said, "Then what about me? The crown prince even stopped me?"

The lieutenant general hesitated slightly, he knew this was the Lingwang.The crown prince only ordered that Ning Xiyao must never be allowed to enter the city, but he did not explicitly order Lingwang not to enter.Moreover, King Ling had a better relationship with the crown prince, and King Ling had assisted the crown prince, so he couldn't treat him like he did to King Min.

"King Ling was the emperor's favorite prince during his lifetime, so he is naturally different from others..."

"It turns out that the two princes have arrived," someone suddenly interrupted the lieutenant general, and a middle-aged man came out from the prince's army, and it was Shangguan He.

"It's just a coincidence that the two princes came here. The late emperor has already been buried in a grand manner. The ceremony was presided over by the crown prince himself. It was very beautiful. You came from Beimo, and the delay was too long. It's a pity that you didn't get to see the late emperor for the last time."

"Since you know, let us enter the city, and we will pay homage to the spirit of the emperor." Ning Xiyao was ready to fight at any time since he saw Shangguan He appearing.

"The late emperor has successfully entered the mausoleum. Of course, the two princes should pay homage to the late emperor. It's just that you came back from the northern desert and the bloody battlefield. How can you go to see the late emperor with a hostile spirit. Why don't you go to the city to cultivate a few times first?" On this day, let go of the hostility on my body, and I will welcome the two princes to meet the late emperor."

"Arrogance? Hehe, Shangguan He, can you give an even more ridiculous reason? Is it because we have to win you before we let you go?"

"Prince Min, do you think it's really good to see the soldiers fighting inside during the emperor's funeral? I don't think the emperor would want to see such a scene, right?"

"Father was able to give me the military power, so he trusted me and entrusted it to me to use. Now that the crown prince wants to be unkind to his brother, why should I care about brotherhood? If so, let's make a decision from the sword! "

As long as no one party makes concessions, fighting each other is definitely the only way to go.

After fighting for a while, suddenly heard the sound of horses, and then a powerful voice shouted: "Stop! They are King Min and King Ling, how can you be rude to the prince!"

"Third brother?"

"Third brother?"

Ning Xilie rode his horse and galloped to the rear, angrily yelling at the prince's soldiers.

Shangguan He didn't expect Ning Xilie to receive the news so soon, knowing that Ning Xiyao and the others were back.Both of them are there, so it's really hard to deal with.

"King Meng, King Min and King Ling have just returned from the battlefield, and they are too hostile. They should bathe and fast outside the city for three days before entering the palace."

"What kind of nonsense, this king didn't take a bath and fast when he came back from the war. Shangguan He, you are just a minister, how dare you stop the two princes?"

"King Meng, this old man is following the orders of the crown prince and the future new emperor, so why don't you obey the orders of the emperor?"

"He is not the new emperor, and the emperor will not give him the throne. You are all self-proclaimed!"

"The crown prince was granted by the previous emperor. The whole country knows that when the previous emperor passed away, the crown prince will naturally succeed him. It has always been like this. What's wrong?"

"The throne is for those who are capable. How can the crown prince's way of governing the country and his character make him a wise king? Could it be that the troops given to him by his father are used to deal with his own brothers?"

"If the king of Meng wants to argue, he can go to the prince himself to reason. The minister is only following orders. King Min and King Ling, please step back. After bathing and fasting, the minister will greet you in person."

"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. I beat you all over the place. Let's see if you dare to stop me."

So Ning Xilie's army also joined the ranks against the prince's army.

Ning Xixiao shouted to Ning Xilie: "Third brother, just take down Shangguan and congratulate."

Ning Xilie understood Ning Xixiao's meaning as soon as he rolled his eyes, and immediately only regarded the target as Shangguan He.

Ning Xilie has rich combat experience and is not afraid of death, so he bravely attacked Shangguan He.

Even if Shangguan He was on guard, he could not escape Ning Xilie's sudden attack.With a knife on his neck, Ning Xilie shouted: "Stop, Shangguan He is in my hands. If you don't want him to die, then make way and let us enter the palace. Otherwise, I will kill this old man !"

Everyone stopped their movements, the prince's soldiers were actually under the orders of Shangguan He, seeing him being threatened, how dare they move again.

"Stay out of the way?!" Ning Xilie shouted.

The lieutenant general had no choice but to order everyone to make way, Shangguan He still said: "It's not that you are not allowed to enter the palace, it's just that you can take a bath and fast for three days. Why do the three princes need to go to war?"

Ning Xiyao sneered and said, "Three days? The prince will ascend the throne tomorrow. After we bathe and fast for three days, the prince will be the new emperor. Isn't your goal achieved?"

After being seen through, Shangguan He stopped talking and watched Ning Xixiao and Ning Xiyao's horse gallop past.

He has been trying to suppress Ning Xilie's influence, but it doesn't work.Sure enough, Ning Xilie was a powerful obstacle.

Shangguan He was a little worried about the situation of the prince. How should he deal with these people who are stronger than him?
