Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

Chapter 483 8 tricks

Rong Jing glanced at them indifferently, and then looked at Ning Zhiwei as if nothing had happened.

Ning Zhiwei took the letter and read it, raising her eyebrows slightly.

Rong Jing pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "What did he say? How far has the war progressed?"

Ning Zhiwei's eyebrows curved, with a hint of smile, "We just captured the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty and slaughtered the Jin Dynasty's royal family. The Jin Dynasty has officially perished."

Just a few words caused an uproar in the whole audience. The surprise came too suddenly.

Everyone couldn't help but cheer, "Great, great, the Jin Dynasty is finally destroyed."

The Ning family has been guarding the border and resisting foreign enemies for two hundred years. I don't know how many Ning family members have died at the hands of the Jin people. It can be said that there is a blood feud, and it is either you die or I die.

And today, this major worry that had been weighing on the Ning family's mind was finally resolved.

Ning Zhiwei was filled with emotion and felt indescribably complicated.

Grandfather, the Jin Dynasty has been destroyed. I have finally avenged you. Rest in peace.

Ning Wenyin felt relieved. From now on, the Ning family members would no longer have to garrison in the northwest, and would never die on the battlefield again.

Everyone started to say, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. Our country's territory can expand again."

Rong Jing was also very happy, "Your Majesty, this is the best wedding gift we have ever received."

The scene was silent, and the court officials could not help but want to laugh.

Lord Xiao, Lord Rong likes the gift you sent very much.

Ning Zhiwei didn't think much about it, "They did a really great job."

"However, he asked in the letter how to divide the territory of the Jin Kingdom?"

This was a small court meeting, and the people present were all important officials above the fourth rank. They looked at each other in confusion, "What do you mean?"

Ning Zhiwei looked at the letter with a complicated expression, "According to our previous agreement, the area west of Yunzhou City will be designated as the border line, and we will share half of the Kingdom of Jin with Black Hawk."

"Now that we have conquered the capital of the Jin Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty is nominally destroyed, but in fact, half of its territory has not yet fallen into our hands."

Huo Shaokang was a little surprised. "Hasn't that already accomplished the goal? We and Black Hawk will each get half of this half of the land."

Since we have made an agreement before, let's just do it. We can get a quarter of the land, which makes me happy just thinking about it.

Ning Zhiwei shook the letter paper and said, "Master Xiao means that we should pursue the victory and continue the battle to open up the route to the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions."

No one reacted for a moment.

Rong Jing reacted the fastest, "So, he still wants to fight and wants to take over the other half of the Jin Kingdom's land, not just one quarter?"

He thought this allocation was quite reasonable.

They have contributed money, manpower and effort, so there is nothing wrong with each taking half.

Ning Zhiwei waved his hand, "No, he wants it all. He wants the Jin Kingdom to be included in the Yong Dynasty's version."

Everyone gasped, he was so ambitious.

He had only taken half of it, but he had already set his sights on the other half, wanting to own it all.

Ning Qiusheng couldn't help but say, "It's a good idea, but, can Lord Black Hawk agree?"

Ning Zhiwei was madly excited. Who wouldn’t want to gain more territory?

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and you will regret it if you miss it.

"This requires us to come up with a best of both worlds solution to convince Black Hawk."

The Minister of War pursed his lips and said, "This is a bit difficult. If someone gives us a kingdom for nothing, will he be happy? Will his subordinates be happy?"

Black Hawk is Ning Ba. Only a few people know this secret, and many court officials do not know it.

In their eyes, Black Hawk was the son-in-law of the Jin emperor, and they could not bear the humiliation and rose up in rebellion.

The Minister of Revenue laughed and said, "Can you persuade him to submit to the Yong Dynasty?"

Ning Zhiwei shook her head. It was impossible for Ning Ba to come back.

He can't come back either.

Rong Jing tapped the table, thoughtfully, "Since Lord Xiao dared to bring it up, he must be somewhat confident. What did he suggest?"

Ning Zhiwei waved her hand and said, "I didn't mention it."

This was beyond Rong Jing's expectation. It was impossible, right? "Can I see the letter?"

Ning Zhiwei paused and looked at Rong Jing deeply. Rong Jing had a frank expression on his face.

Everyone's eyes were shining, their gazes were drifting here and there, and they looked gossipy.

It is an open secret that Xiao Linfeng is attracted to the empress. No one dares to mention it openly, but it is hard to say it in private.

There were three sheets of letter paper. Ning Zhiwei handed over the top two. Rong Jing read ten lines at a glance and was silent for a moment, thinking, what a scheming dog.

The content is quite serious, but the tone and the words reveal an indescribable intimacy.

Everyone wants to know what's in the letter, but they don't dare to ask.

Countless thoughts flashed through Rong Jing's mind, "I do have an idea."

"Talk about it."

Rong Jing looked serious, "I support Lord Xiao's idea. We should continue to fight until the Kingdom of Jin is fully incorporated into our territory."

"And we sent troops to help General Black Hawk attack the Western Region and become the king of the Western Region."

"In this way, the Silk Road is in our own hands and is unimpeded, which is of great benefit to our country. For the sake of future generations, this is a retreat route that can be used for both attack and defense."

King of the Western Regions? This idea is also very bold, but if you think about it carefully, it is still feasible.

"For General Black Hawk, the Jin Kingdom was his nightmare and the culprit for the deaths of his father and brother in battle. He once betrayed his family and his country and killed his own soldiers. He took down the Jin Kingdom and incorporated it into the Yong Kingdom as atonement."

The court officials looked at Rong Jing in astonishment. What was he saying? Why couldn't they understand?

Isn't Black Hawk a Jin national? Could it be... not?

Ning Zhiwei was also shocked.

Rong Jing looked over and said, "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

"No, it's just as I thought." Ning Zhiwei once said this to Ning Ba.

Rong Jing was pleasantly surprised. "It seems that we are in sync and have the same ideas."

Ning Zhiwei smiled slightly. What do you mean by telepathy? This should be the vision that politicians must have.

"anything else?"

Rong Jing said seriously, "Lord Xiao is brave and good at fighting. He is a rare general. He is a man of great ambition. We should let him go out to expand the territory and help Black Hawk fight."

Okay, everyone understands, just stay away and don’t come back.

Ning Zhiwei did not comment, but just said, "It may be difficult to convince Black Hawk to abandon the Kingdom of Jin and attack the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions with just a few words. He is not just one person, but a group of interests! Everyone, go back and think about it carefully. Is there any good solution?"

"Yes."

After everyone left, Rong Jing still refused to leave. He glanced at the letter and said casually, "Well, can I see it?"

Ning Zhiwei rubbed his brows. This was nothing shameful. "Let's see."

Rong Jing seemed to pick up the letter slowly, but in fact his eyes were eager to read it.

Well, this one is completely different in style from the previous two.

The first two are quite serious, all about national affairs.

This one... was full of concern and caring. She also said that wherever she went, she would collect some local specialties to send back home. She also wrote some local travel notes and sent them to her. She was respectful yet close.

People say that he is a civil official with many thoughts in his mind. He should really see the thoughts and thoughts of a military man that are everywhere.

The last sentence made him roll his eyes. Haha, don’t even think about it!
