Chapter 160 How could Prince Ning be so strong!
"Fu'an County Master is indeed a talented person. This is the best Guangling San I have ever heard. I didn't expect you, a delicate and beautiful person, to be so determined to refuse to admit defeat."
"Your Majesty is so complimentary." Gu Xi stood up, saluted, and said calmly,
"My daughter has suffered a lot recently due to changes in her life experience, and she can't help but feel a little more angry. That's why she chose Guangling Powder, so as not to offend the emperor."
"It's not rude. Maybe I haven't heard a piece like this for a long time. The music is really more shocking than the music I usually listen to. I like it very much and I should give it a reward!"
The emperor waved his hand and said with a smile, his voice even higher than before.
When the father-in-law saw that the emperor was so cheerful, he hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, what are you going to reward the Master of Fu'an County? I will arrange it now."
"Fu'an, what do you want?" the emperor asked.
"My daughter has nothing to ask for. Whatever the emperor gives you is the best." Gu Xi's expression became more and more lazy, with a hint of tiredness.
She got sick last night and didn't get a good rest. She was tired again.
Want to sleep.
She really wanted to beg the Dog Emperor to let her go back to rest.
The emperor also saw the weariness in Gu Xi's expression, and he thought it was because Gu Xi had been wronged by Xie Changfeng.
Therefore, while I was angry with Xie Changfeng, I felt more pity for Gu Xi and wanted to compensate her.
"You are the head of the county, but you are a woman after all. If this land is too far away to manage, how about giving you 3,000 acres of land from Sanhuang County on the outskirts of Beijing?"
The emperor thought for a while and then said.
Gu Xi was stunned for a moment and thanked the emperor.
Unexpectedly, the emperor would reward me just for playing a piece of music.
Then she won't be polite.
With an extra three thousand acres of land, when she opens the system mall, she will exchange it for some high-yielding grain seeds and plant them.
After the reward was awarded, other ministers came to see him, so Gu Xi retreated to the side hall and waited for the commander of the imperial army to return from seeing King Ning.
After all, it was a play arranged in advance with Prince Ning. Gu Xi didn't wait too long when the commander of the forbidden army came back covered in blood and seriously injured.
"Have you really met Prince Ning?! Has he been captured?" The emperor's eyes trembled when he saw him like this, and he asked in surprise.
"Your Majesty, forgive me. Ahem, my subordinates are incompetent and are no match for Prince Ning. Not only did they fail to bring Prince Ning back, they also suffered heavy casualties. If other people had not fought to protect him, I would not have come back alive!"
The commander of the imperial army knelt on the ground and said with a pale face.
All the people he took with him died, and he was the only one who came back.
The commander of the imperial army felt that King Ning deliberately let him go and asked him to come back to report the news.
"Trash! Then Prince Ning is already at the end of his strength, and you can't even defeat him? You are the number one scholar in martial arts that I personally proclaimed, and you were number one in combat power back then. Is this all a joke!"
The emperor was furious, but hidden beneath the anger was a heart filled with fear.
How could Prince Ning be so strong!
If one day he brings someone to force him in, who can stop him?!
The waste in front of me obviously can’t!
"Ahem, Your Majesty, Wei Chen knows that he is guilty. The following words are by no means a shirk. What Wei Chen saw was that Prince Ning was strong and capable, and he didn't look like he had been seriously injured at all."
The commander of the imperial army covered his painful wound and said with fear.
Therefore, facing a prosperous King Ning, he had no power to fight back.
The commander of the imperial army truly felt how terrifying King Ning's strength was.
He is worthy of being the God of War!
"What?! He's not seriously injured?!" The emperor was surprised and angry when he heard this, "Can you confirm?"
"Your Majesty, how come this humble minister is also a martial arts champion. He has also practiced martial arts diligently over the years. He can defeat one against a hundred in the Forbidden Army. This is naturally confirmed."
The commander of the imperial army smiled bitterly.
He can fight one against a hundred, but King Ning is the god of war who can fight in and out of thousands of troops.
"Bastard!!" The emperor slammed his fist on the table and roared at the father-in-law, "Immediately ask someone to thank Changfeng for coming to the palace to see me!"
Xie Changfeng kept saying that Prince Ning was seriously injured and his life was in danger. It turned out that he had been lying to me!
The emperor was already afraid and distrustful of him. Now that he learned that Xie Changfeng was lying to him, his anger suddenly rose and his fear of him soared.
"Go to the side hall and invite the Lord of Fu'an County." The emperor asked the injured commander of the imperial army to retreat and then said.
After a while, Gu Xi came over, and she naturally saw the commander of the imperial army covered in blood, so she pretended to be surprised and asked,
"Your Majesty, did you really find the traitor Prince Ning according to the address I gave you?"
"Yes, Fu'an, you are indeed lucky, and you are worthy of your title." The emperor wanted to laugh, but he was not in the mood.
"It's just that the people I sent were too useless and didn't capture Prince Ning."
"After all, there are traces and clues. Now that I think about it, I am still a little confused and can't believe it. I think this Prince Ning is not difficult to find."
Gu Xi said, shaking his head in confusion, "How come General Xie has been looking for so long and still can't find it."
"Humph!" The emperor snorted angrily, "I have thanked Changfeng for entering the palace, and I want to ask him what's going on!"
"Your Majesty, I have something I don't know whether to say or not." Gu Xi looked hesitant.
"Fu'an, you can say whatever you want. I will never blame you."
She was originally coveted for Gu Xi's beauty, but was impressed by Gu Xi's piano skills. In addition, she also reported the whereabouts of Prince Ning, and the emperor already had a very good impression of Gu Xi.
"Your Majesty, in the matter of arresting Prince Ning, will General Xie be ineffective, or will he take this opportunity to avenge his personal grievances, eliminate dissidents, and then deploy his own people, and finally deceive the Emperor into trusting you? But in fact
But I unknowingly ignored you..."
As Gu Xi spoke, her voice became very low, and finally Tu Qiong saw her and gave the emperor a fatal blow.
This is the ultimate purpose of her entering the palace today.
A seed of Xie Changfeng's untrustworthiness and rebellion was planted in the emperor's heart, and it even gave birth to it quickly.
The emperor's face turned very ugly following Gu Xi's words, and he said angrily, "How dare he!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. It's just my daughter's wild guess." Gu Xi said lazily, not at all flustered.
Therefore, her perfunctory attitude not only failed to reduce the emperor's anger towards Xie Changfeng, but instead intensified it.
"Fu'an, not only are you not guilty, you are also meritorious!" The emperor suppressed his anger and said to Gu Xi in a warm voice,
"It was you who provided the traces of Prince Ning this time. I will reward you generously! What reward do you want?"
"The emperor has already rewarded me just now. I am satisfied and do not need any other rewards." Gu Xi said.
"One code equals one code." The emperor pondered for a moment and then said, "Then I will give you another three thousand acres of fiefdom. In addition, Sanhuang County will be your fiefdom from now on, and I will also give you a royal manor for your entertainment."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your gift. I am deeply grateful!" Gu Xi thanked him again.
This reward is so generous.
