I'm the villain in the book

Chapter 334 Chess game with the country as a child
History has shown that anyone who can achieve great things will have some very important right-hand men around him.

Liu Bei has Zhuge Liang, Liu Bang has Zhang Liang, Qin Shihuang has Li Si, and Jordan has Pippen.
As for Wei Changtian, the people he relied on most before were undoubtedly Chu Xianping and Qin Zhengqiu, and there might be another Du Chang in the future.

Good guy, it's okay to gather all the crouching dragons and phoenix chicks.

Of course, it's hard to say whether Du Chang is up to the task right now, and it will take some time to investigate.

But judging from the current situation, even if he is not considered a "handsome talent through the ages", he is definitely a "talent" at the very least.

Beautiful!

Sitting in the rickety carriage, Wei Changtian nodded happily.

With this configuration, wouldn't I not have to do anything myself in the future?
On the other hand, Ning Yongnian is surrounded by people from the same boat club, what can he use to fight against himself? !

and many more
Thinking of Ning Yongnian, the smile on Wei Changtian's face slowly froze.

Ever since the former really ordered Youjia to assassinate him, Wei Changtian officially regarded the Emperor of Daning as his most important enemy at this stage.

Although dealing with an emperor is undoubtedly far more difficult and complicated than dealing with a Liu family, Wei Changtian actually didn't have too many worries before.

But after learning that Bai Youheng and Ning Yongnian were mixed together, this kind of ease no longer existed.

At least it was difficult for Wei Changtian to be as calm as before.

Alas, I don't know what these two people are plotting. Has the Tongzhou Association found any information about Bai Youheng?
He thought to himself for a while, then shook his head and lifted the curtain of the car, and looked at the mountains and fields shrouded in night by the roadside.

The mountains in the distance are like solidified waves, extending all the way to the end of the unreachable sky.

Daning, the imperial palace.

Just as Wei Changtian and his party were galloping back to Fengyuan, ready to continue completing the "great cause" of beheading Yan Luo, Ning Yongnian was also planning his great cause.

What Wei Changtian thought before was correct, Ning Yongnian really doesn't have many available people around him now, what's more, he doesn't even know which people are "available" and which ones are "not available".

However, perhaps because the previous process of killing Yunlian was too easy, Wei Changtian ignored the most important thing——

No matter what, Ning Yongnian is a "Son of the Dao of Heaven" who enjoys the blessing of great luck.

And because of ignoring this matter, Wei Changtian did not notice another abnormality.

Since Ning Yongnian is the son of the Dao of Heaven, the direction of blessing is still the "Way of the Emperor" to rule the world. Then why in the two large-scale wars in Jizhou and Yuanzhou, the Daning court not only did not take advantage of the slightest, but even went everywhere Frustrated?
The Xu family "conspired to rebel" in Jizhou. Although the rebellion has been quelled now, the Xu family insisted on defending a mere city of Jizhou for several months. In the end, they were able to barely break through the city entirely by relying on the superiority of the imperial army in terms of numbers.

And in the end, the "remnants" of the Xu family, including Wei Yanyu, escaped, and no trace has been found so far.

Let's talk about the national war that took place in Wonju.

Dafeng entered the country with a large army of [-], and Daning defended Yuanzhou City with a comparable number of reinforcements from all over the country.

This was supposed to be a close contest, but the huge Yuanzhou City was only defended for [-] days, and even the remnants of the Liangzhou Army surrendered to the enemy in the end.

Although there was no problem with the frontline defense of Fengxian County afterwards, the decision to voluntarily give up a big city was really confusing.

And now that Dafeng's army has all retreated to Yuanzhou City because of Yan Luo's incident, and the chaos in Jizhou has subsided, it should be a great opportunity for Daning to launch a counterattack.

But Ning Yongnian still ordered Daning's army not to leave the county.

Such a "cowardly" strategic choice does not seem to be a big problem if viewed alone.

After all, Daning's country has encountered two major turmoils in succession, the "Xu Family's Rebellion" and the "Liu Wei Controversy", so it is really inappropriate to make rash moves.

But if one considers Ning Yongnian's status as "Son of the Dao of Heaven", then all this becomes meaningful.

Perhaps, Ning Yongnian is not "cowardly to fight", but is playing a big game of chess.

Now it seems that nothing happened, but the "chess game" has been developing step by step according to his plan.

As for Wei Changtian.
Although he couldn't say that he didn't know anything about it, at best he could only see a cloud of fog.

But what is in this huge fog that covers Daning and Dafeng? He hasn't even been able to glimpse a corner.

"."

"Your Majesty, I hope you can remember your promise."

child time.

Bai Youheng and Ning Yongnian sat facing each other at the chief helm of Longwei located in the Daning Imperial Palace.

"Don't worry, Mr. Bai, this matter concerns the great cause of my Daning, and I will never break my promise."

Ning Yongnian looked at Bai Youheng, and said calmly, "I hope you do the same."

"It's natural."

Bai Youheng nodded, and put a secret letter on the table into his arms: "Your Majesty, do you have anything else you want me to bring to Your Highness the Empress?"

"No more, show her the letter, and she will know what to do."

"it is good."

"."

Take a message to the Queen.
Ning Yongnian and his wife stayed together all day, so how could it be possible for Bai Youheng to be in the middle with words and letters.

Therefore, there is only one explanation——

The queen they talked about was not Daning's queen.

"Your Majesty, since everything is ready, I will set off now."

Standing up, Bai Youheng said in a deep voice, "I'll see you in Yuanzhou City in a month's time."

"Okay, it's a deal."

Ning Yongnian also got up and walked out of the dark room with Bai Youheng.

Outside the house, a whole hundred dragon guards had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw the two coming out, they immediately fell to their knees in unison.

"This subordinate has met the emperor! I have met Mr. Bai!"

"Get up."

Ning Yongnian raised his hands and said slowly: "From now on, you all must obey any orders from Mr. Bai, no matter what it is."

"Do you understand?"

"My subordinate understands!"

"Ah."

Nodding his head, Ning Yongnian didn't speak any more, neither did Bai Youheng.

The latter just slightly arched his hands at Ning Yongnian, then took a step forward and walked into the night without looking back.

"Wow!"

Clothed in black, a hundred dragon guards followed closely behind him without saying a word, like a sharp sword that slashed and disappeared completely from Ning Yongnian's sight after a few breaths of effort.

"emperor."

The figure swayed, and Li Huaizhong, who appeared out of nowhere, suddenly appeared beside Ning Yongnian.

"Old Li, what's the matter?"

Ning Yongnian did not go to see Li Huaizhong, but still looked in the direction where Bai Youheng and the others left.

"Is there any news from Feng Yuan?"

"Go back to the emperor, not yet."

Li Huaizhong shook his head, bent down and whispered in Ning Yongnian's ear:

"It's the dragonfinch that's back."
