I'm the villain in the book

Chapter 563 The Great Enemy Appears
The new wind howled outside the desert all night. They blew up gravel, covered the moonlight, and wandered around the Tengu Army company camp, leaving only boundless darkness and desolation.

And when the rising sun in the east pierced through the dense fog in the morning light, Li Wutong left.

Standing in the cold all night, but finally chose to leave at dawn.

No one knows where she went. Even if Wei Changtian wants to find out, it is actually very easy.

But as he said with Li Wutong last night.

I don't owe you, and you don't owe me.

No need to feel guilty, let alone tell me where you're going.

From now on we will be strangers, just go our separate ways
"Young master, Princess Wuping has left."

In the main tent, Zhang San's voice was a bit complicated: "According to your order, I never sent anyone to follow."

"Ah."

Wei Changtian nodded with a tired expression.

He seemed to hesitate to speak, and after a pause, he asked softly:

"Did she leave any words?"

"No."

Zhang San lowered his head, deliberately not looking into Wei Changtian's eyes: "The princess stood not far from the barracks all night last night, and then rode eastward at dawn."

"The princess never said a word from the beginning to the end."

"."

"Is it?"

Standing up, Wei Changtian took a light breath.

He walked out of the tent slowly, and the fresh air in the morning was vaguely mixed with the original smell unique to monsters.

The eastern morning glow is all over the sky, like a huge colorful yarn spread on the boundless yellow sand.

Huailing City in the distance is noisy, with the sound of morning food drums echoing.

Suddenly, Wei Changtian seemed to hear a gentle voice amidst the drumbeat.

"Sir, don't read"

"."

His body trembled slightly, but he didn't look for the source of the sound.

Or it could be said that Wei Changtian actually knew in his heart that all this was just his own illusion.

In the floating world, there are many gatherings and dispersals, and the mountains are long and the rivers are far away.

Wei Changtian has never regretted his decision, but his mood at this moment is a bit hard to describe.

Well, that's all.

His eyes fell on the rose-red morning sun in the sky, and if he only looked at the color, he couldn't tell whether it was dawn or dusk for a moment.

Standing in place for a while, he stepped forward in the soft morning glow.

Wei Changtian faced the light, and his shadow was stretched very long.

In the first year of Taichu, the ninth day of November.

After one night, all the things that happened in Huailing City yesterday have been heard by the major forces.

First, Qin Zhengqiu and Hui'an robbed the court to save Li Qi.

Then came the exchange of hostages outside the city.

Because of Wei Changtian's "dishonesty", a big battle is imminent.

But at the critical moment, Qin Zhengqiu suddenly appeared again and stopped the fight with a single sword.

In the end, Li Wutong died of poisoning that night.
Except for the truth of the last thing that has yet to be verified, countless people have witnessed the other things, so it is natural that it is true and cannot be true.

Two second-rank masters died all at once, and Li Qi was rescued. From this point of view, Ning Yongnian undoubtedly lost blood, and Wei Changtian made blood.

However, due to Qin Zhengqiu's second appearance after leaving and returning, everyone understood one thing——

This quasi-first-rank expert is actually not in the same group as Wei Changtian.

Few people knew about this matter before, but now it is known to everyone.

For Ning Yongnian, this is considered a "lucky thing among misfortunes", and the pressure he faces is suddenly much less.

But it's not that he doesn't need to guard against the threat from Qin Zhengqiu.

After all, what the latter said yesterday was "Ning Yongnian cannot die for the time being".

Can't die yet.

This sentence undoubtedly means that after a certain matter is resolved, he can die.

So what is this matter?
Who is standing behind Qin Zhengqiu and Hui'an?

Ning Yongnian didn't know about this, but he knew that this person would definitely find him in the near future.

After all, since he couldn't die for the time being, he must be able to play an irreplaceable role in solving "that matter".

Before that, that person was both his enemy and his friend.

Two more days passed.

On the one hand, Ning Yongnian wanted to wait for Xu Suisui to show up, on the other hand, he was also a little afraid of the Tiangou army outside the city, so he stayed put and did not move.

And Wei Changtian was so happy.

No matter when Xu Suisui made the next move, the purpose of his visit to Huailing this time was to delay Ning Yongnian's return to Daning.

Since the latter is not moving now, he will certainly not move either.

Use it up, anyway, the more you procrastinate, the better for yourself.

Just like that, you don't move and I don't move, the situation in Huailing unexpectedly fell into a delicate balance because of Qin Zhengqiu's two appearances.

But Daning's side is not so peaceful.

Wei Xianzhi did not have the painstaking efforts of his son in vain, and finally completed all the preparations for the "enthronement ceremony" on November [-]th, the day of the previous life shopping festival, and pushed Ning Wenjun onto the dragon chair in one fell swoop.

Regardless of whether Ning Yongnian can regain the throne in the future, at least from today onwards Ning Wenjun will be the emperor in the legal sense of Daning.

Under the threat of Yingfengsheng's "stable grain prices," twenty-eight of the thirty-six prefectures in Daning explicitly recognized the "legality" of Ning Wenjun's ascension to the throne, including even though they still belonged to Daning in name, but actually Shuzhou and Yangzhou, which have been split off in the upper reaches.

As for the eight state capitals that did not express their views.
Obviously, no matter what the reason was, they were determined to side with Ning Yongnian.

And there is the next target on the route of the "Eastern Expedition" of the Shu Kingdom, Cangzhou, which is adjacent to Yangzhou.

Cangzhou is Ning Yongnian's "hard-core state", not only the queen's hometown, but also the base camp of Gu Zisheng, the minister of punishment who was slapped to death by Wei Xianzhi.

Although the Gu family is not comparable to the Liu and Xu families before they were wiped out, they are still a first-class family that has taken root in Cangzhou for hundreds of years.

Although Gu Zisheng and his family members in the capital are all dead now, there are still many members of the Gu family in Cangzhou.

It is certainly impossible for them to admit that Ning Wenjun, who is clearly a puppet of the Wei family, is already ready to fight to the end, and only waits for the Shu army to come to attack.

However, Ning Yuke didn't manage Cangzhou at all. Instead, she personally led the army to go north to Anzhou, and then surrounded Jiunan County, besieging all the remnants of the [-] Shuzhou War in the city.

From the fourth day of November, peace talks were held in Huailing City.

On November [-]th, Ning Wenjun ascended the throne.

In just eight days, many unprecedented events took place in Daning and Dafeng. It is no exaggeration to say that the world has been turned upside down.

Especially Daning, it seems that since the "Liu-Wei Controversy" has never stopped.

Controversy between Liu and Wei, Jizhou Rebellion, Spring Dragon Rebellion, Fengning National War, Yuanzhou City Tragedy, Ning Yuke's Ascension to King, Shuzhou War, Grain Market Chaos, Ning Wenjun's usurpation of the throne
In less than two years, not only was there only one family left among the three "Liu Wei Xu" families, but even the emperor had changed.

In such a situation, no matter how strong the family background is, it is not enough to toss, so Daning's national strength has already been extremely weak.

Not to mention Dafeng, who was on the verge of subjugation.

so.
The sky cannot be violated, and the time cannot be lost.

You must know that the truth of "taking his life while he is sick" is understood not only by Li Qi, who launched the Fengning National War, but also by Ning Yongnian, who designed the massacre to serve [-] elites.
Just like the emperor with the ambition of "unifying the world" is not just the two of them.
