Chapter 212 Good Luck
Jiang Nian saw Yi riding his horse back to the city from a distance, and picked up the binoculars in his hand again.

After putting down the binoculars, he said to Ning Yuezhao, "Xiao Jingtian is back."

Ning Yuezhao looked at Jiang Nian firmly, and said firmly: "This time, the Northwest Army mutinied, but did you intend to condone it?"

Yan Mo is now a senior lieutenant general in the army, and has won the trust of Xiao Jingtian.Even if someone listened to those rumors, as long as Yan Mo stood up and raised his arms, the Northwest Army would not be in trouble.

Based on Ning Yuezhao's understanding of Jiang Nian, he would never let go of any chance to pick his opponent.Looking at the situation in front of us, the Northwest Army has made such a mess, and its reputation has suffered first, not to mention that there is something wrong with itself now.Unless they go all the way to the black rebellion, it is Ren Tian's family who will be flattened and rounded now.

Jiang Nian smiled slightly, "Why are you so smart, I can't hide any of my tricks from you."

Ning Yuezhao glanced at him, "I found that you are not as courageous as usual, aren't you afraid that Xiao Jingtian will take the opportunity to turn against you?"

Jiang Nian looked at the figure that was getting closer and said with a smile: "Before I left the palace just now, I had ordered people to surround the general's mansion, if he made any changes, he would first arrest his mother and Yue's family and hang them on the tower. "

Ning Yuezhao looked at the handsome smiling man in front of her, but the words that came out of his mouth were as cold as ice.

Looking back, Jiang Nian happened to see her silent appearance in his eyes, and he stretched out his hand to hold her hand, "Why? Think I'm too cruel?"

Ning Yuezhao shook her head, didn't speak, but gently shook his hand back.

He is gentle on the outside, firm on the inside, decisive in killing and attacking without hesitation, maybe the empress had taken a fancy to him at the beginning, and it just made up for the soft side of his temperament.

Jiang Nian had already read what she was thinking from her expression, and the smile on her face deepened.

At this time, Xiao Jingtian had already rode his horse to the gate of the city, and he was holding the rein tightly in his hand.

Just now when he came galloping on horseback, he had already seen two figures in red clothes like fire and in green clothes like bamboo on the wall.

The conflict had subsided, and the soldiers guarding the city gate saw that it was him, so they went up to the tower to ask for instructions——

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, General Xiao has already arrived outside the city gate, do you want to let him in?"

Ning Yuezhao waved her hand, "Let him in. Now that the fight is over, we will resume going in and out of the city tomorrow."

"Yes."

The soldier quickly stepped down from the tower, and after a while, Xiao Jingtian slowly climbed up to the top of the tower.

Jiang Nian and Ning Yuezhao clasped their fingers, but turned sideways to look in the direction Xiao Jingtian was coming from.

With a livid face, Xiao Jingtian walked up to the two of them and knelt down on one knee.

"Today's mutiny of the Northwest Army, all the culprits are solely responsible for the crimes. Please forgive me, Your Majesty, and don't blame those innocent soldiers!"

Ning Yuezhao sneered, "How can I be so virtuous, the Northwest Army only has eyes for you, a great general, and I, a ruthless and stupid king, have they ever put them in their eyes."

Xiao Jingtian gritted his teeth, and knelt down on the other knee, "The soldiers of the Northwest Army are upright. They think so because the commander of the criminal minister has never seen the king, which makes them have such absurd thoughts. Your Majesty wants Punish, punish the criminal minister, the chief culprit!"

The smile on Ning Yuezhao's face became colder by three points, "How dare I punish you, the Northwest Army will probably level the imperial city!"

"No!" Xiao Jingtian said with certainty. He took out his clothes from his pocket and raised his hands above his head, "Here is the soldier talisman. From now on, the Northwest Army will be dispatched by His Majesty! They are His Majesty's personal soldiers just like the Forbidden Army! "

It's a good move to retreat and give up the military power. From now on, the Northwest Army will at least be the emperor's personal soldiers in name. If she orders these soldiers today, it will be tantamount to breaking her arms.

But the military power entrusted to him cannot be handed over to others.

"People in the Northwest Army only recognize you and don't agree with me. Even if I get back the soldier talisman, I can't order them. It's no pity to kill them."

Xiao Jingtian raised his eyes to look at her, as if he had made a huge determination, "I swear in the name of the loyalty of the Xiao family, I swear to be loyal to Your Majesty to the death!"

Ning Yuezhao glanced at Jiang Nian, only to see Jiang Nian nodded slightly.She let go of the hand she held with Jiang Nian, walked up to Xiao Jingtian, and drew out the soft sword at her waist.

The sword light was cold, causing Xiao Jingtian to close his eyes.

Hearing the sound of metal colliding in his ears, the hands holding the tiger talisman were suddenly pressed, and the tiger talisman had been split into two halves by the Dragon Shadow Sword.

Xiao Jingtian opened his eyes and looked at his hands in astonishment, each holding half of the Tiger Talisman.

Ning Yuezhao drew back her sword, took away a piece of tiger talisman, and said with a snort, "I will take back half of your military power."

From now on, Xiao Jingtian will no longer be able to mobilize the Northwest Army at will without holy will.

Xiao Jingtian clenched half of the Tiger Talisman tightly in his hand, the newly cut fracture made his palm ache.The people of the Northwest Army went through life and death with him, and he was the only one in their eyes.This half of the soldier talisman is not so much restraint, but Ning Yuezhao's trust in him.

He solemnly kowtowed to Ning Yuezhao, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

In the past, he had never had an empress in his eyes, let alone respect.Doing this Jishou ceremony now shows your loyalty to the emperor.

Ning Yuezhao sighed softly, "Get up, now is the perfect time, there can be no more civil strife."

Xiao Jingtian stood up with a gloomy expression, and he said: "Luo Feng went to the northwest to instigate a group of soldiers to go north in the name of saving my minister. I originally wanted Vice General Yan to lead the 5 troops to stop him, but the newly made There is something wrong with the summer robes, and the soldiers are all itchy and have terrible rashes, I am afraid that it will be difficult to travel a long distance in the past two days, and I am afraid that if you delay, more accidents will happen."

"Then what's Xiao Qing's plan?" Ning Yuezhao saw that he was hesitant to speak, and thought he had a countermeasure, but he didn't know what he was afraid of, so he didn't dare to say it all at once.

Xiao Jingtian took a deep breath, "I would like to ask His Majesty to send [-] imperial troops to the south to stop Luo Feng!"

The [-] forbidden army is the life-saving talisman of the grandparents of the Ning family. Since the founding of the country, there has been no precedent for the forbidden army to leave Gyeonggi.Although Xiao Jingtian had already presented half of the soldier talismans at this time, the [-] northwest soldiers were not like the royal guards after all.How could he know that this wasn't Xiao Jingtian's conspiracy, deliberately retreating to gain Ning Yuezhao's trust by offering military power, and then dividing half of the forbidden army to weaken her strength?In addition, the strength of the Forbidden Army was already weaker than that of the Northwest Army, and it was able to suppress the Northwest Army today, mostly due to a problem with the summer robes of the Northwest Army.

Ning Yuezhao fell silent, but it was Jiang Nian who suddenly said, "Let Vice General Yan of the Northwest Army lead the team and lead [-] forbidden troops southward to stop Luo Feng."

"Thirty thousand?" Xiao Jingtian frowned, "Is it less?"

The strength of the forbidden army is there, [-] against [-] forbidden army, obviously hitting a stone with an egg.

Jiang Nian firmly said: "Enough."

If there are more, if the capital changes, the situation will be out of control.

Xiao Jingtian didn't say any more, just nodded, "I will ask Yan Mo to come to His Highness later, and wait for your order."

Jiang Nian nodded, as if remembering something, said: "General Xiao, if I remember correctly, you go back to the imperial capital, and the remaining troops in the northwest will be in charge of Dragon and Tiger General Ji Xuan, right?"

Xiao Jingtian saw Jiang Nian's composed look, and thought of that day by the pool, in that critical situation, Ning Yuezhao still hugged him tightly, and later put down his emperor figure, kissed him in front of his sick bed. Serve soup and medicine.Xiao Jingtian felt as if his heart was being pulled by something, and he was indescribably uncomfortable.

Jiang Nian saw Xiao Jingtian's expression changed several times, he smiled lightly and remained silent.

Xiao Jingtian found Jiang Nian's smile very unpleasant. His eyes fell on Jiang Nian's right hand that had been quietly hanging by his side, and he thought of those rumors that Jiang Nian's right arm was useless.

Just like at that time, he had already been abolished as the imperial concubine, but he was still able to appear in the Ascending Dragon Hall majestically, and negotiated terms with him condescendingly, with the majesty of the heavenly family in every gesture.

Why is he always able to maintain his glory when he should be embarrassed?
In an instant, various thoughts flashed through Xiao Jingtian's mind, and in the end, he just nodded.

Jiang Nian said clearly: "Ji Xuan seems to be a few years older than you, and he also came from a military family, but he is not as lucky as you, he can inherit the position of first-rank Jianwei general."

General Longhu is the first rank in Daxing, only one shoulder lower than Xiao Jingtian's official rank.But this shoulder gap is a gap that no one else can cross until they die.Who let the Xiao family have the will of the Taizu to inherit the position of first-rank general?

So as long as Xiao Jingtian is alive, others will always be under him.

Xiao Jingtian said with a bit of displeasure: "Good luck? The emperor's words are too light, right? I joined the military camp at the age of 12, and my current position is all about risking my life on the battlefield, sweating and spilling blood In exchange! If you are lucky, no one in the world can compare to the emperor's wife."

The truly lucky person is you, Jiang Nian, who came from a famous family, had a smooth career, and even won the love of the most respected woman in the world!
Jiang Nian smiled faintly, "General Xiao is indignant because you know how much you have paid for this position, but others may not see it, or they may not be willing to see it, but wishful thinking to attribute other people's success to good luck."

He occupies a high position below one person and above ten thousand people, but who knows how many people are staring at the phoenix seat he is sitting on, trying to pull him down?
The extremely high position is certainly beautiful, but who can see the shadow of swords and swords in the dark?It would not be an exaggeration to say that every step he walked along was startling.

However, fortunately, she was with her.The corner of Jiang Nian's lips curled up, and the eyes that looked at Ning Yuezhao were instantly gentle.

Ning Yuezhao didn't know why he suddenly looked at her with burning eyes, but she still nodded slightly in response to him.

Xiao Jingtian coughed heavily, interrupting the exchange of glances between the two, he clenched his fists and said, "I understand Ji Xuan's behavior, he is not this kind of person!"

Jiang Nian was not in a hurry to refute him, but just said indifferently: "Luo Feng calculated the military budget for you this time, and he also checked the military expenditure. What do you say if there is something wrong with the newly made summer robe? Your Majesty desperately reduced it. The purpose of spending in the palace is to help the soldiers keep a little more military pay, but how do you repay His Majesty for your good intentions?"

Xiao Jingtian was dumbfounded for a moment, and when he looked sideways at Ning Yuezhao, he unconsciously felt a little ashamed.

He clenched his fists, "This matter, I will definitely give an explanation to His Majesty and the imperial husband!"
