Chapter 5897: Ambition Germination (Central)
Lu Sheng has his own problems, but he also has his advantages. For example, when he comes to Wei Xiao, he really regards Wei Xiao as his lord because he understands that others can't use his temper, and only this prince can tolerate it.
At this time, he looked at the others on both sides, with only the Wang family and his son, who were protecting each other as confidants, but he still leaned over and said, "Your Highness, I think it's a pity that Ning Shuai is not regarded as the candidate for the crown prince by His Majesty."
"Lu Sheng, do you think if Ning Shuai supports me, will I have a chance?" Wei Xiao couldn't help asking.
"Ship Ning supports you, of course you have a chance, but starting from Prince Lin, including Ning Shuai, you will not participate in the fight against the throne." Lu Sheng said.
"Yes." Wei Xiao sighed, feeling that he was really helpless.
But at this moment, Wang Liang, who had always been responsible for protecting Wei Xiao, suddenly said: "Your Highness, if you really want Ning Shuai to support you, there is no hope at all."
"Wang Liang, what do you mean?" Wei Xiao was a little surprised that he would actually interrupt such things.
Wang Liang smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, Lord Lu and I are both guys that no one wants elsewhere. But there are some things that I am different from Lord Lu. Your Highness knows that I am Zhu Shuai's guard, and because of the injury, he had to leave. In fact, I was injured many years ago, but Zhu Shuai didn't let me leave, so I followed Zhu Shuai for more years. Later, my boy grew up, Zhu Shuai did not lead troops. In addition, I am indeed old and the prince grew up, so I was specially recommended to the prince's side by Zhu Shuai. Yes, but when Your Highness saw me like this, he did not ask about it, so he returned me back. When Zhu Shuai saw me back, he wanted to explain it clearly to the prince, but I refused. So Your Highness also came to Your Highness to support you. But Your Highness not only took in us father and son, but also didn't care that I had been injured. In fact, I didn't have much strength, so I still let me protect you personally. Now that your Highness encounters such an opportunity, I originally just wanted to support you, but I really don't want Your Highness to miss the opportunity."
"You said I have a chance? I'll ask how to do it?" Wei Xiao's heartbeat was already very thrilling when he heard that Wang Liang had such a history. This old martial artist who doesn't speak much on weekdays and often drinks seemed to have changed his mind at this time.
When Wang Liang saw Wei Xiao like this, he also said in a deep voice: "That Zhou Chengzhi is very similar to his father Zhou Guangyi. When I was young, I fought side by side with Zhou Guangyi, and I am also an old friend. If Your Highness starts from him, there may be a chance. Moreover, these days, I, a kid, have a familiarity with some people in the army. I know that General Zhou, General Huang, General Che and General Li have a sense of friendship, and they all respect Ning Shuai as their elder brother. They can be said to be working together. In addition, General Wei and they are also sympathetic to brothers. First, convince Zhou Chengzhi, and then Ning Shuai."
"Wang Liang, are you sure?" Wei Xiao asked excitedly.
"70%!" Wang Liang said confidently.
"Okay, if this happens..."
"Your Highness, I am not for fame and fortune, but for a long time. I know that your Highness is a human being. If you want to reward him, you will be successful. Moreover, I am old, so I hope to have a few glasses of good wine and invite me as a child to have some opportunities." Wang Liang said at the end and patted his son.
"Wang Gan grew up with me and is the person I trust the most. This does not require Mr. Wang. You said that I will naturally reuse it." Wei Xiao promised.
"Okay!" Wang Liang also laughed at this time, as if he had gotten what he wanted.
When the army returned, Wei Xiao was still the same as usual, but he also noticed that Wang Liang had been to Zhou Chengzhi in person. When Zhou Chengzhi saw Wang Liang, he actually called Uncle Wang. He was really much closer. However, after that day, Wang Liang never came to Wei Xiao to say anything, and Wei Xiao did not urge him. He was much more patient than ordinary people, perhaps because he had been neglected for too long.
After early summer, the army mobilized again and according to the previous plan, it advanced seventy or eighty miles to start building the camp.
This time, the construction of the camp was much more troublesome than last year. Dai Guo came out to harass him from time to time, and it was also troublesome to resist cavalry attacks. However, Dai Guo was also afraid that the cavalry would be ambushed by the other party for a long distance, so he was in a stalemate. After midsummer, the camp was also built.
With the camp, before the autumn, he planned to start attacking the camp built by the enemy, and all deployments were done. Even the army had begun to dispatch, but at this moment, Ning Lin suddenly fell ill.
Ning Lin is a congenital master. Normally, he shouldn't have fallen ill, but he fell ill, which surprised Wei Xiao.
Wei Xiao also visited him immediately, but he did not see anyone and was blocked outside. However, after waiting for a while, there was a clear news that Ning Lin was not really sick, but wanted to break through his cultivation before going to war, but was backfired, and it was estimated that it would take two or three months to cultivate.
After knowing the truth, Wei Xiao also went back, but he also noticed that the other generals seemed to have been discussing something with Ning Lin. A day later, Zhou Chengzhi personally ran to Wei Xiao to see Wei Xiao.
Wei Xiao naturally did not dare to be negligent, but after Zhou Chengzhi saw Wei Xiao, he asked directly: "The Second Highness, the last general came in and just asked His Highness a question, does His Highness have the courage to go on the battle as the deputy commander?"
Wei Xiao was also stunned by this. After all, after coming here for more than half a year, he regarded himself as a student and had never made a decision. Zhou Chengzhi's words really scared him, but after a little thought, he nodded and said, "General, don't ask me if I dare, I just want to know if I need it. If it is necessary, even if I lead the troops to charge, I will do whatever I can!"
Hearing this answer, Zhou Chengzhi was overjoyed and immediately grabbed Wei Xiao's arm and said, "Your Highness, it is really inconvenient for Ning Shuai to go to war now, and this battle is extremely critical. Although General Huang is in command, if Ning Shuai is not in charge, if he is afraid of lack of morale, he wants to boost morale, only His Highness will go there in person."
"Since that's the case, it's unavoidable." Wei Xiao also agreed again.
"Okay, your highness will follow me to see Ning Shuai." Zhou Chengzhi immediately pulled Wei Xiao and left.
When Lu Sheng and others saw it, they followed immediately, but in the end they were blocked outside, only Wei Xiao went in to see Ning Lin.
Ning Lin's face was pale at this time, and Wei Xiao also asked with concern.
Ning Lin forced a smile and asked, "Your Highness, this battle cannot be missed. General Zhou strongly recommends Your Highness. I also know that Your Highness is a human being, but this battle is not very sure, so I dare not let Your Highness take risks easily."
