Ning Prince's Mansion.

"Zhang Zhixiong pays homage to His Highness Ning."

King Ning nodded slightly.

"Get up, no need to be polite."

Zhang Zhixiong did not dare to act rashly, and still knelt on one knee, bowing his body and head without raising it.

"The case of Yingshi is a humble person who misses his duties, so please punish him."

King Ning smiled.

"You are a member of the Demon Hunting Division. Zhang Tianshi is in charge of the Demon Hunting Division. Let's talk about it above, and the father is coming to ask about it. It's not my turn to punish me. Although you are the position of a commander, I can still be clear about this.

Furthermore, Ying's daughter died and Jingzhou Prefecture came to deal with it. Everything was fine according to normal procedures, just a woman.

But I want to know that I have received news from Ying’s report to the capital, and it has been banned for eight or nine days. Moreover, people in the capital and Jingzhou know about it. What do you think is the problem?”

Sweat was already seen on Zhang Zhixiong's forehead.

"Your Highness, I have sent people to investigate and arrested more than a dozen people, but the identities of these people are very well hidden, and it is impossible to find out the person behind the commander for a while."

King Ning picked up the teacup and took a sip, and put it down leisurely.

"I have found some news. Come up and see if this is familiar?"

Zhang Zhixiong stood up and walked to Ning Wang with a tough bullet. Ning Wang opened a wooden box with a stack of letters and the dragon order.

Zhang Zhixiong was stunned. They were in the southern border for many years and had the most contact with the Shadow Guards. Not to mention seeing this thing, they were quite familiar with it.

I picked it up and looked at it, then pinched the dragon order and felt it, then I looked at King Ning with a look of surprise.

"This is the Dragon Order, and it is a very high-level white jade dragon. The person who holds this token can mobilize a general of the Western Zhou imperial guards, that is, nearly 10,000 people. I don't know... I don't know..."

Zhang Zhixiong couldn't ask the rest of his words, and his old face was already red with shame.

If the apology before was polite, then now, I really feel that I deserve to die. He has a lot of people in the southern border, and he thinks he has all the information in his hand, but he didn't expect that King Ning could find this.

If Ying's case is linked to this Dragon Order, then he will really become a decoration. He has been led by the shadow guards for many years, and now he is sent to such a care during the war, and his face is so painful.

Ning Wang smiled. He saw the changes on Zhang Zhixiong's face clearly, exhaled a breath of depression for many years, and pushed the box in front of Zhang Zhixiong.

"Look at it yourself. The chief of the royal palace has brought people to find some details, but you still need to execute it. After all, the Shadow Guard is not something that my own people can catch.

Miss Ying’s seventeenth lady was working for the Yingwei, poisoning her own sister, and then she wanted to enter the palace to assassinate me. The war was about to begin. I must not have anything to do, otherwise the morale of the army would be unstable, and Zhang Duwei understood this principle more than I did."

Zhang Zhixiong carefully looked through the letter paper and was confused, but at the end he saw a piece of paper with some small characters written in which he didn't know what pen to write.

As soon as he saw this, Zhang Zhixiong suddenly realized that this was the message conveyed in the secret letter. It seemed that there were many capable people in the Ning Palace, and such secret letters could be cracked.

After reading all the content, Zhang Zhixiong respectfully put the letter back into the box and placed the dragon order on it.

"Your Highness, it seems that this matter was done by the Shadow Guard. He wants to use the Ying girl to assassinate Your Highness. The Huyi will start investigating it."

Ning Wang shook his head and thought of Zhou Ze in his mind.

The top scholar who is a few years younger than him can make people suddenly understand with a few seemingly casual tips. Such a person is not encountered at any time, but he is really smart and close to the demon.

"If it were just assassination, wouldn't the Shadow Guard be easier? Even the people who caught the Demons had no choice but to treat them for many years, right?"

Zhang Zhixiong's hair was wet at this moment, but he was unable to refute it.

After all, what King Ning said is true. This is what he has been ridiculed by his fellow disciples for many years.

"What does the Yingwei contact the Ying girl? "

"The marriage of Ying's family was decided by the grandfather. The Western Zhou Dynasty wanted to instigate it, and using the Shadow Guard or simply some people used the Shadow Guard's methods to contact Ying's family and let the side princess selected by Ying's family kill me.

If this king dies, it will be an unexpected joy for them. If he does not die, the Ying clan will not escape the misfortune. Then the king will naturally start a massacre at Ying clan. This reputation of betrayal and disobeying the will of his ancestors will be punished.

How do the people of Jingzhou think of this king? Wouldn’t this king become a treacherous villain? Even if we investigate this matter, we will at most find the Shadow Guard. The real mastermind behind the scenes will not be affected at all, and they are the ones who benefit."

Zhang Zhixiong's heart instantly reached his throat.

The two points that King Ning said, no matter which one, the entire southern border will be in chaos. This chaos is not just a battle between princes, but the Western Zhou Dynasty will definitely use this to invade.

Without Ning Wang's Zhennan Army, there would be no cohesion as before. After all, these are all men brought by Ning Guogong. If you want to change someone, it would be absolutely impossible to control it.

In this way, the possibility of breaking the Baisha River in the Western Zhou Dynasty was 50% more likely. If you enter the territory of the Tang Dynasty and take action step by step, the Tang Dynasty would inevitably shrink its northern garrison and support the southern territories. In this way, the three sides of the Tang Dynasty were in danger.

Zhang Zhixiong gasped and his lips were trembling. Such a vicious plan could be said to be too vicious.

Advance can attack and retreat or defend. Even if the mission fails, Ying can still make a profit if he loses it. Thinking about this, it is not difficult for the people behind it to guess.

"Is it the King of Deer and the Queen of the Western Zhou Dynasty instructing this matter?"

King Ning sighed.

"Hey, it seems yes, but unfortunately, I don't have such a person in the Tang Dynasty. However, the chief of the king said that any conspiracy is not up to standard. It is better to attack hard and be upright and openly plot."

Zhang Zhixiong looked at King Ning, and this sentence sounded a little excited.

"Your Highness, what do you need to do in the humble position? You are so instructed that you can put aside the identity of the humble position in the demon hunting department at this moment. I have been in the southern border for seven years and have seen the majesty of the Zhennan Army. I also hope that King Ning can break the dream of the Western Zhou Dynasty in one fell swoop and let them be peaceful for decades."

Ning Wang nodded, stood up and walked to Zhang Zhixiong.

After thinking about it, I raised my right hand and patted Zhang Zhixiong on the shoulder. The strength was not light, but with weight.

"With your words, I will have a clear mind."

Zhang Zhixiong was stunned, but the hands on his shoulders were warm. Zhang Zhixiong felt that he had been so close to King Ning for the first time in the past few years. He was not afraid of the prince, but a bit of trust that he could hand over his back to the other party.

King Ning didn't stop, and then said:

"There is no need to keep the Ying family. The day of war is the time to sacrifice the flag. Everything I gave to Ying family before was the mind of my Tang Dynasty. It is also the determination of my Tang Dynasty to take it back now.

As for the twelve Miss of Ying, I have rescued her. In order not to implicate me, she pretended to be crazy and stupid for several months, which really moved me and would fulfill the order of my grandfather.

But Yuzhu Temple and the man in white robe and masks also hope that Zhang Duwei would send someone to investigate. It doesn’t matter whether they can be caught or not, but they can even be scared and dare not show up.

Of course, if we can dig out a few nails from the Shadow Guard, I will write a memorial to my father and personally ask for you. This will improve the morale of the Zhennan Army. Besides, the Shadow Guard will have to restrain itself, and our defense and plans are safer."

Zhang Zhixiong knelt on one knee and looked up at King Ning. His eyes were slightly wet. This kind of trust and this kind of delegation had never been seen before.

The old emperor thought they were dogs, and he would bite whoever he wanted them to bite. He would let them go, and he would let go, regardless of whether the other party was guilty of great evil or even because of such a bite, he would be implicated for no reason.

Just like his senior brother, the capital was busy dealing with those things, so he insisted on coming to the southern border to receive Princess Anle, and finally died here, with no bones left.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhixiong's eyes became redder and he bowed to Wang Ning and said:

"Thank you for your trust in Your Highness Ning. Huye will do your best to go to the Shadow Guard. As for asking for me, I don't need to ask for me. I have something to ask Your Highness. After all, Huye has no way to contact local officials."

Ning Wang was very happy. Having a request was the best way to control it. It was to hand over his own handle and let him do it, which was also a manifestation of his attitude.

"Oh? Get up quickly, just say anything!"

Zhang Zhixiong took out a piece of paper from his arms, folded and wrinkled, with a few words written on it, and Xu Gongzhu's body was buried in Hejiang.

"I want to help my senior brother collect the body, but there has been something wrong. Hejiang has not been able to do it. I hope your highness will be successful."

When he heard this, King Ning smiled.

"good."
