As far as Emperor Chengming was concerned, as long as Ning Guzhou was not with Tang Miaoxin, everything would be fine.
Whenever he thinks about Ning Guzhou inheriting his throne in the future and his grandson being born from Tang Miaoxin, he feels extremely bad.
He knew Ning Guzhou's temperament quite well. Ning Guzhou was not a womanizer, and the only one who could win his heart was Tang Miaoxin.
Therefore, in the eyes of Emperor Cheng Ming, there was no suspense about Lu Yingxiu being Tang Miaoxin.
Just at this moment, the third prince came over to report on official business.
Emperor Chengming showed him the secret letter directly: "What do you think of this?"
The third prince now serves in the Ministry of Household Affairs. He has a kind-hearted personality and good abilities. In recent years, he has received the support of many officials in the court.
However, Emperor Chengming felt that if Dayan was handed over to the third prince, he would at most be a conservative king and unlikely to make great achievements.
Nowadays, there are many ambitious people among the six countries. If Yan does not have a powerful monarch to guard it, let alone expanding its territory, it will be difficult to protect the country.
After the third prince read the secret letter, his expression was a little complicated.
He said softly: "The talents of my seventh brother are beyond my reach."
When Ning Guzhou was in the capital, they didn't actually have much interaction with each other.
Over the years, Ning Guzhou admired everything he had done no matter what.
Emperor Cheng Ming glanced at him and asked coldly: "This is the only idea you have?"
Seeing that he looked angry, the third prince hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "My son, I am just discussing the matter."
"Among the many princes, I think the seventh brother has the strongest ability."
"It's just that this time, he did something wrong."
Emperor Cheng Ming looked at the third prince with some displeasure in his eyes: "What do you mean by this? It seems that you admire Lao Qi very much?"
The third prince replied: "I'm not admiring him, I'm just telling the truth."
Emperor Cheng Ming frowned slightly and scolded: "You are really an unmotivated person!"
The third prince did not dare to speak.
Emperor Chengming said coldly: "Go down!"
After the third prince stood up, he couldn't help but said: "Father, is the seventh brother really turning against Dayan?"
Previously, after Ning Guzhou supported his own troops in Qinzhou, he basically cut off all contact with Dayan's court and fought several battles with Linyuan.
The third prince always felt that it was just Ning Guzhou losing his temper, and it would be fine if his anger subsides in a few years.
But this time, what Ning Guzhou did in the First City was to truly draw a clear line with Dayan.
Emperor Chengming looked at him and said: "There is no news about Jiang Xiang and Shiyi being plotted by him, and their lives and deaths are uncertain."
"The whereabouts of the smelting technique that he originally obtained is even more unknown. This is not rebellion, but treason!"
The third prince did not dare to say anything more and bowed and retreated.
Emperor Chengming became even more angry when he saw him like this.
Among the sons of Emperor Cheng Ming, the most outstanding one in the capital was the third prince.
It's just that the third prince is too kind-hearted and doesn't have much ambition, so he is definitely not the successor in Emperor Ming's heart.
And if Ning Guzhou is unwilling to return to Dayan to succeed the queen, the most suitable successor is the third prince.
Emperor Cheng Ming felt helpless and blamed Ning Guzhou for being too ignorant and unable to understand his hard work.
After the third prince walked out of the hall, he looked at the clouds on the horizon and let out a long sigh.
In four years, because of the last palace coup, all the princes died, were imprisoned, and were exiled.
Because he was not involved in that incident, he became the biggest beneficiary.
In the past few years, he has gradually won over many people in the government and held real power in his hands.
But he was not happy at all.
As a prince, how could he have no ambition at all?
Of course he also wants to rule the world!
But in his heart, what happened back then left a huge shadow on him.
He saw Emperor Cheng Ming's ruthlessness and Ning Guzhou's determination.
And he seemed cowardly and incompetent in that matter.
Even though many years have passed, he still can't let go.
If one day Ning Guzhou really kills him back to Dayan, I'm afraid no one in Dayan can stop him.
Emperor Chengming was very upset in the palace and said: "The third child is nothing like me!"
"Look at how timid and cowardly he looks, how can I safely leave the world in his hands!"
How could Li Shiying dare to comment on the third prince? He could only persuade Emperor Cheng Ming to calm down.
But for Emperor Cheng Ming, how can such anger be extinguished by just breathing out?
He has always had great ambitions, and even had plans to unify the six countries when he was young. However, because of the palace incident, his energy deteriorated and he was unable to do many things.
Now the south of Dayan was directly swallowed up by Guiqian, but he could only endure it.
At this moment, he was even more angry with Ning Guzhou. Although he was obviously capable, he insisted on going against him for the sake of a woman!
At this time, Ning Guzhou, who was complained by him, was being manipulated by Tang Miaoxin.
After the Philosopher's Stone in the First City was refined, if they could not find a way to produce weapons with the quality blessed by the Philosopher's Stone, they would probably be in danger of destruction.
Tang Miaoxinla has been helping in the smelting workshop in the first city these days. Ning Guzhou and Ning Changping had nothing to do, so they all came over to help.
Tang Miaoxin originally thought that Ning Guzhou's injury was not healed yet and wanted him to rest in the room, but he insisted on following her.
He was injured, and Tang Miaoxin would not ask him to help with the rough and heavy work, so she simply asked him to help with drawings and doing odd jobs.
Ning Guzhou has never been supported by someone in his life, but he still enjoys it.
If Emperor Cheng Ming saw this scene, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood on the spot.
After the last incident, everyone in the First City accepted Ning Guzhou, leaving him busy in the smelting workshop.
After Tang Miaoxin supported him in his work, he soon discovered his benefits:
He has an excellent memory, no matter what is passed in front of him, he can remember it.
He can also give various opinions on various weird and bizarre ratios to improve the craftsmanship.
Su Liancheng originally thought that Ning Guzhou was getting close to Tang Miaoxin under the pretext of running over to help, and he felt a little contempt for him in his heart.
After watching Ning Guzhou's performance for a day, he changed his mind because he found that Ning Guzhou was really powerful.
After the two of them got along for a few days, the relationship between Su Liancheng and Ning Guzhou became much closer, and there was a sense of sympathy for each other.
Everyone in the First City originally had an impression of Ning Guzhou as a martial artist. After this incident, everyone discovered that they had a deep misunderstanding of him.
When Su Yan heard what Su Liancheng said about Ning Guzhou, he didn't quite believe it. After going to the smelting workshop to see Ning Guzhou busy for half an afternoon, he felt mixed.
Such Ning Guzhou is naturally worthy of Tang Miaoxin, but he is also too powerful.
Although Qinzhou is not considered powerful in his eyes, Su Yan feels that with Ning Guzhou here, in a few years, Qinzhou will be surprisingly powerful.
