Chapter 5897: The Germination of Ambition (Part 2)

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 his temper cannot be used by others, and only this prince can tolerate it.

At this time, he looked at the other people on the left and right, who were far away. Only the Wang family father and son were nearby for protection as confidants, but he still came close and said: "Your Highness, I think it is a pity that Ning Shuai is not considered by His Majesty as a candidate for heir apparent."

"Lu Sheng, do you think if Ning Shuai supports me, will I have a chance?" Wei Xiao couldn't help but ask.

"Ning Shuai supports it. Of course you have a chance, but starting from Prince Lin, including Ning Shuai, they will not participate in the war and the heir apparent." Lu Sheng said.

"Yes." Wei Xiao sighed, feeling a little 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's support, there is no hope at all."

"Wang Liang, what do you mean?" Wei Xiao was a little surprised that he would interrupt in such a matter.

Wang Liang smiled bitterly and said: "Your Highness, Mr. Lu and I are both guys that no one wants anywhere else. It's just that there are some things that are different between Mr. Lu and me. Your Highness knows that I am Zhu Shuai's guard. I had to leave because of my injury. In fact,

I had been injured many years ago, but Zhu Shuai wouldn't let me go, so I followed Zhu Shuai for a few more years. Later, this boy in my family grew up, and Zhu Shuai didn't lead the army. In addition, I am indeed older, and the prince is also older.

Big, so I was specifically recommended by Zhu Shuai to His Highness the Crown Prince. However, His Highness saw me like this and didn’t bother, so he sent me back. When Zhu Shuai saw me coming back, he originally wanted to make it clear to the Crown Prince, but

I refused, so His Highness happened to be an adult, so I came to live with His Highness. However, Your Highness not only took in our father and son, but also didn’t care that I was injured. In fact, I didn’t have much strength, so you still let me protect you personally. And now His Highness is faced with this

Opportunity, I originally just wanted to retire, but I really don’t want Your Highness to miss the opportunity."

"You said I have a chance? Are you asking for advice on what to do?" Wei Xiao heard that Wang Liang had such a background, and his heart beat violently. This old warrior who didn't talk much on weekdays and often drank seemed to have completely changed at this time.

personal.

Wang Liang saw Wei Xiao acting like this, so he also said in a deep voice: "That Zhou Chengzhi is very much like his father Zhou Guangyi. When I was young, I fought side by side with Zhou Guangyi, and we are considered old friends. If His Highness starts from his side,

, maybe there will be a chance, and these days, I have become familiar with some people in the army. I know that General Zhou, General Huang, General Che and General Li have a fraternal relationship, and they all respect Ning Shuai as their eldest brother.

, they can be said to have worked together, and General Wei and they also feel like brothers. They first convinced Zhou Chengzhi, and then Ning Shuai."

"Wang Liang, are you sure?" Wei Xiao asked excitedly.

"Seventy percent!" Wang Liang said confidently.

"Okay, if this comes to pass..."

"Your Highness, I am not here for fame and wealth. I have been with His Highness for a long time and know what kind of person you are. If His Highness wants to reward you, I will wait until I succeed. Besides, I am already old, so I hope to have a few glasses of good wine. Please invite me.

My child has some opportunities." Wang Liang patted his son at the end.

"Wang Gan grew up with me and is the person I trust most. I don't need you to tell me, Mr. Wang, that I will naturally reuse him," Wei Xiao promised.

"Okay!" Wang Liang also laughed at this time, as if he got what he wanted.

When the army returned, Wei Xiao remained the same as usual, but he also noticed that Wang Liang went to Zhou Chengzhi's side more often. When Zhou Chengzhi saw Wang Liang, he actually called him "Uncle Wang", and they became much closer.

, but Wang Liang never came to Wei Xiao to say anything after that day, and Wei Xiao did not rush him. Compared to ordinary people, he may have been left out for too long, but he was also much more patient than ordinary people.

After early summer, the army mobilized again, and according to the previous plan, they advanced another seventy or eighty miles and began to build camps.

Building the camp this time was much more troublesome than last year. Dai Guo came out to harass from time to time, and it was very troublesome for the army to resist cavalry attacks. However, Dai Guo was also afraid that the cavalry would travel long distances and be ambushed by the opponent, so under the stalemate,

After midsummer, the camp was built.

With the camp in place, we planned to attack the enemy's camp before autumn. Everything was deployed, and even the army had begun to mobilize. But at this moment, Ning Lin suddenly fell ill.

Ning Lin was a congenital master, and normally he shouldn't have fallen ill, but he did, which surprised Wei Xiao.

Wei Xiao also went to visit immediately, but he didn't see anyone and was blocked out. However, after waiting for a while, definite news came. It turned out that Ning Lin was not really sick, but wanted to

I made a breakthrough in cultivation before setting off for the expedition, but suffered a backlash. It is estimated that it will take two or three months to cultivate.

After knowing the truth, Wei Xiao also went back, but he also noticed that several other generals seemed to have been discussing something with Ning Lin. A day later, Zhou Chengzhi went to Wei Xiao in person to see Wei Xiao.

Naturally, Wei Xiao did not dare to neglect him, but after Zhou Chengzhi saw Wei Xiao, his first sentence was to directly ask: "Your Highness, the general came here just to ask His Highness, does Your Highness have the courage to go to war as deputy commander?"

Wei Xiao was also stunned by these words. After all, he had been here for more than half a year, treating himself as a student and had never made any decisions. Zhou Chengzhi's words really shocked him, but after thinking about it for a moment, he nodded.

Said: "General, you don't need to ask me if I dare. I just want to know if it is necessary. If it is necessary, I will not hesitate to lead the charge!"

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 on an expedition now, and this battle is extremely critical. Although General Huang is commanding, if there is no Ning Shuai, I am worried that morale will be low.

, so if you want to boost morale, the only way is for His Highness to go there in person."

"In that case, it's our duty to do so." Wei Xiao agreed again.

"Okay, Your Highness, come with me to see Ning Shuai." Zhou Chengzhi immediately took Wei Xiao and left.

When Lu Sheng and others saw it, they immediately followed, but in the end they were blocked from the outside. Only Wei Xiao went in and saw Ning Lin.

Ning Lin's face was pale at this time, and Wei Xiao also asked with concern.

Ning Lin forced out a smile and asked: "Your Highness, there is no room for failure in this battle. General Zhou strongly recommends Your Highness. I also know that Your Highness is a good person. However, this battle is not completely certain, so I dare not let Your Highness take risks easily."

"Shuai Ning, I am the deputy commander of the army. As a deputy commander, I am not here to gain military merit. If you only want to gain credit for safety in a war, then that's nothing. Don't worry, Commander Ning." Wei Xiao said firmly.
