Chapter 570 Half the fame, wind and snow over thousands of mountains (6)
There are a total of sixty states in Fengning and Ning. Ning Yongnian is allocated thirty-five states, Wei Changtian is allocated fifteen states, and Xu Suisui is allocated ten states.
It was as if they were deciding on a trivial matter. The three of them said a total of less than fifty sentences and used less than a stick of incense to divide the world into three parts using a map.
You must know that this is a real "three-thirds of the world". Each state on the map represents millions, or even tens of millions of people, and a territory of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers.
But the complexity of the entire negotiation is even less than that of an ordinary family separation process.
The reason is undoubtedly closely related to Wei Changtian's "generous concession".
If the latter had not agreed to Ning Yongnian's conditions so casually, but had spent every penny to fight for it, then at least he would have been able to get ten more states than he did now.
But he didn't feel reluctant at all and just agreed.
As for this result...
Strictly speaking, none of the three parties actually suffered a loss. After all, they also shared the Dafeng that originally belonged to Li Qi.
It’s just that Ning Yongnian definitely earned the most.
From being "without a country to return to" to regaining a territory no less than the entire Daning before, the emperor should logically feel satisfied.
But when Wei Changtian said the last words with a smile, a hint of uneasiness suddenly rose in his heart.
"Since I promised to give these thirty-five states to Daning, I will definitely give them to Daning."
"..."
Why did Wei Changtian specifically emphasize "Da Ning"?
Could it be...
His heartbeat seemed to have stopped for a beat, and Ning Yongnian's voice instantly turned cold.
"Wei Changtian, what do you mean?!"
"What do I mean?"
Looking at Ning Yongnian who had noticed something, Wei Changtian's expression did not change at all.
He repeated the sentence with a smile and then ignored Ning Yongnian. Instead, he turned his head to Xu Suisui and asked calmly:
"I've always wanted to ask you."
"Why can't he die?"
...
...
Why can't he die?
It’s obvious who this “he” refers to.
For a moment, the temperature in Lingbo Pavilion seemed to drop below zero in an instant, and the atmosphere became extremely tense.
Ning Yongnian's eyes widened suddenly, and his left hand subconsciously pressed the hilt of the Emperor's Sword, but he did not move rashly.
After all, Wei Changtian's asking this question does not mean that he is going to commit suicide.
In other words, from Ning Yongnian's point of view, even if Wei Changtian wants to take action now, the result will be in vain.
The two Li Huaizhong standing outside the pavilion, the more than 200,000 troops stationed in Huailing City, and the life-saving treasures he carried with him...these are not decorations.
What's more, if Wei Changtian wants to kill him, Xu Suisui will definitely not stand idly by.
With Qin Zhengqiu here, Ning Yongnian didn't believe that Wei Changtian could play any tricks.
Therefore, the reason why Wei Changtian asked this question was most likely because he just wanted to get an answer.
Even Ning Yongnian himself wants to know the answer.
Why can't I die?
You must know that Wei Changtian also has Ning Wenjun who has ascended the throne. If he can really kill him and use other means, then the hundreds of thousands of troops under his command will not necessarily be "loyal to the Lord."
Is it just to reduce internal friction?
Ning Yongnian never fully figured out Xu Suisui's motive for protecting himself, so he temporarily suppressed the anger in his heart, observing Wei Changtian's actions and Xu Suisui's answers.
The latter was stunned for a long time, then frowned and whispered:
"Master Wei, how could you not understand the truth?"
"With a formidable enemy now, Fengning and Fengning can no longer have any internal fighting. Therefore, not only the emperor cannot die, but Li Qi cannot die either."
"That's why I robbed the law field to save Li Qi, and that's why I asked Senior Qin to protect..."
"okay."
Wei Changtian did not finish listening to Xu Suisui's explanation, but suddenly interrupted: "Are you fooling the devil?"
"The Four-Nation Allied Forces are coming this time with two million people. If they really fight, one more Ning Yongnian will not be too many, and one less Ning Yongnian will be a lot."
"From a purely strategic perspective, not having him would even be more conducive to a unified fight against the enemy."
"You should understand this."
"So, I want to hear the truth..."
He leaned forward and closed the distance with Xu Suisui.
Staring at the latter's slightly trembling eyelashes, Wei Changtian's expression became serious for the first time.
"If you don't tell me, then don't blame me for killing him now."
"I'm not kidding you."
"..."
If you don't tell me, I will kill him now.
As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Suisui and Ning Yongnian both trembled.
Reason told them that Wei Changtian was just bluffing, but instinct reminded them of the danger lurking in the darkness.
After looking at each other for a long time with Wei Changtian, Xu Suisui finally did not choose to take a gamble, but gave the answer with difficulty.
"It's not that he can die, it's because of his other identity..."
"Another identity?"
Wei Changtian narrowed his eyes: "Son of Heaven?"
"you!"
Suddenly turning his head to look at Ning Yongnian, who had a confused expression, Xu Suisui's face instantly became frightened and confused.
She didn't know why Wei Changtian said these four words in front of Ning Yongnian without any scruples.
After all, although Ning Yongnian understands that he is special, the specific...
"Yes! It's precisely because he is the son of heaven!"
Biting his lip, Xu Suisui suddenly stopped thinking about these things, and his tone seemed to be indifferent.
"The Son of Heaven will play a great role in the future! So Ning Yongnian cannot die!"
"Otherwise, many people in the two countries of Da Feng and Daning may die!"
"Many people died! Do you understand!!"
"..."
Perhaps because he was too excited, Xu Suisui's way of speaking became "modern" at this time.
But Wei Changtian still looked like that, as if his mood had not fluctuated at all.
"What about Bai Youheng?"
"He is also a son of heaven, why don't you save him?"
"How did I know you would kill him!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xu Suisui widened his eyes and said aggrievedly: "In the novel... in short, if I had known in advance, I would definitely have saved him!"
"Is it?"
Wei Changtian's tone gradually became colder: "They killed three million people in Yuanzhou City, and you still want to save them?"
"..."
Xu Suisui's voice stopped suddenly.
She was no longer as excited as before, and after a long silence, she answered in a low voice with great difficulty:
"But they are sons of heaven. If they die, more people will die in the future."
"I, I can't help it..."
"There's nothing I can do about it."
There was a trace of sarcasm on the corner of Wei Changtian's mouth. Not only was Wei Changtian not moved or hesitant by Xu Suisui's "overall view", but his tone actually became more disdainful.
"How do you know that if they die, Da Feng and Daning will definitely not be able to defend themselves?"
"I......"
Xu Suisui suddenly froze, his throat seemed to be tightened suddenly by an invisible force, but when the words came to his mouth, he could not say anything.
The development of the situation had already begun to deviate from the plot in the book, so of course she was not sure what would happen if Bai Youheng and Ning Yongnian died.
In the final analysis, everything is just her guess.
Xu Suisui had always regarded this speculation as "fact", but it was only now that he discovered...
"You, what are you going to do?"
Looking at Wei Changtian with wide eyes, his breathing became extremely rapid.
She panicked and grabbed Wei Changtian's wrist, but the latter broke away with a slight effort.
"Since you don't know, then don't be so self-righteous."
"Don't you think it's ridiculous to place your hopes on these two people..."
After saying a few words, Wei Changtian no longer looked at Xu Suisui, who was in a daze, but turned to look at Ning Yongnian, who had retreated to the edge of the pavilion.
Although the latter could not fully understand the conversation between the two of them just now, he knew that Wei Changtian had murderous intentions towards him.
Until this moment, Ning Yongnian still didn't believe that Wei Changzhen could really kill him, but his feet were still subconsciously retreating.
Lingbo Pavilion was not big, so he quickly retreated to the tent.
And just when he was about to turn around and run away, their eyes finally met.
"call!"
I don't know when heavy snow started to fall outside the pavilion, dyeing everything a vast white.
The snowflakes are like palms and cannot cover the eyes, and the wind is like a knife cutting through thousands of mountains.
As several black shadows carrying the aura of the second level suddenly appeared around Lingbo Pavilion, the thick tent exploded into countless pieces in a golden light.
"boom!!!"
"Ning Yongnian, I said I would give Daning thirty-five states, but I didn't give it to you."
