Chapter 766: Wanting to kidnap him with fatherly love
The first city was adjacent to Qi State, but there was a fast-flowing Galloping River between them, so there was no way to attack it.
Therefore, the destruction of Qi requires long-term planning and cannot be rushed.
At this moment, Jiang Xiang walked up to the two of them.
He looked Tang Miaoxin up and down and said, "The princess looks very familiar. Have we met before?"
One night was enough for Prime Minister Jiang to fully understand the ins and outs of yesterday's incident.
Tang Miaoxin rolled her eyes at him rudely: "You're old enough to just imitate other people's methods of striking up conversations, but your methods are still so old-fashioned."
After she finished speaking, she added: "How disrespectful!"
Jiang Xiang: "..."
Tang Miaoxin hummed softly, held an umbrella and left.
She felt a little regretful. Yesterday, Leng Zhi and Jiang Xiang faced each other. Not only did Leng Zhi not kill Jiang Xiang, but he almost killed himself.
The abilities of these two scourges are immediately obvious, and Prime Minister Jiang is the real ruthless character.
Ning Guzhou was about to leave with her, but Jiang Xiang stopped him: "The Emperor misses His Highness King Qin very much."
"Before I leave this time, the emperor asked me to see His Highness and leave this to you."
Jiang Xiang took out an already mottled red ball from his sleeve. There were many tiny holes on the ball. It was an exquisite ball.
Ning Guzhou had always had a photographic memory, so he naturally remembered this ball.
He was still young at that time, and Emperor Cheng Ming had not yet ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.
For a period of time, he was particularly fond of exquisite balls, so Emperor Cheng Ming personally made an exquisite ball for him.
The exquisite ball looks simple, but is very complicated to make. It is made of 7749 pieces of wood.
After being put together, the round holes inside are connected in two pairs and are very tortuous. It is not easy to find the corresponding round holes.
Ning Guzhou liked this exquisite ball very much, and Emperor Cheng Ming often played with him.
That memory was the only warmth in his childhood and the only time he felt fatherly love.
Later, Emperor Cheng Ming killed the regent and the young emperor and ascended the throne as emperor. In order to stabilize the throne, he made various calculations and ignored their mother and son.
That exquisite ball also disappeared in the accident that year.
Ning Guzhou spent a lot of effort looking for it, but failed to find it.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, it would be delivered to him through the hands of Prime Minister Jiang.
After seeing his appearance, Jiang Xiang said softly: "Before I left the capital, the emperor asked me to bring a message to His Highness."
When he said this, his tone changed slightly, and he said in the tone of Emperor Cheng Ming: "The death of my concubine was not what I wanted. I have been suffering day and night for these years, hoping that you can return to the capital and inherit the throne."
Ning Guzhou looked at the mottled exquisite ball in his hand, his long eyelashes slightly covered and his eyes half closed.
Seeing that his expression was slightly relaxed, Jiang Xiang sighed softly: "Among the many princes, the emperor's treatment of His Highness has always been different from other princes."
"Maybe his previous methods were a little extreme, but his starting point was good."
"Please, Your Highness, understand that he is in a dilemma as a king and a father."
"Nowadays, the situation in the six countries and one city is subtle but turbulent. What Yan wants is not a king who maintains the status quo, but a king who opens up the territory and splits the land."
"Among the many princes, no one is more suitable than His Highness."
Ning Guyzhou didn't say anything, he just stretched out his hand and gently turned the exquisite ball in his hand.
He raised his eyes slightly when Jiang Xiang finished speaking, and looked directly at Jiang Xiang with a pair of cold black eyes: "Is this king stupid?"
Jiang Xiang was slightly stunned, and Ning Guzhou sneered: "Or maybe you think that I have always longed for family affection, so you have to play the emotional card with me?"
Jiang Xiang's eyes moved slightly, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
