Quick Wear: The Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Character's Counterattack

Chapter 263: Substitute Secret Guard (6)

“How can this be possible!”

The princess was also angry, "Why didn't you send a general to take care of it?"

"Of course I sent them, but those guys went to negotiate for a short while and stayed there and didn't come back. I don't know what Ning Ning told them! There was a vanguard officer I was very optimistic about and wanted to promote, but now he's gone too!"

"How dare they be so presumptuous! Didn't you question Ning Ning?"

"Ah, Ning Ning has so many twisted ideas. He even said that he was also fighting for the imperial court, so it was all the same. Humph, how can that be the same!"

As he spoke, he slammed the table and stood up, pacing around the study like a trapped beast.

If it weren't for the presence of the princess, there would probably be a few fewer sets of tea sets.

The princess clenched her handkerchief tightly, "Ning Ning is so cunning! Oh, that's not right. I heard you say that his army pays enough. Is it that our army pays insufficient?"

She had never asked about what was happening outside before, and didn't understand these things.

Ning Mu was a little impatient. "Military pay is like this. We are in charge of so many things, so naturally there are many places where money is spent. How can it be paid in full? As long as it is not in arrears, it is good. Who is like Ning Ning, who only knows how to win people's hearts!"

"He has no foundation, so of course he has to win people's hearts. But he openly sabotaged us, so we can't just let it go," the princess said with a sullen face, "Why not report it to the court and severely sue him, and wait for the court to make a decision."

"This one……"

Ning Mu was a little hesitant. After all, the court had demoted his title, and he didn't seem to have any face in the court.

The princess encouraged him, "We are all royal family members after all. Ning Ning is nothing. How can the emperor side with him? Just go ahead and make a report. I will write to a few close friends in the capital and ask their families to speak up for you. The emperor will definitely stand by you. My son, you have only been in charge of the military power for a short time. Now is the time to establish your authority. You can't be soft-hearted."

"You are right. I will submit my petition right away."

Ning Mu made up his mind and after collecting some "evidence", he reported Ning Ning.

As expected, the princess also helped him, and the two of them were busy running around. They thought that this time they would be able to make Ning Ning look bad, but they didn't expect that the emperor did issue an edict, but unfortunately it was an edict to reprimand them.

After all, they have been away from Beijing for too long and have no idea what the current emperor is thinking.

In the Emperor's opinion, your inability to control your subordinates is purely due to your incompetence. Please stop causing trouble for me.

How can I control Ning Ning?

Ning Ning conquered all his territories by himself, and I feel guilty about him!

What if I give an order and he doesn't obey, wouldn't that be even more embarrassing!

Besides, because of the mistakes made before, the emperor did not have a good impression of the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion and wanted to transfer them back to the capital. However, he thought that they had been at the border for many years and were familiar with the generals, so it would be difficult for someone else to take over. Therefore, he did not issue an edict.

Ning Mu, the new Earl of Zhenbei, had not done anything yet, yet he came to him to settle a lawsuit. He was really useless and he was fed up watching him.

As for the princess’ so-called close friends, they were only her close acquaintances. She hadn’t seen them for many years since she got married. How could there be any friendship between them?

Normally, it's no problem for them to send gifts or messages to each other, but when something really happens, no one is willing to take the risk to speak up for her!

Are you kidding? Your family is a Beijing official. If someone suspects that you are colluding with the governor outside, would you still want to be an official?

Ning Mu was even more angry. He never expected that he would be slapped in the face by Ning Ning repeatedly. Even the imperial court was not on his side.

However, he also realized that the imperial court was becoming increasingly powerless to control these military governors.

In this case, why not just send troops to deal with Ning Ning? Not only can we kill Ning to vent our anger, but we can also take over his territory.

Ning Ning was supposed to be his shadow that he couldn't stand in the light of day, but now not only did she appear in the sunlight, but she made him live in Ning Ning's shadow. He really couldn't accept this and could only get rid of her as soon as possible!

He weighed the matter over and over again, and felt that Ning Ning was a new governor after all, and the number of his soldiers was not as many as his. Moreover, Ning Ning had always been fighting against foreigners, so he must not be on guard against "his own people". As long as he sent out a surprise force, he would be able to win!

Thinking of this, he made preparations and directly gave orders to his soldiers to launch a surprise attack on Ning Ning!

He was afraid that his generals would not obey his orders, so he said that he was following the emperor's orders!

After all, he is a member of the royal family, so it is entirely possible that he received the emperor's secret order.

The generals who had not left were still loyal to him. Although they had some doubts in their hearts, they still obeyed orders and led their troops to launch a surprise attack.

Unfortunately, after the fight, Ning Mu discovered that although Ning Ning dealt with foreigners, he did not trust him and had been keeping troops to guard against him.

His surprise attack was blocked, and then Ning Ning personally led the team to attack them. The formations they used were so numerous that he could not contend with them at all.

Soon, he was defeated and tried to retreat back to the city.

Ning Ning's team chased him relentlessly, straight into the city, determined to end the battle with him!

Oh no, Ning Ning has always been petty. She has been his secret guard for many years, going through life and death for him, and being bullied by him. She has long hated him deeply. When encountering such a thing, how could she not take the opportunity to take his life!

He was so frightened that he ordered his most elite subordinates to stop Ning Ning, and he fled in a panic with his personal guards!

There were pursuers behind him and he could no longer ride a horse, so he could only take a carriage.

But the carriage would run slowly when there were too many people on it, and he was so angry that he chased the princess off, "Mother, you are Ning Ning's biological mother, he won't do anything to you, just get off, don't delay my escape!"

The princess held onto the car door and refused to let go. "What are you talking about? If Ning Ning was someone who valued blood ties, she should have been your secret guard. Otherwise, we wouldn't be here today! I've loved you for so many years. You can't leave me to him!"

"Don't mention the pain or not. If you hadn't fanned the flames, I wouldn't have reported him, let alone attacked him. Just stop causing trouble for me!"

He was so anxious that he wanted to push the princess down. The princess struggled and cursed with gritted teeth, "You rebellious son, if I had known this would happen, I should have kept Ning Ning as my son, so that you wouldn't be useless like this!"

These words hit Ning Mu's lungs right in the gut. He gritted his teeth and kicked the princess hard off the carriage!

"what!"

The princess screamed and fell off the carriage. Her head hit a stone on the side of the road, oozing blood, and she fell there motionless.

Ning Mu didn't bother to care about her and just kept urging the driver to go faster!

The princess lost her life in this way, but Ning Mu escaped as he wished and did not fall into Ning Ning's hands.

But when he returned to the capital, he did not have any good results.

The Jiedushi was difficult to control to begin with, and he took the initiative to send troops to provoke Ning Ning. However, he did not have the strength to win, and instead, Ning Ning swallowed up his territory. The emperor hated him for his incompetence, but he could not say that he was right to send troops to attack his own people!

Therefore, he was handed over to the Ministry for discussion and punishment, and then executed according to the law.

As for Ning Ning, I have to issue an imperial decree to appease her, to show that I, the emperor, am still very perceptive. You must continue to serve the court in the future!

Ning Ning watched the situation calm down. How things would develop in the future would depend on the original body's wishes.

He returned his body and left this world.
