After leaving Wu Kangping's dormitory.
Wu Ningyue returned to the lobby with a solemn expression.
What Wukang Ping said to her still kept popping up in her mind, making her breathing gradually become heavier and more unbelievable.
She did not deny the feasibility of Wu Kangping's plan, but it was obviously very risky.
If this matter ends in failure, not only Wu Kangping will be beheaded by his own hands, but he himself will also be implicated and lose his life!
Not only that, but those northern soldiers who were instigated by Wu Kangping to rebel will definitely be picked out by Wu Taiyuan one by one and eliminated without mercy!
It is undoubtedly very selfish of him to do this!
Bet with the lives of so many people that you can get rid of Wu Taiyuan and become the next King of Zhenbei!
Moreover, Wu Ningyue also knew that it was difficult for his younger brother to hold power. If he really became the King of Zhenbei, what would the scene be like in the North?
And at this time.
Wu Taiyuan was still immersed in great joy, and the smile on his lips could not dissipate for a long time.
When he looked at Wu Ningyue, he found a bitter look on her face, as if she was struggling with something.
After being stunned for a moment, he spoke calmly.
"Ningyue, what's the matter? This king is about to take over the military power from Xu Xiao and will be able to completely occupy Beiliang soon. Aren't you happy about this?"
heard his question.
Wu Ningyue came to her senses immediately, then shook her head and smiled bitterly.
"My father can gain military power and take control of Northern Liang. Of course, the child is happy for his father."
Although she said so, there was no joy on her face.
After all, she also knew very well that even if Wu Taiyuan really replaced Xu Xiao as the new King of Northern Liang, she would not get any benefits and would still have to work hard for him!
But at this moment.
Wu Taiyuan looked up at the sky and sighed deeply.
"Ningyue, do you also think that this king is too ruthless?"
Hear this.
Wu Ningyue was stunned for a moment.
She couldn't figure out why Wu Taiyuan asked this question. Was he aware of what Wu Kangping was going to do next?
A strong doubt surged into her heart, causing Wu Ningyue's breathing to gradually become rapid.
But she still shook her head and said slowly.
"Everything my father does is for the sake of the Wu family. Being ruthless is something every person in power must learn."
Wu Taiyuan laughed, and then said lightly.
"It's best if you have this awareness."
"I have already thought about it. After Beiliang is captured, I will make you the new King of Beiliang."
Hear this.
Wu Ningyue's pupils widened slightly in disbelief.
"Let me...become the new King of Northern Liang?"
She originally thought that Wu Taiyuan would become the new King of Beiliang after he occupied Beiliang, but she didn't expect that he actually planned to put her in charge of Beiliang?
Look at her surprised look.
Wu Taiyuan nodded and immediately explained.
"You have been a strategist since you were a child, and your martial arts talent is also extremely amazing. In a few years, you may have the opportunity to step into the realm of Guanhai."
"I am old and have no intention of managing so many things, but I don't want to hand over Beiliang to others, so I have no choice but to let you take over Beiliang."
Wu Ningyue's face was still full of shock.
Her eyes were focused on Wu Taiyuan's face, but she couldn't tell whether these words were truth or lies.
But judging from her years of understanding of Wu Taiyuan, she would probably become one of his pawns again!
Even if she really becomes the new King of Northern Liang, she can only be his puppet!
After hesitating for a moment, Wu Ningyue frowned and couldn't help but ask.
"What about... Kang Ping?"
She wanted to know whether Wu Taiyuan still had feelings for Wu Kangping, and whether he really wanted to put him to death!
Facing Wu Ningyue’s question.
Wu Taiyuan's expression suddenly changed, his eyes gradually became cold, and then he responded without hesitation.
"That trash can't make a difference, and returning to the north will only cause trouble for me!"
"After we seize the military power from Xu Xiao, let him stay in Beiliang forever."
Wu Ningyue could tell from his tone that he had indeed had murderous intentions towards Wu Kangping!
But when she was about to say something.
A northern general wearing armor rushed forward in a hurry.
He was sweating profusely, looking panicked, and his body seemed to be shaking slightly.
Seeing the arrival of this northern general.
Wu Taiyuan asked coldly.
"Why are you so panicked? Have the armies of the three states arrived outside Beiliang City?"
The northern general shook his head desperately. He seemed to be too anxious and was so confused that he didn't know how to organize his words.
He took a big breath and then hurriedly reported.
"Qi... Qi, please report to your lord, the armies of the three states have not yet arrived outside Beiliang City."
"But the spy came to report that he found countless corpses that were burned black by the fire on Fuhu Mountain on the boundary between Quanzhou and Beiliang!"
"Although it is difficult to tell who they are just by their appearance, judging from the marching route of the Three States Army, they must pass through Fuhu Mountain! In other words, those corpses... are most likely from the Three States "Sir!"
Hear the words he speaks.
Wu Taiyuan's pupils suddenly widened, and he froze on the spot.
"You...what did you say!"
"All the armies of the three states are dead?!"
He couldn't believe that all 60,000 soldiers and horses from the three states died tragically on Fuhu Mountain overnight!
For a moment, a murderous intent flashed across his eyes, he clenched his fists and said viciously.
"Xu Xiao! You are so brave! How dare you massacre 60,000 soldiers from three states?!"
The armies from the three states came to Beiliang, which was extremely detrimental to Xu Xiao.
Therefore, he knew without thinking that Xu Xiao definitely did this!
However.
The northern general shook his head and said timidly.
"Your Majesty, when those corpses were discovered, the spies had already searched the entire mountain."
"But they couldn't find any traces of the Beiliang Army, and not even a single weapon was left behind!"
"Therefore...it is difficult for the prince to convict Xu Xiao..."
Hear this.
Wu Taiyuan was even more furious!
Suddenly, he thought of something again, and a cruel look flashed in his eyes.
"Except for Ningyue and you, I have never mentioned this matter to anyone. Even the time when the soldiers from the three states came to Beiliang was extremely secretive!"
"But Xu Xiao can clearly understand the marching route of the soldiers from the three states. One of the two of you must be Xu Xiao's mole!"
His face was full of anger, and he glared viciously at the northern general in front of him.
Wu Ningyue is his eldest daughter, so he will naturally not doubt her.
When the northern general realized that Wu Taiyuan was suspicious of him, he was stunned and quickly responded respectfully.
"I will always be loyal to the prince and will never betray him!"
Wu Taiyuan said through gritted teeth.
"Who else could it be but you? Do you want me to doubt my daughter?!"
at this time.
Wu Kangping, wearing a luxurious purple robe, walked in slowly, with a smile on his lips.
"Father, there is no need to embarrass General Lin anymore. The marching route of the three-state army was told to Xu Xiao by the child."
