Jiang Ning turned to look outside and asked, "Where is Gucheng?"

"Gucheng's illness hasn't healed yet, so I asked him to go back and rest."

"Oh, he's not hurt, is he?"

"No." Li Hongyuan looked at her, "You have been asking Gucheng since you woke up, and you are very concerned about him. Why didn't you ask Gufeng?"

"Gu Feng should have gone back." Jiang Ning shook his head, "I caused him trouble this time. According to the rules of the Shadow Guard, he will definitely be punished."

Li Hongyuan snorted: "As a master, as long as you don't protect yourself, the people around you will naturally be implicated. I hope you can understand this truth."

Jiang Ning's eyes narrowed slightly: "You didn't do anything to Huang Ying and the others, did you?"

"Why should I do anything to them?" Li Hongyuan said quietly, "What you should be concerned about now, besides Gufeng's life and death, is how to explain to Yafei and the Silla Kingdom."

"Should I explain to Yafei? She deceived me with the intention of harming me. Logically speaking, she should feel guilty about me, right?"

"After all, you killed her biological brother."

"Come on, do you think I don't know? They are not born from the same mother at all. Prince Xinhai is the legitimate son of the Princess of Silla, and Princess Ya is just the daughter of the concubine of the King of Silla. They will be sent to Dasheng as a gift to please the royal family. This How much good life can the concubine and princess of Silla have?"

"you mean?"

"I think the relationship between Yafei and her younger brother is not as good as the outside world sees it." Jiang Ning said, "Yafei actually doesn't want to harm me, but she struggled to call me over, but gave up on me. Poisoned. It shows that she was also forced."

"Okay, even if it's like you said, you don't need to pay attention to Yafei. What about the Silla Kingdom?" Li Hongyuan stared at her, "In the past few years, Rouran has been eyeing our border and harassing and robbing our border for a long time. If it weren't for the Silla Kingdom, I'm afraid Rouran has already marched straight in."

"Stop pretending." Jiang Ning yawned, "Don't make it sound like you value Silla more and rely more on them. Even if there is Silla, isn't Rouran still a serious problem for you? Back then, Emperor Gaozu came from Rouran. However, I am afraid that you are also afraid day and night that they will take back the land that was stolen from those barbarians, right?"

Li Hongyuan frowned: "Jiang Ning, be careful what you say!"

"Just tell it honestly, don't beat around the bush." ​​Jiang Ning was a little impatient, "I know you have been dissatisfied with Silla for a long time, and you have long wanted to raise troops to completely eliminate Rouran. Why are you pretending? With your deep character, How could you be so impulsive and cut off Prince Xinhai's finger in the palace? Just like last time, you injured Prince Huai in front of the emperor, both to vent your anger on me and for other reasons."

Li Hongyuan said coldly: "Since you think you know me, tell me, what will I do next?"

"Of course it's to cooperate with my two old men."

"Oh, how do you say this?"

"Provoke Silla, fight with them, and then ask my father and uncle to recommend King Zhao Li You to lead troops to suppress them!"

Li Hongyuan smiled slightly and said: "Are you so sure that your father will help me? The marriage between King Zhao and your sister is a certainty. The fight between King Zhao and I, no matter who wins or loses, has no impact on the Jiang family. There is absolutely no need for the Jiang family to offend King Zhao for me."

Jiang Ning smiled: "No need to ask, of course it's because of true love."
