Chapter 311 Father and son talk
Because he was the crown prince, the heir to the throne, he simply didn't bother to deal with a useless brother.
Even though he also regarded Ning Quan as a thorn in his side.
“Alas, who knows…”
After listening to Ning Gao's story, Ning Yuanwu closed his eyes slightly and sighed.
"But no matter what, you can't go see him. You can't take the risk."
"You are the crown prince, the future ruler of Daqian. If something were to happen, who would take over the Daqian kingdom?"
Ning Yuanwu said with a serious look in his eyes.
"Well, I understand."
Ning Gao lowered his head.
"Well, go ahead. I'm a little tired!"
Ning Yuanwu waved his hand, signaling Ning Gao to leave.
After Ning Gao left, Ning Yuanwu sat up straight with a hint of fatigue on his face.
He has been under too much pressure over the years.
Especially with this unfilial son, it is simply impossible to sleep or eat.
If he had known this would happen, he should have killed Ning Quan instead of being soft-hearted and exiling him.
"Come here, tell Li Junchen to come to the audience."
After a while, Ning Yuanwu took a deep breath and gave the order.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
A respectful voice came from outside the door.
...........
"This old minister greets Your Majesty!"
In the imperial study, Li Junchen bowed and said.
"No gifts!"
"How are you? How are you feeling lately?"
Ning Yuanwu looked at Li Junchen with a complicated expression.
The two of them had been good friends for many years. When they raised the army, Li Junchen also helped them with all his might, and even almost lost his life.
Unfortunately, fate plays tricks on us, and a marriage has led to the current situation.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I have always been in good health and have never been ill."
Li Junchen said with a smile.
"Well, it's good that you're not sick. Unlike me, I won't live for more than a few days!"
Ning Yuanwu sighed softly.
"Your Majesty is blessed by heaven and will surely live a long life."
Upon hearing this, Li Junchen hurriedly spoke.
"Haha, that's all lies!"
Ning Yuanwu shook his head, smiled bitterly, and then turned the subject to the main topic.
"Junchen, I have something I want to ask of you."
Ning Yuanwu spoke.
"Your Majesty, if you have any requests, please give them."
Li Junchen looked up and said respectfully.
"I hope you can contact Ning Quan and ask him if he can let the prince go." Ning Yuanwu said slowly.
"Ah, Your Majesty, spare the prince?"
"What do you mean?"
Li Junchen was shocked when he heard this. He stared at Ning Yuanwu with wide eyes and said in shock.
"You're so smart, don't you understand what I mean?"
Ning Yuanwu stared at Li Junchen in silence for a while, then slowly spoke.
"Your Majesty, you...are you going to protect the Crown Prince? Abandon the other...princes?"
Li Junchen opened his eyes wide again and said in disbelief.
Ning Yuanwu spoke so bluntly, if he still didn't understand, all these years would have been wasted.
But that was why he was shocked.
He knew the conditions Ning Quan had proposed at the beginning, which was to exchange the lives of the crown prince and other princes for the eternal stability of the Daqian regime.
Now...Your Majesty actually agreed?
"That's right, I can't just sit there and watch the Great Qian Empire fall!"
"So...if it's possible, I will do it."
A trace of struggle flashed in Ning Yuanwu's eyes, and then he spoke.
“Your Majesty, you…”
"Hey, I never thought things would come to this point."
Li Junchen opened his mouth, but finally sighed.
When Ning Yuanwu said this, it meant that he had made a decision and would not change it at all.
After all, this concerns the survival of the Daqian country.
Moreover, His Majesty also understands that Daqian is no match for Ning Quan at the moment.
"Junchen, what do you think?"
After a moment, Ning Yuanwu asked.
"Okay, I'm willing to try."
"When I return, I will write to His Majesty the Ninth Prince and try to persuade him!"
Li Junchen took a deep breath and said solemnly.
"Okay, I'll trouble you then!"
Ning Yuanwu said with relief, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, you are too kind. This is all my responsibility!"
Li Junchen bowed, said a few polite words, and then stood up to say goodbye.
After watching Li Junchen leave the imperial study, Ning Yuanwu stood there for a long time, motionless, like a sculpture.
..........
Augustus.
As night falls, the dark sky is dotted with stars, and the silver moon hangs high in the sky, casting a cool light.
In the room, Ning Quan, Li Wanyue and Si Kongruo hugged each other and chatted on the bed after their happy occasion.
"My two ladies, right now, all the noble families are vying to come to Australia. Don't you two have any ideas?"
Ning Quan stroked the hair of the two and smiled softly.
"Hehe, husband, do you mean that we should move our family here as well?"
Sikong Ruohuan asked, blinking her beautiful eyes.
"Yes, that's what I mean. After all, he's one of us. How can we let go of such a good opportunity?"
Ning Quan said with a smile.
"Yes, that's true. I'll go back and tell my father to move the rest of the tribe here."
Hearing this, Sikong Ruohuan smiled slightly.
"Sister, what about you?"
"Well... I'll go back and tell Dad too. Anyway, there are so many people in the old family that there isn't enough land to divide."
Li Wanyue also nodded.
"Haha, that's right."
"You have also seen how vast Australia and America are and how fertile the land is."
"If you take root here, your future prospects will be limitless. By then, both your families will surely prosper!"
Ning Quan hugged the two girls and said with satisfaction.
“Okay! Got it.”
The two girls smiled sweetly.
"Okay, let's not talk about state affairs anymore."
"Let's play something else!"
Ning Quan is on the evil path.
"Oh, my husband, you are annoying."
"Just finished, and now you want this again."
Li Wanyue said coquettishly.
"Hahaha, it's because you are so charming that your husband can't stop!"
.........
Seven days later.
The large ship slowly entered Tamsui Port and docked at the shore.
After expansion, Tamsui Port can now accommodate large ships.
All this was accomplished under Zhou Yu's leadership.
Not only the port, but also the shipyard that Ning Quan is most concerned about has now taken shape.
Large ships of 3,000 dan can be built, and more than ten ships can be launched every year.
In addition to the shipyard, Zhou Yu also established a seaman school to train a large number of crew members and sailors.
Now the navy under Ning Quan's command has truly formed combat effectiveness.
"Your Highness, I am honored to meet you."
Zhou Yu led all his generals to gather at the dock and clasped his fists towards Ning Quan.
"Well, no gifts!"
Ning Quan nodded slightly.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Zhou Yu stood up.
"Let's go back home first."
Ning Quan nodded and walked towards the mansion under the protection of the generals.
"Your Highness, I have something important to report."
After returning to the mansion, Zhou Yu immediately reported
“Oh, what’s that?”
Ning Quan asked with a frown.
"Your Highness, ** sent someone to deliver a letter."
As he spoke, Zhou Yu handed Ning Quan a letter.
"A letter from my father-in-law?"
Ning Quan was shocked when he heard this and quickly took the letter.
After opening the envelope and reading it, Ning Quan's expression gradually changed, and finally he looked thoughtful.
