The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Chapter 1416 Your Father is Dead

Their identities had already changed drastically, and she could no longer suppress Wan Lianxing with her status as a princess.

After weighing the pros and cons, she recognized the facts and saw the situation clearly. But she still couldn't bear to see the two of them being so harmonious and affectionate.

She was unwilling to be pulled away by Cheng Youning, but she could not resist Cheng Youning's great strength. When she turned around, her eyes were already full of tears, and she looked very pitiful.

After leaving Yangxin Palace and arriving at Cheng Youning's Ningxin Palace, Cheng Youning noticed Princess Zhuoyang's mood changes, "Zhuoyang, did I use too much force and hurt your wound?"

Princess Zhuoyang shook her head, and her sore throat uttered a hoarse voice: "It's been more than a month... The wound has healed long ago!"

"Then why are you crying? Are you missing home?"

"Do I still have a home... wuwuwu..."

"Zhuoyang, the situation in the surrounding countries is tense. Your Dalang colluded with the Southern Yan Kingdom and Yatuo to attack my Fengqi. My Fengqi united with Lingyuan to fight back against Dalang. Although my Fengqi survives in the gap between the two great powers of Dalang and the Southern Yan Kingdom, my Fengqi is not weak. It has only been less than a month, and the enemies attacking my Fengqi have been defeated. My Fengqi's territory has expanded to the surrounding areas again."

Princess Zhuoyang didn't know about this news. Before she committed suicide, she learned from the old housekeeper that her father had broken his promise and colluded with Yatuo, bringing an army of hundreds of thousands to the border of Fengqi. At that time, she was still half-believing and half-doubting. As long as there was no fighting, her father would not be considered to have broken the promise.

When she heard the news today, she was extremely shocked. She seemed to have missed a lot of news after being in a coma for more than 20 days. After waking up, she was in the deep palace, and she was cut off from the news. Except for Cheng Youning, no one was willing to talk to an unknown person.

She gradually came to her senses from the shock. Seeing that Cheng Youning's words did not seem fake, she trembled and said, "You mean that our Dalang and Fengqi have already gone to war... When did this happen?"

"As soon as your wedding army entered Qunyang County, you, Dalang, attacked our Fengqi from the north and east. Fortunately, we Fengqi were prepared in advance, and not only did we not suffer any losses, but we also defeated you, Dalang and Yatuo." At this point, Cheng Youning showed pride on his face.

"Are you telling the truth?"

Cheng Youning said, "Of course, there are news from the border every day in the streets and alleys of Fengqi. Notices are posted all over the streets, and they are all good news. This is called celebrating with the people. Fengqi has been at war for years, but the people are still able to live and work in peace. On the one hand, my grandfather governs the country well and always thinks carefully before taking every step. On the other hand, it is because of the tens of thousands of soldiers on our border who swear to defend our Fengqi territory to the death and continue to expand outward."

Cheng Youning looked at Princess Zhuoyang, who was speechless with her mouth open, and asked, "Are you sad that Dalang was defeated?"

Princess Zhuoyang nodded and shook her head. She didn’t know what she felt at the moment. She just felt sad. She was the culprit who caused Wan Lianxing to rebel. Since then, their Dalang had never had peace. “It’s all my fault… It’s all my fault…”

Princess Zhuoyang muttered to herself, looking somewhat pitiful.

Cheng Youning, who was still able to be friends with her, said, "You should just stay in Fengqi. Dalang will be divided up by Fengqi and Lingyuan Yatuo sooner or later."

"What...what are you talking about? Our Dalang is a century-old country that has gone through twenty-five generations. How could it be divided up?" Princess Zhuoyang found it difficult to accept Cheng Youning's words. She didn't believe that their Dalang would be destroyed. Her father was not old yet, their Dalang's territory was still large, and there were still many people. Although there had been constant wars in recent years, it did not mean that their Dalang would be divided up by the powers.

"Then we'll wait and see. I hope you won't cry then."

"I don't believe it. You must be lying to me. How could a child like you know so much?"

"I am the prince of Fengqi. I attend court every morning. There is nothing I don't know about the important matters of Fengqi. But you are a woman, so you don't need to worry about the country and the people. As long as we men are here, we men will be the ones to sacrifice our lives for you."

"Didn't you say that Dalang and Yatuo are in the same group? Why is Yatuo still coveting Dalang's territory?"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Youning smiled maliciously, and then said something that Princess Zhuoyang could no longer refute: "Because your father is too stupid, forming an alliance with tigers and wolves will definitely backfire!"

His father listened to treacherous ministers and killed people indiscriminately. The wrong things he did were too numerous to list.

At this time, she heard Cheng Youning say: "Wherever the Yatuo soldiers go, the people of Dalang will suffer."

"why?"

"How can Yatuo work for Dalang just for a little benefit? They want more. The day you Dalang colluded with Yatuo, it was definitely not a good thing. It was the beginning of your bad luck. Yatuo is greedy. Their soldiers burned, killed, looted and committed many evil deeds on your land. They plundered the people's property and embezzled the money and grain from the local treasury. Wherever they went, there was devastation. The worst thing is that they are tyrannical and bully men and women and forcibly rob women."

Cheng Youning originally wanted to say a few words to avoid the main point and ask Princess Zhuoyang to live here with peace of mind and not to miss home. However, Princess Zhuoyang kept asking him questions, so he could not help but say a few more words, because Princess Zhuoyang would know about this matter sooner or later, unless Princess Zhuoyang lived in seclusion in a corner and never left the palace for the rest of her life, which was unrealistic. As long as she left the palace, the notices on the streets would explain everything.

Princess Zhuoyang's eyes had turned red. "Should I, Dalang, just let them do evil and oppress the good people on my land?"

"Humph, your soldiers in Dalang are not good people either. They are just imitating others. The people in Yatuo are burning, killing and looting in front, and they are bullying the people in the back. If this kind of thing had not happened in my Fengqi, anyone who dared to do this would have been skinned alive."

Princess Zhuoyang sat down on the bench behind her. She felt cold in her heart. How could Dalang become what he is today? Was it really because of his father's incompetence?

"Youning, please give me paper and pen. I want to write a letter to my father, asking him to drive away Yatuo and make peace with Fengqi."

"Zhuoyang, don't waste your energy. If your words came from the mouth of his favorite minister, they would have some weight. You are a princess who married far away, your words are not important, he will not listen to you, not to mention that the arrow has been shot and there is no turning back. We Fengqi will not leave any chance for Dalang to survive. Don't forget that my Wan family and your father have an irreconcilable feud. Please check your conscience. Can my Wan family's ancestral graves be dug up like this for no reason? In terms of public and private, your father is dead!"
