Since he was going to pretend to be Fang Yanjun, Ming Xi naturally had to thoroughly understand the Fang Family. This Fang Rusheng was coincidentally the person he had been investigating these past two days.
The Fang Family had many branches, the most famous being the main family in Qinghe City. The others relied on the reputation of the main family to travel outside. Only Fang Rusheng's branch of the Dark North Kingdom could actually form his own clan in the Dark North Kingdom. To be able to become the Prime Minister of the Dark North Kingdom was definitely not achieved by relying on the Fang Family's reputation.
This Fang Rusheng … was definitely not simple.
Ming Xi did not believe that he had met Fang Yanjun. Fang Yunsong did not seem to have much of a good impression of Fang Rusheng.
So, how could Fang Rusheng have met Fang Yanjun?
Fang Rusheng suspected Ming Xi's identity, but he had no proof. He wanted to test Ming Xi and force him to reveal a flaw, but he did not expect Ming Xi to have no flaws at all. Now, he did not know if this youth was the real Fang Yanjun.
He and Ming Xi exchanged a few polite words, and everyone sat down to drink and chat. Unknowingly, half a day had passed. Ming Xi left, and Teng Ye did not keep him. After watching them leave, he went to the study with Fang Rusheng.
In the study, there was a tall figure waiting for them.
After Ming Xi left the garrison mansion, he gave Fire Phoenix a look. The two let Xu Jinbei leave first, and he, Fire Phoenix, and Shang'er alighted midway.
"What do you want to do?" Fire Phoenix asked Ming Xi in a low voice.
"I want to know who Fang Rusheng came with." Ming Xi said in a low voice.
Fire Phoenix was stunned, "How do you know he came with someone else?"
"I don't know, so I want to see." Ming Xi looked at Shang'er, "You said that our spiritual energy might be discovered in front of the Emperor. If he is with you, will he be discovered?"
"No, we are True Dragons." Shang'er said.
Ming Xi nodded, "That's good. Let's go to the garrison mansion."
In the study, Teng Ye bowed to the tall figure with his back facing him, "Greetings to the Emperor."
The man slowly turned around, his deep and tough facial features revealed a gloomy aura. He was none other than the Emperor of the Dark North Kingdom, Beitang Yu. "Is it really Fang Yanjun?"
Teng Ye looked at Fang Rusheng. He could confirm that the youth was Fang Yanjun, but he didn't know if Fang Rusheng had any suspicions. "What does Lord Fang think?"
"Your Majesty, I'm not sure. It seems that he is indeed Fang Yanjun, but with my understanding of Fang Yunsong, he shouldn't let Fang Yanjun come to Wasteland City." Fang Rusheng said.
"Why is it impossible?" Beitang Yu asked.
Fang Rusheng glanced at Teng Ye and said, "Fang Yunsong is an extremely cautious person. If he doesn't have full confidence, he will absolutely not take risks. Not to mention … Fang Yanjun is his lifeblood. How could he let Fang Yanjun come all the way to Wasteland City? Isn't he afraid that his precious grandson will become your hostage?"
"What if he has confidence in me and is absolutely certain that I will win?" Teng Ye asked.
"Definitely win?" Fang Rusheng smiled faintly, "Did you mention us to him? No, with just the strength of you and the people in the capital, how could you pull Murong Ke down from the throne? You underestimate Murong Ke too much. "
Teng Ye said coldly, "I didn't underestimate Murong Ke. It's just that he is no longer the Murong Ke of the past. He is trapped by love and does not care about the overall situation."
"So how long do you want to wait?" Beitang Yu asked.
"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to, but … I haven't won over Fang Yunsong yet. I'm worried that there will be problems when the time comes." Teng Ye said in a low voice. He didn't want to usurp the throne at this time. If Shen Huan 'er could give birth to a prince, he would be more willing to help Murong Ke's son become the new Emperor. If Beitang Yu intervened, Jin Country would be controlled by the Dark North Kingdom in the future.
Both he and Beitang Yu knew that they were only temporarily using each other. In the future, when Murong Ke stepped down, they would also become opponents.
Beitang Yu snorted coldly, "What can go wrong? Don't forget, Mo Rongzhan has returned. It is because of your delay that today's situation has come to this. Now you not only have to deal with Murong Ke, but also Mo Rongzhan."
Thinking of Mo Rongzhan and Ye Zhen, Teng Ye's face sank, "Your Majesty, what do you plan to do?"
"I will send troops to help you. You can mobilize your troops. When the time comes, just let someone open the gate for us." Beitang Yu said.
"This … I have to think about it." Wasn't this letting the army of the Dark North Kingdom into the Jin Country? If Beitang Yu refused to withdraw after obtaining the Jin Country, what should he do?
Teng Ye found that he was not fully prepared to deal with Beitang Yu.
The risk of cooperating with Beitang Yu was too great.
"I will give you three days." Beitang Yu said in a deep voice, "Whether you agree or not, we will still send troops."
"Your Majesty?" Teng Ye suddenly looked up at Beitang Yu, "Are you planning to fight with the Jin Country?"
Beitang Yu's eyes flashed with resentment, "Mo Rongzhan destroyed 200,000 elite troops of the Dark North Kingdom. I have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. Even if Mo Rongzhan is no longer the emperor, I will destroy the Jin Country."
"You said you would give me the Jin Country." Teng Ye cried.
"When I take the Jin Country, I can naturally give it to you. As long as you pay tribute every year, I will not embarrass you." Beitang Yu said coldly.
Teng Ye's face was gloomy. This was different from what they had said before. How could Beitang Yu suddenly change his mind? "No, I will not agree. If you want to help me, lend me troops. You don't have to worry about other things."
"Do you have the ability to lead troops?" Beitang Yu asked.
"Your Majesty will know in the future." Teng Ye said.
Beitang Yu stood up, "Well, I will give you one last chance. Half a month later, if you still don't want to lead troops, I will lead troops for you."
Teng Ye's face was ugly. Watching Beitang Yu and Fang Rusheng leave, he threw the teacup in his hand to the ground.
At the back door of the Garrison Mansion, a black carriage was quietly waiting.
Beitang Yu, wearing a cloak, strode onto the shaft of the carriage.
"Your Majesty, Teng Ye still looks hesitant." Fang Rusheng whispered.
"Then we will decide for him." Beitang Yu coldly snorted, "Is there really a problem with that Fang Yanjun?"
"I think there is an 80% chance that it is fake. I am afraid that Teng Ye is deliberately trying to fool us." Fang Rusheng said.
Beitang Yu's eyes were gloomy, "If it is fake, then kill him."
Fang Rusheng whispered, "Your Majesty, I have a way to prove the truth."
"What way?" Beitang Yu asked with a frown.
"Whether it is true or false, as long as the news of Fang Yanjun in the Wasteland City reaches the Fang family, they will certainly respond. At that time, we will see what Fang Yunsong does. We will naturally know the truth." Fang Rusheng said.
Beitang Yu glanced at him, "Go do it."
