The substitute prince: Reported the emperor's brother at the beginning

Chapter 229 Fang Weihong's Final Role

Fang Weihong didn't care about anything anymore, as he knew he was doomed to die.

Ning Yi laughed and said, "Fang Weihong, you are alone and you know that you will die, but what about all the men, women, and children in your Fang family?"

Fang Weihong snorted coldly: "If we fall into the hands of your Wu family, our Fang family will have no way to survive."

"It's just that this young master hates the injustice of heaven. My family worked diligently for the Great Wu Kingdom, but in the end, we were suspected and ended up like this. Heaven is blind."

Perhaps this is what Fang Weihong had always thought in his heart. The moment the Fang family raised the banner of rebellion, they were destined to have no way out.

If you fail, your entire family will be executed.

Ning Yi said coldly: "Are you blaming the heavens for being blind?"

"Who does the prince blame then?"

"If your Fang family wins and successfully captures the capital, this prince will definitely have no chance of survival. We are all fighting just to stay alive."

This is the truth. If the Fang family wins, the old emperor will have no chance of survival, and Ning Yi, the old emperor's son in name, will have even less chance of survival.

Only if both sides fight desperately can they have a chance of survival.

Fang Weihong said directly: "Stop talking nonsense. You are the Sixth Prince. You wouldn't just come to talk to me about these things, right?"

"This young master also knows that you must still be thinking about our Fang family's treasure. If it's gone, it's gone, believe it or not."

Fang Weihong had been interrogated many times about this so-called treasure. He also felt that Ning Yi came to talk about this just to get more benefits from him.

Ning Yi said leisurely: "This time, this prince is not here to ask for your Fang family's illusory treasure."

"This prince is giving the Fang family a way to continue living."

Fang Weihong suddenly looked up at him: "What do you mean, are you willing to let our Fang family go?"

"That's impossible. Stop lying to me, young master." Fang Weihong said disdainfully, "The old emperor wouldn't have let anyone in our Fang family get away with it. How could a prince like you risk doing this for our Fang family? Stop telling lies."

Not only did Fang Weihong not believe it, even Zeng Zhizhong and Qin Haifeng beside him couldn't believe it. They didn't know what the Sixth Prince was up to.

After all, the Fang family's rebellion has become a reality, which is a serious crime that will result in the execution of nine generations of the family. To put it bluntly, the whole family deserves to be executed by slow slicing.

Such a family of treason will not be easily let off by any dynasty. They may even be ground into dust and their ashes scattered, not even being able to rest in peace.

What's more, the old emperor hated the Fang family so much, how could he be willing to spare the Fang family's lives.

Ning Yi chuckled nonchalantly and said, "The emperor is the emperor, and this prince is this prince."

"Let me make it clear to you, right now, only I, the prince, can give your Fang family's bloodline a chance to survive."

Fang Weihong couldn't believe it: "Aren't you afraid of being blamed by the old emperor?"

"What's so difficult about this?" Ning Yi said calmly, "It's nothing more than letting a child go. Who would know?"

"Besides, this prince can say that the Fang family's children died in the chaos and are nothing to worry about."

In fact, it wouldn’t matter even if Ning Yi let a few more members of the Fang family go.

But he knew that the Fang family would not accept this. Once this matter became known, the old emperor would not forgive him.

But if I just let one child go, not many people would know about it, and it wouldn't cause me much trouble.

Fang Weihong waited for a while before asking, "Tell me, what do you want?"

He knew that Ning Yi dared to do this because he definitely wanted some benefits, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to leave the Fang family a glimmer of hope.

"Of course, this young master tells you that the Fang family really doesn't have any treasures. They just have some caravans that travel around frequently for business. Most of their money and food have been used to expand their army."

Ning Yi believed that just from the large amount of money and grain seized from Hushan Pass, it could be seen that the Fang family had indeed spent all their capital.

But now, a large amount of the Fang family's assets have been plundered by Ning Yi.

Even the weapons and armor used by the Fang family army were confiscated and brought back. In other words, all the family property that Fang Chengyu had been struggling with for so long was now used to make a wedding dress for Ning Yi.

Ning Yi smiled and said, "What this prince wants is very simple. This prince wants the 30,000 captives of the Fang family army to sincerely submit to this prince."

After hearing what he said, Fang Weihong immediately understood what he meant.

Suddenly Fang Weihong burst into laughter, and after he had laughed enough, he said, "Sixth Prince, ah, Sixth Prince, you are worthy of being the one who can defeat my Fang family army."

His expression suddenly darkened, and he said fiercely, "But you are the culprit who destroyed our Fang family. You still want me to convince the entire Fang family army to join you? Dream on."

"Go and kill all the captives if you have the guts. This young master tells you that as long as there are still men in the Fang family army, they will definitely avenge the Fang family."

At this time, Fang Weihong suddenly felt happy. He also realized that although their Fang family had been arrested.

But the Fang family army is still there. Although more than 30,000 people were taken prisoner, there are still many people who are loyal to the Fang family.

I believe that with all the kindness the Fang family has shown them over the years, there must be someone who wants to avenge the Fang family.

Looking at Fang Weihong who was so arrogant.

Ning Yi said calmly, "Fang Weihong, do you think this prince is really unable to deal with these soldiers of the Fang family army?"

"Actually, the method is very simple. All we need to do is eliminate all the generals, reorganize the remaining soldiers, and then give their families certain benefits, which is nothing more than increasing their pensions and military pay."

"Believe it or not, these soldiers will soon forget about your Fang family."

"That's impossible." Fang Weihong said immediately, "They're just a bunch of soldiers. They don't know shit. How are you going to lead an army of 30,000 when you've already dealt with all the generals?"

"Just a bunch of flies."

Qin Haifeng looked at him strangely, then looked at Ning Yi, who had a calm expression.

He couldn't help coughing. "Well, Young Master Fang, you should have heard that His Highness often trains his servants in the mansion."

"Actually, those servants are not guards. They are all junior officers after being trained for a period of time."

"What?" Fang Weihong looked at Ning Yi in disbelief: "You, you have been training?"

"Could it be that the rumors are all false?"

Since the Fang family wanted to rebel, they naturally investigated all the powerful people, high-ranking officials, and royal family members in the entire capital city.

During the investigation, it was found that the Sixth Prince, who was at odds with the current Crown Prince, had no other notable political achievements except for a disaster relief operation.

He only trains a bunch of young servants in the mansion all day long because he values his life and wants to train some personal and trustworthy guards.

But now after hearing what Qin Haifeng said, Fang Weihong, who had been in the army for many years, suddenly realized what was going on.

Ning Yi said, "Yes, this prince is training his generals. Training the generals is the first step to training the soldiers. As the young master of the Fang family, you should be most clear about this."

"Otherwise, do you think the new army established by this prince will be able to defeat your Fang family army so quickly, relying on the officers you have won over and think they are invincible?"
