Chapter 2282: Conversation (4)
Fang Sheng Lin and Song Yun Xiang were silent for a while.
Each with their own mind.
And at this time, a soldier came to Song Yun Xiang, informing him that General Ning had woken up and that he would be brought to her side to talk with her.
Fang Sheng Lin left sensibly at this time.
On the other hand, Song Yun Xiang met with General Ning in the private room provided for her. It was quite interesting that neither of the two of them were put in the prison and instead it was more like house arrest.
Song Yun Xiang knew Long Qian Xing's purpose.
General Ning also understood.
She was sitting on the edge of the bed and saw Song Yun Xiang being pushed inside before the soldier left and locked the door once again. Seeing that Song Yun Xiang was perfectly fine, General Ning heaved a sigh of relief.
Fei Yang Kingdom didn't have the history of using poison, but their methods of torturing prisoners were still known. Even if not all generals and commanders did it, the few people who did were really cruel.
"I'm glad to see you're fine," General Ning said with a smile.
Song Yun Xiang saw General Ning was also perfectly fine and nodded in response. He knew that Long Qian Xing would not mistreat the enemies unless he was extracting for information. After all, there was no point in mistreating them for no purpose.
Long Qian Xing didn't have the hobby of torturing others.
"Yes," Song Yun Xiang said. "General Xing comes to talk with me not long ago."
General Ning's eyes flashed.
To be able to become a general, one had to have enough intelligence or power. General Ning was not exactly a big and muscular woman, but she was quite strong. However, one of her advantages was naturally her own intelligence.
Since she was quite smart, it allowed her to do many things on her own and able to survive until this day.
She also understood that her presence was not exactly welcomed by many people in Fan Yi Kingdom. After all, she basically touched their interest and so on.
The Ning Family was also a big family in Fan Yi Kingdom, but it was not very powerful. They didn't exactly stay in Fan Yi Kingdom's Capital City but instead in another city and General Ning was raised there.
Because of her talent and her persistence, she was able to enter the battlefield along with her brother.
The family actually wanted her brother to make a name on the battlefield.
But his talent and ability were not good enough.
In the end, it was General Ning who became a general while her brother was only a commander on the battlefield.
So when General Ning heard what Song Yun Xiang said, she understood what he wanted to tell her.
"So they ask you to persuade me?" General Ning asked.
Song Yun Xiang nodded. "What do you think of Fan Yi Kingdom?"
Instead of asking General Ning for answer directly, Song Yun Xiang diverted the question towards Fan Yi Kingdom as a whole. Talking about their own kingdom was not exactly an/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
common thing, but it happened from time to time.
And Song Yun Xiang had no qualms doing it.
While other people were being very careful since any slight bad rumors about the Imperial Family could cause them to be killed, Song Yun Xiang didn't care too much. In his previous worlds, there was the freedom of speech and Song Yun Xiang was naturally used to it.
Besides, he trusted that General Ning would not leak out what he said to outsiders. "Fan Yi Kingdom?" General Ning tilted her head. "It used to be a good kingdom." Used to be.
When General Ning was young, her father taught her about Fan Yi Kingdom's role and also the wars that happened. Fan Yi Kingdom was made because of the battle against the northern tribes.
There were princes sent here to guard the border from generation to generation.
They were doing their duties well but when the war broke out and these nobles and princes wanted to make their own power... that was the start of the separation of the kingdoms and the war era that lasted for decades.
During this period of time, Fan Yi Kingdom was able to survive mostly because they were strong.
Even when they were facing the northern tribe and the other kingdoms at the same time, they were able to do it. The previous emperor was also a wise emperor who cared for his people and had allowed many powerful generals to rise.
But the situation changed after the joint war against Qi Xi Kingdom. Because Qi Xi Kingdom's rapid expansion back then, it threatened the interest of many other kingdoms. They retaliated heavily and the territory of Qi Xi Kingdom shrunk greatly.
Fan Yi Kingdom was one of the biggest beneficiary.
Because they were right beside Qi Xi Kingdom and their territory also expanded greatly. The Emperor was busy with the new expansion and when he finally abdicated, the new emperor was also busy with this.
The result was also obvious.
There were many problems and division in the court due to the new territory. At the beginning, it was nothing more than a small conflict.
However, it grew bigger and bigger.
And now, it could be said that the situation in Fan Yi Kingdom was far from stable. Many ministers didn't care about the lives of the people in Fan Yi Kingdom and only cared for the benefit they could get.
General Ning knew more of these after she came into contact with them.
This made her feel annoyed.
But there was not much that she could do. She herself was also targeted by these old foxes because of her identity and ability. Not many people were willing to see her grow and made a name for herself.
The past few years could be said to be the worst.
