"Your Highness, are you serious?"

Wang Yining couldn't help but twitch, looking at Lin Rusong with a strange expression.

Even if you want to brag about your own son, there's no need to go to such an exaggeration.

The person mentioned in the letter is probably not the Heir of Northern Liang, but rather Third Prince Nezha!

What a flash of inspiration!

What about conquering a tribe single-handedly?

What a magnificent physique that made Tuoba Yu feel ashamed of his own!

Are you serious?

The Prince of Northern Liang laughed heartily, but instead of answering the question, he surveyed the furnishings of Wang Yining's residence and said with a smile, "Brother Wang, you've been in Northern Liang for almost ten years now!"

"Not nearly there, it's only been a little over seven years!"

Wang Yining glanced at him. This guy had suddenly come over and said something that made him wonder about his purpose.

Ever since Wafting Fragrance Pavilion was shut down, he had felt an invisible pressure. He knew in his heart that he had probably been discovered by that old fox Lin Rusong.

Seven years!

Hearing his words, a hint of reminiscence flashed in Lin Rusong's eyes, and he sighed, "I can't believe how fast time flies. My son has grown up in the blink of an eye. Time waits for no one!"

Forehead!

Wang Yining was a little confused by his sudden turn of events. He had thought the guy was going to talk about the Wafting Fragrance Pavilion, but he turned around and talked about his son instead.

What does this guy mean? Is he here specifically to show off his son?

He paused for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "My son, Wang Zitao, is about the same age as the Crown Prince, and he's grown up now, but compared to the Crown Prince, my son is a good-for-nothing!"

Forehead!

Wang Zitao's face turned green. "Father, you can praise Lin Yi Lin Yi you want, but why are you insulting me? Is this your own father?"

He felt a bit indignant, wondering how Lin Yi had managed to become so powerful. They used to hang out at the Wafting Fragrance Pavilion together, how did he suddenly become so formidable? It was simply unbelievable.

"Not at all, my son has only achieved a little bit!" Lin Rusong glanced at Wang Zitao, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

This guy dares to compare himself to my son? He's completely overestimating himself. My son is an outstanding individual, the youngest bigwig in Great Ning.

He wasn't going to keep playing games with him any longer, and said with a smile, "Actually, this trip was very simple. I heard that you have a daughter who isn't engaged yet, why not give her to my son?"

puff!

Just moments ago, Wang Zitao was still indignant, but he couldn't help but spit out his tea. This Prince of Northern Liang had actually come all the way here, apparently with his eyes on his younger sister.

Don't they know our sister is the future Crown Princess? Has Lin Yi gone mad?

Wang Yining's face stiffened for a moment, then he forced a smile and said dryly, "Your Highness, my daughter has been betrothed since childhood, but she is not yet married, so no one knows about it."

The subtext is: No!

"Didn't Brother Wang have a falling out with the Emperor and cancel the marriage? Now you say the marriage is still on? Is it because you don't like my son?" Lin Rusong looked at Wang Yining with a meaningful expression.

Bitter!

At this point, how could Wang Yining not know Lin Rusong's intentions today? He was clearly looking for trouble.

He probably really suspects me now, and has even locked onto me, regarding the matter at the Wafting Fragrance Pavilion. This is a huge problem.

He took a deep breath and said with a wry smile, "Your Highness misunderstands. My daughter has someone she loves, and as her father, I shouldn't interfere. This..."

He wasn't really interested in Lin Rusong's suggestion.

Even though the Lin Clan father and son are powerful now, the troubles ahead are yet to come. Once the emperor decides to settle scores with Northern Liang, it will be a catastrophe. Naturally, he cannot choose Lin Yi as his son-in-law.

snort!

Seeing his refusal, a cold smile flashed in Lin Rusong's eyes. He really didn't know what was good for him.

These days, there's no such thing as having someone you truly love; it's all decided by your parents. This is even more impossible for a prestigious family like theirs.

That old fox has clearly refused!

He was just about to speak when he heard a noise behind him, and then saw Han Song excitedly running in.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince has been appointed Prince of Xiliang!" Han Song exclaimed excitedly, disregarding the Wang Clan father and son.

Prince of Xiliang?

Upon hearing this, Lin Rusong was startled. Could this be a false rumor from Han Song?

How could it be so sudden, directly becoming the Prince of Xiliang?

My son was just promoted to Governor of Xiliang not long ago, how could he be promoted again so quickly? What's going on?

He asked in a deep voice, "Is the news true?"

"Your Highness, the imperial edict has arrived!"

Han Song handed the imperial edict to Lin Rusong, his face beaming with excitement.

It really was an imperial edict!

Upon seeing the imperial edict, Lin Rusong's eyes lit up. It really was an imperial edict, a commendation for him.

The content is simple: The Prince of Northern Liang sons and is also skilled at raising them!

"What a wise way to raise a son! The Emperor truly understands me. I never imagined he would actually bestow upon my son the title of Prince of Xiliang!"

Upon opening it, he couldn't help but burst into laughter, his laughter growing increasingly unrestrained. "You, Li Anlan, so arrogant, haven't you compromised in front of my son after all?"

They were trying to find a governor of Xiliang before, but now they can't sit still anymore.

Hahaha!

Lin Rusong was in high spirits. He glanced at the dumbfounded Wang Clan father and son and laughed, "Old Wang, you should think this over carefully. My son is now the Prince of Xiliang. If you don't cherish him, your daughter won't be good enough for him in a while!"

After saying that, he turned and left. This good news had to be known to everyone in Northern Liang, to show them what a true Heir of Northern Liang was.

Our son didn't need the support of Northern Liang, yet he fought his way to become the Prince of Xiliang, a figure on par with the Prince of Northern Liang. What a genius he is, a true prodigy.

Who else in the younger generation possesses such talent?

If the Wang Clan doesn't know what's good for them, then after they destroy the Great Ning, let's see how your daughter becomes the Crown Princess and ends up washing my son's feet!

Lin Yi has been crowned a king?

Watching Lin Rusong's retreating figure, Wang Yining's face turned extremely grim.

To everyone's surprise, Lin Yi was directly granted the title of king and became the ruler of Xiliang, a power comparable to Northern Liang. This was a major event.

"What an excellent way to raise a son! Did you raise a Prince of Xiliang?"

"Butler, go and investigate!"

Originally, Northern Liang was already struggling on its own, but now with the addition of Xiliang, if this father and son join forces, even the emperor might not be able to withstand them.

He couldn't help but summon the butler and order him to investigate the matter.

The butler returned quickly, but his face looked grim.

"Master, it's true. Lin Yi has indeed become the Prince of Xiliang. The imperial decree of commendation has arrived, saying that the Prince of Northern Liang has fathered a fine son," the steward said with a wry smile.

ah!

Upon hearing the butler's words, the courtyard fell silent for a moment.
