All Chapters of Cunning General Si Ning: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Si Ning knew that Qiu Bai had branded him as an ambitious person and that was who Si Ning was but the only mistake Qiu Bai made was thinking Si Ning wanted a whole large army to wage war so he would be able to sit at the top of all Generals, break free from Xiu Zhicheng and have a life filled with riches and marry the Princess of Xilie. Qiu Bai was right about him wanting the riches and sitting on top of all Generals especially finally getting to beat Shao Lang but if he was going to obtain it through seeing deaths and stepping over corpses at war then he doesn’t want it."A smart man will choose Xilie and a devoted man will choose Xiu." Qiu Bai said as he tapped his cup."...." A vein almost popped from Si Ning’s head that he had to pause his lips to avoid snapping at Qiu Bai for his roundabout way of talking."Which one are you General Si Ning, smart or devoted?" Qiu Bai asked his gaze on Si Ning without blinking as he continued to tap his cup, his

It had been two weeks since Si Ning had been attending the court assembly because he could not feign being sick anymore. He started attending the court meeting after reading all the books about the Military Ah Dai brought for him. He studied the books alongside the books about the governance of the Nation to avoid making a mistake in case he was being called upon in the court assembly but to his disappointment, most times he only stood there beside Shao Lang without saying a word while the other government Officials read their daily report to the Emperor and after, Xiu Zhicheng would say few words.Since Si Ning started attending the court meetings, he noticed there was always tension in the air, most of the Officials being quiet and the one’s turn to speak were always careful with their words acting as if Xiu Zhicheng would off their head with a slight mistake while the ones that made any slight mistake would quickly kowtow and ask for forgiveness.After sorting

Drinking at daytime wasn’t sometime Si Ning had ever done and he could feel his head banging that he had to wake up to throw up a few times after Ah Dai tucked him into bed.Even though he was drunk, he made sure to tell whoever was carrying him to take him home. He doesn’t want to wake up in the palace just like he did when he faked fainting at the court.Si Ning slept like a baby after emptying his stomach, he slept till almost dawn when he heard some movement in his room which made him quickly flung his eyes open and sat up, his head was still ringing that he had to place his hand on his forehead and closed his eyes knowing he would have a terrible hangover but first he had to see what was in his room that was oddly making him a little bit alert and he was about to rise only for him to see a shiny metal pressed to his neck.The metal shone from the little light coming from outside through his window and when Si Ning looked down he knew what it was

"His Majesty has arrived!"Si Ning bowed deeply with the rest of the Officials to pay their respects to the Emperor. He had already gotten used to the morning assembly and he doesn’t have to notice when Shao Lang raises his head before he raises his own. All he had to do was wait and after some time that he felt like Xiu Zhicheng had already taken his seat, he would raise his head at the same time with the rest of the Officials.The air was a bit stiff and it was almost uncomfortable to breathe that Si Ning had to direct his gaze at Xiu Zhicheng to see that he was dressed majestically in his large golden dragon robes with golden embroidery with his mortarboard hat that he almost hurt to look at how he was giving off the aura of the most important person in the room, looking graceful giving the throne and the background a classic look, it was such a look that it was almost one of the things Si Ning was lowkey always looking forward to. How Xiu Zhicheng would dress

Shen Yu raised a hand and pointed his index finger at Si Ning but he had lost a large amount of blood so his hand waver between Si Ning and Shao Lang as he squinted his eyes to see clearly.Oh Dear, must he make it obvious...Si Ning shifted a bit to make sure Shen Yu was pointing directly at Shao Lang. A dying man pointing at him and creating a topic for the Officials to gossip about was something Si Ning want to avoid at all cost, he was already the most talked about when Xiu Zhicheng declared him as his Consort to be and Shen Yu pointing to him to create another topic wasn’t something Si Ning wants."General Si... Ning..." Shen Yu called out, his voice breaking but firm. "You... hur... hur... you... win... finally... see.. ing that...hur.." Shen Yu coughed as he struggled to talk while blood flows out continuously from his mouth.The sword must have hit a bad spot.Si Ning knew it won’t be long for Shen Yu to drop dead and since Shen
