Speaking of this, the prince's eyes were gloomy and he lowered his head slightly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zuo Qiyang understood the prince's mood, sighed softly, and said: "The emperor has always been obsessed with the fact that the queen mother blindly supports you, the prince, but isolates him, the emperor in power, but even at such a juncture now, he still can't see through it, and he still does his own thing, even regardless ......of flesh and blood affection" Speaking of this, he looked up at the prince as if he remembered something, and asked: "The emperor's attitude is there, it's not a day or two, the queen mother can't be unclear, and she must have taken it into account, I'm afraid that her so-called second step, asking for military power is a pretense, testing the emperor, and handing an olive branch to the emperor for the last time is true, right? In that case, she must have a backup plan, right?

In that case, she must have a backup plan, right?
"The emperor doesn't care about your life or death, but the queen mother and queen won't sit idly by, right? What are they going to do? How are you going to be protected? Did you privately call the emperor's soldiers and horses secretly stationed on the outskirts of Xijing? Those people are the border troops transferred from the southeast border, and they are all people of the emperor from top to bottom, and they are almost loyal to the emperor alone, but I am afraid that even if the prestige is as high as the empress dowager, they will not be able to issue orders to them, not to mention that even if they can barely say that they can be transferred to Gaoxiang, such a group of people is difficult to rely on, will they defect to the battle......
Zuo Qiyang was guessing to himself, completely forgetting to ask the prince who was sitting on the side.
Seeing this, the prince couldn't help but be puzzled in his heart: with Zuo Qiyang's cleverness, he just glanced at the staffing situation around him before entering the door just now, and he could guess the contradictions between himself and his father, his current situation, and even the attitude and thoughts of the empress dowager.
Seeing that Zuo Qiyang thought about it and couldn't come to a conclusion, the prince said directly: "It's Brother Yan." ”
With such a simple mention, Zuo Qiyang's body was shocked, staring at the prince, as if he had heard some amazing news, his eyes were complicated, and he repeated: "Fearless people? The group of people stationed in the Valley of Dragontail? When Yan Wuxing went to the north, the emperor only transferred 5,000 soldiers and horses to him, not to mention resisting the fierce orcs on Longji Mountain, even the riots of ordinary people could not be suppressed.
"The Empress Dowager, is she going to call the private soldiers raised by Yan Wuxing in the north? The group of mobs who did not report to the court, or who surrendered themselves, or bandits who recruited peace...... The people in the north are fierce, and over the years, roughly calculated, there are 20,000 people......"
Zuo Qiyang muttered, Xin Zi was confused when he heard it, but Yan Xiye heard it in his heart - Zuo Qiyang was like having clairvoyance and ears, he knew everything in the world clearly, and it was not difficult to know that Brother Yan was good at raising private soldiers, but it was not easy to know where these private soldiers came from, and even the specific number was clear.
On the other side, Zuo Qiyang didn't notice the change in the prince's face at all, he thought to himself about the empress dowager's step, but his face became worse and worse, and finally asked Yan Xiye with a calm face: "Do you know how many people Yan Wuxing is going to take south?" When to go? ”
Zuo Qiyang asked bluntly, Yan Xiye didn't dare to hide it, and said directly: "Listen to the meaning of the emperor's great-grandmother, her old man hopes that Brother Yan can bring fifty percent of the people here, but when Brother Yan heard about the current situation of me and the West Palace, he couldn't sit still, and directly brought all the private soldiers who had not been in the establishment, and the people were already on the way, so we had to rush over before my father made a move, and in three days, we would be able to go to a barren mountain north of Gaoxiang, and when the people and horses were in place, Brother Yan would order someone to notify us." ”
Three-day ......
In three days, you will arrive at the outskirts of Gaoxiang......
Zuo Qiyang repeated these words in his mind, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
Heading south from the Longji Mountain in the north, even if it is a well-trained army, it will take at least ten days to reach Gaoxiang, not to mention that it is necessary to hide people's eyes and ears as much as possible on the way, in case the emperor notices something unusual.
But now Yan Xiye calmly said the three-day deadline, which shows that he has obtained Yan Wudren's permission.
In this way, the Empress Dowager had already arranged for this, but she did not reveal the slightest rumor to herself.
Yan Xiye glanced at Zuo Qiyang's clenched fist, and looked at him along the fist, seeing that his face was pale, he gritted his teeth and looked straight ahead, without saying a word, thinking that he was blaming the Empress Dowager and himself for hiding him from him in such an important matter, so he put down his posture and said in a gentle tone as much as possible: "The emperor's great-grandmother also thought about delivering the news to you first and discussing it with you." It's just that you also know the situation in the palace at that time, my father has already been carried away by the attitude of the Dongyuan court, and even I was driven out by him after just a few words of confrontation with him, and then it was very difficult for the emperor's great-grandmother to quietly catch up with my eldest brother before I left. ”
The prince's voice reached Zuo Qiyang's ears, but it did not enter his heart. At this moment, he was full of news that Yan Wuxing was leading 20,000 private soldiers south, and he only felt a tightness in his chest.
can know that the prince cares about his own thoughts before he is willing to spend this tongue to comfort himself, otherwise, with his situation and status, he just needs to do his best, follow the arrangement of the empress dowager, and protect Xin Zi's safety, and he doesn't need to explain anything to himself at all.
Thinking of this, Zuo Qiyang forcibly suppressed the resentment and regret in his heart, and looked at Yan Xiye as friendly as possible.
