Chapter 290: Diverting the Tiger from the Mountain

Fang Xiaoyu went to see the emperor with King An.

The Emperor seemed a little surprised that the two of them had come together. He knew the tense relationship between his imperial brother and Ye Xici and Fang Xiaoyu.

King An connived at Li Suqing to kill Jian An, which was no different from the revenge of killing his mother for Ye Xici, the difference was only that he didn't do it himself.

may hinder the relationship between father and son, and hinder the love of blood, the relationship between the two can still be maintained. Although he called his father, although he was still father and son in name, he knew each other very well in his bones.

Therefore, Fang Xiaoyu came with his imperial brother so calmly, which made him feel incredible. In his impression, the two met and didn't fight, which was good.

In fact, he came to find Fang Xiaoyu, but it was late at night, and it was not good for the lonely man and widow to spread out, even if he had never had any dirty thoughts, and the age between them was enough to become father and daughter, but Shen even met privately in the middle of the night, and it would be harmful to his reputation after all.

He originally came to inquire about Fang Xiaoyu's plan, but before he decided to refuse to make peace, and even before receiving the threat from Da Zhou, Fang Xiaoyu had told him that the northwest was always invaded by Da Zhou, so she decided that the next time Da Zhou's soldiers invaded the northwest again, she would definitely give them a big gift. But after asking more carefully, she was sloppy, and refused to say anything about the plan, only saying that it was just an idea now, and whether it could be implemented and whether it could be used on the battlefield still needed time to verify. Therefore, he didn't ask more, but only believed her. Gave her plenty of time.

But now that the northwest is in crisis, Da Zhou will definitely not rest, and the battle of the Northern Yan Quicksand Country has cost him a lot of troops. He had just received news that the Quicksand Country had increased its troops by 100,000 on the basis of its 500,000 army, which was almost the total population of the Quicksand Country.

He was originally considering whether to send troops from other places to support, but as soon as the Great Zhou threat came out, the Northwest Land could no longer act loosely. The country of quicksand, a small country with a population of more than 700,000, can fight the Northern Yan in a mess. The northwest is facing the Great Zhou, an ambitious country with a strong national strength, and the existing troops may not be able to support it, and it is even more impossible to transfer troops to Northern Yan.

It's not just the Northwest. Even the other garrison troops can't be easily mobilized. No one knows whether the battle of Beiyan is a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and no one knows whether there are other small countries that have also become other people's pawns in addition to the quicksand country. Soldiers against the Great Contractor.

Once the troops were transferred to support the Northern Yan. If other countries take advantage of it, it will be a disaster over there.

Therefore, he remembered the surprise that Fang Xiaoyu had said, and remembered that she said that she would definitely give the Great Zhou army a big gift. So he couldn't wait to see Fang Xiaoyu and ask about the details of this surprise, but he was afraid that the walls in the palace would have ears, and if he summoned Fang Xiaoyu into the palace again, it would inevitably attract attention, and it would be even more unreasonable to leave Fang Xiaoyu in the palace. That's when he disguised himself. Dressed plainly, he secretly left the palace and came to King An's Mansion. Seeing Fang Xiaoyu, she just wanted to ask if she really had a way to face the Great Zhou army without changing her face.

It's just that when I came to King An's Mansion, I only saw Fang Xiaoyu alone after all, it was not beautiful, and it was not good to hear when it was passed out, let alone explained. Therefore, he even called King An together, so that even if it spread, he could be said to have come to see the emperor's brother, and it was not easy to arouse suspicion.

And he felt that although he, the royal brother, was a little unreliable in terms of emotional style, after all, as a royal family, he would not betray the country and have fornication with the enemy, so he was not worried about whether he would reveal the matter.

But at this moment, seeing that the two seemed to be very harmonious, he felt surprised. Could it be that the two of them have released their previous suspicions?

The emperor knew that if he wanted Fang Xiaoyu to settle his suspicions with him, the emperor's brother, the premise must be that Xici could forgive King An.

However, can the revenge of killing one's mother really be forgiven so easily? has been hunted down and framed several times since he was a child, can these be easily forgiven?

Or is there something hidden between them that he doesn't know, or is there something else hidden in Jian An's death back then?

He wanted to ask, but he felt it was too abrupt. If you want to say it, you just hold it back.

He thought that the war in the northwest was the most important, and it would not be too late to ask about the rest of the things when he had the opportunity in the future.

"The courtiers see the emperor."

"I've seen the royal brother."

Fang Xiaoyu saluted the emperor at the same time as King An, but the emperor waved his hand and said, "My own family, there are not so many rules." ”

"Brother Huang is here, but there is something important?" King An was a little puzzled. If something really happens, wouldn't it be better to leave them behind after the palace banquet is over? Why bother the royal brother to run again?

He sensed that the imperial brother was here, and he probably had something important to say.

"I'm here to find the Joker Girl." The emperor bluntly stated the purpose of this visit.

Wang An was slightly stunned, and then subconsciously glanced at Fang Xiaoyu, seeing that Fang Xiaoyu did not have the slightest look of surprise, he pondered in his heart.

Although he knew that Fang Xiaoyu was not simple, and he also knew that her identity as a Buddhist girl seemed to be very important to the imperial brother, he still underestimated the ability of this daughter-in-law who never gave him face, as well as his status in the imperial brother's heart.

"Aren't you surprised?" The emperor also looked at Fang Xiaoyu, seeing that her expression was the same as when she came, standing there calmly as usual, with confidence on her face.

She guessed that he was coming for her, so she wasn't surprised.

"The royal brother has something to talk about with Xiaoyu, and the younger brother avoids it." Although King An was very curious, he wanted to know what the imperial brother was doing to find Fang Xiaoyu. But he knew that if the royal brother didn't want him to know, it would not be beautiful for him to know too much. So he immediately sensibly proposed to retire.

"No need, it's about the safety of the family and the country, it's about the rise and fall of the great inheritance, as a royal family and a prince, it doesn't hurt to listen to it." The emperor didn't seem to have any intention of hiding it from King An.

This is the trust of King An, and going is also a test for him.

King An immediately paused, then stood aside, looked at Fang Xiaoyu and the emperor, and fell into deep thought.

"Laughing girl, what am I looking for you? You know what to expect. The emperor looked at Fang Xiaoyu with a smile and spoke.

Fang Xiaoyu didn't seem to be stunned by the emperor's gaze at all, and then smiled: "Is it about the war in the northwest?" ”

"You're really smart. I can always guess what I'm thinking. The emperor was not annoyed by being seen through, but said: "I have received the news that the Quicksand Country has increased its troops by another 100,000, and Beiyan is in danger. However, I could not easily send troops from other places to reinforce the Northern Yan, and I was afraid that I would fall for others' plans to divert the tiger from the mountain. ”

"The emperor thinks that the sudden dispatch of troops from the Quicksand Country is related to the Great Zhou?" Fang Xiaoyu suddenly asked.

The Emperor's eyes narrowed instantly. Then he said: "Eight or nine is not far from ten." That Da Zhou suddenly made a difficulty, and the timing was too delicate, I am afraid it was not a temporary intention. Rather, it has been premeditated for a long time. The population of the Quicksand Country is only seven or eight hundred thousand, but he can send 600,000 troops to attack Beiyan, even if he is victorious, he should understand. He is a small country. What are the consequences of angering Dacheng. But he sent troops without hesitation, and contained all the troops of Northern Yan, and it was difficult to guarantee that it was not to divert the tiger from the mountain, but to transfer troops from other places to support Northern Yan, so as to take advantage of the weakness. ”

"The emperor thinks that in addition to the quicksand country, there are other effects that may also be controlled, just to shake my great inheritance?" Fang Xiaoyu still maintained a slight expression.

"Do you have any other ideas?" The emperor was curious.

Fang Xiaoyu shook his head. said: "Your Majesty, the quicksand country suddenly raised troops. I'm afraid it's really inseparable from Da Zhou. Therefore, the rest of the local armies cannot be moved lightly, but the emperor, aren't there still a lot of troops in the capital? Didn't the group of people in Gyeonggi Guard really see blood yet? ”

"Do you want me to send the Gyeonggi Guard to support the Northern Yan?" The emperor was shocked.

"No!" Not only the emperor, but even King An was also shocked, and hurriedly stopped: "Gyeonggi Wei is responsible for guarding the safety of the capital, how can I leave?" If Gyeonggi Wei is not there, how can the safety of the imperial brother be guaranteed? Where is the safety of the capital? Gyeonggi Wei must not leave the Gyeongshi without permission! ”

"What the emperor's brother said is reasonable, Gyeonggi Wei must not leave the capital without permission, otherwise I am afraid that there will be branches." The royal brother also shook his head in denial.

"Why not?" Fang Xiaoyu smiled, looking eager to learn.

King An didn't know what Fang Xiaoyu's idea was, but he must not allow Gyeonggi Wei to leave the Imperial City, so he said: "Gyeonggi Wei has always been used to defend the Imperial City, how can I leave Jingshi?" Do you know that Da Zhou didn't want the imperial brother to be transferred out of Gyeonggi Wei and took advantage of the situation? ”

Fang Xiaoyu laughed out loud and said, "What my father said is reasonable. The Great Zhou Dynasty has been conspiring and tricking for decades, playing with all countries and applauding all countries, what is he for? ”

King An and the emperor were both stunned, and then said in unison: "The world? ”

Fang Xiaoyu nodded and said with a smile: "If you want to win the world, the first thing is to win the throne." In order to seize the throne, they have worked hard for decades. Your Majesty, if the other party really wants to divert the tiger from the mountain, where do you think the goal should be? ”

The emperor lowered his eyes in contemplation, and then suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "My throne, that dragon chair?" ”

The emperor suddenly understood Fang Xiaoyu's purpose for him to be transferred out of the capital by transferring him out of the capital.

Thinking about those conspiracies, his thoughts suddenly became clear.

Fang Xiaoyu is right, Gyeonggi Wei can't stay in the capital. At least you can't stay too many people in the capital, you have to go out half of them to support Beiyan and Fang Jianzhang.

The emperor's gaze became more and more loving. This woman, if it were a man, I am afraid it would be a headache.

King An was confused. He didn't know where the real conspiracy of the Great Zhou was, and he didn't know what kind of calculations and arrangements the Great Zhou had made in order to seize the Great Chengjiang River.

Therefore, he knew nothing about Fang Xiaoyu and the emperor's dumb riddles, but he couldn't completely clear the fog, so he could only stand there, expecting the imperial brother or Fang Xiaoyu to explain it to him well.

"And the emperor, at this time, the fox wolf grassland is not used, when should it be?" Fang Xiaoyu suddenly mentioned the fox wolf grassland again.

The emperor smiled and said, "I still want to wait until the Great Zhou sends troops to attack, just to use the fox wolf grassland to give it a surprise surprise." However, the Quicksand Country is menacing, and the alliance with the Dayu Dynasty is not yet the time to use, and it is indeed changed to the warriors of the Fox Wolf Grassland to show their faces and increase their military achievements. ”

King An was once again inexplicable. He didn't understand how to pull it and pull it to the fox wolf grassland again.

It seems that he finally knows too little about state affairs, and it has been a pleasure to be an idle prince all these years, if it weren't for the great difficulties, he was afraid that he wouldn't even bother to care about these.

The emperor was as clear as Fang Xiaoyu. Fox Wolf Grassland, the first time these four words appeared in front of Fang Xiaoyu, it was the assassination on the way to the solemn temple of Baoxiang Mountain. That time, at the instigation of the second prince, Prime Minister Mei Cheng ordered, and the assassination that was blamed on the crown prince made the fox wolf grassland completely enter Fang Xiaoyu's sight.

And the dagger that was seized from the assassin Fang Xiaoyu is still treasured.

And after that, his father was 'assassinated' and recuperated in the mansion, and the old hammer pretended to be dead on the bed, but the real General Fang secretly went out of the capital.

Except for the emperor and Fang Xiaoyu, no one knew what Fang Jianzhang had done.

And it was during that period of time that General Fang only brought a few henchmen into the Fox Wolf Grassland, and then instigated the civil strife in the Fox Wolf Grassland, and then subdued the Fox Wolf Grassland with a strong posture for the use of the Great Inheritance.

The Fox Wolf Grassland is not a country, although it has a leader, but after all, it cannot compete with the big powers.

General Fang promised that the Fox Wolf Grassland was still governed by the leader, and Dacheng would not deprive him of the right to manage, and he would not even need them to pay tribute, but only need to bow down to Dacheng. With such conditions, coupled with General Fang's domineering, everything fell into place.

This matter has never been announced to the public, so no one knows that the fox wolf grassland is already a subject country, this time the quicksand country came suddenly, the emperor did not plan to really use the forces of the fox wolf grassland, but now in order to invite the king into the urn, this fox wolf grassland has to be used.

"And the emperor, if you want to deal with the quicksand country without distraction, there is still a place that needs to be destroyed." Fang Xiaoyu suddenly became angry and had a trace of murderous intent.

"Where?" King An couldn't help but ask.

"Hayashu Country." The emperor and Fang Xiaoyu spoke in unison, obviously thinking of one place.

Then King An was stunned again. Therefore, he did not understand the cause and effect, and he did not understand what this matter had to do with the country of Hayashu. But he suddenly thought that Fang Xiaoyu had just asked him about the matter when he was an envoy to the country of Hayashu, and he suddenly felt that this matter must be related.

"There, where she was born. Without that person, nothing would have happened today. And the entire Zaoshu country has long been a subject country of the Great Zhou, and it cannot be let go. Fang smiled coldly. Hayashu country, that is the place where all the tragedies that happened to Ye Xici are located. It was precisely because of the play between that woman and the emperor of Zaozhou that coaxed the world that led to the reversal of Jian An and Zhou Ling, led to Jian An's death, and led to Ye Xici's painful childhood. Da Zhou is the culprit in all this, but Zaozhou Guo is a real accomplice and cannot escape responsibility.

There, it was the spies that Da Zhou planted around Dacheng, and because of this, she would not let go of any of the royal family of Zaozhou Kingdom.

And the emperor knows the cause and effect, so naturally he will not pull down the state of Zaozhou, and the new hatred and old hatred should always be calculated carefully.

Fang Xiaoyu secretly glanced at the emperor. She knew that the emperor actually had the strength to deal with the state of Hayashu.

Don't look at him always crying poor, but just think about it, how can he only have a few million troops with a population of billions?

The emperor could easily give her a woman 100,000 troops, and he easily gave Ye Xici 200,000 troops. He doesn't care about the 500,000 troops in her father's hands plus 100,000, and he is not afraid that her family's general Fang will be overpowered, this is definitely due to fearlessness, not absolute trust.

Only with soldiers in her hands can she have no fear, so she is sure that the emperor must have terrible military power in his hands, but it is not known to outsiders.

So, at this time, he still doesn't show his edge, and he is still here to fight with her, is he testing her? Or are you testing her family's general? (To be continued.) )
