Chapter 454: Overhead

King Gong took Xiang Ye's suggestion and did not deal with the Weiguo Mansion again.

A few days later, he brought gifts and personally went to the Weiguo Mansion to apologize for the last search, and also said many words of comfort about Wei Guogong's injury, and the friendly gesture was very sufficient.

After that, King Gong also sent some condolences to the Weiguo Mansion from time to time, but if there were good things to pay tribute to the place, he would rather not enjoy them himself, but also send someone to send a copy to the Weiguo Mansion.

King Gong's actions did win him a lot of praise, and he also trusted Xiang Ye a little.

Regarding King Gong's U-turn attitude, An Ruolan and Duchess Wei Guo were very puzzled, in case this was another conspiracy of King Gong, they became more and more cautious in handling things.

At the same time, the Northwest Military Camp ushered in a holy decree, and Yan Jian was appointed as the chief general, replacing the comatose Wei Guogong.

Although the holy decree was made by the emperor, Yan Jian knew that this was what King Gong meant.

Yan Jian successfully sat in the position of the chief general, and the status of the left army led by him also rose, and he showed off his might in the barracks. After gaining power, the generals of the left army began to suppress the young generals who supported the defense of the punishment everywhere, Yan Jian did not care at first, and when the subordinates were angry and about to cause a backlash, he intervened to stop them, restrained the people under them in a timely manner, and punished a few people who did too much.

has just taken the position, Yan Jian does not want to cause the dissatisfaction of other generals in the army, and appropriately punishing his subordinates makes it even more obvious that he is selfless and can win the hearts of the army.

I have to say that Yan Jian's strategy is very effective. Although the generals of the younger generation are still somewhat unconvinced, they are still willing to listen to his deployment.

It can be seen from this that Yan Jian is not a reckless man with only force and no brains. This is also one of the reasons why King Gong wooed him. is not only because of his family background and the disagreement with the Wei family, but also because he is a rare general.

Born in the great family Yan Guofu, the education he received since childhood made Yan Jian not only have the delicate mind of a literati, but also the heroic and decisive decision of a military general, which is an advantage that many military generals do not have. Previously, he proposed to transfer the tiger from the mountain, but he made the decision after careful consideration. This is indeed a good way to be worth a game, and if it weren't for other plans, Wei Xing would have agreed to it a long time ago.

After becoming the main general. The first thing Yan Jian did was to ask the imperial court for urgent transportation of supplies, and Wei Guogong's request had not been responded to before, but now as soon as he opened his mouth, the imperial court immediately approved it. Soon. Batches of grain and grass weapons were transported to the army, which relieved the urgent need, stabilized the morale of the army, and boosted morale.

The news in the army is closed, and most of the generals don't think as much as the literati, and now most of the soldiers in the army don't know the situation in Shengjing, and most people think that they are loyal to Emperor Wanhua. They just changed a commander, and Wei Guogong couldn't do it. General Yan did it, which means that General Yan is more trusted by the emperor and more capable, and the soldiers are willing to obey his orders.

After all, it was not the Northeast Army brought out by Wei Guogong, and most of the soldiers were lackluster in their loyalty to Wei Guogong, and they soon embraced Yan Jian.

Not to mention how Yan Jian took the opportunity to establish his authority, the Hu people attacked again.

Li Hujun had already received an order from King Gong to let Wei Xing die on the battlefield as soon as possible, so he visited Yan Jian's tent at night again.

Yan Jian had a lot of dissatisfaction with the messengers who always came late at night and did not show their true faces, and without waiting for the person to explain his intentions, he said bluntly: "Since they are all doing things for the prince, why should Brother Tai hide it, or does the prince not believe in the general?" ”

Li Hujun secretly said in his heart, and said busily: "Why did the general say this? The lowly masked is only to prevent others from discovering it, not to protect the general, if the prince does not trust the general, how can he agree to your request? ”

King Gong promised not to dictate the war in the northwest and make Yan Jian a worthy general, and only asked Yan Jian to assist him in completing the plan, and his plan was to let the Wei family father and son stay in the yellow sand on the northwest border forever.

Yan Jian pondered, no longer dwelling on this matter, and said, "Why did you come here this time?" ”

Li Hujun breathed a sigh of relief and explained his intention: "Now that the Duke of Wei Guo is unconscious, the prince hopes that the general can send more Wei Xing to fight." ”

"Guards?" Yan Jian frowned, and said reluctantly: "Now that the grain and grass have arrived, and the morale has been greatly boosted, it is a good time to make meritorious contributions, why do you want to let the guards take advantage of this?" I'm going to let my men fight. ”

Yan Jian is also stubborn, and the decisions he makes will not be changed easily.

He asked in a loud voice: "And the prince said that he would not interfere with my arrangements for marching and fighting, is it now going back on his word?!" ”

Leading the troops to fight all year round made Yan Jian develop a dragon and tiger momentum, and as soon as he became angry, he immediately shook Li Hujun into a cold sweat.

Wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, Li Hujun calmed down and said: "The general misunderstood, the prince has no such intentions, and I ask the general to believe that the arrogance of the guard will not be long in coming, and he will soon sacrifice his life for the country. ”

Many of King Gong's plans Yan Jian didn't know, it was because King Gong sent someone to secretly drug the Wei family's father and son, and he didn't know about it, hearing this, Yan Jian was suspicious, and said on the matter: "Although General Ben doesn't like to defend the punishment, he has to admit that he does have talent, and it is not easy to let him die on the battlefield, at least so far, as far as General Ben knows, there is no one among the Hu people who can behead him under the horse." He put his fingers together and made a decapitation motion.

There are naturally those who can win the punishment, but it is not easy to take his life.

Knowing his doubts, Li Hujun explained confidently: "This is not a matter of worrying about the general, the prince has already made arrangements, as long as the general sends guards to the battlefield, we have our own ways to let him go and never return." ”

Yan Jian glanced at him, knowing that it would be futile to fight any longer, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and said, "Since Wei Xing is going to die sooner or later, why waste military merits?" Now that the prince has already arranged it, presumably even if he is not on the battlefield, he can easily obtain the life of the guard, so it is better to give the opportunity to my general's subordinates. The prince's plan is about to come true, whether it is now or in the future, it is in urgent need of talents. And for now, let the general's subordinates make war exploits, and when they gain a firm foothold in the army in the future, it will also be of great effect to the prince. ”

"This ......," Li Hujun hesitated. Thinking about it carefully, Yan Jian's words are indeed very reasonable, although it is not ruled out that Yan Jian wants to cultivate his own power in the army, but it is undeniable that this is better than letting Wei Xing, a dying man, make meritorious service.

"Your Excellency, you might as well ask what the prince means, but before that, General Ben will not let Wei Xing fight." Yan Jian put down his words.

Li Hujun couldn't make up his mind. I had to say goodbye first, and then the flying pigeon passed the book to tell King Gong about it.

When King Gong received the news, he was so happy that he slapped the table and applauded. Said: "Even God will help me!" ”

Whether it is Xiang Ye or Yan Jian, they are both brave and resourceful generals, and they have their help. He's a great booster. What he neglected, or what he didn't have time to arrange, they thought about it for him, so that he would have a lot less trouble when he ascended the throne.

After reading the letter again, King Gong nodded and was about to write a reply.

Zhao Qing took the letter over to read it, and it was over. said: "This Yan Jian is really thoughtful, but I'm afraid that he has wolf ambitions." When the time comes, we will raise tigers for trouble. ”

King Gong naturally saw this, waved his hand and smiled indifferently: "Don't worry about this, Yan Guofu is already under the monitoring of this king, as long as Yan Jian has the slightest antipathy, this king can make him a lonely man in science, Yan Jian is a person who values love and righteousness, and he will not abandon his family." ”

"Since my father thinks that Yan Jian values love and righteousness, do you know that he really betrayed Emperor Wanhua and surrendered to us?" Zhao Qing raised new questions.

Once or twice is fine, but after many times, King Gong was also annoyed, and said angrily: "Don't forget, why Yan Jian submitted to this king, not only for his parents, wife and children, but also for his power and status!" ”

"That's why Erchen is worried that he may have troops and self-respect!" Zhao Qing didn't let him go toe-to-toe at all. The tone was stronger than his.

King Gong only felt a headache, and his joy was gone.

Pinching his eyebrows, King Gong said: "What's wrong with you lately, you have to do everything with your father, seeing that the big plan is about to come true, can't you stop for a while?" When your father ascends the throne, you can't make any trouble as you want? ”

Zhao Qing pursed the corners of his mouth and said: "The son is just talking about things, and the father is, he has been too eager for quick success recently, no matter who it is, as long as he says a few words that call your heart, you will be regarded as a confidant, aren't you afraid of being calculated?" ”

"That's because they do have a point, don't you think?" King Gong asked rhetorically, knowing that he was referring to Xiang Ye and Yan Jian.

Zhao Qing couldn't refute it, if everything went according to their plan, Xiang Ye's advice to Yan Jian would indeed be of great help to them in the future, but the problem was that the process of subduing these two people was too simple, and he was always a little uneasy in his heart, he was worried that his father would become unclear due to the impermanence of the stimulus.

"There is a saying that those who know the times are Junjie, Xiang Ye and Yan Jian are not stupid people, they naturally know what is best for them." King Gong said again.

Zhao Qing didn't refute again, but said: "Erchen is also worried that his father will be deceived. ”

King Gong smiled and said proudly: "Some people can be used for a while, and my father does not expect them to be used by me all the time. ”

Zhao Qing thought for a while, and said, "Erchen understands what his father meant. ”

Seeing that he returned to his previous respectful and obedient appearance, King Gong smiled and said: "My father knows that you are a little unhappy because of the affairs of that concubine's room during this time, so let's hold a banquet for your father in a few days, and then you invite your friends to come over to play, just take a distraction." ”

Zhao Qinghuan asked, "Can you call Chenshuang too?" ”

King Gong raised his eyebrows in surprise, "You seem to like the county lord of Chenshuang very much?" ”

Zhao Qing didn't hide it, and said with a smile: "Chenshuang is very smart and courageous, Erchen admires her very much, if she can be Erchen's sister, it would be great." ”

Hearing this, King Gong couldn't help laughing, he also thought that his son hugged An Ruolan with the love of men and women.

If it is really the love between men and women, he doesn't mind letting An Ruolan be the future prince's concubine after Wei Xing's death, because this little girl is really high-looking. According to the reports of the secret guards who were monitoring the Guardian Mansion, he guessed that she was the one who sabotaged his plan. Using the thief as a guide, let the secret guard automatically reveal the location of the letter, and then send someone to exchange the letter, waiting for the searcher to come to the door, which can be said to be one link after another, destroying the trap he set in one fell swoop. Although there must be someone behind her to help, it must be her who can come up with this solution.

It was also because he guessed that there was a master behind her, so King Gong was a little more jealous, and took advantage of the situation to adopt Xiang Ye's suggestion not to move the Weiguo Mansion.

However, her intelligence is better than that of many men, it is indeed very rare, if it can, King Gong also wants to have such a smart and clever daughter. Not only does it have an extra interpretation flower, but it can also better control the Patriotic Mansion.

Thinking of this, King Gong sighed regretfully and said, "It's a pity, the county lord of Chenshuang already has a father-in-law, and his father has no chance to accept her as a daughter-in-law." ”

Zhao Qing also showed a look of disappointment, he really wanted such a smart and clever sister.

Speaking of the northwest, Yan Jian commanded the battle for the first time and won the victory by a narrow margin, his morale was greatly boosted, and his prestige was also increased, and at the same time, he received a personal letter from King Gong. The letter first praised his foresight, and then stated that he would decide everything in the Northwest.

With King Gong's promise, Yan Jian directly put the guard in the air, and soon after, on the grounds that Wei Guogong needed to return to Beijing for treatment, he sent someone to escort their father and son back to Beijing. And Li Hujun sent people to ambush them on the way back to Beijing. (To be continued......)
