"What worries me the most is that the Maison will join forces to boycott it, and if this happens, it will be a real dead end." A momentary sorrow appeared in Shen Yan's bright eyes, and a helpless smile appeared at the corner of his mouth at random, looking at the front faintly, as if he wanted to see through the scenery ahead.

"Lord Shen's concern is indeed a dead end, even if the strength of the entire imperial court is used, it may not be able to crush the united family." Hearing Shen Yan's worried words, Xu Sanyuan's brows furrowed slightly, Shen Yan's worry is not impossible, if it is really related to the rise and fall of the family, those people with lofty ideals in the family will definitely implement the union.

Although the strength of the imperial court is very strong, since the emperor introduced all the adult princes into the various departments of the court in order to choose the prince, the strength of the imperial court has been invisibly divided from a relative whole, and the imperial court has become a battlefield for the princes to compete for power and profit, even if the emperor's will is not as effective as before.

More importantly, since the emperor defeated Beihu thirty years ago, the focus of the entire imperial court has been to restore production, enhance national strength, and prepare to resist and even completely defeat Beihu. Great Xia's dream of defeating Beihu may be postponed again.

In addition, the family has always wanted to maintain and expand the existing rights in its hands, and the family has always been influencing the government in all aspects, and even in some places controlled by the family, the officials of the court are simply nothing, without any right to speak, and even their lives are controlled by these families.

The emperor knows the military affairs, and knows the importance of cavalry, and has repeatedly asked for the formation of a powerful Great Xia cavalry, but in addition to the most basic factor of the lack of suitable war horses in Great Xia, more importantly, the family knows that once the imperial court has a strong cavalry, no matter which family will be deterred by the imperial court, or these families will be directly exposed to the guns of the imperial court, without the slightest resistance or counterattack.

The combination of these various factors has created the current complicated situation in Great Xia. It is a pity that the emperor underestimated the power of the family too much, so he weakened the family many times and did not have any substantial effect, and now the family has formed a network of interests with the court and the princes, and then wants to eradicate it, the energy consumed has far exceeded the emperor's expectations, and the emperor knows in his heart that this dream cannot be realized in his lifetime.

At the same time, the emperor also realized that the effect of the previous tough strategy against the family was very limited, so he also thought about making some adjustments, but the family's defense of the emperor never stopped, and the emperor was old, so it was not easy to change. And Shen Yan unexpectedly entered the emperor's eyes at this time, and although Shen Yan also has a natural opposition to the family, he has many subtle differences with the emperor in terms of attitude, Shen Yan adopts a combination of fighting and pulling, although the emperor can't see the results of Shen Yan's strategy, but compared with the emperor's toughness, there are at least more changes and choices. And the change and combination of these factors made the emperor finally decide to let Shen Yan complete the eradication or weaken the family.

"At the moment, all this is an unknown change, and there is no substantive meaning in empty talk, so it is better to ask Xu Weng to have a few drinks." The corners of Shen Yan's mouth showed a loveless smile, and a faint but confident look randomly appeared, and he glanced at Xu Sanyuan lightly, and said slowly.

"Lord Shen, you have something to say." Hearing Shen Yan's sudden change of topic, Xu Sanyuan was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to understand the intention behind Shen Yan's words.

"Xu Weng still knows me." Hearing Xu Sanyuan's words, Shen Yan smiled indifferently.

"I know that Lord Shen has been holding back for a long time, and he must be calculating our family in his heart, hey, why is our family so unvigilant." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Xu Sanyuan's mouth.

This is not to say that Xu Sanyuan is too withdrawn, but as an internal servant, especially after serving the emperor for more than 30 years, Xu Sanyuan is very clear about his position and identity, and it is a taboo for his own survival not to get close to foreign officials, so over the years, whether it is those ministers in the court who are deeply valued by the emperor, or the prince who has vaguely obtained the emperor's attention, Xu Sanyuan has maintained a respectful and distant attitude, except for Shen Yan, Xu Sanyuan almost let go of his heart, maybe he and Shen Yan are allies on some level, or maybe the emperor likes Shen Yan very much, so it also affects his attitude towards Shen Yan at a certain level.

No matter what kind of mentality it is, since he became friends with Shen Yan, he has gained far more than he has lost. That's enough.

"Lord Shen, do you want to borrow a secret spy?" Xu Sanyuan's mind suddenly flashed a spiritual light, Shen Yan is not a fuel-efficient guy, every plan is to use the minimum cost to obtain the maximum profit, and Shen Yan is facing a very embarrassing situation this time, if he wants to break the situation, Shen Yan must borrow more power or borrow more power, so as to start a game with the family.

"Lord Shen should know that secret spies cannot be used lightly, and if there is no emperor's will, even our family cannot easily mobilize them." Although he understood Shen Yan's thoughts, when it came to the issue of authority, Xu Sanyuan could only be helpless.

"Xu Weng misunderstood." Hearing Xu Sanyuan's words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, he did think about wanting to secondment a spy from Xu Sanyuan's side, but what kind of existence is a secret spy, Shen Yan knows very well in his heart, it can be said that even if things reach an uncontrollable stage, Shen Yan will not seconded a spy to Xu Sanyuan, this is not just a matter of Xu Sanyuan's authority, but if a secret spy is seconded in this matter, it means that he has lost the game with the family, and he will become the target of the court's attack. will also lose its due status in the emperor's heart.

"Lord Shen doesn't want to seconded a spy to our family? But Lord Shen's current situation really requires the use of all the power that can be used? Hearing Shen Yan's words, a hint of surprise appeared in Xu Sanyuan's eyes, and he didn't quite understand Shen Yan's intentions.
