Chapter 505: A Dangerous Move
"Xu Sanyuan, you go out of the palace later, and inform Shen Yan that guy will come to the Qinzheng Hall tomorrow morning." Although Xia Qi was full of anger and hatred in his heart for what the Northwest Zhao family had done, Xia Qi didn't want to turn his face with the Northwest Zhao family now.
This is not to say that Xia Qi does not want to move the Northwest Zhao family, in fact, Xia Qi has long had the idea of moving the Northwest Zhao family in his bones, but Xia Qi knows very well in his heart that moving the Northwest Zhao family is not as easy as moving the court officials, and a holy decree will be done. After all, the Northwest Zhao family is the Northwest Wang family, and the mother family of the Twelve Princes.
Whether it is the strength of officialdom or the strength of the military, the Zhao family in the northwest does not have enough foundation, but the Zhao family in the northwest has mastered nearly forty percent of Jinling's industry, if the Zhao family in the northwest is easily moved, and Xia Qi has no corresponding means of alleviation, the people's livelihood in Jinling will fall into a kind of turmoil, and the people's will will be scattered, which is an extremely huge blow to the imperial power.
Moreover, the most important point is that the Northwest Zhao family has at least three or more ink treasures of Taizu in their hands, which can be used as a huge obstacle to starting the Northwest Zhao family in the summer, unless he is killed.
After all, this is a political action, not a simple military action, besides, any military action must be subordinated to a political action, so Taizu's Mobao is a very important sword that stifles all his strength.
Of course, Xia Qi can completely ignore Taizu's Mobao and forcibly eradicate the Northwest Zhao family through military means, but in this way, it will give other families and clans a political excuse, and it will not be easy for him to move other families and clans in the future, unless he can find a better political reason.
Although it is easy to find political reasons, it is easy to find, and it is a little difficult to say that it is difficult to find.
Therefore, before he is absolutely sure, Xia Qi doesn't want to completely turn his face with the Zhao family in the northwest.
And all of Xia Qi's thoughts were expected by Shen Yan, if the emperor really wanted to move the Northwest Zhao family, after Shen Yan interrogated Mi Peiying, the emperor would move the Northwest Zhao family, and nothing happened.
"Xu Sanyuan, do you think Shen Yan will impulsively settle accounts with Zao Wou-Ki after arresting the middleman?" A faint layer of doubt flashed in Xia Qi's eyes, and he asked slowly.
"Back to the emperor, with the minions' understanding of Lord Shen, Lord Shen should not impulsively go to the trouble of the Zhao family, although Lord Shen is a temperamental person, but he is more rational, Lord Shen also knows that the Zhao family plays a pivotal position in Jinling, if the Zhao family is rashly moved, the counterattack of the Zhao family will definitely make Lord Shen unable to eat and walk, this is an absolutely unbalanced confrontation in strength, so the slave feels that Lord Shen will definitely temporarily let go of this hatred, strive to expand his strength, and then make a fatal fight when the time is ripe." Hearing the emperor's inquiry, a touch of contemplation appeared in Xu Sanyuan's eyes, according to Shen Yan's character of retribution, knowing that the mastermind behind the scenes was Zhao Wouji, Shen Yan would definitely retaliate, but Shen Yan also knew the strength of the Zhao family in the northwest, so the rational Shen Yan would definitely choose forbearance.
"I also hate the Zhao family very much, and I can't wait to uproot him, however, although I have this strength and ability, I can't move the Zhao family now, if I move Zao Wou-ki, the people of Jinling will be flustered, which is not what I want to see." Hearing Xu Sanyuan's answer, a faint smile appeared in Xia Qi's eyes, although Shen Yan usually doesn't look very reliable, but when it comes to the critical moment, Shen Yan will always make the right choice.
"You said that if Shen Yan was allowed to stay in Jinling, would Zao Wou-Ki assassinate Shen Yan again?"
"The minion doesn't know Zao Wou-Ki very well, but the minion feels that there is such a possibility." Xu Sanyuan thought about it seriously and felt that this possibility was quite large.
"Luo Yuhui's situation in Huaibei County is becoming more and more passive, and he has already proposed a rescue to me, how about letting Shen Yan lead the Great Xia Royal Army to attack the White Lotus Sect, so that Shen Yan can avoid Shen Yan impulsively looking for Zhao Wouji, and also avoid the possibility of Zhao Wouji sending someone to assassinate Shen Yan?" Although Xia Qi made the decision to let Shen Yan go to Lingnan in his heart, for some reason, looking at Xu Sanyuan's familiar face, Xia Qi couldn't help asking.
"Your Majesty, Lord Shen's military talent is indeed very high, which can already be judged from the strength of the Great Xia Royal Army, just as Lord Shen said: If an army wants to maintain super high combat effectiveness, it can only be continuously combated, so it is not a good way to let Lord Shen go to Lingnan to support General Luo." Xu Sanyuan heard the emperor's question, and a touch of surprise appeared in his eyes, although the emperor occasionally inadvertently always asked himself some questions to let himself publish, but he has always been able not to publish it, however, this time Xu Sanyuan did not see the temptation in the emperor's eyes, so he said boldly.
"No, Shen Yan went to Lingnan not to support Luo Yuhui, but to control Luo Yuhui, and the command of the White Lotus Sect to be handed over to Shen Yan to be responsible." Hearing Xu Sanyuan's words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Xia Qi's mouth.
"Let Lord Shen restrain General Luo? Lord Shen's official position is not as high as that of General Luo, and General Luo will definitely not obey Lord Shen's orders and dispatches. Hearing the emperor's answer, Xu Sanyuan didn't have to think about it, if Shen Yan was asked to restrain Luo Yuhui, even if Luo Yuhui didn't say anything, but when he started to do things, Luo Yuhui would definitely disobey Yang and Yin, and he would not listen to Shen Yan's dispatch.
"I also thought of this, so I plan to let the old eighteen be the nominal commander, Shen Yan is the waiter of the old eighteen, but in fact, Shen Yan is the commander." Xia Qi saw Xu Sanyuan's reaction, a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly.
"Your Majesty, the slave said something that shouldn't be said, although the eighteenth prince is a prince, his performance in all aspects is very eye-catching now, however, the previous performance of the eighteenth prince is really unbelievable, if the eighteenth prince is allowed to be the commander, will it affect the morale of the army?" Xu Sanyuan heard that the emperor asked Xia Yuanxu to be the commander, his eyes suddenly widened, Xu Sanyuan had already guessed the emperor's attitude towards Xia Yuanxu in his heart, but hearing such an arrangement, Xu Sanyuan subconsciously felt that the emperor was taking a risky move, the key to this move was whether Shen Yan could gain the initiative on the battlefield, and whether Luo Yuhui could obey Shen Yan's dispatch with pleasure and convincingness.
If Shen Yan can do it, then Xia Yuanxu's prestige and reputation will be further improved, but Shen Yan can't do this, let alone Xia Yuanxu, it is estimated that Shen Yan will fall into it.
