This young man, who has actually joined the East Palace for only a few months, is innocent, witty, and more importantly, his achievements are enough to be supported by most young civil and military generals and officials, so he naturally forms a public opinion that cannot be ignored.

Especially the leaders of the younger generation such as Xiao Shilian and Pei Zilie have always stood on Li Xinchen's side, which of course makes Li Xinchen's words even more impossible to ignore.

also understood what role he played in the entire East Palace system, so when his eyes were focused on him, Li Xinchen did not shirk, and said in a low voice at the moment: "Although there is such a possibility, but intuition tells that this possibility is not big." ”

"Oh?" Zhou Qu and Xiao Maha both looked at it curiously.

Although Wei Chi Hui is a veteran of the Northern Dynasty, he has been mainly responsible for the strategy of the Northern Qi Dynasty over the years, and the last time he fought with the Southern Dynasty can be regarded as the time to attack Bashu, so in fact, whether it is Zhou Cheng as a civil official or Xiao Maha as a military attaché, there are not many opportunities to deal with Yu Chi Hui, and the more knowledge about him comes from hearsay and this short and not much suspense Battle of Jiangling.

Compared with Zhou Qu and others, Li Xinchen knows even less about Wei Chi Yuan, but at least he knows more about Yu Chi Yuan's performance in history that Zhou Qu and others cannot know. Li Xinchen doesn't think that this veteran, who has always been upright and steady, hooks up with Chen Shuling, and more importantly, is collusion with the Northern Dynasty really good for Chen Shuling?

After considering the words, Li Xinchen said slowly: "For the Northern Dynasties, maybe we are happy to see contradictions and struggles between us and the Yangzhou Assassin History, but this does not mean that they are still willing to support the Yangzhou Assassin History, and then support a puppet-like Chen Guo like supporting the pseudo-Liang." ”

Li Xinchen's words seemed to be a little disrespectful to the Chen Dynasty, but the people present were thinking carefully about what he meant, where could they care so much?

After a pause, Li Xinchen then said: "What's more, for the Yangzhou Assassin History, if he ascends to the throne with the support of the barbarians of the Northern Dynasty, what is the difference between him and Xiao Yue, who does not have much real power in his hands?" In the end, being this emperor is not as comfortable as being an idle prince. ”

The entire hall fell silent as Li Xinchen's words fell, but after a while, Xiao Maha opened his mouth to break the somewhat awkward and nervous silence:

"The barbarians of the Zhou State have now unified the north, and there is really no need to bother to support a puppet."

Xiao Maha's words are a bit nonsense no matter how you look at them, but they made several people present subconsciously glance at each other, and they all showed a relaxed look.

In the final analysis, the establishment of Western Liang was because the Northern Zhou did not have the strength to completely defeat Southern Chen, and even because of the containment of Northern Qi at that time, Southern Chen could even maintain a certain advantage over Northern Zhou on the Jingzhou line, so Northern Zhou had to support a puppet regime as a buffer, and when necessary, it could use this as an excuse to send troops to Jiangling to rescue.

For example, nine years ago, the Northern Zhou Dynasty marched into Jiangling for the purpose of protecting the Western Liang, thus effectively avoiding the embarrassment of "the division is unknown".

And in history, when the Sui Dynasty formed an overwhelming advantage over Nan Chen, as a puppet regime, Xiliang naturally had no meaning of existence, and disappeared with Yang Jian's words.

Therefore, in Li Xinchen's view, as the armies of Southern Chen and Northern Zhou successively went south, the war between the two sides was about to rise from the original local conflict to a full-scale war, which means that it will be a situation of endless death.

And more importantly, for Chen Shuling, what he wanted from beginning to end was power, whether it was in the form of emperor, regent, or other forms. If he is really allowed to be a puppet with the support of the Northern Zhou people, then he might as well be his Yangzhou assassin honestly.

After all, as long as Chen Shuling admits defeat, it is naturally impossible for the East Palace to really attack an idle prince with a lot of influence and prestige, as long as he sends someone to watch him and not cause any trouble.

"So this time it's a coincidence?" Zhou Qu muttered, somewhat disappointed and confused. In fact, there is no need to use interrogative sentences, Zhou himself already knows the answer to this question.

Obviously, this complicated and confused relationship also made him dizzy, and he didn't know how to determine the various connections for a while, so he could only throw out the question, or even the conclusion, neatly.

Li Xinchen nodded slightly, psychologically he did not exclude Chen Shuling from hooking up with the Northern Dynasty, and even had great expectations for this, but no matter the secret agents and chess pieces around Chen Shuling, or the spies who were ambushed in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, they did not find any clues that the two sides might cooperate, otherwise as long as they could catch a line of evidence, the East Palace could directly knock Chen Shuling to the ground.

Presumably, it was not only Li Xinchen, but everyone present had such thoughts, otherwise Zhou Qu would not have been able to show a disappointed look just now.

But Li Xinchen never dared to think of Chen Shuling as simple, this is a difficult and deadly opponent. In fact, in addition to these reasons, there is another reason Li Xinchen did not say, but he believes that everyone present knows it.

That's Chen Ji.

Because when the internal contradiction turns into an external struggle, Chen Ji, who has been sitting on the throne and watching the tiger fight, will definitely not stand still. After all, no matter how much he fought before, it was his own people, if Chen Shuling colluded with the Northern Zhou Dynasty, it would be treason, and Chen Ji would never allow his dynasty to be handed over to Chen Shuling.

No matter how stupid Chen Shuling is, he will understand this truth, and naturally it is impossible to take such a decision. Whether it is Cong's rebellion against Deng Qing and other generals led by the prince's guard, or the collusion with Lingnan and the training of black-clothed killers, Li Xinchen can see this guy's ruthlessness and meticulousness, and naturally he doesn't believe that he will stupidly violate Chen Xu's bottom line.

However, although it has been determined that this time it is just a coincidence, it still makes Li Xinchen more vigilant. He didn't know how Wei Chi Yuan made his judgment, but he had to be more cautious about this veteran of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

After all, being able to make a decisive move at the right time shows that Wei Chi Yu is not old enough to be dull in thinking, and he is still the famous general who fought in Sichuan and Shu many years ago!

Squinting his eyes slightly, Li Xinchen looked at Xiao Maha who was contemplating. He knew that Xiao Maha had passed this battle, and he could also clearly understand what was difficult for Yu Chi Hui to deal with, and after Li Xinchen left, it was Xiao Maha and Yu Chi Hui who faced each other head-to-head alone.

Li Xinchen didn't even know for a while whether he should be glad that he didn't have to fight wits and courage with Yu Chi Er so tiredly, or whether he should worry about whether Xiao Maha was Yu Chi Ie's opponent.

However, Li Xinchen also believes that if history continues to move forward according to the original track, then there may be a turnaround in the future.

Yu Wenyun ascended the throne, and I am afraid that no one will be able to contain the contradictions between Yang Jian, Wei Chi Hui and others.

Qi Wang Yu Wenxian, after all, is not Yu Wenyong······
