Chapter 277: Chess Pieces

The rumors of the northern Xinjiang side have gradually spread to Beijing, and some ministers who have lived in Beijing for a long time have no feeling for this, and in their opinion, a small country in northern Xinjiang is really not enough to worry about.

But Xiao Yechen keenly sensed a hint of something wrong from the news from the spies, and as soon as he received the secret report from the spies, he immediately called An Mingxun into the palace.

An Mingxun hurriedly walked to the palace, and happened to meet Du Yan who entered the palace, seeing An Mingxun like this, Du Yan was puzzled: "Brother Mingxun, why are you in such a hurry?" ”

Seeing that it was Du Yan, An Mingxun did not hide it, he only said everything briefly, and said to Du Yan: "I'm afraid something happened in the northern Xinjiang, and the emperor summoned me to discuss this matter." ”

Hearing this, Du Yan was a little surprised, she looked at An Mingxun and said, "How can this be?" Are they sending troops to disrupt our borders again? ”

An Mingxun shook his head with a wry smile: "If this is the case, it is still expected, but for some reason, there has been a change within them, and now the military power of the Northern Xinjiang is not known to anyone, although they have not attacked our border, but we can't predict their next move." ”

While walking, An Mingxun said anxiously.

Hearing this, Du Yan was extremely puzzled, she followed An Mingxun to the imperial study quickly, and still asked: "As far as I know, the troops in the north are not enough to threaten us, why are you so nervous?" Even if Xiao Wenqing did something in it, it didn't have much impact. ”

"Xiao Wenqing's troops are much more than you think, he has many secret guards in his hands, and he has trained many private soldiers in private, and the sum of these private soldiers is also a lot of money."

An Mingxun was extremely patient with Du Yan, and only explained to her many of these joints little by little, Du Yan was not stupid, as soon as she heard this, she understood, she nodded, and said in a low voice: "I know, I'll go to the imperial study with you." ”

Hearing this, An Mingxun only nodded, and then took Du Yan to the imperial study together.

In the imperial study, Xiao Yechen's eyes looked coldly at the folds in front of him, his face was ugly and almost dripping with gloomy, his eyes were full of coldness, and when he heard the transmission, he did not ease for a moment.

His gloomy face changed instantly when he saw Du Yan, and he saw that his eyes were full of happy smiles, and he looked at Du Yan and said, "Yan'er, why are you here." ”

As he spoke, he walked down, directly ignoring An Mingxun on the side, directly took Du Yan's hand, and walked her to the desk.

"Your Majesty, the minister is here to discuss the matter of Northern Xinjiang with you."

Seeing that Xiao Yechen had completely ignored himself, An Mingxun was a little crying and laughing, and he said loudly, his voice was extremely obvious in the hall.

As soon as he heard this, Xiao Yechen was a little stunned, but he quickly reacted

, looked at An Mingxun and said, "You just stand here and say." ”

"You say, I'll just stand aside and listen." Du Yan smiled softly, sat on the side, and looked at Xiao Yechen.

When Xiao Yechen heard this, he nodded, and said, "This is a secret report from the Northern Xinjiang, take a look." ”

After An Mingxun carefully looked at the secret report in his hand, Xiao Yechen stood on the hall and said coldly: "Over there in the northern Xinjiang, it seems that there is a regime change, and I also know the identity of that woman. ”

An Mingxun looked at the secret report in his hand, his face became more and more solemn, and he said at this time: "Xu Xi, the leading prostitute in Jiangnan back then, was never seen again because he was favored by the governor of Jiangnan back then, how could he suddenly appear in Northern Xinjiang?" Or did it become Koldun? ”

This is all written in the secret report, An Mingxun looked at it and said it at the same time, at this time he was extremely shocked, you know, this is an old thing five years ago, if this is the case, then five years ago, this Xu Xi has been sent to Northern Xinjiang, and the people behind this scene have laid out such a big situation five years ago!

"Your Majesty, this incident is very likely to have been done by Xiao Wenqing back then." After thinking carefully in his heart, An Mingxun looked at Xiao Yechen and said very cautiously: "In my opinion, he must have laid out such a situation a long time ago!" ”

"What you say is very true." Xiao Yechen also nodded at this time, he thought of Xiao Wenqing as early as when he saw this secret report, Xiao Wenqing lived in Jiangnan for a period of time five years ago, not to mention, the governor of Jiangnan back then was Xiao Wenqing's cronies, so it all made sense.

Du Yan stood aside and said with a shocked expression: "In this way, Xiao Wenqing actually buried such a chess piece in Northern Xinjiang, he had long expected that there would be today?" ”

"It shouldn't be, it can only be said that Xiao Wenqing is more precautionary, and he was not the most competitive among the many princes at that time, so this is just a retreat left by him, or rather, it is a strategy for him." Xiao Yechen shook his head, and then whispered his guess.

At this time, Du Yan nodded immediately after hearing this, she understood a little, but then said with some doubts: "But this Xu Xi, why would he be so loyal to Xiao Wenqing?" As far as I know, the Khan of Northern Xinjiang is in his forties. ”

As soon as she heard this, Xiao Yechen was also puzzled, Du Yan thought well, Xu Xi is in a place like Northern Xinjiang, Xiao Wenqing has great skills and it is impossible to threaten her, she can go away and fly high.

After thinking about it, Xiao Yechen couldn't figure it out, so he simply said: "Maybe Xu Xi has something in his hand, or Xiao Wenqing has something in his hand that can threaten her life." ”

There is only one statement, Du Yan nodded, but she still had doubts in her heart, but she didn't say it, but wanted to wait until she had a chance to confirm it in the future before discussing.

At this time, An Mingxun said again: "Both."

However, it is almost certain that Beijiang has cooperated with Xiao Wenqing, so what should we do now? The change of regime in northern Xinjiang is a good opportunity for us to start, so it is better to ......"

An Mingxun meant that he would immediately kill the Northern Frontier and eliminate everyone, but Xiao Yechen shook his head at this time and said in a low voice: "No, do you think that Xiao Wenqing will sit and wait for us to attack the Northern Frontier?" He has already made preparations, we must not act rashly, everything will be done in the north of Xinjiang, we will make plans again, and now we will do a good job of defending the border passes. ”

Hearing this, An Mingxun nodded and responded.
