At dawn, the white mist rolls on the surface of the river, making the distant shore mountains faint in a fairyland, covering up the wreckage and ruin left behind by the war.

Six 2,000-stone galleys puffed out their sails and made ripples on the calm river, and the fine waves beat the side of the ship.

Han Qian stood on the side of the boat, standing with his hands in his hands, the cold river wind blew up the sleeves of his robe and crown hair, and flew back, his thin face was as cold as the thin ice in the puddle of the river beach at this moment.

After the middle of the night, there were no warships chasing after him, and there were no large number of warhorses galloping out on the south bank, Yang Qin tensed his nerves all night, relaxed a little at this time, rolled up his robe sleeves and walked out of the porthole, and said: "The third prince should have acquiesced in the fact that we returned to Xuzhou at this time, right?" ”

Of course, having said that, Yang Qin didn't feel that he could completely relax until he actually returned to Xuzhou.

At this time, they still could not know for sure that Yang Yuanpu did not issue a secret order to the soldiers and horses left behind in Yueyang or the local soldiers and horses in Langchen and other prefectures, telling them to set up a card at the mouth of Dongting Lake or set up a card on the narrow Yuan River to intercept them.

In addition, a large number of people in Xuzhou will be arrested and purged if they will be arrested and purged......

Han Qian sighed slightly, although it was not his wish to come to this point, but he was also very excited to think of being able to return to Xuzhou, get together with Zhao Ting'er, and meet his son who had not seen him for several months after he was born.

Although after he leaves, he will leave behind a wolf, and he can't fully predict how the subsequent situation will develop and evolve, but now is not the time to worry about this, useless soldiers will come to block, water will come to cover up, and now he is no longer the angry boy who has just experienced the dream world and lived in fear.

The sound of horses' hooves could be heard faintly from the depths of the fog.

Although the sound of horses' hooves was not dense, but the rush was urgent, Yang Qin was still vigilant, and the three ships in the rear, Kong Xirong, Guo Ke and others also came out in armor, even if they did not directly sail the ship to the north shore, they also commanded the generals to manipulate scorpion crossbows and other weapons to prevent unpreparedness.

"Lord Han, Lord Han, Your Highness has something to say to you, please wait for Zheng Chang!"

More than a dozen fast horses quickly chased to the position next to the fleet, Zheng Chang sat on the back of the bumpy horse, across the river of more than two hundred steps, and shouted vigorously.

After a stick of incense, Zheng Chang boarded the clipper on a raft.

"When I arrived in Fanchang City, I didn't have the opportunity to sit down with Lord Han and drink two glasses of wine, I didn't expect to say goodbye to Lord Han in such a situation, it's really embarrassing!" Zheng Chang boarded the boat and said to Han Qian.

"Han Qian acted willfully and recklessly, and it was really a sin to cause Lord Zheng to run around overnight." Han Qian said.

Looking at Han Qian's eyes as deep as stars, Zheng Chang also felt great pressure inexplicably, but there was no way to tear apart the hypocrisy, and directly negotiate the conditions with Han Qian, or first confide in the words that he had thought about all the way: "If you want to talk about sin, when Chuzhou mentions marriage, we should be able to think that Chuzhou harbors evil intentions, but after all, I am slow to think, I didn't expect that Chuzhou's fundamental intention is to force Lord Han to leave Fanchang." The big mistake has been made, and I ask Lord Han to forgive me and others. ”

"I originally wanted to capture Jinling and return to Xuzhou to continue the filial piety period, but now that Your Highness has all the lords by her side, there is nothing to worry Han Qian about, and I left Fanchang early, so I thought that there was nothing impossible." Han Qian said.

Seeing Han Qian and Zheng Chang's calm appearance, it seemed that they were talking about a very insignificant matter, Xi Ying, who was standing on the side, wanted to roll his eyes, he almost saw each other, can he sit down and talk about the conditions directly?

"Your Highness is also deeply sorry for not being able to see through the traitor early, so that Lord Han suffered such a big grievance, if it weren't for the heavy military situation, His Highness would like to come over in person to see off Lord Han." Zheng Chang said.

Han Qian smiled in his heart, secretly feeling that Yang Yuanpu really had to be measured and brave to see him off, he really wanted to look up to him, and at the moment he was just hypocritically arching his hand towards Fanchang City, and said: "His Royal Highness Lao is thinking about it." ”

"Lord Han returned to Xuzhou, but how to fight Jinling next, but he can't completely stay out of the matter," Zheng Chang took out a brocade from the sleeve of his wide robe, which was the official seal and official robe that Han Qian left in his residence, and said, "Your Highness said that Lord Han is his 'Han Master' for one day, and he will be his 'Han Master' for the rest of his life, and he will always be the advisor of Da Chu to participate in the military." ”

Han Qian smiled and said, "Your Highness, he is serious. ”

However, Zheng Chang handed over the official seal and official robe, and he did not refuse, and asked Xi Ying to collect it for him, which was regarded as leaving a step for both sides to go down.

Next, Zheng Chang talked about the fundamentals, and the fundamental was the disposal of the Zuo Guangde Army and more than 300,000 women and children in Guangde, Langxi, and Anji counties after Han Qian left.

Although there were only more than 10,000 people in the German army of Zuoguang, there were more than 300,000 women and children behind them, and there was great military potential to be tapped.

When Li Pu wanted to force Han Qian to carry out a general mobilization of Zuoguang's German army, he estimated that Zuoguang's German army could be expanded to 25,000 to 30,000 in the shortest possible time.

In addition, Guangde's strategic position is extremely crucial.

Han Qian occupied Guangde before, forcing Gu Zhilong and Yi Fan to defect, and then quickly reversed the overall situation.

At present, the grain needed by the soldiers and horses in Yueyang is mainly transported from eastern and southern Zhejiang through the passage at the northern foot of Fuyu Mountain.

Before thoroughly mastering the Zuoguang German Army and the three counties of Guangde, Yue Yang may not dare to rush to attack Jinling, but Han Qian is at large, and they do not dare to tear their faces to carry out bloody cleansing and suppression of the military attachés and generals of the Zuoguang German Army belonging to the Xuzhou family.

Otherwise, even if they could concentrate their forces to suppress the nearby Zuoguang German army, who knew what Han Qian would do to their stronghold, Hunan Bazhou, after returning to Xuzhou?

At present, only Chai Jian and Zheng Hui have led less than 13,400 people to guard Hunan.

Even if we do not consider the reactions of Zhang Qian and Du Chongtao according to Jingxiang, there are nearly 30,000 rebels who have withdrawn to Yongzhou in the south of Shaoheng Prefecture alone.

The premise of everything is not to destroy the overall situation of the current attack on Jinling.

Only after capturing Jinling will the overall situation really be under their control.

Han Qian looked at the surging river and said, "Those who want to return to Xuzhou, please don't stop Your Highness and you; Those who want to stay, please treat them kindly. ”

The vast majority of people are seeking food and clothing, and regard the southwest corner as a daunting path, and Han Qian does not expect more than 300,000 old and weak women and children to move to Xuzhou.

Besides, there is not so much land in Xuzhou and its surroundings to house so many people - he made such a big compromise, in the final analysis, he is not in a position to resettle so many old and weak women and children, so he can only take a step back.

"Zheng Chang will definitely bring Lord Han's words to His Highness!" Zheng Chang arched his hand, saw that the sun had risen, reached a consensus on the most critical issues, and did not delay any longer, so he took his leave and disembarked and left.

Watching Zheng Chang leave, Xi Ying asked curiously: "It's really strange, Zheng Chang didn't ask Shen Yang and Wang Lin which one is really wrong before leaving?" ”

"Shen Yang is suspicious of Yang Yuanpu, which is more conducive to the interests of the family, what should he do if he wants to understand this issue?" Han Qian said with a smile.

"So, in your letter, you insisted on dragging Shen Yang into the water, because you were worried that after the capture of Jinling, Shen Yang would block the car with his mantis arm to weaken the interests of the family gate valve, thus attracting death?" Xi Ying asked, "It's a pity, Shen Yang probably won't understand your kindness, and he will hate your slander deeply." ”

"I don't do things without losing my heart, I don't care if he appreciates it or not," Han Qian said with a smile, "If they capture Jinling, the first one will force the princess Wang Chan'er to hand over power, right?" I just hope that he, the little old man, can do more and not fall into this first wave of political disputes. ”

"By the way, let's just leave, and the people of the world will soon know that you were forced to leave for the marriage contract, and the girl of the Wang family will only become more embarrassed," Xi Ying sighed lightly, "I always suspect that when she came to Fanchang, she already knew that she would be used by you like this." ”

Han Qian pursed his lips, but finally didn't say anything......

…………

The white morning mist rolled in the courtyard, and although it did not reach the point where you could not see your fingers, the mulberry elm trees outside the courtyard wall also became faint.

Yun Puzi has no official position, after all, he can't stay in the inner house, bid farewell to the county lord of Qingyang, and he returned to a side courtyard in Dongjing Lane.

Yun Puzi was old, and was pulled over by the county lord of Qingyang for interrogation for a long time in the early morning, and only came back at this time, he was already sleepy, he yawned and pushed the door open and walked into the yard, and when he entered the house, he saw that the stove was extinguished, and the house was cold, so he took out the fire fold, thinking about lighting the stove to drive away the cold.

After the two apprentices who followed him were killed by Yao Xishui, Yun Puzi excused themselves by saying that they had something to do and left Fanchang City, except for temporarily asking a blind military man from the county lord of Qingyang to guard the gate, there was no one else around to serve him for the time being.

The firewood and grass that started the fire were a little wet, Yun Puzi knocked the fire fold for a long time and didn't light it, and when he thought about giving up, he suddenly realized that there was something behind him, and when he turned around, he saw Yao Xishui sitting quietly on the bed, and I don't know if she had been there before he entered the house.

"Why is Miss Yao so interested, come to me so early?" Yun Puzi was startled, glanced at the cold short sword in Yao Xi's sailor's hand, and squinted his eyes and asked.

"What benefits did Han Qian promise you?" Yao Xishui stared at Yun Puzi coldly, it seemed that Yun Puzi moved slightly, and the short sword in her hand would run to the door in front of him.

"Miss Yao, what are you talking about?" Yun Puzi narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked with his hand propped up on the table.

"Han Qian has lacked an excuse to leave Fanchang from beginning to end, how can you tell me to believe you?" Yao Xishui stared at Yun Puzi and asked.

Yun Puzi smiled bitterly, sat down at the table, and asked, "What is the reason for this?" Miss Yao must kill me, is it really so casual that she doesn't bother to find a decent excuse? Reiterate the marriage contract between Wang Wenqian's daughter and Han Qian, but Miss Yao, you forced me to mention it in front of the county lord of Qingyang. Now that Han Qian has slipped away, Yang Yuanpu is likely to be suspicious of the county lord of Qingyang, and the county lord of Qingyang sent someone to call me over in the early morning, interrogated me, and almost hung me up and tortured me. The county lord of Qingyang treated me like this, and I also admitted it, whoever called us is not Han Qian's opponent, but Miss Yao, if you say this, it is really impossible for Lao Dao to defend himself with a hundred mouths. Miss Yao, you ask yourself if you are sorry, where is there such a suspicious truth in this world? You must wonder who is suspicious, I also want to ask Miss Yao, what about you, did you get any benefits from Han Qian in private? ”

"You really happened to visit my eldest brother on a whim that day?" Yao Xishui didn't believe that Han Qian's departure from the city and Fanchang was a temporary intention, but it must be said that these were conspiracy arranged by Han Qian a long time ago, but she took the initiative to find Yun Puzi to plot about the marriage contract.

Of course, there is also a possibility, that is, when Han Qian brought Wang Jun to Fanchang City, he had already expected that they would make a fuss about the marriage contract, and he Fanchang City was just waiting for them to bite the hook all these years.

However, this does not mean that there is anything wrong with Yun Puzi's body, Yao Xishui came over later, mainly because she had an intuition deep in her heart, feeling that Yun Puzi was not reliable, and wanted to see Yun Puzi's reaction in person.
