The reason given by Xu Ji was too simple, Liu Youzhong felt that there was a lot of fog, he couldn't believe that a strategist went to such great lengths just to save a woman - it can't even be said to be "saving", in Liu Youzhong's eyes, Princess Fangde did not fall into any danger, and refusing to marry into He Rongbu was nothing more than playing with a child's temper.

"The Shen family would never do this." Liu Youzhong muttered.

"Won't it happen?"

Liu Youzhong smiled: "It's nothing, I just thought about it...... Many daughters of the Shen family have married outside the Saiwai, and they have also married many daughters-in-law from He Rongbu, and no one has ever objected to the arrangement of their father and brother, such as Shan Yu's eldest wife, and even took the initiative to choose a husband from He Rong's department, you must know that Qiang Shan Yu had already married a wife at that time......"

"Her surname is Zhou." Xu Ji corrected.

"Zhou and Shen are a family, and even Zhou Yuanbin is a member of the Shen family."

"Big brother thinks Princess Fangde is unreasonable?"

"What's more, she did this to put her family in danger, she didn't help, and she was even involved-" Liu Youzhong suddenly smiled, and felt that he understood something, "Of course, this is a good thing for King Jin, and for the fourth brother...... Probably that's a good thing. ”

"Big brother doesn't believe me after all."

"Faith, the hatred of taking his wife is not shared, but I think with the wisdom of the fourth brother, I will not shoot a single bird with one arrow, there must be a plan of two birds and many birds, am I not wrong?" Liu Youzhong looked at Xu Ji with a smile, believing in his own judgment.

Xu Ji had no choice but to smile and said, "I can't hide anything from my eldest brother." ”

The smile on Liu Youzhong's face quickly disappeared, "But what are the other 'birds'?" The fourth brother must not be for King Jin...... King Liang? It's impossible, King Liang has his appearance, and he can't get into the eyes of the fourth brother. The Sheng family, the Xi family, the fourth brother is not familiar with them. King Ning? Liu Youzhong's eyes lit up, and then dimmed, "It is said that King Ning burned and killed Wu Bing, I don't believe that the fourth brother will forget this revenge." ”

Liu Youzhong thought for a while, his expression gradually relaxed, and he smiled: "There is only one explanation left, only one left, I can't imagine that the fourth brother is such a person." ”

"What kind of people?"

"It's a lover."

Xu Ji laughed out loud, "Big brother's eyes on people are becoming more and more peculiar. ”

"The fourth brother doesn't have to deny it, the fourth brother has a cold face and a warm heart, the so-called affectionate and affectionate person, when you were in the Eastern Capital, you sent away the King of Jin, pardoned the King of Ning, courteously treated the King of Shu, and left the Eastern Capital to the King of Liang...... It's all because of the ruthlessness, as for the Golden Holy Maiden-" Liu Youzhong smiled a little ambiguously, "I guess the fourth brother married her because he was uneasy about the death of the incarnation king." ”

"I married first, and the king was killed."

"That's right, but after the death of the Descendant King, everyone thought that the fourth brother would take advantage of the situation to seize the entire Descendant Army, and even if he didn't kill the Golden Saintess, he should put her under house arrest at home and keep her away from the military power. But how did the fourth brother do it? Instead, she was entrusted with a heavy task, and finally even allowed her to return to Qinzhou with the descending army, but she was not allowed to seek revenge from King Liang. To this day, I heard that the Golden Saintess was trapped in Xijing, and the fourth brother still had to go out of the mountain to help her. ”

"Big brother said that I can't refute it." Xu Ji said with a smile.

The more Liu Youzhong thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense, "What the fourth brother did may be incredible in the eyes of others, but I can understand it." ”

"Big brother understands?"

"Well, the fourth brother is still young, and he has a strong blood, and he takes the relationship between men and women too seriously."

"Well, that's what I am."

"It's nothing." Liu Youzhong behaved very freely about this, "Who hasn't had such an experience? When I first entered Nanshan to study physiognomy, it was also because of a woman...... Far from it. The fourth brother hopes that the states will fight each other, and there is no time to look west about the rebellion in Qinzhou, is that what it means? ”

"Big brother has a good eye." Xu Ji was too lazy to argue and explain.

"The emperor will come tomorrow, once he forms an alliance with Qiangjian Shan Yu, it will not only be a disaster for the Shen family, but also a bad thing for the world. What can the fourth brother do to stop the alliance? ”

"Big brother, let's talk about it first, why is the alliance between the emperor and Shan Yu not conducive to the heroes?"

"This ...... Isn't this obvious, the eastern capital has not been lost for a long time, Tiancheng Yuwei still exists, and what the emperor lacks is nothing more than a large army. He Rongbu has coveted the Central Plains for a long time, and what he lacks is an excuse. The alliance between the two parties can be described as a match made in heaven, and they will inevitably destroy the King of Jin first, and then remove the King of Liang, and then sweep south, and the heroes will either fall or be destroyed, and no one will be an opponent. ”

"After winning the world, who benefits the most?"

"It's hard to say, if the emperor is confused, he will turn his face with Shan Yu after winning the world, but he will definitely lose. If the emperor is smart, he will prepare in advance, and when the time is right, he will get rid of Shan Yu and his cavalry, but the odds of victory are not high. If the emperor is both wise and practical, he will divide the world with the demarcation alone, be tougher, take the river as the boundary, and be weaker, and use the river as the boundary. What will happen beyond my ability to predict is beyond my imagination. ”

Xu Ji arched his hand and said: "The eldest brother is far-sighted, and the situation is admirable after a few years. ”

"After a few years, it's just a guess, and it's important in the present, and the fourth brother can reveal the plan?"

"What the eldest brother just said, it must be the eldest wife's persuasion."

"She's a woman...... Well, whether she came up with it herself or was taught by others, only these words could persuade Qiangjian Shan Yu to give up his decades-long friendship with the Shen family and only form an alliance with the Tiancheng family. ”

Also, the Shen family originally supported He Ronghua to succeed to the throne. Although his people are dead, there must still be remnants of his power, and he can take the opportunity to eradicate the Shen family forces around him if he is allied with the emperor. ”

Liu Youzhong's face changed, "Shan Yu's eldest wife hates it so much, and she doesn't even let go of her own family?" The most poisonous woman's heart, sure enough, is right - fourth brother, it is because of this that I was freed from the love between men and women and was obsessed with physiognomy that I have today's achievements. ”

Xu Ji smiled: "Let me slowly get free." ”

"The eldest wife used these words to persuade Shan Yu, and what words did Tiancheng use to persuade the eldest wife to betray his family?"

"Big brother, you might as well guess too."

Liu Youzhong sighed, "It is estimated that it will not be too difficult, the marriage between the Zhou family and He Rongbu was originally intended to consolidate the friendship, but there are too many people who have married, and they compete with each other." The seventh sister of the Zhou family has high ambitions since she was a child, she chooses her own husband, and when she first marries, she is not even a wife, so she must have been ridiculed, so she holds a grudge and is seen by the messenger of Tiancheng, or she may reveal it herself. ”

Xu Ji himself can't guess more accurately than this, "Big brother can always hit the nail on the head." ”

Liu Youzhong didn't have a smug look on his face, "It's a pity that it's too late, why didn't I see through it earlier, even if it was coming, I had to be reminded by the fourth brother first?" ”

Xu Ji couldn't answer, and he didn't want to answer.

Liu Youzhong thought for a while and muttered: "Zhou Yuanbin made a mistake, it was him, full of confidence, thinking that everything was under control, I was deceived by it, and I didn't see through the truth......"

"Zhou's joining the army is also an unintentional mistake."

Liu Youzhong said coldly: "It's better to say it's stupid, Shan Yu's wife is the daughter of his Zhou family, if he is smarter, he should have seen the clue early - Zhou Qimei has been married for many years, and she will never complain." ”

Liu Youzhong immediately smiled again, "The wood is already in the boat, it's useless to talk about it, let's think more about saving it." ”

"The plan to save is not here."

"What does the fourth brother mean?"

"Is the situation in Qinzhou really good?"

Liu Youzhong smiled bitterly: "Can the fourth brother be more dedicated, since you want to save the princess, let's forget about the Golden Saintess first." ”

"If my eldest brother doesn't want to tell the truth, I can't ...... it."

"What does the fourth brother want to know?"

"The real situation in Qinzhou."

"This ...... I have been here a long time ago, and I don't know much about Qinzhou, most of the news is a few days or ten days ago. ”

"It doesn't matter."

"Uh...... To tell the truth, the situation in Qinzhou was not good, and the Jizhou army originally intended to defect to Bingzhou, but after Yin Fu arrived, they changed their minds and seemed to surrender to the descending army. The Incarnation Army also captured some counties and counties, and was no longer limited to the city of Xijing. Jin Jun ...... According to what I heard, the Jin army has retreated to the state and held the river and mountain checkpoints. ”

"If it is abandoned by He Rong's ministry again, the state will be attacked from both sides."

"With me, I will never let He Rongbu break with Bingzhou, and Qinzhou is initially decided, the descending army and the Jizhou army are united, and they also have suspicions against each other, it is difficult to attack, and it is easy to resist, and the mountains and rivers of Bingzhou are dangerous, and the Jin army is strong and strong, so there is no need to worry."

Xu Ji smiled: "What the eldest brother said is true. ”

Liu Youzhong waited for a while, "How to stop Shan Yu from forming an alliance with the emperor, the fourth brother hasn't said it yet?" ”

"Big brother will say his mind first."

Liu Youzhong waited for a while, "The emperor will come tomorrow, and now there is not much choice but to ......" Liu Youzhong made a move to cut off his head, "The envoys of the two parties met, cut one and made an alliance, this kind of thing happened, right?" ”

"It happened, but the emperor was never killed."

Liu Youzhong smiled and said, "In the fourth brother's place, what else has 'never been'?" ”

"Big brother Hugh thinks so."

"What does the fourth brother mean?"

"I have two plans."

Liu Youzhong's eyes lit up, "I want to hear about it." King Jin will arrive soon, whether the fourth brother has a heart or not, as long as he can prevent He Rongbu from forming an alliance with Tiancheng, King Jin will be grateful. ”

"I'll talk about the things I'm grateful for later. The first plan is to prevent Princess Fangde from marrying into the He Rong Department. ”

"The fourth brother is still ......"

"Listen to me. Tiancheng insisted on sending Princess Fangde to He Rongbu, even if he didn't marry Shan Yu, he was willing, and there must be a conspiracy behind it. ”

"Could it be...... Tiancheng is preparing to get rid of the strong arm Shan Yu early? ”

"Perhaps."

"Not perhaps, but nine times out of ten! Then the princess ......"

"The princess doesn't know yet. She married King Zuo Shenwei as a princess, and the ministers of the court were quite dissatisfied with this, and if King Jin could contact these people, it would be a divisive plan. ”

"It's good, but it's too far."

"The person who can stop this marriage immediately is the eldest wife."

"But why did she ......" Liu Youzhong immediately understood, "She has become Shan Yu's wife, of course she doesn't want to change Shan Yu again." Well, Zhou Yuanbin can still use it again. This is the first plan, but what is the other plan? Preventing marriages does not prevent alliances. ”

"That's why I said the solution wasn't here. King Jin is on his way? ”

"Yes, it will be there in two or three days."

"Well, the eldest brother has to set off immediately to stop King Jin."

"If the king of Jin doesn't come, Shan Yu will have to form an alliance with the emperor more and more......"

"Just get what you need with the emperor, the alliance is irretrievable, and if the king of Jin comes, he will throw himself to death."

"But ......"

"The king of Jin is not without a way out, just lead the army south, even the women and children are with him, then the outside of the fortress must be empty, the king of Jin insists on forming an alliance with him, it is better to attack his lair directly."

"But this will completely offend He Rongbu, and Shan Yu will only form an alliance with the emperor, and there will be no hesitation."

"When I was in the Eastern Capital, the Descendant Army was homesick, why didn't He Rongren have this heart? Soon after He Rongqiang succeeded to the throne, the war outside the Saiwai together, the adults must be disturbed, if he suppressed, he would lose the hearts of the people, if not suppressed, then He Rong people returned to the north one after another, and the alliance with the emperor existed in name only. ”

Liu Youzhong knelt down, "I thank the fourth brother for the great kindness of King Jin." ”
