Feng Juniang stayed with the county lord of Huanyan for many days, and she was not qualified to write on her behalf, but she had read a lot of official documents, and she knew more about the situation in the four directions than Xu Ji, but she was trapped in the text, and after being awakened, she could suddenly realize it.

Seeing that Gongzi did not deny it, Feng Juniang knew that she had guessed correctly, so she was very excited and sat down again, "The officers and soldiers have already surrounded Xijing, but they have not launched an attack for a long time, and there are many reasons, one of which is to wait for the arrival of the state army." Only 20,000 of the 100,000 troops arrived in Xijing on time, and the remaining troops were said to be in the rear to ensure the safety of the grain route. ”

"The troops of Jing, Huai, and Luo have not yet arrived, and there is not only one state." Xu Ji reminded and encouraged Feng Juniang to continue to think.

"That's right, the matter of pacifying Qinzhou, it seems that only Jizhou is the most concerned, the main force of the Xi family in Jingzhou is placed in Hanzhou, and the King of Liang in Luozhou claims that the place is unstable, and he didn't send many soldiers at all, Huaizhou has sent troops, but every time he captures a city, he must leave troops to guard it, and less than 30,000 people rushed to Xijing to participate in the siege——"

Feng Juniang recalled the many official documents she had read, "No matter what, Yecheng at least knows where the troops of these three states are, and the states are different, the Shen family's army is not known except for the 20,000 people in Xijing, and the rest of the soldiers will go unknown, saying that they will clear the descendant army in the rear, or they may quietly return to Jinyang, or even approach Jizhou!" ”

Feng Juniang gasped, "That's why Gongzi said such things to Mr. Sun, but I still don't understand a little, the Jizhou army was in the early division, although it can guard against a sneak attack in the state, but what does it have to do with He Rong's department?" ”

"I didn't have a chance to see the new order of the He Rong Ministry, but judging from what he did, the ambition is not small, people like him will only form an alliance with the strong, if Yecheng is attacked and can't protect itself, he will be disliked by the He Rong Ministry."

"Wait, how did Xindanyu show his ambition? The marriage with the king of Jibei was decided by Lao Danyu, and He Rongqiang's arm just admitted it, I didn't see anything special. ”

Xu Ji smiled: "There is more to this than this. He Rongbu's previous election of new Shan Yu will go through a battle between open and secret, which lasts for months or even years, and He Rong's strong arm has been recognized in a very short time, indicating that he has already gained power, and marrying Yecheng is likely to be his idea for Lao Shan Yu. ”

"So the Sons of the World will be his own sister."

"Hmm." Xu Ji nodded.

Feng Juniang thought about it for a while, and many incombibles were gradually figured out, "Everyone said that He Rongbu and the Shen family in Bingzhou have been married for generations, like a family, and suddenly married Yecheng, in fact, they don't want to see the Shen family dominate, so they want to support Jizhou." If I am the new Shan Yu of He Rongbu, with strong ambitions, and I don't want to live outside the bitter cold all the time, but I am not ready for a while, then the most favorable situation is the chaos in the Central Plains, and the more fierce the competition between the heroes, the more important He Rongbu will be. ”

Feng Juniang frowned, still confused, but didn't ask, but thought about it herself, "He Rongbu hopes that the two states of Hezhou and Hebei will compete with each other, but if one side is too weak to support it, they will not intervene, but may support the strong side and get a piece of the pie, for example, last year, He Rongbu and Jizhou attacked and merged with Jizhou, once the Shen family's army returned to Merge in time, revealing a desperate battle, He Rongbu immediately retreated. ”

"At present, Jizhou is a little stronger, but the state is not weak, and He Rongbu is flattered by both sides and does not support one side. The Shen family knew He Rongbu's mind best, so they wanted to use a sneak attack to capture Jizhou in one fell swoop, leaving He Rongbu with no choice. How much will the Shen family pay in the future? Will you give up half of Jizhou? ”

"King Jin is not a short-sighted person, and he will never give up his territory easily, but how to satisfy He Rongbu, I can't guess now."

Feng Juniang got up, still half-believing in her heart, "If Bingzhou really sends troops to attack Yecheng, Gongzi just knows it, if not, it is that Gongzi thinks too much - no, it's not that Gongzi thinks too much, but Gongzi deliberately provokes Yecheng and Jinyang in order to save the Xijing Descending Army." ”

"That's why Lord Huanyan asked you to ask for an understanding." Xu Ji said with a smile.

"But I didn't ask to understand, from the bottom of my heart, I think Gongzi has the intention of saving the Golden Holy Maiden."

"Haha, you don't have to ask, just tell the truth what you and I are talking about, and Lord Huanyan has his own conclusion."

Feng Juniang sighed, "You two are too smart, it may not be a good thing." Jizhou has already transferred back some of its troops, if everything is as expected by the prince, the big county lord keeps Yecheng, the Shen family is forced to retreat, and the two states become a check and balance, then wouldn't the little county lord really have to marry the barbarian king? ”

"So it seems."

"It's really not good, Childe will use the method I said - since Childe can have a round house with the Golden Saintess, there should be no more feared women in this world."

Xu Ji shook his head with a smile, "Have you ever thought about it, Mrs. Feng, why can you marry a husband without being blamed?" ”

"My reputation has long been ruined, and Childe thinks I'm not blamed?"

"If someone else remarries frequently, it will ruin more than just reputation."

Feng Juniang admitted this and smiled slightly, "Because I have a good look, there are always people who want to get me, and I wish my husband died early." ”

"That's the reason, if I can't stop the marriage of Lord Fangde with clever tricks, it will be tantamount to losing my 'good looks', but I will have to find a new husband."

Feng Juniang finally understood that Gongzi was able to stay in Siguo Valley, firstly, he had an old relationship with the Yecheng rulers, and secondly, he was good at using tricks, and he was deeply valued, and people like him did not have the qualifications to be "pampered and arrogant".

"Childe continue to think of a way, I'm poor."

Feng Juniang returned to Yecheng before dark and told the county lord Huanyan all the content of the conversation, without hiding a word.

The county lord of Huanyan listened silently, "According to the report of the spies, outside the mouth of the flying fox, the state army has accumulated a large amount of grain and grass, and the intention is unknown. ”

Feihukou is one of the important passages between Hebei and Jizhou, and the Bingzhou army accumulates grain and grass there, which obviously has the intention of entering Jizhou eastward.

"In this way, Childe really guessed right!"

"He is not guessing, but he is familiar with the King of Jin, he is right, it is always important to figure out people's hearts."

"How does the county lord respond? Sitting in Yecheng? Send troops to support the Flying Fox Mouth? Preemptively, attacking and annexing states? ”

The county lord of Huanyan shook his head lightly, "Don't do anything, just let Bingzhou know that Yecheng is prepared, and the King of Jin will give up the sneak attack and maintain a superficial friendship with Jizhou." ”

"He Rongbu is most happy to see such a situation."

"Well, He Rongbu must be made happy, this is the top priority."

Feng Juniang hung her head and was silent, and the county lord of Huanyan guessed what was on her mind, "Do you think I'm too flattering to the aliens?" ”

"I'm a shallow person, how dare I talk about the foresight of the county lord?"

"It's okay to discuss it occasionally, in short, now is definitely not the time to offend He Rongbu, the lord of Fangde must marry He Rong Pingshan, King Jibei and Yu Shizi both understand this truth. Xu Gongzi wants to use clever tricks to stop this marriage, it's good, I'm looking forward to his tricks. ”

The county lord of Huan Yan showed a hint of a smile, although there were strong enemies on all sides, she was still extremely interested in this small battle between herself and Xu Ji.

In front of the county lord of Huanyan, Feng Juniang was cautious, and seeing that she seemed to be in a good mood, she asked carefully: "Does it have to be the county lord of Fangde?" We're not...... Is there another princess? ”

The county lord of Huanyan was indeed in a better mood, and explained: "One is the princess who has lost power, and the other is the county lord who has gained power, of course He Rongbu has to choose the latter." Xindan Yu was determined to see Yu Shizi as the emperor and marry his sister, so he naturally asked the king of Jibei to come and go. ”

"I see." Feng Juniang sympathized with the little county lord in her heart, and could only sigh silently.

"Also, He Rong Pingshan also insisted on marrying the lord of Fangde, and he had a lot of complaints about Xu Gongzi."

"It's because he wants to forcibly take Childe away, and he doesn't allow Childe to ...... No way, he is a barbarian king, and he can blame anyone if he wants. Alas, just ...... It's just a pity that the county lord of Fangde, she is young and fierce, and she marries outside the Saiwai, I am afraid that it is rare to have a good death. ”

"Tiancheng is overturned, the royal family is in danger, all my descendants of the Zhang family must do their part, no matter how young they are, they must mature as soon as possible."

"Yes, the county lord is right, I will say that I am shallow, it is all a woman's opinion."

"Hey, we're all women." The county lord of Huanyan paused for a moment, "Tomorrow, if Yu Shizi can bring the county lord of Fangde back smoothly, everything will be fine, if something happens, you have to go to Siguo Valley again." ”

"Childe is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, he said to find a way to ......"

"Not to him, but to Lord Fonde, who will listen to you. Not only do you have to persuade her to return to the city, but you also have to persuade her to try to please her husband after marrying outside the Saiwai, where her enemies are not her own family, nor He Rongpingshan, but the generations of noble women who have married in the past. ”

"I ...... The Lesser Princess...... It's not that I shirk it, but I really have more than enough heart and not enough power. ”

Lord Huanyan smiled and said, "You have done Lord Fangde a great favor, and you have so many experiences, you will definitely be able to convince her to change her mind." ”

Feng Juniang's face was slightly red, it turned out that she had helped the little county lord escape from the palace, and the county lord Huanyan had already known, "I will do my best, the person that the little county lord relies on is none other than Xu Gongzi, if the prince has no clever plan, the little county lord will persuade some." ”

"When he was assassinated, Xu Ji didn't care about his own safety, and when he was defending the eastern capital, Xu Ji had hundreds of thousands of anti-thieves to help, and now he is reluctant to help himself, and he has no external help -" Huan Yan refused to say to death, "If he can really come up with a plan, he can make He Rongbu return satisfied, and things may take a turn for the better." ”

"But the person who came to ask for a kiss is He Rongpingshan......" Feng Juniang smiled bitterly, she couldn't think of any way.

"Maybe he really has a way, I hope so, let him stay in Siguo Valley, I annoy a lot of people, I have to show everyone a suitable reason."

Feng Juniang's heart trembled slightly, Gongzi was right, his value was all in "ingenuity", if he didn't have this, he would lose the most important protector - Feng Juniang vaguely knew that the matter of the round house itself would annoy the big county lord, and her previous thoughts were still too simple.

"With so many people under Yu Shizi, he will definitely be able to win a big victory tomorrow and bring back the little county lord smoothly." Feng Juniang had to think about herself first, and even regretted a little reckless act of sending the little county lord out of the city in the first place.

"It was better to do so." Lord Huanyan's expression gradually became serious, and he repeated, "It's better to be like this. It would be too disappointing for the descendants of the Zhang family to have a different heart at this time. ”

Feng Juniang didn't understand what "different heart" meant, and the county lord of Huanyan had no intention of explaining, "Please ask Mr. Sun and Lou Ji to come over, there should be a solution to the matter in Jiangdong." ”
