Yue Qianqiu, who has been to Beiyan personally, of course knows that compared to Emperor Dawu, who only has one single seedling, the much younger Emperor Beiyan really has many sons, so the Son of Heaven is not to mention that he is like Emperor Dawu who is more indulgent to the little fat man, he is simply a bad person who turns his face and kills at every turn.

The former crown prince was killed, the other princes were not good or degraded or closed, and the current crown prince and the third prince were also treated coldly back then, and the purpose of this canonization does not seem to be very simple now, anyway, it is purely a father who does not treat his son as a human being.

It is precisely because of this that who are the so many princes of Beiyan, Yue Qianqiu understands, what are the origins of these people, and what forces they have, he also understands, but what are their abilities...... I'm sorry, he really can't say it!

It's like hearing the name of the sixth prince Yong'an Junwang at this time, his first reaction is exactly - it seems that Yue Xiaosi played one of a lot of royal relatives on the Azure Pavilion?

And after this nonsense thought, he thought to himself angrily and funny that the title of the prince of Beiyan was based on the size of the power and favor of the mother's family, and he was not even a prince, but just a county king who had been waved at by Yue Xiaosi...... Needless to say, nine times out of ten, it was a puppet who was pushed to the front desk.

Thinking about it this way, he quickly put aside this bit of divergent thinking for the time being, pulled Liu Fangyuan behind him over, and saw him saluting his father in a sneering manner, but Liu Jingxuan just nodded flatly, he called a guard, and pushed Liu Fangyuan again: "Okay, let someone take you to the temporary station to rest and recuperate first, and then enter the field early tomorrow morning." ”

Seeing that Liu Fangyuan was amnesty, he immediately greeted the others, followed by Hulala, a large group of people left under the guidance of the guard, Yue Qianqiu glanced at Liu Jingxuan, who seemed to have no concern for his son, and when he nodded with a smile and turned around to lead the way, he said without looking back: "General Liu, Ah Yuan worked hard all the way to Bazhou, you were too cold just now, right?" ”

"With official duties, it is natural that the relationship between father and son should be put back. What's more......" Liu Jingxuan paused as he spoke, and the always calm and solemn expression on his face was all gone, replaced by undisguised annoyance, "Although General Yan broke up the formation before, it was really child's play, but he actually fell to the third-to-last, which is really too wasteful!" ”

Yue Qianqiu just said that to Liu Fangyuan, but it was just to trick people into going to the field to be a door god for the little fat man, and using Liu Jingxuan's father was just an excuse to scare people, but I didn't expect Liu Jingxuan to really care about this kind of small ranking that is not a competition at all. Fortunately, Liu Jingxuan was behind him, and he couldn't see his sneering expression, and he could still have a little more reaction time.

He originally wanted to say a few good words for Liu Fangyuan, but after thinking about it, he still gave up this plan and simply diverted the topic neatly: "I said General Liu, you personally make a trip, I'm afraid it's not just for Beiyan to have a new emperor, right?" ”

"Naturally not, that's for outsiders." Liu Jingxuan's voice was very low, and even Yue Qianqiu, who was a step in front of him, had to listen attentively, so that he could not miss a word, "The news that Kangshang Palace came to offer the six seals of the Son of Heaven is already known to Beiyan, so the new monarch of Beiyan ...... Coming to Nanjing in person, the royal drive in person. ”

Even if Yue Qianqiu calculates that he is afraid that there will be a war next, Bazhou is likely to become the front line of contention, however, the news revealed by Liu Jingxuan is really a little too exciting. He stopped suddenly, and then turned around neatly to face Liu Jingxuan, who had a calm face behind him, and asked with a stunned face: "Imperial Driver's Expedition?" Are you sure it's not a joke? ”

"I hope it's a joke too." Liu Jingxuan replied with a straight look, and then said concisely, "This is not the place to speak, I will talk in detail when I see His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Yue Qianqiu also knew that although there were many guards here, there were many people in the end, and even if he lowered his voice to speak, it was difficult to ensure that it would be secret, so he didn't ask in detail at the moment, turned around and continued to lead the way in front. When he took Liu Jingxuan to the door of the study in the Taishou Mansion, he happened to see Zhu Hanqing climbing on the ladder himself, hanging a plaque that had obviously just dried the paint.

Originally, when Zhang Qian was in office, there was naturally an inscription plaque in the study, but the dignified prince was stationed, and the traces of Zhang Zhang's big stroke were naturally urgently replaced by the Taishou Mansion, and the little fat man had not had time to pay attention to this kind of trivial matter before. Therefore, Liu Jingxuan, who has been in and out several times, couldn't help but look at the handwriting with a little immature plaque.

Dingbeiju ...... It's really simple and straightforward, which is very in line with the style of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. However, I heard that Xiao Jingxian was in the palace in Jinling City, and the main hall was called Zhengbei Hall, which complemented the current Dingbei Residence.

Zhu Hanqing hung up the plaque, looked back and found that Liu Jingxuan was coming, and hurriedly jumped down directly, stepped forward and raised his hand to salute. After Liu Jingxuan returned the salute very politely, he was about to ask Zhu Hanqing how he was doing in the Taishou Mansion, but he saw that the door curtain was suddenly pulled up, revealing the familiar face of the little fat man.

"General Zhu, why have you been hanging for so long? If it's not good, wait for Qianqiu to come back...... Hey, General Liu is here? ”

Compared with when he set off from Jinling, the little fat man was obviously thinner, so that he actually didn't look long. Seeing that Liu Jingxuan hurriedly saluted, he glared at Yue Qianqiu, who had not reported in time, with a disgusted look, and then stepped forward to help Liu Jingxuan with a smile.

"General Liu doesn't need so much courtesy, and there are no outsiders. You see, on weekdays, General Zhu Xiaoxiao comes in and out of me, and I also order him to be casual. When you go out, the etiquette is simple, and the big things are important. With these high-sounding words in his mouth, the little fat man thanked Liu Jingxuan after seeing him straighten up, and then he let go of his hand and took a step back, and asked with a smile, "What news is General Liu coming for?" ”

Whether it is the movement on the Jinling side or the movement on the Beiyan side, he is very concerned!

Liu Jingxuan saw Yue Qianqiu and motioned him to say directly, and only then did he repeat the news he had just mentioned to him. Sure enough, just like Yue Qianqiu's reaction, the little fat man also shouted after a moment of initial sluggishness: "Is that little emperor crazy? ”

As soon as these words came out, Yue Qianqiu had to cough, and then reminded very kindly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, first of all, my Great Wu did not recognize the new monarch of Northern Yan, and the Emperor of Northern Yan did not die, so that is a puppet emperor." Secondly, the sixth prince of Beiyan sounded several times lower than the third prince, but in fact he was only seven months younger than the third prince. Well, I remember that the princes in the third, fourth, fifth and sixth ranks were all in the same year, so he was not very young. As far as I can remember, he's three months older than you. ”

The little fat man didn't expect Yue Qianqiu to raise the bar with himself on this kind of issue, and suddenly glared at him fiercely with anger, and then said impatiently: "Okay, it's the puppet emperor!" Did that puppet emperor go crazy just after he ascended the throne? At best, he only mastered the one-third of an acre of land near Shangjing, and he dared to claim to be the royal driver? He thought that those elite soldiers in Northern Yan and Southern Xinjiang would listen to him? ”

This is the question that Yue Qianqiu didn't have time to ask Liu Jingxuan just now. At this time, since he was preempted by the little fat man, he was not in a hurry to show his doubts, but just waited for Liu Jingxuan's answer with a smile.

On the road just now, Liu Jingxuan felt that it was not appropriate to talk about it, and at this time, he would not sell Guanzi again, right?

Although he frowned, as if he still felt that it was not suitable to talk about such a confidential military affairs at the gate of Dingbeiju, but seeing that Zhu Hanqing had already gestured and ordered those guards to retreat outside the door, and he was also taking a few steps back as a last warning, Liu Jingxuan realized that he did not need to be so vigilant and careful according to his usual habits.

He pondered for a moment, and finally said in a deep voice: "Northern Yan and Southern Xinjiang, in fact, is Nanjing Dao, and now the Nanjing guards are openly expressing their support for the puppet emperor. Although it was just Yue Qianqiu who said that just now, he corrected the title. Seeing that Yue Qianqiu and the little fat man were all stunned, he continued, "However, Gu'an, Yongqing, and Anci all claim to be traitors. ”

When Yue Qianqiu went north before, he urgently familiarized himself with the geography of the mountains and rivers of Beiyan, and then followed Xiao Jingxian to learn a few lessons in the Wuying Pavilion, although he still remembered all the cities on the huge territory of Beiyan clearly, but the three cities that were closest to Bazhou and belonged to Nanjing Dao, he still would not forget.

Therefore, he immediately took a light breath and said, "Before, Xiao Jingxian said that there was a secret decree of the Northern Yan Emperor, and he wanted to order the soldiers and horses of Southern Xinjiang to eliminate the King of Rebellion...... Wouldn't it be the three cities that claim to be traitors? ”

"This has to be asked by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ask King Jin." Liu Jingxuan's eyes suddenly turned sharp, and he said with a solemn expression, "Although there are those three cities as a barrier to Bazhou, if the puppet emperor of Northern Yan is really desperate, he will rush to Nanjing of Northern Yan immediately, and then order the army to go south, those three small cities are afraid that they will not last long." So, if possible, the minister means that the first strike is stronger! ”

Yue Qianqiu guessed that the next big war would start, but he didn't guess that the puppet emperor of Beiyan, who was pushed to the throne, would dare to go on a personal expedition, and he didn't expect that Liu Jingxuan would choose not to stick to it, but to attack in the face of such news! Therefore, he glanced at the little fat man who couldn't make up his mind, and didn't speak rashly.

And Zhu Hanqing, who pricked up one ear to listen there, finally couldn't help it. He turned his head and said loudly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, there are the six seals of the Northern Yan Son of Heaven, plus the imperial decree of the Northern Yan Son of Heaven in the hands of His Royal Highness the King of Jin, there is indeed a chance to win the attack!" The minister is willing to defeat the enemy vanguard and make a military order! You must know that Beiyan Nanjing Road must be unstable at this time, this is a great opportunity! ”

The little fat man was a little distraught by this series of news, and conservative and radical thoughts clashed and confused in his mind, so that it was impossible for him to make a decision at once. It took a long time before he reluctantly spoke: "The stakes are very high, you have to think about it." ”

"The soldiers are fast, and I ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to make a decision as soon as possible." Liu Jingxuan lowered his head deeply, then glanced at Yue Qianqiu, who seemed to be in a daze, and then reminded, "General Xuanlong Siyan sent an urgent report, he has already entered Beiyan. With the spy intelligence of the Xuanlong Division, even if it goes deep into Beiyan, our army is quite sure. ”

The little fat man is really stunned. Soon, he turned around and yelled at Dingbeiju, who seemed to be motionless: "Dai Zhanning, you just talked to me for so long, why didn't you say that cousin he actually went to Beiyan?" ”

Dai Zhanning, who had not come out of the house just now, opened the curtain at this time and revealed his figure. Seeing Yue Qianqiu's face full of sympathy, Liu Jingxuan looked at him with some concern, Zhu Hanqing wanted to speak and stopped, as if he wanted to intercede but was a little afraid to intercede, so he arched his hand and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just asked the minister what he saw and heard along the way, and the minister didn't have time to talk about General Yan'......."

The little fat man glared at Dai Zhanning with a tiger face, and when he couldn't say any more, he left him and asked Yue Qianqiu: "I don't believe it, Qianqiu, you don't know it now!" ”

Yue Qianqiu saw that the little fat man was in a hurry, and immediately forgot to call him a lonely widow, but in the face of the little fat man's question, his face couldn't help but dim a little, and then sighed and said: "When I met them at the city gate, I immediately asked about the whereabouts of the master, and I was hit on the head. ”

The meaning of your words is the same as Dai Zhanning, doesn't it mean that I didn't ask? I just thought that Yan Xu was still lagging behind, and I didn't go with you, where did I think that people would be so bold and go directly to Beiyan!

The little fat man only felt aggrieved and annoyed, and once again gave birth to a kind of loneliness that was excluded from others. He turned around angrily and went straight back to the house, forgetting to even say hello to Liu Jingxuan. Seeing this scene, thinking that the little fat man had been acting very well before, Yue Qianqiu didn't know that the tight string of the little fat man was about to break, so he nodded at Liu Jingxuan immediately.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was angry with General Yan, but let General Liu suffer from the pond fish. Please come back first, after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made a decision, he will hear back to you in three moments. ”

Liu Jingxuan took a deep look at the door curtain that was swaying slightly, and finally nodded, but solemnly said deeply to the door curtain: "In this case, the minister will retire first, and ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to make a decision as soon as possible." ”

Seeing Liu Jingxuan straighten up and stride away, Zhu Hanqing glanced at the quiet room, and finally hurriedly left a sentence I will send General Liu, and immediately rushed to chase Liu Jingxuan. As soon as he left, Dai Zhanning glanced at Yue Qianqiu with hesitation, then glanced at the door, and was about to ask in a low voice if he wanted to go in to see the prince, but he didn't expect Yue Qianqiu to come up and directly put his shoulder.

"Our brothers have been parting for more than a month, let's find a place to have a drink and talk. Alas, I actually saved up a stomach to complain and wanted to complain to the master, but he can only find you when he is gone. ”

Yue Qianqiu, who was facing away from the room, deliberately raised his voice a little, and then lowered his voice and said, "Speaking of which, the most bitter thing recently is Ying Xiaopang, and how many things are pressed on his shoulders, alas, this is the price of being a prince." There are some things that no one can make decisions for him, and there may not even be anyone who can listen to his grievances in the future. ”

"Isn't there you, senior brother, why can't you ......" Dai Zhanning said and stopped abruptly, not only because he heard that there was someone behind the door curtain, but also because he realized Yue Qianqiu's good intentions.

"It's impossible for my concubine to be in Jinling all the time, right? When the world is peaceful when I turn back, I will sail out to sea to find a new continent! Ying Xiaopang always has to be independent, anyway, there will be so many people in Wuying Hall in the future, and some of him will be used by people. ”

The little fat man behind the curtain clearly heard every word of Yue Qianqiu, and the whole person was stunned for a while. He almost subconsciously wanted to lift the curtain and rush out, but the hand trembled and grabbed the curtain and didn't move.
