Chapter 220: Internal and External Troubles

Regarding the "neutrality" of the Marquis of Jin, Zhao Ying and Zhao Wuxian had already expected it in advance.

In fact, Liuqing's handling of Zhao Ying's coma this time was a little hasty and improper. They are still not ready for a full-scale war, like six opponents playing chess, only weakening the enemy with partial divisions on the periphery, but without the courage to directly generalize.

The situation is complicated, and if you are not careful, you will lose everything.

The difficulty, the hatred of dozens of Yu soldiers, of course Zhao Wuxian will not forget, he can't wait to make the murderer pay the price immediately. But at the moment, if his mind is hot and he hastily declares war on Fan Zhongxing, it will not be of the slightest benefit to the Zhao family and his future plans.

Because of Zhao's strength, he is at a disadvantage around Xinjiang; What's more, Zhao Ying pretended to inspect the lower palace in a healthy way before, but in fact, it was just a strong support.

His body still needs to recuperate under his care for several months before he can fully recover. This tiger-like secretary miraculously woke up after a rare seven-and-a-half-day fainting, and his personality seemed to have converged, and he was more mature and stable than before, which was a great thing for the Zhao family.

So some of Zhao's methods are actually just bluffs. This time when he entered the palace, he preemptively denounced Fan Zhongxing's misdeeds, put himself in the role of a loyal monarch and a victim, and won the support of the monarch and the public opinion of the people.

In this way, the situation suddenly changed hands.

Zhong Xingyin, who originally had an advantage in strength, did not dare to risk attacking the Zhao family again because of hesitation, so he fell passive: Fan Ying had not yet returned, and Zhong Xingyin was very concerned about the mysterious loud noise that turned the tide of the battle that night, and he did not dare to act recklessly.

A few days ago, those who had received Dong Anyu and the unsympathetic tiger talisman, but the small sect chiefs who were ambiguous, after learning that Zhao Ying had recovered, sent people to express their loyalty, and they burst into tears one by one.

Zhao Ying and Wuxian looked at this coldly, and after this crisis, the father and the two felt. The most important thing to do is to remove these unstable factors within the Zhao clan one by one by using the method of dealing with the surrounding towns of the lower palace.

Let the Zhao family have only one clan name and one sect master. One voice! It is necessary to let the Zhao clan's territories in the north be connected, rather than being sandwiched in various mountain passes and small towns to fight separately, so that they can have a chance to win in the war.

At this moment, Fan Ying, who was far away in Chaoge, also sent back a letter, but it was not for Fan Jia, the Yin of the Bank of China. Instead, it was personally held by the Fan envoy and delivered to the lower palace, and Zhao Ying was named to see it personally.

After Zhao Yan opened the letter and read it, he looked up to the sky and laughed, and then handed it over to Zhao Wuxian and the doctors who had gathered for public discussion.

"What, Famber, want to reconcile!?"

……

At this point, Fan Ying's purpose of staying in the song gradually surfaced, after the news of "Zhao Ying's death" came. The scheming jackal reacted immediately.

In the vicinity of Xinjiang, where the relationship is complicated, he asked Zhong Xingyin and Sun Fanjia to test the Zhao family, like throwing a stone into the water to observe its ripples. On the one hand, it is best to confirm whether the news is true, and if it can make the Zhao family mess up in one fell swoop, it is the best.

But unlike Zhong Xingyin, Fan Ying's purpose is not to destroy the Zhao family at one time, after all, in that case, it will cause a large continuous reaction at home and abroad. It's hard to predict the consequences. His real idea was to take this opportunity to dismember the Zhao family.

"There are many small sects in the Zhao family, among which the Handan family is the largest. The bloodline with the Zhao family is also the most estranged! We can divide them. ”

So, he sent Fan Jishu to Handan, not far from Chaoge, to lobby the Handan clan.

To the Guizhi handed over by Fan Ying, the head of the Handan clan, Handan Wu was also tempted.

Since the last time, his eldest handan Ji has been in the Pan Palace. After the conflict with the great Zongshu Wuxian, Handan Wu was summoned to Wendi by Zhao Ying, severely reprimanded, and forced him to change his heir.

At that time, although Handan Wu swallowed his anger on the face and did as he was told, he was actually dissatisfied in his heart and had a lot of resentment.

Jun Zhize, the fifth and beheaded! He was in Handan and other cities, and he also ruled over tens of thousands of people, the supreme lord. This kind of small sect is ridden on the head by the big sect, and he is called to come, and he has had enough of it!

Therefore, when Zhao Ying was dead and the news of the Zhao clan's contention came, he was also ready to move.

And Fan Ying's suggestion made Handan Wu even more ecstatic.

Fan Ying said that if Handan openly declared his independence from the Zhao family, he could help Handan Wu to speak for the monarch and let him enter Xinjiang, replacing the unsuccessful Zhu of the Zhao family and becoming the new secretary...... Even, it is possible to reverse the relationship with the Zhao family's large and small sects!

"Handan must not forget the actions of Quwo Daijin, just like the poem. At the turn of October, it was said: The high bank is the valley, and the deep valley is the mausoleum. Since ancient times, it has been common for people to be high and low, and to change their status. In the past, the Shi clan was a large sect for the Fan clan, but now it is a small sect; In the past, the Bank of China was a small sect for the Xun family, but now it is a large sect. ”

However, within a few days, Zhao Ying recovered, and the news of his blatant inspection in the lower palace was learned by the Handan clan. Handan Wu, who was originally ambitious, immediately coaxed, and lost his mind of "rebellion".

He was afraid of Zhao Ying, from the bottom of his heart he was afraid of that "", from becoming the head of the Handan clan to now, for more than ten years, he has been shrouded in the scorching light of Zhao Ying, and he does not dare to have the slightest disobedience.

Even if the Kun father brothers in Handan City repeatedly persuaded him not to do anything, he sexually took refuge in his in-laws, Zhongxing, who had a closer relationship; Even if Fan Ying made such an enticing promise, Handan Wu resolutely didn't dare to think anything about Zhao Ying while he was still there.

"As long as the lord is alive for one day, I can't betray the Zhao clan."

He sent someone to politely send Fan Jishu away, and closed the door to himself. And this defeat made Fan Ying, who was in Chaoge, sigh.

"Zhao Mengzhilie, as far as Si?"

Fan Ying is already an eighty-year-old dying old man, and he feels that his time is running out.

His life can be described as bumpy: first, because he indirectly caused Luan Needle's death, he was denounced by the Luan clan in front of the monarch and expelled him to Qin; After he returned to China, he wantonly took revenge on his nephew Luan Ying, and the confrontation between the two families can be said to be the highest peak of Jin Qing's internal fighting.

During this period, Luan Ying went into exile in Chuqi, went and returned, and the battle spread in full swing around Xinjiang, and the Wei family changed the court between the two families, and the Duke of Qi Zhuang even sent troops to intervene, and the battle reached the pass of the line. The Fan family was in danger several times, thanks to their father's best efforts, and held the monarch Jin Pinggong hostage, with the help of the countrymen. to stabilize the situation.

In the following ten years, Fan Ying matured and low-keyed a lot, he silently survived his ancestors Zhao Wu, Han Qi's peers, Zhongxing Wu, and his political opponent Wei Shu, and finally ushered in his own ruling era.

Now. In the Jin Kingdom, he was only afraid of two people, one was the forbearant Zhibo, and the other was the increasingly powerful Zhao Meng.

For the former, which is as smooth as water, Fan Ying has nothing to do. But to Zhao Marting. Although this somewhat reckless young gentleman was defeated by Fan Ying's repeated tricks in the court, he never admitted defeat and stood up again and again, so that Fan Ying had to start paying attention.

If he dies, Er Fan Ji shoots, and his ally Zhong Xingyin is probably not his opponent.

The plan to dismember the Zhao family this time was originally going very smoothly, but once Zhao Ying recovered, he didn't even need to do anything. It's just that he went around the lower palace in a dignified manner, and his Fan Marting's conspiracy became weak.

This person is getting more and more difficult to deal with, not to mention, he has a good son to help.

However, for those fearful rumors, Fan Ying scoffed.

"The Zhao family has the help of ghosts and gods, leading the heavenly thunder to retreat from the enemy? It's ridiculous, Uncle Zhongxing actually believes it, it's not as good as his father Bank of China! ”

Fan Jiji also said regretfully: "Judging from the letter." Even if it is a thunderstorm, if you think about it carefully, in fact, more than ten people have been killed and injured, so there is nothing to be afraid of. ”

Fan Ying stroked his white beard. Said contemptuously: "According to Ajia, Zhao Shishu has always liked to fiddle with some clever and strange things, waterwheel mill porcelain. That thunder was probably a trap he had set up by the craftsman to scare people. ”

Although, if the Zhao clan has the means to make a loud explosion with manpower. It was enough to make them vigilant, but after getting rid of the irresistible ghost and god level of manpower, they wouldn't feel particularly terrifying.

Perhaps, is this providence?

"Okay, let's end this matter, the old man has already sent a message to Zhao Meng to reconcile with him."

Fan Jichu was a little unwilling: "Although Handan rejected my father's kindness, if there is a war, I am afraid he will not listen to Zhao Ying's dispatch." It is not difficult for us to raise troops from Chaoge and sweep the territory of the Zhao clan outside the line with half an army. And on the side of Zhongxingbo, he can also defeat Zhao Han's pawn with five strong formations, and the big thing can be decided. It's just that the state of the monarch and the second secretary of the state is unpredictable......"

Fan Ying vetoed this military adventure: "In that case, the charges of our leaders will be confirmed, and we must not do it." Now the Fan clan is also unstable, the Yin Dafu Shi in the south is the party of Zhao Ying, and your cousin Shi Gaoyi is the party of the Zhi clan, and they are all separated from the great sect. ”

"But this time Ah Jia and the Zhao clan moved into a fight, killing and wounding several people, although it was done in the name of the robbers, but the grudge has been settled, how can the Zhao family give up?"

Fan Ying was confident: "We are fighting with the Zhao family? Don't want to talk nonsense, it's obviously just a thief pretending to be a soldier of the Fan clan, as long as he is exterminated, what else does the Zhao clan have to say? In the old man's hand, he also has Zhao Meng's ally Le Qi, which can be used as compensation and exchange......"

After that, the body of the secretary of the Jin State turned to the east corner of the Pingchuan River, and not far to the east, it was the border between the Jin State and the Wei State: "What's more, the neighbors to the east and south have become more and more restless......"

After he got off the city wall, he asked people to prepare the carriage and horses to return to Xinjiang, and continued to teach his son: "The situation in the world is changing rapidly, and we must adapt flexibly in order to make the clan profitable. Within a few days of receiving the news, the situation was not quite different, Zhao Meng and I have been fighting for ten years, and his temperament is naturally known to the old man, and he will definitely agree to reconcile! ”

The reason why Fan Ying thinks so is because a few days ago, a news came from the south: Qi Hou and Zheng Bo formally met in Xiandi, formed an alliance, and jointly sent tens of thousands of troops to defend the country.

They also sent letters to Song, Lu, Beiyan, Cao, Xiaoyi, Ju Xianyu and other princes who were originally subordinate to the Jin, summoning them to meet in Weiguo. Its purpose is obvious, Qi Hou is not willing to be lonely, he wants to compete with the Jin State for the position of overlord!

"Brothers are against the wall, and the outside is humiliated. Now that the external troubles of Jinbang are coming, can the internal worries rest for a while? ”

This is what Fan Ying said to Zhao Ying on the slip. (To be continued.) )
