Today's north is chaotic, and it is not chaotic. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Chaos is due to the armed conquest between large and small separatist forces, and not chaos is because small forces are almost negligible, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty is small. Toward. Court. Now there are only two large forces facing it: Qin and Yan.

This year is the year of Jiazi, the eighth year of Liang (Qianliang) Shengping, the twenty-seventh year of the founding of the country, the sixth year of Qin (former Qin) manna, the fifth year of Yan (former Yan) Jianxi, and the second year of Xingning in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. In August, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival of the year, and it was also the time when Huan Wen was full of ambition to plan the third Northern Expedition.

The Qin and Yan people compare Huan Wen to a goshawk, flying high in the air, except for hunting and food on weekdays, there are few times to dive, and each dive is a full load...... He may not be the strongest in force or the highest in intelligence, but he is the best at stealing food. Because of this, large-scale expeditions between Qin and Yan have rarely broken out, so as not to let the Jin state reap the benefits of the fishermen.

Huan Wen's actions can't hide the group of barbarians in the north, although they are barbarians, but their acceptance of the Central Plains culture is often deeper, obviously he has gathered troops on a large scale, no matter how he looks at it, how can he make Qin and Yan frightened, but he can't hold it back.

At the same time, the Duke of Runan within Qin, that is, the brother of the late Qin lord Fu Sheng, rebelled, and all kinds of signs said that now is the most suitable time for the Northern Expedition, not to seek a big victory, but to take a lot of land from these two strong enemies, it can already be comforted.

How......

With a crisp snap, the exquisite wine vessel shattered in an instant, and a large expanse of wine splattered, outlining a map on the ground.

A middle-aged man with anger on his face stared viciously at the paperwork on the desk, his palm grabbed the corner of the table, showing the excitement and anger in his heart, but in the end he resisted the urge to tear the paperwork apart, breathed heavily, and sat weakly on the soft collapse.

In addition to him in the room, Xi Chao was also there, and seeing that the middle-aged man's anger gradually subsided, Xi Chao opened his mouth and asked, "Duke Huan, but the imperial court rejected the request of the Northern Expedition?" ”

"That's true." The middle-aged man was Huan Wen, and when he heard this, he said, "This document was written by Sima Yu, approved by the Queen Mother, Xie Anshi, and others, and was urgently issued to stop the Northern Expedition...... Now it seems that even if he shirks the position of Yangzhou pastor, he will not be supported! ”

"Could it be that all the things that Duke Huan did in Jiankang a few days ago have been stopped? Should the court still want to force us, or even the king, the two families are about to marry, and they will even ignore the affection of their relatives and even write it by hand? Xi Chao heard what Huan Wen wanted to express, obviously, they had worked hard for so long, but they still couldn't get concessions from the imperial court, or rather, the concessions of some people who were reluctant to steal peace.

How can you not be angry?

"Sima Yu, I originally thought that there might be a relaxation in the marriage between the two families, at least to win his support, but the Sima clan is the Sima clan after all, pretending to release people, I really think that I won't blame me for using the marriage as a guise to ease the Northern Expedition?" Huan Wen said lightly, but he didn't wait for Xi Chao to echo again, so he continued, "Forget it, no matter over there, the imperial court does not allow the Northern Expedition, we can't act rashly, but the vigilance that should still be there must be, now, we can only hope that the Luoyang dispute between Qin and Yan will continue, and it will be the most beneficial thing for us to consume its national strength, but ......"

"But what?"

"Whether it is Wang Meng, or Murong Ke, or Murong Chui who was expelled by Murong Ke, they are all talented generals, what we can think of, they can also think of." When he said this, Huan Wen's voice was weak, and the sound of walking came from outside the room, which made him frown, and hurriedly said a conclusion, "Hope is hope, but it can't be beaten." ”

After saying that, Xi Chao also showed a trace of helplessness.

At this moment, a soldier invited in, and after receiving the answer, he quickly walked in, handed a letter to Huan Wen, and said, "Wang Shuping's letter from the king." ”

Huan Wen took it, waved his hand for the soldier to push it down, took out the letter, and looked at it carefully.

It was a letter he expected, but it had content that he didn't expect.

So much so that as he read on, his brows furrowed for a while, and stretched for a while, even Xi Chao, who was known as his confidant, was a little confused, just looking at him suspiciously from the side.

After a while, when he had finished reading it, he naturally lit the letter in the incense burner next to him and burned it.

Huan Wen didn't speak, Xi Chao naturally didn't ask too much, but seeing that Huan Wen had been pondering, Xi Chao couldn't guess a little, so he could only get up helplessly, as if he wanted to leave, so as not to disturb Huan Wen's thinking.

However, at the moment when Xi Chao got up, Huan Wen suddenly said: "Jingxing, don't go, let me ask you something, tell me what you think of Zhongdao marrying Princess Yuyao, the daughter of Sima Yu." ”

"Zhongdao married Princess Yuyao?" Xi Chao hesitated for a moment and said, "For the time being, Duke Huan is becoming more and more powerful, and the imperial court should be more prepared, so that Duke Huan must be hindered in everything, for example, this Northern Expedition, it should be that the imperial court has two worries, one is worried that the Northern Expedition will fail, and the people will lose money; Second, he was worried about the success of the Northern Expedition, and Duke Huan was extremely powerful and became the second Wang Dun. And once the marriage is made, there is a couple of newcomers between Duke Huan and the imperial court, and there should be much less obstruction to some things...... However, I really didn't expect that King Huiji would marry Duke Huan and stop the Northern Expedition at the same time—"

"Therefore, the marriage of the two families must have benefits, but for now, the benefits are not obvious, but the court feels that Zhongdao and the Sima clan are tied together, even if I lose face, I will not be blamed too much...... It's really a good idea, Xie Anshi and Sima Yu are in the middle of the court, and the Northern Expedition is afraid that it will be put on hold for a long time. Huan Wen shook his head, saying resentful words, but his expression did not change much, but was more relaxed than Fang Cai, "Then Jingxing will analyze and analyze with me, if you don't marry Sima Yu and seek the support of the Langya Wang clan instead, you say, this Northern Expedition can be carried out?" ”

Xi Chao should have already had this guess, and said at the moment: "It is very likely, even if the Langya Wang clan is weakened after the Shixing County Duke (Wang Dao), but it is still one of the great families, if it can get the support of the Langya Wang clan, An Shigong's side, there should be some easing, and the King of Huiji and the Queen Mother will also be jealous, but in this way, the Duke of Huan will be more suspicious." ”

"What if you are suspicious, born in this world, the husband will definitely be on the Northern Expedition." Replied lightly, Huan Wen suddenly hooked a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his fingers tapped on the tabletop, making a click (to be continued. )
