Chapter 65: Plan Ahead
No wonder the emperor was so anxious, it turned out that he had made a plan to abandon Jincheng early in the morning, looking at the current Kyushu continent, divided into two, the north is the big country Wei, and the south is the Southern Song Dynasty with sufficient troops, but there are many small countries around the Southern Song Dynasty, these years, a lot of destruction has also been destroyed, and only the head of the stubborn small country is left, the Lu country.

As long as the state of Lu is annexed, the southward movement will be completely controlled by the Southern Song Dynasty, and the emperor will no longer have any worries.
Although he knew from the beginning that he had the intention of annexing the Lu Kingdom, he never imagined that he would destroy the Lu Kingdom in the name of harmony, what would this be like for Princess Yongming?
Chu Shenxia suddenly understood why when he entered the palace, everyone was in a hurry, and they were all busy preparing for the prince and his relatives.
Liu Yan's gaze suddenly paused behind him, Chu Shenxia only felt a chill crawling up his back, and before he could turn back, Ruoyu's voice had already come, "Your Highness, everything is ready." ”
Looking back at her, I saw that she was no longer wearing a black robe, but had changed into women's clothes, and the plain long skirt made her appearance more brilliant, but the coldness of this face never faded.
Chu Shenxia saw that the chill between her eyebrows was not as good as before, but mixed with a little anger, and then looked at Liu Yan, he had quietly avoided Ruoyu's gaze, and replied lightly, "Got it, go down." ”
Liu Yan saw that he was surprised, so he made a look, motioned him to enter the house, and when he entered the house, Chu Shenxia remembered the food box in his hand, and gently put it down and said: "On the way just now, I met Concubine Xian Niangniang, and she asked me to send this to you." ”
"Hmm." Liu Yan responded casually and poured himself a cup of tea.
Chu Shenxia reminded: "Won't Your Highness open it and take a look?" Concubine Xian Niangniang is full of hard work..."
While speaking, Liu Yan really opened the food box, and the pungent aroma of medicine hit his face, and when he smelled it, he knew that he had been boiling for a long time, but Liu Yan frowned, closed the food box, and muttered: "The mother concubine is really, knowing that I am not injured, why do I have to do it myself, such a good medicine has not been poured out in the end?" ”
Chu Shenxia's heart trembled, hiding the surprise that flashed in his eyes, and pretending to regret: "It's a pity that this medicine is poured, it's a pity." ”
This time, it was Liu Yan's turn to be surprised, and a pair of eyes looked at Chu Shenxia's face a few times, and finally, he laughed out loud, and said while laughing: "You have already guessed, it is the intention of my father to be stabbed and pretended to be injured in bed." ”
As soon as the smile on his face was closed, Liu Yan said with a straight face: "Wei State has annexed Northern Yan, his power has undoubtedly taken another step, the survival of my Southern Song Dynasty is imminent, my father means that there is just a golden city, Beiyan will take it if he wants to, and Wei will take it if he is willing to take it." What we have to do now is to swallow the Lu State, only by swallowing the Lu State, the whole situation will be controlled by our Southern Song Dynasty again, taking advantage of the fact that the Wei State has experienced a vicious battle at this moment, it is the time of the war, we will capture the Lu State in one fell swoop, so that he will not take advantage of it. ”
Chu Shenxia nodded, he understood what he said, this is indeed a good time, if the Wei State adjusts and has sufficient troops, then it is extremely dangerous for the Southern Song Dynasty to raise troops to attack Lu. Surely, before the Lu State was captured, he Wei State was killed, and other small countries must follow, raising troops to crusade, in a vain attempt to take advantage of the chaos to recover some lost territory, and the Southern Song Dynasty will definitely become a fish on the board at that time, and let all countries slaughter it.
Chu Shenxia's fingers tapped on the table for a while, and Liu Yan knew that he was pondering, so he didn't bother him, but picked up the teacup and drank it slowly.
After a while, Chu Shenxia said a word, "I'm afraid that the Lu State may not be slaughtered by His Highness." ”
"How?" Liu Yan put down the teacup and turned slightly to face him.
Chu Shenxia also turned around slightly, and told him what he thought in his heart little by little, "Princess Yongming was imprisoned by the thirteen princes of Qi State before, although Her Royal Highness had to intercede, and the emperor released her, but as we all know, the monarch of Lu cut ten cities and sent them to my Southern Song Dynasty to apologize. ”
Liu Yan nodded, motioning for him to continue, Chu Shenxia's eyes flashed, and his tone became a little heavier, "As far as I know, since those ten cities were subsumed into my Southern Song Dynasty, there has not been a trace of riots, and the people of those Lu countries are still living as before, isn't this surprising enough?" What I can think of is that the state of Lu may also try to annex my Southern Song Dynasty through harmony, and those ten cities must be his strong arms. ”
Liu Yan's two eyebrows were furrowed, he didn't think of this, he thought about it slightly, his chest had churned countless times, if it was really as Chu Shenxia said, then wouldn't this time be extremely dangerous.
After his chest calmed down, he asked with a fluke mentality: "Although the ten cities were ceded by the Lu State to my Southern Song Dynasty, our people have already occupied them, and it is not that the Lu State can take it back if it wants to, and use it if it wants, so it may not be too underestimating us." ”
Chu Shenxia shook his head, his tone was as flat as tea, "Does Your Highness really think that we have already occupied the ten cities of the Lu Kingdom?" It is better to say that the monarch of Lu State successfully stationed in my Southern Song Dynasty through these ten cities, my Southern Song Dynasty is solid, and it is difficult for him to send a few spies to Lu State, and now only ten cities have been divided, and I have broken the gap in the Southern Song Dynasty, why not do it? ”
Liu Yan slowly clenched his fists, his face was covered with dark clouds, and he took a deep look at Chu Shenxia, Chu Shenxia caught this glance and asked, "I guess, His Highness's soldiers are already on the way there, right?" Trying to hide your forces in those ten cities, right? ”
Liu Yan's clenched fist shook suddenly, slowly released it and put it under the table, and said with a deep breath: "Now that I think about it, there is indeed something wrong, Lu Guo must be aware of it, but can he even skip the step of making peace with him, and directly tear his face with Lu Guo and fight with his sword?" ”
"Of course not, it is necessary to be close to each other, if you tear your face directly, then when will this battle be fought? When Wei recovers, he will definitely swing his sword and go south. Chu Shenxia said decisively.
The original plans were all overturned by Chu Shenxia, and Liu Yan was also confused at this time, neither moving, nor moving, frowning: "Then what do you say?" ”
"Seal the city, Dongxiang is the location of the largest field in the transaction between the Southern Song Dynasty and the Lu State, and it is also the junction of the Southern Song Dynasty and the Lu State, find an excuse, the prince is married, and gangsters mix into the city to destroy it, or where there are dead people, it is okay, as long as you make sure that the big thing can close the city."
"Is it sealed? There are always a few spies who can sneak out or use flying pigeons to secretly report the news. "Liu Yan is a little unsure, if the news of the closure of the city for no reason is leaked, it does not mean that he directly tells Lu Guo that I am preparing in the Southern Song Dynasty and preparing to attack your Lu State.
The corners of Chu Shenxia's mouth slightly hooked up a sneer, and he looked straight at Liu Yan and said, "Your Highness doesn't have to worry, because I decided to go to Dongxiang in person to defend Dongxiang City for His Highness, and never release a trace of news." ”
Liu Yan was stunned, he couldn't believe that after such a turnaround, it was much worse than the original plan, and he was naturally uneasy in his heart, but the person in front of him, he believed it, and nodded immediately.
Chu Shenxia was about to take a step back after saluting, and everyone retreated to the door, when he suddenly paused again, and a question came out of his throat, "Your Highness, does Miss Ruoyu know these things?" ”
Liu Yan slowly raised his head, puzzled why he asked this, groaned for a while, and asked, "I don't know, what's wrong?" ”
"It's nothing, I just think that His Highness shouldn't show his heart to everyone, and he must be wary of others, even if he is to me." After Chu Shenxia finished speaking, he bowed and stepped out of the door.
Ruoyu didn't know, but Chu Shenxia always felt that she knew something, that kind of look was really weird.
Chu Shenxia thought as he walked, so he didn't pay attention to the road, and almost fell into the pool, his heart trembled violently twice before he stabilized his body, and the corner of his eye noticed a plain color not far away, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look.
Ruoyu saw him cast his gaze and said coldly: "Why did Gongzi Chu think so distractedly? I don't even remember to see the road. ”
Chu Shenxia's eyes tightened slightly, taking in her expression, but he only caught contempt and vigilance, staring at her with some disbelief, but after looking at it for a long time, there was really no other look.
"Have you seen enough?"
The cold tone was mixed with a hint of anger and rushed towards Chu Shenxia, Chu Shenxia came back to his senses, smiled apologetically, arched his hand and prepared to leave.
"Stop."
Chu Shenxia stood up in response, turned around to look at her, she had already walked in front of her, and couldn't help but secretly admire in her heart, she was so badly injured before, and the ghost door was closed for a while, and her martial arts cultivation was actually not worse than before.
Her martial arts are above herself, what about Jing Yan? Isn't it beyond his reach, because he was so good at covering up before, and only five points of strength were used to fight back.
"Does Jing Min's matter have anything to do with you?" Ruoyu's questioning slammed down in front of him.
Chu Shenxia stared at her serious and serious face, the corners of his mouth suddenly hooked, and when the person in front of him saw his reaction, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, Chu Shenxia smiled and slowly spit out two words, "Relevant." ”
Ruoyu was stunned at first, a pair of eyes flashed, as if he was shocked by his straightforward admission, but within a moment, those eyes were slowly replaced by yin, and there was a bit of anger on his face.
Chu Shenxia saw that she realized that she was joking, so she withdrew her smile and said lightly: "Look, I said that you don't believe it, but I said it has nothing to do, do you believe it?" What do you want? Actually, you already have the answer in your heart, and if I don't answer the answer, what's the matter, can you change your mind about me? You are the smartest woman I have ever seen, and the least like a woman, you and I are both doing things for His Highness, so why bother holding each other, find the right point, and don't go the wrong way. ”
The last sentence seemed to have ulterior motives, the contempt on Ruoyu's face suddenly flashed, and his eyes looked deeply at Chu Shenxia, but Chu Shenxia arched his hand, and Shi Shiran walked away.
