Compared with the Southern Liang Imperial Court, Yuwentai's Western Wei Dynasty shows more of a profound government's self-confidence and domineering, without a trace of exaggeration and publicity, but it is impressive, although the Southern Liang Imperial Court is known as extravagant, at most it is a group of officials and gentlemen in Jiankang City who entertain themselves behind closed doors, and it seems so petty, so powerless and pale, without any connotation.

Xiao Yu didn't know if he was admiring the West and flattering like this, but at the moment he admired Western Wei very much, at least he thought so in his heart. Su Sui saw that he was very satisfied with the gift, so he continued to trick him into sighing deliberately: "Alas, it's a pity. Xiao Yu asked a little puzzled, "Why do you sigh?" Su Sui waved to the two dancers who accompanied the wine, and the two beauties got up and withdrew.

This is Su Xuancai said: "Lord Xiao, you and I have been familiar at first sight since we first met, and we don't hide it, our Prime Minister wants to form an alliance with your king, but Gao Huan has repeatedly sabotaged it, and now he has sent troops to Jiangnan to capture Jiankang, and he also supports a puppet to be your emperor, although our Prime Minister is distressed, he can't help you because he has no reason or excuse." ”

Xiao Yu is no longer anxious about the alliance because Xiao Duo later switched to Gao Huan, but what Su Sui said about the new emperor is a puppet, he doesn't know, but it shouldn't be wrong to find Su Sui to say this, Gao Huan is also a contemporary hero, and he will definitely not do charity to help people fight for free, so entering Jiangnan definitely needs an excuse to be affirmed, and supporting a puppet is the cheapest and most cost-effective means.

"I also know a little about Gao Huan, this person is insatiable and has to look forward to Shu. It's not good to run in his territory and take care of other people's affairs, and his wolf ambition has long been known to passers-by. Xiao Yu also pointed fingers at Gao Huan indignantly, as if he had killed his grandfather. Su Sui took the opportunity to say: "That's right, when he arrived in Jiankang to support the puppet emperor to ascend the throne, it was nothing more than coveting the land and wealth of Nanliang, but it's a pity that your king's strength is limited, and it is estimated that he can only tie his hands to Gao Huan and return to the wind." ”

"Hmph, even Hou Jing was repelled by my uncle, why should a Gao Huan be worried? What kind of thing is he, who ran to the land of my Nanliang to be a prestige? Xiao Yu didn't know if it was because of the effect of alcohol or because he was suspicious of Gao Huan, his face was red and his eyes were shining at the moment, and he looked very excited, Su Yu continued to fan the flames and said: "Our king has always attached great importance to the interaction with the king of Xiangdong, as long as the king of Xiangdong says a word, our Western Wei must be a great help!" ”

Xiao Yu looked at Su Yu sincerely and said, "Master Su, with your words, I will tell my uncle when I go back and cut off contact with Gao Huan." Su Sui was waiting for his words, and immediately took his hand and asked excitedly, "Is this true?" Xiao Yu said proudly: "The gentleman is quick to speak, and I, Xiao Yu, am also a royal family, so I naturally will not break my word." ”

Su Sui then took out a secret letter with a seal seal from his sleeve, and said mysteriously: "This secret letter was written by our prime minister to the king of Xiangdong, please be sure to give it to him privately when you go back, thank you." Xiao Yu took the letter and put it in his arms, and said with a solemn oath: "Master Su, don't worry, I will live up to my mission." After that, he picked up the wine glass on the table and said to Su Sui: "Come, let's have another drink!" "Cheers!" Su Sui's eyes lit up, and he looked very happy.

Yuwentai let Xiao Yu go away to let him go back to be his eyeliner, because he and Su Yu only agreed to communicate with each other on a regular basis, Xiao Yu can finally leave for China, and this trip has been out for more than a month, although he has heard a little about the war report, but he still hurried to Xiangyang, because Xiao Duo has moved the base camp from Jiangling to a safer Xiangyang.

The 20,000 garrisons in Jiangling were commanded by Wang Seng Bian, and Xiao Duo left him behind to resist Hou Jing's counterattack, and also to resist Gao Huan's aggressive aggression. Xiao Fangzhi wrote many times to ask him to go to Jiankang to meet Xinjun in person, but Xiao Duo hesitated and could not make up his mind. Xiao Yu's return did not bring any good news, and Western Wei was determined not to send troops to help him at this moment.

But when Xiao Yu privately handed over Yuwentai's secret letter to him, he smiled, the content of the secret letter is really interesting, Yuwentai's secret letter is to the effect of the following: In view of the rivalry between Hou Jing and Gao Huan, then you have naturally become a decisive force, if you think of the old relationship, you should help the master Gao Huan to destroy Hou Jing, but if Hou Jing perishes too quickly, then Gao Huan's next target must be you, in view of this situation, Lone suggests that you do not rush to cooperate with Gao Huan, he has Hou Jing's elbow, and he does not dare to move you for the time being, Therefore, during this time, you should devote yourself to expanding your power and grabbing territory, and after Hou Jing's demise, you will have enough capital to compete with Gao Huan, and then Lone will go south to help you, and the restoration of Nanliang and the expulsion of Gao Huan are just around the corner.

After reading this letter, Xiao Duo just smiled, he felt that Yuwentai's level of abduction was average, and these reasons and excuses could not really move him. So he asked Xiao Yu about the internal situation of the Western Wei Dynasty, and the two were chatting in the pavilion, when the little eunuch leaned forward with a letter and said: "Your Highness, the prince has a letter and a letter, please take a look." Xiao Duo took the letter casually and tore it open to read.

The more he looked at this letter, the more angry he became, Xiao Fangzhi urged him to go to Beijing to face the saint in the letter, and said that this was Gao Huan's own intention, if he couldn't enter Beijing in time after the deadline, Gao Huan might personally send troops to meet him. What does this Gao Huan mean? And personally sent troops to meet them? Threaten me? Xiao Duo snorted angrily and threw the letter to the ground, Xiao Yu quickly picked it up and read it, and he was also indignant after reading it: "King, this Gao Huan is also self-righteous, and he really regards himself as the master of our beam?" Drink to everyone! ”

This sentence was a tipping point, Xiao Duo was so angry that he slapped the table and said loudly: "Presumptuous, he is a Yidi from the north who dares to come to my territory and shout five or six, who to scare?" I respect him and respect him as a prime minister, if he really provokes the old man, even his pseudo-emperor Gu will also be destroyed for him, who is this! Xiao Yu took advantage of the opportunity and continued: "This Gao Huan has long coveted our Daliang, but he is only suffering from Yuwentai in Guanzhong to contain him, so he has no chance. This time, because of Hou Jing, he took advantage of the fire to rob not to mention that he actually supported a Xiao Daoquan as the emperor, this Xiao Daoquan is 108,000 miles behind you as the king, if you really want to say that you are the great treasure, it should be you......"

Xiao Duo didn't wait for Xiao Yu to finish speaking, and then categorically interrupted him: "Okay, this shouldn't be the emperor who doesn't care, but Gao Huan can't treat me like this, I'm not his subordinate, why does he have to run up and pay tribute as soon as he shouts at Lonely, what kind of thing is he Gao Huan?" Then he said to Xiao Yu: "You go and write to the prince, let him run back secretly quickly, and the lonely will immediately Xie Feng reply to Yuwentai, we can form an alliance with the Western Wei to fight against Gao Huan." Xiao Yu was happy when he heard this, and nodded frequently in agreement.

Xiao Duo actually wanted to be the emperor for a long time, but Xiao Gang would definitely not set him up in Xiao Yan, and finally waited for Xiao Yan to die, Xiao Gang took the throne, and now Xiao Gang announced his abdication, then the emperor must give priority to himself, Gao Huan actually supported Xiao Daoquan, what kind of identity is this person, but he is his cousin, or a distant relative, what qualifications does he have to ascend to the throne, it's a joke! So Xiao Duo is actually very resistant to Gao Huan in his heart, because of Hou Jing, he has always suppressed this emotion in his heart, and now Xiao Yu's fanning and Gao Huan's aggressiveness finally made him fall to Yuwentai's side, although he also looked down on Yuwentai very much.

The enemy of the enemy can sometimes be a friend, since Xiao Duo has decided to turn his face with Gao Huan now, then naturally he can no longer go to war with Hou Jing, so he took the initiative to send someone to Xiling to find Hou Jing to talk about peace, Hou Jingle is the most incompatible, what he is most desperate for at present is to recuperate, and when he recovers, all Gao Huan and Xiao Duo will be killed.

stabilized Hou Jing's power, he turned his eyes to Jiaozhou in the south, Qianzhong and Sichuan Shu in the west, although Jiaozhou Qianzhong is far away from the Tiangao Emperor, sparsely populated, but there is a way out in the future, as for Sichuan Shu, because it is the fief of his nephew Xiao Lun, he wants to trick his nephew out and kill him, or directly send troops into the land of fish and rice in the country of abundance, where the resources and wealth are enough for him to confront Gao Huan, and he can attack and retreat and defend, and he can learn from Liu Bei in the future, and he will be permanently called emperor in a corner of peace.

Although Jiaozhou Qianzhong is sparsely populated and lacks resources, it is also the land of the Southern Liang State, which is naturally under the jurisdiction of the government and the army is stationed. Because of Emperor Tiangao and the chaos and disorder of the central government at the moment, the county guards there have become a local emperor, holding financial and military power, and they didn't take Xiao Duo's orders seriously at all, so he could only transfer Wang Seng Bian back, intending to let him lead the army south to clean up the central area of Jiaozhou.

When Wang Seng Bian received the order, he thought that the secret of his rebellion had been leaked, and he was scared to death. (Such a monarch and minister in the same bed and dreamed of stirring a horse spoon in a pot, Xiao Duoyan can not be defeated), immediately single, even the family can't take care of it, escaped from Jiangling overnight and walked east to Jiankang to join Gao Huan. Xiao Duo was very surprised by his run, he didn't expect his first general to run away, although he was angry, but he didn't dare to take Wang Seng Bian's family out of anger, after all, they didn't take away a single soldier, nor did they do anything out of the ordinary, so he just sent troops to guard Wang Seng Bian's family and put him under house arrest.

Fortunately, his son Xiao Fangzhi had already left Jiankang City and rushed to Xiangyang the day before this incident. At least Gao Huan doesn't have his own hostages in his hands at the moment, so he doesn't have to worry about anything.

Gao Huan was feeding the old master medicine, and when he received Gao Longzhi's report, he was so angry that he scolded loudly: "No wonder this Xiao Duo is blind, he can't tell right from wrong and can't see his position, he actually negotiated peace with Hou Jing, and hooked up with Yuwentai in Guanzhong, does he think he is very smart and can hide everything from me?" Does he feel like he's running bare-chested on the street and thinking that everyone can't see him? Stinky and shameless! Yang Xiuzhi and Gao Longzhi were amused by his analogy and snickered.

Even the old master was amused by him, coughing vigorously, Gao Huan hurriedly turned around and said, "How is it?" How's it going, are you okay, old master? Don't laugh! Come and help! Yang Xiuzhi and Gao Longzhi carefully helped Murong Heng up to do a good job, this old man is really getting weaker and weaker now, since he hit Jiangnan, this cough has not stopped, and he has even coughed up blood recently, and he often sees Gao Huan secretly wiping his tears in front of the medicine stove.

Murong Heng is a very important person for Gao Huan, he not only assumed the role of a father, but also Gao Huan's brains, all the core decisions are implicated in him, Gao Huan can go from a small local warlord to today, and become a feared force in this world, Murong Heng is a great contribution, it can be said that without Murong Heng, Gao Huan would have been destroyed by Yuwentai or Xiao Yan a long time ago.

Gao Huan felt that Murong Heng was terminally ill at the moment, and he had entered the countdown to leave him, the discomfort in his heart and the unknowable fear of the future were something that no one could understand, and these things could not be told to others, at this time, he missed several intimate ladies in the family very much: Lou Mingchun, Erzhu Caihuang, Princess Graceful,, for a while he even thought of Qingluo, although Qingluo was still far away in Guanzhong to spy on Yuwentai's whereabouts at this moment, he was desperate to find someone to talk to at the moment.
