Chapter 020: Golden Partner

Xu Wenhan is sometimes as thoughtful as an old woman, and sometimes she is terrifyingly bold. It turns out that this guy is not only a knowledgeable talent, but also a conspirator with great advanced awareness and strategic vision, and soon found a common language with Yang Zhi.

Yang Zhi's words made Xu Wenhan think deeply: The combination of such two bold monsters who are more than three points better than ghosts is simply a pair of golden partners.

Xu Wenhan unconsciously changed his title: "Brother Yang, Gongzi Qin and I agreed to come to Xinyang to meet from Jinling, and the next step is naturally for me and the three of us to go to Chang'an together." Let Ling Zun stay alone in Xinyang, Brother Yang must not be at ease, it is better to move his family to Chang'an to live, and the Qin family will take care of everything. If Brother Yang thinks it is feasible, he can start preparing in these days. It's just that Miss Shen and Brother Yang are not married, and it seems inconvenient to go together. ”

"There was no problem with moving. As long as the old man can see me from time to time, he can rest assured and I can rest assured. But my aunt's mind is changing rapidly, and it's really a bit troublesome. ”

"Brother Yang might as well make it clear that he is about to relocate and persuade him to return to Luzhou temporarily. If she is willing, after the news spreads in a few days, she can send a powerful guard from the Qin clan to escort her back first. After King Ning was stabbed by us this time, he will definitely be much more honest than before. Coupled with the relationship between Ling Yue and his uncle who are both princes, I believe there is no need to worry too much. Hehe, it depends on Brother Yang's reluctance. ”

“…… Lao Xu, dare to ask you Lao Guigeng? Do you have a family? ”

"Five out of twenty, both parents are dead, and they are not married. There is no worry, but it is also quiet and comfortable. ”

Yang Zhi had no intention of pretending to be tender, but he couldn't say that he had been a human being in two lives, and he said cheekily: "That's it, I'm not eighteen years old, you're not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry for an eggplant?" Just think that the fruit is not ripe yet, hang it on the tree and raise it for a while. ”

Xu Wenhan said with a smile: "Brother Yang is only eighteen years old, but he is very resourceful, and he is more meticulous and spicy than the old man who is over eighty. ”

"Each other, our eldest brother doesn't talk about the second brother. I don't know much about the situation in Chang'an based on speculation, so I can't just go in a daze, you tell me in detail first. ”

Xu Wenhan said solemnly: "I have this intention. ”

Daxia was originally the town of Jincheng Domain of the former dynasty, 30 years ago to raise troops and stand on their own, six years later the founding emperor died of illness, and was succeeded to the throne by his eldest son, the year name Wucheng. Today, Emperor Xia attaches great importance to agriculture and encourages fertility at home, and actively expands externally for many years, laying down a large territory. In the twenty-four years since he ascended the throne, he has risen to become the most powerful power. In the north, only Dayan is entrenched in the northeast corner, relying on the support of the Turks to survive, and there are other small countries such as the Southern Tang Dynasty, Wuyue, and Xishu. Although Southern Chu has a vast territory and a large population, the current Chu Emperor has mediocre intelligence, and the two countries have been fighting for many years, basically only passively beaten, relying on the Yangtze River to confront Great Xia.

Today, Emperor Xia has four sons and one daughter. In the tenth year of Wucheng in the Xia calendar, Zhao Heng, the eldest son of the fifteen-year-old son, was appointed as the crown prince, and the rest of the princes were crowned kings. The second son Zhao was the king of Fengning, the third son Zhao Dang was the king of Kang, and his daughter Zhao Yan was the fourth, and she was the princess of Changxiu. In February of the fourteenth year of Wucheng in the summer calendar, he gave birth to the fourth prince, named Qi, and was crowned the king of Yue.

The crown prince Zhao Heng began to enter the government at the age of sixteen, and it is said that he is diligent and benevolent, cherishes the people's strength, and has outstanding political achievements and is quite popular among the people. Ning Wang Zhao Dang since childhood like martial arts practice battle array, since the army led the army after the great achievements, the elite soldiers under his command are known as 300,000 people, can be called the number one enemy of the Southern Chu army. King Kang Zhao Dare is also brave and good at fighting, commanding 100,000 troops to sit in Youzhou, and it is rumored that his name can stop the night cry of Beiyan children.

Yang Zhi sighed again and again: "No wonder, no wonder! There is a way that the tiger father has no dog son, and none of these three brothers is a fuel-efficient lamp. It is conceivable that the youngest Yue Wang will not be a weak horn when he grows up. There are several fathers and sons in Great Xia, and it is strange that they will not be strong! ”

Xu Wenhan nodded and said: "That's true, but all the sons have advantages and disadvantages. If Great Xia wants to dominate the world, there is still a long way to go. If he is the ruler of the world, the prince is very good. However, Emperor Xia has passed the year of knowing the destiny of heaven, and he must be worried that the crown prince will not be able to complete the great cause of unification. Even if the crown prince can succeed to the throne smoothly in the future, there are two brothers with heavy troops watching from the side, and whether he can sit on the throne is still between the two. As long as a civil war breaks out in the Xiao Wall, the mighty Great Xia will collapse in an instant. If Emperor Xia thinks about it in the long run, he is most worried about this. ”

Yang Zhi frowned and said, "I know that the tail will be big in the future, but it is not appropriate to move anyone." It's enough to embarrass the emperor! ”

Xu Wenhan sneered: "When Emperor Xia is wavering and embarrassed, his speech and demeanor are inevitably ambiguous, which makes the prince feel the crisis and makes the other two princes rise up hope that they shouldn't have!" This is the root of King Ning's plot to rob the gold! ”

But the crown prince could not be deposed for no reason, and Emperor Xia realized that the consequences were serious, so he had to start changing the image of the prince as weak. The battle to destroy the Tang Dynasty was related to the national fortunes of Great Xia, and it was naturally planned by Emperor Xia himself, but I dare to conclude that it must be the crown prince in charge. After this battle, the crown prince will definitely establish prestige in the army, and it will be easy to win the love of the soldiers with his means, and he will definitely take the opportunity to win over a group of generals. In this way, the three of them will still have their own forces in the army, and they will still contain each other. The crown prince has the innate advantage of an orthodox successor, has the support of loyal ministers such as Lingyue Shengong, and has the support of military forces, if he can't sit on the throne in the future, then he can only be blamed for being too incompetent. ”

Yang Zhi said suddenly: "King Ning's robbery of gold is a risky move to take only after seeing it!" If it succeeds, Emperor Xia will not be able to defeat the Tang Dynasty, and the crown prince will only fail if he takes command. If it doesn't work, Nan Chu will carry this black cauldron, and it is expected that Emperor Xia will not move him easily. ”

"Exactly." Xu Wenhan replied: "The Qin clan has long been miserable between Emperor Xia and the princes, and they have been walking on thin ice for a long time, and they dare not make the slightest mistake. Two years ago, he came to me and begged me many times to help him with his plan, but I was grateful for his sincerity and agreed. What I set for the Qin clan is only an expedient measure: as long as Emperor Xia reigns for one day, everything will be obeyed. Lightly intersected with the princes, neither approaching nor offending. ”

sighed: "I was touched a lot by the conversation when you and I first met!" I used to have a heart of seclusion, but in the past two years, I have understood. Whether it is a hero or a master, no matter whether it is success or failure, it is the people who will suffer in the end. ”

"It's not that I'm boasting, I've been studying for many years and have read thousands of volumes, three tombs, five classics, eight hills and nine ropes, and the Tianqiu River Diagram Golden People and Jade Buddhas are not studied in detail. It's a pity that he can't sell it to the emperor's family because he has an imperial technique to slay the dragon! To tell you the truth, the reason why I agreed to be a staff member of the Qin clan is that I want to one day work for the welfare of the people of the world, so that I have not lived in vain in this world! ”

Why didn't Yang Zhi choose the Qin family as a platform out of desperation? At this point, the distance between the two is one step closer.

Yang Zhi said in amazement: "I'd rather be a peaceful dog than a troubled world." I don't know if my original idea is ideal, and even if it is, it is not as great and noble as yours. You're right, people can't come to this world for nothing, they have to do something. When the world is peaceful in the future, I hope we can be peaceful too! ”
