Chapter 966: Xie An is very cautious
In the main hall, Hua'an and the envoys of the Yan State formally concluded a peace document, and thus took the Dai County and Fanyang County of Youzhou without blood, and pushed the border north for hundreds of miles.
After signing the agreement, the envoy of Yan Kingdom said goodbye with his fists in his fist, and left Luoyang City, rushing back to Jicheng as fast as possible.
After the envoy of the Yan Kingdom left the main hall, Hua An and all the henchmen under his command could not suppress the excitement in their hearts and congratulated each other.
"Your Majesty, as soon as you sign this in black and white, Daijun and Fanyang County are ours, so that the capital of Yan Kingdom will be exposed under our noses, and it will be easier to clean up Yan Kingdom in the future." Zhuge Xiong said excitedly.
"Yes! Wang, the loss of Dai County and Fan Yang County of Yan is equivalent to the loss of hundreds of thousands of hectares of fertile land, and the loss of strength is very large, and the exposure of Jicheng has put Yan Guo in an extremely disadvantageous situation. Wang San also said.
Obviously, Wang San and Zhuge Xiong are still very satisfied with the content of the agreement, and feel that as long as they can implement the agreement, they can be regarded as taking a big advantage.
Hua An nodded with a smile, and said: "What you said is very right, as long as Yan Guo honestly hands over Dai County and Fan Yang County, we can seize these two strategic places without blood, and form a two-sided encirclement of Jicheng, when the time comes, once Yan Guo is not honest, we can immediately teach it a lesson." After speaking, he looked at the generals under his command.
"King Shengming, in this way, step by step, we will definitely be able to recover all Youzhou and Pingzhou, and realize the dream of many years ago." Wang San Zhengse said.
"That's certain, this king not only wants to recover Youzhou and Pingzhou, but also expands his territory in the future. Open up more territory for the Great Jin. Hua An said excitedly.
Obviously, at this time, rumors about Hua'an have been ignited, and Hua'an feels that his plan will soon be realized, so he can tell his ambitions one step earlier, so that the subordinates under his command will have a better head. At the same time, I also want to test their hearts.
The generals were a little surprised to hear that Hua'an was not only going to recover Youzhou and Pingzhou, but also to expand the territory for the Great Jin Dynasty, but Hua'an's remarks had been said before, and they would not be too surprised for this.
"The king is wise, as long as the king needs me. We are willing to follow the king at any time and expand the territory for the Great Jin Dynasty. Zhuge Xiong loudly expressed his determination.
"Whoever we are willing to chase?" All the confidants said loudly together.
Seeing this, Hua An nodded with great satisfaction, looked at the generals under his command, and said, "Okay, very good, as long as there are generals who support this king." This king will definitely be able to realize his wish to expand his territory, and when the time comes. Wherever the sun and the moon shine and the rivers go, they are all the land of my Great Jin. After speaking, he looked very proudly at the outside of the main hall.
Subsequently, Hua'an officially issued an order for the main force of the Xie Ai Army in Hebei to march in the direction of Lukou City immediately after receiving the order. And stationed around Lukou City, only a small number of soldiers and horses need to be left on the south bank of Yishui, and these small numbers of soldiers and horses are also responsible for receiving Dai County and Fanyang County.
After giving the order. Hua An and his subordinates discussed the situation in the direction of Youzhou.
####
In the direction of Jiankang City, Xie An has been investigating various rumors in the capital, and with the help of the leader of Yan Guo, he has learned more about the situation, but the results he analyzed according to these situations are still ambiguous, these rumors, there are both places to believe, and at the same time, there are also places to make people doubtful, for Hua'an's origin, Xie An still can't judge, however, he still doesn't want to believe that this is true, after all, Xie An doesn't believe too much in these things that catch wind and shadows.
"Gong Xie, now that we have been investigating the rumors in the capital for a while, and the basic situation has been understood, should we report to the Queen Mother." A heart belly looked at Xie An, and said with a straight face.
"Yes! Gong Xie, the Queen Mother asked us to find out the results as much as possible, and now, many days have passed, and it is time for us to report to the Queen Mother. Another heart and abdomen opened his mouth to build yƬ road.
Obviously, the matter has been investigated for many days, and if it is not reported to the Queen Mother, it will be a little too much, after all, the Queen Mother's decree is a big matter, how can it be too delayed.
When Xie An heard this, he lowered his head and pondered for a moment, he naturally wanted to report to the Empress Dowager Chu Garlic, but he felt that the investigation was not comprehensive enough, so he decided to investigate for a while longer, so that after he had more evidence, he would report to the Empress Dowager Chu Garlic.
"Now that the investigation is still unclear, how can I report it to the Queen Mother? Let's wait! Xie An said softly.
"Gong Xie, these rumors are all spread by Yan Guo, and they are all chasing after the wind, which is enough to show that these things are all false, isn't this clear enough?" A confidant said loudly.
"Yes! Gong Xie and the leaders of Yan Guo have all been captured by us, and he has also admitted these things, why can't he report them to the Queen Mother! Another confidant hurriedly asked.
Obviously, the two henchmen under Xie An's command both believe that Hua An's background is a commoner, and all the rumors spread by Yan Guozuo are chasing after the wind and shadows, which is not credible.
When Xie An heard this, he paused for a moment, and said: "You think these things are fake, and the official also thinks so, but there are still some credible elements in this, and besides, the official is waiting for the news from the direction of Luoyang City, and after the news from the direction of Luoyang City is delivered, it is not too late to report to the Queen Mother!" After speaking, he looked at several of the heart.
Obviously, Xie An arranged eyeliner in the direction of Luoyang City, and the identity of this eyeliner is not low, enough to contact Hua'an, for this reason, you can get more information about Hua'an, and what Xie An is waiting for is the report of this eyeliner.
When the henchmen under his command heard this, they understood Xie An's thoughts, so they no longer objected, after all, it would be better to investigate the matter more clearly and report it to the Queen Mother.
"Gong Xie, news has come back from the direction of Luoyang City, and the rumors of Yu Pei have been confirmed." At this moment, a henchman rushed to Xie An's side and said loudly
Xie An and all the henchmen under his command were all shocked when they heard this, and looked at each other a few times, obviously, they didn't expect that the rumors were actually confirmed.
"Gong Xie, could the jade pendant on the North King be fake?" A confidant minister said softly.
Hearing this, Xie An shook his head slightly, and said softly: "Probably not!" This kind of thing should not be so easy to fake, besides, Yan Guo's meticulous efforts to spread such rumors are to provoke the relationship between the imperial court and the Northern King, how could the Northern King be so cooperative with the Yan people? After speaking, he frowned.
Obviously, Xie An felt that Hua An would not pander to Yan Guo's conspiracy, after all, it was very unreasonable.
"Gong Xie, Xia Guan heard that the Yan Kingdom and the Northern King have recently negotiated peace, is there any conspiracy between them? If the king of the north colludes with the Yan Kingdom, these things seem very reasonable. A heart man said.
"Yes! Duke Xie, the soldiers and horses under the command of the Northern King have already occupied an absolute advantage, why did he suddenly negotiate peace with the King of Yan? This is very doubtful! Another heart said suspiciously.
Obviously, the confidants under Xie An's command were very puzzled by the peace between Hua'an and Murong Jun, and felt that there might have been some kind of collusion between Hua'an and Murong Jun.
Hearing this, Xie An pondered for a moment, and said, "What is the specific situation, it still needs to be investigated, you don't want to jump to conclusions too early." ā
Xie An is still cautious about the truth or falsity of the rumors, after all, this is not a trivial matter, but a major matter related to the fortunes of the country.
"Gong Xie, the Queen Mother is urgently summoned." It didn't take long for the Empress Dowager Chu Lianzi to summon Xie An's order to reach Xie An's mansion.
When Xie An heard this, he didn't dare to delay, and immediately left the mansion and walked in the direction of the palace.
Soon, Xie An arrived in the main hall of the palace, and at this time, the Empress Dowager Chu Garlic was already waiting in the main hall.
"Weichen Xie An visits the Queen Mother." Xie An saluted.
"Xie Aiqing, how is the investigation going, is there any progress?" Chu Garlic asked straightforwardly.
Obviously, the Empress Dowager Chu Garlic still attaches great importance to this matter, so she took the initiative to summon Xie An without waiting for Xie An to come to report.
Xie An thought for a moment, and said, "Empress Dowager, Weichen still hasn't been able to completely investigate the matter, and further investigation is needed." After speaking, he looked at Chu Garlic.
Obviously, Xie An didn't dare to draw conclusions about such a serious matter, after all, there are still many doubts about this matter, and these rumors alone cannot prove Hua An's origin, and at the same time, he cannot completely deny it.
When Chu Lianzi heard this, he was slightly disappointed, looked at Xie An, and said softly: "With Xie Aiqing's intuition, I think it is possible that the King of the North is really the descendant of the King of Chu." After speaking, he waited for Xie An's answer.
Xie An thought for a while, clasped his fists and said: "Empress Dowager Qiyu, this kind of thing, Weichen doesn't dare to make a conclusion!" After speaking, he looked at Chu Garlic.
Seeing that Xie An refused to express his position, Chu Lianzi paused for a moment and said softly: "Xie Aiqing, if the rumors are true, the king of the north will become a royal family, in this case, will the king of the north replace the emperor?" After speaking, he looked at Xie An.
Obviously, at this time, the strength of Hua'an's command is too great, and he is no longer in the imperial court all the year round, for this reason, Chu Lianzi is very worried about Hua'an, and is worried that Hua'an will usurp the throne and stand on his own.
Hearing this, Xie An nodded and pondered for a moment, he really didn't know how to answer this kind of thing, after all, Hua'an didn't have any evidence yet. (To be continued......)
