Seeing Wan Yan Xi trembling with excitement, all the people in the room were silent, especially Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, who knew all the inside information, and they bowed their heads and were silent, they really didn't know how to tell Wan Yan Xi, he trusted Brother Wen very much is the beginning of the biggest disaster in the Jin Kingdom, if it weren't for Wan Yan and Wen resolutely resisting Wan Yan Zongcheng and Wan Yan Ping's disaster relief, the situation in the Jin Kingdom would not have reached such a bad point now.

"Grandpa Guo...... General...... Your Highness ......" Wan Yanxi looked over one by one, and saw that they were all silent with their heads bowed, and a very bad feeling lingered in their hearts, "Everyone...... We don't think ...... With Brother Wen he ...... Did he really do something like that? Impossible, he always told me that the people come first in everything, I didn't understand this before, and I laughed at him. He...... He didn't annoy me, he just said that he would understand when I grew up. I understand now, but they say he didn't. ”

"Wanyan Gongzi......" Shen Cha and Shen Haolin exchanged a look, and decided to be this villain himself and tell Wanyan Xi the truth. Since I said that I have grown up and understood the reason, then I will tell you that the disaster relief incident was also the fuse for the assassination of Wanyan and Master Wen. ”

"General?" Wan Yanxi's lowered head suddenly raised and stared at Shen Cha, "This...... And what does that mean? ”

"When the disaster just happened, Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyan Ping, one stayed in Yiqing Mansion to call on the clan, nobles, and nobles to provide disaster relief, and the other led his own soldiers to the most severely affected states and counties. However, the clansmen, nobles, and nobles led by Wanyan and Wen are still stubborn and resolutely do not support disaster relief. What they said was so chilling that I won't paraphrase it. Seeing that Wan Yan Xi was already in tears, Shen Cha sighed softly, took a handkerchief that had never been used and threw it to him, "The incident in Wuma Town happened too suddenly, and I didn't have time to see Wan Yan and Master Wen, so there is no way to talk to him, and there is no way to explore the meaning behind him doing this." However, it now seems that his purpose is clear. ”

"Yes...... What is it? ”

"To remove all obstacles to the regain of the throne." Shen Cha sighed heavily, "Don't blame him, don't have any bad feelings for him, it's understandable for him to do this." Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyan Ping's reputation among the people is not very good, and whether they provide disaster relief or not, they can't save their reputation at all. At that time, there were rumors that the money they used for disaster relief was itself scavenged from the people. If it weren't for their exploitation before, even if it was such a rainstorm, the people would not have fallen to such a point. ”

This statement...... Be...... It's true...... Is it? Wan Yanxi cried so hard that she sobbed, "The people ...... The people are really ...... Think so? ”

"That's true." Song Qiyun also sighed, "There are businessmen in Jiaping Pass who have been lucky enough to escape these disasters, but their clansmen and family members are in the Jin Kingdom, and they have also suffered disasters of varying degrees, although it is not so serious, but there are indeed such rumors." And......" he glanced at Wan Yan Xi, who was gradually calming down, "The people don't have any antipathy to Wan Yan and Lord Wen not participating in disaster relief, because the taxes have increased, and the industries of the clan and nobles have also been greatly affected, even if they have the heart to provide disaster relief, they don't have the power to provide disaster relief." ”

"So......" Wan Yanxi couldn't believe that this matter was going like this, "So, the people didn't blame Brother Wen at all, but supported them very much?" ”

"Don't talk about support, I just understand their approach very well, and the life of the clan relatives and nobles is not easy!" Song Qiyun spread his hands, "Later, the news of the death of Wan Yan and Lord Wen was transmitted back to the Jin Kingdom and back to Yiqing Mansion, and the people were also talking about it, but they all agreed that Wan Yan Ping got rid of Wan Yan and Lord Wen. At that time, there were a lot of criticisms from Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyanping in Jinguo, and the people did not support them. ”

"She probably didn't expect that she would end up like this." Wan Yanxi sighed, "The smart one was confused for a while. ”

"To be serious, because Wan Yanping has too many scheming, we can't deal with her according to common sense." Shen Cha stood up, pulled Song Qiyun to the corner together, and carried a sand table that had never been used before. "Red represents us, blue represents Liao soldiers, and green represents Jin soldiers." She inserted small chess pieces representing the colors of Xia, Liao, and Jin on the sand table. "Jiaping Guancheng needs to face two border passes in the Jin country, and three on the Liao side. This time, the dispatch of troops is still dominated by the Liao people, which we have already negotiated before. She looked at Yan Xi, "Yelu Lan and Ye Lu Nan should have also told you, right?" ”

"Yes, they did."

"These two sons or plus the sons of Qi Zhifeng and Xiao Fengqi, they may attack one of the three cities of the Jin Kingdom together, which way to follow, it depends on their own decisions, this is not something we should meddle in. As for our ......"

"Wait a minute, General." Wan Yanxi interrupted Shen Cha's words, "I can understand Gongzi Qi, but Gongzi Xiao ...... How could it be...... Coming with them? ”

"Well...... It's their own arrangement, so it's not convenient for us to ask. Shen Cha smiled at Wan Yan Xi, and continued the previous topic, "As long as the war is together, the Liao soldiers begin to attack the border pass of the Jin Kingdom, and Wan Yan Ping's side will receive the news." The first thing she will do is to strengthen the vigilance of the two border passes opposite to Jiaping Guancheng to prevent Great Xia from taking advantage of the situation, but what we have to do is to stand still. ”

"Still?" Wan Yan Xi frowned, "Then the pressure on our side will be very great, and the additional troops sent by Wan Yan Ping will all be on our side." ”

"That's what I want." Shen Cha smiled faintly, "What is the strength of the Liao soldiers, Wanyan Gongzi has a number in his heart, otherwise he would not ask the Liao people for help, right?" You have to believe in them, you have the ability to withstand the huge pressure exerted by Wan Yanping. ”

"Do they know what they're up against?"

"Of course, they're more than willing to get that attention." Shen Cha nodded slightly, "Besides, it's not that we don't do nothing, the role of the Liao soldiers is to hold back Yan Ping's main force, this period of time will not be too long, but it will not be too short, it depends on when the vigilance of the two gates faced by Jiaping Guancheng can be relaxed, and when can it be relaxed." ”

"Wait until they really slack off and take it down in one fell swoop?" Seeing Shen Cha nodding, Wan Yanxi breathed a sigh of relief, "But ...... There is a problem, if you take it down, you have to take it over, but you still have to move in the direction of Yiqing Mansion, so ...... That...... What should I do next? ”

"What we're talking about now is just a plan, and what we're going to do is completely different from what we're going to do." Song Qiyun held the teacup, looked at Wan Yanxi and explained, "The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and we need to change the plan at any time according to what happens. Moreover, I believe that if there is a real fight, some people's positions will change. ”

"Some? What does it mean? ”

"Those who neither support nor support Wan Yanping." Shen Cha lightly tapped the sand table twice, "That is, the nobles who trapped Wan Yan Ping in Yiqing Mansion now, they are not clan relatives, but what they want is to compete with Wan Yan Ping for the throne of the Jin Kingdom." When the Liao soldiers attacked the city, they might choose to ally with the Liao, or they might choose to join forces with Wan Yanping. ”

"Your Highness is right, the biggest variable this time is this group of people. If they choose to support Wan Yan Gongzi, we can work together inside and outside to win Wan Yan Ping in one fell swoop. But on the contrary, if they want to cooperate with Yan Ping...... "Shen Cha spread his hands," we will fight a little harder, but we can't rule out the possibility of their own infighting. She looked at the hourglass that was set aside, "It's not too early, let's stop here today!" ”

Bai Meng, who hadn't spoken much, nodded, stood up, took Yan Xi's cloak and threw it to him, "It's really not early, it's time to go back." ”

After listening to Bai Meng's words, Wan Yanxi also stood up, saluted Song Jue respectfully, and solemnly gave Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, and Song Qiyun a bow, and then put on a cloak and a hood and left with Bai Meng.
