The two siblings, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, did not interject, but quietly listened to Wu Yue and continued: "It's just that in the thirteenth year of Emperor Kagura's relocation of the capital to Weicheng, he announced that he would go on patrol, and the area and location of the patrol were exactly the Lichen County where we are now and the dozens of county towns near here, and we are all cities directly under the rule of Songcheng. But under the original circumstances, some members of the royal Chen family were planted in Songcheng and our cities, wanting to seize our Songcheng and these neutral territories. That time, Emperor Kagura's tour was also for this purpose, and he absolutely could not allow the imperial Chen family to encroach on the sphere of influence he controlled. This is a big taboo, although the royal Chen family can control not many troops, they are royal after all, and in many ways they can use their status as royal family to coax the common people and some officials who are not clear. In this way, it is possible to encroach on the territory step by step. Naturally, Emperor Kagura couldn't tolerate such a situation, so this incident came about visiting Matsujo. ”

The two siblings, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, seemed to have some impressions of this, and Chen Xinyu once tearfully told them how her father died. The main reason is because of such a trip, such a trip directly led to the death of her father. This made Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan very curious, what was the reason for such a final result?

Wu Yue approached the two siblings, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, and deliberately lowered his voice and said, "According to rumors, Emperor Kagura suddenly fell seriously ill when he was out on patrol in Songcheng, and he only recovered after recuperating for a long time. But the foundation of his body was broken, and he died shortly after returning to Weicheng. ”

"After the death of Emperor Kagura, there was also a civil strife among his subordinates, and most of the forces supported Emperor Kagura's only child, the current Empress Chen Xinyu of Shengde, to inherit the throne of the emperor. If Empress Shengde had not ascended the throne, I am afraid that the situation in the country would not be the same as it is now."

"It's just a pity that among the forces that originally supported Emperor Kagura, there are still some forces that do not support Empress Shengdeok. Some of these forces were bought by the Chen family of the imperial family, and some of them were forces that did not support Empress Shengde, and it was these two forces that led to the fact that Empress Shengde's accession to the throne was not a very simple matter. They even united with the Chen family of the royal family, wanting to fight for the interests that belonged to them. ”

Now that the words have been said here, then the next thing, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two siblings, also probably know a little, these two forces, plus the situation including the Chen family of the royal family, have already wanted to declare war on Empress Shengde, who has not been on the throne for much time. However, in such an environment, the royal Chen family did not officially tear up their faces with Chen Xinyu, they were just controlling the situation behind their backs.

It's just that no matter what kind of forces you have, you never thought that although Chen Xinyu didn't have much time to ascend the throne, she was particularly vigorous in dealing with the things in front of her. In a short period of time, she had already sent two teams to defend Weicheng and counterattack. In a short time, the rebel army lost support and was wiped out in a short time. At this point, Chen Xinyu completely controlled the situation, and at the same time began to work hard. After several years of forbearance, she finally chose to launch a campaign against the royal Chen family when the Sealed State of Qi intervened in their departure. The strength controlled by Chen Xinyu Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan are still somewhat clear, and they still want to know the inside story of the Chen family of the royal family.

Wu Yue continued: "At this time, we can't know much about the situation, and we can't know much about the forces within the Chen family of the royal family. However, according to rumors, the current royal Chen family has not been strengthened to a strong situation, and they do not have the necessary resources such as copper and iron ore due to the geographical boundary, although the territorial boundary they control is not at a disadvantage. However, in terms of the lack of strategic resources, they cannot be reversed. Therefore, this is also the reason why I heard that the royal Chen family did not hesitate to buy weapons and armor from the feudal state at a high price, but this plan encountered bankruptcy, so their current power of the royal Chen family should not be very strong."

"That's true, I didn't expect you to come here" Just when Wu Yue's words fell, a slightly tired voice suddenly came from the three halls, and this voice Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two brothers and sisters, were also a little impressed. Isn't this the county order where the biggest power in this county wanted to unite the royal Chen family last time?

Wu Yue followed the figure and walked over, his face showed a trace of bitterness, as far as his own feelings were concerned, he still hoped that his top boss would be lost, and it was not too late. But if he still insists on going his own way, he still has no choice but to continue to follow him. This is also the loyalty of his most subordinates, but it does not mean that he supports the choices made by the county commander.

"Now, what are you going to do, you must know that after the Chen family of the royal family lost the substantial help of the feudal state, their strength has been greatly weakened in a large way. Wu Yue couldn't figure out what the county magistrate was thinking about now. Perhaps for this county magistrate, the interests of the people are not the first, the most important thing is his personal interests.

The county magistrate sighed, his slightly old face showed a deep sadness, and he didn't know whether to talk to himself or tell his story to the three people in front of him: "At the beginning, the reason why I, Xu Hao, made a decision to support the imperial Chen family, in addition to the forces that they wanted to give us actual power first, and some of them were about some of my own private thoughts. Now that I have learned that I have lost my way, I hope that you will forgive me, and if you have any instructions that you don't need to be polite, you will do them one by one. Now, I have come to understand that the name of the royal Chen family is not right, although it seems to be very powerful, but in fact it is internally unstable, and external support has not allowed them to obtain sufficient benefits. It can only be said that at this time, Empress Shengde dispatched the 100,000 troops that had already been prepared, and it was basically a sure victory. Leaving the country is gone, I naturally won't go against the sky, and besides, I don't want to bring the rebellion to Lichen County, which is now basically uninhabited, so everything here is up to the two of you. ”

Wu Yue was overjoyed, but Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two brothers and sisters, did not think so, although this sound very sincere, it is difficult to refuse, his attitude and way of speaking may Wu Yue believe him, but Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan The two brothers and sisters don't believe it very much. After all, this county magistrate Xu Hao was the most supportive of the imperial Chen family's orthodox rule before, and now he suddenly said that he was lost, and the two brothers and sisters still need to ask.

"In that case, then why did you turn a deaf ear to it when we persuaded you for so long. Moreover, it is not that we do not know that you have a very close relationship with the Chen family of the royal family. How do you explain this?" It was Feng Shanshan who spoke, and after recovering some physical strength, she returned to her original state of being a happy person and talking in everything she did. Moreover, Feng Shanshan's words were very sharp, so that the county commander Xu Hao did not have any room for refutation.

Of course, Xu Hao is not a person who sits idly by, he is also an old man who has been in the officialdom for decades. He is also quite familiar with this kind of sharp and harsh questioning. So, after Feng Shanshan asked this sentence, Xu Hao immediately said: "If the two of you don't believe in Zaixia's sincerity, Zaixia will immediately go to the surrounding counties that have been rebelled by the royal Chen family to persuade them to be loyal to Empress Shengde, which is the trend of the times." Xu Hao was also quiet, and he had already exposed his bottom line.

The two siblings, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, now understand why this Xu Hao is so anxious to establish the best relationship with them now, because now dozens of county towns that were originally in the neutral realm, including Chen County, have already expressed their attitude, indicating that they are loyal to the royal Chen family. That being the case, if they don't take a stand, they will fall behind them, and they will most likely be in a situation that is not pleasing to either side.

Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two siblings, couldn't help but feel a faint sense of disdain in their hearts for Xu Hao's attitude, but the current situation is still unclear, and they will not be so rash. In this way, it will ruin the final plan that they have already made. Such a choice, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two siblings, naturally would not do it. Then, what they need to do now is to first grasp the military power in this Lichen County, so that they can also logically join Chen Xinyu's henchman Zhou Yu to carry out the next battle plan.

Feng Yuchong smiled faintly, he already had a plan in his heart at this moment, since this was the case, he didn't need to continue to be polite. He smiled and said: "Since this is the case, then please ask the county commander Xu to go everywhere to comfort the county towns that have already returned to the imperial Chen family, and tell them that Empress Shengde is lenient, and does not care about the fact that they surrendered to the enemy, as long as they are lost, there is still a chance to make up for their mistakes." As for the army that is now leaving Chen County, it will be handed over to Wu Zhutou to be controlled, and we will set off at once to meet this general of Zhou Yu. "But this" Xu Hao suddenly realized that he had made a very unwise decision, he just wanted to regret it, but he saw the white jade jade pendant held high in Feng Yuchong's hand, this jade pendant represented the sacred and inviolable majesty as the Empress Chen Xinyu of Shengde. When he saw this jade pendant, Xu Hao was immediately deflated, "Then I'll leave everything to you!
