Chapter 25: Yan Zhou's Shocking Changes (13)

"It's not time yet!" I said slowly.

"Brother Wei Chen, you mean, there is not enough fuse to trigger their infighting. Shangguan Lingxi said smartly.

"Yes, although they are now as enmity as the sea, they have no reason to send troops. I said calmly, "Moreover, now the Youyan Empire and the Western Qin Empire are staring at the Yanzhou Empire!

"So, Brother Wei Chen, what are you going to do next?" Shangguan Lingxi asked.

"Although there are foreign enemies who covet them, I didn't say that I don't have the ability to kill them completely!" I said slowly, "You may not know, but I got the title of Heavenly General from my brother who commanded the military and political affairs of the fifty-eight provinces, including Shannan, Shanyou, Jiangdong, and Yannan. ”

"So, what is Brother Wei Chen going to do?" Shangguan Lingxi asked cutely.

"Of course, it's to control the military power!" I said slowly, "I've seen the empire, in fact, it's really interesting, in the gap between the four kings of Jin, Zhao, Wei, and Yun, there is also a Yanbei Province that owns the four four ferries in the middle reaches of the Yanjiang River outside the jurisdiction of the 39 prefectures, and the only four ferries in the hands of the imperial court: Shuo'an Mansion, Yuanping Mansion, Ningshuo Mansion, Xinghe Mansion, Zhangxing Mansion, Jianyong Mansion, Tongxing Mansion, Anxing Mansion and Xingyi Mansion and other local administrative districts, so I am ready to start with this Yanbei Province first, and first grasp the military and political power of Yanbei Province. ”

"Brother Wei Chen, I support you. Shangguan Lingxi said cutely.

At this time, when the governor of Yanbei Province, Yuwen Ji, received the edict from the imperial court, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, because he got information that the itinerary of the newly arrived Tianzhi general had already been leaked to their master by those traitors in the Governor's Mansion, the Civil Government and the Inspectorate's Mansion.

Indeed, just as Yuwen Ji thought, along the way, the assassins in ambush were really one after another, but I'm afraid what they didn't expect was that I only brought a girl, and then didn't even bring a guard, so I went directly to the location of the three prefectures of Yanbei Province - Xingning Mansion in Shaozhou. So, although they saw the ambush along the way, they thought that the honor guard of a great general who held the power of the fifty-eight military and political powers could be just two people who had just reached adulthood and the other looked like a young girl!

"It seems that even if it is Yanbei Dao that the imperial court can control, I am afraid that there are a lot of traitors!" I said lightly, "Look, my first step to Yanbei Dao is to sweep away the moles!"

"But, Brother Wei Chen, what method do you use to sweep away the traitor?" Shangguan Lingxi asked suspiciously.

"Hehe, you don't have to ask, you'll know when the time comes!" I said with a smile.

"Well, I want to see what Brother Wei Chen do?" Shangguan Lingxi pouted and said in a snort.

"Don't worry, just wait and see the show!" I said.

Soon I arrived at the province of Xingning, which was indeed a relatively large city, according to my estimates, about 3,800 square kilometers in circumference and with a population of about 650,000. I found someone, asked, and then I knew the location of the governor, and then when I walked to the majestic governor's mansion, I was ready to try to go in, although the soldiers standing in front of the mansion were strange, but they were not forcibly driven away, it seems that this Yuwen halberd governor is a good general!

Sure enough, when Yuwen Ji learned that it was the newly arrived Heavenly Grant General who came to visit, he was already an old general who was over three thousand years old, but he didn't put on any show at all, and said to me bluntly, "Hey, since the old man took office two thousand six hundred years ago, he has been slandered and harassed by those despicable people many times, but fortunately, His Majesty the former Emperor and His Majesty the current Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince trust the old minister, so that he can continue to do this position as the governor." Don't hide it from the general, this spy in Yanbei Province is really endless! This time, the old man is still worried that you have been assassinated by those traitor kings!"

"Boy, I also want to thank the old general for caring about me, but along the way, what I think about the most is that I need to completely control this Yanbei Dao in the hands of the imperial court now, so that I can have the most basic territory. I said slowly.

"But it's hard. Not to mention that the traitors were too perfectly hidden, and it would be difficult to arrest some of them if there was not enough evidence of their identities. Old General Yuwen said with some embarrassment.

"Don't worry, I have my own way. I said calmly.
