Chapter 291: Where to start
Lan Jing'an couldn't help but think a little more, it seems that Brother Qingyun's coming to Xiangyang this time is also part of his plan, and he has already become an important player in his chess game. Lan Jing'an now understands that the reason why she has not been able to win against Brother Qingyun is not that she is not good enough, but that she is not as ruthless as him, ruthless to others, and even more ruthless to herself!
For the first time, Lan Jingan tried to look at Xiao Qingyun from an outsider's point of view. She suddenly understood why Mr. Qingtian insisted on not joining the ranks, and even tried to persuade her to take the position. At the root, Mr. Qingtian is too smart, so he is afraid! He knows the other side of Brother Qingyun better than himself. There are so many people in this world who are in awe of Brother Qingyun, but the only person who really understands what he is afraid of is Mr. Qingtian.
Lan Jing'an smiled bitterly again, in the final analysis, Brother Qingyun's decision this time was not all for her. He preemptively arranged the northwest, and since then he has given up cooperation with Xia Guo, in order to cut off Xie Weining's possible contact with her before Xie Weining withdraws from the southwest.
He forced her back into the army, trying to silence all voices who were suspicious of her for her accomplishments. As long as she accompanies him to take Yonghua City together, who can take the position of queen besides her?
It's just that this battle will really last longer, as Xie Weining hoped before. And she will inevitably fulfill her promise to Xie Weining and be an out-and-out untrustworthy person.
Lan Jing'an knew completely that it was not that she had cut off their back road from the moment she promised him last night, but that he had already cut off all the back roads when he made the decision. Now she must move forward hand in hand with him.
Xiao Qingyun looked at Lan Jing'an quietly and frowned and thought, her hand was still quietly held in her hand, and she never pulled it out. This big gamble not only pressed the Qianjun, but also pressed all of him. But at this moment, he knew that he had won this game.
Lan Jing'an finally spoke: "I will first get Xue Wei and the others back to Jiangling, and then return to the army in April and May of the following year." What do you think? Xiao Qingyun nodded: "It's very thoughtful." ”
Lan Jing'an was angry when he saw that he looked confident, and asked with a frown: "Aren't you afraid that I will not be as good as you want?" Xiao Qingyun took her into his arms: "I'm afraid." But I believe in you. ”
Lan Jing'an still softened in the end, letting him gently stroke her long hair. Xiao Qingyun felt that Ahri at this time, just like the red fox she had raised, put away her fangs and claws, lazily lay on herself, and let him do it. He leaned into Lan Jing'an's ear and said softly, "Ahri, thank you." ”
Lan Jing'an didn't say anything, and even simply closed his eyes. Since this is the case, it is better to think about how to deal with it in the future. Especially to find an excuse to get Xue Wei and the five of them back from Xie Weining, the people around her, she must be responsible for ensuring their safety.
When Bi Luan knocked on the door and came in to deliver tea, Lan Jing'an sat up straight. Bi Luan put down the tea and said to Lan Jing'an: "I estimate that Su Mei and they will come back in more than an hour." I'll go to the alley to guard first, and then ask General Jiang to inform you that you can go back quickly. ”
Lan Jing'an shook his head: "No need. It's better to do a little flawless. In half an hour, I'll be back next door with you. ”
Seeing that Xiao Qingyun didn't squeak, Bi Luan responded: "Okay, I'll pick you up in half an hour." With that, he went out.
Xiao Qingyun poured Lan Jing'an a cup of hot tea. Lan Jing'an had already changed his mind, and talked to him about the affairs in the army again: "Where are you going to start next year?" ”
Xiao Qingyun asked her, "What do you mean?" Lan Jing'an didn't even need to look at the map, so he replied: "The eastern capital is Luoyang." ”
Xiao Qingyun turned his cup: "Attacking Luoyang is indeed the fastest way. However, I want to pull out Jizhou and Merge State first. Since Lan Jing'an realized Xiao Qingyun's ruthless side, he was not surprised by his decision, but said: "I don't think that person will leave, he should still have a little backbone." ”
Xiao Qingyun replied: "No matter whether he will leave or not, I will first destroy the possibility of him escaping." Besides, isn't that more interesting? When he said this, his eyes were cold and did not have a trace of warmth.
Lan Jing'an took a sip of hot tea and said, "Okay, I know." When I got back to Gangneung, I thought about it. Have you discussed this matter with Shen Junshi and the others? ”
Xiao Qingyun shook his head: "No." I would like to ask your opinion first. If you don't agree, I'll arrange to start with Luoyang. ”
Lan Jing'an stroked the rim of the cup back and forth, half-squinted his eyes and said, "No need." It's the same where you start first, anyway, in the end, not a single state or county can be left for him! ”
Xiao Qingyun likes Ahri's gentle appearance, but he also likes her ruthless and fierce expression towards her enemies. He was looking at her obsessively, and heard Lan Jing'an say: "However, you can also feint to attack Luoyang, and you are not afraid that Zhao Hu, the old thief, will not be fooled." ”
Xiao Qingyun knew that once Lan Jing'an changed his mind, he had an idea. He asked directly: "Then I'll go to feint and attack, and you will lead people to fight and merge the state?" ”
Lan Jing'an pondered: "It's too early to say this. But a feint is definitely better for you to lead your troops. And once you take the state, the focus will return to Luoyang, so it is the easiest for you to sit there. However, in this matter, you'd better discuss it with Shen Junshi as soon as possible, you have an idea, don't worry too much about what I mean. After all, relying on communication to discuss such a major matter is not safe, and it is too troublesome. ”
Xiao Qingyun heard her frequently mention Shen Rongzhi, and couldn't help but say with a bitter face: "He's angry with me." I'm done coaxing you here, and I'll have to coax him after the New Year. ”
Lan Jing'an burst out laughing: "Yes." If you want to send 80,000 people to the northwest, it's no wonder that he doesn't rush with you. If you want me to say, he attaches more importance to the cadres and soldiers in his heart than you. ”
Xiao Qingyun reached out and pinched her face: "Little conscienceless, it's not all for you." ”
Lan Jing'an reached out and took his paw away: "Tap, be careful to pinch me red." ”
Xiao Qingyun said dissatisfiedly: "A Xia Guo is meticulous, what do you have to be afraid of." Having said that, however, he withdrew his hand.
He and she both know that Lao Du is not terrible, what is really terrible is his master. Xiao Qingyun had already gotten the results he wanted when he came over this time, so he naturally didn't want to make any extraneous complications. In case Xie Weining was alarmed, knowing that Ahri had seen him, maybe he would use some means against him.
Lan Jing'an talked about Jiang Yutang again: "Why do you want him to go to Jiangling?" Do you want to use his hand to prove that I am healed? Actually, I don't have to, I have a good relationship with his aunt Jiang Mingshu, and she will help me. ”
Xiao Qingyun smiled: "You misunderstood. At first, I wanted to find someone to treat you and help you recover. Xiao Qingyun simply gritted his teeth and said the word "cure", but Lan Jing'an made him look embarrassed and lowered his head.
