Chapter 216: In the Count

Xiao Huan didn't take the 200,000 stone grain to heart at all.

In his opinion, there was nothing unusual about him spending money to buy 200,000 stone of grain for his own family.

All his attention was on Chang'an City.

Empress Dowager Gu took the King of Qin, who was still a baby, and left Luoyang ahead of schedule and went to Chang'an City to take up the domain.

Gu Xia, on the other hand, was sick in bed and had not been to court for several days.

Xiao Huan and Song Qian were locked in the study to discuss: "I have to find a way to figure out whether Gu Xia is really sick or fake?" The child is so young, how could Empress Dowager Gu mention going to Chang'an City. It doesn't make sense. Either Gu Xia was too sick to be able to shelter Empress Dowager Gu, or the Beiliang royal family had changed, and there was a gap between Gu Xia and the new emperor. ”

Song Qian also thought so, he said, "I'll send someone to investigate." However, what about the second prince's side? ”

The one who escorted the Empress Dowager Gu to Chang'an City was actually the second prince.

Xiao Huan smiled: "Contact the second prince directly and ask him what to do?" We made an appointment at the beginning, and he found a way to let the fifth prince escort the Empress Dowager Gu to Chang'an City. Now that the Five Princes are in the domain, it is impossible for us to assassinate the Five Princes. ”

"The second prince's side, forget it!" Song Qian hesitated.

What Xiao Huan had in mind, Song Qian understood very well in his heart.

He's going to kill the second prince!

But why did he kill the second prince, Song Qian didn't understand.

In his opinion, it is more troublesome to make friends with the eldest prince and kill the second prince, it is better to make friends with the second prince and the eldest prince from afar, and find a way to muddy the water in the pool of Beiliang, and they have a greater chance.

If you kill the second prince, there will be no one to contain the eldest prince. Emperor Beiliang will definitely raise the five princes and the eldest prince as opponents, so that they can check and balance each other. It's just that they don't have any friendship with the five princes, not to mention, and they have offended Gu Xia, if Gu Xia and the five princes join forces, the eldest prince will not be able to deal with it at all. Once the political situation in Beiliang stabilized, it would be more difficult for them to go on a northern expedition.

Xiao Huan sneered and said, "No! It's still going as planned! After explaining his words to the second prince, you can kill him. Just do what we planned with the Second Prince. If the second prince asks, you can say to him bluntly, there are people like him, please ask us to kill the person who escorted the Empress Dowager Gu to Chang'an City. As for why the person who escorted Empress Dowager Gu to Chang'an City became him, that was his own business, and it had nothing to do with us! ”

Song Qian hesitated for a while, but still whispered "yes" and retreated.

Xiao Huan pushed open the window, the bright moon came into view, the white moonlight shone in the courtyard, and the warm breeze of the spring night was gently blowing on his face, making people feel peaceful and beautiful.

He called Xiao Bei.

Xiao Bei immediately appeared under the eaves.

He said: "You go and talk to Qian San and them, we are going to fight and Tuoba Shou!" ”

Xiao Bei was taken aback.

Xiao Huan smiled proudly: "It's just to catch him off guard." Otherwise, when he comes to his senses, it will take too much time and energy for us to win against him. We don't have time to fight a protracted battle with Tuoba Shou. Gotta kill him quickly. ”

In this way, Beiliang lost the second prince and the eldest prince at the same time, and because of the previous war, he consumed a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, in order to recuperate, he would definitely turn a blind eye to the loss of the fiefdom of the eldest prince.

This is his chance!

What he wants has never been a tribute, but a city!

Only in this way, another Northern Expedition, another big victory, can Lu Yuan be completely suppressed.

Just like before.

The first time he impeached Lu Huai, he was so well prepared, but in the end, he only made Lu Huai lose his office. After the victory of the Northern Expedition, he impeached Lu Huai, which cost Lu Huai his life and unloaded one of Lu Yuan's arms.

This time, he's going to have a big win too.

also unloaded Lu Huai's other arm.

Xiao Huan sneered.

The warm facial features were as cold as snow in the moonlight, and sharp as a blade.

Xiao Rong walked over cautiously.

He had seen too much of Xiao Huan's expression at this time.

has always been in awe of such Xiao Huan.

He said softly: "The eldest princess sent someone to ask, when will the Grand Governor go back?" ”

Xiao Huan's coldness is like snow that meets the sun, melting in the moonlight little by little.

"I'll go back now!" He said, "You go and talk to the eldest princess, just say that I talked to Mr. Song and forgot the time for a while." ”

Now that he has decided to go back, do you need him to explain it?

Xiao Rong couldn't understand Xiao Huan's mind a little, but it didn't prevent him from doing it immediately.

He trotted to Xiahou Yu.

Xiahou Yu was preparing to hold a flower party in the past two days, and she was bored after dinner, she sat by the water pavilion and watched the servants at home tending to the flowers and plants to be used.

Hearing that Xiao Huan was coming over soon, she asked, "Has the Governor had dinner?" ”

"I've used it!" Xiao Rong said with a smile, but said in his heart, the Metropolitan Governor is coming over soon, why didn't the eldest princess ask the Metropolitan Governor directly?

He was thinking that Xiao Huan was coming.

Xiahou Yu stood up and greeted him, and said with a smile: "Things are all over?" ”

"Nope!" Xiao Huan smiled, "Our official business, like your housework, will never be finished. ”

The metaphor is novel.

Xiahou Yu pursed his lips and smiled.

The two sat down at the water pavilion.

Xiao Huan asked her, "How is the matter of the Flower Club?" What do I need to do that day? ”

Xiahou Yu thought for a while, and said, "You welcomed guests at the door that day!" ”

Xiao Huan laughed and said, "Do you really want me to welcome guests at the door?" Then I'll just welcome guests! ”

Xiahou Yu pretended to be solemn and said: "Let you welcome the guests, not to welcome the guests in, but also to accompany the guests to the hall and arrange refreshments for the guests, which is the end." ”

Xiao Huan laughed again, and saluted her: "It's better to be respectful than to obey!" I'll go to Xiao Rong and ask him to help me prepare. ”

Xiahou Yu thought that if those guests saw Xiao Huan like this, they didn't know if they would be surprised and at a loss, and said "don't dare".

She couldn't help but laugh too.

Xiao Huan asked her who she had invited.

"The families of those soldiers under your command!" Xiahou Yu said with a smile.

Xiao Huan was very surprised.

Xiahou Yu explained: "Even if those officials are important, the soldiers who follow you are the most important relationship we should maintain. At this point, she said, "When are you going north?" ”

Or Xiahou Yu knows him best!

You can't be wrong every time!

Xiao Huan sighed in his heart, but his face was not obvious, and said: "I will go north in two or three days." There will be no hype. Prepare to do it while Tuoba Shou is still immersed in the death of the second prince. ”

The second prince invited Xiao Huan to kill the fifth prince, but he became the ghost of Xiao Huan's sword.

If he knew what was going on, he didn't know if he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.

Xiahou Yu said: "The eldest prince is brave and good at fighting......

The implication is that he is not sure.

Xiao Huan smiled: "You can rest assured!" They have already had a round of internal friction, their strength has been greatly reduced, and it is only a matter of time before they win or lose, but I don't want to listen to the voice of Jiankang City who question me, so I want to solve it quickly. ”

She didn't understand the war, so she couldn't evaluate it.

I can only help Xiao Huan pack the cage as much as possible and bring everything I can to Xiao Huan.

At this moment, Du Hui came with news.
