Outside Hefeng City.

Li Tianfu was chatting with Yuan Dongqing at this time, and the smile was called a flattery! People who didn't know thought that Li Tianfu was asking Yuan Dongqing for something!

"Marquis Yuan, this time today, it can be seen that the old guy Qian Miaocai is also a little scared, and he can't wait to form an alliance with us, for fear that their Qian family will be dragged into the water. ”

Yuan Dongqing's face was expressionless, and he glanced at Li Tianfu and said, "Second fat! You are very active today! But you pretend to be quite similar." ”

Li Tianfu smiled awkwardly and didn't say much, his old man was not there, and he couldn't beat Yuan Dongqing, so whatever he said.

Then he smiled again: "Hou Ye's words today, it is estimated that the impact on these people is not small, after they go back, they should be crazy to collect the intelligence of the three in the west, and they will definitely be a lot afraid of the Yuan family." ”

Yuan Dongqing said lightly: "What they do has nothing to do with Ben Hou, Ben Hou just wants to be the first to inform them how strong His Highness is, so that they can have a mental preparation, and save themselves a little overwhelmed when they are approached by His Highness." ”

Li Tianfu suddenly wondered: "Then why didn't the Hou Ye directly point it out, His Royal Highness's current strength, and he is not afraid of them, in Donghai Prefecture, they have no second way except to surrender." ”

Yuan Dongqing was silent for a while, and then said calmly: "Don't talk about the unclear relationship between the Qian family and King Xuan, even if they don't take refuge in King Xuan, who knows if they will take His Highness's information to make a petition." ”

After speaking, he paused for a moment, and continued: "Moreover, among the remaining three families, who can be sure that they will be persuaded by His Royal Highness Nioh, if the secret is leaked at that time, then His Highness will instantly become the target of the three kings in the west, so it is not appropriate to expose it now." ”

"When will that be?"

"Wait, wait until King Xuan, King Wen, and King Wu all enter the arena one after another, and then several of them will definitely be under great pressure, and then see what they do. ”

At the same time, Haiyuan City and Xia Ren were also discussing with Fang Xuanling how to subdue the rest of the family.

"Your Highness, the most important thing in Donghai Prefecture is the six marquis, which happens to be the six great families, and now we have won two of them, as long as we win one, then we can use our power to suppress people and forcibly subdue the remaining three. ”

After hearing this, Xia Ren was a little puzzled and said, "Forcibly subdued, what kind of forcible subjugation method?"

Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "Actually, it's deterrence first, and then Huairou." ”

"Deterrence means that His Highness reveals some of his own strength to them, letting them know that in Donghai Prefecture, if they don't listen to His Highness, then they will not be able to move an inch, and the other three kings' forces are all in the west, too far away from Donghai Prefecture, it is impossible to provide them with assistance, so they can only rely on themselves. ”

"But we already have the support of the three Hou Masters, plus our own strength, the remaining three will definitely not be able to fight us, whether they are defeated by us or join us, we have to let them decide for themselves, provided that we have to get the support of another Hou Ye. ”

After speaking, he continued: "Of course, this is only the first step, the next step is Huairou, point out the interests with them, and explain how strong our power will be if they join us, coupled with the military strength of His Royal Highness, the possibility of winning the throne at that time will be much greater than that of the other three kings." ”

Then he promised them some sweetness, saying that when His Highness ascended to the throne, he could give them more convenience. ”

Xia Ren nodded, and then asked, "Then which Hou Ye should we choose next?"

Fang Xuanling pondered for a while and said slowly: "Qian family." ”

"The Qian family?"

"Yes, it's the Qian family. ”

Xia Ren was suddenly a little puzzled, "It seems that the strength of the Qian family is not as weak as the Li family, how can we accept it, and my third emperor brother seems to be also in contact with the Qian family, right?"

Fang Xuanling nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, it is precisely because King Xuan is in contact with the Qian family that we will choose the Qian family." ”

"Why?"

"Because as long as King Xuan is in constant contact with the Qian family, then he will definitely cite the attention of King Wen and King Wu, and now because of the affairs of the Yuan family, these two must be very sensitive to every move in Donghai Prefecture, once they find out that the Qian family and King Xuan have more contact, they will definitely attack the Qian family. ”

"Because of the matter of the Yuan family now, they must not have figured it out, they don't know whether the Yuan family is the person of King Xuan, but they must be suspicious, not only because King Xuan has not targeted the Yuan family, but also King Xuan is also the first to contact the forces of Donghai Prefecture. ”

"At that time, in order to prevent King Xuan from successfully winning over the Qian family, King Wen and King Wu will definitely target the Qian family like the Yuan family, and His Royal Highness will have a chance to make a move. ”

"Then what if my three emperor brothers go to help the Qian family break out of the siege as soon as they make a move?

Xia Ren asked another question.

Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "This depends on the Yuan family." ”

"The Yuan family?"

"Yes, when the time comes, let Marquis Yuan have more dealings with the Qian family, to create an illusion to the outside world, that is, the relationship between the Qian family and the Yuan family is very close, you must know that the relationship between the two families was not very close before, but suddenly the relationship is close, so what?"

"At that time, King Xuan will think that the Qian family and the Yuan family may have taken refuge in King Wen or King Wu together, so they can be so close, but he doesn't know who he will turn to, and he still has to wonder if King Wen and King Wu have anything to do with the military? Is it possible that joining forces against the Yuan family at that time was just a bitter ploy?"

And King Wen and King Wu will also doubt King Xuan, is it that he has won over the Yuan family and the Qian family at the same time, and will definitely increase the intensity of the attack at that time, at this time, King Xuan will definitely also suspect whether he is using the bitter meat trick again? ”

"At that time, we can take advantage of this time and use the same method to win over the Qian family. ”

After hearing this, Xia Ren nodded and smiled: "Yes, with this method, this king has a high probability of being able to take the Qian family under his command." ”

Then Xia Ren sent a letter to the Yuan family, explaining Fang Xuanling's strategy and asking the Yuan family to fully cooperate.

After receiving Xia Ren's letter, Yuan Dongqing really had to go to Qian's house every few days, and people who didn't know thought that the two of them had some kind of unsavory relationship.

The final result was as Fang Xuanling expected, suddenly many people in the court began to target the Qian family, and the method was the same as the previous one for the Yuan family, but from the Yuan family's favoritism to the Qian family's collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.

As soon as this reason came out, it made the Qian family angry and tried their best to refute it, but it didn't have much effect, this time King Wen and King Wu were determined to die, although the Qian family has a long heritage and is not so easy to trip, but it can still be done to make the Qian family hurt their muscles and bones.

King Wen and King Wu are targeting, and King Xuan is also watching coldly as expected, because King Xuan knows that he has no contact with the Yuan family, so now that the Qian family suddenly has such close contacts with the Yuan family, it is very likely that he has secretly taken refuge in a certain prince, so it is best to wait and see what happens.

If Qian Jiazheng can't stand it, he can make another move, otherwise it is very likely that he will be deceived by others using the bitter meat trick again, then he will be used as a gunman by Qian Jiazheng's real mastermind behind the scenes, and he will recruit the firepower of another prince who has nothing to do with this matter.

When the time comes, the mastermind behind the scenes and another tool man will target him together, and the Xuan King, who is no match for those two, is likely to be completely swept out of this dispute.

I have to say that Xia Ren was hiding in the shadows, and then using such a trick, completely messed up the three princes, and for a while, he couldn't tell who was behind the Yuan family.

However, this time, if Wen Jinghai makes another move, it is likely to cause the doubts of the three kings.

At that time, King Xuan will definitely completely give up the hope of winning over the Qian family and join the ranks of the Qian family together, and King Wen and King Wu will definitely remove most of King Xuan's suspicion when they see that King Xuan has also joined.

At that time, Wen Jinghai alone may not be able to withstand the oppression of the three kings, and he still needs to find other foreign aid.

So Xia Ren had already sent a letter to the south in advance, asking Xiao Zhan and them to help him.

However, after this time, Xia Ren is very likely to be exposed, and the three kings are not stupid, the same move twice in a row, plus King Xuan himself will be killed, and most of the suspicions on King Xuan can be cleared.

And the remaining possibilities are very small, the only possibilities are Xia Ren and Dewang Xia De.

Xia De and Xia Wu are the same faction, but the two are not the same mother, Xia Wu was born to Yang Guifei, and Xia De was born to Chen Guifei, because their two forces are not as good as the Cao family, so they joined forces to deal with the Cao family.

Because Xia Wu is talented, Xia De exists as an assist, but after all, unlike Xia Wen and Xia Xuan, their younger brothers are all close and are under sight, so Xia De is likely to be dissatisfied with Xia Wu and secretly develop his power.

As for Xia Ren, it was also because he was the only prince who opened a mansion except for the three kings, and he would not escape the life of being investigated, although he had avoided the sight of the three kings many times, but next, if Xia De was not suspicious, then even if they didn't believe it, they would know that Xia Ren was doing all this.

However, the three kings should investigate Xia De first, and Xia Ren bought some time, which allowed him to completely control the six major families in Donghai Prefecture.

At that time, he will not be afraid of his three brothers, and at that time, it is estimated that the assessment will also start, and there is basically no time to do anything about it, so he will work hard, develop himself, and wait for the assessment to begin.

After all, Emperor Xia said that his time was short, otherwise Xia Ren would not have started to subdue Donghai Prefecture so quickly.

If Emperor Xia can hold out for a while longer, Xia Ren can develop slowly, subduing Donghai Prefecture by boiling frogs in warm water, and maybe he can also use the Sun family to attract a few forces from Nanban Prefecture.
