Chapter 124: Undercurrent

"Nan Xiao is the military advisor of the Fire Phoenix Army, and this identity is widely known. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoBut where it came from in private, few people know. Thirty years ago, this person was taken in by Qin Kong, and he learned literature and martial arts, so he had the ability to do today. But thirty years ago, Nan Xiao was not called by that name. Prime Minister Lu, do you remember the name of the border pass Fengcheng garrison, Hua Nanyou?" Xia Qiu continued.

"Hua Nanyou, but that Hua Nanyou, who was greedy for 100,000 silver dollars, was sentenced to death by the lord of the country, and the whole family was exterminated?"

"It's this person. And you definitely don't know that Nan Xiao is the only surviving illegitimate son of the Hua family at that time!

Prime Minister Lu's eyes widened, and he could hardly believe what he was hearing. Nan Xiao is still a child who was taken in by Qin Kong! Doesn't this mean that Qin Kong has committed a big crime? Taking in the son of a criminal minister is not a trivial matter!

Nan Xiao naturally inherited Qin Kong's kindness, but he may not take the current lord of the country who killed his father and enemy in his eyes. Xia Qiu said eloquently, "This is a wolf with ambition, if it were not for Qin Kong's control, it might not be impossible for Nan Xiao to seize the authority of the Fire Phoenix Army with his martial arts skills." If Qin Kong is promoted to the king level and abdicates, what Nan Xiao will do after taking power is self-evident. Those who are not on the same path as the lord of the country are naturally our friends. ”

"The news of the little prince is really incredible!" Prime Minister Lu looked at Xia Qiu, cold sweat was about to come down, this continuous revelation, no big heart could not bear it.

"The so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is just that. Xia Qiu smiled, "It's not a big deal." ”

"However, Nan Xiao belongs to the distance, and water can't quench the thirst of the near. The Fire Phoenix Army is in place as a whole, and that is not a matter of a moment. Arrange the matter, come with the army, and then take over the military situation of the royal capital, which will not take three or four months, I am afraid it will be difficult to do. Prime Minister Lu shook his head, still a little unsure. "After waiting for three or four months, I am afraid that the new lord has already been decided, and the whole Xia Kingdom will spread throughout the country, and this righteous name will already be in the hands of others. ”

"Do you think that Nan Xiao will not know that the lord of the country is critically ill and will die soon?" Xia Qiu looked at Prime Minister Lu Cheng quite amusedly, feeling that this old businessman's mind was confused, "Or do you think that with Nan Xiao's wisdom, will he make targeted arrangements for this?"

"Among the rewarded troops of the Fire Phoenix Army this time, three people came, one was Qin Kong's daughter, Qin Yu. It's just a little girl, even if she is the team leader, except for playing prestige, I'm afraid she doesn't have the power to make decisions at all. ”

"There is another one, it is General Yu Chen, General Qin Kong accepted him in Bai, he is a diehard loyalist of Qin Kong, but he is a rigid person, a brave general, but he lacks resourcefulness, that is to say, this person has no ideas, and will only listen to the orders of the officials. ”

"Finally, it's this egret!" Xia Qiu smiled faintly, "This person's origin is unknown, and his personality is unknown. After checking it for so long, it was as if it had popped out of a crack in the stone. The force is a three-star lieutenant, but it is full of decisiveness. The battle of the grassland was all based on his plan. The entire steppe of 200,000 troops was annihilated in one fell swoop, and more than 40,000 people were captured. I'm afraid that this ability is unsurpassed in the three kingdoms. However, this person is from the Nan Xiao lineage!"

Xia Qiu took another sip of tea, "The reason why I judge it this way is actually very simple. Qin Kong retreated, and Nan Xiao sent this team. With Qin Yu as the leader, it is actually just a cover-up. The egret said that he was here to be rewarded, but I am afraid that his real purpose was to come to the royal capital to watch the situation. According to Nan Xiao's judgment, there is no successor on the side of the lord, and the future of the Xia Kingdom is uncertain, in order to reduce the unstable factors after he takes charge of the army in the future, he naturally wants to let the Huofeng Army defect to the side that is most likely to become the lord of the country. In other words, Bai Lu is the strategist who Nan Xiao arranged to come to the king to choose the master. ”

"If the gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, Nan Xiao doesn't want the Fire Phoenix Army he is about to get in his hands to be lost in the Xia domestic struggle in the future, so it is predictable to send Bai Lu to take refuge with the strongest side. Xia Qiu looked at Prime Minister Lu, "And that side of the force will be stronger than our Zhennan Wangfu and the side with the Luohe garrison?"

"I see!" Prime Minister Lu looked at Xia Qiu in amazement, and admired the inference of this little prince, obviously he was only a twenty-one-year-old young man, but his ability to see through the situation and judge the situation was not inferior to the veteran officials in the royal capital. There is a successor to the king of Zhennan, and the future of the Xia Kingdom is just around the corner!

"As long as the egret is not stupid. Of course, he was certainly not stupid. Xia Qiu said funny, "Then among the three kings, who can be relied on, he must be able to see." ”

"For such a strategist, no matter how high the reward of the lord of the kingdom is, these people are not uncommon. They can see the essence from the appearance, not the real benefits and positions with future expectations, and these people simply don't care. ”

"The lord of the country wants to use this to make the Fire Phoenix Army return to his heart? In the eyes of a wise man of this level, it is tantamount to a joke! That's why I said that the plan of the lord of the country is completely a failed plan. The biggest reason was that he didn't expect that the old general Qin Kong would be promoted to the king level in retreat. ”

"What the little prince said is right. Prime Minister Lu also smiled reassuringly now, "But there is still a doubt, everything that is said is based on the premise that the old general Qin Kong can successfully become a king, but if Qin Kong fails, then our preparations or predictions will not fall into the void?"

"You said it might have been possible before, but it's never going to happen now. Xia Qiu smiled proudly, "Three months ago, our Luohe garrison did a battle in the Chu State and won the thirty-mile forest area by the Luohe River. Not only that, but he also picked a small sect in the Chu State that was originally here, the Changhe Gang. ”

"This news is the first time I have talked to anyone today. The Changhe Gang is a small gang with few manpower, but it is a great gang in its history, and it can even be traced back to the previous generation of emperors. We've got a lot of good things from the secret vault in his gang, and one of them is the three Salary King Pills!"

Looking at Prime Minister Lu Cheng's unknown appearance, Xia Qiu laughed, "Speaking of which, this elixir is an ancient elixir, and even among cultivators, there are very few people who really know its value. However, I inherited the exercises from famous masters, and I know this miraculous elixir. This pill doesn't have any effect that is too against the sky, it's just that when a cultivator breaks through the king level at the peak of his self-general level, he can increase the success rate by thirty percent out of thin air!"

"What?!" Lu Chengxiang's face fused, "The success rate of promotion to the king level?!"

"Don't be too surprised, the promotion effect of the Flame Pill is only effective for the fire attribute martial soul. Xia Qiu shook his head, "There are very few people in this world who have cultivated the fire attribute to the peak of the general level. Unfortunately, the old general Qin Kong is one of them, long before I came here, I had already arranged for an entourage to send it to the old general Qin Kong. Qin Kong is only seventy years old, and within the rank of general, he is only middle-aged, supplemented by the Flame Pill, this success rate, I don't need to say more about it!"

The ancient elixir was given out in Xia Qiu without hesitation, just for the establishment of his own plans and ideas, such courage, such thinking. Even the thoughts of Nan Xiao and Bai Lu were speculated by him. Xia Qiu is enough to be called a hero, even if he is only twenty-one years old now!
