The report ——! got the exact news that Sima Fa had been recalled to Miliang, and Lu Yuan temporarily led a large army to guard the border!"

Upon learning of this, the Chinese Wu was overjoyed.

Ning Ze took the letter and took a closer look at it, and nodded slightly: "Very good! It seems that the intelligence officers on Miliang's side have successfully infiltrated Lu Cong's side, which is indeed good news for us!"

"Lord Wang!" Guo Shi stood up and said eagerly, "Sima Fa has been recalled, which is a great opportunity. Immediately send troops, break through Daliang County, and knock on the door of Mizhou!"

"That's right! As soon as Sima Fa left, he just took the opportunity to attack Mizhou!"

"I am willing to enter Mizhou with the prince and defeat the enemy army!"

......

Under the account, Wu was eager to try.

Ning Ze shook his head: "If it was before, it would be just a lonely intention!" It's just that Nancheng has a Yang Zhao, although Chu Guanglu repelled it and recaptured Loushan, it was only because the opponent's troops and materials were insufficient, and it was difficult to resist. In terms of military intelligence, Yang Zhao is unusual, Chu Guanglu is so cautious, and he has been designed by him many times, which is by no means simple! Although Sima Fa is gone, Lu Yuan, Lei He, Ping, and Zhou Hao are not ordinary people, and although they can win alone, it takes quite a lot of time. If the south comes out of the basket again, it will be very unfavorable. If Yang Zhao and Nancheng's army converge, the threat would be even greater! On the side of Liang Guo, Lone had other plans. ”

"What does the prince mean, ......?" Guo Shi looked up suspiciously.

"If our side sends troops to attack Daliang now, the situation that has been set up with great difficulty will fall short!" Ning Ze said, "As soon as Sima Fa leaves, the border will be attacked by our army and even lose the city, what will Lu Cong think? Recall Sima Fa and Mizhou is in trouble, and he clearly tells him that he has been tricked. If this is the case, he must rely more on Sima Fa, which is not a good thing, and on the other hand, if Sima Fa leaves, our army will immediately withdraw its troops, so that the border crisis will be resolved. He would suspect that Sima Fa deliberately created a border conflict just to further control the military power, and had other plans. Once there is a gap between Lu Cong and Sima Fa, no matter how powerful Sima Fa is, it will be useless. ”

Under the tent, you look at me, I look at you, and they all clenched their fists with admiration: "The prince is really clever!!"

"Guo Shi!"

"In!" Hearing Ning Ze call himself, Guo Shi hurriedly stepped forward.

"Lone wants to go south in person, you lead the team back to Yuanzhou, and stick to the pass at the border. Ning Ze ordered, "Under normal circumstances, the enemy army will not move. Just be careful just in case. If the enemy army makes any moves, hurry up and fly the pigeon to report to Lone!"

"Wow!" Guo Shi respectfully clenched his fists.

After the explanation, Ning Ze immediately ordered his troops to move south and moved in the direction of Jiangzhou.

Guo Shi led the Chinese soldiers and horses, stationed on the border of Yuanzhou, and the whole army retreated to the pass.

Knowing that the Chinese army had canceled the confrontation and returned to the Yuanzhou border pass, Lu Yuan summoned the generals to ask what the other party's intentions were.

Everyone speculated, but no one came up with the reason, so they could only order to strengthen their vigilance to prevent the other party from secretly displaying their positions.

The words are divided into two ends.

However, it was said that Sima Fa was edicted, rode a fast horse with a few entourages, and returned to Miliang, Yunzhou day and night.

After entering the city, he went straight to the palace to find Lu Cong: "The child meets his father!" The father and the emperor summoned, and the child set off in the starry night and returned to Miliang non-stop. ”

The corners of Lu Cong's mouth twitched, even though many years had passed, he still couldn't get used to it.

Sima Fa was older than himself, but he knelt in front of him and called himself a child, shouting one by one. Although as his son-in-law, there is really no problem with the title, but there is no way to get used to it!

But there was no way, so he could only stretch out his hand and make a false gesture: "No courtesy! Get up!"

"Father Xie!" Sima Fa stood up, his eyes fell on Qiu Yan, the little eunuch beside Lu Cong, thoughtfully.

Qiu Yan was swept by Sima Fa's gaze, only to feel a chill all over his body, and subconsciously avoided his eyes.

Lu Cong was still very satisfied with Sima Fa's obedient transfer of military power and quickly rushed back to Miliang: "Since you set out on the expedition, Xi'er has missed it a lot. Over the years, for the sake of Liang State, you have fought everywhere, and it has been quite hard. Come back this time to have a good rest and spend more time with Xi'er at home. You have been together for so many years and have no children, just because you are away all the year round and have little time to spend with Xi'er. Have a good rest during this time!"

Sima Faxin said, I'm this age, of course I can't be compared with young people. How can it be so easy to get your wife pregnant? Although you know that this is an excuse, you don't care whether our husband and wife have children at all, and you don't even think it's better, and when I die of old age or die in battle, your daughter can marry a younger one at a young age, and having children is a burden. However, it is indeed a great pity to have no heirs, and since you have been recalled, when you are relieved of your suspicions, you should also try to have a child.

So he replied respectfully: "What my father taught me is that the child is going back to the house here!"

"Hmm!" Lu Cong waved his hand and motioned for Sima Fa to step back.

Sima Fa knew that he couldn't be in a hurry if he wanted to dispel Lu Cong's suspicions. If you tell Lu Cong as soon as you come back, the reason why you summoned me back is because someone around you offered slander and asked to deal with that person, which only increased your suspicion.

Lu Cong will definitely think: Okay! Before you came back, you knew that someone was offering slander in my ear, and just now you were staring at Qiu Yan, are there people from you in the army and the imperial city, who are helping you keep an eye on me?

At that time, the situation was even worse, which made Lu Cong's suspicions even worse.

Returning home in this way made Lu Cong feel a little relieved.

After Sima Fa left, Lu Cong looked at his back and thought for a long time, then turned his head and asked Qiu Yan: "The Governor of the Metropolitan has handed over the military power and rushed back to Miliang quickly, is it loyal enough?"

Qiu Yan's eyes rolled around, and he lowered his head and replied: "The temple people don't dare to talk about the minister!"

Lu Cong glanced at him: "If I want you to say it, you will say it!"

"This ......," Qiu Yan replied in a low voice, "Your Majesty! The people of the temple heard that many ministers were waiting near the city gate this morning to welcome the governor back to the city, I don't know if it's true or not......

Lu Congwen frowned: "The answer is not what you asked, palm mouth!"

Qiu Yan immediately stretched out his hand and slapped himself hard with a bow left and right, making a loud sound, and his cheeks on both sides were red, all palm prints.

Seeing that he had beaten more than a dozen, Lu Cong said, "Okay! Do you know what is wrong?"

"The temple people know their mistakes!" Qiu Yan replied respectfully.

"Then tell me, is the Metropolitan Governor loyal enough?" Lu Cong asked him with squinted eyes.

Qiu Yan hurriedly replied: "The Metropolitan Governor is indeed loyal!"

"Hmm~" Lu Cong nodded and stopped continuing the topic.

It's just what he thinks in his heart, and no one else can know.

The next day, there was an urgent news of the military situation, saying that Sima Fa had left Mizhou, and Ning Ze led his troops back to Yuan County, and the border confrontation disappeared.

Qiu Yan said in Lu Cong's ear: "Ning Ze's behavior is really weird, most of the governors returned with edicts, and he also withdrew!"

Lu Cong's brows furrowed, and he thought carefully.

Although Qiu Yan was talking about Ning Ze, these words were in Lu Cong's ears, and he paid attention to the three words of Dadu Governor.

It stands to reason that Sima Fa was urgently recalled, and the border situation must be biased in favor of Huaguo, and under normal circumstances, Ning Ze should seize the opportunity. Sima Fa left, and Lu Yuan and the others had to block Ning Ze.

Why did Ning Ze give up such a good opportunity, and after Sima Fa left, he gave up the advantage and evacuated decisively?

He couldn't have a secret agreement with Sima Fa...... Impossible! So what the hell is going on?

Lu Cong couldn't figure it out, he only felt that Sima Fa's departure from the border and Ning Ze's sudden withdrawal of troops must be related. Because no matter how you think about it, there is no reason to withdraw troops when you have an advantage.

For the next few days, Sima Fa stayed at home with his wife, apparently following Lu Cong's orders.

After receiving the report, Lu Cong thought about it carefully, and Sima Fa seemed to use his actions to show that he had no dissent.

During this time, I didn't meet any officials in the DPRK and China at home, but on the day I returned to the city, some officials and generals who had a good relationship with Sima Fa went over to pick up people, which was actually not surprising.

The lively situation on the border suddenly disappeared, the Chinese army did not appear again, and with the departure of Sima Fa, the smoke of gunpowder was lost.

What the hell is going on? Lu Cong couldn't figure it out.

The more I don't understand, the more doubts I have.

Sima Fa actually knew that it was Qiu Yan who slandered Lu Cong's ear, so he had today's situation. He has a very high prestige in Liang State, and he has eyes and ears everywhere, and it is of course clear who has changed around Lu Cong, and what he said to him.

It's just that he can't say it clearly, if he tells Lu Cong, I know why you suddenly came back, because Qiu Yan told you bad things about me, and I know everything he said!

That's it!

Lu Cong was already a little suspicious, but saying this made him even more suspicious: What? Every move on my side is under your control? That is to say, as the emperor, I am actually your person next to me? Even the people around me listen to you, so when do you want to change me, and be the emperor yourself, isn't it easy?

If that were to be the case, it would be worse and more troublesome.

Therefore, even if Sima Fa knew everything, he couldn't say it on the surface.

With his identity, it was easy to deal with a small eunuch.

However, this little eunuch was taken by Lu Cong's side, and he wanted to get rid of him silently without being suspected, this is a technical job!

The most important thing is that when he is being suspected by Lu Cong right now, it is because of this little eunuch. No matter what happens to him, Lu Cong must think of himself for the first time, and if he wants to be completely uninvolved, he still has to be cautious and cautious.

The situation on the other side of the border, Sima Fa also received the news.

Knowing that Ning Ze withdrew from the army immediately after he was recalled, and never set foot in Mizhou again, he was quite puzzled at first, but after thinking about it for a night, he understood that the kid did it on purpose, the more this is the case, the easier it is for Lu Cong to be confused, and the easier it is for him to be involved in this strange thing, even if it has nothing to do with it.

At this critical moment, anything you do may have the opposite effect, and if you want to relieve Lu Cong's suspicions, it is best to do nothing. In this way, anyone and any move will be defused. Wait until Lu Cong's suspicions disappear, and then come out to deal with these troubles, and then you can settle it in one fell swoop!
