Just when the two sides were suspicious of each other, the Daxuan Mission was a little lazy, Xue Zhen and the three of them were all dressed at home, lying on the bamboo couch enjoying the breeze on the small lonely mountain, each with a table beside them, on which there were snacks and fresh fruits, and there was even a pot of good double steaming on the quartz table, which was sent by Huo Youjian at a glance.

"They've already started, and we can prepare too, what do you say, Xue Xiang?" Yan Lan said with a smile, his spirit was even better than when he first arrived at Xiaogu Mountain.

"Ling Jun is reasonable, the old man still enjoys such a day, comfortable, after returning to Chengdu this time, I will also learn from Ling Jun to live a few comfortable days." Xue Zhen responded with a smile, he found that Yan Lan was a very interesting person during this period of time, astronomy and geography, customs, military formation strategies, everything was known, but his low-key nature was really ignored.

Quartz also admired Yan Lan very much, and the only question that bothered him was why he surrendered without resistance back then, and with his ability, he could at least hold on for more than three years.

Yan Lan did not answer Quartz's question, but only said the words "conform to public opinion", and Quartz could only praise his generosity.

"Xue Xiang is in the third station, and he is the mainstay of Daxuan, I'm afraid there is no way to steal half a day." Yan Lan's answer was very connotative, he was actually reminding Xue Zhen that he was not the only prime minister in Santai.

Xue Zhen is a veteran of government affairs, and he is still willing to accept such kindness, and responds to Yanlan's fist.

Just when the three of them were about to get up and do business, the guards hurriedly came over to report: "Three adults, Jin Shuai died five days ago." ”

This is a big deal, the death of the first important person of the great minister since the founding of the Great Xuan Dynasty will definitely cause a shock in the army, although Jin Qian has not led troops for a long time, but he has a lot of old subordinates, and because Lu Ping has been suppressed badly over the years, I am afraid that there will be some commotion.

"Xue Xiang, as soon as possible, I'm afraid that after solving the matter here, we will have to transfer to Yeling." Yan Lan said meaningfully.

"General, when will the exchange of guards between Chai Sanghou and Chu Chao end?" Xue Zhenzou frowned and said with a serious expression.

"It's already going on, but there have always been brocade-clothed unicorns moving near the Four Lakes, and it's hard not to be detected for large-scale actions, so they can only be small-scale actions." Quartz didn't understand why Jin Qian's death would affect things here.

"Lingjun, I bother you to tell the people over there in Daning that a new round of negotiations will start tomorrow, and try to show that you are inclined to them, I hope you can get by." Xue Zhen's worries were already on his face.

Yan Lan, who has always been relaxed and comfortable, also seems very cramped now, "Xue Xiang, do your best to buy time for everyone, otherwise all plans will fall through." ”

Quartz was full of greetings, he couldn't guess what the two were talking about at all, as if he was an outsider, and endured until Xue Zhen left, then he asked, "Why does Jin Shuai's death affect our side?" Please answer. ”

Seeing Quartz's sincere face, Yan Lan found that the political game made Quartz have doubts, and he had to make it clearer, otherwise it would be a big problem to implement, "General, you should still remember the Tianshu Battalion back then, most of the old team of the Tianshu Battalion are now in Yeling or scattered in the Xingtan Army, Your Majesty has suppressed this group of people very much over the years, and there have been many people who have colluded with Ning and Chu Erchao in private, but because Jin Qian still doesn't dare, now Jin Shuai left too suddenly, Your Majesty originally wanted to completely solve these problems next year." , it seems that it is too late. ”

Quartz pondered for a while and said, "Even if Jin Shuai is gone, isn't Lu Ping still there?" ”

Yan Lan smiled, the martial artist's mind is indeed simple, if it is so easy to do, no one doubts Jin Qian's loyalty, but his thought back then caused many people to have strange thoughts, which is one of the reasons why His Majesty has refused to use him again for so many years.

"General, the old Tianshu Battalion in Yeling City now has more than 100,000 people, if they go south, how should we deal with ourselves?"

"To the south? Rong Gui? Do they dare? Quartz couldn't believe it.

"What would you not dare? We can conspire with the Chu Dynasty in private, can't the Chu Dynasty conspire with the Ning Dynasty? The temptation of Yeling is much better than that of Xizhou. Yan Lan said earnestly.

"Isn't it okay for Hu Shuai to sit in Xingtan?" Quartz still doesn't want to believe it.

"What if the conditions of the Chu Dynasty are favorable enough?" Yan Lan wanted to laugh a little, this quartz's mind was really simple and cute.

"So what Ling Jun means is that he must implement the agreement with the Chu Dynasty as soon as possible, and then rush to Yeling as soon as possible to stabilize the situation?" A pair of quartz who suddenly realized said.

Yan Lan stopped talking, got up and left, the people from the White Clothes Temple are estimated to have arrived, Jin Qian's matter may be the biggest variable this time, or it may be the beginning of Daxuan's greater strength, all this is unknown, it just depends on their respective means.

"Mr. Murong, are you interested in working together again?" In the dense forest north of Xiaogu Mountain, Xu Yu's gloomy voice sounded.

"Xu Yu, are you a personal vendetta or do you work for the country?" Murong Changfeng's tone was full of defensiveness.

"What does it matter? Whether it's a personal vendetta or a state affair, in short, you and I don't want those miscellaneous people in Chengdu to stand up, do we? I could hear that Xu Yu was full of hatred.

"Are you willing to let me take the Night Tomb for nothing? What conditions are said to be sincere, and the sincerity of cooperation is not seen below. Murong Changfeng actually didn't refuse.

Xu Yu is right, except for Xijing, which is the hardcore of Chengdu, other forces don't want to see Meng Yan and others become bigger and stronger, Daxuan's policy makes them more and more afraid, if Daxuan lives in the Central Plains, they will not have a good life, and in fact, whether it is the Ning Dynasty or the Chu Dynasty, they are all intentionally or unintentionally beginning to follow suit or refer to Daxuan's practices to change.

The night of Qinhuai River did make some of the families fall, but the new family also began to rise, they can't tolerate the untouchable people being officials in the same dynasty as them, this is an insult to them, Jin Qian's death is a good opportunity, as long as they rely on their own ability to change the existing pattern in one fell swoop, whether it is Xiao Yu or Zhong Roulan, they have to bow to these emerging nobles.

"Hahaha! Da Chu obtains the Night Tomb, as long as you cooperate with the sailors who completely annihilate Mengyan, let him not go into the water for five years! ”

"It's so ruthless!" Murong Changfeng gritted his teeth and said, his expression suddenly changed, and he smiled coldly: "But it's very much in line with my taste!" ”

Xu Yu took the initiative to stretch out his palm, and then Murong Changfeng swore with him without hesitation, and said, "Xu Yu, how long will it take for your people to capture the Four Lakes?" ”

"As long as you don't move the mouth of the lake, you can take the four lakes in one day at most, cut off the connection between Jiujiang and Jiangxia, and make them unable to take care of each other."

Murong Changfeng hesitated for a moment and said: "At most, I will give you one night, otherwise we will send troops to Sihu, you know, General Zhongqian's temperament is not so calm, if it weren't for the negotiation, he would have led his troops to Jiujiang a long time ago." ”

Murong Changfeng has been struggling whether to tell Xu Yu about the agreement they reached with Chengdu, think about it or forget it, whether the success of Yeling's matter will not affect their current relationship with Daxuan, and the time set with Huo Youjian is tomorrow afternoon, as long as Ning Chao takes the initiative to attack tonight, it will not be considered treacherous on his side.

After Xu Yu heard this, he frowned, this excuse did not convince him, and he began to doubt in his heart, but Xu Yu did not think that there would be any agreement between Chu and Xuan, and only gave them one night, probably not wanting to fall into the mouth of sabotaging the peace talks.

"It's not up to us to decide this, I'm going back to discuss it, and there will definitely be an explanation in the afternoon." Xu Yu didn't say anything to death, and left some affection for each other, no matter what problems arise in the future, there will be a step.

Just when Xu Yu and Murong Changfeng met, what was surprising on the other side of the mountain was that Yu Qingwu and Yan Lan were meeting.

"I understand what you said, I just want to ask why you?" Yu Qingwu was shocked when he knew that it was Yan Lan who asked him out, he thought that Daxuan would let Xue Zhen talk to him, after all, it was an old acquaintance.

"The general doesn't need to be tempted, Xue Xiang doesn't want to meet the old man, so I don't need to repeat the story between the marshal and the general, right?" What Yan Lan said is very simple, but it is indeed a real problem.

As for what the deep understanding looks like, that is Yu Qingwu's creation, Yan Lan deliberately leaked the matter of his secret appointment with Yu Qingwu to Song Jian, if there is collusion between the two parties, Duanmuyang will definitely be afraid of Qingwu, and if there is no collusion, it can also make the suspicious Xu Yu bury a thorn in his heart.

"In any case, I still have to thank Emperor Xuan, and the rest will be reported in the next life." Yu Qingwu cut off all the paths that Yan Lan wanted to surrender.

Yan Lan smiled slightly, and said with some disdain: "I will never act like a villain to Your Majesty, even ordinary people and soldiers will not take advantage of people's danger, General Yu, please go back, Yan has nothing to say." ”

Yu Qingwu was a little embarrassed, Yan Lan was right, he was indeed a villain, but because of his identity, he only bowed his hand slightly and said: "Yan Lingjun, you are losing your words, please go slowly!" ”

Yan Lan walked down the mountain with a resentful expression, but his eyes were scanning the shade of the trees around him, he believed that the brocade-clothed unicorn and the Luantai envoy were staring at him, so his performance was more obvious.

"Xiangye, did the general tell you?" Xu Yu frowned.

"The general asked my opinion before going out, what's wrong, does Yuhou think something is wrong?" Duanmuyang was a little curious.

Xu Yu shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I always feel that something is wrong, but I think they shouldn't have talked about it or it's not pleasant." ”

"What does Yuhou mean is that there are other problems between them?" Duanmuyang immediately heard Xu Yu's words.

"Xiangye, Jinyi Qilin only explores the possibility of doing things, as long as there is a possibility of harming the court and His Majesty, we will not give up easily, but Xiangye, you must not think so, you are the prime minister of the DPRK and China, you should focus on knowing and employing people, let's do such pickled things." Xu Yu suddenly said respectfully to Duanmu Yang.

Duanmuyang was a little stunned, Xu Yu's statement was sincere, but he didn't feel comfortable at all, but he had a feeling of "being nosy".

"Then it's troublesome for Yuhou to worry more, the old man doesn't want to have variables at a critical moment!" Duanmu Yang's tone also instantly raised a few tones.

It's hard for people to do, is hard to eat, and there are more people for right and wrong, not to mention that this is a competition between three forces, and whoever grits their teeth tightly.

Xu Yu walked out of Duanmuyang's room, looked at the busy appearance of the Xuan Dynasty mission on the slope of the hill, and said in his heart: "These people are so busy, they don't want to run away, right?" After that, he denied it again, how could it be possible, at this time they should be thinking about how to get more benefits and how to gain a firm foothold, after all, Su Qing, an old opponent, has also arrived, so he doesn't believe that Su Qing is here to train the water master.
