Chapter 263: Analysis
Seeing Xu Chengkang die, the lobby suddenly became quiet.
Everyone's eyes unconsciously swept to Li Yuan above.
"Check it out!"
Li Yuan ordered, when it came to this atmosphere, it would be impossible to talk about it if he didn't investigate.
"Yes!"
Song Lan stood up and answered, Xu Longhai and Xu Ze'an's eyes darkened, and they almost fell to the ground.
Li Yuan looked at them calmly, if the Xu family didn't do anything wrong, they wouldn't be afraid to investigate, but looking at their current situation, Xu Chengkang's words were seven points true.
After Li Yuan withdrew from the church, the surrounding people instantly erupted into heated discussions.
The Xu family, as a big family in the capital, broke out such a scandal and was also on the investigation list, which is enough to detonate the major events in the capital.
For a time, the entire capital city was in an uproar.
And Li Yuan was invited to the Song family at this time and came to the Song family as a guest.
Although the affairs of the Xu family shook the capital city, it was not a big deal in Li Yuan's eyes, and the people below would give him a satisfactory explanation.
In the main hall of the Song family's hall, a table of delicious dishes has been prepared.
When Li Yuanzheng accepted Song Kong's warm hospitality, in addition to Song Kong, there was also an old man who accompanied him, this person was the second Venerable of the Song family, the second ancestor of the Song family, and Song Yaoyang in the later stage of the Dharma Venerable Realm.
After Li Yuan and Song Yaoyang said hello, a gentle woman arrived.
"The little woman Song Yuyun greets His Royal Highness the King of Chu!"
Song Yuyun bowed slightly, her voice was as beautiful as Juanjuan spring water, refreshing, and made people feel a sweet feeling in the hot summer.
Li Yuan looked back, and a hibiscus face appeared in front of him, his cheeks were flushed, his starry eyes were like waves, and there was pity and shyness in his eyes......
"Your Highness, this is your subordinate little daughter Song Yuyun, who admires His Highness a lot, and often has to argue to see His Highness, and today I finally have a chance." Song Kong next to him said with a smile, his eyes staring at Li Yuan's every move, and he was a little nervous in his heart.
Xu Fengwu, the daughter of Xu Mad and Liu Yanxin, the daughter of Liu Qingquan, the lord of the two major forces, let his daughter establish an intimate relationship with the King of Chu, how could he Song Kong lag behind.
"Miss Song, please get up."
For women, a beauty, a big beauty, Li Yuan has always been polite.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Song Yuyun met Li Yuan's gentle eyes, nodded quite shyly, and got up very smoothly and poured a glass of wine for Li Yuan, Song Kong, and Song Yaoyang, and the hall was filled with the fragrance of wine!
"Thank you, Your Highness, for visiting my Song family, it's a great honor for your subordinates." Song Kong and Song Yaoyang got up at the same time and raised their glasses very enthusiastically to Li Yuan.
"In the future, I need the Song family to help this king more!" Li Yuan raised his glass in return and looked at the two with a smile.
"The Song family swears to follow His Royal Highness the King of Chu to the death!"
Song Kong's tone was firm, so that anyone could see his sincerity, and Song Yaoyang also nodded seriously.
"Okay, this king will never treat the Song family badly!" Li Yuan's face was full of sincerity.
"Your Highness, please!"
"Please, two of you!"
Then the three of them drank it all and began to pick up the dishes, and began to have a chat mode, in which Song Yuyun adjusted the atmosphere, causing everyone to laugh from time to time.
After three rounds of drinking, outside the door of the Song family's mansion, after Song Kong and Song Yaoyang enthusiastically sent Li Yuan away, the two glanced at each other, and they both showed a hint of relief.
Back in the hall, seeing Song Yuyun waiting for him, Song Kong looked at his beloved daughter who was as gentle as jade, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became.
"Yuyun, what do you think of His Royal Highness the King of Chu?"
Song Yuyun's smile was like a flower, and her jade voice was tactful: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu is naturally very good, but I want to know the situation of Xu Fengwu, Liu Yanxin and Nangong Xiyue now." ”
Song Yuyun's eyes were shining, and under his soft face, he was more shrewd than the world imagined.
For them, the ladies of the family, men compete for the world, and women compete for men!
The women's war is about to begin!
………………
"Your Highness, Toyosu is going to be a big battle!"
As soon as he entered the palace, Jia Xu rushed to Fengzhou with information.
Li Yuan's eyes moved slightly, took Jia Xu's information and sat back in his chair, reading it carefully.
The situation of King Ming is now the existence that Li Yuan needs the most attention.
King Ming solved the Toyoshu Alliance, and then it was time for him to face King Ming head-on.
A month ago, King Ming had already led a large army to suppress the Fengzhou Alliance to the frontier mansion, Fengyan Mansion.
There are a total of 700,000 troops on the left and right sides of the Ming army, nine venerables, and more than 30 strong people in the Tianwu Realm.
This month, the king of Ming still maintained the situation of onslaught, the land of the eight counties of Fengyan Mansion has been collected seven counties, and the Fengzhou Alliance has been defeated all the way, and now there are only 370,000 remnants of the army, six venerables, more than 20 Tianwu Realm are defending in Fengjiang County, and all the troops of the Fengzhou Alliance are all shrinking in the last county.
Now that King Ming is ready, the army will attack Fengjiang County in an all-round way, preparing for the final battle and taking the entire Fengzhou Alliance.
"Wenhe, how sure do you think King Ming is this time to completely solve the Fengzhou Alliance?"
Li Yuan put his hands behind his back and let the letters flutter behind him.
"I'm afraid I'm 100% sure!" Jia Xu affirmed.
"The Fengzhou Alliance has always been the strongest state among the four states, and there were a total of fourteen Venerables before, and the existence of a million armies has now been wiped out by King Ming, and the rest of these people are only dying."
"Now that the Ming army has cornered the Fengzhou Alliance, and it is going to attack and take it, King Ming is not afraid that he will lose too much after solving the Fengzhou Alliance?" Li Yuan looked at the information in his hand, and couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, what did King Ming plan to do?
Now that the Toyosu Alliance has reached a desperate situation, if it follows the normal process, besiege but not attack, and use rumors to break the hearts of the Toyosu Alliance army, slowly try to persuade it to surrender, it is the best policy.
After all, now that there is only the last county left in the Fengzhou Alliance, King Ming wants to attack the Fengzhou Alliance, what is the picture?
In a hurry?
It shouldn't be, now there is only one county left in the entire Toyosu, everything that should be taken has been taken, and the rest of the places have been controlled, and it is not bad for this last county, and it is not too late to solve the Toyoshu Alliance after controlling Toyozhou.
Does King Ming have other ideas?
Forced the Fengzhou Alliance directly out of the Dayu Dynasty?
But it's not like it.
For the strong enemy of King Ming, Li Yuan cannot be sloppy.
Jia Xu pondered for a while, and then said: "Ruochen guessed correctly, there is still an internal response belonging to King Ming in the Fengzhou Alliance!" ”
"If King Ming has an internal response, the Fengzhou Alliance should be able to persuade it to surrender, or destroy it early, but King Ming has forced the Fengzhou Alliance to retreat to the last county, what is King Ming waiting for?"
"And what is the Toyosu Alliance waiting for?"
Li Yuan's doubts about the battle situation in Fengzhou deepened.
Now that Huanzhou has been taken by itself, the Fengzhou Alliance has no allies, and the stalemate is nothing more than three outcomes.
One is to surrender and keep the last flame of the family.
The second is to escape from the Yu Dynasty and go away from the frontier.
The third is to fight to the death and retain the last dignity of the family.
Since King Ming still has an internal response, the war should not be left until now, it should have already been resolved, why bother to force the Fengzhou Alliance to a desperate situation before making a move.
When a force is cornered, the combat power that erupts will be terrifying.
And the time is wasted again, and it doesn't look like it's in a hurry to solve the Fengzhou Alliance, but now it's attacking again, what is King Ming going to do?
"Your Highness, do you remember that Weichen once said that the assassin who assassinated His Highness may not have come to the Dayu Dynasty, and it is likely to come from outside the court!" Jia Xu suddenly said something irrelevant.
Li Yuan's heart moved slightly, and he looked at Jia Xu with a serious face, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly understood what Jia Xu meant.
Assassins, outward forces!
Toyoshu, the border!
King Ming!
After frantically thinking about the key in his mind, the fog in Li Yuan's heart gradually opened, and a gloomy expression appeared in his eyes:
"Wenhe, you're saying that if that assassin is from a foreign force, then their real target is likely to be in Fengzhou?"
"That's right, their real target now should be King Ming." Jia Xu nodded heavily: "If it is really done by foreign forces, they should first want to solve His Highness, so that Huanzhou and Lingzhou will fall into chaos."
In this way, King Ming can relax his vigilance, and secondly, it can also attract the attention of the forces of the Dayu Dynasty to Huanzhou.
At this time, if they suddenly solve the Ming King, in the case that the forces of the Dayu Dynasty have no time to react, they will lead the army into the Dayu Dynasty!
The king of Chu was assassinated, and the king of Ming was lost again, and the four major states of Feng, Yi, Huan, and Ling were simply borderless, and foreign forces could drive straight in. ”
"For them, the key battle to enter the border of the Dayu Dynasty is in Fengzhou!" Jia Xu's eyes flashed, and the jade fan waved his fingers heavily!
"In this way, the Toyosu Alliance has colluded with foreign forces!" When Li Yuan heard Jia Xu's analysis, he had a feeling of clearing the clouds.
Immediately, Li Yuan's eyes opened, and he thought of something again, and said in shock: "In this way, King Ming even knows that the Fengzhou Alliance has colluded with foreign forces, and then set up an ambush!" ”
Jia Xu nodded and said: "If King Ming knows that outside the border of Fengzhou, there are enemies eyeing him, he will naturally have to solve the trouble." ”
Li Yuan showed a faint murderous intent at this time: "Beyond the border of Fengzhou is the Rihui Dynasty!" ”
"The Rihui Dynasty has always been a wolf's ambition, if there is a chance to bite the Dayu Dynasty, they will never let go of this opportunity!"
Jia Xu calmly analyzed: "Some time ago, the dynasty competition, under the operation of the imperial court, made the Rihui Dynasty and the Southern Ming Dynasty hate each other, and the armies of the two dynasties have been encamped on the border of the dynasty, and the war is about to break out, as if everything is under our control." ”
Li Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly: "If the two dynasties have secretly joined forces, the battle of the army is to cover up people's eyes and ears, and let us all relax our vigilance, in order to prepare to invade the Dayu Dynasty!" ”
"So the Fengzhou Alliance should be connected to these two dynasties!"
Jia Xu nodded: "If King Ming still has Neiying, he should already know by now that these two dynasties are preparing to sneak attack and enter Fengzhou!" ”
"However, there is still a problem with this king, the assassin who assassinated this king is not something that these two dynasties can send." Li Yuan thought of something again, and the killing intent in his heart was even deeper!
"And the dynasty has intervened!" Li Yuan's tone aggravated.
"Xuanwu Dynasty, Fengyu Dynasty!" Jia Xu bowed his head and silently recited the names of these two dynasties.
"Wenhe, do you think King Ming knows if there is a shadow of the dynasty behind the Fengzhou Alliance and the two major dynasties?" Li Yuan asked.
Jia Xu's eyes flashed, but his tone was flat:
"King Ming's strategists are like rain, so he can naturally guess the existence of the dynasty behind him."
"In that case, why didn't King Ming contact this king, or did he have the strength to solve this matter?" Li Yuan's brows furrowed, revealing a suspicious look.
If the direction of his and Jia Xu's analysis is correct, the Fengzhou Alliance is now a big situation, and with the other two major dynasties intervening, the strength of King Ming may not be able to withstand it.
This kind of incident about the enemy dynasty of the Dayu Dynasty, King Ming should not be able to support it, and he can find an ally to kill this group of invaders together.
"This ......, maybe King Ming has other means, after all, King Ming still has reinforcements from the state." Jia Xu saw that Li Yuan had thought about this aspect so quickly, and sighed a little lightly.
Li Yuan frowned and thought about it, and finally nodded. Indeed, King Ming's means are extraordinary, but Ji Wushuang, the general of Yizhou, has not moved.
But Li Yuan thought about it, and for some reason there was always an uneasiness in his heart, but he didn't know where the uneasiness came from, so he said:
"Wenhe, this king plans to let Lu Bu lead his troops to the border from Huanzhou to Fengzhou.
First, it can be just in case, in case something goes wrong on the side of the king, we can also prevent it in time.
Second, no matter when King Ming takes Fengzhou, our relationship with King Ming will be very complicated, and we can rest assured that we can send Lu Bu to sit on the border. ”
When Jia Xu heard this, a ray of light flashed under his deep eyes, but his face showed embarrassment:
"Your Highness, the minister thinks it's inappropriate."
"What's the explanation?"
"When we took Huanzhou, King Ming took the initiative to let Ji Wushuang withdraw from the border of Huanzhou, saying that he would not attack Huanzhou, so that we could rest completely assured."
"Now that King Ming is about to solve the last enemy army, we have sent a large army to the border, which is easy to cause misunderstanding by King Ming."
Jia Xu saw that Li Yuan's frowning brows had not relaxed, and he couldn't help laughing:
"Your Highness, since King Ming already knows the plan of the Fengzhou Alliance, it is impossible for him to lose. With the arrogant nature of King Ming, even if he knew that there was a dynasty interfering behind him, he might not be afraid of them. ”
"Therefore, the minister thinks that we can prepare in Huanzhou and wait and see what happens."
Li Yuan heard this, and finally let go of the uneasiness in his heart.
Indeed, according to the character of King Ming, knowing that there is a strong enemy, he will not give up his face to ask others for help.
"Okay, Wenhe, let's always pay attention to the situation in Fengzhou."
"Understood, the minister retreated!"
………………
When Jia Xu returned to his mansion, a tall scribe walked slowly with a fan.
"Jia Wenhe, I heard that Fengzhou is going to be a decisive battle."
Cheng Yu, the great strategist summoned by Li Yuan before, has nothing important now, so Li Yuan asked him to follow him around and familiarize himself with the power of the Chu Palace.
"Zhongde, it's so late tonight, and so Yaxing is coming to me?"
There was a hint of curiosity in Jia Xu's eyes.
"You came out early, and you have made great contributions to His Highness one by one, if I don't work hard, how can I get His Highness's appreciation?" Cheng Yu shook the jade fan and said without concealment.
"So you're here for Toyosu?" Jia Xu understood Cheng Yu's thoughts in an instant.
"Of course, for Fengzhou, I believe that Wenhe already has seven or eight ideas." Cheng Yu looked at Jia Xu meaningfully and said:
"I don't know if Wen He has mentioned His Royal Highness, what if the Fengzhou Alliance also guesses that they have the internal response of King Ming in the Fengzhou Alliance?"
