Chapter 173 The situation suddenly rises in Kyushu 8
After Emperor Sima Yu summoned him, and after determining the general direction, he handed over the specific matters to Wang Dun to handle.
But when everyone saw Emperor Sima Yu's attitude, they knew that he was not very satisfied with this method of handling the matter.
Especially the battle situation on the front line also made him dissatisfied.
It was not easy to please the emperor. However, after Sima Yu succeeded to the throne, the situation in the world became increasingly corrupt, which was not unrelated to Sima Yu's radical approach.
only...
The Langya Wang family is now jealous of Sima Yu, and such advice is no longer something they can say.
After leaving Tai Chi Hall, Wang Yan immediately found Wang Dun.
"Zhu Zhong, you must be careful when dealing with this matter. Your Majesty is angry at this time. The war situation in Yuzhou is at a stalemate, and the world is showing a trend of instability. We need to be calm and stable now, and not be radical.
Well, it has caught people's attention. We, the Wang family of Langya, are now considered a force in the court. Originally, we were still restrained by Marquis Guangyuan. Now after Marquis Guangyuan left, he brought up Yang Xuanzhi again. Although this Yang Xuanzhi
It's much worse than Marquis Guangyuan, but His Majesty... still doesn't want us to grow bigger. Perhaps, this is his way of being an emperor."
Wang Yan sighed in his heart.
Before, he thought that Marquis Guangyuan was his enemy, but now he finally understood.
There is no conflict of interest between Marquis Guangyuan and him.
As long as he sides with His Majesty, the two of them will have to fight.
When Marquis Guangyuan leaves, Yang Xuanzhi will come. After Yang Xuanzhi leaves, others will definitely come.
"Of course I understand this matter, but I, the Langya Wang Clan, do not manipulate things at will. Now that the situation is turbulent, it is even less possible for Your Majesty to attack us, the Langya Wang Clan. Your Majesty will have more things to rely on us.
"
Wang Yan nodded slightly, indicating that he recognized Wang Dun's words.
"Although we seldom move around the palace, we still need to send things that need to be sent. The Queen needs the support of our family."
Now that Yang Xianrong is favored, although the queen is still the queen, her limelight must have been overshadowed by that sheep Xianrong.
Although Wang Yan knew that this was Sima Yu's calculation, in the harem, members of his Langya Wang family could not be bullied by others.
"Of course I understand this."
Wang Yan nodded slightly.
"As long as you understand, if Yang Xianrong gives birth to a prince, I'm afraid there will be a good show."
After Jiang Guiren lost power, he was in the cold palace and almost did not know whether he would live or die.
Although her two sons are not young anymore.
But with the way Yang Xianrong is favored now, and the fact that Sima Yu is young, others will inevitably have other ideas.
"If a prince is born, it will be even more difficult because I am afraid of the queen's situation in the palace."
Wang Dun nodded lightly.
"This Yang Xianrong has Yang Xuanzhi behind her, but speaking of it, Yang Xuanzhi was also helped up by His Majesty. The real backstage of Yang Beauty is probably related to Marquis Guangyuan."
Wang Yan's eyes flickered and he said: "The Marquis of Guangyuan has now been demoted to work in the fields. Beauty Sheep may also be someone we can cooperate with."
Wang Dun and Wang Yan looked at each other, then thought about it, shook their heads, and nodded again.
Although the possibility is unlikely, it may not be impossible to get in touch.
....
At this time, Yang Xianrong was half-lying in Yang Xianrong's bedroom. Her belly was already quite large.
"Palace Master, this is a letter sent by Marquis Guangyuan. Also, Marquis Guangyuan sent many treasures and many pleasing objects from Hedong County and Hongnong County. Now, Palace Master
There is no need to think of ways to please His Majesty."
Marquis Guangyuan?
Yang Xianrong's eyes lit up.
When she heard this name now, she had mixed feelings.
It's both expectation and disgust.
It always felt like she was like a marionette, tightly controlled by Marquis Guangyuan.
This guy had even calculated in advance that her father, Yang Xuanzhi, would be reused by His Majesty.
How could she, a weak woman, be a match for such a person?
Fortunately, the relationship between the two of them is just to use each other.
Marquis Guangyuan not only had many ideas, but also many tricks to please others. He also kept delivering treasures and gadgets to her, making her life very comfortable in the palace.
and...
Only then can she become the beauty second only to the queen.
The last person who opposed Marquis Guangyuan is now in the cold palace, not knowing whether he is alive or dead.
Mr. Jiang has a prince at his knees and has been in love with His Majesty for many years. Even so, what qualifications does she, Yang Xianrong, have to go against him?
Especially after Yang Xianrong became pregnant, this temperament gradually settled down.
Before, she was one person, but now she is considered two people.
Even if you don't plan for yourself, you still have to plan for the unborn child in your arms.
After briefly reading the letter from Marquis Guangyuan, Jiang Guiren was slightly surprised.
"The King of Hejian is actually so bold, and he still wants me to support him in his dream?"
Yang Xianrong thought for a moment and was shocked by Marquis Guangyuan's plan.
This guy...is a little bolder.
But when she thought about it again, she lightly shook her lips, and she already agreed in her heart.
If the child in her belly is a prince, then if she wants to compete with other princes, she needs to have capital.
Although she is favored by Sima Yu now, there will always be times when someone becomes old and slender. When the time comes, who will fight for her?
In terms of background, she is incomparable to the Queen.
Although the queen is not pregnant yet.
but...
What if there is one?
Yang Xianrong has always been a person who thinks far ahead.
"I will reply to Marquis Guangyuan and I will do what he said."
In any case, a capable Marquis Guangyuan is much better than his father.
If she wants to compete with the queen, the people outside the palace cannot be much weaker than the Langya Wang family, and for those who meet this condition, it seems that Marquis Guangyuan is the only choice.
.......
The war situation in Yuzhou is still sluggish, but on the front line of the battle with King Qi, the war situation has begun to become fierce.
Shaoling was fine, Zhang Guang was struggling to support himself in Lin County, and the Huainan King's personal guards were not having an easy time in Xihua County.
In the face of an absolute advantage, as long as the opponent plays steadily, you will have no chance at all.
This is true no matter how elite you are at your hands.
In Hongnong County, as early as five days ago, Wang Sheng began to prepare to deal with Zhang Fang who came from Chang'an.
Now the enemy is overt and we are in the dark.
Especially when Zhang Fangcun is in chaos, there is too much room for maneuver.
He has 10,000 horses in Hongnong County, and 10,000 more state and county soldiers that can be used. Altogether, there are 20,000.
This number seems to be 10,000 less than Zhang Fang's 30,000 troops, but as long as operations are done properly, the gap of 10,000 can be easily made up.
Not to mention, Wang Sheng also has a magic weapon like explosives at his disposal. If used properly, the entire army can be defeated.
It may take several days to capture tens of thousands of pigs, but it may not take two days to kill defeated soldiers and capture those who surrender.
After all, if the pigs are defeated, it will be a disaster, but if a person is defeated, it may become an institutional surrender.
The dense cloud of war is already hanging over Tongguan.
At the same time, Wang Sheng was also paying attention to the news about Zhang Fang in Chang'an.
Five days later, Zhang Fang set out from the Lantian Camp outside Chang'an City. He marched at a moderate speed and arrived at Xinfeng County in one day's march.
It was in Xinfeng County that Zhang Fang received a letter from Princess Ruyang.
The person who sent the letter brought an envoy from the King of Qi, as well as a token, and a blood letter from Princess Ruyang, which made it difficult for anyone to doubt it.
Especially after seeing the contents of Princess Ruyang's blood letter, Zhang Fang's eyes began to spit fire.
"Damn it, Marquis Guangyuan. If you dare to steal Zhang Fang's woman, you should be damned! Damn it!"
Zhang Fang's eyes were red, and now he wanted to fly to Hongnong County and eat Wang alive.
"The princess is in jail and has been insulted by the thieves. Send an order and the whole army will march day and night to reach Tongguan in two days."
Tongguan guard general Yu Hua had paid homage to the King of Hejian before, and he could be said to be a subordinate of the King of Hejian.
He was able to achieve the position of guard general of Tongguan thanks to the help and support from Hejian King Sima Yong in many aspects.
only...
This time, after all, he couldn't stand on the side of King Hejian.
After all, Marquis Guangyuan's sword is now on his neck.
"I know that you have some relationship with the King of Hejian, but if you want to help the tyrants, I don't mind taking your head to sacrifice the flag."
Tongguan Guard General Yu Hua swallowed secretly. He had heard of Marquis Guangyuan's name.
Speaking of him being a mere guard of Tongguan, it is estimated that His Majesty in Luoyang will not hold him accountable for his crimes.
"Your Majesty...Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely obey your orders."
He has not yet secured his position as the guard of Tongguan, and this concubine of Xina has not warmed her bed a few times. It would be a pity if she died because of this.
Besides, he has an old man and a young man, so he can't just leave him here.
"It's good that you have this kind of consciousness."
This Yu Hua sells decisively.
Those who are aware of current affairs are regarded as heroes, which is naturally worthy of praise. Of course, from another perspective, it can also be said that they are ungrateful.
If he didn't have the King of Hejian to move around for him, he wouldn't be able to get his current position. Now that he was threatened, he could turn around and sell the King of Hejian.
It can be said that he is a ruthless and ungrateful person.
It's not that Wang Sheng looks down on Yu Hua, it's just that such a person may turn to the King of Hejian when the situation goes wrong.
After all, it is impossible for such a wallflower to have a strong backbone.
"I also told you first, King Hejian has now plotted rebellion and tried to collude with King Qi. I know that you have some relationship with King Qi, and he also has some kindness towards you. However, you understand that you are loyal to the king and serve the country.
You understand that the loyal king is His Majesty of Luoyang, not the King of Hejian in Chang'an."
After threats, justice comes.
Treason?
Yu Hua was stunned for a moment. Although he was a little surprised, he didn't feel very strange.
The King of Hejian maintains his own troops in Chang'an. It is indeed not unimaginable that he is plotting rebellion.
"What do you want me to do?" Yu Hua's eyes flickered and he lowered his head and asked.
"Have the envoys of the King of Hejian come to see you before? If you don't tell me these things, do you think you also want to plot rebellion? This rebellion is a serious crime against the three clans!"
Gulu~
How did Marquis Guangyuan know that the King of Hejian had sent people to look for him?
All of a sudden, cold sweat started to flow from Yu Hua's forehead.
"Your Majesty, spare your life. It's not that I didn't say it, but that I just forgot about it."
Yu Hua quickly knelt down and lowered his head.
"forgotten."
If Wang Sheng believed this boy, he would be a fool.
"Lord, I think this person is not worthy of trust. Otherwise, I will kill him and find another person to act as this person."
Shi Le looked down on Yu Hua from the sidelines.
And what he said made Yu Hua almost pee his pants.
"Your Majesty, spare your life and cooperate with Your Majesty. The villain will definitely do his best, and... the King of Hejian only recognizes villains. Even if Your Majesty kills me, I will not be able to hide it from them."
By now, Yu Hua also knew why Marquis Guangyuan came.
only...
Why does Marquis Guangyuan know so many things?
Whether it was the messenger sent by the King of Hejian or the rebellion between the King of Hejian and the King of Qi...
He seemed to know everything.
Insider...
Is there a mole on the King's side?
"Zhang Fang leads 30,000 troops and will arrive at Tongguan soon. You will welcome Zhang Fang in then."
Will Zhang Fang be welcomed in?
Is this going to kill Zhang Fang directly?
Gulu~
Yu Hua swallowed again, the sweat on his forehead dropped like water, and his eyes began to wander.
If he opens the city gate and kills Zhang Fang, the King of Hejian will definitely not let him go, nor will he let Yu Hua and his family go.
Yu Hua experienced a battle between heaven and man in his eyes.
Bang bang bang~
He kowtowed directly to Wang Sheng.
"Your Majesty, please leave a way for the villain to survive. If I lead Zhang Fang into the city and kill him, the King of Hejian will not let the villain go. There is an eighty-year-old mother on top of the villain and a baby waiting to be fed below. How can I survive?"
Please open your eyes and let me live!"
"Let you live?"
Wang Sheng snorted coldly, and his eyes became dangerous.
"Could it be that if King Qi can harm your family, I, the Marquis of Guangyuan, can't?"
Wang Sheng's threat made Yu Hua's heart almost stop beating.
"But you don't have to worry. If this happens, I will write to Your Majesty to explain your merits. In Luoyang, even the King of Hejian will not be arrogant. Besides... if Zhang Fang dies, the King of Hejian will
The matter of treason is already a certainty. At that time, do you still think King Hejian still cares about your affairs?"
Carrot and stick...
Suddenly, Yu Hua's eyes began to become cloudy and uncertain.
but...
In any case, what Marquis Guangyuan said makes sense.
certainly...
He has no choice now.
"Yu Hua understands."
"I like smart people, but I don't like people who think they are smart. Your family has been taken to Hongnong by me. Whether you are rich or your family's life is in danger depends on how you behave in the future."
Yu Hua nodded.
Compared with Guangyuan Hou, he is now like a jackal that has lost its teeth and claws, and has no room for resistance.
After convincing Yu Hua, Wang Sheng immediately began to arrange things around Tongguan.
If Zhang Fang is really welcomed in by Yu Hua, then things will be easier to handle.
If he has doubts and doesn't come in, then you need to use option two.
but...
Chapter completed!
