Just as Li Qian and his subordinates were stroking their arms and fists, eager to try to make a big move, the gate of Jinling City suddenly opened, and a cavalry left Jinling City with silence and headed south.

Li Qian frowned when he received the news.

What happened in Jinling City has not been found out yet. Now that this incident has happened again, he always feels something is wrong in his heart.

As a result, before he could think about it, another scout sent a spy, saying that the few people around Zhao Xiao protected Zhao Xiao and a female family and left the capital. Look at it, Zhao Xiao planned to send everyone around him back to the Zhao family with strong control Minnan: "...If it weren't for the open room around Zhao Xiao, it might be someone Zhao Xiao valued. Maybe he also brought private money to the road. This news has spread in the green forest, and maybe it would cause robbery."

"Impossible!" Li Qian said slowly, and asked someone to invite Liu Li and Xie Yuanxi over and told the two of them what happened.

Liu Li thought quietly.

Xie Yuanxi said, "I agree with you, Zhao Xiao is no better than others. If he is defeated, he will be defeated like a mountain. I am afraid that Minnan's ancestral property will be difficult to continue. He does not have a particularly favored inner servant around him. It is impossible to be solemnly escorted who will return to Fujian. Could it be that Zhao Xiao hired a military advisor? Although the people we placed in his mansion before had not heard any news, Jiangnan's literary style was so prosperous. Could he just find a military advisor in these few days?"

Only such a person will make Zhao Xiao send heavy troops back to Minnan like a treasure.

But there is another unreasonable place here.

The battlefield is now in Jinling. If he really hired a military advisor who could give him advice, he should have kept him by his side, but sent the person to Minnan... Could it be that Zhao Xiao had made up his mind to take Minnan's Marquis Jinghai as his nest and retreat to Minnan if he couldn't fight.

After all, southern Fujian has high mountains and steep mountains, dangerous mountains and roads, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.

It would be difficult for him to really retreat to southern Fujian.

At least in recent years, there will be no way to conquer southern Fujian.

However, if Zhao Xiao really thought so in his heart, it would be considered as a failure without fighting?

He can't fight, but he is surrounded by warriors. He will understand more or less a little about military strategy and tactical matters.

Xie Yuanxi was thinking randomly, and his tone seemed a little absent-minded, saying, "This matter must be checked. However, the most urgent thing is to find out what Zhao Xiao plans? If he is really prepared to return to southern Fujian if the war is unfavorable, then he will be terrified before the war begins. Maybe we can make use of it..."

He touched his beard that had just been encouraged by his daughter, and felt very calm and comfortable.

Liu Li suddenly raised his head, his face turned ashen, and said to Li Qian: "If I was not wrong, there would be an emperor in the first cavalry. Zhao Xiao did not send a woman or military advisor back to Fujian, but instead coerced the emperor to southern Fujian."

Li Qian and Xie Yuanxi opened their mouths slightly at Liu Li, their eyes straightened, and they came to their senses after a while. Li Qian jumped up like a cat with only his tail stepped on and said, "He dares!"

"What's wrong with him?" Liu Li interrupted Li Qian's words coldly.

In his opinion, Li Qian was good at everything, but there were two things that made him dissatisfied. One was that he valued Jiang Xian too much and took Jiang Feng as the priority for everything. Fortunately, Jiang Xian had a good temper and had been caring for Li Qian for so many years. The two had only one child. Even if there were any conflicts, those small conflicts that could not be caused. The Li family had not had any major problems for so many years. Second, Li Qian had obviously expected it, but when the matter was about to come, he still hoped that the other party could make a mistake again. If it was those who were obsessed, it would be fine, but they were afraid that those so-called people who had already made a mistake came to cause trouble for Li Qian. He felt that Li Qian's heart was too soft.

Thinking of this, Liu Li couldn't help but sigh and said, "Forget it, if Zhao Xiao really captured the emperor, he must have made complete preparations. As for the emperor who was in a carriage and left the capital with the cavalry, it was too late for us to catch up and stop him. Why not think about what to do next?"

"No matter what Marquis Jinghai made, he would set up the camp in three days and attack Jinling with all his strength." Li Qian said coldly, without explaining his performance just now, and continued: "No matter whether Zhao Xi left Jinling or not, our plan would not change. But there was something that made people stare at it - in this case, the Queen Liu could not go with Zhao Xi. We don't need to keep Zhao Xi, but we would have to leave Empress Liu no matter what."

Liu Li instantly understood, and Xie Yuanxi was still a little confused.

Let Zhao Xi leave him and understand.

As the emperor, Zhao Xi, like the garrisons in various places, had the responsibility of living and dying with the country. He first gave up his ancestors to establish the capital, and then quietly fled to Minnan without telling the situation before the war. He was unfaithful and unrighteous, and had long lost the qualification to be a wise and virtuous king. As long as Li Qian used some means and promoted Zhao Xi's evil deeds in the scholars, he could win the support of the public in public opinion and establish an unbreakable place.

But I left Empress Liu... I have never killed female relatives in military affairs. With Li Qian's character, of course, I would not make things difficult for Empress Liu. So what is the purpose of Empress Liu staying?

Xie Yuanxi was very confused.

Liu Li had to whisper to explain to him: "When the first emperor was there, he had to tolerate Princess Jianan because the Empress Dowager was the great-grandmother of the Emperor. When Zhao Xi ascended the throne, Empress Han trapped the inner palace, but many people still praised the Han family because the Han family was the empress dowager and could restrain Zhao Xi. Now, Liu is also in the name of the empress... Sometimes it can be used to treat Zhao Xi!"

Xie Yuanxi looked at Li Qian.

Li Qian didn't say anything, and his mouth was tightly pursed.

Cao Xuan and Jiang Xian also gave him a similar strategy. He decided to improve it on this basis and use this strategy to the extreme so that he could slightly reduce the anger, resentment and self-blame caused by Jiang Xian being kidnapped by King Jian.

Liu Li and Xie Yuanxi understood the strength of the harem better. Especially since the regent of Empress Dowager Cao in this dynasty, everyone seemed to have gradually become accustomed to women's involvement in politics. When Jiang Xian supported Zhao Xi, everyone seemed to have believed that women in the harem liked to engage in politics, and the impact of the harem on the court became increasingly greater.

He said, "Prince, please leave this matter to me!"

Although Liu Li was from Taiyuan, although he was from the Li family, in order not to drag down his son, Li Changqing has always distinguished his people from Li Qian's people very clearly, which also led to Li Qian's people feeling that Xie Yuanxi, who is often with them, is more intimate.

He is not good at fighting, so it is better to help Li Qian do such a small thing.

Li Qian has to admit that Liu Li is really the most suitable candidate.

He agreed.

When Li Qian was ready, he received an accurate reply from Liu Ying.

Just a day ago, Zhao Xiao quietly escorted Zhao Xi away from Jinling and headed south to Fujian. Due to the complicated harem staff and the inconvenience on the road, Empress Liu moved into the Daxiang Temple Kingdom. After receiving Li Qian's order, they immediately abandoned Zhao Xi and stared at Empress Liu, and intercepted Empress Liu after Empress Liu left the city.
