"Sima Ru can clearly see the overall situation in this regard. It is much easier to eliminate the Feng family by using the direction of the wind. In fact, the poppies of Southern Chu, Sima Ji of Jin, and King Jiang Chen of Xia all have similar trends. This is what I wanted at the beginning. The goal achieved is just far from being abandoned by the whole world."
Meng Chanjuan said: "When the Four Kingdoms are fighting, it is indeed not the time to fall out with the Feng family. Not everyone is as domineering as your wife, and not all countries are as warlike as Great Qin."
Jiang Fan smiled and said, "Speaking of belligerence, Qin did not participate this time."
Meng Chanjuan's eyes flashed, and she smiled sweetly: "It doesn't look like she participated. She has done everything she needs to do. You two are both ghosts among humans."
"She is the empress and I am the demon." Jiang Fan corrected.
Meng Chanjuan sighed gently: "It's hard to live in your first house..."
Jiang Fan rolled his eyes. He hadn't been serious for a while. Why was Mengchanjuan even more seductive than Lin Xiaoqi?
"Speaking of which, the young master has sent a large army to clean up the Feng family's forces along the eastern border of Qin this time. What is his plan? Continue to delay time, or is he deliberately trying to deepen the conflict?"
Jiang Fan looked at her: "Yes, I need time to do something else. And it is correct to deepen the conflict. I have to keep stimulating Fengchen and keep his brain in a feverish state."
Meng Chanjuan frowned slightly: "Fengchen is arrogant and always irritates him. Are you not afraid that he will suddenly do something drastic?"
Jiang Fan's eyes flashed, and the corner of his lips curled up with a strange expression, but he did not respond.
Mengchanjuan was stunned for a moment when she saw this, and then she became thoughtful.
"...Fengchen did not go to Qin to find the empress, but went to southern Shanxi."
Jiang Fan nodded lightly: "He knows that questioning Xiao Cui head-on is useless, and might even anger her completely, so..."
"So he is probably going to sit back and wait for the young master..."
"I guessed it right. This time we went to Huangquan Sect, he was almost sure that I was the one behind it. After all, there are loopholes like the queen bee, the poppy poppies, and the devil commander. It is only a matter of time before they are seen through."
Meng Chanjuan's expression became solemn: "Then Feng Tiannan returns to Guanyue Peak..."
"I'm afraid I have to meet the five elders in person to clear the Feng family's name."
"And we have to target the young master."
Jiang Fan said: "Father and son are fighting together. The Feng family has finally begun to treat me as a person. Haha."
"That's almost it. They are not fools. They must be able to understand that whether it is Qin's rebellion, Fengchen's marriage, or chance, you are the one who is hindering it. If we get rid of you, everything will be easier to handle."
Jiang Fan pinched his chin: "So I have to give them a chance."
Meng Chanjuan's expression changed slightly: "So you are going to the place where the Fourth Battle is?"
Jiang Fan said: "Where else is more suitable?"
Meng Chanjuan thought for a while: "The Qin State has an unparalleled domineering female emperor, and a large army is cleaning up the border. As a secret dynasty, the Feng family really cannot afford to do anything. You are going to the Jin State, which really gives them a good opportunity. But..."
Meng Chanjuan said solemnly: "Sir, have you ever thought about it, the Feng family has been a family for two thousand years, let alone using all its strength to deal with one person, even using a part of its strength is terrifying."
Jiang Fan said calmly: "I just want to have a head-on confrontation with the Feng family outside the Qin Kingdom, so that the world can know that the so-called secretly courting the imperial court is nothing more than that."
Meng Chanjuan couldn't help but marvel at his courage: "Young Master is far-sighted and courageous. Chanjuan admires him."
"Now let's look at the attitude of the Holy Land. If Taiyue bans my title of Holy Envoy of Supervising the Country, it means that they are more inclined to the Feng family, and the Feng family can attack me without any scruples. As for the King of Zhenxi who was conferred by the imperial court , not in their eyes at all.”
Meng Chanjuan nodded: "No one can underestimate the Holy Land. The Holy Envoy of the Supervisory State has Taiyue to prepare a letter. If the Feng family relies on Taiyue, they must pay attention to this title and avoid direct sniping. If Taiyue bans it, everything will be in jeopardy." It's true that the Feng family has no scruples, especially outside the Qin Kingdom, they don't worry about the empress at all."
Jiang Fan said: "Tai Yue didn't give me the real authority to supervise the country at all, because they still can't see me clearly and don't trust me. I once tried to mobilize the power of the holy places in Qin, but there was no response. Especially when Xiaocui and I were engaged. , and after Xiaocui slashed the Holy Envoy with his sword that day, they didn’t even bother to do anything they wanted to do, and they didn’t even pay attention to me, the so-called Holy Envoy who oversees the country.”
Meng Chanjuan frowned: "But no matter how my father slanders you, the Holy Land should at least summon you back for questioning."
Jiang Fan said slowly: "If that's really the case, then there will be great danger."
Meng Chanjuan was a little confused for a moment, but Jiang Fan did not elaborate on it with her. Only he knew that if Taiyue summoned him, it would most likely be a trap, because it could mean two things.
First, Taiyue understood that it was impossible for him to confront the empress. In this way, they will never allow powerful forces to join forces, and the next step must be to find a way to be themselves.
Secondly, what is even more frightening is that Taiyue may begin to doubt his true identity. As for Taiyue, he will definitely not give Dazhou any chance to rise again. Even if he returns this opportunity to the Feng family, it will at least allow them to be respected by the world for hundreds of more years.
The lack of a summons means that they are still observing. Even if they say that their marriage with the empress is not serious at the moment, they may still think that it is just their own strategy to fight for power.
We can't blame Jiang Fan for attaching great importance to Taiyue. Temple affairs are far more complicated than Jianghu affairs. And Taiyue has been in charge of the temple for thousands of years, and his background is too profound. Take the Chu invasion of Jin as an example. Taiyue intended to promote peace talks, but did not issue an edict. If Taiyue issued an edict, even Xiang Chen would have to treat it with caution.
Because the five kingdoms in the world, the Ming Dynasty and the Dark Dynasty, all respect the holy land, the Zhou Dynasty can continue to live because of Taiyue. An Dynasty survived because of Taiyue. The five kingdoms are balanced because of Mount Tai. Once someone goes out of line alone, it is easy to give excuses to other forces. For example, who didn't remember clearly the events of the Four Kingdoms' attack on Qin?
The reason why the empress is different is actually because of this. She dared to challenge Taiyue, because Taiyue was one of the culprits who set off the Five Kingdoms to conquer Qin, and he was the one who wanted it in the end. Both sides were at odds, and they were not completely Using swords and soldiers is not bad, but as for saving face, it is really not necessary.
Therefore, holy envoys and the like could be chopped down by the empress, and edicts and the like could be thrown away at the request of the empress.
As for Taiyue, which had failed once, there was no possibility of the Four Kingdoms attacking Qin again in a short period of time. Both sides were actually trying to avoid it, and the purpose of avoiding it was to accumulate strength. This is what Xiaocui said, sooner or later there will be chaos. Qin State, whether active or passive, must embark on the road to conquer the world. This is not only a dream, but also a matter of survival.
While she was thinking about it, Miss Cui Yi hurried upstairs and said that she had a visitor asking to see Mr. Jiang.
