"Isn't it Mo Jie and Gao Juli who are causing trouble?" Xiao Chen sighed, "It just makes me, my slave, so anxious and sleepless. I don't know what to do, so I can only go to the capital to ask for instructions from the emperor and prince."
"Is Zuo Weipan really shot to death by Wanyanhong himself?" Li Shi asked.
"My slave is at the scene and saw it with my own eyes!" Xiao Chen said.
"What did he do?" Li Shi asked knowingly, or it could be said that he only got rumors and wanted Xiao Chen to verify it himself.
Xiao Chen naturally told the truth. After saying that, the old prince Yanhong suspected that Li Feng had sent Zuo Weipan to collude with his sons in an attempt to kill him and replace him. However, the matter was not kept secret and was discovered by him, causing him to die within a day. After the death of his two sons, he was so sad and angry that he shot Zuo Weipan to death.
But from the slave's point of view, either Old Prince Wanyanhong misunderstood, or Zuo Weipan acted on his own initiative and acted recklessly!
Otherwise, how could King Fengyang be so wise and powerful as to do such a despicable and shameful thing?
The implication behind the words is that Fengyang Prince Li Feng is really despicable and despicable, and I’m afraid you, my lord, will not give in too much, and the things you did to me are also shameful...
It belongs to knocking on the mountain to shock the tiger, pointing to the mulberry tree and scolding the locust tree.
"Haha, it's hard for you and me to say anything about this matter. Let's let the emperor's holy will decide. Even if it was the king's brother who did it, his intentions are good after all. After all, isn't it still for our great Zhou Dynasty?" Li Shi's words are tantamount to It was a stabbing knife into Xiao Chen's heart.
"Your Majesty, King Fengyang is too rash to do this! Isn't this a stab at me by putting eye drops on my slave? What you know is his counter-intentional plan of King Fengyang, but those who don't know think that I want to kill him. Where's Wanyanhong! Fortunately, Wanyan Pingqiu is smart enough to know that this matter has nothing to do with me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see the prince!"
"Well, speaking of Wanyan Pingqiu, he led a large-scale invasion of Gao Juli... but it was also your instigation, wasn't it?" Li Shi changed the subject and pointed directly at Xiao Chen.
"My lord, he is the leader of the Northern Xinjiang alliance. How could I have ordered him? But at that time, it was indeed the Japanese who colluded with Yanchangqing, coveted our Northern Xinjiang land, and even sent troops to invade. Wanyan Pingqiu would definitely not tolerate it. Only then did Fight back... Although I don't agree, slave, I don't object either, hehe." Xiao Chen said.
"Hmph! Without the support of your boy, Wanyan Pingqiu could have beaten the Japanese people to such a state of embarrassment? You are too reckless to do so. You have acted arbitrarily without asking for the holy will. This is not the case in the imperial court now. How many people want to impeach you?" Li Shidao.
"Sigh... the situation at that time was that the Japanese lit a fire and burned Wanyan Pingqiu's hair directly. The fire developed so fast and was so big that the slave didn't even react and ended up here now. It’s so bad!” Xiao Chen said that he also panicked at that time.
"Besides, I have also thought about it. If I report this matter to the emperor and prince, it will actually be quite difficult for you. Instead of doing this, it is better to let the servant take the blame first, so that you can leave some room." Xiao Chen said again. I'm doing this all for your sake.
What if I had reported it to the emperor in a hurry and asked for instructions? What can the emperor do?
Are you asking me to cooperate with Wanyan Pingqiu to regain Gao Juli, who originally belonged to our Chinese vassal state?
Or should I send troops to help the Japanese defeat Yan Pingqiu? No matter how you do it, it is very inappropriate.
It is better to wait and see what happens. For example, if the situation has changed to this point, the emperor must have taken care of it. I came here to ask for an order. I will do whatever the emperor asks me to do!
By the way, I also brought Gao Juli's puppet king Li Renzong. How to deal with him depends entirely on the emperor's wishes.
"Well, what you did is actually right. This is called adapting to circumstances." Li Shi was completely convinced of Xiao Chen's approach. This kid has always been so smart.
Since you are so smart, what is your opinion on the current situation in Gao Juli?
"I think that we can take advantage of the Northern Xinjiang cavalry's autumn wind to sweep away the fallen leaves, regain the entire Gaojuli, and re-proclaim Li Renzong as king, and then we, the Great Zhou Dynasty, will send troops to station, and we will have the advantage of being a fisherman." Xiao Chen's idea is so simple and crude. .
"Oh? Is this what you think? What if Wanyan Pingqiu refuses to give up Gao Juli?" Li Shi asked.
"Haha, their northern Xinjiang tribes are great at fighting, but their ability to occupy cities and govern places is much worse. Besides, how many people and soldiers do they have in total? Can they occupy a land as big as Gao Juli? So as long as you give If they do something good, they will definitely withdraw their troops happily." Xiao Chen said.
"If we do this, wouldn't we be at war with the Japanese? What if they launch a counterattack with all their strength, send a fleet to attack your Shunfeng Port, and take advantage of the situation to invade Yanyun County?" Li Shi asked.
"Then there is only one way, which is to ask the prince to take the trouble to go to Yanyun County in person! With you here, the prince, we are still afraid of the Japanese people!" Xiao Chen said loudly.
"Shall I go to Yanyun County?" Li Shi was shocked when he heard this, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"No one can do it except the prince! I am here to invite the prince to come out. As long as you are willing to go, prince, I will immediately go to the palace to see the emperor and ask him to issue an order to send the prince to Yanyun County to lead the servants. Wait, let's fight to the death with the Japanese!" Xiao Chen was definitely sure.
"Alas... I'm afraid the emperor won't allow it." Li Shi sighed, his eyes dimming again.
"Isn't it possible?" Xiao Chen expressed disbelief, "For the current plan, this is the only way. The slaves are so timid that they don't even notice the Japanese people. With the emperor's wisdom and martial arts, how can he still be afraid of them? Aren’t you a little devil?”
"That's not true, but I'm afraid the emperor has other considerations, and we don't know..." Li Shi hesitated.
"Ah?" Xiao Chen said he was very shocked, "Does the Emperor want to make peace with the Japanese? That would be too... too... this, this, that, that."
"What this and that? Is this what you, a border official, said?" Li Shi paused and said, "The emperor's most trusted concern is not in the northeast, but in the southeast." Li Shidao.
"Southeast...fuck you, you can't do it!" Xiao Chen said in his heart, f*ck, I really guessed it!
In fact, from Xiao Chen's personal point of view, Gao Juli is far more important than Yizhou. Although the navy of Yizhou Tianxuanhui is very strong, the most they can do is harass the coast of Minzhou County.
The last time Xiao Xinghan rashly attacked Minzhou, he lost his troops and generals and returned home defeated.
Now they are unable to pose any substantial threat to the Great Zhou Dynasty. As long as they have a navy stationed in Minzhou County and strengthen the defense of coastal ports, they will be enough to deal with it.
After the other rebellions in the Great Zhou Dynasty are settled, it is not too late to rest and recuperate for a few years before making plans again. Moreover, other methods can be used to dismantle the Tianxuan Society during this period.
In short, Yizhou was just a scabies disease to Da Zhou, but it was not a serious problem.
