Wu Zechen looked at the smile on Xia Luotong's face and heard her describe Wu Fengyan. He finally held back his smile. I'm afraid Wu Fengyan didn't want to be called a "child".
But through this, he finally understood the position of Wu Fengyan in Xia Luotong's heart.
Wu Zechen held back his laughter, paused briefly, and then said to Xia Luotong: "I have been in contact with the Yan family these days. Although Wu Fengyan did not show up, he secretly conveyed some information to me through the Yan family."
Although it was just a simple sentence, Xia Luotong heard a lot of information.
The Yan family is the mother clan of Wu Fengyan. They have just been rehabilitated. After so many years, although the Yan family has been affected somewhat and their strength is not as good as before, their influence cannot be underestimated. Otherwise, they would not be overshadowed by the prince, the king of Jin and the king of Qin. People are afraid of Wu Fengyan and the Yan family.
But even so, Wu Fengyan and the Yan family have become the fourth most powerful force among the princes, standing alongside the other three princes.
Over the years, the Yan family has not declined, but has been secretly accumulating strength until it rises again now. Wu Fengyan obviously has not really been reduced to an incompetent prince. He has also been secretly taught by the Queen Mother and the Yan family. grow.
Wu Zechen said this suddenly, and Xia Luotong immediately realized what it meant. Wu Zechen intended to unite the Yan family and Wu Fengyan, but she was not sure to what extent the cooperation would be and what the final purpose would be.
"But are you sure you want to unite with the Yan family and A Yan?"
"Undecided. Let's see how the follow-up talks go. I also want to see what they think." Wu Zechen will not hide anything or ideas he has from Xia Luotong now.
Xia Luotong nodded and didn't say much. It was better to be cautious. This was not a trivial matter. She knew that Wu Zechen also had his own considerations.
But thinking about the relationship between the Yan family and Wu Fengyan, she asked, "What do Achen think of the Yan family? Are they taking advantage of Ayan, or do they have other ideas?"
She was a little worried. If the Yan family just used Wu Fengyan's status as a prince to achieve their own goals and become an existence like the Duke of Fengguo, or to replace him and change dynasties, then Wu Fengyan's situation would be worrying.
Wu Zechen knew what Xia Luotong meant. He pondered for a moment before speaking out his judgment: "In the past, the Yan family did not value power, fame and wealth. They valued the people and the country more. Now that they have been rehabilitated, they have indeed changed. , but in my opinion, their change is more for revenge."
"revenge?"
Wu Zechen nodded: "Yes, not only the Yan family, but also Wu Fengyan also has the intention of revenge, because Li Bin was killed, not by suicide or accident, so based on my observation and intelligence during this period, the relationship between the Yan family and The relationship between Wu Fengyan and Wu Fengyan is not about exploiting, but more about family affection and revenge."
With that said, he told Xia Luotong some of the situation of the Yan family to help her analyze and speculate on her own.
The Yan family is not the kind of family that values interests. It relies on writing and etiquette to pass down the family line, so it has such a high prestige among literati. In addition, the feelings within the family of such a family are more harmonious and cohesive than ordinary aristocratic families. The relationship between them is also more intimate.
If it hadn't been for the emperor's direct decree, Wu Fengyan's mother would not have married into the palace. The Yan family had no intention of letting their daughter into the palace as a concubine. However, because of the emperor's selfish wishes, Wu Fengyan's mother was forced to marry into the palace. Entering the palace did not end well in the end, and he died early.
The current head of the Yan family is Wu Fengyan's uncle and Libi's younger brother. He is now the only one left in the Yan family. All his parents, brothers and sisters died in the catastrophe that year. So what if he is rehabilitated?
In the view of the head of the Yan family, his relatives are dead and cannot be resurrected. Only by avenging a great revenge can they pay homage to their deceased souls.
"So, it is possible that the head of the Yan family has returned for revenge." Xia Luotong couldn't help but sigh about the Yan family's past.
But she still couldn't help asking worriedly: "The head of the Yan family won't do anything detrimental to A Yan for revenge, right?"
"Probably not, because Wu Fengyan is Libi's only descendant. Even considering this, Lord Yan will not be unfavorable to Wu Fengyan." Wu Zechen said his guess, "Back then, as the youngest son of the family, Lord Yan was deeply loved by the whole family. Before Concubine Li entered the palace, she often led and taught her younger brother, so the relationship between the two siblings is very deep."
The head of the Yan family has a deep love for Li Bi's sister and brother, so as Li Bi's only son, the head of the Yan family who values family ties and comes for revenge is indeed unlikely to be unfavorable to Wu Fengyan.
Xia Luotong felt relieved, but then he couldn't help but think of the inevitable problem...
"What do you think...if Ah Yan inherits the throne..."
Before she finished speaking, Wu Zechen already understood what she meant.
In fact, the current situation is very embarrassing for Prince An's Mansion. The prince wants Wu Zechen to die immediately, and he even has evil intentions towards Xia Luotong. If the prince ascends the throne, it will be devastating for Prince An's Mansion. Prince An's Mansion If they don't want to be destroyed, they can only choose to rebel against the prince, but this is not what Wu Zechen and Xia Luotong want to see.
War not only depletes national power, it is also a disaster for ordinary people.
Xia Luotong knew in his heart that no matter how much hatred Wu Zechen had in his heart, he still cared about the people of the Zhou Dynasty and the country of the Zhou Dynasty. He didn't want to go to that step, and he didn't even care about that person.
But apart from the prince, the King of Jin and the King of Qin also have murderous intentions towards Prince An's Mansion. This can be seen from the daily actions of these two forces, not to mention that these two forces have an old grudge against Prince An's Mansion. Old grudges remain.
From the poisonous blood of Prince Xian'an, Xia Luotong had found evidence that he was closely related to these two forces. Therefore, it was impossible for Prince An's palace and these two forces to live in peace.
The emperor also wanted to get rid of Prince An's Mansion and seize the military power from Prince An's Mansion...
From this point of view, Prince An's Mansion is really in an awkward situation. This problem has been bothering Wu Zechen and Xia Luotong before, but now there is finally a breakthrough. This is why Wu Zechen came into contact with the Yan family.
Because at present, it seems that Wu Fengyan and the Yan family are the most suitable, and the relationship between Wu Fengyan and Xia Luotong is also very harmonious.
Wu Zechen had the same idea as Xia Luotong, so he also paid more attention to Wu Fengyan. When Xia Luotong mentioned it, he was not surprised.
"He has a strategy and a thought, but I don't know if he has this intention."
Wu Zechen knew that Wu Fengyan and the Yan family wanted revenge, but he didn't know whether Wu Fengyan had the idea of ascending to the throne, because he himself did not have such thoughts, so he did not think that everyone had the idea of taking that position.
That position can bring supreme rights, but it can also be a lifelong shackles...
