Daqian was established in the place where the Fourth War was fought. Although it has been on good terms with Dali for nearly a hundred years, it has always had a bad relationship with Dayu, its mortal enemy. In particular, it was often at war with Nanchen and Beiliang, who were attached to Dayu. fight.
The two sides have been fighting constantly on the border.
Zhao Ding killed the son of Nanchen Qi Duke Wen Ziheng. Logically speaking, it was a matter worthy of celebration. However, since the previous dynasty, there had been a lot of political corruption and collusion between officials and businessmen became increasingly serious. Although he, Zhao Chongyuan, worked hard for two decades, the situation eased slightly. , but with the current national strength of Daqian, it is really not suitable for another war with Nanchen.
"This kid has made trouble for me. I wanted to praise him, but I didn't expect that he would create such a big trap for me in the blink of an eye."
Zhao Chongyuan was so angry that he cursed and had no intention of continuing to drink the half-eaten millet porridge.
"What's the situation now?"
Zhao Chongyuan pushed the table, stood up from the stool, and looked at Wang Lishi with a slightly gloomy face.
Since I came back from my last trip to Youzhou.
Zhao Chongyuan has already sent people to keep an eye on the situation in Youzhou. It's not that he doesn't worry about Zhao Ding's son, but that Youzhou now has a strong army and strong horses, and it's easy to attract covetous people. With his people helping to watch, apart from anything else, his father It's also a good idea to give Zhao Ding the answer.
"His Majesty......"
With a solemn expression, Wang Lishi told Zhao Chongyuan all the news that the inner guards of Daqian had come from Youzhou City in the past few days.
After hearing this, Zhao Chongyuan glanced at Wang Lishi with a groan: "Then Wen Liang deserves to die, and that bastard Wen Ziheng actually dares to send someone to assassinate my son. Please notify me immediately and let me do it." The hidden stakes planted in Nanchen made Wen Ziheng feel uncomfortable."
"It's Your Majesty."
Wang Lishi replied respectfully.
Countries fight against each other, some openly and some secretly.
Wen Ziheng can place people in Youzhou, and Zhao Chongyuan can naturally place people next to Wen Ziheng.
But despite saying this, Zhao Chongyuan's face still looked a little solemn.
There is no other reason.
With the current situation of the court in Daqian, the internal treasury of the external treasury cannot really support a national war, especially since Nanchen and Beiliang have always worn the same pair of trousers.
If Nan Chen takes action, Beiliang will definitely not sit idly by. In this case, under a double attack, even if Zhao Ding builds Youzhou City with iron barrels, he will suffer a lot if he is not careful.
"What's the news from Nan Chen?"
Zhao Chongyuan raised his head and looked at Wang Lishi.
Wang Lishi replied respectfully: "The news from Nanchen is that Wen Ziheng does not know the news outside, but the eldest princess of Nanchen, Wen Liang's mother, Yuan Qing, has entered the palace to ask for an audience with the leader of Nanchen, and wants to let the leader of Nanchen. Send troops to attack His Highness King Yan."
Zhao Chongyuan grinned and snorted: "That girl Yuan Qing knows how to do this."
Then he smacked his lips and thought: "Although I don't take Na Yuan Jia seriously, with his character, Na Yuan Jia will probably obey his sister."
He raised his head and looked at Wang Lishi again: "If you send someone to keep an eye on any news, report it to me immediately, especially about the correspondence between the Nanchen royal family and the Beiliang royal family, and report everything to me in detail. "
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Wang Lishi responded respectfully again before retreating out of Kunning Palace.
The so-called Yuan Jia is naturally the surname of Nan Chen.
Nanchen was originally a foreigner who took advantage of the chaos to occupy the Central Plains. Later, in order to rule the nobles of the Central Plains, he changed the name of the foreigner Tuoba to Yuan.
The previous generations of kings were all powerful leaders, but their lives were short-lived. By Yuan Jia's generation, there was already a trend of decline.
After watching Wang Lishi leave.
Empress Ma then said: "Chongyuan, I think that instead of waiting for Nanchen and Beiliang to connect, and we meet again to recruit and dismantle them, it is better to directly attack the mountains and shake the tigers, and combine the Tianjia Army stationed in Yanzhou and the Luo army stationed in Qingzhou. The navy was transferred to Youzhou to intimidate Nanchen and Beiliang.
Yuan Jia has a suspicious character. Although he dotes on his younger sister Yuan Qing, he is wary of Wen Zi's great achievements. Now that his nephew is dead, it has also helped him weaken the power of the Wen family invisibly, and in Beiliang The position of the crown prince has not yet been determined, and all the princes have aspirations to seize the throne. The Northern Liang royal family does not want to provoke me at this time, which will cause internal and external troubles.
And if we take a tougher stance right now, their alliance may collapse on its own.
As long as Nanchen and Beiliang retreat, we can be free to deal with those aristocratic families who secretly collude with Nanchen and Beiliang. "
Queen Ma looked at Zhao Chongyuan and spoke word by word.
To be favored by a wise master like Zhao Chongyuan, he has been favored for so many years.
Queen Ma naturally has her own merits.
It's just that this extraordinary feature is never revealed to the outside world, only told to Zhao Chongyuan.
And even if Zhao Chongyuan refused, Queen Ma would never force anything.
She knows what to do and what not to do as the mother of a country.
"let me see."
After hearing what Empress Ma said, Zhao Chongyuan frowned, stood up and walked around the room.
Empress Ma was not in a hurry and just looked at Zhao Chongyuan quietly.
In fact, after so many years.
The couple has always been like this.
After a while, Zhao Chongyuan nodded and said: "I think it is feasible."
There are problems within Daqian, and naturally there are problems within Nanchen and Beiliang. It is precisely because of this that a stalemate can be formed.
Now that the internal problems of Nanchen and Beiliang are going to be dealt with by him, he can naturally increase his momentum and shock the tigers, especially since Youzhou has been turned into a piece of iron under Zhao Ding's management in the past few years. Even if Without the support of Zhao Chongyuan, Nanchen and Beiliang would have to be prepared to have their teeth broken if they wanted to take over Youzhou.
And after shocking Nanchen and Beiliang.
He could also free up his hands to deal with the wavering aristocratic families in Daqian who secretly connected with Nanchen and Beiliang.
Zhao Chongyuan was so angry that his teeth itched at the thought of these moths.
But before that, he still had to go to Youzhou.
…
Youzhou.
Outside Prince Yan's Mansion.
A carriage stopped outside Prince Yan's Mansion.
Qi Buyu and Li Fangru stood in front of the carriage outside Prince Yan's Mansion, busy up and down.
"Sister Lutao, can I stay?"
Xiao Yunu looked at Lu Tao with an aggrieved look, and while speaking, his eyes looked into Prince Yan's palace from time to time.
Want to see Zhao Ding's figure appear.
But unfortunately, Zhao Ding's figure still did not appear.
"Princess, it's time to go, General Liu is waiting for us."
Qi Buyu's urging voice sounded.
"Know it."
Xiao Yunu curled her thin red lips, glanced at Qi Buyu with a dissatisfied look on her face, raised her little head and took another look inside Prince Yan's Mansion.
But it was still empty, with no business from Zhao Ding at all.
Just when Xiao Yunu turned around, Zhao Ding's voice suddenly sounded from inside the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion: "Remember, you owe me 150,000 taels of silver, and you have to pay it back!"
