Xia Xingbang said every word with great force, as if he wanted to wipe away all the previous humiliation!
The whole place was in an uproar.
Xia Jiuyuan's sinister face instantly revealed a smile.
"Really? Is your news reliable?"
Xia Xingbang subconsciously glanced at Gao Weixin next to Xia Jiuyuan.
In fact, he didn't receive any news at all...
Gao Weixin told him the news.
Gao Weixin nodded very covertly.
Xia Xingbang now nodded with certainty and said, "Father, Lu Shangshu is back and has brought back the elite of our Huo Family Army. A large part of the reason why our Huo Family Army has been defeated repeatedly is because the elite generals and soldiers went to attack the Western Regions." ! I believe that this time when our Huo family’s elite come back, we will be able to conquer the enemy with overwhelming force!”
Xia Jiuyuan didn't wait for an answer.
Xia Yan on the side snorted coldly and said, "Xia Xingbang, you are too naive... Besides, who knows if they have been bribed by people from the Western Regions! Do you still think that Huo Jiajun is still your Huo Jiajun? Father, son, minister It is suggested that Father give an order to prevent them from entering Daxia."
Xia Jiuyuan couldn't understand Xia Yan's words, so he frowned slightly and said, "Why?"
Xia Yan cupped his hands and said, "Father, we all know. That eunuch Lu Qian led the Huo family army to surrender... Since he surrendered, he also negotiated peace to sweep across the Western Regions? In my opinion, this is their Western Region strategy! I'm afraid the Western Regions will I saw that the Great Zhou Kingdom and the Northern Liang Kingdom had taken advantage of Daxia. So I also wanted to come over and get a share of the pie! Once I let them in, I would be inviting the wolf into the house!"
"Your Majesty, Your Highness is right! Our Ministry of War has sent spies before, but we have never heard of a war in the Western Region. Is it possible that that eunuch Lu Qian still has the ability to defeat the enemy without fighting? If so, , Why did you surrender in the first place? Your Majesty, I think this move was fraudulent." said an official under Xia Yan.
"Father, they are all fallacious... At the beginning, Lu Shangshu obviously committed himself to the Western Regions first, and then took the opportunity to attack... This is the art of war... If we exclude the Huo family's army from abroad, it will not chill the soldiers who are fighting abroad. ? And this time, we also lack soldiers and horses! We need them." Xia Xingbang said.
"You also said that this is the art of war. It can be used by people in the Western Regions...can't it be used by us? Father, now Daxia has internal and external troubles...We have to guard against it. Father, if you have concerns, send Give me 100,000 elite soldiers! I will go to the border to check, and if there is no problem, I will bring him back! If he has evil intentions, I will kill him without leaving a trace!" Xia Yan said with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Father, I am willing to guarantee it with my life!" Xia Xingbang said to Xia Jiuyuan.
Xia Yan didn't wait for Xia Jiuyuan to speak, and started to say, "Guarantee of life? I'm afraid your life is not worth anything..."
"You..." Xia Xingbang looked ugly and couldn't say anything for a moment.
After hearing Xia Yan's words, Xia Jiuyuan was silent for a moment.
He looked at Guo Sixin, who had been silent, and asked, "Guo Shoufu, what do you think?"
Guo Sixin held up his hands and said, "I thought that if the Western Region was swept! There would be a surrender letter and tribute. These cannot be false! I thought that His Highness Xia Xingbang had a deep relationship with the Huo family army, so I thought that I could let Xia Xingbang It would be more appropriate for Your Highness to go down. Let him check it out and then make a decision."
Seeing Guo Sixin say this, Xia Xingbang glanced at him with gratitude.
Xia Yan wanted to speak.
This time Xia Jiuyuan said, "Just follow Guo Shoufu's wishes. Xingbang, don't let me down this time."
Xia Xingbang knelt on the ground and said, "I obey the order..."
Xia Yan's face was full of dissatisfaction.
After he retired from the imperial court, Xia Yan went to find Xia Jiuyuan.
"Father, we can't let them come back! The things we did to embarrass them before are still before us... I'm worried now that people in the Western Region will find out and we are deliberately trying to kill them... Bringing us back is a disaster. ..." Xia Yan reminded Xia Jiuyuan.
Xia Jiuyuan looked gloomy
He patted the table and said, "Fart, when will I kill them... I asked them to go to the Western Regions to avenge General Huo! I asked you to send food and grass, didn't you?"
Xia Yan looked slightly embarrassed, Xia Jiuyuan had indeed said it.
However, Xia Yan didn't give him even a pound of food and grass.
"Of course I sent all my sons and ministers away..."
"That's enough! Xia Yan! Now is not the time for internal strife. There are wars on the border! If it can't be resolved, our country, Daxia, will be destroyed! Please give me some peace of mind recently. As for them, even if they come back, I have a way to deal with them. ..Hmph, can I still be manipulated by a eunuch?" Xia Jiuyuan said to Xia Yan.
Seeing Xia Jiuyuan say this, Xia Yan's expression softened a lot.
...
When Lu Qian arrived at the border with a hundred thousand Huo family troops.
Xia Xingbang has also arrived.
Seeing that it was Xia Xingbang who came to greet him, all the generals of the Huo Family Army were also very happy.
"Mr. Lu, you've had a hard journey." Xia Xingbang seemed to have become much more decadent and thinner after he was deposed as the crown prince.
At this time, Lu Qian said to Xia Xingbang, "His Royal Highness, you must have spent a lot of effort to pick us up in person."
When Xia Xingbang saw that Lu Qian still called him the prince, he looked slightly embarrassed and said, "Mr. Lu, I am no longer the prince..."
Lu Qian pretended to be stupid and showed surprise.
All the generals also asked him angrily what happened.
Xia Xingbang explained to everyone, and then said, "The main reason is that Xia Yan is obstructing it, obstructing it in every possible way, and collaborating with the enemy! Otherwise, how could we have suffered such disastrous defeats at the border!"
"Your Highness, now we are back... With the help of Mr. Lu, we will help you fight back. Help you regain your position as crown prince." All the generals said indignantly.
After hearing what the generals said, Xia Xingbang smiled bitterly, and then said, "I accept your wishes, generals. I have some matters that I want to discuss with Lu Shangshu."
The generals left with understanding.
After they left, Xia Xingbang said to Lu Qian, "Mr. Lu, have you really swept away the Western Region? When you go back this time, Xia Yan will definitely make things difficult for you... Even Eunuch Gao asked me to tell you that His Majesty seems to have You don’t really trust me either. I want you to make plans in advance..."
Lu Qian smiled slightly and said confidently, "Don't worry, since I dare to come back, I will be fully prepared. I have a way to prevent His Majesty from making things difficult for me, and to prevent Xia Yan from having to bear the burden this time." Walk!"
