Dazhou, Jinzhong
The second largest city of Yunbin, which used to be bustling with people, is now completely white and filled with a solemn and desolate atmosphere...
In the Governor's Mansion of Youyan located in the center of the city, Zhao Jianan and Huang Wenze, who were wearing filial piety, were sitting opposite each other. Zhao Jianan raised his head and looked at Huang Wenze and said very sincerely:
"The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable. That dog thief Ye Mingsheng and I are at odds with each other. If we don't kill this beast, Jian'an will be in vain!"
"Sir, you are my father's minister. I wonder if you have a good strategy to defeat the enemy?"
Although Zhao Jianan's words were very sincere, Huang Wenze was still not sure what Zhao Jianan was thinking!
In Huang Wenze's view, Zhao Jian'an is more tenacious than his younger brother Zhao Jianwen, and he is more diligent in handling government affairs. He can also pretend to be an open-minded and polite corporal to the outside world. In the current situation of the Yan Army, In such a desperate situation, Zhao Fuqu chose him as his successor instead of Zhao Jianwen, which was a very wise decision!
However, Zhao Jianan is stronger than Zhao Jianwen, which does not mean how powerful Zhao Jianan is. It only means that Zhao Jianwen is worse. In Huang Wenze's eyes, Zhao Jianan has a fatal flaw, that is, he has a very low self-esteem deep inside, and this The source of his inferiority complex is that he was the son of a married woman before Zhao Fuqu rose to prominence!
Although Zhao Jianan tried his best to hide this and always showed a positive image such as modesty and caution when dealing with people, everyone knew that this was a thorn in his heart. Whenever someone rejected him, It will inevitably make Zhao Jianan wonder if the other party looks down on him because of his origin...
In the previous overt and covert fight between the two brothers Zhao Jianan and Zhao Jianwen, Huang Wenze, as Zhao Fuqu's first adviser, was naturally the top priority for both sides to win over.
This was especially true for Zhao Jianan. After all, Zhao Jianan did not have the support of his mother's family, the Feng family, like his younger brother Zhao Jianwen, so he needed the support of important officials in the Yan army like Huang Wenze, who at that time was Zhao Fuqu's first adviser. Huang Wenze, in order to avoid Zhao Fuqu's suspicion, strictly remained neutral among the two brothers Zhao Jianan and Zhao Jianwen, and refused to take sides with Zhao Jianan many times!
In the face of Huang Wenze who rejected him many times, although Zhao Jianan still smiled on the surface and respected Huang Wenze very much, Huang Wenze had heard the news more than once that Zhao Jianan got drunk and cursed himself, and said that he would be a After you go to Governor Youyan, you must give Huang Wenze some color!
Now, despite the difficult situation of the Yan army, Zhao Jianan has become Zhao Fuqu's successor as he wished, taking control of the Yan army's last territory in Yunbin, as well as the remaining more than 10,000 soldiers. In order to hold on to the power in his hands, Zhao Jianan Many of the old people left behind by Zhao Fuqu adopted an evasive strategy!
Among them was Jin Zhengrui, a veteran of the Yan Army who had stayed in Jinzhong before Zhao Fuqu. After learning that Zhao Fuqu had died in Fuhu Gang, Zhao Jianan organized the whole city to mourn Zhao Fuqu on the one hand and seize power on the other. The pace did not slow down. Many of them took away Kim Jong-sui's military power and distributed it to his subordinates.
All of this had to make Huang Wenze feel very scared and chilled...
Talking about Zhao Jian'an's current problem, although he said it sounding high-sounding, there was nothing wrong with avenging his father, but Huang Wenze was a little unclear as to what Zhao Jian'an was thinking in his heart!
At present, the Yan army only has the territory of Jinzhong, and only has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses. Even if the young and strong men from Jinzhong are immediately recruited to join the army, the maximum number of soldiers and horses that can be obtained is only more than 20,000 people. After the current Fengwu Army captured Zhuoxian and completely occupied Youyan, its strength has increased significantly. In the military field, it has won consecutive battles and victories, making it unstoppable!
Zhao Fuqu sent 100,000 troops to counterattack, but they were all defeated by Fengwu Army at Fuhu Gang. Now what can you do with only 20,000 people?
Zhao Jianan is not a fool, how could he not know this?
So now that he knew it and asked himself this question, what was his intention?
Realizing this problem, although he couldn't figure out Zhao Jianan's thoughts, but thinking of Zhao Fuqu's instructions to him when he was in Zhuoxian County, Huang Wenze hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth and immediately said:
"Reporting to the Governor, our army is newly defeated and the rebels are strong. We are also newly endorsed by the imperial court and promoted to Governor of Yanliao. It is the peak of the sun. At this time, our army must not only bear in mind the hatred, but also have to work hard to endure the hardships. After all, you must know that your hard work will pay off, and three thousand Yue Jia can swallow up Wu. Since ancient times, the wind and water have been changing, and Ye Mingsheng cannot always be so lucky!"
Seeing Huang Wenze's submissive look on his face and the respectful manner in which he addressed himself as the Governor-General, Zhao Jianan felt secretly happy. Previously, this bitch had been ignoring him and letting his hot face stick to his cold ass. , He, Zhao Jianan, has been waiting for this moment for a long time...
After Huang Wenze finished speaking, Zhao Jianan patted his hands and praised:
"Mr. Huang is worthy of being the minister of humerus left to me by my father. What he said are all mature words for the country. I also intend to act according to Mr. Huang's plan and lie dormant in Jinzhong waiting for opportunities. From my point of view, if I want to be in Jinzhong To work hard, education must come first, so I plan to reopen the government school in Jinzhong to cultivate more talents for Yanjun and Dazhou. I wonder what Mr. Huang thinks of my idea?"
Hearing what Zhao Jianan said, Huang Wenze still didn't understand what Zhao Jianan wanted to do. He felt sad in his heart, but he could only nod and said:
"What the Governor said is absolutely true!"
When Zhao Jianan heard this, he pretended again and said:
"I feel more relieved after getting Mr. Huang's affirmation. However, everything else is almost ready for the reopening of the Fu Xue. However, there is only one person who can lead the Fu Xue Jiu Jiu. If you want to do this Fu Xue Jiu Jiu, you must It takes someone who is very famous in our Yan army to show the importance I attach to government studies. I have never had a suitable candidate. I wonder, Mr. Huang, what do you think of the position of offering wine?"
Feeling the hypocrisy in Zhao Jianan's words, Huang Wenze sighed deeply and knew that Zhao Jianan was determined, but as a minister, he could only accept Zhao Jianan's decision and said:
"Since the Governor is interested, I would rather be respectful than obey..."
After getting the answer from Huang Wenze, the smile on Zhao Jianan's face broadened and he said:
"I feel much more relieved to have Mr. Huang as the governor of the school. I believe that Mr. Huang can cultivate enough talents for our Yan army. In this case, other things in your hands can be handed over to Chen Su during this period. How many of them are Guo Zhen!”
Huang Wenze, who was heartbroken, nodded and said
"yes!"
After a few more pleasantries with Huang Wenze, Zhao Jianan asked Huang Wenze to leave. But when Huang Wenze walked to the door, Zhao Jianan's calm voice came to his ears.
"When the father dies, the son should come back to express his condolences, don't you think so, Mr. Huang?"
Huang Wenze was shocked as soon as these words came out. Just when he was about to say something, Huang Wenze smiled again and said:
Valley pile
"Mr. Huang! Please walk slowly!"

Liaoyang, Dongning
In the study room of Murong Mansion, father and daughter Murong Yuliang and Murong Qingwu were sitting opposite each other. For some reason, the atmosphere between them was a bit strange. Murong Yuliang seemed to want to say something, but he didn't know. Where to start? Seeing this, Murong Qingwu took the lead and said with a chuckle:
"Father, aren't you always worried that I will turn into an old girl and try every possible means to marry me off? Why am I like this now? Could it be that you can't bear to leave me anymore?"
Feeling the joke in Murong Qingwu's words, Murong Yuliang shook his head and said helplessly:
"You kid, you are still joking at this time..."
"Your father, I want to marry you off, but I hope to marry you to a good family, not to a dragon's nest and a tiger's den!"
Murong Qingwu was not surprised when she heard this. She blinked her beautiful eyes and said with a smile:
"Father, I don't want to say this. You have to know that you are the chief envoy of the Fengwu Army. Haven't you been teaching us since we were young that we should think twice before we act and be cautious?"
Listening to his precious daughter preaching to him, Murong Yuliang smiled bitterly, shook his head, and then said seriously:
"You haven't married yet, and they have already started in our house. What kind of methods will they use when you get married? And although his future is limitless, it is really unfair for you to be Qing Wu's concubine. You... Qing Wu, our five generations and three generations of the Murong family have not reached the point where you need to sacrifice your life's happiness. Your father and I are also capable of protecting you!"
Feeling the solemnity in Murong Yuliang's words, Murong Qingwu was also very moved and couldn't help but said:
"father········"
After the deep love between father and daughter, Murong Qingwu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then said softly:
"Dad, I have thought about what you said, but if I don't marry him, who can I marry?"
"If I really find someone else, I will probably always compare myself with him, and then I will definitely regret it and not be reconciled!"
After listening to his daughter's thoughts, Murong Yuliang nodded silently. For a long time, he looked at Murong Qingwu, nodded and said:
"Since Qingwu you have made up your mind, then as a father I will support your decision!"
At this point Murong Yuliang paused for a moment before continuing:
"Your cousin Murong Hui will return to Youyan in about half a month!"
Murong Qingwu was a little surprised when he heard this and said:
"Didn't my cousin just come here some time ago? Why are you here again so soon? Is there something important?"
Murong Yuliang explained:
"The situation at the Southern Patrol Court is not very good. Shangguan Hongyuan's army has approached Jianmen. Although Jianmen has natural dangers, it is hard to say whether it can stop Shangguan Hongyuan. The situation inside the Southern Patrol Court is also very complicated. , the reason why your uncle was able to successfully operate this time and let the Southern Patrol Court appoint him as the Governor of Yanliao, apart from your uncle's efforts, a large part of the reason is also related to the current crisis of the Southern Patrol Court... ············”
"Lin Shize and Jiang Guang's original plan was to have Zhao Fuqu and King Qin contain Shangguan Hongyuan on the east and west sides. Even if they could not defeat Shangguan Hongyuan, they could still ensure that the southern patrol court in Rongcheng was as stable as Mount Tai. But it is a pity that God's calculations are not as good as those of man. , King Qin’s Liang army was defeated by Shangguan Hongyuan, and Ye Mingsheng came out of the blue, quickly entered the pass and defeated Zhao Fuqu, so that the east and west sides they carefully built were completely in vain! "
"Without the constraints from the east and west sides, and the fact that the southern patrol court itself is a hodgepodge and cannot be united internally, Shangguan Hongyuan has the opportunity to take advantage of it and be able to march straight into the frontline and point directly at Chengdu, so in order to get rid of his own crisis , the southern patrol court placed its hopes on Ye Mingsheng, hoping that Ye Mingsheng could march westward, surround Wei and rescue Zhao, and force Shangguan Hongyuan to stop attacking Rongcheng!"
Murong Qingwu sighed softly when he heard this and said slowly:
"The Dukes of the Zhou Dynasty in Rongcheng really regard him as a loyal minister and good general of the Zhou Dynasty. Although the Fengwu army has won consecutive battles, after the battle with Luo Bei and the Yan army, it is now depleted of men and horses and lack of logistical supplies. It is estimated that they It’s time to rest for a while..."
After saying that, Murong Qingwu seemed to have thought of something and said immediately:
"Uncle sent my cousin here this time. Is it like asking him to persuade Ye Mingsheng to send troops to the west?"
Murong Yuliang nodded and said:
"This is partly the reason! But more importantly, after listening to your cousin's report, and after receiving the news that the Fengwu Army had completely captured Youyan, your uncle felt that the future prospects of the southern imperial court were not very good, so he decided Increase the stakes on Fengwu Army!"
"This time your cousin comes to Youyan and will not go back. He will seek to find an official position in the Fengwu Army. If everything goes well, more Murong family children will come. You Yan, and maybe even people from other families will come!"
After saying this, Murong Yuliang said to his daughter in a deep voice:
"Qing Wu, I'm just saying this to let you understand that your family will always be your most reliable support. Our Murong family will never let anyone bully us. We, the Murong family, really don't take the Hou An family of Kunshan seriously!"
"There are only Cui Shao and the Cui family. Although they have the upper hand, it seems to me that Ye Mingsheng is wary of them and does not completely trust them. This time you marry, there may be something Ye Mingsheng wants to do. We need to check and balance the Cui family’s ideas, so Ye Mingsheng will never let them do whatever they want..."
