After sighing with emotion, Xu Zhaojie had to face reality. If Fang She's guess was correct, then the situation he would face next would be extremely bad... ·
After thinking for a while, Xu Zhaojie made a very painful decision and said in a deep voice:
"The person behind this assassination operation is the Coordination Office!"
"yes!"
Hearing what Xu Zhaojie said, an imperceptible strange color flashed in Fang Snake's eyes.
Although there is no evidence to show that these big families were involved in this operation, although the Central Coordination Office is very rampant in Huainan, their power is not large enough to launch an assassination of all the senior officials of Qianhu Guard at the same time. Therefore, if the Coordination Office can complete this operation, someone must be helping them, and the intensity of this help will not be small!
As the saying goes, if you don't want others to know, you have to do it yourself. There is no airtight wall in the world, and it is such a large-scale assassination operation. It is impossible not to leave any traces. Therefore, as long as you search carefully, you will definitely be able to find those things. Evidence that the extended family was involved in the assassination.
But now Xu Zhaojie only mentions the Coordination Office and not a word about those big families. This undoubtedly illustrates Xu Zhaojie's attitude towards this matter!
To be honest, Fang She was very surprised by Xu Zhaojie's reaction. After all, Xu Zhaojie has always been famous for being fierce and domineering. Faced with such an arrogant provocation, according to Xu Zhaojie's past style, he should have responded with tooth for tooth, eye for eye, and avenged his own uncle. right!
And now this statement is really surprising, even a little disappointing...
Although the strange color in Fang Snake's eyes was very hidden, it was still not hidden from Xu Zhaojie's eyes. Xu Zhaojie also understood what Fang Snake might be thinking at this time, but he didn't say much, but changed his voice and said
"Fang Snake, I know you like to hide in the dark, so I will let Xu Zhengyuan take over as the commander of the Qianhu Guard, but he only serves as the commander of the Qianhu Guard on the surface. In fact, the Qianhu Guard is controlled by you, Fang Snake. Everyone in Qianhu Guard, including Xu Zhengyuan, obeys your orders!"
Hearing that Xu Zhaojie had given him such great power, Fang She's emotionless eyes couldn't help but show a trace of fluctuation!
He knew that Xu Zhaojie's attitude toward him had always been to use himself but also to be wary of him, and he had always been very cautious about giving himself power. But this time he handed over all the Qianhu Guards to him, which was enough to show that Xu Zhaojie was really ruthless this time!
Although he covets the power of Qian Huwei, Fang She also knows that Xu Zhaojie must have requirements for himself, and this requirement must be very strict!
Once you fail to fulfill Xu Zhaojie's requirements, your end will undoubtedly be very miserable!
Feeling Xu Zhaojie's eyes on him, Fang She knew that this matter might not be his choice. He sighed secretly in his heart and then bowed and said:
"Thank you very much, Lord Marquis, for your trust in me. I will do my best to repay the kindness of Lord Marquis..."
Listening to what Fang She said, Xu Zhaojie nodded slightly and then ordered:
"Fang Snake, after you take office, you will once again clean up the Coordination Office strongholds in Huainan. I don't want to hear the voices of the Coordination Office carrying out assassinations and sabotage in Huainan again!"
As soon as these words came out, Fang Snake secretly thought that it was indeed the case, and then he couldn't help but feel helpless!
As an intelligence officer, he could vaguely sense the infiltration of the Zhennan Army by the Coordination Office, which could even be traced back to when Xu Zhaojie raised troops in Anqing. With the development of the Zhennan Army, there were many people behind the scenes of the Coordination Office. , already hold high positions in the Zhennan Army, and even the core senior officials of the Zhennan Army may be people from the Coordination Office.
It is because of these people who act as internal agents that the previous purges carried out by Qianhuwei failed to achieve the desired results. Now that the Coordination Office has hooked up with those big families, they will undoubtedly become more difficult to deal with. , now that the Zhennan Army's control of the situation in Huainan is becoming increasingly unstable, it will be difficult to completely stop the unified coordination office!
Although he was helpless, under Xu Zhaojie's gaze, Fang She still nodded and said:
"I understand! I will start preparations when I get back!"
Seeing Fang She accepted the job, Xu Zhaojie finally showed a smile on his face and said:
"This task is very difficult for others!"
"But I know how powerful you are, Fang Snake. I believe you can succeed. I'm waiting for you to have a good rest!"
Listening to Xu Zhaojie's words, Fang She smiled bitterly in her heart but still couldn't help but say:
"I am determined to fulfill my mission!"
After giving some details and expressing his support for Fang She, Xu Zhaojie asked Fang She to leave... ····
After Fang She left, Xu Zhaojie was left alone in the room again. Feeling a little tired, Xu Zhaojie slowly lay back on the hospital bed, and then thought of the decision he had just made. In this room with no one else, Xu Zhaojie In the movie, Xu Zhaojie's originally handsome face gradually turned ferocious due to anger, with a cannibalistic light flashing in his eyes!
Ye Mingsheng's treacherous plan is really vicious. Even though he knows his methods now, he still has to hold his nose and follow his ideas obediently!
It was like being slapped in front of Ye Mingsheng several times, and he couldn't even fight back. It was extremely frustrating and humiliating!
Xu Zhaojie knew very well that if he only pursued orders from the Coordination Office, some people within the Zhennan Army would be disappointed, and might even turn away from him. After all, he, Xu Zhaojie, ruled the Zhennan Army, and he ruled Huainan with iron-blooded skills and fierceness. With high-pressure policies and a strong and domineering appearance, everyone is afraid of themselves!
Now facing the provocation of these big families, he has not made a proper response, which means that his prestige has declined. He is no longer as feared as before, and this will have many consequences. The Zhennan Army Internal problems will only have minimal consequences!
Next, after realizing that they chose to retreat and remain silent, these big families will inevitably push their limits, and the reforms that they dream of implementing like Ye Mingsheng will most likely end in vain... ·············
All this makes Xu Zhaojie feel like a knife is twisting his heart, but for the sake of the overall situation, he must endure such pain and silently lick his wounds like a wolf!
At this moment, Xu Zhaojie wanted to kill all the big families like he did before, and let everyone know the price of angering him with blood and corpses!
But Xu Zhaojie knew that he couldn't do this. He knew that Ye Mingsheng was waiting for him to do this!
The reason why these big families dared to unite with the General Coordination Bureau to provoke themselves like this is that they were already prepared to fall out with themselves. As long as they suppressed it forcefully, the civil war in Huainan would be inevitable, and the Zhennan Army had just conquered it more than two months ago. They had just suffered a disastrous defeat in Hebei and Henan. Tens of thousands of veteran elites were either killed or captured by the Fengwu Army!
Therefore, most of the current Zhennan Army officers are recruits who have just joined the army. Although Xu Zhaojie has consciously accelerated the training of these recruits, these recruits are still far from being comparable to the previous elite veterans. Therefore, once the Huainan Civil War breaks out, Zhennan Army will The Confederate army simply couldn't rely on these new recruits to quickly suppress the rebellion!
The inability to quickly suppress the rebellion gave the Fengwu Army time to intervene. The Fengwu Army's First Army, which had the best equipment and the strongest combat effectiveness, was watching with eager eyes in Fengqiu. Once they were given the opportunity to sneak in like this, They will definitely not let go of the opportunity. By then, it will really be doomed...
So Xu Zhaojie knows that he must endure it at this time, he must endure it!
Even if the teeth are knocked out, they still have to be swallowed!
Although these big families are now colluding with the Coordination Office, Xu Zhaojie can detect their tangled psychology. They are colluding with the Coordination Office just to check and balance themselves, and they do not really want to welcome the Fengwu Army into Huainan and let Ye Mingsheng This bastard rules Huainan!
After all, although Xu Zhaojie himself imitated the Fengwu Army in implementing reforms and wanted to enhance the strength of the Zhennan Army, Xu Zhaojie also knew that his control over Huainan was far less than Ye Mingsheng's control over the Fengwu Army's territory, so in order to avoid some As a result, he also consciously removed some and weakened some measures that seriously harmed the interests of the gentry.
But even this caused a strong backlash from these families, and once the more domineering and powerful Ye Mingsheng was allowed to rule Huainan, measures such as land redemption, public-private partnership, and strengthening industry supervision were implemented, which would not be good news for these big families. , so unless they have no last resort, they will not want the Huainan surnamed Ye...
Therefore, Xu Zhaojie also hopes that he can take a step back temporarily in exchange for reconciliation with these big families and buy himself precious time!
Qian Huwei's spies in Yi Jing have discovered that Ye Mingsheng is preparing to counterattack Yunbin, which will greatly restrict the strength of the Fengwu Army. Therefore, unless there is a particularly good opportunity in Huainan, the Fengwu Army will not go south to attack Huainan. , Therefore, Xu Zhaojie must make good use of this time, take good care of his body, and train his troops, and when the time is right, he will wipe out all these families!
Only in this way can he have a chance to compete with Ye Mingsheng. Otherwise, if this continues, the gap between him and Ye Mingsheng will become wider and wider sooner or later.
The first priority now is to take good care of his body. The reason why Xu Zhaojie secretly sees a doctor and recuperates is because he knows that his physical condition affects the whole body. As expected, he has not shown up for a few days, and the families and generals under his command have begun to find various people. There are various reasons to see myself and want to explore my physical condition.
If I don't come forward to intimidate him, I'm afraid the people's hearts will really break up, and something irreversible may happen... ············

Yijing, Governor's Mansion
The warm sunshine in the afternoon shines on people, making people feel warm. In the back garden, Ye Mingsheng is holding Murong Qingwu's hand and walking slowly on the corridor of the back courtyard. Admire the flowers and plants in the back garden and enjoy the rare quiet time.
During this period, as Murong Qingwu's belly got bigger and bigger, her pregnancy reactions became more and more serious. Now it has developed to the point where she feels sick and wants to vomit when she smells a bit of fishy smell. She eats more than half of the food every day. All spit it out!
Because the Fengwu Army was preparing for Yunbing's counterattack during this period, even though Ye Mingsheng knew that Murong Qingwu's life was very difficult during this period, he did not spare much time to accompany Murong Qingwu.
This also made Ye Mingsheng feel a little guilty for her, so today Ye Mingsheng deliberately declined some meetings and summons to spend time with Murong Qingwu to make up for it.
Ye Mingsheng originally thought that Murong Qingwu, who had such a severe pregnancy reaction, would complain to him like everyone else, telling how difficult this period was and how much he suffered every day. An Miaoyi, Pei Zhixiu, Bai Yuanyuan and others did this before. Did. ,
Therefore, Ye Mingsheng also prepared in advance how to comfort Murong Qingwu and promised Murong Qingwu to give birth to the child... ······
But what Ye Mingsheng never expected was that Murong Qingwu did not complain at all, but happily told him about the surprise of being pregnant with the fruit of their love, the touching feeling of having life in her belly, and the future. Expectations for children are always positive things!
To be honest, Murong Qingwu's unusual behavior made Ye Mingsheng, who was already ready to provide emotional value, feel more guilty towards her, feeling that he had not shouldered the responsibilities of a husband and a father. !
"Mr. sir, what do you want our child to be called?" Murong Qingwu said with some longing as she snuggled into Ye Mingsheng's arms:
Hearing this, Ye Mingsheng caressed Murong Qingwu's belly and said with a smile:
"I have already thought about it. If it is a boy, it will be called Ye Jingxuan, and if it is a girl, it will be called Ye Tiantian!"
Hearing what Ye Mingsheng said, Murong Qingwu blinked her beautiful eyes and asked Ye Mingsheng narrowly:
"My husband, Jingxuan, is a good name, but why is the girl called Ye Tiantian?"
"Is it possible that my husband, you had a sweetheart named Tiantian before?"
