Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain

"Your Highness is here today not just to show off to Princess Changning, right?" Wu Zixu smiled teasingly and said, "But what do you have to explain?"

"Now a large number of Xiongnu troops have gathered at the border. If our Chu army enters at this time, it will inevitably cause conflict among the Xiongnu people. Even if we win, we will not be able to achieve our goal of subduing the Xiongnu."

"The best way is to cause internal conflicts among the Xiongnu." Xie Yan said, turning his eyes to Wu Zixu, "Now there are two people in power in the Xiongnu, one is the eldest prince Yu Wenxu, and the other is the fourth prince Yu Wenzheng. "

"In your opinion, which of these two people is most likely to inherit the throne?"

"Yu Wenzheng is stupid and short-sighted. He will definitely not be able to defeat Yu Wenxu. However, if His Highness wants Yu Wenzheng to sit on the throne, his subordinates will have ways to get rid of Yu Wenxu."

"No need." Xie Yan shook his head, "Yuwen Tuo is the best candidate, and I will bring him into the royal city this time."

Hearing this, Wu Zixu suddenly raised his head with a look of shock on his face: "Your Highness is so courageous."

"If war breaks out, the people will suffer. Now in the royal city, the Xiongnu nobles and the royal family stay up all night drinking and having fun, but the ordinary people of the Xiongnu cannot even afford salt."

"There must have been resentment among the Xiongnu people."

"Alas!" Wu Zixu sighed heavily, "More than just public anger, the lives of these people in the royal city are much better than those in other cities."

"But in other cities of the Xiongnu, countless people die of illness every year due to lack of salt. If this continues, there will definitely be resentment."

"In Zixu's opinion, is now a good time to promote Yuwen Tuo to the position?"

"Yuwentuo's reputation is not very good among the Huns." Wu Zixu smiled bitterly, "Everyone on the streets is calling him a traitor. Now pushing him to the top will only make people think that he has indeed surrendered to the enemy and treason. "

Xie Yan's thin lips curved into a sarcastic arc: "It doesn't matter, as long as a person with a worse reputation appears, he will naturally attract everyone's attention."

When Wu Zixu heard this, he raised his head in surprise and looked at Xie Yan: "Your Highness wants to..."

"Yu Wenzheng's actions are absurd, so it's best to use him as a shield." Xie Yan slowly wrote a few words on the table with wine.

Seeing this, Wu Zixu's expression became visibly excited, and his eyes shone with a strange light.

"This subordinate will do it."

"Zixu, you must be careful when doing things." Xie Yan warned him before leaving.

Wu Zixu drank all the wine in the flask, with a drunken flush on his face. He bowed solemnly to the thank you banquet, and then stumbled out of the private room.

The moment Wu Zixu opened the door, Xie Yan's figure disappeared from the private room.

The people watching outside watched Wu Zixu, and when they saw Wu Zixu leaving, they quickly followed him.

……

At that time, in the Huyan family's clan.

"Chief, the eldest prince has sent someone again."

The guard's face was full of distress, and he knelt on one knee in front of the Huyan clan leader.

"Looking at that man's extremely tough attitude, look...are we going to meet or not?"

"Of course he's gone." Chief Huyan sneered, "My son was driven to the border by him and died in the hands of the Chu army. Do you still want me to be grateful to him?"

"But..." the guard hesitated, "I'm afraid they're going to be tough today!"

"So what?" Patriarch Huyan slammed the table: "Do they still have the guts to kill me?"

"My son died at the border. Who lied about the king's order and tricked him into leaving? It was Yu Wenxu and Ye Luhan! They did such a despicable thing, and they actually want me to work for them! It's really ridiculous!" When the head of the Huyan family said this, the anger in his heart could no longer be controlled.

Under the shocked and uneasy eyes of the guards, he grabbed the big knife on the wooden stand and walked outside with murderous intent.

Seeing the appearance of Patriarch Huyan, the guard became worried and hurriedly followed him. He also advised: "Chief, there are informants everywhere around our clan. If you take action, the royal court will be in trouble." You have an excuse to attack us!"

Hearing this, the Huyan patriarch sneered: "I still have more than 1 people, am I still afraid of them?"

Having said this, he continued to move forward, and the murderous intent gradually appeared on his face.

The members of the Huyan family who hurried over after hearing the commotion here, but after hearing what the leader of the Huyan family said, none of them objected.

"What the patriarch said is absolutely true! We in the Huyan family are never afraid of death! They have done all the scandalous things and even threw dirty water on the second prince. When we are no longer of use, they will definitely abandon us!"

There was a lot of discussion and excitement among the people, and they all followed the leader of the Huyan clan.

Yelu Han, who was at the door, heard the noisy footsteps inside, his eyes tightened suddenly, and he immediately led the people back to a place ten feet away from the door.

The next moment, where he stood, sharp arrows penetrated deeply into the masonry on the ground, which clearly showed the murderous intention of the person using the arrows.

"Hu Yanwen, do you want to rebel?" Yelv coldly scolded.

The door was opened, and Hu Yanwen's burly figure appeared in front of Yelu Han. Each member of the Huyan family was burlier than the other, and just two people blocked the door tightly.

Hu Yanwen stared at Yeluhan with a feeling of oppression.

"My Huyan family is loyal to the Khan, but you excluded dissidents and deceived my son Huyanliang to the border, causing my son to die in the hands of the Chu people!"

"Even if I rebel, I was forced by you and Yu Wenxu!"

"Shut up!" Yelu Han scolded sternly, "How can you call Khan by his name?"

"What kind of khan is Yu Wenxu?" Hu Yanwen sneered, "Did he get the approval of the high priest? I forgot, the high priest and the khan were both killed by Yu Wenxu, how could anyone help him with divination? ?”

Yeluhan's face turned pale when he heard Hu Yanwen's disrespectful words: "Hu Yanwen, how dare you slander the Khan!"

"I said, without the approval of the high priest, he is not a khan!" Hu Yanwen also scolded him back with a livid face, "If you really want to convince me, find the high priest and let him The high priest performs divination! Let’s see if he is the real Khan of our Huns!”

"As long as the hexagram shows yes, then I, Hu Yanwen, will lead tens of thousands of people in the Huyan family to bow their heads and submit to me! If not! Then you are the sinners of killing your father and killing your king!"

Every time Hu Yanwen said a word, Yeluhan's face turned gloomy.

He naturally wanted to find the high priest, but the high priest was greedy for life and feared death. When there was any movement in the royal court, he secretly escaped and his whereabouts have not been found so far.

Externally, he could only declare that the high priest was dead, lest someone would take advantage of this matter.

But I didn't expect that the high priest who no one else dared to mention was directly mentioned by Hu Yanwen today, and he said it in front of so many people!

The Huns believe in the moon god, and every Khan must be asked by the high priest to inquire about heaven and earth. If you look into it carefully, Yu Wenxu's appointment as Khan is indeed unfair.

Seeing Yeluhan's expression suddenly turn cold, Hu Yanwen smiled coldly again: "General Yeluhan, please continue talking!"

"Who doesn't know the things you and Yu Wenxu did secretly!" He shouted loudly, "Maybe it was because you and Yu Wenxu killed the king and the father, which led to the punishment of the Moon God! The land by the Moon Sea Not a blade of grass grows, and even the state of Chu took this opportunity to invade the Xiongnu!"

"When the Khan was in power, had there ever been such an aggrieved situation?" Hu Yanwen looked extremely excited when he spoke, his eyes staring at Yeluhan with a sarcastic smile.

Yelu Han's face was ugly, and he squeezed his hands tightly. No matter how ugly Hu Yanwen's words were, he could not really kill Hu Yanwen.

The other Hun nobles are still watching!If he touches Hu Yanwen today, a large number of nobles will defect to Yu Wenzheng tomorrow!This was not a scene he and Yu Wenxu wanted to see.

Yelu Han took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said word by word: "Clan Huyan has a deep misunderstanding of Khan. After I find the high priest, I will definitely clear Khan's name. By then, Huyan Patriarch, please don’t forget your promise today!”

"This is natural!" Hu Yanwen raised his chin and responded immediately, "But the high priest must be alive!"

Yeluhan was choked by Hu Yanwen's words and fell silent. Finally, he looked at Hu Yanwen with a sinister look and left angrily.

The moment Yelu Han left, the archers standing on the wall preparing to release arrows also retracted their arrows, and secretly Yelu Han also retracted their weapons at this time.

The confrontation ended, but they both understood that this matter was far from over!

After closing the door, Hu Yanwen's face darkened.

"Where is the high priest?" Hu Yanwen asked the guards around him through gritted teeth.

The guard was Hu Yanwen's confidant. Hearing this, he was stunned, and then quickly replied: "The high priest's stab wound was too serious. Although he has been treated, he is still in a coma."

"It's been almost two months and you still haven't woken up?"

"Chief, you also know our medical skills. It is not easy to save the life of the high priest, let alone bring the high priest back from hell." The guard said helplessly, "If we can invite famous doctors from Chu State, maybe we can There are ways."

"Are famous doctors from Chu State so easy to hire? Unless you send someone to kidnap them!" Hu Yanwen said angrily.

The guard scratched his head and whispered: "Or secretly transport the high priest to Chu State? There are many famous doctors in Chu State, and they will definitely be able to rescue the high priest."

"He only has one breath left. I'm afraid he will die as soon as he steps out of this door before being carried to Chu State." Hu Yanwen was very upset.

The high priest fled to the Huyan family when the royal city suddenly changed that day. When he saw that the high priest was covered with injuries, he realized that something was wrong with the royal court.

It was precisely because of the arrival of the high priest that he did not let the private soldiers of the Huyan family go to the royal court to rescue him. In this way, he accidentally saved the private soldiers of the family.

Otherwise, the Huyan family would have been executed by Yu Wenxu on charges of treason just like the third and fifth princes’ mother clan!

Originally, Hu Yanwen was counting on the high priest to expose Yu Wenxu and Yelu Han's conspiracy, but who knew that the high priest was seriously injured and has been in a coma until now.

Thinking about this, the wrinkles between his brows became visibly deeper.

How to be good?

"Did you use all the ginseng?"

"I've used it all." The guard sighed, "But no results can be seen at all. In the past two months, the high priest has not even seen his eyelids move."

Hu Yanwen had a sullen face, his burly figure elongated under the moonlight. After a moment, he said: "Take out all the good medicinal materials and hang them first. We can't let him die like this."

The medicine spent on the high priest amounted to several thousand taels of silver. The Huyan family's annual income was only more than 1 taels of silver. If it were wasted on a dead man, he would be so angry that he would spit out his old blood. .

The guard nodded submissively, but after a while, an idea suddenly appeared in his mind, and he subconsciously called Hu Yanwen.

"Patriarch, my subordinates have heard in the past few days that a man from Chu with a very good family background has come to the royal city. He will be treated with a lot of salt whenever he makes a move. Even Yelu Han is very polite to this man from Chu."

"Do you think such a noble Chu person would always have a doctor with him?"

Hearing this, Hu Yanwen stopped in his tracks.

His eyes flickered and he stared at the guard and said, "Go and inquire and see how his relationship with Yelu Han is."
