Qin Wangfu.
In the study room, a man dressed as a commoner was returning to Xiao Huang. He was originally Xiao Huang's personal soldier, and he was ordered by Xiao Huang to be responsible for tracking Xiao Jie's every move every day.
But when Xiao Huang heard that the driver of the Zhou family took the drunk Zhou Yan back to the Zhou mansion overnight, he still couldn't help showing a trace of disappointment and regret on his face.
It would be fine if Zhou Yan really stayed in Qi Palace for one night. Once the emperor knew about it, even if he trusted Xiao Jie, he would inevitably feel jealous and suspicious of this son.
But after fighting with his younger brother for so long, he also knew that Xiao Jie couldn't do such a stupid thing.
However, the deputy general Wang Sheng on the side didn't think so, stepped forward and whispered: "Your Highness, I think we can use this to make a fuss. After all, King Qi first wins over General Gao Yang of the Left Jinwu Guard, and now with General Zhou Yan of the Right Jinwu Guard. There are close contacts, and there are some plots to control the imperial army, and there are suspicions of misconduct, if the emperor knows about this, I am afraid that he will also have a suspicion in Qi Wang's heart."
Xiao Huang shook his head, frowned and said: "Qilin Wei Su has always had eyes and hands, and King Qi dared to associate with Zhou Yan so blatantly, do you really think that Father would not know about this matter? Let's see what the King of Qi intends to do. If we do not have enough evidence to say that the King of Qi is plotting to control the imperial army and has evil intentions, we will cause trouble for ourselves, and even be accused of alienating the father and son of the Tian family, or even frame the prince. Ten of your heads are not enough to drop."
Wang Sheng was at a loss for words for a while, and said with shame on his face, "Your Highness has taught you a very good lesson, it's because your subordinates are thinking shallowly."
Xiao Huang smiled, patted Wang Sheng's shoulder lightly, and said in relief: "Wang Sheng, you are my most trusted subordinate, and I also hope to give you a good future in the future, but you have to remember one thing, do The most important thing for those who matter is that they must stay calm, so as to avoid making many unnecessary mistakes. The reason why the royal party did not fall so quickly is because they can't calm down, and they rush to the forefront whenever there is any trouble in the court. That's why I fell into Xiao Jie's trap again and again, and repeatedly let my father seize the opportunity to put myself in a disadvantageous position."
"What Your Highness said is true, I understand." Wang Sheng only felt his nose a little sour, and his eyes were slightly red.
He thought that the most correct decision he made in his life was to betray the royal family and join the King of Qin, otherwise his current fate would be similar to those officials of the royal party who have been demoted again and again.
Xiao Huang smiled, then changed the topic and asked back: "By the way, what happened to the matter I asked you to send someone to investigate?"
Although Xiao Huang didn't say it clearly, Wang Sheng still knew what Xiao Huang asked, so he waved his hand and ordered the other people in the study to retreat, and then whispered: "Your Highness guessed right, I sent people to follow Li Jin and Xu Guang and Xu Guang searched for months, and they found out that they were secretly connected with the Qilin Guard in Liangzhou."
Xiao Huang sneered coldly: "Sure enough, as I expected, the five of them went to Beijing together for trial that day, Wang Tu was executed by Ling Chi, Zhang Kui and Xu Li died inexplicably, only the two of them survived, I will Guess they must have betrayed Wang Cheng and defected to the court."
"Your Highness, since this is the case, should we release some news to Wang Cheng to remind him to be careful about Li Jin and Xu Guang?" Wang Sheng was also secretly worried. Li Jin and Xu Guang are Wang Cheng's most important Trusted confidantes, if even they secretly surrendered to the imperial court, I am afraid that the day of Wang Cheng's downfall will not be far away.
Wang Sheng didn't care about Wang Cheng's life or death, but as Xiao Huang's lieutenant general, he naturally knew that Xiao Huang's intention was to completely control the 30 Liangzhou army in Wang Cheng's hands. As long as he holds a heavy army, he is enough to fight against Xiao Jie.Even once the emperor dies, Xiao Huang can immediately send his troops eastward to attack Luoyang, pull Xiao Jie from the throne, and seize the land of Daning.
However, if Wang Cheng is seized by the imperial court halfway, it will be hard to say who will end up with the Northwest Army. Therefore, before Xiao Huang cannibalize the 30 Liangzhou army, Wang Sheng naturally does not want Wang Cheng to have an accident, so as not to damage Xiao Huang. Juan's event.
Xiao Huang shook his head and said with a smile: "You have to understand, if we tell Wang Cheng about Li Jin and Xu Guang's defection to the court, Wang Cheng will definitely find a way to get rid of the two of them. I'm afraid it will be more tense, Wang Cheng will hold on to the military power in his hands even more tightly, and it will be even more difficult for me to intervene at that time."
Having said that, Wang Sheng still looked a little hesitant: "Your Highness is naturally reasonable, but..."
"I'm just worried that Li Jin and Xu Guang will be unfavorable to Wang Cheng, right?" Xiao Huang smiled lightly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but playful, "But have you ever thought about why Li Jin and Xu Guang betrayed Wang Cheng and took refuge in the court? At that time, the king of Qi caught their weakness and made them obediently let him be at his mercy. In this case, why don't we follow the example of King Qi and seize the weakness of the two of them, and let them fall to me secretly, at the most critical moment Give me a hand every now and then.”
Wang Sheng was convinced: "Your Highness is wise, but how do we know what the weakness of the two of them is?"
Xiao Huang sneered: "I don't need to know what their weakness is, the betrayal of Wang Cheng is their excuse, if the Wang family knows about it, not only will the Wang family not let them go, they will not let their family members go Yes. If I threaten them with this matter, for the safety of themselves and their families, they can only obediently listen to me."
Wang Sheng bowed again: "Your Highness is far-sighted, and your subordinates are too late to flatter you."
Xiao Huang smiled and said: "Don't flatter, you go and prepare a generous gift for me, I'm going to visit Li's residence tomorrow."
Wang Sheng couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, he was a little puzzled and said: "Forgive me for taking the liberty, I don't know why Your Highness is going to Li's house?"
Xiao Huang smiled slightly and said: "No matter what happens, I will go to the Three Treasures Hall. I went to Li's Mansion to propose marriage."
Wang Sheng was stunned again: "Who does your Highness want to marry from the Li family?"
Xiao Huang still smiled: "I heard that Li Rong's younger brother, Li Lu, has a daughter named Li Wan, who is twenty-eight years old, has not yet left the court, and is waiting for her boudoir. I want to accept her as a side concubine."
Before Wang Sheng went to Xiao Huang, he had been living in Luoyang, and he knew a lot about the big and small things in the capital. In his impression, he had never heard of a young lady in the Li family who was so beautiful, but why did His Highness suddenly want to accept one? What about Li Lu's daughter as a side concubine?
As if anticipating Wang Sheng's confusion, Xiao Huang took the initiative to explain with a smile: "Actually, I have never met this young lady of the Li family, and I chose her as a side concubine not because of her beauty, but because I wanted to get married with the Li family." , to gain the Li family's support for me."
Wang Sheng was even more puzzled: "I understand what your highness means, but now that the Li family has fallen, why doesn't your highness try to win over other families, but instead try to win over a declining Li family."
The corner of Xiao Huang's mouth curled into a smile: "It's true that the Li family has lost power in the court, but don't forget that in Liangzhou, the Li family in Longxi is still the number one family, and they hold a lot of land and money in Liangzhou. Xiao Jie really inherited the Daning country... At that time, I will not be able to do without the support of the Li family. Besides, Li Rong lost power because of Xiao Jie, so he naturally hated Xiao Jie to the core. Marriage with me is the reason for their Li family to turn around and return to court best chance."
Wang Sheng had to admire Xiao Huang's foresight, but he still had a worry in his heart: "Your Highness, it's good to accept Miss Li's family as a side concubine, but I'm worried that the Wang family, especially Wang Cheng, will be dissatisfied because of this, and I'm even more worried about the concubine's side. ..."
Xiao Huang sneered coldly: "Do you think I still need to look at the faces of the Wang family? Even if Wang Cheng asks, I will show my interests to him, and he will naturally understand my intentions. As for Yu'er, I will explain it to her well, and I think she will understand me."
The words have come to this point, Wang Sheng couldn't say anything more, and then he left to prepare a gift for Xiao Huang to visit tomorrow.
As soon as Wang Sheng left, the smile on Xiao Huang's face also gradually disappeared, and he fell into deep thought.
He still couldn't figure out why Xiao Jie kept in touch with Zhou Yan at such a sensitive moment, and what was the mystery behind it.
In the study room, a man dressed as a commoner was returning to Xiao Huang. He was originally Xiao Huang's personal soldier, and he was ordered by Xiao Huang to be responsible for tracking Xiao Jie's every move every day.
