Jamel Xiao paused, his eyes moved slightly, "Why?"

It is not strange to go to Jinye. There is usually a lot of preparation before a war. In addition to the information collected by spies in the enemy's country, it is normal for the coach to want to make an unannounced visit in person.

The strange thing is that since His Highness intends to give Yu Wenke the opportunity to lead the army, why does he need to go there again?

Yu Wenjue raised his eyelashes slightly: "With the bravery of Zhou soldiers, why did the battle with Qi still last for a year?"

Gongsun Xu stared silently.

Xiao Jingnan was involved in the battle with Qi from beginning to end. He had a general understanding of the strength, weapons, food, grass and clothing of the two armies.

Xiao Jingnan said: "Qi State was originally very prosperous and had a large population. Although it encountered disasters the year before last, it carried out frequent disaster relief operations, and many resettlement methods were effective. It had begun to recover at the beginning of the year, and the Great Zhou Dynasty was located in Guanzhong, so What is inherited is only the remnant power of the old Wei Dynasty, and compared with Qi Dynasty, it appears to be poor and barren."

Gongsun Xu nodded in agreement.

"In addition, although Mr. Qi is addicted to alcohol, sex, and crazy behavior, he is not completely stupid. In addition, there are--" Xiao Jingnan hesitated for a moment, but omitted Lu Xiu's name and only said, "There are also people like Lu Huai and Zhao Yan and many other generals are not mediocre and incompetent people on paper, and are not easy to deal with in battle."

Gongsun Xu slowly lowered his eyes as he listened. They had this consideration in mind when they planned to frame Lu Huai.

As Xiao Jingnan spoke, he did not forget to observe Yu Wenjue's face, but saw that his expression was indifferent, his eyes were calm, and he seemed to have no grudges about the past in his heart.

Now, he admires His Highness from the bottom of his heart, but along with this admiration, comes another kind of fear.

Yu Wenjue's expression was indifferent: "Your Majesty is right. Although Qi is a blessed land, the soldiers and civilians lack food and clothing. During the war, some even lacked enough food."

Xiao Jingnan didn't know that he had also seen the soldiers of the Qi army looking pretty.

Yu Wenjue was silent for a moment and said: "At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Xianbei nobles were the core force of Qi State, but gradually corruption and bad behavior became common. The descendants of the nobles were also happy to get something for nothing and enjoy the gains. Now they are even more confident. The more they are like this, the more It aroused dissatisfaction among the Han people, and the Han and Xianbei had long-standing grievances. In addition, the internal fighting among the royal family has never stopped, which will only intensify self-depletion. What can we do even if we have excellent soldiers? If there is serious internal fighting, how can we work together to defend ourselves against the outside world? We cannot protect ourselves. How to protect others?”

After he finished speaking, he lowered his eyelashes, picked up the tea cup in front of him, and sipped it leisurely.

Gongsun Xu raised his eyes and glanced at the deserted person, feeling resentful.

Your Highness is right, they will only love each other.

If not, their plan would not succeed. How could His Highness be sitting here?

Xiao Jingnan sighed secretly, His Highness knew the inside of Qi Qi very well. If he led the troops to go on an expedition, it would be overwhelming, but now it is a pity to give up leading troops to attack Qi in order to consolidate the power in the rear!

But having said that, why go to Jinye?

He vaguely caught a glimmer of possibility: "So Your Highness is going to Jinye——"

The corner of Yu Wenjue's mouth moved: "Since Yu Wenke wants to lead the army, then I will give him this opportunity to play as a forward."

Xiao Jingnan suddenly understood that he had to deploy what should be deployed without fighting for temporary gains.

So he said that although he wouldn't go, Xiao Jingnan had to go.

Xiao Jingnan nodded solemnly: "Your Highness, don't worry."

As long as he goes on the expedition with Yu Wenke, he will be within control.

Once Yu Wenke leaves the capital and is stuck on the battlefield, why isn't it a good opportunity to clean up the rear?

Xiao Jingnan thought for a while and then said: "The weather is cold now and His Highness is injured, so there is no need to rush to set off. Spring can come in time."

Yu Wenjue smiled: "I'm not in a hurry, but some people are. If I show that I'm not in a hurry, he won't believe it."

Xiao Jingnan knew in his heart that Yu Wenke sent people to watch what was going on here every day.

Gongsun Xu said: "I don't know who your Highness is going to take away from the capital. I know Qi Qi better and am willing to accompany Your Highness."

Xiao Jingnan disagreed: "Master Gongsun should stay, but I should go."

Yu Wenjue shook his head gently: "Just take Dr. Chen with you."

Gongsun Xu thought about it and nodded in agreement. The Lord indeed needed them more here.

Xiao Jingnan was surprised: "Master Gongsun may not go, but I have to go. I will go to the battlefield after the new year. This time I will go to have a deeper understanding and prepare in advance."

Yu Wenjue's eyes were deep and he said leisurely: "Yu Wenke is really talented. He is not brave or foolhardy as he appears on the outside, but he is a good opponent."

Xiao Jingnan and Gongsun Xu looked at each other, convinced.

If it hadn't been for Yu Wenqi's coup, everyone would have been deceived by Yu Wenke. He usually looks tall and round, and speaks loudly. They think he is a reckless man who can only use force, but in fact He is good at disguise and very cunning.

Yu Wenjue glanced at Xiao Jingnan and said thoughtfully: "Compared to the battlefield, following the prince after leaving the capital is really dangerous."

This is not an alarmist statement.

Nowadays, no one knows about the relationship between Yin Yue Mansion and Yu Wenjue.

There was no Yu Wenjue in the past, and the Xiao family of Yin Yue Mansion was at best neutral in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Not counting Yu Wenke's enemies, he even wanted to win over him. But now the Xiao family is siding with Yu Wenjue, and Yu Wenjue is a loyal royalist. , and also designed to kill his brother Yu Wenqi. How could Yu Wenke not hate him to the core?

Mrs. Xiao also became a thorn in the flesh.

Who can guarantee that Yu Wenke will not attack him during the battle?

Yu Wenjue said slowly: "The prince only had to choose to support King Qi under the orders of Marquis Jingning. If you have conflicts with King Qi privately, that's fine. After all, King Qi refuses to marry."

His voice was cold and gentle, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he moved his eyes to look at the window lattice.

Xiao Jingnan was stunned for a moment, his eyes fixed on Yu Wenjue's face. Was he supposed to be pretending? In this way, Yu Wenke must have some temptation, but he will not be cruel.

Therefore, it would be better for him not to go.

Xiao Jinnan's eyes turned to Gongsun Xu again, and he nodded in agreement.

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Jingnan said: "I heard from my sister-in-law that the person who saved His Highness in time that day was not the imperial doctor Ling, but another doctor with superb medical skills. My sister-in-law is warm-hearted. After learning about this, she wanted to find this person. He is a doctor and persuades him to come to Zhou and continue to serve His Highness."

Xiao Jingnan said, his eyes locked on Yu Wenjue, not wanting to leave anything behind.

"Your Highness is going to Qi Qi this time. Do you want to go there to find this doctor? Or bring this doctor to Luo'an?"

Gongsun Xu was surprised. He didn't expect that these things could be kept secret for a lifetime, but it shouldn't be made known to everyone now.

This will do His Highness no good.

Gongsun Xu frowned, feeling vaguely uneasy. This matter was indeed poorly thought out.

He glanced at Yu Wenjue, smiled at Xiao Jingnan and said: "I was also there that day, but I was just an ordinary military doctor. There was nothing special about it. The best thing is that it was handled in time. The key is that the imperial doctor rejuvenated the master's hands. Why don't you go back and explain to Madam Xiao? ."

The exchange of glances was meaningful.

Everyone will understand some hidden dangers if you give them a little reminder.

Xiao Jingnan didn't want to get to the bottom of it. What His Highness just said had already dispelled some of his previous suspicions.

What's more, after he finished speaking and asking, the face in front of him was calm.

Lu Xiu may be affected by the past events, but Yu Wenjue will not.

Therefore, he is just Yu Wenjue.
