Chapter 628 Two Kings Fight for One Prefecture
Big Dog brought the freshly-made pancakes soon.
Yan Huaiwen ate his meal while listening to the waiter talking about the border troops and the militia clearing out the northern barbarians.
It was slower than he expected.
He said calmly: "Point to their current location."
Yan Yu immediately circled a spot on the map.
Yan Huaiwen took a look and said: "General Xue has his own little thoughts. He is looking forward to the chaos in Xizhou and then making another great achievement."
Yan Yu understood it clearly after thinking about it.
"So, General Xue has been dawdling for this reason, and has been hovering around the edge of Xizhou recently?" She then asked, "Uncle, will Xizhou... be in chaos?"
"The opportunity is fleeting." Yan Huaiwen curled his lips slightly: "Now that the Beirong has been eliminated, Guanzhou is no longer constrained, and the Guanzhou army has won a new victory. It is the time of vigor. King Qi has missed it."
"Guanzhou borders Xizhou, but it is in a tiger's nest, and the army is still there."
"Gufeng is separated from Xizhou by Leshan. If King Qi moves, he will be besieged by the two prefectures. Even if Leshan Prefecture is not good, it can still rely on the advantages of the mountain terrain to deal with it for a while. When the court sends troops, Xizhou will not get any benefits."
It is necessary to plan everything before starting a rebellion.
In the previous life, if the disaster in Qishan Prefecture had not been so severe that the court was exhausted from dealing with it, and if Guanzhou had not been defeated in the battle with Beirong, the prince of King Ying would have died, the Guanzhou army would have suffered heavy casualties, and King Ying would have been heartbroken and unable to recover, and the King of Qi would not have taken advantage of the chaos to rise up.
It really took the court a lot of effort to deal with King Qi.
If the Guanzhou soldiers were by his side, King Qi would not dare to attack the capital directly.
The prefectures along the way would not have been harmed by the war.
"Uncle, we encountered several groups of spies from Xizhou, and they came to us one after another." Yan Yu remembered this and hurried to report to her uncle.
Yan Huaiwen stared at her for a while, gradually smiled, and asked: "But have you dealt with it?"
"Yeah!" Yan Yu nodded repeatedly, and couldn't help raising her voice: "Then can they come whenever they want? Hehe, they must stay!"
Yan Huaiwen didn't ask where they stayed.
Yan Yu would not take the initiative to mention it.
"No one has reported back yet. The King of Qi must have noticed it. He has been urging me to meet the prince." Yan Huaiwen said calmly.
"Uncle, are you going tomorrow? Can you take me with you?" Yan Yu's eyes sparkled, and her face was full of expectation.
"How can you bring auxiliary soldiers with you when the three kings meet?" Yan Huaiwen smiled slightly, "And it's a kid who pretends to be an auxiliary soldier!"
Yan Yu: ...
Damn, miscalculated!
Just thinking about being able to mix in the military camp, forgetting that the auxiliary soldiers are not good enough. The King of England has to pay more attention to the pomp and circumstance, right? He has elite soldiers and generals but doesn't take them with him, but takes the auxiliary soldiers with him? It's too outrageous.
Yan Yu was a little depressed.
But he soon cheered up again.
"Uncle, can you go?"
Yan Huaiwen nodded with a smile.
Then he saw his little second son's little head suddenly turned to Kang Er, and his bright eyes rolled around.
…
The King of Wu did not settle in Leshan Prefecture.
Instead, he chose a county government office that was closest to Guanzhou Prefecture and Xizhou Prefecture.
The King of Wu went to Guanzhou and Xizhou in advance and went through all the etiquette.
The King of Ying and the King of Qi also tacitly agreed to bring only one thousand elite soldiers each.
This thousand people is a fictitious number.
In fact, there are less than one thousand, about seven or eight hundred people.
In addition to the subordinates of the two prefectures, as well as the attendants and guards, etc., it is more than one thousand at most.
Yan Huaiwen is now a first-class staff.
It is a refined thing to serve first-class guests in the mansion, and the nobles like it.
The Yingwang Mansion did not have it before. It was not that the Yingwang was unwilling to follow the crowd. One is that the mansion is... tight, and the other is that it is difficult to find talented people in Guanzhou who can make him willing to serve.
To put it bluntly, no one is worth his money.
And Yan Huaiwen, the Yingwang is really willing.
The two of them had a long talk several times in the past few days, and the King of England benefited a lot.
Regarding the dispute with Xizhou, although he was not sure about it, he had a plan to deal with it.
At this time, the King of England was full of confidence.
He was not good at arguing, and was often bullied by his younger brothers for being dull when he was young.
This time, he was really confident and felt that he could turn the tables.
The King of England had been sitting in the car for a long time, and his legs were a little sore, so he changed his posture.
He lifted the curtain and looked out, and saw that he had entered the county town. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Please ask Mr. Yan to come over."
...
The prince sent someone to find him. Yan Yu thought it was the same as before, just a few words and back in a moment. Unexpectedly, until they arrived at the place and the team stopped, she saw her uncle get off the prince's carriage and stand on one side.
Yan Yu:...
This treatment, a top-level staff member.
She would think so, and I think others would think so too.
Yan Yu was entangled.
Should I follow?
She hasn't shown up in front of the prince yet.
If she goes, she will be exposed.
She can't bear not to go!
This is such a rare meeting.
Not to mention meeting three princes at once.
The theme is so clear.
Two princes fight for one mansion!
The word "fight" is full of gunpowder.
Yan Yu gritted her teeth, but finally couldn't suppress her curiosity.
She jumped off the car neatly, bent down, and slipped to the front.
She looked for the right time, ran for a while, and approached her uncle.
She whispered: "Sir, your hand warmer."
Yan Huaiwen took it, with a faint expression, and nodded slightly to her.
Then she turned her gaze back, looked forward, and followed the King of England a few steps behind him.
Yan Yu was excited.
Her steps became brisk.
The guards beside the King of England saw her, their eyelids trembled, and they whispered to the King of England quickly.
The King of England resisted the urge to look back, and continued to walk into the county government office without making a sound.
"My brother, you have worked hard on the way." The King of Wu greeted him with a smile.
The King of Qi was also polite and considerate, and he looked like he had not seen each other for a long time and missed him very much.
Before the three kings sat down, they started to reminisce about the past and mentioned the old stories of the royal family. They looked very close to each other and laughed constantly.
"Why don't you see the nephew? The last time he came to Xizhou, I was very happy to see him! The nephew's heroic demeanor makes me envious. My useless son is really far behind him." The King of Qi sighed.
"My brother, you are too modest. Your son is praised all over the capital..."
King Wu praised him and praised the son of King Ying again.
In short, the atmosphere was very harmonious.
King Ying set out early in the morning and it was almost noon.
King Wu would have to host a banquet.
Although it was a temporary residence, all the necessary utensils were prepared, which showed that he had put a lot of effort into it.
Yan Huaiwen sat at the last seat, whispering with his neighbors from time to time, expressing his status, drinking tea instead of wine, and toasting frequently.
Yan Yu, the little book boy, was very busy. Not only did he have to keep refilling the cup for his uncle, but he also had to pick out the dishes that his uncle liked and quickly pick up a few chopsticks. His little ears had to be kept erected to listen to the movements of the prince... (End of this chapter)
