Huan Xiaozhuo never appeared again.
Just when I was worried about her safety, she asked someone to send me a letter.
The letter should have been written long ago, and the date it was signed was three days ago, which was the day of the palace change.
The letter did not mention much, but only asked me to protect Xuan Ying's safety.
I couldn't help but frown.
It seems that Huan Xiaozhuo and Xuan Ying have known each other for a long time, but why did they act like strangers before?
What kind of secrets are hidden between them?
Five days later, Jiao Zhenqi led 50,000 soldiers to arrive in Yandu safely.
This time, a total of 80,000 troops were sent, and the other 30,000 soldiers stayed at Tiechi City to control the situation in the northern border of Yan State.
I summoned everyone to Lu's residence, firstly to provide support for Jiao Qiqi and his party, and secondly to discuss ways to deal with Xia Shutai's army.
Gao Guangyuan and Xu Wuchen sat together for the first time.
Although Xu Wuchen and he were ministers in the same palace again, his contempt for Gao Guangyuan was still obvious.
It seemed that he and Gao Guangyuan would not relax in his lifetime.
I first introduced them to each other one by one.
After everyone exchanged greetings, they welcomed me to the table.
I picked up the wine glass and said, "Tonight's banquet is mainly to welcome General Jiao.
Of course, it also has another purpose, which is for everyone to sit together and discuss how to deal with Xiahou Nutai's army."
The most important reason why I invited Gao Guangyuan and Xu Wuchen was to integrate them into my political group as soon as possible and let them feel my trust in them.
I looked at Gao Guangyuan with a smile: "Master Gao has been paying attention to the movements of Xiahou Nutai's army these days.
It's up to you to introduce the situation.
Gao Guangyuan's eyes showed gratitude.
He said respectfully: "Prince, these things have always been done by Quanzi, and it should be more clear and clear for him to describe it.
Everyone looked at Gao Han, who was at the bottom of the table.
Gao Han stood up and said: "Your Highness, Xiahou Nutai led a total of 100,000 Yan troops to conquer South Korea.
There was no real large-scale conflict during the period, and the casualties were almost negligible.
After the death of King Yan, Xiahou Nutai attacked In order to do justice for heaven and conquer rebellion, the Zhongxing royal family marched towards Yandu."
He paused before saying: " Their army advanced a hundred miles north on the first day, and nearly 5,000 soldiers fled on that day.
Starting from the second day, Xiahou Nutai slowed down his march, and in the next four days they only moved north.
After advancing 200 miles, another 7,000 soldiers escaped within these four days, so their actual strength is now only about 88,000.
I smiled and said: "Xiahou Nutai is still two days away from us.
When he comes to Yandu, I'm afraid he will only have 80,000 people at his disposal.
Gao Han said: "Now that King Yan has passed away, these 80,000 soldiers have long been in panic.
I'm afraid not even half of them are really willing to work for Xiahou Nutai.
Wolf Thorn laughed loudly and said: "So, we are sure to win."
Jiao Zhenqi shook his head and said: "I have collected some information about Xiahou Nutai during this period.
This person is by no means a person with a false reputation.
He slowed down his march deliberately.
Since we can think of things , he must also be able to think that in addition to slowing down the pace to control the land in the southern part of Yan State, another possibility is to wait for reinforcements from South Korea.
Gao Han said: "General Jiao is right.
The Korean army has begun to gather on a large scale at the border of Yan and Han.
The number is about 150,000.
However, there is no sign that they have entered the territory of Yan for the time being, and they may still be waiting and watching."
I frowned and said, "That is to say.
Once we fight Xiahou Nutai, South Korea's backup troops will most likely rush into the Yan Kingdom like lightning, and Xiahou Nutai's 100,000 troops will become the vanguard.
Gao Han nodded and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is right, so what we need to face is not just Xiahou Nutai's 100,000 troops, the real threat comes from South Korea's 150,000 troops.

From the past two days, Xiahou Nutai Judging from the advancement of the Tai army, his speed is getting slower and slower, and he should be waiting for reinforcements from South Korea."
Che Hao said: "Why don't we use blitzkrieg to deal with Xiahou Nutai's army."
Jiao Zhenqi shook his head and said: "It's okay to defend the city with our troops.
If we take the initiative, wouldn't we be playing into Xiahou Nutai's plan?"
Xu Wuchen, who had never spoken, said: "The best plan now is to force Xiahou Nutai to speed up the march and put a distance between him and the Korean team."
Gao Han said with a smile: "Everyone understands what Mr.
Xu said, but how can we deceive this old fox Xiahou Nutai?"
His father and son had always been at odds with Xu Wuchen, so there was a hint of ridicule in his words.
Xu Wuchen has not yet spoken.
Gao Guangyuan was the first to answer: "I have an idea.
Xiahou Nutai's mother and wife are in our hands.
I have already controlled the families of several of his main generals.
As long as we use this to blackmail them, there will be no worries."
There will be no civil strife among them.
If necessary, we can kill their relatives to anger these generals and disturb their minds.
I secretly laughed in my heart.
Gao Guangyuan was best at three methods like this.
I had expected that he would bring this up, and sure enough he did so in front of everyone.
He was indeed conscientious in his role as a traitor.
But having him saves me a lot of effort, and I can leave all these despicable and dirty things to him. " Xu Wuchen smiled disdainfully and said: "Xiahou Nutai has never had any love for his married wife.
As early as when he was in Yandu, he often beat and scolded him.
His mother is not his biological mother, but his father's third concubine. , do you think Xiahou Nutai will care about their lives?"
Gao Guangyuan smiled awkwardly, because with me on the side, he had left Xu Wuchen a bit short-tempered.
If it had been in the past, he would have had a big quarrel with Xu Wuchen.
Gao Han's self-cultivation was far inferior to that of his father.
He said loudly: "Master Xu must have some extraordinary ideas.
Why don't you say it and let everyone listen?"
Gao Guangyuan scolded: "You bastard, you have no right to speak here, why don't you get out of here."
I smiled and said, "Why is Mr.
Gao so harsh on him?
I also want to hear Mr.
Xu's thoughts."
In fact, when Xu Wuchen said those words just now, I had already suggested that he might have a way to defeat the enemy.
Xu Wuchen said: "Xiahou Nutai has a true love in his life."
When he said this, he deliberately glanced at Gao Guangyuan.
Gao Guangyuan blurted out: "You are talking about Gu Xianxian" Xu Wuchen said noncommittally: "Xianxian's position in Xiahou Nutai's heart is much more important than that of his wife and mother.
However, Xiahou Nutai is rough on the surface, but he is very meticulous in what he does secretly."
Gao Guangyuan said: "That Gu Xianxian is just a singing girl.
Xiahou Nutai treats her as a plaything at most, how can he cherish her?"
Xu Wuchen smiled and said: "Master Gao doesn't seem to have much patience.
I haven't finished speaking yet."
Gao Guangyuan closed his mouth nonchalantly.
Xu Wuchen said: "Three years ago, Xiahou Nutai lingered in Xianyu Tower all day long, and what he did that day was the singer Gu Xianxian."
I nodded.
It was not a magical thing for a general to be obsessed with a geisha.

This incident alone could not determine that Gu Xianxian was the most important in Xiahou Nutai's heart.
Xu Wuchen said: "One thing happened later, which made me know that no one can replace Xiahou Nutai's feelings for Gu Xianxian."
He looked at Gao Guangyuan and said: "Master Gao, do you remember what happened on the King's birthday three years ago?
matter" Gao Guangyuan nodded and said: "Of course I remember that that day I celebrated the king's birthday and specially invited twenty singing girls from Xianyu Tower to perform dances.
Unexpectedly, the second prince fell in love with Gu Xianxian and made fun of her.
Xia Hou was furious.
Tai turned against the second prince on the spot and fought with swords."
Xu Wuchen said with a smile: "Master Gao remembers it clearly, but after that birthday feast, another thing happened.
The second prince led his people to make trouble in Xianyu Tower, trying to snatch Gu Xianxian into the palace."
Gao Guangyuan obviously didn't know about this, he frowned and fell silent.
Xu Wuchen said: "Xiahou Nutai arrived at Xianyu Tower in time, and the two parties clashed fiercely.
I was serving as the governor of Yandu at the time, and this matter was under my jurisdiction."
Everyone's eyes were on Xu Wuchen, and everyone felt that the relationship between Xiahou Nutai and Gu Xianxian was unusual. " Xu Wuchen said: "Xia Hou Nutai's love for Gu Xianxian is beyond words, but Gu Xianxian is as cold as ice to Xia Hou Nutai.
I investigated in many ways, and it was not until the end that I found out that Xia Hou Nutai was not greedy for Gu Xianxian's beauty."
He paused and said: "They are basically father and daughter.
Gu Xianxian is the daughter of Xiahou Nutai and a prostitute."
I was attracted by the story of Yi En, and whispered: "But why did Xiahou Nutai let his daughter fall into prostitution?"
Xu Wuchen smiled and said: "Xiahou Nutai only found out the whereabouts of this daughter later.
He once had two sons, but they died on the battlefield one after another.
Now he only has such a biological flesh and blood.
You said, Gu Xianxian is here What position does he want to occupy in his heart?"
Gao Guangyuan and I looked at each other, and we both showed understanding expressions.
Xu Wuchen's move was indeed exquisite, but it was also despicable.
It seemed that there was no clear boundary between treacherous ministers and loyal ministers.
Gao Guangyuan said: "Master Xu means to use Gu Xianxian to threaten Xiahou Nutai."
Xu Wuchen shook his head and said: "Even if you threaten Xiahou Nutai, what can you do?
If you kill Gu Xianxian, Xiahou Nutai will speed up the advance with his army in grief and anger.
The mourning soldiers may not be able to win, but when the two sides fight, we The loss must be huge.”
Gao Guangyuan said in confusion: "Does Master Xu still want Gu Xianxian to persuade Xiahou Nutai to surrender?"
Xu Wuchen said: "Although Gu Xianxian plays an important role in Xiahou Nutai's heart, she alone is not enough to make Xiahou Nutai surrender."
Jiao Zhenqi said: "Master Xu means to do some work within the army."
Xu Wuchen nodded and said: "These soldiers have already lost their spirit in the successive defeats in the Yan-Han War.
Attacking Yandu is not everyone's wish.
What's more, as some people said, most of the generals' families are In Yandu, they have to be cautious, which lays the foundation for us to divide Xiahou Nutai's army from within. " There was a look of disdain on Gao Han's face, probably because he thought Xu Wuchen was just like that and was just carrying forward his father's suggestions.
Xu Wuchen said: "South Korea has still not sent reinforcements.
On the other hand, it shows that they are still in a wait-and-see state.
King Mo Anqian of Han is suspicious by nature.
We can start from now on and let people speak in front of him to slander Xia Hounu.
Tai made a secret alliance with us, and this time he wanted to lure the Korean army deeper and take the opportunity to catch them all. " Gao Guangyuan objected: "There has been collusion between Xiahou Nutai and King Han for a long time.
How can their relationship be easily instigated by us?"
Xu Wuchen said: "If we say this, King Han will naturally not believe it, but if it is said by his favorite minister Guan Tongyu, he will definitely believe it."
Gao Guangyuan's eyes lit up and he whispered: "Guan Tongyu is greedy for money by nature.
As long as he spends more money, he will do anything."
Xu Wuchen said: "Does Master Gao already have a suitable candidate?"
Gao Guangyuan said: "Zhao Ziyue, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, is a classmate and friend of Guan Tongyu.

If he can lobby, this matter can be easily accomplished."
Xu Wuchen said: "We can assume that Guan Tongyu has a plan in mind for the time being.
The most critical issue now is Gu Xianxian."
He paused and said: "If we can persuade Gu Xianxian to switch to our camp, we can then combine her and The relationship between Xiahou and Nutai was revealed to King Han.
The job is done.
With the suspicious character of the King of Han, he must have thought that Xiahou Nutai was trying to lure them.
If the Han army did not move, Xiahou Nutai would be in an isolated and helpless situation, even if he did not surrender to us and his group of generals.
The soldiers will also flee."
I secretly praised Xu Wuchen's mind-attacking skills, and I couldn't help but secretly rejoice that Xu Wuchen was finally used by me.
If he is in my hostile camp, it will be a huge trouble for me.
I smiled and said, "What kind of woman is Gu Xianxian?"
Gao Guangyuan said: "She is a noble and aloof person.
Although she is surrounded by dust and dust, it is difficult to escape the mud without being stained.
She is a strange woman."
I smiled and said: "A woman who can be so highly praised by Master Gao must be extraordinary.
I would like to see it with my own eyes."
Looking for flowers and willows has always been my strength.
In addition, Xu Wuchen and Gao Guangyuan's praise of Gu Xianxian has already aroused my curiosity.
This time I happened to go to Xianyu Tower under the guise of serving the country and the people.
Gao Guangyuan personally guided me.
Now Gao Guangyuan's status in the hearts of Yandu people seems to have surpassed that of the new King Yan.
Liu Yanniang, the boss of Xianyu Tower, personally welcomed him outside the gate.
Liu Yanniang is bloated and obese.
It is said that she was once a famous prostitute in the Yan Kingdom, but now there is no trace of grace on her face, which is covered with thick makeup.
I can't help but lament the ruthlessness of time.
Perhaps it was not long after the assassination of King Yan Li Zhaoji that the business of Xianyu Tower was extremely slow.
Except for Gao Guangyuan and I, there were no other customers.
Liu Yanniang said delicately: "I didn't know that Mr.
Gao was here, and I missed your welcome.
I hope you will forgive me."
Gao Guangyuan nodded and said, "This is my good friend Mr.
Jiao.
He made a special trip to visit Gu Xianxian today."
When Liu Yanniang heard Gu Xianxian's name, her expression suddenly changed, and she whispered: "I'm afraid Yanniang will disappoint you two.
Miss Xianxian has become a free woman six months ago, and she has been suffering from colds recently."
Gao Guangyuan sneered: "Boss Liu, won't you give me Gao Mou this thin noodle?"
Liu Yanniang was so frightened that she lost her mind and said, "Master Gao, please calm down.
Yanniang only spoke truthfully and did not mean to shirk."
I smiled and said, "Boss Liu, don't worry.
I came here specifically to visit Miss Xianxian.
You just need to convey it to us.
If she doesn't want to see me, I won't force you."
Liu Yanniang still seemed a little hesitant.
I winked at Gao Guangyuan, and Gao Guangyuan handed the two thousand taels of silver notes that he had prepared in advance into Yanniang's hands.
Liu Yanniang dared not accept it and said evasively: "Master Gao, you must not do this.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Yan Mom will need to be taken care of by Master Gao from now on.
I definitely can’t accept your money.
Since Mr.
Long is so sincere, I will try my best to be scolded by Miss Xianxian and convey your wishes to her. " She asked the maid to pour tea for us, then turned and walked towards the backyard.
Although the little maid was young, she knew how to seduce people: "She made all kinds of seductive gestures to seduce me.
I guess it was because she was exposed to the fireworks here.
After a while, Liu Yanniang came back to us with a smile on her face.
Seeing her expression, I thought things must have gone smoothly.
Liu Yanniang said: "Miss Xianxian agreed to see Mr.
Long, but" she looked at Gao Guangyuan and said, "but she only let Mr.
Long in alone."
Gao Guangyuan said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Gu Xianxian's airs were quite big."
Liu Yanniang was good at observing words and emotions, and she was afraid that Gao Guangyuan would be angry with her, so she whispered: "Yanniang will immediately call the red card girl from Xianyu Tower to accompany Master Gao."
Gao Guangyuan smiled and shook his head and said: "You make me a pot of good tea, and I will wait for you here."
Liu Yanniang looked at me, with a look of awe in her eyes.
The person who could make Gao Guangyuan wait patiently was certainly not an ordinary person.
A woman like her is good at figuring out the identity of the guests, and she probably guessed who I was.
Liu Yanniang personally guided me.
The backyard of Xianyu Tower is extremely elegantly decorated, with rows of bamboos and green grass.
Although it is still early spring, the place is already full of spring.
There is a strange Taihu stone in the middle of the garden.
There is a pond under the stone, with colorful koi swimming back and forth in it.
Around the Taihu stone, at the end of the road ahead, there is a corner of a small building with red eaves and green tiles.
Hidden among the green trees, it is a pleasant sight.
Liu Yanniang said: "Although Miss Xianxian is already free, she has no relatives in Yandu, so she lives with me temporarily."
I nodded.
During the conversation, we had already arrived in front of the small building.
Two maids in yellow short skirts were standing in front of the door with smiles.
They were both beautiful and completely different from the maids I met in Xianyu Tower just now.
Can't find any smell of dust.
Liu Yanniang said: "Old man, I can only send you here.
Miss Xianxian is waiting for you up there."
A rather ambiguous smile appeared on her face, and she must equate me with other clients in her heart.
I was secretly amused, this time it was to retreat Xiahou Nutai’s army.
There has never been such a high-sounding reason.
When we arrived at the third-floor soft pavilion, a tall maid pointed at the curtain and I smiled at her.
The maid was extremely shy and her pretty face turned red with embarrassment.
It's so cute to hang your head.
Walking into the curtain, I saw a young girl sitting on the railing with her back turned, overlooking the scenery in the garden.
Her black hair flowed like a waterfall on her curvy shoulders.
She was wearing a pink dress and a white skirt belt. , the exquisite curves of her delicate body are vaguely visible.
This hazy and soft color makes her entire back become extremely gentle, and her snow-white pink neck becomes more and more fatally attractive.
A smile appeared on my lips.
From her position, she could see the whole garden clearly.
It seemed that she had been observing me for a long time.

Gu Xianxian did not turn around and said softly: "Since Your Highness is here, why do you have to hide your identity?"
Her voice was like an oriole out of the valley, extremely sweet and gentle, and Oma's skillful entrance touched my heart just right. .
This woman is indeed extraordinary, and her first sentence revealed her identity to me. " I smiled and said, "Have Miss Xianxian seen me?"
Gu Xianxian said calmly: "Gao Guangyuan has great power in the government and the public.
Even Li Guotai, the king of Yan, will not take it seriously.
The only person who can let Gao Guangyuan personally accompany him is Long Yinkong, the prince of Dakang.
Such a simple Anyone can think of it."
She turned around slowly, although I had.
I was mentally prepared enough, but I was still shocked by her temperament.
What really attracted me to Gu Xianxian was her temperament.
Her pretty face combined two completely different feelings of innocence and charm.
I have never been attracted to any woman.
Seeing the harmonious unity of the two, Gu Xianxian is just an exception.
Gu Xianxian smiled and said: "Is there anything abnormal on Xianxian's face?
Or is my vulgar appearance frightening the prince?"
I chuckled and said, "Yinkong has long been prepared to be amazed, but he still didn't expect that girl Xianxian's beauty is so stunning."
I sat down opposite Gu Xianxian unceremoniously, sometimes facing me Beautiful women also need courage.
Most men do not have the psychological quality like me, and this courage is precisely one of the reasons why I attract so many beautiful women.
Gu Xianxian smiled and said: "The prince is very good at making women happy.
No wonder others say that all the beauties in the world will be captured by the prince."
I smiled and said, "Miss Xianxian, are you ready for this?"
Gu Xianxian said calmly: "Xianxian is now free.
Should I interpret the prince's words as teasing?"
I burst out laughing.
Gu Xianxian said: "What is the prince's purpose?
Just tell him."
I didn't expect Gu Xianxian to be such a smart woman.
It always takes a lot of effort to talk to such a woman.
I did not state my intention directly, but asked with a smile: "Since Miss Xianxian has easily guessed my identity, she must also have guessed my purpose, why don't you tell me and listen."
Gu Xianxian seemed to have unintentionally gathered her wind-blown hair, and her long sleeves slipped down with the movement, revealing her snow-white and crystal-clear arms.
I couldn't help but jump in my heart.
If I could enjoy her crystal-clear clothes, it would be a piece of clothing.
What a blessing.
Gu Xianxian said softly: "Xianxian is just an ordinary woman, and she was just a geisha by birth.
There are many beauties around the prince, so he probably didn't come here specifically for Xianxian."
I nodded noncommittally.
Gu Xianxian said: "Kang's army has arrived in Yandu.
Although the new king of Yan has ascended the throne, the country has long existed in name only.
In other words, the place where Yandu is located is actually in the hands of the prince."
I laughed.
Gu Xianxian said: "I heard that Xiahou Nutai led an army of 100,000 people back from the Korean border and prepared to attack Yandu.
If Xianxian guessed correctly, the prince came here for this matter."
I nodded and said, "Miss Xianxian is right, Yinkong is here just for this matter."
Gu Xianxian's eyes turned cold and said: "The prince's intelligence skills are indeed excellent, but it's a pity that Xianxian has no reason to help you."
I smiled and said: "How can Miss Xianxian be willing to help me?
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
If you have any conditions, you can tell Yinkong clearly."
Gu Xianxian sighed and said, "You must have found out that Xiahou Nutai is my biological father, and you want to use his feelings for me to persuade him to surrender."
I said frankly: "Yinkong does have such thoughts."
Gu Xianxian said: "Do you know who I hate the most in the world?"
She said loudly: "The person I hate the most in the world is Xiahou Nutai.
If it hadn't been for his betrayal, my mother would not have died in depression.
His What does life and death have to do with me?”
She stared at me and said: "I am from the Yan State.
It is you who have single-handedly caused the current situation of the Yan State.
In fact, Xianxian has become a person who has subjugated the country.
Do you think I will help you to convince your enemies?
The war between you is starting again with me."
What does it matter?
If you fight to the death, maybe I will become happy in my heart."
I laughed: "Miss Xianxian doesn't seem to have such thoughts in her heart."
Gu Xianxian raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "How can you know what's on my mind?"
I smiled and said: "Although Yinkong cannot see through Miss Xianxian's thoughts, I know that if Miss Xianxian really has such thoughts, she will not see me at all.
Since you are willing to meet an enemy who wants to destroy your country, I am afraid that not only Just out of curiosity, Miss Xianxian may be concerned about General Xiahou, or she may have an unusual interest in me, Long Yinkong."
Gu Xianxian smiled and said: "The prince's self-confidence seems to be very high.
Not every woman will fall in love with you
