I Xiaoxiong

Chapter 356 Strategist
With Zhang Zhixun's few words, he made a rough guess about the imperial court's deployment in the southwest direction.

And these are just what he analyzed based on the battle reports of Shannan Liangdao.

Wu Yaoshi heard these assertions that could not be verified yet, but he already believed them. After all, what Zhang Zhixun said in the past had something to say, almost as expected.

But for the Southwest War situation, Liaodong can actually do not much, and most of the time it can only sit on the sidelines.

After all, although the imperial court is not strictly guarding against Yan Fan now, it has always been careful. If it wants to reach out to the southwest in secret, neither the Imperial City Secretary nor the Xiuyiwei is a vegetarian.

"If it's true that the Marquis of Wu'an returns to Beijing as you said, can you make some noise in Shuzhong?"

A sudden thought by Wu Yaoshi made Zhang Zhixun fall into deep thought.

After a while, he shook his head: "It's very difficult. The middle of Shu is now largely stable. Although Marquis Wu'an has been in the middle of Shu for less than a year, his prestige is great. The Qingtang people have been beaten so badly that they will not be able to compete with the Jin Dynasty in a few years." Fighting for the front, as for people like Hongliandao, there must be no room for them to move around in Shu, the imperial court's strategy of fortifying the wall and clearing the country is enough to deal with these rogues, and those big clans in Shu will probably be beaten by Marquis Wu'an."

Pharmacist Wu didn't show any regretful expression, just a look of understanding, and then said with a smile: "Every day I think about making everyone feel uneasy, if there is a destiny, I am afraid that my virtue will not be able to achieve any great things, right?"

Zhang Zhixun also smiled after hearing this, "Who can say for sure about destiny? Those heroes who fought for the world in history, who didn't do dirty things? Could it be that fighting for the world depends on virtue?"

"Hahahaha, that makes sense. Didn't the Great Grandpa say that too?"

The two sat on the steps, but their words were extremely careless. After talking about laughing, Wu Yaoshi stood up and patted the dust on his body, and then said to Zhang Zhixun: "How about it, come with me to meet this His Royal Highness King Qi? After all, he is also your uncle's uncle."

Zhang Zhixun smiled when he heard the words: "It's good to meet you, let's see how magnanimous this Prince Qi is."

After all, Wu Yaoshi brought Zhang Zhixun into the inner hall together, and King Qi was talking to Princess Heyang, but the topic changed from the previous slanderous remarks to the family's internal affairs and old affairs.

"Meet His Royal Highness King Qi"

"Your Highness, this is Zhang Zhixun, a man from Hebei Province, who is also my sister-in-law. Since today is a family banquet, I will ask him to visit His Highness as well."

Zhao Yuanzhang saw that Zhang Zhixun was a good-looking talent, with extraordinary looks and demeanor, and he responded with a smile: "Since we are all from our own family, let's sit down and talk together. I also took the liberty to visit today, but since we are here with Mr. It’s up to the Lord, and there’s no need to be formal.”

After Zhang Zhixun handed over his hand and thanked him, he also took the opportunity to sit down.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Naturally, the bustle of King Yan's mansion here cannot be hidden from some people's eyes and ears.

Soon, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who was playing chess in the East Palace received the news from the Imperial City Secretary that King Qi went to Lurenfang and entered the Palace of King Yan.

Zhao Yuantan put a black chess piece on the board, and asked without raising his head, "Is it only King Qi?"

"Returning to Your Highness, yes, just now His Highness King Qi went straight to Lurenfang after he left the palace, but it didn't seem to be going to Yan Wang's Mansion at first, but there was a carriage frame honor guard of His Highness Qi Wang's mansion at the Yan Wang Mansion. Afterwards, Princess Heyang and Prince Wu opened the middle door to welcome guests."

"Hahaha, Yuan Qian must have been going to your house, but he went to Yan Wang's mansion by accident."

After Zhao Yuantan finished listening, he smiled and said to the person who played against him.

Sitting opposite is a young man, wearing a brocade robe, with a handsome face and a refined demeanor. It is Fu Huaichuan, the eldest son of the British prince.

"Although it may be a coincidence, His Royal Highness Qi and Yan Palace have a relationship with His Royal Highness Heyang after all, so we should be more careful."

Fu Huaichuan slowly dropped the chess piece, but the words in his mouth were slightly fluttering.

Zhao Yuantan frowned after hearing this, but he didn't know whether it was because of the chess game or the opponent's words, but he relaxed again soon.

"It's a bit of a headache, but at least he doesn't dare to get too close to Yan Wang's mansion, otherwise, even if Gu can tolerate him, His Majesty will not tolerate him."

Zhao Yuantan didn't have too many scruples when talking to Fu Huaichuan. Although the friendship between the two was not as good as that of Saburo, they were old acquaintances.

Moreover, Fu Huaichuan is a guest of the crown prince, and he ranks extremely high among the officials of the Eastern Palace.

In addition, his intelligence is superb, so whenever Zhao Yuantan has unresolved matters, he will ask him to discuss with Lin Changyuan and others.

In his spare time, he would also be recruited to play a game of chess.

Moreover, Fu Huaichuan is also the eldest son of the Duke of England, the Duke of the Duke who will be hereditary in the future, and he can be regarded as a representative of the Wu Xun lineage in the East Palace.

Therefore, Zhao Yuantan also attaches great importance to his statements and suggestions.

"Okay, you go back and tell Chengyang, just say that Gu knows about it."

Gao Jingang, who lowered his head and didn't dare to show his air, felt relieved, and immediately responded, "Yes, this servant will leave."

After the eunuch who delivered the letter for Princess Chengyang left, Fu Huaichuan suggested, "Your Highness, King Qi is not just a potential helper from Liaodong."

Zhao Yuantan immediately understood what the other party meant after hearing it.

"You mean the Golden Horde in the Northern Territory? That's right, after all, Princess Qi is the princess of the Golden Horde Khanate. But Yuan Leng"

In fact, he just wanted to say that Yuan Li's behavior should not be so.But when I turned my head and thought about it, this kind of thing can't be pinned on human morality at all.

The meaning of the Emperor Daojun is obvious. He wants Zhao Yuanzhang to make more contributions and accumulate some fame. When the crown prince is in power in the future, he can use Zhao Yuanzhang to represent the clan to balance the Wu Xun lineage headed by the Fu family and avoid a single family. big.

Zhao Yuanzhang himself can be regarded as brave and decisive, and he can be regarded as outstanding among the princes.

But his relationship with Liaodong and the Northern Territory is too close. With these relationships, if he wants to compete for reserves, it is absolutely impossible.

And Zhao Yuantan also has the confidence to be able to restrain himself as the third brother, but there are some things that must be guarded against.

"What advice does Huaichuan have?"

"I don't dare to advise you, but Your Highness, you not only have only one brother, there is also a lot of talents in the clan."

After hearing what Fu Huaichuan said, Zhao Yuantan also felt relieved.

Because the advice given to him by the other party was not for him to take the opportunity to suppress King Qi, or fight for power for Wu Xun's lineage, at least he didn't have too much selfishness.

If Fu Huaichuan showed too much selfishness, Zhao Yuantan would also have a headache.

As for the suggestion, Zhao Yuantan naturally thought about it.

"Since Yuan Li went to Shannan Road with the British Duke, there is still a need for people in Sichuan. What does Huaichuan think of Fu Bai? Can he be the deputy envoy of Jiedu?"

"Guanzhong is in the hands of King Yong, and Fu Bai is a general under Saburo. He is familiar with the staff of the Jiefu. It is not suitable. He should be transferred back to Shangjing."

"Then is there anyone in Huaichuan?"

"Gaoyang County King."

"Sixth?"

The king of Gaoyang County, the sixth prince Zhao Yuanying, the prince and his mother and brother.
