Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 786: Having a backing can gather people’s hearts

"My lord will have an heir, this is a big deal!"

The first one to get the exact news was of course the spy chief Su Liao. He was originally dealing with intelligence about surrounding forces, but after hearing the news, he stopped what he was doing, stood up excitedly, and walked back and forth in the room.

As a capable subordinate and confidant, Tong Hai stood on the side, looking at the performance of his immediate boss, and couldn't help but be a little confused, but such a long period of experience not only allowed him to be reused, but also gained a certain level of authority, so he did not ask any questions. Voice.

However, Su Liao noticed Tong Hai's expression and smiled: "Looking at you, you seem to have doubts in your mind?"

Now that he was asked, Tong Hai did not hide it, nodded and said: "I don't understand a little bit. It is a good thing for the prince to have an heir, but I heard that there is a risk of premature birth, and there is danger..."

"You don't understand," Su Liao waved his hand and sat on the chair with dignity. After taking charge of the secret service department for so long, he has completely different characteristics from the former staff who failed in the Taipu Mansion. Calm, "Many people, including myself, hope that my lord will have an heir sooner rather than later. Although premature birth is quite dangerous, in the past six months, my lord and several Taoist and medical experts have also There are many prescriptions and equipment that can not only prevent miscarriage, but also stabilize labor, so the problem should not be big."

Tong Hai nodded: "So that's the case, but why are you so eager? What's the difference between sooner and later? After all, although Fujun is now General Zhengbei, he still has to return to the center sooner or later, which is in Daijunpu No matter how big the stall is..."

"The difference is huge," Su Liao interrupted directly before his subordinates could finish speaking, "Now that things have happened, do you still think that Mr. Fu wants to return to the center as soon as possible?"

"Isn't it?" Tong Hai was stunned for a moment. A vague thought in his heart was inspired by these words, but he was not sure yet. He just said: "A high-class person like Mr. Rufu, at such a young age, As a fifth-grade man, and with such achievements in the border areas, he will be ranked in the imperial class when he returns to the center, and his future is boundless."

"That's the past," Su Liao couldn't help but sigh as he spoke, "The high-ranking people in the past were, of course, herding guards outside the country. They accumulated qualifications and achievements, and returned to the court as a way to advance. The problem is that in the current court, The situation above is not very good. Several clans are vying for power. I heard that even the Holy Master sometimes can't get a word in. It's also difficult for the high-ranking princes to do anything, so it's okay not to go. In fact, I had the same idea as you at first. I thought that Mr. Fu came to the north with the intention of gathering merit, but seeing his current layout, it doesn't seem like it anymore. Maybe he has Wang Jun's thoughts."

Tong Hai was surprised again: "With Wang Jun's thoughts, isn't that just cutting..."

"This is not necessarily a bad thing!" Su Liao narrowed his eyes and looked at the subordinates in front of him coldly. He suddenly said this, of course, not on a whim, but after observing for a long time, he felt that Tong Hai was a trustworthy person. He took the opportunity to test him, "There is chaos in Jizhou right now, unrest on the frontier, and injustice in the DPRK. If the frontier falls into the hands of someone like Wang Jun, it will be dangerous!"

Tong Hai reacted immediately, nodded in agreement, and said repeatedly: "This is reasonable, this is reasonable." Cold sweat was already dripping from his forehead.

Su Liao nodded with satisfaction and said: "The Lord now has the general's order in his hand. He can conquer and defend himself, and reward and punish himself. The building of the palace is right in front of him. We are all in it. This is the team. If How can one calm people's hearts without having any heirs? The Hu tribe needs a son of Shanyu to be safe, let alone conquering the Northern General's Mansion?"

Tong Hai nodded again.

Su Liao then changed the topic: "However, not everyone is happy to hear such good news from the Lord. There will be waves in the city these days, and many people and things hidden under the water will inevitably surface. You have to pay more attention and go first Let’s make some arrangements.”

Tong Hai said yes and left. When he walked out of the room, he found that his back was soaked with sweat. He couldn't help but feel scared when he recalled the previous scene.

He had been following Su Liao for a while, and he knew how ruthless this seemingly peaceful man was. In order to maintain Chen Zhi's authority and authority, he would do anything. If he had answered anything wrong just now, he might have to do anything. He was on Su Liao's blacklist and his fate was dire.Then, he breathed a sigh of relief and began to arrange manpower.

Soon, spies from the Secret Service took action one by one, and soon they were scattered all over Dai County, almost arriving with the news.

………………

"Chen Zhi's wife is about to give birth?" Zaosong, who had just met Wang Qian, frowned immediately after hearing the news, "This is not good news. This Chen Zhi has great ambitions. Unlike other children from aristocratic families, he just comes here." Plating gold, gaining qualifications and returning to the court to fight for power, this person seems to want to run the frontier..."

At this point, he fell silent again, because he thought that he was in Dai County and might be monitored everywhere. It was not easy to say this nonsense, but Zaosong knew very well in his heart that he would follow the spies of the Youzhou Army to investigate. , that Chen Zhi even had the ambition to seize Youzhou, which can be said to be a personal problem for Wang Jun.

In fact, this is normal. Zao Song knows very well that if Chen Zhi is unwilling to submit to Wang Jun and become a pawn of Youzhou, it will be a situation of retreat if he does not advance. If he does not want to go further to gain greater power, he can only be slowed down. Slowly compressed, eventually the tree fell and dispersed.

And once Chen Zhi's heir is born, the framework he has set up now will immediately become more compact and united, and it can be regarded as completely stabilized. The threat to Wang Jun will rise in a straight line, even surpassing the hostility outside the pass and the court and China. Hidden danger.

"Since this happened, no matter what, we have to express ourselves. Maybe this is also an opportunity to take advantage of!" After thinking about it, Zaosong immediately made a decision, "This is also the best time to meet Chen Zhi. The excuse is that we just need to wait for a few days. I think Chen Zhi must be staying at the house every step of the way these days..."

With this in mind, he stood up eagerly, came to the table to write a letter, and called someone to send it to Jixian as soon as possible.

As soon as the people left, Zaosong sat for a while and suddenly stood up again.

"No, I have to see Wang Chong again."

On the other side, the major aristocratic families in the city were also excited at the same time. Naturally, everyone in the family had different hearts and had their own joys and sorrows, which were ignored.

But it was said that in the Chen family house, Chen Zhi accompanied Yang You and spoke softly. After Yang You fell asleep tiredly, he came to the study, opened a letter, read the information in it, and fell into deep thought.

What was written in the letter was that Liu Yao, the king of Zhongshan of the Xiongnu, was heading north to the grassland with a group of soldiers and horses. He did not know what his intentions were.

"Liu Yao is a relatively good war general among the Xiongnu. He was even the emperor of the Xiongnu in the original history. However, due to several unexpected circumstances, he was defeated because of me. Therefore, his evaluation among the Xiongnu is no longer good. Gao, if he leads his troops north this time, could he be targeting me again?"

　Thanks to "cxlcoo" for the reward of "do whatever you want without breaking the rules"!
