Prime Minister take care

Chapter 388 Crisis
Snow is falling, and the night in the capital city is extremely cold.

Huan Qing was walking on the street, with the tall figure of Jinfeng in front of him, and a group of Liang soldiers on both sides.

Huan Qing felt uneasy in his heart. Without any warning, he was awakened from his residence tonight.If it weren't for Jin Feng, Huan Wu's closest personal guard commander, Huan Qing would almost think it was a conspiracy.

Unlike Huan Fing, after getting married, Huan Qing and other brothers moved out of the Lianghou Mansion and had their own mansion.

Huan Qing's residence is not far from Liang Hou's residence, and it takes only a quarter of an hour to arrive.But what surprised Huan Qing was that what was waiting for him was not a mountain of swords or a sea of ​​fire, but a pair of familiar faces.

Among them were the elders of the Huan clan, generals from the northern and southern armies, and many prominent figures from the Su, Chang, and Yang clans.

They looked at Huan Qing with very complicated eyes.

Some are happy, some are puzzled, and some are jealous.

Huan Qing walked forward in front of this complicated gaze until he reached Huan Wu's bedroom.There, Huan Zhong and Huan Gong, two important generals in the Huan clan, were waiting.

"Uncle Zhong, Uncle Gong, when did you return to the Capital of Gods?"

Huan Qing was obviously a little surprised, but the two men did not show any unnecessary expressions.On this occasion, they do not need and should not express too much about Huan Qing.

"Master Qing, the Lord is waiting for you inside. Come in quickly!"

Huan Qing was keenly aware that Huan Zhong's name for him had changed, because in the past, Huan Zhong always called him Qing'er.

With this change and this occasion, Huan Qing suddenly remembered what Chang Yu said when he left.

Do your duty as a courtier!
This is enough!

At this time, Huan Qing felt as if his whole heart was about to burst.But he finally adjusted his mood within a few breaths and took a step forward.

He Che then stood guard in front of the door, watched Huan Qing approaching, and slowly opened the door.

The room was warm, even hot.Huan Qing came from the cold wind in the snow, and felt a little uncomfortable when he first entered the house.

Huan Qing steadied his pace and walked forward.

His father, the most powerful prince today, was lying on the couch.And beside him, stood two people.

Fang Yuting and Zhao Ye!

These two people who were crucial to Huan Wu's hegemony were also the people Huan Wu trusted the most over the years.

They seemed to have just finished talking to Huan Wu about something. When they saw Huan Qing coming, they all bowed and walked outside.

Huan Qing knelt beside Huan Wu's bed, but heard Huan Wu's voice.

"From today on, you are the prince of Lianghou. Are you happy?"

Huan Wu's gaze did not turn back to Huan Qing, but kept looking up, as if ignoring the meaning of his appointed heir.

"My son only feels that a huge burden is on his shoulders, and he dares not feel the slightest joy."

Huan Qing's tone was very serious and serious.As the son of Huan Wu, his glory has always been overshadowed by Huan Bin. What few people know is that Huan Qing's strategies, methods and even scheming are no worse than Huan Bin.

"It's good that you have this awareness. You are not as good as Bin'er, but among all your brothers, you are the only one who can shoulder the great responsibility."

"Father!"

"The land of seven states, the army of millions, the monks in the three guards and one palace, now this beam is left to you! What you want to do in the future is your business. But remember, I, the beam, are far from being able to sit back and relax. I have ordered Chu Sui to move his army to Wancheng, and Huan Yi to build the city of Luyang. The Wu and Chu armies are good at water warfare, but they lack infantry and cavalry. They are more than enough in defense but not enough in attack. With Huan Yi and Chu Sui here, Yangzhou and Jingzhou should respond in two directions. It’s no big deal. But Cai Tong is rare in the world, and Hou Tao is brave enough to stop his father, so you have to be on guard. As for the East China Sea, after Mo Dou’s death, the Sea Clan split. For the time being, there is no Sea King in the Sea Clan who can inherit Mo Dou’s territory. With the power, the Zhao Palace is stationed in Xuzhou, keeping an eye on it at all times, and there will be no major worries within five years. To the north, the Demon Emperor Wu Hao has great ambitions like his father. The Demon Clan has no shortage of talents, and great demons abound. . However, the expansion of the Yan army to the north can, at least at least, relieve us of some of the pressure. I have ordered Zheng Da to move his army to Youzhou, and then order a hundred thousand troops to go north to merge with Hebei to frighten the demon and barbarian tribes. Climb the Rhinoceros Cavalry. If it succeeds, the demon clan will not be in trouble. Zhu Zi, Jing Yun and others, although they have advanced cultivation and have many elites under their command, will not be in danger. If we control Guan City, they can be stopped."

Huan Wu's skinny hand stretched out from the quilt and grabbed Huan Qing's hand.He turned around and looked at Huan Qing with his eyes as sharp as an eagle.

"The real big problem for me, Daliang, is in Shu. You must keep this in mind. I am about to die, but Yang Xian is still alive. You are no match for him." Huan Wu's eyes scanned Huan Qing's face. His expression didn't change at all.

"Ask your father to teach you."

"Chang Yu, Yang Jian, and Meng Qing! Making good use of these three people is the key to dealing with Yang Xian."

Huan Wu let go of Huan Qing's hand, and with an inexplicable smile on his face, he said, "I know that these three people have secretly pledged their allegiance to you."

"Father, I."

Huan Qing's face showed a slight change, and he seemed to want to explain, but Huan Wu stopped him.

"You don't need to say much, but remember that these three people are all heroes in the world. You have to use them and guard against them. And those wealthy families, don't feed them too much, otherwise they will eventually covet the ones they shouldn't. Things. Don’t starve them too much, otherwise they will eventually come back to bite you.”

"My lord, remember this. We just have to deal with Yang Xian. Are these three people enough?"

Huan Qing thought for a moment and finally expressed his doubts.

Huan Wu looked at Huan Qing and was very pleased.He held out a finger.

"Ten years! As long as you can stabilize the situation in Yongzhou for ten years, the national power between Liang and Shu will only become stronger and stronger, and our country in Daliang will also become more stable. Even Yang Xian cannot shake it. And this Within ten years, to stabilize the situation in Yongzhou, the most critical place is not to touch Liangzhou."

Speaking of this, Huan Wu smiled, his voice was very playful.

"What's more, the Yang family is short-lived, Yang Ci is like this, Yang Zhong is like this. Yang Xian! Maybe ten years later, it will be the same."

"My son understands!"

"Then go!"

Huan Wu waved his hand, as if he had finished handing over the work, he breathed a sigh of relief, and lay back on the bed again very tired.

Huan Qing agreed, but he could see that there was no trace of friendship involved.Huan Wu gave Daliang to him, not because Huan Qing was his favorite son, but because he just thought Huan Qing was suitable.

Huan Qing stood up with difficulty and walked halfway, but turned around and knelt down in front of Huan Wu's couch.

"Father, there is something I don't know! I'm afraid if I don't ask now, I won't have the chance to find out in this life."

"What's the matter?"

"Why has my father always disliked me since I was a child? He has even been very indifferent to me. He is far inferior to my third and fourth brothers."

This childish question was obviously not suitable to be asked at this time, and should not even be asked by an adult, but it was what Huan Qing had wanted to know since he was a child.

But Huan Wu still answered, his hoarse voice caressing Huan Qing's heart.

"Because you are the most similar to me! Looking at you is like seeing me in the past."

"what?"

Huan Qing obviously didn't expect Huan Wu's answer to be like this, and almost thought it was a big joke.

"People always hate people who are the same as themselves." At this point, Huan Wu sighed, showing a hint of gratitude, "Bun'er is kind, he has all the qualities of a talented and strategic king, and he is my ideal Heir among them. And Heng'er is brave, and Jue'er is bold. But today's world, today's Daliang, is full of crises. As kings, their advantages are their biggest shortcomings. Only you can take on the big responsibility. Qing'er, Protect the country of Daliang and protect the world of my Huan family."

"My son knows!"

A few words, but they have great power.Huan Qing knelt down in front of Huan Wu and kowtowed heavily.

In the winter of the ninth year of Yonghe, Marquis Huan Wu of Liang passed away and made his second son Huan Qing the heir apparent.
