In order to avoid suspicion, Feng Ziying had to leave Chongxuan Guan first and come to Chongxuan Guan again later.
Guo Qinyun was also very careful and delayed her arrival until after You hour.
However, her reason this time was very good, that is, she wanted to stay at Chongxuan Temple for two days to cultivate her moral character.
Zhou Peisheng and Zhou Dehai's uncle and nephew were accompanying him on this trip.
After Dai Quan and Dai Zong's uncles and nephews began to take over Mei Yuexi's coordination affairs inside and outside the palace, Zhou Peisheng and Zhou Dehai also felt great pressure.
In this position, if you don't advance, you will retreat, or even if you don't advance, you will perish.
The battle for the throne has always been bloody, and there is no sense of friendship. Once Prince Gong is completely eliminated from the competition, it means that the uncles and nephews of the Zhou family will also fall from their positions of power in the palace, get out, or even defect to the throne.
People are hard to find.
Guo Qinjun's stubbornness and even paranoia brought about the kind of all-or-nothing courage that even Zhou Peisheng felt frightened. He wanted to lure Feng Ziying into the water, and even "fed a tiger" with his body to seduce Feng Ziying. This bold move
It was even hard for Zhou Peisheng to imagine.
However, this point made Zhou Dehai feel that it was a stroke of genius that might even reverse the current unfavorable situation for His Highness Prince Gong.
"Uncle, do you think the emperor can really wake up and regain control of the situation in this situation?" Zhou Dehai leaned on the carriage board, half-closed his eyes and said leisurely: "During this period, I have been going there almost every other day to have a look.
Look, there’s nothing wrong with the Emperor’s body and bones, but here…”
Zhou Dehai pointed at his head, then shook his head and said: "No, I think the emperor can basically eat, and his complexion seems to be better than before, but he is basically not conscious, or in other words, even if the emperor is conscious
By the time, no one will believe it.”
Zhou Dehai's last sentence hit the nail on the head. Although the emperor was in a coma most of the time, he could sometimes wake up for a short period of time. However, no one could say clearly whether he actually regained consciousness, so no one thought at all.
The emperor's consciousness has recovered.
If everyone thinks you are insane, then you must be insane, and it doesn't matter whether you are truly insane or not.
Zhou Peisheng had a complicated and unspeakable look on his face, shook his head, but said nothing.
"Uncle, you have also seen the behavior of those who were in Longfu Temple today. Xu Junru looks fierce but has a weak heart. His confidence is obviously lacking now. It seems that the news from Captain Long is quite reliable. There is probably some evidence.
Pointing at King Shou; Su Lingyao danced happily, but I heard that the two brothers, King Fu and King Li, were trying to undermine each other. Haha, the enemy is facing a big enemy. They don’t think about how to deal with King Lu and are still fighting among themselves. How can this be done?
do what?"
Zhou Peisheng's eyes wandered, "So you think they have no chance, and this is Prince Gong's opportunity?"
"Whether they have any drama depends on the follow-up development, but with Su Lingyao jumping in front, attracting Mei Yuexi's attention, at least giving Prince Gong some hope? We can't just sit there like this.
Sit down, instead of doing this, why don't we shamelessly touch Mei Yuexi's toes and beg her to take us in?" Zhou Dehai said very vulgarly, but very realistically.
"No chance, if Dai Quan doesn't come back, maybe Mei Yuexi can give us a chance. Dai Quan is back, as if he represents the Supreme Emperor, and Dai Zong is enlightened. Mei Yuexi won't take us in anymore." Zhou Peisheng shook his head, "Mei Yuexi
She is not stupid enough to demolish the Great Wall. Dai Quan can give her everything we can bring her, and even more, so why should she come here to cause trouble?"
"So my nephew agrees with Concubine Tsuen's attempt." Zhou Dehai said in a deep voice.
Zhou Peisheng glanced at his ambitious nephew and sighed, "Then do you know what Concubine Quan is thinking? Such a shocking and even disrespectful act..."
Zhou Dehai sneered and disapproved of his uncle's "pedanticness", "Uncle, we are all going to be kicked out and even our heads are on the ground. Who do you think cares about this? Do you and I care, or does Concubine Tsuen care?"
"There are no walls in the world that are impermeable to wind, but if Prince Gong can really achieve great wealth in the future, then..." Zhou Peisheng said hesitantly.
Zhou Dehai felt that his uncle was really old, and he was not as strong as Dai Quan. He became more ruthless as he got older, and his uncle became more indecisive and no longer cared about false reputations and so-called moral principles.
"Uncle, if Prince Gong doesn't have the chance to ascend the throne, then that's it. If he does succeed in ascending the throne, there are two consequences. Either the Feng family will be wiped out by him, or the Feng family is so powerful that he cannot control it and can only endure it.
So what? The throne has finally fallen to his line. Isn’t that what Queen Concubine Tsuen longs for? As for the rest, who cares?"
Zhou Peisheng was stunned and took a deep look at his nephew, "Are you very optimistic about the Feng family?"
"Well, uncle, I'm afraid I don't know much about the outside world. Chen Jixian suddenly led the Huaiyang army to go south to Yangzhou, leaving an empty Xuzhou and a complete Xuzhou. Niu Jizong's army also went south to seize Xuzhou in a tacit understanding. The northwest army was in Caozhou.
There was a fierce battle with the Xuanfu army in the Dingtao and Chengwu areas. Sun Shaozu led the army to withdraw from Jinan to Yanzhou, and another army withdrew from Dongchangfu to Dongpingzhou and Zhangqiu Town. Now the Xuanfu army and the Datong army are on the line between Jining and Xuzhou.
Hug a group,..."
Zhou Peisheng was shocked and couldn't help but ask: "When did you receive the news? Why didn't I know?"
"I received it when I was praying at Longfu Temple." Zhou Dehai lowered his voice: "I guess many people in the court don't know about it yet."
Zhou Peisheng's eyes narrowed, looking at his nephew as if he didn't recognize him, and after a long time he said in a dry voice: "Is that the news they gave you? When did they contact you? What's their intention?"
Zhou Dehai didn't care at all. His uncle would never betray him no matter what. "He just came to him after the Linqing Battle. Prince Yi Zhong still had some connections in the palace. As for his purpose, he didn't want to let Prince Gong go."
Fighting for position, causing some trouble for this side, even if it has some influence, is good. I think they are just out of their wits, so they do this, but this is not a bad thing for us, but we didn't expect Chen Jixian to be so decisive all of a sudden.
And it is said that by handing over a complete Xuzhou to Niu Jizong, Niu Jizong was equivalent to a perfect handover with him. Didn't it mean that Chen Jixian was willing to serve the imperial court?"
Zhou Peisheng's heart trembled. Chen Jixian became so decisive?
In his impression, Chen Jixian was not a person with such courage.
And the Northwest Army, which is watching covetously from the west, just sit back and watch the Xuanfu Army easily withdraw south and take control of Xuzhou?
This is equivalent to saving the lives of Niu Jizong and Sun Shaozu who were already in trouble.
As long as Xuzhou is cut off, the Xuanfu Army and the Datong Army can only be surrounded in Shandong and wait for death. And has Feng Tang's Northwest Army become so sparse?
Zhou Peisheng didn't know the specific situation on the battlefield. There may be objective reasons for this, but his long-term immersion in the palace made him subconsciously go in the direction of conspiracy theories.
Could it be that Feng Tang felt something, that the birds were gone and the bows were hidden, and the rabbits died and the dogs were cooked, so he had to make preparations first?
Judging from the current war situation, once Shandong is lost, the possibility of Prince Yi Zhong's comeback is very small, and collapse is only a matter of time.
Jiangnan alone cannot hold or compete with the imperial court, nor can it be combined with Huguang, unless major changes occur in the north.
Maybe Nanjing is stalling for time, waiting for such an opportunity, but is there such an opportunity?
Shaanxi civil unrest and rebellion caused by plague?
Invasion by the Mongols from the north or the Jianzhou Jurchens from Liaodong?
Or is it the White Lotus Rebellion?
These are all known to the imperial court and are being gradually resolved.
Didn't Feng Ziying go to Shaanxi just to quell the rebellion caused by civil unrest?
Zhou Peisheng did not believe that these factors could affect the outcome of the imperial court's conquest of Jiangnan.
Moreover, under the general trend, according to the current progress, the Jiangnan issue will definitely be resolved before the end of this year. What is the big deal that the court cannot persist in for half a year?
"When Chen Jixian did this, it was not like he was thinking about the imperial court, but because he wanted to survive on his own. Will Nanjing allow him to take Yangzhou? Obviously impossible. With Yangzhou, his Huaiyang Town's strength can be greatly increased. But he gave Xuzhou to Niu Jizong and Sun Shaozu, and saved the lives of the Xuanfu Army and the Datong Army." Zhou Peisheng said slowly: "His skills are very powerful."
"You can't see clearly now. At this time, everyone has to think about themselves, and how can they care about others?" Zhou Dehai didn't care much about things in the south.
In his opinion, it was a foregone conclusion that the imperial court would regain Jiangnan. Prince Yitada asked someone to contact him to provide help, and he was happy to accept it.
As for what can be delayed and what effect it can have, in his opinion, it is simply seeking medical treatment indiscriminately when the patient is terminally ill.
I am not a fool, I have to watch the trend and do it only when I can do it. If the risks exceed the benefits, I will definitely not do it.
The other party has no binding force on our side, and the initiative always rests with our side.
Zhou Peisheng put aside Feng Tang's idea of raising a bandit and respecting himself. He couldn't control that much now, that would be a matter for the future.
If a warrior is domineering, he will naturally have court officials to deal with it. When the emperor is in the middle, he will have more room for maneuver. This is not all a bad thing.
"I thought that the imperial court would be able to conquer Shandong, but now it seems that if Niu Jizong and Sun Shaozu retreat to southern Zhili, the battle will probably be prolonged." Zhou Peisheng pondered deeply, "What is Chen Jixian doing?"
What are your plans? Do you have some tacit understanding with Feng Tang? "
"Haha, uncle, don't underestimate these warriors. They are more sensitive to things that endanger their interests than anyone else. I have some doubts about what role this little Feng Xiuzuan plays in it. He has the benefits of both sides, so
If Concubine Tsuen has to risk her life to fight, she may not have a chance." Zhou Dehai sneered.
