I wanted to take this opportunity to comfort her, but, well, this situation was even more unexpected. I'm afraid Hyun was the first person to blatantly escape from the Supreme Emperor.
Ning Sheng didn't blame Hyun, but there were people who were unpopular, such as Huo Jiu.
Before the mission came back, Ning Yan had already spoken good words for them everywhere, making the people understand the difficulties of the mission. Now the public opinion in Kunyu Kingdom was all in favor of the mission. Originally, King Yi and Master Zhuo had a lot of prestige among the people. , not only did no one blame him, but there was a lot of sympathy, and Jiang Wu, a pretty boy, attracted the pity of tons of women. Huo Jiu originally thought that Ning Sheng would punish Xun when she came back, but there was no movement at all. This made Huo Jiu even more dissatisfied, thinking that now not only Ning Yan was confused, but Ning Sheng was also confused by Xun, and he was the only sensible person in the court.
Of course, there are also some "understanding people". Among these people, there are people who are as dissatisfied with Master Zhuo as Huo Jiu and want to use this to get Master Zhuo down. But they are different from Huo Jiu. Although Huo Jiu also wants to He wanted to get Mr. Zhuo down, but it was from the country. He believed that the responsibility for this incident lay entirely with Hyun. It was Hyun's failure to try his best that led to such a result. It was Hyun who was secretly causing trouble, but these people wanted to bring Mr. Zhuo down. Those who did it simply wanted to get Mr. Zhuo off, because Mr. Zhuo was too prominent and shined so much that they couldn't hold their heads up and had no chance to show themselves; some people just wanted to take advantage of the situation to gain some benefits for themselves. , if it is possible to overthrow the Ning family and support a new emperor, they will also become heroes and enjoy honors from generation to generation.
So such a group of people came together who were very, very supportive of Huo Jiu, publicizing Master Zhuo's misdeeds everywhere, accusing Master Zhuo of being a traitor, and saying that Ning Yan was blinded and was protecting Master Zhuo, etc.
This is troublesome! Although it is said that "rumors stop among wise people", the prerequisite is that there must be wise people.
People don’t know everything about things in detail. Many of them are hearsay. Even if they know the truth, it is only the superficial truth. In addition, people have a herd mentality. For example, in the story of Zengzi, his mother initially trusted him so much that she did not believe that he was a murderer. Guilty, but after hearing so much, even his mother believed it to be true. Therefore, everyone wasted money and bones, and Master Zhuo's image was almost damaged. Some people even went to the door of Hei Lian's house to throw rotten eggs, rotten vegetables, and spilled rotten rice. Dung Shui, Ning Feng and Xun took Huami's family to Prince Yi's Mansion at night and moved all the valuables from Hei Lian's Mansion.
Several people who defended Mr. Zhuo were also reviled by the people, including Ning Yan. The emperor had no majesty and the country was in danger.
This development exceeded Huo Jiu's expectation. He was targeting Xun, not the royal family, and he did not want to overthrow the Ning clan. No matter what Ning Yan thought, he was still loyal to the Ning clan. It was a pity that his friends would Things have advanced to the point where they are almost out of control.
Of course Tuoba Tao knew what was going on in the Kunyu Kingdom. Logically speaking, he could have taken the opportunity to find an excuse to send troops to the Kunyu Kingdom and completely incorporate it into the territory. However, in the Kunyu Kingdom, he couldn't bear to see Hyun shed tears, and he cursed in his heart. I have made countless plans to attack Kun Yu Country countless times, but I finally gave up. If possible, I really want to beat myself up!
Yuzi said that he wanted to negotiate with Kun Yuguo, and used this to invite Hyun to come. Seeing the tiredness in Hyun's eyes, he felt a little distressed. He gave her a seat, put on delicious snacks, and good mare's kumiss. , chatting and eating with her, but Hyun is always in a low mood, and often feels like she will fall asleep in the next second.
Tuoba Tao put down his wine glass and asked:
"Does General Zhuo want to deal with those troublemakers?"
Just when Hyun was drowsy, he suddenly woke up like a thunderbolt and raised his eyes to look at Tuoba Tao blankly.
If they were ordinary people, Xuan would be willing to make Tuoba Tao as a friend, but unfortunately, they are not ordinary people. Once national interests are involved, neither of them can trust each other. Just like now, Tuoba Tao is really He wanted to help Xun get out of trouble, but Xun was thinking whether Tuoba Tao would use this to completely destroy the Kunyu Kingdom. "Using the heart of a villain to judge the belly of a gentleman" was really a last resort in this situation.
Hyun waved her hands repeatedly:
"It's such a trivial matter, why does your Majesty need to take action? We can solve it, your Majesty, don't worry."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Tuoba Tao knew that what he said was inappropriate, and it was expected that he would be rejected by Yun.
He raised his eyebrows, picked up the wine glass and took a sip of the sour kumiss, then approached Hyun and gave her a sinister smile:
"If the Ning family is overthrown, I will destroy Kun Yu at all costs!"
This sentence is not a joke.
In terms of interests, there is a lot of cooperation between Wei Guo and Kun Yu, and so far it has been going very smoothly. It cannot be said that there is a lot of money, but Tuoba Tao has already seen its future value.
If the regime changes, although the new emperor will continue to perform these cooperations, Wei will lose a large amount of money inflow before it is stabilized, and these cooperations are all done by the Ning family. If the Ning family falls, the new emperor will come up. Can it be done so well?
Emotionally speaking, Hyun is loyal to the Ning family. If the Ning family falls, Hyun will not get a good end. Although Tuoba Tao can take the opportunity to protect her under his wings, such a woman is not willing to go anywhere. Those who commit themselves, the Ning family will fall or their heads will be missing. If they escape successfully, they may wander around the world, or die for revenge. Tuoba Tao does not want such an ending.
Therefore, if the Ning family falls, Tuoba Tao will take revenge on the new ruler both emotionally and rationally.
Not to mention the cold sweat on his forehead, Hyun was dripping with cold sweat on his back. He nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, I will definitely convey your Majesty's wishes to King Kunyu."
When Xun completed her mission and was about to return to Kunyu, Tuoba Tao took the initiative to give her a team of cavalry. There were not many people, only 200 people. However, the cavalry was equivalent to a high-end army in this era. If these 200 people are used properly, they will still be able to do the same. It can beat the opponent to a pulp and make them unable to find the north.
Xun was very grateful to Tuoba Tao. He had nothing to repay for receiving these 200 troops, so he could only bow deeply to Tuoba Tao.
The group of people rushed back to Kun Yu non-stop despite wind and rain. Ning Yan was very happy to see this team of cavalry, but the excitement only lasted for a moment, because the development of the situation exceeded Huo Jiu's expectation, and he was already pushed to the forefront. , the friends are actively preparing for the battle, and Ning Yan and the others are also preparing intensively.
After Hyun proposed the situation of modern armaments to Ning Sheng, Ning Sheng and others carried out active military reforms. The army no longer needed to be recruited at short notice, let alone ordinary people with dark eyes. Therefore, the armies of both parties gathered quickly. Ordinarily, after the military reform, generals like Huo Jiu and others only have the right to command but not to deploy. However, the troops who followed them to rebel had to thank Hyun for the concept of home and country that he instilled in them (Hyun wanted to kill villains when he thought of this) .
In New China, or before the end of the Qing Dynasty, except for the scholar-bureaucrats, ordinary Chinese people had a vague concept of family and country, and only had the concept of their own small family. However, in the late Qing Dynasty, a large number of foreign invaders continued to trample on the backbone of the Chinese people, and their consciousness of resisting foreign humiliation became more and more difficult. It became more and more intense. With the calls of batches of heroes, the concept of country became deeper and deeper, and became clearer and clearer. Only then did the people have the concept of country.
Xuan brought this concept to Kunyu State. Therefore, when the people were deceived by Huo Jiu's friends, they all aroused the same opposition sentiment as after signing the treaty of humiliating and humiliating the country. Some in the army did not know what was going on, or did not People who can think alone and only follow the crowd are fooled by the generals and all of them run away. Therefore, the number of troops Huo Jiu and others have assembled is also quite considerable.
Huo Jiu's friends also understand that it is not possible to point the finger at the Wei State. Although the Wei State forced the delegation to agree, the Wei State is not something they can provoke; it is also impossible to point the finger at the royal family. One reason is that the leader Huo Jiu Bu Agree, among the people, the prestige of the royal family is still very high, and it is not easy to overthrow it, so they pointed the finger at the "soft persimmon"-Zhuo Ye.
After Xuan and the others entered the territory of Kunyu Kingdom, in addition to their own protection, Ning Yan also sent many people to greet them. These people snowballed. When they returned to the capital, there were already 5,000 people. Not counting the losses on the road, it can be imagined that the situation at this time has reached a state of imminence.
Together with Le Zhengkang's second son, Le Zhengxi, Jiang Wu, and Wang Bi, they hurried to the palace without even having time to wash away the dust of the journey.
As I approached the study, I heard Le Zhengkang's confident yelling:
"Is this Huo Jiu stupid?! He drank so much dough that his head got mushy! What kind of bullshit is this!"
After the eunuch announced the arrival of the four people, Le Zhengyuan and Le Zhengqing opened the study door first and pulled Huan over to look him up and down:
"Fortunately, it wasn't hurt."
Ning Feng, who was pushed back by him, blew his beard and stared in anger.
Hyun didn't bother to say hello to everyone. On the way back, she had already listened to the general's explanation of the situation. As they rushed back, they discussed countermeasures. The situation in Kunyu Kingdom no longer allowed them to slowly open up their posture and then go up again.
He nodded to everyone as a greeting and rushed to Ning Yan. Without saying anything else, he first said Tuoba Tao's words that if the Ning family was overthrown, he would crush Kun Yu at all costs. Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Xuan meaningfully. The jar of jealousy in Ning Yu's heart rippled a few times, but now is not the time to be jealous, so Ning Yu quickly set up the jar of vinegar and closed the lid tightly.
Hyun's mind was not on this at all, and he was not aware of their emotional changes. After finishing speaking, he continued:
"When we came back, we had already discussed a plan."
After speaking, he winked at the other three people. Le Zhengxi, Jiang Wu, and Wang Bi explained the results of their discussion. This kind of military explanation was not Yun's strong point. They shut up and stood aside.
In fact, there is no tactic, just strike first. I originally said that I would find Huo Jiu's gathering place, but when I came back, the two sides were already on the verge of breaking out. Everything was laid out clearly, so there was no need to waste time and energy anymore. Find their hiding place.
After the three people explained, everyone was confused except for the fact that it was better to strike first.
Hyun didn't give them time to ask questions. As soon as the three of them finished speaking, she continued:
"This time it's up to me. I decided to lead the troops into battle myself." (To be continued)
