Chapter 138: Wild Hope
When Yelu Zhen heard this, he felt a hundred times unbelievable. What is beneficial to the Northern Wei Dynasty or not is clearly beneficial to your sixth prince.
Now the Northern Wei Dynasty is at the upper hand in the war against the big fight, and several princes who were leading troops in the army have also gained great prestige.
Only the sixth prince Wanyan He did nothing, because he was not favored and his mother had no power. Although he had the opportunity to go with the army, he had no chance to lead the army. Instead, he held an optional idle position in the eldest prince's account.
If you continue like this, even if the war is over, you will probably not do anything. If you return to the Northern Wei Dynasty, you will probably be even more unpopular.
This time, his mission to Jizhou gave Wanyan He hope. Liu Feng, the thief who is dominating several palaces, not only has territory, but also has strength. Once he persuades him to surrender to the Great Wei, he will be equivalent to taking down one-fifth of Jizhou without any effort. This is also a great contribution.
However, this matter was not that important to Yelu Zhen, who was on the side, especially after visiting Wentian repeatedly, he was rejected, which made him very annoyed.
Yelu Zhen belonged to the Zhonghuang Sect in the court, and he was loyal to the emperor, and therefore he was sent to Jizhou as an envoy. Although he was quite respectful to the Sixth Prince on the surface, he secretly did not look down on the prince's highness, so he naturally didn't care much about what he told him. In addition, there were more powerful thieves in Jizhou, Liu Feng, and another one named Chen Sheng, who was even more famous.
As long as he takes down Chen Sheng, he will explain something after he goes back. As for other things, he has nothing to do with him. He is not in his position or does not do his own affairs. He is now just a small messenger.
After pondering for a while, Yelu Zhen suggested: "Your Highness, there are more powerful thieves in Jizhou. We believe that we can have more choices, such as Chen Sheng, the thief in the west. He is not at all in the limelight now, and his troops are eight or nine times that of Liu Feng."
Wanyan He thought about it carefully, nodded and said, "Well, what you said makes sense. Otherwise, you go find Chen Sheng and I will stay here to find a way to convince Liu Feng. If these two people surrender to the Great Wei at the same time, then Jizhou will belong to the Great Wei, which is a great achievement."
"this--"
Yelu Zhen hesitated and kept the Sixth Prince here. If something happened, he would definitely lose his head after he went back.
"Don't hesitate. If we both take over Jizhou without any effort, our father will definitely be happy. You will definitely be indispensable for the promotion of the title."
Wanyan He's words immediately made Yelu Zhen no longer hesitate. Who wouldn't want to be promoted to the top of the official position? If you do this, you can leave more people here.
The two of them didn't know that just when they were about to seize Jizhou through Chen Sheng and Liu Feng, there was a quarrel in the Northern Wei camp in Chongzhou.
Jizhou borders Chongzhou. After the Northern Wei completely occupied Yan and Chongzhou, the next step would be to go south with all its might. There are roughly two routes to go south. One is to break through Qingzhou and take direct Kyoto. However, Qingzhou is a barrier to the capital, and it is not easy to break through.
So some people proposed the second route to go south, which is to go south to Jizhou, take Huzhou, and cross the canal eastward to directly take Ganjing.
Now the Northern Wei Dynasty is continuing to move south and is divided into two factions and quarreling endlessly.
Those who chose the first route believed that the front line was too long and the logistics supply was not suitable, so they were easily attacked by Qingzhou and Mengzhou and Jiangzhou near the west of Xiqi. Once the supply was cut off, the front-line troops would be in danger.
Those who choose the second route think that it is too difficult to conquer Qingzhou, and it may not be able to conquer. In short, everyone has their own reasons and no one can convince anyone.
······
Qin family.
While Qin Feiyu was discussing things with the butler Fu Uncle in the study, Qin Feiyan hurriedly ran in from outside.
"Brother, have you heard that? The lord wants to choose a concubine!"
After taking a look at his sister's tender face, which was red due to excitement, Qin Feiyu turned his head and stuffed a letter into Uncle Fu's hand. "It's important. Please don't Uncle Fu's trip in person, go and go back quickly!"
"Please rest assured, my elder brother, I will do it now."
Uncle Fu said as he bowed to Qin Feiyan next to him, and hurried out.
"Brother, are you listening to me? This is a big deal."
Qin Feiyan was a little anxious.
Qin Feiyu stood up from the chair, "I already know this, so didn't you ask Uncle Fu to pick up someone with a letter?"
"Catch someone? Who to borrow?"
Qin Feiyan's face was full of curiosity.
"Of course, it is the candidate sent to participate in this marriage election. If the lord can be seen by our lord, the status of our Qin family will also rise."
Qin Feiyu sighed, this is a good opportunity, how could he miss it?
"No, brother, are you mistaken? Why do you want to pick up someone? Who do you want to pick up? Apart from me, is there anyone more suitable for our family to participate in this marriage selection?"
Qin Feiyan bulged her mouth and her face was not chaotic. She was still not a biological brother, and her elbows turned outward.
"you?"
Qin Feiyu widened his eyes, as if he had heard something incredible.
Seeing this elder brother's expression, Qin Feiyan was immediately angry, "What's wrong with me? Are my appearance and figure very bad?"
"Forget it, it's not the problem at all."
Qin Feiyu shook his head, reached out to hold Qin Feiyan's shoulder, and said earnestly: "Sister, our Qin Mansion does not need to sacrifice your happiness to climb the dragon and the phoenix. You just need to be happy and find an honest person you like to marry."
"But I don't mind."
Qin Feiyan spread her hands, and she suddenly approached Qin Feiyu's ear and whispered: "Brother, I have thought about it. If I want to take revenge, I must become the lord's concubine. In this way, I can openly let the guys surnamed Zhou kneel down to apologize to us."
Until now, she still misses the matter of revenge.
Qin Feiyu frowned. The reason why he did not allow his own sister to participate was because he was afraid that she would cause trouble. Then he would cause the Qin family to suffer disaster. "Nothing, don't even think about this. I have decided to let my cousin participate in this kissing election, so you can stay at home honestly."
"Brother, my cousin is not good. She is too weak and can't beat other women at all. Let me go. I promise not to cause trouble."
Qin Feiyan took Qin Feiyu's hand and begged.
"This matter has not been discussed. You'd better stay at home obediently, otherwise I'll send you to my parents."
Qin Feiyu knew her sister so well that she would definitely make a big fuss when she asked her to go.
