Zhang Ziqian was mature, prudent and resourceful. He asked Zhu Jingyao: "Jingyao, who is inside?"
Zhu Jingyao respectfully reported: "Mr. Zhang, that person just now was Hu Xiaotian's subordinate." Zhan Peng recognized Zhu Jingyao as Li Honghan's subordinate. Zhu Jingyao also recognized Zhan Peng at the first sight. He just pretended to follow him.
It's just like he's never met before.
Zhang Ziqian frowned when he heard this. He didn't expect to meet Hu Xiaotian here. Hu Xiaotian had already become the consort of Tianxiang Kingdom. He did not choose to return to Dongliang County directly, but turned back to the west. Did he go to Hongmuchuan first?
look?
Li Honghan also thought of this and whispered: "I heard that Tianxiang Kingdom has given Hongmuchuan as a dowry to Princess Yingyue, which is really a bargain for Hu Xiaotian."
Zhang Ziqian nodded and said: "Hongmuchuan only belongs to Tianxiang Kingdom in name. Tianxiang Kingdom has never implemented real control in these years. Giving Hongmuchuan to Hu Xiaotian is just superficial. How can they take something that does not belong to them?
Come to send someone off? Then Hu Xiaotian’s power is distributed in Dongliang County. Even if the Hongmuchuan is given to him, with a large area of other countries’ land in between, what will he have to govern? "
Li Honghan snorted coldly and said: "This man is really greedy! There is no time to be satisfied even if you go to Longwang to Shu." He didn't have a good impression of Hu Xiaotian. Hu Xiaotian was still engaged to his sister. When Long Yelin of Dakang was plotting to usurp the throne, Li Honghan once
Following his father's order, he wanted to keep Hu Xiaotian in Xichuan, but he didn't expect that Hu Xiaotian actually escaped from under his eyes. That incident is still regarded as a shame by Li Honghan to this day. The old hatred has not been eliminated, but the new hatred has been added. This time in Tianxiang
The country was once again taken advantage of by Hu Xiaotian, so naturally she felt quite unhappy.
Zhang Ziqian knew that the major general had a deep feud with Hu Xiaotian and had been frustrated in front of Hu Xiaotian many times. Li Honghan himself was not a broad-minded person. Zhang Ziqian was worried that Li Honghan would cause trouble, so he smiled and said: "Hu Xiaotian's luck is really good." In fact.
Deep down in his heart, he has long recognized Hu Xiaotian's ability, but even so, he cannot say it in front of Li Honghan, otherwise it will only arouse Li Honghan's anger. Therefore, the experienced Zhang Ziqian attributes Hu Xiaotian's success today to luck, maybe only
Saying this can make Li Honghan feel better.
Li Honghan said angrily: "He can't be lucky forever."
Zhang Ziqian said: "Now that I know it's his team, I can't help but say hello."
The rain outside became much lighter, and the heavy rain turned into a drizzle. Zhang Ziqian stood up and said: "I'm going to say hello to him." He said deliberately: "Young General, are you going?"
Li Honghan shook his head and said, "I have no such friendship with him."
Zhang Ziqian secretly laughed at Li Honghan's narrow-mindedness. Hu Xiaotian almost became his brother-in-law, and said they had no friendship. Compared with his father Li Tianheng, Li Honghan was indeed very different. Who said that a tiger father has no canine sons? Although Li Honghan is superior in martial arts and intelligence
choice, but after all, he lacks a lot of ambition, which is the biggest taboo for those who achieve great things.
Zhang Ziqian did not force himself and asked Zhu Jingyao to accompany him to the backyard to visit Hu Xiaotian.
After the group from Xichuan arrived, Zhan Peng and Liang Yinghao immediately began to wake up all the warriors and re-defense in the backyard. Although it was not yet certain that Li Honghan and others had malicious intentions, after all, they had to nip it in the bud, and the number of opponents must exceed
There are many of them, and there are many experts among them.
The defense here had just been completed. There was another knock in the backyard. Zhan Peng came to the door and asked with vigilance: "Who is it?"
The person who came to visit was Zhang Ziqian, the chief historian of Xichuan. Zhang Ziqian said loudly: "I am Zhang Ziqian of Xichuan. I heard that Mr. Hu is here, so I came here to pay a visit and wanted to catch up with Mr. Hu."
Zhan Peng was startled when he heard this. Isn't Zhang Ziqian the chief adviser under Li Tianheng in Xichuan? It turns out that they have already figured out their identity. Zhan Peng thought about it and realized that he can recognize them. Naturally, others can also recognize him.
He opened the courtyard door a crack, revealed his face, and said outside: "It turns out to be Mr. Zhang. My young master has gone to bed, so I can't disturb you. I hope you can forgive me."
Zhang Ziqian smiled and said: "It's my presumption to say so, but I would like to ask the general to inform you that I do have something important to see Mr. Hu."
Zhan Peng said: "Master Zhang, let's wait until tomorrow. We really don't dare to disturb the young master's rest."
Zhang Ziqian sighed and said, "Okay!" He clasped his fists and said goodbye. As soon as he turned around, he heard the door closing behind him.
Zhang Ziqian returned to the main hall where Li Honghan took shelter from the rain. Seeing him leaving and returning so quickly, Li Honghan couldn't help but be curious: "Why did Mr. Zhang come back so soon?"
Zhang Ziqian said: "If you don't see anyone, you will naturally come back."
Li Honghan guessed that he must have been rejected, and secretly laughed in his heart. Zhang Ziqian had been calling Hu Xiaotian brothers all day long. He really didn't know why Hu Xiaotian deserved his respect. He thought he had a close friendship with him, so he went to get close to him with a thick face, but he ended up being hot-tempered.
When it comes to cold butt, it is really humiliating.
Zhang Ziqian said: "It seems that Hu Xiaotian is not here."
Li Honghan was startled when he heard this: "How can you see it?"
Zhang Ziqian said: "It's just Xu Shi, and it's not time to rest yet. Besides, so many people suddenly came to this temple. Do you think he can sleep peacefully? If he is here, there is no reason to avoid me.
not see."
Li Honghan said: "What difference does it make if he is here or not? Mr. Zhang seems to be very disappointed when he can't see him."
Zhang Ziqian could not hear the sarcasm in his words, he smiled calmly and said: "Young General, do you still remember the main purpose of our coming to Tianxiang Country this time?"
Li Honghan nodded. Of course he remembered that his father had repeatedly warned him before he left that he must seize the position of Prince Consort this time and it would be best to form an alliance with Tianxiang Kingdom to strengthen each other, especially if Hongmuchuan is determined to win.
Hongmuchuan is located in the south of Xichuan, and is separated from Xichuan by only Tianlang Mountain. If Hongmuchuan can be captured, the horse bandits in Tianlang Mountain can be isolated, and the disobedient bandit Yan Kui can be eliminated from Xichuan's territory.
Go out and open up the southern channel of Xichuan. This matter is related to the future development of Xichuan.
Zhang Ziqian said: "Xichuan has developed slowly in the past two years and missed many opportunities for expansion. Now Dakang has gone through the most difficult period. This year finally ushered in a good harvest. Hu Xiaotian has also established a foothold in the Yongjiang River Basin.
To keep his footing, Su Yuchi guarded Yunyang, intending to control Hu Xiaotian, but at the same time, he also controlled our Xichuan's throat passage to the hinterland of the Central Plains. This means that it will be increasingly difficult for Xichuan to advance into the Central Plains in the future. For us, we want to
To strengthen our power, we must clear the southern passage. Originally, Yan Kui had surrendered, but this man was too ambitious, had a high self-esteem, and was unwilling to be subordinate to the commander-in-chief, so he became a stumbling block on the southern passage to Xichuan."
Li Honghan sneered and said: "What kind of obstacle is he? He's just an old dog! If my father hadn't considered the local people's livelihood, he would have leveled the Tianlang Mountain long ago. How could he be allowed to dominate the Tianlang Mountain area?"
Zhang Ziqian said: "Young General, please don't underestimate Yan Kui. This person is not that easy to deal with. Over the years, there have been many campaigns against him, but he is still alive and well. The first reason is because he
Tianlang Mountain has a unique terrain, and the second reason is that he has the support of several major forces in the Hongmuchuan River. Otherwise, why would he compete with us? As long as he captures the Hongmuchuan River, he can cut off the support of Tianlang Mountain. This gang
Horse bandits have become water without a source and a tree without roots, which will inevitably collapse without attack."
Li Honghan knew that what Zhang Ziqian said was very reasonable. He frowned and said, "It's just that Hongmuchuan has fallen into Hu Xiaotian's hands now. Are we going to snatch it away?"
Zhang Ziqian said: "If Hongmuchuan remains as it is, even though it is not ideal, it is acceptable to us, but in the hands of Hu Xiaotian, it will be a big disadvantage."
Li Honghan was wondering why Zhang Ziqian was inconsistent in your words. He just said that it would be difficult for Hu Xiaotian to manage Hongmuchuan. After all, the territory Hu Xiaotian currently controls is too far away from Hongmuchuan. As the saying goes, it is beyond the reach of the whip. How can he take care of such a long distance? What now?
Suddenly changed the way of saying it?
Zhang Ziqian had already guessed what Li Honghan was thinking from his eyes, and sighed: "The young general may think that I am inconsistent, but what I say makes sense. Hu Xiaotian should have returned to his territory via the waterway.
, even if they choose the land route, they should not sacrifice the near for the far. If they choose this road, they should go to Hongmu River first."
Li Honghan said: "What will happen if he goes? Do you think he can control the Hongmuchuan alone? Mr. Zhang really thinks he is omnipotent!" His words were full of ridicule.
Zhang Ziqian was not angry and whispered: "What we can see may not be visible to others. Maybe God deliberately gave us this opportunity tonight."
Li Honghan heard something in Zhang Ziqian's words and whispered: "Mr. Zhang, can you speak more clearly?"
Zhang Ziqian said: "According to my judgment, Hu Xiaotian is most likely not here. He may have rushed to Hongmuchuan first, but he left so many people behind. He should be protecting Princess Yingyue. I heard that Princess Yingyue is also following this time.
He left Piaoxiang City together." He lowered his voice and said: "Those who achieve big things don't stick to trivial matters. Why don't we use this opportunity to eradicate Princess Yingyue and Hu Xiaotian's gang, and then blame Dayong? Hu Xiaotian suffered such a heavy blow.
, naturally cannot take into account Hongmuchuan, and his marriage with Tianxiang Kingdom will also end because of this."
Although Li Honghan hated Hu Xiaotian, he never thought of using such a method to deal with him. He always thought that Zhang Ziqian and Hu Xiaotian were friends for many years, but he never expected that the person who proposed such a vicious plan turned out to be Zhang Ziqian. Zhang Ziqian clearly wanted me to get the redwood.
Sichuan, Hu Xiaotian, don't even think about such a cheap idea as Bai Luo. No wonder his father thinks so highly of him. No wonder he has the title of Xichuan's number one counselor. He is indeed well-deserved. Jiang is old and spicy, so you can't accept it. (~^~)
