Just when Wang Long was worried about the disappearance of the Seventh Lady and his position as head of the clan was in jeopardy, Wang Junlin unexpectedly appeared. In normal times, he would have had enough patience to deal with Wang Junlin, keeping the Wang family in the most secure position, but
At this time, he didn't have that much patience.
Of course Wang Junlin knew that Wang Long was just talking big words. He came here today to solve practical problems and to get a clear answer or guarantee from Wang. He knew that Wang Long was an old fox and the kind of master who would not shed tears until he saw the coffin.
Wang Junlin said straight to the point: "The prince is worried about the disappearance of the seventh lady."
Wang Long's expression finally changed for the first time, he stared at Wang Junlin, and finally turned into a look of surprise, and said: "Qin An is really well-informed, he even knows about the disappearance of a daughter of my Wang family."
Wang Junlin thought that this old man was really good at pretending, and sneered in his heart, and said with a half-smile on his face: "Not only does this junior know that the seventh wife of the prince is missing, but he also knows why she disappeared. Of course, this junior also knows many other things, such as
Tell me the reason why Wang Zhi, the eldest son of the prince, is out of his mind today."
Wang Long's expression finally changed. He stood up suddenly and stared at Wang Junlin. Murderous intent flashed in his eyes. His expression changed. He strode far away from Wang Junlin and came to the door. He said in a cold voice.
: "Wang Junlin, are you not afraid that I will kill you and silence you?"
Wang Junlin sneered and said: "My lord, do you know how the younger generation sneaked into the palace of the Han Dynasty and killed the King of Han Yang Liang a few days ago, and then broke through the south gate of Taiyuan in the midst of Gao Ying's army and fled."
Wang Long then remembered all the horrific deeds of the people in front of him, his pupils shrank, and he wanted to say something through gritted teeth. Wang Junlin said again: "So, the prince had better not call the five people who were ambushing outside the door to come in, otherwise the first one will die."
He is the prince."
Wang Long took a deep breath, his face turned pale, but he didn't know what he thought of. He returned to his seat, smiled sadly, picked up his tea cup and took a sip. Just as he was about to say something, Wang Junlin said again: "No one dares to touch me.
You have murderous intent and dare to drink the tea placed in front of me."
"Pfft!"
"Cough cough cough cough!"
Wang Long spit out the tea in one gulp, thinking that he might have been poisoned by the poisonous general, and his face turned pale with horror.
"My lord, don't worry. The younger generation can easily remove the poison that the lord has been poisoned by. Of course, the premise is that the prince is willing to conspire with the younger generation and make great contributions to the court." Wang Junlin said calmly.
Wang Long's face changed several times, and finally he said with a bleak look: "If what you are planning to do puts my Wang family in danger, I will not obey even to the death, and I will definitely do my best today to keep you in my family."
In Wang’s courtyard.”
Wang Junlin sighed and said: "Your Majesty, let's not talk about whether you, the Wang family, can leave the junior here, or how many of you will die if you leave me behind. If I make a mistake today, the prince and his son will share a concubine.
Someone will immediately announce it to the world."
Wang Long sat down on the ground, and the determination to die on his face suddenly disappeared. He could die for his family, but he would never want his scandal with the Wang family to be spread to the world. This is what literati care about most.
, the more famous a scholar is, the more he cares about his reputation, even more than his own life.
Wang Junlin struck while the iron was hot and said: "Perhaps the prince doesn't know yet! The prince's seventh wife was ordered by the younger generation to deliberately seduce the prince's eldest son, Wang Zhi."
When Wang Long heard this, his body trembled and he lost his voice: "Is what you said true?"
Without waiting for Wang Junlin to answer, Wang Long murmured to himself again, with a look of confusion on his face, and said: "So that's it, he is really vicious for the sake of his position as the sect leader."
Seeing that the time was ripe, Wang Jun said at the right time: "Of course, if the prince agrees to conspire with the younger generation, the younger generation can help the prince kill the villain behind the seventh lady who covets the position of the prince's clan leader. And ensure that the prince's scandal will not be revealed to the world.
"
Wang Long didn't hesitate for long before he made his decision: "I promised Qin An that I would like to work with Qin An to plan big things, but I don't know what Qin An wants my Wang family to do?"
Wang Junlin secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Before we conspire to do something big, I must first help the prince to completely control the Wang family."
Wang Long sighed and said: "My Wang family will never allow brother to kill brother."
Wang Junlin had long expected that he would say this, and he snorted coldly and said: "Of course the person who killed Wang Xiong, the brother of Wang Gong, was not Wang Gong, nor was he a junior, but Gao Ying's confidant in Taiyuan City. Wang Gong only needs to do
Just be ready to take over the forces under Kaohsiung."
Wang Long's eyes flashed and he said: "This is a plan that kills two birds with one stone. Qin An's reputation is indeed well-deserved. Gao Ying's people will take action. When the time comes, I, the Wang family, will cooperate with Qin An to control Taiyuan. It will be an act of great justice."
…
…
When Wang Junlin sneaked into Taiyuan City, threatened the Wang family, and conspired with Taiyuan City, Yang Yichen, the forward of Yang Su's Northern Expedition Army, had led an army of 30,000 to Anyi Town in Hedong County.
Yang Yichen was one of Yang Su's most trusted generals in the army. He had accompanied Yang Su in his northern expedition against the Turks and conquered the East. After the Turks, he was named the general manager of Shuozhou. This time, Yang Su was the first to write a letter to transfer him.
He came under his command and led his 30,000 Shuozhou direct troops as the vanguard general.
Yang Yichen was very grateful to Yang Su for giving him the opportunity to make great contributions. He was already quite old. Although he was also the governor of a state, whether he could go one step further and become a general of the Sui Dynasty, putting down the rebellion and merging the state might be his only chance.
.
The Bingzhou army facing Yang Yichen was a 40,000-strong army led by Gao Ying's confidant Gao Shishan. Although the number was 10,000 more than Yang Yichen's, Yang Yichen had already sent spies to find out clearly. Gao Shishan only had 20,000 elite soldiers, and the other two
Wan is a recruit recruited by Yang Liang in the past few years. He has never been on the battlefield or seen blood.
Gao Shishan knew this very well and asked Gao Ying for help. However, Yang Su was skilled in military tactics and had rich experience. He had long seen the shortcomings of Gao Ying's failure to fully grasp the Bingzhou army, so he deliberately attacked the border from the three fronts of Hedong, Hexi and Youzhou.
, forcing Gao Ying to divide his forces and fight, the only ones that could be given to Gao Shishan were these men and horses, so Gao Shishan did not have much confidence in the battle against Yang Yichen.
In late September, Yang Yichen's 30,000 Shuozhou Army and Gao Shishan's 40,000 Bingzhou Army finally met. The two armies set up a battlefield in a wilderness twenty miles north of Anfang Town.
"Boom--boom--boom!"
The war drums are beating one after another, and the rhythm is not fast. It is more like a reminder to prepare for war. But every sound of the war drums is like knocking on people's hearts, making people so nervous that they can't breathe. It's a kind of warning before the war is coming.
