When Xiao Shilian saw Li Xingchen coming out, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. After all, no matter how you put it, the atmosphere before was a bit awkward. This also made Xiao Shilian secretly determined that the matter between him and Li Lian'er must be settled as soon as possible.
.
I have reached my age, so I should find a time to marry this girl, and then give her a good education to strengthen my husband!
Of course, these have to be put aside for now. Xiao Shilian grabbed Li Xingchen's wrist: "Li Shizhong, you didn't receive the news that Yu Wenyong died, right? You are still in the mood to study here, dad is asking someone to find you!"
Li Xingchen raised his eyebrows: "How could I not know that Yu Wenyong died? But hadn't he been seriously ill for a long time? It's natural for him to die. Why do you look like the world is falling apart?"
Seeing Li Xinchen's take-it-for-granted expression, Xiao Shilian was startled for a moment. His originally anxious and even angry expression at Li Xinchen's inaction gradually dissipated.
Among Pei Zilie, Xiao Shilian and Li Xingchen, who are now recognized as the three outstanding ones among the new generation of generals in Nanchen, Li Xingchen is resourceful, Xiao Shilian is brave and militant, and Pei Zilie is steady, calm and experienced, which can make up for the shortcomings of the two.
Therefore, among the three people, the one with the most scheming and strategic intentions is actually Li Xingchen.
Seeing Li Xingchen's calm look at this time, Xiao Shilian also subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as there is no danger that Li Xingchen takes to heart, then Xiao Shilian is not afraid.
Of course, Li Xingchen can understand the reaction of Xiao Shilian and others. As a time traveler, he naturally understands how fate plays a role in people. However, after all, Xiao Shilian and others do not have the perspective of God like Li Xingchen. Of course, they will not believe that a disease can become real.
He wanted to take the life of Yu Wenyong, who was not even in his forties, so it was reasonable to have such a surprised expression.
"Having said that, since General Xiao is looking for someone, I should go there myself." Li Xingchen said after careful consideration. Of course, he would not be naive like Xiao Shilian and think that Xiao Mohe was really anxious to find someone because of Yu Wenyong's death.
I must have more important things to do.
For example, Nanchen’s next strategic plan.
Now that Yu Wenyong is dead, even if the Northern Zhou Dynasty can smoothly hand over power, it will definitely take a certain amount of time. This naturally gives Nan Chen an opportunity. Obviously, in addition to Li Xingchen, Xiao Mohe also keenly sensed this opportunity.
What's more, as we all know, the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the opposition were not monolithic, and were even more complicated than the situation in the Southern Chen Dynasty. Previously, Yuwen Yong had shown powerful imperial scheming and skills at a young age, and he had convinced both the government and the opposition.
However, the prince Yuwen Yun after Yu Wenyong can only be said to have behaved quite well up to now. He was even reprimanded by Yu Wenyong several times for being greedy for wine and sex. At this time, in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, a new generation of civil and military officials such as Yang Jian was rising, and
Yuchi Geng and other veterans who had been loyal to the Northern Zhou Dynasty for several dynasties had begun to wither. Therefore, the situation faced by Yuwen Yun at this time was much more severe than that of Yuwen Yong.
The more difficult the situation Yu Wenyun faces, the more opportunities Nan Chen has.
This is what Li Xingchen is thinking about these days. After all, Nanchen did not inherit the complete territory of the Southern Dynasty. At the beginning of the founding of the country, northern Jingzhou, Sichuan, and even Huainan were under the control of the Northern Dynasty. Compared with the territory of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it was sufficient.
It's more than half less, which also means that Nanchen's national power is weaker.
Coupled with the destruction caused by Hou Jing's Rebellion, although the monarchs of Nanchen in recent years, from Emperor Chen Wu, Chen Baxian, to Emperor Chen Wen, Chen Qian, and now Chen Xu, can all be regarded as Ming lords, after all, the founding of the country was only more than 20 years ago, and in between War continues, so the power that can be used will become less and less, which means that every opportunity that appears now will be precious.
In history, Nanchen lost troops in the Battle of Luliang, and the main army was wiped out. Therefore, even if Yuwen Yong died, he could only watch helplessly. Even later, when Yuchijiong raised troops and the Northern Zhou Dynasty fell into civil strife, Nanchen was unable to do anything. Get more reactions.
But it is different now. Nanchen captured Huainan and regained Jiangling. The veteran generals in the army have not yet perished in the mountains and rivers of Luliang, and the young generals are gradually being tempered and grown. Compared with those in history, Nan Chen cannot be compared with the same.
So now Nan Chen has the ability to seize this opportunity!
"Shizhong, shall we go then?" Xiao Shilian asked tentatively, wondering why Li Xingchen suddenly became distracted.
"Let's go!" Li Xingchen said solemnly.
No matter how fleeting the opportunity is for Yu Wenyong's death, he must seize it!
——————————————
Li Xingchen did not expect that not only Xiao Mohe, Lu Guangda and other generals were there, but also the prince's concubine Zhou Que, the right guard general Mao Xi, and the two Guanglu Qings Gu Yewang and Sanqi Chang who seemed to be here to make soy sauce. Attendant Luo Ya was also present.
More importantly, in the seat that should have belonged to Xiao Mohe in the meeting hall, Chen Shubao, who did not like to show up to discuss such issues in the East Palace, actually sat. However, at this time, Chen Shubao looked listless and kept talking. He was yawning, and he didn't know whether it was because he didn't get enough rest, or because the discussion really made him uninterested.
"Shizhong, you're here." When Xiao Mohe saw Li Xinchen's figure, his face was obviously relaxed. Before Li Xinchen could greet him, he said with a smile.
Li Xingchen was startled for a moment, and then he saw the faces of Zhou Que, Mao Xi and others blushing slightly, and he vaguely guessed something. It was estimated that Zhou Que and the others had had a big quarrel with Xiao Mohe before him, and it was estimated that Xiao Mo He was at a disadvantage, otherwise he would not have looked like this when he saw him. After all, Xiao Mohe was still a person who paid great attention to etiquette between superiors and subordinates, and would not have greeted Li Xinchen so proactively.
"Li Xinchen comes to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, gentlemen." Li Xinchen said seriously and cupped his hands.
"No gifts, no gifts!" Chen Shubao suddenly became interested when he saw a newcomer coming over. He looked at Li Xinchen with wide eyes. Apparently he had heard of Li Xinchen's name a long time ago, and he had met him on the dock before. Now, Looking closely, Li Xingchen, who carries one head on two shoulders, seems to be no different from the others. What is there that Mr. Shen and the others will never forget?
And Zhou Que said loudly: "Shizhong, have you heard the news from the north?"
Li Xingchen nodded solemnly: "Yuwen Yong is dead. For us, we have indeed lost a strong opponent, and this means that we have an opportunity to take advantage of the overwhelming transfer of power within the Zhou Kingdom to continue to expand the Battle of Jiangling. Result."
Zhou Que immediately nodded: "Having said that, in your opinion, in Shizhong's opinion, in what direction should we attack?"
Li Xingchen immediately understood that there must have been a quarrel between Zhou Que, Xiao Mohe and others because of this matter.
