"Enter!" Gao Xi waved his hand, but without looking ahead, he stretched out his hand to grab the horse's rein, "Where is Duke Sui?!"
He always had an ominous premonition, that is, Yu Wenxian had already left Chang'an City, otherwise it would not have been so quiet, otherwise the Forbidden Army would not have had the will to resist at all. In the final analysis, this Forbidden Army was following the Duke Yang Jian and Yu Wen
A thorn in Yun's side and a thorn in his side for a long time, although Yang Jian formed a new Imperial Guard Army, these recruits were obviously no match for the Forbidden Army.
So Yang Jian had only two choices before. One was to wait for Wei Xiaokuan to come forward, and the other was to use His Majesty's support and the number of soldiers to fight Yu Wenxian. Of course, no matter which method was used, there were great risks. After all, Yu Wenxian was very powerful in the military.
His achievements are enough to put pressure on Yang Jian.
But the situation in front of him now was enough to surprise Gao Xi. The imperial army's lack of resistance and panic, and the emptiness of Yu Wenxian's mansion made Gao Xi almost certain that Yu Wenxian had left.
When it comes to the struggle between Yang Jian and Yu Wenxian, the reason why Yang Jian is on par with Yu Wenxian is mainly because of His Majesty's support. Without Yu Wenyun's helpless support, Yang Jian would have been defeated by Yu Wenxian long ago.
Therefore, Chang'an City and His Majesty are Yang Jian's biggest advantages. With such an advantage, Yang Jian can easily gain the support of a large number of courtiers. Correspondingly, Yu Wenxian has always been at a disadvantage. Therefore, if Yang Jian wants to defeat Yu Wenxian, Chang'an must
Three-point land is naturally the best choice.
Obviously Yu Wenxian still has a glimmer of hope in persuading Yu Wenyun - perhaps because he does not know that he has become a target that His Majesty wants to get rid of quickly, or perhaps because as a lonely and important minister, Yu Wenxian does not want to run away -
- This also gave Yang Jian the capital to gradually start operations in Chang'an.
But when Yang Jian actually took action, it seemed that it was already too late.
The sound of horse hoofbeats suddenly started in front. Surrounded by a group of personal guards, Yang Jian came on horseback. Seeing the look on Gao Xi's face, he was startled. He immediately realized something and said coldly: "What's going on, Yuwen?"
Xian ran away?"
Before Gao Xi could answer, a general rushed over anxiously: "Qi Sui, Duke Qi, the palace of Prince Qi is empty. There are only a dozen old servants wearing clothes and armor, fighting stubbornly, and some maids."
and others, none of the others have been found!”
Gao Xi opened his mouth, but was speechless for a moment.
But Yang Jian only felt that his vision went dark, his grip was unstable, and he almost fell off the horse.
"My lord!" The guards rushed forward to help, but Yang calmed down: "Send the order and start the search immediately. With His Majesty's decree here, it is justifiable for us to arrest Yu Wenxian. There is nothing to be afraid of, even if
I have to dig three feet into the ground of Chang'an City to find this person!"
"No!" The generals did not dare to be vague and galloped on their horses.
After a while, Yang Jian was left with only a few personal guards and Gao Xi.
"Zhaoxuan (Gao Xi's cousin), why don't you go?" Yang Jian soon spotted the figure standing next to him.
And Gao Xi smiled bitterly: "My lord, you don't have to think about it to know that this must have been planned by Yu Wenxian a long time ago. Although most of Yu Wenxian's family members are still in Luoyang and Yecheng, there are still many advisers and staff in the mansion.
, and there are so many guards in the mansion that none of them can be seen. This must not be accomplished overnight, so if we want to catch him, it is basically impossible."
After a pause, Gao Xi said in a deep voice: "Yu Wenxian must have someone else helping him."
Yang Jian's face became increasingly gloomy and he nodded slightly. Just yesterday, Yu Wenxian was arguing with Yang Jian in the court and refused to give in. Today, he has disappeared in the blink of an eye. In addition to smelling some rumors, there must be someone secretly persuading and helping.
Yu Wenxian is not the kind of person who is good at intrigues, and Yang Jian knows this very well, otherwise Yu Wenxian would not have been at a disadvantage in the court battle for such a long time, and he would not even be able to gain a little trust from Yu Wenyun.
This is why Yang Jian is very confident about capturing Yu Wenxian in Chang'an City.
But now Yu Wenxian is able to sense the danger in advance and even prepare for it, which shows that someone must be helping him.
"Check, find out whoever it is!" Yang Jian frowned and said coldly.
And Gao Xi couldn't help but smile bitterly: "My lord, is there any need to investigate? Who in this huge city of Chang'an can take away a figure like King Qi from under our noses? You should also think so."
clear."
Yang Jian clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. How could he not know the answer?
"These Guanzhong aristocratic families really give me face." Yang Jian said coldly.
In Chang'an city, only the Guanzhong family with tentacles in every corner can bring so many people out so quietly. Among the Guanzhong family, whether it is the Yang family of Hongnong, the Li family of Longxi, the Yu family of Lantian, etc.,
There are too many cronies and even direct descendants of the clan in the army and Chang'an City, so this is not a difficult problem for them.
This made Yang Jian feel a little powerless, and the expression of Gao Xi beside him became more solemn.
Yang Jian himself was only from the Han clan in Shandong, but he inferred from his family tree that he was a descendant of the Hongnong Yang family. The Hongnong Yang family did not object to having such an outstanding descendant, and even took the initiative to recognize Yang Jian's identity, which ultimately made Yang Jian
It was easy to enter the Guanlong Group's system, but now Yang Jian faintly sensed something was wrong.
The Guanlong Group seems to have changed. It is no longer the group that fully supported him and would not hide anything from him. Even the Hongnong Yang family has repeatedly avoided him. This made Yang Jian very angry. He felt
He has become an abandoned son of the Guanzhong family, and it is obvious that the Guanzhong family has found a better support object.
From now on, it seems that this support object is Yu Wenxian.
This also made Yang Jian even more puzzled. He had an absolute advantage over the court and had His Majesty's support. How could he be worse than Yu Wenxian?
It is said that Yu Wenxian has many soldiers and horses outside, but without Yu Wenxian's command, these soldiers and horses are nothing short of a piece of loose sand. Whether Wang Gui or Yu Chijiong, they are all arrogant masters. When Yu Wenxian
After leaving, they will definitely not obey each other's orders. Moreover, Yang Jian has great righteousness and His Majesty's will here, so he is not afraid that these people will not obey orders.
Therefore, as long as Yu Wenxian can be captured, Yang Jian is confident that he can reorganize the internal affairs of the Northern Zhou Dynasty in a short period of time. Then, whether it is Li Xingchen of Bashu or Nan Chen of Jiangnan, even if they join forces, how can they control the entire country?
Comparing the Central Plains, Guanzhong and the Northern Zhou Dynasty in the fertile land of Hebei? Even though Li Xingchen has been rumored to be a miracle, Yang Jian is still confident that he can defeat him.
After all, my heart is at the highest position from beginning to end.
