As soon as he finished speaking, there were people rushing to answer. Not only did they answer Hyun's question, they even revealed each other's history, almost digging up the other's ancestral grave and talking about it.
Facing this scene, Hyun was stunned for a moment. After knowing the news he wanted to know, he left. After these people used up the last bit of strength to fight each other, they collapsed to the ground weakly. After that, Hyun did let them sleep. Go, the purpose of these people is to slap them in the face one day in the future.
Hyun left the cell. Although he got the answer he wanted, he was even more angry.
Went to find Ning Yan. Ning Yan was also waiting here. Seeing Xuan coming in angrily, he first handed her some cold water.
Hyun poured it into his stomach in one breath, put down the cup with a bang, and said to the two of them:
"Do you know who instigated it? It's Qi Guo! Grandpa's! Qi Guo's hand can be stretched far enough!"
Qi State! This was really something the two of them didn’t expect.
Kunyu State has not had much contact with Qi State, because the border between the two countries is in Jiuqiuchi State. There are many mountains here and there are many mountains. You can’t see the edge at a glance, and the roads are not easy to walk. It’s okay if it doesn’t rain. It will rain. , which increases the risk factor. There are many bandits and the like along the way, and more guards need to be dispatched to escort them.
I don’t know who said the saying “If you want to get rich, you must first build roads”. Now I have a deep understanding of it. Without good transportation, even if you carry a shocking treasure, you still can’t transport it out or exchange it for money.
Since then, the cost and price have increased. Qi is not willing to do so, so why should the price given to Wei be lower than what is given to them? However, the road is difficult and dangerous, and Xun is not sure to hand it over to the officials at the border of Qi. , If the guarantee is not complete, some of these people are evil-hearted. They exchange the goods and then put the shit basin on Kun Yuguo's head. If there is no increase, Kunyuguo will have no profit.
For Qi State, because the two countries meet at Jiuqiuchi, the terrain is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Qi State wants Kunyu State to surrender. Under this kind of terrain, coupled with Kunyu State's powerful weapons, it is impossible to defeat the two countries at once. It can be realized at the next step, but if it fails, it will have to involve the entire Qi State. Therefore, there is no economic exchange between the two countries, only superficial envoy exchanges.
With such a relationship, it is really hard to figure out why they should be attacked.
Ning Yu thought for a while and said:
"In the past few years, the Wei State has launched southern expeditions from time to time, and the Qi State has not been at peace. Maybe they wanted to make us surrender first. In this way, they drove a nail into the Wei State's side, so that the Wei State could not conduct such a stable southern expedition."
Ning Yan sneered:
"You want us to surrender? Qi State looks down on us too much."
Ning Yan waved his hand:
"No, Qi State does not look down upon us. It is precisely because it knows that it is impossible for us to surrender, so it wants to destroy us and then support a puppet to be at the mercy of Qi State."
Ning Yan thought for a while and said:
"Uncle Huang is right, but how did their people get in? We have obviously strengthened our defenses."
The two of them looked at Hyun in unison.
Ning Yun's analysis just now, Hyun couldn't get a word in, and was stunned for a while. Now he has a chance to speak.
He coughed lightly and said:
"Those people only said that someone came to meet them. Except when they entered the border, they disguised themselves as ordinary people. After entering Kunyu Kingdom, they had an unimpeded journey. Even when they arrived in the capital, they only needed to cover up at the city gate to come in. , it went very smoothly after that, they could do whatever they wanted, no one came to check, but they didn’t know who was responding to them.”
Ning Yan said:
"It seems that this person's position is not low."
Ning Yan then said:
"Who knows Hyun's identity, which one has a lower position?"
Ning Yan glanced at Xun and sighed softly:
"The emperor's sister-in-law has done so much for Kun Yuguo, why can't they see it?! They have to catch the emperor's sister-in-law and not let her go."
Hyun stroking her hair:
"I have a face filled with hatred."
Ning Yan and Ning Yan both rolled their eyes at her.
After Emperor Sejong Xuanwu Yuan Ke succeeded to the throne, in addition to inheriting the Chinese system of his father Emperor Xiaowen Yuan Hong, he also inherited his father's desire to continue the southern expedition and continued to fight Rouran in the north. However, at this time, Rouran's strength was already greatly reduced. Before that, the northern border of the Northern Wei Dynasty could finally be considered leisurely. Yuan Ke also abolished the "son is valued until mother dies" system.
Yuan Ke suddenly received a letter from Kun Yu State. Yuan Ke did some calculations on his fingers. Before the transaction was completed, he was confused about the result of the letter. It turned out that Kun Yu State took the initiative to assist Wei State in attacking Qi State.
At the junction of Kunyu State and Qi State, it would be useless for either side to move first. Therefore, the two countries have always been in a superficial state of peace. Yuan Ke did not understand why he suddenly wanted to assist Wei State?
Beihai Wang Yuanxiang, one of the "Six Assistants" said:
"I heard that the royal family and upper-level officials of the Kunyu Kingdom have been assassinated recently. Could it be that the Qi Kingdom was behind it?"
Yuan Ke's eyes lit up and he read the letter carefully:
Yes, why did you forget about this! If Qi State did it, then it is not difficult to explain why Kun Yu State suddenly took the initiative to assist us. With their help, we can save a lot of effort.
Although I was very happy, I still asked "Liu Fu":
"It is good for us to have Kun Yu Kingdom join us, but what do you think? Should we let Kun Yu Kingdom join us?"
Wang Yuanxiang of Beihai, General Wang Su of Zhennan, Wang Yuanjia of Guangyang, Shangshu Song Bian, Taiwei Gongxi, and Wang Yuancheng of Rencheng discussed it and agreed that Kun Yu's joining would get twice the result with half the effort, so they agreed to Kun Yu's joining.
Yuan Ke Le Dian Dian ordered someone to write a reply.
After Ning Yan received the letter, he discussed the dispatch of troops with Ning Yu, Brother Yue Zheng, Jiang Wu and other military attachés.
Eunuch Hao came in and said:
"Your Majesty, General Zhuo would like to see you."
Everyone in the room seemed to see the sun coming out of the west, and looked at Eunuch Hao in surprise.
Ning Yan stuttered and said:
"Then, let her come in."
After Xun came in, Ning Yan asked in confusion:
"Does General Zhuo have any ideas?"
Hyun nodded and said:
"Yes, I sincerely ask you to lead the entire army this time."
Ning Yan was still a little confused and said:
"That's okay. Who does General Zhuo want to assist?"
Hyun said categorically:
"No, I can do it myself, and you only need to give me five hundred people."
As soon as these words came out, the room instantly became quiet. It was so quiet that you could hear a needle drop. It was so quiet that you could even hear an insect crawling.
Ning Yan rubbed his eyebrows:
"General Zhuo, this is not an outing, no joke."
Even with the powerful weapons and army of Kunyu Kingdom, five hundred people is a bit too childish.
Hyun said without giving in:
"I'm not kidding. The Qi State is so aggressive this time. I must give them some gifts in return!"
Ning Yan looked at Ning Feng as if asking for help. Ning Fang sighed secretly and said to Xun:
"Such a big thing should not be treated as a joke."
Hyun looked at Ning Yu:
"I'm not kidding."
Ning Yan suddenly felt a headache, got up and walked to her:
"General Zhuo, let's go out and talk."
Hyun wanted to talk to Ning Yan, but Ning Yan glared at her, so Hyun had to go out with Ning Yan.
After going out, Hyun was very dissatisfied and said:
"You glare at me!"
Ning Yu used the cover of her clothes to hold Hyun's hand:
"There are others inside. There's no guarantee they won't spread the news about us." He paused for a moment and said thoughtfully, "It seems that the lady doesn't want me to stare. How about I carry the lady out next time?"
Hyun choked and rolled his eyes.
Ning Fang approached Hyun and asked in a low voice:
"How do you want to fight with five hundred people?"
Speaking of this matter, Hyun Le leaned close to Ning Xin and said with gleaming eyes:
"Have you ever seen the power of firecrackers?"
Ning Yan nodded and continued to wait for her next post.
Hyun still looked at Ning Yan with burning eyes:
"Actually, the power of firecrackers goes beyond this. It can easily move mountains and reclaim seas."
Ning Feng couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Hyun snorted very proudly:
"This time the Qi State dared to pull out the tiger's beard, so why don't I retaliate to them? That cute baby Xiao Baojuan can't control his own hands, so I will reluctantly discipline him for him."
After saying that, she spread her hands helplessly, shook her head as if reluctantly, and made Ning Fang raise his hand to scratch her nose.
Ning Yan originally wanted to ask Ning Yu to give up Xu's idea, but in the end, Ning Yu volunteered to be Xu's deputy general. Facing the couple, Ning Yan couldn't say a word, so he waved his hand for them to go down and make preparations.
From that day on, Hyun has been nesting in a side room in the backyard, and told them not to come near it. She only eats after she comes out to eat. Ning Fang asked her what she was doing, but Hyun said mysteriously. Ning Yan didn't ask about the secret. Anyway, when she figured it out, he would know what she was doing.
The Wei State is also discussing sending troops.
After the death of his father Qi Ming Emperor Xiao Luan, Xiao Baojuan ascended the throne in 498 and became the sixth emperor of Qi. However, this cute baby was arrogant and extravagant, doting on Concubine Pan, appointing traitors, inheriting his father's precepts, and treating the prime minister If the ministers were dissatisfied, they would be executed immediately, forcing the civil servants to resign and the generals to rebel. The capital was in danger several times and internal conflicts were intensified.
In such an environment where everyone was in danger, in 500 AD, King Xiao Yaoguang of Shi'an, Lieutenant Chen Xianda, and General Cui Huijing of Pingxi successively launched rebellions, but they were all defeated and killed.
Although he was killed, chaos had already formed, and Yuan Ke would take advantage of the chaos to attack.
When the news of the southern expedition was sent to Kunyu Kingdom, Xiun had been nesting in the backyard for several months, smelling of sulfur. After receiving the news, he took the 500 people he had selected and marched to Luoyang together with Ning Yu and Ning Meng. Set off.
This puzzled all the civil and military officials of Kunyu Kingdom. Except for Ning Yu, there was no other general, but they brought Ning Meng with them. Looking at the several vehicles full of goods behind them, everyone looked at each other. This can't be the case. Wei Guo, are you assembling something on the spot?
However, Ning Yan didn't even say anything to ask, so they had no choice but to hold back the mountains of questions.
Not to mention the civil and military officials of Kun Yu State, after arriving in Luoyang, the mighty officials of Wei State were also stunned. They totaled less than 600 people. Did Kun Yu State really want to help? (To be continued)
