Chapter 209
Ze Feng's face showed signs of decay that were visible to the naked eye, and it turned into the appearance of a man whose life was not long gone before.
"My lord, it is not a pity for my subordinates to die, but now that my lord is alone and helpless, it is not a pity for my subordinates to die."
Hefeng tightly grasped Jun Xian's clothes, "I can't continue to do things for you, but now the emperor is still investigating the Ministry of War, and further investigation will definitely find you. The prime minister's matter is an opportunity, which may divert the emperor's attention. Attention. Your Majesty, General Wen regards you as a confidant, and I’m afraid I need his help in this matter.”
Hefeng finished speaking with difficulty, coughing and vomiting blood.
Jun Xian said with a dark face, "I planned to ask you to go to the border town, tell Wen Xi the news about the person Xie Qianlan is looking for, and then let Wen Juan know about it through Wen Yuan's mouth. I will have another night of drinking with Ah Juan. If I take the initiative to reveal that I have heard about this matter, Ah Juan will definitely discuss it with me, and if I persuade him to tell Xie Qianlan, I can extract the Sixth Prince's Mansion from it."
Jun Xian punched the ground, "But Wen Yuan actually cut off my king's men!"
Hefeng said: "The general somehow found our people in the border town and did not allow our people to contact Princess Dantang. I don't know whether he told the emperor about this. Yue Fuling has also betrayed, and the court is willing to support the prince. Officials have been replaced one after another. Your Majesty, there are cliffs as far as the eye can see, we can no longer retreat."
"I have no intention of quitting, I just haven't found the right opportunity."
Now it seems that Jun Jing is going to win this game between the courtiers and the new emperor.And he won quietly, leaving him no chance to interfere.
"Prime Minister." He Feng's eyes were fierce, "The Prime Minister doesn't know how to use martial arts. Although he is extremely resourceful, he has weaknesses. Start with him. Prince, start with him! You can't be soft-hearted anymore! The Prime Minister also knows about the Ministry of War. If he finds out anything, he will definitely I won’t help you hide it, he prefers the Emperor now, Your Majesty.”
Jun Xian comforted him, "I know this. You can rest in peace and recuperate. Get rid of Xie Qianlan first. I know what's going on."
After calling the doctor to see He Feng's injuries, Jun Xian went to the general's mansion.
Wen Juan was fighting with new recruits at the training ground in his backyard. He was sweating profusely. When he saw Jun Xian, he smiled brightly and said, "Sixth Prince."
Jun Xian picked up a handkerchief and handed it over with a warm smile, "As expected of General Wen, after training the new soldiers, why not train yourself?"
Wen Juan wiped his sweat in embarrassment, "Your Majesty, please stop teasing me. There have been a lot of things lately, and I feel like I haven't seen you in a long time."
Jun Xian said half-jokingly: "Now that you have become good friends with the Prime Minister, how can you still remember me as an old friend?"
Wen Juan asked people to serve tea to Jun Xian and joked: "I don't know who you are offending when the Sixth Prince says this? The Prime Minister and you have been friends since childhood, so we are old friends."
Jun Xian laughed, "Ah Juan is so talkative now, it's hard to bully him."
He held the tea, looked at Wen Juan for a while, and said: "I remember that in the past, because the Wen family was the head of the military generals, and the prime minister was always classified as a civil official, your relationship with Qian Lan was at most an acquaintance. Now, Why are you so good all of a sudden? My people have seen you go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to look for him several times, but you didn't come to look for me."
Wen Juan smiled and said, "I don't know why, but I always feel enlightened when talking to the Prime Minister, as if he can clear away the clouds and fog for me with a few words. Even when I stay quietly by his side, I feel calm.
Moreover, although it is the default rule of all dynasties for the prime minister to be classified as a civil servant, Prime Minister Xie is also well aware of the situation of military commanders. He knows a lot about the Ministry of War. There are some details that I don’t think I need to care about. He also wants to find me. After questioning, the final decision was made and presented to the Holy One.According to the series of new laws set by the Prime Minister, we can imagine that life of our generals will be much easier in the future.The reason for the visits these days is all because of this matter. "
Jun Xian said: "Qian Lan has always been like this, gentle and careful. But I am worried that he will be taken advantage of by others with his temper."
Wen Juan asked doubtfully, "But what happened?"
Jun Xian frowned and was silent for a long time, then looked at Wen Juan.
Wen Juan said: "If the Prime Minister needs me for anything, Wen Juan will not hesitate to do anything. Or is it inconvenient for outsiders to know about this? Then don't talk about it, Your Majesty."
Jun Xian shook his head seriously, "It's not something that can't be said. It's just that Qian Lan has been looking for someone. That person is very important to him. I want to help, but Qian Lan didn't take the initiative to mention this. I can only investigate secretly.
Unexpectedly, after this investigation, it was discovered that the man was Feng Yi's spy and had always been in contact with Emperor Jin Yan.You have also seen before that Emperor Jin Yan has an unusual attitude towards the Prime Minister. I am afraid there are many inside stories that you and I don't know about. "
Wen Juan frowned, "Your Majesty, you mean that the Prime Minister secretly took refuge in Jin Yan and betrayed Feng Yi?"
Jun Xian looked deeply at Wen Juan with sincerity in his eyes, "Ah Juan, you and I have been close friends for many years. Let me tell you the truth. Now I really don't know whether I should believe Qian Lan or not. As you said, I have known him since childhood, but you also know that the Xie family was destroyed overnight. He disappeared for a while, and then appeared on the eve of the emperor’s accession to the throne. I don’t know why the emperor trusted him so much, but the destruction of the Xie family was related to the separation of the father and the emperor. It doesn’t matter, even if the emperor has changed now, his surname is still Jun, does Qian Lan really have no resentment in his heart?"
Wen Juan frowned, "The Prime Minister... doesn't look like that kind of person. Could it be that the Prime Minister didn't know that the person he was looking for was a spy? Maybe the Prime Minister was also deceived."
"Yes, I thought so before, but the appearance of Emperor Jin Yan made me think more. You should know that Emperor Jin Yan relies entirely on killing people to govern the country. Who would have been too opposed to him when he first came to the throne? It was so fierce that he would die within three days, so he could secure the throne. This man has just reached the throne and is not good at concealing his thoughts. There must be some reason for him to be close to Qian Lan. "
Wen Juan lowered his eyes and thought, "Except for the big banquet that night, when Emperor Jin Yan went to have a drink with the prime minister, the two of them didn't seem to interact with each other at other times. Did the prince think too much?"
"Ah Juan, you always think of people too simply." Jun Xian said, "Do you still remember that Master Du Shi suddenly attacked Qian Lan at the Weiqiao meeting?"
Wen Juan nodded, "Remember, Eunuch Yue reacted quickly and protected the prime minister."
Jun Xian said: "But I can clearly see that at that moment the Golden Flame Emperor also tried to block Qian Lan, but Yue... Xiaoyuezi was closer and faster, and he didn't have time."
Wen Juan: "So Jin Yan Emperor's attitude towards the Prime Minister is unusual."
"Exactly. The person Qian Lan has been looking for has something to do with Emperor Jin Yan, and Emperor Jin Yan treats him differently, so I have to think more." Jun Xian looked worried, "I don't know if I should tell the emperor about this. , The Emperor has great trust in Qianlan, the three of us grew up together, it’s really..."
Wen Juan said: "If the Sixth Prince cannot intervene in this matter, then I will remind the Emperor."
Jun Xian was overjoyed in his heart, but had a heavy expression on his face, "The emperor trusts Qian Lan now, and there is no basis for what he says. I am thinking that I will either secretly reveal to him the information about the spy Qian Lan is looking for. If he is really related to that The spies are connected, let's take the stolen goods individually, and with witnesses, the emperor can make a decision."
Wen Juan nodded, "That makes sense. It's a matter of state, so be cautious. I can help spread the news, and then secretly follow the Prime Minister, but I still don't inform the Emperor. If you misunderstand the Prime Minister, you can blame me at most, so that the Emperor and the Prime Minister will not be separated. Heart."
Jun Xian was so excited that his heart beat faster. Seeing that Wen Juan was so easy to talk to, he couldn't help but want to go further, "Ah Juan, have you ever thought about whether the emperor, like Qian Lan, has already taken refuge in the Golden Flame Kingdom?"
Wen Juan broke out in a cold sweat. He looked around and saw that no one was around. He couldn't help but lower his voice, "Your Majesty, you can't say such nonsense? What reason does the Emperor have for doing this?"
Jun Xian sounded a little anxious and said: "The situation of the three kingdoms coexisting cannot be maintained forever. In the past, some people in the Feng Yi Dynasty thought that Feng Yi would eventually surrender to Yuan Chen and form an alliance with him. But you also know that today's Holy Emperor, my king's nine My younger brother has always hated his father the most. When his father wanted to form an alliance with Yuan Chen, he refused Yuan Chen and even rejected Yuan Chen's marriage.
But Jinyan has a solid foundation and Yuanchen's agricultural development is strong. Only Fengyi can be self-sufficient because of Xiaoyuezi in most areas, but Fengyi's territory is so large that it will be impossible to catch up with the other two countries for a while.During this period, the emperor was looking for an ally, and it could only be Jin Yan. "
Wen Juan's brows almost knotted, "How could that be? The Emperor has always valued Feng Yi's independence. He said that no matter how hard it was, Feng Yi could not rely on other countries. Once the forces of other countries penetrated Feng Yi, no matter how hard it was, Feng Yi would be eliminated. It’s even more difficult.”
Jun Xian smiled bitterly, "Everyone can say something, but no one knows what the final choice will be."
He observed Wen Juan's expression, "I know that the Wen family is fighting to the death to protect the country and is protecting Feng Yi's independence. If the emperor really chooses Jin Yan, Juan, what will you choose?"
Wen Juan shook his head, "It's impossible, I believe in the emperor."
Jun Xian didn't want to waste all his efforts, Wen Juan was simple-minded and focused on the battlefield, and the relationship between the two was easy to persuade.
Xie Qianlan's affairs were settled, and he planted the seeds of doubting Jun Jing, making Wen Juan determined that once Jun Jing really formed an alliance with Jin Yan in a dependent manner, the Wen family would not be so loyal to Jun Jing.
Jun Xian's palms felt hot. He wanted to get more at once, and it was best to let Wen Juan support his succession.
Jun Xian was heartbroken and said, "I know that Ah Juan is loyal to the Jun family, but I am also a member of the Jun family, and the royal family knows each other's true thoughts best. Ah Juan, do you know that the emperor has changed now?" .”
Wen Juan looked at Jun Xian, "What do you mean?"
Jun Xian smiled painfully, "I didn't want to talk about this at first, but I don't want you to be deceived all the time. The emperor loves Xiaoyuezi excessively, not because she is a farming genius, but because she is a woman. The emperor is now addicted to women, He has lost his original ambition, he no longer wants to support Feng Yi's independence, he has changed!"
