"Zhiyuan!"

"wait!"

Xie An's voice penetrated the air and came straight towards Wang Mi. He stopped on his feet and screamed inwardly.

Tsk tsk...

As the saying goes, you can run away from the monk, but you can't run away from the temple.

How could I have forgotten that Lao Xie also has a mouth? He is a highly respected person. If he calls you, do you dare not stop?

Sure enough, he could only turn around slowly and show a fake smile.

Wang Mi stopped, but Liu Yu and the others were stuck in a dilemma of choice.

what to do?

Should we two brothers follow or not?

Wang Mi was also very worried. Xie An was definitely going to make trouble when he called him, but what Xie An was talking about must be related to court politics.

It is not appropriate to tell Liu Yu all the inside stories of the court now. It is even better if he knows nothing about them.

"Two generals, I have something to say to my son-in-law. Can you please step aside?"

Wang Mi was stunned when he heard this. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, he thanked the old man for helping him!

When Xie An spoke, the two of them did not dare to disobey, so they turned around and left, taking Shen Suanzi with them. On the path of Jiankang Palace, only Xie An and Wang Mi were left.

Of course, out of their sight, under a tung tree not far away, Shen Suanzi's cunning eyes were also exposed.

How could she give up such a great opportunity to watch the excitement?

If Liu Yu and the others want to leave, just leave. Anyway, they two can't be her boss!

Moreover, Liu Yu also had his own thoughts here.

What on earth do Zhiyuan and the others want to talk about?

It seemed that Xie An didn't want the two brothers from Jingkou to know, but as a close minister of Wang Zhiyuan, Liu Yu thought that he still had a need to know.

Will there be any topics about the construction of Beifu, or even related to Liu Yu?

Leave Shen Suanzi here to eavesdrop. There will always be one more source of information in the future.

You see, the difference between Liu Yu and Tan Pingzhi is this. If the same thing happened to Tan Pingzhi, he would not bother to think about it carefully, just pat his butt and leave.

However, Liu Yu would never be so naive.

How can Jiankang City be built like a dragon and a tiger's den if we don't plan for ourselves?

However, you can rest assured that Liu Yu's current thoughts are still limited to being a good subordinate to Wang Mi and planning for him.

That myth of self-reliance has not even a single word in it!

On Xie An's side, in order to stop Wang Mi, he had condescended to get off the sedan chair, which was a great honor.

Wang Mi followed him to the Liangfeng Pavilion outside Jiankang Palace. In fact, there was no need to avoid others.

Nowadays, no one knows that Wang Mi is Xie An's grandson-in-law. The intimacy between the two is unrivaled. It is normal for them to talk in private.

Others were just curious and had no intention of eavesdropping. What's more, Xie An was surrounded by his various servants and book boys. They seemed to be leisurely, but in fact they were all watching.

The various changes of the courtiers and eunuchs will never be hidden from their eyes.

The two sat down, Xie An frowned, showing displeasure.

Wang Mi's heart skipped a beat, this old man changed his face too quickly!

I didn't see him showing such a dissatisfied look in the court just now. It seems that Lao Xie was very dissatisfied with his performance just now!

Wang Mi looked helpless, what should he do?

He patted his chest with a clear conscience. Who cares what Xie An thought?

"Zhiyuan, why did you frequently oppose me in front of His Majesty just now?"

"You clearly know that the person I hate the most is the evil guy Wang Guobao, why do you still agree with him?"

Xie An was indignant, and Wang Mi finally realized that the most unacceptable thing for Xie An was that she agreed with Wang Guobao's suggestion intentionally or unintentionally.

Although Xie An tried his best to hide his true intentions, Wang Mi could still see at a glance that the anger against Wang Guobao was just superficial.

The failure to let his precious son occupy the important town of Jiangzhou was what made him most upset.

After figuring out the key to Xie An's attack, Wang Mi smiled happily: "Xie Gong, the process is not important, the result is the most important, isn't it?"

Xie An took a deep breath, very puzzled.

"what do you mean?"

"Do you want me to accept it when you're ready?"

Wang Mi blinked his eyes, feeling a little embarrassed. Of course he still meant the same thing, but how could he tell the truth?

Lao Xie is very angry!

He is not the kind of person who can add fuel to the fire like Wang Guobao.

"Of course not, Mr. Xie misunderstood!"

"The junior is saying that Huan Shimin is a better candidate than Xie Yan, isn't it?"

"Think about it, Mr. Xie, since the great victory at Xiangyang, almost nothing has gone well for the Huan family members in Qiaojun, especially the leader Huan Chong."

Wang Mi spread his fingers and mentioned the Huan family in Qiao County. Xie An's anger calmed down a bit and he could finally listen to Wang Mi's sophistry seriously.

"This junior came from the Xiangyang battlefield. To be fair, General Huan's performance this time was indeed outstanding. He was courageous and strategic. Although he is not young, he still works hard. These are all seen by this junior

.”

"This junior has no intention of speaking for him, but after the Battle of Xiangyang, the Beifu soldiers evacuated back to Jingkou, and Xinye County was left to General Huan."

"If it were left to the past, General Huan would definitely not have been able to capture Xinye. Maybe he would have sent his horse back to Xiangyang to defend it, which would not be surprising."

"If General Huan does that, how will the imperial court deal with him?"

Just explain, I don't know why, after all the back and forth, Wang Mi actually questioned Xie An, which made Lao Xie very uncomfortable.

He probably understood what Wang Mi was referring to, but he did not admit that there was any necessary connection between them.

"It doesn't matter. Huan Chong was unable to recapture Xiangyang City several times. The imperial court is not doing nothing."

You see, that's it.

Wang Mi nodded and continued: "So, this time General Huan was able to cheer up and capture Xinye City in one fell swoop. It must be said to be a great achievement."

"Since Mr. Xie took charge of the government, he has always made clear rewards and punishments. I believe that General Huan, who successfully captured Xinye City, is also looking forward to rewards from the court."

Are rewards and punishments clear?

Xie An frowned, since when did I have such a specialty?

Why didn't I notice it?

"However, since King Langya got the job of recording the affairs of the minister, a series of decisions made by the court are not satisfactory to the Huan family of Qiaojun."

"I wonder if Mr. Xie agrees with what this junior said."

Wang Mi raised his head and looked at Xie An with concern. No matter what, Lao Xie had to give him some face.

Otherwise, if someone turns against him and sends Xie Yan to Jiangzhou, wouldn’t Old Man Huan go crazy?

Before the external enemies are eliminated, internal troubles cannot arise first.

One thing, two things, three or four things, Xie An went through what happened these days in his mind, and he could only nod his head in a matter-of-fact manner.

"What you said makes sense."

"So, what you are saying is that I should no longer arrange for the Xie family in Jiangzhou to stimulate Huan Chong?"

Isn’t this what it should be?

Still need him to remind you?

Wang Mi was speechless, Lao Xie looked innocent, and he didn't know if he was pretending.

"Furthermore, General Xie has already obtained the power of military governor. To be fair, General Xie's qualifications may not be sufficient for this position."

Wang Mi's words go straight to the point.

It can be said that the focus of controversy in the court today is precisely here.

Wang Guobao's objection to Xie Yan's appointment as Jiangzhou governor was indeed due to personal grudges, but the reasons he raised were completely legitimate.

Like Xie Xuan, the commander-in-chief of the Chinese and foreign military forces, Xie Yan, who had no military experience, was simply not suitable for going to an important military town like Jiangzhou.

From this point of view, Xie Xuan's command of the Beifu soldiers was already too much to cope with, and all the overall power of Jiangzhou and Jingzhou was handed over to him.

Not to mention Huan Chong, even Wang Mi, who also had no experience in leading troops, would definitely not agree!

Wang Mi persuaded Xie An kindly, just to make Xie An restrain himself a little, and not to become complacent just because Huan Chong didn't resist for a while.

He wanted to take advantage of every advantage. When Huan Chong was offended and the war broke out again, he, Xie An, could not escape the blame.
