What a transgression. If someone hears this, what will happen?
Wang Gong stood up nervously and looked around, fearing that someone might eavesdrop. Wang Zhenying held her cheek and let him fiddle with it for a while.
Then he said: "Brother, forget it."
"There are only you and me in this hall now, no one will eavesdrop!"
Wang Gong did not give up and checked it again.
Finally, I found that no one was there, so I sat down peacefully.
"Say it!"
"how do you want to do it?"
It seems this is the default.
No matter, as long as you make your intentions clear, it doesn't matter even if he doesn't admit it.
"It is impossible for me to control Your Majesty with women. You have seen Zhang Guiren's attitude. I am definitely no match for her, and I don't even bother to be her enemy."
"However, rather than getting close to His Majesty and letting the Sima family obey the Wang family's orders, wouldn't it be better to let us directly have the final say?"
"you mean……"
Wang Gong didn't dare to speak anymore. A wave of cold air hit him from behind. The palace door was closed tightly, and it was not a cool palace.
Wang Gong still felt that the soles of his feet were getting cold.
Zhenying studied her brother's expression, with a hint of shock and cowardice in her nervousness.
No!
Could it be that in the elder brother's plan, this step has not been thought of?
There is no other choice but to talk in code words.
"That's what brother wants."
"Brother, Zhenying actually thinks this is the best."
"It's good for you, and it's good for me. If you can achieve your goal in one step, I will also avoid being left out. From now on, I can live leisurely according to my own ideas."
"If the eldest brother agrees with me, we, brother and sister, can work together towards this goal."
"If only I could do this!"
"Can do this!"
After experiencing the initial shock, Wang Gong felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling.
He stood up and circled around the hall excitedly.
Wang Zhenying's hint was clear enough, and Wang Gong could completely understand her intention. If she skipped assisting Sima Yao and directly achieved the goal of taking charge of the government, there would be nothing more wonderful than this.
He turned around sharply and met Wang Zhenying's smiling and staring eyes.
With my sister's cooperation, achieving that goal is not out of reach.
"If the empress is willing to cooperate, then in the near future, the empress will have a different title!"
Wang Gong was extremely excited when he thought of such a prospect.
Zhenying even felt that he seemed to be an restless rabbit now, which was completely different from the dejected look he had when he first walked in.
Wang Gong jumped to his sister's side and whispered in her ear: "Congratulations in advance, Queen Mother."
…………
The night was low, covered by dark clouds, and the stars and moon were gone.
A bunker stands on the wilderness. This bunker is huge in scale. The city wall is eight feet high. There are independent turrets protruding from the four corners of the tower. In the faint firelight, it can be vaguely seen that the sentries are walking back and forth without stopping for a moment.
.
It's like this on the tower, and it's the same below.
There were ten soldiers guarding the city gate, one on the left and one on the right. The night was dark, and the polished armor no longer glowed.
"The weather is bad tonight and the moon is not bright. Please be energetic!"
The heavily guarded fortress is majestic and majestic, but it does not belong to Xiangyang City, nor is it loyal to the Jin Dynasty.
This is the Victory Fort, the largest among dozens of forts scattered in major valleys and mountain margins south of Xiangyang City.
How could Victory Castle develop to such a scale under the eyes of the greedy and powerful Di Qin?
All because of a good site selection.
Victory Fort is built on a mountain, and the terrain of the mountain it relies on is very different from other mountain ranges.
The foot of the mountain extends to halfway up the mountain, and the trend is still very steep. But halfway up the mountain, the terrain suddenly slows down.
The mountainside part turned out to be a large open space with flat terrain and dense vegetation.
Victory Fort was built on this open space. This geographical location made Victory Fort easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Liu Fang, the owner of the castle, is a man with hands and eyes that can reach the sky, long sleeves and good dancing.
Liu Fang was not satisfied with occupying such a good place as Victory Fort, but instead worked harder to consolidate his power.
Not only did he establish a good relationship with the Di Qin troops in Xiangyang City in order to avoid being annexed, he also worked hard to recruit troops. So far, the Victory Fort, which originally had only a few hundred people, has expanded to 5,000 people!
The ability of such a powerful force to maintain its independence under the control of Di Qin all depended on the correct strategic policy of the fortress leader Liu Fang.
The situation was chaotic, and Liu Fang adopted an offensive and defensive approach to maintain Wubao's operations.
Since the chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty, tens of thousands of people have been displaced and have become the targets of plunder by powerful powers.
Their lives are difficult and difficult, and have long since reached the point of being unsustainable.
The villagers who had no means of living took the initiative to form teams. They wandered in the vast Central Plains in groups, and finally took refuge in the more powerful Wubao, barely surviving.
Wubao is a self-defense architectural form for ordinary people. The villagers in Wubao receive certain military training and are responsible for repelling invaders during wartime. In peacetime, they farm within the Wubao area.
This kind of half-farmer, half-military situation means that Wubao's combat effectiveness is generally not very strong. Even if it is of considerable size, it can only be used for defense and cannot attack.
However, the reason why Desheng Fort can stand out from hundreds of Wubao is precisely because the fort owner Liu Fang adopted the policy of both attacking and defending.
In the past seven or eight years, Desheng Fort has annexed dozens of surrounding small Wubao, and all the original villagers of Wubao have moved to Desheng Fort.
At this point, Victory Fort has completed the process of development and growth, and has successfully entered the vision of Di Qin, who has occupied Xiangyang City for several years.
How to continue to survive has become a problem for Fort Victory.
With their current strength, they cannot become an important force that shakes the Di Qin defenders in Xiangyang. However, the huge scale of the Victory Fort cannot allow him to hide behind it.
After much deliberation, Liu Fang had no choice but to lead the villagers in the fort to surrender to Di Qin to a limited extent.
In principle, Victory Fort was still under the jurisdiction of Liu Fang. Liu Fang declared allegiance to Di Qin. However, Di Qin was an invading foreign nation with a very small number. They only occupied important military towns, which was not enough, and they were unable to penetrate deep into military towns.
Among the surrounding forts.
Liu Fang's choice was in line with Di Qin's wishes.
The two sides hit it off immediately, and the Victory Fort was able to survive the frequent wars around Xiangyang City.
Di Qin's delegation of power also gave Liu Fang the possibility of further operations.
The ambitious Fu Jian was busy opening up new territories and had not yet spared his time to manage these fortresses that had taken the initiative to seek refuge.
He also did not send court officials to jointly manage the affairs of the Victory Fort with Liu Fang, so that the local emperor in the Victory Fort was still Liu Fang.
Liu Fang longed for a strong force to help him pull out of the quagmire.
Thanks to the strength of Victory Fort, the area around the fortress is currently peaceful and less ravaged by war.
The soldiers responsible for guarding the city gate were concentrating and did not dare to relax. The fortress owner Liu Fang had warned them that there might not be peace around Xiangyang City in the near future.
They must keep their eyes open and report any unusual movements to Liu Fang as long as they feel suspicious.
As far as the soldiers could see, a carriage was swaying towards Fort Victory...
