Chapter eight hundred and seventy first wave of unrest and another wave
Xie Xiang occupied Wang Mi's place. Wang Mi looked around. Disturbed by the waves of visitors, the night was getting deeper and deeper. It would even be dawn in two hours.
.
I'm afraid I won't get any sleep this time.
It doesn't even matter whether you sleep or not.
The army will face its most critical moment tomorrow. Whether they can rush back to Jiankang as soon as possible depends on this!
He was already nervous and excited, and things happened one after another. Wang Mi couldn't think of sleeping. Of course, he must cheer up and take stock of tomorrow's important events.
Take a break by the way.
There was silence around the military tent, and there was almost no sound of talking. It could be seen that the soldiers had fallen into a deep sleep.
Wang Shilang also wanted to sleep very much. Only when he had a good rest could he be in a good mental state.
Unfortunately, he couldn't sleep at all.
He was obviously very tired, but he didn't feel sleepy at all.
However, just when Shilang Wang hoped to take a break, Zeng Jing, who had just arrived on duty outside the tent, turned back.
As soon as he saw his worried face, Wang Mi's heart tightened again.
No!
What happened again?
Xie Xuan's death was a huge blow.
Even if the Jin army successfully passes the test of Xuzhou City tomorrow, they still don't know what kind of complicated situation they will face when they return to Jiankang.
Moreover, according to Xie An's instructions, they could not even return to Jiankang immediately and had to stay in Jingkou.
This time, the situation will only become more complicated.
However, Wang Mi had to consider Xie An's suggestion. Besides, in front of the aggressive Wang Gong, it was indeed a better way to temporarily stop at Jingkou.
However, the arrival of Zeng Jing quickly shattered Wang Mi's little extravagant hopes, and he didn't know what he wanted.
Or is it not a good time to migrate today, and he still insists on going his own way, causing troubles one after another?
When Zeng Jing entered the tent, he felt a little embarrassed.
This night, anyone who has anything to do with him seems to be in big trouble and nothing good will happen.
But you can't blame him. In fact, there are too many troublesome people in this world, which bring troubles. He is just the one responsible for delivering news. If there is good news, can he hide it?
He walked quickly to Wang Mi and looked at his helpless expression, feeling very embarrassed himself.
Why are these people from Jiankang so blind?
We had to squeeze it all into one day, and not just one day, but even the same night to get here outside Xuzhou City.
Have you made an appointment?
Can't you let us, Mr. Wang, have a good sleep?
There are still big things to do tomorrow!
However, it is obvious that the people from Jiankang have already come, and we cannot send them back, or simply turn them away.
"Shilang Wang, people from Wang Gong's residence are here."
Wang Gong?
Wang Aning?
Wang Mi suddenly jumped up from his seat. Why was he still sleeping? He was not sleepy at all.
Not to mention him, even the little baby Xie Xiang, who had been asleep for a long time, was woken up.
When I heard that it was someone from Wang Gong's house, the expression on his face was very panic.
"Let him in quickly!"
I am really afraid of what will happen. I was still talking about it just now. The situation is already so chaotic. Wang Gong should not cause any more trouble.
He just popped out.
"Sir, what else does Wang Gong want to do?"
"Didn't he already order the army to return to Jiankang quickly?"
"The minister also did as he was told. Does he still have any dissatisfaction?"
Zeng Jing went out to call someone, and Xie Xiang also came over. When he mentioned Wang Gong, his tone was very bad. He was a child, and his likes and dislikes of people were very simple.
There are almost no twists and turns.
Xie An hates Wang Gong. As Xie An's most trusted follower, he certainly won't like him either.
This is only one of the reasons why Xie Xiang hates Wang Gong, the second reason comes from himself.
At that time, when Xie Xuan was seriously ill, he did not see Wang Gong move a little bit and came to Xie's house to visit his colleagues.
And when Xie Xuan passed away, Wang Gong's behavior became even more incredible.
Not only should he be devastated, but he should at least come to express condolences, and what about him?
Not only did he not do any of these things, he even closed the door of the palace and no one disappeared!
By doing this, he simply did not take Chenjun Xie seriously.
He, Wang Gong, is arrogant!
There are also no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are kings.
If Xie An were ten years younger, there would be no room for Wang Gong to dance around, and this court would never be occupied by someone like him.
Xie Xiang made full use of this small opportunity and gave Wang Gong a solid black presence in front of Wang Mi.
In fact, Xie Xiang didn't have to be so anxious in the first place. Now Wang Mi also hates Wang Gong very much, and even more so than the Xie family.
This is about Wang Mi personally.
After all, they were still friends before!
Just because he has the ability to attack cities and seize territory, Wang Gong keeps trying to make things difficult for him and obstruct him in various ways. Is this what a man does?
Although the last few major families, as well as the newly established generals, will probably go their separate ways.
But it’s not the time yet.
Wang Mi was charging forward. In fact, his requirements for Wang Gong were not high at all. As long as he could sit in the central court and stabilize the situation.
Just provide him with a stable rear area.
For Wang Mi now, he doesn't even expect the court to provide him with money and people, as long as it doesn't hold him back.
However, even such a small wish cannot be realized.
Not only did Wang Gong not give him support, he always jumped out to disrupt the situation.
It is becoming more and more difficult to disrupt the originally clear situation. Does he not know how hard and dangerous it is to fight in the north?
If he can do it, he can go too!
Unfortunately, Wang Mi didn't have to confront Wang Gong to know that he would definitely not dare to go into battle in person.
If he had that kind of ability, he would have recalled Wang Mi long ago and commanded Beifu himself!
Maybe this idea is still not enough.
Stepping into the military camp and giving up his controlling position in the central court, Wang Gongcai did not bother to do this kind of thing to make a profit at a loss.
If Sima Yao was still there, maybe he would still have this idea, but once Sima Yao left, he would have his own girls in the harem to cooperate with him, and he could take all the affairs of the Jin Dynasty into his own hands in the outer court.
How could he not take advantage of such a great situation?
It is simply impossible to risk one's life and come to the north to fight a bitter war. What if, what if one accidentally breaks it?
After all, Wang Gong is not Wang Mi. He has the halo of the protagonist and the blessing of time travel, so his mood is understandable.
But understanding does not mean that he is not angry, so before he saw Wang Gong's envoy, Wang Mi had already accumulated a lot of bad energy.
Not to mention, the envoy sent by Wang Gong turned out to be a member of his Taiyuan Wang family!
He also paid too little attention to the imperial court and Wang Mi.
Are these people in the court all blind and fools, and are they just letting Wang Gong do whatever he wants?
During the late Jin Dynasty and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, due to the disorder in the court, the control over local areas was not strong, and the ministers in the court were basically in a state of letting go. The royal family basically had to show courtesy to those powerful ministers who were in charge of important affairs of the court, and there was no need at all.
Dare to take care of it.
Therefore, many important matters in the court did not need to be delivered to those who needed to know about them through formal edicts.
Many state affairs can be settled by just a few exchanges of private letters between the powerful officials of these big families.
However, Wang Gong's approach is still relatively rare.
The order he gave to Wang Mi was in the form of an edict, and since it was a written edict, why didn't he ask the eunuchs in the harem to deliver it to him instead of having his own servants deliver it to the outskirts of Xuzhou?
Isn't this just turning the affairs of the imperial court into the Wang family's own affairs?
It’s really lawless!
It's a pity that in the Jin Dynasty, the sky is really in the hands of Wang Gong.
Wang Zhenying, the Queen Mother of this dynasty, is Wang Gong's biological sister. How is that possible if her own family doesn't help her own family?
As long as Wang Zhenying doesn't have any objections to Wang Gong's actions, who else would dare to make a mistake?
Of course, Wang Zhenying will never have any dissatisfaction with Wang Gong.
The internal and external alliances, Wang Gong's tight control over the government, and Wang Zhenying's ability to sit back and relax in the harem are all complementary to each other.
Wang Mi became more and more angry as he thought about it, but at this moment, the boy sent by Wang Gong was finally brought.
Seeing this person, Wang Mi became even more angry.
How did these people, one or two, get through the important area of Xuzhou?
Could it be that Xuzhou is now a vegetable market?
Anyone can get in, anyone can get out, no one is on guard?
"Shilang Wang, this is a letter written by the prince. The prince has asked the young one to hand it over to Shilang Wang."
With that said, the boy took Wang Gong's letter out of his arms and came forward.
This man was tall and thin, with very high cheekbones. He looked a bit old. However, Wang Mi had never seen him before, at least he didn't have a deep impression on him.
I don’t know how Wang Gong chose such a person.
However, strictly speaking, he looked more reliable than Xie Xiang. At this time, Xie Xiang also stood aside, staring intently at the young man from the Wang family in Taiyuan.
Bad guy!
No one from the Wang family can be trusted!
Xie Xiang looked at the Wang family boy fiercely, and Wang Mi's expression couldn't be said to be pretty.
Who is Wang Gong?
Why did Wang Mi have to read the letters he wrote?
Not the emperor!
Even Sima Yao doesn't have much weight in the eyes of a time traveler like him. He has no interest in the nonsense they write.
He also had a matter-of-fact, commanding tone.
Who does he think he is?
If the master of his family has pai noodles, he will also have pai noodles?
However, Wang Gong's letters must be read eventually, but not right away.
Who doesn’t have a shelf yet?
Especially in front of such a young man who doesn't know how to be respectful, is it possible that a direct descendant of the Langya Wang family and an important member of the court should look at his face?
Of course, the boy couldn't immediately understand the real reason for Wang Mi's dark face. He just did things in his usual way.
However, Wang Gong's servants always behaved in a arrogant manner.
Especially in recent days, since the government has been firmly controlled by Wang Gong, not to mention the momentum of the Wang family from top to bottom.
Not only was he arrogant, there was literally no one under his nose.
Just so arrogant!
Therefore, although the boy was despised by Wang Mi, he could not feel what he had done wrong at all.
I thought I had kept my attitude very low and tried my best.
"Has your lord received my letter?"
After a long time, Wang Mi did not open the letter. The boy was a little unhappy and was about to ask a question when he heard Wang Mi speak first.
"letter?"
"Shilang Wang also wrote a letter to my lord?"
Never heard of it, not at all!
Wang Mi nodded, knowing this boy's routine, he no longer felt embarrassed.
Anyway, if you don’t give me face, don’t expect me to give you face. Let’s just waste it. Who is afraid of whom?
"certainly."
"Calculating the time, it should be delivered before you set off from Jiankang."
"Didn't you hear?"
"Your master didn't give you a few words of advice?"
Although the servant of the Wang family had a bad attitude, Wang Mi's question was still friendly. Although he had not opened the letter from Wang Gong, he knew after thinking about it that it was probably about the return date of the Beifu soldiers.
Anxious.
urged.
To be honest, since he received the edict fabricated by Wang Gong, Wang Mi felt unhappy. Although he still followed Wang Gong's instructions, as he planned, he would never turn Wang Gong's order into the original.
Everything was done exactly the same.
The march was indeed marching, but the speed was quite slow, so slow, so slow that even the Di Qin prisoners in the queue couldn't stand it.
For them, it might be a relief to arrive in Jiankang one day earlier.
Let's see what the imperial court is going to do with these prisoners, and give them some warm words.
As a result, Wang Shilang, who was very quick at fighting, had no idea what kind of demon he was possessed by once he set out on his journey, and he was not in a hurry at all.
Their Jin army's expedition is not short, right? Don't they all miss home?
At such a slow pace, we can’t even reach Jiankang in two months!
This is of course an exaggeration. In fact, in less than a month, the army had already arrived on the outskirts of Xuzhou.
You can touch the gate of Jiankang City right before your eyes!
Because the march was slow, Wang Mi thought that Wang Gong might have been angry after seeing his letter and then wrote his reply.
Xuzhou is relatively close to Jiankang, so it is normal for him to send the reply to him quickly.
However, judging from this boy's statement, it seems that is not the case.
"Didn't Wang Gong receive my letter?"
No way!
It should have been delivered long ago!
The boy had no idea that there was another letter, but he asked Hutu about it.
So he told the truth directly.
"Qi Wang Shilang, I really haven't received it."
"At least, before I went out, I never heard the prince mention it. Maybe the people on both sides got distracted and didn't meet each other."
"Or maybe the younger one is out and the minister's letter has just been delivered. The younger one doesn't know the specific situation."
I see!
It turns out that I really didn’t receive it!
However, this is not normal. According to the normal schedule, Wang Mi's letter should arrive first and Wang Gong's letter should arrive later.
Could it be that something happened in the meantime?
Wang Mi was a little anxious. The messengers came and went again and again, and the number of them was very small. If they didn't send back the news, no one would know the real situation.
