It was useless to waste a long time talking to Bai Suyan about seeking revenge from An Peng.
After all, the other party was a powerful official with great power, and the An family was a large family in the northwest, and had a close relationship with the Uighurs of the Parthian generation. It is said that during the Parthian rebellion, the ancestor emperor relied on the power of the An family in the northwest to put down the rebellion. In
After that incident, in order to help the An family stabilize the Western Region, the three emperors continued to give great rewards to the An family. The An family was already the dominant family in the Western Region. They were like the uncrowned king of the northwest.
Therefore, although the emperor was very afraid of Anjia, he could only use rewards to stabilize Anjia. And Anjia, who had always lived in the northwest and never visited Beijing, had always maintained a tacit understanding with the Zhou court.
More than ten years ago, the Turks once again attacked the Great Zhou Dynasty and sent envoys to instigate rebellion against Anjia. However, the Anjia rebelled against the Turks. In the end, the Anjia and the Great Zhou Dynasty joined forces and solved the siege of Chang'an.
After this incident, the An family clearly expressed its attitude towards the world. The Western Regions belonged to the Han family, and the An family was also a subject of the Han family.
Such an attitude is quite ambiguous. The An family did not say that they were loyal to the Zhou Dynasty, they just said that they would not betray their ancestors.
However, the emperor was still very happy. Because at this time, Da Zhou was the representative of the Han family. Being loyal to the Han family naturally meant being indirectly loyal to Da Zhou.
Therefore, the emperor personally threw a hydrangea to Anjia for the first time. With his status as an important official in the Zhou Dynasty, he urged Anjia to return to his heart. And Anjia also needed silk and cloth from the Central Plains, so the two parties hit it off.
However, five years ago, as An Peng's father, who had always advocated staying away from the court, became the head of the An family after some internal fighting. The relationship between Da Zhou and the An family became confusing again.
On the one hand, Anjia still allowed Anpeng to stay in the Zhou Dynasty court. It was a show of goodwill on the surface, but in fact, he was regarded as a hostage. This ensured Anjia's living space between the Turks and the Zhou Dynasty.
On the other hand, according to reliable intelligence, Anjia was secretly in contact with the Turks.
The Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was wary of the strength of the An family in the northwest, and repeatedly turned a blind eye to what the An family did in the Great Zhou Dynasty. At that time, An Peng's retainer Fan Zenghao made great achievements and forced the Miao people to rebel. The emperor simply demoted him.
Level 1. There is no further text. And in this dispute between the common people and the nobles, although the emperor was extremely angry, he was open to the An family. He only hit An Peng once and made no other moves.
These things were what Wu Ningyuan said to himself when he was encircling and suppressing Liu Yuanyi that day.
At that time, when Wu Ningyuan said these words, there was deep worry on his face. He seemed to feel uneasy about the future of Dazhou.
After listening to these complicated words, Lu Heng also frowned.
He was also thinking about these words at the time. However, when Wu Ningyuan asked about countermeasures, Lu Heng looked at him and said to him: "After getting the testimony of the Turks, don't attack those Turks."
Watching too closely!”
After saying this, Lu Heng stopped talking.
After Wu Ningyuan heard this, he was stunned for a long time. What did Yong Zheng mean by this sentence.
It was not easy to catch a few Turks, and they seemed to have a high status. After hearing Yongzheng's words, he seemed to want to let them go.
However, after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly woke up.
Yes, if the relationship between the An family and the Turks is exposed in the court this time, it is very likely that the An family will jump over the wall and side with the Turks. That is, the entire northwest door will be opened, and the Great Zhou Dynasty will be in danger.
And Yongzheng seemed to have guessed that after the An family learned that the incident was exposed, they would definitely kill the Turks and silence them. Therefore, they made a way for him to kill the Turks smoothly to prevent the conflict from becoming too intense.
This leads to an uncontrollable situation.
However, in this case, why not just do a favor and execute the Turk secretly? Why do we still need to leave such a painless testimony?
Wu Ningyuan thought about it for a long time, but couldn't figure it out. He wanted to ask Lu Heng, but in the end, the little fox slipped away.
Now, listening to Bai Suyan, she gritted her teeth and said that she wanted to kill An Peng.
Lu Heng smiled bitterly in his heart. How could you bring down the An family with such a huge power? Even if you kill An Peng, so what. Since the An family is willing to use An Peng as a hostage, it means that they have no power at all.
Keep this son in your heart. If you kill one, there will be more cruel and ruthless people than An Peng.
After exhausting her words and explaining a lot of reasons, Bai Suyan finally calmed down. However, she still looked unkind and stared at Lu Heng coldly and said, "Then what do you think we should do?"
Lu Heng looked at the other party's serious expression, smiled and shook his head: "What else can I do? Let's have it cold!"
Seeing that the other party was angry, he touched his waist.
Lu Heng felt both funny and helpless in his heart.
Yes, you threaten me again! Is it interesting for you to use a sword against a scholar who has no strength to restrain a chicken?
Helpless, the opponent had big fists, and it would be easier to clean him up than drink cold water. What's more, not long after, the opponent would be his comrade in the trenches. After thinking about the pros and cons in his head quickly, Lu Heng had no choice but to
I had no choice but to tell her my preliminary plan.
So, on this cold early winter day by the Qinhuai River at noon, such a scene appeared.
In the misty rain pavilion in the cold wind, two white-faced scholars sat opposite each other in front of the stone table in the pavilion. One of them had a faint smile on his face, playing with the things on the table casually. Sometimes he would point to the chestnuts on the table and say
He said a sentence or two, then raised his head to look at the other person's expression. Seeing that the other person was holding her cheeks in a feminine manner, he nodded. He smiled, continued to play with the other two chestnuts, and continued talking.
Occasionally, someone would pass by and see the two white-faced scholars in the pavilion, very close to each other. Moreover, there seemed to be a very contemptible relationship between the two. Passers-by would spit with contempt and look pitiful.
Sighing: "In this bright world, such a nasty thing can happen. Where is the justice of heaven!"
However, the two people in the pavilion did not notice anything wrong with the distance between them. Bai Suyan sat in front of the stone table, listening to Lu Heng's careful analysis, often frowning and thinking for a long time, and then
Then she nodded and nodded, indicating for him to continue.
Lu Heng took out chestnuts one by one from the basket and placed them on the stone table. The chestnuts represented each step of the plan and each power group.
While playing with chestnuts, he said: "Well, the reason why the emperor dare not touch the An family is because the An family is extremely powerful and has a high prestige in the northwest. It is related to the entire northwest war situation. Right?"
Lu Heng picked up an irregular chestnut, peeled off the skin, threw it into his mouth and chewed it. He raised his head and glanced at Bai Suyan, who was staring at the chestnuts on the table, and continued to put his head down.
Looking at the Longmen formation, he asked vaguely.
Seeing the woman nodding, she acquiesced. Lu Heng continued: "Secondly, another reason why the emperor dare not touch An Peng is because under the current situation, in the northwest, the emperor can only rely on An Jia and has no other choice.
.If, oh, if another big clan appears in the northwest and central plains, and this big clan is much more friendly to the court than the An family, I think the emperor's mind will change!"
Lu Heng fiddled with the three chestnuts on the table, raised his head and looked at Bai Suyan with a smile, and said lightly: "It is both a strategic buffer and a natural barrier. By then, whether it is for the stability of the Zhou Dynasty or for the
The status of the royal family. I think the emperor’s attitude towards Anjia will change!"
The wind blew gently, ruffling a strand of hair on Mr. Bai's forehead. Bai Suyan sat there and inadvertently raised her hand to lift up the strand of black hair, spreading a charming aura.
Her misty eyes were sparkling as she thought carefully about Lu Heng's words.
After a long while, she finally understood what it meant. She put her arm on the table and gently supported her chin with her palm, whispering: "What do you mean? The emperor will support this wealthy family to fight against the An family, and, in
At a certain time, we will send troops to the Western Region to destroy the An family, right?"
She whispered what she was thinking, but after finishing speaking, she didn't hear a reply for a while.
When he raised his head and looked at it, he suddenly became furious.
It turned out that the pavilion was already empty.
That damn scholar actually took advantage of his distraction and slipped away at some point.
Even the bamboo basket that had been placed on the table was taken away by him. There were only three chestnuts on the smooth stone table, swaying slightly in the wind.
Bai Suyan stood up, glanced around, and found that there was no one around except for the dazzling sunlight.
She clenched her fists in anger, and wanted to chase him out several times, find him, and beat him up. However, she changed her mind and thought about the scholar. Before running away, she didn't know how nervous she must have been.
She finally curled her lips and said to herself: "Humph, you can run fast!"
Thinking about that scholar who is calm and talented on weekdays, but when he is with me, he always behaves like a common man.
It seemed that the two of them had eaten two meals in total since they met. Moreover, these two meals were paid for by themselves! Thinking about how every time they ate, the scholar lifted up his front skirt and sat across from him in a serious manner.
, without a red face or a heartbeat, waiting for him to pay the bill.
An extremely beautiful smile quietly appeared on Bai Suyan's tense face.
She found it interesting in her heart and couldn't help but smile, just like the white snow in spring in winter.
I sat down again, picked up the three chestnuts on the table, peeled them off, and took a bite. They were sweet and left a fragrant aroma on my lips and teeth.
Bai Suyan chewed the chestnuts carefully while humming: "Forget it this time, don't let me catch you again, otherwise, I have to give you a good look!"
I don't know what the woman is thinking in her heart at this time. However, when she said this, the look of joy and anger in her misty eyes made people feel like their bones were going numb.
