"Your Excellency wants to find the best partner among these princes, relying on the Great Xia Royal Army and the Servant Army and the influence of the Lord in the court to lay some foundation for it, so as to go to the last step?" Hearing Shen Yan's words, Pei Xiangdong's eyes flashed with a touch of contemplation, and then his eyes showed a look of understanding, and he glanced at Shen Yan with a touch of indifferent confidence, and said slowly.

"Yes, this method is the only option we have at the moment." Seeing Pei Xiangdong understand his intentions so quickly, a touch of surprise flashed in Shen Yan's eyes, and then suddenly, after all, Pei Xiangdong was born in a family, and the education he received since he was a child far exceeded that of ordinary people, so the knowledge structure that Pei Xiangdong received was completely different from ordinary people, coupled with Pei Xiangdong's own talent and potential, it seemed reasonable to be able to understand his intentions so quickly.

"My lord, this method will not be discussed for the time being, and the general will only have a doubt in his heart, and I don't know whether to say it or not." Seeing the surprise in Shen Yan's eyes, Pei Xiangdong felt a trace of indifferent pride in his heart, he finally had one aspect to impress Shen Yan, it was really not easy.

"Although we have differences in rank, it is only a difference in the division of labor, in fact, we are all brothers who depend on each other for life and death, no matter on any occasion, as long as there is a question about my words, we can put forward our own opinions and opinions." Seeing Pei Xiangdong's slightly hesitant look, a look of relief flashed in Shen Yan's eyes, although Pei Xiangdong was slightly older than himself, Pei Xiangdong's performance has always made him very satisfied, knowing how to advance and retreat, knowing how to measure and what to say, knowing what kind of words on what occasions, in most cases, without opening his own mouth, Pei Xiangdong can understand what he means, and even before he has said it, Pei Xiangdong has already done what he wants.

Such a subordinate is definitely what Shen Yan is deeply satisfied with, even if Pei Xiangdong has some intentions in his heart, then what's the matter, if he is afraid that Pei Xiangdong is better than himself, and he is afraid that Pei Xiangdong will rob his position, so as to guard against and even suppress Pei Xiangdong's development, fundamentally speaking, it also hinders his own development.

On another level, with such an excellent subordinate as Pei Xiangdong, it is not a motivation for Shen Yan, and Shen Yan will never think of being surpassed by Pei Xiangdong and others, if such a situation really occurs, it can only mean that his efforts are not enough, not that his ability is not as good as Pei Xiangdong. He can lead Pei Xiangdong for a day, and in a way, he is more suitable than Pei Xiangdong to sit in this position.

"My lord, since ancient times, the birds have been hiding their bows, and the cunning rabbit is dead and the lackeys are cooking, don't you worry that once you support a certain prince, when he is strong enough, he will bite back, or he wants to get rid of the influence and remote control of the adult, so as to eradicate the adult." A look of hesitation flashed in Pei Xiangdong's eyes, although this remark could not explain anything, but at a certain level, some other thoughts had already been revealed, but when he thought of Shen Yan's attitude and mind towards him, Pei Xiangdong was immediately relieved.

Shen Yan's proposal of this idea is not the result of a whim, since Shen Yan and Xia Yuanxu came together, Shen Yan may have this idea in his heart, there may be Shen Yan's own thoughts, and there may also be the shadow of the emperor, but no matter which factor it is, Shen Yan's support for the eighteen princes does not seem to be particularly appropriate, or there is no way to do it.

"Although Weichen doesn't quite agree with Lao Wei's idea of replacing him, the risk of supporting a certain prince is not much smaller than replacing him."

"Lao Pei, you can think of this, it is enough to show that our brothers' hearts are together." Hearing Pei Xiangdong's words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, and he said slowly with a hint of relief and a generous smile.

"What kind of twists and turns and possible results will be encountered in the choice of substitution, what kind of twists and turns and possible results will also occur in supporting a certain prince, I think everyone can think of some in their hearts, here I will not say much about these results and twists and turns, I just want to say that supporting a certain prince is the only choice that can be made at the moment, this road is also full of thorns, and there will even be the fate of the birds mentioned by Lao Pei, the cunning rabbit and the dead lackey, however, There is a certain risk in any matter if you want to get the final result, and what we need to do is how to minimize this risk. A hearty and confident smile flashed in Shen Yan's eyes, and he glanced at everyone lightly, with a hint of pride, and continued.

"Compared with the idea of replacing it, supporting a certain prince is more controllable, and the risk will be much smaller, at least one point, neither the court nor the people will use the name of righteousness to suppress us." When Shen Yan said this, he paused for a moment, a touch of contemplation flashed in his eyes, as if he was thinking about how to find the best reason to convince him, and seemed to be cheering himself up, and then a hearty and confident smile appeared on his face.

"As for the fate of the birds and the cunning rabbits and the dead lackeys, since we thought of this possibility from the beginning, with the collective wisdom of our wave of people, are we still afraid of being trampled under our feet, or are you more afraid of this result?" Shen Yan never doubted that the generals under his command wanted to replace them in order for them to gain greater authority and benefits, maybe they would have such thoughts in the future, but at the moment, neither Pei Xiangdong nor Jing Shaoze nor others had such thoughts, what they wanted now was how to improve their strength, expand the reputation of the Great Xia Royal Army and the servant army, and continue to work hard to achieve the pursuit in their hearts.

In fact, Xia Yuanxu was already thinking about how to eliminate his influence on him when he was in Xiangzhou Mansion, but unfortunately, when Xia Yuanxu just had this idea in his heart, Shen Yan already had some bold guesses and precautions, otherwise he would not have let Huang Weiqian follow Xia Yuanxu's side, although Huang Weiqian did not have much experience in politics, but with Huang Weiqian's resourcefulness, it was not difficult to kill Xia Yuanxu's plot, and the result was exactly like this. Every layout of Xia Yuanxu was implemented under Huang Weiqian's suggestion and monitoring, and as a result, Xia Yuanxu could only become a pawn in Shen Yan's strategy of Xiangzhou Mansion.

Therefore, Shen Yan is not worried that Xia Yuanxu will take the means of flying birds and hiding the bow and hiding the cunning rabbit and killing the lackey, Xia Yuanxu may not be able to play himself in terms of means and strategy, even if Xia Yuanxu has such strategies and means, Xia Yuanxu must have enough strength as a support, I dare not say that Xia Yuanxu will not have enough strength in the future, but at least for the moment, Xia Yuanxu can only rely on the Great Xia Royal Army and the servant army in his own hands.

Even if Xia Yuanxu finds the strength to compete with him in the future, but he already has this meaning, won't he take some precautions, but let Xia Yuanxu calmly deploy against himself and suppress himself. Shen Yan shouldn't have been stupid enough to this extent.
