Chapter 760: Determined
"Your Majesty, a great victory." Xu Sanyuan trotted all the way to the Qinzheng Hall with a brisk pace, and saw Xia Qizheng burying his head at the desk, his eyes showed a look of joy, and he said loudly.
"Xu Sanyuan, where did you get the big victory?" Hearing Xu Sanyuan's joyful voice, Xia Qi was slightly annoyed that Xu Sanyuan broke his contemplation and was a little puzzled, but then a touch of clarity flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Xu Sanyuan with a hint of inquiry, and said loudly.
"Did you say that the great victory came to Lingnan or something else?"
"Your Majesty, it's not Lingnan, the situation in Lingnan is still in a stalemate, and the great victory that the slave said is from Lord Shen's side. The ringman just received the latest news from the high guards, Lord Shen led the Royal Army and the servant army of Great Xia to fight to the death with the White Lotus Sect in the area of Xiangzhou Mansion, dragging the emperor to Hongfu, Lord Shen decided the battle in a battle, defeated more than 60,000 White Lotus Sects, and killed nearly 40,000 White Lotus Sect bandits on the spot, and the rest of the White Lotus Sect saw that there was nothing to do, and scattered and fled. A hearty smile appeared on the corner of Xu Sanyuan's mouth, and he said loudly.
Since the ringer came back to the emperor with Huo Ting'an, the emperor was greatly annoyed by Huo Ting'an's behavior, Huo Tingan actually sneaked out without regard to the emperor's order, if it wasn't for the ringing Weng who just went to rescue Shen Yan, Huo Ting'an might still be very free, for this reason, the emperor ordered the ringer to send Huo Tingan back to the house to be detained, and at the same time let the ringman take action to seal Huo Ting'an's skills. After the matter was done, the warlord said that he was old, and if there was no particularly important matter, the warlord wanted to rest for a while, and the emperor was sympathetic to the warlord's mind at that time, so he agreed to the request of the warlord.
The ringer knew that the emperor was very concerned about Shen Yan's situation in Huaibei County, so he asked Xu Sanyuan to temporarily take over the situation in Huaibei County handled by Gao Yong. Of course, Xu Sanyuan disagreed, and the final agreement was that whenever he was subjected to Gao Yong, the ringer would be transferred to Xu Sanyuan as soon as possible, so that Xu Sanyuan would come to report to the emperor, although there would be a delay of half an hour, but this was the only plan that the emperor, the ringer and Xu Sanyuan were willing to accept, so Xu Sanyuan would come to report instead of the ringer.
"Sure enough, it's a big victory." Hearing Xu Sanyuan's words, a touch of joy appeared on the corner of Xia Qi's mouth, this news was the happiest thing he heard today. Unexpectedly, the powerful White Lotus Sect was defeated by Shen Yan, who only had more than 4,000 people, and this great contrast made Xia Qi feel that Shen Yan's contribution was precious.
"Although Lord Shen defeated the White Lotus Sect, there were still some White Lotus Sects who fled, and at the same time, Lord Shen also failed to kill the bandit leader of the White Lotus Sect in this battle, in response to this situation, Lord Shen felt very guilty, so he did not accompany the Eighteen Princes into Xiangzhou Mansion, but led the Great Xia Royal Army and the servant army to continue to hunt down the remnants of the White Lotus Sect and its bandits." Xu Sanyuan felt the emperor's joy and excitement, and with a hearty smile, he continued.
"Lord Shen felt that the military strength of Huaibei County was a little weak, so he re-established a box army in Huaibei County first, and trained in Wuzhou Mansion before, this time after defeating the White Lotus Sect in the area of Xiangzhou Mansion, Lord Shen took out half of his troops and handed them over to the eighteen princes to command, and the eighteen princes took them into Xiangzhou Mansion, Lord Shen said at the time that with the protection of these box troops, the eighteen princes could gain a firm foothold in Xiangzhou Mansion."
"Although I have not visited Xiangzhou Mansion in person, but from some twists and turns and past experience, the situation in Xiangzhou Mansion must be very complicated, although it is a good choice for this matter to be handled by Lao Eighteen, but Lao Eighteen is still a little immature, and I am really worried that he will not handle it well and will miss a big event." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Xia Qi's mouth, but he felt that something was wrong when he heard Shen Yan let Xia Yuanxu enter Xiangzhou Mansion alone, although Shen Yan had made some adequate preparations, after all, Xia Yuanxu was still a little immature, and if this matter was handled by Shen Yan, it might be better than Xia Yuanxu.
"Your Majesty, the slave has a sentence that should not be said, I don't know whether to say it or not." Hearing the emperor's tone, a faint smile appeared at the corner of Xu Sanyuan's mouth, the emperor's denial of Xia Yuanxu was not really a denial, but a subconscious feeling that Xia Yuanxu could not do this well, so there were some complicated ideas.
"You minion, what can't you say to me?" Seeing Xu Sanyuan's demeanor, Xia Qi glanced at the other party and said loudly.
"Your Majesty, although the slave doesn't know any major military affairs, he knows the proportions of Lord Shen's work, the situation in Xiangzhou Mansion, although Lord Shen can't deal with it personally in order to hunt down the remnants of the White Lotus Sect, this matter was handed over to the Eighteen Princes, however, the servants feel that this matter should be deliberately handed over to the Eighteen Princes by Lord Shen." Xu Sanyuan's eyes showed a faint smile, met the emperor's bright eyes, and said loudly.
"You slave, you still have a lot of ghost thoughts, tell me in detail why Shen Yan took the initiative to hand over this matter to the eighteenth man to deal with." Xia Qi's eyes showed a brightness, and he also felt that this matter was deliberately done by Shen Yan in his mind, but he didn't expect Xu Sanyuan to think the same way, so he might as well listen to Xu Sanyuan's opinion.
"The emperor thinks, in addition to the intricate strength of Xiangzhou Mansion, there are also three princes, if Lord Shen enters Xiangzhou Mansion with the Great Xia Royal Army and the servant army, then the three princes will feel that Lord Shen is appearing as a winner, which makes the three princes feel that it is a loss of face, so it is better for the eighteen princes to come forward in this matter, although the three princes still lose face, but this face is lost to their own brothers, and they can still talk about the past." Xu Sanyuan's eyes showed a flash of wisdom, and he said with a smile indifferently.
"There is another advantage to the eighteen princes coming forward, that is, the eighteen princes represent the face of the emperor, although Lord Shen can also represent, but it is far inferior to the eighteen princes, so whether it is to appear in Xiangzhou Mansion to appease, or to deal with those intricate forces in Xiangzhou Mansion, the eighteen princes should be the best candidate."
"The emperor may be worried that the eighteen princes are young, and many things cannot be taken into account, or they are not well considered, but the servants believe that the performance of the eighteen princes in Lingnan is very good, and the performance in the criminal department is even more remarkable, plus Lord Shen must have made corresponding arrangements in this matter, first of all, Lord Shen transferred half of the Xiang army from Wuzhou Mansion, with these forces as the backing of the eighteen princes, those forces in Xiangzhou Mansion will not embarrass the eighteen princes on the surface, and at the same time, the eighteen princes have these forces, It can deter those with bad intentions. When Xu Sanyuan said this, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, glanced at the smiling emperor, and continued.
"Lord Shen can also enter Xiangzhou Mansion on behalf of the emperor, and he can even handle some things in Xiangzhou Mansion beautifully, so as to gain a reputation as a capable official, but no matter how good Lord Shen's reputation is, he is just a courtier, unlike the Eighteen Princes, once the Eighteen Princes handle it well, it is good for the emperor to teach, this is a matter of earning face for the emperor, so Lord Shen will make this choice."
"In order to ensure that the Eighteen Princes can accomplish this matter well, Lord Shen must have other arrangements and arrangements, but the senior guards can't find out for the time being." When Xu Sanyuan said this, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and he was sure that Shen Yan must have sufficient arrangements, and there would definitely be no mistakes.
"In this way, Shen Yan is really well-intentioned." Xia Qi's eyes revealed a complicated look, no matter how intimate the monarch and ministers are, there are still some estrangements between each other, and the relationship between relatives and estrangement is far inferior to that of father and son, Xia Qi is not worried that Shen Yan's mind is too flexible, but worried that I will make trouble for him, but worried that others do not understand my trust in Shen Yan, so in order to prevent some people from handing me an excerpt through such a thing, so that I am caught in the middle, Shen Yan put an end to it from the source, this thought is really commendable, not to mention other courtiers, Even those sons of mine are not as caring as Shen Yan.
Shen Yan would be better if he and I were a family. Xia Qi's heart was even more ardent about this idea at this moment, and he couldn't wait to recall Shen Yan immediately, and tell him face to face, you should be my son-in-law, I will marry my most beloved Princess Yuhan to you, if you still have feelings for Qiu Mubai's daughter, I can allow you to let Qiu Yingxue enter the door, as for the female shopkeeper of Wangjiang Tower, she can only be your concubine.
