Chapter 583
Pei's family was nearly wiped out during the Annan Change, leaving only Xiao Changyan's uncle Pei Zhan, and Pei Zhan had only one son named Pei Ce. Pei Ce has been by Xiao Changyan's side as a military adviser and deputy general for these years, guarding Annan City .

Pei Zhan died in the northwest, and it is impossible for His Majesty to leave the only seedling Pei Ce in Annan City, Pei Zhan's burial and other matters. As a nephew, it is impossible for Xiao Changyan not to return. He is still in the capital until now, and it seems that he will not return. Return to Annan City.

"What does Balang want to ask?" Xiao Huayong asked in a gentle voice, his good brother's posture was full.

Xiao Changyan looked at Xiao Huayong: "Where did uncle die and why?"

"That day, Pei Shangshu came to look for Gu, and said His Majesty ordered him to go out to work. Gu didn't ask much, and he agreed. Gu was tired from traveling, and was bedridden when he arrived in Tingzhou. He heard that Pei Shangshu was in the next day. Unfortunately, Danxia died." Xiao Huayong spoke slowly, "I ordered King Xun to collect Pei Shangshu's remains, why Pei Shangshu left and why he died, I don't know."

"Why did His Royal Highness go to Tingzhou?" Xiao Changyan asked again.

"It's a long story..."

Xiao Huayong sighed leisurely, only then did Shen Yueshan accidentally discover that his right-hand man had rebelled, and had to feign death for the stability of the Northwest to take down this traitor. Shen Yunan was an insider, so he followed Geng Liangcheng after he went to Tingzhou.

Because of the confidentiality of this matter, Shen Yun'an and his son did not inform others. They were very anxious when the eldest son disappeared. Someone reported seeing the eldest son. At that time, the situation was urgent and Shen Xihe had to stay in the royal city, so he chased after him.

Originally, he didn't intend to bring Pei Shangshu along, it was Pei Shangshu who took the initiative to invite Ying.

Xiao Changyan was expressionless. Erlang, who had experienced the battlefield, even stood there, like a straight sword. He had seen blood cut his edge, and he didn't need to do anything, but he showed his sharp edge, sharp and oppressive.

"General Geng's ministers have also heard that since he rebelled, it is right for the Northwest King and the prince to take great pains." Xiao Changyan could understand this, but then he changed the subject, "The princess is a married woman, and this matter is secret. Even if it is to confuse people's hearts, it is reasonable to know that the Crown Princess will speak.

However, since the Northwest King and his son are so cautious?The prince knew everything about the Northwest, so he should be cautious on the way to Tingzhou, but someone found him?Aren't you afraid that this matter will reach Geng Liangcheng's ears, so that Geng Liangcheng can understand this situation early? "

Shen Xihe listened from the side, slightly raised his eyebrows, thinking that Xiao Changyan had such a keen mind.

Up to now, many smart people have personally participated in the incident, but no one has noticed this slightly unreasonable loophole, but Xiao Changyan was able to point it out.

Xiao Huayong seemed to be thinking seriously after hearing this: "I don't know why, maybe it's because the son deliberately found a trustworthy person to disclose to the palace, or maybe someone was greedy for a reward and hit the right way? Time is running out, and Gu also You can only believe what you have or not what you don’t.”

The two answers given by Xiao Huayong are also reasonable. Shen Yun'an can't disclose such a crucial record clearly. It is understandable to think of ways to hint something. If it is really Shen Yun'an's game, since he dared to do it, it must be There is a way to hide Geng Liangcheng.

As if accepting the answer given by Xiao Huayong, Xiao Changyan did not continue to ask further questions, and then asked another question: "Geng Liangcheng has experienced many battles, and he is also a fierce general in the Northwest. He was once stationed in Tingzhou. It will not be impossible to find a way to conquer Tingzhou, but to bring people in through the city gate.

And if he colludes with the Turks, he shouldn't pretend to fall into the hands of the Turks as soon as he arrives in Tingzhou without making any arrangements! "

"What Balang said is true." Xiao Huayong remained calm and calm, "Regarding this point, after Mrs. Geng declared her ambition by death, the Northwest King, Tingzhou Governor and several generals tracked it down. The collusion between Geng Liangcheng and the Turks was captured. , In fact, I have already secretly taken refuge in your cousin who came and went without a trace."

Xiao Changyan's eyes sank: "Therefore, the meaning of the prince's brother is that Prince Jiachen was planning behind him, and Geng Liangcheng was instigated by him. The Northwest King took advantage of the situation to feign death to lure snakes out of the cave, and then Prince Jiachen caused chaos in Tingzhou. General Geng took the initiative to invite Ying. To merge with it?"

"I think so." Xiao Huayong nodded.

Xiao Changyan looked at Xiao Huayong for a long time before clasping his hands and saluting: "Thank you, Brother Prince, for clearing up my doubts, and I will not disturb Brother Prince, please leave."

"Balang, please go ahead." Xiao Huayong didn't hold back either.

After Xiao Changyan left, Shen Xihe said: "I thought His Highness King Xin was resourceful, but Xiao Changtai was deceitful. I didn't expect His Highness King Jing to hide everything."

Every sentence of Xiao Changyan's words was probing, but his tone and demeanor did not show any probing intentions, not even the slightest suspicion of Xiao Huayong, but every sentence was on point.

"Without me, the three of them would have been able to put together a good show." Xiao Huayong laughed softly.

If Xiao Changtai had not fallen into his hands, he would not have been forced into this situation so early. Perhaps only Xiao Changqing in the entire court had a slight awareness of Xiao Changtai's disguise, but it was not easy to expose it.

The three legs stand together, if Xiao Changqing is also determined to win the throne, it must be a thrilling battle.

In Xiao Huayong's words, he dealt with these people easily and indifferently. If it was usual, Shen Xihe would have to remind him not to get carried away, she is too lazy to say this now.Neither His Majesty nor Xiao Changtai could please him.

Asking himself is also a smart person, Shen Xihe will also be curious about how this person's heart grows, he can really turn his hands into clouds and his hands into rain, with the mountains and rivers as his situation, everyone in the world is his son, he can do whatever he wants.

"King Jing is going to stay in the capital?" Shen Xihe asked.

"En." Xiao Huayong nodded, "The only thing left in the Pei family is his cousin, if he doesn't stay, he is worried that Pei Ce will become the next Pei Zhan."

"An Nancheng just said to delegate power?" Shen Xihe felt that it was not that simple.

Xiao Huayong smiled: "If father-in-law brings his elder brother to the capital, can the Northwest fall into the hands of others?"

"Not in two or three years." Not necessarily after a long time.

"Annan City has already cultivated enough confidantes, so there is no need for him to sit in the town. He is full-fledged now. If he doesn't return to the capital, it will be difficult for him to show his fists in the capital. Moreover, Pei Zhan's death is also an opportunity for him." Xiao Huayong smiled mysteriously.

Shen Xihe didn't need to ask, she could figure it out with a little brainstorming: "Shangshu of the Ministry of War."

The Minister of the Ministry of War was used by Xiao Changqing to confuse His Majesty, and it is still pending today. His Majesty is ashamed of Pei Zhan's death, and Xiao Changyan has military merits.
