Dajin royal family

Chapter 493 Princess Xiaoliang

The two sides discussed the details of the alliance, but the main point is actually one.

When Northern Jin or Xiao Liang faced Yu Wenshu or Southern Chen's attack, the opponent had to send troops to help the opponent.

After finalizing the main terms, the guests and the host had a good time, Jiang Chengxiao summoned the Minister of Honglu Temple and asked him to take Cen Zhenben to the banquet.

After all, the cousin is the eldest princess of Xiaoliang, and she still needs some momentum, so Cen Zhenben will stay in Taiyuan temporarily, waiting for Jiang Chengxiao and Princess Jiangling to get married before going back.

"Master Cen really likes to take advantage. We have already helped Liang Chao contain Yu Wenshu, but we still want us to contain Nan Chen." Yu Qing snorted.

Du Ruming said, "But he's probably not in the mood to ask us to guard against Nan Chen."

Jiang Chengxiao chuckled, "Although Xiao Liang and Nan Chen occupy a large amount of land in the south of the Yangtze River, the south has many mountains and hills, and the population is far less than that of the north. They are inherently deficient. Whether it is Yu Wenshu or Li Yuan and Wei Guo in Guanzhong, once they go to war, they will not be able to resist them. "

The population of the entire world is currently mainly concentrated in the north, especially in Guanzhong and the Central Plains.

The Northern Jin Dynasty occupied Bingzhou and Hebei, and the current population base has surpassed all forces.

Du Ruming said: "Your Majesty, once the war in the Central Plains starts, will Wei Guo and Li Yuan really participate?"

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxiao nodded lightly, "Ninety-nine are close to ten. At present, there are only two forces left in Guanzhong, Li Yuan and Wei Guo. Su Dinghai of Wuwei County has been cornered by Li Yuan. Even if he can survive, he will be dying. The Central Plains War Together, Wei Hong will either take this opportunity to fight Li Yuan decisively, or negotiate peace with Li Yuan."

"Once they negotiate a peace, Li Yuan will definitely send two armies, one to attack Lingwu County to seize the Hetao Racecourse, and the other to go south through Dasan Pass to capture Hanzhong. Wei Hong may take this opportunity to go out to attack the Central Plains, and may also attack Hedong county."

After a pause, Jiang Chengxiao continued: "If they don't negotiate a peace, and take advantage of this opportunity to fight decisively, no one can stop the unification of Guanzhong."

Once the Central Plains War starts, Jiang Chengxiao will definitely shrink the troops in Guanbei, and Hedong County can only defend against the dangerous pass. Such external conditions are the best chance for the two heroes in Guanzhong to fight to the death.

Yu Qing frowned, and said: "If they negotiate a peace, we will disperse our forces and garrison Hedong County to guard against Wei Hong. I'm afraid that the captured Lingwu County will also be let out."

"It doesn't matter if Lingwu County is let out. What we need to guard against is Wei Hong's attack on Hedong County." Jiang Chengxiao said in a deep voice.

After all, Lingwu County is too far away from Bingzhou, beyond its reach, and it will cost a huge price to defend.But Hedong County is different, there is no room for loss.

"But it's not sure." Jiang Chengxiao suddenly smiled.

"What does His Majesty mean?"

"You have to know that Wei State currently occupies Jingzhao. Once time passes and people's minds settle down, it will not be so easy for Li Yuan to take Jingzhao down. Similarly, Wei State may not want to see Li Yuan take down Hanzhong Granary And the racecourse in Lingwu County."

Du Ruming said: "Your Majesty is far-sighted, in this way, Wei Hong will not dare to attack our court with all his strength."

Li Yuan and Wei Hong are very embarrassed at the moment. Although both sides remain calm, they are full of guard against each other in private.In this way, both sides will imperceptibly restrain each other before a winner is reached.

The Great War in the Central Plains is unavoidable. Jiang Chengxiao must stop Yu Wenshu from attacking Qingzhou or Xiaoliang.

Qingzhou is now his lunch, and he will chop off anyone who dares to reach out.

On the other hand, if Yu Wenshu attacked Xiao Liang, he would have to send troops to stop it, because if Xiao Liang perished under the siege of Yu Wenshu and Nanchen, then Yu Wenshu's power would increase greatly when he captured the land of Jingzhou.

Chen Guo in the southeast will also take this opportunity to go north to Qingzhou.

This must never happen!

"Ru Ming, Qing Ze."

"The minister is here." The two responded in unison.

"Next year is very important. We must stock up enough logistics supplies. Once the war starts, it will definitely not end easily." Jiang Chengxiao said with a serious face.

"The ministers must share the worries of the king." The two said solemnly.

At the same time, Xiao Xian also arrived at Prince Zhao's Mansion with his maid Xiao Min.

"Princess, Your Majesty said that King Zhao is the emperor of the Northern Jin Dynasty. Why does he live in such an ordinary place? It is not as grand as our Liang Dynasty palace."

Xiao Min put down the curtain of the carriage and whispered to Xiao Xian.

Xiao Xiandao: "Father said that the Northern Jin army was strong and powerful, and they swept away the rebels in Hebei and Qingzhou in just one year. Presumably, all the money of the Northern Jin Dynasty was spent on the army."

"But Prince Zhao's Mansion is quite shabby." Xiao Min muttered softly.

Xiao Xian's face became serious, and he warned: "Remember, once you enter Prince Zhao's Mansion, you must never mention the matter of the Liang Dynasty, or I will drive you out."

"Yes!" Shocked, Xiao Min quickly agreed.

Seeing this, Xiao Xian's tone softened a little, and he explained: "I married here to help Liang Chao. If I can't satisfy my cousin, it will definitely affect the relationship between the two countries. In the future, don't compete with others in the mansion. It's good to divide."

"Your servant understands." Xiao Min said earnestly: "We live under the fence, we should abide by the rules,"

Hearing the words 'to send someone under the fence', Xiao Xian's face was sad, but he didn't refute.Her father told her that the Northern Jin Dynasty was powerful, and that the Liang Dynasty would have a good relationship with the Northern Jin Dynasty for a long time to come, and asked her to serve King Zhao well.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with living under the fence.

After a while, the carriage stopped in front of Prince Zhao's Mansion, Xiao Xian got off the carriage with the maids, and saw several noble ladies standing at the door, and many maids and servants followed behind them.

Xiao Xian was slightly surprised that the clothes these ladies wore were very simple, even 'cheap'.

Seeing this, Xiao Xian secretly sighed in his heart.No wonder the Northern Jin Dynasty was so powerful, and King Zhao and his family were so diligent, which shows that other ministers must be the same.

Those who greeted Xiao Xian were the side concubine Yuchi Chifan, his wife Bai Shi, his wife Zheng Shi, and the talented Xiuyu.Where is the identity of Queen's Eldest Sun Qingyi, it is naturally impossible to greet Xiao Xian in person.

Before entering the door, Xiao Xian was canonized as a concubine by Jiang Chengxiao, so it was appropriate for Yuchi Chifan to greet her.

At this moment, Yuchi Chifan and the others were also quietly looking at Xiao Xian.This newly conferred concubine is really beautiful and beautiful, with a graceful beauty of a Jiangnan woman.

After the two parties greeted each other, Xiao Xian also got to know these ladies.

What surprised her was that her cousin had so few concubines in the harem. Even her father, the emperor, had more than 20 women in the harem.

Cousin is indeed a womanizer.

Immediately, she felt that this idea was a little funny, whether it was Yuchi's side concubine or his wife Bai, they were all first-class beauties.Even Mrs. Zheng and that humble talent are not bad in appearance.

Ordinary women, I'm afraid they can't get into the eyes of their cousins.

After entering the palace, Yuchi Chifan took Xiao Xian to visit the Queen Mother first, and could only go to see the Queen after getting the Queen Mother's approval.

On the Queen Mother's side, Jiang Chengxiao greeted him very early, so the Queen Mother didn't make things difficult for Xiao Xian, and encouraged her to spread the word for the king as soon as possible, and then rewarded her with a lot of things, and let her go See Queen Changsun.

Xiuyu was still obediently serving the Queen Mother, while Zheng Guanyin seemed a little sullen.After welcoming Xiao Xian, the Bai family resigned from the Queen Mother and went back to take care of her son Jiang Xie.

"Has your Majesty not met you yet?" Queen Mother Zheng looked at Xiuyu who was kneeling beside her and pinching her leg.

Xiuyu nodded with a gloomy face. Even though the king accepted her, he never went to her side, which made her wonder if the king didn't like her at all.

Queen Mother Zheng still felt sorry for this maid who had served her for a long time, so she patted her on the head and said: "Don't worry, the king is always in charge of everything, and it's normal to forget something. When he returns home, I will remind him." .”

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Xiuyu was moved.

Zheng Guanyin lowered her head and looked lonely, thinking that she is the daughter of the Zheng family in Xingyang, but she has only been conferred a wife.That Princess Xiaoliang entered the mansion as a side concubine, her status has declined again.

Who is to blame, the stomach doesn't live up to expectations, it would be fine if she was pregnant.

"Guanyin, what are you thinking?" The Queen Mother's voice sounded.

"No." Zheng Guanyin forced a smile on his face.

The Queen Mother frowned, she couldn't see through Zheng Guanyin's worrying about gains and losses at the moment; "Guanyin, you and Xiuyu, the most important thing is to spread the branches and leaves for the king as soon as possible, don't think wildly."

In the royal palace, only women who have children are eligible to fight.No heir, just floating without roots, no one can protect it.

"Yes."

Xiuyu and Zheng Guanyin responded at the same time.
