Xuanmen Xiaoguo Shi is divination again

Wen Yan laughed and said nothing when he heard the words, but Wen Yushan raised his paw tremblingly after a moment of contemplation.

"Father, there is still one thing I don't understand..." Wen Yushan bit the bullet and asked in a soft voice. Old General Wen felt a sudden pain in his brain when he saw his straightforward, kind, courageous eldest son who didn't know how to adapt.

To this day, he still wonders if Wen Yulang accidentally robbed Wen Yushan of his brain when he was in his mother's womb.

Otherwise, how could these brothers who were born from the same mother's womb have such a big difference in temperament and brains?

Apart from their looks, they have nothing in common!

…they don’t even look much alike (note: fraternal twins, no one should bother with this).

Wen Jin was desperate and slandered, but he had to put on an amiable expression on his face. He clenched his fists and pulled the corners of his lips very stiffly, trying to make his voice sound calm enough: "Yushan, what else can't you figure out?" ?”

"Quickly tell us."

"Actually...it's not a particularly big problem." Wen Yushan smiled innocently, raised his hand and scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, "Father, I just don't quite understand."

"Although Jing Zhen always secretly sends people to rob back a batch of money and military equipment that Xuan Ninghou and the eldest princess sent to the Western merchants, but it doesn't mean that [-]% of the silver will fall into the hands of the Western merchants. We Isn’t this giving money to the next door in vain and raising tigers?”

"Furthermore...if the group of Western Merchants find out that the boxes are full of fakes, and then decide to turn against those two people, then we have made so much preparation and wasted so much time in vain. ?"

"Jing Zhen, didn't you think twice about what you did this time?" Wen Yushan said, staring at his father eagerly.

Hearing this, Old General Wen's eyes went dark uncontrollably, and Wen Yan covered his head in pain when he said it directly.

"...Father, I know you've always been mediocre (stupid), but I really didn't expect you to be so melodious." Wen Yan rolled his eyes and exclaimed in disappointment, while getting up and giving Old General Wen his back.

He turned his eyes to look at Wen Yushan with pity, then lowered his head and quickly whispered two words "biological" in Wen Jin's ear.

"Dear, dear, grandpa, hold on tight, grandpa, don't get angry at your age, dear, dear..."

"If it wasn't for my own birth, I would have been thrown out of the barracks by him decades ago!" Old General Wen spat in a low voice, then patted his chest with a wrinkled face, "Zi Ran, what did you give you?" The incompetent Laozi explained, I don't want to talk now."

——He just wants to pick up a stick and beat him up, even though Wen Yushan's ancestors are his father, grandfather and great-grandfather!

"No problem—you can take a couple of sips of tea first, Shun Shun, and grandson will tell him slowly." Wen Yan nodded, and refilled old General Wen with a new cup of tea.

Seeing that his grandfather's expression seemed to have eased a lot after drinking tea, he sighed and turned to meet Wen Yushan's bewildered old face: "Father, my cousin is using the "double measure" No matter whether the Western merchants can find out that the money and weapons have been stolen, it will not affect the overall situation on our side."

"Ah?" Wen Yushan scratched his head, his eyes that were already ignorant became more and more confused--for so many years, he took the lead on the battlefield with a spear and a big halberd, waving a banner, even saying All tricks and schemes are the work of his younger brother and the military adviser in the army.

——This matter never fell on him, he just listened to them, and he just hit whatever they pointed out.

"It's like this, Dad, think about it," Wen Yan rubbed his brows and bared his teeth, "Although Cousin Jing Zhen sent people to rob back most of the money and military equipment, he left them with so much money Jujube, to ensure that the first one or two boxes and the remaining few boxes of each batch of materials are all genuine."

"At the same time, the intensity of the struggle in the former Western Shang Dynasty was not weaker than that of Fuli, and within the royal court, the dispute between father and son of the Tian family was even worse than that of our dynasty—all these, right?"

"That's right, that's right." Wen Yushan nodded in a daze, the bewildered expression on his face only increased, "And then?"

"Then? Then there are two types of situations that may arise." Wen Yan pulled the corner of his lips with a smirk, "The first type is the least probable and least variable

a situation of "

"That's the father and son of Xishang. Because they were busy fighting with each other all day long and lacked manpower and material resources, they neglected to check the supplies sent from Fuli. None of them found that the genuine goods had already been dropped. Most of the boxes are fake."

"The second category, someone has discovered the clue."

"It doesn't matter whether it is one party or two parties who discovered the difference in those materials, as long as someone discovers this, he will face two choices."

Wen Yan stretched out two fingers as he spoke: "First, they broke up with their allies, and since then they have completely cut off foreign aid; The supply of [-] to [-]% will continue to fight for the power of Western merchants."

"Father, guess what, if the pair of Xishang father and son really noticed the difference in supplies, how would they choose?"

"This... should be a quick and easy way to break the face with Xuan Ninghou and the others." Wen Yushan rubbed his chin ponderingly, "Anyway, if it were me, I would designate to break the face with them."

"——Who are you going to fool with these scraps of copper and rotten iron? Think I'm a melon skin or a wronged seed? Is there any sincerity in forming an alliance!"

"Tsk tsk, that's why, old man, you'll only be able to charge forward in this life, and you won't be able to do such brainy work." Wen Yan shook his head and couldn't stop smacking his lips, shaking his head as if he had taken fake drugs.

"Let's put it this way, dad, as long as the old Western Shang monarch and the Western Shang prince's skulls don't get water or bubbles, they will choose to swallow their anger nine times out of ten, turning a blind eye to this matter and turning a deaf ear to it. "

"Ah? Why?" The two sword eyebrows on Wen Yushan's face instantly twisted into pimples, "Aren't they being wronged?"

"Because they don't know that the foreign aid materials received by the other party are also boxes of scrap copper and rotten iron." Wen Yan spread his hands innocently.

"Right now, the father and son are in dire straits. Even if they receive the news that the other party's gains are nothing more than a pile of rubbish, they must carefully weigh whether this thing is a mist that others intentionally released. At this critical juncture, the two sides How can you dare to turn against your allies and annoy Fu Li if you are holding back everywhere?"

The young man said with a playful grin: "Aren't you just asking for trouble!"

"Furthermore, when the eldest princess and the Marquis of Xuan Ning sent the money, food, and military equipment out of Fuli, all the boxes contained genuine good bows and crossbows. Xuan Ninghou and the others don’t recognize it, and the two parties will inevitably have conflicts.”

"Once the two ends are pulled together, the leader will naturally have to thoroughly investigate which link along the way went wrong—the water is clear and there are no fish, Dad, tell me, how many clean officials can there be in the world these days?"

Wen Yan bent his eyes: "That group of people can't help but check at all. Once they check, they will drag out a bunch of people. Then they will be busy dealing with these bastards at the front, and the rear will definitely be empty—"

"Stealing the enemy's camp and escaping the empty door, father, you have led soldiers in the army for so many years, you should have done this kind of work a lot, right?"
