The Six Arts of the Gentleman in the Bright Moon of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 920: Only Warring Ears [Subscribe*Monthly Tickets]

When Ju Wu came, he could either send Fan Yuqi away or drag Jueying to be killed.

Yan Chunjun really had to suspect that this was directed at him.

Ju Wu was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses. He really had no intention of going after Yan Chunjun. He was really considering the State of Yan. It just seemed that he was really targeting Yan Chunjun. It was no wonder that Yan Chunjun thought so.

Moreover, Yan Chunjun had made many enemies in the State of Yan. Once Fan Yuqi and Jueying were gone, Yan Chunjun would be close to death.

"Wu Zhen didn't mean that!" Ju Wu explained hurriedly.

"Whether you mean that or not, you know it yourself. Please get out of here, old man!" Yan Chunjun waved his sleeves and left without any courtesy.

Ju Wu stared blankly at Yan Chunjun's departing back with a dull expression.

"Mr. Prime Minister, please come in!" The family elder did not show any curiosity to drive the guest away.

At first he was quite fascinated by what he heard, and thought that Ju Wu was really trying to find a way out for the State of Yan, but as Yan Chunjun finished speaking, he came to his senses and realized that this was a trap for the head of the family.

If the mansion of Lord Yanchun was gone, what good end would these people close to Lord Yanchun have, so naturally they would not give Ju Wu any good face anymore.

"Oh!" Ju Wu sighed.

Although he was a wise man of Yan State, he could not think of any solution when facing the aggressive Qin State and the general situation of the world.

"There is no need to tell General Fan about this. As long as I am still in Yan State, no one can drive me away!" Yan Chunjun thought about it and gave a reminder.

He is not willing to abandon the donkey after it has done its work.

What's more, since Fan Yuqi came to Yan State, he has been working hard for Yan State in conquering wars in the east and west and expanding the territory. Even if he has no merits, he has worked hard. If he is really to be discarded, the entire Yan State will no longer have the face to stand on the earth.

Compared to Ju Wu's fear and distrust of Fan Yuqi, he felt that Ju Wu was coming to take revenge on the State of Yan.

After all, Ju Wu is a descendant of Ji Sheng, and they are descendants of Ji Kuai. There is real reason to believe that Ju Wu came for revenge.

"Inform the king that I want to go to the palace to see him!" Yan Chunjun thought about it and realized that he had stayed in the peninsula for too long and could not receive a lot of information. It was necessary for him to go to the palace first to find out something.

The alliance between Qin and Qi was very fantastic and absurd.

Secondly, he needs to understand what role Bingzhou plays in this incident.

In a dark room in Jicheng, Hei Bai Xuan Jian had already arrived. After all, it was a matter of national destruction, so he, the leader of Luowang, had to come in person.

"Things are going better than we thought!" Hei Bai Xuan Jian was a little surprised when he looked at the information sent by his men. Before he could even make a move, Ju Wu actually ran out on his own.

"It is difficult to shake Fan Yuqi's position in Yan State with Ju Wu alone!" Hei Bai Xuan Jian pondered for a moment and shook his head.

It is true that Ju Wu is also a member of the royal family of Yan State, but even royal family members have close and distant relationships, and there are also conflicts.

There are some conflicts between Ju Wu and the lineage of Prince Yan, so it is impossible for them to be of one mind, and it is impossible for Prince Yan Xi to really believe in Ju Wu.

Compared to Ju Wu, King Xi of Yan trusted his younger brother Yan Chunjun more!
So if you want to get rid of Fan Yuqi, you have to use some drastic measures.

As for the assassination of Fan Yuqi, Hei Bai Xuan Jian shook his head. With what identity did he have, how could he be a killer and run into the swords without leaving a trace!
What's more, Fan Yuqi lived in the Fan Pavilion which was specially built for him by the State of Yan. There were many soldiers there, and Fan Yuqi himself was also a master of military strategy. It was too difficult to assassinate Fan Yuqi.

"Lord Xuan Jian, what should we do?" "Well..." Hei Bai Xuan Jian pondered for a while, then arranged the tasks in a low voice, and soon everyone left one after another.

After washing and resting, Yan Chunjun also received a message from the palace. He got on the carriage and went directly to the palace to meet King Xi of Yan.

"My younger brother is here!" King Xi of Yan looked at Yan Chunjun with some guilt.

As the king of Yan, he promised Yan Chunjun that he would buy them three years. Unfortunately, who could have thought that Qi would not play by the rules and instigated Qin to go to war with them, resulting in the originally promised three years being reduced to one year.

This was also the reason why he had to urgently recall Yan Chunjun, Fan Yuqi and the army outside to return in the wind and snow.

"Brother Wang, have you found out why Qi suddenly formed an alliance with Qin?" Yan Chunjun asked directly without any extra words.

The first thing to do now is to understand Qi’s motives and destroy the alliance between Qin and Qi. Without Qi’s support, Qin will not have enough food and supplies to go to war with Yan in a short period of time.

"This is the news sent back by the merchants in Qin!" King Xi of Yan handed the information to Yan Chunjun.

After reading it carefully, Yan Chunjun felt even more unbelievable. For fame? You must be sick!

"It's hard to believe, right? I can't believe it either, but this is the fact!" King Xi of Yan said with a constipated look on his face. He had obtained this information a long time ago, but until now he still couldn't accept it or understand it. He even thought that the merchants of Yan State couldn't find the specific information and deliberately used it to perfunctory him.

But if you think about it carefully, even if it is just perfunctory, the false information will be more credible than this stuff.

So, the result is that this information is true.

"What about Bingzhou? Considering Emperor Xuanwu's character of not doing anything without profit, I don't believe that Bingzhou was not involved in this!" Yan Chunjun said helplessly.

"This... My brother has really wronged Emperor Xuanwu. This is all the information about Bingzhou last year!" King Yan pointed to the bamboo slips on the other side.

Yan Chunjun flipped through the book again and felt that Yan Yan was really wronged. Bingzhou really didn't have the extra energy to take care of other things this year.

The eastern expedition to the Donghu, the establishment of county governance, the snow disaster control, and the promotion of education took up all of Bingzhou's energy, leaving no extra energy for anything else.

"So, we can't destroy the alliance between Qin and Qi!" Yan Chunjun compromised.

He thought that Qi was being fooled and coerced, so they still had room for maneuver. But it turned out that it was King Jian of Qi who took the initiative to propose it, so there was nothing he could do.

"I also sent people to Bingzhou to request an alliance with Bingzhou to jointly resist Qin and Qi. I even sent people to meet the King of Donghu and form an alliance with Donghu!" King Xi of Yan sighed and continued, "But Bingzhou refused the alliance on the grounds of oath. As for Donghu, they were beaten by Bingzhou and fled everywhere, and they couldn't help us at all."

When Yan Chunjun first heard about the alliance with Donghu, he felt a pang in his heart. To form an alliance with Donghu would mean to go against Bingzhou. But when he heard that the alliance did not succeed, he was relieved. Fortunately, it did not succeed. Otherwise, not to mention offending Bingzhou, it would also make Yan State lose face in the world.

"Then we have no choice but to fight!" Yan Chunjun didn't think about anything else.

There is no more external force to be borrowed, so the only way left is to fight to the death.

"How confident are you, my brother?" asked Prince Yan Xi.

Yan Chunjun sighed. Facing the Qin army which had abundant food and grass, many soldiers and generals, and an extremely magnificent lineup, let alone him, even if the princes were still there and united, facing such a magnificent lineup, no one dared to say that they could win.

"Let's take it one step at a time!" King Xi of Yan also sighed and understood what Yan Chunjun meant.
