Eastern Jin Dynasty: My powerful father

Chapter 106 Death of Fu Chang
  When Fu Chang heard that the envoy came to pay homage to the camp, he was naturally happy.

He knew that his uncle could not just sit back and watch him being captured, and would definitely try his best to buy him back.

But now that he was defeated and captured, it was also a blow to his prestige.

Of course, as long as he can return to Hedong, he has many ways to rebuild his prestige.

In Fu Chang's expectation, someone finally came into the camp where he was being guarded, but it was slightly different from the scene he had imagined. The person who came was not to untie him, but came with a bright steel knife.

Fu Chang already understood his ending, and he asked calmly:
  "Huan Xi is not afraid that my father will fight to the death with him?"

At this time, a scribe walked in behind the sword and axehand. It was Quan Yi, Huan Xi's army adviser. He said:

"My lord is even more unwilling to see the Tiefu Xiongnu and the Fu family stop making peace.

"Besides, the one who ordered the execution of the young master was not my lord, but King Zuo Xian.

"The injustice has its owner, and the debt has its owner, so let the young master die in peace."

With that said, Quan Yi walked further away to avoid splattering himself with blood later. He ordered the swordsman and axehand:
  "Go ahead."

"Father! Avenge me"

Fu Chang's unwilling screams suddenly stopped. The sword and axe-hand received Quan Yi's order, raised the knife and dropped it, and the head rolled off Fu Chang's neck.

The evening wind blew into the camp, the firelight swayed, the light and shadow flickered, and Fu Chang's head looked more terrifying and terrifying.

Bingzhou, Yanmen.

"Chan'er!"

Fu Jian was awakened by the nightmare. He sat on the couch, breathing heavily.

Recalling the scene in the dream, Fu Chang held his head in his arms and cried to himself that his neck hurt. Even though he had woken up, Fu Jian still felt scared.

Shocked, he shouted loudly:

"Come on! Come on!"

The servant waiting outside hurriedly opened the door and entered. Fu Jian pointed at the visitor and said hurriedly:
  "Quick! Send people to the Hetao quickly to get Chang'er back! Go quickly!"

When the servant hurriedly left, Fu Jian wiped the sweat from his forehead and realized that his back was soaked.

Outside the Jin army camp, Quan Yi handed an exquisite brocade box to Wang Yuan. Wang Yuan took it with trembling hands. He could already foresee what Fu Jian and Fu Xiong would explode when they saw the heads in the brocade box. of anger.

Quan Yi saw him like this and comforted him:
  "Brother Wang, don't worry too much. Come to think of it, the Fu brothers are also sensible people, so why would they vent their anger on Brother Wang?"

It was okay not to say this, but now that he had said it, Wang Yuan was even more afraid, for fear that he would be implicated.

"This will help me get back to life."

Wang Yuan looked sad.

Before leaving, he said to Quan Yi:

"Previously, in the commander's tent, Liu Yan drew his sword at him, but Duke Huan stopped him, and Wang was able to survive.

"I just left in a hurry and didn't have time to express my gratitude to Duke Huan. I asked Brother Quan to convey it to me on my behalf."

Hearing this, Quan Yi sighed:

"Actually, my lord also admires Brother Wang very much. He originally wanted to fulfill Brother Wang's request, but he was worried that his generals would object, so he asked King Zuo Xian to decide this matter.

"I thought that King Zuo Xian was weak and would let Master Fu Chang go. Unexpectedly, King Zuo Xian was blinded by hatred, lost his mind, and insisted on killing Master Fu Chang, which led to today's disaster.

"My lord is deeply sorry for the death of Young Master Fu Chang, but he is even more worried that Brother Wang will be blamed by Fu Jian and suffer an unreasonable disaster.

"That's all, for the sake of getting to know Brother Wang, Quan boldly gave me a few words of advice.

"Brother Wang needs to emphasize how he argued with reason, but the Huns were unreasonable and held a grudge against Fu's invasion.

"Only by directing the anger of the Fu brothers towards the Tiefu Xiongnu can Brother Wang save his own life."

Quan Yi and Wang Yuan didn't know each other at first, but Wang Yuan came to Jin camp many times, so he naturally recognized them.

Wang Yuan was very moved after hearing Quan Yi's kind words. In fact, he would have pointed the finger at the two brothers Liu Wuhuan and Liu Yan without Quan Yi's guidance.

Quan Yi saw off Wang Yuan and on his way back to Shuai's tent to recover, he happened to bump into Deng Xia.

When Deng Xia saw Quan Yi, his eyes lit up. He quickly grabbed him and asked his doubts:
  "Mr. Quan, this opportunity was rare before. Why don't my lord take the opportunity to kill Liu Wuhuan, frame Wang Yuan's fault, and support Liu Kuantou's rise to power."

Quan Yi was very helpless. Although Deng Xia was a fierce general who fought hard, he really had no political acumen. If he didn't have a lord who could tolerate him, he would probably not have a happy ending.

He patiently explained:
  "General Deng now sees that Liu Kuantou is respectful to his lord. That's because the leader of the Tiefu tribe is still his brother Liu Wuhuan.

"Once Liu Kuantou is allowed to take the position of leader of the Tiefu tribe, who can guarantee whether he will continue to be loyal to the lord.

"It would be better to leave Liu Wuhuan behind and let their brothers compete secretly. The Tiefu Xiongnu will not be able to unite within themselves.

"Fu Chang's death was the suggestion of Liu Lang, and Liu Wuhuan made the final decision. Neither of them could escape their involvement.

"Faced with the threat from the Fu family, they can only act like jealous women vying for favor in front of their lord."

Don't look back at the time when he was in the Xitao Plain, Huan Xi encouraged Liu Kuantou: "Tiefu, the lord of the Xiongnu, should be a virtuous man. I really hope you can make your own decision." ’ ˆ ˆ But Huan Xi is destined not to let Tiefu Xiongnu have only one voice. Even if there is, it can only be his own voice.

Deng Xia suddenly realized it and was about to leave, but Quan Yi grabbed him and warned him:
  "My lord has far-sighted plans, it is not something you can guess. From now on, you only need to obey his orders, and you will not lose your position as Duke in the future. Remember, remember!"

Deng Xia was taught and said happily:
  "Thank you sir for your advice."

People's joys and sorrows are not connected with each other. While Deng Xia was rejoicing because of Quan Yi's words, "I will never lose my position as a prince," Liu Wuhuan returned to his camp feeling sad.

He lamented to his eldest son Liu Xiwuqi and second son Liu Weichen:
  "Today my father is forced to execute Fu Chang. We, the Tiefu Xiongnu, will never have peace in the future."

Liu Xiwuqi didn't know how to comfort his father. Instead, his young second son Liu Weichen said:

"The Fu family intends to invade the Hetao. Could it be that by letting Fu Jian go, my father can dispel Fu Jian's ambition?
  "The child wants to congratulate his father for this matter."

Liu Wuhuan was greatly puzzled:
  "My son said, where does joy come from?"

Liu Weichen smiled and said:
  "The authorities are confused, but bystanders are clear. Duke Huan asked you to execute Fu Chang. Of course, he wanted you to have a grudge against the Fu family, but it also shows that Duke Huan supports you in continuing to be the master of Tiefu."

Liu Wuhuan had lost consecutive battles before and had already lost all his prestige among the tribe. With the power of his victory, it was not impossible for Huan Xi to really want to support Liu Yan.

This is why Liu Wuhuan had no choice but to kill Fu Chang.

Now after listening to Liu Weichen's analysis, Liu Wuhuan suddenly realized that as long as there was no support from Huan Xi, there was no way Liu Yan could threaten his position.

Liu Yan also understood Huan Xi's intentions, but he could no longer look back. After offending the Fu family and having a rift in his relationship with his brother, Liu Yan had no choice but to go to the dark side and obey Huan Xi. .

The next day, after a brief rest, Huan Xi led his troops eastward to recover the Houtao and Qiantao areas.

Liu Yanhoutou had lost the command of the Huns' archers and cavalry.

This was originally given to him temporarily by Liu Wuhuan before the war. Now Liu Wuhuan is afraid that his younger brother will continue to exert influence among the bow cavalry, and naturally he does not want to see Liu Yan continue to command the bow cavalry.

Liu Yan was helpless.

However, Huan Xi, who said yesterday that he was a guest general and could not be the master, took the Xiongnu bow cavalry under his command before setting off and commanded them personally.

After all, recovering the Houtao and Qiantao plains was to help their Tiefu tribe, and there was no reason for the Jin army to do it alone.

As the commander-in-chief of the Battle of Langshan, Huan Xi now wants to take command of the Xiongnu archers and lead them to regain their lost territory. It is only natural.

At this time, Liu Wuhuan also felt the powerlessness Liu Yan had felt before, and Huan Xi's order could not be refused by him.

Even the Xiongnu archers and cavalry were all delighted when they heard that they were serving under Huan Xi.

Huan Xi saw the reactions of these people and became more confident in conquering the Xiongnu archers.

Xiaohuan sometimes talks about benevolence, justice and morality, but in fact, he has a temper that is unprofitable and can't afford to be early.

Now he is taking the initiative to help the Tiefu tribe regain their lost territory. In addition to taking advantage of the opportunity to grab loot, he also wants to take this opportunity to completely tame the Huns' horse archers and make them look up to him.

At the same time, Wang Yuan worked hard and finally caught up with Fu Xiong's retreating team.

Fu Xiong didn't see his nephew Fu Chang. Instead, he saw Wang Yuan coming with a brocade box, and felt bad.

"This, this must be Chang'er's."

Fu Xiong looked at the brocade box in front of him and muttered to himself in disbelief.

Wang Yuan felt ashamed and ashamed. He blamed Liu Wuhuan and Liu Kuantou for Fu Chang's death.

People have to leave a way out for themselves, not to mention Huan Xi's life-saving grace to him. Quan Yi also said before that Duke Huan admired him quite a lot.

As the saying goes, there are unforeseen circumstances, and maybe one day I will find a way to join the Huan family.

Fu Xiong tremblingly opened the brocade box and pushed aside the lime used for antisepsis.

What he saw was his nephew Fu Chang, the future heir of the Fu family.

Fu Xiong felt dizzy, his vision went dark, and he almost fell to the ground.

"Chan'er!"

Fu Xiong burst into tears.

His elder brother Fu Jian left his beloved son in his care, but now he can only take Fu Xiong's head back, which makes Fu Xiong not sure how to face his brother.

"Liu Wuhuan! Liu Kuantou! If I don't avenge this, I, Fu Xiong, will never be a human being!"

Fu Xiong did not doubt the truth of what Wang Yuan said. In fact, Wang Yuan did not lie. Fu Chang's death, at least judging from the indications, had nothing to do with Huan Xi.

Fortunately, Fu Xiong was not his father Fu Hong, so he did not vent his anger on Wang Yuan.

Wang Yuan was lucky enough to survive, but after this incident, he made up his mind that he would never be a messenger again.

Fu Xiong regained his composure. This was not the time to feel sad. He had to bring these soldiers back to Hedong.
