Eastern Jin Dynasty: My powerful father

Chapter 251 Worries of the Current Situation
After exchanging pleasantries with Liu Wuhuan and Liu Yan, Huan Xi finally looked at the officials from Yinchuan Shanyutai, led by Suo Xia and Che Yin.

"Since my northern tour, what I have seen along the way is that it is getting better and better. This is all due to you."

A very important task of Huan Xi's trip was to inspect the living conditions of the Xianbei tribe after they moved to the Hetao area.

Therefore, he stayed in Gaopingchuan for a long time.

Huan Xi praised Shan Yutai's officials in public today, which shows that he is satisfied with the current situation of Xitao Plain.

Everyone blamed the above, saying that it was the sage Liang Gong who was responsible for such a scene.

Huan Xi waved his hands and said:

"There is no need to shirk the credit for the work. Huan knows it well and will never let everyone's hard work go in vain."

When everyone heard this, they were all happy and excited.

Huan Xi did not need to talk to them one by one. He only exchanged a few words with the important officials of Shan Yutai, then returned to the carriage and entered the city surrounded by a group of officials.

After all, if others don't know Yao Xiang's true level, how can Huan Xi not know it?

As Huan Xi sat in the carriage, what he was thinking about was the current situation in the world.

Yao Xiang's death in Hebei can naturally be regarded as an emergency.

Huan Wen's current implementation of soil destruction in Jingzhou has caused dissatisfaction among the nobles and they dare not send troops rashly. Of course, the financial situation of Chu State does not allow him to send troops now.

Huan Qian and his guards Yi Cong camped outside the city, while Baibao Xianbei was released to reunite with his family.

With the support of the generals, Yao Chang has firmly established himself as the head of the Yao family, and the news of Yao Xiang's death has already spread. Huan Huo immediately sent the information to Huan Wen and Huan Xi.

Yao Xiang's death naturally had a significant impact on the current situation.

Although he took advantage of Murong Ke's military expedition to Qingzhou to launch a sneak attack on Hebei, Murong Chui, who is currently guarding Yecheng, is by no means a good person. Yao Xiang, who is the number one god of war in the Sixteen Kingdoms, cannot handle it.

Therefore, in the event of an emergency, four days would be enough for the information to be transmitted from Luoyang to Huan Xi.

It has to be said that since Huan Wen occupied Luoyang, he still provided some conveniences for Huan Xi, such as spying on the intelligence of Yan State.

Huan Xi already had a premonition that Yao Xiang would fail when he learned that Yao Xiang was sending troops to Hebei.

During the 700 miles between Luoyang and Chang'an, Huan Xi built a large number of post stations, and specifically ordered Deng Qiang, the prefect of Hongnong, to collect corvees and smooth the roads.

Luoyang and Hanoi County are so close that it is obviously much more convenient and easier than in the past whether it is sending detailed work or seeking information.

Otherwise, Luoyang is located in the middle of the world. Seven hundred miles to the east is Yecheng, and seven hundred miles to the west is Chang'an.

There has long been a post road between Chang'an and Yinchuan. The distance is more than 1,400 miles, and it only takes two or three days to deliver the message.

It was impossible for the Yan State to miss such an opportunity. It must have wanted to seize the opportunity to take over the Central Plains and occupy Yanzhou and Xuzhou.

But Huan Xi really didn't expect that Yao Xiang would die in Hebei.

With an expedited speed of 600 miles, the message can be delivered from Luoyang to Chang'an in just over a day.

Huan Xi was even inspecting the Hetao area, but was also restricted by financial conditions.

As for the Jin Dynasty, although Yao Xiang had previously released the captured soldiers, it would take more than a day or two to restore combat effectiveness, and he was also unable to rescue the Yao family.

As for Bingzhou, news came again that Fu Jian's condition was getting worse and he was now really unable to attend court. This was no longer the previous strategic deception against Dai Guo. To sum up, without reinforcements from outside, how could Yao Chang be able to defend Xu and Yanzhou.

I don’t know where the gossip came from, claiming that Yao Chang might surrender to Yan. Most of Huan Xi’s accompanying officials dismissed this, thinking that Yao Chang could not ignore the revenge of killing his brother, and might withdraw from the Central Plains and find another way to make a living.

But Huan Xi knew that there was nothing Yao Chang couldn't do. He could even pray to Fu Jian's statue after whipping him to death, until the battle failed, and then beheaded the statue and sent it to Qin.

Although Yao Chang is an immature white-eyed wolf, once the Yan Kingdom successfully takes over Xu and Yanzhou and takes the Qiang people as his own, Huan Huo, who is guarding Luoyang, will not even be able to sleep well. The pressure he will face , one can imagine.

As for the Jiangdong court, there is no need to be afraid.

Since the Yan State wanted to compete with the Huan family for supremacy in the north, it could no longer develop its navy. Without a strong navy, how could it attack Huainan and Jiangdong.

As for Yao Xiang's attack on Huainan, it was because Yin Hao's failure in the Northern Expedition caused a chain reaction and the Huainan defense line completely collapsed.

Murong Ying saw Huan Xi frowning and knew that he was worried about the current situation, but she didn't know how to relieve him.

Huan Xi came back to his senses, put aside his troubles, smiled and said:
"Are you happy to see Aying and Princess Zuoxian today?"

Murong Ying shook her head and said:

"I just feel weird. In terms of age, she is a little older than me, but she still calls me mother."

Huan Xi held Murong Ying in his arms and joked:
"If we don't call her mother and daughter, why should we still be her sisters?"

Murong Ying looked at Huan Xi strangely and said:
"Everyone knows that Huan Lang is keen on taking care of orphans and widowed mothers. How come he is thinking about other people's wives?"

Murong Ying and Huan Xi have been together for a long time, and they know that Huan Xi is not a serious person. Therefore, when the two of them are alone, Murong Ying often makes some witty remarks and does what he likes. For Huan Xi, this is also a good thing. A different kind of mood.

Huan Xi said quickly:
"Don't talk nonsense. If people listen to it, I'm afraid it will lead to misunderstanding."

Huan Xi was not afraid that Liu Wuhuan would misunderstand him, but he was worried that the people below him would try to figure out what he was doing and harm Liu Wuhuan's life.

Being lustful, Huan Xi couldn't do such a thing as killing someone and seizing his wife.

In fact, it is not entirely true to say that Huan Xi has no thoughts about Tuoba Yan. At the celebration banquet when Huan Xi defeated Fu Xiong, Tuoba Yan left a deep impression on him.

Seeing his guilty look, Murong Ying felt a little disappointed, but then she thought about it, if Tuoba Yan came in in the future, it wouldn't be all bad.

Huan Xi's harem will never lack fresh faces. If you want to compete for favor, you have to rely on your own abilities.

Although Murong Ying and Tuoba Yan are not related by blood, the relationship between mother and daughter has long been determined.

Sometimes, some other kind of stimulation is also a method.

From Murong Ying's point of view, Tuoba Yan may be the best helper for her.

Huan Xi didn't know what Murong Ying was thinking. When the carriage arrived at the residence, Huan Xi declined the request of Liu Wuhuan, Liu Lang and others to arrange a banquet for him and receive Feng Xichen.

Although the four-wheel carriage has been modified, some bumps are still inevitable.

Just now, he was chatting with everyone outside the city, which also made Huan Xi a little tired.

Since Huan Xi wanted to rest, everyone did not dare to force him, so they had to leave one after another.
