Horse on the World

Chapter 410 The Allure in the Duke's Eyes
An Guogong walked around the room a few times, calmed down a little, sat back by the charcoal fire, and cleared his mind.Slowly said: "If that person in Xingzhou is really the late emperor, then we can be sure that Xiang Shi must be a hidden weapon in his hands. Xiao Haoran thought he had the trick, but he didn't expect that there was a sharp knife behind him. The knife was right in his back."

"When the Xiao family defeated King Ning, it was the day when the Xiao family lost a lot." Qingfeng added. "Old man, you are a great expert in military affairs. Let's analyze it. What will they do to achieve this?"

Duke An closed his eyes and thought for a moment, "Xiao Haoran gave up Qinzhou and Jinzhou to lure King Ning's army to go deep. I guess Xiao Haoran might let King Ning's army go deep into Minzhou in order to ensure the success of the first battle, but So far, in Minzhou, Xiao Haoran must have prepared a big surprise for King Ning. Suppose Xiao Haoran succeeds in the first battle and defeats King Ning. After winning the territory, even Gaizhou and Qingzhou could not be preserved. Xiao's army attacked aggressively and counterattacked into the area controlled by King Ning. Ning, Deng, Lin, and Bo. In King Ning's old lair, they fought a decisive battle with King Ning, and the army lost more than half The current King Ning will be struggling, but when Xiao Haoran is full of ambition, there will be a sudden change. Xingzhou will send troops to cut off Xiao Haoran's retreat and cut off his food supply. The Xiao's army will inevitably be in chaos. "

"In the Xiao family's backyard, the descendant Xiang family took the opportunity to eradicate the Xiao family's foundation and completely wiped out the Xiao family. King Ning also lost his vitality during the battle, and was no longer able to resist the joint attack of Qu Yongjie and Xiang family in Xingzhou. Defeat is just around the corner." Qingfeng continued, "But they didn't consider the old man's Yizhou in their plan?"

An Guogong said with a wry smile: "Perhaps in the late emperor's plan, under the joint efforts of Qu Yongjie and Xiang Shi, Yizhou would either succumb and join their ranks, or die. How do you think I will choose?"

"One moment is another moment!" Qingfeng sneered, "I'm afraid he never imagined that the general would develop such a powerful force in Dingzhou in such a short period of time, and the current Yizhou might cause him a big headache." Bar?"

An Guogong nodded, "In Yizhou now, it is true that he should be wary. I think before Li Qing is dealt with, he will only win us over to join his camp in Yizhou."

"Yes, deal with Li Qing!" An Guogong said: "Princess Qingcheng is a variable. If Tianqi is really dead, Qingcheng will be a good mistress of Dingzhou. If Tianqi is really not dead, Princess Qingcheng will become a Take a sharp dagger."

Qingfeng said disapprovingly: "The old man has a high opinion of Qingcheng, right? Her martial arts are high, and she can be regarded as a strong general in the army, but if she wants to shake the political situation in Dingzhou, I'm afraid she doesn't have the energy yet?"

An Guogong looked at Qingfeng and said with a smile: "Qingfeng, your mind and strategy are top-notch, but you have one shortcoming, maybe you don't know it?"

Qingfeng leaned forward and said, "I also ask the old man for advice!"

"But most of the most intelligent people are people with high eyesight, and very few people can fall into their eyes. You may be one of them. In Dingzhou, there is no one who can really convince you How many?" An Guogong laughed.

Qingfeng smiled and said without any concealment: "That's right, besides the general, there are only a few people!"

Mr. An Guo nodded, "I think so too. However, you underestimate Qingcheng too much. When Qingcheng arrived in Dingzhou, maybe in front of you, he showed domineering and domineering at first, but later he was flattering and cautious, but you think Have you ever thought, why did Qingcheng control the palace guards for so long? Is it just because of her extraordinary martial arts?"

"Did she do it on purpose for me to see?" Qingfeng was startled.

"Qingcheng married to Dingzhou with an obvious political purpose, and as a new force, Dingzhou is quite stable in terms of political structure. If she wants to make a difference, she must find ways to stir up trouble."

"So with her arrogant and rude behavior in front of me, she wants to provoke me!" Qingfeng's face was extremely ugly.

An Guogong glanced at Qingfeng, "She doesn't need to work hard to know the fight between you and Shang Haibo. Shang Haibo is on guard against you. If you plot something against her in a fit of anger, you will definitely die." Let Shang Haibo lean to her side, and she is the mistress of Dingzhou, if you really attack her, most of the Dingzhou Group will definitely fall to her, and even Li Qing will be suspicious of you."

Cold sweat broke out on Qingfeng's forehead, and he asked himself, when there was no one in the middle of the night, why didn't he think about it?
"Fortunately, you are extremely calm, keeping Dingzhou's power structure stable, and you have repeatedly tolerated Shang Haibo. Of course, you must have made small moves in private, but this is harmless." An Guogong laughed.

Qingfeng was a little embarrassed.

"Following the sudden death of Emperor Tianqi, Yan Nanfei, Princess Qingcheng's main counselor, was sent away from afar, and Qingcheng's attitude took a 180-degree turn. The mistress of the state is gone, you, Shang Haibo, Lu Yiming and the others are very likely to regard it as a dead tiger, right?" Anguo said.

Qingfeng nodded, "Princess Qingcheng has no wings now, and the only hope is that although Qin Ming controls a battalion of armed forces, it is difficult to do anything under the supervision of Lu Dalin."

An Guogong slapped his hands, "Look, this has achieved her goal. From the beginning, she was the focus of everyone's attention, and now no one is paying attention to her."

"The Duke said that she still has some tricks in the dark?"

"This is just my speculation!" An Guogong said with a smile: "Under the great fame, there are no worthless men, and the alluring world is famous, not only in terms of martial arts. Now she is indeed without claws and teeth, but once Yuan Fang and her After getting in touch? With the energy of the staff under Yuan Fang's control, Qingcheng can do a lot of things."

Qingfeng's expression became serious, "But what can Qingcheng do in Dingzhou today? I really can't think of it."

An Guogong also shook his head, "I'm just talking about a certain possibility. As for how to do it and how to do it, I'm not Qingcheng, and I don't know, but I only know that if she doesn't start it, once she does, it will be a shocking blow." , must be the winner who can turn the world around. You know, she is the mistress of Dingzhou, just imagine, what if something happened to Li Qing?"

Qingfeng stood up abruptly, "Does she want to assassinate the general?"

An Guogong laughed loudly: "Qingfeng, the so-called caring is chaotic. Qingcheng is not that stupid. He dared to do this, but he was only going to a desperate situation. If Qingcheng knew that Tianqi was not dead, then she would definitely choose an excellent time to do it. But definitely not to assassinate Li Qing."

Qingfeng has become a little disturbed. An Guogong's speculation is too shocking, completely beyond her expectations. Now she feels that things are completely out of her control, "Guogong, will Qingcheng really do this? Is she The mistress of Dingzhou is the general's first wife! And she will soon become the mother of the general's child."

An Guogong sneered, "If Tianqi is really not dead, you should know that the way people in the royal family do things is different. In their eyes, family affection and so on are all jokes. Why is Tianqi's generation outstanding?"

Zhong Jing sneered and said, "One kill, one kill!"

An Guogong laughed: "General Zhong is really a chivalrous woman in the world. It is really easy to kill Qingcheng with a single sword, but if Qingfeng dares to do it, it will immediately destroy the nest, and even implicate Jiyue. Now, what evidence do you have? There is a disaster in Dingzhou in Qingcheng, and everyone will only think that it is an internal struggle in Dingzhou. Your director deliberately killed the mistress, and you want to enter the house. In this way, there will inevitably be turmoil in Dingzhou, and you will no longer be able to march into the Central Plains. They can only retreat to the west, then after Tianqi cleans up the old rivers and mountains, they can have spare power to deal with Li Qing, and their goal has also been achieved."

"Then can we just watch Qingcheng make trouble secretly?" Zhong Jing said unconvinced.

An Guogong shook his head, "That's not necessarily true, I think since Qingfeng already knows these things, he must do things with a clear purpose and be more targeted. "

Qingfeng nodded and said: "The Lord is right. Dingzhou is planning to plot against the Lu family in the north right now, and Qingcheng is very likely to not know about Emperor Tianqi, so there shouldn't be any big moves. After I go back, I will strengthen my response to this matter." The deployment of the aspect is to fight against it before it happens, but this matter has to be discussed with the general, otherwise it will cause the general to misunderstand?"

An Guogong shook his head, "Qingfeng, it seems that you don't know Li Qing very well, I'm afraid he is much more sober than you in some matters, but in his position, sometimes he is more of a spectator." That's all."

Qingfeng was silent for a while, before saying: "Grandpa, although we have said so much, but everything is based on speculation, it is really uncertain, I want to ask the old man to leave Luoyang. If it is as we guessed , Luoyang is no longer safe."

Duke An laughed and said, "Go back to Yizhou, and take a trip to Xingzhou to see that so-called Mr. Long?"

Qingfeng smiled, "That's right, Mr. Long, whether it's a real dragon or a fake one, you can't hide it from your old man's discerning eyes."

"You want to force him to have an early showdown?"

"At least let him have a showdown with us!" Qingfeng said, "As long as you show up in Xingzhou, Mr. Long will know that most of the things have been guessed by us, so he has no other choice but to show us."

"Not necessarily!" An Guogong said with a smile: "But now that I'm being watched to death, how can I get out of the capital?"

Qingfeng smiled and said: "Don't lie to me, old man. If you want to leave, you can definitely go. What's more, I have also come to Luoyang. If the ability of the Statistics and Investigation Department and Shadow can't take you away from Luoyang safely , then Senior Li Zonghua and I will be ashamed!"

Zhong Jing also smiled and said, "It's like the old man's study, it seems that there are only three of us, but there are two behind the wall, who have been with us for so long."

Duke An laughed, "If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't be able to hide it from you, Li Wen and Li Wu, come out!"

The secret door of the study room opened silently, and two middle-aged men about forty years old came out, "General Zhong is very skillful, did you spot our brother as soon as he entered the door?" A middle-aged man with a long beard smiled. road.
