"I won't worry about these things, how to go, wherever I go, when to set off. Anyway, I just look around and let my grandson take charge of other things."

"I understand." Chi Hou nodded.

As the divine lord who is in charge of the country, how could he not hear what Yan Qianli meant and could make a person like Yan Qianli say the word "master"?

In fact, the intention inside is already obvious.

As for the Bai people who went to Yan Qianli to enter Yanjing this trip, we can also guess one or two.

Establish authority!

Establish authority for the future Lord of Xiliang.

Then, of course, this power cannot be established in Xiliang, but in Yanjing City. If he guessed correctly, after this trip to Yanjing City, the location of the future lord of Xiliang will be almost certain.

only……

Yan Qianli took to Beijing at this time, and then went to Beishan Village with Yan Xiu first, and then went to Beijing after a "muddy water".

What is the deep meaning in this? I'm afraid only Yan Qianli himself knows.

Chi Hou had not been to speculate too much, but he was sure that Yan Qianli's trip to Beijing would definitely not be as simple as the ones said on the surface.

Could it be that the Western Liang Yan family is going to start participating in the battle for the throne?

Or, what more is there?

No matter what, you must notify Duan of this matter in advance. After all, if you can get Yan Qianli's support in the battle for the throne, it will undoubtedly be a huge help.

...

In the next three days, Yan Xiu moved into the Fang family courtyard, while Fang Zhengzhi took Yan Xiu around the academy and Beishan Village.

As for Yan Qianli, he has never shown up.

Chi Hou originally intended to have a contact with Yan Qianli during these three days and explore Yan Qianli's idea, but Yan Qianli has been living in the military account where Yan Yunqi is stationed.

Not only did he not see him, he did not even mean to see him.

Three days later, Fang Zhengzhi finally bid farewell to Beishan Village and embarked on the way to Yanjing City with Yan Xiu. Behind them, two thousand red feather guards and three thousand Yanyun cavalry were followed.

Zhang Yangping led Fang Houde, Qin Xuelian and a group of villagers to stand at the entrance of the village, looking at the vast crowd, and it was impossible to say that it was impossible without any sense.

only……

As a group of ordinary villagers, how can they control these people in front of them?

"Village Chief, do you think integrity will be..."

"No! Shenhou said that his purpose here is to help Zhengzheng. Then, Shenhou will definitely seek justice for Zhengzheng after he goes to Yanjing City!"

"Just..."

"Damn, let's go back. Maybe we'll be back in a while!"

"There won't be any surprises, right?"

"No, absolutely not!"

...

The spring breeze blows, this is a season full of fragrance, but the capital city has a kind of storm before it is about to come.

In the Prince's Mansion.

Dozens of court officials in various court uniforms were waiting outside the prince's study, and their faces were more or less anxious.

In the study, the prince Lin Tianrong, wearing a silver brocade robe, sat behind the desk, glanced at the ministers below, and his face was gloomy.

On the desk, there was a pile of torn paper, which could be seen as an emergency letter sent in from outside.

"What a God's Mansion. It's obvious that I am against this prince. Tell me, what should I do now?" Prince Lin Tianrong swept his hand and a teacup broke to the ground with a bang.

Below, the courtiers looked at this scene and shook their heads one after another.

"Your Highness, Chi Hou has been the right-hand man of King Duan for years. This time he escorted Fang Zhengzhi back to Beijing and handed over to Shengzhai, which was expected." A moment later, a court official spoke.

"Yes, the problem now is not the Shenhou Mansion, but the Xiliangyan clan..." Another court official also had a little flashing in his eyes when he talked about the Xiliangyan clan.

"We really didn't expect that King Yan... Yan Qianli would come out of Xiliang because of this incident. In this way, it would be basically unlikely to set up ambush along the way."

"Yes, it is already very difficult to deal with two thousand Red Feather Guards. If you have to fight against three thousand Yanyun Cavalry at the same time, you will be afraid that the military will only be able to mobilize the military power. However, most of the military power is still in the hands of King Duan. It is really difficult to not show any clues of clutch!"

"Yan Qianli entered the capital, and the emperor was very likely to welcome him out of the palace. If the emperor really greeted the gate of Yanjing City, it would be a bit troublesome."

"Will Fang Zhengzhi still dare to turn things around when he sees the emperor?"

"With a straight and upright personality, it is impossible for Hu Fang to say a few random words. If any rumors are really spread, it will be very unfavorable to His Royal Highness and the country."

"You must not let him enter Beijing!"

"Everyone is worried!" A voice rang out at this time, and then the Minister of Justice Wan Chong also stood up: "In fact, Fang Zhengzheng's case has been decided long ago, and our Ministry of Justice has also issued a compilation notice. The Holy Judgment was not something he said when the Divine Hou Mansion said it. There is no new evidence, this case is still an iron case. Your Highness the Crown Prince does not need to worry!"

"Mr. Wan said it makes sense. We still need to be calm and not lose our composure!"

"Yeah yeah!"

After hearing the words of the Minister of Justice Wan Chong, the ministers of the Ministry of Justice, they all agreed.

At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing the official uniform of the Ministry of Rites also stood up, gently rectified the official uniform, and gave a light salute to Prince Lin Tianrong behind the desk.

"There is another thing that needs to be reported to the prince. I have received news from the Southern Region King that will come to the capital to meet the saint soon. I am wondering... Will this matter have something to do with Fang Zhengzhi?"

“…”

Silence, more than a dozen courtiers looked at me one by one, and I looked at you, and finally stopped talking because, suddenly, there were too many things coming.

Starting with Fang Zhengzhi's appearance in Huaian County.

Things came one after another, without even a moment of breathing.

Is it a coincidence or a plan? No court official dared to make a statement in person, but they always felt that these things were too coincidental.

The left prime minister Yu Yiping sat in the head of the court officials, gently tapped his fingers on the armrest of the chair, his eyes swept over the court officials, and finally fell into a sergeant kneeling on the ground in the middle.

"Has Yan Qianli said in the investigation that what did Yan Qianli do in Beishan Village?" Zuo Xiangyu Yiping's lips moved and finally spoke.

"Return to Prime Minister, King Yan has not shown his face in Beishan Village." The soldier immediately reported.

"I haven't shown up? Then how did you get Yan Qianli and Fang Zhengzhi to enter Beijing together?" The left prime minister Yu Yiping frowned slightly.

"Although King Yan did not show up, he talked with Chi Hou in Yanyun Cavalry, but he was unable to leave the bill later, so our investigation did not meet King Yan."

"You mean Yan Qianli went to Beishan Village, but he did not enter the village, nor did he meet Chi Hou and Fang Zhengzheng, but he kept his account from being closed?"

"Yes!"

"I can't leave the account, I can't leave the account... So that's it, so that's it!" Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping also flashed in his eyes when he heard this.

When the other court officials heard the words of the Left Prime Minister Yu Yiping, they were all looking at me one by one. When I looked at you, they didn't quite understand the profound meaning of this.

"Secretary Yu, the King of Yan cannot leave the account. What is the meaning here?" A court official asked tentatively after receiving the gesture of Prince Lin Tianrong.

"Yan Qianli has been the King of Yan in Xiliang for so long, but he is so old that he has become a spirit. He will never show his trump card until the last moment." The left prime minister Yu Yiping looked at the direction of Xiliang, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"What does Yu Xiang mean?" The court officials were a little confused.

"Yan Qianli may not necessarily help Fang Zhengzheng." Zuo Prime Minister Yu Yiping affirmed.

"But Yan Qianli came out of Xiliang and went directly to Beishan Village. If he had no intention of helping Fang Zhengzhi, what was his intention?"

"For Yan Xiu!" Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping said again.

"Yu Xiang means that Yan Qianli came to Beijing not for the sake of integrity, but for Yan Xiu?"

"right!"

"I still don't understand. Please give me some advice." When the courtier heard this, he looked at the still confused eyes around him, pondered for a moment, and asked again.

"Yan Qianli is old, so he must consider the future of Xiliang. If I guess well, Yan Qianli should be preparing to hand over Xiliang to Yan Xiu." Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping explained.

"Leave Xiliang to Yan Xiu? Yu Xiang, this is probably not what Yan Qianli alone says? Although Xiliang has always been guarded by the Yan family, that is because Yan Qianli is there. If Yan Qianli is not there, Yan Qianli will be a foreign clan after all. Even if the emperor wants to hand Xiliang to the Yan family, he will probably send a mansion in the Thirteenth Prefectures to be in, right?"

A court official heard the words of the left prime minister Yu Yiping and stood up to express his opinion.

"Yes, this is the problem!" Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping nodded.

"Does Yu Xiang mean..."

"Yan Qianli has been in charge of Xiliang for so many years, but has never let anyone really interfere in the military power of Xiliang. Do you think he will agree to let the Thirteen Prefectures enter Xiliang?" asked the left prime minister Yu Yiping.

"No." The courtiers answered directly without thinking.

"That's right, Yan Qianli will never let this happen, so whoever can help him realize this wish will naturally support whom in the battle for the throne!"

"I understand. Although Yan Qianli went to Beishan Village, he did not show up. This means that he had not made a choice yet. As a result, the trip to Beishan Village was to throw stones and ask for directions, and the olive branch of the prince or Duan was waiting for!" The courtiers finally lit up when they heard this.

"Yu Xiang really woke up the dreamer with one word. Gao Jian, it's indeed Gao Jian!" When the other court officials heard this, they nodded one after another.

"However, although Yan Qianli has not made a choice, he still walked into the capital with Fang Zhengzheng. The emperor must welcome him. What should we do?" Another court official asked again.

"As long as Yan Qianli has not chosen yet, things will turn around!" Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping said again.

"Let's listen to Yu Xiang's great views!" When several court officials heard this, they all stood up and saluted respectfully at the left prime minister Yu Yiping.
