Xuanhu, on the north gate of the city, the emperor Yu Wengankeng was looking out of the city. Today, the Anzhou army set up a formation outside the city to fight against the Yuzhou army returning to Xuanhu. Although Xiyang Wang Yuwen vowed before the battle that he had absolutely no problem, he was still a little uneasy.

Yuwen Gankeng didn't want to wait for news in the official office, so he went up to the north gate tower to watch the battle. After seeing the Yuzhou army collapsed without fighting, he was excited and felt that his worries were swept away.

The military cavalry attendant Liu Jushi, Yu Wenji and others, who were on the side of the guards, were also happy. The threat from the Yuzhou army was lifted, and they could be at least safe and worry-free for at least a period of time. Of course, for Yu Wenji, another crisis has not been lifted.

He had a grudge with Yuwen Wen, so he was now trembling, fearing that one day he would lose his life inexplicably, and would follow the emperor all day long, trying not to let Yuwen Wen have the opportunity to take advantage of it.

The Xuanhu crisis was lifted, and Yu Wen and his decision were to blow the wind in the emperor's ear from time to time, so that the emperor would give up the idea of ​​staying in Xuanhu for a long time, and quickly go to Shannan. After the situation stabilized, they would turn to Chang'an, Guanzhong.

His father Yuwen Shu is now in Guanzhong, and as long as he stays away from Yuwen Wen, the "plague god", Yu Wen can sleep peacefully.

Yuwen Gankeng got Yu Wen and his help that day and escaped from Yecheng on a hot air balloon, so he always regarded Yu Wen as a reliable loyal minister. At this time, he was excited and saw Yu Wen and was distracted, so he asked:

"The Yuwen Wuqin seems to have something to worry about?"

"Ah, my Majesty, I'm thinking that if I can make the Yuzhou Chief Hoba Fuen, anyway, I'd like to summon the King's Army to serve the Kings and Horses."

"Well, the King of Xiyang said the same thing. Heba Fuen was a general of Qi back then. Later, he surrendered to the dynasty and saved Emperor Gaozu in Jinyang. He thought he was a loyal minister of my dynasty. It was only before that Yuchi was powerful that he bowed down and obeyed the order."

Before the war, when Yuwen Wen reported the preparations for the war to Yuwen Gankeng, he said that he should try his best to surrender Heba Fuen, the general manager of Yuzhou, and Yuwen Gankeng knew about the past when Heba Fuen saved Yuwen Yong (the temple name Gaozu).

So he felt that if Hoba Fuen could do anything, his success rate of calling on soldiers and horses from all over Henan to serve the king would increase greatly.

The General Manager is indeed loyal, but after all, the official position is not high. If a person at the General Manager level can stand on his side, the general will be more persuasive to other wait-and-see officials.

Yuwen Gankeng had thought that a big victory today would give him more time to send people to the surrounding prefectures and counties in Yuzhou to mobilize local officials to serve the king. When the Yuchi family was dispatched again to invade the enemy, he was also ready to defend against the enemy.

More importantly, the autumn harvest season is here!

Yuwen Gankeng was concerned about the autumn harvest situation. Li Yunxin, the chief of the Anzhou General Manager, stood beside him, replied: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the King of Xiyang has arranged for manpower to harvest grain. The Wei minister will supervise it personally, and he will be able to put the grain in Yuzhou into the warehouse when the next war begins."

"Changshi Li, when will the next reinforcements from the Anzhou General Administration arrive?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the second reinforcements mobilized by the Secretary of State will arrive in ten days."

"Li Changshi, is Shannan's troops strong enough?"

"Shangshu Ling said that Your Majesty's safety is more important than anything." Li Yunxin is a veteran in the officialdom and knows how to say beautiful words. "Your Majesty, please rest assured. Now that the siege of Fangcheng is lifted, the troops that the Shangshu Ling can mobilize will be more abundant."

Yuwen Gankeng nodded. He now felt how reliable the power of the royal family was. If three royal families had not stood up to fight against Yuchi Dun, his ending might have been to hide his identity and he would have really been to be seriously injured.

The war came to an end, and Yuwen Gankeng was in a relaxed mood. Seeing that Li Yunxin was not young, he started chatting with him. As he spoke, the topic turned to the past of the Qi Wang family.

The reason why Li Yunxin turned the topic to the Qi Wang family was to make the emperor closer to the royal family through subtle methods. This was a task assigned by Yu Wenming before leaving, so he naturally had to perform it conscientiously.

Li Yunxin was an old general of the Duke of Bin (Dao Yuwen). The brothers of Dao Yuwen and Yuwen Hu were the right-hand men of Taizu Yuwen Tai. Dao Yuwen died young, and his eldest son Yuwen Guang inherited his title and inherited the resources of Duke of Bin, including his troops and assistants, and Li Yunxin was among them.

However, Yuwen Guang died of his mother and was too sad, and his physical condition was getting worse and worse. He died of illness at the age of 30. Duke Bi's resources were taken over by Yuwen Erlang and Yuwen Guang's younger brother Yuwen Liang.

So Li Yunxin became Yuwen Liang's assistant, often entering and leaving the mansion. It can be said that he was watching Yuwen Liang's eldest son Yu Wenming and his second son Yu Wen Wen grow up.

Yuwen Liang's younger brother Yuwen Yi (formerly known as Yuwen Yi), died of illness at the age of nineteen. So Yuwen Liang adopted his young second son Yuwen Wen to his deceased brother to continue his incense and inherited the title of Duke of Xiyang County.

In the second year of the Elephant, Li Yunxin, like Du Shijun and Zheng Wanqing, was a close confidant of Qi, Wang Yuwen Liang, and was arranged by him to assist Dalang Yuwenming. Although his current official position is the Chief Secretary of the Anzhou General Administration, he actually exercised the power of Anzhou General Administration and was actually the Anzhou General Administration.

After hearing Li Yunxin's self-reported relationship with the Qi Wang family, Yuwen Gankeng sighed quite emotionally. He felt that if there were more loyal ministers like Li Yunxin in the Zhou State, how could the elephant's second year of chaos have happened?

"Your Majesty, the past is vivid in my mind. I still vaguely remember the old events of Tianhe..."

"During the Tianhe period? I remember that it was more than 20 years ago."

Li Yunxin nodded and said yes, and then got to the topic: "Your Majesty, when Duke Dang of Jin was tyrannical, King Qi was young and energetic at that time, and he did not know the importance of his actions. He followed Duke Dang of Jin to do whatever he wanted, and often did anything beyond the rules."

The Duke of Jin Dangyu Hu's tyranny of the emperor was a scar in the Zhou Kingdom and a political taboo. At this time, a corner of it was revealed by Li Yunxin, but Yuwen Gankeng did not have an attack, so listen quietly.

"Later, Emperor Gaozu was cheered up and Duke Dang of Jin was executed. King Qi was frightened and drank all day long. Emperor Gaozu learned that he wrote a letter. King Qi felt relieved after reading it, and he was devoted to defending the imperial family from then on."

"I have heard from someone about this matter. Although King Qi is the nephew of Duke Dang of Jin, I will never be suspicious for no reason."

Yuwen Gankeng is not a fool. He could hear Li Yunxin’s implication. The other party was worried that he thought Yuwen Liang would become Yuwen Hu’s second, which made him feel aggrieved. But no matter how things will develop in the future, he naturally knew what to say at this time.

"Your Majesty, can you tell me how King Qi talked about King Xiyang?" Li Yunxin brought up another topic.

"Well? I don't know."

Seeing that the emperor was interested, Li Yunxin replied: "The King of Xiyang acts a bit alternative and is often sued by others to King Qi, which makes King Qi unable to get along with him. He only sighs that his family is unfortunate and two rebellious sons have emerged in succession."

"Two?" Yuwen Gankeng was stunned when he heard this, a little confused. He wondered if King Qi had even cursed the prince Yu Wenming?

"Your Majesty, King Qi often says in private that King Xiyang is like him back then, young and energetic, and acts unruly, and is a rebellious son in his family."

"Ah? Hahahaha..." Yuwen Gankeng laughed. He never thought that Yuwen Liang would say Yuwen Wen like this. Li Yunxin's words reminded him of the past between him and his father.

Looking back now, he was naughty back then, and I'm afraid he was also the rebellious son in his father's eyes.

Therefore, King Qi was probably like King Xiyang today. He was young and energetic and unwilling to be bound by red tape. Sometimes he acted beyond the rules and was also an unintentional mistake. Therefore, Emperor Gaozu saw this and did not hold Yu Wen Liang responsible.

Yuwen Gankeng thought so, he was rescued by Yuwen Wen and had a good impression of Yuwen Wen. He was inspired by Li Yunxin's few words, and he also became more in love with Yuwen Liang.

This is exactly the effect Li Yunxin wants to achieve. The so-called "multiple words can melt gold and destroy bones". One of his responsibilities is to often say good things about the royal family in the ears of the emperor.

It is very important for those with ulterior motives to take the so-called "learning from the past" of Yu Wenhu, the Duke of Jin Dang, to sow discord between the emperor and the royal family. This is also an important task that Yu Wenming gave to Li Yunxin before leaving.

Yu Wenwen, who was sneaking into Xuanhu, actually met the emperor who was already "harmful and incurable" in the city. After Yu Wenming, who was in Anlu, learned the news, he immediately responded and specially sent Li Yunxin to Xuanhu to get the moon first.

The emperor wanted to stay in Xuanhu and call on soldiers from all over the country to support the king as much as possible. It is conceivable that he would face great military pressure. If Yu Wen Wen wanted to lead his troops, someone would have to help him in charge of other affairs.

In other words, Yuwen Wen’s clone is not skilled, so one party of the royal family must arrange other reliable people to follow the emperor closely.

This is the brief that Yu Wenming gave to Li Yunxin. The royal family represented by King Qi must not be influenced by others, and then suspicious of the royal family. Even King Qi does not want to become Yuwen Hu, nor does he want to become Yuwen Xian.

Yuwen Gankeng was chatting with Li Yunxin. Several generals climbed up the steps and came to the gatehouse, and handed over the head of the Yuzhou General Manager Heba Fuen to the emperor for a look.

"How...Hoba Fuen is unwilling to surrender? Why?"

Yuwen Gankeng felt a little unbelievable. Heba Fuen saved Gaozu Yuwen Yong back then, so he thought that the other party should be a loyal minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty. As a result...

"When you go back to your Majesty, the last general will block General Heba at the bank of Rushui, and then persuade them to surrender. General Heba said that his family is in Hebei and he does not want to betray the emperor or implicate his family, so he can only commit suicide in order to achieve both ends of life."

The general told a kind lie so that the emperor would not suffer any damage to his self-esteem. Yuwen Gankeng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and turned around and looked at the sky in the north.
