Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 72 Losing power
The ensuing adjustments to the deployment of troops and military exercises have aggravated the restlessness of the surrounding parties. On February 19, the second, third, and fifth divisions of the Northwest Army Corps and the newly joined Northwest Independent First Cavalry Division held the largest military battle since Li Wufeng took control of the Northwest on the prairie northwest of Qingyang. The Qingyang garrison division also cooperated with the joint combat exercise, the purpose of which was to test the army's rapid response capabilities in case of emergencies; A synthetic military exercise was conducted along the northern border of Germany, mainly to test the combat capability of the main force and local forces.
Combined with the speech delivered by Xiao Tang, this is an eye-catching signal. On February 22, the most influential newspaper of the Heathrow Empire, "Heathrow Evening News", published "What on earth is Li Wufeng going to do?" "The large version of the title expounds the recent changes in the situation in the northwest region of the Tanghe Empire, and asserts that the words and deeds of the Northwest Military and Political Governor's Office have seriously deteriorated the situation in the region. As a member of the region, the Heathrow Empire should maintain a high degree of Be vigilant to prevent escalation of the situation.
Spokespersons of the government of Yinchuan and other countries in the Western Regions have issued statements condemning the assassination of Wufeng, but they also called on the Northwest Military Government Jiedu Shifu to exercise restraint and make a conclusion after the assassination is fully investigated. The recent words and deeds of the Northwest Military and Political Governor's Office will not help the stability of the region.
The diplomatic representatives sent by various forces to Qingyang also communicated with the Northwest County Government through various channels. Representatives and envoys gathered in Qingyang to work hard to resolve the crisis.
"My lord, what do you think of the investigation conclusions of the internal affairs department?" Song Tianxiong, who had quietly entered the room after watching the three princesses of the Yuejing Kingdom leave, couldn't help but interrupt Wufeng's reverie.
At this moment, Wufeng is still immersed in the communication with the beauties just now. Li Qing, who had been visiting for a long time, was always embarrassed to go straight to the door because there was no better reason. Seeing this opportunity, he visited the injured Wufeng openly and aboveboard.
The other two princesses found that their eldest sister, who had always been quiet and elegant, had become much quieter after the reception a year ago, and she always looked a little out of control, and then recalled her behavior after meeting someone at the reception, Suddenly, I understood a lot. It turned out that the elder sister seemed to be attracted by the guy they dismissed.
When Li Qingke proposed to go to visit Wufeng, the two younger sisters expressed that they would go together, which puzzled the older sister Li Qingke. The two younger sisters who had a bad impression of Li Wufeng How did it change sex?
Wufeng, who was sitting in the study and was very bored, was overjoyed when the three princesses came to visit. Since Gu Dengyun was about to leave the imperial capital for the Kansai area with intelligence personnel from the northwest to establish an intelligence system according to Wufeng's arrangement, Gu Mingxia went shopping with her brother early on; The third princess, Situ Yushuang, invited her to participate in the activities of the Rose Covenant Club, a famous club among the high society women in the empire. She couldn't refuse, so she had to go.
Meanwhile, Qin Shuangying was busy with Song Tianxiong and began to prepare for the recruitment of reliable Jianghu masters as Wufeng's personal bodyguards, analyzing the strength of each Jianghu sect, and investigating all kinds of personnel who intend to join Wufeng's command And understanding, these complex tasks need to be completed by someone who has a considerable understanding of the empire's rivers and lakes.
As the Imperial Martial Arts Examination has entered the final stage, many sects have already begun to prepare to return home, and many sect children hope to enter the army or government through other channels. Song Tianxiong's plan got a very good opportunity, but the huge workload made it difficult for him to support himself alone, and Gu Dengyun was about to leave. Wufeng put his idea on Qin Shuangying's head. Qin Shuangying's incisive analysis of many things Wufeng was greatly surprised, and then realized that not all the women around him have a beautiful appearance, and they all have their own unique strengths and advantages in many aspects.
However, due to the severe security situation, Song Tianxiong and all the women around Wufeng insisted that Wufeng not leave the mansion unless there were special matters. The visit of the three princesses made the bored Wufeng extremely happy, and the spacious study became the best place for Wufeng to communicate with the three princesses on state affairs, current situation, literature and art.
This time, Wufeng has fully demonstrated his excellent eloquence, whether it is talking about state affairs and the current situation with Princess Qingke or even the current chaotic and complicated war changes in the south, or talking with Princess Qingshi about traditional Tang poetry and prose Even the poems circulated in various places in mainland China, or talking with Princess Qingyun about the development of music in ancient and modern China and abroad, all of them showed their proud talents in front of the three beauties.
Of course, Wufeng is not omnipotent, so it is easy to analyze the current situation of the country, but when it comes to poetry and music, Wufeng cleverly avoids the topic of the Tang nationality's own art and culture, and instead talks about special features. Talking about the development of poetry and music in the Western Continent, fortunately, although the two princesses are very knowledgeable about the art and culture of the Tang nationality, they don’t know much about the art of the distant Western Continent. His artistic knowledge was brought into full play and he achieved great success, eventually winning the favor of the two princesses.
It was only after chatting with the beauties that Wufeng deeply realized why time flies by in the blink of an eye. When the three princesses bid farewell, Wufeng was full of desire, but he also knew the truth that haste makes waste. We have already established a good relationship, so we don’t have to worry about opportunities anymore. After repeatedly expressing our thanks to the three princesses for visiting him, Wufeng also sincerely expressed that he must pay a return visit. Feng was still out of his wits after the other party left for an hour, and it was not until Song Tianxiong called him several times that he barely recovered.
"What? What did you say?" Wufeng still looked dazed.
"My lord, I want to ask you what you think about the investigation results of the internal affairs department?" Song Tianxiong patiently repeated his question.
"Oh, the investigation results of the General Administration of Internal Affairs?" Wu Feng finally withdrew his thoughts, "Hmph, what results can they come up with? It's ambiguous and vague. It means that there is no result. I don't have any hope at all. This If our partners can accurately detect our whereabouts, it means that we have premeditated, followed and watched carefully, and they must have hidden lairs in the imperial capital, otherwise they would not be able to be so secretive without being detected by the internal affairs department and the police station. They were detected by human hands. Moreover, after the operation was completed, there were still many people who cooperated with them, thus successfully escaping, which shows that they are a powerful combination, not a temporary gathering of personnel."
Song Tianxiong nodded silently, thought for a while before asking: "Then who do you think these people will be behind?"
"Hey, there are quite a few people in the imperial capital who want me to die, but it's definitely not what the interior department deduced, the Northwest and the Western Regions? Are there such stupid assassins in the world? They come to carry out the assassination and carry documents related to their origins." Ridiculous, naive!" Wufeng showed a secretive smile, "However, this can be regarded as evidence, maybe it can be used in the future, hahahaha!"
Song Tianxiong didn't fully understand his master's thinking, but he knew that whenever Wufeng showed this strange smile, it meant that new ideas came out, but this was not within the scope of his concern.
"I heard that Lei Juetian was also attacked in the Nanyang Alliance? Why is this guy just as unlucky as me? He seems to be injured more than me. It seems that some people have already resorted to unscrupulous methods." Wufeng said with a smile Another topic.
"Yes, my lord, who do you think would do it?" Song Tianxiong was also very interested in this issue, and the media of the empire also made a large report on this incident.
"Well, it's hard to say, Lei Juetian is the same as me. He has offended too many people. It's not surprising that anyone attacks him. It's just that there are only a handful of people who can mobilize such a powerful force. Both the Lin Lang family may be ~IndoMTL.com~ The possibility of the empire is not ruled out, and even the Milanese are also possible." Wufeng is not sure about this point.
"However, the vigor of killing the Maqihan people is good. They are too prominent. With Lin Lang's family restraining them from the flanks, the life of the Maqihan people may not be so easy. This time's method is really unusual." Wufeng easily saw through He Zhiqiu's strategy.
When Wufeng recovered and went to court to thank him, His Majesty the Emperor's kind comfort made Wufeng feel that it was an illusion that he wanted to leave the imperial capital under normal circumstances, so he gave him a one-year vacation plus a five-star medal , It may be a great gift to anyone, but Wufeng knows how many people are cheering and excited behind it.
With the passing of the fifteenth day, the hustle and bustle of the festival gradually dissipated, and everything returned to normal. In fact, Wufeng, who had been idle, seemed more idle than ever before. Apart from strengthening his own safety, he seems to have no other actions. Even if he occasionally goes up to the court, he has a relationship with the officials, and discusses that there will be those beautiful women in the dance or party at night. Everything has become like this calm.
The sensitive nobles of the imperial capital seem to have noticed this change. The rumor that Duke Li Wufeng has lost power and that His Majesty the Emperor intends to let him enter the Advisory Council for the elderly is quietly circulating in the upper class of the imperial capital.
The saying that His Majesty the Emperor intends to marry the princess has long since disappeared, and there has been no news of the nobles who flocked to propose marriage in the past. Apart from continuing to participate in the daily social activities of the upper-class nobles, Wufeng seems to have been completely Expelled from the scope of the power center, the situation has changed like this in just over a month, but this does not mean that everyone thinks so.
