(Thank you very much for the generosity of 'cagewell123' and the support of the monthly ticket.)
At a time when Wang Long was worried about the disappearance of the Seventh Lady and the precarious position of his suzerain, Wang Junlin unexpectedly appeared. Normally, he would have enough patience to deal with Wang Junlin so that the Wang family would always be in the safest position, but at this time he did not have that much patience.
Of course Wang Junlin knew that what Wang Long said was just big talk. He came here today to solve practical problems and to get a clear answer or guarantee from Wang. Wang Junlin straight to the point said: "The prince is worried about the disappearance of Mrs. Seven."
Wang Long's expression finally changed for the first time. He stared at Wang Junlin, and finally turned into a look of surprise, and said: "Qin Angong is really well informed, and he even knows about the disappearance of a daughter of my Wang family." .”
Wang Junlin thought that this old man could really pretend, so he sneered in his heart, and said with a half-smile on his face: "This junior not only knows that the prince's seventh wife is missing, but also knows why she disappeared. Of course, this junior also knows a lot of other things." Things, such as the reason why Wang Zhi, the eldest son of the prince, lost his mind today."
Finally, Wang Long's face changed drastically. He stood up abruptly, staring at Wang Junlin, his eyes flashed with murderous intent, his expression fluctuated. Said coldly: "Wang Junlin, you are not afraid that I will kill you."
Wang Junlin sneered and said: "Your Majesty, you know how a few days ago this junior sneaked into the palace of the King of Han and killed Yang Liang, the King of Han, and then broke through the south gate of Taiyuan in Gao Ying's army and walked away."
Only then did Wang Long remember all the horrific deeds of the people in front of him, his pupils shrank slightly, and he wanted to grit his teeth to say something, Wang Junlin said again: "So, the prince had better not let the five people who were ambushing outside the door come in, otherwise the first The one who dies is the prince."
Wang Long took a deep breath, his face was pale, but he didn't know what he thought of, he returned to his place, smiled miserably, took a sip from his teacup, and was about to say something, when Wang Junlin said again: "No one dares to say anything. I was so murderous that I dared to drink the tea placed in front of me."
"Puff!"
"Cough cough cough!"
Wang Long spit out the tea in one gulp, thinking that he might have been poisoned by the poisonous general, his face turned pale with horror.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, this junior can take care of the poison that your Majesty is suffering from. Of course, the premise is that your Majesty is willing to conspire with this junior and make great contributions to the court." Wang Junlin said calmly.
Wang Long's complexion changed several times, and finally he said with a gloomy face: "If what I have planned with you puts my Wang family in danger, I will not die, and I will definitely do my best today. Stay in my Wang's courtyard."
Wang Junlin sighed, and said: "My lord, let's not talk about whether you Wang can keep the younger generation here, or how many of you will die if you leave me. If I have a mistake today, the lord and his son will share a share. The concubine will be announced to the world immediately."
Wang Long sat down on the ground, and the determination to die on his face suddenly disappeared. He could die for his family, but he never wanted to spread the scandal between himself and the Wang family to the world. What they care about, the more famous and high-ranked literati, the more they care about their own reputation, even more than their own lives.
Wang Junlin hit the iron while it was hot, and said: "Perhaps the prince doesn't know yet! The prince's seventh lady was originally instructed by Xiaoxiao's generation to deliberately seduce the prince's eldest son Wang Zhi."
When Wang Long heard the words, his body shook, and he lost his voice: "What you said is true?"
Without waiting for Wang Junlin to answer, Wang Long muttered to himself again, with a dazed expression on his face, and said, "So that's the case, he really has vicious intentions for the position of suzerain."
Wang Junlin saw that the time was ripe, and said at the right time: "Of course, if the prince agrees to conspire with the junior, the junior can help the prince kill the villain behind the seventh lady who covets the position of the prince and suzerain. And I guarantee that the prince will not reveal his scandal." in the world."
Wang Long didn't hesitate long before he made a decision: "I promised Qin Angong that I would like to seek great things with Qin Angong, but I don't know what Qin Angong wants my Wang family to do?"
Wang Junlin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Before conspiring with major events, the younger generation will help the prince to completely control the Wang family first."
Wang Long sighed, and said: "My Wang family must never allow brothers to kill brothers."
Wang Junlin had expected that he would say this, and said with a cold snort: "Of course the person who killed Wang Xiong, the prince's younger brother, was not the prince or the junior, but Gao Ying's confidant in Taiyuan City. The prince just needs to be ready to take over Kaohsiung's forces."
Wang Long's eyes flashed, and he said: "This is a strategy that kills two birds with one stone. Qin Angong really deserves his reputation. If Gao Ying's people take action, when the time comes, my Wang family will cooperate with Qin Angong to control Taiyuan. It will be an act of righteousness."
…
…
When Wang Junlin sneaked into Taiyuan City, threatened the Wang family, and conspired with Taiyuan City, Yang Yichen, the forward of the Northern Expedition under Yang Su's command, had already led an army of 30,000 to Anyi Town in Hedong County.
Yang Yichen is one of Yang Su's most important generals in the army. He once accompanied Yang Su to conquer the Turks in the north and defeated the East Turks. After that, he was named the governor of Shuozhou. He was transferred to his command and led his 30,000 Shuozhou direct lineage army as a forward general.
Yang Yichen is very grateful to Yang Su for giving him the opportunity to make great contributions. He is not young anymore. one more chance.
The Bingzhou army that faced Yang Yichen was an army of forty thousand led by Gao Ying's confidant Gao Shishan. , the other 20,000 are recruits recruited by Yang Liang in the past few years, who have not yet been on the battlefield and have seen blood.
Gao Shishan was very aware of this and asked Gao Ying for help. However, Yang Su was skilled in military tactics and had rich experience. The third-line army suppressed the situation, forcing Gao Ying to fight separately, and Gao Shishan was the only ones who could give Gao Shishan these troops, so Gao Shishan did not have much confidence in Yang Yichen's battle.
At the end of September, Yang Yichen's 30,000 Shuozhou Army and Gaoshishan's 40,000 Bingzhou Army finally met, and the two armies set up a battlefield in a field twenty miles north of Anfang Town.
"Boom—boom—boom!"
The drums are beating one after another, the rhythm is not fast, more like a reminder of combat preparations, but each drum beat is like hitting the heart of a person, making people breathless with tension, a kind of The depression before the war hangs in everyone's heart.
