Chapter 128: King Qi's Decision(1/2)

Xia Kingdom, Camp of Jiangyang County.

Because most of his soldiers and horses have been sent to various important places in the southwest to barely maintain the rule of the Great Xia court in the southwest counties, there are not many soldiers and horses in the Jiangyang County camp today.

The sound of drills in the past has not been heard from the military camp for a long time. However, because of the tense and critical situation now, there is an air of silence and solemnity permeating the entire camp.

The officers and soldiers coming and going all had solemn looks and fierce momentum. The entire Jiangyang County camp was like a dormant giant beast, hiding and sharpening its claws, waiting for the opportunity to show its edge again.

In the handsome tent, King Qi frowned, his face was deep, and he said:

"News is coming from Yazhou!"

After hearing what King Qi said, Feng Chu was visibly stunned for a moment, and then asked:

"Yazhou? Didn't His Highness never send troops to Yazhou?"

As mentioned before, although King Qi's men control the entire southwestern frontier army of Xia Kingdom.

But now the situation among the six counties in the southwest is extremely tense. The timing of the outbreak of the plague is too clever, it is at the time when the Xia Kingdom's rule in the southwest is most shaky.

Among the six counties, there was a plague raging, there were uprisings, and the people expelled the officials of Xia State to govern themselves, and one faction was causing trouble.

King Qi's army could only garrison in important cities and passes in various counties, barely maintaining the rule of the Xia Kingdom.

Yazhou was not far from Jiangyang County, and it was an insignificant city. Naturally, no troops were sent to garrison it, and the local people were left to fend for themselves.

At this time, Feng Chu heard the news from Yazhou, and this time he showed a confused look.

King Qi looked extremely heavy and said in a deep voice:

"Ji Huan of Yunguo Imperial Hospital was sent by Emperor Yun to bring doctors here. Now they are stationed in Yazhou. They use the rice, medicine and other materials they brought to continuously provide relief and treat the people. Now in Yazhou, less than two months have passed.

Most of the order has been restored..."

King Qi's words immediately made Feng Chu's face turn cold.

Now Feng Chu is in Jiangyang County, and with Emperor Xia's secret order, he has been able to mobilize the embroidery envoys of the six southwest counties. However, in addition to the raging plague in the six counties, there is also a rebellion in Anshun County, and the people of Xiangzhou County are expelled.

Xia officials. In the past few days, they have been tasked with assisting the imperial court in transporting supplies. They are extremely short of manpower and have not paid attention to what happened in Yazhou at all.

After hearing what King Qi said, Feng Chu was silent for a while, then a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and he said with murderous intent:

"As expected, Emperor Yun will definitely show kindness to the people of the six southwest counties after the plague in the country is alleviated, and he will plan to send troops out of Tiannan in the future... Please also ask His Highness to quickly mobilize his trusted troops.

, quickly cut the knot, we must not allow the doctors of Yun State to continue like this!"

The two of them had expected before that when Emperor Yun was free, he would definitely show kindness to the people of the six southwest counties, in order to use this to send troops out of Tiannan to attack the Xia Kingdom and win the hearts of the people.

But now, King Qi, forced by the limited supplies at hand, had no choice but to abandon those people and let them fend for themselves. On the contrary, the Yun Kingdom sent people to rescue them. Comparing the two sides, it goes without saying that the people of Southwest Xia Kingdom are sympathetic!

According to the people's will, this is a relatively unsolvable problem, except by using physical means...

At this time, Feng Chu showed his murderous intent and asked King Qi for trusted personnel. Naturally, he wanted to take advantage of the fact that the influence of the doctors from Yun State was not strong enough to physically remove these people.

But when King Qi heard what Feng Chu said, although his face was still gloomy, he still shook his head, picked up a waist card in his hand, and said in a deep voice:

"Ji Huan, the imperial physician of the Yun Kingdom, I owe him a favor!"

When Feng Chu heard this, he said without blinking:

"Then just keep him! If he stays with His Highness, he will be able to be used by His Highness! Ji Huan's medical skills are rare in the world. If he stays in the Yun Kingdom, he will completely destroy our relationship with the Honorable Minister of the Yun Kingdom.

What a vicious and underhand trick!"

When King Qi heard this, hesitation suddenly appeared in his eyes.

If it was for the sake of Xia's rule, King Qi would not hesitate to immediately adopt Feng Chu's advice and send people to intercept and kill him.

But now the Yun State took the initiative to send someone to contact him and presented him with the token that King Qi personally gave to Ji Su, naturally asking him not to have any other bad intentions.

King Qi's temperament was honed in the military as an adult, and he was used to straightforward methods. He never liked this secretive approach. It was obviously difficult for him to make such a decision that went against his nature.

When Feng Chu saw this, his face became anxious and he gritted his teeth and said:

"Your Highness, this is not a battlefield duel! There is no right or wrong in the methods between the two countries!"

One sentence immediately made King Qi's eyes stern.

He clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said sternly:

"Bring all the king's personal guards here and disguise themselves as invading thieves from Anshun County!"

Yazhou is not actually bordering Anshun County, but even if this thing is done, both sides will know it. It is just an excuse to fool the people below.

"Remember, Ji Huan must not be harmed in any way... In addition to the favor that I owe him, the prescriptions for diagnosing and treating the plague in his hand are also urgently needed by us!" King Qi couldn't help but give an instruction.

Feng Chu looked at King Qi who nodded and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, okay, after all, there has been some growth, and it is finally not so difficult to lead...

"yes!"

Feng Chu responded with his hands raised, and immediately went down to prepare for the deployment of manpower to intercept and kill Yun Guo's team.

And at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded outside the handsome tent.

"Commander, Mr. Zhong, Deputy Director of Southwest Operations, has an urgent document for you!"

"Come in!" King Qi shouted immediately.

Feng Chu, who was just getting ready to go down, heard this, paused, and said in a deep voice:

"It should be an official document reporting that the princess's plan in Youyun country was exposed and no supplies were shipped back."

Upon hearing this, King Qi nodded silently and said with relief:

"The hundreds of thousands of stones raised by the imperial sister for me have alleviated an urgent need!"

Hearing this, Feng Chu also nodded and praised:

"It's just a simple chess move, but the princess can actually use it to such an extent. I am truly astonished!"

When King Qi heard this, he couldn't help but smile. He was like a parent whose child was praised by others, and said with pride:

"The imperial sister said in her letter that she did not expect that this move of leisure chess would cause quite a stir in the Yun Kingdom. If it weren't for the many affairs in the southwest and Jinling City that affected her energy, she might not be able to use some means.

The government of Yun State is in chaos, and its vitality is severely damaged!"

If you think about it carefully, this is really not a boast.

In order to hinder Hai Rui, Liu Yu also made a plan, so that Hai Rui faced off against officials from the border army in Jianchang Mansion, causing a huge quarrel.

It involves the three families of Ma, Qu, and Tao, as well as officials from the border army, as well as Yun Guo's imperial examination scholars. If they are not really unable to take action, they may make some small moves, which may seriously damage Yun Guo's vitality, but the government will be in chaos.

It's for sure!

When Feng Chu heard this, he flattered him very cooperatively and said:

"The princess's skills are really amazing. With the princess's help, Your Highness will be able to win the big position!"

When King Qi heard this, he waved his hands with a smile.

At this time, the confidant who came to report had been kneeling on the ground and waiting for a long time, but he didn't say anything for a long time. Watching Qi Wang and Feng Chu singing in harmony, there was a complicated expression on their faces.

King Qi only realized it at this time and said immediately:

"What are you reporting?"

The confidant quickly lowered his head and said in a deep voice:

"Your Highness, Mr. Zhong, the southwest transshipment envoy, has arrived at the dock and is unloading the supplies on the ship. There is also a secret message sent, please take a look at it in person!"

"Materials?" King Qi was stunned and subconsciously looked towards Feng Chu.

When Feng Chu heard this, he also showed doubts.

The two of them had long received the report from the Embroidered Clothes Envoy, and knew that Liu Yu of the Yun Kingdom and Jintang Peak had been captured. Logically speaking, they would not have to think about the supplies sent by the Yun Kingdom in the future.

The two of them had already been prepared, but when they heard the news that Zhong Zizuo continued to send back supplies, they couldn't help but look confused.

"Bring the secret message quickly!" King Qi reacted and said suddenly.

Seeing this, the confidants quickly handed over the secret letter.

King Qi opened it and scanned the letter. His eyes suddenly widened, and a shocked, heavy, and complicated look suddenly appeared on his face.

When Feng Chu saw this, his eyelids suddenly jumped and he couldn't help but ask:

"Your Highness, this is..."

King Qi shook his head, handed over the secret message in his hand, and said in a deep voice:

"No need to send people to intercept and kill, it's useless!"

When Feng Chu heard this, he immediately stepped forward, took the letter and scanned it, his brows suddenly furrowed.

In the secret letter, it was naturally Zhong Zizuo who reported that Yun Guo had taken the initiative to provide supplies.

A large amount of supplies were shipped from the Yun Kingdom, and this matter obviously could not be concealed.

Although it was said that King Qi bought it with real money and silver at a price that was 50% higher, it was obvious that ordinary people would not know the inside story of these things.

The common folk propaganda methods used by Emperor Yun's subordinates could easily tell the people of the southwest about this matter from beginning to end.

Judging from the simple moral values ​​of the people, it was natural for them to become the Yun Kingdom, helping them when they were most critical, providing them with supplies, food and grass, and treating the people.
