Chapter 498: That Night, Part 2(1/2)

Xiahou Zhuo poured a cup of tea for Xi Wei.

"Since you, Mr. Xi, have fallen in love with the third prince, of course I will embrace him as the emperor!"

"Just...that Concubine Li,"

Xi Wei waved his hand: "Planting flowers is for appreciation."

"Farming is for harvest."

"Just like general, you lead troops to fight and expand your territory!"

"No one will do one thing without purpose, so does Concubine Li!"

"The third prince ascended the throne and became emperor, and she was the empress dowager of Ningguo... It is within easy reach of things, do you think she would refuse like Li Chenan?"

Xiahou Zhuo didn't know, but he could not refuse when he put himself in his shoes.

That authority is even more attractive than the most beautiful flower in the world.

It is roughly the only fool Li Chenan who chooses to take back the eldest son of the emperor.

"But if the eldest son of the emperor does not die, I am afraid that even if the third prince ascends the throne and becomes emperor, there will be many troubles in the future."

Xi Wei nodded, "So after this battle, General Xiahou will lead his troops into Shu!"

"Enter Shu?"

"Yes, the eldest son of the emperor is in Shuzhou!"

"If General Xiahou captured or beheaded the eldest son of the emperor, how would the third prince and Concubine Li thank you?"

"This is inevitable!"

"General Xiahou became General Ningguo, holding the military power of the whole country... At that time, you would have a chance to avenge Queen Lu!"

Xiahou Zhuo's eyes lit up: "Does Mr. Xi know where the eldest son is hiding?"

Xi Wei shook his head, "Fan Taohua should know."

"But Fan Taohua is dead."

"Precisely because she is dead, she will definitely place the soldiers from Shuzhou in the place where the eldest son of the emperor is!"

"I even guessed that she had been working in Shuzhou for so many years to protect the eldest son!"

"Her soldiers are trained for the eldest son of the emperor!"

"Then the land of Shuzhou, especially in a remote place, the more soldiers hidden, the closer it is to the eldest son of the emperor!"

"General Xiahou should send a scout to Shuzhou now to find out what happened first!"

Xiahou Zhuo pondered for a moment, but did not refuse Xi Wei's suggestion, but he pulled the topic back:

"Tomorrow, our army will arrive at Wusanyuan. Our army is not facing the thousand people of Li Chenan, but also the 50,000 soldiers of Jiangnan Road..."

"The commander of these 50,000 soldiers in the palace is Xie Jing, who was once under the command of General Wu Mian!"

"Wu Mian led the Red Flame Army during the Kyoto Incident... Mr. Xi, you seem to have a great influence on the Red Flame Army... Wu Mian, is it someone who obeys you?"

Xi Wei did not deny it.

He nodded.

Xiahou Zhuo narrowed his eyes slightly: "Wu Mian is the slave of Lu Zhanxiao who got on the car... You are old, but you are the enemy of the Hou's mansion!"

"Wu Mian is loyal to Lu Zhanxiao. If he said he betrayed Lu Zhanxiao... I really can't believe it!"

Xi Wei laughed.

"On the third day of the 10th month of the third year of Zhaohua, where were you at that time?"

"I'm in Jiuyin City!"

"If I say that I was killed when I got into the marquis's mansion, it was not my fault, would you believe it?"

Xiahou Zhuo was stunned because that matter was too big!

Even though he was in the border Jiuyin City, he heard about the details of that incident.

It is said that it was done by Xi Wei!

But he denied this statement at this moment...

Xi Wei of course saw the confusion on Xiahou Zhuo's face, "Tell me, what are the benefits for me to see if I design to destroy the whole house of the waiting mansion?"

Xiahou Zhuo was stunned again, "Isn't it just to weaken Ningguo's military power?"

"Isn't it just to pave the way for you to overthrow Ning Guo?"

Xi Wei shook her head and smiled:

"You were wrong!"

"The Marquis' Mansion on the Carriage was destroyed, which led to the rise of the Marquis' Mansion on the Ding Kingdom!"

"The Red Flame Army is still there, and there is another powerful Shenwu Army... Where did Ningguo's military power weaken?"

"Besides, the Yong Kingdom has been destroyed for so many years. I did have the intention of avenging Yong Kingdom at the beginning, but after so many years, my thoughts have gradually faded."

Xiahou Zhuo choked and was speechless, but he was still unbelievable.

"What happened to get on the bus and waiter's house?"

Xi Wei suddenly smiled and did not answer Xiahou Zhuo's question.

"If the past is done, let him pass. When a person lives, the most important thing is to face the future."

He stood up, "Xie Jing, trustworthy!"

"Your 30,000 border troops can be joined with Xie Jing's 50,000 government troops."

"Eighty thousand army!"

"Xie Jing will follow your orders, and no matter what arrangement Li Chenan makes, it will be useless."

"Many times, the so-called strategy is not worth mentioning in the face of strong strength!"

"Xie Jing will come to see you. You will discuss tomorrow's battle, but you must remember that you must never bring troops to go south!"

When Xiahou Zhuo heard this, he asked, "Why can't you go south with 80,000 troops?"

"Because you will provoke the Shenwu Army back!"

"In the city of Yujing, Kyoto, there is a warm rain!"

"The walls of Yujing City are very thick!"

"The combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Five Cities of the Military Command in Yujing City... is no worse than your 30,000 border troops!"

Xiahou Zhuo also stood up, "Then do you mean..."

"After this battle, go to Shuzhou!"

"What if I fail to kill Li Chenan?"

"Go to Shuzhou too!"

"Just for that eldest son?"

"It's not just for the eldest son of the emperor, but also for a long-term plan!"

"The land of Shuzhou is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you take Shuzhou, you can advance, attack, retreat or defend!"

"I'm going to say this, as for how you choose...you can do it!"

"Goodbye!"

"Where is Mr. Xi going?"

"Go to meet an old friend."

Xi Wei walked out of the handsome tent and walked into the starry night.

It was on a temporary lookout outside this handsome tent.

Thirty crossbowmen aimed at Xi Wei's back.

Xiahou Zhuo stood in front of the door of the coach's tent, until Xi Wei completely disappeared into the night, he did not order the arrow to be fired.

Because he could not tell the truth about Xi Wei's words.

But there is one thing that is indeed true-

The land of Shuzhou is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you take Shuzhou... you can never be afraid of how Ningguo changes!

So tomorrow in the Battle of Wufanyuan, will Xie Jing really come to meet him as Xi Wei said?

He didn't wait long before he waited for the guard's return.

Xie Jing, it's really here!

This old guy Xi Wei does have something to do!

That night, the lights in Xiahou Zhuo Shuai's tent were on until dawn.
