Steel Dynasty - Chapter 99

[Chapter 99 Strategy]

“Your Highness, this person has been peeping at Your Highness during the dinner, which is really disrespectful!”

It happened by chance. Only then did Wang Chengchou realize it, stood up and apologized: “Your Highness, the dog was really an unintentional mistake, just because The princess’s appearance is unparalleled in the world, so she was fascinated for a moment.”

Princess Pingyang laughed immediately after hearing this, “You are good at talking. The people here are all local wealthy people in Qingzhou, so who are you?”

“Caomin Wang Chengchou, this one is. It’s the dog Wang Shijie,” Wang Chengchou said respectfully.

The prestige of Princess Pingyang was also well known to him, and few people in the Chongqing Kingdom dared to provoke this princess.

Princess Pingyang looked strange and nodded lightly, “So you are the head of the royal family of the Qingzhou clan. That’s all. This palace is visiting Qingzhou. It would be unlucky to see blood. Ouyang Mu, please let me go.” Prince Wang, take your seat!”

As she spoke, Princess Pingyang looked at Wang Shijie.

“Yes! Your Highness Princess!” Ouyang Mu did not dare to disobey Princess Pingyang’s words.

Qin Chuanyun and his son, who were sitting opposite Wang Chengchou, suddenly looked disappointed. If the princess was angry, the Wang family would probably suffer a bitter fruit.

Xiao Ming was watching the whole show, but he was also a little disappointed. He also wanted to take the opportunity to further weaken the power of the Wang family.

However, Princess Pingyang seemed a little unnatural when she learned about the Wang family in Qingzhou, and now she was magnanimous towards the Wang family, which made him feel a little wary.

The political skills of Princess Pingyang are not inferior to those of any man.

Ignoring this episode, the dinner continues.

An hour later, the dinner was over. Xiao Ming said at this time: “Auntie, the resting place in the house has been prepared. Please go and have a rest.”

“That’s not necessary. I found a villa outside the city, so I won’t bother you. ” Princess Pingyang said suddenly.

“A mountain villa outside the city? I don’t know which villa it is. My nephew can also go and visit.”

“It’s a coincidence that my aunt was also passing by and took a fancy to it. After discussing it with the wealthy businessman, she planned to stay for a few days, just in the city. There is an island in the middle of the lake outside.” Princess Pingyang said as she walked out.

Xiao Ming nodded, “In that case, my nephew will give my aunt a ride.”

“No, it’s getting late, you’d better go back.” Princess Pingyang got on the carriage.

Xiao Ming kept a smile on his face, but he became suspicious in his heart. This Princess Pingyang didn’t play according to the routine.

Watching the carriage slowly leave, Pang Yukun, who had been following Xiao Ming, said, “Your Highness, Princess Pingyang must have something to ask for when she comes to Qingzhou this time, right?”

“Yes, not only does she want something, she also has a really big appetite. She wants all the technology of glass,” Xiao Ming sneered.

“Although Princess Pingyang was happy at the dinner, she was forced to laugh. It seems that her wish was not fulfilled.” Pang Yukun said: “And the princess does not live in the palace, but chooses another place, so we cannot monitor her every move.

“My aunt is a thoughtful person, and the changes in Qingzhou cannot escape her eyes. What I am worried about is that she will collude with the Wang family and smash a nail into the king’s fiefdom.”

“

Your Highness also sees it. “

?” Pang Yukun asked.

“Hmph, although the Wang family is a local wealthy family, their status is low after all, and she has always been extremely proud. When she was in Chang’an, she would punish those who were disrespectful, but this time she let Wang Shijie go. The king’s face is not enough to let her do this. “

“Your Excellency thinks so too. Your Highness, the situation in the Great Yu Kingdom is in chaos now, and at this time the barbarians have banned the sale of war horses. I am afraid that the barbarians are preparing to fish in troubled waters. When the emperor came to the throne, the barbarians invaded in large numbers. In order to stabilize the throne, the emperor ordered Chang’an City made an alliance with the barbarians, agreed to pay tribute to the barbarians every year, and ceded the land from the north of Cangzhou to Youzhou, so that the barbarians could retreat.”

After a pause, Pang Yukun continued: “This time the barbarians may be up to their old tricks. Repeatedly, in this way, the barbarians are getting stronger and stronger, while the Great Yu Kingdom is getting weaker and weaker. Moreover, the barbarians have always been ambitious for the Sixteen States of Yanyun. Now that Youzhou and other places have been lost, the remaining places will definitely not be let go. Once the Great Wall is lost, the barbarian cavalry will be in no man’s land.

“I understand this, but what does this have to do with Princess Pingyang?” Xiao Ming said.

Pang Yukun said: “This is naturally related. To the north of His Highness’s fiefdom is the Huyantuo tribe of the barbarians. If the Huyantuo tribe is driven away and Youzhou and other places are taken over, the gap of the barbarian invasion of the Central Plains can be blocked. That is how His Highness took advantage of the danger. By guarding and gaining the cities and population of Youzhou, you can further enhance your own strength. If you want to drive away the Huyantuo Tribe, Your Highness can no longer let hidden dangers hide in the fiefdom. “

“You mean to get rid of the Qingzhou wealthy people. Already?” Xiao Ming asked.

Pang Yukun bowed and said: “Yes, now that His Highness has shown his prowess, he has been targeted by Princess Pingyang. It can be seen that other princes will not take His Highness lightly, and the best way for them to restrain His Highness is to support the local wealthy families, because the wealthy families We have money, food, and troops, which is enough to threaten His Highness. “

But the power of the wealthy family is still very strong. If we take action at this time, we will definitely hurt the enemy by one thousand and ourselves by eight hundred.” Xiao Ming frowned. And give me at least three months for the training of the new army to catch up.”

Pang Yukun suddenly smiled and said: “Why did your Highness forget the Qin family again? If the Qin family learns that His Highness wants to get rid of the Wang family, then the Qin family will What’s your reaction?”

Xiao Ming frowned: “I understand what you mean, but there must be a reason to attack the Wang family. I’m afraid it’s inappropriate to do it without a name.”

“Your Highness, the opportunity is right in front of you,” Pang Yukun said softly. One sentence, “Wang Xuan!”

“What do you mean…” Xiao Ming’s expression changed.

Pang Yukun nodded, “Wang Xuan is a member of the Wang family. If he assassinates the princess at this time, wouldn’t His Highness have a reason to clean up the Wang family, and the golden armor beside Her Highness the Princess can also help His Highness, why not?”

Xiao Ming nodded slowly. Pang Yukun still felt a little bad in his stomach. “Once Wang Xuan assassinates the princess, she won’t be able to believe it or not. After all, Wang Xuan is Wang Chengchou’s nephew.”

“Without further delay, the princess will definitely summon the Wang family and his son tonight. Let Wang Xuan take action now. The princess will definitely believe that the Wang family is responsible for Ouyang Mu’s humiliation of Wang Shijie at the banquet.” Pang Yukun said.

There was no room for others to sleep peacefully next to the bed. The Qingzhou wealthy family had always made Xiao Ming feel uncomfortable. This was an opportunity.

Even if the Wang family cannot be eliminated, the Wang family’s vitality will definitely be severely damaged when the time comes.

Thinking of this, he immediately called Wang Xuan and told him Pang Yukun’s plan.

“Your Highness, leave this matter to me.” Wang Xuan said excitedly: “Wang Chengchou, this time I will let you be the best in the world. How do you resolve it?”
