Chapter 364: See Yuan Chonghuan again (2)

Although Tang Feng felt a little strange about Yuan Chonghuan's sudden arrival, he was still very happy to go out to greet him. When the two saw the gifts in front of the door, Tang Feng took Yuan Chonghuan into the living room and ordered the people to arrange food and drinks. At this time, Tang Feng could see that the other party had never used supper.

Yuan Chonghuan did not refuse or feel uneasy about Tang Feng's arrangements. The two were living a life on the battlefield, and these things were nothing to them. After a while of greeting and saying some parting, the servants brought the wine and food one after another. In fact, at this time, Tang Feng's family had already prepared the wine and meals, so there was no need to deliberately arrange it.

After two drinks of each other, Tang Feng raised his question: "Brother Element has just entered Beijing today, why do you have time to see me at this time? According to my guess, after meeting the Saint, you still have to go to the welcoming banquet set up by the adults in the court for you. I originally wanted to find you again after that."

"Those adults did have a banquet to invite me, but I refused because I was unwell." Yuan Chonghuan said disdainfully: "Yuan, I am a good man, so I don't want to join such treacherous people! It turns out that I didn't want to bother Yizhi, but went to see the Grandmaster. But when I went there, I found out that the Grandmaster was also among those people, so I came to your Tang Yizhi's mansion to fight Qiufeng." He said with a laugh.

After hearing his words, Tang Feng didn't feel a little smile, but soon felt that he was a little reckless in doing so, so he said with concern: "Brother Element, you have offended all the court in this way. I'm afraid that your career will be unfavorable."

"Hmph, these people only know how to attract the flames and hide the dirt. I am afraid that after seeing them, I will be able to tell the truth. Then I may offend them even more ruthlessly, so I made an excuse not to see them. In fact, before entering Beijing, my brothers and I were very dissatisfied with the decisions of these people. He actually did not allow them to follow me to go to Beijing on the grounds that their brothers were rude and unwilling, but arranged some Beijing troops to make up the numbers. It really disappoints everyone!" Speaking of this, he glanced at Tang Feng and said, "I also saw Yizhi and you were there this morning. Have you also seen the flaws?"

Tang Feng smiled bitterly and said, "You have noticed this, right, I feel unfair about it, but in the eyes of these adults, the court's dignity is much heavier than the honor of the soldiers, so I can't even say anything."

"Hmph, I just can't stand their actions!" Yuan Chonghuan felt a little calmer after drinking a glass of wine. Tang Feng could see that Yuan Chonghuan's words were all from his sincerity, which showed that he was not moved by these tricks of the eunuch party, so he simply decided to express his previous concerns: "Although Brother Element doesn't seem to have bought them, in fact, you have been used by these officials in the court when you come to the capital!"

"Where did you start?" Yuan Chonghuan asked in confusion. He obviously was not enough to have a grasp of politics.

So Tang Feng explained the points he had thought of before in detail, and then said: "From these three points, they also had their ulterior motive for asking the court to reward Brother Element, but you fell into their treacherous plan."

After hearing Tang Feng's analysis, Yuan Chonghuan was stunned for a while before he came to his senses: "I just thought that the court came to Beijing this time and finally reused me, but I didn't expect that they had such sinister intentions. If it weren't for your reminder, I would have been confused. These people really made them serve the country and the people and resist foreign aggression, but there was no way to do this."

Tang Feng smiled bitterly and said, "Although this is my guess, I think it's not far away. And since you have arrived in the capital and met the emperor, it is inevitable. This is their cleverness!"

"Yes, I, Yuan Chonghuan, is still too naive than those who are treacherous and slick!" As he spoke, Yuan Chonghuan drank a few more glasses of wine, obviously because he wanted to drink to relieve his sorrow. Before entering Beijing, he was unhappy because he had to bring the designated men of the court officials into the city gate, and then he was unwilling to be with the ugly behavior of the officials in the court and was unwilling to join them. Now, after hearing Tang Feng's words, he was even more worried. How could he not upset Yuan Chonghuan?

Tang Feng also drank three cups with him, and then said, "Brother Elementary, don't be so discouraged. Although you are using it for them this time, coming to Beijing will always have some benefits for the soldiers of Liaodong. For example, military supplies and military pay. You happened to take advantage of this opportunity to enter Beijing to declare to the court, and you also told the situation in Liaodong to everyone that there are always some people in the court who think about the country who will help Liaodong. By the way, I have been away from Liaodong for a year. What's the situation recently?"

After Tang Feng's consolation, Yuan Chonghuan's mood calmed down a little. Now when Tang Feng asked about the military affairs of Liaodong again, he said: "Since you left Liaodong, we have only focused on defense, and Jiannu has rarely attacked because of the internal differences. Even after a few incidents, he was just a small fight and did not dare to go deeper. But this made the soldiers look down on the enemy, and Ma Shilong underestimated the enemy and attacked a lot of people and horses, and finally caused General Sun to be implicated." Speaking of this, Yuan Chonghuan slapped the wine glass on the table, obviously very resentful to Ma Shilong who was in trouble.

Tang Feng had known about this from previous information, and did not want to arouse the other party's displeasure, so he changed the topic and said: "I heard that Lord Sun entrusted everything to Brother Element when he left Liaodong. I wonder if Jiannu had taken action because he knew Lord Sun's departure during this period?"

Yuan Chonghuan nodded and said, "You really guessed Yizhi. Half a month after the Grandmaster left, Jiannu's invasion of several fortresses in Liaodong became frequent. Once, nearly 10,000 people even rushed to the city of Jinzhou. Fortunately, General Sun had prepared before, so after suffering some losses, Jiannu left in shame.

"Although it took only three months, Jiannu had tried several important levels in Liaodong more than ten times, but they all returned without success. After late February, with the arrival of spring, those Jiannu who lived on nomads calmed down and I could have time to come to Beijing."

Although Yuan Chonghuan said it lightly and just mentioned it, Tang Feng could still think of the dangers in Liaodong this winter. However, for those who often fight against the Jin people in Liaodong, these things are no longer a big deal. "I wonder what's going on inside Jiannu now? Then can Huang Taiji and his brothers and uncles decide the outcome?"

"This has been around for a long time. Huang Taiji is more skilled after all. In addition, a few brothers later stood on his side, so he eventually inherited the Khan throne. However, there are still quite a few differences within Jiannu, which allows us to spend the year more peacefully. However, according to the information sent by the spies, the princes of Jiannu had begun to reach a consensus with Huang Taiji. If they want to establish a court where the kings discuss politics, they will be reunified soon. At that time, I, Liaodong, will encounter Jiannu's endless invasion again." At this point, Yuan Chonghuan sighed with concern.

After Tang Feng knew that it was Huang Taiji who had taken the position of leader, he guessed that things would become like this. After all, Huang Taiji is not an ordinary person, and he will definitely be able to reunite the entire Jin Kingdom. It seems that everything he did before can only temporarily hold back the Jin people's footsteps. It is still a bit embarrassing to really change the course of history.

Seeing that Tang Feng was silent, Yuan Chonghuan said again: "There is another thing you may not know. We and the Mongols opened a court in Datong. Although they did it very secretly because they did not receive permission from the court and the number of transactions was not large, they made us win the favor of many Mongol tribes."

When he heard about this, Tang Feng suddenly remembered the heroic girl in his heart. He had never seen her again after having an overnight relationship with her. Is Da Yu'er okay on the grassland now? Thinking about how he didn't think of her since he left the grassland, Tang Feng couldn't help feeling guilty. It was not until he found that Yuan Chonghuan looked at him with a strange look that Tang Feng came back to his senses and smiled in covertly, "Why are you staring at me like this?"

Yuan Chonghuan touched his beard and said, "I saw you being stunned and laughing so ambiguously that I looked at you. Why, have you remembered the affairs of my Jin Kingdom?"

Tang Feng did not answer his question, but just smiled. The two of them had just talked to each other until the recent update, and Yuan Chonghuan stood up and said goodbye. While the two were talking like this, Tang Feng wanted to tell the matter that he and Sun Chengzong decided several times. After all, this matter was related to Yuan Chonghuan, but he finally endured it. Because Tang Feng could not guarantee whether Yuan Chonghuan would show his flaws after knowing this, so his and Sun Chengzong's plans were completely ruined. So after hesitating for a while, Tang Feng still did not say it out, and just wanted to explain it to him later.

In the next two days, Yuan Chonghuan walked a lot of yamen in Beijing, and indeed benefited a lot of benefits for the soldiers of Liaodong. But at the same time, what Tang Feng guessed also happened. The adults began to advocate that Yuan Chonghuan was far superior to Sun Chengzong, and some even began to openly win over Yuan Chonghuan.

In this case, Tang Feng could only watch from the side, but couldn't get in, which made him feel very powerless. Five days after Yuan Chonghuan arrived in Beijing, a piece of information about Sun Chengzong's secret meeting with Yuan Chonghuan finally appeared on Tang Feng's desk...
