Before Wang Jin took his turn, he heard from Little Li that there was news about Yan territory.
At that time, there were many people around and no one asked too many questions.
Now we are in the East Factory and we are all one of us.
Of course you have to understand it.
In fact, after the establishment of the East Factory, Wang Jin sent some of his men to Yan to collect information.
After all, the Prince of Yan is there. He has great power and is the only person who can threaten your majesty's imperial power. We must pay more attention to him and understand his every move.
If anything happens, I can report to His Majesty and take timely measures to deal with it.
Now that he had the news, Wang Jin did not dare to be careless and thought it was a big deal.
"My Lord," Little Lizi said immediately upon hearing the question, "According to the information we've received, the King of Yan has completely taken control of all forces in Yan, even the Sun family has chosen to obey his orders. After this, he began recruiting soldiers and expanding his power."
"Although it is quite normal for a vassal king to keep private soldiers within his fiefdom, I dare not be careless about this matter and have come here specifically to report this."
"When the Prince of Yan was in the capital, he repeatedly expressed his dissatisfaction with Your Majesty privately, and now he has taken control of Yan..."
Although Leo is not as good at thinking as Wang Jin.
But he was also very clear that if a vassal king had enough power, he would inevitably develop ambitions.
In addition, the people of Yan are tough and brave, and like the grassland tribes in the northern border, they can all fight on horseback.
As long as the Prince of Yan is willing, a powerful army can be assembled in a very short period of time. This is not a good thing for the court and requires special attention.
Above, Wang Jin's eyes flashed with a gleam after hearing these words.
Since returning to his fiefdom, the King of Yan has taken action almost immediately.
He continued to eliminate the major forces in Yan and use them for his own purposes.
He already knew this.
The other party is the grandson of the previous head of the Sun family and can inherit the influence of the Sun family. More importantly, he has royal blood. Naturally, those major forces have no ability to resist.
It can be said that he can do things that the officials of the court and even the current emperor cannot do.
Originally, if the Prince of Yan was loyal and wanted to devote himself to the country, there would be nothing to worry about.
But if you just want to expand your own power, that’s different.
It will pose a threat to Your Majesty.
"but..."
At this time, Little Li spoke again, continuing, "One thing is very strange. When the Prince of Yan did these things, he didn't hide them or try to deceive anyone. He didn't seem to worry about being discovered. I heard that because of this, officials in Yan have already reported it to the court. I can't understand why. Isn't the Prince of Yan afraid of His Majesty's punishment?"
This made Wang Jin stunned.
Logically speaking, if a vassal king wants to rebel, he should be as secretive as possible when doing such a thing.
Now, not only did the spies from the East Factory get the news, but even the officials in Yan area reported it to the court, which seemed a bit ostentatious.
Just as Leonardo DiCaprio said, isn't the King of Yan afraid that he will anger His Majesty and cause His Majesty to punish him?
So after hearing the news, Wang Jin didn't say anything and was a little confused.
He had been trying to find a way to keep a close eye on King Yan.
I am afraid that this person may have ulterior motives and pose a threat to Your Majesty.
Who would have thought that after watching for so long, there would be no news, and even if there was news, it didn't seem to be a secret.
Therefore, Wang Jin couldn't figure out what the other party was planning. Or was it just for show to outsiders, and in fact, in a secret place, was the King of Yan making other moves?
But this shouldn't be the case. For the imperial court, suppressing the forces in Yan and then recruiting soldiers is already a huge undertaking.
No matter what, if His Majesty knew about this, it would definitely cause His Majesty's anger.
And now, even if the King of Yan has turned Yan into an iron bucket.
That would never be a match for the imperial court.
Plus there is the Marquis of Shenwu in the north.
If a war breaks out, the King of Yan will be attacked from both sides and will definitely be destroyed. Therefore, this kind of thing is too sensitive.
Of course, there is another possibility.
That is the King of Yan. He had no intention of rebelling from the beginning to the end. He suppressed those forces in Yan only to make it easier for the court to govern. That's why he dared to act so unscrupulously.
Although this makes sense, if the imperial court is unaware of this, it will still backfire.
So, there is only one reason.
That is, Your Majesty actually knows about this matter.
Thinking of this, Wang Jin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he seemed to understand everything.
That’s right, Your Majesty actually knows what the Prince of Yan did in Yan, and it is very likely that the Prince of Yan did these things with Your Majesty’s tacit approval, otherwise there is no way to explain it.
As for why other people don’t know, the reason is very simple, that is, the various forces in Yan are still dissatisfied with the imperial court.
If the Prince of Yan did this in the name of the court, the effect would definitely not be good, and he might even encounter resistance.
Therefore, this matter must be carried out in secret and must not be known to others.
"I see, that's how it is!"
At this moment, Wang Jin's face was full of smiles, and he felt that he had guessed all the reasons behind this matter.
He immediately looked at Little Li and the others and said, "Alright, regarding the Yan territory, my East Factory no longer needs to investigate any more. Let's withdraw some of the spies and rush to Zhenbei Pass to gather information about the grassland tribes."
