Chapter 451 Chaos
After Xie Bai, who was in charge of this matter, came in, Xie Zhan explained some matters to him in detail.
Xie Bai nodded frequently.
Finally, Xie Bai took the order and left.
Xie Zhan thought about it, then got up and went to the backyard.
He was in a bad mood and wanted to go see his son.
His son is now ten months old. Perhaps because he was born prematurely, he is weaker than other children. He cannot call people or walk yet, but he can recognize people.
When the child saw him, he reached out to him from his nurse's arms.
Xie Zhan touched the child's head and played with him for a while.
At this time, Zhao Yutan received the news and was hurried home.
As the wife of the Xie clan leader, Zhao Yutan gave birth to Xie Zhan, the clan leader's only son. Over the past six months, she has gradually taken over the clan's affairs.
Xie Zhan said nothing, giving her the respect she deserved as the head of the family. Seeing this, the elders and clan members stopped harassing her or targeting her.
After playing with his son for a while, Xie Zhan calmed down completely and his thoughts became clearer.
When Zhao Yutan returned, he was about to go back to the study to continue working.
The couple met at the door.
Zhao Yutan paused, then hesitated, "I heard you were in a bad mood?"
Xie Zhan nodded slightly, "I'm much better now. I'm going to the study."
"Oh." Her son opened his arms towards her, and Zhao Yutan went to hug her son with a bit of disappointment.
Xie Zhan, who was about to leave, paused and said to her, "I'm going back to the backyard to rest tonight."
"good."
After Xie Zhan returned to the study, his mind quickly calmed down.
According to the original plan, there was another place they could exploit for wealth. He planned to let Gu Huaisheng, Qiao Xi and others do the preliminary preparations. On his side, he was preparing to deal with the Qin and Lu families.
Now that the Lu father and daughter have interfered, everything is in chaos and he has to adjust many of his subsequent plans.
Xie Zhan frowned as he adjusted himself. According to his plan, if everything went well, the South would have the capital to survive even in the coming chaos.
But Lu Songli always manages to give him a blow at the critical moment.
Being an opponent of someone as smart as Lu Songli, one really can't let their guard down. He had been very careful, but she still noticed.
Since we can't defeat her alone, let's gang up on her!
Xie Zhan's eyes were deep. He first drew a line across his original plan, rejecting it. Some lines had to be buried deep enough so that when they were unearthed, the damage would be great enough.
Finally, he made a heavy tick on a plan.
Pingzhou also received news from Chang'an.
Lu Desheng took the letter and clicked his tongue, "Tsk tsk, this time Xie Zhan will be skinned alive if he doesn't die!"
Lu Songli gave a thumbs up, "Dad, you are awesome."
"Xie Zhan has suffered such a great loss, he will definitely seek revenge. Lord Lu, Madam Qin Liu, we must take precautions early." Xue Xu reminded.
Xue Xu had dealt with Xie Zhan many times, so he naturally knew what kind of person he was.
"Yes, Mr. Xue is right to remind you."
Lu Songli did not regret taking action against Xie Zhan, nor was he afraid of his revenge.
Even though they were not ready, the Qin family was still an exile.
But after so many things, Lu Songli knew very well that Song Mo would not easily let the Qin family be vindicated. Not only her, but also the Qin brothers understood this.
This road is too difficult, so why not just give up on it? They found another way.
She always thought that she would do it later, even later, until Pingzhou was more fully developed.
She now knew that she was never completely prepared.
She had always been a sleazy person, but she still had to act when it was time. After all, when Xie Zhan had grown stronger, he would also act against them. Then it would be Xie Zhan's turn to calmly set a trap for them.
They had set up such a scheme to deal with Xie Zhan, but Pingzhou did not directly benefit from it, which seemed to be a thankless task for them. However, from another perspective, Xie Zhan was the enemy, and his loss was equivalent to Pingzhou's profit.
After all, if they continue like this, Xie Zhan might be able to overtake them.
This move cut off the firewood from the source and directly overturned the friendship between the two people.
This would prevent the two sides from joining forces to grow bigger and stronger, allowing Xie Zhan to successfully seize the capital for rebellion.
Now that there is a grudge between the two, they will definitely be wary of each other and will no longer be able to work together as closely as before.
Just let Xie Zhan make the Southland underdeveloped.
Lu Songli said, "In Pingzhou, the rice has already started to fill with grain. In just over a month, it will be ready for harvest."
Everyone present was smart, and with just one sentence, everyone understood what she meant.
They also needed to guard against the Xianbei, because the Xianbei had always come south to plunder around the autumn harvest.
Lu Desheng's eyes widened. "But didn't we just sign a three-year peace agreement with them last year?"
Although my daughter had warned me before that the other party might not strictly abide by this agreement, but only one year had passed since the three-year peace agreement, and the Xianbei were already planning to break it? How shameless!
"The Xianbei royal court cannot be trusted," Lu Songli pointed out calmly. If she were Xie Zhan, she would definitely take advantage of this. What could better relieve his hatred than destroying their hard work?
"Shameless!" Lu Desheng cursed. After all, they were such a big nomadic people!
"Dad, please gather the leaders of all the armies in the near future. We need to quickly build battlefield fortifications."
Field fortifications and defensive fortifications all require the cooperation of professionals.
Fortunately, the cement had already been made. Of course, the quality was not as good as the fine cement of later generations, but it was much better than when it was first made. This time, it could be used for construction.
"Okay!" Lu Desheng tensed up instantly. As a civil official, he had never been so close to war in his life, and he was a little scared.
Xue Xu was very excited because he suddenly realized that this was a very good opportunity to split Pingzhou!
He glanced at Madam Qin Liu who was calm and composed at the top. Could it be what he thought?
He had always vaguely felt that she was planning something. Was the time right now?
Just then, there was a burst of noisy noise outside, and the three of them stopped talking.
Xue Xu stood up and said, "I think I heard Old Ji's voice. I'll go out and take a look."
Soon, the door to their hall was opened.
Ji Wuyin came in first and greeted the Lu family father and daughter. "Greetings to Mr. Lu and Mrs. Qin Liu."
Then he turned around and called to the servants, "Come, move your things in and put them here."
