Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 981 Once a boy

It is the biggest taboo for border troops to collude with each other. Since Emperor Wu, the Ye family and the Chong family have jointly defended the frontier of Dajin. It has been more than 40 years. In these 40 years, the two families have not exchanged a single letter. .

   At least not on the surface.

In addition, the generals in the capital sometimes intermarry each other. As the top two generals in the Jin Dynasty, they have never been involved in marriage in the past 40 years, even when Ye Laoguo, who was revered by everyone in the Jin Dynasty, was alive. The Chong family didn't visit the old man very much either.

   All generations have been very cautious in character.

Among them, the contemporary head of the family, Chong Xuantong, was an official in Dajin. When Li Xin was still a school captain, he went to Yunzhou City to deliver things. Chong Xuantong was polite to him and refused to accept Li Xin's favor. Human affection, and gave him the sword he had when he was young.

   At this time, as long as he has the slightest selfishness, it is impossible to speak for the Ye family in front of the emperor. It is the situation in the north that makes the old general very worried, so he can recommend the Ye family to the emperor so frankly in front of the emperor.

   Emperor Yuan Zhao frowned deeply.

In fact, he was also very embarrassed. At this time, even a ten-year-old child could understand. Of course, it is better for the Ye family to guard the customs in the north, but Li Xin went to Ningling, and he and Ye Lin and Ye Mao uncle Everyone has met each other. If Li Xin and the Ye family really reached an "agreement", then letting the Ye family take over the army would be tantamount to handing the Zhenbei Army into Li Xin's hands!

   What's even more terrifying is that if the Ye family deliberately let the Yuwen Department enter the customs, the southwest would be chaotic again, under the attack of the north and the south, the kingdom of the Jin Dynasty may come to an end!

   It was precisely because of this risk that the emperor took the risk of completely offending the Ye family, leaving both the Ye family's uncle and nephew, and instead sent a clan to take over Jimenguan.

   But now Chong Xuantong is kneeling in front of him, this is a serious veteran of the three dynasties, or a general who has been in charge of the army for three consecutive dynasties, even the emperor is not good to directly refute his face.

Thinking of this, the emperor stretched out his hand to lift the old general from the ground and let him sit on a chair, and then the young emperor of Jin slowly said: "Of course I understand what the old general said, but the situation in the southwest is just now. It's also very bad, the old general can't just focus on the northern border, but can't see the southwest."

  Chong Xuantong let out a long sigh.

It has been several years since the southwest and the imperial court were officially opposed. For such a long time, even if Chong Xuantong was in Yunzhou, he didn’t know the specific details, but he naturally knew the general situation. The old man was already shaking a little. White eyebrows, shaking his head slightly.

   "In the early years, the old minister had several contacts with Mr. Li. At that time, he was a young man with high spirits. I didn't expect that the old minister had not been in the capital for more than ten years, and Mrs. Li had come to this point."

He looked up at the Son of Heaven and said, "Your Majesty, even if there is a relationship between the Ye family and Mrs. Li, they are not to the point of betraying the imperial court. Back then, when Mr. Ye conquered the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he already had the power to establish a country, but not yet. It's impossible for the Ye family to betray the court for a Li Changan!"

   "But old man Ye has already gone."

Emperor Yuanzhao said silently: "If the old prince was still there, I would naturally trust the Ye family with a hundred people, but the old prince has gone, and even Ye Ming has gone, I can't take the Jiangshan Sheji, which is left by our ancestors, It is entirely on the loyalty of the Ye family."

   said, the emperor sighed at Chong Xuantong: "I hope the old general can understand me."

"Can…"

Chong Xuantong frowned and said: "But the situation in the northern border is urgent, and the old minister is worried that the general sent by His Majesty will not be able to deal with the wolf-like Yuwen tribe. If His Majesty is not willing to send Chen Guogong or Ninglinghou to Jizhou Go, the old minister urges Your Majesty to write a letter to the general you sent to Jizhou, and once the fight begins, let him try his best to... listen to the opinions of the general of the Zhenbei Army."

   "It's nature."

  The emperor said: "I will let Xiao Zheng draft it, and I will also issue an edict from the Xianbei Ministry, warning Yuwenzhao not to do anything wrong in the northern Xinjiang."

   Having said this, the emperor paused, and then said helplessly to Chong Xuantong: "Old General, the situation in the north can only be like this. When all the hidden dangers in the southwest are eliminated, the imperial court can free up its hands and deal with the north."

  Chong Xuantong smiled bitterly: "I dare to ask Your Majesty, how should the situation in the southwest be resolved?"

   "Southwest can only be dragged."

Emperor Yuan Zhao said slowly: "The old general may or may not know that the reason why Southwest can confront the imperial court in a corner is because they have a weapon called Tianlei. The formation is a first-class fetish, and there must be a way to crack this thing in order to solve the hidden dangers in the southwest."

   "I have already asked the Ministry of Industry to imitate these Tianlei."

Emperor Yuanzhao opened his mouth and said: "When the imperial court's thunderbolt is made, the hidden dangers in the southwest will no longer be hidden dangers, and Yuwenzhao in the northern Xinjiang will not be a problem. long!"

Although Chong Xuantong had heard of Tianlei's name, he had never seen the real thing after all, and he didn't say much, just sighed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, if the general of the Zhenbei Army cannot be replaced by the Ye family. , The old minister urges Your Majesty to allocate three or four Zhechong manpower from the Gyeonggi Imperial Army, and go north to station near Yunzhou and Jizhou, ready to support the two passes at any time!"

  The Gyeonggi Imperial Army has a total of 16 Zhechong houses. Each Zhechong house is different in size, with a population ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 to 30,000 people. If four Zhechong houses can be sent north, there will be about 60,000 people.

  This opinion, the emperor refused to open his mouth, he nodded and said: "Then according to the old general, who should be sent to take these 60,000 people out of Beijing to the north?"

   Hearing the words of the Son of Heaven, a person immediately appeared in Chong Xuantong's mind, the high-spirited Marquis of Jing'an.

   If he was in the capital and brought a few Zhechongfu to the north to support him, then the capital would certainly be able to sit back and relax, and the Xianbei department might suffer a big loss from him!

   But unfortunately, Li Xin was not in the capital.

  Thinking of this, the old general sighed and said to the emperor: "The old minister has not been in the capital for a long time, and he doesn't know anything about the people in the capital. Your Majesty will decide."

   "Then I will discuss with a few prime ministers later."

  Chong Xuantong got up, bowed to the emperor, and then left Weiyang Palace respectfully.

   Xiao Zheng personally sent him to Yonganmen.

   When walking in the imperial city, the old general sighed. He remembered the young man who brought many altars to make wine and came to Yunzhou City to deliver a letter to him during the Chengde years.

   At that time, the young man was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and he would use Zhu Rongjiu as a favor for His Royal Highness King Wei to the Zhong family.

Later, the young man made his fortune in the Taikang Dynasty and became the youngest general in the history of the Jin Dynasty. In the eighth year of Taikang, the general was appointed as the general of Zhenbei and was ordered to march north. When he reached Jimen Pass, he returned the Yunzhou City wrote a letter.

   In the letter, it was written in high spirits, as long as the farmers are willing to cooperate, they will completely destroy the disabled Yu Wenbu within three years!

  Thinking of this, the old general shook his head and sighed faintly.

  What a young man.

  Why did you go to the southwest to be a rebel?
