Unparalleled Concubine

  Chapter 167

   After a brief communication on the road, the two set off and returned to the Wei Wangfu.

  The quiet room of Prince Wei's Mansion was built in a shady location. A few pieces of ice were placed in the room, and the whole room was cool. After the two of them sat down, a few maids brought some food.

   To Li Xin's surprise, one of them was the ice cream that Li Xin made.

   His Highness King Wei squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "This is what Xiao Jiu gave me the other day. Brother Xin, you're not being kind. Now, if you have anything, send it to Xiao Jiu, and don't miss me, Prince Wei's mansion."

  Li Xin shook his head: "This thing is a sweet treat. I thought it was only my daughter's family who liked it, so I didn't send it to the Wei Palace."

   The two of them made a joke and started to talk about business. Li Xin poured a cup of tea for King Wei and said slowly, "How much toasting wine has your Highness made?"

   "There are about fifty or sixty altars, and now there is only one workshop, and it is estimated that it will take four or five days to collect a hundred altars."

   Li Xin took a deep breath: "That's fine, there are still a few days to prepare."

After pondering for a while, Colonel Li asked, "His Royal Highness, the two generals in the north, I do know the Ye family in Chen Guogong's mansion. What is the situation of the other kind family? Why haven't I heard of a kind family in the capital? Is your son here?"

After all, it was too short for Li Xin to enter the capital, and he was not very familiar with many things in this country. The confrontation between the Pingnanhou Mansion and the imperial court, which he was most familiar with, was only a small part of this intricate court. It is even more complicated to imagine.

  If the imperial court was safe and there was only one confidant in southern Xinjiang, Li Shen would have surrendered his military power and returned to the capital to confess his guilt.

After the seventh prince took a sip of tea, he replied: "There were five kingdoms in the Central Plains back then. The emperor sent troops to clean up the world. Li Zhijie went to the south, Ye Sheng went to the north, and the Zhong family was ordered to attack the two small countries of Zhongshan and Yan, but these two A country surrendered without a fight, so the family's military exploits are not as dazzling as the other two."

   Hearing this, Li Xin was a little dumbfounded.

   "When... when Emperor Wu swept the world, did three... send troops together?"

When the various nations were fighting, the country that ruled the world was often defeated one by one. Even the Great Qin of that year was beaten one by one. Listening to the tone of the seventh prince, when Emperor Wu swept the world, it seemed like... fight together?

His Royal Highness King Wei sighed: "At the beginning, the emperor was also helpless. He first sent troops to Nanshu, and Beizhou came from the north. In desperation, the emperor could only let Ye Sheng lead the imperial forbidden army to fight. Fortunately, Ye Guogong was so powerful that he was abrupt. He took the forbidden army all the way to the capital of Beizhou."

   Oh, it's a passive three-sided battle, so it's not surprising...

   "It took eight years for the Great Jin to attack Nanshu, and it took more than six years to attack the Northern Zhou. The entire Great Jin was struggling to support it."

   Having said this, the Seventh Prince's expression became solemn.

"In the beginning, the emperor was betting on the national fortune of the entire Great Jin Dynasty. Later, the money and food in the country were almost exhausted, and the people's rebellion was born! Fortunately, the emperor finally won the bet, and I will not be able to support the Great Jin. When we went down to prepare for the strike, Duke Ye took the lead in breaking the capital of Beizhou, then Li Zhijie broke down Jincheng, the two small states of Yan and Zhongshan, heard that Kaicheng surrendered, and the world was unified!"

   Li Xin was thrilled.

The Emperor Wu at the time of Da Jin was indeed a ruthless man. In this case, if Li Xin was asked to do it, as long as he couldn't defeat him in two or three years, he would most likely stop fighting first, and then he would take it slowly in the future. After all, if he hadn't been defeated at the beginning , Dajin has not been supplemented by the resources of the other two countries, and it is estimated that it will collapse immediately.

   This is the serious gambling of the country, and it is the kind that can be seen immediately.

  The Seventh Prince continued: "After the Northern Zhou Dynasty destroyed the country, Duke Ye returned to Beijing to hand over the military power. However, there could not be no troops stationed in the North, so the emperor sent two people to take over the North and restrain each other."

   Li Xin asked, "Is that the two generals now?"

   The seventh prince shook his head and said, "General Ye Ming was only twenty years old at that time, how could he take on such an important task?"

   "At that time, it was a brother of Ye Guogong, and the current Zhongxuantong and Zhongshuai were in charge of soldiers in the north."

   "About ten years ago, Ye Guogong left the court, and General Ye Ming set off from the capital to take over the Zhenbei Army in Beidi."

  The seventh prince chuckled: "A few days ago, the Ye Mao whom Brother Xin knew was General Ye Ming's son."

  Li Xin lowered his head and took a sip of tea, slowly digesting this huge amount of information.

It seems that the imperial court's fear of Chen Guogong Ye Sheng has reached the extreme, not only let Ye Sheng return to Beijing, but also let the Zhong family garrison in the north to restrain the Zhenbei army, and after the old prince Ye Sheng completely withdraws from the court, he Only then did his son Ye Ming have the opportunity to leave Beijing to "inherit the family business" in the north.

   Moreover, the family of Chen Guogong’s mansion are all in the capital!

   After a while, Li Xin had a general understanding of the situation in the North, and he asked: "General Ye Ming is under the Zhenbei Army, so who is the handsome one?"

   The seventh prince looked serious.

   "A kind of family army."

   hiss…

   The Pingnan Army in southern Xinjiang now, although it is no longer surnamed Ji, did not dare to call it Li Jiajun!

  Dare to take such a name, either because the family is actually independent, or because the court trusts the family.

Seeing Li Xin gasping for breath, the seventh prince chuckled: "Brother Xin, don't be too surprised, the Chong family army has a much deeper background than the Ye family's Li family, and they have been with me for more than a hundred years. Nothing to doubt."

  The Great Jin Dynasty ruled the world before Banjiazi, but before that, the five countries in the Central Plains coexisted for more than a hundred years. Now, it has been more than one hundred and fifty years since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty!

   "As soon as the Chong family members reach adulthood, they will join the Chong family army to work. There are only women and children from the Chong family in the capital, and the Chong family members keep a low profile, so it's hard to see them in action in the capital."

  Li nodded confidently.

   This is what an old-fashioned keeper looks like, like Li Chun and Ye Mao, they are too flamboyant.

  The seventh prince took a sip of tea and continued to speak.

"Although the Chong family did not make great achievements in the war of destroying the country, they have been in the army from generation to generation and are loyal to the court. Otherwise, the father and emperor would not have specially asked you to bring a telescopic mirror to Shuai Chong, whether it is the Chong family or the Ye family, They are all important figures in the court, this time Brother Xin goes to the north, and he has to make good friends."

   Li Xin smiled bitterly: "I'm a small person, and neither of them can see me. Is there anything worth making friends with?"

His Royal Highness Wei Wang squinted his eyes and smiled: "These few days, I have asked the people in the workshop to steam a little more wine, and then I will bring dozens of altars over there. It will not be included in the account, but it will be given to them by the Wei Palace. General Ye Ming and Chong Shuai may not look down on Brother Xin now, but they won't look down on our Wei Wangfu."

  Li Xin fell silent.

   The meaning of His Royal Highness King Wei is to ask him to help King Wei's mansion to deliver gifts.

   But after thinking about it, the emperor of Chengde deliberately let himself go, does it also have such a meaning?

   Li Xin took a deep breath and finally nodded slowly.

   "Don't worry, Your Highness, I understand."

  The Seventh Prince reached out and patted Li Xin on the shoulder, hehe smiled: "Giving gifts is second, it doesn't matter if they accept it or not, but after this trip back, Brother Xin, you are the commander of Yulinwei."

   His Royal Highness King Wei's voice became solemn.

   "Captain Yulin, we are only two steps away from General Yulin Zhonglang. We have to find a way to hold the position of this Zhonglang General in our hands!"
