Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 403 You Chapter 411 Jingan Hou Online Teaching

The    court meeting dispersed, but neither Li Xin nor Hou Jingde left.

   As the two generals who are about to take over the Imperial Army, Emperor Taikang has too much to say to them.

Hou Jingde is okay. After the palace change last year, he was assigned to serve as Pei Jin's deputy in the Forbidden Army. After more than half a year, he was already familiar with the Forbidden Army, while Li Xin was smeared. If he took over at this time. The forbidden army had to rely on the people sent by Chen Guogong's government.

   But it doesn't matter.

  Li Xin doesn't care about this.

For him, whether it is Yulinwei or the Imperial Army, it is only a stage of life, because they cannot truly become Li Xin's people. Turning his face, it is clear at a glance which side these banned soldiers will stand on.

The emperor was worried about Pei Jin because Pei Jin had been in the Imperial Army for more than ten years, and he belonged to him, so Pei Jin had to be removed. As for Li Xin and Hou Jingde, the two of them were destined to be their replacement The Son of Heaven is in command.

  For Li Xin, the Imperial Army was just a ladder for him to climb up. In terms of reliability, it was not even as good as Yulinwei.

After    went down to court, not only Li Xin and Hou Jingde were left behind, but also Ji Ping, the Grand Governor of the Grand Governor's House.

   As for Li Hou, they could only wait in the side hall of Weiyang Palace.

   Fortunately, both of them had stools, and Hou Jingde's huge buttocks only dared to sit down halfway carefully.

   You can't blame him for being timid. In fact, all the courtiers who entered the palace looked like this, including the Duke Haoran, they all just sat like they were, expressing that they were in awe of the emperor's prestige and were terrified.

  As for Li Xin, he has to be more casual. Since he came back from Yongzhou, he has come to the palace eight or nine times, not ten times, as long as he is polite to the emperor, these little rules cannot restrain him.

  After the two of them waited for a while, Hou Jingde finally couldn't bear it any longer, he secretly sat next to Li Xin and spoke in a low voice.

   "Brother Li, when do you think His Majesty will summon us?"

  Li Xin didn't want to pay attention to him at first, but he reached out his hand not to hit the smiling man, hesitated for a moment, and replied slowly.

   "I'm afraid it will take a while."

The emperor took a lot of risk when he promoted Pei Jin to the Grand Governor's Mansion, because in terms of power, the Right Governor of the Grand Governor's Mansion was much bigger than the general of the Imperial Army, who could only control the Imperial Army. , and the two governors of the Grand Governor's Mansion can theoretically dispatch troops and horses across the country!

   Therefore, Pei Jin's power must be tightly restrained. This is an extremely important matter, and the Emperor Taikang will naturally have a good discussion with the Zuo Governor.

  Hou Jingde said to Li Xin with a smile: "Why are Brother Li so different now? Did you forget that we went out of Yu Linwei together, and Brother Yu will point to Brother Li to lead the way in the future."

Hou Jingde is not stupid, but he is definitely not smart. Otherwise, he is the son of a marquis, and he would not be in his 40s and still in the position of Yulin Wei Zuolang. Although this person is not very smart, he is very smart. recognize people.

   It was Li Xin who took him out of Yu Linwei's booth and made him a third-rank general, so he decided that he had to follow Li Xin, a smart man, so that he could sit safely.

   Li Xin sighed helplessly.

   He has neglected Hou Jingde many times, but this fellow still doesn't understand what he means, at this time, he can only tell the truth to him.

  Li Xin looked left and right, then lowered his voice.

   "Brother Hou, after Pei Jin retreated, it was me and you who were in charge of the Imperial Army together."

   Hou Jingde grinned: "That's great, just like in Yulinwei before, you and I are half brothers."

   Li Xin was silent for a while, looking at the big man like an idiot.

   "There are only 3,000 Yulin Guards combined, and there are 300,000 Imperial Guards near the capital!"

  Li Xin took a deep breath and whispered, "Do you know why Pei Jin was squeezed out of the Imperial Army? It's because Pei Jin alone can have the final say in the Imperial Army, and His Majesty can't tolerate another Pei Jin!"

"You and I are in charge of the Imperial Army together. The two of us together are one Pei Jin. This is what Your Majesty doesn't want to see. Even if he doesn't care now, in a few years, he will not like the eye and treat us as another Pei. Enter, squeeze out of the Imperial Army, understand?"

   Hou Jingde's eyes widened, but he didn't understand what Li Xin was saying.

   After a long time, he digested the information that Li Xin told him, and then murmured: "Brother Li, what do you mean..."

   "I mean, the two of us won't be brothers anymore."

Li Xin sighed slightly and said in a low voice, "There is no such thing as the Yu Linwei faction. We two are in charge of half the Imperial Army, and Ye Lin will also take over Ye Shaobao's position and take over the Zhenbei Army. At this time, if What other Yulin guards are there, so what do we Yulin guards want to do, do you want to change the palace again?"

   His voice was very low, but to Hou Jingde, it sounded like thunder.

   He was speechless for a while.

  Li Xin squinted his eyes and continued: "Last time, at his court meeting, Big Brother Hou said I ignored you. Think about it for yourself, can I ignore you?"

   Hou Jingde finally understood, he nodded blankly.

   "It's still Brother Li...thinking long term."

Li Xin picked up a piece of cake on the table and took a bite, and said slowly: "Brother Hou, listen carefully, starting from today, the two of us will not be enemies, at least we can't get along peacefully, we must give birth to Some discord, it's best to make things bigger and let the whole capital know that you and I are not compatible."

   "Why make a big deal?"

   Li Xin glanced at the goods helplessly.

   "For example, I said you have no brains."

   Hou Jingde blushed and said in a low voice, "Brother Li, is this going too far?"

   "Don't say goodbye, just listen carefully."

Li Xin whispered: "When the court's appointment was made, when you and I were both generals of the Imperial Army, you would go around in private and say that Li Xin is a yellow-haired child, his deciduous teeth have not been cleaned, and he has no military exploits. No, if it wasn't for being able to speak well, to speak eloquently, and to have a relationship with the eldest princess of Qinghe, who is a relative to His Majesty, how could He De He be on the same level as me!"

   "When I was in Yulinwei, I looked at him unpleasantly. I never thought that His Majesty was blinded by him like this, and even the great responsibility of the Imperial Army was handed over to such a hairy child!"

   "Eighteen-year-old general of the Imperial Guard, isn't this nonsense?"

   Li Xin said these words in a very flat tone,

But Hou Jingde blushed when he heard this, and he shook his head again and again: "How did this make, who did not know that Yu Linwei's brothers at the time, it was Brother Li, you brought us together to make a fortune, at this time, if my old Hou said this behind his back Damn, what do the old brothers of Yulinwei think of me?"

  Li Xin slowly finished the cake in his mouth, and said word by word: "As long as you finish saying this sentence behind people, you will not be able to escape the glory and wealth of your life. Brother Hou, do you say it?"

   Hou Jingde nodded honestly without any hesitation.

"I say."

  Li Xin patted him on the shoulder, hehe smiled and said, "As expected of a general's disciple, simply."

   Hou Jingde sighed and said in a low voice, "Old brother has a big family at home, there is nothing we can do about it."

   said, he looked up at Li Xin, sighed again, and said with regret.

   "My father is celebrating his birthday next month. Originally, he always wanted to see Brother Li, but now it seems that he has no chance."

   Li Xin squinted his eyes and said nothing.

"Brother Hou, it doesn't matter whether we have a fight or not, the most important thing is to let everyone know that we have broken up, so that the relationship between the two of us will not be very good when we are under the imperial army, Your Majesty's The purpose has been achieved.”

   "As for breaking up, there must be a process, otherwise it will look too stiff and it will make people suspicious."

  Li Xin smiled.

   "Uncle Hou's birthday next month, I will go."
