Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 458

After sitting in Chen Guogong's mansion for a while, Zhao Jia roughly talked about the whole process. After Li Xin heard it, he didn't say much, but said slowly: "Senior brother, what Brother You An said is not unreasonable. The matter is already like this, Senior Brother, there is no need to think too much, and we will discuss it after Ye Mao returns from the palace."

  Ye Ming nodded and said, "That's it."

   As he spoke, he glanced at Li Xin and said, "I have something to tell Chang'an, I'm afraid my brother won't be able to keep up with your marriage."

  Li Xin was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Senior brother is going to lead an army?"

   Li Xin had guessed before that since the southern border was erecting a rebellion, then Ye Ming might not be able to stay in the capital until the Chinese New Year, but now it's better, he can't even participate in Li Xin's marriage.

Ye Ming said in a low voice: "Your Majesty has already discussed with my brother, about three days later, let me take your forbidden army right camp, your right camp has a total of eight Zhechong residences, this time for my brother first Go to five, and the remaining three will be supported by you after the new year."

Li Xin was stunned for a while, and then said with a smile: "Senior brother, don't worry about my younger brother, you can take the eight Zhechong residences together. When my younger brother is in the capital for the New Year, he will immediately go to the southwest, and then the younger brother will be alone. On the road, the speed is even faster, maybe I can reach the southwest in the same time as my senior brother."

The speed of the march cannot be too fast. According to the quality of the banned army at this time, if they want to march for a long distance, thirty or forty miles a day is almost the limit. At this speed, they want to reach the southwest, and it will take at least two or three months. , or even longer, and if Li Xin is on the road alone, he can travel 200 miles a day on horseback, and it is really possible to catch up with the large army by then.

Ye Ming shook his head and said in a low voice, "The Ministry of Household's food and grass have not been raised yet, and they still need to raise food after the New Year's Eve. At that time, this batch of food and grass will be sent to the front line in Chang'an. This is a very important errand, but Chang'an, your cautious temperament, you can rest assured for your brother."

  Li Xin frowned.

  When the late emperor Chengde Dynasty, Dajin was generally wealthy, and the treasury was full. It can be said that he saved a lot of wealth for future generations. How can it be so difficult to raise a batch of food and grass for the war in just one year?

   You must know that the treasury is not all money, but more hoarded grain. During the Chengde Dynasty, the four big barns near the capital were all filled.

   Li Xin frowned, but didn't say much.

   "So, the elder brother will go ahead and the younger brother will stay in the capital, waiting for His Majesty's will."

   said, Li Xin was about to get up and leave.

   Zhao Jia also stood up, clasped his fists at Ye Ming, and prepared to leave.

   Ye Ming frowned slightly, then smiled: "Isn't Brother Zhao's family in Ye Mansion, why are you leaving?"

Before Zhao Jia could speak, Li Xin said with a smile: "I was about to tell my elder brother about this, my younger brother is about to get married, and the family is not enough, which is very inconvenient. I work on the little brother's side, so the little brother wondered if he could take Brother You'an's family temporarily to the little brother's Hou Mansion to live in?"

   This is Hua Mingzheng's poaching.

   Ye Ming smiled and said, "My brother has not been in the capital for a long time, I don't care about the matter of the Ye family, I still have to ask my father."

   Li Xin hit haha.

   "My brother discussed this matter with Master Ye, and he agreed to send someone to help my younger brother."

   Ye Ming was speechless.

  He raised his head and glanced at Zhao Jia lightly.

   "Brother Zhao, are you going there yourself?"

   Zhao Jia looked calm and bent down deeply.

   "Returning to the uncle, under the order of the old man, I will stay with the marquis for the time being, and it will be more convenient for the family to move there."

   "If that's the case, let's move in."

   Ye Ming sighed slightly.

Every talent like Zhao Jia is a rare treasure. In fact, he doesn't want to let go, but a Zhao Jia can't match Li Xin's weight anyway. Li Xin opened his mouth, Zhao Jia is also willing to go, and naturally Not good to keep people.

   Li Xin said with a smile, "Thank you, senior brother, for your accomplishment. Senior brother will be leaving in a few days. When tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, my brother will come and invite senior brother to have a drink."

   Ye Ming smiled heartily.

   "I'm always waiting."

  ………………

  Li Xin and Zhao Jia sat face to face on the purple carriage in Jing'an Hou's Mansion.

   Zhao Youan's back was already wet with sweat.

  Although he is a smart person, but being smart doesn't mean he won't be afraid. After all, he hasn't experienced any big scenes. Faced with the questioning of a border general like Ye Ming, it is inevitable that he will be afraid.

  Li Xin sat opposite him, with a calm expression and a faint smile on his face.

   "Brother You'an, from now on, you will mess with me."

   Zhao Jia took a few deep breaths and smiled bitterly: "To be honest, the Ye family is very good at being a lowly position..."

   When he said this, he did not continue.

  Li Xin smiled and said, "It's just that the Ye family can't give you an upright identity."

  According to the meaning of old man Ye, Zhao Jia was cultivated as Ye Mao's think tank, which means that if nothing else happens, Zhao Jia will live in Ye Mao's shadow all his life and become a part of Ye Mao.

   There is no way for him to have an "official body", he can only be a vassal of the Ye family.

   But Li Xin is different. Li Xin doesn't need this kind of shadow very much. He and Zhao Jia are only in the relationship between superiors and subordinates, not masters and subordinates.

   This is the reason why Zhao Jia gave up the Ye family and turned to Li Xin.

   Of course, part of the reason for this is that Zhao Jia saw Li Xin's potential, and he felt that Li Xin could give him more than the Ye family could give him.

   Zhao Jia was silent.

   After a while, he raised his head and glanced at Li Xin.

   "Master Hou, those Northern Zhou clans were coerced by Zhao County's Li clan to rebel against the imperial court. Now those clans are willing to surrender to the imperial court, they want a way out."

  Li Xin got up seriously, and said lightly, "It doesn't matter what I said, it's up to His Majesty to say it."

   "They committed suicide by themselves, and now life and death have fallen into the hands of others, and it is also their own fault."

Zhao Jia lowered his eyebrows and said, "Master Hou, these Northern Zhou clans shouldn't die, because Your Majesty will rely on them to denounce the Pingnan Army in the southern border. The clans have existed for nearly a thousand years. As long as they don't die, even if they have nothing to become civilians, they will become commoners in the court and the opposition. There will also be a huge influence here, and Lord Hou can try to get in touch with these people. At this time, if Lord Hou can help in the snow, this group of people may be used by Lord Hou in the future."

  Li Xin squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then grinned.

   "Although Brother You'an is right, the layout is too small."

   "At this time, even if they are really useful to me, I shouldn't be looking for them, but they should beg me to save their lives."

   said, Li Xin pouted in disdain.

   "Besides, I'm still in a hurry to get married, so I don't have time to pay attention to them."
