The border army colludes with each other, is the biggest taboo, since Emperor Wu, the Ye family and the seed family have jointly defended the Great Jin Frontier, it has been more than 40 years, and in the past 40 years, the two families have not exchanged even a letter.

At least not on the surface.

In addition, the generals in the capital sometimes intermarry with each other, as the top two generals in the Great Jin Dynasty, there has never been a marriage involved in the past forty years, and even when the old Duke Ye who is revered by everyone in the Great Jin Dynasty was alive, the family did not visit the old prince much.

Generations of breeders have been very cautious personalities.

Among them, the contemporary head of the family is a kind of Xuantong, who is a careful official in the Great Jin Dynasty, when Li Xin was still a school captain, he went to Yunzhou City to send things, and Xuantong was still polite to him, refused to accept Li Xin's favor, and gave away the sword when he was a teenager.

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

Yuan Zhao Tianzi frowned deeply.

In fact, he was also very embarrassed in his heart, at this time, even a teenager could figure it out, of course, it was better for the Ye family to guard the pass in the north, but Li Xin went to Ningling, and met with Ye Lu and Ye Mao's uncle and nephew, if Li Xin and the Ye family really reached any "agreement", then letting the Ye family take charge of the army would be equivalent to handing over the Zhenbei Army to Li Xin!

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

It was precisely because of this risk that the emperor would take 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 the Jimen Pass.

But now that Xuantong is kneeling in front of him, this is an old minister of the three dynasties, or a general who has been in charge of the army for three consecutive dynasties, even if it is the Son of Heaven, it is not easy to directly refute his face.

Thinking of this, the Son of Heaven stretched out his hand to help the old general up from the ground and let him sit on the chair, and then the young Great Jin Son of Heaven slowly spoke: "Of course I understand what the old general said, but the situation in the southwest is also very bad now, and the old general can't just focus on the northern frontier and not see the southwest. ”

Tan Xuantong let out a long sigh.

The southwest and the imperial court have been officially opposed, it has been several years, such a long time, even if Xuantong is in Yunzhou, he doesn't know the specific details, but the general situation is naturally known, the old man shook his eyebrows, which were already a little white, and shook his head slightly.

"In the early years, the old minister had contact with Mrs. Li a few times, when he was still a high-spirited young man, I didn't expect that the old minister was not in the capital for more than ten years, and Mrs. Li actually came 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, it will not reach the point of betraying the imperial court. ”

"But Ye Lao Guogong has already gone."

Yuan Zhao Tianzi said silently: "If the old prince is still here, I will naturally trust the Ye family, but the old prince has already gone, and even Ye Ming has already left, so I can't put the Jiangshan Sheji left by my ancestors on the loyalty of the Ye family." ”

Saying that, the Son of Heaven sighed at Chong Xuantong: "I hope the old general can understand me." ”

"......"

Chong Xuantong frowned and said: "But the situation in the northern Xinjiang is urgent, the old minister is worried that the general sent by His Majesty will not be able to deal with the wolf-like Yuwen tribesmen, if His Majesty is unwilling to send Chen Guogong or Ningling Marquis to Jizhou, then the old minister begs Your Majesty to write a letter to the general you sent to Jizhou, once the fight starts, let him try his best to ...... Listen to the advice of the generals of the Zhenbei Army. ”

"It's nature."

The Son of Heaven said: "I will let Xiao Zheng draft, and I will also give an edict to the Xianbei Department to warn Yu Wenzhao not to do anything wrong in Northern Xinjiang." ”

Speaking of this, the Son of Heaven paused, and then said to Xuantong with some helplessness: "Old General, the situation in the north can only be like this now, and everything can only be freed up to deal with the north when the hidden dangers in the southwest are removed." ”

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

"The southwest can only be dragged on."

Yuan Zhao Tianzi said slowly: "The old general may or may not know that the reason why the southwest can confront the imperial court in a corner is because they have a sharp weapon, called Tianlei, whether it is defending the city or chaotic formation, it is a first-class divine object, and there must be a way to crack this thing in order to solve the hidden dangers in the southwest." ”

"I've already asked the Ministry of Industry to start copying these thunders."

Yuan Zhao Tianzi said: "When the heavenly thunder of the imperial court is made, the hidden danger in the southwest will no longer be a hidden danger, and Yuwenzhao in the north will not be a problem. ”

Although he had heard of the name of Tianlei, he had never seen the real thing after all, and he didn't say anything when he heard it, but he just sighed slightly and said: "Your Majesty, if the general of the Zhenbei Army cannot be replaced by the Ye family, the old minister implores Your Majesty to transfer three or four people from the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army to the Zhichong Mansion, and go north to station near Yunzhou and Jizhou, ready to support the two passes at any time!" ”

The Gyeonggi Forbidden Army had a total of 16 Orechung provinces, each of which was of a different size, ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 people, and if four Orechong provinces could be sent north, there would probably be about 60,000 people.

This opinion, the Son of Heaven was not easy to refuse, 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 is in the capital and goes north with a few Zhechong Mansions to support, then the capital will definitely be able to sit back and relax, and the Xianbei Department may also suffer a big loss in his hands!

But it's a pity that Li Xin is not in the capital.

Thinking of this, the old general sighed, and arched his hand to the Son of Heaven: "The old minister has not been in the capital for a long time, and he doesn't know anything about the characters in the capital, so Your Majesty has decided." ”

"Then I'll discuss it with a few prime ministers later."

Chong Xuantong got up, bowed to the Son of Heaven, and then respectfully withdrew from Weiyang Palace.

Xiao Zheng personally sent him and sent him to Yong'anmen.

When walking in the imperial city, the old general sighed faintly, he remembered the young man who came to Yunzhou City to deliver a letter to himself during the Chengde period with many altars to celebrate the melting wine.

At that time, the young man was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and he had to use Zhurong wine to do favors to the seed family for His Royal Highness King Wei.

Later, the young man made his career in the Taikang Dynasty and became the youngest general in the history of the Great Jin Dynasty, in the eighth year of Taikang, the general was appointed as the general of Zhenbei, and was ordered to march north, and when he walked to Jimen Pass, he also wrote a letter to Yunzhou City.

The letter was written in high spirits, as long as the breeder is willing to cooperate, he should completely destroy the Yuwen Department 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 thief?
