It depends on what you think, and if you don't want to live in hiding like my father did, you have to be prepared to go the second way. ”

"The position at the top can only accommodate one person, if you want to go, you have to be more simple, procrastinate like this, and in the end harm others and yourself."

Li Xin was silent for a while, and finally spoke: "Senior brother's teachings, junior brother has taken it to heart. ”

"It's not a teaching."

Ye Ming smiled: "It's just that after reading my father's experience over the years, I just feel it, to be honest, I don't want anyone to rebel in my heart, after all, the war is together, no matter who kills the deer, it is the common people who suffer, but now, you have reached the point where there are only these two choices left." ”

Li Xin nodded.

"That's what Senior Brother said."

He exhaled slowly: "To be honest, the younger brother didn't have much ambition originally, and I don't know why, he has come to this point step by step, but as the senior brother said, now, since he has come here, he should take the responsibility that he should bear." ”

Ye Ming glanced at Li Xin and asked, "Do you want me to send you out of Beijing?" ”

If there was to be a rebellion in the southwest, Li Xin would definitely not be able to stay in the capital, and he would never be able to command the rebels to rebel in the enemy's base camp.

The Marquis of Jing'an shook his head slightly, and said: "Now is not the time to leave the capital, besides, there will be no danger for me to stay in the capital at this time, and when the right opportunity arises, the younger brother will leave the capital." ”

"Then you'll see what you do."

General Ye smiled, pulled Li Xin's sleeve and said, "It's been a while since the meal at home was cooked, our brothers haven't drunk together for so many years, so let's have a good drink today." ”

Marquis Jing'an nodded happily.

"It's better to be respectful than to obey."

The two brothers had a good drink in Chen Guogong's mansion, Ye Ming's alcohol consumption was not very good, after three rounds of drinking, he was already flushed, in comparison, Li Xin was much better, he asked Ye Ming to rest, and then left Chen Guogong's mansion.

At the gate of the Guogong Mansion, the carriage of the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion had been waiting for a long time, and as soon as Li Xin arrived at the gate of the Marquis of Jing'an, he saw a young man in purple clothes, waiting at the gate of the Hou Mansion.

Li Xin stepped out of the carriage and saw the scimitar that the young man was carrying at his waist, and probably guessed who this person was.

After the Xianbei people founded the Northern Zhou Dynasty, they carried out large-scale sinicization, and the later Xianbei people's clothing color was no different from the Han people, especially the nobles in the Xianbei people, who were more elaborate than the Han people.

The scimitar worn at the waist can be said to be the only symbol of their Xianbei status.

Li Xin walked up with his hands in his hand, glanced up and down at the young man, and asked indifferently, "Yuwen Di?" ”

Yuwen Di had never seen Li Xin, but he was directly called by Li Xin, he first glanced up at Li Xin, and then recognized the Dajin official uniform he was wearing in a hurry, and hurriedly took two steps back, bowing respectfully to Li Xin: "Xianbei Yuwen Di, I have seen Mrs. Li." ”

Li Xin's face was calm: "Isn't your envoy supposed to be in the hall of the Ministry of Rites, why did you come to my door?" ”

"That's right."

Yuwen Di bowed and said: "Before coming to the capital, my father once instructed my little nephew that after coming to the capital, I must go to the Taifu Mansion to meet him. ”

"The little nephew is in the north, and I have heard of Taifu's name, and I only know when I meet today that Taifu is so young."

"At such an age, there is such an achievement, which is really admirable......

After a rainbow fart, Yuwen Di took out a gift list from his sleeve, held it in his hands, and said respectfully: "My father said that he was fortunate to meet Taifu, and he was half a friend, so he asked his little nephew to bring some gifts to Taifu." ”

Yuwen Di is twenty-two years old this year, and Li Xin is only twenty-seven or eighteen years old, the two are not much different in age, and they can even be said to be the same age, and this little prince of Yuwen Department, a little nephew, has a very low attitude.

Li Xin took the gift list from his hand, glanced at it briefly, and saw that most of them were sheepskins and cowhides, which were abundant on the grassland.

However, when he saw the last item, Li Xin glanced at Yu Wendi unexpectedly.

"Forty Liangzhou horses, Yuwen Heavenly King is so big, if I remember correctly, the Yuwen Ministry gave the imperial court only a hundred."

He closed the gift list and threw it back into Yuwen Di's hand, his face calm: "Your ministry's intentions, this official has the heart, but I don't want things, otherwise I can't be said to be a foreign country?" ”

Yuwen Di took two steps forward and lowered his voice.

"Taifu, these horses are all good stallions, there are males and females, Taifu is not convenient to receive in the capital, the little nephew can let people take a detour to the southwest......"

Li Xin frowned at this time: "What does the southwest have to do with this official?" ”

Yuwen Di smiled and didn't say anything more.

In fact, as early as the eighth year of Taikang, after Li Xin was imprisoned by Taikang Tianzi because of the affairs of the southwest, the relationship between him and the southwest is already a secret that there is no open secret, and now it is almost the second year of Yuan Zhao, more than two years have passed, and the court in the capital is not impermeable, and Yu Wenzhao in the north knows some of the situation in the court, which is normal.

There is no reason why the imperial court can spy on the news of the Yuwen Ministry, and the Yuwen Ministry cannot listen to the news of the imperial court.

The Marquis of Jing'an narrowed his eyes and said indifferently: "You don't want these things, this official doesn't want them, you better take them back." ”

Yuwen Di's attitude was very humble, he bowed his head and said: "After my father met with Taifu, I have always admired Taifu, and I want to see Taifu again, these gifts are only a slight expression of my Xianbei Department's respect for Taifu, there is no other meaning, please don't be too careful,"

"I took the salute and took the things."

Mrs. Li smiled coldly: "Yu Wenzhao sent me these in the capital, I'm afraid that I will die in the capital." ”

"If he wants to see me, let him come to see me in the capital."

Yuwen Di smiled reluctantly.

"When the imperial court is officially sealed, my father will go to Beijing to thank him, and his old man will definitely come to see the Hou Ye at that time."

Li Xin looked disdainful, pursed his lips, and walked into his Hou Mansion with his hands in his hands.

Yuwen Di bowed his head respectfully, and only after Li Xin walked away did he look up at the gate of the tall and majestic Jing'an Hou Mansion.

The eyes are full of ambition.

In the imperial city of the Northern Zhou Dynasty decades ago, they were all poor and extravagant.

But now, most of them are living in tents!

Thinking of this, Yuwen Di took a deep breath, turned around and left the gate of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, he had just walked out of this alley not far away, a team of red-clothed guards, under the leadership of Xiao Huai, the inner guard, immediately surrounded Yuwen Di.

The little prince Yuwen's face changed slightly, and he arched his hand at Xiao Huai and said, "This father-in-law, what does this mean?" ”

Xiao Huai's face was a little not good-looking, he glanced at Yuwen Di up and down, and then reached out and touched it, with a somewhat strange expression: "Your envoy ...... Are you in good health? ”

Yuwen Di was a little puzzled: "I'm naturally fine, father-in-law...... What do you mean by that? ”

Xiao Huai wiped the sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly pulled him towards the distance.

"It's okay if it's okay, it's okay if it's okay."

Naturally, he wouldn't tell Yu Wendi that although that Mrs. Li looked suave, he could ...... at any time Slashed him with a knife......
