People will grow up, Li Xin is no longer the charcoal seller who shivered in the cold wind at the beginning, Ye Mao will naturally not always be the innocent and lovely little grandfather, in fact, since Ye Ming closed his eyes, he is the third generation of Chen Guogong of the Great Jin Dynasty, the new head of the Ye family.

The butt sometimes decides the head, where to sit, the things in the head are different, the little grandfather in the past may have obeyed Li Xinyan, but now Ye Mao, who is Chen Guogong, thinks and thinks differently than before.

Without Ye Sheng, without Ye Ming, even the fourth child of the Ye family has to set up another door, at this time, his decision represents the decision of the entire Ye family, words and deeds, you have to think twice before acting.

Li Xin has always been good at human feelings, so he naturally understands this truth, so he said to Ye Mao that he would not implicate the Ye family.

Ye Mao, who is tall, was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke: "Uncle Shi misunderstood, the Ye family didn't mean to clear up the relationship, and before my father died, he told me that if there is anything in the future, I can find you." ”

He took a sip of wine and smiled at Li Xin reluctantly.

"Since I can ask my uncle for help, there is no reason why my uncle can't ask me for help, if my uncle can get my nephew in the future, you can speak, and the Ye family is duty-bound."

Li Xin didn't say anything, he first glanced at Ye Mao, and then lowered his head and took a mouthful of food.

"Your identity is different now, you have to pay more attention to what you say, the Ye family is not the only one of you with a dozen or so people."

After two generations of Chen Guogong went, the Ye family and the Ningling Marquis Mansion, counting Ye Ling's wife and children, added up to only a dozen people, these can be said to be the Ye family group, but the real Ye family is far more than these ten people.

For example, in Yejiazhuang in Ningling, there are hundreds of children surnamed Ye, and for example, Jimen Pass in northern Xinjiang, although there are not many people surnamed Ye in the 100,000 Zhenbei Army, but in the eyes of the world, these 100,000 people are all surnamed Ye.

If the Ye family falls, none of these people will end well.

Ye Mao shook his head: "I have known Uncle Shi for more than ten years, no matter what, Uncle Shi will not harm the Ye family." ”

He looked at Li Xin and suddenly grinned.

"Father said that if Uncle Shi said that he wanted to use the Ye family one day, then he must be ten percent sure, otherwise with Uncle Shi's character, he would not open this mouth."

"If Uncle Shi really speaks one day, my nephew will definitely bring his family funds and help him."

These two sentences are a bit slippery, which means that the Ye family can be icing on the cake, but it may not be a blessing in the snow. It's not like what Ye Mao can say, most of them were really taught to him by Ye Ming before his death.

But it doesn't matter, after all, it is a matter of life and death, and it is not easy to have such a level of statement, and the Ye family also took the initiative to hand over the power that could not be opened into the hands of Li Xin.

Li Xin glanced at Ye Mao helplessly.

"Speaking of which, it seems that everything is mine."

Ye Mao lifted the wine jug and poured it full for Li Xin, and the uncle and nephew touched another glass.

After drinking, Li Xin opened his mouth and asked, "Have you moved in Jizhou in the past few years, Yuwenzhao in the north?" ”

"Yes, there's a lot of movement in the north."

Ye Mao frowned slightly: "Yuwen Zhao's daughter married the Son of Heaven, and he was also named a Yan King, His Royal Highness the Yan King, a few months ago, he also took dozens of subordinates to take advantage of the Jimen Pass, and entered the pass in a grand manner, saying that he wanted to visit the mountains and rivers." ”

"After staying in the customs for two or three months, he returned to the headquarters after leaving the customs, and now he has surrendered to the imperial court, and he still has a knighthood, plus there are no large-scale soldiers and horses, we can't do anything about him, so we have to watch him enter and exit the border pass."

The Marquis of Jing'an took a sip of wine and said in a sullen voice: "Where is it to play in the mountains and rivers, I'm afraid it is to explore the terrain in the pass!" These Xianbei people were masters in the early years of the Guan, and now they are only two or three generations, and there are still many people alive in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, where are they willing to graze horses and sheep outside the Guanzhou forever? Maybe you want to enter the customs and return to the old capital! ”

The Northern Zhou Dynasty has been established for more than 100 years, and after sinicization, they are very yearning for the former life, and many people want to enter the customs and re-enter the old capital, and restore the former aristocratic life, instead of being beaten by the wind and rain outside the plug.

Ye Mao has been in Jizhou for five or six years, and he is very familiar with the northern Xinjiang, and when he heard this, he immediately spoke: "Even so, there is no way to take them, Yuwen Zhao is not only the king of heaven now, but also the ruler of the country, without the documents of the imperial court, no one can take him." ”

Yuwenzhao's daughter, Yuwenque, entered the capital as early as the ninth year of Taikang and wanted to marry the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, but Taikang Tianzi died of illness, and she could only be forced to stay in the capital.

The day after the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, the Xianbei Ministry came to worship and offered his daughter to the Son of Heaven as a sign of respect.

Last year, that is, in the third year of Yuan Zhao, the Son of Heaven expired his filial piety for his father, not only married the queen, but also welcomed Yuwenzhao's Yuwenque into the palace and made him a concubine.

Today's Yu Wenzhao is the ruler of the Great Jin Dynasty and a relative of the emperor.

Marquis of Jing'an narrowed his eyes and sneered: "It's a pity that I'm not in Jimen Pass, otherwise Yuwen Zhao dares to enter the pass, I will dare to kill him." ”

Killing Yuwen Zhao is nothing to Li Xin, at most it is just a rebuke from the imperial court, and without the strong figure of Yuwen Zhao, it is very likely that they will be divided again.

Ye Mao smiled bitterly: "That's you, uncle, we, the border generals, I can't take out our hearts and show them to the court to prove our innocence, where do you dare to rebel against the court, I heard that when Yu Wenzhao passed by Yunzhou City, the old man of Xuantong also invited him to have a drink." ”

Li Xin frowned, and then slowly spoke.

"Planters...... It is worthy of sharing weal and woe with the imperial court. ”

The uncle and nephew talked about the situation in northern Xinjiang for a while, Ye Mao casually threw the empty wine jug aside, replaced it with a new wine jug, and asked: "I heard that Uncle Shi has been staying in Yongzhou's hometown for the past two years, and I don't know the situation in the southwest?" ”

Ye Mao is now the speaker of the Ye family, and if he wants to cooperate with the Ye family, he must let him know some about the situation in the southwest, otherwise there will be no way to talk about it in the future.

Li Xin smiled slightly: "I haven't done anything in my hometown in the past few years, but I gave birth to another daughter, and I have the opportunity to take you to see it." ”

Ye Mao asked slowly, "What about the southwest?" ”

The Marquis of Jing'an's face was calm.

"There is your fourth uncle in the southwest and General Pei Jin, who has three ups and downs, and a total of 150,000 horses and horses look at the southwest portal, so naturally there will be no big problems."

"My nephew heard about it."

Ye Mao said with a smile: "I heard that the Southwest Army in the southwest can confront the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army head-on, and the soldiers and horses under the fourth uncle have suffered a lot of casualties because of the skirmish with the Southwest Army. ”

He winked at Li Xin and asked, "Uncle Shi is convenient to reveal and reveal, what is the point of the Southwest Army?" ”

Li Xin put down his wine glass and smiled generously: "There should be a total of 150,000 people in the southwest now, and the number of people should have exceeded the army of that year." ”

"What about combat power?"

Ye Mao's eyes burned.

"How is it compared to the army back then?"

"Naturally, it's more powerful."

Li Xin half-squinted his eyes and smiled implicitly.

"I think if the Southwest Army pours out, it shouldn't be a big problem to lay down the Jimen Pass."
