Yesterday, Ji Ying stayed alive in Xiangyang City, had a meal with Li Xin, and there were people from the dark department to protect him with all their might, and the security level was almost the same as Li Xin himself, so naturally it was impossible to say that he would die.

But in this document sent from the capital, it is clearly written that the sixth prince Ji Ying was seriously ill in Shanyin, and after several months of diagnosis and treatment by the imperial doctor, he unfortunately died, and after Yuan Zhao Tianzi learned that his brother died, he cried bitterly on the ground, and under the grief, he did not enter the water and rice for three days and three nights, and fainted in the Weiyang Palace.

After the coffin of the six princes was sent back to the capital, the Son of Heaven personally supported the coffin and buried him in the burial mausoleum near the tomb of Emperor Jing, so that he could accompany the first emperor.

The civil and military officials of the capital all participated in the funeral of the six princes.

In other words, no matter whether the six princes are dead or not, in legal terms, he is already dead, and even if Ji Ying reappears in the capital, he is just an ordinary person who looks like the six princes.

What's even worse is that Ji Ying has been locked up in Shanyin for so many years, except for the Xie family, basically no one recognizes him, and no one knows what he looks like now, even if Ji Ying returns to the capital, no one will know who he is.

No matter who he is, he can't be the Sixth Prince.

Although this trick is to pick up Li Xin's teeth and wisdom against Li Shen back then, it has to be said that it is still very useful, once the death of the six princes becomes a consensus, then Li Xin spent a lot of money, and it will be useless to bring Ji Ying back to the southwest from Shanyin.

He was silent for a while, handed the document in his hand to Zhao Jia, and frowned, "Brother You'an, take a look too." ”

After Zhao Jia took the paperwork, he quickly read the original situation at a glance, and after he read it, he also frowned: "The way the court coped with it is very good, as soon as this trick comes out, the six princes in the southwest will be of limited use." ”

After a pause, he bowed his head and said, "General, do you want to send someone to Yuezhou again to bring the king of Yueyang to Xiangyang." ”

"No need."

Li Xin narrowed his eyes and said in a muffled voice: "The right to speak is in the hands of the imperial court, no matter who we use as the banner, the imperial court can call him fake with a word, and it is not of much use." ”

"Let's use the six princes, that is, to ask for an orthodox title, the so-called name, is nothing more than the right to speak, with Mu Ying's eastward advance, there will be a large number of Central Plains territories in our hands, these places also have their own Confucian celebrities, let's give Ji Ying a correct name, we don't need the court."

Speaking of this, Li Xin turned his head to look at Zhao Jia, and said in a deep voice: "This matter still needs Brother You'an's heart, Brother You'an is a scholar, you should know what famous scholars are today, after Mu Ying and I laid down these places, I also asked Brother You'an to send someone to their house to act as a lobbyist, so that they can speak for the southwest." ”

Zhao Jia frowned and smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid it's not possible." ”

"The reason why those scholars can become celebrities is because they cherish their reputation, and before the dust falls, they will never speak for us anti-thieves, if they are forced by life and death, it will be counterproductive."

"There are few saints in this world."

General Li sneered: "No one is without shortcomings, I asked Zhao Yi to lead a group of people from the dark department to investigate in detail, and I can always find some people with unclean buttocks, and use the ugly things they have done to force them to speak to the southwest." ”

"With the first and second, the latter will be much easier, as long as we fight smoothly on the battlefield, more and more people will stand up and speak to us."

Zhao Jia nodded and said: "That's the truth, but everything is difficult at the beginning, I have to preside over political affairs in Jincheng, and I can't be separated, I can have big ideas for these things, but someone has to be responsible for specific things......

Li Xin closed his eyes, thought about it seriously, and then said, "I have a candidate here, so that he can go to Brother You'an's tent to listen to it." ”

Zhao Jia smiled: "There is also a candidate for subordinates, who wants to ask for someone from Hou Ye." ”

The two of them glanced at each other and smiled tacitly.

Obviously, the two of them are talking about the same person.

That's ...... Zhao Fang.

Zhao Fang was born in a family, is the son of the Li family of Zhao County, has been familiar with poetry and books since he was a child, and even Zhao Jia admires him very much in terms of knowledge, and once suggested to Li Xin that he should stay in Jincheng as an official, and what is even more rare is that he also went to fight in the Zhenbei Army for several years, and his mind is quite mature, and his eloquence is not bad, so he is suitable to be a lobbyist.

"That kid has been recuperating from his injuries for a few months, he should be recuperated at this time, I will write a letter to him later, and when Brother You'an returns to Beijing, I will let him go to Brother You'an's Jingluo Mansion to work."

Zhao Jia bowed his head slightly, and said with a smile: "Zhao Fang and the little girl are newly married Yan'er, and they have been together for a few months, and in a few days, the general may have to add a nephew." ”

General Li smiled.

"There are still more than a dozen jars of Zhurong wine in the early years of Taikang in my house, and it is really as Brother You'an said that there are many nephews, so take out all those wines and celebrate them well."

Zhurong wine was made by Li Xin in the Chengde years, but there were not many Zhurong wines in the Chengde years, most of them were sent to the army, except for some military private collections, it is difficult to find them again, and the Zhurong wine in the early years of Taikang has been more than ten years now, and it is also a rare treasure.

When Zhao Jia heard this, his eyes lit up, and he smiled at Li Xin and said: "It's rare for the general to be so generous, I remember that when the young daughter of the general's family was born, he was not willing to take out those old wines and share them with us." ”

"At that time, there was not enough vintage, and there was no taste when I drank it."

Li Xin waved his hand: "Don't talk about this, after Brother You'an returns to Jincheng, if you hear the news that my sister is pregnant, remember to send me a letter, I have to remember the day." ”

Li Xin and Zhong Xiaoxiao have relied on each other for so many years, and their relationship is much better than that of ordinary brothers and sisters, this is a well-known thing in the southwest, Zhao Jia bowed his head slightly, and said: "My subordinates have remembered." ”

Zhao Jia and Li Xin have known each other for many years, and the two of them are more like friends than like superiors and subordinates, after chatting for a while, a black-armored general climbed the city tower, Zhao Jia glanced back at this person, arched his hand at Li Xin, and said: "General, my subordinates will return to Jincheng tomorrow, and they have to pack up their things, so they will retire." ”

Li Xin also saw Li Shuo's figure, and immediately nodded: "Early tomorrow morning, I will see off Brother You'an at the West City Gate." ”

Zhao Jia bowed and retreated, Li Shuo stepped forward, bowed to Li Xin and said, "General, the Ningzhou army has been cleaned up and can set off at any time." ”

"Leave 10,000 people to hold Xiangyang City, and ten days later, the Ningzhou army will raise troops and follow Mu Ying to the east."

Li Xin looked at Li Shuo and said solemnly: "This time, Mu Ying's Hanzhou Army, as the vanguard army, will fight all the way to Gyeonggi, and the Ningzhou Army as the Chinese army, along the way, we must accept all available people and available soldiers as much as possible, I hope that the Ningzhou Army will follow behind the Hanzhou Army and more than double the number when it arrives in Gyeonggi." ”

Li Shuo bowed his head respectfully: "Don't worry, the general will do a good job!" ”

Li Xin patted his cheap brother on the shoulder, and said indifferently: "When you get to Gyeonggi, it will be your Ningzhou army that will attack, and you should think about it yourself." ”

Li Shuo's breathing suddenly increased, and he bowed his head deeply.

"The Last General ......"

"The Ningzhou Army will live up to the expectations of the general!"
