After all, the Ye family is too shallow.

Ye Sheng is the first generation, he is a hero from the grass, when his eldest son Ye Ming was born, the Ye family has not yet made too many achievements, but when the little grandfather Ye Mao was born, the Ye family has become a behemoth of the Great Jin Dynasty, and has become one of the best generals in the court, he has been taken by Ye Sheng since he was a child, and everything has been blocked out by Ye Sheng's huge body.

And that's not entirely bad.

Between heaven and earth, there are people who are treacherous, and there must be ancient ways to be warm, and everyone on the street can't think about calculating others, if so, the world will be chaotic.

A character like Ye Mao, born in a small family, there will be no problem at all, he may live a bright life, but born in a big family like the Ye family, it will be very problematic.

It's not that if you are born in a big family, you can't live if you don't do bad things, but that if you are born in this kind of big family, you can not do bad things, but you must be able to do it, and at the same time, you must be able to understand it, prevent others from doing bad things to you, and you must be more active in your mind to be qualified to be the head of a big family.

Like Ye Mao, if the intestines are not bent enough, it is not suitable.

But he is the eldest grandson of the Ye family, and Old Man Ye is determined to hand over the Ye family to him, and he is a little uneasy, so he asked Li Xin to take him.

At first, Li Xin thought that Old Man Ye was thinking that Ye Mao was not smart enough, but now he realized that Old Man Ye felt that his grandson was too "positive".

Li Xin wanted to open his mouth to tell the young man in front of him, telling him that he had to be "bad" in order to live a nourishing life in this world, but seeing Ye Mao's face, Li Xin didn't continue after all.

It's okay not to persuade people to be good, but you can't persuade people to be evil, right?

Thinking of this, the Marquis of Jing'an sighed silently, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Ye Mao, I will send you a few words, you heard clearly." ”

Ye Mao lowered his hand and held the disciple salute.

"Listen, nephew."

"In this world, there are good people and bad people, I can't persuade you to be evil, but I want to tell you."

"A gentleman can deceive him."

"If you are alone, you will be bullied if you are bullied, but you will be the one who will be in charge of the Ye family in the future, and the Ye family cannot be bullied."

Speaking of this, Jing Anhou said lightly: "Because the position of the Ye family is too high, in that position, if you fall, you may fall to pieces, you are also a person with a wife and children, Master Ye and Senior Brother Ye will be gone in the future, when you do things, don't think about whether this matter is right or not, think about whether this matter is worth it first." ”

"Do you remember?"

Ye Mao glanced up at Li Xin.

"What does Uncle Shi mean?"

Li Xin's face was calm.

"I mean, let's go out of the city to chase Cheng Ping, maybe it's not right."

"But it must be worth it."

Ye Mao didn't speak, but just reached out and touched his left shoulder, pulled out a small arrow on his left shoulder, and the blood suddenly came out, staining his shirt red.

"Uncle Shi's teachings, Ye Mao wrote them down."

The little grandfather of Chen Guogong's mansion bowed his head slightly and withdrew from Li Xin's room.

Jing Anhou looked at the blood stains dripping on the ground, then squatted down, took out a sweat towel, and slowly wiped the blood stains on the ground.

"Master Ye, what you asked me to teach Ye Mao, I should have already taught him."

"He can learn, which is a blessing for the Ye family."

"He can't learn, it's his own blessing......"

………………

Li Xin's side is happy, everyone is happy, but the people on the other side are not happy.

The remnants of Mianzhu's Pingnan Army had not yet returned to Jincheng, and the news of Mianzhu's destruction of the city had already reached the Pingnan General's Mansion in Jincheng one step ahead of them.

At this time, the general of Zhuguo, Li Shen, the Marquis of Pingnan of the imperial court, was busy working in his own mansion.

He's drying books.

Two generations of the Li family, all love to read, Li Zhijie when he entered Shu for eight years of hard fighting, still hand the volume, after breaking Jincheng, the collection of the Southern Han royal family was all taken by Li Zhijie as his own, hidden in the Pingnan General's Mansion.

Coupled with the collection of books of Li Zhijie and Li Shen, today's Pingnan General's Mansion has a collection of nearly 10,000 volumes, including many unique treasures that the Ji family does not have.

The books of this era are very precious, but they must also be carefully maintained, especially afraid of tides and insects, so they have to take them out to dry every once in a while.

Li Shen did it very seriously.

When he was eighteen years old in Chengde, he was forty-two years old, and now he is forty-four years old.

He took over as the Marquis of Pingnan sixteen years ago, that is, at the age of twenty-eight, and for the whole sixteen years since then, Li Shen has been busy with the Marquis of Pingnan's Mansion, and reading is one of his few personal hobbies, so he is very interested in these books.

During the dozen years he spent in the Southwest, these books accompanied him for most of his time.

It was a bit cold but the sun was shining.

Li Shen did not let outsiders interfere, but with Mrs. Yu, the two of them spread out these books one by one in the backyard and carefully flipped through them.

By noon, all the books were spread out in the backyard.

After this period of recuperation, Mrs. Yu's mental state is much better than when she was in the capital, although she still can't hear the word "Li Chun", but she is normal on weekdays.

"Ayu, it's almost finished."

A smile appeared on Li Shen's face: "Let's go to dinner." ”

Mrs. Yu answered, took Li Shen's hand and was about to go to the front hall for dinner.

Then, an uninvited guest barged in.

It was a staff general of the Pingnan Army, named Xu Zhen.

The general, who belongs to the middle and senior generals in the Pingnan Army, can barely be said to be a big man, but this Xu Zhen's body is trembling slightly at this moment.

He knelt down on one knee in front of Li Shen, bowed his head and clenched his fists, his voice trembling a little.

"Big ...... Checkmate. ”

Li Shen's face was calm, he reached out and patted Mrs. Yu's shoulder, and said softly: "Ayu, you go to the front and wait for me, and I will accompany you in a while." ”

Madam Yu glanced at Xu Zhen and finally nodded slowly.

"Okay, then you come over quickly."

Li Shen smiled slightly: "Okay, I'll go over after dealing with this matter." ”

Madame Jade paced away.

Li Shen helped Xu Zhen up and said in a deep voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"The Great General......

Xu Zhen swallowed and spit, his voice still shaking.

"Mianzhu...... The city is broken! ”

Li Shen's eyes widened suddenly, he grabbed Xu Zhen's placket, and shouted, "What did you say?" ”

"Mianzhu has broken the city!"

Xu Zhen gritted his teeth and said: "The news just now, on the night of two days ago, that Jing'an Marquis broke the gate of Mianzhu without knowing what to do, and then the people of the imperial court poured into the forbidden army, General Cheng supported it for a day and a night, but the other party was overwhelmed, and he was finally forced to withdraw from Mianzhu. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Zhen glanced at Li Shen cautiously, and then continued: "After General Cheng withdrew from Mianzhu, he was chased and killed by the people of the imperial court, and he had to divide the palace of 3,000 people, and there were nearly 20,000 defenders in Mianzhu, and less than 10,000 escaped, and they are now on their way back to Jincheng!" ”

The general of the Pillar Kingdom burst out with blue veins on his forehead.

"What about Cheng Pingren!"

Xu Zhen trembled and bowed his head.

"General Cheng, he ......"

"Killed in battle!"
