When Mu Ying returns to Beijing with his troops, the military exploits of the Southwest Department will reach their peak, and when Li Xin and others will prepare everything in the capital, at that time, it will naturally be the time for the world to change their surnames.

At this point in time, it is not Li Xinding, but the current situation is like this, and it is a matter of course.

After Mu Ying returned to Beijing, the people of the Southwest Department would participate in the "persuasion" team, and Li Xin had to face up to these demands of his subordinates.

The position of the Son of Heaven is supreme, to say that Li Xin has nothing to say about this position, it is to talk nonsense with his eyes open, he is a young marquis, it is not that he has not tasted the sweetness of power, and he will naturally have some thoughts about the position of the Son of Heaven, otherwise he would not have come to this point, but at this moment, if he can do whatever he wants, Li Xin may not take the initiative to sit on the throne.

Of course, it is too hypocritical to say this now, and the reasons why things have developed to this point today are complex, and it is not clear in one or two sentences.

After hearing the exact time given by Li Xin, Ye Lu was silent for a while, and then said, "Is there anything you need the Ye family's help with?" ”

"The Ye family has already helped me a lot."

Li Xin smiled and said: "Ye Mao has been guarding the north for more than half a year, and he has helped me a lot, otherwise I won't be able to take care of the north in the capital, and there will be a big mess in Jiangbei." ”

"Guarding the land and the people is within the Ye family's responsibility."

Speaking of this, Ye Lan paused for a moment and continued: "At the beginning, half of the disaster in Jiangbei was in Xianbei, and the other half was in ...... Yunzhou City, now that Xianbei has fallen, Chang'an you ...... What to do with Yunzhou? ”

Yunzhou farming, for Li Xin, is indeed a very difficult problem to deal with.

First of all, the Yunzhou Army, which has been operated by the seed family for decades, has long been called the Yunzhou Army by the outside world, and it is almost impossible to take the military power of Yunzhou from them, but the seed family has indeed offended Li Xin, and Li Xin cannot let the northern Xinjiang continue to maintain the old state, guarded by the two seed and leaf families.

Now, Ye Mao is about to set up the Anbei Protectorate in the north, the Xianbei people are defeated, and the strategic position of the Yunzhou Army has plummeted, so Ye Lan will have this question.

"Farming is a hidden danger in the north."

The smile on Li Xin's face retracted, and he snorted: "If it weren't for the kind of martial arts who led the troops back to Yunzhou in time and continued to guard Yunzhou City, even if I paid some price at this time, I would have to send troops to Yunzhou to settle old accounts with the seed family, but the seed family has already surrendered, and although I did too much, I didn't cross the line, and for a while, I was not very good at dealing with them." ”

Governor Li Dadu smiled bitterly: "At this time, when I used troops in Yunzhou, outsiders wanted to say that I crossed the river and demolished the bridge, although the farmer never used me as a bridge. ”

Ye Lan nodded and said slowly: "At this time, it is indeed not good to use troops against Yunzhou, but if the hard one is not good, it can be soft, if Chang'an can trust me, this matter can be handed over to the Ministry of War." ”

Ye Shangshu's face was serious: "As long as the family does not rebel, the Yunzhou army will be hollowed out by the imperial court within five years." ”

Li Xin was stunned at first, and then slapped his thigh: "I have also been a secretary of the military department for several years, but I actually forgot about the military department!" ”

There are four functions in the military department, the most important of which is called the military selection department, also known as the military department, which is mainly responsible for the personnel work of the military generals.

Ye Luan's meaning is obvious, through the Ministry of War to send generals to the Yunzhou Army, if the breeder does not accept, then it is a rebellion against the imperial court and a blatant rebellion, if the breeder accepts, then in a few years, the Yunzhou Army will no longer be a breeder army.

Although the old general presided over the defense of the capital, because there was an army of 100,000 people thousands of miles away, Li Xin did not embarrass him, and only put him under house arrest in the capital.

The Yunzhou Army is now the eldest son of the Chongwu family, and the character of the Chongwu is not as strong as his father, and most of them will accept the soft knife of the military department.

Li Dadu pondered for a while, and then said: "Then do it, the military department will first send a general of four or five grades to Yunzhou to see what the reaction of the Chong family is, and senior brother, you will also send a letter to Chong Wu privately to explain the situation to him." ”

"I only take the right to take the army, not kill people."

Li Xin said in a deep voice: "If the seed family hands over the military power of the Yunzhou army, the seed family will have a hereditary marquis title, and it will also be the general in the capital in the future, but it can't lead an army by itself like before." ”

Ye Lan bowed his head slightly, and said, "Wait for tomorrow, the military department will do it." ”

When Ye Sishao said this, he hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "This is a big event that changes the world, Chang'an, you ...... Be thoughtful, but also be thoughtful, once something goes wrong, the disaster is not small. ”

It took Li Xin more than two years to balance the relationship between these vested interests and the southwestern family, but there are some vested interests that cannot be balanced.

For example, people with the surname Ji, for example, relatives of the emperor, and then for example, the descendants of the Ji royal family.

The interests of these people can only be guaranteed by the emperor's surname Ji, so once the dynasty changes, these people will definitely not live in peace.

Li Xin smiled and said: "Senior brother, don't worry, I am ready to prepare, even if there are some omissions, as long as there is no chaos in the capital, there will be no big problem, there will be some chaos in the place, and it will not take long to calm down." ”

He stood up from the chair, pulled Ye Lan's sleeve, and said with a smile: "I've been quite bored at home these days, senior brother came just in time, I'll let the family get some side dishes, how many drinks do you and my brother have?" ”

Ye Lan was already nearly half a hundred years old at this time, but he still had the free and easy air of Ye Sishao at the beginning, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Dare to disobey."

………………

When the two brothers were drinking, it was not very peaceful in the capital.

In a side hall in Weiyang Palace, the Empress Dowager Xie, who was described as a little haggard, was pulling her young son to speak, this queen of Taikang Tianzi was no longer slightly plump as before, and repeated changes made her lose a lot of weight, and the spirit of the whole person declined.

"Ying'er."

"Someone sent a message to the palace today."

Empress Dowager Xie took her young son's hand and said in a quiet tone.

"They said that all the soldiers and horses at the gates of the capital have been replaced, and the people of the Southwest Army have taken over the capital."

She looked at her thirteen-year-old son, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Li Thief should be plotting soon, your eldest brother has already gone, you ......"

She couldn't control it anymore and couldn't stop crying: "You're only thirteen years old. ”

At this time, there were only two people in the side hall, mother and son, and after Yankang Tianzi was silent for a long time, he took his mother's hand and said, "A-Niang, Li ...... The letter said that he would give his son a way out. ”

"He also told your father that he would be a Jinchen forever for the rest of his life!"

Empress Dowager Xie wiped her tears with a handkerchief, gritted her teeth and said, "It's only to blame your father for his untimely death, otherwise how could he bully our orphans and widows like this!" ”

The Son of Yankang was silent.

Although Li Xin promised him, but now he is not sure whether he can survive this accident, seeing his mother so sad, the young son of heaven is also a little sentimental in his heart, he stepped forward to hug his mother, and tears were left in his eyes.

"A-Niang, at this time, people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat, we can't resist."

"Let's wait for Li Changan to kill."
