Xie An raised his head, glanced at Xie Ling, and said faintly: "If I say that I don't have any reason, it's just intuition, do you believe it!" ”

Xie Ling was silent.

In Xie Ling's eyes, his father has always been a person who plans and then acts, and his caution is a little too much, and he is not sure that he will never speak, but as long as he speaks, he will definitely be completely sure.

And Xie An often told Xie Ling that this world can be prescribed, most things can be predicted, speculated, and therefore certain, and Xie Ling has also developed the habit of relying on evidence and logic to speak and do things.

But today, his respected father told her that all this was unfounded by him, just intuition.

Xie An saw that Xie Ling's expression was entangled, and he didn't explain, but said: "You may not believe it, it's no wonder, but if you look at it, Liu Yu will definitely win!" ”

Xie Ling said: "If the slave wins the battle on the front line, it is also a good thing, why is my father worried!" ”

That's right, this is the key to the matter, Xie An also admires the intelligence of his daughter, and often regrets it, why is this daughter so good, but it is a daughter, and there are a bunch of his own sons, but such as Xie Yan, compared to Xie Ling, is really a heaven and an underground.

It's a pity that such a good daughter will marry someone after all, marry someone else, Xie An sighed in his heart, and said: "Liu Yu's current difficult situation, the enemy knows, we know, then he himself knows better, if in such a situation, he can win, tell me, what will happen?" ”

Xie Ling's expression became a little frightened and a little incredulous, but she had to admit that her father was scheming, because what he said was undoubtedly right, and she couldn't find a reason to refute it.

"Once he wins this battle, Liu Yu will undoubtedly have control over most of the main forces of the Beifu Army, not to mention ......" Xie An paused and said: "You also know that this time, Liu Yu recruited a large number of scholars from all over the country to go north, and placed them in the local area along the way, as local officials, when you told me about this matter, it was already a fait accompli, and we had no way and would not stop it!" ”

"Father......" Xie Ling tried to explain, but saw Xie An waving his hand gently.

"No need to explain!" Xie An smiled: "You will do this, it is also a matter of course, since I didn't stop you at that time, it means that I will at least approve of it at that time!" ”

Xie Ling breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Xie An became serious again, and said: "However, you should know the consequences of doing this, now that Liu Yu has his own team, there are these scholars in the civil officials, they must be a group of grassroots officials who are absolutely loyal to Liu Yu in the future, and the generals will definitely follow him in the future, you have to be mentally prepared!" ”

Xie Ling nodded silently, she understood what Xie An meant.

Due to various opportunities, due to various other things, Liu Yu has gradually become the climate, and there is a great tendency to dominate the guests, but in the past, it has always been the Xie family who supported Liu Yu, and the Beifu Army is also the ban of the Xie family to a certain extent, if Liu Yu successfully rises and becomes a separate force, then the Xie family does have to think carefully about the future.

Xie An saw that Xie Ling's brows were tightly locked, and he didn't want to blame her anymore, so he smiled and said: "Okay, the soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth, no matter what, Liu Yu is a kind person, and he is also a grateful person, you don't have to worry too much!" ”

"Father, it's Ling'er who doesn't think it through!" Xie Ling still sincerely apologized.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Xie An shrugged: "By the way, there has been no news in the northwest recently!" ”

Xie An said this, which can be regarded as a diversion of the topic, lest Xie Ling blame himself too much, the Xie family's intelligence system has always been in charge of Xie Ling, so it is routine for Xie An to ask this.

Xie Ling thought for a while and said: "Now Liangzhou is very peaceful, this month, Lu Guang feasted guests in Guzang to celebrate his birthday, officials at all levels in Liangzhou gathered in Guzang, I think there is nothing to do in the officialdom for the time being!" ”

"What about Duan Ye? Isn't that young man funny! Xie An smiled.

"Him!" At the mention of Duan Ye, Xie Ling became serious again.

"What's wrong?" Xie An was a little puzzled: "Isn't this young man the Dunhuang Taishou now, I heard that he is not doing it well!" ”

"That's right, Father!" Xie Ling thought about it, but still took out a silk silk from his sleeve, handed it to Xie An, and said, "Father, you see, these are briefings from people from Liangzhou, mainly Duan Ye's actions in Dunhuang!" ”

Xie An took it with some doubts, opened it and looked at it, and couldn't take his eyes off it.

It took a long time for Xie An to close the silk silk, you know, people of Xie An's level have very strong reading skills, even if it is a thousand words, they can find the key point very well, ten lines at a glance, but this time, during the whole process, Xie An was almost engrossed in looking at the briefing. Although there are only a few hundred words on it, through this briefing, Xie An seems to see the Duan Ye in Dunhuang where the commander's subordinates are in full swing, and Dunhuang County, which is changing every day.

During the whole process, Xie Ling waited patiently and did not speak.

"Okay!" Xie An smiled bitterly: "I also said before that there has been no talent for thirty years, but now it's good, the world's talents, there are two of them all at once!" ”

Xie Ling knows this allusion, saying that back then, the young Xie An and Huan Wen talked about the world, and at that time, the two young people also learned from the ancients to comment on the heroes of the world, Wang Meng, themselves, Murong Chui, are naturally the most favored people, and others, Huan Wen and Xie An, two people who think very highly of themselves, always feel that they can't get into their eyes.

And as they expected, these people have unexpectedly become people who are enough to influence the general trend of the world.

After that, Xie An also wanted to discover more talents for the country, but looking for them, there are indeed people like Liu Gaozhi who are thousands of miles away, but the kind of people who are enough to prosper the country and change the sky in one fell swoop are never seen again.

But? From that piece of silk, Xie An saw it, and he was intuitively convinced that this Duan Ye once again refreshed his previous expectations for him, and a small Dunhuang City made Duan Ye make a pattern of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.

"Father...... You see it! This section of the industry...... It's scarier than we thought! Xie Ling sorted out the wording and said carefully.

"Terrible!" Xie An raised his eyebrows, and suddenly seemed to have caught something, and said with a smile: "No, no, he's not scary, not scary at all, hahahaha!" ”

Seeing Xie An suddenly laughing, Xie Ling didn't know what was wrong? I was a little surprised.

"Hmm!" Xie An pondered it carefully and said, "Ling'er, are you also worried that if this Duan Ye develops too much and rises too high, I'm afraid it won't be a good thing for us!" ”

"Hmm!" Xie Ling nodded.

"Now, in this way, from now on, we will go all out to help Duan Ye!" Xie An said firmly.

"Help him!" Xie Ling was a little puzzled.

"Yes, help him!" Xie An nodded: "You must have a way to contact him!" Well, he's just a county guard now, this young man. Although bold, there are many ideas, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, I think there must be a lot of things I want to do, he can't do it, well, at this time, it's time for us to work, in short, you remember, he wants people, we give people, he asks for money, we give him money, he wants things, we give him things, except for the really embarrassed, otherwise, you can make the decision, don't have to tell me! ”

Xie Ling was shocked, she didn't understand why her father was suddenly so concerned about this Duan Ye, she asked tentatively: "Why?" ”

"Hehehe!" Xie An smiled: "Eggs, you can't put them in one basket!" ”

Xie Ling understood, she said in a low voice: "Ling'er understands, Ling'er obeys!" ”

Xie An's meaning is also obvious, Liu Yu's current momentum has a tendency to get out of control, once Liu Yu completely becomes the climate, at least for the Xie family, it is not a good thing, even if Xie An treats Liu Yu as his own, he has never had any other views because of the family or other factors, but it is human nature, he always dislikes Liu Yu and finally overwhelms the Xie family.

And at this time, the rise of Duan Ye is like sleepiness meeting a pillow, which is too timely.

The Xie family now chooses to devote resources to Duan Ye, and the reason is very simple, they hope to make Duan Ye strong as much as possible, and when the time comes, they will be able to form a counterbalance with Liu Yu.

And unlike Liu Yu, Duan Ye had no relationship with the Xie family before, and he had no relationship with the Jiangnan Gate Lords clan, basically there was no foundation, old age, and influence here, even if he grows, he will not be able to fight back for a while.

Besides, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, if Liu Yu and Duan Ye both grow to a certain extent, sooner or later they will clash instead of uniting, Xie An and Xie Ling are very sure of this.

Logically speaking, Xie An's method is very safe, gentle and effective, but Xie Ling has some inexplicable sadness in his heart.

Because everything, after all, is still gradually going along this road she doesn't want, even if before, they were intimate, and one day, interests will overcome all these feelings, and let family and country replace friendship and affection.

This may be the sorrow of the rich and noble!

Xie An walked out with his hands behind his back at this time, and at the same time said quietly: "There are some things that you can't help yourself as a father, and you can't help yourself, you should be understandable!" ”

Xie Ling just whispered: "My daughter knows!" ”

"Alas!" Xie An turned around: "I can only guarantee that I will do it as gently as possible, and try not to tear my face as much as possible, even if there is a day, I will try my best to live up to him, and other ...... It's hard! ”

Xie Ling saw that Xie An's face was full of exhaustion, and he also knew that making this decision was also painful for Xie An, who would want to do this.
