Yang Ze heard that the two princes who were extremely sloppy were ruthless and killed a son each, Yang Ze immediately didn't believe it, he thought that the Dugu Empress might not believe it either, but the Dugu Empress was unwilling to deal with these two princes, of course, maybe the Dugu Empress wanted to clean them up, but before she could do it, she died first.

Yang Ze thought to himself: "It is estimated that the two sons who claimed to have been killed are actually the most capable sons in the family, in order to protect them from being targeted by the Dugu Empress, so they claimed to have killed them, but in fact, these two sons must be alive and well!" ”

But when the generals listened to Yang Ze's question, they looked at each other, how could they know about the affairs of the prince's family, and shook their heads one after another, saying that they didn't know.

Yang Ze knew that they would have this kind of expression, so he heaved and said, "Taiyuan is too far away from here, and it is normal for you not to know the situation, but this king asked a little inexplicable." ”

Among the generals, some people who like to ponder things know about the family affairs of the two princes of Taiyuan, and they can almost guess that the two young princes are still alive, but they will not say what they guessed in their hearts, and some people are the prince's family affairs, which is about my, and they are also the princes of Taiyuan, so their family affairs are even less about my!

After sending the generals out, Yang Ze was left alone in the tent, and he pondered it carefully. This time I went to the border, did I really want to fight with Sudden Jue? This seems to be completely unnecessary, even if you want to fight, you don't have to do it yourself, but you have allies on the side of Tujue, just command your allies to do it, so that you can concentrate on dealing with the vassal king on the Taiyuan side.

But how to deal with those vassal kings in Taiyuan, this has to use your brains.

Yang Ze didn't pay attention to the matter of the army's expedition. Although there are many matters to go out to the army, but someone will do it, he doesn't have to worry about it, just take the left and right Shenwu army, let Gui Baohua go with him, and don't worry about other things, as long as he thinks about how to deal with those vassal kings in Taiyuan, those vassal kings are soft on the outside and rigid on the inside, it is estimated that it is very difficult to deal with.

Let's say that Wu Youren and Du have a big chin, early the next morning. Wu Youren asked people to carry a sedan chair and carried him to the outside of the courtyard where he went yesterday, Du Da's chin had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw him coming, he hurriedly opened the door and came out.

Du Da chin saw that behind Wu Youren's sedan chair, there was actually a horse, although it was not a tall mount, but it looked really gentle, and he didn't even need to lead it. As soon as the sedan chair left, the horse followed, and it seemed that it was well raised.

Wu Youren didn't get out of the sedan chair, but just opened the sedan curtain. said to Du Da chin: "Brother Du, this horse is specially prepared for you, you are a military general, you have to have a good horse, this horse is quite good." In the future, I will give you Brother Du as a mount! ”

Du Da's chin was overjoyed, and after thanking him, he rode on the horse behind. I found that this horse was indeed quite obedient, and it was estimated that it should be a castrated horse, which was suitable for people like him who could ride horses, but were not very skilled in riding.

A sedan chair and a ride, after walking for a short time, they arrived at the door of the East Palace.

Wu Youren got out of the sedan chair, looked around, and saw that the guards at the gate of the East Palace were staring at this side, and their eyes were not good, Wu Youren turned around and saw that Du Da's chin was also off the horse, so he said in a low voice: "These guards at the door may be Yang Ze's people." ”

Du Da's chin snorted several times, and he also whispered: "Then can I go in directly, I didn't wear the guard's clothes today, I heard that the imperial guards are checking very well now, I'm afraid that I am wearing a military uniform, in case I find my head, but it is not easy to explain, it will cause trouble for His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Wu Youren nodded and said, "Don't be impatient, wait here, let Brother Wei enter the palace, go and explain the matter to His Royal Highness the Prince, and then you go in again." ”

"Okay, Brother Wu will go early and come back early, and my brother is waiting for you here...... Let's go to the side and wait for you! Du Da chin hurriedly said, he saw the imperial guards at the gate of the East Palace coming, it seemed that they were going to check them, he hurriedly hid away.

Although Wu Youren was demoted, the privilege of walking in the East Palace was not withdrawn, so he could still enter the East Palace at this time, and the imperial guards did not embarrass him, he wanted to enter the East Palace, so he let him in.

After entering the palace gate, Wu Youren saw Li Chongjiu after a while. Li Chongjiu was still in a state of excitement at this time, he felt that he was finally going to be free, and he could finally leave Chang'an, this was the first time in his life that he wanted to leave Chang'an, and he also had military power, he didn't believe that after having military power, Yang Ze still dared to be arrogant in front of him.

Li Chongjiu said with a smile: "Brother Wu, you are here, how is the arrangement at home, let's set off together this time, and as soon as the guards sent from Taiyuan arrive, we will set off." ”

Hearing Li Chongjiu say this, Wu Youren said with a smile: "For the minister, I want to congratulate His Royal Highness the Prince, there is a good thing, and the minister wants to tell His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"There are good things again, what good things, tell me about it!" Li Chongjiu was overjoyed, only feeling that the past two days have been all good, it seems that he has come to work, and finally Jitai has come.

Wu Youren said: "The minister thought yesterday that the prince must be accompanied by a trustworthy person when he goes to Taiyuan this time, but the minister follows His Royal Highness the prince alone, and he is inevitably lonely, so the minister went all over the city to look for Du Guard, and finally found him!" ”

Li Chongjiu was slightly stunned at first, then laughed and said, "Found Du Youjing?" Well, how is Du Da's chin now, he wasn't caught by Yang Ze, right? ”

"Of course he wasn't caught, Du Da Chin was very shrewd, when something happened, he fled quickly, not only was he not caught, but he also found a lot of honest and reliable people, and it reached a hundred, all of them are strong heroes, all waiting to serve His Royal Highness the Prince!" Wu Youren said with a smile.

Li Chongjiu was overjoyed and said, "Du Da Chin really recruited someone?" Are those people really reliable? I really want to see it now! ”

He really needs a helper now, after Chi Ju'an died, he was the only one in such a huge East Palace, he was very worried that those little eunuchs and palace maids would harm him when he was sleeping, so he couldn't even sleep well at night. If he has a henchman, not to mention anything else, at least someone can stand guard for him when he sleeps, at least he doesn't need to worry about safety anymore.

Wu Youren said: "The people recruited by the Du guards have been seen by the ministers, and they are all good men, but they are from low backgrounds, so they don't know much about etiquette." Wei Chen heard that the palace was investigating the affairs of the imperial guards, and if they were allowed to enter the East Palace at this time, I was afraid that it would be ......" Speaking of this, he looked at Li Chongjiu.

Li Chongjiu's expression really became abnormal, he sent Chi Ju'an and Du Da Chin to scare Yang Ze, but Yang Ze was not frightened, but Chi Ju'an died, and the imperial guards were investigating the spies again, so he also felt that now was not a good time to let Du Da Chin bring people into the palace. But he really needed help.

Li Chongjiu said: "Then what should I do, do you want to go out of the palace alone to see them?" Even if you see them, how will you place them? The imperial guards are afraid that they will not be able to be the one, that is too attention-grabbing! You can think of a way for Lone! ”

Find a way. This is easy, but it is not easy to pretend to be an expression, so that others will appreciate it, Wu Youren turned dozens of circles in the main hall. Before Li Chongjiu was about to be stunned, he stopped and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince." The minister heard that Yang Ze organized a Tiance army, which was composed of those so-called generals and tigers in the Praetorian Guard, in fact, he was trying to win people's hearts, should His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also form a new guard? ”

When Li Chongjiu heard this, he was very interested, and said happily: "Can you be alone, just let the person recruited by Du Da Chin be the guard?" This is a good thing, that Lone really went out of the palace to meet them. ”

Wu Youren hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness is a daughter, how can he leave the palace lightly, in case he is harmed by a wicked person, wouldn't it be bad, or let the ministers go on a trip to get things done, and then let the guards enter the East Palace to protect His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Li Chongjiu nodded again and again, and said: "The matter of forming a new army will be handed over to Brother Wu, if you do it well, then you will be rewarded." ”

Wu Youren bowed and saluted, and said, "The minister must handle this matter well, and this afternoon, he will enter the palace again and give His Royal Highness the Crown Prince a satisfactory answer." ”

After that, he left the East Palace and went out to find Du Da Chin, Du Da Chin saw that he came out so quickly, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Wu, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want to see his junior brother?" ”

Wu Youren shook his head and said, "Of course, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to see you, Brother Du, but not now, at least until the afternoon, or evening." ”

Of course Du Da's chin was strange, why is this, doesn't the prince particularly want to recruit people, why is he postponing the meeting again.

Wu Youren said: "Brother Du, for your brother's sake. On the way to the palace, my brother thought, how can I get an official position for you, if you are still a royal guard, then I am afraid that you will not become a general, and being a captain is the pinnacle of your career. ”

Du Da chin heard this, and couldn't help laughing: "The little brother is just from a small person in the market, and he never even dreamed that he could get acquainted with a high-ranking official like Brother Wu, let alone serve His Royal Highness the Prince. However, Brother Wu, you think about the younger brother, and the younger brother is still very grateful. ”

Wu Youren patted him on the shoulder and said, "The captain I said for my brother can only become a captain after you have been a royal guard for ten or twenty years, but you are just a captain, why can't you become a captain now?" Therefore, for my brother, persuade His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to set up a new army, so that Brother Du, you will not be able to become a colonel and captain immediately, and you don't have to stay up for ten or twenty years! ”

Du Da chin scolded in his heart, it must be the prince's idea, but this old guy said that it was his idea, so he didn't believe what Wu Youren said! Besides, what is the use of being an official by Li Chongjiu's side, no matter how big it is, Li Chongjiu himself will be a dead man sooner or later, let alone others.

Du Da chin still pretended to be grateful, thanked him repeatedly, and asked Wu Youren about his next plan.

Wu Youren said with a smile: "Of course, let's go to see your good brothers together, and then let them dress neatly, and then go to see His Royal Highness the Prince, and buy them some horses, if they can walk around outside the East Palace, it is estimated that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be very happy, and it is indispensable to give some rewards to those brothers of yours." ”

Du Da's chin and eyes lit up, and he said, "Can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have a reward?" How many pieces can each person get? ”

Wu Youren laughed, he turned around and got into the sedan chair, and said: "No matter how many, there is a time when the flowers run out, if you want His Royal Highness the Prince to reward you, then my brother will definitely ask for a golden rice bowl for you, as long as this golden rice bowl is there, then you will never worry about spending money!" ”

"That's good, thank you Brother Wu!" Du Da chin pretended to be happy to flatter, mounted his horse, followed the sedan chair, and returned to the courtyard together.

Entering the courtyard, Wu Youren asked those heroes to come out together, first sent someone to the ready-to-wear shop, and bought back more than 100 sets of black clothes and pants, as well as black boots, no way, the ready-to-wear shop only has the most black clothes, dirty and wear-resistant, and the styles are almost the same, it is the only clothes that can be unified, and then there are white ready-to-wear clothes, but it is filial piety.

The heroes changed into uniform clothes and boots, and they looked quite presentable, but they had no weapons and no horses, so they didn't look imposing.

Wu Youren said: "You can all ride a horse, who can't ride a horse?" ”

Heroes no one squeaked, not all of them can ride horses, some have ridden mules, and some have even ridden donkeys, many people have only ridden cattle for a few days when they were children, but don't care if it's a horse or a mule, or a donkey or a cow, anyway, they are all big animals, if you want to ride them, you can ride them well, but whether you can ride them well or not, it is not necessarily.

Seeing that no one answered, Wu Youren said happily: "I can ride a horse, that's great!" ”

Suddenly, a hero raised his hand and said with embarrassment: "Lord Wu, the villain is very good at riding mules, but he hasn't ridden horses much, does this count as being able to ride?" ”

Wu Youren thought for a while, and he said: "Mules are more difficult to ride than horses, since you can ride a mule well, you must also be able to ride a good horse, so you can be regarded as able to ride." ”

This time the heroes really didn't squeak, some people thought: "Mules are more difficult to ride than horses, I have never ridden a horse, nor have I ridden a mule, but I have ridden a donkey, if you want to say that the most difficult thing to ride, shouldn't it be a donkey, stubborn donkey stubborn donkey is not called in vain, I can even ride a donkey well, let alone a horse." ”

Some heroes thought to themselves: "If you want to talk about big animals, the biggest is of course a cow, I have even ridden a cow, not to mention the horse, it must be able to ride well." ”

As a result, no one said that they couldn't ride horses, and Wu Youren said: "In that case, let's go to the horse market and buy one for each person...... A horse, first ride to the vicinity of the East Palace, then I ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to climb the palace wall, see your heroic posture, as long as you can make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince happy, then you can be on the rise. ”

Wu Youren already has his own plan, he must let this new army get involved with him, use this new army as an experiment, and build more new troops in the future. (To be continued......)
