Chapter 1168

Wei Wuji didn't say anything, but Yu Kuang knew he guessed right.As early as when Xu Beiyou first hung the seal of the Great General of Pinglu, some clues of Her Royal Highness's intentions were already visible, and there were no more than three reasons.First, Xu Beiyou has this ability, and he did rely on Xu Beiyou's own strength to stabilize the situation in the south of the Yangtze River, which is well-deserved.Second, Xu Beiyou is the closest and most trusted person of His Royal Highness the eldest princess. After all, he is still the person next to her pillow, which is incomparable to others.As for the third point, the consideration is even more far-reaching, because Her Royal Highness the eldest princess and the emperor's son-in-law are a family, if this earth-shattering military achievement falls into the hands of the emperor's son-in-law, no matter how much reward is given, it will be fat and water. However, if Tian Tian falls into the hands of outsiders, he will not be given the name of a king with a different surname, and will become a hidden danger to the court. Therefore, it is most reasonable for Xu Beiyou to be the leader of the Jiangnan army.

There was silence between the two, no one spoke for a long time, only the sound of the cold wind blowing, the temperature and the atmosphere became colder.

After a long time, Wei Wuji said slowly: "You and I both know that the imperial court has almost emptied the family property, from Her Royal Highness the eldest princess down to ordinary people, they are all living in tight clothes, and they are counting on us to pacify Jiangnan as soon as possible." , to use the financial resources of Jiangnan, which is rich in money and food, to alleviate the deficit of the imperial treasury, and then fully support the Northwest War, pacify the grasslands, and even fight all the way to the Golden Tent Royal Court. Under such circumstances, our side delays every day , the imperial court will have to spend an extra 20 taels of military expenditure, if it is in peacetime, it is not a big deal, but in the present, it is like a blunt knife cutting flesh, it is unbearable."

Yu Kuang sighed softly, and said: "A short-term war may depend on the general's ability to lead the army, but in a protracted war, the role of the general will not be so great. In the final analysis, it is still a matter of family background, whose money and food More, who can delay longer, this is the root of victory, this is also the reason why the court is eager to resolve the Jiangnan war, in the end it is money and food."

Wei Wuji stretched out his palm, as if wanting to catch the cold wind from between his fingers, and said with emotion: "It is precisely because Her Royal Highness the Princess and the princes of the court understand this truth that they entrust Xu Beiyou with a heavy responsibility. Mr. Jiangling once said, Employing people is the most important thing in doing great things, as long as you use the right people, half of the work will be done."

Yu Kuang said with a smile: "It seems that we are ready to meet General Xu."

Wei Wuji clenched his five fingers into fists, took a deep breath, seemed to want to suppress the not-so-strong depression in his heart, and smiled, "The country cannot be without a master for a day, and the current Daqi court has masters and no masters." , said there is a master, because there is His Royal Highness the eldest princess who teaches the government, she is the real master. Saying no master is because the position of the emperor is vacant, and there is no nominal master. So if nothing unexpected, this war After the end, Her Royal Highness the Princess will take advantage of the great prestige brought by the war to ascend the throne logically and become the second female emperor in history, and also the first female emperor of our Great Qi Dynasty."

Yu Kuang's expression was a bit complicated.

Because he is the former residence of Xiao Bai, Emperor Gaozongsu of the Great Qi Dynasty, and he is also a man of Conglong. What?It's not that Xiao Bai ascended the throne in the future, so he can go further as an old minister of the hidden residence.In fact, this is also the case. After Xiao Bai was established as the prince, he became the military governor of the five left governors. Then when Xiao Bai ascended the throne, he was very likely to become the third governor after Wei Jin.

It's just that the weather is unpredictable, and who would have thought that Xu Xiaobai would die suddenly. After several turbulences of the civil and military nobles of the Manchu Dynasty, the clan princes even withered away.As a result, Han Xuan took control of the power of the imperial court. With Han Xuan's full support, Xiao Zhinan, who was originally insignificant, took control of the power of political training. After that, Han Xuan's health deteriorated and he gradually faded out of the temple. The conflict, with an extremely smooth situation, completed the smooth transfer of the highest power.

This series of dizzying twists and turns made Yu Kuang sigh in his heart, it really is fate.

Yu Kuang suddenly thought of a question and asked, "If the King of Wei took the initiative to attack and the general hadn't arrived in the south of the Yangtze River at this time, what should we do?"

Wei Wuji turned his head to look at him, and said slowly: "Then we can only fight."

……

In Jiange of Shuzhou, Lan Yu walked out slowly from the camp and stood in the yard with her hands behind her back.

Looking at the thin layer of falling snow on the ground, he suddenly realized that it was almost the end of the new year, and then remembered an interesting incident from previous years.

At that time, Da Qi had not yet won the world, and had not even entered the customs. Hundreds of thousands of cavalry entrenched in the northwest territory, surrounded the central capital, and watched the central plains.At that time, Xiao Yu and Lin Yinping were both young and energetic. In all fairness, Xiao Yu was not a person who feared guilt, but Lin Yinping was not the kind of gentle person who would care for a husband and teach a child, so the two often quarreled endlessly because of many trivial matters. The most serious one happened to be during the New Year's Eve. Xiao Yu had just returned to Zhongdu from Huzhou and was exhausted physically and mentally. Lin Yinping was also pregnant and irritable. The two quarreled for some reason, probably because they were women Because of being weak but being a mother is strong, in this battle between husband and wife, Lin Yinping became more and more courageous and did not fall behind, and Xiao Yu refused to give in, so most of them were not at peace. She came out together with Xiao Yue, Xiao Jin persuaded her elder brother, Xiao Yue persuaded her sister-in-law, and then persuaded the two of them, which Lan Yu still remembers vividly.

What made him even more hilarious was that Xiao Jin said after the event, "When it's Chinese New Year, a slut is hypocritical", which made him unforgettable for the rest of his life.

At this moment, Sapphire suddenly looked up.

His expression was fairly calm, but there was an imperceptible solemnity in his eyes.

Dressed in Tsing Yi, he appeared out of nowhere above the Jiange camp, looking down on Lan Yu.

Lan Yu said slowly: "The honored guest has come from afar, and Lan Yu is welcome from afar."

The young Taoist in Tsing Yi said indifferently: "You came here without warning, you are an uninvited guest, what do you mean by being unwelcome?"

Lan Yu smiled, "Then what's the matter with the Master Teacher coming here?"

The Taoist in Tsing Yi is the real person Qiu Ye, the head teacher of the Taoist sect, but he is not the deity himself, but one of the three incarnations outside the body. His eyes are indifferent. The Qi court has nothing to do with it anymore, so why do you have to swim in the muddy waters of Daqi again?"

Lan Yu said nonchalantly, "Although the old man is no longer Da Qi's chief assistant in the cabinet, he is still Da Qi's grand master, ranking first among the three lords. How can it be said that the old man has nothing to do with Da Qi? Besides, Now, Xiao Xuan has always been the old man's student, and you cannot escape the blame for his death."

The old man calmly said: "So no matter what your purpose of coming today is, this old man wants to persuade you, don't be stubborn."
