Chapter 782 Punishing the heart every word!

To be honest, Shen Yi was a little angry.

Anyone who is so serious about the yin and yang will feel a little angry in his heart.

But getting angry is useless, Master Shen quickly calmed down, he looked at Zhao Lu quietly, and said, "General Zhao, are you so sure that I can't keep Huai'an?"

Zhao Lu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled dumbly.

Immediately afterwards, he seemed to have heard something very funny, and laughed several times in a row before looking back at Shen Yi.

"It seems that brother Shen didn't understand what I just said."

"I just said that Northern Qi will definitely attack Huai'an."

Zhao Lu looked calm, and said slowly: "The meaning of storming Huai'an is that even if my Huaihe navy guards here, we will need to dispatch reinforcements urgently in order to hold it."

He looked at Shen Yi and asked, "Brother Shen, where are your reinforcements?"

General Zhao pointed to his nose, and the smile on his face subsided: "You can't count on me, the Huaihe Navy, to be your reinforcements?"

These words made Shen Yi feel a little depressed.

Because the army that also belongs to Chen, logically speaking, if Huai'an is in an emergency, the Huaihe navy must come to rescue, but it is obvious that General Zhao has no intention of coming to rescue Shen Yi.

Because compared to the family, the country, and the life and death of the people in Huai'an Prefecture, of course the status of his Zhao family, and the future of the Zhao family is more important.

If Shen Yi can't keep Huai'an, or even lose Huai'an soon, it means that the Huaihe Navy's position in the court is irreplaceable.

His position as the Zhao family is also irreplaceable.

At that time, the Zhao Clan will really "share weal and woe with the country" and be prosperous for generations!
As long as Chen Guo is there, the Zhao family will not be defeated, nor will they be defeated.

Seeing that Shen Yi was silent, Zhao Lu stood by the window, pointed at the scenery outside the window, smiled and said, "Brother Shen, come and see."

"This building is called Wanghuai Tower. Although you can't see the Huaihe River, you can see almost the entire city of Huai'an."

"Come and take a look."

General Zhao's face was warm, as if he was talking to a good friend, with a faint smile on his face.

"Maybe in a few days, I won't be able to see it."

Shen Yi frowned.

This Da Chen's Marquis of Anping did seem to have read a lot of books, and he really has a hand in disgusting people.

Ordinary young people, when he said this, most of them have been so angry that they have lost their minds, and they will say things that are not in their heads.

But Shen Yi didn't.

Although he is not very old, he has experienced a lot over the years, and now he is able to keep calm in the face of many things.

He silently walked to the window, glanced at the scenery of Huai'an below, then turned his head to look at Zhao Lu, who was about the same height as him, and frowned slightly: "Your Majesty invited me, do you have anything else to say?"

"Naturally there is."

Zhao Lu pointed to the chair and said calmly, "Brother Shen, don't worry, let's talk slowly."

Shen Yi sat down quietly and looked up at Zhao Lu.

He wanted to see what this Anpinghou was going to do.

After Shen Yi was seated, Zhao Lu sat opposite to Shen Yi, poured a cup of tea for Shen Yi, then sighed slowly, and said, "To tell the truth, Brother Shen, this Huai'an Mansion has been here since I was a child."

"When I was a teenager, my eldest father brought me here."

"Later, when I got older, my father would often bring me here."

"This city of Huai'an has some feelings for me."

"The reason why I am here, waiting for you, brother Shen, is to hand over the defense of Huai'an Mansion to you on the one hand, and on the other hand..."

"I don't want this city to be destroyed."

Shen Yi looked at Zhao Lu quietly, and asked, "So?"

"So, Mr. Zhao has a plan, tell him to Brother Shen."

Zhao Lu sat in his seat, took a sip of tea, and said quietly: "The Huaihe defense in Huai'an will be handed over to you normally. When the Qi people attack, the Huaihe navy will come to rescue normally. Afterwards Brother Shen, you wrote a letter to the imperial court, saying that the Northern Qi Dynasty was fierce, and the Huaihe defense line needed a backbone to take over the overall situation, so you asked the Huaihe Navy to take over the officers and soldiers of the coastal capital."

"By the time…"

Zhao Lu looked calm, and said: "When the time comes, I will give you the military exploits that should be distributed to Brother Shen, and I will distribute them to you. The military exploits that should be distributed to you, the coastal capital, will not be missing you, even Huai'an." The line of defense can still be handed over to you to guard."

"Our Huaihe River is one, and the people of Qi naturally have no chance to take advantage of it."

Seeing Shen Yi frowning, Zhao Lu continued, "I know what you're thinking, brother Shen. You're just worried that His Majesty will blame you."

"Don't worry, I've already thought up the words for you."

"Just say..."

Zhao Lu coughed, and said, "Just say that with [-] lone troops, the enemy is attacking with all their strength, and it is impossible to defend anyway."

"The [-] coastal divisions can't do it, and the [-] Huaihe navy can't do it."

"For the sake of the family, the country, and the overall situation of the court, you have to grit your teeth and make the entire Huaihe River one."

"Thus…"

He looked at Shen Yi and said, "In this way, brother Shen, although you lose your prospect of leading the army, it will not hinder your future as an official. You can still go back to Jiankang and be your civil servant."

Speaking of this, General Zhao said with a smile: "You are a second-class Jinshi, Hanlin bachelor, why do you work so hard, and come out to hang out with those picky military households?"

Zhao Lu sat down, took a sip of tea, and said slowly, "For the sake of the country, the country, the people of Huai'an Prefecture, the entire Huaihe River, your own future, Brother Shen, and the lives and future of the [-] officers and men of the coastal capital..."

General Zhao looked at Shen Yi quietly.

"Brother Shen is thinking about it?"

Shen Yi stood up silently and walked to the window. He glanced at Huai'an City, which was almost in full view, then turned his head silently, looked at Zhao Lu who was sitting on the chair, and said, "Master, if Shen is willing to steal People from An didn't even know how to go to the southeast, let alone Huai'an mansion."

Zhao Lu smiled dumbly.

"What does it mean to live with it? What does it mean to steal peace?"

He looked at Shen Yi, and said quietly: "Brother Shen's words are suspected of slandering the past emperors."

Shen Yi took a deep breath, looked at Zhao Lu, and said, "Master Hou, you only want to stick to the family business. I can understand this. After all, you are already at this age, and you want to live up to the legacy of your ancestors while thinking of living up to the legacy of your ancestors. While thinking about leaving something for future generations.”

"But in the world, not everyone is like you, Lord Hou, who only thinks about being successful."

"At least Shen is not."

"so…"

Zhao Lu walked to Shen Yi's side, stood side by side with Shen Yi by the window, looked out of the window together, and said lightly: "So for the sake of a little ambition in the heart of young people, brother Shen will put hundreds of thousands of people in Huai'an to In dire straits?"

"It's obviously doomed to fail, but just for the selfishness in your heart, Shen Langzhong, you want to gamble with the lives of hundreds of thousands of people and [-] officers and men of the coastal capital?"

Having said that, Zhao Lu shook his head slightly and said, "You scholars."

"Sometimes the heart is really cruel."

"Harder than anyone else."

Shen Yi narrowed his eyes, and said slowly: "Master Hou doesn't need to say such false words, if Lord Hou really cared about the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Huai'an, he wouldn't use them to blackmail me at this time. "

"But wait until the Qi people come to attack, and lead the Huaihe Navy to come to support without hesitation!"

Shen Yi looked at Zhao Lu with sharp eyes.

"Will Master Hou come to rescue?"

Zhao Lu was stunned.

He stared at the scenery of Huai'an in the distance, then shook his head slowly.

He turned his head to look at Shen Yi and laughed at himself.

"Brother Shen, it seems that you and I are the same kind, and we will trade the wealth and lives of countless people in exchange for our own future."

"For this sake, there is nothing more to say."

General Zhao turned around and left with his hands behind his back.

"Then I wish you, brother Shen."

He paused, then strode away.

"For the rest of my life, I can sleep peacefully."
