The perfect brother-in-law reborn

In Yang Lie's study room, Chu Nan was squatting on a chair, eating all kinds of unnamed melons and fruits, but he was not timid in the face of the murderous old fox.

Yang Lie folded his hands like an old farmer, his thin body was very uncoordinated on the large mahogany chair.After looking at Chu Nan for a long time, Yang Lie grinned, showing his rotten teeth, and said, "Boy, how is your relationship with Meier these days?"

Chu Nan is more than 19 years old this year, but for some reason, he started to grow teeth again recently. The pain was severe, and he said vaguely: "Uh, I told you a long time ago that your granddaughter doesn't like me. A toad is better than a swan. It doesn't fit."

Yang Lie waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "Who said that? I think you two are fine."

Chu Nan grinned and snorted a few times, but still didn't say anything.

The old fox of the Yang family frowned and said: "Others don't know what you have done for three years, but you can't hide it from me. But after coming back for more than a year, you can't do anything famous except go shopping in brothels and drink flower wine." , at least let me have an explanation to the Yang family."

Like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, Chu Nan jumped up and yelled strangely: "You are so old, why are you investigating me? I told you at the beginning that I was just a good-for-nothing to eat and wait to die, but you just didn't listen. I let Li Ling be such a good grandson-in-law, and now I am blaming me for not living up to my expectations!"

Yang Lie also stared at the bull's-eye, and said in a rough voice: "You bastard, you don't dare to yell at me like that! Do you think I don't know that Li's baby is a good seed? Shit! That muddy water in the royal family How could it be so easy? I don't want to make fun of the lives of hundreds of people in the Yang family, isn't the example of the Shen family who was in full swing in those days not enough?"

Chu Nan curled his lips and muttered, "Don't worry about me, I've messed up my seniority."

Yang Lie looked at Chu Nan who refused to eat, and sighed naively: "The doll of the Li family really made a big splash in Mobei. Last year, it snowed heavily on the grasslands, and several livestock froze to death, but she was held down by that doll and dared not do what she did in previous years." Come to the border to fight grassland. The month before last was even more remarkable. The three wars brought the battle line to the border of the barbarians. The last time they counterattacked and entered the grassland was a matter of the emperor’s time." , and then sighed: "The more outstanding the Li family baby is, the more I am annoyed. Everyone in the Yang family, including Meier, dare not say anything. Who doesn't call me stupid in my heart."

Seeing that someone praised Li Ling again, Chu Nan couldn't help but feel a little sour, and said with disdain, "What kind of credit is Li Ling? No matter how many people kill, remove the water added by himself, the barbarian cannon fodder, and the border people who killed by mistake. What are the main forces of the Hu people? Since the Hundred Clans Alliance of the Hu people, the barbarians in Daliang’s mouth have also grown a lot. Now that all these years have passed, it would be ridiculous to regard them as barbarians who just murdered and set fire. As for this time Daliang sent his troops northward and broke into the grasslands, apart from the credit of the soldiers, most of the reasons for the barbarian deliberately releasing water are also there."

Yang Lie looked at Chu Nan who was so jealous, he didn't point it out, and played with his taste: "Oh, there is such a theory? What's the reason?"

Chu Nan was stunned by the old fox's deep eyes, and said to himself: "Well, I was just thinking about it. But now I have seen Turwin, the golden wolf king of the barbarians, and it is far from enough to describe him. There is really a reason, I I just think of two, the first one is obviously to pull the battlefield to the grassland, and let the soldiers of Liang Liang come out of the city with high food and sufficient food. Familiar environment. Second, it’s the trick of that old ghost Turvin. It’s very simple to use Daliang’s soldiers to press down on the land to eliminate differences of opinion among various ethnic groups, consolidate power and eliminate dissidents... Well, old ghost, Why are you looking at me with such weird eyes?"

Yang Lie stroked his gray beard, and sighed, "I thought you were just making a living in the Western Regions, but I didn't know that you were also related to the barbarian's Golden Wolf King. Tsk tsk, I was right." , Meier is so lucky!"

It was only then that Chu Nan realized that he had slipped the tongue, and immediately curled his lips and said, "What is Mobei? I have also been to Fusang Mountain in Yingzhou in the East China Sea and Miaojiang in the southwest."

Yang Lie twitched the corners of his mouth, but he didn't believe it in his heart. He changed the subject and said, "Well, after talking about Li Ling, let's talk about your elder brother Chu Kuang. The Northwest is much inferior. Although there is nothing wrong with it, it has rarely made any achievements over the years. I heard that someone in the court said that Chu Kuang was not capable enough and wanted to call him back.

Although Chu Nan knew that the old ghost probably had the intention of comparing himself, so he spoke so superficially, but since he mentioned Li Ling and Chu Kuang, who had been close to him since childhood, he didn't bother to worry about anything, and said coldly: "Say Most of those poor scholars who said this. Hmph, scholars have wronged the country. If they listen to their leaders in everything, they will have no future. The period of national collapse is not far away. Moreover, although there are many races in the northwest and there are many large and small city-states, due to the existence of snow mountain temples, if there is a war, even if a few small countries take out the troops, those religious fanatics can exert twice the same amount of troops. The strength of the barbarians. Over the years, Chu Kuang has been closed to the city, but he has secretly used marriage and mutual market to win over and divide the Northwestern states. Just by looking at the number of envoys who came to pay tribute last year, it can be seen that the effect is good. Li Ling did a very good job. Okay, but the situation we are facing is different, just simply comparing the number of enemies killed to rank the top and bottom probably only those pedantic and stubborn idiots can do it."

Yang Lie automatically filtered out Chu Nan's disrespectful remarks, stroked his beard in satisfaction and said, "Oh, if you ask me, who is stronger between Chu Kuang and Li Ling?"

Chu Nan tapped his fingers anxiously on the table, frowned and said, "Since the two of them are called the two great generals of Daliang's younger generation, they naturally have their own merits. But if there is a real division, I'm still optimistic about Chu Kuang. Old Ghost Don't laugh, I'm not talking nonsense. I grew up with the two of them, so I know them naturally. Li Ling looks elegant and modest, but in his bones, he is too proud. To put it bluntly, he is arrogant. It has been going smoothly, without any setbacks, this is definitely not a good thing, let's say... well, let's say that Yangmei got married last year, Li Ling took the military order like a child's play, and attacked rashly. Although he came back with a big victory, he could tell Sensitive personality, emotional, if you want me to say, while there are not many wars in Mobei, it is best to transfer Li Ling to the south, where the situation is far more complicated than Mobei, not only the ability to lead the army to fight, but also the means of governing the country and the people, If you work on it, you will be able to achieve great things, otherwise, if you lose consecutive battles in Mobei and the capital transfers him back, this person will probably be ruined. In a word, Li Ling is a great talent, but he is too proud."

Chu Nan was excited to speak, went to the table and took a few sips of the water bottle, let out a comfortable breath, and continued: "As for Chu Kuang, he is an iceberg man who has been peeing since he was a child or under the shadow of Li Ling. .Although when he first joined the army, he fought a lot in the northwest and was awarded the title of a mad general of Chu, but he could not help giving the impression that he was more than brave but not resourceful. The year before last, Chu Kuang was promoted to three ranks and was ordered to take charge of the military and political affairs of Yongzhou. I was also taken aback at the time, but now that I want to come to the palace, he is really courageous. Next, Chu Kuang patiently sorted out the political affairs of Yongzhou carefully, and forcibly turned a dilapidated border town into a prosperous place in the northwest. I've even heard that the Northwest Garrison will be barely self-sufficient in food and grass, and based on this alone, the credit for killing [-] enemies is also scum. In a word, Chu Kuang, a calm lunatic, is handsome."

Yang Lie laughed loudly, but the more he looked at Chu Nan, the more he felt satisfied, but Chu Nan was horrified by Yang Lie's meaningful gaze, holding the water bottle sullenly, squatting down on the chair again, drinking without a sip with.

Yang Lie withdrew his gaze, sighed, and said, "Daliang's days are short, but it was able to hold down the barbarians and the countries of the Western Regions thanks to the continuous emergence of capable ministers. But after all, it's not enough background, and the powerful enemies are all coveted." , I have fought for decades, and now I can only maintain an invincible situation. I don’t know if I can still see the situation of killing the Quartet when the first emperor died.”

Chu Nan took a sip of water, but unexpectedly, he drank a mouthful of tea. He spit out a few mouthfuls, and swallowed the tea. Although it was high-quality tea, it didn't taste very good. He wiped the corner of his mouth with his fingers Tea dregs, interjected: "Isn't that right, even Yingzhou in the East China Sea is ready to move. Last night I had a fight with a member of the Fusang Sword Sect. I don't know what kind of moth they are planning to make. I really don't remember it." Something to beat. Uh, let me finish drinking the tea, and if you want to drink, ask someone to get another pot."

Outside the door, Ding Yang'an, the old family who had served Yang Lie all his life, agreed and wandered off to get some tea.

Yang Lie snorted coldly: "If it wasn't for not wanting to destroy such a prosperous place, the army would have flattened Yingzhou decades ago, so there would be no place for those clowns to show their faces. I also heard people say that the Yingzhou faction Someone came here and asked His Majesty to withdraw the army stationed in the East China Sea, saying that it hindered Yingzhou's trade and scared away many overseas businessmen, and said that Yingzhou's own strength is enough to protect itself, and there is no need for an army to protect it. Hmph, if you keep tossing around like this, your Majesty's patience will be exhausted sooner or later, and by then, I don't think they can still be arrogant?"

When Daliang was founded, the army marched south and north to fight, and conquered a lot of land, but marching and fighting, in the final analysis, is fighting for money and food.In order to raise military expenses, the emperor at that time was forced to decree never to send troops to attack Yingzhou. Yingzhou was the largest port above the East China Sea, and there were countless wealth in the city, so Yingzhou provided a large amount of money and food as protection fees.Therefore, Yingzhou's status in Daliang was undeniable, and it was basically regarded as a country within a country.Conquering a huge country but failing to capture Yingzhou was a thorn in Yang Lie's heart, otherwise he wouldn't have often clamored for his horse to step into Yingzhou.

Chu Nan hurriedly appease the excited war maniac, and said: "You are so old, you can leave the fighting and killing to the juniors, you are free to play chess, play chess, play tricks and so on That's what you should be thinking about."

Yang Lie looked at Chu Nan with a strange face, raised his eyebrows, and said with a chuckle: "Well, I also thought about it, what kind of grandson, but you are not up to date, you haven't even made a movement for so long. "

Chu Nan called Qu and said, "You can give me a baby yourself? It's not that I don't want to, but... um..."

Chu Nan noticed that Yang Lie was looking behind him with strange eyes, and when he turned around, he saw Yang Mei standing at the door, holding tea in his hand, with a strange expression on his face, but he was staring at him in a daze, looking at a loss .
