The sudden abnormal movement of troops and horses in the country, even a small change in the city defense, also attracted the attention of the scheming old fox like Yin Zi.

"You said that the guards of the twelve gates of Yingdu have all changed?"

Ling Yin, who was looking for a book in front of the bookshelf, looked back at the person who came when he heard this, and his voice rose slightly.

"Yes, Lord Ling Yin. Before the son left, he told us to keep an eye on Yingdu up and down, and once we found any changes, we would report to the adults first. So now we find that there is a change in the gate of Yingdu, and we are here to report it. Qin Ling, one of the Eight Secret Guards, said.

"Now the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and the Tiger Ben Forbidden Army are in the hands of Yue Jiao......"

"He still has the four parts of Ruoao in his hands, 30,000 people......"

"Although the 50,000 slaves last time were handed over to the king of Chu, it is always a hidden danger......"

Ling Yin Zi unconsciously flipped through the book slip in his hand, but his eyes did not fall on the book, but he walked back and forth in the inner study, and after a long time, he raised his voice and said, "Butler, go and call the eldest master over." ”

"Yes, Lord Ling Yin. ”

The steward took the order and departed.

After a while, Ruo Ao Ziliang, who was about to rest, came over and asked, "Is there anything wrong with the second brother?" ”

"Do you know that Jiao'er just mobilized the guards of the Chu Palace and the East Palace after leaving the palace a few days ago, and today she has mobilized the defense of the city gate?" asked Ling Yin Zi casually.

Ruo Ziliang is Sima, but he doesn't pay much attention to these small things, "What's the matter?" Maybe Jiao'er is just thinking about the safety of Yingdu and the king. ”

Ling Yin Zi groaned.

It seems that the eldest brother doesn't know about this.

It's not that he is secretly guarding against anything, but if Ao Ziyan went north this time, he almost took away almost one-third of Ruo Ao's six troops, as well as all the young and strong soldiers in Yingdu, the country is empty, if there is stubble at this time, there will be turmoil, so he has to be vigilant and on guard.

No one can disrupt it until his son returns.

He, as a father, has to keep all this for his son.

"No, it's just strange that this transfer is made, I thought it was an order issued by you, and you also know that Yan'er is fighting outside now, and the country is empty, so I was afraid that there would be a good one, so I asked casually. ”

Ling Yin Zi shook his head and said, and then proposed, "But when Ziyan comes back, my eldest brother and I should almost abdicate and make way for Xian, it is better to let Jiao'er learn from the eldest brother during this time, a lieutenant is still too wronged by his identity as the eldest son." ”

"I also have this intention, but I don't know who will take over the affairs in Jiao'er's hands for a while. ”

Since Cheng Dechen went, if Ao Ziliang was also tired, this court would always be handed over to the younger generation, and his eldest son had made great achievements after so many years of training, it was time to retire from his position.

Ling Yin Ziyan raised his hand when he heard this, "Big brother, if this is not the case, I remember that Sima Zuo is just old now, it is better to change to Jiao'er and let him learn from the eldest brother in advance." ”

If Ao Ziliang heard this, he agreed, "Okay, I'll tell Jiao'er tomorrow, he hasn't come back yet." ”

"Okay, then big brother should rest early. ”

Make Yin Zi's jaw bow.

Before Ao Ziliang left, Ling Yin Zifu asked again, "By the way, big brother, there have been too many things in the recent period, and it was the Zhou Dynasty who came to envoys, and Yan'er went on the expedition, and then became old and passed away, weren't we all the extra 50,000 slaves of Strange Jiao'er at that time?"

"You may have asked him later where he came from, and the 50,000 men are not a small number......

"If you don't say it, I almost forgot, tomorrow, I'll ask him as well. ”

Ruo Ziliang slapped his forehead.

If it weren't for Yin Zi's reminder, Ruo Ziliang would have almost forgotten about this matter that puzzled him, although most of Ziyan's expedition was handled by him, but there were a lot of procedures to go through his Sima's side, so he forgot about it when he was busy.

"Then Brother Lao has time to ask, so many slaves are not a trivial matter, see where he got so many people, I'm afraid that the money in the past few years is not enough to spend such a large number of people......"

"Well, I'm also surprised that day in the western suburbs, as if it evaporated out of thin air! It is said that there are also a number of slaves in my Chu country, and there are suddenly more than 50,000 people, so I really should ask. ”

If Ao Ziliang bows his head.

Be sure to ask about it tomorrow.

Especially the 50,000 extra slaves on the hunting ground in the western suburbs last time, the discerning people knew that there was a problem at a glance, except for the old and dizzy King Chu who did not notice it, in fact, all the families were suspicious of this matter in private, and they also inquired about it to him in private at that time, at that time he deduced that he did not know, although he did not know, and later because if Ao Ziyan went out to the Northern Expedition and happened to divert everyone's attention, if someone has a heart to pick up this matter, I am afraid that it will be overturned like a disaster relief case.

If Ao Ziliang is mellow, he may turn a blind eye to the calculations of these women and Taoists of the Lu family, but when it comes to the Ruo Ao family, it must also be understood.

Just like when a flock of sheep is grazing, it will always be on guard against the attack of wild wolves.

And the wolf has never given up eating sheep, which is due to nature.

With such a wild and untamable nephew as Ao Yuejiao, Yin Zi always felt that he had to be on guard at any time.

The mobilization of troops and horses in the city of Yingdu could not arouse the vigilance of some old foxes, even Li Lao, who was about to fall asleep at night, heard this, and said to the servants who served, "I hope that this time no one will be as bad luck as the Zhou family......

Naturally, the subordinates who served did not know the thoughts of these power-grabbers, so they just knelt down and retreated.

On the dock, the wild dogs saw Qing'er get on the boat, and the boat drove away, they had no way to get on the boat, so they could only return to Zhuangzi on the mountain next to the eastern suburbs to report to the Seventh Prince, but they were about to knock on the door when they heard a cold and hard voice from inside, "You said that after the great flood of my Chu country, there is really such a good land?"

"My lord, I have traveled south and north, which country in Kyushu has not been to, and you have been recruiting troops and horses for so many years, you still don't believe my vision, the eastern suburbs are simply a godsend granary!"

The young man in a green brocade robe raised his eyebrows and said, "Originally, Xianqi just wanted to encircle all these homeless homeless people after the flood for adults, but following these homeless people, I found this place in the eastern suburbs. ”

The wild dog heard that the seventh prince inside seemed to be talking to their master above, so he took back the hand that was about to knock on the door, only to hear the seventh prince inside continue, "My lord, I'm afraid I don't know that even the richest Qi country, after the pipe, has never seen such a rich farmland, these 100,000 acres of fertile land will be able to produce 300,000 stone of grain in August, which is much more considerable than the 100,000 stone disaster grain." ”

"And now there is such a good opportunity, it depends on whether the adults dare to do another big vote!"

"What does it mean to be big?"

The man laughed loudly when he heard this, and raised his eyebrows to look at Xianqi.
