Huo Changqing got the news and came back from Zhuangzi. However, at this time, Yunqing was still in the barracks and did not come back, so Huo Changqing went to see Yuxi first.

Seeing Yuxi, Huo Changqing asked, "Where are the jujubes?" "I haven't seen him for a while, and he wants to panic early! In fact, it is also fate, people like Huo Changqing who are as strict as the average child will be afraid, but Zao Zao is a bold girl.

Yuxi hurriedly asked Mother Lan to take the jujube out. Huo Changqing smiled and took the jujube from Mother Lan's arms and said, "Zao Zao, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you miss grandpa?" ”

Zao Zao giggled and stretched out his hand to grab Huo Changqing's beard, but fortunately, Huo Changqing's beard was not long, and Zao Zao was not very stable.

Huo Changqing asked: "It's been more than a year, why can't you speak?" "I remember that children were talking when they were about one year old.

Yuxi was also a little depressed, this girl also looks smart, but she can't speak after thirteen months, and she is also very sad: "Mother Lan said that some children speak later, and some children speak earlier, and they are only thirteen years old now, so it's okay." ”

Huo Changqing teased this jujube and said, "Come, jujube, call grandpa......"

Yuxi has been teaching jujube to call daddy these days, but this maid just doesn't speak, every time she teaches her, she screams and dances in that wow wow place, which makes Yuxi a little discouraged.

"Night, night ......" Zao Zao said two words inarticulately.

Huo Changqing was overjoyed and said: "It's not night, it's grandpa, come, grandpa, grandpa......" Huo Changqing taught jujube to pronounce correctly next to him.

The pronunciation of "Ye, Ye......" for the second time is more accurate. Zaojube's move made Huo Changqing so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut.

Yuxi snorted, turned to Huo Changqing and smiled: "This girl is still close to Uncle Huo, I have taught her for several months and I don't want to speak." As soon as Uncle Huo taught, he was willing to speak. "It's also false to say that it's not a little sour, but Zao Zao is still very happy to be able to speak. Although Lan's mother said that it was normal for the child to not speak for thirteen months, Yuxi was still a little worried. Now that this girl can speak, it's a heart problem.

Huo Changqing loved to hear this, and immediately Huo Changqing said with a smile: "This is also the fate of our grandfather." ”

After teasing the jujube for a while, Huo Changqing talked to Yuxi about business and asked, "Xu Wu said that you quarreled with Yunqing because of the mention of Yì sending troops?" ”

When Yuxi heard this, his expression immediately darkened, and he said, "He Rui knows that he will never be a rebel and a thief in the future. Yuxi guessed that Yunqing would definitely be unhappy when he knew about this, but he didn't expect the reaction to be so strong.

Huo Changqing was not surprised, and said: "Old Man Yun is an upright and upright person, Yun Qing grew up beside him since he was a child, and he was greatly influenced. After a pause, Huo Changqing said: "You may not know, I originally wanted him to change his name and surname to join the army, and then announce his identity when the time is ripe." Marshal Qin was still there at that time, and it was not difficult to change his name and surname, but he was unwilling. He said that he lived an upright life, why did he change his name and surname as if he was unsightly? I can't resist him, so I can only follow his wishes. It was also because he did not change his name and surname that he was endlessly assassinated by Song Song's family. It is also Yunqing's great life that will live steadily until now.

Yuxi didn't expect there to be such a show, and said worriedly: "Then what if he wants to do it or not?" ”

Huo Changqing said: "Don't worry about this, I will explain him." ”

With this promise, Yuxi also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good." "I'm afraid that Yunqing will miss the opportunity for the sake of fame.

Huo Changqing can say this to Yuxi, and he also has this confidence. However, Huo Changqing also had his concerns, and said: "Yunqing sends troops, and the imperial court will definitely send a large army to exterminate them." In the unlikely event that the northern captives get the news and attack us from front to back, we will be attacked on our backs. "Yunqing has a sentence that is right, not sending troops is indeed a rebellion, and the imperial court will definitely send troops to encircle and suppress it.

Yuxi said: "The local armies of Shaanxi and Gansu provinces are vulnerable in front of the Northwest Army. If we wait for the imperial court to send troops from the southwest to encircle and suppress them, the two provinces will already be occupied by us. ”

Huo Changqing said: "Even if you capture the two provinces, what about after that? ”

Yuxi said shamelessly: "After conquering the two provinces, I negotiated conditions with the imperial court and asked the imperial court to agree to let He Rui be the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu. "Then you won't be considered a rebel or a thief.

Huo Changqing felt that Yuxi hadn't gotten to the point yet, and said: "The local army in the northwest is not worried, but when the time comes, the imperial court will send a large army to encircle and suppress it, and the northwest army will definitely not be able to defeat it with such a small number of troops." Besides, fighting a war is burning money, and we don't have that much money. "The Northwest Army only has 100,000, and some people must be left to guard Yucheng, and the maximum number of soldiers and horses that can be used is 60,000. If the imperial court sends 200,000 troops to encircle and suppress, it will be very dangerous at that time. this

Yuxi glanced at Huo Changqing, a little speechless in his heart, what was he worried about: "Uncle Huo, there is a saying called fighting to raise war. As long as you get the two northwestern provinces, are you still worried that you won't be able to recruit soldiers without military spending? Even if you don't recruit new soldiers, there are quite a few in the Northwest Local Army alone. "The local army in the northwest is not strong, not because these soldiers are bad, but because the atmosphere of the battalion guards is not good. Just change the boss and you can get a new look. The previous Chen Yu is a good example.

Huo Changqing felt that Yuxi was too optimistic: "Forced conscription will only backfire. ”

Yuxi said: "Uncle Huo, as long as you ensure that they are fed and clothed, I believe that there will be many people who will volunteer to serve as soldiers." "It's better to be a soldier than a bandit.

Huo Changqing was silent for a moment, and then said: "Even if the army sent by the imperial court can't encircle and suppress us, the imperial court has promised to let Yunqing serve as the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, do you think Yunqing can do a good job as this governor?" "The governor of Shaanxi and Gansu has great powers, that is, he is in charge of military affairs, food, horses, etc. Of course, if Yunqing controls the northwest, then the military and government affairs will have to be grasped. Huo Changqing still knows Yunqing very well, and it is good that Yunqing can fight, but if he is allowed to handle government affairs, it is enough.

Yuxi said: "Uncle Huo, don't worry about this. When the time comes, select some honest and capable officials, and they will take care of these things. "As long as the superior uses good people and can control these people, it is enough, and they don't have to do it themselves. You have to do everything yourself, and you don't have to vomit blood.

Huo Changqing said: "That's what I said, but if Yunqing doesn't understand this, he won't know if he is fooled in the future." ”

Yuxi's head was full of black lines, and he said as if Yunqing was stupid: "These things are not difficult, and you can't fool Herui and me." "Taxing Yuxi has some understanding, but Yuxi has not been exposed to the law. But you can learn if you don't understand, and it's not that difficult.

When Huo Changqing heard this, he nodded and said, "That's it." “

Yunqing was busy until the evening before coming back, and as soon as he returned to the mansion, he heard Zao Zao call someone, but the first call was not to call Daddy, but to Grandpa. Yun Qing asked, "Uncle Huo is back?" "Huo Changqing is the only one who can call jujube grandpa.

Xu Wu nodded and said, "Well, I arrived at noon, and I'm in the yard now!" "I hope that my father-in-law can have a good talk with the general and make the general change his mind.

When Yun Qing saw Huo Changqing, he felt that his complexion was much better now than before, and said, "Father-in-law, you are back." ”

Huo Changqing snorted and asked all the people in the courtyard to go out, and then said to Yun Qing: "Han's Jianyi, how did you think about it?" ”

Yun Qing shook his head and said, "No, you can't send troops without an order." "He has to keep his bottom line and never take that step.

Huo Changqing didn't answer Yunqing's words, but said: "Have you ever thought that once you are gone, not only will the Han family and Zao Zao not survive, but even I, Xu Wu and Feng Dajun will all have to die the same." "Their relationship with Yunqing is one glory and one loss, once Yunqing is killed, they will definitely be eliminated.

Yun Qing was stunned, he really hadn't thought about this problem.

Huo Changqing said, "Yunqing, I know what you're worried about? You're afraid of being infamous through the ages. But why don't you think differently, if you do this, you will benefit tens of millions of people, and even open up territory! ”

Yunqing didn't understand the meaning of this: "What does it mean that I can benefit tens of millions of people and expand my territory?" "What does this have to do with him.

Huo Changqing said: "Now the northwest is in chaos, the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes are fiercer than the tiger, and the people are miserable. If you become the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, you will not collect taxes and fish and flesh the people. When the time comes, the rulers will rule the Qingming Dynasty, and it will naturally benefit tens of millions of people. As for the expansion of the territory, if you have enough financial resources, can't you destroy the captives in the north with your ability? ”

Yunqing smiled bitterly: "How can it be so easy to manage the government affairs of the two provinces?" "If Yuxi was here, he would definitely be speechless. Before he became the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, he was worried that he would not be able to handle this position.

Huo Changqing shook his head and said, "It's no problem for you to lead troops to fight, how difficult is government affairs?" And with Han's help, I'm sure there will be no problem. Seeing that Yunqing was still hesitating, Huo Changqing said: "Yunqing, I believe that if the old man is alive, he will agree with what I mean." ”

Yun Qing didn't say: "Uncle Huo, once you fail, not only our family, but also all of you will die." "Not only did Yu Cong die, but even their wives and children died. Rebellion is a great crime for the Nine Clans.

Huo Changqing said: "My life was originally picked up, and now one more day of life is one more day of earning." As for Xu Wu and Yu Cong, even if they lose their lives at that time, I believe they will not have half a word of complaint. After a pause, Huo Changqing looked at Yunqing and said, "If you become a king or lose a king, we don't have to be restrained anymore." If you lose, it is nothing more than a death, what is there to be afraid of. ”

Yunqing said: "I just don't want Yuxi to die with Zaojube." "There is one reason why he doesn't want to bear the infamy of the ages, and the other reason is that he is afraid of failure and his wife and children.

Huo Changqing heard this and said, "When the Han clan told me that he wanted you to become the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, I asked her, why did she have this idea? Do you know what Han said at the time? ”

Yun Qing shook his head, he really hadn't asked this question.

Huo Changqing said: "Han said that she didn't want her children to be controlled by others like her. "Many people say that Han is a very ambitious person, but in fact, Huo Changqing really doesn't think Yuxi is very ambitious. It's not so much ambition, but the shadow cast by the previous events is too deep to make her feel that only enough power can keep herself and her family.

Yun Qing was silent for a while, and said, "Uncle Huo, I will think about it seriously." ”R1148
