Chapter 355: The Royalists
When Gao Yuan walked into Ye Tiannan's study, it was already half an hour later, as soon as he entered the door, Ye Feng even shrank to the corner of the room, lowered his head, and didn't say a word, he also knew that the time seemed to have dragged on a little longer, but he couldn't blame himself, he had called several times, but the two of them turned a deaf ear, what should they do if they called themselves?
Gao Yuan didn't have this kind of consciousness, unlike Ye Feng who saw Ye Tiannan now like a mouse seeing a cat, he didn't have any awe for Ye Tiannan. If there is some respect, it is just from the fact that he is Ye Jing'er's father, and he is afraid of Aiwu and Wu, and that's it.
As soon as he stepped into the door, Ye Tiannan couldn't sit still, but the two guests he was accompanying stood up.
Glancing at the two guests slightly, Gao Yuan clenched his fists with both hands and slammed towards Ye Tiannan to the ground, "Gao Yuan has seen my father-in-law." ”
"Hmm!" Ye Tiannan nodded with satisfaction, the moment Gao Yuan stepped into the door, he was still a little worried about Gao Yuan's attitude towards him, after all, the past of the two was not too pleasant, so Ye Feng secretly took Gao Yuan to see Ye Jing'er first, and he didn't stop it. Where could Ye Feng understand that when Ye Jing'er broke away from the maid, he pretended to order, and only a moment after transferring the guards, Ye Tiannan already knew about their small actions, but after Ye Tiannan thought for a while, he didn't stop it, maybe, before Gao Yuan came to see him, he would meet Ye Jing'er first, maybe he could shorten the distance between Weng and his son-in-law. is inseparable, and Gao Yuan must understand this truth.
Now it seems that his thoughts are correct, at least, Gao Yuan's reaction is normal now.
He stood up and put his hands on Gao Yuan, "Family, what are you doing with so many courtesies?" Come, I'll introduce you to two guests! Ye Tiannan smiled, his face full of joy. This is my Dayan internal history Chun Yu Yan, you have seen it, Chun Yu is my Great Yan internal history, running between countries, for my Great Yan diplomacy made great contributions, is my Dayan first-class hero. ”
Chun Yuyan smiled and waved his hand: "Ye Xiangyu praised, Chun Yuyan has any ability, but with a three-inch tongue, it is just a matter of using the benefits of the tongue." How can you compare to General Gao, galloping on the battlefield. If the command is determined, killing the enemy is like cutting melons and vegetables, and I am majestic. ”
"A three-inch tongue is enough for 100,000 elite soldiers." Gao Yuan flattered: "When the last general was on the front line of Yuyang, I heard that the adults were above Zhao Ting, fighting the monarchs and ministers of Zhao State, and his witty words were like flowers, and he did not fall behind at all. Gao Yuan is admired. ”
Gao Yuan said sincerely, but Chun Yuyan was also happy to hear it, he traveled between countries, and he was used to seeing deceit. The things he does every day are also the deeds of yin and yang, and to say that he likes Gao Yuan is a fool's dream. But at this moment, looking at this general from a humble background, it is much more pleasing to the eye.
"Both of you are the sons of the country. Just stop flattering each other. Ye Tiannan happily watched Gao Yuan and Chun Yuyan hit it off at first sight, talking and laughing. Come on, Gao Yuan, come to see Ji Junshou, Ji Junshou is the most trusted person in the king, and now he leads Tianhe County and guards Jicheng. ”
"I've seen Ji Junshou!" Gao Yuan stepped forward to salute, he was not familiar with Ji Wugui, so he didn't have much to say.
"Everyone, we've all met, let's sit down and talk." Ye Tiannan clapped his hands, turned his head and glanced at Ye Feng in the corner, "Feng'er, just sit there, I'll wait for you to speak, you can hear about it, just listen, don't interject!" ”
"Yes, Daddy!" Ye Feng whispered.
Chun Yuyan smiled and said: "Ye Xiang has the heart of a beloved son, and heaven and man can learn from it!" The little boy is brilliant, both civil and military, and he will definitely be able to carry forward the Ye family in the future. ”
"Borrow the auspicious words of the adult!" Ye Tiannan thanked him again and again, "This kid is still tender, and I will have to ask all the uncles to help him in the future." ”
Ji Wugui grinned silently, "The little boy has everyone like Ye Xiang in the house, and there are strong reinforcements like General Gao outside, in this world, even if you go sideways, it's okay." ”
Ye Tiannan waved his hand, "Okay, everyone, what happens to this kid in the future, it depends on his creation, let's get down to business, come, sit down and talk." ”
After the four of them sat down, Ye Tiannan's face slowly became serious, looked at Gao Yuan, and said in a condensed voice: "Gao Yuan, the two elders came from afar, on the bright side, to congratulate you and Jing'er on the marriage, but there is another meaning inside, can you guess it?" ”
Gao Yuan's gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, and he nodded: "I know a little bit about it." ”
"I know a little bit about this, but you said let's hear it!" Chun Yuyan smiled.
Gao Yuan cleared his throat, "Father-in-law, two adults, then I will be ugly." My father-in-law had been in exile with the king for ten years, and he planned from all sides to finally make the king return to the country and ascend the throne, which was naturally deeply trusted by the king, and Ji County Shou was able to lead Tianhe County and defend Jicheng, needless to say, he was also a trustworthy person of the king. ”
"Royalists?" Ji Wugui laughed, "This word is good, Gao Yuan, you are also right, the three of us can be regarded as royalists, what about you?" ”
"My father-in-law and I are grasshoppers on the same rope, one is prosperous, and the other is lost, Ji Junshou, you say, am I a royalist?" Gao Yuan asked rhetorically.
"Wonderful, the words are not rough, that's it." Ji Wugui nodded again and again: "Then the reason why we are here, you can guess a thing or two?" ”
"My father-in-law was forced to step down, and now Jicheng must be the world of Zhou Yuan and Ning Zecheng, although the king is on the throne, it is difficult to move, like walking on thin ice. The king is in dire need of reinforcements. "High and far-reaching.
"That's a good point!" Ji Wugui clasped his palms together, "Zhou Yuan and Ning Zecheng are now completely in control of the government, and what is even more terrifying is that the army and Yan Lingwei are also in their hands, looking at the entire Jicheng, the king can't find a few people to trust, Ye Zhong is the commander of the palace guards, and the troops he can control are only three thousand people, only less than one-third of the Jicheng Janissaline Army, Xun Xiu is the doctor, running in many ways, contacting, but the civil and military officials of Jicheng are afraid of the power of the two, and they dare not be loyal to the king at all, and the form can be described as terrible. ”
"But Gao Yuan's strength is meager, and he lives in a corner. I am afraid that the help of the king is limited! Gao Yuan sighed.
"No, no!" Chun Yuyan shook his head again and again: "Gao Yuan, Jicheng is under the control of Zhou Ning and the others, that is, Tianhe County, and it is difficult to do anything, because most of the standing army of Yan State is stationed in Tianhe County, and these troops are all controlled by these two people, so if the king wants to make a difference, he must start from the outside." The Great Fire of Jicheng. Ye Xiang resigned, in fact, Ye Xiang left Jicheng, it is not a good thing, return to Langya, work hard, as the king of Austria, Langya, Tianhe, plus General Gao's relationship with Liaoxi Zhang Shouyu. If you want to come to Liaoxi, you must be willing to support the king, plus the elite soldiers in your hands, this is already a considerable force. There is a force of this force, at a minimum. can keep the king safe. ”
Hearing Chun Yuyan say this, Gao Yuan was taken aback, is King Yan's situation already so bad? Worried about your life?
"How did it get to this?" Gao Yuan blurted out.
"Not at the moment." Chun Yuyan sighed and said: "Before the Donghu is pacified, there can be no chaos in the country. If this is not the case, but once Donghu is destroyed, it will be difficult to say. The king was in exile for many years. Well-informed and hard-working, this is a good thing for us, but it is not good news for those who want to control the government and do whatever they want. Gao Yuan, you should understand what I mean, so in the past few years of quelling Donghu, the king must have a strong force of his own to compete with it in order to have any hope of reviving the dynasty. ”
"Having said that, the military power is in Zhou Yuan's hands!" Gao Yuan sighed: "Even if you count me and Zhang Taishou's people, it's a drop in the bucket. I've got a lot of money in my hands, but I'm just over 6,000 people. And Zhang Shou asked Zhang Taishou, and there will be no more than 20,000 elite soldiers in his hands, and the others are also some people who are also soldiers at home, and the army in the hands of Captain Zhou cannot be talked about! ”
"It's true now, but we still have a few years to go, Gao Yuan, you are the general of Zhengdong, and the establishment of Zhengdong Mansion is 20,000 soldiers and horses, I think, if you have 20,000 horses, then expand to 30,000, 40,000, who dares to say more? War is the best time to expand. Chun Yuyan said with a smile: "This is like doing business, the greater the capital, the more opportunities to make big profits." ”
"Lord Chunyu said it easily!" Gao Yuan shook his head and said: "Don't say it's 34,000 people, it's 20,000 people, Gao Yuan can't afford it, although Zhengdong Mansion is a national standing army, but the salary and military expenses are all in the hands of the captain, he only needs to use some means, I can't do it, there are soldiers but no pay, no food, then the soldiers are not a guarantee, but a disaster." ”
"You don't have to worry about this!" Ji Wugui said: "You have Langya standing behind you, standing Tianhe, these two counties have nothing else, but they have money and food, you just need to expand the army, train the army, strengthen the army, and solve the problem of money and food." As much as you want, we can collect as much as you want, and then avoid Zhou Yuan's eyes and ears, and quietly send it to you. ”
Gao Yuan looked at each other dumbfounded, is this pie in the sky? I was worried about money and food, and someone actually sent it to the door, it seems, I was afraid that I would not be able to accept it.
"Two adults, Gao Yuan has something to understand, and please ask the two adults to solve my doubts!"
"General Gao, please speak."
"I don't know why there are two other adults in the king of the Dao Dao who trust me so much?" Gao Yuan said bluntly.
Chun Yuyan said with a smile: "General Gao is really bright, others have long been overjoyed when they hear such a beautiful thing, and only characters like General Gao will say this bluntly, why do we trust General Gao?" First, you and Zhou Yuan and Ning Zecheng have a common enmity, the Jicheng Incident, General Gao suffered heavy losses, and he almost lost his life, which is still fresh in my memory. Second, you are Ye Xiang's son-in-law, and Ye Xiang is the king's most trusted person. Third, Zilan said back then, you are high and far ahead, and in time, you will become Zhao Mu of Yan Kingdom, although Zilan is the face of the enemy country, but I can trust his vision of people. ”
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend!" Gao Yuan muttered.
"That's a good thing to say!" Ji Wugui said with a smile.
Gao Yuan smiled slightly, sometimes, the enemy of the enemy, maybe the enemy, even if it is not the enemy, sometimes it is not necessarily a friend, but this good thing sent to the door, why not do you want it? (To be continued......)
