In these days in the warm pavilion of the general sugar factory, Xiao Yao has enjoyed the blessings of all the people, under the quiet care of Xu Miao and Song Keer, Xiao Yao's body and spirit have been greatly recovered, and the injured heart has also been greatly comforted! So, Xiao Yao felt that it was time to get out of the customs and face all kinds of open guns and hidden arrows in this Jinling City, and deceive me!

"Young master, I have already asked Steward Li to go to Yecheng of Qi according to your instructions, and then I will go to find Mu Tipo's mother and son, and then spread the news that is unfavorable to Hu Luguang, provoke these treacherous ministers to attack Hu Luguang, and fan the flames of this pillar of Qi with a move, and kill people with a knife! If Gao Wei, the emperor of Qi State, really hit the plan, and attacked Hu Luguang, the general who made great achievements for the Qi State and supported the Qi State with the strength of one person, then Gao Wei, who was so mediocre and self-destructed that the Great Wall, was indeed a natural king of the dead country, and he couldn't imagine that Gao Huan, the powerful minister of the Wei State who dominated one side back then, would give birth to such unfilial descendants! Zu Yuan said with a pity on his face, after all, this Gao Huan was famous in the north back then, and he had the strength to dominate the world, which made Zu Yuan, a businessman who went south and north to do business in the early years, all of them were like thunder, and they were very awe-inspiring!

"From the fact that he was provoked by the people we sent to Qi State to change generals on the spot and remove Gao Changgong from the past, it can be seen that this Gao Wei is a suspicious, jealous, and unassertive person! Such people, what they care about most is their own interests, and he can ignore other things at all, even if it is the interests of the country, the life and death of the soldiers and the people, Gao Wei can abandon all of them, and then exchange them for his own happiness and pleasure! Xiao Yao sneered, and then continued: "So as long as Steward Li arrives in Qi State, in front of those people who are around Gao Wei, he shows his awe of Hu Luguang and pulls him in advance, so that these traitors and villains feel that this Hu Luguang is not only very prestigious in their Qi country, but now even our Chen State is unanimously optimistic about him, thinking that he has the ability to turn the tide, as long as he controls the power of Qi State, he can make Qi State strong again in the decline of national strength!" Then these sycophants will continue to say bad things about Hu Luguang in Gao Wei's ears for their own interests, and Gao Wei, who has no opinions, will naturally believe it and think that this Hu Luguang will really launch a coup d'état and seize the power in his hands Gao Wei! At that time, we don't need to do it at all, he Gao Wei will kill this Hu Luguang for us! ”

"Since ancient times, famous generals have been taboo to cover the master! Now this Hu Luguang not only holds heavy troops and has made various military exploits, and has a high prestige in the hearts of the soldiers and people of Qi State, but also meets a suspicious and cautious emperor like Gao Wei, then God will really put this Hu Luguang to death! So, young master, I think you should also beware of this emperor of our Chen State, although he is more open-minded and generous than Gao Wei, but as an emperor, they will not trust anyone, including the generals who help themselves fight the world, as long as they have doubts, they will not hesitate to do something to their subordinates, even if they have made great achievements, they will kill them mercilessly, in order to eliminate future troubles! According to the news fed back by my contacts and eyeliners in the palace, now this Chen Xu is very important to the young master, like this time the young master just returned to Jinling, and was called into the imperial study by Chen Xu to talk about military secrets, which shows how much importance the young master attaches to Chen Xu's heart! And the young master, you have become a general by virtue of your military merits at a young age, which has caused the dissatisfaction of many officials and generals who were born in the clan and the lords, and now the young master has just returned to Jinling City, but the entire Jinling City has been spread all kinds of rumors about the young master, if these people also say bad things about the young master in Chen Xu's ear, then I am afraid it will be even more unfavorable to the young master! Zu Yuan reminded with a worried face.

The current Zu Yuan, with the identity of the second largest commercial bank in Chen Guo, uses various means to organize a huge intelligence network, from the inner courtyard of the palace to the corner of the street, there are his eyes, it can be said that the events that occur in the entire Jinling City, large and small, will be reported to Zu Yuan! So that day, Xiao Yao suddenly vomited blood and fell into a coma at this confidential meeting held in the imperial study of Chen Xu in the palace, and his ancestor Yuan immediately got the news, so he stopped Xiao Yao halfway in advance and sent him to the warm pavilion of the general sugar factory to recuperate! Zu Yuan, who now has a lot of information in his hands, knows even more that Jinling City is full of Xiao Yao's enemies, and there are conspiracy traps against Xiao Yao everywhere, which makes Zu Yuan very worried about himself, the lord who has been hit physically and mentally!

"Thank you Boss Zu for your care and reminder! Of course, I know the taboo of the Meritorious Lord, so why do I want you not to clarify those rumors now, it is because these rumors are slandering and slandering me, so the more these rumors spread, the more it will affect my reputation, and Chen Xu will naturally not have any scruples about me! And I also know that in the Northern Expedition last year, I was indeed too showy, causing Chen Shubao to attack me by any means, not only snatching away my beloved woman, but also taking the opportunity to suppress Chen Shuling, and then forcing you to sell General Commercial Bank to Yinhai Commercial Bank! Boss Zu has really worked hard for you, and has been helping me support the rear of Jinling! Xiao Yao said gratefully.

"It is Zu Yuan's honor to be able to share the worries of the young master!" Hearing the lord's praise for himself, Zu Yuan immediately saluted excitedly and was loyal, and then continued with a smug face: "Actually, Zu Yuan is also very grateful for everything the young master gave me, giving me the opportunity to fight against these bullying and bullying magnates!" Back then, Zu Yuan was deeply humiliated by them, and now it is all thanks to the support of the young master, I can still be invincible in the face of their various attacks! ”

"Young master, now that your body has almost recovered, according to the young master's character, you won't continue to swallow your anger like this! So what's next for us? Zu Yuan looked at Xiao Yao with a wicked smile and asked. 678

"The first thing we need to do now is to make everyone know how important we are! Chen Xu refuses to pay for me to rebuild the forward brigade, then I will let Zhou Chao slow down the progress of those artillery casting, and you will have to prepare other strategic materials in secret! During this time, I will use the excuse of staying in Jinling and not returning to the Northern Expedition army for the time being, I want Chen Xu to know that without me Xiao Yao and my musket artillery, his Chen army will not be able to take Huaibei at all! Xiao Yao sneered.

Chen Xu, who only sat in Jinling to read the battle report and understand the battle situation, of course he didn't understand the huge role played by these firearms in the battlefield, he really thought that Chen Guo's army could take Huainan in another half a year, because of his Chen Xu's wise leadership and the unity of the monarch and ministers, so that the soldiers fought bravely and won the victory! So when he heard the cost of Xiao Yao's rebuilding of the forward brigade, Chen Xu refused without hesitation, a forward brigade of only a few thousand people actually had to use the cost of tens of thousands of troops, which of course scared Chen Xu a lot, you must know that he aims to dominate the world, so in his eyes, of course, the more people in the world, the better, is it true that you Xiao Yao can use these thousands of people to help him dominate the world?

"It just so happens that now Chen Shuling has been transferred out of Jiangzhou, and the newly appointed Jiangzhou assassin Chen Shujian is Chen Shubao's person, so now Master Zhou and Master Li's actions in Jiangzhou have been greatly disturbed, during this time, we will let them keep a low profile first, and I will also secretly assist on the side, wronging the people of Jiangzhou for a period of time, and making Jiangzhou complaining, then Chen Xu will naturally know the importance of Lord Li's father and son in Jiangzhou, and if he doesn't want to make any trouble in Jiangzhou, then he can only let Master Li take over Jiangzhou!" Zu Yuan also smiled treacherously, now the general business bank controls all aspects of Jiangzhou, the people of Jiangzhou, food, clothing, housing, transportation, eating, drinking and having fun are inseparable from the general business bank, if Zu Yuan is an obstacle from it, it will definitely disrupt the lives of the people of Jiangzhou, and when the public sentiment is surging, Chen Xu will have to transfer Chen Shujian away and replace it with a person who can satisfy the general business bank, such as Li An!

"Okay, just do as you say, the current General Merchant House is no longer what they say can be bullied, we have to let them know that without us, their Chen State is the weakest among the three kingdoms of Zhou, Chen and Qi, and even the Qi State where the faint monarch is in charge and the traitors are rampant!" Xiao Yao also sneered.

"Young master, I just got an express report that Gao Yuan is coming to Jinling with his special forces, and in addition to a woman, there are also Huang Wenyuan, He Fu and Li Nong, and several other young master's subordinates! They said that they were very excited when they heard the news that the young master had returned to Jinling safely, and immediately rushed to Jinling from the Western Route Army to see the young master! I believe that in just one or two days, they will be able to come to Jinling! Zu Yuan reported.

"They're coming to Jinling? That's great! On that day, everyone was struggling to break through the siege, I don't even know whether these subordinates are alive or dead, and now I can finally see them again! Xiao Yao said with emotion.

"Also, the guards who escorted the young master back, although some of them have gone back, there are still more than a thousand soldiers left in Jinling, and I have also arranged all kinds of food and entertainment for them, they are quite grateful, and they also said that they only obey the orders of the young master, so even the guards of Jinling City can't do anything about them! How is the young master going to use this army? Zu Yuan felt that since Xiao Yao left these people behind and greeted them with delicious food and drink, according to Xiao Yao's character who refused to suffer, he must have his own plans!

"Now that countries are fighting chaotically, these soldiers are the masters! And these soldiers who were born and died for the country on the battlefield, no matter what they do, the people above will turn a blind eye, so I want to use the hands of this group of soldiers to tell the people in Jinling City that Xiao Yao, who has no one in his eyes and is arrogant, has returned! Xiao Yao said domineeringly.
