Chi Tonghao asked people to prepare horses and hurried to General Fan Ping's mansion. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the gate, General Lu Chong's car had just stopped. Both of them were stunned, and suddenly they both smiled slightly, knowing each other's intentions! I couldn't help laughing, and walked in hand in hand, the two of them are frequent visitors here, and those family members also know each other, so while sending someone to report to General Fan, they have already led the two generals to the living room!

"Hahahaha! I was about to visit you, but you came to me first! Hurry up, please take a seat! Come on, good tea! As soon as he sat down, General Fan Ping also strode in, they are all military generals, even at home, they speak and act simply and directly.

But this time, Chi Tonghao and Lu Zhong were very cautious, first asking General Fan Ping to send his subordinates out, and then they began to sit down. The two of them were also very simple, not even polite words, they all took out the letters from their arms, and everyone immediately understood when they saw it, because the letters they took out were all written on the same kind of writing paper, and even the envelopes were exactly the same.

What I didn't expect was that General Fan Ping also took out a letter, and just like theirs, the three of them couldn't help but smile: "It seems that the two adults came to visit, all for this letter?" To be honest, when I received this letter, I was really full of feelings! Unexpectedly, Princess Qianrou still doesn't care about her past suspicions, and still calls me 'Uncle Fan'! ”

"Yes, I didn't expect it, I thought she would blame us, at least we didn't stand up for that mutiny, otherwise she wouldn't have been defeated so badly!" General Lu also said with a little shame.

"But it was indeed for a reason at the beginning, who would have thought that our family would be besieged by Yao Cheng's family! Let's fall into passivity all of a sudden! Chi Tonghao also said a little depressed.

"Hmmm! Well, it doesn't matter which is right or wrong in this matter, Princess Qianrou said so in the letter. And there was a reason for the original incident, the first emperor did not have a sound prince, and Yu Wanfeng had such a genius son as Yu Shichang, which really influenced our behavior! But who would have thought that the five princes of the first emperor would be able to return to normal, and even surpass Yu Shichang in talent......" General Fan also said a little helplessly.

"Yes, not to mention anything else, this kind of epistle paper alone is said to have been created by the fifth prince, that is, the current King Chitose of England, and all kinds of other novel objects, all of which are from his whimsical ideas, even in war, he can make something extraordinary! I'm afraid that Master Chi has experienced this firsthand! General Lu also nodded approvingly and said.

"Alas! It's a shame to say, it's still this British king Chitose who let me go, it was not a fluke at all, and it also saved many of my men! Chi Tonghao said with a little sigh, since the last time he was put back by Zhu Xiaobao, he has been reluctant to face the Northern Zirui Kingdom again, let alone start a war with the Northern Zirui Kingdom.

"Huh! Two generals, I don't think this is a bad thing. Come on, we don't have to be nervous, let's go have a drink or two first, and talk while eating! General Fan said with a smile at this time, and at the same time immediately ordered someone to prepare a night banquet.

After entering the play, they still sent their subordinates away, and there were only three generals left in the living room, but to the surprise of General Chi and General Lu, what Fan Ping took out turned out was the best burning knife, as well as the best tobacco, and what was even more incredible was that the tea served this time turned out to be green tea that was easy to brew and had a refreshing tea fragrance.

"Huh! Don't look at me, I can't buy these things, I can't afford them! This is sent by His Majesty! And it was delivered a quarter of an hour before I received this letter! Isn't it interesting, you say? General Fan Ping smiled meaningfully and said.

"Your Majesty? How could he have these things? Now it is difficult for Nanzirui Kingdom to buy these things, even if His Majesty is noble and can buy these things, there is no need to be so public, now the treasury has no money at all, and even the expenses of the palace have been reduced by half! General Lu Zhong exclaimed in surprise.

"Well, I heard from the father-in-law who sent the reward that these things were given to His Majesty by a Western Turkic trading house, and although the shopkeeper of this trading house is a local businessman, the mastermind behind the scenes is ---- Hachitu! A while ago, Zhu Xiaobao came to the South Zirui Kingdom, and now Hachitu has jumped out, and he is directly giving gifts to His Majesty, do you think this is some coincidence? Hachitu, I know, this person is very shrewd, but he is determined to follow Zhu Xiaobao! Because of his decision, it is now in full swing, and there are already many subordinate tribes under his tribe! And Hachitu can directly appoint the patriarch of the tribe! Fan Ping told him in detail what he knew!

"Brother Fan! You mean Your Majesty ......" Lu Zhong was the most simple and straightforward among the three, so he asked with some hesitation, but he didn't dare to say it thoroughly.

"Hahahaha! Have you noticed that Recently, His Majesty has often let us stay alone, but there is no substantive content, just sighing that peace is precious. and also assigned Yao Cheng to the farthest place! Recently, there is a legend that Zhu Xiaobao defeated Yu Shichang in the inheritance land of the White Tiger clan. And Yu Shichang openly slapped His Majesty on the top of the main hall. Don't Your Majesty have any ideas? General Fan Ping smiled, then lowered his voice and said.

"Yes, yes, yes! I also feel that Your Majesty has changed from the frustration of the past few days, but has a new feeling. And although the military pay has not been settled in the past two days, a lot of meat and vegetables have been delivered, at least now my subordinates have begun to settle down. The strangest thing is that His Majesty also instructed me that those fortifications do not need to be in a hurry, which is completely different from some time ago! Chi Tonghao also nodded again and again.

"Hmmm! The letter also said, please go and persuade Your Majesty, and the two sides should strike and reconcile. What do you say we should do? Lu Zhong also understood a little, but he still didn't know how to deal with it.

"Huh! It doesn't matter what we do, the important thing is that we need to know Your Majesty's attitude, these few times we stayed alone, I think Your Majesty is testing us. Alas, many things are like this, just separated by such a thin layer, it depends on who dares to pierce the ......" Fan Ping is the kind of military general who is both civil and military, so he has always been the backbone of the three people, so after receiving Yu Qianrou's letter, he was not very panicked, but carefully considered. By the time His Majesty sent the reward, he already understood a little.

"Then what should Yao Cheng do? He's a great general, his position is one level higher than ours, and this guy is the most annoying, the last time he besieged my mansion, it was the men and horses he sent out, which made Lao Tzu very passive, otherwise, I wouldn't necessarily stay here! General Lu Zhong said angrily.

It turned out that the three of them were born and died with the former emperor Yu Wanqiang, known as the eight generals back then, and in the end there were only four left, except for one General Fu who desperately followed Yu Qianrou to the North Zirui Kingdom, and the remaining three of them stayed in the South Zirui Kingdom.

But what made the three of them depressed was that Yao Cheng was ten years younger than them, but because he followed Yu Wanfeng, after driving away Yu Qianrou, Yao Cheng was actually promoted to three levels in a row and was named a general. Fan Ping, Chi Tonghao, and Lu Zhong were each promoted by one level, and were named General Dart Banner, General Che Cavalry and General Wei, and their positions were one level lower than Yao Cheng. So Lu Zhong has always been indignant.

But Fan Ping and Chi Tonghao are very calm, Yao Cheng is valued by Yu Wanfeng because of his outstanding performance in chasing and killing Yu Qianrou, they don't want such credit! But they also don't like Yao Cheng very much. Because Yao Cheng wants to command all the armies. But don't look at his position to be one level higher, but Fan Ping, Chi Tonghao and Lu Zhong don't buy his account, everyone performs their own duties and manages their own share. Yao Cheng wanted to intervene several times, but he was pushed back by the three of them. So Lu Zhong is most disgusted with this guy.

"Hey, hey! Lao Lu, this matter is not in a hurry, we will wait to see what His Majesty means, if we really make peace with the Northern Zirui Kingdom, then we are welcome, Yao Cheng rebelled back then, we can put down the rebellion now! General Fan Ping said with a slight sneer.

"Good! I'll be the first to slaughter him! This guy has been too arrogant in the past few years, not only with heavy soldiers, but also with a golden house in every barracks, and a beautiful name for training female soldiers! Over the years, he has also been greedy for a lot of military salaries, and now although he has the largest number of subordinates, he has the most grievances! I can't get used to this! Lu took a big sip of a bowl of wine, and then said loudly.

"Be quiet, this matter still needs to be kept secret, I think we'll see it in a few days!" Fan Ping hurriedly suppressed Lu Zhong and said.

Then the three veterans began to drink heartily, and their mood had completely changed compared to when they came!

……

The next day in the court, General Yao Cheng was venting his dissatisfaction on the main hall: "Lord Qian, where is the cotton clothes and quilts I want?" Now that the weather is getting cooler, if you don't send it again, how can my soldiers go out, let alone build fortifications now? ”

"Back to the general, now that the treasury is tight, it is not easy to be full, and it is Your Majesty who has compressed the daily expenses of the palace in order to ensure the food supply of the army! The others can only be overcome first, but it really can't be done, and last year's cotton clothes will be worn for another year! Master Qian said unhurriedly.

Lord Qian is a civil official, and he is not afraid of this general, and he has long heard that this guy is full of golden houses. So sending him supplies is tantamount to making him squander.

It turns out that this general also has a special hobby, he likes to play with those female soldiers in battle uniforms, according to the current words, it is the temptation of uniforms! In his general's mansion, not only are all female soldiers in charge of guarding, but even the inner house is wearing battle uniforms. General Yao likes to use it at any time, and sometimes when he sees a female soldier on patrol, he will suddenly pull it aside and start to do it unscrupulously, which is no secret, and the ministers of civil and military affairs in the court know it, so most people are very unaccustomed to this general with unique tastes, but because he is Yu Wanfeng's best to protect, he doesn't dare to say anything.

"Then why did Lu Chong's subordinates already receive cotton clothes and quilts for the winter? Aren't you favoring one over the other? Yao Cheng asked with annoyance.

"Hehe, general, I know this very well. General Lu loves soldiers like children, sold his family property, and bought cotton clothes and quilts for the troops for the winter with money, which is really a model for us to learn! Lord Qian said with a strong old god, but his eyes when he looked at General Lu were full of respect.

“…… Hum! General Lu is really rich! Yao Cheng was speechless for a moment, and could only say sourly, and at the same time he was also very jealous of General Lu. Don't look at Lu Zhong is very straightforward, but he took a very smart lady and opened several silk shops, and the business was still very good in the past few years, but it has also deteriorated in the past two years. Therefore, among several generals, Lu Zhong is the richest one.

"Okay, don't talk about it, the treasury is tight now, I hope you adults can still work together, overcome it, and wait until the beginning of spring! There's nothing going on today, Sanchao! Yu Shi'an still said something that was not painful, itchy and nutritious as before.

But after the dispersal of the dynasty, Yu Shi'an left all the four generals behind and invited them to dinner together. But Yao Cheng directly refused, his relationship with the other three generals was very incompatible, so instead of eating together, it was better to go back and find a female soldier to have fun!

"Huh! That's good! General Yao, if you don't do this, divide part of your men and horses and send them to General Lu, his fortifications will be tight, and there will be not enough manpower! Yu Shi'an seemed to be very affectionate and walked out of the hall alone with Yao Cheng, still giving him ideas as he walked.

"Well, I'm nervous there!" Yao Cheng's most taboo thing is to use his men, and he immediately objected.

"Huh! I'm also thinking about you, I'm sending it over now, just in time for the distribution of cotton clothes and quilts, since your men and horses have arrived, can General Lu not distribute them to these soldiers? In a few months, won't it be back under your command? Yu Shi'an whispered.

"Well, I see, thank you, Your Majesty,...... I'll go back and arrange it! Yao Cheng's eyes lit up, yes, this is indeed a very good idea. Although General Lu did not deal with him, he was very caring for those soldiers, and sending some soldiers over could also relieve the pressure on his own salary.

This time, His Majesty finally came up with a good idea. Yao Cheng has always looked down on His Majesty, he originally followed Yu Wanfeng with a hard core, but he didn't expect Yu Wanfeng to give up the throne to Yu Shi'an after being the emperor for two years, and he was busy cultivating. Because after being the emperor, I knew that all kinds of worries were not so comfortable, there were too many trivial things, big and small, Yu Wanfeng regretted it a little at the time, he knew that it was so, and he didn't need to drive Yu Qianrou away!

Then Yu Shi'an rewarded Yao Cheng with 200 jars of water and wine, and 100 heads of cattle and sheep, and finally let Yao Cheng leave satisfied.

When he turned around, Yu Shi'an's face became gloomy, and Yao Cheng's disrespectful attitude towards him had long been remembered by him. But seeing the three generals, Yu Shi'an still showed a kind smile: "Three generals, is it okay to drink and chat with the widow?" The official has just eaten some good wine here! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The three generals bowed in unison and saluted, their hearts were all moved, it seemed that they had consciously sent Yao Cheng away just now, and the next thing should be to get to the point.

"Huh! The three generals don't have to be formal! Wine is good wine, I'm just afraid that some people won't come! Fortunately, there are three old generals here, and I don't worry that these good wines will be wasted! Yu Shi'an said with a smile, and then took the lead out of the main hall and walked towards the imperial dining room, the three generals looked at each other, and then quickly followed......

Sure enough, it was still the best roasted knife that I drank last night, and even the tea was green tea. Surprisingly, Yu Shi'an also gave each person a gift box, which contained eight pieces of the best silky milk soap, as well as two small jars of five-year-old.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! But these things are too precious, this is ......" Fan Ping and the others immediately stood up and thanked him, and then looked at Yu Shi'an suspiciously, in fact, he was waiting for Yu Shi'an to make his words clear!

"Huh! Don't thank me, I don't have these things, they were all sent by a shop, and the owner of the upper bunk is Hachitu! Yu Shi'an waved his hand and smiled.

"Hachitu? Could it be the tycoon Ha Chitu stationed in Lingyue Mountain? Isn't that closely related to Zhu Xiaobao? Fan Ping asked pretending to be surprised.

"Yes! Presumably, all three of them have received Yu Qianrou's letter, right? Yu Shi'an finally couldn't help but break the mystery first.

"Well, I don't know what Your Majesty means, I'll wait for Your Majesty to be the head of the horse!" Fan Ping and the others quickly stood up and said very nervously. At this time, it is the most important thing, if Yu Shi'an doesn't mean that, they can also come back immediately. Didn't you say it, only Your Majesty is looking forward! This is already leaving itself room to maneuver.

"Huh! You don't have to be nervous, I also received a letter from Yu Qianrou. To be honest, I don't want to go to war either! And if we go to war, we will definitely lose...... Do you think I'm comfortable as an emperor? Yu Shi'an smiled a little self-deprecatingly, then drank a small glass of wine, and then casually motioned for the three of them to sit down.

"That'...... Dare to ask Your Majesty, you, the emperor, don't want to ...... Finish? Fan Ping was bold and asked cautiously.

"Take it and see it! This is what Yu Qianrou wrote to me......" Yu Shi'an was very simple, took out the letter directly, and handed it to Fan Ping.

Fan Pingcheng took it in fear, at this time, beads of sweat were already on the heads of the three people, after all, it was a major event to change the situation of the court, who knows if Yu Shi'an really didn't want to be the emperor! The three of them huddled together, read the letter tremblingly, then looked at each other, and returned the letter to Yu Shi'an, and then they were all waiting for Yu Shi'an's next ......
