followed the people who came to summon all the way into the palace, but Gu Zhixing was already ready to say something to himself.

is nothing more than the words that Lu Zhe came to say to him a few days ago.

was led all the way to the door of the imperial study, and the little eunuch who led the way no longer walked forward, but stood respectfully outside the door, lowered his head and whispered: "Lord Wang, please come in, the emperor has been waiting for you inside for a long time." ”

Nodding faintly, Gu Zhixing stretched out his hand to push open the door and walked in.

In the imperial study, Gu Zhao was sitting on the dragon chair, and when he saw Gu Zhixing coming, he didn't greet him as affectionately as usual, but stretched out his hand and pointed to the chair not far away, and said, "Uncle Huang, please take a seat." ”

I knew very well what kind of medicine was being sold in the gourd of this little nephew in front of me, Gu Zhixing didn't say much, just sat on the chair with a cold face to see what he wanted to say.

Gu Zhao had already waved away all the attendants in the imperial study early in the morning, and at this time, except for the little eunuch who came to see the tea, there was no one.

When the little eunuch withdrew, only the two of them were left in the imperial study.

"Uncle Huang drinks tea." Gu Zhao said.

"No need, the emperor called me here in such a hurry, it shouldn't be to invite me to tea, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly." Gu Zhixing turned his head and looked directly into his eyes, as if he wanted to see something from there.

Gu Zhao paused slightly, and he didn't pretend to be polite, he smiled and said: "That's the case, this time to go to the Northern Yuan, the imperial uncle has worked a lot, but although the imperial uncle is arrogant and brave and good at fighting, this Western Saint can't all rely on the imperial uncle alone." ”

"I have recently promoted several new generals from the DPRK, all of them are young and promising, and they will definitely be able to achieve something in the future, but this military power is ...... I'm afraid I'll have to ask Uncle Huang to give up some......" Gu Zhao said tentatively.

Gu Zhixing sneered in his heart, and a dark light slipped under his eyes.

This remark is high-sounding, but I am afraid of ...... Cultivating talents is false, but trying to weaken the power in your own hands is true.

His little nephew is a lot smarter than in previous years.

Merely...... I wonder if he started these thoughts himself, or if someone was in the way?

"Uncle Huang is unwilling?" Seeing that Gu Zhixing didn't speak for a long time, Gu Zhao frowned vaguely.

"How much do you want?" Gu Zhixing went straight to the point and said: "Could it be that you want all the military power in my hands?" ”

Gu Zhao's eyes flickered for a moment when he said that he was in his heart, and then he pretended to look like usual and said, "What is Uncle Huang talking about?" ”

Gu Zhixing raised his eyebrows slightly, and then continued to ask the question just now: "That...... What does the emperor mean ......? ”

Gu Zhao's eyes flickered for a moment, and when he hid under his sleeve, he pressed it tightly, and then said tentatively: "Fifty percent, Uncle Huang will give up fifty percent of the military power under his hands, and I will hand it over to the five generals respectively, and the rest still belongs to Uncle Huang." ”

Fifty out of ...... The ambition is not small.

Gu Zhixing snorted coldly in his heart, he had already foreseen that this would be the result.

"Uncle Huang, this matter was also decided after I discussed with the ministers, and Uncle Huang also knows that I have not been on the throne for a long time, so I should not be able to step down at this time, right?"

Without waiting for Gu Zhixing to speak, Gu Zhao continued to ask, as if he had blocked Gu Zhixing's back road.

Knowing what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, Gu Zhixing was a little too lazy to bother with him, in his heart, the most important thing at the moment was nothing other than Su Mian.

Moreover, even if these fifty percent of the military power is divided, it is only a superficial balance of checks and balances.

I have led the army for many years, so what do I really want to do, with an order, who cares about the five young generals who have just been promoted?

Gu Zhao looked at Gu Zhixing silently, waiting for his reply a little nervously, for fear that Gu Zhixing would suddenly turn his face and turn the palace upside down.

Although it is said that since Su Mian appeared, Uncle Huang's temper has been much more restrained than before,...... But if he really angers him, it will definitely be difficult to end.

Gu Zhixing took a sip of the tea in his hand slowly, then put down the cup, nodded almost invisibly and said: "Yes, if you want to promote newcomers, they must have people under them, but apart from this matter, what else is there?" ”

I didn't expect him to agree so happily, Gu Zhao was slightly stunned, and a trace of joy crossed his eyes: "There is no other matter, I will let people do the matter of military power in the next few days, and the imperial uncle might as well stay in the palace today and ...... together."

"I don't need to have lunch, I still have some things in my house." Without waiting for Gu Zhao to finish speaking, Gu Zhixing directly rejected him, nodded slightly, and walked towards the door of the imperial study.

Gu Zhao was originally just polite, so he didn't stop him, watching him walk away, the smile on his face disappeared, and there was something in his eyes that he was bound to get.

Military power is just the beginning, and what you want is far more than that......

……

Coming out of the palace, Gu Zhixing went back to the palace directly.

Still thinking about Su Mian in his heart, as soon as he entered the door, he walked directly towards Su Mian's residence, and then was stopped in front of him.

"Lord Wang, just now that you have just left with your front foot, Lu Gongzi has come and is waiting for you in the study at this time." The old steward in the palace spoke slowly.

Gu Zhixing's footsteps paused, and he glanced helplessly in the direction where Su Mian lived, and then raised his feet and turned around and walked in the direction of the study.

"Lord Wang." Lu Zhe was waiting in the study, and almost as soon as he heard Gu Zhixing's footsteps, he immediately got up from his chair and walked out.

"I just heard from a friend in the palace that the emperor sent someone to call the prince into the palace, so he hurried over." Lu Zhe's expression was a little anxious, and he lowered his voice and asked, "The emperor is in a hurry to see the prince, but he is in a hurry to say ...... That thing? ”

"Yes." Gu Zhixing nodded disapprovingly, his expression unshocked.

Lu Zhe was not as relaxed as him, and when he heard his affirmative answer, his brows furrowed even tighter: "What did the emperor say?" ”

"He took some of my military power away, saying that he wanted to give it to the newly promoted generals, and I agreed." Gu Zhixing said lightly, poured himself a cup of tea, and sat down on the chair next to him.

Lu Zhe seemed to be frozen in place, and only after a while did he ask with some hesitation: "That...... How much military power did the prince promise to distribute? ”

"Fifty percent." Gu Zhixing's tone was plain, as if it was not the military power that was divided, but fifty percent of the fields.

Lu Zhe was startled by the sturdiness, and the whole person almost jumped up.

"That's fifty percent military power!" He looked at Gu Zhixing in disbelief.

"So what?" Gu Zhixing asked calmly.

"If the military power is handed over like this, if it is in the future...... ...... future" Lu Zhe's brows furrowed, and he didn't know what tricky things he had in mind.

"Lu Zhe." Gu Zhixing suddenly opened his mouth and shouted at him: "What do you think...... What does it mainly rely on to lead troops to fight? ”

Lu Zhe was stunned, and almost subconsciously replied without hesitation: "Naturally, it depends on the technology of arranging troops and the generals who can stabilize the morale of the army. ”

Gu Zhi nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, since you think so, let's not talk about the fifty percent of the military power left in my hand, just the fifty percent handed over, if Gu Zhao really wants to use them to do something to me, what do you think are the chances of success?" And how many people will obey the orders of those who are new to office and have not fought a single battle? ”

Lu Zhe was slightly stunned, and instantly understood what Gu Zhixing meant.

What he said is not wrong, leading troops to fight a war depends not only on technology, but also on people's hearts.

Although Gu Zhixing is feared by everyone in Xisheng, everyone relies on his protection, because he has never lost.

It is precisely because Xisheng has such a "big demon king" as Gu Zhixing that everyone has heard of it, that no outsiders have dared to invade it, and if there is really one, the end will only be worse than the previous Su Rou.

At the moment, it is said that Gu Zhixing gave up fifty percent of the military power, but it is better to say that he took the initiative to throw out fifty percent of the military power and let Gu Zhao raise it for himself, if he really wants to do something, as long as he gives an order, the army will inevitably respond.

At that time, all that was left of the court was a few fledgling generals and a bunch of old ministers.

"It's still the prince who is calm, and I'm still ......" Lu Zhe also came back to his senses at this time, and felt that his anxious appearance just now couldn't help but feel a little funny.

"You care about me too." Gu Zhixing stood up and reached out to pat Lu Zhe's shoulder.

Since he came here, there are only a handful of people around him who really care about him, and Lu Zhe is one of them.

"I'm not in the mood to deal with Gu Zhao now, if he wants to do something, just do it, as long as it doesn't go too far, once I can ignore it, after all, if I have extra time, I'd rather spend it with Ah Mian more." Gu Zhixing suddenly spoke.

didn't expect the two of them to talk about such a serious matter, Gu Zhixing also wanted to mention Su Mian, Lu Zhe felt a little speechless for a while, but he was helpless.

Ay...... I should have thought of it a long time ago, Su Mian finally picked up a life from the hands of the King of Hades, and Gu Zhixing naturally put him first at this moment.

It's okay in this way, so as not to worry about this lord from time to time when he sees that the one on the throne is not pleasing to the eye, and suddenly decides to take power himself, turning the entire Xisheng upside down.

"What about Su Mian? How were these two days? Speaking of Su Mian, Lu Zhe asked casually.

Gu Zhixing instantly had a smile on his face: "I was just about to go out with Ah Mian, and when I came back, I came here directly, and I should go and see her at this time." ”

Realizing that his continued stay here should disturb the two of them, Lu Zhe took the initiative to say goodbye and leave.

Gu Zhixing didn't send it much, and walked out of the study with him towards Su Mian's residence.

In the courtyard, Su Mian was sitting at the table with her chin propped up, looking up at the sky boredly, looking listless.

Am I being raised by Gu Zhixing with some strange habits?

Why doesn't he stick around me, he still seems to be a little bored......
