Chapter Seventy-Eight: Actually, It's a Burden

After the next dynasty.

Chu Nanyue walked outside the palace gate alone.

Zhao Jingyu behind him quickly caught up, with a smile on his face: "I should say hello to General Chu, is General Chu still happy today?" ”

Chu Nanyue looked at him with a happy expression, and couldn't react for a moment to what he did today.

"Where does the joy come from?" Chu Nanyue asked rhetorically.

Whether it was Zhao Jingyu's performance in the court or her refutation on the spot, for Chu Nanyue, there was nothing gratifying about it, but it made her so angry that she was helpless.

Seeing the undisguised indifference on Chu Nanyue's face, Zhao Jingyu suddenly didn't understand: "I suddenly remembered this matter today, and I didn't have any hope when I proposed it, and I didn't want the emperor to agree." I helped General Chu increase the garrison on the outskirts of Beijing from 20,000 to 50,000. Aren't you happy that there are more generals under General Chu? ”

He had a good impression of Chu Nanyue's style of acting, and felt that as a general, the army under his command was the most important.

Now that he has helped Chu Nanyue take the initiative to fight for more military power, Chu Nanyue should be grateful to him, Zhao Jingyu didn't understand why Chu Nanyue had such an abnormal reaction.

"Didn't Lord Zhao hear that when Lord Zhao just finished speaking, I raised an objection at that time?" Chu Nanyue said.

Zhao Jingyu couldn't help but be embarrassed: "But I just thought at the time that it was General Chu's thin face." ”

When he heard Chu Nanyue's words of prevarication, he just thought that he was like other officials in the court, although he said a few words, but in the end he was happy in his heart.

But looking at Chu Nanyue's meaning now, it turned out that Chu Nanyue really wanted to refuse at that time. After this toss, he became thankless.

"General Chu doesn't think that more soldiers will become your help?" Zhao Jingyu asked. "The other generals can't ask for it, but you keep rejecting my kindness."

Speaking of this, Zhao Jingyu smiled bitterly, Chu Nanyue's hostility towards him all the time probably never disappeared.

"Lord Zhao thinks that the ability of the army is better than the number?" Chu Nanyue asked calmly.

She didn't know why Zhao Jingyu took the initiative to fight for her so much, but the current result was undoubtedly self-defeating.

The sudden increase in the number of garrisons on the outskirts of Beijing was not necessarily a good thing for the original garrison.

Not to mention that it takes time to integrate the soldiers with each other, not to mention, from the very beginning, he has made many deployments to his soldiers to let them perform their duties.

But what about the 30,000 new arrivals? Maybe they won't listen to their orders at all. And the disparity in the number of old and new soldiers is also worrying.

"Isn't it?" Zhao Jingyu was still puzzled.

In his opinion, there is such a big difference between 20,000 Tuntian soldiers and 50,000 Tuntian soldiers. He didn't believe that this would not help Chu Nanyue in any way.

Chu Nanyue shook his head. I just think his idea is too simple. The person who has just entered the officialdom has such a simple idea, but he has failed Concubine Hui's original intention of placing him in the military department.

"The soldiers under my command are never in numbers, but in fine." Chu Nanyue explained.

The run-in between the commander and the soldier takes time. The soldiers under her command are all conscientious and conscientious, whether they are tuntian or patrolling.

And most importantly, the soldiers' trust in her.

Zhao Jingyu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "In that case, doesn't General Chu have the confidence to let the new soldiers be as capable as before?" ”

These words originally showed Zhao Jingyu's confidence in Chu Nanyue, but Chu Nanyue heard other meanings from them.

Her former vigilance has reappeared.

Just as she never felt that Zhao Jingyu would do anything for her regardless of the return, whether it was in the previous life or in this life.

The eagerness and excitement in Zhao Jingyu's tone was not like it was for her, but more like it was for himself. The simplicity of his genius is real or pretended, Chu Nanyue doesn't know.

"Lord Zhao is serving in the Ministry of War, is it going well?" Chu Nanyue did not answer the rhetorical question.

She vaguely felt that Zhao Jingyu's current abnormality was more because Zhao Jingyu was planning for herself.

"It's going well, thank you General Chu for your concern." Zhao Jingyu said.

Chu Nanyue looked at Zhao Jingyu's expression, his tone was relaxed, and it didn't look like he was lying.

Then it seems that Zhao Jingyu is indeed like a fish in water in the Ministry of War. He has Concubine Hui's secret support for him, and the help of the entire Zhao family, I believe that he will definitely be able to eat in the military department.

According to Chu Nanyue's understanding, the power composition of the military department has always been complicated. Zhao Jingyu integrated into the military department on behalf of the Zhao family, which was more like an act of fighting for food.

And Zhao Jingyu took the initiative to intervene in her affairs this time, is it just for her Chu Nanyue's benefit?

Chu Nanyue didn't think that he would be so kind, and deliberately increased the number of soldiers for himself. So what is his implicit intention?

Chu Nanyue thought of the Zhao family behind Zhao Jingyu, and even Concubine Yu Hui and Dongling Hong.

If part of the power of the Ministry of War has to be obtained by one person, then in their opinion, it is naturally best for her to have no family to rely on. With small power as a favor, and the favor so exerted is expected to be reciprocated by her.

"General Chu, you haven't answered my words yet." Zhao Jingyu reminded.

Chu Nanyue thought for a moment before she said indifferently: "The word confidence is too vain. But since the emperor has handed over the matter of managing the army of the garrison on the outskirts of Beijing, I will naturally complete it. I will never divulge anything that involves military secrets. And Lord Zhao only needs to worry about his own affairs more, which is enough. ”

As the emperor said. The garrison on the outskirts of Beijing increased from 20,000 to 50,000, but the final ruler was still Chu Nanyue. Even if Zhao Jingyu is the proposer this time, he is only responsible for scheduling on behalf of the Ministry of War.

Mobilize troops from the side, once the army is enriched into the garrison on the outskirts of Beijing, and then everything has nothing to do with Zhao Jingyu.

Zhao Jingyu is not even qualified to know all Chu Nanyue's orders in the army, let alone secrets in the army.

Zhao Jingyu's face suddenly froze, he didn't expect to talk to Chu Nanyue about it now, and it would become such an ending again.

So Zhao Jingyu had no choice but to say, "Thank you General Chu for reminding me." Deeply trusted by the emperor, I will naturally be very concerned about this transfer of troops. It's just that there will be more cooperation with General Chu in the future, and I hope that General Chu will cooperate at that time. ”

"Hmm." Chu Nanyue nodded lightly, which was considered a promise.

Outside the palace gate, after separating from Zhao Jingyu, Chu Nanyue was silent and didn't say a word.

Qingshuang thought that something was wrong and kept asking, but Chu Nanyue had to tell her about it.

"The general is saying that Lord Zhao wants to buy you." Qingshuang Road.

"It's not a buy, it's a use." Chu Nanyue shook his head and said.

What Chu Nanyue didn't say was that she had benefits on the surface, but in fact she had more burdens. It is not a seemingly simple Zhao Jingyu who wants to suppress and use her, but the entire Zhao family behind him.
