Liu De went to visit Princess Shiyi on the second day, there was no palace in Liaocheng, and of course he couldn't be too wronged by Her Royal Highness the Princess, so Xun Yu arranged Her Royal Highness the Princess in a more gorgeous mansion, and the owner of this mansion had been executed because of zào fǎn.

Although the mansion is large, except for a few maids who serve and the people who guard the door, there are not many people in the mansion at all.

"Weichen meets Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Liu De bowed to Her Royal Highness the princess in front of him.

Father-in-law Xi wiped his tears happily next to him and said: "As soon as the general of the chariot rider came out of the horse, it was natural that the horse was successful, and now that the thief is dead, I think the first emperor has knowledge and can look at it!" ”

When Princess Shiyi learned that Liu De had returned with the army and that Cao Thief had died, she cried with joy on the spot, and her tears couldn't stop falling, she had suffered too much pressure in her heart that was not what she should be under at this age, her father died of illness, her mother committed suicide, her family was slaughtered, she fled desperately all the way, and even was almost killed several times, thanks to the alertness of her father-in-law, she survived.

Princess Shiyi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "This palace said that if you take the head of the Cao thief, I will marry you!" Hongu talks and counts..."

The sweat on Liu De's forehead came out instantly, not to mention the AA-level scenic spot of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the age of twelve.

It's the identity of the princess that is enough for her own headache, and it doesn't matter if the princess of the dead country dies, but Luanzhou Ji Yuan established a new monarch, continued the imperial system, and the Great Zhou Dynasty was not dead.

Only Yang Tianlong relied on the wealth of Jizhou and the strong armor under his command, which called the emperor the founding of the country, but he was not recognized by the people of the world at all, and called Yang Tianlong a pseudo-emperor.

Although Liu De himself is ambitious, his current military strength is not even half of Yang Tianlong's, so on the surface, he must regard himself as a courtier of the Great Zhou.

Therefore, as a courtier of the Great Zhou, Liu De refused to offend Shiyi at all, judging from Shiyi's current identity, he should be Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the Great Zhou, and her status is so noble.

Liu De organized the language and said: "The minister is afraid, it is the duty of the minister to kill the Cao thief, the princess must not be like this, besides, the minister has already made a marriage, the princess is noble, how can she be the queen?" ”

Liu De's meaning is very obvious, Your Royal Highness Princess, don't make trouble, I'm going to marry a wife, with the dignity of your identity, you must not be a small one! Or take back your fate!

"Then you quit the kiss!"

Princess Shiyi said quite domineeringly.

Liu De: "..."

Liu De can see the character of this princess of Shiyi clearly, this is an aunt and grandmother! Although it has been sharpened a lot because of a series of things, it actually has the domineering of being a princess.

It is impossible for Liu De to marry the princess, at least it is impossible now, the main reason is that if he marries Shiyi, then Chen Ying's identity will inevitably drop a lot, from the main wife to the concubine, Chen Ying may not care, but don't you take Chen Shuo and them in your eyes?

What will they think?

These are all things that Liu De needs to consider, as the wife of a prince, it has little to do with love, and only the interests of all parties are involved.

In fact, with Liu De's ability, it is very simple not to marry Princess Shiyi, and directly send someone to imprison Shiyi, but it is still the same sentence, as a courtier of the Great Zhou, imprison the princess, is it zào fǎn baa!

Liu De is not Cao Zhuo!

It is also a damage to Liu De's reputation!

Father-in-law Xi on the side still has a vision, and said to Princess Shiyi: "Your Highness, the marriage is not a trivial matter, especially about you, but you can't be sloppy!" Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, we must first contact the current royal family and the imperial court! ”

Liu De secretly gave a thumbs up to his father-in-law, this teammate is reliable!

Princess Shiyi thought about it, and it was the same, so she had to nod her head and agree.

For Liu De, as long as the princess is slowly dragged down, the future will be up to her. The most important thing now is to deal with the attack of Yang Tianlong's 300,000 army.

Liu Debai left Princess Shiyi and went directly to the mansion.

Liu De instructed Dian Wei: "You go to the prison and bring Yang Tianhao to the mansion!" ”

Yang Tianhao is a member of the Yang clan and serves as the garrison of Liaocheng, but after the capture of Liaocheng, he was captured by the Dongyu army and imprisoned until now.

After a while, Dian Wei walked into the mansion and told Liu De: "Lord, Yang Tianhao has been brought!" ”

The two tiger guards behind Dian Wei escorted this Yang Tianhao, but looking at Yang Tianhao's expression, it was not bad, although there was no zì yóu, but there was no nuè dài.

"Untie General Yang!" Liu De waved his hand and said.

A tiger guard untied the rope that was tied to Yang Tianhao's hand, and Yang Tianhao shook his wrist, and several rope marks were strangled from the rope on his wrist.

Yang Tianhao smiled and said: "General Liu's demeanor is still the same!" I heard that the general killed Cao Zhuo, who was in the world of cholera, has been named the general of Yanzhou Mu and Che Cavalry by the newly established imperial court, which is really a great joy! Congratulations to the general! ”

"I didn't expect General Yang to be so well-informed in prison!"

Liu De ordered Huwei to bring two cups of hot tea and stretched out his hand to signal.

Yang Tianhao was not polite, picked up the teacup, blew it gently, took a sip slowly, and replied: "These are all from the jailer, after all, in prison, there is nothing else to do except some books." ”

Liu De nodded, noncommittal, and no longer talking nonsense, and asked directly: "Presumably the generals know what I called you over!" ”

Yang Tianhao said: "If it is not bad as expected, it is something about the Yang family!" After all, now that the Yang family's 300,000 troops are gathered under Jinyang Pass, even if Jinyang Pass is strong, it will still be breached sooner or later, after all, how can there be a city in the world that cannot be breached? ”

After a pause, Yang Tianhao continued: "But I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint General Che Cai, although I am a member of the Yang family, and I can even call Yang Tianlong a clan brother in Xia, but in fact, I am not reused in the Yang family, and I don't know much about the confidential information of the Yang family, not to mention that I have been locked up in prison for several months, even if I know something, I am afraid that it will be outdated!" ”

"Haha, General Yang don't have to worry about anything, I won't coerce you to say some secrets of the Yang family, but let's talk about the generals under Yang Tianlong!" Liu De took a sip of tea.

"The general of the cavalry still wants to get some information from here!"

Of course, Yang Tianhao saw Liu De's intentions, but he didn't refute it again, when Yang Tianhao was first captured, he was bent on death and was unwilling to betray the Yang family.

Now Yang Tianhao will not betray the Yang family, but after being imprisoned for so long, the desire to die has long been extinguished, and he doesn't want to die.

Although Yang Tianhao is locked up in prison, in fact, his wife and children live in Liaocheng, but they are being monitored, at least zì yóu, and often go to the prison to visit Yang Tianhao, this is Liu De's psychological offensive, in order to gradually disintegrate Yang Tianhao's psychological defense.

You see, we have done our best to you and your wife and children!

You should at least save face!

Yang Tianhao is iron-hearted, and gradually lost his hostility towards Liu De, and wanted to protect his wife and children, so he had to cooperate with Liu De and tell him something he wanted to know, which was okay, Liu De just asked the generals of the Yang family, this is not a secret, and he can inquire deeply, and for Yang Tianhao, there is less guilt.

Yang Tianhao held the teacup in his hand and said, "What does the general want to know?" ”

Liu De crossed his arms around his chest and said, "I heard Yan He talk about Uncle Yang, saying that he is the first general under Yang Tianlong?" ”

"Uncle Yang! He's amazing! ”

Yang Tianhao fell into the memory, "He is a few years older than me, his mother was originally a maid, but later died of illness, but according to the grapevine, Uncle Yang's mother was beaten to death by Yang Tianlong's mother, and then this rumor was suppressed, and finally it was over." Uncle Yang's father, that is, the head of the Yang family at that time, didn't remember that he had such a son. ”

Liu De kept this article in mind, and perhaps at a critical time, this rumor can play a huge role.

"At that time, there were collateral clansmen who saw that Uncle Yang was pitiful, so they adopted him, and then Uncle Yang joined the army, and he went to Beizhou, because the Qiang people made a rebellion and violated my border, no one thought that Uncle Yang was gradually promoted because of his repeated military exploits, and he won several battles in Beizhou, and his reputation spread throughout half of Hebei! Only then did the head of the family know that Uncle Yang was his son! ”

When Yang Tianhao said this, he chuckled: "It's ridiculous!" ”

Then he continued: "When the border war gradually subsided, the head of the family recalled Uncle Yang back to Beiping, and entrusted him with the important task of pacifying the bandits several times, and even once attacked a Dazhai of nearly 10,000 people.

Our group of peers were also dumbfounded, at that time they all thought that Uncle Yang was lucky, but they didn't expect that they relied on their real strength. ”

"Then Yang Tianlong took over the position of the head of the Yang family and served as the Taishou of Beiping, and then Yang Tianlong wanted to pacify Jizhou, that is, Uncle Yang was the handsome, Liyang, Changyang, etc., most of Jizhou was beaten down by Uncle Yang, and I don't know much about the things in the back."

Liu De's expression is still quite dignified, it seems that Uncle Yang's ability is indeed very strong, and according to Yan He's ability, guarding Jinyang Pass can only hold out for two months, which can also explain some problems, that is Jinyang Pass!

Liu De said: "But this time it was Yang Tiantian who led the army, and Yang Tianlong did not appoint Uncle Yang as the main general. ”

Yang Tianhao explained: "Uncle Yang has led the army for more than 20 years, and his prestige in the army is higher than that of Yang Tianlong, with 300,000 soldiers and horses, it is understandable that Yang Tiantian will not let Uncle Yang be the main general!" ”

"It seems that Yang Tianlong is quite jealous of Uncle Yang!" Liu De said.

Yang Tianhao shrugged his shoulders and did not speak, obviously acquiescing to Liu De's statement.

"What do you think of Yang Tianlong being called emperor!" Liu De suddenly changed the topic.

Yang Tianhao's face instantly became gloomy, although his status was not high, but judging from the various signs of Yang Tianlong and Yang Zichuan, Yang Tianlong had long been waiting for the opportunity to become the emperor.

Cao Zhuo's cholera Zhongzhou, the majesty of the imperial court was lost, the little emperor was killed, the jade seal was in his hands, Yang Tianlong finally couldn't bear it anymore and ascended the throne and became the emperor!

Yang Tianhao is an understanding person, this is Liu De's evaluation of Yang Tianhao, but it is useless!

Yang Tianlong and a group of clan elders have long been carried away by yù àng, they think that with the prestige and strength of the Yang family, even if they can't unify the world, it is a simple matter to tear the earth and seal the king, but they underestimated the reaction of the people in the world.

"They're too anxious, they can wait!"

In the end, Yang Tianhao said his true thoughts, maybe he held it for too long!

Then Liu De asked again, and other famous generals under Yang Tianlong, Yang Tianhao was escorted back to prison.

"It's time to head to Jinyang Pass!"

Liu Dexin said.

At this time, Dian Wei came to say: "My lord, General Gongsun has come to pay a visit!" ”

Although most of the generals knew that Gongsun Qi had changed his name to Bai Qi, they still used to call him Gongsun Qi.

"Let him in!" Liu De said.

Bai Qilong walked in and kowtowed to Liu De: "The last general will meet the lord!" ”

"Get up!"

Liu De waved his hand and asked, "General Bai is here, is there anything wrong?" ”

Bai Qi said: "The last general wants to go to the grassland, one is to see the war horses of Ma Yi, and the other is to plunder some war horses to supplement the cavalry." ”

Liu De pondered for a moment and said, "General Bai, do you remember what I said?" ”

"What do you mean?"

Liu De stretched out a finger and said, "I promise you to recruit 10,000 infantry troops, and the cavalry will also give you the authority of 5,000 people, I want you to pull up this team as soon as possible, do you have confidence?" ”

Bai Qi looked bowed, and bowed his hand: "The last general will definitely live up to the trust of the lord!" ”

"Good! Go! I want to see the formation of the military formation in three months' time, don't let me down! Liu De said.

"Yes!"

Bai Qi turned around and left, Liu De believed that with Bai Qi's ability, he would soon be able to train a strong legion, there was no doubt about it.

Three months later, in the spring of next year, that is the time for yourself to truly fǎn gōng.

The current tactics can be called:

Defend and counterattack!

Liu De convened Chen Shuo, Xun Yu, Yan Nan and others to discuss the matter, and after everyone arrived, Liu De stood up and said, "General Ben has decided to go to Jinyang Pass in person!" ”

"If the lord goes, he will be able to lift the morale of the army!" Yan Nanxiao patted Liu De's ass.

Liu Dedao: "Next, Liaocheng will be handed over to you!" ”

"Please rest assured!"

Next, Liu De returned to the mansion, warmed up with the concubines, and then said goodbye to his sister-in-law.

The only thing that made Liu De feel embarrassed was that little Liu Jia muttered, obviously because Liu De did not fulfill his promise and said that he would accompany her to play.

Liu De just rubbed Liu Jia's little head vigorously, and bluntly said that when he came back, he would definitely accompany Jia'er.

Qian didn't say anything, but there was still a trace of worry in his eyes, and he just told Liu De to pay attention to safety.

But when Ma Yuxuan was alone with Liu De, she said to Liu De: "Husband, General Guan has too many soldiers and horses, which is not a good thing!" ”

Liu De glanced at Ma Yuxuan deeply and didn't say anything.
