Yesterday, he dared to say to Chu Tianyi like that, firstly, because he felt that Chu Tianyi definitely wanted this position, since he wanted this position, then he would not say it and increase the danger to himself, and secondly, he felt that Chu Tianyi married Jiang Lige, it must be to obtain the support of the Jiang family, and what he said in front of him yesterday was just talking, and since Chu Tianyi wanted to take revenge, he would not say this to Jiang Ao, and Jiang Ao would definitely stop him if he said this, although Emperor Jianwen was afraid of Jiang Ao, he had to admit that Jiang Ao did what he said, and said that he was not involved in party disputes. That's going to be far away.

Emperor Jianwen couldn't figure out what Jiang Ao thought, although Jiang Ao had known him for more than 20 years, but in fact, in many things, he didn't know Jiang Ao as well as Jiang Ao knew him.

asked quietly, "What is the matter with Zhenbei Hou coming today?" But what do you need to decide on military matters for me? "I have to say that the royal people, each of them is a natural actor, and it is not ordinary people to pretend to be confused with this understanding.

Jiang Ao knelt down directly, and his knees hit the ground with a loud sound.

Emperor Jianwen was shocked in his heart, as if he was frightened: "Zhenbei Hou, what are you doing here?" Hurriedly stepped forward and wanted to help the person up, but unfortunately the other party did not move.

In the end, he said helplessly: "Zhenbei Hou, you get up first, and talk slowly if you have something." ”

Jiang Ao resolutely said: "Your Majesty, the last general is too old to occupy a position in the court anymore, and the last general just wants to return to the countryside, enjoy the joy of family, and ask the emperor to be fulfilled." ”

A man in the prime of life said this, which is very disobedient, but now a serious occasion does not allow people to think too much.

Emperor Jianwen was shocked in his heart, but he didn't expect him to fight this idea.

seemed to be extremely sad and said: "Brother Jiang, what are you talking about!" If you were old, wouldn't I be half cut into the ground? ”

Jiang Ao said: "Your Majesty, the last general Rong Ma has been half his life, and his family has always been less and more separated, and he feels very indebted, and now that Nanchu and Beifeng are living in peace, the last general no longer has anything to worry about, he just wants to be with his wife and children, make up for the shortcomings of so many years, and hope that the emperor will be loyal for so many years, and for the sake of the country, he will fulfill the small wish of the last general." ”

Emperor Jianwen sighed and said sadly: "Why did Brother Jiang say this? Yesterday, it must have been Yi'er who misinterpreted my meaning, how could Brother Jiang doubt our relationship over this? Others don't know about me, don't you know? The child is young, and he has grievances, and it is understandable to accidentally say something wrong, if Brother Jiang is alienated as a brother because of this, he is really sad to die for his brother. ”

Jiang Ao also had a moment of confusion, Chu Tianyi did say it last night, maybe Chu Tianyi really misinterpreted, but Jiang Ao felt that no matter what the facts were, he should retire after completing his work, and now it is an opportunity.

continued: "Thanks to the emperor's love for many years, the last general can show his ambitions, and now the last general is in a high position, and he has nothing to ask for, may the emperor agree to the last general." ”

Emperor Jianwen seemed to be embarrassed: "But looking at the court, only Brother Jiang is in charge, if Brother Jiang leaves ruthlessly, won't I have no one to use?" ”

Jiang Ao saw that Emperor Jianwen had the intention of loosening, and made persistent efforts to say: "The emperor's words are bad, there are many talents in the court, Wen Youning Prime Minister, Liubu Shangshu, Dali Siqing, Yushitai, Wu Youchang and other rising generations, the end will leave, maybe it can promote the descendants to a higher level, the emperor really doesn't have to worry about no one available." ”

Emperor Jianwen choked, and felt a little irritable in his heart, when did Jiang Ao become so eloquent? It seems that in unknown places, Jiang Ao is also changing.

What Emperor Jianwen didn't know was that any person who was like a blank sheet of paper would become smooth after being washed by officialdom, not to mention that Jiang Ao was in the center of politics.

Emperor Jianwen said: "Although the Southern Chu and Beifeng are now a truce, but if Brother Jiang leaves, I can't guarantee that the Northern Phoenix will make a comeback, and besides, the barbarians on the border of Southern Chu are frequently in turmoil, and they are afraid that the war is about to break out." ”

Jiang Ao pondered for a moment and said: "The emperor knows what the situation of Beifeng is now, the little emperor of Beifeng and the auxiliary political king are fighting to the death, maybe we can still take advantage of the fisherman, the border barbarians are just a group of clowns who jump off the beam, they can't set off a big storm, the emperor governs the country in a way, Nanchu is now stable inside and outside, and there is really no need to worry about what will happen if he doesn't come to the end." ”

These words not only made clear the current situation of Nanchu, but also inadvertently patted Emperor Jianwen's ass.

Emperor Jianwen finally had to compromise and said: "Brother Jiang insists on this, how can I stop it again?" It's just that Brother Jiang is in an important position, and I can't find a suitable person to replace me for a while, and I hope that Brother Jiang will guard this position for me first, and when the right person appears, Brother Jiang will not be too late to leave. ”

Jiang Ao knew that now was the best result, and said respectfully: "The last general will obey the order." ”

When Jiang Ao returned to the study in the evening, Jiang Lige Chu Tianyi was already waiting in the study.

Seeing Jiang Ao's uncertain expression, Jiang Lige stepped forward and asked, "Daddy, has the emperor agreed?" ”

Jiang Ao shook his head.

Jiang Lige exclaimed: "The emperor doesn't agree? Is it true that there is no turning place? ”

Chu Tianyi seemed to have expected it, and pulled Jiang Lige and said, "Lige, don't worry." ”

Jiang Ao glanced at Chu Tianyi appreciatively and said, "The emperor didn't fully agree. ”

Chu Tianyi said: "Is it to let Daddy sit in his current position first, and then leave when the right person comes?" ”

Jiang Ao said: "That's right. ”

Jiang Lige said worriedly: "In this way, wouldn't it be a day when we can't find a suitable person, and we won't be able to leave for a day?" ”

Jiang Ao nodded and said, "That's true." ”

Chu Tianyi said: "Now is the best result. "That person not only wants to bring down the Jiang family, but also wants to protect his reputation for generosity and benevolence, so he naturally dragged it back, and then started when the time is right.

All three were silent.

After a while, Jiang Ao said: "You are also tired, go back first, now Daddy is in good health, and he can still support the Jiang family, everything has Daddy, don't worry." ”

The two said respectfully, "Yes." "Ready to turn and leave.

Jiang Ao said as if remembering something: "You two should hurry up, Daddy can't wait to be a grandfather." ”

Jiang Lige's face was a little red, and he said unnaturally: "Daddy, this depends on fate, how can you have it if you want to leave the song?" ”

A trace of loneliness flashed on Chu Tianyi's face.

Jiang Ao smiled: "Anyway, you just work hard." ”

Jiang Lige smiled: "Yes, yes, I will definitely let you become a grandfather as soon as possible." ”

Jiang Aomei smiled, as if he remembered something, and said: "Lige, you have been away from Beijing for more than a month, can you solve the matter of grain and grass?" ”

Jiang Lige said: "It's solved, and it's a lot cheaper, you can rest assured." ”

Jiang Ao smiled: "You do things, where is Daddy not at ease?" Now that Daddy's military affairs are busy, you should take care of the Black Cavalry here. ”

Jiang Lige said: "Yes." As if thinking of something, he said again: "This time I went to a few places with Ah Yi and found that the second prince was targeting our Jiang family. ”

Jiang Ao frowned and said, "Are you sure it's the second prince?" ”

Jiang Lige affirmed: "Exactly." and Jiang Yi, the concubine of Jiang Shangshu's family. ”

Jiang Ao said: "We haven't lost anything left and right, don't pay attention to them." ”

Jiang Lige said respectfully: "Yes,"

It seemed to invite merit and said: "This time, Ah Yi also blew up the arsenal of the second prince." ”

Jiang Ao smiled: "It's really a big woman." And he said, "What armory?" ”

Jiang Lige told Chu Yilou what he found.

After listening to this, Jiang Ao sighed: "It's another battle for the throne." ”

Jiang Lige turned to Chu Tianyi and said, "Ah Yi, you go back first, I have something to say to Daddy." ”

Chu Tianyi didn't ask what it was, and said dotingly: "Okay." He knew that Jiang Lige was going to talk about the throne.

After speaking, he saluted Jiang Ao and turned to leave.

Chu Tianyi closed the door of the study.

Jiang Ao quipped: "Tianyi is obedient to you. ”

Jiang Lige was dissatisfied: "Daddy, what are these words!" Most of the time I follow him, okay? Who is your biological son between me and Ah Yi? ”

Jiang Ao smiled: "Your temper is getting bigger and bigger now, and you are used to talking about it." ”

Jiang Lige felt a little sad, obviously she was used to Ah Yi, but Ah Yi was indeed used to her, so she reluctantly admitted it.

Jiang Ao saw that she was a little embarrassed, so he didn't say anything more, and stepped into the main topic and said, "You want to talk about Ah Yi about the throne, right?" ”

Jiang Lige was a little embarrassed and said, "I can't hide anything from Daddy." What does Daddy think? ”

Jiang Ao pondered: "Tianyi is a good one, Daddy saw that although he had a bad fate since he was a child, he was plain, although he had never been to the Royal Academy, he had a good speech, a unique point of view, and no ambiguity in dealing with things, the most commendable thing is that he has a kind heart, which is indeed suitable." But leaving the song, our Jiang family is not involved in party disputes. ”

Jiang Lige wanted to help Chu Tianyi, Jiang Ao actually didn't feel strange at all, the people of his Jiang family were naturally very short-sighted.

Jiang Lige was a little frustrated: "Daddy, if you get the help of the Jiang family, Ah Yi will be much easier." ”

Jiang Ao said with an iron heart: "Lige, let's not say that the Jiang family will never be involved in party disputes, now that the prince has been established, it is natural to ascend the throne, Tianyi is not a grandson, even if he is enthroned, it is not justified, if he wants that position, he will fight for it, Daddy will not stop it, but Daddy will never support it." ”

Jiang Lige said without giving up: "Even if the emperor wants to target the Jiang family, won't you support Ah Yi?" ”

Jiang Ao said: "Leaving the song, the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die, even if the emperor can't tolerate the Jiang family, Daddy won't be sorry for the emperor." ”

Jiang Lige said in frustration: "Lige understands." ”

Jiang Ao said earnestly: "Leaving the song, the days are still long." ”

Jiang Lige said worriedly: "Among all the princes, only the crown prince did not make a move against Ah Yi, if other princes ascend the throne, Ah Yi is only afraid that it will be ......."

Jiang Ao smiled: "What a stupid girl, Daddy won't help Tianyi, but Tianyi is a member of our family, Daddy will never let outsiders hurt him half a point." ”

Jiang Lige was moved: "Daddy, you are so good. "The best thing for her in this world is probably her father, this love house and Wu alone are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
