Xu Ling's voice was very calm: "According to Your Majesty's intentions, tomorrow is to listen to your judgment and understanding of the Bashu battle situation and the entire front, obviously Your Majesty also wants to know how you think of the current situation in the world, and Da Chen is now like a trapped beast in a cage, Your Majesty knows very well what he needs to do······"

Li Xinchen was stunned for a moment and understood what Xu Ling meant.

The current Nan Chen needs a direction of attack, or he needs to find an opportunity to break free from the shackles of Jingzhou and Huaishui and expand outward.

Otherwise, if this continues, even if there is a civil strife in the Northern Zhou, which has completely occupied the Central Plains, as long as the entire state institution can still operate, then it will still be stronger than Nan Chen, who has just stood up from the ruins of the Hou Jing Rebellion, in terms of heritage and national strength.

When a trapped beast struggles too many times and struggles too many times, the strength is almost used, and the patience and fighting spirit will naturally be consumed, and it will be even more difficult to make a breakthrough after that.

Zhuge Liang's seven trips out of Qishan and Jiang Wei's nine expeditions to the Central Plains, what the final result was, everyone knows in their hearts.

The lost fighting spirit, the growing gap in national strength, etc., have made everything irretrievable, and in the end we can only sit back and wait for destruction.

The trapped beasts are still fighting, but how many trapped beasts can finally break through the cage?

Therefore, Chen Ji knows very well that now is not the time to attack Li Xinchen, in this Jiankang Mansion, one acre and three points of land, after all, it is Chen Xu, who is the emperor, who speaks and counts, but if Chen Ji takes Li Xinchen at this time, then in exchange for the entire Nan Chen will be trapped in the cage forever, and if you believe Li Xinchen, at least everything will not be according to the development that is known now, at least there is a chance to try to break through.

Chen Ji is not stupid, he knows the value of Li Xinchen's existence.

Thinking about this, you can be sure that tomorrow in the court, Chen Ji will definitely not attack Li Xinchen easily, at least until Li Xinchen gives a suitable answer, he is safe.

Li Xinchen exhaled, in this stuffy air, this may be the only bit of good news he knows. But Xu Ling and Xu Deyan's eyes still had a trace of worry in them.

It's safe now, but after that, who can guarantee that Chen Ji won't turn his face and deny people? In order to maintain the stability of the throne, no morality, any trust and respect are just a layer of window paper that can be pierced at any time.

The candles were dim, and on the eve of this imminent storm, everyone held their breath and waited for the thunder.

Xu Ling coughed lightly: "Tomorrow, the general must remember that the old man or Sikong will help you speak, but it doesn't mean that everything will help you, everyone has a different grasp of the degree here, but the old man believes that the general can understand." ”

Li Xinchen's expression was solemn, he knew what Xu Ling meant, whether it was Xu Ling or Wu Mingche, they could follow Li Xinchen and soar to the top, but there was no way to pull the entire family to Li Xinchen to accompany him to the funeral. This Li Xinchen does not complain about them, after all, everyone can do the icing on the cake, but it is not so easy to send charcoal in the snow, once it fails, it will involve hundreds or even thousands of lives.

Whether it is Xu Ling or Wu Mingche, they don't have the ability to make this decision for the entire family and the people who follow them, and when Li Xinchen is no longer able to return to the sky, it is impossible for them to continue to protect Li Xinchen or defend him.

Of course, if it was only Li Xinchen who was attacked by other courtiers, Xu Ling, Wu Mingche and others would definitely not sit idly by, and even rise to persuade Chen Xuan to listen to Li Xinchen's advice.

Li Xinchen didn't have any expectations for this, Xu Ling and Wu Mingche were able to support their plan at this time, which was enough to make Li Xinchen happy.

Be content!

Xu Ling then smiled and made a gesture of invitation to Li Xinchen: "General, the business is over, and there are some private matters of our Xu family, which need to be discussed with the general." ”

Li Xinchen was a little stunned, but Xu Ling said unhurriedly: "My grandson has always been stubborn, thanks to the general's careful teaching, he is now considered to be a man of honor, and he can take on the responsibility of one party, the old man is deeply grateful." Now there are still many young children in my Xu family, although their qualifications are mediocre, but I want to come under the general's teachings and influence, there is still room for improvement in learning and exploration, and I ask the general to be this gentleman for my Xu family. ”

After Xu Ling finished speaking, before Li Xinchen could answer, Xu Deyan had already solemnly bowed his hand to Li Xinchen: "What the eldest father said is extremely true, since Xiuyuan followed the general, he has increased his knowledge and courage in the southern and northern wars for more than a year, and it can be said that he has benefited a lot. ”

Li Xinchen only came back from his surprise at this time, he knew that this was Xu Ling who had started to bet, nominally to let Li Xinchen teach the students, but in fact, he was adding the young children of the Xu family to Li Xinchen's team.

For Li Xinchen, of course, it can solve the problem of lack of talents, and for the Xu family, it is equivalent to sending a large number of talents to Li Xinchen's group, and then as Li Xinchen's group continues to grow and develop, these people will naturally become part of the entire group.

From the perspective of the development of Li Xinchen's group and the Xu family, this is naturally a mutually beneficial thing, but from the premise of the current background, Xu Ling is naturally equivalent to taking the risk of tying the future of the entire Xu family to Li Xinchen.

On the eve of this storm that could come at any time, Xu Ling made a decisive decision.

He believed in Li Xinchen, and even did not hesitate to directly put the future of the entire Xu family on the line.

Li Xinchen's eyes gradually brightened, he looked at Xu Ling, Xu Ling then said: "The Xu family has been a bit of a foundation for so many years, so if the general does not dislike it, these stubborn people will ask the general to teach, and in order to thank the general, the Xu family should pay gold and silver for the general, and the Xu family is not a rich family, a thousand taels of gold, three thousand taels of silver, talk about the lottery, and ask the general to smile." ”

The old man still pays the money?

Li Xinchen even wanted to hug Xu Ling and kiss him at this time.

You must know that the current Li Xinchen, what he lacks most is not talent, but money, and being rich is not omnipotent, but at least now Li Xinchen can do a lot of things he wants to do.

Recruiting soldiers, settling the people, building workshops, and building city defenses, where do you not need money, and where do you not need money? Li Xinchen didn't dare to look at how much property he had in his treasury now, it can be said that the money and property of the Tang clan in Xiajiang and the original Bashu state capitals were transported into Shu County and soon scattered like splashing water, if it weren't for the new year, all the taxes in Bajun and other places fell into Li Xinchen's hands, and Yang Su also supported a batch of gold in time, Li Xinchen may have already been unable to make ends meet.
