In late autumn, it's cold to sit outside at night, but the good thing is that there are no mosquitoes at all. It was very quiet all around, and there was not even the noise of insects chirping in summer...... The only sound was the sound of a bell coming from nowhere.

Guo Shao held the smooth jade hand of Second Sister Fu in his palm, and was looking at the scenery on both sides of the lake in a daze.

A place of one's own, a woman of one's own, a small garden at the back of the house, and sit at the door and talk to her when the day is over. I dreamed a long time ago, but now, that little wish is not a matter to Guo Shao at all, and he can even meet this wish of others with a raise of his hand.

But his heart couldn't calm down at the moment, he couldn't relax, and he was still thinking about the outside world.

The remnants of the nearly 20,000 Iron Cavalry Army, which were planned to be incorporated into the Guards Division, are now basically in a state of paralysis of disorganization, because a small half of the troops have been withdrawn one after another; The generals also have a fault because of the cleaning. The guard Ma Busi actually only had the second box strength left in Tokyo, the left wing of the Hujie army was reorganized and left, and the left wing of the Long Jie army had not yet reached Tokyo......

The remaining two wings of the Guards Division could not fight, otherwise the reorganization plan of the Guards Division would be halted; This will affect the schedule of the rest of the Iron Cavalry to reorganize into an army. It is not a good thing to let the men and horses of the Iron Cavalry be paralyzed for a long time and slowly lose control; The rearmament must continue without stopping.

Guo Shao only has the men and horses of the front division of the palace to use, of which the Tiger Ben Army is a descendant army; He would rather leave a part of it to ensure the safety of Tokyo and beyond, and deter the other men and horses who threaten the forbidden army, as well as the soldiers and horses from other towns, rather than transfer them all...... Then the army was drawn from the Crane Army to supplement the troops on the expedition.

"I will send my second sister to the palace tomorrow and be with the Queen Mother." Guo Shaodao.

Second Sister Fu reluctantly showed a smile, nodded and smiled: "Well, I haven't seen my eldest sister for a long time, so I just happened to talk to her." ”

"Alas......" Guo Shao sighed lightly, "I just met again, and I'm going out again." ”

"Husband, just do the right thing with peace of mind, don't worry about me." Second Sister Fu said lightly.

Guo Shao held her hand: "But there will always be time to write a letter." ”

Fu Ermei smiled: "Oh, my husband is free, I'll teach you to practice calligraphy." ”

"I will leave Li Chuyun behind, and the Empress Dowager Jinyan will let him lead the Tokyo inspection. That relieved me. Guo Shao said. Second Sister Fu whispered: "Li Chuyun is the father of Li Yuan'er you mentioned, right?" Guo Shao said: "It's him." ”

Second Sister Fu smiled: "Then you don't dare to live up to Li Yuan'er." ”

Guo Shao said kindly: "Before marrying the second sister, I knew her; When I met her, I didn't know my second sister. She is a very good little lady, but I will still ask for the consent of the second sister first, and see if you care about it; No matter how good a person is, his position in my heart is still worse than that of my second sister. ”

Second Sister Fu asked softly: "If it weren't for the fact that my father was King Wei and my eldest sister was the queen at the time, you would have married Li Yuan'er?" Because I was a stranger to you at the time. ”

"Don't mention the past, now I care about the second sister the most." Guo Shao said busily.

Fu Ermei chuckled and said, "It's okay, didn't you say it all, you didn't know me at that time, can you blame you?" I just can't help but want to understand my husband's heart. ”

Guo Shao nodded dryly: "That's the case, but there are so many good women in the world, I can't like whoever I see, right?" At that time, I really didn't think much about Li Yuan'er, and it just so happened that she took a fancy to me. ”

Second Sister Fu asked again: "Does the husband trust Li Chuyun?" ”

"It's about trust. However......" Guo Shao looked into her eyes, "In this world, it is not easy to have one or two people who can really be fully trusted." Ordinary people may be more likely to trust others because they don't have the opportunity to be tested by greater temptations, and the stakes for betrayal are not big enough. The first emperor (Chai Rong) trusted Zhao Kuangyin very much, what will Zhao Kuangyin do when the opportunity is ripe? ”

Second Sister Fu muttered faintly: "Under the will of the husband, don't trust Li Chuyun? ”

"No, I trust him." Guo Shao touched the back of his head. Fu Ermei "poofed" and smiled: "Am I stupid, I told you that I didn't understand it for a long time." ”

Guo Shao said patiently and gently: "I haven't said it yet, the second sister understands what I said, the second sister is very smart, but she didn't have much contact with it before...... It has to be said that most relationships cannot be simply distinguished by right and wrong, black and white.

I trust Li Chuyun very much now, because he doesn't have a chance now. To be the commander of the front division of the palace, the envoy is like a rising cloud, without a foundation and no prestige; He can only keep his position on me. Objectively, it is impossible for him to have two hearts, and Li Chuyun's character and loyalty are still very good; I have a good understanding of him, and I have fought side by side in battle and in critical moments. Why don't I trust a man like a brother in distress?

I don't trust him very much, and I won't be relieved to let him stay in Tokyo to take charge of the situation, so that the Queen Mother can have reliable people to use at critical moments.

…… However, among all the senior generals under my command, Li Chuyun is the only one who is both civil and military, brave and strategic, and has a lot of knowledge; When he took refuge in the Northwest to Zhegong, he often interacted with the celebrities at that time and talked very well with the cultural people. In the few years I have spent time with him, I have also found that he has a very unique strategic vision.

Such a character, as soon as he is full-fledged, has a group of henchmen and foundations, and has prestige, he may become Zhao Kuangyin of the first emperor. When the opportunity is ripe, he can't help but want something; He doesn't want to, and others will help him think. ”

Guo Shao sighed and said, "So I have to prevent him from becoming another Zhao Kuangyin early, which will also be good for him...... War is the quickest way to increase prestige and strength; You see over the years, a few years can shape a general or even an emperor, that is, war. I asked Li Chuyun to lead as few troops to fight as possible, and gave him high positions and military power, and his strength could not rise; When he was used, his talents were still there. Li Chuyun has no foundation and prestige, and if he doesn't get to that point, he won't think about things that shouldn't be him.

This is also a consideration for me not to keep Yang Biao and Li Chuyun this time. Yang Biao is my brother, his virtue, good and bad, clear grievances, no compromise at all, not like the master. ”

Second Sister Fu was thoughtful and said with a smile: "Why do I suddenly feel that my husband is really cunning...... Hey, don't be angry. ”

Guo Shao smiled: "I have such a good wife...... wife, the country is beautiful and the world is beautiful; In such troubled times, I was also forced out, if I didn't have the means, wouldn't it be for others to raise? What should I do if I am robbed? ”

Second Sister Fu's soft chest leaned on his shoulder: "Husband is actually very good, if I asked my father and brother about these things, they would have been impatient for a long time, but you will talk to me slowly...... I don't know why, just being with you, talking to you, my heart is very beautiful. ”

"Me too." Guo Shao said softly, "But at this time, it is indeed a fighter, and it can't be easily lost in order to defend it." If it is too early, Li Jixun will stand in Zezhou Taiyue, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and he will gnaw hard bones, and the war may take a long time; It's too late, I'm afraid that Jinju will be lost, so let Li Chongjin and Li Jixun rendezvous...... And now is the right time, Li Jixun was vacillated in order to advance Jinju and the defense, and he did not join forces with Li Chongjin to grow. Therefore, I was anxious to send troops, despite the fact that the forbidden army had not yet succeeded. ”

……

In the Li Mansion in the evening, Li Chuyun was also with his family.

"Before you set out, you can't go to Guo Du to check it privately!" Li Chuyun said sternly to his daughter.

Li Yuan'er didn't say a word and lowered her head.

Li Chuyun looked back at his wife, and said earnestly: "Men must be loyal, women must be loyal, no matter what the world, this is the foundation of life!" You can't be easily committed to others, and you can't easily abandon the Lord. At the beginning of in Pizhou, Na Zhe Deliang treated me with a book, and falsely accused me; Am I turning my back on the Fold? In the end, as a last resort, Zhe Deliang's guy actually used three indiscriminate means to deal with my family, and I couldn't bear it!

Look at the current Guodu inspection, how is it for me? Li is a person who can do things and be reliable, hum......

You have read so many epic books, the Three Kingdoms are troubled times, right? Do you know that the three surnamed slaves Lu Bu, Lu Bu is not a hero, almost invincible in battle, but what happened to him in the end, and has he ever been truly trusted and reused? This is the lesson that history has taught the world! ”

Mrs. Wang also helped to persuade: "Yuan'er, my father and mother love you so much, and they are always obedient to you." Your father is telling the truth, and you listen to him. ”

"Hmm." Li Yuan'er said helplessly, "Of course I will listen to my father's words, don't worry." ”

Wang sighed: "Alas, you can do this, it's been so long." You are hearted, how much heart does Brother Shao'er have? It's not worth it for you! ”

Li Yuan'er's eyes were a little distracted: "Needless to say, I'm not stupid, of course I can feel it...... But some people can only see him once in a long time, and the short time they get along is unforgettable. It's not because of how good he is to me, he just wants to see her and is willing to be with him. It's not at all like the sons I've seen before, I was disgusted at first glance, and I didn't want to stay even for a moment; Sometimes I think that if I am surrounded by such a person all the time, no matter how high my status and how much money I have, it will be very uncomfortable. Thankfully not. ”

Wang turned his head to look at Li Chuyun and said, "I have raised her for twenty years, and when she grew up, she was hooked by someone, and sooner or later it will be someone else's family...... It's better to raise children, (Li) Jilong will never disown his father and mother when he grows up. ”

Li Yuan'er stepped forward and grabbed Wang's family, blushing and said, "Who said he didn't recognize you?" ”

Li Chuyun stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Each has its own good." ”
