"Brother Xue, are you going to have an accident? Isn't that right? Now, no matter where you look at it, it's not yet time for Sui to lose his deer. At this point in time, whoever jumps out first to stir up the anti-flag may not end up much better than Li Liang. In the end, you have to be someone else's stepping stone, Brother Xue, you have always been shrewd, how can you make such a mediocre decision? When Li Wenyuan heard Xue Ju's words, the half-chewed cantaloupe in his mouth spit out on the ground and said in surprise.

"Alas, Brother Wen Yuan doesn't know anything. It's not that your brother and I can't hold back the heart of being the emperor, but the people standing behind my brother can't hold it back. Some time ago, you recommended that Zong Rahu to Jincheng to look for me, that person can be regarded as affectionate and righteous, and there is still a set of leading troops to train soldiers. I placed him in a dangerous place nearby, and let him continue to fall into the grass, so that on the day I started the incident, he could directly lead his troops to join him. Moreover, Zhong Lishu, the leader of the Qianghu who has always been relatively rare in the Central Plains, also contacted me some time ago, saying that if I had an incident, he would be willing to bring all his Qianghu people to join me.

At first, I was a little curious, why does everyone know that I Xue Ju is going to have an accident now? It wasn't until a few days ago that one of the representatives elected by those who were standing behind me said to me: If this year is not possible, they will appoint someone else to take my place. Although he didn't say it very explicitly, I knew that if they really supported another person, I would be the first to bear the brunt of all their secrets, and I would be the first to be eliminated by them. So, brother, I'm not here to beg you to come, when I raise troops in the future, I estimate that the emperor will definitely issue an order for you to come to suppress the bandits, and when the time comes, I will trouble Brother Wenyuan to show mercy to your subordinates and give my brother a way to live. My Jincheng is located in a dangerous place, and if I remove the worries of the Western Regions, it will take some effort for the Central Plains to attack. Xue Ju looked directly into Li Wenyuan's eyes and said.

"Hey, I said, Brother Xue, you can't hold your breath. It turns out that the people behind you can't help it, and there is nothing wrong with what you say. But this timing must be carefully considered, now that the rebels in the Central Plains are rising one after another, it is estimated that Emperor Yang Guang is also uneasy. Generally speaking, if the emperor has an uneasy appearance about his rule, they will generally choose to go out on patrol to see the illusion created by those officials on the way out to deceive themselves. Convince yourself of the richness of the country he ruled, the well-being of the people under his rule, and the strength of his army. Since ancient times, all emperors have had such a hobby. Now the situation in the Great Sui is already rotten, and the only places that can make Yang Guang feel more down-to-earth are two places, one is Jiangnan, which he has been operating for a long time, and the other is Northern Xinjiang, which has a large number of elite officers and soldiers. I estimate that within this year, Yang Guang will definitely go to northern Xinjiang to inspect, and nine times out of ten he will pass through Yanmen Pass, you must know that the Khan of the Eastern Turks has been disobedient for a long time, and there are Goguryeo people on the side. And the news of Yang Guang's patrol of Yanmen Pass will definitely not be hidden from anyone, and it is estimated that the Khan of the Eastern Turks will not let go of this opportunity at that time. He will definitely bring the Turks from the north to a good show of troops to surround Yanmen Pass. But..."Li Wenyuan said this, and suddenly the conversation changed.

Xue Ju heard what Li Wenyuan said, but he didn't say it immediately, so he also asked eagerly: "Brother Wenyuan, if you have anything to say, hurry up, you are here to hang my brother's appetite, this is a bit excessive." ”

However, the Khan's wife was Princess Yoshisei. Out of the blood relatives of the same clan, Princess Yicheng will definitely find a way to relieve the siege of Yanmen Pass, plus the Turks have been besieged for a long time, and there is a lack of heavy weapons to attack the city. I can't help it, and I will definitely retreat in the end. Yang Guang can survive, so he returns to the original topic, he feels that the two places that are safe are one in northern Xinjiang and the other in Jiangnan. But now he is besieged by the Turks in northern Xinjiang, making northern Xinjiang no longer a place where he feels safe. Therefore, after he was besieged at Yanmen Pass, once he was saved, he would immediately start the matter of touring the south. He will take his ministers to move the imperial court to Jiangnan, and at that time, if Brother Xue raises troops again, the effect will be much better. With the southward movement of the imperial court, Yang Guang's control over the north, especially the northwest, will be weaker. At that time, Brother Xue will raise troops, and he will be able to block the connection between the Western Regions and the Central Plains, and even if I have the heart to contact the emperor, there will be no place to convey official documents. Then it's only natural that I don't dare to send troops to suppress bandits, Brother Xue, you said what I said was right? Li Wenyuan picked up a piece of melon from the melon and fruit plate on the table and stuffed it into his mouth, and said slowly to Xue Ju.

"If it's really as Brother Wen Yuan said, then it couldn't be better. But even if I trust Brother Wenyuan, how can I tell those behind me? Xue Ju said with some embarrassment.

"It's simple, I can give Brother Xue a deadline. Before September this year, Yang Guang will inevitably be besieged at Yanmen Pass. If it hadn't happened in September, it hadn't happened. So Brother Xue can start an incident immediately, this is not a violation of those people's rules, right? ”

"Okay, I'll just tell those people when I get back. Brother Wenyuan, I understand what you mean, once I get into trouble, I will definitely block all the communication channels between your Western Regions and the Central Plains as soon as possible, and I will definitely not let Brother Wenyuan have anything difficult for you to do. After careful consideration, Xue Ju said with determination.

"It's great that Brother Xue is willing to believe in the younger brother, but now the younger brother has something to ask for."

"Oh? You are the governor of the Western Regions, and now you are in the officialdom. What do you want me to help with a Captain Kaneshiro? After Xue Ju heard that Li Wenyuan had a request for him, he also said with a smile.

Li Wenyuan heard some self-deprecation in Xue Ju's words, but at this time, he could only pretend that he couldn't hear it. Li Wenyuan understood Xue Ju's current mood very well, after all, he was still a partial general under his account not long ago. But after going to Liaodong with him, as soon as he turned around, he had become a feudal official who far exceeded his official position. This kind of identity gap will be a little difficult for anyone to accept, no matter how close the relationship between these two people is. Thinking of this, Li Wenyuan secretly smiled and shook his head, but he still had a sincere expression on his face and said:

"I want to borrow a sum of grain from Brother Xue, and in addition to returning this amount of grain in the coming year, I will pay an additional fifty percent to Big Brother as interest based on the amount of grain."
