Chapter 43: The Ye Family's Decision
Seeing Ye Jingtao's unfathomable expression, Yang Shen was a little blind, and he had no choice but to bow down and say to Ye Jingtao: "The son-in-law is incompetent, I beg my father-in-law to give me advice." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ¼
Ye Jingtao smiled and said: "Virtuous nephew, you are half right, the old man ordered you to come this time, it is indeed related to the affairs of the northern Xinjiang, as far as the old man knows, if the sudden eagle increases the army, His Majesty now intends for you to lead the left and right armed forces to support the northern Xinjiang." ā
Yang Shen nodded and said, "Father-in-law Mingjian, when I went to the court yesterday, my son-in-law Zeng Mengwen was informed of this by the genius of Wen. ā
Ye Jingtao's eyes flashed: "Oh, the old man also knows? When did their Wen family become so well-informed? ā
Obviously, he was a little puzzled that the Wen family could get the news so quickly, and the Wen family's power was mainly in the military. Among the palaces, these military gate lords are not very adept.
After pondering for a while, Ye Jingtao turned to ask, "What are your plans to do with that virtuous nephew?" If you don't want to go, the old man can help you put this matter away. ā
Yang Shen chuckled and said, "How can my son-in-law miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?" The left and right guards add up to 100,000 soldiers and horses, Li Shimin wants to calculate his son-in-law, and the son-in-law will definitely want him to steal chickens and rice. ā
Ye Jingtao laughed and said, "Good, good! This is my Ye Jingtao's good son-in-law. ā
After a pause, as if thinking about something, he said, "Since the will of the virtuous son-in-law has been decided, my Ye family is also ready to help you." In this way, if you really have a trip to Northern Xinjiang, I will send a grandmaster to protect you, how about it? ā
Yang Shen was a little grateful in his heart, even for a high-ranking lord like them, the grandmaster master was also an extremely valuable resource, and each family only had more than ten people, and Yang Ye's two forces were all over the land of Kyushu, and every state needed such a strongman to sit in charge. Being able to squeeze out a grandmaster master, the Ye family's favor this time can be described as not kind.
He had a touched look on his face: "Thank you father-in-law for your kindness, but the little nephew is disrespectful." ā
Now is not the time to refuse, if he goes to the northern frontier, he really needs such a master with him.
Yang Kai listened on the side, and the smile on his face became thicker.
Yang Shen asked Ye Jingtao with some doubts: "Father-in-law, you just said that the son-in-law was only half right, I don't know what the half that the son-in-law never said was right?" ā
Ye Jingtao did not answer his question, but turned his head to Yang and said, "Dare to ask Elder Yang, what do you think of the current situation?" ā
Yang Kai's eyes flashed: "If other people ask the old man, the old man will naturally tell him that when the road is not forgotten, the night is not closed, and the country and the people are safe." It's just that since the head of the Ye family asked, it is another way of saying it, in fact, people of insight today know that the people in the world are already struggling to make a living, and the world is in chaos, and it only takes a little spark to turn the world upside down. As an Auxiliary Cabinet Minister, you should be well aware of this. ā
As he spoke, he asked Ye An'an, who had been silent on the side, "Is the old man right?" ā
Ye An'an's face was full of admiration: "Yang Lao Ming has seen thousands of miles, and the kid admires it." ā
"Hmm," Yang Kaikai stroked his beard quite appreciatively.
Ye Jingtao had a smile on his face, as if he felt that Yang Kai's temper was like a child, and he always had to be coaxed, he said to Yang Shen: "This is the other half of what you didn't say right, when the undercurrent is still turbulent today, or there will be great changes, what is more important in this world?" The second thing that the old man came to find you and Yang Lao is also related to this. ā
Yang Shen suddenly realized, and said respectfully: "The little son-in-law is shallow, thanks to the father-in-law's advice, I don't know what the other thing is?" ā
Ye Jingtao showed a gloomy look on his face: "Every time there is a change of dynasty, whether it is for the common people or for the gate lords of my family, it is a disaster, how many families have disappeared in the military disaster?" In the previous dynasty, there were seven great families in the world, in addition to our six great families, the original Changshan Sun family was also prominent, but was killed by the Mengyuan court and sent troops to encircle and suppress. The world is going to be in chaos again, and my Ye family has to consider self-preservation. ā
Yang Shen knew in his heart that since Ye Jingtao called him to the Ye family and said this to him, he must have already had a so-called self-preservation strategy, and it must be related to the Yang family.
At the moment, he said respectfully: "Please show your father-in-law, you are an old man, but you have a life, and your little nephew has nothing to do." ā
In front of Yang Kai, it was impossible for his father-in-law to make any excessive requests, so Yang Shen agreed very happily.
Ye Jingtao nodded, he was very satisfied with Yang Shen's statement, although his proposal would also be of great benefit to the Yang family, but Yang Shen had never expressed his position, after all, he was still worried in his heart.
He paced back and forth in the lobby for a few steps, and it was clear that the decision he was about to make was very unusual, and even if he had been in power for a long time, he could not be completely indifferent.
After a while, he stopped, and his face showed a bit of determination: "Shen'er, the old man plans to move most of my Ye family's strength to Qingzhou, what do you think?" ā
Yang Shen was first taken aback when he heard this, and then he was surprised and delighted, and Yang Kaikai was the same, he asked with a trembling voice: "Is what the Ye family master said true?" ā
It's no wonder that the two of them are so out of shape, it's really Ye Jingtao's proposal is too amazing, Qingzhou is where the Yang family's lair is, and as he said, the Ye family chose to be completely dependent on the Yang family and became a vassal of the Yang family.
Regardless of how much the Ye family's huge financial resources, manpower and material resources accumulated for thousands of years will help the Yang family in the future struggle for world domination, just the prestige and appeal of the Ye family in the world is an indescribable wealth for the Yang family.
If there is no Ye family's statement, at the beginning of the world's hegemony, when the wealth of these families has not been coveted by all parties, they are likely to choose to wait and see, and will not choose what forces to rely on, but will wait for the heads of all parties to take the initiative to ask them, so as to occupy a great initiative and right to speak. But Ye Jiaken took the initiative to express his position, and a completely different situation would be formed.
Although since the founding of the Great Chu for 300 years, the six great families have long been no longer the original monolith, each with its own sphere of influence and interests, but the Ye family still occupies the prestige of the first family in the world, and they have taken the initiative to choose to join the Yang family, which is an obvious signal that the Yang family is optimistic. Even if the world's families will not choose to join the Yang family immediately, they will inevitably bet one after another.
Three hundred years ago, Ye Jingxian, the head of the Ye family, had a unique vision, and chose Taizu Li Yunlong when he was still humble, and led the five major families and the small families in the world to help each other, and finally made Yunlong Taizu win the supreme position. It was also his old man's layout in advance, and the foundation of the six great families was deeply rooted in all aspects of Li Yunlong's power, so that when Taizu wanted to do something to the six great families after the general trend had been achieved, he found that if he moved them, he would dig his own foundation, and his old Li family would be finished together, even if he wanted a strong man to break his wrist, he couldn't get it.
Therefore, in the past three hundred years, the six great families have been able to gradually recover the vitality lost in the Mengyuan period, and they have become stronger and stronger.
Therefore, the world has always trusted the vision of the Lao Ye family.
