Chapter 182 is thirsty
Yu Zhong and Zhu Quan came to Yu County after a day's journey, and only after many inspections did they see Li Yao, Yu Zhong ran over and said, "Master Hou, what happened?" We were trapped at the military station a few days ago, and a local brigade commander said that we were currently in a state of first-level combat readiness and would not let us go out! ”
Li Yao smiled: "Brother Yu, nothing serious, by the way, is the convoy coming?" ”
Yu Zhong nodded and said, "The convoy is here, as long as you return to Huxian, you and Linlin can get married!" ”
At this time, Zhu Quan stood up and said in a strange manner: "Ninghou of Qiguo, I am the envoy of the Liang Dynasty, and this time I am announcing my will to you at the behest of Emperor Liang!" ”
Li Yao glanced at Zhu Quan and said, "It's not in my office area now, so I refuse to deal with all affairs, if there is anything specific, you can go to Huxian County to discuss with my military advisor Wan Xun!" ”
Zhu Quanqi said: "Ninghou of Qi Kingdom, you have to think clearly, I am a messenger sent by the Liang Dynasty!" ”
Li Yao glared at Zhu Quan and said, "If you weren't the envoy sent by the Liang Dynasty, I would have kicked you out a long time ago!" ”
Zhu Quan pointed at Li Yao and said angrily: "Okay, I'll go to Huxian County now to announce Emperor Liang's will to your military advisor!" ”
Li Yao waved his hand and said, "Let's go, don't send it!" ”
Yu Zhong said: "You are so relieved that he will go? ”
Li Yao sneered: "Even if he arrives in Huxian, the dog head will not see him!" ”
Yu Zhong looked at the back of Zhu Quan leaving and said: "He is a messenger sent by Emperor Liang, you treat him like this, it's not good!" ”
Li Yao smiled: "Even if I am polite to him, won't he let me quit Yiguo?" Brother Yu, in this world, respect is earned by strength, I don't believe it. The Liang Dynasty will send a large army to requisition me! ”
Yu Zhong nodded and said: "Actually, this time the King of Qi is supporting you, your 200,000 army plus the 200,000 army of Qi State, a total of 400,000 troops, I don't think the Liang Dynasty will dare to act rashly!" After all, they only have an army of 600,000 people, if they fight with us. It's definitely a lose-lose situation! ”
Li Yao suddenly asked: "Brother Yu, I really want to know about the eldest brother and the second brother now, you tell me about it!" ”
Yu Zhong suddenly stopped talking and said, "I'm not good at saying this!" ”
Li Yao whispered: "Uncle, just talk about it, are you standing in line now!" ”
When Yu Zhong heard Li Yao call him his eldest brother, he was no longer hypocritical, and said softly: "Brother-in-law, you also know." Now the eldest prince is in charge, and the second prince is in charge of the army, and I am an absolute civil official, so it should be biased towards the eldest prince, but the Ministry of Rites has the smallest weight among the five departments, so I haven't expressed my position yet, as for my father, he is now firmly following King Qi. Neither the eldest prince nor the second prince dared to force my father! ”
Li Yao asked again: "In this war between the Uighurs and the Tibetans, how much benefit did our Qi country take advantage of?" ”
Yu Zhong smiled: "Actually, I basically didn't catch anything. When the Uighurs and the Tibetans fought, they brought millions of cattle and sheep with their armies, and when our army rushed to the Uighurs, not to mention the figures, we didn't even see a single wool, and we couldn't take the land with us. It's really like going around the Uighurs and coming back! ”
Li Yao said with a smile: "The second brother didn't really want to go to war in the first place, even if he took the army to the Uighurs for a turn, the army that should be controlled is also in his hands!" ”
Yu Zhong nodded and said, "Yes, that's the way it is." This war is fake, and it is true that King Qi wants the second prince to take power! ”
Li Yao asked: "Eldest brother, when do you say the struggle for power between the eldest brother and the second brother will start?" ”
Yu Zhong shook his head and said, "Brother-in-law, I really don't dare to guess this, King Qi's body is quite tough now, and according to my estimates, it will be okay to live for another one or two decades!" I really don't understand, why did King Qi cultivate two forces, which would only consume national strength in vain! ”
Li Yao sighed: "My father doesn't want the family to sit big, if the family sits big, it will really be the biggest bad for the Qi country!" And it's going to be harder to control! ”
Yu Zhong stared at Li Yao and said, "Brother-in-law, are you still interested in the throne of King Qi?" ”
Li Yao smiled and said, "I am the Marquis of Qi Kingdom, how can I have thoughts about the throne of King Qi!" ”
Yu Zhong smiled: "Brother-in-law, I heard what you said a little against my will!" ”
Li Yao said lightly: "Do you know why I came out early? ”
Yu Zhong thought for a while and said, "You have been made a marquis, you should go out!" ”
Li Yao said with a smile: "King Qi likes me so much, even if I want to stay in the national capital, no one will say anything!" ”
Yu Zhong shook his head and said, "In this way, I don't know why you went back to the fiefdom earlier!" ”
Li Yao pointed outside and said, "Uncle, don't pretend to be confused, if I don't return to the fiefdom, where will I recruit troops, how can I attack more than a dozen counties in Yiguo!" ”
Yu Zhong was pierced by Li Yao, and he didn't want to pretend, and said, "Brother-in-law, are you forcing me to make a statement?" ”
Li Yao smiled: "Don't you fall to the eldest brother or the second brother, don't you just want to see who is better?" I don't think it's good for you to be like this, they have the pressure of their father, they won't get up in ten years, you have a few years of energy consumption, I won't tell you, I will be ready to attack Yidu in the spring of next year, and when I occupy Yidu, I will be the lord of Yiguo! ”
Yu Zhong looked at Li Yao with evasive eyes, and said softly: "If that's the case, that's really good!" ”
The corners of Li Yao's mouth curled, and he smiled: "Uncle, you also know that my land is expanding too fast, and there is no one to govern me at all, I know that you have a lot of talented people who govern the county, if you don't fall to me, then please recommend some talents to me, I really lack talents!" ”
Hearing Li Yao's request, Yu Zhong didn't want to run away, and said: "It's no problem to recommend some talents to you, but I don't know if they are willing to come!" ”
Li Yao said with a smile: "Ling Zun is the prime minister, the head of the civil officials, with your father's departure, I don't think many of those scholars will object!" ”
It's just that Li Yao said again: "You don't have to worry about the thoughts of the eldest brother and the second brother, I have been made a marquis now, so I can't think about the Qi country, so I can only attack other territories, I have no conflict of interest with the eldest brother and the second brother, and they will not have thoughts about you falling to me." ”
Although Li Yao said so, Yu Zhong still wanted to remain neutral and not participate in any party's forces, so that he could get the greatest benefits! This is what his father said, and Yu Zhong also wants to follow his father's words!
Li Yao looked at Yu Zhong and still wanted to remain neutral, so he said: "In this way, you tell your father that I still need a copy of Yu Linlin's dowry, that is, let him introduce me to some talented people!" ”
Yu Zhong looked at Li Yao and didn't give up, so he said: "It's no problem to help you introduce talents, but we still have to remain neutral!" ”
