In the dim light of the secret room, a middle-aged Jianghu person and a young girl sat opposite each other, and they were chatting about the mountains and rivers of their home country.

Before the martial arts of that year, when Yu Sandao was still Yu Zengyi, the capital was still singing and dancing, and the dignitaries were still singing and singing every night, no matter how you look at it, it is a sign of peace and prosperity.

But at that time, several people in power who had been in the officialdom for many years realized that something was wrong with this court.

Because the Son of Heaven decided to open the border fortress and strengthen the border trade.

This decision alone is not wrong, but it is not the right time.

At that time, Beihu had been constantly harassing the life on the border, and even did a lot of burning, killing and looting. So the defenders of the four cities on the border jointly signed a letter, wanting to carry out a wave of liquidation of the army of Beihu before winter.

Unfortunately, the man disagreed, saying that the war was too long, the consumption was too large, and it was difficult to achieve results, because he said that he was unwilling to have more wars, so he rejected the proposal.

The four generals could not agree, so they repeatedly made suggestions, but they still only got the order to defend the city, which made them very resentful. You must know that it is on the verge of winter, and there is little food in the land of Beihu, and there is not enough to protect against the cold, so they will invade the border and loot materials, and it is time for the border people to endure hardship.

And that winter, just as the four generals feared, the border line was strongly impacted, although the city gate was not breached, but it was also a heavy loss, countless soldiers buried their bones in the battlefield, horse leather shrouded in corpses; Countless people were robbed of food and tortured to death.

If the capital is a paradise on earth, then the border is a bloody hell.

Those difficult times were finally passed by the army and the industrious people, and just as they stumbled through the winter, hoping for a recovery, they received the sad news that the borders were completely opened.

It's incredible, as if no one cares what these gatekeepers go through.

The four major generals once again jointly wrote to ask that person to think twice, but unfortunately it was rejected again.

This time, the messenger said that he had reached an agreement with the royal court of Beihu. This time, the Beihu royal court was about to pay tribute to Beijing, which made him very satisfied, so he was relieved on the negotiation of border trade.

When the four generals received such news, they felt very puzzled, what was that child's play? Are national affairs decided by one's own preferences?

But the puzzling thing is not only this, not long after, their military power was reduced one by one, and even the army they led was also required to be reduced.

For the border land, this is tantamount to digging one's own grave, with few soldiers and few powers, what will you do to defend your home and country in the future? Besides, how could the friendship of the Beihu people last for a while, and if they were really able to keep the covenant, why did they invade the border again and again?

The four generals who were cut off their military power were naturally unwilling, and even brought the court to cause a great shock, but under the royal power, they also realized that he had made up his mind completely in countless struggles, and the overall situation was really unchangeable, so in the end they reluctantly accepted the status quo.

It's just that they have led troops for many years, and they still have their own consciousness and ideas about the border guards, knowing that the troops are insufficient after being cut, and once there is some turmoil on the border and a war breaks out, then such troops are really a little powerless. So they silently retained the soldiers who had been dismissed before and became civilian escorts, hoping to do more.

But it was not long before this kind of behavior reached the ears of the man, who supposedly could turn a blind eye to such an act, but the man was so angry about it for some reason.

Fortunately, the people in the court also knew the seriousness of the matter, and they said all the good things for the four generals to calm down the anger of that one.

It's just that this matter is still good in that person's heart, and that person is indeed very dissatisfied, so it didn't take long for the four generals to conspire against the government and the opposition that shocked the government and the opposition.

"A trumped-up charge, a set of letters that may even be completely fake, actually took the four of them out of their official positions like this, and finally wanted to put them in prison. If it weren't for the anger of the crowd, the one who was afraid of provoking a military mutiny, thinking that the four of them would definitely be in danger of their lives. ”

When Yu Sandao said this, his eyes were full of sorrow, he had heard countless stories about the great achievements of the four generals when he was young. At such a time, it is inevitable to feel sad and angry.

Think about it again, the four generals who are really guarding the border for the country and the people, and the border defense line they have spent half their lives building has been in vain. Now, under the toss of that person, the four major defense cities of the border fortress have become useless!

"So you made a plan?!"

Ling Yao asked with some certainty.

"Well, before my martial arts, my father, the Marquis of Weiyuan, and several adults in the court were planning. It's just that the person who chose to leave Beijing at the beginning was not me, but the son of the general, Lian Hui. But no one expected that when everything was in place, that one would suddenly marry Princess Nianli and Lian Hui, which disrupted the plan. ”

Speaking of this, Yu Sandao sighed, who would have thought that this was a mistake of more than ten years.

"So your character was supposed to be in the court, right?"

Ling Yao was also analyzing the information at the same time.

"That's right, that paper argument is actually a vote for that person, who would have thought that the change would come too suddenly. But it's okay, otherwise even if I rely on martial arts step by step, I may not be reused by that person, after all, he is already crazy, and he will definitely not tolerate the appearance of famous generals anymore, and he doesn't want others to have any more objections. ”

In the first half of Sandao's life, he was rewritten, far away from the capital, and when he arrived here, he fell into the grass.

"Hmm."

Ling Yao nodded noncommittally, not knowing what she remembered again, and there was a bit of longing in her eyes.

"Lian Hui stayed in the capital for me, he became the eyes of the capital, and I came to Yuncheng for him, and I became his brother and sister. Over the years, I have continued to recruit forces and help soldiers who are struggling to make a living because of disarmament, in order to hoard power, and one day, when the country will be gone, it will be the place where my generation planned back then. ”

Yu Sandao's voice was heavy.

Ling Yao had some mixed feelings in her heart, she really didn't expect that there was such a great righteousness in the world here, and she didn't expect that there were still people who were willing to lie dormant for this, sacrifice for this, and go to a completely different life for this.

"Then this time the official salt incident, is there something wrong?"

After a while, Ling Yao asked.
