"Now that time has passed, although the power of the Xiahou family is still in full swing, it is also in the southern boundary of Beijing. Nearly ten years have passed, and the situation in the DPRK and China is changing, who is the real mediator? Yuan Suye sighed, and couldn't help but be a little worried, "I'm not afraid of fighting, anyway, you and I have soldiers in our hands, but as long as this battle starts, the world will be chaotic." ”

Xiahou Yu seemed to sigh and said, "Mu Mu and I have now retreated to Jingnan, we just don't want to worry about Shangjing anymore, and I don't want to ask about those stories of intrigue and gangs...... Now that they have chosen to retreat, let them change how the situation in the court changes. Qi Yun has managed Daqi well over the years, and he is no longer the immature emperor he was at the beginning.

"If he still needs our help in everything, he will never grow up without experiencing a little wind and rain."

"Hey, do you know, it is because of this idea of yours that the majesty of the Xiahou family gradually faded in Shangjing, and slowly became a legend without any real impact on people's hearts. Even if people were in awe and fear of the Xiahou family at first, at least the word Xiahou was taken seriously by everyone and did not dare to provoke it. But now, don't talk about anything else, just talk about the children born in the last few years, and even some don't know about the Xiahou family. ”

Xiahou Yu laughed, peeled a fruit to eat, and said half-jokingly: "Isn't this better?" Exactly what we wanted. Now that almost all of our Xiahou family has moved to Jingnan, there is no one in Shangjing. There are few people who are officials in the imperial court, so how can the newborn child know that there is Xiahou? ”

"That's the problem." Yuan Suye hated iron a little, "It is because your power has moved out and you are no longer in control of sovereignty that Xiahou Ling, who lives in the palace, will not be taken seriously by those concubines." Let's take 10,000 steps back and say, if all of your Xiahou family is in Shangjing at this time, those women, those ministers, which one dares to make a move on Xiahou Ling, which one dares to say to the emperor, Your Majesty, for the sake of the great Qi country, take a concubine to have a child! ”

Xiahou Yu ate the fruit.

Yuan Suye paused, noticed his hesitation, and was silent for a while before continuing: "Do you remember when Xiahou Kite was the queen?" Qi Yun is much more skilled than Qi Yong, but even if Qi Yong is such a good talker, which minister dares to say more and let him take a concubine? As soon as he finished speaking, when he went out, he had to be beaten with a sack over his head.

"Who dares to make trouble in front of Xiahou Kite and want to commit suicide? Then she wanted to commit suicide with her whole family.

"To put it bluntly, Xiahou Ling has become less and less powerful in recent years. There is only an elderly An Guogong, what else can the old general Xiahou Qing do? He didn't even hold an official position. You have to be the ministers who are officials in the court to really influence the movement of the court. ”

"So what the hell are you trying to say?"

Yuan Suye coughed, probably choking on wine, and said after a while: "While our power is still there, go to Beijing and sound the alarm for those ministers who want to take the lead and have different intentions. No matter what, it can be closed for a few years, and if there is a new person who comes out and wants to do something wrong, we will kill it. ”

Xiahou Yu wanted to laugh a little, "Do you think you still have a few more decades to go to Shangjing to kill people?" You're forty now, two decades at most. If you go to Beijing again, you will probably die on the road. ”

The corners of Yuan Suye's mouth twitched, "You can't expect me to do well." ”

Xiahou Yu touched the wine jar with him, and said: "Listen to me, be your Hou Ye in Chengjiang County, and don't worry about Shangjing." Now that we're out, we'll leave it to the people who are on duty. People have to keep a low profile in order to live in peace. You're forty years old, you don't want to find a woman for yourself, and you still have to take care of the affairs of Shangjing thousands of miles away, so you have to wade into troubled waters, why bother. ”

Yuan Suye pouted, "Aren't I worried that when I get old, the people over there will look at me unpleasantly, so they will attack me first." We don't have much power in Shangjing now. ”

"Even if they make a move, it will be a long journey to Chengjiang County. You have the advantage of having the protection of the city, which is much stronger than them. Besides, you think that the general is so easy to be killed, but it really can't be done, you are still the same as before, you just can't get over. ”

Yuan Suye laughed out loud, "I'm still using those broken tricks before when I'm forty years old, you want me to be a ruffian hooligan for the rest of my life!" ”

Xiahou Yu smiled: "No matter what you do, just live freely." Moreover, Jingnan and Chengjiang County are not more than a thousand miles away, which is much closer than Shangjing. If there is something wrong with you, I will send troops to help you. ”

"Then you have to go over in person, otherwise I'm afraid that I won't be able to understand the other party's trajectory and collapse my city wall again."

The two of them couldn't help but laugh when they mentioned the past.

Xiahou Ling's incident did sound the alarm for them thousands of miles away. The current wind direction in Shangjing is no longer blowing towards Xiahou's house. Shangjing has a new character, is expanding his power little by little, is taking root in the court little by little, and I don't know when it will become a big tree in the sky.

If they want to live a stable life here, it is not enough to rely on the majesty and fewer and fewer cronies in Shangjing at the beginning.

The first thing to do is to train the soldiers under your command, and you must not relax. Always be ready to fight, both for the sake of the country and for themselves.

"By the way, I heard that Sheng Yuan has also resigned from the important position of commander of the Praetorian Guard and is coming to Jingnan?"

"Yes." Xiahou said: "Mother said that she is getting older day by day, and her body is not as tough as before, so she wants to see her relatives more." Sheng Yuan was alone in Beijing, and she was not at ease, so she wrote a letter to the other side, asking him to help the emperor finish Ling'er's funeral affairs and come back. ”

"I have to say, it's still your wife who is prescient. Since the people of the Xiahou family no longer belong to the imperial court and do not belong to Shangjing, they simply left none of them and came back. In that case, what about Xiahou Qing? ”

"The second uncle is old, and he can't move anymore. said that he would stay in Shangjing and enjoy his old age. said that he could also be closer to his daughter. And he was injured and had no soldiers and no power, only the title of a duke, and as soon as Ling'er died, he was completely no threat to those people, so there would be no danger. ”

"That's right, there is only one daughter left in the old bones, and now the white-haired people send the black-haired people, which is also pitiful."

"Well, it's said that my health is not as good as before, and I can't go out in the house almost all year round, and the limit is approaching."
