They began to try to place people in Ji Yongan's barracks, but when they finally opened the joint, Ji Yongan had already been promoted again because of his military exploits.

Since then, they have been chasing after Ji Yongan, and every time he changes places, these people are deliberately running or stuffing people into it, or trying to win over and buy those soldiers around Ji Yongan.

However, Ji Yongan was promoted smoothly every time at a speed that made them depressed to vomit blood, before they arranged everything.

Like him, Mu Qingyun and Yan Nanxiao, two of his hardcore men, were Mu Qingyun and Yan Nanxiao, who were now no longer in the same barracks, but were in charge of an army.

It took Ji Yongan less than two years to quickly rise from the bottom to the high position of the general of the Zhengerpin Town Army.

Although Yan Nanxiao and Mu Qingyun were promoted at a slightly inferior speed to him, they were also promoted by Ji Heng to the general of the Fu Army at the same time two and a half years after joining the army.

In addition to their ranks, they also have the opportunity to wield real power.

Now each of them has a tiger and wolf army under their command, although the number of troops they are in charge of is only 50,000, but the 50,000 in their hands is obviously not the same as the 50,000 in the hands of others.

Many generals in the barracks envy Ji Yongan and others for their good leadership of the troops, and there is one who only talks about benefits and does not save face, so they simply rely on asking Ji Yongan and them to help them train the army under their command.

Ji Yongan and they didn't hide it, but whenever someone asked to come to the door, Ji Yongan and they would do their best to help each other formulate a training plan.

As a result, Ji Yongan's prestige in the army suddenly approached several deputy generals under Ji Heng's command.

Some people want to take advantage of this to make waves, saying that Ji Yongxin has bad intentions and deliberately attracts people's hearts, but Ji Heng is not moved at all.

In Ji Heng's opinion, Ji Yongan is actually very measured.

Although he has been trying to make himself stronger, the methods he uses are all above board, and there is nothing unsatisfactory in the slightest.

And he didn't frame his brothers, fight openly and secretly with Ji Heng's concubines, and didn't collude with other generals to try to set up Ji Heng's father.

On the contrary, it was Ji Heng's concubines who didn't dare to fight in the most dangerous places, and only dared to go to a relatively safe place to "gild" under the protection of their respective families, not to mention, and they would always make some small actions behind their backs.

On the one hand, Ji Yongan, who has never done anything to his relatives, and on the other hand, Ji Heng's group of concubines who have always made small moves, Ji Heng is not confused, who to trust and who to value, Ji Heng knows very well in his heart.

Besides, Ji Heng also has his own pride, he doesn't think that he is so incompetent that he needs to suppress his son to ensure his position in the army.

Ji Heng is not fooled, even if Ji Heng's concubines are so angry that they still have no way to take Ji Yongan.

On the contrary, Ji Yongping, who lost the stupid biological mother of Concubine Liu, and at the same time lost the biggest backer of the Liu family, because there was no other way out, so he could only grit his teeth and stomp his feet, and chose the same path as Ji Yongan.

However, he lived too comfortably a few years ago, and his skills were not as good as one-fifth of Ji Yongan's, plus he didn't have super help like Mu Qingyun, He Shuning and Yan Nanxiao, so even if he entered the barracks, the speed of promotion was far less rapid than Ji Yongan's.

***

In the autumn of the fourth year when Ji Yongan's senior sister and brother joined the army, Da Chu finally fought outside Kyoto.

The so-called "Great Zhou", which has lost most of its land and is in chaos in the south and north, finally ushered in its final battle with Dachu on this day.

The Empress Dowager Zhang's party, who was extremely poor and extravagant, as if they were enjoying the last carnival before death, had already been scared by the Great Chu army over the years, and they chose to secretly go south the day before the Great Chu soldiers came to the city.

The puppet emperor, who had been sitting on the dragon chair for more than ten years, woke up, and realized that he had been completely abandoned by Empress Dowager Zhang's party.

That's right, he is already seventeen or eighteen years old, no matter how "obedient" he is, Empress Dowager Zhang will not like him to sit on the dragon chair as an adult who already has his own thoughts.

They left him alone, only taking away his good empress who was pregnant and from the Zhang family, apparently ready to sacrifice him as an "outsider", and then let the "Empress Dowager Zhang" and "Empress Dowager Zhang" continue to control the government.

As soon as he thought of this, the corners of the little emperor's lips couldn't help but hook up a mocking smile.

The Great Zhou is gone, and the Zhang family is still thinking about "coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes", he really can't understand where they got this paranoia from.

"Emperor, Emperor..." Since he was very young, his henchman eunuch, who had been serving by his side, looked at His Majesty who suddenly laughed with tears in his eyes.

"Go and invite my grandfather into the palace." The little emperor got barefoot on the dragon bed, "and then let the imperial dining room prepare a little food for me to pad my stomach." ”

The little emperor's maternal grandfather was originally the national son of the Great Zhou Dynasty, because his daughter was selected by the Empress Dowager Zhang and became one of the tools for the first emperor to give birth to a son, the little emperor's maternal grandfather had no choice but to show weakness to the Zhang family by resigning.

The old man tried to make his own direct concession to make Empress Dowager Zhang relax and not kill his daughter.

But who is Empress Dowager Zhang? How could she possibly leave the little emperor's biological mother and let her share the position of queen mother with herself?

So in the winter of the year before the little emperor ascended the throne, the little emperor's biological mother was found drowned in the imperial garden.

Since then, the little emperor has been raised by Empress Dowager Zhang in his palace.

When the little emperor came of age, Empress Dowager Zhang put her niece on the throne of the queen.

In this way, the little emperor was completely pinched in the palm of their hands by their Zhang family.

Of course, the little emperor also thought about breaking away from the control of the Zhang family and avenging his biological mother, but he was always powerless.

He wants no people, no money, not to mention those ministers in the court, he can't even fully control the palace maids and eunuchs who serve around him.

The only eunuch who is truly loyal to him is actually the person of the Empress Dowager Zhang, but the other party has already secretly taken refuge in his little master and betrayed the sweet-faced and bitter Empress Dowager Zhang.

When his henchmen and eunuchs took the order, the little emperor turned his attention to the palace maids and eunuchs outside his bedroom.

These palace maids and eunuchs have already been completely confused.

Usually they exist as the eyeliner of the Empress Dowager Zhang, and they only have respect for the little emperor, but they have no sincerity.

At this time, Empress Dowager Zhang abandoned them, who had been used by her, and although the little emperor, who was their nominal "master", was still in the palace, it was impossible for him to shelter them, who did not take him seriously at all.

So what's next for them?

If they escape, the palace gate guards are afraid that they will kill them directly, but if they don't run, how can they struggle to survive in the next period of time?
