Mu Zizhao hesitated for a moment and sat down.

"I heard that since you were five years old, you have been taken by Master Mu to train horses in the stable?" Li Junze asked softly.

Mu Zizhao shook his head.

Li Junze was surprised: "Isn't it?" ”

"It's three years old." Mu Zizhao said, "Our Mu family has been staying with the war horse since the age of three and growing up with the pony, so that when they grow up, they will have a tacit understanding and the horses will be obedient." ”

I have to say that the Mu family does have a hand in horse taming, and a three-year-old child, afraid that he can't even walk steadily, dares to take it to the stable, what does such an older child know?

However, Zhao Siyan understood that maybe Mu Zizhao grew up with horses since he was a child, so his mind was relatively simple.

Zhao Siyan didn't want to listen to it, such Mu Zizhao was not Li Junze's opponent at all, and he was afraid that if he didn't say a few words, he would be bought by Li Junze.

Zhao Siyan's face showed a look of interest.

Over there, Mu Zizhao had already sat down, and Li Junze personally poured a cup of tea for Mu Zizhao.

Mu Zizhao couldn't help but be a little flattered.

Li Junze opened his mouth, "Over the years, the Dengzhou Army has been famous and has a lot of achievements, and they are all talking about how difficult the Dengzhou Army is, but no one is saying that the Mu family has made contributions to the supply of war horses. ”

When Mu Zizhao heard this, he immediately looked at Li Junze in surprise, and his eyes moved slightly.

Over the years, the status of the Mu family in Dengzhou has been very detached, but in fact, there are very few people who respect the Mu family and look up to the Mu family, and they all call the Mu family 'horse breeders', after all, the Mu family deals with animals all the year round and is regarded as a cheap industry, not as good as a real farmer.

This is that war horses must be used to fight, and they are inseparable from the Mu family, but just like military generals, they can't do without the soldiers who fight, and at the same time look down on military generals.

Even the Mu family will be despised when they go out, so over the years, the Mu family has rarely shown up.

However, Li Junze said that the Mu family contributed to the war.

Li Junze met Mu Zizhao's eyes, "Actually, I know that the Mu family has not had a good time over the years, but the Mu family has been insisting, not caring about those contemptuous eyes, but still insisting on raising horses and taming horses, for the banner and the people of Dengzhou." ”

Mu Zizhao's eyes moved slightly, but he said with some indignation: "So what, they look down on the Mu family all the same!" My mother will still be despised when she goes out, or will someone say that she has a smell on her, how can she have a smell? My mother loves cleanliness so much......"

It's just someone else's prejudice.

"I know, I know the grievances of the Mu family, but after so many years, the Mu family has persevered, but now they have to give up?" Li Junze's eyes suddenly became sharp: "The Mu family told me that there are no horses, I can believe it, but I can't understand what it is, what can crush the pride and persistence of the Mu family, and give up the faith and pride of their ancestors!" ”

Mu Zizhao was questioned by his words, and raised his head suddenly: "Why does the Mu family have to continue to persevere?" Who are we protecting? Are those people who have never looked down on the Mu family? Why! Shall we stop doing it? ”

"If the Mu family can't listen to these gossips, they can't pass it on to this day, gossip can't defeat the Mu family, and prejudice is the same!" Li Junze said sharply, "That's why I came in person, even if Da Liao is eyeing the city now, and he may call at any time, I still came." ”

As soon as Li Junze's voice fell, Jiang Yi said: "It is a big crime for the main general to venture into the military camp, if it is known by those civil officials, it is even more of a big crime for the prince of the world, although the prince of the world has been fully prepared before he comes out, but if the people of Da Liao suddenly attack the city, we are still very passive." ”

But even so, Li Junze still came, naturally it couldn't be for the sake of Mu Zizhao, a young man, and for the persistence of several generations of the Mu family.

"In the past, Daqi's horses were not good, and they must not be domesticated by Daliao, because of this, the Dengzhou army suffered a lot of losses, and it was the Mu family who began to tame horses, and they persisted so far that Daqi had excellent war horses!" Li Junze's voice was decisive, "For so many years, the war horses of the Dengzhou Army have been cultivated by the Mu family, and there has never been a mistake, do you really want to ruin the Mu family's century-old reputation?" ”

Mu Zizhao listened, and his voice was already red.

In the next room, Zhao Siyan listened quietly, but thought of her father, the cold reception that the Mu family had received, and all the generals had also suffered it, obviously a hero who defended the country, but he was despised by the civil officials.

This is a concept that has existed since the founding of Daqi, and even the military himself thinks so, thinking that the military generals are one level lower than the civilian officials.

She hated it, but she didn't know how to change it.

These words, Mu Wei is here, I am afraid that he will be moved, let alone Mu Zizhao, who is not deeply involved in the world? Mu Zizhao took a deep breath, and his voice was a little choked: "I said, I can't help it, it's my father's ......"

"Did someone coerce you?" Li Junze interrupted him, "It's someone from the palace?" ”

Mu Zizhao raised his head and looked at Li Junze in disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost.

Li Junze was secretly funny in his heart, he had been dealing with Zhao Siyan for a long time, and he almost forgot that in fact, most people are very normal, not everyone has Zhao Siyan's honor and disgrace.

"I've been put on the table, how many horses are missing? I always want to know why, right? Li Junze said lightly, his expression was unfathomable.

Mu Zizhao admired Li Junze very much before, watched him catch Da Liao's spies, and now came to see him in person, talked to him so much, and said that he understood the situation of the Mu family, and even knew that there was a reason why their Mu family refused to give horses.

He thought of what Li Junze said before, and his heart swayed.

Li Junze thought for a while, and said: "Actually, I have always known about the contribution of the Mu family over the years, and I have been trying to find a way to ask for credit for the Mu family. ”

In fact, if the Mu family had an official body, it would be for the imperial court to train horses, and today's incident would not have happened, because it has become the responsibility of the Mu family to train war horses for the Dengzhou army.

But the problem is here, Daqi even looks down on military generals, how can he look down on the Mu family, a horse breeder? Not to mention the official body, a person who deals with brutes can still be an official? That's humiliating.

Therefore, the Mu family and the imperial court are actually only cooperative, the Mu family raises horses, and the imperial court buys them, so now the Mu family says that there are no horses, and the imperial court cannot force them to buy.

In fact, even the previous dynasty also had an official position of full-time horse trainer, but the banner has always emphasized literature and suppressed martial arts, and it will not set up an official position for animals, so there is no one.

Li Junze's father, King Yi, once said with a smile that the national fortune of Daqi can come to this day, and it is really the blessing of the ancestors.

Li Junze's words really surprised Mu Zizhao, he raised his head and looked at Li Junze in disbelief and said, "Is this true?" ”

"I've always counted when I talk." Li Junze said lightly.

It's obviously the first time they've met, but Li Junze has something powerful that people can't ignore, which is probably the aura, which makes people involuntarily trust him, believing that everything he says can be done.

Mu Zizhao is no exception.

Mu Zizhao wrinkled his brows and pondered for a while, before he mustered up the courage to say, "Okay!" The prince actually exalted my Mu family like this, and my Mu family is not the kind of person who doesn't know what to do, I must go home as soon as possible and convince my father! ”

Li Junze nodded slowly, paused, and said, "That chamberlain is threatening Ling Zun?" ”

When Mu Zizhao heard this, he pursed his lips and said, "I didn't see him, it was my father who saw him, the dead eunuch...... After the waiter left, my father's face was a little bad, and then he said that he would not train the horse, and I overheard the conversation between my father and my mother......"

Speaking of this, he still glanced at Li Junze with some embarrassment, Li Junze smiled easily, and then he continued.

"I realized that the man was here to threaten us, saying that if we continue to provide war horses to the Dengzhou army, we will get ......into trouble," Mu Zizhao said that he was still a little apprehensive, worried about whether his recklessness would bring disaster to the family.

Li Junze said: "Don't worry, I will protect the Mu family." ”

Mu Zizhao nodded heavily, looked at Li Junze with a look of trust and said, "I believe in the prince!" ”

Yes, another one who has been successfully brainwashed, Jiang Yi secretly complained in his heart, but he admired his master's wisdom and martial arts very much, and no one could resist the charm of their prince!

Jiang Yi was thinking proudly, but his eyes couldn't help but glance next door, no, there was one in the room, and it was still a woman......

Jiang Yi's thoughts were a little erratic.

Li Junze said: "It's best if Zizhao is willing to persuade Master Mu, but this matter is not Zizhao's business alone, you go back first, and then I will visit in person." ”

Mu Zizhao was stunned for a moment, he promised to help persuade his father, Li Junze is still willing to go to Mu's house? He's the prince of the world! Even the county order has not been on the door of his house!

It seems that Li Junze is really different from others.

Li Junze's words made Mu Zizhao trust Li Junze for two points.

In fact, Li Junze just did a very normal thing, but because of the prejudice of the world, they rejected and despised horse trainers, so a normal thing became abnormal.

But Li Junze didn't think there was anything about it, he never looked down on the Mu family, and he didn't feel that it was any shame.

Mu Zizhao stood up, his little face was solemn when he came, but it was red, it was really black and red, he arched his hand: "Then I will go back to Ming Father first, and wait for the prince to drive!" ”

Even the voice was much louder.

Li Junze smiled and bowed his head.

The prince is really good-looking, the good-looking and amiable prince, Mu Zizhao's face turned red again, "Then, then I won't disturb the prince to rest, so I'll leave first." ”

Li Junze nodded: "I also want to rush back to Dengzhou, I don't worry about the army." ”

It seems that Li Junze is here completely for him, if something happens in the army, wouldn't their Mu family be the culprit? Mu Zizhao blamed himself in his heart.

Mu Zizhao thought too much, although he was the main reason, it was definitely not the only reason, but this did not affect Mu Zizhao's emotion.

After Mu Zizhao left, Zhao Siyan and Gu Chenfeng walked out one after another.

Gu Chenfeng looked at Li Junze, "It seems that the imperial court is afraid of us." ”

Li Junze didn't speak, but looked at Zhao Siyan: "What does Miss Zhao think?" ”

Zhao Siyan thought for a while, and then said: "I thought that the Jiangnan Rebellion was not going well, and the imperial court did not have time to take care of the affairs of Dengzhou, but now it seems that the imperial court has already made arrangements, and a war horse will make it difficult for us to move an inch." ”

I don't know what Zhao Siyan said, which made the moody prince happy again, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and he was in a good mood at first glance.

Li Junze said with a smile: "The Jiangnan Rebellion is not smooth, otherwise the imperial court would not have stopped so much, before Zhang Hongming played the impeachment of me, the emperor did not ask, it can be seen that there is no time to take care of Dengzhou." ”

Zhao Siyan and Li Junze glanced at each other, and there was a message in their eyes that the emperor had no time to take care of them, so they had time to develop their own forces.

"But that's also a matter of time or time," Gu Chenfeng said: "It is the emperor Nanping Marquis who quells the rebellion, and this person leads the troops is also a bit of a way, and the rebel army is just a group of rabble, with low military ability, incomplete equipment, and no supplies, no matter how much it jumps, it is just a grasshopper after the autumn, as long as the war in Jiangnan subsides, the imperial court will definitely not let Dengzhou go alone." ”

Now he doesn't move, but he doesn't have the energy, the emperor asked Li Junze to come over, but not to let him come to fight and build military achievements.

Zhao Siyan thought for a while, and then said: "I remember, He Yugui met the inner servant, and then the imperial court asked for reinforcements, and named He Yugui to lead troops to support, right?" ”

Li Junze was stunned for a moment when he heard this, frowned slightly, thought about it secretly, and instantly understood what she meant, his eyes were as bright as stars.

"Good strategy!" Li Junze couldn't help but admire.

Gu Chenfeng looked a little puzzled, he never felt stupid, on the contrary, he had always been smart, but he didn't understand Zhao Siyan's words at the first time.

"Cousin, I am stupid for my brother, and I ask my cousin to solve my doubts for my foolish brother." Gu Chenfeng didn't feel ashamed to admit that he didn't understand, so he asked for advice very politely.

Li Junze frowned, this cousin or something, it's really annoying, where are so many relatives here?

Zhao Siyan smiled, she didn't speak because she knew that Gu Chenfeng could figure it out herself.

Gu Chenfeng looked at Li Junze, thought carefully about Zhao Siyan's words, and immediately understood.

"You mean......" Gu Chenfeng also showed a smile: "Wonderful! This He family is obviously connected to the palace, and they also named him to go to Jiangnan, which is obviously a share of credit! I don't want Nanping Hou to take the credit alone! ”

Nanping Hou is the little uncle of the current emperor, he is not young this year, he is a veteran, this time the emperor can send him out, it can be seen that the emperor is really anxious.

"Dongchang has always been at odds with his relatives, and they can't reach out in Dengzhou, so they can only fight for the battlefield in the south of the Yangtze River." Li Junze said, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

If you want the imperial court to take care of Dengzhou, the best way is that the peace and chaos in Jiangnan cannot be completed, which will affect the attention of the imperial court.

And now Jiangnan is the power contest between Pingnanhou and Dongchang, and it will not end for a while.

This is what Zhao Siyan really meant, she is reminding Li Junze that the matter in Jiangnan is not without a turning point, as long as the contradiction between her relatives and Dongchang is deepened, the counterinsurgency in Jiangnan will not go smoothly.

Gu Chenfeng understood the key, and also felt that this was a good way, looking at Zhao Siyan's eyes became brighter and brighter, she was like a treasure, making people discover more and more of her beauty, and also making him feel more and more surprised.

Zhao Siyan thought for a while, and then said: "We need time now, so we can only delay time, let's cultivate and recuperate first." ”

When Li Junze heard her words, he couldn't help but move, looked at her, and said with a smile: "Well, we will be fine." ”

We, a bit of an intimate name, Zhao Siyan couldn't help but laugh dumbly, this person began to hold grudges again, always thinking about the time when she was not optimistic about him before, and now she always has to remind her.

There was an indescribable atmosphere between the two, as if no one could fit in.

Li Junze said: "Lord Zhao is on the battlefield, the second wife must be very worried, right?" ”

Zhao Siyan nodded and sighed, "How can you not be worried?" Since my father left, my mother has not slept peacefully, and she said that the wife of a military general has to bear it. ”

Li Junze was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "I actually want to go into battle to kill the enemy." ”

Zhao Siyan: "??? ”

Li Junze is always helpless against Zhao Siyan, but every time Zhao Siyan faces Li Junze, he also has a sense of speechlessness.

Just like now, she has almost no way to react, isn't it right to go to the battlefield as a commander?

Gu Chenfeng's face changed suddenly, his hand tightened slightly, but he looked at Li Junze: "The prince of the world is auspicious, he will definitely be fine!" ”

Li Junze glanced at him lightly, Gu Chenfeng's expression froze, and he didn't speak again.

Zhao Siyan didn't pay attention to the confrontation between the two men, she said: "It's not too early, I should go back too, my mother should be worried." ”

Li Junze nodded: "I'm going back to Dengzhou too." After a pause, he glanced at Gu Chenfeng, and then said, "If you have anything, please ask Chenfeng to bring me a message." ”

Jiang Yi couldn't help but glance at Li Junze, didn't this create an opportunity for Zhao Siyan and Gu Chenfeng to be together? How generous is their son?

Zhao Siyan was just about to turn around and walk out, Jiang Yi said, "Miss Zhao, you can bring my apprentice to me in a while." ”

His words attracted the sideways glances of Li Junze and Gu Chenfeng.

Jiang Yi looked innocent: "That's my apprentice!" ”

Zhao Siyan smiled and nodded, "I will definitely let him come over, Wen Xi must be very happy to know." ”

After Zhao Siyan finished speaking, he turned around and walked out.

Li Junze looked at her back and whispered, "It's really a chess game." "Actually let Jiang Yi take advantage.

Thinking of this, Li Junze forgot Jiang Yi for a word.
