Chapter 156: Progress

After Zhongli's eyes flickered a few times, he immediately understood where the other party and his previous discussion had progressed, and nodded quickly like pounding garlic.

"Okay, I'm very happy to be able to contribute to our Apocalypse soldiers."

The generals and lieutenants standing next to Zhongli immediately arched their hands towards Zhongli and praised him for being generous, serving the country and the people.

Zhongli hurriedly got up and didn't accept the compliment.

To achieve his goal, Zhao Yiyan let people leave, leaving only Zhongli in the camp tent and saying that he had something to discuss.

"The second round is about to begin! This time, 50,000 is enough! ”

The border city was originally relatively desolate and less populated.

It was still very easy for Zhao Yiyan to find a place to Tibetans, so after the previous war, he secretly dispersed the people he had hidden directly to the territory he was already optimistic about.

Zhongli couldn't help but frown.

"Others don't know, but we know that this time we said that we were caught off guard on the surface, but in fact we were caught off guard by ourselves. So this time I was able to hide so many people, but what about next time? Are you sure that 50,000 people can stay? ”

Fifty thousand!

Although it is not a large number compared to those tens of thousands of people, after the abrupt occurrence, if someone is interested in studying it carefully, they can still see a clue.

Zhao Yiyan smiled and shook his head gently.

"So that's why I called you over, you ...... like that"

After listening to Zhao Yiyan's words, Zhongli couldn't help but look at each other with bright eyes, his expression was shocked and surprised, he nodded quickly towards Zhao Yiyan and made an "OK" gesture.

"Big brother, please rest assured, I will be fortunate not to be dishonored in this matter!"

Leaving the barracks, Zhongli immediately went into action.

With his reputation for going to the barracks to treat the plague with a doctor, he wrote to many doctors, saying that the barracks had recruited doctors to come and treat seriously injured soldiers.

At the same time, I don't know where it came from, that is, the defeat of this army was entirely due to the problem of the weapons manufactured, which caused the soldiers participating in the battle to have a lot of weight on their hands.

Capital.

"Nonsense! Who exactly? Check it out for me! ”

The emperor was originally very happy that Zhao Yiyan's defeat had weakened his strength, but he didn't expect that the prefect below would hand over such an excerpt, not even directly to him, but through the layers below.

What annoyed him the most was not this, but the person mentioned by the prefect in the fold, the secret stake he planted next to Zhao Yiyan.

So, he was furious.

"Your Majesty, please calm your anger."

"Your Majesty, please calm your anger!"

……

In the court, all the civil and military ministers immediately knelt down towards the emperor and spoke loudly.

The emperor's anger rose more and more, and he snorted coldly, stretched out his hand and pointed at them and shouted and cursed.

"Go, check it out for me immediately, I must be careful and serious about this matter. When the time comes, if anyone is involved, I will definitely not forgive. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

……

The sound of patting the sycophants sounded again, and the emperor flicked his sleeves and left the court, his face as black as a dark cloud on the horizon.

After the next dynasty, many people had gathered in Zhao Zijian's mansion.

"Sibeile, now is a great opportunity for us, if we can involve the prince's people in it, I am not afraid that the emperor will not pursue it."

Some staff members' eyes lit up and they quickly spoke.

Zhao Zijian frowned and shook his head, the expression on his face became heavy, he didn't think of the scene where Zhao Zilin threatened him before, and couldn't help gritting his teeth.

"Don't move, don't move."

Looking at the incredulous looks of the other staff, he sneered and opened his mouth with cold eyes.

"Now, whoever moves more will be targeted by his father. And what you can think of, can't the third brother's staff think of it? So even if we don't move, the prince won't have a good time. The most important thing now is to take advantage of this opportunity to cultivate your own people. And you guys think about it, how about Zhao Yiyan? ”

Zhao Yiyan?

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and they all closed their lips and said nothing.

It stands to reason that Zhao Yiyan, as the god of war of the entire Apocalypse, must have a huge influence in the court. But in fact, everyone knows that he is already an outcast.

"Lord Belle, do you want to think about this matter in the long run? According to the current situation, the current situation of King Qingyang is a bit bad! After all, if the battle is really defeated this time, the emperor's wrath can't be said to be the result! ”

Zhao Zijian nodded with a smile, slowly squinted his eyes, thinking of the way Zhongli and Zhao Yiyan got along, and they were now brothers of the opposite sex, couldn't he think of Zhao Yiyan's situation?

No way!

"But who is Zhao Yiyan? Not to mention the death-free gold medal that their family still had at the beginning, let's just say that without Zhao Yiyan, who can defend the border city? And he is a person who does not eat hard and soft, whether it is the prince or the third brother, there is no way to win him over! Don't forget, even if the situation is not good, he is still a person with his own fiefdom. ”

Therefore, in the end, if something really happens, you can still do the last retreat.

The whole room was silent, you look at me, I look at you, and you don't speak. The main thing is that everyone is really not familiar with King Qingyang!

If you choose the wrong ally at that time, you won't be afraid of god-like opponents, but you'll be afraid of pig-like teammates, right?

Seeing that no one could support him, Zhao Zijian put this matter aside for the time being, and began to discuss with them how to let his people profit from this matter.

What happened in the capital, Zhongli didn't know, he was marveling at Zhao Yiyan's thoughtfulness at this time.

He knew before that Zhao Yiyan had a good idea, but he didn't expect that the other party would be able to do it so seamlessly and without leakage.

The day after the news was released, Zhao Yiyan directly tied up one of his officials one by one, and took care of all his family members, and even copied the evidence of the other party's collaboration with the enemy and betrayed the country from his home, and announced it directly with a loud voice, and did not even give the emperor a chance to regret it.

He was originally curious, but he didn't expect Zhao Yiyan to explain that this person was the emperor's.

So the emperor who appeared in the legend is going to die of anger now, right?

However, this is not the most important thing now, the most important thing is that the enemy army has already carried out a second attack, and the troops are divided into three directions, ready to resist hard.

Zhongli sat in the palace, and the old butler stood beside him.

"Second son, let's use something first, right? If the prince knew that you were like this, he would be angry when he came back. ”

Zhongli couldn't help frowning, shook his head at him helplessly, and smiled bitterly.

"Of course I know that people are iron and rice are steel, but I still can't stop worrying."

The old housekeeper didn't like Zhongli before because of his prince's careful thinking about Zhongli, but now that the two of them are brothers, Zhongli has even entered the family tree, he has let go of his prejudices about Zhongli back then, plus Zhongli does care about Zhao Yiyan, and he has a burst of ironing in his heart.

"Second son, don't worry, although it may be a little dangerous, I believe that the prince will not have an accident."

Zhongli smiled bitterly, but he was a little worried in his heart, nothing would happen, what if it happened?

Moreover, he is not married yet!

Thinking of this, Zhongli suddenly turned his head to look at the old butler and looked at him a little blankly.

"Didn't you say before that the emperor rewarded my brother with people? Why have you never seen it? ”

The old butler's face turned red, and he couldn't tell Zhongli that his master had a wrong thought about him at the beginning, so he could only smile and prevaricate.

"It's true that it's a reward, but it's been in the backyard, it's normal that Zhong Gongzi hasn't seen this?"

Zhongli raised an eyebrow and looked at him suspiciously.

He's been in the backyard all the time, and it's normal if he hasn't seen it?

"Uncle butler, don't blame me for being too talkative. The eldest brother fights in the north and south every day, so it's better to get married early, right? At least, how many children to have? ”

This sentence simply reached the heart of the old butler, he reached out and patted his thigh, and you spoke quickly.

"Isn't it? It's just that the general has been saying that he is not in a hurry, and he has been dragging it out until now. If you can, please ask the second son to go back and persuade the prince. Otherwise......"

The old butler shook his head and sighed helplessly.

And Zhongli thought of the fact that he guessed that Zhao Yiyan was a broken sleeve, and couldn't help frowning and biting his lip, looking at the old housekeeper with some suspicion.

"That, Uncle Housekeeper, Big Brother hasn't had a woman for so many years? Is it because women don't know how to serve? Otherwise, even our persuasion will not help, right? ”

He didn't say it so clearly, but opened his mouth tactfully from a different angle.

The butler's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he quickly gave Zhongli a thumbs up, nodding hurriedly.

"Good! Good! Good! ”

Zhongli asked the old butler to take him to the place where the woman lived in the backyard, but he couldn't help but be helpless when he walked over.

No wonder she had never seen that woman, but because this yard was too remote!

Xiao Yuanyuan has been confined here since he arrived here, and he can only be accompanied by the maid and the flowers and plants in the yard every day, and his life is extremely boring.

But if Zhao Yiyan treated her badly, this is not true.

Although it is relatively remote, it is the largest courtyard except for the main courtyard, and all the food used in ordinary times is exquisite and delicate, which is exactly the same as the conditions that I enjoyed at home before.

But there is no freedom, just like a bird whose wings have been cut off, and no matter how beautiful life is, every day is like going to prison.

When Zhongli brought people over, she was lying on the couch gloomily and asked people to read a book to herself.

"Miss, someone's coming!"

The maid beside her heard the movement behind her, and couldn't help but turn her head to look at the person who came, and her face changed quickly, and she quickly lowered her voice and spoke.
