The moon stars are scarce.

For Yanjing, which has always been cloudy, it has been a long time since I have seen such a refreshing night sky.

As if overnight, the tiresome sounds and annoying things that hung over the city disappeared, and the citizens breathed a sigh of relief, and they didn't know how many people opened their windows to watch the starry sky at this moment.

An old man in a military uniform stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the sky.

The room he was in was huge, about 100 square meters in this room alone.

The place is large, but there are not many utensils in the room, so it seems a little empty. An octagonal glass lamp with a top, reflecting the ornate red and gold-rimmed carpet below, near the window, is a teak table, which requires eight adults to enclose, adding some prestige to this room, but apart from the closet built against the wall on the right-hand side, and the two sofas in the middle of the room, there are no other ornaments in this room, so it is impossible to tell whether this is luxury or frugality.

However, this is actually very ordinary in terms of the identity of the old man, and you have to ask why, because this is the marshal's office of the Marshal of the Asian Union Navy Marshal's Mansion. For a person who stands at the apex of the Admiral of the Asian League, the layout of this arrangement is small.

Compared with other generals in Yanjing, the only marshal today naturally has some privileges, for example, he is allowed not to go to the headquarters, but to work in his marshal's mansion, and in order to show the marshal's style, he built this office in accordance with the marshal's specifications, although these are not Yuan Zhenhai's original intentions, but he can't refuse, responsibility has always been tied to power.

Like now, he can't get out of here.

"Tuk-tuk." Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

"Come in." He didn't bother to ask who was coming, because there seemed to be only one person who would come at this point in time.

Her name was Yamato, the secretary ship of the naval commander Yuan Zhenhai.

The long ponytail is her logo, and it feels perfect for a beautiful woman in a kimono. He is twenty-six years old, only one year older than Yuan Yi.

From a certain point of view, she is also one of Yuan Yi's childhood sweethearts, even closer than Yang Yue, because she, like Yuan Yi, was adopted by Yuan Zhenhai.

Yuan Zhenhai Rongma all his life, his wife died at the age of 30, he never married a wife, and there were no biological heirs under his knees, but later adopted a few, in addition to Yuan Yi and Yamato, Yuan Yi also has a cousin who is eight years older than him, named Huang Tingfeng, who came from a dead old subordinate, but unlike Yuan Yi, who followed the surname Yuan, and now also works in the agency in Yanjing.

Earlier, the three brothers and sisters were still very close and harmonious, but since Yuan Yi did that unkind thing a year ago, the three of them have completely turned their faces, Huang Tingfeng reprimanded him in public, and since then they have cut off contact, and Yamato has also not forgiven Yuan Yi so far.

This matter is actually not difficult to understand, because the seven-day coup d'état launched by Yuan Yi at that time was, to put it bluntly, a mutiny to seize power.

Mutiny, mutiny, mutiny, mutiny, mutiny, mutiny Seize power, whose power did he take?

There is only one answer, the naval command, but if he does this, it is invisibly equivalent to opposing him as the first person in power in the Asian League, if he does not take down the marshal who commands the navy departments, it is simply wishful thinking to succeed in the coup, so Yuan Yi did do what he did to let Iowa tie up Yamato, and then put his adoptive father under house arrest in the marshal's mansion.

Since then, Yamato has hated this wolf-hearted guy so much, and he has always treated him as his own brother because she still loved him so much before.

When the seven-day coup d'état that shook the entire Asian Union ended, Yuan Yi obediently returned the military power, and waited for the fate of himself, and some people persuaded Old Man Yuan to cut off his tail to protect himself and hand over a Yuan Yi, you are still the selfless leader, we will all listen to you.

But Yuan Zhenhai didn't do it, not only that, but he also privately protected Yuan Yi, otherwise, with the guys who had been humiliated at that time, Yuan Yi would have died 10,000 times. Although this matter is unclear on the surface, as the marshal's secretary ship, Yamato actually knows that the result of Yuan Yi's trial in the military court was the result of Old Man Yuan's compromise with those military and political figures, and he promised to delegate power, so as to save Yuan Yi's life, and finally assigned the matter.

That's why Admiral Peng Sicher commented that the old man was still alive for a day, so naturally no one would move Yuan Yi, but after the old man died, that kid would definitely be torn to pieces.

If Yuan Yi had died, Yamato would not have hated him so much if he had made a mistake when his younger brother was young and reckless, but now, Lian's adoptive father is in such a difficult situation, in Yamato's opinion, Yuan Yi is to blame even if he dies.

After Yuan Zhenhai's reputation fell, coupled with the fact that he had to fulfill his promise to delegate power, the decline of the Marshal's Mansion began with this, which was for the bigwigs of the Navy and Military Department. As for the others, because the relationship between Yuan Yi and Yuan Zhenhai is here, rumors and rumors must be indispensable, which makes some people who are clean and self-conscious, or greedy and powerful, abandon this marshal who was beautiful in the past.

Although no one dared to propose that the marshal take the blame and resign, take responsibility or something, the Yuan family still inevitably weakened day by day, and even those side families (the Yuan family was a famous navy) now openly adopted an attitude of respecting and staying away from their own family.

There's an old saying that the wall falls down and everyone pushes it.

Thinking of this, Yamato couldn't help but sigh, but she didn't let Yuan Yi let Yuan Zhenhai see her expression and think of these unpleasant things, so she sorted out her mood and quickly covered up the past.

"Lord Marshal, it's time to take your medicine." When he said this, Yamato did hold a medicine jar in his hand.

"There are no outsiders here, just call me father." The old man turned his head and smiled lovingly.

"Yes, Father." Yamato gently rested the medicine jar on the extravagant desk, and she noticed that there were several reports on the Kuroshio front, and the one that was being spread out was from the Eastern Front.

Who is on the Eastern Front, Yamato will not know, but when he thought of Yuan Yi's hippie smiling face without a proper face, Yamato suddenly lost his good mood.

Just like Yamato understands Yuan Zhenhai, after all, she is her daughter who has grown up watching her for more than 20 years, Yuan Zhenhai just swept the expression on Yamato's face, and knew what she was thinking: "Why, it's been so long, and you're still blaming him?" ”

Not at all.

Yamato said, but she is very smart, and she knows that in this matter, her father has already taken a good attitude and will not change, otherwise this huge marshal's mansion would not be empty to this point.

"There's nothing to forgive or not forgive," Yamato said lightly: "By the way, father, Minister Tong of the Ministry of Personnel asked me to ask you, this year's shipwrewn distribution issue, how many places will be left in our Yanjing headquarters, and how many places will be in the town guard mansion in the decentralized area?" "Yamato, as a secretary ship, naturally has the task of coordinating the work of the marshal.

Yuan Zhenhai asked her unhurriedly: "Do you know what Tong Wei means by asking?" ”

Yamato nodded.

"What do you mean?"

"He told us that he was still willing to be on our side in the current situation." Yamato replied unhurriedly.

Yuan Zhenhai looked at her with satisfaction and commented: "Yamato, among the three people, your political sense is the keenest, but it's a pity that ......"

Although Yuan Zhenhai didn't say anything about pity, Yamato heard it very clearly, it was a question about the heir, no matter how good Yamato was, she would not inherit Yuan Zhenhai's position, it would not be recognized by others, and the old marshal was 71 years old this year.

"My brother is also very powerful."

Speaking of this, Yuan Zhenhai sighed: "Ah Feng is indeed good, but he is too impatient and self-willed, so he is not suitable to take over my class." ”

Then the rest of the one, Yamato doesn't want to think about it anymore.

"Father, drink the medicine quickly, lest you get cold." Although Yamato wanted to speak out, he chose to remain silent in the end.

Yuan Zhenhai also knew what she wanted to say, so he also ordered it, and obediently took a few sips of the medicine jar.

put down the medicine jar, but heard Yuan Zhenhai talk about the topic just now: "Ah Yi, he is actually inappropriate." ”

Yamato didn't expect him to say this, because among the three brothers (sisters), Yuan Yi was the most favored by the old man. Don't get me wrong, the old man is a marshal, and his family education is naturally very strict, and the boss Huang Tingfeng made a little mistake and was trained like a dog, but for this little son, Yuan Zhenhai let him do whatever he wanted. When he was a child, he wanted to learn martial arts, the old man said okay, and then he stopped practicing, he wanted to go to the Naval Academy, the old man said you go, the academy is hanging doors, the old man doesn't care at all, and later graduated from the Naval Academy, and the old man personally interceded for him to get him into the logistics department and let him continue to eat and wait for death.

If it weren't for the third child, you would have been expelled from the house or beaten to death by someone else.

Could it be that the old man said when he was angry: "Blame my surname Huang and not Yuan." ”

This incident was quite big at the time, Huang Tingfeng was almost cut off by Yuan Zhenhai father-son relationship, and then the boss knelt at the door of the old man for two whole days, and everyone interceded vigorously, and finally the old man forgot it.

The difference in treatment here, not only the boss muttered, but even the subordinates of the Marshal's Mansion guessed, will this third child be a descendant?

After all, Yuan Yi's identity has always been a mystery, he was brought for adoption when he was five years old, about his previous resume, who is his surname, and what his parents are from, all of them are mysteries, the old man only has one sentence, this child will have my surname in the future, and his single name is Yi.

It's not that it's impossible to say where this really came from.

Moreover, the old man's evaluation of him has always been high, not low: "His ability is enough, but his personality is not suitable, and he is too naïve." The water in the Navy Command is too dirty and muddy, and to be honest, I'd rather he live in peace for the rest of his life. ”

"Father?" Yamato was taken aback, she always felt that there seemed to be something strange in Yuan Zhenhai's words just now.

But Yuan Zhenhai didn't continue, he drank the last bit of soup in the medicine jar, the battle-hardened old marshal obviously didn't frown because of this bitterness, he turned his head and continued to look at the rare bright sea of stars tonight.

"Don't be afraid of endless haze, and see the sun after the wind and rain."

I don't know if it's because of Rong Ma's career, or because of the scenery in front of him, the old marshal said. (To be continued.) )
