Chapter XI
"Has the head of the family designated anyone to be in charge of the affairs of the whole army during this period?"
As soon as he entered the study, Bai Yunqi couldn't wait to turn around and ask Lang Zhong, who had just walked in.
Indeed, as far as the current situation is concerned, the most important thing is not the process of Li Yuxuan's disappearance, but the question of who is responsible. Being able to see the most important point clearly shows that Bai Yunqi is not only a general, but also has the political insight that a politician has.
"Nope. Lang Zhong replied unusually simply, because this is the actual situation. And Xu Ruoyu specially instructed him before he came, as long as it was a question raised by Bai Yunqi, he must answer it truthfully, and there can be no concealment.
The current situation has reached a time when it is a matter of life and death for the "homeland", Xu Ruoyu needs to get Bai Yunqi's support, and he is sure that Bai Yunqi will eventually support him, because now Bai Yunqi has no choice. The only thing that is uncertain is where the bottom line of Bai Yunqi's support for himself is, and it is more clear that Bai Yunqi will support himself wholeheartedly. If he can't get the complete support of Bai Yunqi, Xu Ruoyu will not have any confidence in controlling the overall situation of the "homeland". Therefore, at this critical time, Xu Ruoyu will definitely not have anything to hide from Bai Yunqi, and only with complete trust in each other can he deal with the unexpected and turbulent things that may occur next.
"Nope!"
In Bai Yunqi's mind, Li Yuxuan has always been a simple but thoughtful person. He takes risks, but he never takes risks. In the head of the householder, he has a detailed plan for everything he does, and he does not allow any mistakes.
Blind adventure is no different from suicide, but a dangerous move after careful preparation is a trick that can kill the opponent. In the past two years or less, the victories of the head of the family and the "homeland" have shown the correctness of this sentence.
However, it is such a person who is almost "god" in the hearts of everyone who has single-handedly pushed the entire "homeland" to an extremely dangerous situation.
Impossible, the head of the house would never be so careless.
Bai Yunqi couldn't believe that Li Yuxuan would make such a simple mistake, but when his gaze met the pain in Lang Zhong's eyes, he also had to believe that it was a fact.
Although all the generals in the entire "homeland" are loyal to the head of the family, if you talk about the most prominent, it is undoubtedly the man standing in front of Bai Yunqi at this moment. It is precisely because of this well-known reason that Lang Zhong was able to take the position of the head of the palace guard. In Lang Zhong's mind, the head of the family is already a god, an omnipotent god, a god who will never make any mistakes. However, this time, Li Yuxuan made such an obvious mistake, a mistake that could ruin the fate of the entire "homeland".
"Anyone can make mistakes, even the head of the house. After all, our head of the family is not yet twenty years old. You are the most intimate general of the head of the family, and you should also know Ruolan's status in the eyes of the head of the family......"
In fact, compared to the head of the family who had been playing the role of "god" before, Bai Yunqi preferred Li Yuxuan, who had made a mistake now.
From one victory to another, from one miracle to another. Li Yuxuan's original image became more and more blurred in Bai Yunqi's mind. Two years ago, Li Yuxuan was still able to make Bai Yunqi feel the unique vigor and momentum of young people. But after experiencing the tempering of cruel wars again and again, Li Yuxuan is now a monarch and commander who is feared by both his generals and enemies. Especially after the battle of "Dong's Castle", Li Yuxuan's thunderous methods not only shocked all opponents who wanted to be enemies, but also shocked all the soldiers up and down the "homeland".
No one can stand in my way, no one can stop my ambitions. Any adversary who dares to be my enemy is the same as choosing death.
Although Bai Yunqi was not on the front line at that time, through various channels, Bai Yunqi still heard the details of the whole incident, and while admiring Li Yuxuan's decisiveness, he was also shocked by his cruel "methods".
But when he told his wife Zhao Yi about this, his wife, who had always been gentle and lovely, did not show any surprise and fear.
"The decision to kill and punish is originally what a superior person should do, and extraordinary people should do extraordinary things. ”
"It's just that this kind of process is too inhumane!" Bai Yunqi also knew that Li Yuxuan, as a monarch, was forced to do this, but he never accepted such a fact. The monarch to whom he is loyal is such a "cruel" person.
"Any change of dynasty is accompanied by bloodshed and sacrifice, which is not just the responsibility of one person, but the responsibility of an era. We can't criticize the head of the family himself, it should be said that this is the choice of the times. ”
Zhao Yi's words made him sigh as a husband, and also made him see the inherent cruelty of war and politics. Perhaps, it was precisely because of these two sentences of Zhao Yi that Bai Yunqi began to mature politically, and finally became one of the founding fathers of the Yuxuantian Empire.
Lang Zhong nodded sadly, in fact, he would rather make a mistake than that person who has always respected the head of the family.
After calming down their state of mind, the conversation between the two shifted to the current crisis facing their "homeland".
"Once the princes are outspoken, the whole army will be troubled."
For Xu Ruoyu's words, Bai Yunqi was deeply touched. In fact, the "homeland" gathered a large number of outstanding generals. In the past two years of campaigning, this group of young people has won one victory at a time on the battlefield, and at the same time, they have also established their prestige and power in the army. Although it is not very obvious at this time, and the so-called factions have not yet been formed, if this situation of "dragons without leaders" continues to develop, it will only be a matter of time.
Indeed, these young men were very outstanding, and compared to the aristocratic children and bureaucrats of Carol before, the energy of these young men was amazing. During their time as heads of households, these young men used their energies on the battlefield and swept across a third of the southern part of the continent. And now, these young people have become crises that could erupt at any time. The greater the energy, the greater the harm.
"In the name of the head of the family, the chief has issued a summoning order to the city guards and legion commanders stationed in various places, requiring everyone to arrive in the capital by the 25th of this month. Lang Zhong first informed Bai Yunqi of Xu Ruoyu's deployment.
Unexpectedly, Xu Ruoyu acted so fast that he dared to forge the warrant of the head of the family and gather the generals.
Seeing the surprise and doubt on Bai Yunqi's face, Lang Zhong explained, "The head of the family left his own Yellow Dragon Order to the chief lord. ”
"Since the Yellow Dragon Order is in the hands of the Chief Lord, it is equivalent to the head of the family handing over the control of the entire 'homeland' to the Chief Lord. In that case, what is there to worry about?"
Bai Yunqi is not a qualified politician after all, at least he is far less than Xu Ruoyu, who is just seventeen years old, in politics.
"That's what you have to worry about!"
A tactful and beautiful voice came out from behind the screen in the study, and at the same time suppressed the two generals, Lang Zhong and Bai Yunqi.
"Who?" Lang stood up from his chair suddenly, his eyes like rings, staring at the screen in his hand.
"Lang Zhong doesn't have to be nervous, he is just General Bai's insider. ”
Behind the screen, a stunningly dressed woman with a smile on her face turned out.
"It turned out to be Madame. Lang Zhong bowed slightly, sat down in the chair, and his face was still a little displeased. Obviously, Lang Zhong did not welcome Zhao Yi's appearance at this moment.
Bai Yunqi didn't expect his wife to hide behind the screen to "eavesdrop" on his secret conversation with Lang Zhong, and his face was a little embarrassed.
"Don't get me wrong, the two generals have been here for a long time long before the two of them. Zhao Yi's bright and fresh smile instantly diluted the original tense atmosphere in the study. Bai Yunqi and Lang Zhong couldn't help but turn their bodies in the chair and changed their original posture of sitting upright.
"The key to the whole matter lies in the Huang Long Order of the head of this Fang family. Zhao Yi did not stop his analysis because of the displeasure on Lang Zhong's face.
"Why Huanglongling?" Lang Zhong obviously didn't understand the meaning of Zhao Yi's words, and Bai Yunqi, as a husband, thought of something from his wife's words, lowered his head and stared, reconsidering the whole thing in his heart.
"As the saying goes, 'If you don't have the right name, you don't say the right thing.'" If there was no Huanglong Order, it would be impossible for all the generals above and below the 'homeland' to replace the head of the family to control the entire 'homeland'. But now it is different, it is precisely because of this Yellow Dragon Decree that the power is put in front of the princes everywhere. Whoever obtains this Yellow Dragon Order will be able to justifiably obtain the supreme authority of the 'homeland'. Therefore, if possible, the Huanglong Order will not only not be a proof of deterrence to generals everywhere, but will become a fuse for conflicts between generals everywhere. The day the Yellow Dragon Order was announced was the time when the 'homeland' fell apart. ”
