Whether a person is arrogant or not depends not only on what he says, but also on his own confidence. If the Great Sword Immortal Shangguan Xianchen shouted that he wanted to go against the sky, it would be arrogant. But if it is replaced by Xiao Yu, who is just in the frost realm, he is a madman who doesn't know the height of the sky. Therefore, Xiao Yu wants to teach Emperor Zheng the rules, this sentence sounds very arrogant.

But this also shows from the side that today's Xiao Yu does have arrogant confidence. The 150,000 elite horsemen of the grassland are Xiao Yu's greatest confidence!

Of course, on this topic, Xiao Yu didn't say anything more in-depth, just passing by, as if he was just making a harmless joke. Shen Dongzan handed the superstitious letter back to Xiao Yu in his hand, Xiao Yu didn't take it anymore, he grabbed it between his two fingers, shook it slightly, and the letter paper turned into a little fly ash and drifted away without a trace.

Xiao Yu sighed and said: "The pawn who crossed the river can't turn back, I am this pawn who crossed the river, and I entered the grassland, but I can go left and right, but I can't go back." Emperor Zheng is the handsome man who is shrinking in the eastern capital, the nine palaces, and the soldiers are blessed, and my little pawn wants to tell him the rules, and there is still a long way to go. ”

Shin Dongzan smiled bitterly.

150,000 to 500,000, even if a large part of these 500,000 are logistics baggage troops and will not directly participate in the battle, but Emperor Zheng will definitely recruit more than one million people to ensure logistics supply, so that Xu Lin's combatable troops are guaranteed to be above 300,000, thus suppressing Xiao Yu's troops by more than double.

It is not a lie to pour out the strength of the Great Zheng Half of the country, this time it is conservatively estimated that Emperor Zheng has mobilized at least more than 300,000 border troops and 200,000 local troops, as well as more than one million people, which is enough to dig out the treasury of Great Zheng. In recent years, Zheng Guo's strength has been declining, although the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, but if this expedition to the grassland fails, it will really hurt the muscles and bones, and this injured muscles and bones are likely to have no chance of recovery, that is, Xiao Yu's death with a smile.

In this war, there will be a life and death between Xiao Yu and Emperor Zheng.

Outside, the snowflakes drifted up again, blurring the already indistinct sky even more.

It's about to be the eighth day of the lunar month, Xiao Yu lost his mind a little, last year he left a sentence in front of the small courtyard to wait for the eighth day of the lunar month next year, but he didn't think that a year's kung fu was so fast, he was still a nobody last year, and now he is also famous all over the world.

Shen Dongzan looked at Xiao Yu's expression, stood up and gave a light salute, and left quietly.

Lin Yinping stretched out his hand and put it on the back of Xiao Yu's hand and patted it gently, "What do you want?"

Xiao Yu came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I'm thinking, now am I considered to be the ancients who said, 'Mo Dao has no knowledge of himself in the future, and no one in the world knows you'?"

Lin Yinping glanced him up and down, and asked very seriously: "Then how many confidants do you want?"

Xiao Yu, who smelled a hint of unusual meaning, coughed dryly, and sat down in a precarious position: "Your Highness is serious, how dare Xiao Yu have such a thought." ”

Lin Yinping glanced at Xiao Yu, who pretended to be a more upright gentleman than Hui Yanagishita, and said with a smile: "If you let the group of Taiji outside see the current appearance of the big horses, I don't know how they will feel." ”

Regarding Lin Yinping's joke, Xiao Yu just laughed, after all, it was just a private conversation between the ** room, and it could be regarded as a hundred taboos.

After talking to Lin Yinping for a while, Xiao Yu got up and left. After all, if he wants to integrate the royal court and even the grassland in such a short period of time, Xiao Yu has a lot to do. He didn't have much time to take care of his own personal affairs.

Integrate the grassland to be both graceful and powerful, and now he has killed enough people, from cleaning the royal court to sending people to execute twenty-three Taiji, Xiao Yu has been overriding the grassland with a resolute and indifferent attitude, Ci is not in charge of the army, there are no good people on the grassland, if he is not ruthless enough, how can he drive this group of steppe wolves?

Now Xiao Yu estimates that Liwei has almost set up, and if he cleans it again, I'm afraid it will backfire, and it's time to give a few sweet dates.

It's a pity that Lan Yu is not there. Xiao Yu sighed in his heart, if this young pavilion master of Tianji Pavilion was still here, it would be better to leave this kind of thing to him. Thinking of this, Xiao Yu couldn't help but laugh at himself, Lan Yu's identity is enjoying a splendid life in Dongdu, why take such a big risk to do things for himself, he is really greedy and insufficient, but fortunately, there is also a Bonu.

......

In the evening, Bonu returned from the palace in the north of the town.

When Bonu's son, who was close to the age of six, heard the news that the lord's carriage had arrived at the entrance of the alley, he hurried out of the main hall and came to the door, just as Bonu's carriage had just heard about it. Cabo came to the carriage and gestured to help his father, who had gotten out of the carriage.

But he didn't expect Bonu to really wave away the two beautiful maids who had served him all the year round, and Kabo helped him get out of the carriage. ”

The father and son entered the main hall of the mansion, and retreated, Bonu leaned back in his chair, still holding a red sandalwood cane in his hand, his eyes narrowed, and he was calm, but Cabo was a little impatient.

Bonu glared at him, "After so many years, I am still so impetuous, how did I tell you in the past? ”

Kabo smiled and didn't speak.

After Bonu finished teaching his son, he took a moment of respite and continued unhurriedly: "It is a great thing that the colt has summoned me this time, and I ask you, what do you think it will be a happy event?"

After all, Cabo was about to be sixty years old, and if it weren't for the pressure of Bonu above, he would be the head of the family, and after thinking about it for a long time, he said, "Didn't the colt give one of the seats on the left and right to my father?"

Bonu laughed: "Yes, today the horse leaked to me, and I will be canonized as the left minister of the royal court in the near future, if it is placed in the Central Plains, this is equivalent to the head of the cabinet and the head of the civil officials." ”

Although Kabo had some guesses, he couldn't help but be surprised when he heard his father admit it himself, "We don't expect the right prime minister, after all, the right minister wants to take charge of the military, and it will not fall on Huang Hanji's head, but on Shen Dongzan's head, and it is a great blessing that my father can win the left minister." ”

Bonu had a smile on his face, "After all, we are old ministers, and in the end, we still have to hold on to the tree of the horse, which is not as good as Huang Hanji and Shin Dongzan, but you are wrong about one thing, the right minister will never give either of them either." ”

Kabo was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "What my father said is that if you give one of the two, you can't appease the other, so it's better to give it at all." ”

Bonu nodded at his feet with his cane and said, "This is just one of them, don't forget that we only have 150,000 soldiers who can fight now, and the horses, Shen Dongzan, and Huang Hanji are all one-thirds, how can the horses give up the position of the right minister to those two?"

Kabo was startled, restrained his smile, and said in a deep voice: "In this way, isn't my father pushed to the forefront by the horse?"

Bonu smiled faintly, "How can there be a grace in the world for no reason, the reason why the colt keeps us and puts us in a high position is to use us, if we are not useful, what is the use of him keeping us?"

Saying that, Bonu pointed to the snow outside the house with his cane, "There are gains and losses, just like this snow, the Central Plains people have a saying called Ruixue Zhaofeng year, it can be seen that heavy snow is a good thing, but if the snow is too big, it will also crush people." It is true that I am standing on the cusp of the storm when I become the left minister, but those pastures and slaves who have no masters still don't want to see me as the left minister? Don't worry, how can I also go through three great khans as a father, and I have never seen any storms and waves? I am not so easy to drown. ”
