The candlelight jumped at night, and the father and son of the Yue family talked with Yue Xuan at night, and Yue Jiang's already old face was even more gloomy.

"The emperor openly deprived the military power and rewarded him for his false duties, isn't it just to inform the world that the Yue family has fallen out of favor?" Yue Crepe was anxious and hammered the table hard.

"Generally, when the generals return to Beijing, there will be a banquet in the palace." Yue Jiang sighed: "Now they only reward us, so how can those soldiers who fought bloodily be good, it is a small matter without military power, and those elite soldiers can also find an official and a half-position in the palace, but those who are old, weak, sick and disabled, some of them have no home or relatives, how will the emperor arrange them." ”

"How much did our Yue family sacrifice for the Li country, and what did we get in exchange?"

Yue Xuan gritted his teeth: "Xingzhi's leg is injured, if it weren't for the emperor's order to let us transfer the main force of the army to South Vietnam, how could this kind of thing happen, I thought there was something strange before, and now I am even more sure that someone must be deliberately trying to bring down our Yue family." ”

Yue Xun saw that Yue Xun only listened quietly, without saying a word, his heart was impatient, and he shouted at him: "Okay, you have something to say!" ”

Yue Jiang also looked at Yue Xun, how did he feel that his son seemed to have changed a little compared to before, if it was before, he would definitely follow Yue Xun to the same enemy, and he talked endlessly, but now he is calm, his eyes are calm and unwavering, as if he has already mastered everything and has his own thoughts.

Facts have proved that Yue Xun does have his own ideas and opinions.

He spoke, his tone flat and gentle: "Although the military power has been withdrawn, he has no plans for the Xuanwu Army below me. ”

"It's all a matter of time, although the Xuanwu army is not many in number, but after all, they are all elites, how can Emperor Qi tolerate things that threaten him."

"That's why he won't use the Xuanwu Army." Yue Xun asked Yue Xun rhetorically: "Do you think that Li Guo is the only one who threatens him, our Yue family?" ”

Yue Xuan was angry on his head, and his brain was not easy to use, but Yue Jiang's eyes were very bright, he stroked his long beard and nodded: "Yes, there are indeed other people, like Wen Xiang, who are also a big threat." ”

"Wen Xiang and the three princes' ancestors and grandchildren formed a party in the court, and Concubine Wen was also smooth sailing in the harem. Wen Xiang is like an invisible blade, I don't know who his friends are, Emperor Qi will naturally be afraid. ”

Yue Jiang expressed his approval, and Yue Crepe also calmed down.

"But why did Emperor Qi only attack the Yue family, but Wen Xiang was like a fish in water." Yue Crepe then voiced her doubts.

Yue Xun disagreed: "Emperor Qi is not a person without means, the first emperor has many princes who have died and injured themselves, but this person who is the most inconspicuous on weekdays and has a low mother's position stands out, do you really think this is a coincidence?" ”

Yue Xun continued: "Besides, Emperor Qi also attacked Wen Xiang, but it is not obvious, Duan Shu is harmonious, the five princes are the crown princes, this is not to elevate the power of Empress Xue, Empress Xue and Concubine Wen are not in harmony, and the relationship between the three princes and the five princes is not much better, both of them have their own henchmen in the court, especially the emperor and the prince, I am afraid that the original position will change." ”

"I see, so what role does the Yue family play?" Yue Crepe asked.

"Big brother, don't forget, the internal worries are not over, it is not only the prince of the court who wants to be the emperor, but the king of Changshan County is eyeing the country and wants to change his surname." Yue Xun's tone did not rise, but his tone became stern: "Our emperor needs our sharp blade to balance many forces. ”

"In this way, it is worthy of Emperor Qi."

At the beginning, Emperor Qi, who was the twelfth prince, visited Yuefu many times to win over power. It's just that the Yue family didn't plan to participate in the seizure of the heir, and Emperor Qi was heavy-minded, and gloomy and cunning, and the Holy Emperor didn't like this son, but preferred the benevolent and loving prince, who knew that in the end the prince was assassinated, and the throne fell into his hands.

Yue Crepe asked worriedly, "Then what should we do now?" ”

Yue Xun replied calmly: "Supporting the six princes, although the Yue family has no precedent for standing in line, but now the situation is the best way." ”

"Okay, is this possible?" Yue Jiang said hesitantly: "Huo Yan, this child is something I grew up with, and his conduct is not bad, but sometimes he is too kind, I am afraid that one day, he will not be able to do it." ”

"You can't let him slaughter his siblings like Emperor Qi." Yue Xun paused and continued: "The third prince is ruthless, and the fifth prince is dull. Huo Yan is the most suitable for that position, and only by being benevolent can he see that he is a person who values feelings, and then the Yue family will be able to retreat with his whole body. ”

As long as he doesn't peep at his wife. Of course, Yue Xun just thought in his heart and didn't say it.

"What do you think, crepe?" Yue Crepe is the only son left by the eldest brother, and Yue Jiang has long treated him as his own son.

Yue Xun and Yue Crepe grew up together, and they were educated to be brothers and sisters since they were young, and they were also very close to Yue Crepe.

"I listen to my uncle and the one who does it." Yue Xianda believed from the bottom of his heart that the two of them, their parents were not there, and it was the second uncle's family who gave him everything, taught him to read and write, led him to march and fight, and pointed him out good family affairs.

"Okay, in that case, let's do it." Yue Jiang patted Yue Xun on the shoulder.

"Yes." Yue Xun replied with great firmness.

He shoulders the fate of the Yue family, and he must think twice before acting.

"Crepe, you go back and rest first, I have something to say to Xingzhi." Yue Jiang said to Yue Xuan.

Yue Crepe nodded: "Yes." ”

He knew that the second uncle would never hide anything from him, and he didn't care, he thought of his wife and daughter, and walked out of the courtyard by moonlight.

"Is your leg problem better?" Yue Jiang looked at his legs covered by the silver fox, and his heart was sour: "It's all my fault, I knew that there was something strange about that order, and I specially let you swap with Xuan'er." ”

Yue Xun looked at the white hair on his father's head, and smiled comfortingly: "The eldest brother is a family with us, whether it is the eldest brother or me, I will be forced to stay if we know that the result will be like this." Why should my father feel guilty, besides, ....... ”

Yue Xun tentatively raised his legs: "Isn't everything okay now?" ”

"This?!" Yue Jiang stepped forward and rubbed his eyes to look carefully, and asked in shock, "When did it happen?" ”

"Huo Yan asked the seniors of the Medicine Sect for help, and Rou Yun found a cure in an accidental needle." Yue Xun told the truth.

"Good, good." Yue Jiang's eyes were red and he asked: "Even so, why do you still rely on a wheelchair to walk, the people in the house don't seem to know." ”

Yue Xun moved his wheelchair forward and hesitated: "I want to ask my father to help me hide it, so that others don't know that I have recovered." ”

"Why is that?" Yue Jiang was puzzled: "Your grandmother and your mother worry every day, why don't you tell the truth and let them be relieved." ”

Yue Xun shook his head and patiently explained: "First of all, once the news goes out, Emperor Qi will definitely keep an eye on the Yue family even more, he doesn't want me to recover, the previous imperial doctor is the eyeliner he sent, and the entry of the medicine sect into the palace is also a secret matter, and the people in the outer courtyard don't know." Second, I also have selfish intentions, which is related to... It's about Rouyun..."

"By the way, your mother told me that it was true that you mentioned reconciliation and divorce to others?" Yue Jiang remembered his wife's complaint, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and continued: "Although I have never gotten along with Rou Yun, but your grandmother and mother are very satisfied with her, and I also met her during the banquet, she is a dignified housekeeper, what are your dissatisfaction with others, our Yue family has not yet set a precedent for reconciliation and separation, you won't make a first initiative for this, right?" ”

Yue Xun's face was a little embarrassed, but he still sincerely admitted his mistake: "It's my son's fault, my son was stupid and mentioned that foolish thing." ”

"So, you don't want to leave now?" It was rare for Yue Jiang to see his son admit his mistake, and he was a little surprised.

Yue Xun said with a difficult face: "Yes, I promised Rou Yun that after his leg is cured, he will reconcile with him, so I also ask my father to keep it a secret for me." ”

"I can help you hide it, but it's not a long-term solution, so it's better for you to plan ahead."

"My son understands, I will find a suitable time to inform everyone that General Huaiyuan has returned." Yue Xun raised his head, and his eyes were clear and bright.

"Good!" Yue Jiang stood up and patted Yue Xun on the shoulder: "This is the demeanor of the Yue family's men." ”

As if he remembered something, Yue Jiang walked into the back room and came out with a few bags of tight books.

"This is a war book?" Yue Xun didn't open it, guessing that it was the ancient book of war obtained when the materials were collected.

Yue Jiang's dark skin was red, and a dry cough made him open.

Yue Xun did so, it took some effort to unravel, the cover of the book did not have any inscription, it looked more mysterious, Yue Xun turned a page at will, but saw the picture of men and women acting on the top, Yue Xun snapped the book shut, Rao is Yue Xun such a calm person, and he is a little embarrassed at the moment.

"Father, this is?" Yue Xun felt that he was a little knowingly asked.

"Okay." Yue Jiang coughed a few times to relieve the embarrassment: "You are not too young, your mother is a woman, it's not good to say anything, I used to be busy marching and fighting, and I haven't taught you this, the Yue family has no precedent for acting before marriage, so you know less, but there are some things you still need to know." ”

"Father, did your mother call you?"

Yue Jiang's old face couldn't hold back, and he simply confessed: "Your mother has sent more than a dozen letters in a row, all of which are talking to you, if I don't tell you again, I'm afraid I will be muttered to death." ”

Yue Xun put the book away: "I'll go and read these." ”

"That's good, I was worried about your leg disease, I thought it would be better to slow down, if I let your mother know that you have recovered....." Yue Jiang felt terrible when he thought about it, and his wife couldn't persuade him to be stubborn.

Yue Xun remembered that he had drunk it for a long time, and the perfect tonic soup that his mother begged for was also a burst of rejection.

"But now that people want to reconcile with you, this matter is also in a hurry, you can't do anything to force people, otherwise I will be the first to spare you."

"Father, don't worry, where can I give up." Yue Xun thought of his wife, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

Seeing this, Yue Jiang waved his hand: "Okay, go back to your wife, don't offend people anymore, it's you who are wrong in this matter, you coax more, I'll help you hide it, if people still want to leave in the end, that's what you did, you just cry and go to you." ”

"I know, thank you, father." Yue Xun smiled bitterly, there is a long way to chase his wife, and he still needs to work hard.
