Meanwhile.

Although Shen Chen was depressed, he still sent the two of them to a private school after Dabao and Erbao had breakfast, and then he wanted to go back to Lin Xi as soon as possible.

But what I didn't expect was that he was cut off by the two masters halfway.

Shen Chen had to go with the little maid to meet the two masters instead, and when they arrived, the two masters were sitting and talking in the courtyard.

Seeing him coming, Li Fuzi directly pointed to the letter on the table, and said straight to the point: "The letter sent by Jiangyou's Yang family, take a look." ”

Hearing this, Shen Chen walked over with patience, picked up the letter, opened it, and hurriedly browsed it.

Chen Fuzi said: "After all, it is taboo to move troops without an edict, so nearly half of the Jiangyou Army that supported Jinling this time was actually from the Yang family's private army. But when Yang Shizhong reported it, he didn't report his part of the private army, so he wrote to inform us, asking us to hide it from us and not say anything. ”

Shen Chen said: "Accept people's favors and do their work, you should." ”

Master Chen nodded, "It's good that you know it in your heart." ”

Shen Chen put down the letter and said, "However, there are tens of thousands of Qin soldiers who came to support, but half of them are the Yang family's private army. It is impossible for the Yang family to send out all the private troops, which shows that the Yang family's private army is far more than tens of thousands. ”

Li Fuzi stroked his beard and said meaningfully: "For the clan, such a private army is indeed too much, enough to make the saint feel threatened. If not, why do you think he wrote to him? ”

Shen Chen said: "That's not what the Yang family is worried about. ”

Li Fuzi raised his eyebrows slightly: "How can you see it?" ”

Shen Chen said lightly: "The four major clans of Great Qin have their own special characteristics, so they have Taizu's permission to leave their private army. ”

Among them, the Jinling Yi family is because its old lady is the old Chu royal family, in order to appease the remaining Chu people, and the Yi family's private army. But now, most of the Chu people are gone, and with the governance of Taizu and the emperor, the distinction between Qin and Chu is becoming more and more thin, and the world knows the Great Qin, and no longer knows the old Chu. ”

"In this case, the Yi family retains a private army, which is easy to provoke the suspicion of the saint. Yi Hong is not stupid, so he simply handed over all the private troops to me at this juncture. If it were only for his son's token, he would have given me half of his private army. Now although I have agreed to him, the details of the Yi family will not flow out of me, but it is difficult to guarantee that the emperor does not know. Because Yi Hong was originally the emperor's person. ”

Li Fuzi then said: "Therefore, the Yi family is innocent in the eyes of today's saints. Even the old lady of the Yi family will not live long, and in the future, the saint will be more assured to use the Yi family, and the Yi family will not fade for at least a hundred years. ”

Chen Fuzi shook his head and sighed: "The Jinling Rebellion is the rebellion of the rebel party, and the beginning of the rebellion of the Yi clan. With the Yi family's whitewashing first, if the other clans continue according to the current situation, it is very likely that they will also be targeted by the saints. ”

Shen Chen hummed in agreement.

He knew better than anyone that the emperor was an ambitious man.

Not to mention, the Xuanwumen Palace Revolution left a deep impact on the emperor, making the emperor even more ambitious than Taizu, and making it even more intolerant of courtiers forming parties and dividing power between clans.

I haven't moved those now, it's because the timing is not right.

But as long as the north and south borders are stable and there is no external trouble for the time being, the emperor will deal with it.

Yi Hong followed the emperor and had already figured out the emperor's intentions, so he took advantage of the Jinling incident to take out the Yi family.

The other clans are not stupid, and they have their own news channels, so they must have guessed the point, so the Yang family doesn't want the emperor to know that they have too many private troops at this time.

Chen Fuzi said at this time: "Shen Chen, your people, and Ling Jun, they ......"

Shen Chen was succinct and to the point: "They know what to say. ”

Li Fuzi put down his snacks and said, "Even so, you should warn them when you go back, don't let them get into trouble." ”

Shen Chen nodded, and when he saw that there was nothing to do, he said goodbye and left.

After going back, Shen Chen first met Wang Shou and the three who came back from going out, so he said: "You came just in time, I have something to tell you." This Jinling incident has passed, and the relevant details, especially Jiang Youjun, are all rotten to the stomach, don't mention it to others. ”

Yan Zhong should give up, and Wang Shoudao: "Brother Shen, don't worry, we will save it." ”

The envoys from the imperial court came to Jinling to discuss meritorious deeds, but when they were not mentioned, they understood. It must be that they are involved in something very significant and subtle, so it is better for them not to appear in the eyes of others.

Shen Chen left after telling him.

Du couldn't help but watch him walk away, and raised his hand to gesture a few times.

Wang Shou said unexpectedly: "You said that Master Yi had approached you privately and wanted you to return to the military department?" ”

Du couldn't help but nodded, and gestured again: "I guess, Master Yi should also report me to the saint." ”

Yan Zhong was a little anxious: "Then what should I do?" Why don't you go to Brother Shen and talk to him? He hasn't gone far yet, so I'll go ......."

Du couldn't help but hurriedly grabbed Yan Zhong.

Yan Zhong was puzzled, Wang Shou understood after thinking about it: "I can't help but mean, Brother Shen must know." Do you think, because his identity is so special, so many people in Jinling have seen him, can he still hide it? But since Lord Yi couldn't help but look for it in private, it shows that the court has no intention of going back. ”

Du couldn't help but nodded.

Yan Zhong breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good." ”

……

On the other side, when Shen Chen found Lin Xi, she and Jiang Wei were talking about making new clothes for the children.

A few of the children are growing up too fast, and last year's clothes are already a little out of shape. Needless to say, by the end of the year, it will definitely grow a lot, at least the winter coat must be made new.

As soon as Lin Xi finished measuring the three treasures and the four treasures, he saw Shen Chen coming.

Jiang Wei smiled and said, "My father sent someone to bring me some things to enjoy, and I will take the three and four treasures to see." ”

Sibao also wanted to be with Lin Xi, but was given a look by Sanbao and obediently followed Jiang Yuan.

Shen Chen's expression eased a little, raised his feet into the house, and shouted, "Lady." ”

Lin Xi said to him angrily, "Come here and stand still, don't move." ”

Shen Chen went over as he said.

Lin Xi asked him to open his hand and measure him, "I'm just going to make new clothes, so I'll do it with you." The few pieces you wore to Jinling have worn out, and they don't look good to make up, and I don't know what you do all day long. ”

Shen Chen said in a low voice: "Sleeping in the open air, covering the sky and the ground, running around, trekking through mountains and rivers. ”

Lin Xi raised his head and glared at him: "Come less, you are so important, even if the people who follow you only have one tent, they will give it to you." I'm telling you, I'm smart now, and you can't fool me......"

Before he finished speaking, he was hugged into his arms by Shen Chen.

Lin Xi struggled and didn't break away, so he simply hugged him.

Shen Chen's voice was gentle: "If the lady doesn't feel sorry for me, my bitter trick won't work." ”

Lin Xi snorted, the corners of his mouth also rose, and said, "If you do it again in the future, I won't feel sorry for you." ”
