"Being an emperor requires using your brain. What does it matter if your legs are disabled? The reason why the emperor does not like King Jiangdong is because he was brought up by the Queen Mother since he was a child. He is the Queen Mother's favorite grandson. The influence of the foreign relatives is very huge, and the emperor is deeply afraid of this, so..." Chen Jisheng couldn't speak frankly.
"Why am I so complicated?" Xiao Chen's head was spinning.
"It's not complicated. Since ancient times, it's not uncommon for relatives to seize power or even seize the throne. Can the emperor not care about it? It's just that the Queen Mother is his biological mother. No matter how ruthless he is, he can't do anything to the Queen Mother. Besides, the Queen Mother's nephews now They are all outside leading the army, and the emperor does not dare to act rashly." Chen Jisheng said.
"I'm just wondering, the Queen Mother is an old monster... She is the emperor's own mother. Why doesn't she protect her son's interests, but insists on cultivating the power of her mother's family, going against her own son, and giving her Where is my son causing trouble?" Xiao Chen said he couldn't figure it out.
If it were my mother, she would definitely not do this!
Neither my mother in my previous life nor my current mother could do it!
"Do you want to know? Just ask the Queen Mother directly." Chen Jisheng would also tease.
"Bah! Can you, old man, have a good chat?" Xiao Chen said angrily.
"I don't want to talk to you about this, let's talk about yourself! You can't even protect yourself, but you are still so curious?" Chen Jisheng's words don't make sense anymore. You yourself have talked so much...
"I have thought that the emperor might want to get rid of me, but I always feel that he will not kill me blatantly..." Xiao Chen said.
"That's not true, but if he wants you to die, there are many ways to do it, such as letting you go to a place on errands, sending assassins to kill you on the way, and then just frame it on the Tianxuan Society." Chen Jisheng didn't do this. Kind of conspiracy, but that doesn't mean he can't.
"Hehe, it's not that easy to assassinate the young master." Xiao Chen himself has excellent martial arts skills. In addition, he has his younger brother Xiao Ye by his side, and now he has a little princess girl who is cheating with Qinggong. Man, but there is no way he can be killed.
Are you bragging by killing them every minute?
"What did the emperor tell you at that time? Please tell me in detail. It's best not to miss a word." Chen Jisheng said.
Xiao Chen thought about it and Li Wanjiang didn't seem to say anything, just a few words...
He praised me for my ability, scolded me for my nonsense, praised me for being able to lead troops to fight, but blamed me for deploying troops privately. Anyway, he had to let him say all the good things! There are both slaps and sweet dates.
"Did he say you knew how to lead troops?" Chen Jisheng frowned.
"Yes, he said that I know military skills, so that's why he wanted to send me on a foreign mission. Isn't the supervisor of the army a consultant in war? With my military talents, coupled with Mr. Murong, wouldn't I be invincible in the world? Haha? Haha..." Xiao Chen is still thinking about Luomapo.
"Huh, what do you know about fighting? Is leading hundreds of soldiers to wipe out a few bandits the same thing as commanding thousands of troops!" Chen Jisheng will destroy Xiao Chen's happiness anytime and anywhere.
"You, a civil servant, don't know how to fight, okay?" Xiao Chen was very unhappy.
"The war in Northern Xinjiang is tense..." Chen Jisheng suddenly said.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Chenxin said, what are you talking about, old man?
"Didn't you defeat Mojie's five cities at the Lantern Festival? Do you think those five cities are so easy to get? Those five cities were originally the territory of the Xianbo tribe and were forcibly occupied by Mojie, but the occupation Later, I found that those five cities were just useless, tasteless to eat, and a pity to abandon, so I used them as bets..."
After the Mojie Kingdom handed over the five cities, Li Wanjiang ignored all opinions and sent officials and some troops to accept them. Unexpectedly, the Xianbo tribe's troops occupied them first, and the acceptors were unable to enter the city at all!
Li Wanjiang originally had many troops stationed in northern Xinjiang, but due to frequent domestic wars, he had to transfer tens of thousands of his elite troops back to quell the chaos.
Now the defense in northern Xinjiang is relatively empty, with probably only tens of thousands of people, and it is impossible to divide the troops to fight against the capable cavalry of the Xianbo tribe.
Seeing that Zhou Dynasty did not fight back, the Xianbo tribe became even more aggressive. Not only did they occupy those five cities, but they also took advantage of the situation to occupy several other important towns in Beiyuan...
This time King Fengyang returned with his troops, and it was estimated that they would be sent to northern Xinjiang after a period of rest. However, the army had been on campaign for several months and suffered many losses. Coupled with the fatigue of the journey, I am afraid that it would have to rest for at least a year and a half.
It will also take at least a year to prepare the logistics such as food, grass, weapons, chariots and horses.
Li Wanjiang probably won't wait that long, and will definitely send troops there first, but he has no troops to send...
"What do you mean your old man has been talking about for a long time?" Xiao Chen was confused.
"If the emperor asks you to lead troops to fight in northern Xinjiang, will you go?" Chen Jisheng said.
"What the hell, I don't know how to lead troops in a war. Besides, didn't you tell me you don't have any troops?" Xiao Chen was surprised, how could this be possible?
"You know how to lead troops to fight?" Chen Jisheng sneered and slapped Xiao Chen in the face first, "If you don't have soldiers, you can recruit them. You can even recruit them."
"Anyway, I think it's unlikely." Xiao Chen said.
"It's unlikely, but it's possible." Chen Jisheng sighed, "No matter what, you should be mentally prepared first."
"What are you preparing for? Prepare to die!" Xiao Chen said angrily.
"Well, if that's the case, don't we have to prepare for the funeral?" Chen Jisheng stood up and stretched his muscles, "Why are you afraid? I'm not afraid. It's not a bad ending for you to be shrouded in horse leather with this old skeleton. "
"What are you thinking about, you old man? Even if you really let me go, I won't bring you with me as a burden!" Xiao Chen said loudly.
"If you go there, you will die. Why do you want me, a white-haired person, to give you a black-haired person?" Chen Jisheng showed a trace of sadness on his face.
"I'll send you away first!" Xiao Chen said.
"Then the day you go to war will be the day when I kill myself." Chen Jisheng said calmly.
"You are sick, stubborn old man!" Xiao Chen said angrily.
"Have you forgotten that I am your butler? Your master is dead, but can I, my servant, survive?" Chen Jisheng laughed.
"Servant of the housekeeper? Do you feel guilty for saying this? You are simply my ancestor!" Xiao Chen said angrily.
"This is just a casual chat between the two of us. It may not be the case, but we should be prepared for danger in times of peace and be prepared for a rainy day. No matter what, we should make preparations first." Chen Jisheng said.
"Then I'll order two coffins first. What material do you like?" Xiao Chen said.
"I'll treat you like a worthless boy! Even though I'm an old man, I want to fight for it. How can you be so useless at such a young age? Even if we die, we have to die heroically. I told you The body is wrapped in horse leather, what kind of coffin do you want?" Chen Jisheng hated him for not fighting.
The two had a disagreement and quarreled again. A boy suddenly came to report that someone was outside asking to see him, and he seemed to be a high-ranking official...
How big an official is he?
Could it be that I am older than the young master?
