Bai Guo said: "After we go, protect those people first and don't alert others."
The two people in the palace have not been rescued yet, so they are holding back for now.
Bai Guo turned around and confirmed with Pang Yang, "Brother Pang Yang, how long will it take?"
"About three months." Pang Yang counted the time, "Heavily armored soldiers occupy the city faster, but the march is too slow. The other generals do not occupy the city as fast, but the march is fast."
Bai Guo nodded, "I will let them suppress the news of General Lin Huan's survival."
…
The residence of General Yan's family in Kyoto was peaceful and peaceful compared with the tense situation on the front line.
Mrs. Yan knelt down under the ancestral hall and kowtowed, then she held up the three pillars of incense in her hand. She circled the incense and saw that this huge house was filled with dark tablets from the lowest to the upper floors!
At a glance, I don't know where the end is.
Mrs. Yan's eyes swept over layer by layer and stood there for a long time.
Yan Ren knelt at the door of the ancestral hall. When he couldn't hear the movement inside, he looked up and saw this scene.
Heavy and depressing.
Yan Ren pursed his lips tightly.
How much the outside world admires Ni Dairou for daring to take a small family to the battlefield, he knows how uncomfortable his mother is now.
Once upon a time, Ni Dairou was just a small general. No matter how popular he was on the battlefield, he could not overwhelm the Yan family, nor could it overwhelm the Yan family's only remaining daughter, Lang.
But now, everyone in the Bai family and Ni family often praises them, but who can think of the Yan family that protected thousands of people a few years ago?
Who remembered the declining Yan family again?
Yan Ren looked at the figure that had stood still for a long time and lowered his head.
It's his fault.
If he had worked harder in the military camp and worked harder on the battlefield over the years, that little servant would not have been so prosperous, nor would the current Yan family be so miserable.
But now...
How can he, who is useless in Beijing, reverse the current situation?
"The fight between Prince Li and Prince Gong has ended in defeat for both sides." Madam Yan's sudden voice made Yan Ren look back.
"It's ridiculous that those people wanted Prince Gong to train the prince before." Madam Yan's words suddenly became sarcastic, "With this strength, no wonder the prince never took action."
The intrigues above the court are far greater than those in other places. Many times the other party's eyes are full of sincerity, but what he does is end in the destruction of all nine clans.
You can't survive in court without some means.
Therefore, Prince Gong never listened to those people's advice and confronted the prince because he was careful enough.
Therefore, the prince has never targeted Prince Gong, because this small strength does not pose a threat to him, and may even cause the emperor's displeasure after practicing.
The two parties had seemingly been at peace with each other for many years, until the current Prince Gong was noticed by the courtiers in the court and led to confront Prince Li.
"The prince is still upright and harmonious to his brothers in front of the emperor, but Prince Gong was defeated first, and Prince Li was also deposed." Madam Yan's eyes did not move away from the tablets, "The news in Kyoto that the emperor's health is deteriorating has not stopped. King Dingxi was afraid that the emperor was clearing the way for the prince to shed some skin, so he took advantage of the war in Sha Kingdom to leave Kyoto in embarrassment."
Yan Ren's expression suddenly became strange when he heard this.
"But tell me, how did a little servant's son avoid these rumors and intrigues in the court without support? How could he leave just before the capital was unstable to protect himself from being Involved?" Madam Yan looked at Yan Ren who was kneeling outside. Seeing his shocked and hesitant expression, she even felt ridiculed, "I have wasted my vigilance and intelligence all my life, why did I..."
The following words were not spoken in the ancestral hall. Mrs. Yan took a breath and said, "You think he is stupid, but when have you ever seen him suffer a loss? Which of you has taken advantage of him? Do you think he ignores trivial matters? I only care about the Bai family, but when have you ever seen him really do anything? Are there any rumors coming out of Kyoto?"
"He is taking advantage of Princess Kangle?!" Yan Ren suddenly asked, while thinking of Pang Yang who never left the figure in front of him on the Yifeng Grassland.
Mrs. Yan's patience was clearly showing off, "He is the same type as Prince Gong. He is overly cautious. If he values something, he is even more cautious and cautious. Even if others can catch a glimpse of it, they won't be able to catch it." He’s not wrong at all!”
Yan Ren thought of the unchanging eyes of the other party when he first scolded the shameless person, and he understood something in an instant.
"But this kind of person will always be exposed after being suppressed for a long time. At this time, all the weaknesses and shortcomings are exposed in front of the world, and it is easy to control him."
Yan Ren nodded first, and then suddenly opened his eyes during Mrs. Yan's pause.
Madam Yan looked at Yan Ren who noticed something, and said bluntly: "Prince Gong and Prince Li have lost their strength in the first battle. King Dingxi fled Kyoto to preserve his strength in the first battle, but he is obviously not prepared to participate in this fight. The Ninth Prince, The tenth prince's mother's family is not visible, and the thirteenth prince seems to have some influence, but without the help of his mother's family, once the new emperor ascends to power, he will be in a state of decline, not as bad as Prince Li... In this way, it is certain that the crown prince will ascend to the throne."
"But what can our Yan family gain if he takes over?" Mrs. Yan's mouth was full of self-mockery, "Our Yan family may not be as good as the Bai family by then!"
Yan Ren's pupils trembled even more fiercely!
At this moment, Mrs. Yan was staring closely into Yan Ren's eyes, not allowing him to have the slightest intention of retreating, "What do you think our Yan family should do?"
Yan Ren retreated on his knees, cold sweat dripping down his face, "Mother! This is forced labor! Forced labor!"
Mrs. Yan slowly leaned over, staring directly at Yan Ren, "Can't our Yan family force the palace?!"
Yan Ren shook his head repeatedly, "But...but..."
What Bai Guo said that day in the Bajiao Pavilion in Fengzhou was still ringing in his ears. Yan Ren added the words in the most affirmative tone, "But the Emperor has already noticed it!"
Mrs. Yan straightened up as if she had heard some joke, "Aware? How could our Yan family not be noticed that they have the intention of forcing a baby?! But is it useful? What can he do after so many years!"
Mrs. Yan looked down at Yan Ren and said, "You can still live well now because of your ancestors, not his Xuan family!"
Yan Ren's pupils dilated!
Madam Yan frowned at Yan Ren's performance, and her expression turned disgusting. Before she could say anything, she heard footsteps approaching from far away. Madam Yan knew who it was without raising her head.
The man in white first bowed to Mrs. Yan and then said, "Madam, it's my fault that Ren'er doesn't understand this. I'll take him down to enlighten him."
Madam Yan didn't seem to want to look at the man in white any longer, and she waved her hand to get out of here without saying anything.
The man in white saluted again, then pulled Yan Ren up from the ground and took two steps back to leave.
On the way, Yan Ren, who was freed from Mrs. Yan's influence, finally came back to his senses. When he turned to look at the man in white who was pulling him along, he suddenly stopped in his steps, and then angrily shook off the man in white's arm, "Dad...you too Know?!"
The man in white calmly retracted his hand, but the words he said with gentleness were completely different, "Your mother and I are one, how could you not know."
Yan Ren wanted to get angry, but thinking of the servants around him, he suppressed his words and asked in a low voice: "Why didn't you tell me?"
"What can I do if I tell you." The man in white gestured slightly, and countless servants around him bowed their heads and retreated, and a place where they could talk confidentially was instantly cleared.
"You're not capable enough... There's a huge gap." The man in white's words were clear and cold.
Yan Ren was stunned for a long time, and his eyes suddenly turned red while he was stunned, "There is still a long way to go... right?"
The man in white obviously didn't want to say anything more on this issue and said directly: "Go and approach Princess Kangle."
Yan Ren has never been so unwilling, "I want a woman to help me?!"
"What you are using is not Princess Kangle, but the amulet on her body, and the ability to command General Chizhong!"
The man in white looked at Yan Ren's bloodshot eyes and softened his tone, "Princess Kangle has two amulets on her body. One is the emperor's special love for her, and the other is the now famous General Chi Zhong."
"You don't need to do anything, and you don't need to marry her. You just need to let her care about you. As long as she cares about you, you can do it even if you don't want to use her to control General Chizhong. As long as she stands by your side, the Emperor I can't attack you. With this layer of protection, you can improve your strength and power." The man in white said straightforwardly, "When she is no longer needed, your mother will come forward to stop her from pestering you."
Yan Ren listened to what the man in white said, looked at the man in white and asked, "What if I want to use her to control Pang Yang?"
The man in white softened his expression slightly, "Princess Kangle is very close to General Chizhong. It's not easy to provoke them. The easiest way is to use General Chizhong's invisibility to threaten him, but his presence will definitely affect you. Regarding the progress with Princess Kangle, you might as well use this matter to make Princess Kangle understand his character and stay away from him. At this time, you are approaching..."
"In dad's eyes, is this all I can do?!" The painful question made the man in white stop talking. He looked at Yan Ren, who was all stubborn and wanted to ask for a word. He paused for a while and said, "Can you It’s a lot to do, but we gave you time, did you do it?”
One sentence destroyed all Yan Ren's pride and confidence, and he was like a defeated army with no intention of resisting anymore.
"Give you a month. After one month, your mother will go to the palace and ask the emperor to let you go to the battlefield." The man in white saw Yan Ren's collapse, but did not offer any words of comfort. He saw his book boy in the distance anxiously going here. While watching, he motioned for the other person to come over.
The book boy hurriedly approached, "Prince Li's people are here again."
The man in white was not surprised. He nodded and looked at Yan Ren and said, "I will stabilize Prince Gong and Prince Li's people... Remember, this month is not the time for you to think about it."
The influence in the hands of the Yan family can still be used, and it is also considered by many parties. At first they took the initiative to contact King Li to hint, but now people from King Li can't sit still and come frequently to try to use this power in their hands. .
However, if you lose, you will lose. Those who lose have no value to them!
…
In Shuangtian City, Baiguo stayed here for just a few days. At the beginning of May, the 300,000-strong army and the previous soldiers were led by King Dingxi across the border and into the territory of the Kingdom of Sha. The war continued!
Ni Dairou, Bai Yutang and their four sons arrived at the city where Bai Guo was on the same day as Ni Zhiyong, Ni Cheng and Ni Yu.
