(Forty-four)
"My wife, I really hope that Lihua can be like other girls and avoid the pain of being displaced from their homeland, so that we don't have to live in fear for those few years as a couple."
"But if His Majesty needs Li to serve the country, I will never say anything."
The eyes filled with bright tears were full of determination.
But the more this happens, the more unbearable it becomes.
The children of the Dugu family have never mastered more than power and house fighting.
Yu Wenyong:!?(??_??;?
Dugu Jialuo has already said all the nice things, so why bother asking him?
Yu Wenyong deeply felt that his imperial self-cultivation was still not enough, and he actually felt a little tight in the chest and short of breath.
But facing the tearful Dugu Jialuo, his first thought was to reach out and wipe away the tears hanging in the corners of her eyes.
Dugu Jialuo was also his admirer when he was young.
Alas, there is no hope!
If Sun Ge were here, I'm afraid he would have to say something about love.
Come here and take us to dig wild vegetables.
Yu Wenyong sighed silently and hurriedly said, "I and the wise couple are both monarchs and ministers, and close friends. I have always regarded Lihua as my own daughter, and I have been waiting for Lihua and the queen to marry Yun'er."
"How can I be willing to let Lihua marry far away!"
He can also say sensational and beautiful words.
What is discussion must be to meet their respective needs.
Yang Jian has the talent of a general, and the concessions and sacrifices he made cannot be meaningless.
Friendship is friendship, calculation is calculation.
"It's just that the Northern Zhou Dynasty is weak, and the Northern Qi Dynasty is eyeing it. It's hard for me to sleep and eat well."
Having said this, Yu Wenyong turned his attention to Yang Jian.
Yang Jian understood this and responded, "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the army to guard the border. If I are here, the Northern Qi army will not be allowed to set foot in our great Zhou Dynasty."
Power changes people, and the longer they are in power, the more complete the changes.
Your Majesty is no longer the man who looked up to others, was cautious, but had a jade pot and an ice-cold heart.
This power is really tempting.
Yang Jian lowered his head, with an unknown light hidden deep in his eyes.
he……
He didn't want to be inferior to others.
In troubled times, the right way is to replace it.
Yu Wenyong was overjoyed. There was Gao Changgong in the Northern Qi Dynasty and Yang Jian in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
Yang stayed on the sidelines, which could finally give him a chance to breathe.
"It's bitterly cold on the border, please, my dear."
"In the capital, I will protect the young and old of the Yang family from any injustice."
The implication is that you can guard the border, but your wife and children must stay.
His name is Zhaofu, but he is actually a hostage.
Both sides knew this, but no one would expose it.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
Yang Jian's face remained unchanged and he expressed his gratitude calmly.
After Yang Jian and his wife left, Yu Wenyong played with his credentials with a complicated expression.
Yang Jian is not a thing in the pond.
He is here as his loyal right-hand man to conquer cities and territories for him.
But what if he dies?
Can Yun'er really convince Yang Jian and make him use him?
Yuwen Yong no longer felt happy and was worried.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report." Wang Gui, the internal historian, who was urgently summoned to the capital and hid behind a screen, said in a deep voice.
Wang Gui was a close minister of Emperor Wu of Zhou. When Yu Wenyong was still the Duke of Fucheng, he served at his side.
"speak."
Yu Wenyong raised his hand to indicate that Wang Gui did not need to salute.
Wang Gui is a true confidant to him.
Wang Gui's hand on his side clenched slightly, feeling quite uneasy. He said for a long time, "The Crown Prince Yun will not be the master of the country in the future, and Pu Liuru's appearance is different."
Pu Liu Ru Jian refers to Yang Jian.
The Crown Prince Yu Wenyong lacks benevolence and filial piety and has little virtue.
How can such a person afford such a large family fortune if he is thin and lacks ability.
Your Majesty is wise and mighty, but it is a pity that his descendants are dim.
Yu Wenyong, who was already unhappy, became even more angry when he heard this and blurted out, "The emperor has his own destiny, what can others do?"
It's not so much displeasure as it is irritation at being poked into the center of things.
Wang Gui had served him for many years, and he understood him best.
He is upright by nature, strong in dealing with situations, and has unparalleled loyalty. He will never act for selfish reasons.
"Your Majesty, calm down."
Wang Gui knelt on the ground with a plop, but still did not change his words.
He has received great favor from His Majesty and should serve him with his own life.
Yu Wenyong stared at Wang Gui with burning eyes and did not speak for a long time.
After a long while, he breathed a long sigh of relief and said in a hard voice, "Are you trying to persuade me to save money?"
"How can the crown prince of a country be replaced so easily?"
Yu Wenyong's voice was full of powerlessness, and upon listening carefully, there was also dejection and envy.
The eldest son was useless, the second son was sparse and ordinary, and the other sons were young, so he never had a choice.
I don’t know what kind of incense was burned on the ancestral grave of Gao Zhan, but he was able to raise a successor with such amazing talent, vision, courage, and skill as Gao Zhan.
No, it's not education, Gao Zhan doesn't have that kind of ability.
The Gao family has a lot of troubles that are even worse than the Yuwen family. To expect Gao Zhan to raise his son would be a genius descended from heaven.
Bah, Gao Zhan is just a piece of shit trying to steal his queen.
There is also Gao Changgong, who is loyal to Gao Wei. He can't make Gao Changgong switch sides even if he promises huge profits.
Oh, is it possible that Gao Wei saved Gao Changgong's life?
"Wang Gui, as you just said, don't talk to outsiders."
"One day, Yun'er will still need your help."
He never knew that Yang Jian was by no means a person who had lived under others for a long time, but the current Northern Zhou Dynasty could not allow him to attack the aristocratic families who once followed him.
Wang Gui was speechless, smiled bitterly, and said no more.
Yang Jian and his wife, who left the palace together, were also thinking a lot.
"Gaara, this is the best result."
Yang Jian held Dugu Jialuo's hand tightly and said steadily.
If Lihua is allowed to marry far away from Northern Qi, her future will truly be bleak.
Dugu Jialuo was worried. She didn't know that this was the best choice at the moment. Unfortunately, facing Beiqi and the invincible Gao Changgong, could her husband continue to live up to his past legend?
Worry spreads in my heart little by little...
…
"Cousin, it's up to you next."
"There are few people in the court and there is a female prime minister, so don't worry about the rear."
"The Empress Dowager has also sent a letter to the Ashina Royal Court, so before Yang Jian arrives, we should use lightning speed to capture the two cities adjacent to the Northern Qi territory."
Yu Wenyong wanted time to take a breath, but she chose to fight quickly.
As for Yu Wenyong's attitude towards what she asked for, it is actually not difficult to guess.
Yu Wenyong would not agree to it, whether it was public or private.
Therefore, it is better to attack the two cities first by surprise.
Well, she is just the sixth child who specializes in yin people, so don't mention Song Xiang's formula of "no drums, no rows" to her.
She is not that kind and righteous, and she is not that polite.
"I will live up to His Majesty's expectations."
A general who has been on the battlefield for a long time and is used to seeing blood and bones in the wind and sand will not like war, but he will never be afraid.
The world has been in chaos for too long. Your Majesty needs a great cause, and the people also need unity.
