Chapter 579: The Snipe and the Clam Fight

Afterwards, Gu Shaoyu said calmly to Ni Yang.

"Keep an eye on Tan Jiping. He is much more useful than Lu Fushen and the Royal Army."

"Yes, General."

Afterwards, Gu Shaoyu gave a newly created talisman to Xing Zhao and said with a heavy tone.

"I've kept Luo Yuan's one. Yours is a newly made one. I'm relieved that the Guards handed it over to you. But today, I would like to take this opportunity to say to all the soldiers that every one of you lost today." A drop of sweat will turn into the blood of the enemy and a shield to protect you in the future, so practice hard, you know? "

"Yes, General!"

His words were like a heavy stone hitting a puddle, causing splashes of water. The soldiers all knew their mission, and they were more determined to continue working hard in the Tiger Army.

The position of the lieutenant general has been decided, and it needs to be reported to the court, so Gu Shaoyu wrote a memorial in the big tent, and beside it was a letter from home that was being dried, and he also wanted to send it back together.

It has been almost a year since he left. He naturally knows that everything is fine at home, but he will miss him anyway, so every time he writes a letter home, it is a thick pile, expressing his heart in detail. thoughts.

When Xing Zhao came in, he happened to see this scene.

He walked over and said.

"How about I write a few sentences and put them in my cousin's letter home and send them back? Mother and the others must be very busy. Hehe, I'm afraid they will be more motivated if they receive my letter."

Gu Shaoyu didn't even raise his head and replied directly.

"Your letter, I'm afraid my aunt will throw it away after just one glance. It's useless anyway. If you really want them to be motivated, you'd better have a child with Dr. Xia earlier. When the child comes out, you will step aside. Now, even if you stay in the army for three years and three years, I guarantee that my aunt will not even ask a question."

Xing Zhao held back his words. These words were exactly the same as what his mother said. He really cared about his family and was cruel and cruel!

The memorial and family letters headed towards Sui'an City together, and the clattering horse hooves ran along the official road, causing passers-by to avoid them.

The news was sent to Sui'an City, and Prime Minister Xing was relieved to see his nephew climbing so fast among the Tiger Army.

"Okay, since he has the ability, don't waste it. Send the order to Jinling City. Tell the third brother to come and serve as the Minister of War in Ancheng as soon as possible!"

"Yes, Prime Minister."

At the same time, the edicts distributed naturally included the fact that Yan Sanlang continued to stay in Quanzhou as the deputy general of the naval battalion, but only added a harmless position as deputy envoy of the Quanzhou City Defense Command Department.

It sounds like he has a heavy responsibility, but the city defense command department of Quanzhou City has always been a virtual structure, so it is useless to hold the position.

Originally, everyone thought that Saburo was going to be transferred back to Jinling City, and they were thinking about how to transfer him to Jeju, which was closer to Sui'an City. When they heard this transfer order, they were naturally angry.

In the Earl's Mansion, there was a sound of jumping and scolding at this moment.

"I knew that the Xing family was fighting against us to the death, and they dared to block Sanlang's future. This Prime Minister Xing was really good at planning. First, he arranged for his nephew to go to the Huben Army, and now he transferred his younger brother to serve as the Minister of War. After all this trouble, the Xing family wants to be civilized and military, and they are not afraid of taking a step too far and making His Majesty jealous and follow in the footsteps of the Guo family! "

Yan Hou cursed and his face turned red with anger.

The Yan family has always followed the prince since he gave birth to the prince. Over the years, the eldest son has become the minister of Zhongshu and is considered a wise man in the court. However, as Prime Minister Guo was suspected, their Yan family The family also lost some of its influence.

At this moment, the Minister Yan acted quite calmly.

"Father, don't be angry. Although the idea was made by Prime Minister Xing, there was also an assignment from His Majesty behind the scenes. The eldest prince and the third prince born by the Queen are all about to get married. If the mother clan's power is still strong, I'm afraid I am worried that I have followed the old path of the late emperor, so it is reasonable to be afraid.”

"Then the seventh prince's mother clan is so powerful now, why does he not suppress it but still indulges so much?"

"Father! How old is the seventh prince? Not to mention whether he is destined to grow up. Even if he grows up, it will take at least more than ten years before he can enter the court and govern. How much can your majesty take back through the Xing family? Right, when the time comes, it will be the Xing family who offends everyone. He will reap the benefits, and when everyone rises up to attack, he will push the Xing family to block the attack. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone? "

After hearing this, Yan Hou's anger finally subsided a lot.

He hummed twice and said.

"The Xing family thought they were getting a huge advantage, and they weren't just making wedding dresses for others!"

"I don't know, but the Xing family is not completely stupid. If they can take advantage of this opportunity and successfully take over the government, it's uncertain who will be in charge and who will be in charge in the future."

At the end, Minister Yan added.

"The Xing family is not the Guo family. They have a bottom line in doing things. Even those who are not in the same party as themselves always leave a way out. But they do this because they want to cut through the mess quickly and develop the power of the DPRK and China. Really? Look, there are going to be many people in Xinke who are disciples of Prime Minister Xing!"

When Yan Hou heard this, he realized that he was really old.

When they were young, they all followed the founder of the sect and their father to create the world. At that time, there were no conspiracies and conspiracies. There were only endless battles for territory and wars. Being alive today is considered a blessing.

But now, the people in the court treat these old marquises the same as those outdated royal relatives. They respect them on the surface but look down on them behind the scenes. Therefore, more and more marquisates are just empty names, but they can't pick out a good descendant to have a place in the court.

Seeing that after three or five generations, I am afraid that even the title will not be kept. It is really a new emperor and new ministers.

So he looked at his eldest son, with a feeling of entrusting the whole family in his eyes.

"I am old, and I can't see these fights and killings anymore. You should take on all the responsibilities of this family. The Queen can only rely on you three brothers. Silang is not very promising, so it will be you and Sanlang who will have to carry on in the future."

"Don't worry, father. It has come to this point. Even if our Yan family wants to retreat, no one else can make us retreat. Moreover, the eldest prince has great ambitions. If we can support him to the throne, our Yan family can be considered to have maintained peace for generations. He is not an ungrateful person like your majesty, so let's just move forward."

After hearing his words, Marquis Yan felt relieved, but how to move forward was another difficult problem.
