girl, you're wrong

Chapter 300 Talk about conditions

The next morning, Taicheng Center.

Entering here for the second time, I still have the surging feeling of stepping on the heart of the empire.The last time I came to see the emperor of the empire, this time I came to see Zhong Shuling, and the two times I met were the highest power holders of the empire.

However, Cheng Jinyang wasn't nervous this time, even more relaxed than last time.

There is no other reason.The only one to rely on is Gaoda.

The meeting place with Yu Zhongshu was at the official restaurant of the prime ministers, which is the "leadership restaurant" where Taicheng opened a small stove for the prime ministers.

When he came to the restaurant, he saw Yu Yuangui was already seated. In front of him was a bowl of porridge with seasonal vegetables, scallops and shrimps, a plate of pickled melon, a plate of peanuts, a plate of sauerkraut, and a plate of fermented bean curd.

As a porridge meal, it was considered luxurious. Cheng Jinyang had never seen porridge served with four dishes.However, as a leader's breakfast, it seemed too shabby.

Yu Yuangui was over forty and a half years old, which was the peak period of blood concentration, but the level of spiritual pressure was not strong. Cheng Jinyang felt that the other party was similar to Cheng Ben and the old man, and should be around the fifth grade.

Obviously, Lord Zhongshu's current political status does not come from his strength.To be more precise, it does not come from his hard power, but from his in-law relationship with the first emperor, empress, and prince.

Just to be honest, Yu Zhongshu has nothing to do with the current Cheng Jinyang, no matter whether Yu Zhongshu gains his position by force or nepotism.Anyway, he is confident that one day in the future, he will have both strength and nepotism...

Not to mention other things, this Yu Zhongshu only looks at his appearance and temperament, and he is indeed, as the outside world said, "a beautiful jade in a good year", a handsome old man with a beard and elegance.Princess Nankang's nose is also very similar to her uncle's. It is straight and straight, like the keel of a treasure ship, which directly supports the overall appearance.

"Sit." Yu Yuangui said.

Opposite him, a seat had been reserved long ago, and the smiling princess sister sat next to her, pushing the menu that had already been ticked over.

"I ordered your favorite dish for you, take a look. If there is no problem, I will ask the waiter to place the order."

"No problem, that's all." Cheng Jinyang said with a smile.

The princess sister stretched out her hand and asked the restaurant waiter to come to pick up the menu. Yu Yuangui didn't touch the porridge on the table, looked into Cheng Jinyang's eyes, and said after a while:
"Your appearance is very similar to your mother."

Cheng Jinyang: ………………

My eyes are not green, how come they resemble my mother?

"Xiandi." Yu Yuangui said with emotion, "Xiandi has a very good relationship with your mother. Even if your mother chose to give up the protection of the Sima family in the end, Xiandi still issued a silent order to prohibit anyone who knew her true identity from spreading news—Xiandi Still protecting your mother."

"However, the attack on Wujiang Town three years ago was indeed beyond everyone's expectations. It is still unknown how those monsters passed through the Feishui defense line and arrived at Jiangbei in Jiankang City. But if you know a little bit about the empire If you know the division of military and political areas, you will know which area Li Yang is responsible for guarding."

Cheng Jinyang fell silent, he understood what Yu Yuangui meant.

The other party was implying that it was Li Yang's weak defense that allowed the high-level demons to infiltrate Wujiang Town, which led to the death of his parents.

As for whether Li Yang was an unintentional mistake, or was he deliberately infiltrated by demons to create a sense of crisis in the center of the empire and deepen his reliance on Li Yang's military town... The more you think about it, the more people can't help being hostile to Su Zi high.Dereliction of duty, public and private, this guy deserves to die.

Seeing his uncertain expression, Yu Yuangui said lightly:
"Su Zigao was promoted by Emperor Yuan, and he has the kindness to know you. During the reign of the first emperor, the relationship with Taicheng was also extremely harmonious. The existence of the refugee army greatly relieved the population pressure of Jiankang City on the one hand, making the imperial capital It was not overwhelmed by the swarming refugees from the north, and on the other hand, it also erected a military defense line in Jiangbei."

"It's just a gentleman's fortune, which will decline in three generations. Fuze is like this, let alone people's hearts? During Wang Chuzhong's rebellion, this person was still respectful to the central government, and he also cooperated with the dispatch of troops to threaten the left wing of the Longxiang army from across the river. However, after this battle, he did not From Wang Chuzhong's rebellion, he saw clearly the weakness and exhaustion of the center of the empire, so he gradually became dissatisfied."

"In the past three months, he has carried out several rounds of purges among the generals in the army, and all the secret agents of Jin Yiwei in the refugee army have been removed. Now we have completely lost control of the refugee army, and war is imminent. "

Cheng Jinyang listened silently, while the princess sister sat beside her, drinking glass after glass of wine.

Yu Zhongshu's words revealed a lot of information, but Cheng Jinyang already knew the corresponding conclusion, and he even knew that Su Zigao had secretly contacted Patriarch Shishao in an attempt to join forces and go south to rebel.

It's just that the source of the news is hard to explain, so he can't tell Yu Zhongshu. At this time, he can only pretend to be surprised and dignified, as if he suddenly felt unprecedented pressure.

"Uncle." Putting down the empty wine glass again, Princess Nankang suddenly whispered, "You are too impatient."

Sudden questioned by his niece, Yu Yuangui looked stunned, frowned and said:
"It's not that I'm impatient, but that the time left for us is running out."

"The refugee army needs time to prepare for rebellion, and we also need time to recover from the last rebellion." Princess Nankang said in a deep voice, "Jiankang City will not be able to withstand the second war in a short time!"

"But the war must end in the near future!" Yu Yuangui showed an unquestionable cold expression, and said forcefully, "I can't explain more to you, but the time window for allowing war may suddenly close at any time!"

"The time window to allow the war?" Princess Nankang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly asked, "It's the satellite... No, the satellite can't penetrate the fog over the Central Plains. What did your informant in the north discover?"

"These are state secrets and should not be stated here." Yu Yuangui seemed a little regretful. He glanced around sharply again to confirm that Jin Yiwei was still monitoring the entire restaurant, and it was impossible for anyone to eavesdrop. Then he said in a deep voice, " In short, the situation of the empire is already in dire straits. How can a family survive under the collapse of the nest?"

He said the last words to Cheng Jinyang, and his expression was extremely serious.

Of course Cheng Jinyang understood what he meant.However, he still remembered that the Zhongshu order was very bad. The last time Wang Chuzhong's rebellion was at the end, the god capital Cheng had a chance to leave Jiankang to avoid danger. It was Yu Zhongshu who intervened and asked his family to stay and guard Jiangning District .

If I didn't know how to drive Gundam, I'm afraid I would really suffer a big loss.Now you miss my Gundam again, do you really think I'm so talkative?

Seeing that Cheng Jinyang pretended not to understand, Yu Yuangui knew that he could not be persuaded by the righteousness of his family and country, so he gritted his teeth and said:
"If you can make great achievements in the war against the refugee army, I will let Her Majesty the Queen Mother make the decision, so why not betroth Nankang to you?"
