Chapter 979 Loyalty and Disloyalty
After coming out of the study, Cheng Yu's complexion was a little bad.

It is because what Jia Xu said just now is also his disrespect for the royal family.

He even suggested to Yuan Tan that he would replace the Han Dynasty.

For him, that was a treasonous move.

Even if it was a matter of time, Cheng Yu still couldn't accept Jia Xu mentioning it now.

After the two walked away, Jia Xu also noticed that Cheng Yu's complexion was not very good at the moment.

Then he asked: "Zhongde, what's the matter with you, you seem a little uncomfortable?"

Cheng Yu didn't hide it, and asked Jia Xu: "Wen He, what did you mean just now? Did you also want to support King Qi's rebellion?"

When Jia Xu saw Cheng Yu talking about this, he smiled and said, "Zhongde, I'm afraid you have misunderstood this!"

Cheng Yu immediately said angrily: "Don't pretend that I didn't hear it. Before you asked King Qi to replace the royal family and add Zhengyi, didn't that imply that King Qi can now replace the Han family?"

Jia Xu shook his head and said, "Zhongde, you misunderstood me."

Seeing that Jia Xu was still pretending at this time, Cheng Yu said angrily, "What, Wen He, are you trying to lie to me too?"

Jia Wei smiled and said: "You and I have been working together for many years, don't you still know me? At this time, King Qi returned to Yecheng. I am afraid that everyone in the world will feel the same about the suspicion that he will replace the Han Dynasty. However, I am still alive As a counselor, I naturally want to guess what King Qi means. That's why I took the risk to try it out just now."

Hearing what Jia Xu said, Cheng Yu calmed down a little and said, "If that's the case, then judging from King Qi's attitude just now, it seems that he didn't mean that."

Jia Xu sighed: "Oh, it is so, but I am a little disappointed."

Cheng Yu said: "What does this mean?"

Jia Xu said: "Zhongde, look at the current royal family, look at the emperor, he ignores government affairs every day, and we handle domestic affairs for him, and he rarely intervenes. Such a royal family is still What is the need to exist!"

After Cheng Yu heard this, he also thought of Emperor Xian, and hated him a little bit.

But I have nothing to do, even if what Jia Xu said is true, but after all, the royal family is named Liu!

This big man said that breaking the sky is also his own.

As a courtier, how can you exaggerate?
Then he said to Jia Xu: "Even if what you said is right, you can't..."

After hearing Jia Xu's words, Cheng Yu was also a little shaken in his heart, and now he couldn't even find a reason to convince himself.

Jia Xu immediately pulled Cheng Yu and said, "Zhong De, in fact, no matter what the outcome is now, we should make plans in advance, otherwise when we really face such a situation, it will be a life-and-death choice. "

Cheng Yu also understands this truth, but now he still has no way to accept it.

Jia Xu saw that Cheng Yu was very conflicted in his heart at the moment, and then he smiled and said: "But there is no need to worry too much now, after all, the current King Qi has no such plan, so I will just continue to do what a courtier should do honestly. alright."

Cheng Yu looked at Jia Xu, seeing that he could still laugh at this moment, he also shook his head and sighed: "Wen Ruo's mentality is really a model for me! I want to learn a thing or two from you."

Jia Xu laughed and said, "Then Zhongde will spend his whole life."

Seeing Jia Xu boasting so much, Cheng Yu felt relieved for a while.

He also smiled and said, "You are so arrogant, it reminds me of someone."

Jia Xu asked, "Who is it?"

Cheng Yu said: "It is one of the many staff who came back with King Qi yesterday. I heard that it is Liu Ling."

Jia Xu asked: "Oh? I'm afraid this person is another learned man recruited by the King of Qi! Otherwise, how can he be qualified to be the aide of the King of Qi?"

Cheng Yu said: "That's right. I talked to him a few words that day. Although he is extremely proud, he does have some talents in his stomach."

Jia Xu also said: "I'm afraid that a new generation will replace the old ones. Zhongde and I must be careful, don't let these juniors catch up."

Cheng Yu said: "If they want to catch up, they may have to study for another two years."

Jia Xu pointed at Cheng Yu and said with a smile, "Zhongde, I see you!"

It is enough to say this.

As the two talked and laughed, they also swept away the previous haze.

The two went into the palace hand in hand to ask for an order from Zhengyi.

And Yuan Tan also rushed to the barracks.

After the conquest of Shu this time, the strength of Yuan Jun also reached an extremely large number.

Excluding recruits, there are a full 20 veterans alone.

If the new recruits recruited later are added, the current Yuan Jun may have reached a million troops.

These people are enough to show that the current Yuan family can be described as a real weapon of the country.

But now Yuan Tan is not happy with having so many soldiers.

Because the country is basically unified now, there will be no wars easily.

And it takes a lot of food and salaries to support so many soldiers.

This is also a huge expense.

Yuan Tan wanted to disarm the army.

Reduce military funding.

But now that the war has just ended, if we disarmament at this time, it will inevitably mean killing the donkey.

Yuan Tan was also afraid that the lieutenant would be dissatisfied.

At this time, Yuan Tan was also caught in a dilemma.

After Deng Ai accompanied Yuan Tan to inspect the army, he also found that Yuan Tan was worried at the moment.

He immediately asked: "Teacher, I haven't seen you smile since you came today, but is there anything bothering you?"

Yuan Tan looked at Deng Ai and said, "Oh, this matter...forget it, it's fine, by the way, have you ever gone to your senior brother after you came back?"

When Deng Ai saw Yuan Tan mentioning this matter, he immediately said evasively: "That, that, the army has just been stationed, and there are many matters that I need to deal with personally. I will go to see him after I finish."

Seeing Deng Ai's expression, Yuan Tan felt that something was wrong, and said, "Shi Zai, do you know how funny you are when you tell lies?"

When Yuan Tan said this, Deng Ai also understood that his words might not have convinced Yuan Tan.

Then I could only speak bluntly.

"Teacher, I didn't say it, you should also talk about Senior Brother. Look at his current appearance. Anyone who gets close to him is like walking on thin ice. His indifferent appearance, even I can't stand it." Deng Ai complained.

"Really? Why didn't I feel it when we met before?" Yuan Tan asked.

"That's because you are here, teacher. If you are not here, the face of the senior brother will be pulled down in an instant, not to mention how scary." Deng Ai said.

Yuan Tan was also a little surprised. Is there such a big difference?
Then he said to Deng Ai: "I'm particularly interested in what you said, Shi Zai, let me accompany you to secretly see what your senior brother looks like when I'm not around!"

When Deng Ai heard that he was going to see Xu Shu, he was also unwilling to do so.

But since Yuan Tan opened his mouth, he couldn't evade it, so he could only follow behind with his head down.
