Unparalleled Concubine

Jing'an Hou smiled and nodded.

"That's why I completely agree with Senior Brother Ye's approach."

…………

After staying in the State Shepherd's Mansion for half a day, Li Xin paced out from the door, and among the three people who followed him in, only Zhao You'an and Mu Ying walked out together, and the little father-in-law Ye Mao stayed behind. By Ye Ming's side, he obeyed his father's teachings.

Now it is fast forward to early summer, and the weather is getting hotter. Li Xin is wearing a thin shirt, and Mu Ying and Zhao Jia are following behind him.

The three of them wandered around Jingzhou Mansion for a while, and when they reached a place where no one was around, Li Xin didn't look back, but said calmly, "Brother Mu, I need you to go back to Hanzhou Mansion to meet Li Xin. Xing, tell him, I will wait for him for another two months, if he still does not reply, then the original proposal will be abandoned.”

Mu Ying nodded, and said, "Humble job, let's go."

Li Xin hesitated for a moment, then continued: "By the way, tell Uncle Mu that we can start preparing for what we agreed on earlier."

Mu Ying froze for a moment, then lowered her head again.

"I understand it."

After all, he turned around and left.

Only Zhao Jia was left, still following behind Li Xin.

This young man from Chen Guogong's mansion turned his head and took a meaningful look at the direction Mu Ying was going, then turned his head and lowered his head and said, "Master Hou... is planning something big?"

Because Zhao Jia was born in the capital after all, and he is a serious Jin native, so Li Xin didn't tell him all his plans clearly, lest he do bad things.

Seeing Zhao Jia's question, Li Xin said with a smile: "Brother Mu is a survivor of the old Southern Shu. Brother You'an should be aware of this. What Brother You'an doesn't know is that since Brother Mu was with me two years ago Since then, I have been in contact with the Mu family in Nanshu."

Zhao Jia was silent for a while, and then said, "Master Hou..."

"Don't worry, His Majesty knows about this."

Li Xin's face was calm: "The late emperor also knew about this. These Nanshu remnants are the key to us breaking the situation in the Southwest. After all, if we only rely on Senior Brother Ye to fight head-on, it will be very difficult to take down the Southwest."

Li Xin laughed dumbly: "It's nothing serious. There are still 5 households of the survivors of Southern Shu. At least [-] soldiers can be drawn. My Majesty and I both mean to take these [-] people for our own use as much as possible. In this way, the situation in the southwest will be much clearer.”

In fact, Li Xin did not lie. He had communicated with Emperor Taikang about his cooperation with the Mu family, and even with Li Xing. Listen to whom.

On the side of Emperor Taikang, as long as this "rebel army" helps the imperial army to attack the Pingnan army, it is fine, but the condition given by Li Xin, the "middleman", is that this rebel army should completely listen to Li Xin.

This is the middleman making the difference.

It's just that relatively speaking, Li Xin, the middleman, is a bit black-hearted, because the price difference is really too big.

The two walked on the streets of Jingzhou Mansion, discussing things while listening to the surrounding dialects that were completely different from those in the capital.

"Master Hou, the 5 people you brought here?"

"Leave it all to Senior Brother Ye."

Li Xin smiled relaxedly: "Senior Brother Ye has also found a place for us, we just need to live in Jingzhou for a while, and as for the matter of whether to fight or not, let a professional like Senior Brother Ye handle it. "

Zhao Jia frowned.

"Uncle Ye doesn't want Lord Hou to be the director?"

"It's because I don't want to be a director myself."

Li Xin narrowed his eyes and looked towards a teahouse in the distance.

"Come on, let's go find a place to drink some tea. It's not shameful to keep walking on the street."

The two were still walking and talking.

Lord Jing'an chuckled: "According to Senior Brother Ye's plan, this battle won't be fought for a while. I don't bother to care about those military affairs. All the food and grass have been delivered to him. Let him work alone."

"Furthermore, there is a young man who can help him."

Zhao Jia smiled wryly: "Then we can't travel thousands of miles to Jingzhou city to do nothing?"

Li Xin patted him on the shoulder and laughed.

"Brother You'an, your bones are too weak. From tomorrow morning, you will practice the boxing post with me. I have practiced this set of boxing post for more than two years, and it is very useful."

Chapter 482

Originally, Li Xin himself was not very good at directing battles on the spot. After all, his previous record of leading troops was just to take 5 feather guards to Jimen Pass for a walk, and he was able to take [-] soldiers without missing a single one. Even if it is not easy to bring it to Jingzhou City.

Therefore, in this regard, there is no need to fight for power with Ye Ming. Simply hand over all these people to Ye Shaobao, and Li Xin will feel more relaxed.

Besides, he has more important things to do.

The two sat down in a private room on the second floor of a tea house. Zhao Jia got up and poured a cup of tea for Li Xin.

"Master Hou, if you let go of military affairs like this, after three or five years of fighting, most of the Right Battalion of the Forbidden Army will be from the Ye family."

There are a total of eight Zhechong mansions in the Right Battalion of the Forbidden Army, and three of the captains of Zhechong mansions are directly from the Ye family. Grandpa Ye Mao.

"There's no need to be so clear with the Ye family."

Li Xin lowered his head, took a sip of his tea, and said with a smile: "At first, I didn't pay much attention to the Right Battalion of the Forbidden Army. The Forbidden Army is His Majesty's Forbidden Army. No one can take them for their own use. If that's the case, then let him go. "

"The Ye family already has a Zhenbei army in their hands. They can't take this forbidden army away, and I can't take it away either. It's meaningless to care about it."

Li Xin thought for himself, took a sip of tea, and looked out the window.

"Let's just quietly watch how the situation in the southwest changes."

Zhao Jia sat under Li Xin. He lowered his head and pondered for a long time, finally looked up at Li Xin, and said in a low voice, "Master Hou, if the Southwest is pacified, what are your plans?"

Li Xin turned his eyes from the window to this young man who was not a few years older than himself, and then smiled: "Since the Southwest has been pacified, I have received a great contribution for nothing. Capital, just live my life of wealth and honor."

Zhao Jia shook his head.

"Your surname is also Li."

"When His Majesty first came to the throne last year, you helped His Majesty cut off the family songs of all the generals in the capital. Not long ago, you offended the Shanyin Xie clan..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Jia said in a low voice: "Before the current Majesty ascended the throne, there were not many confidantes in the court. In order to seize power, he will inevitably reuse his wives. Pigs will also be blown into the air by this wind, and you offended them by a coincidence."

"Based on what I know about Lord Hou, Lord Hou is a very cautious person. The reason why he offended the Shanyin Xie clan so recklessly is probably to deliberately make enemies so that His Majesty can rest assured of Lord Hou."

"However, if the Marquis doesn't have more plans in the future, the pressure on the court will increase. Her Royal Highness, the Princess, doesn't have that much face..."

Li Xin looked calm, and lowered his eyebrows to look at Zhao Jia.

"Your Majesty today is not someone who crosses rivers and demolishes bridges. I have done so many things for him, and he will never sit idly by."
