Unparalleled Concubine

Li Xin was stunned for a while, thinking about it too.

Others may care about such things as credit, but to the young man, it means nothing.

He does not need it.

Ye Ming said a few more words to Li Xin, then suddenly became serious again, looked at Li Xin, and asked in a deep voice.

"Chang'an, brother, I have something to ask you."

Li Xin said with a smile: "Brother, but what you say is true, younger brother must know everything."

This Ye Shaobao reached out and poured a glass of wine for Li Xin, then raised his head and looked straight at Li Xin.

"Chang'an, tell the truth to Brother Wei, what happened to those so-called Hanzhou rebels?"

Chapter 593 Ye Shaobao and Li Houye

From the autumn of last year, when Li Xin led the team over Motianling, to the end of March in the third year of Taikang, it took only half a year. This Lord Jing'an broke Jincheng almost by himself. It seems to be an unprecedented miracle since the opening of the Great Jin Dynasty, but in fact, if you study carefully, you can find a lot of loopholes in the middle.

The most obvious loopholes are those Hanzhou rebels who don't know where they came from.

Even if the Pingnan Army did evil in Shu County, the local people would attack it and organize a rebel army spontaneously, it would be impossible to pull together an army of 5 people, and all of them would appear in the territory of Hanzhou Prefecture.

How many families are there in total in Hanzhou Prefecture?

Even according to the method of conscripting troops in the Great Jin Dynasty, if one of twenty households or even one of fifteen households is drawn, it is impossible to pull up a force of 5 troops within the territory of Hanzhou Prefecture alone, not to mention that in this short period of time The 5 people pulled up also caused damage to the Pingnan Army!

It just doesn't make sense.

Report to the imperial court, the imperial court may not approve it.

Li Xin was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "Brother, no matter where the Hanzhou rebels came from, they helped us after all. As long as we report to them, we will give them the title of a rebel. After the Southwest is pacified, this rebel army Naturally, she will return to Longmu and will not reappear."

Ye Ming stood firmly against Li Xin.

"Chang'an, if you report this statement, will the ministers of the three provinces agree?"

Li Xin lowered his eyebrows and said, "It doesn't matter whether they recognize it or not, His Majesty will."

Emperor Taikang knew about the survivors of Southern Shu early on. When he was the king of Wei, Li Xin told him about the survivors of Southern Shu. Or use it as the key to unlock the Southwest dilemma.

At that time, Emperor Chengde also knew Mu Ying's identity.

The Hanzhou rebels helped to pacify the Pingnan army. Li Xin "replaced" Emperor Taikang and made a deal with the survivors of Southern Shu.

It's just that Li Xin, the middleman, made a little difference.

Of course, neither the Ye family nor Zaifu from the three provinces knew about it. After all, this kind of thing was out of the question. If it got out, how could the dignified emperor do business with the rebels in Nanshu?

Ye Ming frowned deeply and did not speak.

Lord Jing'an reached out to pour Ye Ming a glass of wine, then lowered his voice, and said slowly, "Senior Brother Ye, I shouldn't have told you about these things, but we are a family. Since you asked, I will tell you." Say something."

Li Xin looked around, and after confirming that only the Ye family and his son were the only ones, he said in a low voice: "The rebel army in Hanzhou is the survivors of Southern Shu who died but not stiff. !"

Ye Ming's face changed suddenly.

He frowned and said, "The old Southern Shu has been destroyed for 30 years. I heard that these rebels have been causing chaos in the southwest and are the source of disaster for the Jin Dynasty. Chang'an, how can you cooperate with them?"

Ye Shaobao looked solemn.

"Chang'an, you are a person with a bright future, but don't go on an evil path. If this matter is discovered by others, even if you have made great contributions, this stain will ruin you!"

Saying that, he sighed.

"It's also because of my brother's recklessness. I shouldn't bother with this matter."

With a solemn expression, he said: "Chang'an, don't worry, this matter got out of your mouth and into the ears of my father and son, and there will be no fourth person to know about it."

"As for the imperial court, I will help you a little bit more for my brother. If it is really impossible, hide this Hanzhou rebel army and keep silent. Just mention that your forbidden army broke Jincheng."

In fact, Ye Ming's words are somewhat watery. He may not tell outsiders what Li Xin said to him, but he will definitely explain it to Ye Cheng, and this matter will become a secret, which will be discussed in Ye Cheng's eyes. passed down within the family.

Maybe it will be "useful" someday.

Lord Jing'an said with a smile: "Senior brother, don't panic. Since I dare to do this, I am not too afraid to say it. Although it is not easy to report this matter to the court publicly, it is okay for others to know. "

Ye Ming was puzzled.

"Why is this?"

"Because His Majesty knows."

Li Xin smiled and said: "This matter was originally a business between your majesty and the survivors of Nanshu. The survivors of Nanshu helped your majesty to pacify the southwest, and your majesty gave them a legal identity. From then on, they are no longer survivors of Nanshu, but the great Jin Zimin."

"It has been 30 years since the fall of Southern Shu. Most of these people have no intention of restoring the country. They just want to live in peace. After this incident, they can settle down in the southwest with peace of mind."

Ye Ming suddenly realized.

The general lowered his head and took a sip of wine, with a smile on his face: "So that's it, I said that Changan, with your cautious temperament, shouldn't be able to do such a bold thing, since His Majesty is behind the scenes. If there is nothing to fear, then we have nothing to fear, just hide their identities as survivors of Southern Shu, say they are Hanzhou rebels, and report the rest truthfully."

Li Xin said with a smile: "Brother is wise."

"The matter of the southwest, brother, can you report it to the imperial court?"

Ye Ming put down his wine glass and said with a smile: "Chang'an, you broke Jincheng. After receiving the news, Brother Wei wrote a letter to the capital as soon as possible. As for the specific details, we need to discuss it carefully with you and me. It’s easy to write the details and report to the court.”

Li Xin lowered his head and calculated, then said slowly: "Calculating the time, if senior brother expedites the journey with six hundred miles, it will take only two days for the news of the victory in the Southwest to be sent to the capital."

Ye Ming patted Li Xin on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Once the news reaches the capital, Chang'an, your Jing'an Hou Mansion, will be doomed for generations to come."

Li Xin blinked, but did not speak.

It is too difficult for a family to share weal and woe with a dynasty.

If the imperial court received news of the Southwest War, according to Li Xin's understanding of the Taikang emperor, he would probably...

Li Xin was thinking about the affairs of the capital, Ye Ming at the side poured him a glass of wine, picked up the glass and clinked a glass with Li Xin.

"One more thing, brother, I need to communicate with you, Changan."

Li Xin also picked up the wine glass, and both of them drank it down in one gulp.

"Brother, please speak."

Li Xin said with a smile.

Ye Shaobao was silent for a while, and then said: "Brother Wei knows something about you and Li Shen. He is your biological father. Now he is in prison. If he enters the capital, he will die."
