Unparalleled Concubine

"Forget it, let's not mention the matter of northern Xinjiang. Let's talk about it when there is a real fight."

Lord Jing'an narrowed his eyes, and said calmly: "The question now is whether I should go to Beijing."

"Of course not."

Zhao Jia said decisively: "In the past few years, Lord Hou knows best what the imperial court's defense of the southwest has become. Now not only Hanzhong has the imperial court's garrison, but General Pei Jin has recruited another 5 people in Ankang. Now that the training is almost done, there is a tendency to break into Jianmen Pass at any time, and in the past few years, the imperial court has sent an unknown number of people to sneak into Jincheng, searching for news about Tianlei."

Speaking of this, he glanced at Li Xin and continued: "Hou Ye sent Manager Chen to Jincheng to supervise the pharmaceutical affairs, and his subordinates and Mu Ying also paid great attention to the safety of Manager Chen. They have protected him for the past few years. Very good, but those people can't get in touch with Mr. Chen, they only want to get in touch with real pharmaceutical people."

Because Jincheng has been preparing for war in the past few years, it needs to hoard a large amount of sky mines. In the past few years, it has set up several workshops in the mountains for the production of sky mines.

The method of work is to use an assembly line operation, each person is responsible for one of the processes, and each other does not know what the others are doing. In this way, roughly confidentiality can be achieved.

But even so, these workers were still contacted by people from the court. They either threatened or lured them, and tried every means to get the key prescription.

Speaking of this, Zhao Jia paused, and then continued: "In my opinion, if this continues, the imperial court will get a similar prescription sooner or later. People in the capital clearly regard the Southwest as a bandit, so they can't help it." If you regard Master Hou as a bandit, if Master Hou enters Beijing at this time, there will definitely be big problems."

Zhao Jia looked serious.

"The current emperor is not the young man who just came to the throne three or four years ago. He has been in power for three years. Whether it is the imperial guards or the imperial army, they are all in the hands of the emperor. After Lord Hou entered Beijing, he really wants to treat Lord Hou. If you do it, Lord Hou probably won't be able to escape."

What Zhao Jia said is right, the current emperor is no longer the young man who was forced to cry by several ministers three or four years ago. That position is the most important to hone a person's heart, and it will also distort a person's personality. Personality, after three years, no one knows what he looks like now.

It is too risky to enter Beijing at this time.

Li Xin frowned and let out a breath slowly.

"Then I'll wait in Jincheng, and wait until there is news from the capital, and then consider the next move."

Zhao Jia sat down and looked up at Li Xin.

He asked, "Does Hou Ye have any other thoughts?"

Li Xin smiled dumbly: "Brother You'an, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. You and I have been old friends for more than ten years, so just say what you have to say."

Zhao Jia was silent for a while, and said silently: "Master Hou, the Xianbei tribe once ruled the Central Plains, and there are only two generations now. As long as they recover their vitality, they will definitely not be willing to stay outside the pass until Yu Wenzhao has accumulated a certain amount of money. For the capital, he will definitely find a way to knock it off."

"With the war in northern Xinjiang, my opportunity in the southwest has come."

The scholar in white looked up at Li Xin again and asked slowly.

"We have known each other for more than ten years, and my subordinates know that Lord Hou is not a peaceful person. Once the war in Northern Xinjiang starts, most of the court's energy will be attracted to Northern Xinjiang. Even the Gyeonggi Imperial Army will send some to support Northern Xinjiang. When the time comes The capital will become very weak."

"Master Hou doesn't want to take this opportunity to lead troops out of Shu to compete in the world?"

Chapter 957

Li Xin didn't find it strange that Zhao Jia could say this. In fact, not only now, but as early as the Taikang Dynasty, this dog-headed military division who had been by his side had been trying to persuade him to rebel.

Lord Jing'an smiled.

"There's a question I've always wanted to ask Brother Youan."

Zhao Jia's face was calm: "Master Hou just ask."

Li Xin got up, first looked at Zhao Jia, and then asked with a smile: "As early as a few years ago, did brother Youan want me to rebel? It stands to reason that brother Youan grew up reading sage books. You should be loyal to the emperor and patriotic, why are you thinking about how to rebel every day, Brother Youan?"

Zhao Jia looked at Li Xin and took a deep breath.

"Lord Hou, Shen Kuan in the capital is strict and clumsy. They also grew up reading sage books, and they may be better at reading than I am. Besides, they are already in the position of auspiciousness. Don't they plot to abolish the emperor?"

"Human desires are endless."

Zhao Jia let out a breath slowly, and said, "When I first met Lord Hou, I told him about my life aspirations."

Li Xin nodded, with a calm expression: "Brother You'an told me at the time, you want to be an official, guarding the land and keeping the people safe, and you don't want to be an aide in Chen Guogong's mansion for the rest of your life, hiding behind others."

Zhao Jia smiled: "It's rare that Lord Hou still remembers this."

"Don't hide it from Lord Hou, Zhao Jia's original intentions have not changed."

He said slowly: "After conquering the west with Lord Hou, Lord Hou also fulfilled his original promise and found me a position as the county magistrate of Liyang. Don't hide it from Lord Hou. During those two years, I was the county magistrate. Seriously, I still remember the names of the gentry and village elders in Jiyang County, and I personally asked about the spring sowing and autumn harvest in the county."

Having said that, Li Xin was silent.

He felt sorry for Zhao Jia for this matter. Zhao Jia had been in the Southwest for him for five full years at that time, helping him to rectify the affairs of the Southwest. Finally, after five years were up, he went to Liyang to be the county magistrate. He was very impressive, and because of Li Xin's words, he left his favorite career, hung his seal and resigned, and came to the Southwest again to help Li Xin manage the Southwest's political affairs.

In the blink of an eye, another five years have passed.

There are only a few five years in life. It has been ten years since Zhao Jia helped Li Xin take up the government affairs in the Southwest. At that time, the vigorous young man in white had a lot of gray hair on his head.

Zhao Jia sat down, drank a cup of tea, first glanced at Li Xin, and then continued: "The first time I left from the southwest and returned to Beijing to be the county magistrate, at that time I thought that the conflict between the Lord Hou and the court was too serious. So far, coupled with the fact that the late Emperor was at its peak in the Spring and Autumn Period, the southwestern side will probably be like this in the next few decades, so I plan to be my county magistrate in Liyang with peace of mind. I will be an official for decades and do more things for the people , When the first emperor gets old and embarrasses Lord Hou, I will also be old, so I will bury my head and stop asking about the affairs between you two."

"But... the late emperor's body collapsed as soon as it collapsed."

Speaking of this, Zhao Jia sighed endlessly.

"At that time, Lord Hou was trapped in the capital by the late emperor and entrusted me to go to the southwest again. I knew in my heart that I would never be an official of the Jin Dynasty in this life."

Zhao Jia raised his head and looked at Li Xin.

"What Hou Ye said is right. I grew up reading sage books, so I really want to stay in Dajin and be an official of my own honestly, even if my reputation is not obvious or mediocre. In the future, I will leave a name in the place, leave a good reputation in my ancestral home, and leave an example for future generations."

"No matter what, it's better than being a traitor."

"Although I was in the southwest at that time, I kept thinking about this matter. I knew very well in my heart that if the southwest continues like this, it will be nothing more than the end of the Pingnanhou Mansion. I may not be included in the history books by then. Even if it is written in the history books, it is just the word "anti-thief."

"My father's blood will be cut off when I come here."

"After a long time, I figured it out."

As he spoke, Zhao Jia looked at Li Xin with a smile.

Of course Li Xin understood what she was talking about, so he took a deep breath and asked, "If you can't be a courtier of the Great Jin, you can be a hero for the founding of the country?"

Zhao Jia nodded with a smile.

"I thought to myself, I can't eat the meals of the Ji family, but I can still eat the meals of your Li family. After all, I chose the Marquis myself, and it's too late to regret it."

"From that time on, what I thought in my heart was not about the southwestern corner, but how to change the dynasty."

Zhao Jia put his hands in his sleeves and said calmly, "As long as we change our surnames in this world, we won't be rebels anymore."

Hearing Zhao Jia's words, Li Xinxin was quite touched.

Zhao Jia was the one who "borrowed" from Old Man Ye when Li Xin was only [-] or [-] years old and wanted to take charge of the Imperial Army.

Later, Zhao Jia's performance made Li Xin very satisfied, and he had the idea of ​​not wanting to pay back. After a lot of talk, he finally succeeded in changing Zhao Jia from the Ye family to the Li family. Since then, it has been more than ten years Zhao Jia followed him all over the country, helping him with countless things.
