Brother Beggar refuses to beg

The matter started when Xie Chen received a secret letter. This secret letter came from Duan Lin who had not been in contact with him for more than two years. Yin Su had not read the contents of the letter.

After receiving the letter, Xie Chen fiddled with the business of selling salt. If he wanted to legally sell salt, he needed to obtain approval from the government. This is Yanyin.And Yanyin is a difficult thing to get. In addition to the salt merchants from all over the country that have been sealed off earlier, there is a way for newcomers who want Yanyin to donate supplies to the border army.

For them, it is most convenient to donate food and grass to Jiansui Pass in the southwest, but now the southern border is extremely stable. Jiansui Pass has not seen turmoil for decades, and only the northwest border occasionally sees beacon fires from time to time.

The Northwest Army was a powerful army cultivated by the Xie family. After Xie Chen severed ties with the Xie family, the emperor made a fuss about re-establishing his son and asked the Xie family to make concessions. He temporarily handed over the position of general who was changed every three years to Duan Lin.

In the past, no matter how the generals in the Northwest were changed, they were all from the Xie family, or the confidant generals.Without the approval of the Xie family, it would be difficult for the new general to command the troops under his command. This is also a thorn in the emperor's heart, which has long since rotted and festered, and must be removed quickly.

No one is more suitable for this tricky position than Duan Lin. He is Xie Guogong's nephew and married the daughter of the former Southwest General.

Xie Guogong fell out with him, but in the end he still has half of the Xie family's blood, and the current confrontation between the two is exactly what the emperor needs, he needs someone who can check and balance the Xie family.

The Su family, the former Southwest Great General, has a longer family history than the Xie family. It has been an aristocratic family since the last imperial power dynasty, and it has established many great achievements in the Dayuan Dynasty, and is very important to the emperor.

There are also many generals in the Southwest Army faction. Although they are not as prosperous as the Xie family, they are still towering trees and cannot be easily shaken.

It's a pity that the Su family has always been a single lineage. In this generation, General Su died young, leaving only one daughter who was fostered by relatives and suffered harsh treatment.

This dusty pearl was discovered by the Duan family, and they tried to marry it back home. This married not only a wife, but also a powerful network behind her.

Miss Su was treated harshly by her relatives before, which means relatives have custody rights. It is very difficult for outsiders to directly interfere in other people's family affairs, but it will make her situation worse in the future, so the confidant of the Su family has been holding back.

Once married, the emperor has to fulfill his promise to the Su family and give the Su family a place in military power.Even if there is only one daughter left in the Su family, the emperor still wants to ensure the existence of the Su family, one is to appease the generals of the Southwest faction, and the other is to continue to fight against the Xie family.

The existence of the Duan family once caused the emperor to have new worries, but later he gradually realized that Duan Lin's current complicated identity and background could be used to make a fuss.With Xie Guogong's approval and that level of blood relationship, the Northwest Army can still be basically commanded, and the relationship with the Southwest Army is Duan Lin's help and resistance to his complete control of the Northwest Army.

This will be the situation that the emperor likes the most. He can hold the northwest frontier, but he can't make his family bigger and completely hold the army in the hands of the general.The new eldest son of the Xie family is a mediocre person who cannot be supported. The whole family is being gradually emptied out, and everything is developing in a direction that is beneficial to the royal family.

However, the current emperor seems to be not quite satisfied with the status quo. Even though he holds Duan Lin's close relatives in his hands, he still has great vigilance.

Since the founding of the country, the military power of the royal family has been left outside again and again. In the past, Tai Zu did not ask for military power and came back. It has been accumulated from generation to generation, and it has become a heart disease for several generations of emperors. It has reached its peak in this generation.

Xie Chen didn't dare to show Yin Su the contents of that letter, the less he knew, the safer he would be.Yin Su never guessed what was written in the letter. He got too few clues, except that Xie Chen suddenly wanted to start a salt business, and he knew nothing about it.

The reason why he became suspicious was because the magistrate Yang Heng said that he was helping to get the salt, but Xie Chen was not very enthusiastic.Outsiders couldn't tell, but Yin Su could clearly see some of Xie Chen's careful thoughts as a pillow person who met day and night.

Xie Chen is not a person who minds using relationships to achieve his goals, otherwise he would not have gone to Jiangnan to ask Nie Kongming to offer tea in the first place.

Yang Heng is willing to take matters into his own hands. Xie Chen's performance shouldn't be so absent-minded, unless he wants to be fake, and the excuse is true if he has other purposes.

Afterwards, Yin Su once asked Xie Chen, but Xie Chen only told him that he had to go to the northwest frontier, and that someone might target the Yin family recently, asking him to be more careful.

At that time, Yin Su thought that the banker was the person he said, so he delayed the matter for so long, trying to find out what they wanted to do, but it turned out that they were just ordinary merchants who came for the Yin family's property.

After the dealer's affairs were settled, Yin Su did not feel at ease, but became more and more uneasy, and everything was full of depression.Yan Zhao's arrival, and Xie Chen's contact with Xie Chen twice and three times in the name of gratitude, he is not just jealous, but smells a hint of danger.

That kind of feeling, just like before he took the first dart trip, he faintly felt that this matter was risky, but he had no obvious sense of crisis, and he had to do it.

"What did Yan Zhao tell you, that you want to abandon me all the time?" Yin Su hugged Xie Chen, his tone very aggrieved, "It was agreed at the beginning, I don't mention reconciliation, you would not leave, and now you have broken your promise."

he got caught with an excuse

Xie Chen, who was bullied all the time, was lying on the bed lazily, not wanting to move. Even if he was physically strong and practiced martial arts every day, he couldn't stand Yin Su's desperate toss.

"If you don't tell me, I'll follow you so that you can't go anywhere." Yin Su clung to his body, really planning to treat himself as a pet.

Xie Chen was helplessly entangled by him, and he was aware of his thoughts. At this time, it was meaningless to cling to his mouth and refuse to let go.

"The emperor intends to attack the Northwest Army. Duan Lin has already received the news in advance. I can't let it go." He turned his back to Yin Su, and there were too many turmoil hidden in a short sentence.

The Northwest Army is the foundation of the Xie family, and it is also Xie Chen's comrades who fought side by side. Duan Lin is his twin brother.

Yin Su didn't know the details, so he asked, "Duan Lin wrote to tell you?"

Xie Chen shook his head lightly, and replied: "He just said that he needed a drop of my heart, and someone would come to pick it up on my birthday, but he didn't tell the reason. But I got it from the secret sentry who stayed in the army before. I know, there are some unfavorable rumors about Duan Lin quietly spreading in the army, I guess it is most likely the emperor's intention, but I don't know what kind of result he will end up with."

"What kind of rumor?" Yin Su knew that he was worried about his younger brother, so he hugged him and turned him over, and gently patted him on the back to comfort him, "Tell me, maybe it will open up a little bit from another person's point of view." train of thought."

As for Yin Su, he had nothing to hide, so he told all the news he had.

In Yin Su's view, the rumors secretly circulated in the Northwest Army are sowing discord, and I don't know who it came from.Rumor has it that Duan Lin hates Xie Guogong very much. Not only does he want to rely on the Southwest Army and the Xie family to fight against him, but he even confuses the emperor with rhetoric. .

The content of the information is half-truth and half-false is the most difficult to distinguish. Duan Lin and the Xie family are at odds, and he married the only daughter of the Su family and received the support of the Southwest Army. It is all true. This rumor is easy to win people's trust.

And a rumor that is even more confusing is that Duan Linlai had a relationship with a prince from a certain country in the Western Regions.

At first glance, there is no problem. After all, he is stationed at the border, the pass bordering the countries of the Western Regions, and it is not impossible to meet the leaders of the Western Regions.

But once you think about it, you will feel that this sentence has a lot of meaning.

"Is this prince from the Western Regions a prince from a country that fought against Duan Lin before?" Yin Su always felt that he had caught something, so he couldn't help but continue to ask.

"That's right, according to the news from my side, the war last winter was initiated by the prince's country, and he was the one who led the troops at that time." Xie Chen knew everything.

For Yin Su, who has read various novel routines, he wondered where he had seen this kind of plot: "What does Duan Lin have to do with him? Why do they come and go, or do you know what they did?"

This question didn't bother Xie Chen, he opened his mouth and said, "They only met twice, for the sake of learning about martial arts. The prince from the Western Regions was cut off by Duan Lin on the battlefield, and he must be dissatisfied in his heart, so he asked him to compete in martial arts again and again. .”

"Chen'er, why are you so clear?" Yin Su narrowed his eyes and stared at him, as if something was wrong.

Xie Chen averted his eyes with guilt, how could he admit that he was worried that his younger brother would not be able to cope with the military affairs, but in fact, he had also placed people beside Duan Lin.It may not be possible in other places, but Northwest Daying is the territory of the Xie family.

Basically discovered Xie Chen's brother-in-law attribute, Yin Su did not expose it, and said with a smile: "If these rumors are all released by the emperor, I think I have already guessed his purpose, Chen'er, do you want to know? ?”

Xie Chen didn't speak, just looked at him, a glance could make Yin Su understand that he was urging to speak quickly.

"Hey, let me tell you first. I'm guessing in the worst direction. You can't mess up your position." Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, but when he met his firm and trusting eyes, Yin Su was defeated.

After Xie Chen responded, Su Jiang expressed his own thoughts: "The Xie family, the Northwest Army, Duan Lin and even the entire Duan family are all hidden dangers that threaten the imperial power in the eyes of the emperor. I want to get rid of them without causing turmoil. Bearing the consequences of being counterattacked, judging from the current situation, there is a relatively safe way."

"Instigating a war between the countries of the Western Regions and the Dayuan Dynasty, we should cooperate internally and externally to annihilate the Northwest Army, and then put all the charges on Duan Lin.
