But Yu Linyan is Zhou Xun's elder, so... it should make sense...

Everyone else thought so, suppressed the sense of weirdness in their hearts, and focused on the upcoming battle.

"According to the plan." Zhou Xun ignored the expressions of the others, and got on the horse by himself.

The matter of eating the cakes just now did have his deliberate elements in it, although he intended to take two cakes for Yu Linyan to satisfy his hunger because he was afraid that Yu Linyan would not be full.

only……

Thinking of the behavior just now, Zhou Xun felt embarrassed for himself. If this kind of behavior was put in the past, Yu Linyan would probably blame himself.

He just took advantage of the fact that Yu Linyan wouldn't care about him now.

Yu Linyan's horse had been prepared a long time ago, Zhou Xun helped him choose it in advance, and it was considered a good horse in the army - it was convenient for Yu Linyan to use for running.

"This war horse is docile..." Yu Linyan looked at the war horse with a smile on his face, "I'm sorry."

"Individual matter."

At this time, the Imperial City Army was at the office.

"It's really ridiculous," a man looked at the sand table in front of him, with a bit of sarcasm on his face, "I thought that King Jin was really capable, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that."

"Ben was promoted by others, how capable do you think he is?" Another person laughed.

"This time we cooperated internally and externally and let him be buried in the sea of ​​flames..." The man smiled presumptuously, "It's also thanks to the one who found out the news for us, otherwise we would have to go to the mountains to waste our time."

"When you return to the imperial city, His Highness will definitely reward that person," said the other person with envy on his face. "I'm afraid their family will be revived again."

"That's not it, from now on it can be regarded as the crown prince, and the glory and wealth will be inexhaustible in the future..."

"Hey, it's useless for us to be envious. After all, not everyone has that blessing. We might as well wait a while and see if we can capture that King Jin alive. It will be a meritorious service."

"That's true."

The two discussed and walked to the front of the army. At this time, their advance troops had already arrived in the woods. Looking at the army in front of them, there were smiles on their faces.

"Our army is majestic, and those Xiao Xiao will definitely bow down at our feet."

Before they finished speaking, an arrow fell at their feet.

"What's going on?" The man was startled, but before he could react, arrows rained down from the sky.

"There is an ambush, retreat quickly." The other person came to his senses and hurriedly issued an order.

Just as they were retreating in the direction of their return, a large army blocked their way.

There was a rain of arrows, there was an army in front, the leader also panicked, and said: "Hurry up and hide in the woods."

With the shelter of the woods, the rain of arrows would not be able to hurt them.

But he forgot the method he once wanted to use against others.

As soon as the army entered the forest in a hurry, arrows with flaming arrows fell in the forest with afterimages. For a while, a fire ignited in the forest, and the fire was fierce.

"Ambush the people on the other side?" Zhou Xun stood on the mountainside, looking at the burning forest, slightly turned his gaze, and asked General Qin beside him.

"Return to Your Highness, the ambush has been laid long ago, and Xiang Ji is leading the team."

"If General Xiang is leading the team, I'm naturally relieved." Zhou Xun looked back and said.

"Thanks to His Royal Highness's good plan this time, otherwise we won't win easily this time." General Qin laughed.

"That's thanks to someone who tipped me off," Zhou Xun said lightly, "otherwise we would be the ones in the forest now."

"That's right, this time they can be said to be stealing chickens without losing money..." General Qin smiled more and more complacently.

"We should indeed find that person out and reward him for his meritorious deeds." Zhou Xun's words seemed to point to something, which made the man trembling.

Yu Linyan didn't speak, he just looked at the burning forest, seemingly lost in thought.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Xun asked.

At this time, the battle situation had become a foregone conclusion. General Zhou Xun led his soldiers down the mountainside, leaving only Yu Linyan and Zhou Xun behind.

"Suddenly I feel that I will eventually make a big mess if I pay more attention to civility than martial arts."

"The world is peaceful. Although there are not many places to use troops, the trend of the world has always been divided and combined. Who can say what will happen at this moment?"

Yu Linyan's eyes brought a trace of deepness: "If it's time to use the army, what can we do with these book bags that only memorize the military book on paper?"

"But since the world is in a state of affairs, long-term division must unite, and long-term unity must divide, even if the army is strong, it will be useless if the people's hearts are against each other." Zhou Xun shook his head. He didn't know much about the ancient political system, but after so many years Education also understands the importance of the hearts of the people.

In his opinion, emphasizing either literature or martial arts is a strategy for national development. After many dynasties, there are always more people who prefer literature, which is also reasonable.

"If one day becomes what the people want, then everyone can be an army, and as for good generals..."

Zhou Xun paused when he said this: "There are always people who like martial arts but not literature. This has nothing to do with the situation. Just don't deliberately suppress it."

"Nonsense," Yu Linyan frowned, "how many people in the world go for profit, and how many go for profit? Although the people you mentioned exist, they must be more or less arrogant..."

"...not suitable for officialdom."

"Besides, good generals value the word "good". The word "good" emphasizes both character and talent, while most generals on the battlefield are capable generals who only value talent..."

"Although good generals are good, they are hard to find, and they may be indispensable. If we continue to follow the situation of our dynasty, good generals will exist in the long run, but they will be far from enough..."

"You mean you need to be capable at this time?" Zhou Xun asked.

"It's natural."

"That's true..." Zhou Xun paused, "But have you ever thought about what would happen if you value martial arts and despise literature?"

"What if there are no competent ministers in the court?"

Yu Linyan: "..."

He was silent for a moment and didn't know what to say, maybe he didn't want to say anything.

"What are we talking nonsense here?" Yu Linyan suddenly smiled.

"I was talking nonsense just now, King Jin don't take it to heart."

"It's okay, I'm just talking nonsense..." Zhou Xun frowned, "You don't need to call me that when there are no outsiders around."

He realized that in this world, Yu Linyan always had a sense of distance from him, perhaps because of his status, Yu Linyan was not as open as he was in the previous world.

Zhou Xun naturally didn't like this.

If Yu Linyan was testing himself before, then he is only a counselor now.

I am the master, and he is the minister.

There is no way to change this situation, and Zhou Xun can only take one step at a time.

Yu Linyan was taken aback for a moment when he heard what Zhou Xun said. Looking at Zhou Xun's face, he suddenly asked in his heart, "Nephew?"

Zhou Xun: "...let's go back."

Zhou Xun felt that anger had probably become something in Yu Linyan's bones, and he couldn't get it out no matter what.

Back at the barracks, the soldiers were all immersed in the joy of victory, but the faces of the generals were all heavy.

Although it is a good thing to win this time, it shows that there must be meticulous work among them.

The plan at that time was to hide the truth from the imperial city barracks, so none of the soldiers knew about their plan. Now that something went wrong, someone must have leaked the news.

And this person is still among their generals.

But after Zhou Xun came back, he didn't mention it, just pretend it never happened.But everyone knew that this matter could not end well, so they had to be suspicious of each other.

"Are you sure you want them to guess?" Yu Linyan looked at Zhou Xun, "It's easy to shake the morale of the army."

"I know." Zhou Xun nodded.

How could he not know how easy it is to shake the morale of the army?But there is still not enough evidence to find that person out, so taking it lightly would be to scare the snake away.

"Then let me offer a plan," Yu Linyan twitched the corner of his mouth, said something softly, and then said with a smile, "What do you think?"

"No." Zhou Xun shook his head.

"Why?" Yu Linyan didn't expect Zhou Xun to refuse, and looked at Zhou Xun in a daze. This method would do him no harm, but why...

"Damage to your reputation." Zhou Xun shook his head.

"...Do you care about this?" Yu Linyan didn't expect this to be the reason, and was a little dumbfounded.

"Ah."

"Are you treating every subordinate so well? Are you still concerned about his reputation?" Yu Linyan asked doubtfully, "Then being your subordinate would be too happy."

Zhou Xun paused, looked at Yu Linyan and sighed.

The era he lived in was different from the era of this world. Although there was no escape from conspiracies and tricks at that time, the awareness of human rights had long been engraved in everyone's mind.How could Zhou Xun use other people's reputation to do things at will?

Moreover……

"You are not subordinate." Zhou Xun said.

"At this moment, even my father is your subordinate." Yu Linyan misunderstood his meaning and shook his head. "Your Highness, you are more indecisive than I imagined."

"It's not indecision..." Before Zhou Xun could finish speaking, he heard Yu Lin say:

"However, I appreciate your highness. I would like to thank your highness for protecting my name."

How could Yu Linyan really not care about his own reputation?After all, he is also a scholar, and a scholar values ​​integrity. If there is no way to cleanse his reputation behind this plan, he may not be willing to do this.

He didn't want to be poked at the back and scolded.

"...I suddenly remembered one thing," Yu Linyan laughed suddenly. "It stands to reason that I am the prince, and now I am going to help you. I am afraid that there will be nothing good to say about it in the mouths of those sour scholars."

"Those people can't beat you." Zhou Xun shook his head and said half-jokingly.

But I began to ponder in my heart.

There are so many people in the world, how could Yu Linyan say it by himself?

One mouthful of spit could drown him.

The real world is the clearest example.

"...I won't let them talk about you either." Zhou Xun added at the end.

Having learned a lesson before, it is naturally impossible for Zhou Xun to repeat the same mistakes.This time, it was impossible for him to let Yu Linyan be disturbed by rumors again.

Yu Lin paused, not understanding why Zhou Xun said that.

But when he looked at Zhou Xun's handsome features, he was inexplicably touched.

Could it be that you are being passionate?

After Yu Linyan realized it, he laughed at himself.

How could he be sheltered by Zhou Xun as a pawn?I thought it was just that he wanted to use himself.

Baizi is stained with dust, maybe it is sunspot.

Naturally, Bai Zi must be kept clean.
