Chapter 408

"Oh? Master Ye, tell me quickly." Lin Yifan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly urged.

Ye Hongyu looked around at everyone, and said calmly: "My lord, what the two lords said just now makes sense. The subordinates think that we can indeed set up a Protectorate in the Western Regions to control the countries in the Western Regions. But the time for the expedition , my subordinates are inclined to what Mr. Han said, that we must send troops next year. However, during this period, we are not doing nothing. We can take a multi-pronged approach. On the one hand, we can restore relations with the Eternal Kingdom through diplomacy and negotiate Establish business contacts. On the one hand, we will secretly contact the countries in the Western Regions to strive for the support of some states. At the same time, we will continue to suppress the Western Golden Wolf Khanate and continuously weaken its influence in the Western Regions. This is the so-called long-distance and short-term attack. A vertical and horizontal strategy.”

Lin Yifan nodded in satisfaction, "Lord Ye's plan is very clever. If we want to take over the Western Regions, the Western Golden Wolf Kingdom is our biggest obstacle. But Eternal lives on the plateau, with Tianyun Kingdom watching over us, so we dare not compete with us for the Western Regions However, the Western Region is vast and there are many countries with different ideas. If you rush westward, I am afraid that it will arouse the fear of the countries, and instead fall to the Western Golden Wolf Country, which is really unfavorable to Hengshan. On the other hand, Hengshan, the war will end The soldiers and horses are exhausted, the people's livelihood is difficult, and there is an urgent need to recuperate and accumulate strength. Now we can station heavy troops in Xizhou, recruit refugees to reclaim the frontier, first consolidate the territory of Shazhou and Xizhou, and lay a solid foundation for sending troops to the Western Regions next year. What do you think? "

When everyone heard the words, they nodded one after another. Even Luo Yi and other high-level military officials could only acquiesce in this.

After the discussion, Lin Yifan returned to the mansion and wandered around the mansion with his son in his arms.Because of the tense war before, although he was at home, he was always busy with government affairs, and had no time to interact closely with his son.Now that the war is over, everything is no longer in a hurry, and he can finally hold the child to cultivate feelings.

When Lin Yifan went to the garden to enjoy the spring scenery, he saw his uncle Lin Chang sitting in the pavilion, waving to him.

Lin Yifan hurried over, and Lin Chang couldn't wait to pick up his nephew, coaxing him with a smile.

Lin Yifan sat on the side, watching with a smile, forgetting all the previous troubles.

"Yifan." Lin Chang said while teasing the child, "Uncle has been here for more than half a year. He has seen what he should see and worried about what he should worry about. Now there is no one in our ancestral home. The popularity, the ancestors must be unhappy. I think I will go back in a few days, apologize to the ancestors, and pray for them to bless you in safety and longevity."

"What? Uncle, you want to go back?" Lin Yifan was startled, and said reluctantly, "Why did Uncle go back in such a hurry, it's not good to stay here and watch. Are you willing to leave us?"

"Ah, Yifan, there are always people in my hometown." Lin Chang squeezed Lin Gan's little arm reluctantly, "Our family's blood is weak, and we don't have any clansmen to trust. I stay here with my old bones It's been a long time, I can see with my own eyes that you are living well, that Gan'er is born, that you can add a child to our Lin family, and that's enough."

"Uncle, I can send someone to take care of our ancestral house, so you don't have to go there." Lin Yifan still didn't give up, he didn't want his uncle to leave from the bottom of his heart.After finally having an elder relative by my side, this time I go back, and I don't know when I will see each other again, so it is naturally sad.

"Nonsense!" Lin Chang gave him a serious look, "They are outsiders after all, how can they be compared with our own family? Our ancestors don't know them. You don't need to say more, I have already made up my mind."

"Well, even if you want to go back, don't be in a hurry." Lin Yifan became anxious immediately, and made a compromise suggestion, "Why don't you go back after autumn, when you can go back to the ancestral house to worship the ancestors, Take shelter from the cold."

"Okay, okay, don't try to persuade me anymore." Lin Chang said with a smile, "If you hadn't been busy with the war during this time and couldn't take care of the family, I had to stay here to take care of the whole family, even last year's ancestor worship Go back. Now that your battle is over and you have settled down, it is time for me to go back."

"But uncle..."

"Yifan, listen to me first." Lin Chang interrupted Lin Yifan and looked at him solemnly, "Yifan, before I leave, I have a few words to say to you. I know you love me very much. Qing'er, this is very much in line with your father. Uncle is very happy. But now you have a big family and a big business, and you are no longer a small family. The most important thing in a family is to reproduce offspring, continue the family, and maintain the family business. It's not your uncle forcing you, but your responsibility. I hope you can take more concubines and have more children. This is not only for the sake of our Lin family, but also for your great cause."

Lin Yifan's face suddenly darkened, and he looked at Lin Chang with piercing eyes, "Uncle, did someone persuade you in front of you?"

Hearing this, Lin Chang couldn't help avoiding his eyes, and said falteringly: "Yifan, you, don't care if someone said something to me. Just think about it, is uncle right? I, we are all thinking of you .”

Lin Yifan stood up impatiently, walking back and forth, his eyes were full of anger.He actually didn't dislike taking concubines, but he was afraid that Qing'er would be sad and let her love him down.At the same time, he didn't want all the women who came in to come with a purpose. What's the point of a marriage without an emotional foundation.He naturally understood why some people kept admonishing him to take a concubine. In the final analysis, it was because Qing'er's background was too powerful. His father was the general of Hengshan, who was in charge of the entire army, and his elder brother was the general in charge of the elite cavalry.Such a powerful influence of foreign relatives makes some people feel worried.They hoped that they could take concubines and dilute Qing'er's power in order to check and balance the Luo family's power.

But he has already promoted Qin Yuanhao, Zheng Han, Hou Mingfeng and others as important generals to disperse most of Luo Yi's power. Doesn't this not eliminate some people's worries?Now Hengshan is just a separatist force occupying a corner of the country, and it is splitting up internally, which is really detrimental to Hengshan's future development.He was deeply worried about this.

After a long time, taking a deep breath, Lin Yifan sat back on the stone chair, looked at his uncle firmly and said, "Don't try to persuade my uncle anymore, my nephew knows how to deal with it, so don't worry about it when you are old."

"Oh!" Lin Chang looked at Lin Yifan and couldn't help but sighed, "Well, since you don't want to, uncle won't say any more."

When Lin Yifan told Qing'er and his sister that his uncle was leaving, their faces changed immediately, and they all cried and begged Lin Chang to stay.

But Lin Chang had already made up his mind to go, so they couldn't persuade them to stay, instead he dragged them and ordered a lot of things.It is nothing more than to let Qing'er continue to work hard and have more children.Then he urged Lin Shuwan to get married quickly and let that kid Luo Feng come back to get married.

Within two days, Lin Chang was ready to leave. Lin Yifan didn't dare to be sloppy, and immediately selected [-] elite guards to protect Lin Chang's safety.It wasn't that Lin Yifan didn't want to send more people. One was that Lin Chang didn't let him go. He thought it was ostentatious to bring so many people, so he was determined not to bring more people.The second is that Huazhou is the power of the Li family after all, if they bring too many people, it will attract their attention.

When Lin Chang's carriage slowly drove southward, Qing'er and Lin Shuwan beside him were already crying into tears, even the child in Lin Yifan's arms stretched out his little hands, frowned, and babbled towards the distant carriage Waving hands, as if knowing that a relative has left.

Lin Yifan looked at his uncle's carriage leaving, feeling extremely sad.It's just that he didn't realize that the parting this time turned out to be an eternal farewell.
