Yu Yue's eyes were shining with light, and the expression on his face was also uncertain. Finally, his eyes rested on Wen Bai's face, bright and bright: "Wen Bai, you have been my book boy and **** since you were eight years old. You are by my side as a companion. You have been my best friend since childhood. I have never treated you as a servant, but as my brother and my best friend. The time we spent together , the relationship between us is better than my feelings for my wives, concubines, and my son. Why do you think this is?"

Wen Bai sighed faintly: "If it is to the head of the family, then I have to say, because this is your destiny and mine. I was trained as the intelligence manager of the Yu family since I was a child. It is my destiny to be your right-hand man since I was born. This is also the fate of you and me." The mission of my ancestors over the past decades, if it is for you personally, my best friend in this life, then I have to say that we have the same aspirations and similar interests, so we can come together, just like this time, I know, You end up meeting that person because you have no choice.”

The muscles on Yu Yue's face twitched: "Why do I have no choice? Liu Daogui bullied others, seized my soldiers and horses, and put me under house arrest. Don't think that he defended Jingzhou and achieved great success. It's so easy to forget it. I just need to return to Jiankang, unite all the major families, and file a lawsuit together. Even Liu Yu can't protect his biological brother. Defeating Xu Daofu is one thing, but this is not him You can take away my subordinates at will and insult me ​​as the head of a noble family!"

Wen Bai looked at Yu Yue calmly and shook his head: "Master, you can just say these words to outsiders. What's the point of saying these in front of me? What makes you different from other children of aristocratic families is that You personally raised a team and led the troops to the front. This is qualitatively different from those children from aristocratic families who just want to follow the army and gain military merit. If you want to make meritorious deeds, you must rely on them. This army must be established independently. You fought guerrillas in Jiangzhou for a year and persisted in fighting behind enemy lines. You can almost be said to have made the first contribution. However, in the end, Zhu Chaoshi took over the army alone. His subordinates They rebelled one after another and caught you. Everyone knows about it. Even if you return to Jiankang, how can you have the nerve to mention it? "

Yu Yue's face turned livid, and his hands clenched into fists. Obviously, these words touched his pain, but even so, he had nothing to say to refute. Only his increasingly heavy breathing could show that It showed the depression and injustice in his heart at this time.

Wen Bai sighed: "Moreover, Liu Daogui has the emperor's scepter in his hand. In an emergency, he can order all states and counties west of Jiangzhou to mobilize all troops and appoint and remove all officials. I can't take your army with my right hand." It is reasonable, but it is also within the scope of his authority as the General of the Conquest of the West. If he loses, we can hold him accountable, but now that he has defeated Xu Daofu and saved Jingzhou, it is already a great achievement. To put it mildly, doesn’t his approach prove that it is correct? My lord, your soldiers were placed under more suitable generals, and Zhu Chaoshi made great achievements. "

Yu Yue said bitterly: "Does Zhu Chaoshi's good fighting prove that I am not good enough? If it were me, I might be able to fight better than him. Don't forget, Zhu Chaoshi has been a prisoner himself this year. He even killed his own people, but I fought behind enemy lines for a year."

Wen Bai curled up his lips: "Lord, it's meaningless to say this. No matter how you express your dissatisfaction in front of me, after returning to Jiankang, those other high-ranking families will not listen to your complaints. Now Liu Yu's power Pang Pang, both brothers defeated Tianshi Dao and made great achievements. On the contrary, it was the high-ranking family who successively revealed two big traitors, Liu Tingyun and Xie Xuan. Under such circumstances, each of them had no time to protect themselves. Do you have time to complain for you? Not to mention, this time it is our own subordinates who personally handed you, the lord, into the hands of Zhu Chaoshi. This kind of behavior is tantamount to mutiny, and the general who cannot control the mutiny under his command, According to military law, he can even be executed."

Cold sweat broke out on Yu Yue's forehead. He took out a handkerchief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said unwillingly: "But, is this the end of the matter? If I can't even take these subordinates away, don't say anything. It will become a joke among the aristocratic families, and I am afraid that even the other slaves in the Yu family manor will flee."

Wen Bai sighed: "My lord, after we return to Jiankang, we will lose power and power. Not to mention that if these soldiers and horses don't come back, it will be difficult to preserve the foundation of the Yu family. Our relationship with Liu Tingyun It was very deep in the past. Many families knew that if they went back like this, they would report to these guys who would only add insult to injury. UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.net And many of the manors run in partnership with Liu Tingyun would definitely be confiscated, and our losses would be But it’s big, and Liu Yi is likely to bring out this evil fire on us, and even the tragedy of the Wang Yu family of the Wang family in Taiyuan is not impossible to happen again in us."

Yu Yue's eyes widened: "Is it such an exaggeration? We didn't kill the old brothers from the Beifu Army like Wang Yu did. We, at least we didn't offend brother Liu Yu."

Wen Bai gritted his teeth: "But we have offended Liu Yi a long time ago. At that time, I advised you not to shame the soldiers of Beifu in public like this, but you can't let go of the noble family's children. You insist on giving them this Lesson learned, Liu Yi is a very vengeful person. Now that he is in power, he will definitely take revenge on us. I am afraid Liu Yu will not offend Liu Yi for us. In the past, Liu Tingyun helped us take care of Liu Yi, but now Liu Tingyun is dead, Liu Yi will definitely attack us."

Like a deflated rubber ball, Yu Yue slumped to the ground, not even pretending to pick up the whisk. He murmured to himself: "Is God going to destroy my Yu family? I have spent so many decades on it." I have tried my best to revive the Yu family, but will it completely fail in my hands?"

Wen Bai shook his head and whispered: "No, my lord, things are still going to change. Liu Daogui was plotted after the great victory. Now his life and death are unknown, and Wang Zhenzhi, who is a descendant of a noble family, has relaxed his supervision over us. , this is the opportunity God has given us, and the person who is destined to help my Yu family has now taken the initiative to find us. This is our last chance to turn around. If you want to give up, then we will go back to Jiankang , sell the Yu family property and seek Liu Yu's protection. From now on, it is okay to be a rich man who indulges in landscapes and has some thin fields. It is up to you to decide where to go." (End of this chapter)
