Chu Yucheng nodded and said puzzledly: "This is the strange thing. The Shangguan Tai Lei who served as the governor of Donghai County has an even more terrifying background. Brother Xue, please tell me."

In terms of understanding of the situation in the DPRK and familiarity with the characters and factions in the DPRK, Xue Leihan undoubtedly knows the most inside information among everyone.

Hearing that he was even more powerful than the Zhao family, Chen Yue looked up at Xue Leihan in surprise, and was very curious about this Shangguan Tai Lei.

Seeing that both of them were looking at her, Xue Leihan said in a deep voice: "This Shangguan Tai Lei is the younger brother of the Queen Mother!"

"Brother?" Chen Yue was surprised: "Isn't that the emperor's uncle? Then the Shangguan family are relatives?"

Xue Leihan nodded: "The news came from the court that something happened in the court. The Queen Mother is now supervising the country's governance, so she single-handedly promoted her younger brother who has never been an official."

Chenyue looked confused: "The Queen Mother oversees the country? Isn't there any reaction from the Yuwen family?"

Even though he was on the front line, Chenyue knew that the power of the Yuwen family in the court was getting bigger and bigger. Once the power was obtained, it would be difficult to hand it over. There was no reason for the Yuwen family to let the Shangguan lineage take the lead.

When Chu Yucheng heard this, his eyes narrowed, he stretched out his hand and gestured and said: "Can we boldly speculate that the Queen Mother wants to compete with the Yuwen family for power?"

"The possibility is very high!" Xue Leihan took over: "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the imperial power has been eclipsed step by step. Originally, there were Nangong family and Yuwen family in the court to check and balance each other, which was relatively stable. Now only Yuwen family

The fact that one family dominates the whole family must have aroused the fear of the Queen Mother and the Shangguan family!"

Xue Leihan hit the nail on the head and analyzed the situation in the court very thoroughly.

"Hey, isn't there still a Chu Party?" Chen Yue suddenly said with a smile: "Your Xue family and Zhao family join forces, they are also a very powerful force!"

Xue Leihan smiled bitterly: "Brother Yue, you don't know that my father is upright and hates party strife. So now the Chu Party is vaguely headed by the Zhao family, and the Zhao family alone cannot deal with the Yuwen family."

Although Xue Leihan did not tell the family's real situation in detail, he explained the general situation to the two brothers without reservation.

"Alas!" Chen Yue sighed: "In this world, a good official like Uncle Xue has become an alien. How ridiculous!"

Chen Yue, the three grandsons of the Xue family, has only met two of them, but both Xue Leihan and his grandfather Xue Shenchen are both upright, at least giving Chen Yue a good feeling. Xue Lei must have never met him before.

The same goes for Han's father.

Chu Yucheng pondered for a moment: "You mean the Zhao family and the Queen Mother have joined forces? Your Xue family did not participate?"

Xue Leihan nodded: "At least I haven't received any news from my father, and grandpa probably doesn't know about it either. However, the relationship between my Xue family and the Zhao family is still good. Although the Zhao family has not discussed this matter with my father, but outside the country

It seems that the entire Chu Party is on the side of the Queen Mother. If the Yuwen family fights back in the future, it will definitely include the Xue family."

The three of them fell into silence at the same time. This feeling of being forced to divide into gangs must be uncomfortable.

Chenyue raised the question again: "Then these two are both noble people, how come they come to the front line to be governors?"

"Use it as a springboard!" Xue Leihan said without hesitation: "When we successfully suppress the rebellion, they will naturally have a reason to join the court as officials, and then they can truly pose a threat to the Yuwen family!"

Chen Yue nodded with sudden realization.

Chu Yucheng gritted his teeth, looked at Chen Yue and said, "Brother Yue, there is one more thing we need to plan for early?"

"What's the matter?" Chenyue asked in confusion.

"Where do we stand?" Chu Yucheng said lightly.

Chenyue was stunned: "We? The dispute in this court has little to do with us, right? Do we still need to divide ourselves into gangs?"

Chu Yucheng glanced at Xue Leihan, who said helplessly: "Brother Yue, this is not up to you. Now everyone in the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty regards you as a member of the Yuwen family. Now the Yuwen family has been manipulated by the Queen Mother.

Together, the governors of the three counties have all been arranged by the Queen Mother. When they arrive in the south, our attitude will be very important!"

The reason why Xue Leihan is called three counties is because the governor of Lingzhou has long been in the hands of the Xue family. Now that the Zhao family, who is also a member of the Chu party, has turned to the Queen Mother, others will naturally regard the Xue family as a member of the Queen Mother's side.

.

Chenyue's eyes became cold, and he stood up with his hands behind his back, wandering back and forth in the yard.

Chen Yue was not surprised at all that he was classified as a member of the Yuwen family. After all, his rise from Liangzhou was also the process of the Yuwen family slowly taking control of the Ministry of War.

Chen Yue relied on Yuwen's family to ask for money and supplies, and quickly built an iron-blooded army in Liangzhou. And Yuwen's family also relied on Chen Yue's military exploits to gain a firm foothold in the Ministry of War step by step, until Nangong

The downfall of the family.

Once the governors of each county take office, Chenyue, the Annan general, will definitely have to contact them in many places, so the attitude between them is very important. If the two sides become enemies, it will only cause trouble for no reason.

Chenyue thought for a while and said softly: "We are not helping each other! Just focus on the war!"

Xue Leihan also stood up: "What if the Shangguan family tries to win over you, or directly stumbles you?"

Chen Yue's hands behind his back were gently squeezed, and his eyes became a little sharp: "If you want to win over me, just adapt to the situation and try not to break up with both parties. If they don't open their eyes and create obstacles for us, huh, no one will offend me.

I don't offend others, but if they offend me, don't blame me for being ruthless! The lives of our Liangzhou soldiers must not become victims of party strife!"

Chu Yucheng and Chu Yucheng trembled in their hearts. Now that Liangzhou has been involved in the court situation even though it is still in its infancy, it is indeed a troublesome matter.

Chenyue turned his head and looked at the two people who were a little dull. The murderous look in his eyes disappeared and he said with a smile: "You guys are just too nervous. On the other hand, being involved in a fight may not be a bad thing!"

Now it was Chu Yucheng's turn to be puzzled. Could this be a good thing?

"Want to hear the details!" Xue Leihan asked.

Chenyue sat down again, put down the sleeves he had rolled up during morning exercises and said: "We are both a favorite with the Yuwen family and the Queen Mother. There was only one Yuwen family before. If we want to develop our strength, we can only rely on it.

Yuwen family, so once the Yuwen family finds out that we are disobedient, they can replace all the generals in the Liangzhou army with their own people without hesitation."

After saying this, Chenyue paused and raised his eyebrows at Chu Yucheng.

"I understand!" Chu Yucheng suddenly realized: "And now, if the Yuwen family gives up on us, the Queen Mother will not hesitate to step in to save us. In this way, we are equivalent to turning to the Queen Mother. So the Yuwen family now values ​​us more than before.
