at the same time.

Although Shen Chen was depressed, he sent Dabao and Erbao to a private school after they had breakfast, and then wanted to go back to Lin Xi as soon as possible.

But what I didn't expect was that I was intercepted by two ladies on the way.

Shen Chen had no choice but to follow the boy to see the two masters. When he arrived, the two masters were sitting in the yard talking.

Seeing him coming, Master Li pointed directly to the letter on the table and said straight to the point: "You can read the letter sent by the Yang family on the right side of the Yangtze River."

Hearing this, Shen Chen calmed down and walked over, picked up the letter, opened it, and browsed it hastily.

Chen Fuzi said: "After all, it is taboo to mobilize troops without an imperial edict, so nearly half of the Jiang You army that supported Jinling this time was actually from the Yang family's private army. But when Yang Shizhong reported it, he did not include his part of the private army. When he reported it, he wrote a letter to inform us, asking us to keep it secret as well and not to say anything else."

Shen Chen said: "Accept the favor and do the right thing, that's what you should do."

Master Chen nodded, "As long as you know what's going on."

Shen Chen put down the letter and added: "However, there are tens of thousands of Qin soldiers who came to support, and half of them are the Yang family's private army. It is impossible for the Yang family to send out all their private armies, which means that the Yang family's private army Much more than tens of thousands.”

Master Li stroked his beard and said meaningfully: "For the clan, there are indeed too many private soldiers like this, which is enough to make the Holy Emperor feel threatened. If not, why do you think he wrote the letter specifically?"

Shen Chen said, "That's not what the Yang family is worried about."

Master Li raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why do you see that?"

Shen Chen said calmly: "The four major clans of the Qin Dynasty each have their own specialties, so Taizu allowed him to keep his own private army."

"Among them, the Yi family in Jinling was the private army of the Yi family because the old lady was from the old Chu royal family. In order to appease the remaining Chu people, the Yi family's private army was established. But now, most of the Chu people are gone. With the rule of Taizu and the emperor, , Today the distinction between Qin and Chu has become increasingly weak, and everyone in the world knows about the Great Qin, but no longer knows about the old Chu."

"Under such circumstances, if the Yi family retains a private army, it will easily arouse the suspicion of the Holy Emperor. Yi Hong is not a fool, so he simply handed over the private army to me at this juncture. If it were just because of his son's token, he would probably But just give me half of your private army. Now, although I have promised him that the details of the Yi family will not leak out from me, there is no guarantee that the emperor will not know about it, because Yi Hong is originally a member of the emperor."

Master Li then said: "So the Yi family is already innocent in the eyes of the current Holy Emperor. Even the old lady of the Yi family will not live long. In the future, the Holy Emperor will be more confident in using the Yi family. The Yi family will not decline for at least a hundred years."

Master Chen shook his head and sighed: "The Jinling Rebellion was a rebellion against the party and the beginning of a clan rebellion. The Yi family has been cleared first. If other clans continue to follow the current situation, they will most likely be targeted by the Holy Emperor. .”

Shen Chen nodded in agreement.

He understood better than anyone that the emperor was ambitious.

Not to mention, the Xuanwumen Palace Incident left a profound impact on the emperor, making him even more ambitious than Taizu, and making him intolerant of cliques among courtiers and decentralization of power among clans.

I haven't done anything about it now because it's not the right time.

But as long as the northern and southern borders are stabilized and there are no foreign troubles for the time being, the emperor will start to deal with it.

Yi Hong followed the emperor and had already figured out the emperor's intentions, so he took advantage of the Jinling incident to take out the Yi family.

The other clans are not stupid, and have their own information channels, so they must have guessed it, so the Yang family does not want the emperor to know that they have too many private troops at this time.

Master Chen said at this time: "Shen Chen, you people, and Lingjun, they..."

Shen Chen's words were concise and concise: "They know what to say."

Master Li put some snacks in his mouth and said, "Even so, you should give them a warning after you go back and don't let them cause trouble."

Shen Chen nodded and saw that nothing happened, so he said goodbye and left.

After returning, Shen Chen first met the three Wang Shou who had returned from an outing, and said: "You are here just in time. I have something to tell you. This time the Jinling incident has passed, the relevant details, especially Jiang Youjun, you are all so bad." In your belly, don’t mention it to others.”

Yan Zhong handed over his hand and Wang Shoudao said: "Brother Shen, don't worry, we can save it."

They understood when the imperial envoys came to Jinling to discuss their merits and reward them, but they were not mentioned. They must be involved in something very important and subtle, so it was best not to appear in the eyes of others.

Shen Chen left after giving instructions.

Du couldn't help but watch him go away, and raised his hand to make a few gestures.

Wang Shou said unexpectedly: "You said Master Yi has come to see you privately and hopes that you will return to the Ministry of War?"

Du couldn't help but nodded and gestured: "I guess Lord Yi should also report me to the Holy Father."

Yan Zhong became a little anxious: "What should we do? Why don't we go talk to Brother Shen? He hasn't gone far yet, I'll go right away..."

Du couldn't help but quickly grabbed Yan Zhong.

Yan Zhong was puzzled, but Wang Shou understood after thinking about it: "I can't help but mean that Brother Shen must know. Do you think that because of his special status, so many people in Jinling have seen him, and he can still hide it? But since Master Yi came to Bu You in private, which means that the imperial court has no intention of going back without help."

Du couldn't help but nodded.

Yan Zhong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good."

…

On the other side, when Shen Chen found Lin Xi, she and Jiang Yu were talking about making new clothes for the children.

The children have grown so fast that last year's clothes already don't fit. Needless to say, they will definitely have grown a lot by the end of the year, and at least they will need to make new winter clothes.

Lin Xi had just finished measuring the three and four treasures when she saw Shen Chen coming.

Jiang Yu said with a smile: "My father sent me some ornaments. I will take the three treasures and the four treasures to see them."

Si Bao still wanted to be with Lin Xi, but with a look from San Bao, he followed Jiang Yu obediently.

Shen Chen's expression softened a little, he walked into the room and called out: "Madam."

Lin Xi said angrily to him, "Come here and stand still, don't move."

Shen Chen followed the instructions.

Lin Xi asked him to open his hand and measured his size, "I just want to make new clothes, so I made them together with yours. The few pieces you wore to Jinling are all worn out, and they don't look good even if they are repaired. I don't know. What do you do all day long?"

Shen Chen whispered: "We slept in the open air, covered the sky and covered the ground, running around, traveling through mountains and rivers."

Lin Xi raised his head and glared at him: "Come on, you are so important. Even if the people following you only have one tent, they will give it to you. Let me tell you, I am smarter now. You can't deceive me with your cruel tricks..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Chen quickly hugged him into his arms.

Lin Xi struggled for a while but didn't break away, so she simply let him hug her.

Shen Chen's voice was gentle: "If my wife doesn't care about me, my plan of suffering will not work."
