General Zhao calmed down. He looked at the young scholar in front of him quietly and said calmly: "If Shen Qin is envoy, the court can allow Zhao to return to the court to be raised now."
"Zhao said nothing and went back to Jiankang with Shen Qin."
His eyes were always looking at Shen Yi, and the meaning in his eyes was unclear: "I'm afraid that Shen Qin sent you. Although you are an imperial envoy of the imperial court, you cannot speak for the emperor and cannot be the master."
Mr. Shen smiled and said: "I am not the imperial envoy in charge of the Huaihe Navy, so naturally I can't take care of General Zhao's affairs. However, if General Zhao really wants to return home, after fighting against the Northern Qi this time, he might as well go back to Jiankang and follow him.
Your Majesty, please speak your mind."
He looked calm: "The Zhao family has been responsible for guarding the country for three generations. Maybe it's time to let it go."
"lay down…"
Zhao Lu looked at Shen Yi and sneered: "If you put this burden down, who will pick it up? A weak scholar like Shen Qinchen?"
"Before Jiazi, the reason why the state affairs of Da Chen were in decline was because you scholars had such boundless power that you not only took care of civil affairs, but also intervened in military affairs!"
"The Ministry of War even created a marching chart and asked the troops on the front line to fight according to the marching chart!"
Zhao Lu snorted: "It's so ridiculous!"
"If it weren't for you scholars, why would only half of Dachen be left? Why would China be like Lu Chen?"
"If it weren't for the ancestor of our family who held up the last bit of dignity as a martial artist and blocked the menacing barbarians for Da Chen, how could you...you, Shen Ziheng, still be able to show off your power here?"
After hearing his words, Shen Yi stood there, first did not answer, and then laughed dumbly.
He heard the meaning of Zhao Lu's words.
Whether General Zhao Chong blocked the Hu people or not actually has little to do with the Shen family, especially Shen Yi. At most, the Shen family suffered a military disaster that year, which caused Shen Yi not to come to this world.
But no matter what happens to the Shen family, it has nothing to do with the Zhao family.
Therefore, when Zhao Lu said, "You, Shen Ziheng, can still show off your power here," he was not talking to Shen Yi.
Rather, it was said to the court, or more directly, to the emperor.
This sentence contains a lot of resentment that belongs exclusively to the Zhao family.
Without my Zhao family, how could you, surnamed Li, still show off your power here?
Shen Yi heard the meaning behind his words.
So he looked at Zhao Lu indifferently and said with a smile: "It seems that the general has not read history books. He doesn't know how the previous dynasty collapsed due to the separatist rule by warriors, and he doesn't know why the world has been in chaos for hundreds of years."
"This is how this dynasty emphasizes culture and suppresses military force."
Mr. Shen put his hands in his sleeves and said quietly: "Nothing in the world can be separated from the four words "things will turn to the extreme". The sage said the word "golden mean" is the truth. It is indeed wrong for civil servants to dominate everything, but it is wrong for warriors to separate themselves.
, I’m afraid it won’t work either.”
"The imperial court will gradually understand this truth."
"But no matter what the truth is."
Shen Yi said quietly: "There is no reason in the world for another Zhao clan to appear, General, don't you think so?"
Zhao Lu narrowed his eyes: "In the past few years, Imperial Commissioner Shen has been working tirelessly against our Zhao family and overthrowing our Zhao family. What good will it do to you?"
"Without us warriors, how do you expect the penmen in the court to go into battle and lead the troops in war?"
General Zhao sneered: "I'm afraid they can't even figure out how to set up camp."
"Civil officials may not be able to lead troops."
Shen Yi put his hands in his sleeves and said quietly: "Isn't Shen a civil servant?"
"Are you a civil servant?"
General Zhao, who had always been serious about his words, couldn't help but laugh "haha". After laughing a few times, he pointed at Shen Yi and said, "Do you think you are a civil servant because you were born in the second rank of Jinshi?"
"Think about it for yourself, how many days have you worked as a civil servant since you became an official?"
General Zhao sneered: "Which Sixth Division officer would lead troops everywhere like you, Shen Qi?"
"You are no longer a civil servant!"
Having said this, Zhao Lu suddenly took two steps forward. He walked in front of Shen Yi, only one or two steps away. Then he lowered his head slightly and whispered: "Shen Qi, this is not the first time for someone like you.
See."
"During the late emperor's reign, there was a man who was almost exactly like you."
"His surname is Yuan."
General Zhao said slowly: "He is also a second-ranked Jinshi, and he has the temperament to go to the Northern Expedition."
"Since Emperor Xianzong, he has been tirelessly writing to the court, claiming that as long as the court uses him seriously, he can succeed in the Northern Expedition within five years, regain his northern homeland, and return the Chen Ancestral Temple to the old capital."
"Let Emperor Sejong's hanging coffin be buried in the ground."
Having said this, General Zhao smiled: "Emperor Xianzong did not believe in him and has never used him."
"But the late emperor believed it."
"After the late emperor ascended the throne, he began to reuse Mr. Yuan."
"In just a few years, he was appointed as the General of the Northern Campaign, taking charge of all military affairs in the Northern Campaign."
"At that time, even the Prime Minister Zhongshu wanted to avoid his sharp edges."
Having said this, he looked at Shen Yi and said quietly: "But what's the result?"
Shen Yi has heard of this story.
The late Emperor went to conquer Northern General Yuan Du.
He led his army in the Northern Expedition and suffered a major defeat at the hands of Northern Qi general Zhou Jinan in the Huaihe River. In the following ten to twenty years, no one in the entire Chen court dared to talk about military matters.
So much so that Yang Jingzong, the leader of the Turtle Sect, rose to the position of first and second-in-command and had overwhelming power in the world.
"The three Yi tribes."
General Zhao said the same three words coldly.
"What do the three words "Yi Tribe" mean? Shen Qinchen is a scholar and naturally knows better than Zhao, a warrior. Zhao doesn't want to say anything more."
A smile appeared on his lips.
"Finally, Zhao has seen many ambitious and passionate young people in his life."
"All young people want to jump high, jump to the highest point and have a panoramic view of the mountains."
"But."
"The vast majority of young people are not only unable to jump, but will also fall from their original position."
Having said this, General Zhao turned and left: "Shen Qinchao, you are a great young man. So far, you have jumped from the original Jiangdu scholar to a big shot in the court. It is not easy to get to this point.
I hope Commissioner Shen will cherish it."
Having said this, he stopped and looked back at Shen Yi, with a scary smile on his face.
"By the way, let me remind Shen Qin."
"In the past, the late emperor and General Yuan..."
He turned around and left, leading a group of Huaihe naval officers and soldiers, and slowly walked away.
"The relationship is also very good."
Only these five words were left, floating in Shen Yi's ears.
Master Shen frowned slightly and looked in the direction Zhao Lu was leaving.
He knew in his heart that Zhao Lu didn't like to talk very much.
But today, he said so many things to himself.
It means that he has no more methods to use, or in other words, no methods can be effective against Shen Yi.
Therefore, he chose to use verbal attacks to disrupt Shen Yi's mind.
But even so, Shen Yi still felt a little uncomfortable with these words.
After taking a few deep breaths, Mr. Shen calmed down again. He squinted his eyes and looked at the direction Zhao Lu left, and groaned.
"If everyone stops moving forward, there will be no tomorrow in this world."
After whispering these words, Shen Yi turned back to look at Ling Su who was not far away, and said slowly: "General Ling."
Ling Su trotted all the way and ran up to Shen Yi, lowering his head respectfully with a respectful expression.
"Mr. Shen, please give your orders."
"Let's pack up today, and let's set off back to Huai'an early tomorrow morning."
Having said this, Shen Yi looked to the north and said slowly: "The Qi people were severely injured in this battle. They should be able to calm down for a while and wait for the reinforcements from the Yandu court to arrive."
"It's rare to be able to live in peace for a while."
"After their reinforcements arrive, I'm afraid it will be another hard fight. Before the next fight breaks out..."
