Xiao Sheng covered his swollen face. Even after listening to Xiao Hong's words, he still didn't understand where he went wrong and why Xiao Hong was so angry.
Even if his guess is wrong, even if the Holy Emperor is really as angry as Xiao Hong said, it means that Lin Yi has indeed touched his reverse scale. In this case, his answer should be
In compliance with the Holy Spirit's will.
What's more, in the past twenty years from Yongzhou to the present, how many major events has the Lord experienced?
No matter how big the issue is, in Xiao Sheng's impression, the Holy Emperor can solve it satisfactorily.
Lin Yi only has thousands of troops. Even if he causes chaos in the party, what will happen?
He Xiuxian is dead, let alone his disciple.
He intuitively felt that Xiao Hong's anger came from fear, but at this time, he didn't know what Xiao Hong was afraid of.
Thinking about the popular comments among the people, when he lowered his head, he couldn't help but feel aggrieved. He thought to himself that although they were brothers, why was it that one could make people look up to him, as gentle as the bright moon on the top of the mountain, and yet seemed to be able to shine completely?
In the entire Southern Dynasty, why was the man standing in front of him so timid and timid like a bamboo rat in the bamboo forest?
Xiao Hong's anger could not go away.
He was trembling all over. He looked at Xiao Sheng who lowered his head and knew that this man could not understand those truths after all, let alone truly understand himself.
Is it wrong to be cautious?
It is difficult to build a country, but it is even harder to maintain it.
In his view, any gentle and slow changes can make this dynasty grow slowly like a big tree, so he has always resisted any move that might cause drastic changes to this dynasty.
This state of mind naturally affected his command of the army.
He always felt that even if the war between the Southern Dynasty and the Northern Wei continued to stalemate, this stalemate would not cause the Southern Dynasty to perish. Instead, it could divert many conflicts within the Southern Dynasty and make many clans share the same hatred.
If the Southern Dynasty wins in just a few years and defeats the Northern Wei army at the cost of countless military casualties, then a large number of people from the Southern Dynasties will migrate towards the Northern Wei Dynasty, or a large number of Northern Wei dignitaries will come to surrender, and more problems may arise.
.
The Xiao family's foundation is still shallow and there is not enough time to prepare.
Timid, of course he is timid.
He has not liked fighting since he was a child, and he doesn't like to watch bloody events.
He didn't think it was shameful. Instead, he thought that the more timid the person, the better they could feel the coming chill of winter like an autumn insect.
After Meishan and before Zhongli, of course he hated Lin Yi very much and wished he could get rid of him quickly.
He felt that Lin Yi was overestimating his abilities and did not know how to love himself at all.
However, after Zhongli, he certainly knew what kind of status Lin Yi had in the military and civilians. He also knew very well how a war-god-like figure like Lin Yi could improve the morale of the Southern Dynasty army.
Such a person is enough to be worth hundreds of thousands of troops.
For such a pillar figure in the Southern Dynasty, it was certainly impossible for him to show strong hostility as before, so his attitude changed naturally.
He even paid a high price to ensure that Lin Wangbei could return to Jiankang City smoothly.
Even if Lin Yi doesn't understand him now, he is sure that Lin Yi will definitely accept his kindness in the future, and the relationship between him and Lin Yi will definitely improve.
In his opinion, his relationship with Lin Yi, and even the relationship between his imperial brother and Lin Yi, could determine the stability and strength of the entire Southern Dynasty in the future.
He understands Xiao Yan better than anyone else.
Xiao Yan's protection and nepotism come from his nature.
As long as the Southern Dynasty was stable and strong enough, and as long as Xiao Yan was still his imperial brother, no matter how many defeats he fought or how many negative comments he received from the people, he would still be the King of Linchuan, one person inferior to ten thousand people.
So what he really cares about is whether Xiao Yan's throne is stable.
At this time, the war between the Southern Dynasties and the Northern Wei Dynasty had already gained the upper hand. After Lin Yi went to Dangxiang, there was no movement at the Dangxiang border. Everything seemed to be moving in a better direction. However, he did not expect that such a news would come from him.
Two secret reports.
He did not doubt the authenticity of the contents of the two secret reports.
Lin Yi seemed to him to be a very unruly person, so there was a natural possibility that he could conquer Yuan Yan, but he also knew very well that Lin Yi was a true Southern Dynasty general.
A young man like Lin Yi can be forgiven even if he has some ambitions and some inappropriateness, considering the current situation.
It's just that Xiao Yan and him are indeed two different people.
If there was still room for maneuver, and if Xiao Yan was not furious, he would definitely ask for an interview as soon as possible, instead of just telling him and Wang Seng Bian the news about the two secret reports.
I'm afraid this means that I have told you about Lin Yitong's Northern Wei Dynasty, so you should not be able to talk nonsense about how I will deal with him in the future.
The most important thing is that he knows that the person practicing in Shuiyue Temple probably no longer wants to lie dormant. I am afraid that she has been waiting for this moment when Xiao Yan can no longer bear it.
The most important thing is that Shen Yue is no longer in the world, and Lin Yi is He Xiuxian's disciple and the master of the sword pavilion.
At the thought of this, he felt sorry for Xiao Sheng. After all, Xiao Sheng didn't know the true secret back then. He didn't know that the most terrifying thing was not Xiao Yan's anger, but the dormant desire of the man in Shuiyue Temple.
out.
"I lost my composure. You go back and treat your injuries first."
He waved his hand dejectedly and asked Xiao Sheng to leave. When Xiao Sheng said goodbye and opened the study door, he looked at the black lead-like sky outside the study and felt that the sky was about to fall. It gave him the feeling,
It's like the sky in the southern half has been suppressed.
…
A quiet courtyard stands in the middle of the water.
This quiet courtyard is octagonal in shape, with the courtyard wall going straight into the water, and only a stone bridge connecting it to the edge of the small lake.
This is a small artificially dug lake, and lotus flowers were not planted in it according to the preferences of the Jiankang elite.
There are only some slender aquatic plants in the water, but the various carps swimming in it are exceptionally fat.
There are many reed curtains in the quiet courtyard, and there are light ink landscape paintings on the curtains, one after another.
In the deepest part, there is a futon.
There is a figure on the futon who looks very tall even when he is sitting on it.
"Emperor, why are you angry?"
When Xiao Yan entered this quiet courtyard, the person sitting on the futon made a slightly joking noise.
This is a woman's voice.
But the voice seemed very majestic, even a little dangerous, a little domineering.
Those carps were originally very lively and even chased Xiao Yan's footsteps to play. However, the moment she made a sound, all of them seemed to be frozen in the ice water in the twelfth lunar month, motionless.
