Xia Shang instinctively wanted to reply, and what he wanted to say was naturally to appease his third uncle's worries.
But before the words were spoken, Xia Shang's thoughts changed and he suddenly felt that what his third uncle said was not that simple.
Since the third uncle understands the situation in the capital and his own deeds, he should naturally be able to understand the situation of Xia Shang and persuade Xia Shang to stop? Stay out of the matter? How is this possible?
Even Qin Huairou, who has no understanding of government affairs, can understand such a simple truth. How can a general who has been in the army for decades not understand it?
Therefore, what Third Uncle just said made no sense. He should have known that Xia Shang could no longer stop, but he still asked.
What is the purpose of all this?
Recall the sentence just now, saying that there is no one in the court that Xia Shang completely trusts. What does this mean?
Thinking about it, Xia Shang's eyes became complicated. He looked at his third uncle and asked tentatively: "Third uncle, is there something wrong with you?"
Qin Zhengtian's expression was very natural and he smiled slightly: "You really have a bright mind. You know that Uncle San will not talk to you alone just to persuade you to stop. Since we have already said this, what can you say about Uncle San?
For what purpose?"
Xia Shang thought for a while and his voice became very soft: "Third uncle, do you want me to rely on his connections in the New Taipei Army?
"This is just one of the aspects." Qin Zhengtian nodded, "The New Taipei Army is a force that cannot be ignored in Dahua. Before, it had always been firmly held in the hands of the Tai... no, the eldest prince. The former Dahua
Why is the prince so aggressive in the capital? The main reason is that he has the support of the New Taipei Army. You must know that the New Taipei Army is not only the strongest army under the control of the court, but also the closest army to the capital. What will happen if something goes wrong in the capital?
, the New Taipei Army can rush back to the capital within seven days.
Now, everyone is still carving up the power after the death of the eldest prince. At present, everyone only focuses on the forces in the capital, and no one pays attention to the New Taipei Army. With the relationship that the third uncle has been operating in New Taipei County for many years
, if we can get some support from within the imperial court, it will not be difficult to fully control the New Taipei Army."
"Use the New Taipei Army to deter the forces in the court?"
"That's right! Don't worry, Third Uncle and you are the same.
Family, as long as the third uncle has the power of the New Taipei Army, he will naturally become your pillar in the future. No matter what happens in the capital, as long as you say a word, the third uncle will immediately lead the New Taipei Army back to the capital. I think there are still many people in the capital.
No one dares to ignore the existence of the New Taipei Army."
Xia Shang was silent, clasping his fingers and wondering what he was thinking.
Qin Zhengtian's cousin was a little anxious and asked: "What are you hesitating about? How can such a powerful help fall into the hands of others? As long as you can invite the third uncle in the court to appoint the third uncle as the general of the New Taipei Army.
Third uncle can handle all the internal affairs of the New Taipei Army according to the orders."
"Third uncle, you really think highly of me. My son-in-law is just a mere official. He can't even enter the gate of Jinluan Palace, so how can he ask for an imperial edict?"
Qin Zhengtian continued to smile and did not take it seriously: "Xia Shang, my third uncle has said that he has learned about your deeds. This matter is not difficult for you. Although your official position is not high, you always have to ask for orders.
There will be a way. After all, yesterday I saw that you were able to bring your apprentice into the palace with a sword. This is not something that can be achieved through ordinary relationships."
Looking at his third uncle's expression, Xia Shang seemed a little embarrassed.
Let's not discuss whether the third uncle will help him wholeheartedly, but judging from the other party's current expression, it is obvious that he wants to use Xia Shang's influence in the court to help him get the position of commander of the New Taipei Army.
Logically speaking, everyone is a relative, and it is natural for them to help each other in court.
Seeing that Xia Shang had just met this third uncle and didn't know him at all, he didn't know what impact it would have if he really followed his wishes.
Qin Zhengtian was full of passion at first, but gradually he felt Xia Shang's hesitation, and his expression became much gloomier: "What? Even the third uncle can't believe it? The third uncle has watched Huairou grow up."
"It's not that I don't trust Third Uncle... It's just that Third Uncle just said that if I encounter anything in the capital, you will lead the New North Army back to the capital without saying a word..."
"This is absolutely true. I, Qin Zhengtian, will never stay out of it."
"Third uncle, my worry is not here. Everyone knows that the New Taipei Army is used to attack the Hu people in the North. If you bring the New Taipei Army back to the capital, how will the Northland border defense be done? I heard that although the New Taipei Army is powerful, the Hu
The intrusion from people is getting worse
The attacks became more and more frequent, and the people were worried about whether the New Taipei Army could resist the Hu people. At this time, the New Taipei Army could not act casually. It was not that the various forces in the capital did not focus on the New Taipei Army, but that everyone knew this
Logically speaking, no matter what happens in the capital, the New Taipei Army cannot be used."
Qin Zhengtian frowned slightly and laughed dryly: "That's true. The third uncle's words were too extreme just now. He just wanted to express his feelings. Don't worry, as long as the third uncle takes control of the New Taipei Army, he will definitely help you greatly in the future.
.”
Xia Shang nodded: "I can't tell you clearly in a day or two at this time. I can only help my third uncle to find out what the court is saying."
Although Qin Zhengtian was not satisfied with Xia Shang's answer, he also knew that he should not push Xia Shang too hard at this time, so he also showed a look of joy and said with a smile: "That's very good, then my third uncle will wait for you."
information."
"Third Uncle just said that this is just the first step...I wonder what Third Uncle has planned next?"
"The one who will be borrowing it from now on will naturally be our Qin family."
"Qin family?" Xia Shang frowned, "What does this mean?"
"Boy, it seems that you don't know anything about our Qin family! You must know that my grandfather, Huairou's grandfather, was a founding hero. Fifty years ago, the Qin family was one of the top families in the capital. You know?
Isn’t there no one you can trust completely now? The Qin family is right in front of you, why don’t you know how to make good use of it? "
"The Qin family...haven't they left the capital a long time ago?"
"That's Huairou's grandfather. My father doesn't want to stay in the capital because he wants to avoid the turmoil in the capital."
"Since the Qin family has chosen to avoid it, how can I..."
Before Xia Shang finished speaking, he was interrupted by his third uncle: "Today is different from the past! Back then, our Qin family was under pressure from the emperor and had to hand over everything and leave the capital. Now the situation in the capital has undergone earth-shaking changes.
The situation has changed, do you understand? Not only have I gained power in New Taipei County, but you have also become a prominent figure in the capital. At this moment, it is time for both of us to work hard to bring the Qin family back to the court.
Firstly, the Qin family can be your support, and secondly, it can also help the Qin family restore its former glory. This is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone, why not?"
