The rain was still falling, and even the only sound left in the wind was the sound of rain.
Fu Yi knocked on the table lightly, but did not stand up like Shen Jungao. He just turned his head slightly and looked at the scene outside the window without saying a word.
Shen Jungao waved his sleeves: "Brother Fu, do you still have any hesitation?"
Fu Yi was not in a hurry to answer this question. He still stared out the window, watching the banana leaves outside the window swaying in the wind and rain.
He didn't know why such words would be said by someone like Shen Jungao. This made Fu Yi a little surprised for a moment, because this should not be the Shen Jungao he knew. But then he thought about it, he came here to find Shen Jungao.
The reason why I wanted to drink tea with him and listen to the sound of rain was because I wanted Shen Jungao's answer just now.
Shen Jungao gave Fu Yi the answer he wanted, but Fu Yi felt empty in his heart.
Perhaps it is because the trace of friendship and morality that I have always wanted to protect has disappeared at this moment... Although Li Xinchen's contribution to the East Palace is obvious to all, the East Palace also supports Li Xinchen a lot, and the two parties can barely count as two.
clear.
Apart from this, Fu Yi couldn't find any reason to convince himself.
I don't know how long it took, but Fu Yi whispered: "Brother Shen is right."
Shen Jungao turned his head slightly and looked at Fu Yi. Fu Yi's waist was slightly stooped, and he seemed to be a little older. He no longer looked like the high-spirited Fu Yi.
"The life of the world is most boring." Shen Jungao couldn't help but sigh lowly.
Fu Yi people are not old, but their hearts are already a little old.
And why is it not the case for myself?
————————————————————-
"Please come in," Li Xingchen whispered, "I am waiting in the meeting hall, no, in the study."
Li Ping hurriedly responded, and Li Xingchen looked again at the famous sword in his hand.
The four words "Visitor from the North" are written on the nameplate, with a bit of freehand brushwork. It can be imagined that the other person is also a free and easy-going person. Li Xingchen knows where this person comes from. The agreement he and Wei Xiaokuan reached before,
Later, Wei Xiaokuan would report to the imperial court to send capable personnel to Li Xinchen's side as liaison envoys.
There are a lot of talents in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and those who can stand out from them and be favored by Yang Jian and Yu Wenxian, two powerful men of the day, must be more than just ordinary people. Especially now that Li Xingchen doesn't know the attitude of the Northern Zhou court, he naturally has to fight.
Have enough energy to deal with it.
As soon as Li Xingchen entered the study, a middle-aged man dressed in an ordinary scholar's long robe walked in under the leadership of Li Ping. This middle-aged man looked dusty, but his face had neat features, especially his eyes.
There was a bit of a bit of chill in it, and you knew without even thinking that he must be someone who has experienced battles for a long time.
When he saw Li Xingchen, he was the first to offer his hand: "Hongnong Yang Su, I have met General Li."
Li Xinchen suddenly heard the name "Yang Su" and was startled for a moment, because he knew this name and its owner very well. However, after thinking about it, Li Xinchen was relieved.
Looking at the entire Northern Zhou Dynasty, Yang Su was probably the only one who could be recognized by both Yang Jian and Yu Wenxian.
Yang Su has always been on Yang Jian's side, and has always helped Yang Jian with suggestions. In name, he has always been Yang Jian's man. Yang Jian naturally trusts him and has recommended Yang Su to the court many times. Later, Yang Su followed Yu Wenxian.
In attacking the Northern Qi Dynasty, he took the lead several times and made great achievements. Not only did he help Yu Wenxian find the enemy's weakness at a critical moment in the battle, so that Yu Wenxian could advance straight in, and finally defeated the main force of the Northern Qi Dynasty, allowing the Northern Zhou Dynasty to defeat this old enemy.
Therefore, Yu Wenxian was surprisingly not disgusted with this guy who came from the camp of political opponents. Instead, he asked Yang Su for his opinions many times, which made many generals and officials on Yu Wenxian's side treat Yang Su politely.
This is why Yang Su came to represent the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Although this person was caught in the middle, he could accurately express the meanings of both sides, so he was naturally the most fair and suitable candidate.
As for Yang Su, Li Xingchen did not want to become his opponent. In history, Yang Su can really be said to be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. Although Yang Su has experienced too many ups and downs, he has also been defeated several times because of his arbitrariness.
He was punished, but in the end he stood firm in the political arena. He could really say that he used his actual actions to prove that he was a qualified civil servant.
It is not so easy to be an opponent with someone who has such a thorough understanding of the world's situation. In history, it was Yang Su who was the first to realize the importance of going down the river from Bashu, so he took the initiative to request to enter Bashu and preside over military training.
, built warships, and finally went down the river to break through Nanchen's Jingzhou defense line, and blocked Nanchen's main force in Jiankang Mansion.
It can be said that the army led by Yang Guang captured Jiankang Prefecture, and the places outside Jiankang Prefecture were basically under the attack of Yang Su.
This person's insight into the situation and his understanding of the topography of the world made Li Xinchen have no choice but to be careful. It can even be said that the path Li Xinchen took before was to go against Yang Su's attack and destroy Nanchen, gradually filling in the
Those mistakes that Nan Chen had exposed in another time and space.
It was obvious that Yang Su was also sizing up the young man in front of him. Before coming, he rushed to Fangling to meet Wei Xiaokuan and asked Wei Xiaokuan for his opinion. However, Yang Su still did not expect that Li Xingchen standing in front of him looked like this.
This young man is not as strong as he imagined, nor is he so heroic, but at the first sight of him, Yang Su felt a slight chill in his back. He has dealt with too many people, including those who are currently in the court of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
Two pillars - Yang Jian and Yu Wenxian, but he had to admit that the young man in front of him was one of the few people who gave him a sense of crisis.
Li Xingchen calmly made an invitation gesture: "I have admired the name of Hongnong Yang for a long time, and General Yang is a leader. It is really an honor for Li to meet him today."
"Yang is not talented and cannot deserve to be called General Li like that. The general can just call him 'Chu Dao' (Yang Su's nickname)." Yang Su said hurriedly without being condescending or condescending.
Li Xingchen laughed and said, "I am a guest from afar. Since Brother Chu Dao has said so, I might as well obey my order out of respect. Come on, Brother Chu Dao, please sit down. There is good Jiangnan new tea here. I would like to invite Brother Chu Dao to taste it."
After a pause, Li Xingchen thought of something: "Yes, a younger Chu Dao brother, Chu Dao brother can just call someone by his cousin."
Yang Su was not polite this time and sat down directly: "Brother Shizhong is polite. General Wei has already reported to the court one by one what brother Shizhong and General Wei discussed before. After discussion, the court decided to send a certain person as an envoy to talk to Shizhong.
Brother Zhong, let’s discuss the next arrangements.”
As he spoke, Yang Su took out a token from his sleeve: "This is my Majesty's token. If Brother Shizhong doesn't believe it, you can look at this token."
