Chapter 468 The garrison commander, questioning
Chunyi went out until the evening when she came back. Yun Yue looked up from a pile of books dizzyly and found that there was only the afterglow of the sunset outside the window. She didn't know when the lights were already in the room.
"Spring?" Yun Yue shouted, and someone immediately responded outside.
Chunyi came in with a bowl of hot tremella porridge and said with a smile: "Madam, I just saw you carefully read the account book and didn't bother you. This was made by Butler Lei, who asked me to make it for you to moisten your mouth. The head of the family will come back later."
Yun Yue signaled Chunyi to put down the porridge and closed her eyes tiredly, "How are you asking about the things you asked?"
Chunyi pondered and said, "Madam, I have all found out. The head of the family has been with the prefect for the past few days, as if he is discussing the important matter. Another thing is that I heard from the servant that this Chaozhou is completely different from our Kuizhou!"
"Oh?" Yun Yue opened her eyes in surprise.
Chunyi hurriedly said, "Sites like Jizhou and Kuizhou are dominant. Although the aristocratic families occupy one place, most of them are sensitive to the status, and the other is worried that the emperor is afraid of it. Therefore, those aristocratic families generally have the foundation of their establishment in business or like the Yun family's Nangong family. Only the Ye family is special and has their own private soldiers in Shuzhou, but it is only one thousand.
But Chaozhou is different. Chaozhou is in the past, and Chaozhou is in the border of Qilan Kingdom. After Chaozhou, it is the Lorraine Grassland, and then it is the Huns. The Lorraine Grassland, as the dividing line between the two countries, belongs to the three-independent zone. On one side is the garrison of Qilan Kingdom, and on the other side is the garrison of the Huns.
The garrison on Qi Languo's side was the commander of General Ke Enyang on the surface, but in fact he was in the hands of the head of the family. Only Liu Feng Leibo and the others knew about this."
Yun Yue's pupils shrank and she whispered in disbelief: "How could they tell you such an important thing? And the head of the family didn't say anything to me."
Yun Yue just felt something was wrong. If Gu Chen really had troops in his hands, he wouldn't have kept them from her.
Chunyi shook her head innocently and said, "Madam, you have to ask the head of the family about this, but this was a secret before, but now it is not a secret, so the Butler Lei told me."
The two were talking, and Gu Chen happened to come in from outside. Yun Yue looked at him without saying a word.
Gu Chen was originally smiling, thinking that he would be able to hold his little wife when he came back, so he would be so beautiful. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, he was poured with cold water by Yun Yue's reaction, "What's wrong? Who is upsetting you?"
Gu Chen sat down directly next to Yun Yue, looking worried.
Yun Yue took a deep breath and then asked questioningly: "Junyi just said that you were in charge of the garrison in Chaozhou? Why have you never heard you mention it before?"
A smile flashed in Gu Chen's eyes and he said to himself: "It turns out that the wife blamed her husband for not telling her in time! But this matter is no longer a secret. If the wife cared enough for her husband, she would definitely know, so why should she tell you for her husband?"
"You... are so stinky and beautiful! Who wants to care about you?" Yun Yue blushed and slapped Gu Chen's restless claws off.
Chunyi had already consciously withdrawn, and when he went out, he didn't forget to bring the door with him.
Gu Chen said with satisfaction: "You are a good girl. You are a good girl. You are also loyal. I know everything about the tribe and the land today. I was just thinking about a small punishment and a big warning. Since they are trying to die, don't blame me for not giving them face!"
Yun Yue didn't take those things seriously at all. She grabbed Gu Chen's collar and asked, "Don't change the topic, you haven't mentioned the matter of being in charge of the garrison just now!"
When Gu Chen mentioned this, he was obviously not very interested and said indifferently: "Actually it's nothing. When the late emperor was still there, I was his secret guard. He was in charge of some shameful forces and eliminated many dissidents for him. Otherwise, why did you think the late emperor stand out from the princes so quickly?
However, he trusted me and was also guarding against me. When the throne was firmly settled, he took back the forces. I didn't care about those things. He would pay back if he wanted me. He was very obedient. Seeing that I was like this, Murong Xiaotian felt that he was too much. It happened that the Liu family was in Chaozhou and was close to the border. Murong Xiaotian asked me to help him guard the border and hand over some of the garrison to me.
However, it was secretly, and the resident commander on the surface still did not change. Later, because of the alchemy, Murong Xiaotian distrustd me again, and he took back that part of the force. Later, I had to hide from Song Xiangrui to get rid of Murong Xiaotian's targeting.
Now the emperor is Murong Yan, and he is much better than him. At least he is open-minded and has a diligent and loving heart for the people. He knows the truth that people don’t need to be used and people don’t doubt them. He trusts you very much, and even I have benefited from you. He was appointed by him to manage the garrison in Chaozhou.
I have been training soldiers in the military camp for a while and took the opportunity to observe them. Once I found out there was a problem, I would arrest them and interrogate them as soon as I found out. Therefore, there were many things. In addition, I was in charge of the garrison. To a certain extent, my official position was larger than that of the prefect, and this was my territory. When the prefect saw Tian'er invite me over, I had to sell him his face to go there, right?"
When Yun Yue heard this, she was helpless, "This military power has always been sensitive. Since you hold military power now, you must be cautious in your actions and cannot leave any words to others."
Gu Chen kept hiking into Yun Yue's arms and said coquettishly: "Madam, since I am so worried about me, I just don't want this military power!"
"Hmm?" Yun Yue looked at Gu Chen in shock and frowned: "Are you a toy in front of military power? If you want it, just don't want it!"
"Of course not!" Gu Chen turned over and sat up, saying seriously: "In fact, I don't like this hot potato at all. It's just that the new emperor has just succeeded to the throne and there are not many people available around me. I barely considered a trustworthy person. The new emperor handed over the military power to me. However, he has always had a look of his husband. When the emperor cultivates his own power, he will definitely replace me. Instead of doing this, it's better to take the initiative to sell it! I have already thought about it. I will send a letter to the emperor in the future, urging the emperor to send someone to take over the garrison. On the one hand, it's to prove that he is not greedy for power, on the other hand, it's like the emperor showing loyalty, and on the third hand, I can throw this hot potato, killing multiple shots, and my wife said okay?"
Yun Ye was so angry that he had no temper by Gu Chen, so he could only shake his head helplessly, "Forget it, just know the measure yourself. You're so late to come back, so you're hungry!"
The afterglow outside the window has completely dimmed, and the servants in the mansion are almost ready to change shifts and rest.
