Chapter 46: Uncle is so fast

In fact, at this point, Li Xin and the emperor or the royal family are already disunited and it is difficult to trust each other anymore. The reason why the emperor let Li Xin go out of the capital is naturally not because Li Xin gave him real thunder yesterday afternoon, but because more than 100,000 Southwest Army in the southwest have broken through the Hanzhong defense line and can leave Shu at any time.

The imperial court now wants to deal with these more than 100,000 people. At least half of the imperial guards have to send at least half of the imperial guards to fight the west so that they can control the situation. However, the imperial guards of the two battalions of the imperial guards of the capital have sent four Zhechong Prefectures to the north. If half of them are sent to fight the west, not to mention whether the treasury can support it or not, then the defense of the capital will fall into an unprecedented emptiness.

If Li Xin is released from Beijing, he can stabilize the southwest, and at least the situation in the southwest will not deteriorate. After another two or three years, the court will also equipped the sky thunder on a large scale, and it will be impossible for a corner of the southwest to compete with a unified dynasty.

This is Emperor Zhao's delaying strategy. Moreover, the situation in the north is indeed not optimistic. If Li Xin went north to ease or even resolve the deadlock in the north, it would naturally not be a bad thing. Even if it didn't work, it would not be worse.

You can't expect General Ji Yong in Jizhou City to sweep the Xianbei troops in one fell swoop, right?

Hearing the emperor's words, Li Xin smiled and said, "So, I am here to thank Your Majesty."

The emperor rubbed his sore eyes, then looked at Li Xin and sighed, "Teacher is going to the northern border, if he can retreat to the enemy, he will take his aunt and several younger brothers and sisters back to the capital. You will also come back to the capital to live. After all, our two families are relatives. If you have any questions, you can sit down and talk slowly."

Speaking of this, the emperor paused and continued, "As for the matter in the southwest, whether they establish a country or separatist, it has nothing to do with you. In the future, the court and the southwest rely on their abilities, so the teacher will not interfere in it."

"I grew up with my aunt since I was a child, and now I'm not going to make a fuss like this."

Li Xin smiled silently and bowed to the emperor.

"It's not too late to talk about these things when I come back from the north."

Sometimes the emperor's "golden words and jade words" are unbelievable. At that time, Zhu Laosi said that he would share the world with King Ning.

Besides, even if Li Xin can hide in the capital and be the second Ye Sheng, the Mu family in the southwest, Li Shuo, Zhao Jia, and even the Ye family who have already broken their trust in the emperor will be liquidated one by one in the future.

Although Li Xin's wish is to be rich and honored for a lifetime, behind such wealth and honor is the dry bones of countless relatives and friends, Li Xin will not take it.

He looked up at the sky and bowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty, if you delay some more hours, it will be noon, so you won't be able to walk far today."

The emperor smiled and said, "That won't delay the teacher's journey."

"This time we go north, the journey is long, and it is too dangerous for the teacher to go alone. I have prepared four hundred Yulin Guards for the teacher and the guards will go north."

Four hundred people are in the Yulin Guard, which is the entire Duwei camp.

The emperor waved his hand, and a black-clothed Yulin Guard from the lieutenant camp slowly walked out of the East City Gate.

Li Xin did not feel surprised about this. Sending troops to protect and monitor along the way was the most basic method. What unexpectedly was that the people of the Emperor Sect were actually Yulin Guards, not Qianniu Guards or Inner Guards who were closer to him.

Mr. Li bowed to the emperor and thanked him with a smile and said, "Does Your Majesty also want to appoint a deputy general to me?"

"The deputy general does not have one."

Emperor Yuan Zhao clapped his hands again, and a middle-aged man in an imperial uniform walked out of the crowd and clasped his fists at the emperor: "Xie Dai has seen His Majesty, and has seen Mr. Li."

It was Xie Dai from Xie family in Shanyin.

Four years ago, a case of Chen Yan broke out in the capital. Several auxiliary ministers colluded to support the sixth prince ascend the throne and depose the current emperor. At that time, Li Xin returned to the capital to turn the tide. However, because of this, the emperor's younger brother, the sixth prince, was forced out of the capital and fostered at Xie Dai's home in Shanyin.

Because of this, Xie Dai followed Li Xin's advice and resigned from the Yulin Guard's errand and turned to the Imperial Guard. After more than four years, the emperor's cousin had become a Zhechong commander under the command of Hou Jingde, the Imperial Guard. He was in charge of more than 10,000 people in a Zhechong Mansion and became a senior general of the Great Jin Dynasty.

The emperor smiled at Li Xin: "I heard the teacher say that he admired me as a relative more than once. Yesterday, I discussed with several prime ministers at the Shangshu Desk. This time, I arranged Xie Dai by the teacher's side. How about being a military supervisor?"

The military supervisor... is very different from the deputy general.

Although the deputy general can control the power of the chief general to a certain extent, he still has to obey the orders of the chief general in any case. However, the supervisor is different. The supervisor is on the same level as the chief general, and not only has the full strength to reach Tianting, but can even overthrow the general orders of the chief general!

Li Xin sighed helplessly.

"Since the court has made this decision, I naturally have no objection."

The emperor nodded: "Since that's the case, I won't disturb the teacher from going north."

He looked back at Xie Dai and said in a deep voice: "Xie Dai, you are now transferred to the army supervisor. Follow the Taifu to the north. The four hundred Yulin Guards along the way are under your command and deployment. After you arrive in the north, you will follow the Taifu to be a army supervisor."

Xie Dai was about the same age as Li Xin, only one or two years younger than Li Xin, and now he was about thirty years old. He looked at Grand Tutor Li with a complicated expression, and then bowed respectfully: "I, please obey the imperial edict."

The emperor nodded.

"Remember, I'll protect the safety of the Grand Tutor along the way. If my teacher makes any mistakes on the road, you guys don't want to survive!"

Xie Dai quickly lowered his head.

"yes!"

Emperor Yuan Zhao nodded and looked back at Li Xin. Because he was too sleepy, he couldn't help but yawn: "Are the teacher satisfied with this arrangement?"

Mr. Li nodded with a smile.

"Thank you for your kindness."

After a few more polite words, the emperor finally returned to the palace surrounded by Xiao Zheng and Xiao Huai and others. Li Xin turned over his horse, first glanced at Xie Dai, then looked at the familiar black-clothed Yulin Guard, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go!"

Because I had to hurry on the road, the court was very generous this time and equipped each Yulin Guard with horses. More than 400 horses ran on the official road, with dust flying.

Xie Dai followed Li Xin on a horse, and the two of them almost walked side by side. Because the sound of running was too loud, he said loudly: "Taifu, take care of him on the road!"

Li Xin glanced back at this guy and ignored him.

The group quickly turned from the East City Gate to the official road to the north. Along the way, Li Xin asked them to rush forward, but they didn't even stop for lunch. After most of the day, they ran about a hundred miles. The sky slowly darkened. Seeing that it was getting dark, the group prepared to rest at the inn ahead for a night.

They had more than 400 people. As soon as they lived near this inn, they saw dozens of horses in the horse shed at the Gyeonggi Station, and some strong men were sitting in the yard of the inn to rest.

One of the middle-aged men, who were particularly big, immediately met Li Xin and others when they arrived, came forward and said, "Uncle Master is here so fast. He left one day later than us, and he caught up directly!"

Xie Dai turned over and dismounted, bowed his head to Ye Mao.

"The last general Xie Dai has met Duke Chen."

When Ye Mao heard this name, he looked at Xie Dai in surprise and smiled: "You are polite to you, uncle Xie."

Xie Dai looked up and saw dozens of big men behind Ye Mao, and Ye Mao also caught a glimpse of a reorganized captain of the Yulin Guard not far from Xie Dai!
