Chang'an.

In the Duke's Mansion of Jin State, it was extremely quiet at the moment.

Occasionally, soldiers on patrol passed by on the road, but they did not say a word. They looked at each other and nodded.

A faint light can be seen from the window of the inner room.

In the house, Yu Wenhu was sitting in front of the case, with many documents placed in front of him. A young man held the lamp for him, and knelt down beside him, watching him carefully handle government affairs.

This young man has a dignified appearance and extraordinary appearance. Even in front of Yu Wenhu, he never showed any timidity.

Yu Wenhu picked up another memorial, read it carefully, then put it down with a solemn expression, "That boy from the Yang family wants to keep filial piety for his father."

"Chu Dao, this is your tribe, what do you think?"

The young man's eyes instantly became a little complicated, and he said calmly: "My lord, this is just a way to avoid disaster and nourish hope."

"He also said that he hopes to avenge his father before inheriting the title."

The young man's face changed drastically, "In order to avoid disaster, can you go to this extent?"

Yu Wenhu smiled and said, "This Zhuzi is trying to earn himself the reputation of a filial son. He really does everything."

The young man's face was solemn, "Not only that, Yang Jian not only wants his own name, he also wants your name."

"oh?"

"Why do you say this?"

"If the lord really doesn't let him inherit the title, what will the people think? What will the princes think?"

"Just because you have a disagreement with your lord, you die in battle but you can't let your heirs inherit your title?"

"This will be extremely implicated and will alienate the Dukes!"

Yu Wenhu woke up with a start. He looked at the document in his hand again, but suddenly threw it on the ground. Those words of justice suddenly became very sinister, as if he wanted to eat people.

Yuwen Hu cursed: "What a fool! Do you want to continue to fight against me?!"

"Someone is coming!"

"Lord."

The young man spoke again. He looked at Yu Wenhu and said, "The Duke of Sui died for the sake of the country. No matter what, we cannot do anything to his heirs and relatives at this moment!"

"My lord should reject Yang Jian's petition, give him a bigger reward, reward the rest of his clan, and then let him return to Chang'an to observe filial piety for his father in Chang'an."

"Yang Jian has great ambitions and extraordinary talents. However, as long as he stays under your eyes, he will not be able to do anything. In a few years, he can be punished with other crimes."

The young man who accompanied Yu Wenhu was called Yang Su.

His father, Yang Fu, was the governor of Fenzhou in Zhou Dynasty. Like Yang Jian and others, the Yang Su family also said that they were Hongnong Yang.

Yang Su became famous at a young age and had extraordinary talents, so he was valued by Yu Wenhu, who recruited him as a planner, stayed by his side, and entrusted him with important tasks.

Yu Wenhu was more persuasive. Hearing what Yang Sudu said, he smiled and nodded.

"Okay, let's do as you say."

Yu Wenhu then looked at other documents.

The more Yu Wenhu looked, the more depressed he became, and his face became uglier. The situation everywhere was not very good.

The previous battle had squandered all the national power that Yu Wenhu had accumulated over the years. Twenty-four military offices were dispatched together, spending millions of manpower and material resources, but in the end there was no result at all, and they were beaten so miserably.

The memorials in various places are reporting sorrow.

They all say that they need support from temples, and they all say that they need to be exempted from some taxes.

Yu Wenhu rubbed his eyes and sighed.

He put these documents aside for the time being, ignoring them, and then looked at some memorials about the front line.

They are mainly from Wei Xiaokuan's memorials.

"Liu Taozi officially established the military mansion!"

Yu Wenhu's face looked a little ugly, "This little thief!! He still uses my military system of Dazhou!!"

"Look"

Yu Wenhu handed the memorial in his hand to Yang Su. Yang Su was very knowledgeable in military matters. He picked up the memorial and read it carefully.

"Hu Luxian's Lingzhou Military Palace, Yao Xiong's Shuozhou Military Palace, Zhang Heizhu's Youzhou Military Palace, Pi Jinghe's Yingzhou Military Palace, Kou Liu's Jizhou Military Palace, and the exposed Bingzhou Military Palace,

Hu Luguang’s Hengzhou Military Mansion, Qingzhou Military Mansion that defeated Duo Luogu, and Zhaozhou Military Mansion that vomited Xiyue.”

Yang Su glanced at it for a few times and handed the memorial to Yu Wenhu.

"My lord, even the enemies have begun to imitate our military system. Doesn't this just show the excellence of our military system?"

Yu Wenhu was still a little worried, "It was already worrying when Liu Taozi had two armies under his command. What should we do if there are ten armies?"

Yang Su calmly replied: "Although Liu Taozi is strong, the elite soldiers and generals under our command are not weaker than them."

"We have the 24th Military Mansion, which Liu Taozi cannot easily catch up with."

"My lord, don't worry. Liu Taozi is openly rebelling against Qi. If the north and south cannot work together in the future, we will defeat them one by one."

Yu Wenhu seemed a little relieved and nodded.

"A Xian said the same thing. He said that we should not easily fight the enemy at the moment. We should wait for the opportunity, develop ourselves, and accumulate more food and grass. As long as we can maximize the role of the Twenty-fourth Army and have a head-on confrontation, we don't have to worry about Liu Taozi.

"

"On the contrary, it's Wei Xiaokuan. Reading too many of his memorials is really worrying!"

"Your Majesty, I don't know why he is so afraid of Liu Taozi!!"

"Be timid before fighting, maybe we should let Yu Wenxian replace Wei Xiaokuan!"

"No!"

Yang Su spoke again, and he said seriously: "Although Duke Qi is brave, he is young and inexperienced after all. Duke Yun seems timid, but in fact he is mature. He will not show his flaws easily when facing Liu Taozi."

"Gong Yun probably won't be able to defeat Liu Taozi, but he won't lose to him, at least he won't be completely defeated."

"The Duke of Qi may defeat Liu Taozi, but he may also return in defeat."

"Based on the current situation, it would be most appropriate for Duke Yun to be stationed here."

Yuwenhu once again listened to the other party's advice.

He looked out the window, the sky was completely bright now.

Yu Wenhu didn't sleep all night, and he felt a little dizzy and extremely tired. Yang Su also noticed this, so he ordered the food officials to come in to serve him, and he said goodbye and left.

Yu Wenhu ate a little. He didn't have a big appetite, and he didn't like to eat too extravagantly.

Yu Wenhu has relatively high requirements for himself. He doesn't like to build luxurious mansions, nor does he dress excessively. He is relatively frugal in all aspects. However, most of his cronies cannot do this, especially his sons.

, they compare with each other, their food and drink expenses exceed the standard, and no one dares to treat them.

After simply eating something, Yu Wenhu lay down to rest.

But he couldn't rest for too long. Not long after he closed his eyes, someone came to him.

Yu Wenhu had no choice but to stand up and greet him.

The person who came was Li An, a doctor under the Ministry of Food, who was one of Yu Wenhu's confidants.

Li An sat in front of Yu Wenhu and whispered about the situation in the palace.

"Yu Wenzhi has been in and out of the palace frequently recently to meet with the emperor."

"He went to see Yu Wenxian yesterday and came out soon."

Li An whispered: "My lord, after all, Yu Wenxian is close to His Majesty. You trust him too much. You can send a few people to keep an eye on him and understand what they are talking about."

Yu Wenhu was stunned and looked at Li An, "He is close to the emperor? Could it be that I am not?"

Li An was stunned, "He is your Majesty's brother."

"Am I not?"

"I"

Although Yu Wenyong treated Yu Wenhu as a junior, Yuwen Hu was indeed Yu Wenyong's cousin.

Li An didn't know what to say. Yu Wenhu laughed and said, "Don't worry, both your Majesty and A Xian are very respectful to me and will not do anything inappropriate."

"It's just this Yu Wenzhi"

Yu Wenhu's eyes gradually turned evil.

"This guy used to get close to me and wanted to get an official position. I was about to appoint him as a general, but after I appointed Yu Wenxian, he began to alienate me and said things that were not conducive to me outside."

"If he doesn't correct himself, then let him accompany his brothers."

Li An trembled all over and hurriedly lowered his head.

"Is there anything else?"

"Your Majesty wants to see you and says something happened to the Queen Mother."

Yu Wenhu stood up helplessly, rubbed his eyes, and looked outside, "I'm extremely tired. I really don't want to go out."

"If my lord is tired, it won't be too late to go tomorrow."

"Forget it, because of my fault, the country suffered losses. If we are not diligent at this moment, how can we defeat the powerful enemy?"

Yu Wenhu sat on the carriage and drove towards the palace.

Sitting in the car, Yu Wenhu looked outside in a daze.

Li An sat next to him, not daring to speak.
