What kind of person is Li Liang, the Marquis of Yecheng?

On the way back to Yingchuan County, Zhao Yu was thinking about this issue.

In short, during this entire ‘Princess incident’, Zhao Yu was very disappointed with the performance of Yecheng Hou.

First of all, when he learned that his daughter was almost killed, the Marquis of Yecheng could still stay in his mansion steadily, and only sent two sons to Yingchuan to visit his daughter. Just this, how can you talk about loving your daughter?

Secondly, when the two brothers of the East Palace and the Third Prince deliberately framed their daughter, the evidence, and even when Zhao Yu, the Yingchuan commander, was willing to testify, the Marquis of Yecheng did not go to Handan to make a big fuss, and it was still his eldest son Li Feng who came forward.

Combining these two things, Zhao Yu's evaluation of the Marquis of Yecheng was not just cowardly or cowardly?

But such a cowardly and cowardly Marquis of Yecheng turned a blind eye to his daughter, Princess Xiangrui, who insisted on returning to Yingchuan County with him, Zhao Yu, and even gave her daughter with a smile, which made Zhao Yu feel incredible.

What does this Yecheng Hou want to do? He wants to throw his daughter’s troubles to him and drag him Zhao Yu into the water?

Isn't it necessary? Because Zhao Yu has taken the initiative to step into this muddy water - his invitation to the Yecheng Hou family this time is to show that Zhao Yu will stand on the side of the Yecheng Hou family?

For this reason, he risked being misunderstood.

Look, the wife of Yecheng Hou misunderstood. During the banquet in the past two days, she looked at him with her mother-in-law's eyes from beginning to end. Before he left, she even said to him solemnly: "My daughter, who is not good enough, please ask the general."

Zhao Yu couldn't hear the profound meaning behind this sentence, but Xue Ao had warned him not to make a promise for the time being, so Zhao Yu just said that in a vain and slight manner.

Under such circumstances, is it necessary for the Marquis of Yecheng to pull him Zhao Yu into the water again? Could it be that the wife of Yecheng Hou did not get angry with him in private?

Zhao Yu didn't believe it.

However, the Yecheng Hou still looked like "I don't know anything" and watched his only daughter run away with a strange man with a smile.

What's more, when the wife of Yecheng Hou held Zhao Yu's hand and told Zhao Yu privately that she would send Li Qin to Yingchuan to bring some food and food to her daughter in a few days, Yecheng Hou also stood by, still without any indication.

Let’s talk about the wife of the Marquis of Yecheng first. Zhao Yu dares to bet that the wife sent her second son to Yingchuan in a few days, which is definitely not as simple as bringing food and food to her daughter. Zhao Yu can still see this.

Then the question arises, does the Marquis of Yecheng know about this?

If he knew, then what consideration did he acquiesced to his wife's decision?

The more Zhao Yu thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and at the same time, he became more and more excited.

He felt that he might have underestimated the Marquis of Yecheng, the sixth prince with a big belly, was probably not as cowardly and cowardly as he showed. His cowardly and cowardly might be just to show someone or two people. As for the purpose, it might be to protect himself or protect his family.

After all, he is also the brother of the Eastern Palace and the Third Prince, and he is ethically qualified to inherit the throne. Based on the cruelty of fighting for power within the royal families of all dynasties, the sixth prince deliberately showed a "harmless" side, which was obviously a clever move.

As for what he thinks in his heart, it is unknown.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel a little excited - perhaps his previous plan had not failed.

Unfortunately, Grand Master Chen and Xue Ao have set their sights on him at present.

The good news is that these two people are not clear about his real intentions, mistakenly thinking that he just wants to take revenge on the East Palace and the third prince, and Xue Ao even more so, mistakenly thinking that he had happened to the stupid princess, and even gave him advice and advised him to wait for a few years, and then say it after he died of the emperor of Jin. The dignified General of the Chariot and Cavalry said this, and Zhao Yu was also convinced.

The bad news is that although Grand Master Chen and Xue Ao both misunderstood Zhao Yu's intention to a certain extent, Zhao Yu's intention to instigate internal disputes in the royal family cannot be implemented for the time being. At least he cannot come forward, otherwise Grand Master Chen would never stand idly by.

If he annoyed the old man and asked the old man to transfer him to his army as a general in anger, Zhao Yu would be completely blind.

It is precisely because of this incident, coupled with Zhao Yu's previous disappointment with the Marquis of Yecheng, that he decided to give up instigating the Marquis of Yecheng. However, he did not expect that this time, the Marquis of Yecheng and his family took the initiative to come over...

『…Li Qin, who has been to Yingchuan for a few days, is the key.

Sitting on the war horse, Zhao Yu thought excitedly.

It would be great if it could be confirmed from Li Qin that his father, Marquis of Yecheng, was not as harmless as he showed - although he had promised Grand Master Chen and Xue Ao that he would not revenge on the East Palace and the Third Prince, if Marquis of Yecheng came forward to take the initiative to fight against the East Palace and the Third Prince, it would have nothing to do with him.

When he was unable to formally come forward to help the Yecheng Hou family, he could at least help the Yecheng Hou family to shaking flags and shouting and borrowing some power for them - with his current status, as well as his relationship with the Grand Master Chen and the Five Tigers of the Chen family, even if he just talks to the Yecheng Hou family, the impact will undoubtedly be very huge, and it may even affect the throne competition and change the government and the opposition's prediction of the successors of the throne.

Zhao Yu became more and more excited the more he thought about it, but at this moment, he suddenly heard a shout: "Zhou Hu, Zhou Hu!"

“…”

The excited mood quickly faded from Zhao Yu's heart. He grabbed the reins in his hand. He pursed his lips and turned his horse's head, and slowly came to the carriage where Princess Xiangrui was riding.

At this time, the princess held her cheeks with her forehand and sat by the car window, saying to him with a little complaining tone: "Zhou Hu, I am thirsty and want to drink honey."

Drink honey...Who are you? Yuan Highway?

After complaining in his heart, Zhao Yu said calmly: "Where can I go to get honey from this wilderness?"

Hearing this, the princess was immediately unhappy and pouted and shouted, "I don't care. I want to drink honey, I want to drink honey."

As he spoke, there was a strange thud in the carriage, as well as the persuasion of the palace maid Xin and Ning Niang. It was obvious that the princess in a bad mood were mostly kicking the inner wall of the carriage to vent their anger.

Seeing this, the blue veins on Zhao Yu's forehead leaped and said sinisterly: "You can still be like a ok... I will keep the account of the past two days. When I arrive in Xuchang, I will see how I deal with you."

The princess who was still playing willful suddenly turned her face when she heard this, and her little face turned pale and said, "What do you... do you want to do? You promised my mother and take good care of me..."

"Ah, I will 'take care of' you."

Zhao Yu laughed sinisterly, deliberately twitching the word "care" and gritted his teeth, and at the same time he deliberately or unintentionally raised the horse whip in his right hand.

Suddenly, the princess's face faded from blood, and she pulled the window cloth up in a flash.

Immediately, her panicked voice came from the carriage: "Go back to Yecheng, come back to Yecheng quickly, I want to go back to Yecheng..."

“…”

Zhao Yu shook his head speechlessly.

At this time, the princess has changed a lot compared to last year..."

Zhao Yu laughed.

To be fair, compared with Princess Xiangrui who went to Yingchuan County last year, the princess has indeed changed a lot now. At least she will not do anything humiliating like getting off the carriage on a stool. Her tone of the tone of the Takagi group of palace guards has also changed a lot. Although she still had a tone of drinking most of the time, it cannot be denied that she already knew how to respect people. In addition, she did not treat all the palace guards in terms of food, accommodation and rewards. Therefore, the palace guards of the Takagi group of palace guards are willing to continue to act as the princess's guards.

But the problem is that the stupid princess' attitude towards him and Zhao Yu has not changed at all, and even the princess is increasingly "targeting" him.

Although this targeting was not a target of hatred, it was deliberately provoking and teasing him like the Marquis of Yecheng's mansion two days ago, but it still made Zhao Yu feel uncomfortable all over.

He didn't know what men and women do, but he didn't know what the princess deliberately provoked him and teased him behind him.

In short, this was not a good thing to him.

Three days later, Zhao Yu and his group arrived in Liang County.

Two days before his and his group arrived in Liang County, Chu Yan had led the Yingchuan County Army, Wang Xun and Zhang Qi, two Liang County soldiers, arrived in Liang City first, and then stationed troops outside the city, waiting for Zhao Yu to meet with them.

When he learned that Zhao Yu had arrived in Liangcheng, Liangcheng Commander Dong An went out to greet him. His attitude became more and more harmonious than before.

This is no wonder, because when Zhao Yu submitted a report to the court before, he did not forget to mention the contributions of Liangcheng Duke Dong An, Jiyin Duke Tian Jin, Liang County Scholar Wang Xun, and Zhang Qi. Perhaps the court also sent someone to commend Dong An. Therefore, this Duke Dong was very grateful to Zhao Yu's favor and must entertain Zhao Yu with great affection.

Zhao Yu refused a few times, but finally agreed. After all, he felt that if he wanted to make a fortune in Jin State, the relationship between Grand Master Chen and the Five Hu of Chen Party was not enough. He also had to make friends with some people. If he could use it in the future, he wouldn't say it for now. At least he could have a good reputation - if the reputation is good, who would suspect that he was actually the "Shen Hu" who wanted to overthrow Jin State?

However, the princess was not interested in Dong An's invitation at all. Zhao Yu let her take Ning Niang and others into Yecheng to wander. Anyway, there were not only Gaomu, Gong Jiao and others watching, as well as Wang Pin, Xu Rao and other wolves. Zhao Yu believed that there would be no surprises.

The sphere of influence between the Eastern Palace and the Third Prince should not be so large.

The next day, Zhao Yu led his army to bid farewell to Yingchuan County. The commander Dong An took Wang Xun, Zhang Qi and others to see him off.

Interestingly, when seeing off, Wang Xun and Zhang Qi privately hinted to Zhao Yu: "If we can still fight under General Zhou's command in the future, that would be great..."

They envied Chu Yan, Zhou Gong and others under Zhao Yu's command. The reason was very simple, because Zhao Yu did not take the credit and was willing to distribute the credit to his subordinates.

Just like this time, Wang Xun and Zhang Qi made the credit for regaining several cities, which could at least be worth five years of experience. This is a very amazing thing.

To be honest, there is no need for Zhao Yu to seize the merits. Look at the five tigers of Chen's family, how many of them are there to seize the merits? Didn't they all share the merits to their soldiers? For those of them who are destined to become generals of Jin, there is no need to compete for merits.

The same is true for Zhao Yu now.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Wang Xun and Zhang Qi envied Chu Yan, Zhou Gong and others.

Faced with the hints of the two generals, Zhao Yu Xiaoxiao responded: "Maybe there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future."

Is this really the case?

Well, if one day Zhao Yu reached the level of Zhang Jing, Han Qin and others and the garrison side, he could indeed transfer Wang Xun and Zhang Qi to his command, but to be honest, there is no need.

He has no shortage of generals under his command. This time, Chen Mo, Wang Qing, Zhang Ji, Ju Sheng, Qin Shi, Jia Shu, Xu Ma, Xu Shen, Le Gui and others who failed to quell the rebellion. Which one is worse than Wang Xun and Zhang Qi?

Not to mention that after the rebellion was put down, Zhou Gong and his three generals Xu Qian, Han Gu and Gao Ning also truly became members of the Yingchuan County Army, and Zhao Yu did not lack generals at all.

But even so, it would be impossible to make a good relationship with Wang Xun and Zhang Qi.

On May 28, Zhao Yu led the county army back to Yingchuan County and returned to Xuchang. The county magistrate Chen Lang, who learned the news in advance, and the fake chief magistrate Zhang Ji, took the county magistrate's office and the officials from the chief magistrate's office to go out to greet him.

When meeting Zhao Yu, Chen Lang smiled and congratulated: "Emperor Zhou, now I want to call you General Zhou."

He was very glad that he had climbed the big tree in front of him early. In just over the past year, the Zhou Duwei transformed himself into a new era and was named General Tiger Power by the court. It was not necessarily a height that ordinary people could reach after 20 years. This Zhou Duwei only took three years to reach.

"Where, where, the Chief Chen County Master is so serious, thanks to the wrong love of the court, but Zhou Hu is still the same Zhou Hu as before."

Zhao Yu said with a smile.

In fact, General Huwei's military title is indeed nothing to be proud of.

After returning to Yingchuan County, Zhao Yu was still doing the matter of the commander. The only difference was that when he led his troops to fight, he could raise an additional general flag in his army with the words "Tiger Power General Zhou", which was just that.

Seeing that Zhao Yu was still as kind as before, and there was no change in his promotion at all, the Second Office headed by Chen Lang admired him even more.

Even the picky commander Xun Yi nodded repeatedly.

Until the group of people saw Princess Xiangrui's car, their expressions suddenly collapsed.

Why is this annoying and troublesome princess coming again?

Seeing that Chen Lang, Xun Yi and others were all disgusted, Zhao Yu felt quite funny and said to everyone privately: "Madam Yecheng Hou asked me to take care of this princess for the time being. The reason is long. I will tell you in detail if you have the chance in the future. But please rest assured, I will restrain this princess."
