Qi Yu did not publicize Qi Xiaotong's secret ambush on Afurong.
This matter remains highly confidential.
He didn't want to stir up trouble in the city and let the world understand and pay attention to this poison prematurely.
It is best to wait until the knowledge has been spread to the point where there are no blind spots before making it public.
Otherwise, accidents may occur due to curiosity about the unknown, so it is better to be safe.
These are all things for later and will not be mentioned for now.
The current focus should still be on how to advance.
As the saying goes, soldiers are more valuable than speed.
Faced with this fleeting opportunity, Qi Jing acted very decisively.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, he couldn't wait to send out troops.
At the same time, the emperor also spread the imperial edict to the Jiaodong Peninsula as quickly as possible, so that the defenders there could send troops to cooperate.
As for Qi Yu, he sent his troops to the south step by step.
Naturally, there was no need for Li Hongyu to participate in the command of the war. All he could do was publish a statement of conquest.
Then, sit in the base camp without erecting a dangerous wall.
Since some of the routes for dispatching troops were relatively consistent, Qi Yujun and Qi Jingjun chose to set off together.
Accompanying people on this trip were Lu Boxuan, Wu Wanrong and others.
As for Fang Ruojiao, she stayed in Mobei and was especially responsible for protecting the safety of the Holy Emperor. Therefore, she did not accompany her husband on the expedition.
Let’s talk about Qi Yu and his party.
They chose to head south by land, and then separated from each other after entering the combat area. During this period, the two of them could take the opportunity to reminisce about the past.
Both official and private matters should be done correctly.
In order to avoid unnecessary interruptions, Qi Yu also specially arranged a spacious van for the two of them to drink and chat.
"Shaocheng, you and I have been separated for several years, but I didn't expect to be reunited until today. Thinking about it, it's really sad!"
"Time flies, and you and I are no longer the Amon we used to be. Now, we have achieved great success and have grown into veritable feudal officials."
In terms of life trajectories, the two of them have striking similarities.
Both of them entered official positions through the imperial examination, and then worked hard in the officialdom. Moreover, they both achieved extraordinary achievements in their military careers and ended up with a gimmick that will last forever.
From the perspective of traditional values, both of them have taken a very inspiring and righteous path.
Cultivate oneself, manage one's family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world.
Finish the affairs of the king and the world, and win the reputation before and after death!
To put it bluntly, the two of them are already very rare winners in life in the long history.
"Looking back now, I feel really sad! Shaocheng, you are no longer the handsome young man you used to be, and I am no longer the reckless man I used to be."
"Those who abandon me will not be able to stay with yesterday; those who mess up my heart will be troubled today. The higher our status, the heavier the burden on our shoulders will be."
"Yes, when we sit in our position, we are no longer simply living for ourselves! The country, the country, and the thousands of people, which aspect does not need to be considered and weighed? Even if it does not contribute to the country, it cannot be a historical achievement.
Sinner!"
As the saying goes, the great the rights, the great the responsibilities.
In his position, he must seek his own government. As a high official in a feudal territory, how can he not consider the people of the world?
Even if there is selfishness, it should be done without harming national interests.
There is no doubt about this.
Speaking of selfishness, Qi Jing couldn't help but complain.
"Learning from history, we should indeed protect ourselves. Otherwise, we may follow in the footsteps of Han Xin and Yue Wumu. There are countless such examples and cannot be underestimated."
Qi Yu also sighed: "People in the world are always contradictory in this way! When you have no status, you want to win a high status; when you have no rights, you want to fight for the rights of others. But when you
When I actually get it, I will feel the fear of not being able to stand up high. I am afraid that if I make a momentary mistake, I will end up in eternal misery."
Qi Jing smiled and said, "What? Shaocheng, are you also thinking about your retreat?"
"Of course! How to escape unscathed and how to protect yourself wisely are important issues that no one with high authority can ignore. I am in charge of one side and hold military power, so naturally I am included in it." Regarding this, Qi Yu
Said sincerely.
"So, what does Shaocheng have to say about this? Although I have repeatedly emphasized before that I will feel at ease if you sit in the position of chief minister, but there is a term limit for sitting in the position of chief minister! Wait until the time passes.
After that, what should I do with myself?"
"Brother Qi, you really have a long-term view! You even thought of the outline of this section."
"How can I not be rigorous when the lives of a whole family are at stake?"
"Well, that's true!"
No one expected that the two people who reunited after a long separation would not share joy, but discuss each other's worries.
This is quite different from what was expected in advance.
However, this is also the correct thinking that a mature man should have.
Only looking forward and not thinking about the future is the thought of young people. After you have a family and a family, you have to consider the future of your family.
Regarding this, Qi Yu said sadly: "To be honest with Brother Qi, I have been working hard to create and promote a more advanced political system. If this can be promoted, all crises can be easily solved. However, the change of the system
There are many obstacles, and it is by no means as easy as imagined. It can be said that there is a long way to go!”
"New system? What new system?" Qi Jing was surprised when he heard this and asked.
Qi Yu said: "In short, it is a comprehensive transformation that returns power to the people and allows the royal law to evolve into civil law. Once this trend is formed, the pressure on the central government will disappear. And we can
Take this opportunity to successfully complete the transfer of power and finally escape intact."
Everyone, please go and try it soon.】
"this……"
"Brother Qi, don't worry about how this system is implemented. I just want to ask you, do you support this decision?"
"ask me?"
"That's right! You are the chief shepherd of Mobei and hold great power. If you don't nod in agreement, this policy will never be implemented."
Oh, set a trap for me?
Forget it, I’ll just jump into your trap!
Qi Jing stroked his beard and said: "Many years ago, Qi said something like this: It is not my intention to be a prince, but I hope the sea will be peaceful. I am not very nostalgic for high positions and power. It can be said that as long as it is
Thanks to the good system of Sheji, Qi will support it unconditionally."
Hearing this, Qi Yu quickly and solemnly raised his hands and said: "On behalf of all the people in the world, I would like to thank Brother Qi for his profound righteousness!"
