"What's your relationship with General Zhenguo?" Duan Jiang asked with his eyes widened.
At that time, the Ye family's army followed the late emperor through life and death and fought on the battlefield. The Ye family assisted the late emperor in establishing the Great Zhou Dynasty and contributed to the founding of the country.
However, after the death of the first emperor, and the subsequent emperors of Zhou who came to the throne, they were all afraid of the Ye family army. Until more than ten years ago, an accident happened in Kyoto. Prince Yu took the opportunity to hand over his military power and return to his hometown. However, I don't know what Emperor Zhou Yuan thought. He was obviously afraid but he didn't.
Promise.
However, since then, Ye Jiajun has been left outside the customs and has hardly come out to take the limelight.
If the Ye family army at the foot of the mountain is truly invincible, why would it take a thousand men to wipe out the stronghold...
However, Liangcheng is located in a remote area, how could Ye Jiajun suddenly appear here?
Duan Jiang looked at Gu Liyou, very confused.
I heard that the Ye Family Army was founded by the ancestors of the Ye Family. They have always only recognized blood relatives of the Ye Family, and others...even the emperor's orders are not scrupulous.
Thinking about it, this may be one of the reasons why Emperor Zhou Yuan was so afraid of Ye Jiajun.
Seeing Duan Jiang's shocked look, Gu Liyou knew that he wouldn't be able to fight today. He put the sword into its sheath smoothly and said calmly: "The general who controls the country in your mouth is my grandfather."
Ye Sili looked at the people beside her infatuatedly. In the past, many people in Kyoto complained to her and said bad things about Ayou, but she naturally couldn't listen to a word of it.
In her opinion, Ayou stands like a orchid tree, smiles like a bright moon in her arms, is gentle and elegant in every gesture, and is full of gentleness when talking and laughing. How can he be as cold and terrifying as they accused him of?
Ye Sili tilted her head, her eyes never taking half an inch away from Gu Liyou.
After hearing this, Duan Jiang looked confused and turned to look at Duan Tian and Wu Cai. Seeing them both shaking their heads in confusion, Duan Jiang asked suspiciously: "Isn't your surname Gu?"
Why is he the grandson of General Ye again?
Gu Liyou raised his eyebrows lightly and remained silent.
Duan Jiang reacted and said in disbelief: "Are you the boy that General Ye told the world to pick up?"
"Pay attention to your wording. Ayou is the eldest son of Yu Gong's mansion. What do you mean by a retrieved doll?" Ye Sili reminded.
She never liked others talking about Ayou's life experience.
"You..." Duan Jiang's eyes fell on Ye Sili. He was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "Are you the princess of the Ye family?"
"..." Ye Sili looked at him doubtfully.
Could it be that he really burned out his brain last night? Didn't she say she was Le'an?
"I told you that I wanted to go down the mountain and see the world." Bai Yi held his sword and mocked: "My young master has been ordered to suppress bandits, why don't you guys find out in advance?" Bai Yi said the word "suppress bandits" deliberately.
The hilt of the sword pointed at Duan Jiang and the others.
Duan Jiang's eyes fell on Ye Sili and saw her standing obediently next to Gu Liyou.
Her eyebrows were curved, and she stood side by side with Gu Liyou without any precautions.
This look was something he had never seen before on her face.
Duan Jiang smiled bitterly, stepped on the stone in front of him, pressed his body forward, and scanned them from high to low.
"Do you really think that I am a vegetarian? What about Ye Jiajun?"
Duan Jiang pointed at the two people next to each other and said dissatisfiedly: "You two can only leave one of them today."
"Duan Jiang."
"Shh." Duan Jiang looked at Ye Sili and made a silent gesture: "Little lady, I, Duan Mangzi, am a rough man, but I also know the word 'shame'. You have rejected me like this. I
Naturally, I won't stalk anyone. It's just that today is between me and him."
Duan Jiang glanced at Gu Liyou, and then continued to say to Ye Sili: "Of course I can't bear to hurt you, but it involves the lives of thousands of brothers in my village, and I must give an explanation today no matter what."
"Okay, I'll stay." Gu Liyou responded calmly.
"Ayou." Ye Sili grabbed his sleeve, but seeing his gentle facial expressions, she comforted him: "I asked Bai Yi to take you back. It's time for you to go back and wash yourself. You're almost like a little cat."
Ye Sili held on to his sleeves, and Gu Liyou said helplessly: "Didn't you say that Duan Jiang is a talent that can be made?"
Hearing this, Ye Sili understood, reluctantly let go of his hand, and followed Bai down the mountain.
Gu Liyou watched Ye Sili walk away, then turned back to Duan Jiang and said, "Let's talk, Chief Duan."
Ye Sili followed Bai Yi down the mountain, but Duan Jiang did not send anyone to stop him.
As soon as Ye Sili arrived at the foot of the mountain, he saw several rough guys surrounding him.
"It is indeed General Ye's female doll."
"This appearance is 60 to 70% similar to Mrs. Ye's."
"You've grown so big."
"Ahem, third, fourth, and fifth, please don't be rude."
"..."
Seeing Ye Sili, everyone knelt down and saluted:
"Princess Princess!"
Ye Sili was dumbfounded. She looked at the people kneeling in front of them and then took a closer look at the leaders. She felt they looked familiar.
"Second uncle? Third uncle? Fourth uncle? Fifth uncle?"
The people in front raised their heads one after another. After Ye Sili saw it clearly, he couldn't help but be happy: "It's really you. The Ye family army here is actually commanded by you?"
These uncles and uncles were all brothers who fought side by side with their grandfather and father. Over the years, in order to preserve the peace of the Ye family, his grandfather silently sent them out of Kyoto, a place of right and wrong. However, in Ye Sili's childhood memories, these
Her uncle and uncle would go back to visit her grandfather every few years, so she also had some impressions.
"It's a long story. By the way, why didn't you see Mr. Liyou? Didn't he go to pick you up?" asked the second child.
The smile on Ye Sili's face gradually disappeared, and he said worriedly: "Dear uncles, Ayou is temporarily staying in the stronghold. Le'an kindly asks you to protect him."
"Whatever the princess said, our lives were given by General Ye. Now that you are in trouble, we should do our best to help you. What's more, Young Master Liyou is one of our own, how can we refuse to save him even if he dies?
"Lao Si said.
"Exactly, if this gang of bandits dares to harm Mr. Liyou, we will kill him!" Lao San glared at the bandits guarding the door menacingly and said provocatively without fear.
The two dozen bandits silently took a few steps back.
Ye Sili was worried and wanted to stay and wait, but after everyone persuaded her, she had to go back to the house with Bai Yi.
In Duanshan Village, there is a large rectangular wooden table placed in the courtyard, with two large jars of wine placed on the table.
Duan Jiang and Gu Liyou were sitting facing each other, no one dared to disturb them, but they heard Wu Cai running over to report: "Master of the village, Miss Ye has left, and the Ye family's army is still guarding at the foot of the mountain."
Duan Jiang raised his hand, signaling Wu Cai to step back, and continued to stare at Gu Liyou fiercely.
Ye Jiajun at the foot of the mountain must have heard that the young lady left the message to warn him, hoping to ensure Gu Liyou's safety.
Gu Liyou glanced around at the guards standing behind Duan Jiang and said casually: "I must have told you the stakes involved. What do you think?"
It would be a pity if Duan Shanzhai was destroyed in one go.
Duan Jiang didn't respond, just stared at Gu Liyou with his eyebrows furrowed, and after a while, he asked:
