Chapter 22
The grass at the entrance of the cave was flattened, and the poor spiders completely gave up their hearts and gave up their homes sadly, moved elsewhere to build nets. This cave... will be given to the "dog man and woman".
Ye Xiaotian and Tian Miaowen sat face to face on the "lawn". The bonfire was burning in the cave. The red flames reflected on their faces, reflecting two young, one with clear edges and one with soft curves.
A skinned beast was standing on the fire, roasting it with oil squeaking. A guard carefully turned the wooden pole to bake the animal meat. The animal meat was not yet fully cooked, but the aroma of the meat had already ejaculated.
The other guards were scattered into the jungle. The night was dark and there were stars in the sky. Looking up, the stars were blinking, as if you could pick the stars in your hands as long as you jumped hard.
The cave is facing the cliff, looking from other directions, and with the cover of grass and trees, it is difficult to notice the fire unless you go very close. Several guards are lurking dozens of feet away around the cave, so the two can chat safely.
Ye Xiaotian casually fiddled with a piece of grass stick and said to Tian Miaowen: "You are so quarrel that you can expose your treasures. You shouldn't just give up your anger. What exactly do you Tian's family want?"
Tian Miaowen's bright eyes were shining with the blazing flames, and there seemed to be two clusters of flames in her pupils: "I want the Tian family to start again in the southwest!"
Ye Xiaotian raised his head slightly, and there was a big star in his sight, which was particularly bright. Ye Xiaotian had never learned about the celestial phenomena and did not know what kind of star it was, but he just felt that it was much brighter than the surrounding stars.
Seeing Ye Xiaotian looking at Xingchen in a daze, Tian Miaowen couldn't help but ask, "What?"
Ye Xiaotian's eyes fell back to Tian Miaowen's face. There were two stars on that beautiful face. Although it was not as bright as the star in the sky, it was a hundred times more beautiful than the big star. These beautiful gem-like "stars" were shining with the hope in her heart.
Ye Xiaotian sighed and said, "The emperor's will is difficult to change. If it is the will of the late emperor, it will be close to the ancestral system and it will be even more difficult to change. The Tian family has today, but the Emperor Yongle's idea."
Tian Miaowen is charming, but there is a stubborn curve on the corner of her mouth: "You have to open up a territory outside the mountain to accommodate many mountain people. Is it easy? Is it easy if you want to bring out people who have lived in the mountain for thousands of years? Even if there is only a first-line opportunity, I will not let it go!"
Ye Xiaotian asked back: "But where is the opportunity?"
Tian Miaowen said word by word: "Yang Yinglong!"
Ye Xiaotian raised his eyebrows slightly, and when he felt puzzled or surprised, he would habitually make this move: "Yang Yinglong?"
Tian Miaowen said: "Not bad! Yang Yinglong has great ambitions and has been rebelling for a long time. I believe you have noticed it."
Ye Xiaotian nodded, and Tian Miaowen said, "If Yang Yinglong rebelled, I would be loyal to the court and cooperate with the imperial army to suppress the rebellion. With this great function, I would not realize your wishes? Even if it cannot be fully realized, I will slaughter this big fat pig. We can have a good New Year!"
Ye Xiaotian took a deep breath and said with a serious expression: "We will get involved in the battle between two giants. Once you are not careful, you will be crushed to pieces."
Tian Miaowen smiled and said, "I think it's a fisherman! Lord Ye, your current method of expanding your territory is actually quite good. The Yu family in Tongfu is ready to move and wants to take the Zhang family and replace it. You cleverly use this and join forces with the Yu family to control the Zhang family. Thus, you have gained a foothold for you.
The Yang family is smart and takes advantage of your opportunity to return to the mountain to occupy your fortress and land. He gives you a sufficient reason to fight back, and you build a puppet chieftain and bring the Shiqian Yang family under your jurisdiction.
However, these are all cleverness. If you don’t know the direction in advance and have a clear understanding of the future, you cannot plan carefully. You must see the general trend clearly. If the general trend is unclear, it is like sailing along the water, sailing down when the wind, anchoring when the shore, and drifting with the flow.
If you can understand the waterway ahead, where the water is dangerous, where the beach is shallow, where there is a pier, where the forks lead to, which one is higher and which one is lower than the blind man and the blind horse who deals with the move?”
Ye Xiaotian raised his eyebrows again: "What is the general trend that the girl is talking about?"
Tian Miaowen beat the waist and said in annoyance: "It would be fine if I hurt other places, but... I can't sit or lie down now. After a while, my waist will be sore."
Ye Xiaotian coughed and said, "Do you want to lend my shoulders to you?"
Tian Miaowen snorted: "Is it comfortable to lean on your shoulders? It's just as tired!"
Ye Xiaotian patted his thighs and said jokingly: "What if you borrow your legs for the girl?"
Tian Miaowen said, "I have a beauty couch in my room. I am used to lying on the side of the couch. Forget it, I will use you as a beauty couch today." After that, I lay down on my side with peace of mind and pillowed on Ye Xiaotian's lap.
Her posture was really ambiguous, with stars everywhere and the night wind was gentle. A beautiful woman was pillowing on a man's legs. If she was talking about something romantic, it would be really appropriate, but the topic they talked about was incompatible with this.
Tian Miaowen was pillowing on his lap, and she felt a strange feeling in her heart, but she hadn't been sitting for a long time now because she was injured and could not lie down and chat with him, right? That was not as decent as she did now.
Miss Tian covered her shameful face with the night, coughed and said the serious matter: "Yang Yinglong has accumulated strength and made plans. The greater forces in Guizhou have more or less noticed it. This is probably the convenience of the prophet of the water-warming duck. But does the court know nothing about this?"
Ye Xiaotian thought for a while and said, "I think although the imperial court regards the north as a major concern and does not pay much attention to the southwest direction, it will not be ignorant, right?"
Tian Miaowen smiled and said, "Maybe, the court believes that Yang Yinglong's various moves are just to compete for profit with other chieftains, or even if he notices his ambition, he can only pretend not to know.
After all, Yang Yinglong’s rebellion has not been revealed, so it is impossible for the court to take action first. If he rashly punishes such a country, it will arouse the prevention and vigilance of more than a hundred chieftains from Guizhou. If it is not done well, it will be a fire of war."
Ye Xiaotian said: "Watch something, we are not rebellious."
Tian Miaowen sniffed and said, "The rebellion has not been revealed. Why do you think he is right? Today he is determined to rebel. You can send troops without any evidence. Who can guarantee that you will not think that I will rebel tomorrow, and think that you will rebel tomorrow? Are you a good man and a trusted woman in the court?"
Ye Xiaotian thought about it and made sense. Even though he knew that Yang Yinglong had a rebellious intention, as a chieftain, he did not want the court to be punished without his advice. Once this example was opened, if everyone acquiesced, it was hard to say whether the court would use the same method on them in the future.
Tian Miaowen said: "But if you think the court will do nothing, you just passively wait for him to rebel and then go to counterattack. That's wrong."
Ye Xiaotian asked alertly: "How do you say this?"
Tian Miaowen said: "At the beginning of the year, Yang Yinglong presented the emperor's great wood and good materials and was praised by the court. He was favored by the court, right? But at the same time, the court transferred Ye Mengxiong to Guizhou as the governor. Ye Mengxiong was a civil servant, but he was a versatile civil and military talent, extremely loyal and brave, and dared to take responsibility. He was very wise and resourceful.
Since he entered the officialdom, he has been promoted from a minor official step by step. When he was in Ganzhou, he destroyed the Jigang in Huangxiang; when he was an official in Anqing, he killed the giant bandits in Tiantangshan; when he was transferred to Zhejiang to inspect the deputy envoy of the Haidao Censorate, he was responsible for the sea defense; last year he served as the deputy envoy of the Yongping Army Preparatory Censorate of Zhili, and built artillery chariots, and the bandits in Liaodong were invincible. This person had already changed from civil and military, and the court transferred him to Guizhou. Why did he come?"
Tian Miaowen said this and smiled coldly. She said: "The place of Bozhou belongs to Guizhou, but its place is closer to Sichuan. Therefore, Yang Yinglong had close contacts with the officials in Sichuan than Guizhou, so the court transferred Li Hualong to Sichuan as the governor.
Li Hualong is also a famous official. He knows military affairs and is especially good at identifying and employing people. What do you think the court has transferred him to Sichuan for? It is clearly a rectification of the administration. If this is not because the court has a precaution against Yang Yinglong, I won’t believe it if I beat him to death!”
Ye Xiaotian said "um" and suddenly felt that the one who was pillowing on his legs was not a beautiful woman who was more beautiful than Hua Jieyu and more beautiful than jade, but Mr. Kong Ming, who had a feather fan and a scarf, and he was the Uncle Liu, who had his hands longer than his knees and had big ears and shoulders.
No, his hands were not longer than his knees, and his earlobes were thick but not as wide as his shoulders. However, the little beast under his crotch was eager to lift it. There was no way. Tian Miaowen was born with a beauty, and she looked like a charming appearance that would harm the country and the people. She was also laid on his thighs, just a short distance from his private part. Even if he was a centenarian monk, he would not be able to have imagination.
Ye Xiaotian quickly pressed his tongue against his palate, lifted his anus and closed his abdomen, and silently recited in his heart: "The color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color, in the name of the Lord, expel evil spirits, the Supreme Lord is urgent and as ordered by the law!"
Tian Miaowen didn't know what dirty thoughts were in his mind. His mouth was lightly opened and his red lips twitched. He continued: "This is the precaution of the court, but in Guizhou, all forces are intertwined and checked and balanced each other. This situation is half born, and the other half is caused by the court!"
"If you observe carefully, you will find that there is always a force that can be replaced by a fort, a village, a county, a prefecture, a province, and a province, no matter the size of the place, under the most powerful force, although it is not as strong as him, but once it is supported by external forces or the most powerful force is greatly defeated, it can be replaced.
In this case, the most powerful force dare not easily do whatever it wants to do outside and do whatever it wants from the inside. Of course, there are always exceptions, but they have never been the norm. At most, it will definitely be the case for decades.
Of course, it is not the court's turn to construct this balance with care, but the court designed the great chieftains in this way, and the great chieftains in this way, and finally they naturally formed such a mutual check and balance."
Tian Miaowen raised her face and smiled charmingly at him: "Now Yang Yinglong is about to break this balance. Don't you think that under such circumstances, the court and the chieftains really hope to rebuild a force to balance?"
“duang~~~”
Ye Xiaotian's legs were a little numb from the pillow, and he moved his posture a little. Something that was originally cleverly pressed by his robe suddenly rose up. Ye Xiaotian was so embarrassed that he could only stammer: "Yes...yes, the Tian family will definitely rise, and I...I will definitely rise too!"
