Jiang Rong was naturally filled with joy to see his grandson here. He liked this grandson more than his son Jiang Xiaotian.

He ordered the kitchen to prepare a table of delicious dishes just to entertain his grandson.During the dinner, he asked some more questions about his experiences in the North Country this time.

Jiang Chen focused on introducing the situation in the North Country to his grandfather:

"Grandpa, now Yeluhan has brought his troops to our border. You'd better make preparations for war early. Yeluhan has always been ambitious and wanted to be the prince of the Northern Kingdom. Fan Yao's current situation, Even if the emperor of the Northern Kingdom wants to make him the prince, he can't defeat Yeluhan who holds military power. I'm afraid that Yeluhan will find excuses in advance to start a war with us in order to shock the officials and establish his own prestige. This He is cruel and ruthless, and grandpa must guard against his every move. What's more, Fan Yao is now in our Xuanwu Dynasty. If he doesn't get rid of Fan Yao, he will never give up. "

After listening to Jiang Chen's words, grandpa said to him:

"Your analysis is good. I have seen Yeluhan's intention a long time ago. Ever since he took charge of the troops of the Northern Kingdom, he has been eyeing our Xuanwu Dynasty.

He thought that because I was an old man, he dared not take me seriously.I will definitely guard the north gate of the imperial court. The current Xuanwu Dynasty is also in troubled times.As soon as there is any disturbance, there will be a feeling that the building will collapse.

It turns out that your grandfather and I guarded the west gate and the north gate of the imperial court respectively.Ever since General Li's accident, I dare not slack off even more.

Liu Gu, who now takes over from General Li and guards the border of Xiliang, has no real talent or knowledge.He was just a mediocre general who was appointed by flattering Hu Gao.

In times of crisis, it will not play a big role at all.But now the powerful ministers are blocking the way, and even the pillars of the imperial court like your grandfather have been ruined by them.

I really don’t know what kind of situation will develop under the manipulation of Hu Gao after the Xuanwu Dynasty. I am really worried about the fate of the court. "

Jiang Chen saw that although his grandfather had not returned to the court for several years, he still saw clearly what was going on in the court.

He tentatively asked his grandfather:

"Grandpa, the imperial court charged my grandpa with surrendering to the enemy and treason, and then killed all the Li family members in Beijing. What do you think of this matter?"

After listening to Jiang Chen's words, Jiang Rong poured himself a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.

He sighed and said to Jiang Chen:

"Chen'er, do you know why grandpa hasn't returned to the capital for so many years?"

Jiang Chen poured another glass of wine for his grandfather, and then he also drank with his grandfather. He put down the glass and said:

"Grandpa doesn't want to get involved in the factional disputes in the DPRK, for fear of causing trouble for himself, right?"

Jiang Rong looked at his grandson, nodded and said:

"You are absolutely right. The current emperor's character is not like that of the late emperor. He is suspicious by nature and willful. As soon as he succeeded to the throne, he took away all the founding heroes who had followed the late emperor during the Northern and Southern Wars. Replaced by his own people.

Fortunately, I was somewhat useful in his eyes, so he transferred me to Northern Xinjiang to guard it.If you don’t talk about it far away, let’s talk about Liu Guogong.We, old brothers, followed the late emperor on his expeditions to the north and south, and then we conquered this country of thousands of miles.As a result, an imperial decree dismissed his position and transferred him back to the court to serve as a sinecure. "

Liu Huaian nodded and said to the old marshal:

"Yes, when my grandfather was alive, he fell ill because of this matter. He was depressed all day long and fell ill. Whenever he mentioned your battles on the battlefield, his eyes were always bright. He missed it very much. Those were the passionate years of military life."

Jiang Rong said to him:

"You have never experienced a war. It is difficult to imagine that from a general who led thousands of troops and dominated the battlefield, he immediately transformed into a life without any sense of existence. Needless to say, you can also imagine what he felt at that time. That kind of loss.

And General Li Chenglong is even less likely to surrender to the enemy and treason.Everyone can see why Hu Gao used such cruel methods to deal with General Li.Everyone knows that he is Sima Zhao's heart.The person he really wants to deal with is the prince, and General Li is the prince's most powerful supporter.Taking away the thorn in General Li's side was like breaking the prince's right and left arm.At that time, the prince can't stand alone, so he can look for opportunities to bring him down.I wonder who will be able to compete with him at that time.It is not easy for him to support whoever he wants to rise to power. "

Jiang Xiaotian, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke to Jiang Chen and said:

"Chen'er, since ancient times, it's best not to get involved in the fight between the court and China. Don't blame us for not speaking up for your grandfather. Things have already happened, and even if we write to the court again, we can't save anything. "

Jiang Chen looked at his father and said:

"I understand what my father said, but I can't just settle the blood debt of the Li family with them. How many lives were there, because of their slander, blood flowed into a river like this, and then they were They were buried like grass in the graves infested by wild dogs. My mother almost went blind from crying, and the blood of the Li family is also flowing in my body. As the saying goes, every injustice has its own owner. This blood debt has its own owner. , I will let them pay with blood."

Jiang Rong was very pleased to see that his grandson was so bloody.He said to Jiang Chen:

"Chen'er, grandpa likes boys with backbone and filial piety like you very much. It's a good thing to be brave, but don't act recklessly. No matter what you do, you must think twice before you act. Wait until you are capable. Implement the plan in a planned way. Don't act hastily. Not only will you not be able to achieve your wish, but you may not even be able to save your life. Do you understand what grandpa means?"

Jiang Chen nodded and said;

"My grandson understands that I know what I should do. If the time is not right, I will not act rashly."

After finishing their meal, soldiers had already arranged a place for them to rest.

Jiang Chen was really too tired this day.Now that I have arrived at Grandpa's military camp, I feel a sense of solid security.

He was just about to take a rest when his father Jiang Xiaotian walked in.Jiang Chen quickly stood up and stood up respectfully.

After Jiang Xiaotian sat down, he said to Jiang Chen:

"Chen'er, please sit down. We haven't seen each other for so many years. Let's have a nice talk as father and son."
