Di Yingyang was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses. No wonder the second brother was so uncharacteristically waiting for me today. He didn't even say a word of blame, but it turned out that he had completely screwed him up. This made his whole face collapse quickly: "Second brother, are you kidding me? Is there any room for change?"
"What do you think? When have I ever joked with you about such a serious matter?" Di Huchen glanced at his brother with a half-smile: "In addition, this is actually what mother meant. Two days ago, I told you what happened to Sun Qianli As soon as he said it, my mother mentioned that we should help him, after all, he is my younger sister's husband. Moreover, I also feel that this may not be an opportunity for you. "
"Is this called an opportunity? I used to be in the Fourth Army, but now I was sent to a remnant army like the Huben Army, to be with those people... And it was Sun Qianli who killed Yan Ziliang in public and made things worse. There has to be an uproar, and after everyone in the city knows... what future opportunities are there for this?" Di Yingyang asked with a wry smile. Although he complained, he was not really blaming his brother, and he could understand that his brother had made this arrangement. He has his reasons, but the words must be spoken.
Di Huchen took a sip of tea and then continued: "On the surface, it seems to be true. The Huben Army is a bunch of mud that cannot be supported on the wall. But what if Sun Qianli really helps them to the wall? By then , can’t you follow him and take advantage of him? He must be no ordinary person, and he is very skillful in training troops. Once he succeeds, he will surely attract the attention of the whole city, and even the officials will look up to him. "
Di Yingyang frowned and wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start, but Di Huchen's words were not finished yet: "And considering your temperament, even if you go to the Huben Army, you will make the best use of the people, and you will have great achievements." Opportunities for your skills. I know that you have always been easy to make friends and have a close relationship with those young masters in the office. Isn’t it just right to be in the same army with them now? "
"But after all, I don't want to accomplish nothing like them and just be a dandy in the city..."
"So you can help Sun Qianli win over people's hearts. Sun Qianli obviously can't compare to you in this regard, and he needs talents like you. This is a great opportunity for you to advance, otherwise you will have to wait for ten more years. Years later, there is no chance of getting ahead in the Forbidden Army. Just relying on the shadow of our fathers and ancestors will not shine on you at all." Di Huchen said seriously: "And I have also left you a way out, as long as you If nothing can be done, I can still transfer you back, and I am somewhat sure of this in the front office."
The second brother had already said this, so Di Yingyang could only admit it no matter how dissatisfied he was. What's more, he actually has a desire to win. As the second brother said, if he doesn't take the wrong approach, his life will be like this. What man doesn't want to make a great contribution? What's more, he is still a descendant of the Di family!
After being silent for a long time, Di Yingyang could only smile bitterly and said: "Then I will follow your arrangements, second brother, and this time I will work with our brother-in-law to straighten out the mud!"
"Well, as long as you don't blame me, Lao Jiu, I also believe in your and Qianli's abilities!" Di Huchen finally showed a smile. He stood up and walked out, then suddenly turned around and said, "Don't forget to drink the sobering soup, and be careful when doing things with Qianli."
"Don't worry about that." Di Yingyang
After finishing the hangover soup in one gulp, he replied with a smile, returning to his previous somewhat cynical state. He has an excellent temperament and never worries about anything. He is truly an optimist.
Of course, as a descendant of the Di family, he was also an activist, so early the next morning, Di Yingyang visited Sun Tu again, and this time, he quickly saw his brother-in-law with a leisurely look.
"Sanlang, you have really done a great thing. Now it has been spread in the city that you are so murderous. You killed Yan Ziliang as soon as you went to the military camp." When he saw Sun Tu, In front of him, Di Yingyang looked familiar. After saying something exaggerated, his face fell again: "Just like this, you will cause me great harm."
"Why did Ninth Brother say this?" Sun Tu looked at him with some confusion, really unable to figure out the purpose of his sudden visit.
"Well, just yesterday, I was transferred from the Tianwu Army to the Huben Army, which means that from now on, you will be my immediate boss." Di Yingyang told the truth directly, and the only thing he concealed was that this was not the case. His original intention was the decision made by the second brother.
But even so, Sun Tu was surprised: "Brother Ninth, why are you doing this? The Tianwu Army is the Fourth Army, and it is much stronger than our Hu Ben Army. Isn't this too unfair to you?"
"We are all brothers, how can we say that we are wronged or not? Besides, didn't I say before that when you join the Forbidden Army, I will always help you. This is not only to help you, but also for my little sister." Di Yingyang With a look of deep loyalty on his face, it was completely impossible to tell that he was very troubled by this matter yesterday, and it was hard to tell how many times he had sighed in relief.
Even Sun Tu was a little touched at this time: "If Ninth Brother can do this to me, Sun Tu will definitely remember it in his heart! But you also know the situation in the army now..."
"Because of this, you need me even more. I, Di Jiu, may not be very good at other things, but I still have some skills in negotiating with those Yamen young masters. Sanlang, you must be in trouble too, not knowing how to win them over. Follow your orders, leave this matter to me!" Di Yingyang looked like he was taking care of everything, patting his chest and said: "If you give me a few days, I can always get them to return to the camp obediently, and then Let’s talk about other things.”
At this point, he really solved Sun Tu's urgent need. In fact, after he came back yesterday, he thought about how difficult it would be for Fan Ming to really make those Yamen who had different backgrounds and were not afraid of military discipline to submit with just this killing. After all, they have been here all these years, and even Gao Qiu and others have nothing to do with them. How can he, a new official with little real power, really be able to shock them
But now that the words were out, he could only hold on. If they really refuse to obey the order after three days, they will have no choice but to cause another scene and kill a few chickens to show the monkeys. Anyway, with his current reputation, he is not afraid of offending anyone.
But after Di Yingyang said this, things obviously turned around. Sun Tu already knew that this uncle was a man with a wide network of friends and friends all over the city. He must have a common language with those in the yamen who came from the same background. So it is naturally much better for him to come forward than to use force.
At that moment, Sun Tu immediately clasped his fists seriously: "If you, Ninth Brother, can really convince them to return to the military camp, it will be a great achievement. I will definitely tell the truth to the court afterwards."
Report. "
"Haha, let's not mention this for now. Let's talk about it later." Di Yingyang waved his hands grandly, still looking like he only cares about giving without asking for anything in return. This is the key to why he has gained a reputation in Bianjing over the years and is regarded as a best friend by many yamen princes.
Sun Tu nodded and did not dwell on this matter. After all, no matter how much he said, it would be better to take action: "In this case, I have Brother Lao."
"However, Sanlang, you have to do your part in this matter. After all, I am a man of few words..." Di Yingyang had already thought of a way when he came. Now that he had reached a consensus, he made his point clear.
After Sun Tu heard what he said, he didn't hesitate too much and immediately agreed: "That's it. You will arrange everything. At least until it happens, I will obey your orders."
"Haha, I, Di Jiu, am really flattered that you, Sanlang, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces who can command more than 100,000 troops to quell the rebels, obey my wishes."

In the next two days, although Di Yingyang did not go to the military camp again, he was much busier than before. There was no rest from morning to night all day long, and he kept using his own channels to find those yamen young men who were affiliated with the Huben Army.
Just as Sun Tu had guessed, although he killed Yan Ziliang with one sword and caused quite a stir, these people really didn't take it seriously. Because these people's backgrounds are strong enough, they are not afraid of a third-grade military attache like Sun Tu at all, and they really have no idea of promotion.
As some dignitaries, their families are not very promising, and it is difficult to become a civil servant or a warrior. The only thing they are interested in is having fun and causing trouble. As for ambitions and glory, please, those are things that my brother should worry about. As long as anyone has some ideas, he will not be willing to leave his name in the Huben Army. He has not been to the military camp for a year.
As for Sun Tu's appearance, they thought it was just a joke. He was just a martial artist. What threat could he pose? On the contrary, when they learned that Di Yingyang actually joined the Huben Army, they were a little surprised: "Di Jiu, what do you think, you actually lost all the errands of the Tianwu Army? Are you not afraid of your family? Will the second brother beat you to death with a whip?" Everyone knows that the second master of the Di family pays close attention to his younger brother, so he often makes fun of him.
When Di Yingyang faced this question, he would often grin: "It's not like you don't know my temperament. I really can't stand the constraints of the Tianwu Army, so why not join the Huben Army with my brothers, and then eat and drink together in everything?" Happy. As for my second brother, I haven’t made any progress over the years. He is already used to it, so he can only follow me."
"That's true. We're not meant for big things, so this is good."
"So this is something worthy of a big celebration. I have already arranged a banquet at Fan Tower. Tomorrow night, Brother Cao, please don't break the appointment. Not only are you invited this time, but also all the brothers in our Huben Army. Please, I, the junior, will toast you."
"That's good, I won't go anywhere tomorrow, I will definitely keep your appointment!"
Master Di Jiu's reputation was indeed high enough. After two days of running down, twenty or thirty young men from the government were convinced by him that they would go to Fanlou for an appointment on the fifth day of October...
