Yixiu is reborn, fights against her elder sister, and becomes the queen mother
Chapter 259 Recovering the Northwest Army 2
"If one day the Emperor really wants to depose me, do you think I should rebel?"
Nian Gengyao was a straightforward person. He said bluntly, "Of course we have to rebel. If we rebel, at least we still have hope of survival. If we surrender, we will definitely die."
The prince continued to nod, "Yes, that's true, but rebellion also requires an army."
Nian Gengyao and the prince had been in opposition for many years. He also knew that the emperor had intended to use the Nian family and Prince Dun's mansion to compete with the prince. It can be seen that the emperor had long been dissatisfied with the prince.
If one day the emperor has a more preferred heir, then deposing the crown prince is only a matter of time, right?
"I will change the names of you three, father and son, and bring you back into the Northwest Army. I will only give you three years, and within three years, I want you to take down the Northwest Army."
Three years is neither long nor short. If it were someone else, it would be a fantasy to take charge of all the Northwest Army within three years.
If it was Cheng Gengyao, there would be hope. Nian Gengyao already had a high prestige in the army.
The prince had also secretly visited the Northwest Army, because the murder of Nian Gengyao had long caused dissatisfaction, but the imperial power was supreme, and they could do nothing about it.
If Nian Gengyao came back alive and secretly recalled his old forces, he would definitely take control of the Northwest Army.
Nian Gengyao thought for a while and nodded.
"Alright, three years is three years. Your Highness, give me three years. I will definitely provide you with the strongest military support."
In fact, Nian Gengyao really wanted the prince to rebel. The dog emperor had harmed him to this extent, and he wanted to cut the dog emperor into pieces.
In this way, Nian Gengyao and the prince reached an agreement. The two agreed that the prince would protect the Nian family and Nian Shilan for him within three years, and Nian Gengyao needed to develop his own power in the northwest for the prince.
As for arranging a new identity, it naturally fell on the Ulanara family.
Although Fei Yanggu is no longer with us, his son Fu'an has grown up and now works in the Ministry of Revenue.
Ulanara Fu'an found an old friend of his father, and with his own identity as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, he immediately arranged for Nian Gengyao and his two sons to become distant relatives of the Ulanara family.
Because they were nobles and had gone through some operations, the three of them did not start as soldiers, but were directly promoted to generals.
With the Crown Prince Su Chou running the affairs in the capital, no one noticed anything wrong.
After Nian Gengyao and his two sons arrived at the Northwest Army, they would definitely be recognized.
However, Nian Gengyao had already made this plan. He went straight to his former deputy general and explained the matter to him.
This deputy general Nian Gengyao not only saved his life on the battlefield, but also took good care of his wife and children.
The deputy general treated Nian Gengyao as his own brother. When Nian Gengyao was sentenced to death by the emperor, the deputy general was sad for a long time and even spent money to find connections to plead for Nian Gengyao.
Now, seeing that Nian Gengyao was not dead, he was very excited.
"That's great, General. I knew you weren't dead. It's great that you're back alive."
The deputy general hugged Nian Gengyao excitedly like a child.
Nian Gengyao laughed and said, "Thanks to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for saving me, otherwise I would have really died at the hands of that bastard emperor."
The deputy general was also very angry. He cursed: "God damn it, the dog emperor. The general fought for him outside and died. I didn't expect that the dog emperor would abandon him. If I get the chance, I will chop off the dog emperor's head."
Nian Gengyao patted the deputy general's shoulder with a deep and firm tone.
"Brother, I want to speak to you from the bottom of my heart. I am now considered His Royal Highness's subordinate. Although His Royal Highness is also a legitimate royal family member, what we are doing is, after all, something that could cost us our lives. I have a question for you: will you follow His Royal Highness, or what?"
The deputy general didn't even think twice and said directly, "I don't care about the emperor or the crown prince. I only recognize the general. Back then, my family was so poor that we couldn't even afford to eat. My brothers took me away to escape famine. If the general hadn't sent someone to find me, I would never have seen my parents again in this life. On the battlefield, the general saved me from danger time and time again and promoted me many times. I will never forget this kindness."
After saying this, the deputy general knelt down and bowed deeply to Nian Gengyao.
"As long as the general gives the order, I will die for you."
Nian Gengyao was very moved. He and his deputy general went to meet many of his former subordinates.
Nian Gengyao was very nice to his subordinates, so these deputy generals expressed their willingness to continue following Nian Gengyao.
However, after Nian Gengyao died, the emperor sent a new person to take charge of the Northwest Army.
After the new official discovered the abnormality, he directly called Nian Gengyao and his father and son over.
军帐
"Ulanara Nei Suken, you look quite similar to Nian Gengyao! And your two lieutenants look so much like Nian Gengyao's two sons, Nian Fu and Nian Xing."
Before Nian Gengyao could speak, an old veteran who had served in the Northwest Army for many years interrupted him.
"Sir, I'm afraid you've been blinded by the yellow sands of the northwest! Have you seen Nian Gengyao? I say he looks like him! I've been with Nian Gengyao for many years. Although this Ulanara does look somewhat similar to Nian Gengyao at first glance, if you look closely, they are clearly two different people."
As the veteran spoke, he stood up and gestured towards Nian Gengyao's face.
"Look at this Lord Ulanara. He has a round face, but I remember Gengyao had an oval face. Let's talk about the nose. Nian Gengyao's nose is tall and straight. Look at Lord Ulanara. His nose bridge is indeed a bit flat. Also, I remember Nian Gengyao had a small scar on the left side of his cheek. It was accidentally cut by the enemy's knife during the battle. But do you see it on Lord Ulanara's face?"
The official sent by the emperor snorted coldly and said nothing.
"In that case, let's ask others to come and take a look."
Many officers of the Northwest Army were called over to identify whether this Lord Ulanara looked like Nian Gengyao, and whether the two people beside him looked like Nian Gengyao's sons.
Although many people realized that this Lord Ulanara was Nian Gengyao, no one dared to say it out loud.
A large number of people were once Nian Gengyao's confidants. When they heard the news that Nian Gengyao was not dead, they were so excited. How could they betray Nian Gengyao at this time?
Another group of smart people had already guessed the twists and turns involved.
What is Nian Gengyao's current surname? Ulanara!
What is the Queen's surname?
How can they explain clearly what is going on between those bigwigs in the upper echelons? They should just live a good life, why bother getting involved in this muddy water?
