Trip to Hanzhong 1
Huang Xu was speechless for a while, and was silent again. Liu Yan sighed: "Hey, you! should say two more words." ”
As she spoke, she returned to the front of the case and threw away her baggage: "Someone!"
The door opened, and Qingzhu came in: "Your Highness." ”
"Invite the two military advisors to come and see you. ”
Seeing that Huang Xu turned around to leave, Liu Yan hurriedly stopped him: "Don't rush away, sit here." ”
Huang Xu frowned and sat down silently. Liu Yan poured him a bowl of water: "Drink saliva and tell me what kind of place Dingjun Mountain is." ”
"The mountains are cascading, not high, the woods are dense, the climate is suitable, there are natural depressions, and soldiers can be hidden. Huang Xu's words were concise and to the point.
In other words, there are actually many mountains, many peaks. Judging from the map, its location is indeed very superior, comparable to Jiangxia back then, or even better than Jiangxia, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Liu Yan groaned.
"Yes. Huang Xu nodded.
"So I want to see for myself what kind of existence your so-called depression is, and how many soldiers can be hidden. Liu Yan said yearningly.
"There are more than 10,000 Tibetan soldiers. Huang Xu said.
"In this way, if the whole mountain were used to hide soldiers, it would be 350,000.
"More than that. ”
"Hey...... If there are no three or five years, where are there thirty or fifty thousand...... Unless there are ten rooms and nine empty rooms...... But who's going to give me the time?"
“……”
"So, you have to go there once. ”
"Your Highness can go if you want to, but it's not advisable to disguise yourself. Huang Xu directly pointed to the topic.
“…… Be...... You're right, it's me who is impulsive. If you want to go, of course, you can't just go with you, you and I go with the military advisor is the best policy. After enduring it and enduring it, Liu Yan chose to bow her head and admit her mistake.
Today is different from the past, back then, she was just too shou in Changsha, young and did not appear many times, and it was not easy for others to notice in disguise.
But now she is the Marquis of Shu, the eldest princess of the Han Dynasty, and it is not once or twice that she wears a dress to swagger through the market. At this moment, inside and outside the princess's mansion, how many pairs of eyes are staring at her. I'm afraid that before the door is out, the people who want to assassinate her outside the door are already waiting in line.
The key is that she has not officially established a reserve, and the lives of tens of thousands of people across the country are on her shoulders alone, and she can't take risks.
"......" heard her admit her mistake, Huang Xu lowered his head and was silent, as if it was someone else.
Not long after, Xu Shu and Pang Tong came together. Seeing this, Huang Xu got up to greet them, and Liu Yan greeted: "Looking for you, there is something to explain, senior brother, you put the matter at hand first, let's go to Hanzhong for a trip to comfort the soldiers." Teacher, you stay in Chengdu and pay close attention to the battle situation on the Lujiang front. By the way, I sent a letter to Meng Huo, saying that I would invite his princess to dinner, and the time would be set for the first month of next year, around my birthday. ”
Xu Shu nodded: "I wrote it down for the teacher." When will Your Highness depart?"
"Well......" Liu Yan wanted to say and thought of Huang Xu's saying that it was not advisable to disguise himself, but if he really hugged him from front to back, he would need time to prepare, and his "ambition" faded to seventy-seven eighty-eight, and turned to Huang Xu, who had been silent on the side: "How long will it take?"
"Three days. Huang Xu didn't think twice.
"Okay, then set off in three days, senior brother go back and prepare, let your people set off first, and release the news that the palace will go to Hanzhong to supervise the army, the more people know, the better." Liu Yan immediately made a decision.
“…… Your Highness, with such fanfare, three days of preparation, will the time be too rushed?" Pang Tong hesitated.
"You can go slower on the way. Xu Shu agreed after a little silence, but he also added: "Bring Gong Jin again." ”
"Senior brother, you bring the two little sons under you," Liu Yan muttered, "As for Zhou Yu......"
She thought of Zhou Yu's expression like a mourning when she heard Wen Ping go to Jiangxia that day, and sighed: "That's it, I followed the teacher's words." ”
originally planned to go to Hanzhong quietly alone, with one Huang Xu at most, but he brought a "team of experts", and when Xu Shu and Pang Tong went back, Liu Yan looked unhappy: "With so many people, it is not convenient at all." ”
"Everything is in the forefront of His Highness's safety. Huang Xu was neither happy nor angry.
"Can you ...... this time out?"
"Can't!" Huang Xu directly vetoed before he finished listening, and bowed: "The subordinates retired." After saying that, he left the hall without looking back.
It took Liu Yan a long time to react, and she couldn't cry or laugh: "This, I haven't finished talking about this yet! ”
Two days later, Liu Yan said goodbye to Xu Shu and left Chengdu for Hanzhong with Pang Tong, Zhou Yu and his brother Kou Feng.
Although there were only three days to prepare, the eldest princess's honor guard still pulled out two kilometers. This does not include Pang Tong's personal soldiers who set off first and the scouts who delivered the letter.
Liu Yan was in the car, often opening the curtain to peek at the scenery outside, complaining in her heart about why she agreed to Xu Shu to take the car instead of riding a horse, now it is early autumn, lukewarm, crossing the horse and touring the streets or something, arbitrary and happy, but unfortunately she can only hold back in the car.
"Hey......" Liu Yan sighed in the carriage, the autumn scenery outside was pleasant, her brother and the guards were all freshly dressed and angry, and they were full of energy, but she couldn't stand the slightest favor, and she couldn't help but think of Liu Lai's idea.
It's better to push him to the front of the stage early, firstly, to lighten his burden, and secondly, to give the abdicated imperial brother in the north a reassuring pill, although the emperor has lost, but the surname Liu of the Han family is still there, who will die in the end, and I will see you for a long time.
But after thinking about it again, she dispelled this idea again, she didn't have a serious Liu clan member by her side, and if she didn't deal with his identity, she rashly pushed him to the forefront, which would kill him.
Moreover, at present, the military strength of Shu is insufficient, if the Lujiang front line wins, he still has some confidence, and openly argues with Cao Wei, but if there is a mistake on the front line, his move to make the surname Liu as the prince is very dangerous.
However, it was a matter of time before the prince was established, Liu Yan silently decided, and after this trip to Hanzhong was over, Liu Lai's name would be confirmed.
Sure enough, strength is a thing, just like money, no one is too much, only too little. As the lord of Shu who divides the world with Cao Wei, Liu Yan can be said to be the most powerful woman in the world. However, she still felt that life was trembling.
You have to form a group when you go out, and you have to brew your tone and demeanor first. Her subordinates were afraid of offending her, but she didn't know that she was even more afraid of offending her subordinates, and she was afraid that they would raise the reserve if they had nothing to do.
The second half of her life is worry-free but boring, looking forward to Liu Lai growing up overnight, but Liu Lai grew up and calmed the hearts of others, who will calm her heart, and tell her how to settle her life after she is away from responsibility.
Hey, there has never been a person in this world who really says what he says. One word to live: "tired"
was decadent, and Kou Feng's voice came from outside: "Your Highness, three miles ahead is the camp, and your lords are already waiting there." ”
"Got it. Liu Yan reined in her mind and brought out the shelf of the Marquis of Shu again.
Xu Shu asked her to walk slowly, and she came up with the idea that every place she went, she would not live in the post house but only in the camp, and let the magistrate report to her camp.
In this way, each pause is at least three days, and the trip to Hanzhong is infinitely extended, and there are more and more people waiting in line to see her.
No, it's time to meet her subordinates today, and before she arrives, the person who greeted her has already knelt on the ground.
Liu Yan didn't expect to rely on these people's reports to understand the people's situation, she had her own supervision channels, the official voices of officials, the people's voices, and the various discussions of Shilin students about her and her leadership team in the school, she could quickly know.
Zhou Yu, as the director of the Admonition Hall, also helped her collect a group of "social people" who could speak well, and set up a so-called "market inspection team" to collect the voices of the people and send them to Liu Yan's ears.
It was precisely because of these things that Zhou Yu thought that Liu Yan had trusted him very much and even thought that he was a confidant, but he didn't expect that the Lujiang war would start again, and he still couldn't go back to Jiangdong.
It was a devastating blow to him, and he was a little desperate. Xu Shu saw that he was not in the right state, so he proposed to Liu Yan to take him to Hanzhong.
In fact, Zhou Yu's mind doesn't need to be guessed at all, Liu Yan didn't think about letting him go back to Jiangdong at all, so she naturally turned a blind eye to his previous "courteous" dedication, but she was dissatisfied with him and didn't think about appeasing.
Now that the teacher pleaded, Zhou Yu followed, facing a zombie face all day long, Liu Yan was helpless, so she still made her words clear as soon as possible, completely extinguishing his hope, and saving him from always feeling that someone else had failed him.
After making up her mind, Liu Yan decided that it was better to choose a day than to hit the day, they were all people who didn't want to see much, and it was better to see one than to see a wave: "Today's meeting will be presided over by Dr. Zhou, and after it is over, let him come to see me." ”
Zhou Yu was pulled out inexplicably, only thinking that Liu Yan was treating him as a "cheap laborer" again, and he was bitter, but he had to accept his fate. The officials who came to see him saw that his face was gloomy, and they all trembled, thinking that Liu Yan had caught some handle on them, waiting for them to confess and be lenient.
As a result, the ordinary "work report meeting" has become a "self-criticism and reflection meeting", and all the adults look ugly when they go out.
Liu Yan didn't know this, she was waiting for Zhou Yu to come to "talk", but she didn't expect that there would be a pile of "letters of repentance" waiting for her, but it was an unexpected joy, and the little dissatisfaction with Zhou Yu disappeared, but she felt that this person was a little cute.
As soon as I was in a good mood, I had a smile on my face, and my tone was much softer: "Mr. has helped me a lot in official affairs, and this palace is grateful." ”
"His Royal Highness praises falsely, and his subordinates are sparse. Zhou Yu was in a state of emotion.
"Mr.'s thoughts are all written on his face, which is daunting!" Liu Yan chuckled: "It has the momentum of a high-ranking official, and this palace likes it." ”
Zhou Yu on the other side couldn't roll his eyes when he heard this, he was in a bad mood, everyone with eyes saw it, are you blind?
When he was in a bad mood, he couldn't see others being elated, and now Zhou Yu looked at Liu Yan more and more hated it.
On the contrary, Liu Yan watched Zhou Yu more and more interestingly. Seeing that he bowed his head and was silent, he reached out and picked up the kettle to pour water for him: "What does Mr. think, Zhuge Jin?"
Hearing the name "Zhuge Jin", Zhou Yu had a decent reaction: "A little clever is better than being loyal." ”
"Among the old ministers of Xinyangzhou, Xinglinjun's brother-in-law is the most important to me, and he wants to go to Qingzhou with me, Xu Sheng is younger than Zhuge Jin, they are the indispensable first and second leaders in the future Yangzhou Pastoral Mansion, as for the others, they are all old and can't stand the pain of the case. What do you think, sir?" Liu Yan pushed the boat down the river, putting on a heartfelt appearance.
"Shao'er is blessed to have your protection. Zhou Yu answered the question.
"Not only that, as soon as the war in Lujiang is over, he will become the Marquis of Lujiang. Liu Yan seemed to be smiling, and gave a slam shot.
"Lu, Lujiang Hou?!" Zhou Yu's eyes widened, and he lost his temper to the point of shooting.
"He is an orphan of the Sun family, his blood is pure, curing diseases and saving people is just his hobby, and the title of Xinglinjun is just for his teacher. He, sooner or later, will be a marquis. Liu Yan said: "So, Mr. can rest assured?"
"Subordinate, subordinate, subordinate just want to do more for His Highness. His subordinates are guilty!Please punish His Highness!" Zhou Yu knelt down directly.
"I know that you cherish him, and you miss his father even more. I'm afraid that if you care, it's just one of the reasons, there is a more important reason, sir, do you want to know?" Liu Yan got up and walked in front of Zhou Yu, bent down to help him, and sold a pass.
At this moment, all Liu Yan's prejudices against him completely disappeared and turned into pity.
That's right, it's pity. Now, he is the only one who still remembers the former Xiong Sun Ce, who had an incomparably glorious past.
Compared with Zhang Fei, who had a similar experience, Liu Yan was more sympathetic to Zhou Yu. Because Liu Bei is useless, Zhang Fei is just blindly obedient, and now he is much better off than Zhou Yu. However, Sun Ce's deeds have the Jiangdong Foundation of the Third Dynasty as physical evidence, and Tai Shici and Zhou Yu as witnesses.
Now, the physical evidence and human evidence belong to Liu Yan, and compared with the two, Zhou Yu is even more "weak and helpless".
Zhou Yu didn't know that Liu Yan used weakness and helplessness to describe him in his heart, but he felt that his brain was sober all of a sudden. The boss said that he was afraid that he would "care about it", so he didn't let him go back to Jiangdong, why didn't he think of it at all?
Caring is chaotic, it sounds like a good intention, I am afraid that he will not handle his emotions well and affect his judgment. But in fact, he still doesn't trust him at the root, for fear that he will use his influence to incite the revival of the old forces in Jiangdong to become independent!
Zhou Yu's heart was dead at this time, and the woman in front of him was the Marquis of Shu and the boss. Why is this string missing from his head? If it were him, he would have made the same choice. I'm afraid that I and Shao'er won't be able to set foot in Jiangdong in our lives. Thinking of this, I feel sad, if it is a woman, I will be in tears.
Of course Zhou Yu won't just cry like this, but his mood is down again, and he is weak, so he really uses his strength to let the boss help him up.
"The subordinates are dull and don't dare to speculate. Zhou Yu died of heart and moved the idea of resigning.
Liu Yan didn't see Zhou Yu's emotional changes, but he was said by himself, which aroused his sorrow for Sun Ce. After helping him up, he pointed to the confessions of the officials on the table, and made a joke: "Except for Mr., who else has the ability not to be angry and threaten, so that they do not admit themselves?"
