Chapter 241: Attacking the Heart
When Situ Ningbing and Li Jiayi's eyes fell on Luoyang and even the entire sixteen counties of Yuzhou, Dugu Wu and Cui Qi were still immersed in the increasingly fierce struggle for power and profit, unaware of the impending danger. However, Duguxiu was born out of a woman's intuition, and after knowing that Chang'an City fell into the hands of Situ and Li, she was panicked all day long, and constantly urged Duguwu and Cui Qi to send troops to Chang'an.
However, in the eyes of Duguwu and Cui Jue, Duguxiu and her infant son are just two puppets, who will listen to the puppets? What does a deep palace woman know? Yu Duguxiu's words fell on deaf ears. Duguxiu can see that neither of these two people can be relied on, and if she wants to continue to be her queen mother, she has to rely on herself! So under the advice of Gonggong Miao, Duguxiu found Pei Long, and subdued Pei Long, who had already supported the little emperor. Pei Long set the plan of "snipe and clam competing for fishermen and profit", so that Duguxiu was close to Dugu Wu on the surface, and Cui Jue, who used Dugu Wu to get rid of the ambition of the wolf, assassinated Dugu Wu by surprise, received the military power into his own hands, and then sent troops to Chang'an to fight for the world!
Dugu Xiu happily adopted Pei Long's strategy, and since then, he has rewarded Dugu Wu and a cadre of Dugu clansmen every once in a while. Cui Jue and his gang were extremely dissatisfied, and often complained about Duguxiu's injustice in private, and even the words of the Chicken Sichen disaster to the country and the people came out, Dugu Wu stared at Cui Jue like a black-eyed chicken all day long, and was worried that he had nowhere to start, and these private complaints gave him an excuse to attack Cui Jue.
Dugu Wu impeached Cui Jue on charges of resenting the court and slandering the Queen Mother, and Duguxiu, who was holding his son and listening to the government, was instructed by Dugu Wu in advance, and only made a look of embarrassment, and did not deal with Cui Jue, and Pei Long and other civil officials who had already been ventilated sang with a white face and persuaded Duguxiu not to listen to rumors and wronged loyal ministers and good generals, but the meaning of the words was to force Cui Jue to dispose of several important subordinates around him.
Cui Jue hated it very much in his heart, Dugu Wu's hand was clearly to reduce his wings, if it was in the past when his family was dominant, don't say that it was just two sentences of complaining behind his back, it was to give Duguxiu no face in public in the court, who would dare to say more?!
But no matter how much Cui Jue wanted to peel Dugu Wu for cramps, he had to make a sincere and frightened look on his face, and repeatedly promised that he would severely punish the subordinates who resented the court to slander the queen mother. The strange thing is that Dugu Wu did not relent, he was quite a little raised high and fell gently, Cui Qi only thought that he was young and knowledgeable, if he changed himself, he would definitely take down the few people to be eliminated in advance, as long as the words were disposed of, he would cut those people in court, that would be foolproof!
Cui Jue was secretly glad that Dugu Wu was still too tender and gave him a chance to breathe, and hurriedly returned to his house after leaving the court, and convened a group of staff and subordinates to discuss countermeasures.
Cui Jue's subordinates are mostly military generals, and they are more impulsive, and they are dissatisfied with Dugu Wu, a stinky boy who can't get along with his own adults everywhere by virtue of his identity as an uncle of the country, and as soon as he heard that he actually wanted to kill them with a few words, he immediately ran away.
A general surnamed Chen slapped the table and shouted: "Lao Tzu is complaining, what's the matter! If there is no grandfather of our country, what can he do with a woman born as an illegitimate daughter and his son who can't speak, and a group of rotten Confucians who can only do anything? !
"That's it!" Another general surnamed Xiong also chimed in: "They can stay in Luoyang City safely and criticize at this time, isn't it all because Grandpa Guo led our brothers' heads to pin their trouser belts in exchange for it? !
After a few words, all the generals under Cui Qi were filled with righteous indignation, and they all wanted to copy the guys and kill the little emperor in the Luoyang Palace and Duguwu's mansion, and kill the Dugu clan's embarrassed brother and sister!
Cui Jue wants this effect, in the past, he followed the King of Wei for a longer period of wealth and glory, and the King of Wei fell into the grass for him, taking advantage of the chaos in the world, and climbed up to Duguxiu's mother and son for the sake of wealth and glory, but this time he wanted a unique and exclusive wealth and glory. If Dugu Wu didn't come in, he would still be able to let Duguxiu's mother and son live for a few more years, do superficial things, and complete his reputation. But now that the Dugu brothers and sisters are pressing forward step by step, if he twists and turns again, he can't finally lose his life for the sake of fame, he really can't make it!
Cui Jue's military advisor Xu Yougong peeked through Cui Jue's thoughts, and intuitively felt that this matter was inappropriate, so after thinking about it, he still persuaded: "Ming Gong thinks twice, you originally said that you were willing to support Your Majesty from the will of heaven, but now you are afraid that you will lose people's hearts and morals. What's more, although Duguwu's reason for making trouble is far-fetched, it is not groundless, he has not forced you to kill a few generals, it is better to ......" Xu Yougong resisted the fierce gaze of several generals who might rush over at any time to give him a knife, and continued calmly: "It's better to wronged a few generals, beat a twenty or thirty military stick, give the queen mother and hundreds of officials an explanation, first fool the past and occupy a reason, and then slowly figure it ......" Before he finished speaking, the general surnamed Xiong had already pointed to his nose and scolded, and saliva sprayed his face.
"Old man Xu! Didn't Lao Tzu just look at your widow and sister-in-law's appearance, and think that everyone would help her for their own sake and accept her as a concubine? !
Xu Yougong saw that he was messing around and pulling it on his aunt, his face turned red with anger, and he endured it for a long time before he suppressed the "shaft" that was blocked in his throat. Pretending not to hear it, he shook Cui Jue to the end, and persuaded him bitterly: "I also hope that Ming Gong will focus on the overall situation, and don't ruin a good foundation for the sake of momentary anger!"
Xu Yougong can see it clearly, but it's a pity that his eloquence is a little worse, he said a bunch of words without a single word to the point, people's hearts and morals are not what Cui Jue values, all he wants is that supreme position, but if he impulsively turns against the little emperor in front of him, he will only get farther and farther away from that position!
