After Chu Nanfeng beckoned Liu Zhengyang to sit down in the main hall, he waited for the maid to pour tea and waved everyone in the room away. Vertex. Fastest updates

Liu Zhengyang took a sip of tea and hugged his fists, "Duke Chu, I'm disturbed a lot today!" ”

Chu Nanfeng said with a smile, "Where is Duke Liu, eating the king's fortune and sharing worries for the monarch, it's all for the emperor's affairs, so don't bother!" ”

Liu Zhengyang smiled and said with a deep breath, "Duke Chu, the state affairs are in danger, let's talk about something from the heart." What do you think of the current situation? ”

Chu Nanfeng said, "It's not a secret, the current situation, the old man is also worried day and night!" The imperial spirit in Jiangnan is getting stronger and stronger, and it almost has the tendency to overwhelm the three parties. In the long run, I am afraid that the national capital will be shaken sooner or later! ”

Liu Zhengyang said, "Chu Gong Mingjian, I also think so. Chu Gong knows, what is wrong with this? Why, is the imperial spirit in Jiangnan so vigorous? Could it really be that this is a divine arrangement? ”

Chu Nanfeng said, "No, the old man also asked people to explore the new deal in Jiangnan." They advocated returning the benefits to the people, eliminating all the powerful and sects, and then distributing the land resources to the small people. This policy, which caters to the needs of the majority of small people, has naturally won their support. The so-called imperial spirit, in the final analysis, is also the will of the people. They don't care which emperor is sitting in the court, they only see if it is beneficial to them. If we can't come up with strong measures, it will be a matter of time before we are suppressed by the Jiangnan side! ”

Liu Zhengyang frowned for a while, and he had the same thought in his heart.

He took a sip of tea and said in a deep voice, "It's difficult, it's not easy to reform." Destroying all sects, isn't that even Confucianism abandoned? In this way, where is the Confucian power willing to accept it? All the resources of Zhongzhou are also controlled in their hands, and some of them are controlled in the hands of the Praetorian Guards of the Five Clans, can they spit out willingly? ”

Chu Nanfeng said, "What Liu Gong said is that the forces in Zhongzhou are intertwined, and it is obviously not feasible to reform. We don't have the kind of conditions that don't break or stand, and break and then stand! ”

Liu Zhengyang said, "That's what it means in the next, so I proposed to unite the two families and jointly go on a southern expedition." The Duke of Chu is in the court, why doesn't he support him? ”

Today, in the imperial court, the people who oppose it are all Chu Nanfeng's protégés.

He sighed in a deep voice and said, "Liu Gong, uniting the other two families, isn't it seeking skin with the tiger?" Let's not talk about whether we can win the war, even if we win, how will the benefits be distributed? When the time comes, we will have to meet each other! Jiangnan is making trouble, and in the end it is still not in the hands of the imperial court! ”

Liu Zhengyang said, "Having said that, at least we have eliminated the forces in Jiangnan and reduced one enemy for us." There are two left, and we can parry it, right? ”

Chu Nanfeng said, "The soldiers have clouds, the upper soldiers are strategic, the lower ones are handed over, and the lower soldiers are attacked." As soon as the scourge of war begins, it is all a drain on national strength. How much money do we have to toss, don't you know Brother Liu? Once the treasury is depleted and taxes are re-imposed, the people below will resist us even more. When the time comes, they will take the initiative to stand on the side of the anti-thieves! ”

Liu Zhengyang's face sank, and he still insisted on his opinion, "Since Duke Chu doesn't agree with Zaixia's plan, then Zaixia has nothing to say." If a new court has no intention of going in and only wants to defend one side, when will it be able to calm the world? In the next is still the meaning, the battle must be fought, and it must be fought hard! ”

Chu Nanfeng said, "It's hard to see how the holy will is!" ”

"Yes, the Holy Ones will decide!"

Liu Zhengyang raised his hand and clenched his fists, did not persuade Chu Nanfeng again, turned around and brushed his sleeves away.

The two of them, Chu Nanfeng advocated calmness, and Liu Zhengyang advocated going in, and it was not the first time that they quarreled in the court.

The next day, Li Yuancheng issued a decree, agreed with Liu Zhengyang's intentions, and sent envoys to lobby the east and west to jointly resist the forces in Jiangnan.

Chu Nanfeng angrily threw the tea bowl on the ground in the house, and silently recited in his mouth, "This is self-defeating, self-defeating!" ”

The eighteen states in the south of the Yangtze River, because of the vast geographical boundaries, the new policy is still being implemented in an intense and orderly manner.

One of the big reforms was the caravanserais, which used to be official only, but now open to all citizens.

There is a space altar built in the post station, and you can teleport directly from the post station where you want to go.

Even if people can't pass, you can usually send some parcels and the like.

This was unimaginable before.

Poor families and lower-class people, where can they enjoy such treatment.

In the county lord's mansion, information was sent one after another from all over the country.

Li Qingxuan listened to Liu Ruyan's report and asked her, "Ruyan, are you sure your husband is back?" ”

Liu Ruyan said, "Exactly, I heard that he overwhelmed all the major sects, stepped on the Western Spirit Mountain, and spread all over the cultivation world!" ”

Li Qingxuan said, "Then why didn't he come to see us?"

Liu Ruyan said, "The husband has just finished the tribulation, so he naturally wants to retreat and consolidate his cultivation. He's in retreat these days! ”

Li Qingxuan held his chin and said, "Retreat, retreat, when will we be able to live a normal life!" ”

Liu Ruyan chuckled, "Then I guess we have to wait until the day when the world is calm!" ”

Li Qingxuan nodded and asked her, "Is there any urgent military situation these days?" ”

Liu Ruyan handed over the secret letter he had just received to Li Qingxuan, and said, "The capital is in an emergency, and the emperor has sent an envoy to King Qing and the overlord, preparing to jointly attack Jiangnan with them. We are likely to face the attack of the three forces, and the pressure is not small! ”

Li Qingxuan looked at the military newspaper and smiled, "How do I think this is a rare opportunity?" ”

Liu Ruyan frowned and said, "What does Your Majesty mean?" ”

Li Qingxuan said, "Among the three forces, only our naval army is the most powerful. If they want to cross the south of the Yangtze River, they must first cross the great river and natural risks. Even if you force it, there will be a tired teacher. Maybe we can let them come over first, and then tighten our pockets and block them in Jiangnan to encircle and annihilate them. In this way, the vitality of the three parties will be greatly damaged, and we can raise troops for the Northern Expedition! ”

Liu Ruyan said, "This is a good way, if this battle is won, my Nanling Army will be invincible in the world!" ”

Li Qingxuan instructed, "You pass on my will and come up with a feasible plan with Xue Dashuai and Chu Wenshan." As long as they dare to come, we have to swallow it in one gulp. I believe that the way of heaven is on our side! ”

"Command!"

Liu Ruyan clenched her fists, and immediately sent someone to summon Chu Wenshan and Xue Renyong to come over to discuss the matter.

As soon as the war preparations began, the grain and grass went first, and the forces of the four sides were in intense preparations.

The Nanling Army swept through the major aristocratic sects in the south of the Yangtze River, obtained countless money and grain, and the treasury was quite full.

There are also several spirit stone veins, half of which are occupied by the Southern Tang Dynasty Imperial Court and the Heavenly Dao Sect.

Now, it can support any big war.

The Quadripartite War Machine operated for a year, and a year later, the three forces of Jiangbei gathered on the north bank of the river, preparing to take Jiangnan in one fell swoop.

The disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect were ordered to assist the Southern Tang Imperial Court, and in just one year, many of them had reached a realm that was difficult for previous monks to achieve in their lifetimes.

On the bank of the north of the river, a young man was full of spirits and shouted coldly at the river, "In other days, the dignity that the ancestors lost here will be all retrieved by me here today!" (To be continued.) )
