Chapter 32: Pretending to be a ghost
In March 959, Guo Rong led the army to attack the Liao State (Khitan), all the way like a bamboo, once recovered the two states and three passes in the sixteen states of Yanyun, in June, when preparing to capture Youzhou, Guo Rong suddenly fell ill and could only withdraw the army, and soon after returning to Kaifeng, Guo Rong died.
Let's not talk about whether there are any people in history who have given Guo Rong a horse, Guo Rong reigned for six years, led the army to fight repeatedly, it is impossible not to have never been injured, if the wound is infected and has not been treated in time and effectively......
After I crossed over, what I always wanted to do was not to kill Zhao Kuangyin, a dog thief, to kill a Zhao Kuangyin, and other people, such as Li Li Chongjin, such as Zhang Yongde, and even Shi Shouxin.
What I want to do, the most important thing is to find a way to extend Guo Rong's lifespan, as long as Guo Rong does not die, Zhou Guo can maintain stability, and he will have time to grow up and participate in the palace and political struggle to fight for the position of the Ninth Five.
Seeing that the day of Guo Rong's imperial expedition was getting closer and closer, Guo Zongxun had never been able to find a way to help Guo Rong prolong his life, and he had been anxious.
Today, when this earth-shattering conspiracy appeared in front of Guo Zongxun, Guo Zongxun realized that the biggest internal enemy of himself, Guo Rong, and even the entire Zhou State was actually not Zhao Kuangyin, but Li Chongjin's group of old ministers and generals, which may even include his grandfather, Fu Yanqing, the king of Wei.
After crossing over, because he knew this period of history, he formed a subjective hatred for Zhao Kuangyin, in fact, compared with Li Chongjin, the current Zhao Kuangyin is really loyal.
Judging from Guo Rong's current plan, Fu Yanqing, the king of Wei, and Li Chongjin, the Huainan Jiedu, are the key ones for Guo Rong to prevent, so Guo Rong transferred these two people out of Kaifeng, even if these two people return to Kaifeng, they can't make any waves without soldiers and horses.
This is also the sequelae left by the five dynasties and ten kingdoms, if you are yourself, after seizing the country like Zhao Kuangyin, the first thing to do is to eliminate the threat of the meritorious generals who hold military power to their imperial power.
It's good to release the military power with a glass of wine, it was when he met Shi Shouxin, Gao Huaide, and Wang Xianqi who were so obedient, if he met someone who was disobedient, Guo Zongxun believed that he, like Zhao Kuangyin, would never mind killing him with a head.
After listening to Yue Fei and Wei Zhongxian's analysis, Guo Zongxun nodded and continued to ask:
"So, what about the solution to this matter, and what is the result of the discussion between the two of you?"
Wei Zhongxian made a gesture of invitation to Yue Fei, and stood aside and stopped talking, Yue Fei did not give in, and said to Guo Zongxun with his fists:
"The last general was inspired by the four princes and came up with a bold plan, and was about to ask the four princes to decide."
Guo Zongxun said with a smile:
"Why don't you follow the anecdotes of Kong Ming and Zhou Lang in ancient times with General Yue, and write the strategy in the palm of your hand?"
Yue Fei happily obeyed his fate, after coming into contact with the Four Princes these days, he didn't dare to treat the Four Princes as a six-year-old child anymore, and Wei Zhongxian also felt the same way.
The two of them each wrote a strategy on the palm of their hand, spread it out, and smiled at each other.
Yue Fei's palm wrote "Late Night Surprise Attack", and Guo Zongxun's palm wrote "Snow Night Surprise Attack".
There was only one word missing, but the meaning was exactly the same.
"Okay, since this prince and General Yue see the same thing, let's discuss the specific plan, Wei Banban, only you know where the secret valley is at present, so you also have to go to this battle."
"The minions obey."
Guo Zongxun likes Wei Zhongxian's appearance, he doesn't talk much, he is hypocritical in small things, and he is sharp in big things.
After the three of them discussed, Yue Fei withdrew from the tent to make arrangements, Guo Zongxun looked at Wei Zhongxian and said:
"Wei Banban, you said, tomorrow my father will ride that dark cloud covered snow out hunting, according to our analysis, this dark cloud covered snow is a vital part of the whole conspiracy of the Li thief."
"The slave didn't dare to speculate, but after the emperor got the BMW, the interest was very high, it is said that he had not used a few mouthfuls for lunch, so he went to try the horse again, if it wasn't for the fact that the emperor didn't hunt today, I was afraid that it would be ......."
"Wei Companion You are deliberately hiding it, this prince can conclude that his father will definitely not ride the dark clouds and snow to hunt tomorrow, I don't believe that we can bet, how about betting on your Wei Companion's five-year fortune?"
"Master, you just spare the minions, let's stop betting, why don't the minions accompany the master to Sanqingguan?"
Guo Zongxun got up and kicked Wei Zhongxian, scolding:
"Greedy for money, sooner or later one day you will die on this greedy word, don't go and prepare a horse for this prince, the iron bull is not there, you come to lead the horse for this prince."
"The slave obeys, the master, the slave is greedy, but the slave is greedy to be able to stay with the master and be a loyal dog, and the other slaves are greedy and useless, ah...... The master is angry, and the slave will go and prepare a horse for the master......"
This time, Wei Zhongxian really didn't ride a horse, but honestly led the horse and walked on the snow, and it was Guo Zongxun who was sitting proudly.
"I smile proudly, I smile proudly, laugh at the people in the rivers and lakes are not old, I smile proudly, I smile proudly, laugh at how carefree Hongchen is......"
Guo Zongxun hummed the classic pop songs of later generations that Wei Zhongxian couldn't understand, and vaguely felt that Liu Bowen and Liu Banxian were waiting for him to recruit him in Sanqingguan.
When I came to Sanqing Temple, I saw the door of the temple closed from a distance, and in front of the door stood a young Taoist priest who did not have a long beard and could not talk about the fairy wind of Taoist bones, but he was also extraordinary.
Sure enough, after getting closer, the token in Guo Zongxun's hand disappeared after it became hot.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Poor Dao Liu Ji has been waiting for the four princes here for a long time." The young Taoist priest bowed to Guo Zongxun.
The whole god is superb, and the words behind it must be that the poor road looks at the sky at night, what the east and what star shines, and sweeps away the evil spirit that rushes to the sky, and the poor road has a feeling, and it is expected that there will be a noble person to visit today...... Balabala or something.
Well, in fact, Liu Banxian's appearance method of pretending to be a ghost like this, Guo Zongxun still likes it, and it is also a skill to be able to fool him.
"The Taoist chief is polite, since you know that this prince is visiting, why do you still close the mountain gate, do you want to keep this prince out?"
Guo Zongxun didn't get off the horse, he estimated that he didn't need to enter this Taoist temple, and he guessed it when he saw the burden Liu Banxian was carrying behind his back.
"Immeasurable Tianzun, after the poor Dao this voice, there will be no Taoist Liu Ji in the world, and there will be one more scribe Liu Bowen next to the four princes, this mountain gate, the four princes don't enter, the grass people Liu Ji Liu Bowen, see the four princes."
After speaking, Liu Bowen really threw away the dust, took off his robe and threw it in front of the mountain gate, he had already put on a set of scribe's clothes inside, and he didn't pretend to be a ghost, and bowed respectfully to Guo Zongxun.
Wei Zhongxian lowered his head and looked at the surface of his feet and the leg of the horse beside him, and said in his heart, if the fourth prince is not the reincarnation of an immortal, I, Wei Zhongxian, will cut off my head and give it to the fourth prince as a night pot......
