In recent days, with Yuan Yao's series of high-profile actions, he has also been completely under the surveillance of the high-level of the Xiliang Army.

During this period, Li Dao was suspicious of his behavior of not persuading him to send troops to the east, but to visit the ministers of the court, or to go to the Taiyuan Academy to gather with all the scholars.

He was now completely confused about what Yuan Yao wanted.

For a while, Li Dao was a little annoyed and regretted agreeing to Jia Xu's resignation and return to his hometown.

This...... If Jia Xu plotted from the side, he would definitely be able to see through Yuan Yao's conspiracy.

……

And just after the high-level officials of Xiliang focused their eyes on Yuan Yao, they neglected to take precautions against the palace and the Son of Heaven.

Because the Xiliang army broke Chang'an at the beginning and took control of the government not long ago, the political situation was still unstable, Li Dao and others did not completely tear their faces with the Son of Heaven and the princes, and still retained the most basic etiquette.

As a result, the control of the palace is not so strict.

Since Cui Zhouping conspired with Yuan Yao, he returned home and secretly discussed countermeasures with Ma Yu, who was in the service, how to take the opportunity to enter the palace to face the saint and quietly ask the Son of Heaven for the edict of King Qin.

In the end, it was agreed that Cui Zhouping had a good plan.

Cui Mansion.

Inside the secret room.

"My nephew will quietly enter the palace to ask for a visit to His Majesty during this time, and place a set of court clothes with hidden sleeves in His Majesty's bedroom, and then my uncle will take the opportunity to quietly return to the palace with His Majesty to ask for the edict of King Qin, and place it in the dark sleeves I designed."

"In this way, even if you are interrogated by Xiliang's ears, you can still get through the customs in confusion, this is the edict of the clothes belt!"

After that, Cui Zhouping slowly got up and walked to a place, took out the court clothes with both hands and held them in front of Ma Yu, and said solemnly: "Uncle will take the time to go to the tailor shop to design a set of this type of clothing in the past few days. ”

"Good! I wrote it down for my uncle. ”

The two of them finalized the plan after a short discussion, but at this moment, Ma Yu couldn't help but show a trace of doubt on his face, and asked: "Virtuous nephew, is this really going to be so troublesome?" ”

"If there is no edict from King Qin, it is impossible to contact Han Sui, Ma Teng and other Liangzhou forces to raise troops?"

Seeing Ma Yu's doubts, Cui Zhouping groaned, and then explained carefully: "Uncle, now that the Xiliang Army has broken through Chang'an, the momentum is threatening the counties and counties of Sanfu Longyou, and the strength of the princes of Liangzhou is too scattered, like a plate of scattered sand, how can you give birth to the courage to unite and attack the Xiliang Army?" ”

"I'm afraid that even if Ma Teng and Han Sui want to respond, they can't do anything."

When the words fell here, he suddenly changed his words, and then said: "But if there is an edict of King Qin, the meaning can be very different. ”

"At least Han Sui, Ma Teng and others have a legitimate reason to gather the Liangzhou princes to raise troops to attack the Western Liang Army, and secondly, they can also be strong and courageous for the Liangzhou princes."

"Let them know that they are not rebels, but righteous soldiers who represent the Han court to defend the glory of the Han Dynasty by begging the traitors and thieves."

In the end, Cui Zhouping's face turned pale again, and he said solemnly: "Of course, the most important thing is to let the Son of Heaven promise in the edict that after the matter is completed, all the heroes who beg for thieves will be canonized according to their merits." ”

"The people of Liangzhou are located in the border area, if they are placed in the Taiping period, it is extremely difficult for them to enter the court as officials, and the edict of King Qin is also equivalent to taking a reassuring pill for them, and they are willing to stimulate the heart of fame and fortune in their chests, so they are duty-bound to raise troops."

"Even if we can promise all the princes to increase their officials and become knights, but the so-called Son of Heaven has to promise it personally and present it above the edict to show the right to speak."

For a while, with Cui Zhouping's patient explanation, Ma Yu realized why it was so complicated and difficult to ask for the edict of the king.

"It seems that the virtuous nephew is more thoughtful, but these matters are unexpected, but the uncle and his colleagues did not expect it, so the virtuous nephew appeared in time and took remedial measures for this plan."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid that this strategy will most likely fail in the end."

Hearing Cui Zhouping's analysis, Ma Yu also had an epiphany, and he immediately realized that there were many loopholes in this plan, if it was not remedied in time, the hole would have been filled.

Ma Yu is really worried about the possibility of whether this plot can be used in the future.

"Uncle is too worried!"

Hearing this, Cui Zhouping showed a solemn look, and arched his hand: "With the closeness between you and your father, your nephew should help as a junior, not to mention, this is for the country and the people, and it is a major matter related to the Han society. ”

A strong and powerful words, but Ma Yu on the side was overjoyed, the smile on his face was extremely bright, and the smile seemed to be closed, so he twisted his beard and said with a smile: "Zhou Ping has the ambition to serve the Han, presumably Cui Gong will also rest in peace under Jiuquan!" ”

"Uncle praised it."

Seeing that Ma Yu trusted himself so much, Cui Zhouping suddenly felt a little unbearable...... In this way, he was deceived and the rest of the ministers of the DPRK and China who participated in the plot......

Helping to participate in the planning of the Liangzhou princes to raise troops was not to eradicate Li Dao and other traitors at all, but to enable Yuan Yao's plan to divide the generals of Western Liang to be implemented safely.

As long as Ma Teng and others can raise troops to invade Sanfu and order the Xiliang Army to send a large army to quell the rebellion, then Yuan Yao's plan to divide and disintegrate the Xiliang Army can be gradually realized.

At that time, it no longer matters whether Ma Teng and others can break through Chang'an and eradicate the traitors.

"Uncle, I'm sorry, for the sake of the young master's plan and great cause, Jun can only choose to let you down."

For a while, Cui Zhou blamed himself calmly, but when he thought of Yuan Yao's great cause, he suddenly became firm.

Because, he has decided to officially join the Yuan camp after returning from Guanzhong this time.

At this moment, Ma Yu was still immersed in joy, and he didn't notice the change in Cui Zhouping's expression at all.

He is still excited that Cui Jun has the ambition to serve the country and the people.

Next.

In order to give Cui Jun the opportunity to get close to the Son of Heaven from time to time, Ma Yu began to secretly imitate the ministers and persuade them to promote Cui Zhouping as the Taifu.

Since today's son is young and has no heirs yet, the Taifu will be able to enter the palace to counsel the young son of heaven Liu Xie.

This is the plan that Ma Yu finalized after thinking about it.

If Cui Zhouping wants to freely enter and leave the deep palace under the eyes and ears of Li Dao and others, then this is the only way to avoid suspicion.

On the other hand.

Cui Zhouping is not an important minister of the imperial court, and the resistance to electing him as a prince will not be too great.

After the ministers were contacted, Ma Yu unanimously put forward the idea of canonizing Cui Zhouping as the Taifu and was responsible for teaching the Son of Heaven.

But he found that the ministers seemed to have discussed it, and they actually gave up their hands and said: "Ma Shizhong's words are very good, and the ministers agree." ”

It's good that the ministers agreed to it alone, but at the critical moment, Taiwei Huangfu Song, who Ma Yu did not contact first, generously said: "Your Majesty, Ma Shizhong's words are seconded by the old minister!" ”

"The late Cui Gong's second son, Zhou Ping, was smart and studious since he was a child, and since he served as the Taishou of Xihe, he also rectified the law and order in the county, persuaded the farmers to teach agriculture, and made the people in the county extremely rich and made great achievements."

"Canonize him as the Taifu and be responsible for teaching Your Majesty, the minister can rest assured."

For a while, with the participation of Huangfu Song, the matter was basically settled.

Li Dao couldn't even find a chance to refuse.

After all, Huangfu Song's prestige has long been lost in the world, and his advice can basically influence the decision of the Son of Heaven.

Li Dao glared at Huangfu Song angrily, and then left viciously.

After Li Dao, Guo Yan, Fan Chou and others left one after another, Liu Xie, the son of heaven who was only twelve years old, said in a slightly immature tone: "Since the Taiwei seconded the proposal, then I will play it accurately!" ”

"Your Majesty."

Seeing that the dust had settled on this matter, Ma Yu's hanging heart calmed down a little.

He proposed this, and the most worrying thing was that Li Dao and others forcibly refused, but because of Huangfu Song's kick, the matter was successfully passed.

Ma Yu couldn't help but cast a grateful look at him for a while.
