The so-called second prince is Sun Wei.

That is, before Lu Xun left, the second brother who was already an adult mentioned to him by the crown prince Sun Deng.

Hearing Gu Yong's words, Lu Xun couldn't help but be overjoyed:

"Will the prime minister be released?"

Gu Yong glanced at Lu Xun, but did not answer his question:

"Bo Yan, I have my own plans for this matter, and I will leave it to me later, so you still don't get involved."

Lu Xun was anxious when he heard it:

"Prime Minister, why is that? The responsibility of the prince is not ......"

Before he finished speaking, Gu Yong interrupted him:

"That also depends on where it is! If you are in the court, then this is your duty, and you can say whatever you want. ”

"But you are now in Wuchang, east of Yuzhang, all in your hands, if you meddle in such a matter of the DPRK and China again, what do you want Your Majesty to think?"

"What's more, I am the prime minister, in charge of all affairs in the country, you and I join forces to intercede for the prince, do you want to help the prince, or do you want to force the prince to die?"

Lu Xun is still a smart person after all, and when he heard Gu Yong's words, he was drenched in cold sweat on the spot:

"Fortunately, Xun came to see the prime minister first, otherwise, he would have made a big mistake!"

Gu Yong also sighed a little:

"Now the court is not the same as before, everything must be careful."

Lu Xun knew that Gu Yong was reminding himself, but he still asked in a low voice:

"The prime minister may tell Xun, how to use these two princes to test Your Majesty?"

Seeing Gu Yong's brows furrowed, Lu Xun explained with a wry smile:

"Prime Minister, it's not that I have to get involved, but that this matter was caused by me, if the second prince is involved in right and wrong......"

Lu Xun paused, and then sighed again, "That's not my intention." ”

Gu Yong sighed, and secretly said that Lu Boyan was not in the court, which was really a blessing for him.

Otherwise, with his temperament, he doesn't know when he was calculated.

The battle in the royal family, what is not intended to be?

Who has nothing to do and wants to go to fratricide?

It's just that Gu Yong is naturally not easy to say this kind of thing.

"Bo Yan rest assured. My plan is just to ask His Majesty to knight the second prince on the grounds that the second prince is an adult. ”

"Knighthood?"

Lu Xun didn't understand.

Gu Yong nodded: "That's right." Your Majesty's sons, when they reach adulthood, they naturally want to be crowned kings and knights, and they will be crowned countries. The second prince has grown up, and he is not a prince, but he stays in Wuchang with the prince, what kind of system has he become? ”

If His Majesty regards Wuchang as the prince's fief, then what is the matter with an ordinary prince staying in the prince's fief for a long time?

Could it be that the crown prince can be the same as an ordinary prince?

He looked at Lu Xun and slowly explained:

"If the crown prince stays in Wuchang, but the third prince is in Jianye, but His Majesty has not thought it through for the time being, then he will agree to the matter of the second prince becoming the king and taking up the country."

"Since [the apex] His Majesty has no intention of moving the throne, then as long as the third prince grows up, we can take the second prince as an example and let the third prince take the country. In this way, even if the prince does not return to Jianye, he will be fine. ”

When Lu Xun heard this, he finally understood: "I see." ”

Sure enough, this matter between the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China still has to be solved by the people of the DPRK and China.

It's just that he just breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly thought of another possibility, subconsciously looked around, and then asked in a whisper that could only be heard by the two of them:

"Prime Minister, if yes, I mean if yes, what if Your Majesty doesn't allow the second prince to be knighted?"

When Gu Yong heard this, his face darkened.

He lowered his eyes, like an old monk, and was silent for a long time.

It wasn't until Lu Xun thought he was asleep that he said in a heavy tone:

"There is no if, the country of Wu is not the country of Wu of His Majesty alone, but the country of Wu of the people of Jiangdong."

Lu Xun's body shook slightly.

Of course, he understood what Gu Yong meant by this.

After all, at the beginning, Lu Xun himself was one of the first people to propose that Sun Quan be the emperor.

Because only Sun Quan is the emperor, the Jiangdong family can be regarded as equal to the Central Plains, otherwise, they can only be one head shorter forever.

Regardless of whether this heritage can be compared with the Central Plains family, but at least nominally, it will not be low.

Otherwise, even the barbarians in Shu can be a head taller than them, so how can they swallow this breath.

Reputation is very important.

Families often rely on fame for their food.

If one day, the emperor of Wu can enter the Central Plains in the north and conquer the world, then the Jiangdong family is the top family in the world.

If you don't have a dream, what's the point of living?

It can be said that from the moment Sun Quan became emperor, the Jiangdong family was completely bound to the Sun family.

No matter how you fight in the nest, it is a family matter, and it must be highly unified externally, at least more than before.

In the future, whether the Central Plains family will continue to be the first in the world, or the Jiangdong family will come from behind, or the Shuzhong family will turn over and become kings, it depends on which Wu Wei and Shu families can survive to the end.

Just if you want to survive to the end, then you must minimize internal friction.

The battle for storage location has always been one of the most common internal frictions.

Lu Xun was also from a family, so he could naturally understand what Gu Yong's words meant.

But that's about it.

What Gu Yong thought in his heart was far more profound than Lu Xun's.

Lu Xun is the son-in-law of the Sun family, and he was personally cultivated by Sun Quan.

There are some things that he may not be aware of, or deliberately not think about.

But Gu Yong, as the prime minister, understands one thing very well: Wu Guo, the current majesty, is not so good at talking to the Jiangdong family that pushed him to the throne.

After all, Sun Ce killed the family in Jiangdong and bled like a river.

This hatred, the Jiangdong family really dares to say that it has been forgotten, does Sun Quan dare to believe it?

However, the battle of Chibi burned the last hope of the Jiangdong family that did not want to cooperate with the Sun family.

So the Jiangdong family had to pinch their noses and recognize this surnamed Sun.

This feeling, this taste, is really like eating with fine wine, extremely sour.

Lao Tzu finished eating, you are also finished, and now you want to learn from your short-lived brother, do you want to do something?

That's right, in Gu Yong's view, Sun Quan's motives must not be so simple if he wants to make a move on the storage position.

It's only been a few years since Zhang Wen was?

How could Gu Yong not remember?

Your Majesty, hold a grudge!

The crime against Zhang Wending back then was: He Tu was ugly and coerced dissent.

It is almost said that Zhang Wen intends to rebel.

The final result was that the Zhang family was dismissed from office, and the exiled was exiled.

This majesty simply took advantage of the matter of Ji Yan to clean up the Zhang family, one of the four families in Jiangdong.

As prime minister, Gu Yong's political sensitivity far exceeds that of Lu Xun.

With the battle for storage positions, who can guarantee that His Majesty will take the opportunity to clean up again?

After all, there are old precedents in the past, so Gu Yong naturally doesn't want this situation to happen again.

Even if it's just a possibility.

I can't afford to hurt it!

Gu Yong didn't dare to say these thoughts to Lu Xun easily.

Among the four major families, the Zhang family has been washed once, the Lu family is the in-laws of the Sun family, and the only ones left are the Gu family and the Zhu family.

If it really wants to develop into what he imagined, the Gu family has a half chance of being targeted by the emperor.

How dare Gu Yong take this risk?

"The storage position is related to the country, and the country is protected, that is, in Baojiangdong, you can rest assured, as the prime minister, I will have a sense of proportion."

Seeing the look of struggle on Lu Xun's face, Gu Yong comforted him:

"Listen to me, when you go back, just rest assured, don't get involved in this matter easily."

Lu Xun listened to Gu Yong's words, let out a sigh, nodded and said, "Xun understands." ”

That being said, but after Lu Xun returned to Wuchang and told Sun Deng the news that the prime minister had taken over the matter, he still secretly inquired about the news on Jianye's side.

Gu Yong's movements were very fast, and after a few days, he played Sun Quan, saying that Sun Ji was "smart and physical, and he was still new", and it was advisable to enter the king according to the convention.

Sun Quan unexpectedly refused.

When he got the news, Lu Xun's heart was chuckled, and when he remembered what Gu Yong said, his heart began to sink.

But as the prime minister, how could Gu Yong give up so easily?

Soon, the second important minister of the court, Shang Shufu shot again:

"The rise of the emperor, do not praise the relatives, to the light of the group, so Lu Wei in Zhou, the crown of the princes, the five kings of the high emperor, listed in the Han Dynasty, so the Ping Dynasty, for the country town guard."

First, the practice of the ancient emperors Zhou Tianzi and Han Gaozu is listed, indicating that this is an act of respecting the closest relatives and glorifying the virtues of the imperial palace.

"The Marquis of Jianchang is intelligent and intelligent, talented and civil, and he is in the classical system, and he should be named. His Majesty is humble and light, and he is not willing to be the same, the size of the group of squatters, and the salt is used in the city. ”

Then he said that Sun Shu has both civil and military skills, and according to the canonical system, he wants to be crowned king, but His Majesty is more modest and unwilling to follow the old example, which is understandable.

"Fang Jin is a traitor, the golden drum has not been killed, the heart is minions, but the relatives are virtuous. He discussed with Prime Minister Yong and others, and Xian Yi was the general of the town army, and he was appointed as a home remedy to glorify the cause. ”

In the end, the conversation changed: It's just that now the world is in chaos, traitors are everywhere, and there are more than soldiers, and those who can be fully trusted are only relatives and good generals.

If Your Majesty is unwilling to crown Sun Ji as king, he will also give him the title of the general of the town army, and grant him another place to glorify the great cause.

Sun Quan did not agree to Prime Minister Gu Yong to give Sun Jian the title of king, if he refused Shang Shu's proposal again, it would not only arouse the suspicion of the ministers, but even his son would be dissatisfied.

Therefore, he had no choice but to relent, and promised to appoint the eighteen-year-old Sun Xi as the general of the town army, grant him a false festival, open a separate government office, move out of Wuchang, and take up his post in Banzhou (that is, near Jiujiang, Jiangxi). ）

Lu Xun learned about it, but he was still a little unrelieved.

It is a bit strange to be crowned the general of the town army instead of the king.

However, the second prince left it to himself, which can be regarded as an opening.

As long as the time is ripe, it is reasonable to let His Majesty crown the second prince as the king and Banzhou as the country.

Sun Quan didn't know that the prime minister under his command and the general actually joined forces to play himself.

Compared to this, his attention had already shifted to Hefei, and his thoughts became stronger and stronger.

Because after the news of the Battle of Xiaoguan came, Sun Quan recalled the Yinbo Rebellion and the Wuxi Barbarian Rebellion in Wuling, and he couldn't guess that this was a strategy designed by Cao Rui.

The purpose is to drag Jianye and Jingzhou to prevent himself from going north to deal with Shu at a critical time.

I actually let the other party's design succeed!

How can you tell him to swallow this breath?

At this time, between Jianye and Hefei, the people fleeing from each other are constantly every day, otherwise there would not be Han Zong in the front and Yin Fan in the back.

Sun Quan then began to send people north to inquire about the news about Hefei to see what arrangements the Wei State had made in the Jianghuai area after Cao Xiu's death.

I don't know if he was really lucky, and the news that came back from the meticulous work aroused his great interest.

That is, the relationship between the general of Zhengdong and Wang Ling, the assassin of Yangzhou, was not harmonious, and Wang Ling often slandered the party with the party.

After knowing this, Sun Quan was overjoyed and began to lay out the plan.

In late spring and early summer, Jiangnan seems to have a fiery atmosphere because of the actions of all parties.

In Longyou, it was the time when the temperature was pleasant.

Feng Junhou stayed in Jicheng for a long time, talking about military affairs with General Zhao during the day, and talking about the script with Zhang Xiaosi at night.

It's just that Zhang Xiaosi's physical fitness is not as good as Guan Ji, and when he first got acquainted, he was reluctant to be so wonderful, so he actually began to make up for his body.

Just as Feng Yong was about to leave Jicheng and return to Pingxiang, a person suddenly came from Pingxiang to see him, which surprised him.

"Wei Ran? Why are you here? ”

The person who came was none other than Zhao Guang's deputy general, and he was also the general who commanded Hu Renyi's subordinates, Yang Qian.

Yang Wan's complexion looked very bad:

"Brother, the younger brother is just going to tell the elder brother that the younger brother is going to Yinping,"

"Yin Ping? What happened to Yin Ping? Don't be in a hurry, you sit down and speak slowly. ”

Feng Yong looked at him with an anxious look on his face, so he comforted him gently.

Yang Wan picked up the water bowl on the table and drank it with a clatter, it could be seen that he was in a hurry.

"News came from Yinping that the adult was sick."

"You mean Yang Taishou?"

Yang Wan's adult is Yang Ju, the second generation of the White Horse King of Yinping Wudu.

During the Battle of Longyou, Yang Ju used his connections to make contributions to the strong end of the Wudu of Yinping, and later appointed Yinping Taishou and used his old identity to appease Yinping Qiang.

The "last piece of the puzzle" movement in Shu that Zhuge Lao Demon carried out at this time was to penetrate Hanjia County from Yueshan to the north, and the other was to advance south from Yinping and threaten Wenshan County.

In the end, the people of these two counties were eaten away.

At this critical time, Yang Ju suddenly fell ill, which is not a good thing.

"Is Yang Taishou's illness very serious?"

Feng Yong asked with concern.

Yang Wan nodded and said worriedly:

"The adult is in good health, I didn't expect this disease, but I was bedridden, and I have been sending people over these days, urging me to go back quickly, but I'm afraid of ......"

"Don't worry, I'll send someone to Nanxiang right away and ask them to send the best medical staff."

Yang Wan smiled bitterly:

"Don't hide it from my brother, my sister-in-law has already sent someone over when she learned about it, but the younger brother looks at the tone of the adult, I'm afraid it's Shou Yuan's ......"

Birth, old age, sickness and death, human nature.

According to Yang Wan's statement, Yang Ju is afraid that his life is approaching.

If this is the case, no matter how clever the medical worker is, there is no good way.

"It's useless for you to think nonsense here, but you will disturb your mind and hurt your body. Yang Taishou's body is good, let's wait until you reach Yinping. ”

Feng Yong knocked on the table, "Okay, I see you're also tired, go down and rest first." Tomorrow I will give you my mount, and the journey will be faster. ”

"Thank you, brother."

"Brothers, what is there to thank you for?"

Feng Yong waved his hand.

After Yang Qian went down to rest, Feng Yong turned around and went into the backyard and instructed Zhang Xingyi:

"Siniang, help me find a map of that area of Jincheng."

Hanjia County and Wenshan County are just west of Shu County.

If Yinping County is replaced, then he also has to make some preparations.

After all, he drove the Li family's twelve lang there, and was ready to force the Li family's big house to take out the old book and educate the Yi people in that area.

"Siniang, you said that if I recommended Yang Weiran as Yinping Taishou, would the prime minister agree?"

Feng Yong looked at the map, pondered for a moment, and asked.

"Yang Weiran also made a contribution in the battle of Xiaoguan, and he is qualified to be this Taishou."

Zhang Xingyi sat on the side, drinking red date soup, "But what about Hu Qiyi from the school captain's mansion?" Isn't he the arm of the second brother of the Zhao family? ”

"It doesn't matter. Just wait for Liangzhou, that Liu Hun in the Governor's Mansion, is it possible that he can still run? ”

As soon as Zhang Xingyi heard the name Liu Hun, his eyes suddenly turned bonely:

Hey, this little prince of the Huns, didn't he beg me at the beginning, and then became Ah Lang's long-term follower?

If he hadn't been Ah Lang's long-term follower, he wouldn't have had such good luck in the end to be able to win the identity of a marquis.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaosi suddenly showed a little fox-like smile, and his eyes began to narrow:

"The concubine forgot about him."

Hmph, what about the two great cavalry generals of the Han Dynasty, sister, you can't even give Liu Hun's military power, right?
