"I ask myself that everything is out of public interest, and there is no evil thought in the slightest."

Back at the mansion, Liu Wenxiu thought back to this meeting and muttered to himself. Speaking of which, Liu Wenxiu wants to be Sun Kewang's second, which is really the biggest nonsense. He did not have this ambition, and what he did during this time was to strengthen Guizhou's defense capabilities. Including the matter of moving the capital, it was also out of public intentions, but when he decided to go up, he did not consider the matter of discussing with Li Dingguo, which was contrary to their original agreement. So much so that even he didn't know how to explain it.

Rough branches and big leaves, this is Liu Wenxiu's true colors, and it is not the first time that he has tasted the pain of frustration. In the Battle of Baoning that year, in order to achieve full success, he couldn't wait to be surrounded on all sides, but as a result, he exposed his weaknesses in front of Wu Sangui; By the time of the Battle of Changde, he had once again ignored the difference in speed between the overland march and the speed of the ships, and the sudden rainstorm had widened the gap.

Back to today, contradictions have appeared, and Li Dingguo completely doesn't want to listen to even a word of explanation, which makes Liu Wenxiu, who originally had the intention to make things clear, even more purposeless.

Perhaps, time can alleviate this seemingly irreconcilable contradiction, but it is precisely time that the Ming Court lacks now. Liu Wenxiu knows this very well, so he will do his best to reorganize troops and horses in Guizhou and appease the soldiers. However, now because of Li Dingguo's misunderstanding, the progress has been delayed indefinitely, which makes him feel depressed.

When he returned to the mansion, he really couldn't eat anything, and he didn't have the heart to do anything, so he went back to his room to rest. The mind was full of old things since the four of them led their troops into Yunnan, the initial unity, and after the death of Ai Nengqi, Sun Kewang, who was supported by Feng Shuangli, began to grow rapidly, and suppressed Li Dingguo in the flag-raising incident on the school ground, officially establishing his dominant position. In the following days, the great counteroffensive in the sixth year of Yongli resulted in discord between Sun and Li, and Li Dingguo turned to march into Liangguang; And he, although he was robbed of military power by Sun Kewang, did not completely tear his face, so there was the Battle of Changde that he led later......

Pile by pile, piece by piece, the past comes to mind, and the four princes of the Great West are now on the verge of cutting off their robes and breaking their righteousness. It seems that after Zhang Xianzhong's death, they fell under the curse of infighting.

After thinking too much, his spirit became more and more tired, and Liu Wenxiu gradually fell asleep. It's just that before going to bed, my mind is full of thoughts, and after falling asleep, it is indispensable to think about dreams.

"Qing led the army to pursue, Shi Sun Kewang only had dozens of horses, how did he escape?"

At that time, when Sun Kewang was defeated, he did not expect him to take a small road. The ministers led many soldiers and pursued them only from the main road. When Panjiang asked carefully, he put the bridge soldier cloud: It has never been from here. Knowing that he ran away from the small road, he had to still chase down the road, and it was expected that there would be less than 100 people immediately, and there would be horses everywhere that would be changed. Overnight. The minister only chases one stop a day, so he can't catch up. When the minister arrived in Guizhou, Feng Shuangliyun had been gone for four days. That is, if you send troops to chase it again, it is out of reach, and you can hope to get rid of it. ”

"If you can't catch him, you shouldn't chase him that day. If you can't chase it now, you will be able to go elsewhere for the backlash, and I am afraid that the disaster in southern Yunnan will not be far away. ”

However, in the second watch, Liu Wenxiu woke up from the nightmare. Sweating profusely, but he knew very well that the picture that Fang had just presented in his mind was not a conjecture, but a scene that really happened when His Majesty saw him, Emperor Yongli asked him how he let Sun Kewang go, and his answer, even if it was reasonable, was refuted by the Son of Heaven in the end, and even came up with such incoherent words.

"The emperor is inclined to Li Dingguo."

Yes, if it weren't for the greater trust in Li Dingguo among the two kings, he would never have been recalled from Guizhou so easily. And His Majesty's reply when he saw him seemed incoherent, but in fact it only showed the attitude of the Son of Heaven, that is, he Liu Wenxiu was no longer trusted!

"The key is still on Li Dingguo."

Liu Wenxiu asked himself, he did not have the monstrous merit of liberating the emperor from the cage of An Long, nor did he have the great military exploits of Li Dingguo to pout the king twice and recover Guangdong. If the emperor chooses one of the two of them, he will definitely choose Li Dingguo, not his, and he still knows this.

But even so, Liu Wenxiu still couldn't help but be discouraged. It's just that while he has a depressed mind, he is also self-explanatory, and he will talk to Li Dingguo after a while. After all, there was no contradiction between him and Li Dingguo before this, and it was not like Li Dingguo and Sun Kewang that had been superimposed for many years before they came to the point where the net was broken.

With such thoughts, Liu Wenxiu decided to keep a low profile for a while, just to do a cold treatment. It's a pity that he doesn't need to do anything, just staying in Kunming City, even if he doesn't inquire about anything, the news is constantly drilling into his ears.

"He called his soldiers and horses in his headquarters Jin soldiers, and called those officers and soldiers who had followed Sun Kewang Qin soldiers?"

"Yes, Your Highness. His Royal Highness the King of Jin is not only like this, but also treats merit and rewards, crimes, punishments, appointments, and even the payment of military food and salaries......"

After the war, Liu Wenxiu reorganized Sun Kewang's old department in Guizhou, and Li Dingguo put more energy into chasing Wang Shangli and other departments in Yunnan.

Last year, not long after Li Dingguo complained of illness, Wang Shangli, who was cornered, committed suicide in Tengchong. However, Li Dingguo, because he was dissatisfied with the imperial court's agreement to move the capital, still delayed a long time in the face of the Son of Heaven's kind words and persuasion. As a result, when he came back, he summoned Liu Wenxiu back from Guizhou. Of course, this is good, and to put it mildly, Liu Wenxiu was relieved of his military power and let him live in Kunming.

After a long time of tossing, the reorganization work on the Yunnan side has not been carried out for a long time. Now, Liu Wenxiu hears that this is not only not unfolded, but even played with differential treatment, reminiscent of the imperial court's reward and punishment for the merits and crimes of internal strife in the first month, which is obviously also from Li Dingguo's handwriting, which can be said to be in the same line.

"It turns out that it is not me Liu Wenxiu who wants to be Sun Kewang's second, but you Li Dingguo!"

Now that the internal troubles have been eliminated and the external troubles are even worse, it is all the more important to unite in order to have a chance to prepare for the storm. Liu Wenxiu did this in Guizhou, but Li Dingguo did the opposite in Yunnan, which is really surprising. But thinking of Sun Kewang, didn't he also squeeze out Li Dingguo like this back then, but now it seems that Li Dingguo was taken up by Sun Kewang.

Li Dingguo treated them so differently, and those soldiers who were originally subordinate to Sun Kewang and who still had some thoughts of making meritorious contributions after this infighting were naturally more and more detached from morality. Liu Wenxiu didn't know that later history books had recorded this history that "Sun Kewang's soldiers were lazy", but he was old in military affairs after all, and the reason was still clear.

"No, I have to go and explain to Your Majesty, I can't let Li Dingguo come so nonsense."

Liu Wenxiu hurriedly asked for a decree to enter the palace, but naturally came back with a nose. In the final analysis, the emperor trusts Li Dingguo more, and Liu Wenxiu, since he is no longer trusted, what he says and what he does is naturally in vain.

"If you retreat from the wolf and enter the tiger, the king of Jin will be defeated."

When the people around him said this, he was completely discouraged. In the following days, Liu Wenxiu has completely entered a state of chaos, and he will not go to the court on weekdays, and when it comes to the big court meeting and not showing up, he will go through the motions. Even the headquarters of the Shu Palace, he handed over all the soldiers and horses to the guard Chen Jian to take care of, and it was even better than when he was idle and scattered by Sun Kewang when he went into the mountains to learn the Tao - after all, many people were born for the purpose of entering the WTO, but they gave up completely in such a mess.

It didn't take long for Liu Wenxiu to become bedridden. Seeing this, Yongli and Li Dingguo also visited in person, were repeatedly relieved, and sent doctors to treat them.

However, Liu Wenxiu has a heart disease and there is no cure. On April 25, he died of illness in vain. Before dying, he said: "Northern soldiers, the country is in danger, please enter Shu to serve the soldiers of the thirteen families." The minister has 160,000 yuan in cellar gold, which can be paid. The wives of the ministers and their families should be whipped to obey the king. Then he went out of the camp in Shaanxi and Luo, and turned defeat into success. The heart of this minister is also the one who dies and looks at it. ”
