Chapter 55: Commanded by Heaven
Luo Xun didn't think about it for too long, and when he came, An Xiuming gave him great authority, and it can be said that as long as the requirements are not too excessive, they can almost be satisfied. According to the current status quo, even if he appoints another Yangzhou assassin, he is just an empty general, facing the fate of being hollowed out, it is better to go with the water, follow Gu Yun's wishes, but the confrontation and tension between the court and the gate valve caused by Gu Zhuo's death.
This is a helpless thing, the four surnames of Wu Jun have been entrenched in Yangzhou for too many years, and even An Zidao can't solve the problem of the big tail, not to mention that An Xiuming's ass has not yet sat firmly. If you can exchange the official position of Yangzhou Assassin for the full support of Gu Lu Zhu Zhang, it will be a good deal no matter how you look at it.
Leaving the Taishou Mansion, Luo Xun went to see Wang Fu and brought him Xiao Xunqi's handwritten letter, which contained all kinds of praises and rewards, ordering him to take root in Wu County, keep an eye on every move here, and never slack off. Later, he met Li Erniu again, and passed on the intention to seal him as General Fubo and Sima of Yangzhou Governor's Mansion, which was promoted from the sixth rank to the fifth grade, and was in charge of the military affairs of the Fuzhou soldiers, which was regarded as officially entering the middle stage of the ruling class, and departed from the low level of the common people and the poor family.
Li Erniu's tears and snot were grateful to Dade, which made Luo Xun very satisfied, and felt that this barbarian could be used to become a great weapon to balance Gu Yun.
Since ancient times, kings have loved silly big people, and what they have obtained is to be straight and loyal. But stupid big people can also deceive people, such as Li Erniu, who is very lively, where is he so stupid as he is now?
In order to avoid Gu Yun's disgust, Luo Xun only made an appointment to meet Wang Fu and Li Erniu, and the other officials did not have much contact, only stayed in Wu County for two days, and immediately returned to Beijing to resume his life.
Luo Xun just left on the front foot, He Wei and the others arrived on the back foot, and they were reunited after a long absence, and they had some sighs. The light in He Wei's eyes couldn't be hidden, and he said with a smile: "Qilang, when you and I first met in the guest building, did you ever think about today?" ”
At that time, Xu You did not have a detailed plan for the future, thinking that the enemy was just the prince, but it was also difficult to overthrow the prince, but what He Wei wanted to do was to subvert the entire An dynasty.
Thinking about it at this time, the experience of these years, just like the time he planned back then, is like a script written by a master, with occasional mistakes, but after all, it is still moving towards the ending.
Xu You teased: "Sometimes I want to cut your head open to see what it looks like......
He Wei touched the hair oil head that he didn't know how many days he hadn't washed, and said helplessly: "Don't say this kind of thing in the future, Fenghu and Winter Solstice They know that you are joking, but how many parts will be under Qilang's command in the future, I can't guarantee that someone wants to please you and really cut off my head......"
Xu You laughed and said, "I thought you weren't afraid of death......
Zuo Yan next to him curiously took the heirloom jade seal and looked at it again and again, and said: "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity...... Is this really the work of He's Bi? ”
The jade seal of the country, thousands of years of various legends have added a bit of mystery to it, lost in the war many times, and many times abruptly reappeared in the world, after the Wuhu Rebellion can be passed to the hands of the An family, it is also regarded as the fate of the Chinese ethnic group.
Dong Solstice also felt curious, and said: "Didn't you say that when Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, the jade seal of the country was broken and made up with gold?" This is good, there is no missing corner......"
"Blue jade, mantis, six sides, fish and bird seals, Qin passed on to Han, Han passed on to Wei, when Emperor Wei died was smuggled out of the palace by a eunuch hidden in his belly, and transferred to Jiangdong, dedicated to An's. The origin can be examined, the jade is warm and luster, and it should not be a fake. As for the compensation for the lack of corners, it is seconded by posterity, and it is not enough to rely on. ”
When it comes to antiquities, He Wei is a great expert, his fingertips gently rubbed the four words of Jishou Yongchang, the corners of his lips sneered slightly, and said: "The emperors of all dynasties have taken the jade seal of the country as a symbol, and those who ascended the throne without this jade seal were ridiculed as the son of heaven on the tabula rasa. Gained, ordered by the sky, lost, the number of qi will be exhausted, so the false countries often copy the private system, Yuan Wei said that it has a seal, Yao Liang also said that the seal of the country is in his own hands, the world can not distinguish the authenticity, in fact, the real Qin seal, it is the piece that Qilang brought back from Jinling. In this way, if you are ordered by heaven, shouldn't it be on Shichiro? ”
Dong Solstice's eyes lit up, and he looked at Xu You, and even his breath became short. Zuo Yan's heart also moved, but he didn't show anything abnormal. Only Qingming is indifferent, for him, Xu You is the king of the people, and there is no difference.
After gossiping, He Wei asked Li Erniu and said, "Does Qilang think he is credible?" ”
Xu You smiled: "Li Erniu seems to be rude, but he is actually a smart person, I asked him to stand still, and wait for the situation to be clear before expressing his position, as long as he is not a fool, he knows that there is no danger in doing so." It's Wang Fu, I don't dare to believe it, Sili Mansion has too many ways to secretly transmit information, if he secretly communicates with Xiao Xunqi behind our backs, it will be a big trouble after all. ”
Dong Solstice said fiercely: "Why don't you kill him?" ”
Xu You shook his head and said, "Killing him will cause the Jinling side to be vigilant, and the gains outweigh the losses." In the twenty-two prefectures of Jiangdong, An Xiuming's envoys may not be able to persuade all, there are always those subordinates who are loyal to the first emperor will come out to resist, the imperial court wants to quickly stabilize the situation, nothing more than to kill an example, whoever dares to take the lead, will clean up first, both in the name of righteousness, and the power of the Chinese army, and can not compete with leisure. Why did I let Gu Yun exchange Yangzhou Thorn History for being obedient, that is, to avoid becoming a bird......"
Zuo Yan thought more deeply, and said: "But if you all wait and see like this, sooner or later you will be ......defeated by An Xiuming."
"So, we have to find a top with an iron head!"
Xu You said, looking at the northwest with a smile, they didn't understand the meaning of Tou Tie, but they probably understood what Xu You was referring to, and it was none other than King Jiangxia.
He Wei said resolutely: "That's a later story, let's not mention it for now, we still have to keep an eye on Wang Fu at the moment." Yangzhou Crouching Tiger Division arranged for people to go in from the winter solstice, and Wang Fu also had people around him, day and night, and he would never leave. All correspondence with Jinling can only be released after the winter solstice, otherwise, it is better to kill Wang Fu now to get rid of future troubles. ”
Xu You and Wang Fu have gotten along very well over the years, but now is not the time to talk about friendship, and then find Wang Fu to vaguely say He Wei's opinion, and said kindly: "Fake Zuo, it's not that I can't trust you, it's a big matter, it's hard to ensure that there are people around you who are covered with lard, and take risks for the wealth in front of you." At that time, I'm afraid I want to protect the fake Zuo is also not caught, it is better to take precautions, take precautions, this is the best of both worlds, and I hope to be considerate! ”
Wang Fu has actually been dissatisfied with Xiao Xunqi for a long time, and when the changes in Beiguli were made, he reprimanded him in disregard of the facts, if it weren't for the fact that there was no suitable person to take over, and Meng Xingchun explained from the side, maybe he would be dismissed and investigated. Later, the Ming Wu Heavenly Palace was exterminated, and the lord ordered to praise him, but the Sili Mansion did not reward him, and only punished him with merit and demerits. And the price offered this time was just to wait for Yangzhou, and he was transferred back to the capital to serve as a secretary.
There are more than 30 fake Zuo in Sili Mansion, but there are only two people in Si Li, Wang Fu is not a fool, it is estimated that Xiao Xunqi's promise to all fake Zuo is like this, rather than being suspicious of Xu You and losing his life immediately, it is better to try his best to surrender to sincerity, and then make peace with Sili Mansion.
The wind is surging, it is the time to seek wealth!
Give it a go!
Before Wang Fu could express his position, Fang Zhou, who was standing behind him, said angrily: "Xu Langjun, don't deceive people too much. If you cooperate with you, it is just to go through the difficulties together and take what you need, but it is not to serve you as the master and listen to your orders......"
Xu You raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? Fang Zhong feels aggrieved? ”
Fang Zhou is the central official of the Crouching Tiger Division and Wang Fu's absolute confidant, so he did not avoid him in secret discussions with Xu You. After all, in the future, Wang Fu will not be able to act arbitrarily, and he needs the support and implementation of his subordinates, but he didn't expect him to dare to boldly contradict Xu You.
Fang Zhou said coldly: "Crouching Tiger Division is rampant in the world, it has never been controlled by outsiders, even if it wants to rebel, it is also for the imperial court, what ......is the matter with Ganlangjun" Before the words fell, he suddenly felt a pain in his abdomen, turned his head with difficulty, and looked at Wang Fu in disbelief.
Wang Fu withdrew his waist knife expressionlessly, wiped the blood with the corner of his clothes, raised his foot and kicked Fang Zhou's corpse to the ground, expressed his understanding of Xu You's proposal, and offered to replace the guards around him with people from the winter solstice, and then send most of the original Crouching Tiger Division to various places in Yangzhou in the name of inspection, in fact, they were scattered, and let them be responsible for one county and one place, so as not to nest in Wu County to cause trouble. If there is information, it must be reported in a single line, and all secrets are shared with the winter solstice, thus eliminating direct contact with Jinling, and completely becoming a vassal of Xu You in Wu County.
Xu You encouraged him twice, left the Crouching Tiger Division, and his evaluation of Wang Fu went to a new level. Able to bend and stretch, be decisive, and investigate more in the future, it can be of great use.
Returning to the Taishou Mansion, Xu You offered Gu Yun a plan for preparing for war, and said: "Feiqing, as soon as the imperial court appoints him, he must quickly expand his armament in the name of Yangzhou Assassin Shi." In many counties south of Qiantang, there are also many displaced people who have lost their land, and they can choose strong people to enlist in the army. However, don't use the name of the Fuzhou soldiers, you can use the tuntian as an excuse, practice archery when you live, teach the enemy when you go out, cultivate during the day, train at night, and get tens of thousands of armored soldiers in less than ten months, and you can raise grain and grass without counting...... Tuntian needs to set up a new Tuntian Governor, I ask Feiqing to recommend to the imperial court, appoint Zuo Yan as the Governor of Yangzhou Tuntian, eight miscellaneous positions, I don't think I will refute Feiqing's face......"
Gu Yun obeyed it, and Bao Xi persuaded in private: "The art of fixing the country, in strengthening the army and eating enough, the Qin people are eager to agriculture and the world, the Han Wu is to set the Western Regions with Tuntian, Xu You let Zuo Yan be the captain of Tuntian, he has seen the king's anger for the first time, and he must be guarded against!" ”
Gu Yun was willing to listen, and said angrily: "Mr. is worried, if it is not for the imminent national disaster, there is no official and no position, why bother to say that these things cause Mr. to be suspicious?" Even that Wang Fu knows that cooperation is beneficial to both sides, and he is in one heart, and he does not hesitate to cut off Zhou Yiming's heart, Mr. Fei thinks that I am not even as good as Wang Fu? ”
Bao Xi retreated!
After settling down the affairs of Wu County, Xu You took Qingming straight to Linchuan County. Linchuan County belongs to Jiangzhou, with eight counties of Linchuan, Nancheng, Xifeng, Yihuang, Anpu, Nanfeng, Yongcheng and Dingchuan, and the county is governed in Linchuan, and it is also the fief of Linchuan Wang Anxiulin.
After so many years, Xu You can finally meet Xu Shunhua openly, the first lady in Jiangzuo in the past, and today, I don't know what it looks like?
(For some reason, the king of Yidu was changed to the king of Linchuan, and I apologize)
