Zhao Huan told the world that Liu Song had privately built a military talisman to plan a rebellion, not to mention that the people didn't understand, even Chun Yujia couldn't help but be surprised when he heard the news, he smiled and said to his eldest son Chun Yuyan: "He's ruined." ”

"If Liu Song is killed, won't he be even more unusable?" Chun Yuyan frowned, a little puzzled by Zhao Huan's move.

"As soon as Liu Song dies, we will have no reason to support the army and not return, this is a delaying strategy." He looked at the map on the desk and said in a deep tone.

"Does Father have a solution?"

Chun Yujia let out a long sigh, "In that case, we can only plan it." He looked up at his son and said with a solemn face, "You personally lead the troops, be sure to capture Liu Song alive before the Ouyang Festival, take him to Beihai, and say to the outside world that his troops will retreat from Beihai and wait for an opportunity to make a comeback." ”

"The last general understands!" Chun Yuyan received the order, turned around and walked out of the camp.

"As for Ouyang Jie's side," he said to Changshi He Lan beside him, "you send troops disguised as Liu Song's army to stop them, and you will not withdraw until Chun Yuyan captures Liu Song." ”

He Lan received the order and immediately notified him, leaving Chun Yujia alone in the tent. He looked at the marching map on the case, and couldn't help laughing, it was understandable that Zhao Huan was eager to win over Ouyang's heart, but how could he send Ouyang Jie, a scholar, to command the battle, isn't this a sheep into the tiger's mouth? He shook his head and sighed that Zhao Huan was too suspicious, nepotism, where was the material to be an emperor?

……

It was night, everything was silent, only the cold wind of early winter blew the flag of the general, the soldiers on duty at night looked at the surrounding situation like a torch, the soldiers in the other camps had already slept peacefully, and some of the camps even snored everywhere. But there was still a dim light in the boss's tent. The light of the candle that was clearly extinguished shone on Liu Song's weather-beaten face, outlining his cold and hard outline a little softly. He looked at the map carefully, thinking about where it would be most advantageous to attack Chunyu Jiacai.

"When His Majesty's reinforcements arrive, Chun Yujia will inevitably be forced to retreat to Nanhuai, and Nanhuai will be his grave at that time." He looked at the map and said to Changshi Chen Ce with a smile.

"Chun Yujia, this person is beyond ordinary people in terms of strategy and courage, and he can't be given the opportunity to flee to Nanhuai, but the villain suggests going around to the rear and attacking from both sides with reinforcements." Chen Ce suggested.

He nodded, and was about to call for someone, when he heard a shout from the guards outside the tent.

"What?"

"Report to the general, there are people outside the camp asking to see you."

"Who?"

"It is said that he came from the capital, and there is important news to inform the general."

"Come in, please."

After a while, I saw a man in a blue robe come in with a curtain open, followed by two attendants, and bowed and saluted when he saw him: "Xiaguan He Kuan, I have seen the general." ”

Liu Song is not in Beijing all the year round, not to mention He Kuan, a newcomer, even if he has been an official for seven or eight years, he may not know him. So seeing that he looked polite and polite, he thought that he was probably here to convey the emperor's will, so he hurriedly got up and returned the salute and invited someone to sit down.

He Kuan quickly glanced around, and said in a deep voice: "There's no need to sit, the lower officials are here to deliver the decree, and Liu Song listens to the decree." ”

Hearing this, Liu Song hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to listen to the order, only to see He Kuan looking at the people on the ground expressionlessly, and said in a calm tone: "Emperor Qianyi's oral edict, Zhenbei General Liu Song, privately made soldiers and wanted to do something rebellious, this is not tolerated, but the Liu family has contributed to the court and left his whole body." ”

Liu Song couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly stood up and glared at He Kuan, "Impossible!" Who are you to dare to falsely declare your will? Someone ...... coming."

Before he finished speaking, the knives of He Kuan's two guards were already on his neck, and the guards outside the camp also entered the camp tent when they heard the summons, and the small camp tent was crowded with people for a while.

He Kuan's guards coerced people, and Liu Song's people did not dare to act rashly, at this time, He Kuan took the token symbolizing the emperor to Liu Song, and said in a deep voice: "This is a token, I guess the military knows it, right?" ”

"What else can't be done by those who dare to forge a message? Say, "Who sent you?" Liu Song said angrily.

He Kuan sighed, "General, if the subordinate is a member of the Chun Yujia faction, you must have already fallen to the ground." ”

"Forcing good people to become prostitutes, it's not that the people of the Chun Yu clan haven't done it, let alone forcing people to rebel?" Liu Song sneered, "Even if you kill me today, you won't go out of this door." ”

He Kuan looked at the tense soldiers, sighed deeply, and said to him: "General, it's better to be like this, I let my people retreat, and you also let your people retreat, leaving only the official and you in the camp, what do you think?" ”

"What tricks do you want to play?" Liu Song said vigilantly.

He Kuan didn't explain, put the holy decree aside, stretched out his hand and untied his robe and threw it aside, and said with a smile, "You can let your subordinates search the body below, if there is a hidden blade, the subordinate officer will dispose of it with you." ”

Liu Song looked at him and motioned for Chen Ce to search his body, but he really didn't find anything superfluous, and then Liu Song relaxed his vigilance. He Kuan immediately asked his men to retreat, and Liu Song immediately asked people to retreat.

After everyone left, Liu Songcai looked at him coldly and asked, "Who are you?" ”

"Under the surname He Mingkuan, a person from Nanyang, he took the position of the right supervisor of the court lieutenant in Beijing, and was sent here by His Majesty a few days ago to pass on the decree."

Liu Song still didn't believe him, and said coldly: "The false transmission of the holy decree is to connect the nine clans." ”

He Kuan didn't want to waste his tongue arguing with him about this, so he got straight to the point: "The lower official only asks the general one sentence, are you sure that you can defeat Chun Yujia." He looked at him with a serious expression.

"I dare to make a military order......"

"Military orders?" He Kuan intercepted the words coldly, and said in a contemptuous tone, "A piece of paper can't carry the safety of the Yong Dynasty. ”

"You-" Liu Songden was so blocked that he couldn't speak, because he knew that he was not Chun Yujia's opponent, and even looking at the entire Yong Dynasty, no one dared to compete with him.

He Kuan looked at him and said calmly: "Spread Your Majesty's will, and Liu Song will listen to it." ”

Liu Song looked at him unmoved, He Kuan was not annoyed, took out the holy decree from his sleeve, and said in a calm tone: "Passing on the holy decree of Emperor Qianyi, Liu Song will temporarily resign from his position in the army, and He Kuan will escort him back to Beijing, and the army will be taken over by Du Ke." Chin this. ”

"Ridiculous!" Liu Song was furious, and swept the pen and ink on the table under the table, "My Liu clan is the liver and brain of the Yong Dynasty, and there are more than ten people who died on the battlefield alone, and now I am not at fault, why should I bear such an infamy?" To the clan to be disgraced and reviled by all eternity! ”

He Kuan understood his feelings, so he didn't respond to his questioning, placed the holy decree beside him, and waited for his anger to subside before he said in a deep voice: "The Liu family is full of loyalty, this is known to the world, but this is also your opportunity to be loyal to Your Majesty. ”

Liu Song sneered, "Loyalty? Throughout the ages, which courtier has been loyal by self-destructive? It's clear that he framed me with Chun Yujia, and he still said that he was loyal? I thought it was the emperor's strategy to deceive the new emperor before, but now I understand that Your Majesty is for the sake of the country! ”

"General!" He Kuan said coldly, "This is a mistake. ”

Liu Song turned his eyes to look at him, his face was full of sarcasm, "This Lord He, I hope this kind of thing will not happen to you in the future, if it is unfortunate to happen to you, I hope you can still sacrifice your life for righteousness, oh, no, this is not only not righteous, but also infamous through the ages." What's the name of a word? You seem to be a reader, help me think about it. ”

"Kill if you lead the neck." He Kuan said lightly.

"Yes, that's the word, it's the neck, I hope you can do it too."

He Kuan sighed secretly, raised his eyes and looked at him calmly, "General, you still haven't understood what Your Majesty meant......"

"How am I going to understand? Understand why he is so cowardly? Couldn't the whole country destroy a Chun Yujia? His move will only make Chun Yujia gain an inch, and the heart of a loyal minister and a celebrity! Liu Song said angrily.

"Then who believed that Liu Bang would win the world?" He Kuan asked calmly.

"Chun Yujia has this ability?" Liu Song sneered.

"Of course he didn't," He Kuan paused before saying slowly, "He's Han Xin." ”

Liu Song frowned and looked at him, as if he understood something, but he couldn't accept it for a while, "What do you mean?" ”

"This is not the meaning of the lower official, it is the meaning of His Majesty, do you understand now, general?"

Liu Song was silent for a long time, looking at the holy decree that was placed aside by He Kuan, which was covered with the seal of Yong Korean red, "Has the outside world spread the news of my rebellion?" He asked in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty said that you have wronged the general, and you will definitely be wronged in the future!"

He closed his eyes and let out a long sigh, "This is the death of the king." ”

"It's just death in the eyes of the world, and the general doesn't have to worry about it."

"In your eyes, I'm a greedy person who is afraid of death?"

"Xia Guan didn't mean that." He thought for a moment before continuing, "Your Majesty has sent someone to protect your family, and after you return to Beijing, you will reunite with your family first, wait patiently, and I will definitely give you an explanation in the future." ”

Liu Song was unmoved, and looked at him coldly, "Wait until Chun Yu Jiafeng King pays homage to the prime minister?" ”

Hearing this, He Kuan was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and smiled: "You can also say the same." ”

Liu Song looked at him firmly, and then he understood, no matter where he said it, Chun Yu's family was a meritorious minister, and he was not far from being crowned a king.

He hooked the corners of his mouth and sneered: "Your Majesty, isn't you afraid of playing with fire and setting yourself on fire?" ”

"There are other people who play with fire and set themselves on fire, and the general is too worried."

He picked up the holy decree, read it carefully, and read it word by word: "Liu Song will temporarily resign from his position in the army, and will be escorted back to Beijing by He Kuan, and the army will be taken over by Du Ke." Chin this. After speaking, he couldn't help laughing, there were thousands of unwillingness in his heart, but he couldn't resort to his mouth, it was really a king who wanted to die! He rolled up the holy decree and put it in his sleeve, sat on the chair and sighed long, "If the Yong Dynasty is buried for my family, it is not wronged, and the decree of the minister is." ”

"The general's loyalty to His Majesty can be seen by the sun and the moon, and the hero will not shed blood and tears in the future!" He Kuan bowed as a sign of respect.

Liu Song looked at him, there was only indifference and indifference in his eyes, he was now a "dead man" who plotted rebellion, where was there any loyalty to show him?
