Chapter Eighty-Three: The Emperor's Mind
If Long Jun had a trace of contempt for Liu Hong before, thinking that this emperor would only play balance, but he had no relative mind, then now he was cold in his heart, and the emperor still dared to leave the camp after passing the will? Isn't this the toilet lighting a lantern to find death? And this incident broke out, no matter who did it, the current commander of the Yulin Army will definitely be responsible, and the only thing waiting for him is to cut off his head! And the little eunuch who passed the decree, how can he still have that kind of sincere and frightened attitude now, and his expression is calm and a little scary!
Especially Liu Hong's words, it made Long Jun feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar, and he was chilled, and he didn't know what to say to explain! On the contrary, Liu Hongpi continued without smiling, "Long Jun, do you know how you exposed it? ”
Clenched his fists, Long Jun didn't know what he should do now, what to explain, Liu Hong's words were obviously found something, if it could be installed before, then if it can be pretended now, his little life may be gone, he took a deep breath, Long Jun raised his head and looked directly at Liu Hong, and said with a straight face, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know!" ”
Glancing at Long Jun, Liu Hong pursed his lips and dismissed the others around him, leaving only a strong eunuch standing behind him, and said slowly, "You are too anxious to behave!" ”
Hearing this, Long Jun was stunned at first, and then sighed lightly, it was indeed that he was too anxious, anxious to break off the relationship with He Jin's party, and let Emperor Ling believe that he did not belong to the party of the scholar clan, but who let him serve successively under the account of Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song!
In fact, rescuing Lu Zhi is just a smoke bomb released by Long Jun, if there is anyone in this world who doesn't want Lu Zhi to be okay the most, it is He Jin and Yuan Kui, the two people who are in his party, Lu Zhi is out of prison, and their reputation in the Shi clan will drop a lot, how can they really hope that Lu Zhi is okay? As for the design, Cao Cao is the next generation of the party that cut off the scholars, how could the old fox in the officialdom not find out? In this way, the party of the Shi clan has nothing to do with themselves! In the future, as long as you maintain a gentleman's friendship with the Shi clan, I believe Liu Hong will not care!
As for mentioning Liu Bei, in addition to making Liu Bei's promotion in the Spirit Emperor generation hopeless, he didn't want him to accumulate fame, so by the way, he let Liu Yu and other royal factions discover him, and then collect Liu Bei. In the same way, Zuo Feng is also a smoke bomb, which is used to increase the power of eunuchs!
It can be said that the design of a series of links is to deepen the internal fighting of the great forces in the court, this is a yang conspiracy, even if Yuan Kui and others find out, they will definitely not refuse, Liu Hong is well versed in the art of balance, and Long Jun is backed by the Spirit Emperor to make a profit from it!
But now that these have all been discovered by the Spirit Emperor, I have to say that Long Jun looked down on the Spirit Emperor, with a wry smile on his face, Long Jun knelt on one knee with both hands in fists, and sighed, "Your Majesty, the minister knows his mistake!" ”
Snorted coldly, Liu Hong didn't let Long Jun get up, but instead stood there and looked ahead and continued, "Do you know why I asked Zhang to let Zhao Zhong and the others leave?" ”
"Because Your Majesty knows that Zhang Rang Zhao Zhong and his ministers are just a transactional relationship! But if they learn that the minister had designed them, the Ten Standing Servants and the others will make enemies with the minister! ”
"Zhang Rang Zhao Zhong and they are close ministers by my side, if this matter is known to them, after you are in charge of the Yulin Army, how much role do you think you can play?"
Hearing that Emperor Ling also put himself in charge of the Yulin Army, Long Jun felt a little relieved, it seemed that not only would he not die, but he would not lose his official position! So Long Jun smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, it's not that Weichen wants to design them, but if you don't promote Zuo Feng, they won't let Lord Lu come out!" I believe that the general and their party have managed to save each other more than once, right? ”
Nodding, Liu Hong also sighed, "That's right, although Lu Zhi is pedantic, he has a good reputation in the opposition, and he still has some prestige in He Jin's party!" ”
Seeing that Emperor Ling's tone was softened, Long Jun smiled bitterly and said, "So the minister can only make this decision to help His Majesty deepen the grievances between the two sides!" ”
Seeing Long Jun speak frankly, Liu Hong glanced at Long Jun deeply, and then said in a flat tone, "Is it really all to help the widow?" ”
Knowing that ordinary words can't be perfunctory to Liu Hong at all, Long Jun can only tell the truth and explain, "Your Majesty doesn't know, the general's party has tried the identity of the minister several times since he was in Jizhou, and collected a lot of things that the minister has done, even when he was in Luoyang, he was set up by the people in the general's mansion, if it wasn't for the wit of the general, maybe now the wechen would have served them!" In order to avoid being coerced by them in the future, the minister can only strengthen himself! ”
What Long Jun said made Liu Hong's brows furrow, and he asked, "What did you do?" Let them be so suspicious! ”
With a long breath, Long Jun explained helplessly, "In order to make a living, Weichen once partnered with a traveling son surnamed Jiang to hold an auction to collect money!" Then he participated in the new wine trading that appeared in the market now, and earned a lot of money, which is why the minister can donate so much for His Majesty! ”
After hearing this, Liu Hong looked at the eunuch next to him with an inquiring expression, only to see that the strong eunuch nodded lightly to signal that Long Jun said nothing wrong, and then Liu Hong frowned and continued to ask, "These things alone won't be able to hold you hostage, right?" ”
I saw Long Jun with a sullen face and a wry smile again: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten my surname, and the Long Family Army that was formed?" ”
Only then did Liu Hong understand that the problem with the surname Long and the means of collecting money were not much of a problem, but if they were put together, it would be a big deal. After suddenly realizing it, Liu Hong nodded lightly, and his expression when he looked at Long Jun eased a lot, and he said, "Get up!" ”
Long Jun, who had been kneeling for a long time, hurriedly thanked him and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
"This matter is over, then you tell me what is going on with you and Liu Bei!"
So Long Jun explained to Liu Hong the process and reasons for his friendship with Liu Bei, and even Liu Bei's defection to Zuo Feng was explained in detail. Liu Hong was very dissatisfied with it!
Seeing that it was approaching noon, Liu Hong said to Long Jun, "Come with me, I have something to explain to you!" After a pause, he said to the sturdy eunuch, "Jian Shuo, you go and prepare some food and send it over!" ”
The two hurriedly saluted and responded, "Oh! ”
It turned out that this sturdy eunuch was Jian Shuo, glancing at the departing Jian Shuo, Long Jun secretly thought that this little yellow gate really lived up to its reputation, and won the trust of Emperor Ling, Liu Hong's conversation with himself did not shy away from him at all, no wonder the later Eighth Captain of the West Garden was dominated by him!
Following Liu Hong into the big tent, Liu Hong took the lead in walking to the main seat and sat cross-legged, and then signaled to Long Jun to sit there too, and after Long Jun knelt and sat down, Liu Hong said, "Presumably Zhang Rang has already told you why the Yulin Army has expanded from two thousand to nine thousand now, right?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, Zhang Changshou has already told Weichen!"
"That's good Long Jun, the widow won't go around in circles with you, I'll let you train these nine thousand men and horses for me to be an elite division, even if it can't reach the level of the original Emperor Wu, it can't be worse than the army of Beiya!"
Recalling the history of his previous life, Liu Hong has always wanted to divide power with He Jin and others' Beifu Army, but every time it ended in failure, until the last time he set up the eighth lieutenant of Xiyuan, in fact, it was also a deal between Liu Hong and He Jin and others, that is, to make Liu Wei the prince!
So Long Jun hurriedly got up, hugged his fists and responded, "Your Majesty entrusts you, and the minister must do his best!" ”
With a chuckle, Liu Hong said with a smile, "Since you can train such a strong rebel army, then this group of officers and soldiers will definitely not disappoint the widow!" But this time, after the widow helps you eradicate the outliers in the Yulin Army, the rest is up to you! ”
Liu Hong's words made Long Jun a little puzzled, eradicate the alien? Whose outliers? With curiosity, Long Jun wondered, "What does Your Majesty mean?" ”
"The left rider and the right rider!"
"They're the General's people?"
"The left rider is He Jin's person, and the right rider is Zhang Rang's person!"
I was slightly amazed in my heart, I didn't expect the relationship between the Yulin army to be so chaotic, no wonder the ten permanent servants in the previous life were able to close the palace city and kill He Jin who entered the palace alone, it turned out that there were also their people in the Yulin army, understanding that this was Liu Hong's balancing strategy, Long Jun nodded slowly, signaling that he understood!
"After these two official positions, as well as the chief bookkeeper, you can promote people yourself, I don't want to ask about this! But don't let anyone else get involved, you know? ”
"Whoa!"
After talking about the matter of Yu Linjun, Jian Shuo's food was also sent in, Liu Hong didn't say more, pulled Long Jun and started to eat lunch, during the meal, Long Jun looked at Jian Shuo, wanting to see what was so strange about this eunuch, why Liu Hong trusted him so much, but until the end of the meal, this Jian Shuo always kept silent and stood beside Liu Hong in a proper manner!
wiped his mouth and motioned to Jian Shuo to clean up the food, Liu Hong said slowly, "After reading it so many times, what can you see?" ”
With a grin, Long Jun said, "Your Majesty is wise, the minister looks at Jian Changshi as if his martial arts are good!" So I looked at it more urgently! ”
"Oh?" sighed, Liu Hong smiled and said, "Folklore, you are the junior brother of the spear prodigy Yuan, and you really live up to your reputation, Jian Shuo is indeed good at martial arts, and you can fight with the widowed swordsman Wang Yue!" ”
Can it be compared with Wang Yue? After taking a deep look at a piece of Jianshuo, Long Jun was amazed in his heart, no wonder Liu Hong dared to take this person to have a showdown with him, so it was!
"Jian Chang Shi is really hidden! The minister is clumsy! ”
With a smile, Liu Hong said with a straight face, "Okay, don't mention this, in addition to letting you train the Yulin Army, there is one more thing you need to do!" ”
"Your Majesty, please speak!"
Glancing at Long Jun meaningfully, Liu Hong said slowly, "You don't seem surprised, the widow still has something to explain to you!" ”
Shyly smiled, Long Jun said, "Your Majesty said before that you have something to explain, but you only said that you should let Wechen train soldiers and horses, which is within Wechen's business, so Wechen believes that Your Majesty must have other things to explain!" ”
Showing an appreciative gaze, Liu Hong's face became solemn, and he said softly, "The widow wants you to use these nine thousand men and horses as a benchmark to find a way to split the Northern Army for the widow!" Then promote a new team, and the widow wants to take back the military power of his relatives! ”
Sure enough, this is the case, it seems that the eighth lieutenant of the West Garden can't escape, and the emperor's mental trick is nothing more than this!
It's just that in the previous life, it was a deal between Liu Hong and He Jin, but now he wants to promote it himself, feeling the weight of the task, Long Jun got up and hugged his fists and replied with a straight face, "Oh! ”
