In the autumn of the twelfth year of Tianfu of the Han Dynasty, Li Tang sent an army of 80,000 people from Qianzhou (now Ganzhou, Jiangxi) to attack Xiongzhou (now Nanxiong, Guangdong), pass through Shaozhou (now Shaoguan City, Guangdong), and go straight to Xingwangfu (now Guangzhou). At the same time, Ma Yun, the king of Chu, officially issued a royal decree to personally command the Guards Army, as well as the second division of the Ma Fourth Army (defense envoy Zhang Wenbiao) and the third division (defense envoy Chen Xu) A total of 30,000 people went south, together with the main force of the Ma Second Army, to attack Guangnan West Road.

The news soon spread to the Xingwang Mansion, and Liu Sheng, the Great Sage Wenwu Daming Emperor to the Great Guangxiao Emperor, was anxious, and he was no longer in the mood to talk to Lu Meiren**, so he hurriedly convened the ministers to discuss things. Liu Sheng was in a hurry, and the group of guys below who had no eggs were even more anxious, and they were anxious, but these guys stared at each other with big eyes, and none of them spoke. This situation can be said to be the worst situation since the founding of the Liu family in Lingnan. The two great powers to the north of him attacked Lingnan at the same time. Li Tang claimed to have an army of 150,000, and Chu claimed to have 100,000 soldiers, and so many soldiers and horses were dispatched.

Liu Sheng saw that everyone was silent, and he couldn't help but ask by name: "Lin Aiqing, how do you think this matter should be handled?" ”

Lin Yanyu has been silently saying in his heart: Don't call me by name, don't call me by name. Unexpectedly, Liu Sheng's first point was him, which is also normal, does it make him the first celebrity in Liu Sheng's eyelids?

Lin Yanyu said boldly: "Your Majesty is worry-free, my great dragon spirit is in full swing." In the past, the state of Chu attacked many times, but all of them were defeated, and this year must be the same. What's more, our Han has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, how can it be easily humiliated? As long as His Majesty sends an edict to the border passes, urges the border guards, and takes strict precautions, the enemy will surely retreat soon. ”

Liu Sheng was slightly relieved and asked, "That... So what should I do with these urgent documents? ”

No matter how bold Lin Yanyu was, he didn't dare to persuade the emperor to ignore it, but just prevaricated and said, "Mo Ruo... Mo Ruo sent people to supervise in front of the army, so that the soldiers would not be distracted from fighting. ”

As soon as these words fell, the other eunuchs were shocked when they heard it, and sent someone to be the prison army, this Lin Yanyu will definitely not be sent out, and he will not be able to escape, the eunuch Chen Yanshou stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks, the minister thinks, this, the two countries are fighting against our dynasty at the same time, there must have been a conspiracy in advance, but this kind of thing, the interests are related, the two countries may not be able to be as close as brothers, the minister thinks... I thought, this... It is better to send a man of tongue to lobby the two countries, because they have mutual dislikes, so that we can easily repel them by maneuvering one or two in the middle. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Lord Chen said is very true, this Chu State is our feud, but Li Tang and we have always been well water and do not violate river water, and this time we must have been bewitched by the Chu State. Why don't we send envoys, envoy Li Tang, and persuade them, maybe we can persuade them, so that only the state of Chu is left, and we don't have to be afraid. Eunuch Guo Jianyue said.

Lin Yanyu blinked, what Chen Yanshou and Guo Jianyue meant, he understood, these two guys opposed their plans, they must be afraid of being sent out and being warned. A good man with three gangs, he rolled his eyes, and echoed casually: "Your Majesty, the minister suddenly thinks that this Lord Chen's idea is good, and the minister has another candidate, recommended to the king, that is, Zhong Yunzhang of the Ministry of Works, this person is extraordinary, bold and capable, but he is the best messenger." ”

This Zhong Yunzhang was an important minister of the imperial court during the period of Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (referring to Liu Sheng's father Liu Yan, not Liu Bang of the Western Han Dynasty, nor Liu Zhiyuan of the Later Han Dynasty) and the Ministry of Industry. When Liu Sheng killed his brother and seized power, and became the emperor, he was a killer and a tyrannical man, and Zhong Yunzhang didn't like it, so he persuaded him twice. Liu Sheng didn't react yet, but provoked Lin Yanyu (Liu Sheng's rampant expedition was tyrannical, and Lin Yanyu got a lot of benefits from it), entangled a group of eunuchs, and said bad things about Zhong Yunzhang in front of Liu Sheng all day long, Liu Sheng just demoted Zhong Yunzhang by five or six levels and became a small Langzhong. Lin Yanyu didn't have any good intentions when he recommended Zhong Yunzhang, Zhong Yunzhang said it, the credit is Lin Yanyu's, if it collapses, wouldn't Lin Yanyu easily ask for Zhong Yunzhang's life?

Liu Sheng thought about it, nodded, and ordered someone to send a decree to summon Zhong Yunzhang to meet him. Although Liu Sheng trusted the eunuchs, the eunuch brothers did not come out, and he could only summon the ministers. He also understands that this is a critical moment, and if he can't do it, he may be invited to Jinling or Changsha for tea. It's not appropriate for him to be a good emperor, and he doesn't want to do it when he goes to a place where he is not familiar with life.

Not long after, Zhong Yunzhang came to Daming Palace. After the establishment was completed, Liu Sheng told Chen Yanshou's idea and asked Zhong Yunzhang if he was willing to go. At this time, the twisted melon is not sweet, this Zhong Yunzhang doesn't want to go, he forces him to go, in case he sells himself after he goes, then it is better not to let him go.

After Zhong Yunzhang heard this, he asked instead: "Your Majesty, do you know where the Chu army's attack direction is?" ”

Liu Sheng said: "Of course, it was the Jianwu Festival, and Chen Shouzhong wrote a distress letter to me every day. ”

Zhong Yunzhang asked again: "Then what is Ning Yuan Jie Du doing with Pan Chongche?" ”

Lin Yanyu jumped out and said, "It is said that Pan Chongche reined in the troops under Ning Yuanjiedu's envoys and concentrated them in Yizhou and Fengzhou, maybe he was plotting against him." Otherwise, he is the closest to Yongzhou, why not save it, but instead gather his troops? He wanted to sue Pan Chongche just now, but this surnamed Pan is also a eunuch, and he is quite popular with Liu Sheng, and in the eunuch group, the popularity is not bad, so he can't find a good time, he will never bite hard.

Sure enough, Liu Sheng frowned, and said with some dissatisfaction: "This Pan Chongche, it seems that he is going to beat him." ”

Zhong Yunzhang said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what General Pan has done can be described as a wise move. Your Majesty, please think about it, the Jianwu Festival has made the territory remote, the population is sparse, and the property tax is even few, which is simply chicken ribs for us Han. Chicken ribs, tasteless food. Since the state of Chu wants it, it is better to give it to them. The minister thought that if he wanted to divide the Chu-Tang alliance and send an envoy to Li Tang, it was better to send an envoy to the Chu State, why? Whether it is Xiongzhou or Shaozhou, the terrain is steep, it is the northern gateway of our Han Dynasty, if Li Tang wants these places, we will never agree. However, the state of Chu is different, if we can use the Jianwu Jiedu embassy as bait, maybe it can be the Chu state to temporarily withdraw the army, and then we concentrate our forces, attack Li Tang in the north, defeat Li Tang first, and then advance westward with the victory to regain the Jianwu Jiedu embassy. It's not too late. ”

Liu Sheng blinked, a little moved by Zhong Yunzhang's words, he glanced at his eunuchs and ministers, and asked, "What do the Qing family think?" ”

Everyone looked at Lin Yanyu, and Lin Yanyu said: "The minister thinks that Lord Zhong's words can be tried." ”

Everyone hurriedly agreed, and Liu Sheng nodded.
