Under the spring sun, under the leadership of several attendants, Lou Gui walked briskly to the backyard of General Wei's mansion. But what's interesting is that this time he went all the way, but he didn't meet Gongsun Xun's eldest daughter Gongsun Li...... You must know that the backyard has always been a place for General Wei to play and educate with his children, so when I came here to meet in the past, I would most likely meet Gongsun Li and a few of her younger siblings bouncing out of this place.

So, it's weird.

However, Lou Gui soon reassured himself, because he bumped into General Wei's wife Zhao Yun head-on.

Lou Zibo hurriedly avoided the side of the road, and then bowed slightly, while Mrs. Zhao also smiled slightly, but did not say anything, and left directly.

"Uncle Zi came so fast." Gongsun Xun was sitting on a wooden bench by the pond, and he didn't look back when he heard the movement behind him.

"It's a bit fast, indeed." Lou Gui smiled behind the other party. "But my subordinates have some heartfelt words, and I want to talk to the prince and marquis in front of Ziheng and Zhicai......"

"That's interesting...... Sit down. Gongsun Xun turned around and motioned for the other party to take a seat.

Lou Gui didn't shirk, and sat directly beside Gongsun Xun, but then stopped talking.

"Don't you have something to say?" Gongsun Xun couldn't help but smile when he saw this. "And you have to be in front of Ziheng and them...... How not to speak again. ”

"I really don't know where to start for a while." Lou Gui sighed. "Speaking of which, I've been with the prince for more than ten years, right?"

Gongsun Xun was also stunned: "I thought Uncle Zi was going to tell me about the current situation......

"In the current situation, there is always someone to say, not less than me, but there are some things that I don't think anyone will necessarily say, so I want to talk to the prince." Lou Gui flicked his sleeves and sat upright. "Junhou, I have followed you for as long as I am second only to Ziheng, and I can be regarded as your confidant or minister of the humerus, right?"

"It's nature."

"Then dare to ask the prince, when did you regard me as a confidant?"

"What's going on with Uncle Zi today?" Gongsun Xun became more and more unable to laugh. "Why is this so strange question?"

"I thought about it, it should be after Dan Khan Mountain, right?" Lou Gui said to himself. "The prince has obviously trusted me a lot since then......"

"After all, it is the same life and death once, and it will naturally no longer be an ordinary relationship in the future." Gongsun Xun did not deny it.

"But the time when I made up my mind to follow the prince was a little later than the time when the prince regarded me as a confidant, specifically, the time when the prince was transferred to Shang Shulang, and we returned to Luoyang together." Lou Gui sat down with his hands tied and smiled slowly. "After all, I was kidnapped by the prince before, and I am still a little dissatisfied, and I have always been a high-eyed person...... But when he returned to the old place, he saw that those old people of Wanluo were still drunk and dreamed of death, and the superior was still in a vegetarian position, so he decided that the prince was a person who could achieve things, so he put out his superfluous thoughts and pinned his ambition on the prince wholeheartedly. And this time I went to Luoyang again, although the old people such as Meng De and other old people gradually became ambitious, but I was entangled with the name of the prince and the marquis, and it was difficult to give up. ”

Gongsun Xun also smiled softly, and at this time, an attendant flashed on the opposite side, obviously trying to repay something, but he raised his hand and waved it down.

"Uncle Zi." After a slight pause, Gongsun Xun became a little serious. "You say this to persuade me not to be resentful because of Mo Huyun, right? Do you want to say that everyone has their own ambitions, if you came back from Danhan Mountain, but before you went to Luoyang, you left me because of some things, it may not be impossible...... Is that what it means? If you really want to save Mo Huqi in the past, I am not unable to spare his life, but I must not turn a deaf ear and do nothing......"

"I'm not trying to persuade the prince today whether to kill a person, or whether to save a person." Lou Gui slowly twisted his beard and shook his head. "I just want to advise the prince...... This kind of thing may not have existed before Mo Huqi, and it is also indispensable after Mo Huqi, but in any case, the prince should treat everyone equally, not because of personal selfishness. ”

"For example?" Gongsun Xun asked with a relaxed smile on his face.

"For example, how lenient was the prince to Jia Wenhe and Cheng Zhongde before? Mengjin Ferry, how generous is Liu Xuande? And then ...... For example, Xu Bojin and Lu Fengxian were in Luoyang, and the clouds were treacherous; For example, Zhang Junyi was sincere in Jizhou Prefecture, such as Fu Gong and Tian Yuanhao who were repeatedly courteous to the prince for several years, but still sat in Wei County, if these people will either go with the flow in the future, or still abandon the people of the border county as the prince and marquis...... Will the prince be as angry as he is today? ”

"No, it won't." Gongsun Xun thought for a moment and replied calmly. "Not to mention that people have their own aspirations, just to say that the troubled times have come suddenly, these people are either involuntarily, or difficult to understand people's hearts, the situation is there, I think no matter how they choose, it is also excusable...... Not to mention them, it's just that I've been out and tossing for a long time, isn't it also because of the situation that I haven't gotten anything? I can only say that unless these people are my personal servants and then take the initiative to join others, I will definitely not regard people as rebellious. ”

"Gentlemanly generosity." Lou Gui sighed slightly. "But the prince, so far, Mo Hu and Mo Hu are at most just wait-and-see, and it is also when the prince has not arrived and the situation is not good......"

"What you said may not be unreasonable, and I also know that Chengde may not be able to turn around." Gongsun Xun pondered for a moment, and then thought of an obvious reason that was enough to convince everyone. "But...... For example, Jia Wenhe and Liu Xuande are all Han heroes, and the biggest problem of Mo Huqi is that he is of a different race, and he has been raised by me and my mother for more than ten years as a foreign race, but he once abandoned me...... How can I possibly bear it, you say? ”

"It doesn't matter." Lou Gui is colorful. "As soon as I came, I told the prince that I didn't come here today to intercede for someone. But I heard that there will be a great change in Luozhong, and since then, it may be the world of great controversy to return to the world, so I hope that the prince will start from the bottom of his heart and make plans as soon as possible, thinking that the posture of the master will come to the world...... It's not that you can't be angry, but you must have a dignified and upright banner; It's not that you can't show favoritism, but you have to cover it up; It's not that you can't take risks, but you have to have enough reasons and benefits...... In this way, you can win or lose at will and live up to your youthful ambition! ”

Gongsun Xun stood up, but he didn't make any drama of worshipping on the spot...... The two have been getting along for more than ten years, and from the perspective of 'comrades who plot rebellion', Lou Gui is afraid that he is more determined and longer than Lu Fan, how can he do that kind of thing?

"I have memorized Uncle Zi's words." Gongsun Xun is frank and relative. "And I understand what you mean, you want to say that your Lou Zibo's ambition has been tied to my Gongsun Xun very early, not only that, but the millions of people in the three counties of Guangyang have also hung their lives and deaths on me...... Things will be more complicated and difficult in the future, and if my father-in-law Sun Xun wants to be the master, he should adjust his mind as soon as possible, take responsibility, and make a clear distinction between public and private, so as to deal with the great changes in the world. ”

Lou Gui bowed his head slightly in reply.

After the two of them said this, the time had already come to noon, so they didn't say more, but walked together to the lobby of the front guard general's mansion, as for the subordinates of Gongsun Xun's cronies who had received the order and were summoned before, they were also waiting here early under the leadership of Lu Fan.

When everyone saw Lou Gui following behind their prince, they didn't think much about it, they just thought they were discussing military planning...... Besides, now that the situation has changed dramatically, how many people can take care of these details?

"Prince!"

After everyone saluted, Lu Fan, as the chief of General Wei, introduced the situation a little, and bluntly mentioned the body of the Son of Heaven, and immediately someone couldn't hold it back, and directly came out to ask for words...... It is Jingzhao Du Ji Du Bohou.

"Bohou said." Gongsun Xun still admires Du Ji very much.

After all, although this person is a little more utilitarian, his ability is too strong, and he can be said to be able to secure prison security, financial dredging, and appease the people. In the past two years, his people followed behind Lu Fan as an assistant and handled the affairs of the shogunate in an orderly manner.

Correspondingly, although Wang Xiu had received the assistance of Chang Lin, Han Hao, Zao Yi and others in Hanoi before, after arriving in Guangyang, it was because the Mintun affairs he was responsible for accounted for a large proportion of the shogunate, which made the so-called 'Tuntian faction' power soar...... But his people have never suppressed Lu Fan anymore, and it is partly due to Du Qi and these people.

"Prince." Back in front of him, Du Bohou was the first to speak, but it was simply and directly, without the slightest scruples. "General Luozhong has changed greatly, but the court has used the prince's father-in-law to go out of Liaodong, and the important ministers of the clan to go out of Youzhou...... Neither of the two can shake the overall situation of the monarch, but together, it is enough to mix the monarch! The court and the central government bound the prince in the north, and didn't want the prince to be Luozhong's thoughts, I'm afraid it was about to come out! I hope you need to plan ahead! ”

Gongsun Xun slowly bowed his head, he really thought of this level...... If Zhao Bao goes to Liaodong alone, he is not afraid, because no matter how prestigious he is outside the Saiwai, it is half of his own family after all, and he is purely the other party who takes care of his family in Liaodong; And a single Liu Yu, in fact, is not afraid, because his Gongsun Xun is not the eldest brother with no political foundation in his mother's story, and this person's political prestige is not a necessity for him, General Wei, and he just throws it there; But there are two at once, which is a bit troublesome, because his father-in-law is still a little stupid and loyal, and Liu Yu is a minister who is recognized as a minister of the clan, the two are superimposed, both famous and real, maybe he can really cause some trouble for himself.

"That being the case," Gongsun Xun asked simply after a moment's thought. "What do you think you should do?"

"There is only one word for subordinates." Du Yi replied proudly. "Please be quick! Whether it is to first stabilize the situation outside the country, and then to deal with the affairs of Los Angeles, or first to settle the affairs of Los Angeles and then slowly plan for the affairs of the outside world, we must be sure to ...... as soon as possible If you want to go to Luoyang, please don't wait for the Fu Festival to arrive, and don't wait for Youzhou Mu to take office, take advantage of the fact that they have not yet arrived, and ride directly south and go straight to Luoyang; And if you want to quell the chaos, you must immediately raise troops, first hold the soldiers and horses of several counties in your hands, and let Youzhou Mu not interfere in the affairs of our three counties after he takes office! ”

Gongsun Xun did not answer directly, but looked at Lu Fan and the others.

Sure enough, Lu Ziheng did not hesitate when he saw this, but immediately got up and seconded the proposal. Soon, a large number of civil servants who presided over affairs in the shogunate also became listed...... Obviously, these people have communicated before, or rather, although these people may not believe that the world is going to enter a world of great contention like Lou Gui, but the basic political sensitivity still makes them realize that the time has come for Gongsun Xun to soar!

Of course, when it comes to the true intentions of Lu Fan, Du Ji and others, I am afraid they still want to follow Gongsun Xun to Luoyang. After all, it is the source of power that is currently recognized by the people of the world. And the reason why Gongsun Xun decided to go to Luoyang or go out to quell the rebellion was to take into account the mood of the local grassroots officials, and also to take into account the attitudes of Cheng Pu and Han Dang, who did not speak but actually had considerable influence, and also to take into account the affairs of Liaodong......

In other words, they themselves knew that Gongsun Xun had to clean the house before going out, so they simply didn't mention it.

And after a while, as Gongsun Xun's eyes fell on Wang Xiu, Wang Shuzhi, who had been silent, finally got up and said: "The situation has changed, if the Son of Heaven is incapable of doing anything in the central office, then the general is respected, and the general has always been kind to the prince, so the prince does not need to be bound to a temporary system...... Whether you are fighting or walking, inside or outside, you can do it quickly. ”

Seeing that everyone in the shogunate agreed, Gongsun Xun nodded slowly, and then simply got up and ordered: "The country is in danger, and I am entrusted by the center to be the minister of the department, so I must share the worries of the world...... Pass on my order to immediately mobilize the soldiers and horses of the three counties of Guangyang and the two counties of Youbeiping and Liaoxi, and distribute them according to the military strategy discussed by Zibo before...... Except for 10,000 and Cheng Demou stationed in Yuyang and forced Chengde, the rest will follow me to Lulongsai to gather! ”

Everyone didn't dare to slack off, and they bowed down one after another.

Gongsun Xun paused and then continued: "Let the governors of the five counties listen to my moderation, and the five counties will go to Fanyang to greet the Son of Heaven for me, and the upcoming Youzhou Mu Liu Gong." ”

This is to openly let the Taishou of the five counties openly obey his own arrangement, and hand over all the soldiers and horses and governance power of the five counties, and everyone in the hall heard this, and they also bowed their heads more and more to agree.

"As for the two counties of Zhongshan and Changshan, where the Son of Heaven has allowed me to exercise extra moderation, in a hurry, I don't need to let them mobilize a large number of troops and horses, just do their best." Gongsun Xun finally said. "If there is really a lack of Ding Zhuang in the rear, you can naturally summon him in the name of the Shogunate of Wei. However, the two counties of Dai County and Shanggu County need to guard the border wall, defend Xianbei, and monitor the local Wuhuan tribe...... Not only does there be no need to mobilize, but it is also necessary to let Captain Gong Qihou return to the division immediately to guard the town...... Liaoxi affairs, my father-in-law Sun Xun will naturally do his best for Youzhou Township. ”

Naturally, everyone pressed their heads even lower.

In this way, in February of the sixth year of Hanzhongping, the spring ploughing was barely over, and with the suddenness of the situation in Luoyang, Gongsun Xun actually rushed before the arrival of the scepter and before Liu Yu took office, and directly ordered the mobilization of the five counties of Youzhou, ready to go out of the fortress in a big way.

On the 10th day of the first month of February, when Liu Yu and his fellow envoys of the Son of Heaven came to the Governor Kangting of Fanyang, the southernmost part of Youzhou, they were faced with the five Taishou crossing the border to greet each other. At this time, General Wei Gongsun Xun had already led his six hundred righteous servants to Lu Longsai, who he was very familiar with.

Outside Lu Longsai is the lost passage of Liaoxi and tens of thousands of rebels whose enemy situation is unknown, Lu Longsai is Gao Shun and his 3,000 soldiers and horses who were stationed here before, and Lu Longsai is 5,000 soldiers from Liaoxi and Youbeiping counties who arrived in the early stage...... At the same time, a large number of farmers from the five counties who have just finished spring ploughing, and even a larger range of children from good families and wealthy families are still gathering here in an endless stream.

Obviously, Gongsun Xun has made up his mind to let this 'doomed' rebellion end in some 'doomed way'!

There are some words, even if he is close to Lu Fan, he will not say it, and some thoughts, even after Lou Gui's rare sincere persuasion, he will not give up so easily...... In fact, it's not just that Xi Zhong is stubborn this time, this time Gongsun Xun went to Luozhong, did some charity, fought hard, but actually returned in vain, how could he not be a little annoyed and angry in his heart?

Even so, he naturally felt unhappy!

——————I am the dividing line of heaven——————

"At the end of the Middle Peace, Liaoxi Wuhuan rebelled, raised tens of thousands of troops to cut off Youzhou, and served the Yuyang Hao clan Zhang Ju as the Son of Heaven, the center thought it was worrying, it was to worship Taizu to hold the festival to supervise the counties of the Senei, the right general Zhao Bao held the festival to float to the Liaodong Governor of the outer counties, and to Zongzheng Liu Yu as the pastor of Youzhou, and the three worked together. Not long, Luozhong Tianzi was seriously ill, when Taizu was in Changping, he heard it, and did not wait for the state pastor, the right general, and the angel to arrive, that is, to send troops, and the counties did not dare to violate the two thousand stones. - "New Yanshu".
