Wang Mang talked to everyone about some agricultural matters, and after arranging the main tasks for the last year or two, he set his eyes on the prison cow that was following him.

"Prison cow, how long will it take for Yuezhi to give birth?"

"There are about a month or two left, and the exact time is uncertain."

The prisoner Niu was a little puzzled by Wang Mang's intention to suddenly ask this question, and asked, "Lord Wang, why are you asking this?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just something I want you to run for me." Wang Mang said: "We are here to return to the field, last time Ji Yun suffered a big loss but did not come to us to trouble, it can be seen that he must be busy stirring up the situation in Kyushu at the moment." However, Ji Yun has always been brave and unscrupulous, and it is difficult to achieve great things.

The last time I led my troops to Helan Mountain, I met you Huns, and I heard them say that you are plotting to defend your family's Yizhou. I just thought, after Yuezhi's birth, you can run a trip to Yizhou for me, let some of the chess pieces you arranged before operate, and help Ji Yun succeed. ”

"What? Help Ji Yun? When the prisoner heard this, he was immediately furious: "Wang Mang, what do you mean by this?" Let me help him succeed? This is a no-brainer. ”

Ji Yunling insulted Yue Zhi, and for this matter, the prisoner Niu gritted his teeth with hatred.

If it weren't for Yue Zhi wanting to give birth to the child this time, and then kill the child and give the head to Ji Yun to send over, otherwise Yue Zhi would have found a way to kill the child in the womb.

These days, although Yue Zhi and the prisoner Niu have become close, the two are affectionate and loving, but Yue Zhi has always been haunted by Huai Ji Yun's humiliation of herself, and often hides her face and cries alone in the middle of the night.

The prison cow was on fire in his heart, and he couldn't wait to kill Ji Yun as soon as possible and heal the wounds in Yuezhi's heart.

It's just that he can't help Ji Yun for a while, so he can only suppress this anger and plot slowly.

Now Wang Mang said that he would let the prison cow help Ji Yun, and the prison cow immediately became angry, and he was extremely angry.

"Lord Wang, Ji Yun and I have a common enmity. Between me and him, there is only one person who can live. You want me to help Ji Yun now, isn't this difficult for a strong man? ”

"No, no, don't worry, I don't mean that." Wang Mang shook his head and said, "Ji Yun was ordered by the head of the Ji family to disturb the situation in the world. And I, too, want to disturb the situation in the world and wipe out those big families. For this point, Ji Yun and I have the same goal at present.

Recently, although we have stationed troops in Gansu, we have not paid attention to the affairs of the outside world. But you and I both know that during this period of time, there have been constant disputes in Kyushu, and there have been uprisings everywhere. Even I, Liaoning, are within the range of their fierce attacks. We almost all know that this is Ji Yun's handiwork. He used the Ji family's heritage.

However, the Wei family, the Huo family and other families are all old families, and they are not so easy to deal with. If I don't interfere, with the ability of this kid Ji Yun, I'm afraid that I won't be able to handle this matter in five or six years.

I want you to use the chess pieces that were arranged before, with the strength of the Ji family, to vigorously annex the Yizhou controlled by the Wei family first. Then, according to the actual situation, continue to plot against other states, drive those big families to a dead end, and let them come to me when they are desperate.

When the time comes, I will be able to take refuge in them, and I will be able to firmly control them and gain momentum. Then, with the help of the time and this general trend, I won the hearts of the people in one fell swoop, proclaimed the emperor of heaven, and implemented my reform plan.

My plan is to use my strength, although you have temporarily helped Ji Yun, but in fact you are helping me. It's hard for my soldiers to get involved right now. But you are different, you can get involved and capture more important generals of the Wei family, so that they are leaderless. I think that as long as you make a move, you will definitely be able to hasten their rout.

If I want to ascend the throne and become emperor, the time, place, and people must be the same, otherwise the name is not right, how can I carry out my plan? Although Wei Gonghan and Huo Changhai are not very good, they are famous. As long as they all draw near to me and recognize me as Lord, how can I be successful? ”

"So that's what you're going to do?"

When the prisoner heard Wang Mang's explanation, he felt a lot better.

"Lord Wang, if you want to ascend the throne and become the emperor, implement reforms, and shape your arrogance, this really can't be sloppy, you need the right time, place and people, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public. Only when all the ministers return to their hearts and jointly nominate you to change the dynasty can this matter be regarded as a real success. If you act rashly, it will not be conducive to the conversion of the people, and you will bring disaster. ”

"Yes, I can't be a little sloppy about this, if the people don't return to their hearts, even if I ascend the throne and become emperor, it's useless. Of course, in order to convert the people, it is useless to rely on those ministers alone, and it will take a few days. I can get my hands on it this day. Now I'm stockpiling food in a big way, also to meet that day.

In my prediction, this time will come in about this year or two. And Ji Yun definitely can't suppress those big families in such a short period of time, only if you wait for the opportunity to make a move. ”

"Let me discuss this matter with Zhi'er." Cow Prison Road.

"Okay, when you have discussed it and plan to help me, then you will immediately go to Yizhou to plot. Remember, you are not allowed to wield a butcher's knife at the people, just deal with the generals. If you don't plan to help me, that's fine, and I'll ask others to help me as well. ”

The prisoner nodded, didn't say much, and left first, looking for Yuezhi to discuss this matter.

After Wang Mang finished saying this, he said to another general: "Zhang Feng, have you contacted everything about the imperial capital?" ”

"It's all connected, according to the information from Lord Gongsun Ce, Liu Xun's ascension to the throne and title of emperor is going very smoothly, and all plans are going smoothly towards our predetermined goals."

"Good!" Wang Mang was beaming with joy, "Everyone, the rice here is growing well, there is nothing wrong with it, let's go to other places to have a look." lest there be loopholes. ”

"Yes, sir!" Everyone nodded and ran towards the other cities.

And so the day passed slowly.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Wang Mang returned to the main city of Weiwuguan.

He had eaten his supper in a hurry, and was about to go to bed to rest, when suddenly the guards who were holding their hands outside hurriedly walked in.

Wang Mang was surprised, "Li Yuan, is there something wrong?" ”

The guard Li Yuan said: "Lord Qiqi, there are three people visiting, two women and one man, saying that they want to see you, my lord." ”

"Who? Who's coming? What are their names. ”

"They didn't say anything, they just asked me to tell the adults, saying that as long as you see them, you will know who it is."

"And this?"

Wang Mang yawned and was exhausted, and he really didn't want to meet others at this time, so he said to the guards: "You go and tell them that it is late today, and it is not suitable to see each other, and I will go to see them again tomorrow." You are so entertaining, don't neglect the guests. ”

"Yes!" The guard took the order and withdrew.

However, as soon as the guard walked out of the door, there was a sneer outside the door, "You bastard, I haven't seen you for a few months, your shelf is a lot bigger, why is it getting late, it's not appropriate to see each other?" Hmph, I can't imagine that we have come all the way to see you, and now we can't even see your face. ”
