Chapter 486: Liu Xin opposes war with the Xiongnu
At this time, all kinds of miracles and strange beasts broke the news from all over the Han Dynasty.
"Uncle, have you heard? Recently, all over our Han are auspicious! Someone found a dragon in a thousand-year-old well. Someone else found a unicorn in the field. There were even phoenixes in Yiling and other places. In the hall of the inn, Wu Han, the pavilion chief, said to Uncle Zhao.
"Pavilion Chief Wu. I've heard about it too. These things are really rare in a thousand years! I've also heard that springs have been flowing from dry wells that have been dry for decades in many places recently. The water of the Yellow River became crystal clear overnight. What a surprise! ”
Uncle Zhao thought to himself: Could it be that our Han is really going to appear a saint who is rare in a thousand years? Then our people really have to have a good life!
"Actually, Uncle Zhao. I always thought someone was playing tricks. These things came too suddenly. It even strikes me a little unbelievable. ”
Wu Han took a sip of wine and said with a smile.
He thought to himself: Since Zhai Yi's rebellion was put down by His Majesty the Emperor, there have been more and more auspicious people in the imperial court. I always felt that someone was deliberately trying to curry favor with His Majesty the Emperor, so they were deliberately pretending to be a ghost. Otherwise, how could this be?
"No, it won't. I think that our people are about to live a good life! How can there be a mistake in the meaning of God? You can't go wrong! ”
Uncle Zhao became cheering.
He began to dance and shouted, "The ancient Yao Tianshun Sun is finally going to be presented today!" Let's have a blast! ”
The people in the inn also convulsed to their heart's content.
Wu Han looked at their expressions and fell into deep thought:
Can Wang Mang really bring us peace and prosperity? In recent years, Wang Mang's new policy, especially Wang Tianling, has basically treated the symptoms but not the root cause. Although the people were given the land, they did not know how to manage it.
The people are basically developing the land at will, and if this continues, not only will the grain not increase the output, but will cause famine! However, the current civil and military officials are avoiding the important and trivializing the peace. If this continues, our big man will really fall into a crisis!
So, who planned so many auspicious rui?
Of course, it was Wang Mang's son Wang Lin.
Wang Lin was at the Wang family's mansion at this time talking to his uncle Wang Shun about the recent auspicious events.
"Uncle. I also sent someone to get a lot of auspiciousness. But why is my father still unwilling to be the real emperor? Is the position of the emperor so terrible? My father seems to be planning to die in the position of the emperor! ”
looked at Wang Lin's long sigh and lifeless appearance.
Wang Shun's eyes revealed a fierce light.
He smiled, "Nephew." You just want to be the crown prince so much! Now your father doesn't want to be emperor. He just doesn't take the initiative too much, which makes him appear to be a traitor who usurped the throne. We need to give him enough face. In this way, your father is willing to be the true emperor. ”
Wang Lin smiled: "Uncle is really experienced!" His father was born as a student. He cares about his reputation, so he will definitely not take the initiative to usurp the throne. We need to make it reasonable for him to take the throne. That's what he needs! ”
"Xiangrui still needs to continue to give. Until your father is willing to be the true emperor. Wang Shun said with a smile.
Wang Shun thought to himself: Since Wang Mang is hypocritical. We're going to give him enough face. Let him not be the emperor in the end, it seems that he can't stand the people of the world.
"Being an emperor is actually not so dangerous! Only when you are an emperor can you have three palaces and six courts, and only then can you have seventy-two concubines! There are ten thousand taels of gold. Wang Lin said with a smile.
"Nephew, do you want to think about Yuan Bi. He's the woman you love the most. But now, your father likes her, too. If your father ascends the throne tomorrow and becomes emperor. Well, I'm afraid you won't get her! ”
"Uncle. I like Yuan Bi though. But compared with the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains of the Han Dynasty, I can still tell which is more important! Wang Lin said seriously.
He thought to himself: Yuan Bi is indeed a good girl. It's a pity that I won't get her again in this life. In order to be able to become the crown prince, I can only endure it. In order to be the emperor, I can only give up Yuan Bi. You can't win 'em all.
Thinking of this, Liu Xin had an idea, and suddenly said to the crown prince Wang Lin: "His Royal Highness the prince, we can go to Wang Shun." He made great contributions to His Majesty's creation of a new dynasty. Now he is recuperating at home due to illness. He has always been at odds with Wang Xun, so we can let him give advice! ”
"Yes! Uncle Wang Shun can! Wang Lin said with a smile.
Wang Lin and Liu Xin went to find Wang Shun.
Wang Shun was already a candle in the wind at this time. He was already full of gray hair.
He looked at the fish in the garden of the mansion and thought to himself: Our new dynasty is not as good as one day at a time. When I helped His Majesty win the world of the Han Dynasty, was it right or wrong?
"Big brother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I have come to see you!" Liu Xin said with a smile.
"That's it!" Wang Shun said with a smile.
"Now that Wang Xun has become a great Situ, the new dynasty is in ruins. We hope you will help us! Liu Xin said with a smile.
"That's it! You don't have to go out of the mountain! The old man is already in his last years! You still don't have to! However, the old man can give you some guidance! Wang Shun said with a smile.
"That's fine!" Liu Xin said with a smile.
"Recently, Da Situ Wang Xun has always given His Majesty ideas to reform the economy. led to the bankruptcy of the people, and the current new dynasty has long been boiling with public resentment! Is there a way you can do it? The crown prince cried.
"The solution is actually simple. We can kill Wang Xun. Wang Shun said with a smile.
The crown prince was so frightened that he thought: Is it really possible? That's great!
"You can let Wang Xun go and fight the Huns. I heard, didn't he approve of His Majesty going to fight the Huns? In this case, let's get off the donkey down the slope and let him fight the Huns. In this way, he will surely die on the battlefield! Wang Shun said with a smile.
The crown prince Wang Lin thought to himself: Wang Shun is really resourceful! We're not as good as him!
Liu Xin thought to himself: Wang Shun is really His Majesty's first think tank! If he is still in the court, he must be the great Situ! When Wang Xun is eliminated by me, he can't stay! Otherwise, it will inevitably hinder me from getting the world!
Wang Shun thought to himself: The folk say: Liu Xiu should be the Son of Heaven. Everyone thinks that it is the national teacher Liu Xin. Looking at it today, it should be nonsense. Liu Xin has no resourcefulness. He's a straw bale!
"Your Majesty, we should stop the war with the Huns now!" Liu Xin played.
"Xian Danyu killed my Princess Jianning. How can peace be negotiated? Wang Mang scolded.
"Your Majesty, that's why we have to negotiate peace! The Huns were too strong. Even if we win, we will lose our troops! Da Sima Yanyou cried.
"Your Majesty, we should teach the Huns a lesson!" Da Situ Wang said with a smile.
"That's it! Your Majesty, then let Da Situ go and fight the Huns! Liu Xin said with a smile.
Wang Xun's face turned pale with fright, and he thought to himself: Oh no, I fell for the trick. This is Liu Xin's plan! What to do?
