Chapter 2: The Comeback

Sima Rui's qualifications are only benevolent, he originally did not have the ability to control the entire Jiangdong, and he relied on the assistance of the "Hundred and Six Peng" headed by Wang Dao to barely hang the arch. But now that overseas Chinese are returning to the north one after another, Jiangdong talents are withering, and even Director Wang is standing aside for the time being, and many affairs need to be done by Sima Rui himself, and he is really busy like a dog......

However, as a human monarch, I am depressed but inconvenient to confide in others, it is rare to see Pei today, as an elder and a woman, I have never been involved in politics, maybe I can pour bitter water on her, so as to slightly eliminate the blockade in my chest.

Sima Rui therefore said: "Diao Xie, Liu Kui and others persuade me to take care of the complicated affairs personally, and not to pretend to be in authority over others, but my uncle knows that my nephew does not have half of the Hongzhi Juncai of the ancestor Wuwang (Sima Ling), how can Yang, Jiang, Hunan, Jing, and even the affairs of nearly 100 counties in Jiao and Guangzhou?" Even if you do your best, the people's livelihood in Jiangdong has not improved, and the bandits are rampant day and night, and they almost want to play the imperial court, please return to the feudal domain to study and rest this heavy responsibility......"

Of course, this last sentence is a lie, although Sima Rui's ambition is not big, and although his desire for power is not strong, since he is in a high position, he will naturally cultivate some of them. Today, if he wants to retire to the position of ordinary vassal king, he categorically refuses to accept it.

Pei Shi frowned slightly, and asked Sima Rui: "As a monarch, he should be a pro-worker, and the court worships the king as Dazai, so that the affairs of the south of the Yangtze River have great hopes, and the king must not be greedy for comfort and resign." However, Diao Xuanliang, Liu Dalian, etc., can't they share the work for the king? ”

Sima Rui sighed softly: "I thought they were the best people in the world, but now I know that they are only the power of one state and one county, how can they share the politics of six states for Lone?" The authority cannot be shifted downward, but in the past, the Duke of Qi Huan was the full-time administrator, and he was free to enjoy himself and be able to govern the country......"

Pei Shi smiled: "Isn't there also a Guan Yiwu in Jiangzuo?" ”

Sima Rui frowned and hung his head silently.

Pei Shi also restrained his smile and asked again: "Could it be that Diao, Liu and Wang Maohong are so incompatible?" ”

Sima Rui shook his head lightly: "They are all loyal ministers, but they have different political opinions. According to Diao and Liu, Wang Maohong lived in the center of Jiankang, and Wang Chuzhong supported strong troops on the river, and they were one door to another, and they were each other's inside and outside, which was really a sign of chaos in the country -- this statement was not unreasonable. It's just that when Maohong is in charge, why should I be so worried! ”

Pei Shi Zhengse said: "The king, for state affairs, the concubine should not put a beak, since the king mentioned it today, he has a few words, and he is not unhappy." Out of the mouth of the concubine and into the ears of the king, it is just a common thing to gossip among relatives, and talk about relieving the boredom in the chest for the king - don't take the concubine's words as a policy. ”

Sima Rui hurriedly surrendered his hand: "Uncle and mother are taught, and Rui naturally listens." I didn't dare to use my aunt for state affairs, so I just asked the elders to teach some experience. ”

Pei Shi nodded, and said: "The king Nandu, the town of Jiankang, are all the merits of Wang Maohong, where were Diao and Liu in the beginning?" Wang Maohong can appease overseas Chinese insiders and control Nanban outside, how can his means be comparable to Diao and Liu? Only Langya Wang's family sat big, Diao and Liu, in the spirit of respecting the king, reprimanded Yu Liang of the chaotic government, Maohong was afraid of ridicule, and began to avoid the throne. However, Diao and Liu Zhicai could not compare with Wang Maohong, so the king was worried......

"If you are worried about the inside and the outside, and collude with the same clan, you can slowly cut off the military power of Wang Chuzhong, which is the fundamental plan. If Wang Maohong is alienated because of this, it will make Chu Zhong angry, and Yu Jiankang will be greatly disadvantaged. As a monarch, I am afraid that the virtuous will not be exhausted, how can I vacant the management of Jiangzuo and not use it?

"Only by using Diao, Liu, Wang Maohong, Zhou Boren, etc., and listening to the words of the audience, can we suppress the Nanban and make Jiangzuo safe. If the Wang family is afraid of becoming big, it is possible to recommend more of his children to enter the Chinese Dynasty, and if the Wang family returns to the Central Plains, then Diao and Liu are worried that Jiang Zuo is controlled by them, and the matter of being outside the court will inevitably not happen. ”

When Sima Rui heard this, his brows were slightly relieved, and he immediately gave his hand to Pei's family: "Uncle's kind words make me feel like I have seen the sun......

The reason why Pei said good things for Director Wang was mainly to thank him for his advice to make Sima Chong enter the Wang family of Wuxing, "People voted for me with papaya, and repaid it with Qiongju" - in fact, when Director Wang suggested that day, he revealed the meaning of this transaction in and out of his words. After all, Pei and Wang have been married for generations, and they have always had a good relationship, even if Pei Gai and Jiang Dong had a quarrel before, in Pei's view, the root cause is also in Yu Liang, and Director Wang is actually innocent.

It's just that he didn't expect that after Wang Dao made a comeback, the first thing he did was to match the marriage of Sima Shao, the son of the king of Danyang, and Yu Yuanjun, the sister of Yu Liang......

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Wang Dao wrote a book, informing his brother Wang Dun of the situation of Jiankang, and the messenger traveled up the river by boat, and arrived at Wuchang, the seat of Jiangzhou in a few days.

Qian Feng, a staff officer, held the letter and came to see Wang Dun, and saw Wang Chuzhong hugging left and right, and the second concubine in his arms - one concubine sifted wine to serve, and the other concubine peeled oranges and sent them directly into his mouth with a delicate and tender wattle.

Seeing this situation, Qian Feng was forced to stop when he entered the door, and then coughed lightly - this is to remind Wang Dun, I have something important to report, and Duke Ming should hurry up and let the concubines retreat first.

Who would have thought that Wang Dun just raised his head slightly, glanced at Qian Feng, and asked, "Is there something wrong with Shiyi?" Linchuan Xingong orange is very sweet, Shiyi can come to taste new. With a slight squeeze of his left hand, the concubine in the crook of his arm understood, and immediately stood up, holding the orange that Wang Dun had eaten half of the leftover, and wanted to hand it to Qian Feng.

Qian Feng avoided answering, and then said to Wang Dun with a straight face: "Doesn't Ming Gong remember the pain of national turmoil, the hatred of Hu and Qian, the pain of staying away from the countryside, and the humiliation of the high and low name in the "Surname Chronicle", why should you indulge in wine?" I can see Ming Gong every day, the dragon and the tiger, the table of the pillars, the posture of the hero, but what I see today is just a group of rich men - why is this so? ”

Wang Dun pouted: "The court is suspicious of me, Jiankang is jealous of me, Pei Wenyue is waiting for me to be a raccoon dog, Diao and Liu do not want to take away my military power every day, and Mao Hong does not want to cheer up...... What else can I do but the drunken woman? ”

Qian Feng advised: "Ming Gong, people are suspicious, people are jealous, other people's affairs, self-deprecation, self-deprecation, self-destruction, you must not ignore it." The minister has disrespectful words, and Ming Gong listens: Xi Pei Gong is in Xu Fang, isn't Jiankang jealous? Isn't Ming Gong light? The imperial court was embarrassed to the west, and there was no time to pay attention to it. And Pei Gong alone can unite Yan, Henan and Xing the Northern Expedition Division, chase Hu Kou to determine the land of Henan, seek and koji and dominate the government of Guanzhong, the young phoenix in the past, and now have to spread its wings. Could it be that Ming Gong's talent and ambition are not as good as Pei Gong? Gou Si cheered up, the wilderness in the south of the Yangtze River is not as good as the fertile soil of the Central Plains, but the southern raccoon dog and the thief are not comparable to Hu Kou and the slaves, can't they go further? Why is it decadent, the wine is self-entertaining, so that the seven-foot body is damaged by the things in the cup, and the hand of the hand enters the woman's bosom, and the saddling strand is coiled on the couch...... It's not worth plagiarizing.

"Ming Gong also knows that Diao and Liu are using things, and if they want to remove the power of the public army, then people will harm the public, and the public should be vigilant, the sword will not leave the hand, and the handle will not be held upside down, so as to conspire to resist, how can he be bound by the rope? Even if an ordinary rich man covets the industry, he is not willing to give it up, but Ming Gong is a national general and a hero in the sea? And only the name is high and the position is respected, if you lose the military authority, you will not be able to retire as a rich man!

"The minister and Ming Gong said, why did Pei Gong return to Yu Luo, the Son of Heaven, and stay in Taiguanzhong? If you don't return to the Son of Heaven, you will be sick in the world, and you will lose your righteous name; However, the Son of Heaven can return, the land cannot be easy, and the soldiers cannot be replaced, in a word: authority must not be lost! Could it be that Ming Gong's knowledge is far inferior to Pei Gong? Besides, in the gentle township, the most shaved muscles and bones, the body of a woman, the tiredness of a man, after a few days of not seeing, Ming Gong is already haggard, how can he not be vigilant! ”

Wang Dun frowned: "Am I really haggard?" ”

Qian Feng nodded: "The public can take a self-portrait in the mirror." ”

Wang Dun let go of the concubine holding his right arm and ordered her to take a bronze mirror to take a photo, and when she took a photo, she couldn't help but gasp. To say that Wang Chuzhong is also in his fifties, if he really indulges in wine all day long, it will definitely affect his health, but it is only a few days before and after, and theoretically it will not make him look sick. But the problem is that he just drank a lot of wine, his complexion is naturally different from usual, and the bronze mirror of this year is not bright enough, so he has a preconceived idea of Qian Feng's words, so this looks good...... I really don't have the energy to pass away!

But maybe, Wang Dun was actually touched by Qian Feng's advice a long time ago, but he still had to find a step down, so he looked in the mirror and was shocked by the fake model. The two concubines were still planning to move forward, and they also wanted to see what General Wang looked like in the mirror, but Wang Dun stretched out his hand and pushed it, and scolded: "It's all you who hurt me, so don't retreat quickly!" ”

After driving the concubines away, he left the table, looked at Qian Feng deeply, and said, "I was confused for a while, and I didn't even realize it...... Fortunately, Shiyi persuaded him. After a few years, I opened the back door, drove all the concubines, and let them do what they wantedβ€”I hope Shiyi can forgive me. ”

Qian Feng said that he didn't dare, so he presented Wang Daolai's letter with both hands. Wang Dun first invited Qian Feng to sit down, and then opened the letter to take a look, first with a slight smile, and then pursed his lips again, showing dismay.

He explained to Qian Feng: "Mao Hong is in Jiankang, with the help of Concubine Wu Xing, he has returned to politics, which is enough to resist Diao and Liu; However...... For some reason, he recommended Yu Yuangui to the King of Danyang......"

Qian Feng said with a smile: "I know that Ming Gong has always disliked Yu Yuangui, saying that he acted impatiently and used politics absurdly, and the defeat of Mao Honggong the day before yesterday was also affected by it. However, today's enemy is not Yu Yuangui, but Diao and Liu, if you want to go to Diao and Liu, isn't Yuangui the sharpest dagger? I believe that Mao Honggong is by no means an admirer of his people, so it is necessary to use it. ”

Wang Dun pouted and smiled, and said: "Employing people and administering people, so that everyone can make the best use of their talents, I am indeed inferior to Maohong." Then Zhengse asked Qian Feng: "Shiyi just said that as long as I am willing to cheer up, I will be able to go further, but I don't know this step, how to enter the Fa?" ”

Qian Feng was already confident, but he just wanted to find a suitable opportunity to lobby Wang Dun, so he began to talk eloquently. He said: "Today, Pei Gong is in Guanzhong, his grandfather is in Henan, Niu Er, the courtier, and the Hu Kou and Qiannu outside, thinking that he has high merit, and he dares to despise Ming Gong. And if they can really chase Hu and settle the society, then a piece of paper can dismiss the soldiers of the Ming Gong, if the Ming Gong obeys, and waits for the prisoner, I am afraid that the Langya Wang family will retire in the "Surname Chronicle"; If Ming Gong does not obey, with the weak pawn on the river, how can he resist the army of tigers and wolves in the Central Plains? ”

Wang Dun frowned and said, "Then what should I do, so that there will be a turnaround?" ”

Qian Feng replied: "Diao and Liu Zhiyi are to weaken Jiangnan, and the imperial court is not taboo, and Pei Gong and others have no worries." However, with the intention of Ming Gong, is it to rebel against the imperial court? However, he wants to stabilize the river for the imperial court and become a master of his business. If Jiangnan has been empty for a long time, it may be difficult to find the merit of determining the country, and after all, it will be short-sighted by Pei, Zu-Diao, Liu, etc., and they will not be able to consider this, so they will be chaotic.

"If the Ming Duke wants to make the Langya Wang clan noble, he will have to fight against Pei and Zu, and even hope to replace him, so he must first regain authority and have heavy troops. If the river is up and down, the boat is owned by your family, and the soldiers listen to your family's orders, even if Pei and Zu can chase Hu Kou, and the country is initially decided, they will not dare to seek Jiangnan easily. In this way, the dignity of the king of Danyang will not be replaced, the virtue of the noble family will not be lost, and the Ming Duke is also expected to return to the dynasty to govern. ”

Wang Dun thought for a while, and said slowly: "The soldiers in Jiangnan today are half in my hands, and only Zhou Shida ......"

Sima Rui, the king of Danyang, was appointed to rule Jiangnan, but he actually couldn't manage all the six states and hundred counties; Wang Dun was the general of Zhendong and the military governor of the six states, but he could not mobilize all the soldiers and horses in the south of the Yangtze River.

Wang Dunshi led the history of Jiangzhou Thorn, Jiangzhou was newly placed in the era of Emperor Hui of Jin, and the three counties of Guiyang, Wuchang and Ancheng in Jingzhou were Jiangzhou. Later, in the era of Emperor Huai of the Jin Dynasty, it was divided into Changsha, Hengyang, Xiangdong, Lingling, Shaoling, Guiyang and Guangzhou's Shi'an, Shixing, and Linhe nine counties in Xiangzhou; After Sima Ye ascended the throne, there were only two counties left in Jiangzhou, and they were not adjacent to each other, but Changsha County was changed to Jiangzhou - there were three counties in Jiangzhou, and there were as many as eight counties in Xiangzhou.

Now the politics of these two states are all in the hands of Wang Dun, plus Yangzhou in the east has Wang Dao as the history of thorns, and Jingzhou in the west has the history of thorns from his younger brother Wang Xuan, and the momentum of the Wang family is huge and difficult to control - the southern Jiaotong and Guangzhou are too remote and barren, and they can be ignored for the time being. It's just that the armies of Jiang and Hunan are almost all Wang Dun's private soldiers - the indigenous giants' own armed forces - the army of Yangzhou, Wang Dao can barely be moved, but Wang Xuan's pawn in Jingzhou is completely uncontrollable.

The person in charge of Jingzhou's military and political affairs was actually Zhou Shida's visit. Previously, Zhou Wan succeeded Tao Kan and led the army into Jingzhou to encircle and suppress Du Zeng and other rogues, and Wang Dun promised to order him to be the assassin of Jingzhou after breaking the enemy. But when Jingzhou was really roughly pacified, Wang Chuzhong broke his word and fattened, gave the position of assassin to his younger brother Wang Xuan, and wanted to change Zhou Wan to Guangzhou Assassin. Zhou Wan was furious, and led the troops to be stationed in the important town of Xiangyang, resolutely refusing to obey his orders - Wang Dun also took him without a move.

Therefore, Wang Duncai said, I Langya Wang wants to be in charge of the politics of Jiangnan, and I want to completely control the military power in Jiangnan, and the biggest obstacle is Zhou Visit. Qian Feng nodded in agreement, and then said: "I have a plan to make Zhou Shida not be burdened by Ming Gong, and Ming Gong can make a great contribution to the court because of this!" ”
