Chapter Ninety-Four: Envoy to Nanyang
Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Chapter 94: (Envoy to Nanyang)
Liu Xuan thought about it carefully, then looked at the priest and asked, "What does the priest think the general thinks?" ”
was asked by Liu Xuan, Sai Zun hurriedly bowed his head and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, please forgive the rudeness of the general, the world has been in turmoil for a long time, although Gongsun Shu established a dynasty to settle the world, but the feudal system it practiced is the root of the chaos in the world, the eight kings occupy all parts of the thirteen states, support the army and stand on their own, the reason why the current Cheng Dynasty can be safe and sound in Sili Prefecture is just by relying on one person..."
"Who is it?" Liu Xuan couldn't help asking...
The other ministers in the hall couldn't help but look at the priest, and they were all anxious to know who the priest was talking about: "General Sima of the Yuan Cheng Dynasty, King of the East, Shangguan Yin Feng..."
"Shangguan Yin Feng?" Liu Xuan slowly frowned after hearing the name...
The other people in the hall exploded with a buzz, and the reason why this was so was because Shangguan Yin Feng forced Liu Xiu to death, and Liu Xiu was Liu Xuan's brother, and these people, including Liu Xuan, were still quite repulsive to Shangguan Yin Feng...
"Sacrifice Zun, are you the person who said this?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, it's ridiculous to try to let me and others help that thief, please make a decision and strictly investigate the sacrifice..."
Seeing that the military attachés in the hall were attacking the sacrificial group, Jing Dan, who was standing behind the sacrificial zun, stood up in line without hesitation, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, although what the sacrificial general said is a bit abrupt, but its original intention is also for my Han Dynasty, please think twice about this matter..."
"The general said for a long time that the eldest husband can bend and stretch, and we all quote this, Your Majesty, for the sake of the foundation of my Han Dynasty for hundreds of years, please think twice before acting..."
At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the civil and military disputes appeared here again, the civil officials attacked the military attachés, and the military attaches rose up to protect themselves, Liu Xuan seemed to see the ancestors' previous sad faces: "Although it is a great gift to sacrifice the general's words, but his words are indeed for the sake of my Han, sacrifice the general, continue to finish what you said..."
"No..."After Liu Xuan spoke, the hall was temporarily quiet, and the priest continued to say: "Shangguan Yin Feng's grandfather was the general of Xingyang during the Ping Emperor period, and he was killed for resisting Wang Mang, and his son Shangguan Yiyun took refuge in Gongsun Shu, in this regard, Shangguan Yin Fengzu is really my Han courtier, only because he rebelled against Wang Mang ****, and died unexpectedly, which caused Shangguan Yiyun to flee..."
After the priest's words were finished, the main hall began to whisper, and most people didn't know what the priest said...
"If this is the case, then Shangguan Yin Feng is still a military general of my Han Dynasty, but it is a pity that Wang Mang is chaotic and caused Shangguan Yiyun to take refuge in Gongsun Shu, which is really a great regret of my Han Dynasty..."
The reason why Liu Xuan said this is for a reason, the scholar and doctor class of the Cheng Dynasty and those princes and kings are very clear about how the Cheng Dynasty came to be, mainly relying on Shangguan Yiyun, so Shangguan Yiyun can be named the head of the eight kings, if Shangguan Yiyun can serve the Han Dynasty, I am afraid that the current lord of Chang'an is not Liu Jing, but he Liu Xuan, or Liu Xiu...
"Then according to the words of the general, what should I do?" Liu Xuan sighed, then looked at the priest and asked in a deep voice...
Sai Zun took a deep breath, and now although he can say these words happily, he will inevitably offend some people: "Back to the emperor, King Yi Liu Jing is the son of Emperor Jing of my dynasty, after King Hui of Guangchuan, although he took refuge in Gongsun Shu, but he kept my Han dragon vein from being devastated by the war, if you can say that Liu Jing and Shangguan Yin Feng can be moved, then, the matter of Guan Nei will be easily solved, if the situation is better, you can also solve the matter of grain and grass..."
The people in the hall are whispering to each other, and the words of the sacrifice have opened their eyes, many of them don't know these things, after all, these are the affairs of the royal family of the Han Dynasty, some of them are from poor people, and some are just officials in remote places in northern Xinjiang, where do they know these things in the pass, and they are also the descendants of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty...
"King Guangchuan was finally removed from the feudal country, this Liu Jing is my clan again, it is estimated that it is a side branch of decline, in this case, Liu Jing can choose to win over, when the time is ripe, I want to see this uncle in person..."Liu Xuan's ancestor is Liu Fa, the king of Changsha, and King Hui of Guangchuan is the same brother, counting, Liu Xuan has to call Liu Jing an uncle...
"Your Majesty, although the general said so, this is a big deal after all, Liu Jing is now taking refuge in Gongsun Shu, and his allegiance is to the Gongsun family of the Cheng Dynasty, it is estimated that he has completely forgotten the ancestral inheritance, and the minister feels that His Majesty has no need to associate with this traitor seeking glory, so as not to damage His Majesty's reputation..."
"The minister seconded the proposal..."
"Wechen seconded..."
Although the priest is reasoning with these people, the civil officials pay attention to the great etiquette, and I am afraid it is not so simple to let these self-confident civil officials be able to bend and stretch: "Your Majesty, Liu Jing's choice must be unspeakable, otherwise he will not surrender to Gongsun Shu, and the Chang'an Imperial Mausoleum will not be preserved..."
"Joke..."Hearing the words of the priest, a tall and thin civil official stood up in line and retorted loudly: "At the end of the new dynasty, the Red Mei army disturbed the mountains and rivers, and the tomb of Emperor Wu was stolen and excavated. ”
"That's right, Lord Chen has a point..."
There was a lot of discussion in the hall again, the mausoleum of Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty was excavated by the Red Mei Army, and the burial goods inside were used as military salaries, which was well known at the time, and Liu Xuan did have entanglements with the Red Mei Army in history, because a large part of the army under his command was the Red Mei Army's surrender people...
"General Sacrifice, go on..."Although there was a lot of noise below, Liu Xuan still wanted to listen to the sacrifice obey and finish all the rest of the words...
"The emperor, if you want to achieve great things, you don't have to be confined to small sections, the last general is willing to personally send envoys to Nanyang and Chang'an, to find out the news of Shangguan Yin Feng and Yiwang Liu Jing, if successful, the revival of my Han Dynasty will be just around the corner..."
After the words of the priest were finished, the hall was surprisingly quiet, waiting for Liu Xuan's words, after all, Liu Xuan was their master now...
"Ahem..." Liu Xuan relaxed his brows, exhaled, and nodded lightly: "I am Zhun Song, I hope the general's mission will be successful, if the two are united, the general will be the first hero of my Han revival..."
"No..."
The reason why Liu Xuan agreed to the request of the sacrifice was also a last resort, Kou Sui was not there, he could only ask for his opinion to verify the sacrifice, and he was very clear about his own situation, if he did not choose to unite Shangguan Yin Feng and Liu Jing, they would probably not be able to survive next year, and food is the foundation of the world...
The next day, a priest dressed in civilian clothes with more than a dozen guards, disguised a detour, and ran towards Nanyang, with what he carried, in addition to Liu Xuan's handwritten letters, and the ambition to serve the country...
More than ten days later, after a long journey, Sai Zun and others finally arrived at their destination when the night was approaching, Nanyang Mansion in Henan...
Since entering the jurisdiction of Nanyang, the priest has been deeply shocked by the situation in the jurisdiction of Nanyang, the prosperity of the outpost city of Nanyang - Ruyang made him and a dozen guards linger, the fields planted with crops in the passing fields, the mountains and forests are full of fruit trees hanging with branches, this is not the beginning, when they arrived at Nanyang City, although the city gate was guarded by soldiers, but did not ask them for money in and out of the city, this alone made him feel strange...
In other state capitals, every time they entered the city, the guards at the city gate would ask them for silver taels to enter the city, and after arriving at the jurisdiction of Nanyang, as long as they entered the city, no one charged any fees...
And the towns around Nanyang have patrols in teams of five people wearing the same costumes and holding knives in their hands, and the surrounding security is surprisingly good: "I can't imagine that Nanyang is so prosperous, it seems that Ruyang is not as good as one-third of this place at all..."
"General, let's settle down in the tavern first," said a round-faced attendant...
The priest shook his head and said, "You can go to the tavern to eat, stay or go to the inn, the tavern is full of people, it's better to be careful..."
The inn is only in the jurisdiction of Nanyang and Sichuan, this is Shangguan Yin Feng came to Nanyang personally asked to establish a business travel, considering that there are more peddlers and pawns, and the accommodation in the tavern is relatively poor, so Shangguan Yin Feng thought of this good way to make money, set up a chamber of commerce, and then send people around to establish and operate the inn, this is the item, every month can be at least a few thousand taels of silver, Shangguan Yin Feng earns a lot of money...
