Sixty-eight puppets

It was late October, and the north wind was getting colder and colder, and the weather was freezing, and the armor was difficult to control, and the horn bow was difficult to control.

Ji Shubi was allowed to walk out of the mansion and climb the city wall to visit, only to see him wrap himself in a thick thick thick curtain and walk side by side with Fang Li on the city wall.

This is also the second time he has walked on the city wall, in the night before the two armies fought, Fang Li sent someone to bring him to the city wall to boost the morale of the Yu army, at that time Ji Shubi was so frightened that he hid in the city wall and shivered, lest he would be injured by the arrows.

Fortunately, in the end, the Yuyu coalition won the victory and captured a large number of Jin troops, which made Ji Shubi breathe a sigh of relief, his legs were already weak with fright, and he walked down the city wall tremblingly.

"Ahh......h Finally won the battle, otherwise the widow would have been a prisoner of the Jin Kingdom! When Ji Shubi returned to the mansion, he still had palpitations and was afraid.

Although he is now under Fang Li's control, he is at least the nominal monarch of the Kingdom of Yu, if it falls into the hands of the Jin army, it is not a matter of whether he can keep his name, but whether he can keep the head of Xiang Shang!

"It's freezing on this day, what is General Fang doing with the widow on the city wall...... Ahh ”

Ji Shubi kept sneezing, and kept warming his hands with hot air, and at this moment he missed the days of pampering in Xingyang.

Fang Li smiled, stretched his muscles, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, look at the difference between today's outside the city and after the war?" ”

Ji Shubi stretched his neck and groaned, "Hmm...... The corpses are gone, and there are still a lot of blood stains in the wilderness, huh...... What about the captured Jin soldiers, did they all run away? ”

Fang Li nodded: "Gong Yu's eyes are not bad, I didn't bring you to the city wall to see the scenery, not to find differences, not to blow the wind, but to let you understand a truth......

"Straight talk, straight talk!" Uncle Ji tightened his shirt.

"Six or seven thousand people can disappear, let alone one person, whether it is a national prince or a grass people, there is no difference after death!" Fang Li's face sank, and his murderous aura suddenly grew.

Ji Shubi was startled, and hurriedly dodged back: "You, you...... What is the intention? ”

Fang Li suddenly changed his smile, and his tone became kind: "It's not that I want to harm you, but there are other people who want to harm you, and I, I want to protect you, understand?" ”

Ji Shubi sneered: "Fang Li, the widow is fed up with you, what kind of conspiracy do you have?" ”

Fang Li suddenly raised his hand and pressed it on Ji Shubi's shoulder: "Gong Yu, please don't be impatient, listen to my analysis slowly!" ”

Fang Li's strength was extremely great, and he couldn't move anymore after holding Ji Shubi, and he was shocked and frightened in his heart: "Then who do you say wants to harm the widow?" ”

Fang Li said slowly: "The country can't be without a king for a day, if the civil and military forces of the Kingdom of Yu know that their lord has become a puppet at the mercy of others, what choice will they make?" ”

Uncle Ji was shocked when he heard this, his expression suddenly dimmed, and he snorted, "Yes...... Will there be another monarch? My third brother has coveted the position of the prince of the country for a long time, and there are many supporters, will they take advantage of the widow's arrest to appoint the third brother as the main prince? ”

Thinking of this, Uncle Ji howled and cried, and threw Fang Lichang to the ground: "General Fang, the widow begs you to let me go?" If I don't go back, they will definitely support the third brother as the monarch of the kingdom, I don't want to lose the position of the prince of Yu, I have only been doing it for less than a year, please raise your noble hand! ”

Fang Li hurriedly helped Uncle Ji Bi: "Hey, hey...... O Duke Yu, you must not do it, you are the king of a country, how can you do such a great gift to me? I am telling you these words today just to help you keep your position as the Duke of Yu, how can it harm you? ”

Only then did Ji Shubi stop crying, and wiped the tears with his sleeve: "How can General Fang help me keep the position of Duke Yu?" ”

"Prove that you still have power!"

Ji Shubi looked dazed: "The widow can't even get out of Hanoi now, how can I prove that I still have the right?" ”

Fang Li pointed to the east: "First remove Dong Sheng from the position of general, arrange a few people who support you to control the military power, and then remove Sun Zhong from the position of prime minister, and arrange a person who supports you to take over the position, so that you can keep your position as the Duke of Yu." ”

Dong Sheng is an old minister of the three dynasties of the Kingdom of Qiu, not a descendant of Ji Shubi, Ji Shubi is really afraid that he will support his brother to ascend the throne, and when he heard Fang Li's provocation, he moved his mind to take down Dong Sheng.

"If Dong Sheng is removed, who will take the position? And does this prove that the widow still has power? ”

Fang Lichao pointed at Zhang Liao, who was arranging defenses on the city wall; "Zhang Wenyuan can be literate and martial, and he once beheaded the general of the Kingdom of Yu in Louzhai, and shocked the Jin Kingdom, so that he could take over Dong Sheng's control of the military power, first, he could keep your position as Duke Yu, and second, he could command the soldiers to defeat the Jin army and defend the Kingdom of Qiu, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone."

Ji Shubi's thinking had been completely controlled by Fang Li, and he couldn't help it, knowing that if he did what Fang Li said, he would hand over the power of the Kingdom of Yu to others, but at least there would be a buffer period, and he might be able to seize the opportunity to escape.

And if he didn't act according to Fang Li's words, those old ministers in Xingyang who opposed him would probably support their brother to ascend the throne tomorrow, and they would become worthless by then!

"Okay, the widow listens to you, remove Dong Sheng from the position of general, and replace it with Zhang Liao."

Uncle Ji put his heart sideways, anyway, he can't keep his position as a duke, so it's better to gamble.

At that moment, Ji Shubi and Fang Li returned to the Taishou Mansion side by side, and wrote an edict in his own handwriting, announcing that Dong Sheng would be transferred back to Xingyang to sit in the town, and Zhang Liao would be the general, commanding the army stationed in Chenggao, and finally stamping the Huanghuang Great Seal.

After the edict was completed, Fang Li immediately summoned Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun, and ordered the two to lead 3,000 soldiers to Chenggao to take over the military power. If it really doesn't work, come and capture the thief and capture the king, and cut Dong Sheng to the ground first.

"General, please rest assured, the two of us will definitely live up to our mission when we go!"

Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun were ordered, bid farewell to Fang Li together, and led 3,000 soldiers to leave Hanoi and embark on the journey east to Chenggao.

After Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun left, Ji Shubi was still worried, and it was difficult to sleep and eat, so he took the initiative to find Fang Li: "General, just replacing Dong Sheng is not safe, Sun Zhong is a wall-to-wall grass, if he falls to my third brother, it will not be good!" I don't think I'll just do it, I'll send another edict and remove him, the prime minister, right? ”

Fang Li smiled slightly: "Don't worry, as long as you control the military power, you won't be afraid of those civil officials in Xingyang, when the time comes, they dare to support your third brother as the master, and I will send troops to fight against these rebellious thieves for you!" ”

"Well, everything for the widow is on the general!"

Uncle Ji wanted to cry without tears, Fang Li was originally the person he hated the most, but now he has become the object he needs to rely on, who to reason with?
