Chapter 270: Signs of Civil Strife
"Xiangguo, Tao Qiujun wants to send troops alone to fight against Chu State, do you also agree with this?" In Le Cheng's mansion, Si Kou Huarong asked with doubts.
"Of course no opinion! I, Le's, have no interests in Xiangyi, so it is naturally none of my business if it is attacked by the Chu State. Now that Ziyan is willing to come forward, then I naturally won't stop it! Le Cheng said as a matter of course.
Hearing his words, Hua Rong immediately asked with a strange face: "Xiangguo, if you think so, then you have a wrong idea!" Now Ziyan owns Taoqiu and has a lot of power in the Song Kingdom, even if the coal and iron mines opened by Xiangyi are occupied by the Chu army, what does it have to do with him? He is so enthusiastic about this matter, I am afraid that he has other thoughts! ”
Le Cheng's heart moved, and he asked without seeing an expression on his face: "Then tell me, what other thoughts does Ziyan have?" ”
Hua Rong smiled and said, "What Ziyan wants now is naturally Xiangguo's position!" ”
Hearing Hua Rong's words, Le Cheng's face immediately changed greatly. Of course, he knew that today's Dai Yan has governed Taoqiu more and more prosperously, and his reputation in the entire Song Kingdom is skyrocketing. However, during Le Cheng's tenure as Xiangguo, although Song Guo had some changes, he still looked lifeless overall. This also makes Dele Cheng in Xiangguo's position more and more pressured.
After all, Le Cheng is an old man, and he quickly jumped out of Hua Rong's words just now: "Hua Rong, what is your purpose in provoking the relationship between me and Ziyan so much, you can say it clearly!" ”
Seeing Le Cheng behaving like this, Hua Rong also sighed a little. He immediately said: "Xiangguo misunderstood, I didn't mean to provoke the relationship between you and Ziyan. In my opinion, the existence of Ziyan not only threatens your status, but also threatens the status of the king, I just want to solve the trouble for the king! ”
Seeing that Le Cheng still didn't believe it, he said openly and honestly: "Ziyan is a human being and has great ambitions!" After operating in Taoqiu for several years, his strength is extremely strong now, if he is allowed to continue to develop, in the end, his strength in the Song Kingdom will definitely surpass that of the king, causing huge turmoil in my Song Kingdom! At this moment, we should take advantage of his entry into Suiyang and join forces to destroy him in one fell swoop! In this way, Xiangguo does not have to worry about the threat of the phase, and I can also eliminate hidden dangers for the king, which is a matter of killing two birds with one stone! ”
Hearing Hua Rong's words, Le Cheng's face was cloudy, and finally he said as if he had made up his mind: "How do you want to get rid of Ziyan?" After getting rid of him, how will you explain to the king? ”
Hua Rong replied, "Tonight, I can invite Ziyan to the banquet, and at the banquet, I can directly use the assassin to kill him!" And Xiangguo needs to mobilize Le's power in advance to control the entire Suiyang. At that time, we can report the news of Ziyan's desire to rebel and make trouble to the king, and the king can only admit our behavior at that time! ”
Hearing Hua Rong's suggestion, Le Cheng thought about it for a long time. Then he made up his mind and said, "Since you are so sure, then I agree with your suggestion, I will mobilize the Le clan's soldiers to control the city gate tonight, and the rest is up to you!" ”
"Of course!" Hua Rong said with a smile.
Subsequently, the two discussed the specific details of the operation, and only after all aspects were considered clearly did Hua Rong leave.
Hua Rong, who left Xiangguo's mansion, ordered his subordinates to give Dai Yan an invitation and invited him to a banquet in the evening. Then the Song State Grand Sikou did not return to the mansion directly, but changed his clothes in the car, dressed as an inconspicuous appearance, got off the car in a remote place in Suiyang, and entered a remote alley.
After Hua Rong entered the alley, he also looked nearby, and after making sure that no one was paying attention and no one was following, he went straight to the gate of a courtyard, and after knocking on the door of the courtyard, a vigilant voice came from the courtyard: "Who?" ”
"After Huadu!" Hua Rong replied calmly.
Hearing his response, the door opened a crack in the door, revealing a wary face. After the visitor saw Hua Rong, his face showed surprise, and he immediately invited him into the door and brought him into the courtyard.
Such an inconspicuous courtyard, but the area inside is extremely large. Hua Rong didn't feel strange at all, he walked into the depths of the courtyard with ease, where dozens of people were practicing various martial arts. Judging by their athletic movements, these people don't know how long they've been training!
Subsequently, Hua Rong met a lean middle-aged man. As soon as the middle-aged man saw Hua Rong, he said unceremoniously: "What happened that you need to run here in person?" ”
Hua Rong replied: "The Dai clan infighting is coming, and the time has come for me to wait for revenge!" This time, we must mobilize our forces in the Song State, and we must also try our best to fight for the foreign aid of the Chu State. Whether we can regain the hatred of the former annihilation and our future status in the Song Kingdom depends on our performance this time! ”
The middle-aged man was also very excited when he heard that the time for revenge had come! He asked Hua Rong to stay here for a while, and then he sent a person to contact the outside world and asked someone to inform the people of Chu.
At this time, Hua Rong asked again: "You should also have contact with the Xiang family, what do they think about this matter?" ”
The middle-aged man said with an angry expression: "The Xiang clan is now a complete empty shelf, and Huangxi gave them a position of Sima and enveloped them, which is really a shame for my Huan clan!" This time, we would have succeeded without them! ”
Soon after, a nervous figure also entered this courtyard, and this person was Tang Yi, the envoy of the Chu State who had come to the Song State to put pressure on the Song State court.
When Tang Yi saw Hua Rong, he was a little stunned at first, and then said meaningfully: "Lord Ling Yin said that he has been in the Song Kingdom for many years, and promised me that he will definitely be able to get assistance when he comes to the Song Kingdom, is it Lord Si Kou?" ”
Hua Rong replied, "You guessed right! In the next place, he was ordered by Lord Yin to come to the Song Kingdom. Now we are going to do a big thing in the Song Kingdom, and we urgently need the assistance of the Chu State to us, and I hope you can bring our demands back! ”
After Tang Yi listened, he immediately nodded in agreement. Then he asked: "I have heard that the prince of the Song State said in the court that he will lead the army to fight against the army of my Chu State alone, but is there such a thing?" ”
"Rest assured, Lord Envoy, Ziyan's statement is just a statement! As long as he dies, Song Junzixi will inevitably be extremely angry, and then we only need to hide in the shadows and wait for the infighting between the Huang clan and the Le clan! After these two clans are defeated, it is time for me to benefit from the fisherman! As long as we can take charge of the Song State, the Song State must be the only Chu State horse leader Zhan! Hua Rong assured Tang Yi.
got Hua Rong's promise, Tang Yi was also very happy. He encouraged Hua Rong a few more words before withdrawing from the courtyard gate. And after he returned to the post house, he immediately informed the guards of the Chu State accompanying him, ordering them to set off quickly and leave Suiyang, he already had a premonition that the entire Song State would fall into an unprecedented civil strife!
Hua Rong, who was in the courtyard, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Tang Yi, the envoy of Chu, who had been sent away, and began to think about his past and future.
He was an aristocrat of ordinary origin who grew up in the state of Chu since he was a child. In the state of Chu, as a nobleman with a foreign surname, he was subjected to various ostracisms since he was a child, and he could not fully integrate into the circle of the nobles of the Chu state.
Whenever he faced this rejection and asked his father, his father would say to him with a sigh: "Son, it is not our fault that I am ostracized, because my roots are not in the Chu State!" ”
When Hua Rong asked his father where his roots were, his father would face the north and reply with a pious face: "The Heavenly Destiny Xuanniao descended to give birth to Shang!" Our foundation is in the Song Kingdom in the north! ”
Subsequently, his father told him about the glory of the Song Kingdom, and told him about their former fame!
Dazai Huafudu, who was once in a prominent position, saw that the wife of Confucius (the ancestor of Confucius) was beautiful, so he killed him and took his wife; Song Jun was dissatisfied with his position, and Father Hua killed the king and set up a new king!
Hua Yuan, the ruling power of the Song State, in order to make the Chu State retreat, was able to personally enter the Chu army camp as an assassin and hijack the Great Sima of the Chu State! In order to make the Chu State and the Jin State stop fighting for hegemony, they can advocate the alliance of the army and maintain peace for the world for decades!
The Hua family has always been an ambitious and careerist family!
Hua Rong, who was young at a young age, was extremely excited when he heard the deeds of these ancestors, and he also admired the skill of the ancestors to tilt over a country! He is determined to realize the glory of his ancestors in the future and control the entire Song Kingdom!
Fahrenheit was indeed prominent when the Song Kingdom was prominent, but it was also downcast when they were down. During the Huaxiang Rebellion two hundred years ago, they had to leave the Song Kingdom. As for this turmoil, after Hua Rong understood the details, he had a bitter hatred for the Song State Office and even the old aristocratic Dai clan at that time!
The rebellion of Song Guohua two hundred years ago was a matter that was difficult to tell who was right and who was wrong. Hua and Xiang, who are both members of the Huan family, because of their huge contributions to the Song State, soared in the Song State and began to become high-flying. Their actions aroused the dissatisfaction of the monarch of the Song State and the old aristocratic Dai clan, and the Huaxiang Rebellion broke out.
After the monarch and the Dai clan, that is, the current Huang clan and the Le clan, joined forces, they successfully eliminated the Huan clan, and the Hua clan completely disappeared from the political arena of the Song State, and the strength of the Xiang clan was greatly weakened and became an empty shell today.
Although Fahrenheit disappeared from the political scene of the Song Kingdom, this did not mean that Fahrenheit's power was completely extinguished. When Fahrenheit was prosperous, the power leaned towards the Song State, and the power of the entire Song State was rapidly expanded, thus forming countless local powers throughout the Song State. Even after two hundred years of replacement, these heroes still haven't completely died out!
As a family specializing in ministers and careerists, Hua has never forgotten to return to the stage of the Song Kingdom!
