When the news of Hexi's desire to break away from the Jin family and stand on his own reached Jiangling, Huan Xuan couldn't help but be overjoyed.

He was even ready to send people to Hexi, trying to persuade Wei Shuo to join him in the army.

Unexpectedly, the envoy from Jingzhou here has not yet set off, and rumors have spread all over Jiangzuo.

Just as Huan Xuan was still investigating the source of the rumors, Jiankang had reconciled with Hexi.

The imperial court not only married the princess of Jinling to Dadu Hu, but also planned to issue a decree to entitle Wei Shuo as the king with a different surname.

When the news came, there was an uproar inside and outside the government and the opposition.

No one expected that the king with a different surname, who had disappeared for hundreds of years, would see the light of day again.

"Is Wei Shuo still on the table, please be exempted?"

"Yes! In just a few days, Wei Shuo asked for exemption three times, and it seems that he is very self-aware. ”

"That Wei Shuo was born in a poor family, what qualifications does he have to call him a prince?"

"That's it, that's it! It seems that he has been dealing with Hu Lu all year round, and he has also learned from Hu Ren to be crowned with monkeys. ”

The surrounding Huan clan disciples kept making mockery, but Huan Xuan's eyes flickered, but he didn't say anything to stop it.

Bian Fanzhi next to him saw all this in his eyes and knew it for a long time.

To put it bluntly, the Huan family is red-eyed, jealous, and greedy, and they also want to be like Wei Shuo and be a prince.

However, Jingzhou is not the same as Hexi.

No matter what you say, that Dadu Hu is not an indigenous official of the Southern Dynasty, and the impact of not being the king is not too great.

And this is also one of the important reasons why Sima Daozi finally followed Wang Mi's advice.

But if Huan Xuan wants to learn from Wei Shuo and ask the court for the prince, it is almost impossible.

Think back then, with the prestige of Huan Wen, he still had to be crowned the position of a county duke, not to mention Huan Xuan, who lacked prestige?

Moreover, since the Han Gaozu Liu Bang punished the white horse and made an alliance, it was stipulated that no one with a different surname could not be a king.

Any non-clan minister becoming king basically means a change of dynasty.

If Huan Xuan did this, it would be almost no different from pulling the flag and rebelling.

But is Jingzhou ready for an uprising? Does the Huan family have the ability to replace the Jin family?

Judging from the comparison of strength, Jingzhou is indeed not as strong as the imperial court, but Bian Fanzhi thinks that the time is ripe for trouble.

Now that the elite of Beifu is deep in the southeast, it is the time when Jiankang's strength is the weakest.

If Jingzhou raises a large army and rushes straight to Jiankang with lightning speed, it will be able to settle the battle in one battle.

And he had mentioned this to Huan Xuan before, but Huan Xuan was afraid of Liu Yu in Beifu, so he hesitated in his heart and couldn't make up his mind.

But this time, the imperial court suddenly enshrined Dadu as the king, which made Bian Fanzhi see the opportunity to force Huan Xuan to raise troops.

"Can the Duke of Nanjun know why the imperial court suddenly enshrined Dadu as King Yong this time?"

"I wish to hear the long history of high view."

"I heard that at the beginning, Hexi planned to support Daduhu and stand on his own, but for some reason Daduhu always refused."

"Yes, this Wei Zhiyuan's behavior is really incomprehensible." Huan Xuan said with a frown.

"A few days ago, there was a lot of uproar in Guanzhong, and some people even publicly declared that they wanted to support Wei Zhiyuan as the emperor, and the prince would fall out with the imperial court when Hexi would do so."

"Unexpectedly, things soon changed dramatically, and now Hexi and the imperial court are not only reconciled, but Wei Zhiyuan has also won the position of a prince for nothing."

"In fact, this time, most of the protectors can do their best to be powerful and beautiful, and they can't get rid of Nanjun Gong."

"Something to do with something?" Huan Xuan was stunned.

"Do you remember that rumor?"

"At that time, we only had an idea just now, and we hadn't had time to implement it at all, but somehow it spread all over Jiangzuo all at once."

"Now that I think about it, there must be someone in this who is contributing to the trouble."

"But no matter who it was, in the end, the imperial court felt threatened by Jingzhou, and had to make compromises to Hexi."

"It's disgusting!" Huan Xuan said with a depressed face.

"Although we were calculated, through this incident, I saw the weak nature of the court."

"My lord, please think about it, if the imperial court is not afraid of Jingzhou, why would Sima Daozi bow his head to Hexi?"

"Yes! Listening to Changshi's words, Bengong suddenly realized. ”

"My lord, now is the time not to be missed!"

"The elite of Beifu is trapped in the southeast, and they have no time to take care of Jiankang."

"At this time, as long as the lord leads the elite down the river, he will be able to conquer Jiankang in one fell swoop."

"At that time, Sima Daozi and a gang of traitors will be killed, and the lord will be able to monopolize the power of the DPRK."

"And then follow the example of Wei Wu Cao Cao, and coerce the Son of Heaven to order not to obey, so that the big thing can be decided!"

"This ...... Is this possible? Huan Xuan was still worried.

Seeing this, Bian Fanzhi couldn't help but hurriedly said: "Oh, if the lord is still hesitant, he will regret it in the future!" ”

"With the marriage between Hexi and Jiankang, the prestige of the imperial court will surely rise because of this."

"And Sima Daozi has the help of Hexi, and his power has increased greatly, how can he tolerate the existence of Nanjun Gong?"

Hearing this, Huan Xuan's heart suddenly chuckled.

Hexi is far away in the northwest, and there is no conflict with the imperial court, even if people are self-reliant, the Jiangzuo imperial court is helpless.

Because the territory under Hexi was lost before, it was Wei Shuo who led people to shoot it down with a knife and a shot.

The imperial court has no other way than to win over and appease, and the two sides are just broken up.

But Jingzhou is different, although it is far away from Jiankang, but after all, it is a state and county under the name of the imperial court, and he is absolutely allowed to secede it.

In other words, sooner or later, the imperial court will attack Jingzhou.

What should I do now? Is it to follow Bian Fanzhi's proposal to raise the flag and rebel? Or continue to wait and see?

Huan Xuan kept pondering in his heart.

In the end, he suddenly remembered what his father Huan Wen once said, that is, "It can't be remembered for a hundred years, but it must be left for ten thousand years." ”

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but clench his fists.

……

When the situation in the north and south suddenly changed, Liu Yu, who was far away in the southeast, was planning a surprise attack on Huiji County across the sea.

After enlisting the help of the Hexi Naval Division, Liu Yu immediately began to formulate a counterinsurgency plan.

He saw that Wu Jun was only a bay away from Huiji, and a bold surprise attack plan instantly formed in his mind.

Soon, Liu Yu secretly proposed to Yuan Shansong, the Taishou of Wu County, to go south by means of a route, and used the sailors to raid Huiji County.

Originally, Yuan Shansong did not agree to the Beifu soldiers to borrow the road, but Liu Yu repeatedly promised that he would not disturb the place, so he reluctantly agreed.

After getting Yuan Shansong, Liu Yu brought Liu Muzhi over, explained the surprise attack plan and inventory, and asked the other party's opinion.

"Tsk, General Liu really knows the essence of the art of war, and this move just hits the soft underbelly of the rebels."

"What is this? It's not as powerful as most of it! Is there anything else to add? ”

"No, everything will go according to General Liu's plan, and I'll ask Ji Gao to bring the sailor over in a few days."

"Thank you so much for your help."

"If it's okay, then I'll leave." Saying that, Liu Muzhi turned around and was about to leave Liu Yu's big tent.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he lifted the door curtain, he almost collided with a person.

"Oops, it turned out to be the master of the book?! What are you doing here? Gone in such a hurry? ”

"I'm sorry Liu Yousima, I have an urgent matter to discuss with the lord."

After speaking, Suo Chengming didn't wait for Liu Muzhi's reply, so he couldn't wait to walk towards the tent.

And Liu Muzhi stared at the other party's back thoughtfully, and only turned around and left after a while.

Not to mention how Liu Muzhi went back, just said that Suo Chengming brought a big news to Liu Yu as soon as he entered the account.

"What do you say?! The imperial court has decreed that most of the capital will be protected as kings with different surnames? Liu Yu said with a shocked face.

"Yes! When the subordinates got the news, they didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately came over to inform the lord. ”

"Lord, the wind is going to rise in Jiangdong, you have to start preparing."

Liu Yu's eyes froze, nodded lightly and said, "What's going on in Jingzhou?" ”

Sure enough, it was Liu Yu, and he immediately grasped the essence of the matter.

It is not terrible for Wei Shuo to be crowned king, but what is terrible is that some people are jealous.

"There is no movement for the time being, but it is reported that Huan Xuan wanted to unite with Hexi to raise troops together, but later because the imperial court enshrined Dadu as the king with a different surname, it forced this matter to end without a problem."

"In this way, Huan Xuan is still ambitious and eyeing Jiankang?"

"Not bad! If Jingzhou moves, then your chance will come. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"My lord, please think about it, apart from you, the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military house, who else can deal with Nanjun Gonghuan Xuan?"

"Once Huan Xuan starts an army, the imperial court will definitely not be an opponent, and he will definitely ask you for help at that time."

"And the lord first stood still, and let Huan Xuan purge the various forces in the court." ”

"When the time is ripe, the lord will bring the power of quelling the rebellion of the Heavenly Master Dao, and raise troops to the north under the banner of Kuang Fu Zheng."

"Hey, hey! Just with Huan Xuan's playboy, how can he be the opponent of the main father? ”

"After the pacification of Huan Xuan, the power of the DPRK and China will be returned to the lord.

"In this way, the lord is based on Jiangzuo, and he can compete with the northern heroes for the world, and retreat to be able to divide one side without losing the position of prince."
