The sudden death of Emperor Xiaowu was like a boulder thrown into the sea, splashing monstrous waves and rippling one after another.

Religions, families, Hanmen and other forces are all ready to move, and they all want to make the most of the benefits in the next game.

The local powerful faction headed by Wang Gong was unwilling to be held by Sima Daozi because he was unwilling to be held by Sima Daozi, and wanted to raise troops to clear the king's side.

Wang Gong's unusual movements aroused Sima Daozi's vigilance, and all kinds of signs indicated that Wang Gong had colluded with Liu Gaozhi, the marshal of Beifu.

And Wang Gong's rebellion was intolerable to the imperial court, especially Sima Daozi.

However, in the face of the strong soldiers of Beifu, he was helpless, so he could only summon his henchmen to discuss countermeasures.

This night, in the palace of King Huiji, Sima Daozi twisted his beard, looked at his son and confidant Wang Guobao, and his face was full of anxiety.

"The widow originally thought that Wang Gong only wanted to be a Wang Dao and Xie An at best, but he thought that he wanted to emulate Wang Dun and Huan Wen, the two traitors."

"Right now, Wang Gong has frequent secret meetings with Liu Gaozhi and other old generals in Beifu in Jingkou and Xuzhou, what does he want to do?!"

"This person's wolf ambition is obvious."

Sima Daozi raised two eyebrows, and said with annoyance: "It's no wonder that the widow didn't take advantage of him when he entered Beijing to mourn, so that today's disaster was caused." ”

"The widow is really remorseful, he really deserves to be interrupted, but he suffers from it!"

"I heard that he is preparing to clear the monarch's side and Su Chaogang."

"Humph! What kind of gentleman is Qing, and he didn't come to the widow? ”

Next to him, Wang Baoguo echoed: "King, if we don't try to get rid of Wang Gong, I'm afraid we will die and have no place to bury." ”

Just as Sima Daozi and his son were secretly discussing with Wang Guobao how to get rid of Wang Gong, they heard a report from someone outside the door.

"The king, the prince, Lujiang is too shou Zhang Fashun to ask to see."

When Sima Yuanxian heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows and shouted happily: "Quick, let him in." ”

"Zhang Fashun? What is he doing here? Yuan Xian, did you call him? Sima Daozi asked with a frown.

"Back to my father, this Zhang Fashun is a new talent recruited by his son, and he has a lot of intelligence."

After a while, I saw a middle-aged man walk in.

The person who came was very majestic, walked to the king of Huiji with easy steps, and bowed: "The king is well." ”

Sima Daozi looked Zhang Fashun up and down, and said casually: "Get up." ”

Zhang Fashun is good at observing words and colors, and as soon as he sat down, he found that the faces of the three people present were not very good-looking.

At that moment, he owed a debt and asked, "The king seems to be preoccupied, but what is wrong with him?" ”

Sima Daozi raised his eyes and glanced at Zhang Fashun, and did not bother with others, but looked at his son.

Sima Yuanxian hurriedly replied: "Father, Fashun is not an outsider, and he is known to be quick-witted, if you have anything unspeakable, you might as well ask him for advice." ”

Thanks to Sima Yuanxian's strong recommendation, Sima Daozi reluctantly told Zhang Fashun the ins and outs of the matter.

"That Wang Gongmu has no court, has ill intentions, and has been plotting against him recently, trying to raise troops to clear the king's side."

"It turns out that King Xiang is worried about Wang Gong, so in the next opinion, this matter is easy to hear."

Sima Yuanxian asked eagerly: "I wonder if Mr. has a good plan?" ”

Zhang Fashun lowered his head, thought for a while, and said, "Wang Gong's family has always been dissatisfied with the king. ”

"When the first emperor was alive, he repeatedly suggested to the Son of Heaven to depose the throne of the Great King Zaifu, but was rejected by the Son of Heaven."

"Now that the emperor has died, the power of the court has been completely in the hands of the king."

"That Wang Gong must be very unwilling in his heart, and it is not surprising that he wants to raise troops to Qingjun's side."

"What about the plan?" Sima Daozi asked worriedly.

Zhang Fashun waved his hand and said very decisively: "The king is worried, and Wang Gong is not enough to worry about in the eyes of the ministers. ”

"The person Wang Gong relies on is none other than Liu Gaozhi and his Beifu soldiers."

"If you can send a person who argues to take advantage of Liu Gaozhixiao, saying that he will fight back, then Wang Gong will definitely be defeated."

"In addition, the king can also ask King Qian to woo Liu Yu by the way."

"Even if Liu Yu is not on our side, we have to let him remain neutral."

"With such a loss of wings, how much storm can Wang Gong set off?"

"Liu Yu is okay to say, people are soft-spoken, and it doesn't matter if they are wooed or not."

"On the contrary, Liu Gaozhi has a heavy army in his hands, and he is cunning, I'm afraid it will not be easy to win over."

"The king is too worried, Liu Gaozhi is greedy by nature and has no foresight, as long as the king is allowed to take the title of a high-ranking official, he is not afraid that he will not be moved."

"Hahaha, sir, this is a wonderful plan!"

……

Not surprisingly, the death of the Son of Heaven forced the great Northern Expedition to stop halfway.

Whether it was the main general Sima Shangzhi or the striker Liu Yu, everyone took their eyes off the great cause of the Northern Expedition and focused on the changes in the DPRK and China.

Among them, Sima Shangzhi was instructed by Sima Daozi's father and son to try to win over Liu Yu to join the party of King Huiji.

On this day, taking advantage of the fact that there was nothing to do on the front line, Sima Shangzhi carried a heavy gift and went to visit Liu Yu.

Liu Yu was quite surprised by Sima Shangzhi's visit, but the other party visited at this critical moment, and he must have nothing to do without going to the Three Treasures Palace.

Although he had no intention of switching to the king of Huiji, Liu Yu did not take the liberty of turning Sima Shangzhi away.

At present, he is no longer stunned, and after years of experience, he has transformed into an old oilman in officialdom.

Liu Yu personally went out of the camp and ceremoniously brought Sima Shangzhi into the camp.

"Hahaha, I didn't know that the king was coming, please forgive me for not being able to meet you from afar."

Sima Shangzhi smiled and said calmly: "Hehehe, Dezhi is polite." ”

In the big tent, the two sat down as guests and hosts, and Liu Yu personally served tea to Sima Shangzhi.

"This tea is a gift from the protector of the capital, dare to invite the king to taste it."

"Oh? Is it? But the widow will taste it. ”

After the greetings at the moment, Liu Yu didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "I don't know why the king came here today?" ”

"Besides, I brought so many gifts, which really makes me scared."

Sima Shangzhi elegantly picked up the lid of the cup, gently plucked the tea leaves floating on the water, and tasted the fragrance of tea with endless aftertaste.

He pondered his words and said: "In the Northern Expedition, the world heard of the great name of Deyi, and the prime minister Sumu Dezhi was brave. ”

"These are all the intentions of the Prime Minister, and he specially asked me to transfer them to Dezhi."

Liu Yu smiled when he heard this, and he did not say that he intended to join the king of Huiji, nor did he say no.

In this way, Sima Shangzhi gradually lost his breath.

He asked tentatively: "Dezhi, you have always claimed to be a loyal servant of the imperial court, what if someone raises an army to rebel?" ”

"Since you have been ordered by the king to go out to quell the rebellion!" Liu Yu cut the railway.

"As long as the Son of Heaven decrees, even if it is on the Sword Mountain and the Sea of Fire, he will not hesitate to do so."

Such a scene could not satisfy Sima Xiuzhi at all.

So, he stopped going around in circles, looked at Liu Yu and asked, "I don't know what De Zhi thinks of the former general Wang Gong?" ”

"This ......" Liu Yu deliberately embarrassed.

"It's just a martial artist in the next place, how can you evaluate the feudal officials who defend one side?"

"Everyone in the court said that Wang Gong was ambitious, and he had the heart to raise troops to rebel, so couldn't he have heard of it?"

Liu Yu said secretly, this Sima Shangzhi came under the banner of King Huiji, obviously trying to persuade himself to join the party of King Huiji.

But he didn't know his own background and background, and it had been decided that Liu Yu would not be able to take refuge in King Huiji.

However, at the moment, Liu Yu is weak, and he doesn't want to turn his face with King Huiji.

Thinking of this, Liu Yu said vaguely: "King Huiji has been in charge of the government for many years and has a huge power. ”

"Even if someone raises an army to rebel, it is not easy to put down the rebellion?"

"If the imperial court sends an edict to suppress the rebellion, will Dezhi obey it?"

"As long as the Son of Heaven sincerely gives the order, he will definitely obey it."

"However, in Qingzhou, I'm afraid I can't do it."

"It's okay, it's okay, as long as Dezhi has this heart."

Sima Shangzhi was overjoyed, although he didn't get Liu Yu's personal promise, at least he heard that the other party would not support Wang Gong.

waited for Liu Yugang to fool Sima Shangzhi away, but saw his henchman Suo Chengming walking out from the side.

"My lord, once Wang Gong and the father and son of the Huiji King start a war, which side do you plan to stand on?"

"The dispute between Wang Gong and King Huiji, to put it bluntly, is just to compete for the dominance of the DPRK and China, and it is all for their own selfishness."

"I have no enmity with either party, they fight to the death, it's our business."

He turned his head to look at Suo Chengming, and said with a smile: "No matter how authoritarian the father and son of King Huiji are, it also represents the court and the Son of Heaven." ”

"And Wang Gong's army is completely committed by the following, his name is not right, his words are not good, and it is estimated that he will have a slim future."

"As for us, we naturally have to stand with the imperial court."

"However, I will not really intervene in the war between the two sides, I will only sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight."

"It seems that the lord is going to reap the benefits."

"Not bad! It is important to know that the disputes caused by the death of the first emperor will never end in a short time. ”

"Wang Gong is just a reason, and greater turmoil is yet to come."

"Our forces are too small to intervene too early, otherwise we will be torn to pieces by other forces."

"The Lord is wise!"

Suo Chengming's face was full of admiration, and he felt more and more wise about switching to Liu Yu at the beginning.

In the face of great temptation, how many people can keep a cool head like Liu Yu?

It can be seen that Liu Yu is indeed a person who does great things.
