Chapter 599: To Each His Own Calculation
p
Wei Shuo stared at Liu Yu in front of him with a frown, and his vigilance increased greatly.
To be honest, although he expected that with Liu Yu's IQ, he would never really have anything to do with the family, but he didn't expect him to talk to him.
Liu Yu pleaded guilty to him, seemingly weak, but in fact he had turned passive into active, thus leaving the center of the storm.
And he dared to snatch food under the nose of Hexi, so that the Liu Yu in front of him had a bit of the demeanor of the first emperor of the Southern Dynasty in history.
Whether it is scheming, means, strategy, or city government, which is the best choice.
For a moment, Wei Shuo almost couldn't help but give the order to kill Liu Yu, but fortunately, reason brought him back to his composure.
It may be easy to kill Liu Yu, but the bad effects will never be eradicated.
In history, Wei Wu didn't kill Liu Bei and Fu Jian treated Murong Trai kindly, is it just the kindness of women? !
No, by no means!
In terms of the circumstances at that time, it was obviously more advantageous to keep Liu Bei and Murong Chui than to kill the other party.
It's just that Cao Cao and Fu Jian got away with it later, so it seems that they are suspicious of being a woman.
If Cao Cao won the Battle of Chibi, he would unify the world.
Wang Meng also lived a few more years to help Fu Jian calm the world, I am afraid it is another evaluation.
What's more, killing people also needs a reason, especially for celebrities, there must be a reasonable reason.
Otherwise, it will only repeat the mistake of Tuoba Jue killing Cui Xiao, which will discourage people of insight.
The same is true now, killing Liu Yu is certainly a hundred.
But it is likely to let the family and Hu Lu fish in troubled waters, and this is the biggest concern in Wei Shuo's heart.
Now that he has finally suppressed Hu Lu, and he is about to surrender the Central Plains family, he must not make any extraneous branches at this time.
In addition, whether it is the pacification of the Central Plains or the Northern Expedition to Nanyan, Liu Yu's cooperation is indispensable.
Moreover, in terms of the current strength of Hexi, the question of whether Liu Yu dies or not is really not big, and it is impossible for him to stop the pace of Wei Shuo's unification.
Wei Shuoqiang cheered up, shook his head vigorously, and left all kinds of chaotic thoughts behind.
"Brother Dezhi understands the righteousness and makes Gu Ming feel guilty."
"Your Highness is serious, the family is plotting rebellion, and the crime is unforgivable, how dare the last general hide it and not report it?!"
"In addition, there is one more thing for the last general, please forgive Your Highness."
"What?"
"I once had a false relationship with the family, I hope Your Highness will not misunderstand."
"Hahaha, don't worry, Brother Dezhi, Lone is not so stingy."
"To be honest, the last general has already received a big gift from the family before."
"I've always been worried about this, for fear that His Highness will misunderstand."
"Now that His Highness has personally promised, the last general is finally relieved."
Then the two chatted for a while, and Liu Yu offered to leave.
Looking at Liu Yu's departing back, Wei Shuo fell into boundless silence.
For what Liu Yu said, he didn't fully believe it, and he couldn't figure it out.
Liu Yu actually wanted to conspire with Hexi to calculate the family, wasn't he afraid of being detected by the family?
It must be known that Jiangdong is not as strong as Hexi, and the local family has a huge power.
Once the family knew that Liu Yu secretly reported to Hexi, he would definitely not be able to eat and walk around.
In addition, he didn't think that Liu Yu went to such great lengths, just to get a little money.
As for Liu Yu's other calculations, he couldn't figure it out for a while.
……
In the middle of the night, a carriage slowly stopped in front of the palace, and Cui Hao got off the carriage with a tired face.
In the rectification, a large number of things were almost pressed on him alone, so that Cui Hao was so busy every day that his feet did not touch the ground.
Even if King Yong transferred Gao Hu, Lu Zongzhi and others to assist him, he was still tired enough.
Originally, he had just finished handling official business and was about to go to bed to rest, when he suddenly received an urgent summons from King Yong.
Cui Hao didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly got into the carriage and rushed to the palace.
At this time, Wei Shuo was standing in front of the window with his hands in his hands, looking at the boundless night, not knowing what he was thinking.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps behind them, and they turned around suddenly, just in time to see Cui Hao stepping into the hall.
didn't care about some red tape, Wei Shuo immediately handed the secret report given by Liu Yu to Cui Hao for a look.
The situation in southern Henan and Yandong is unstable, Cui Hao has long heard about it, and even paid attention to the two places in private.
But the fact that the two families dared to collude with Liu Yu to fight against Hexi still shocked him.
"Humph! It's a good dog. Cui Hao scolded in a low voice.
He looked at it carefully again, and said with a puzzled face: "Your Highness, what does Liu Yu mean by this?" ”
"If he doesn't want to offend Hexi, he simply doesn't join the family to rebel, why should he betray the family?"
"Didn't he know that this would cause him a lot of trouble?"
"Liu Yu must have a plan to do this, and if he dares to betray the family, he will naturally think of a way out, but you and I don't know what the details are for the time being."
"Then I wonder how His Highness plans to deal with it?"
Wei Shuo sighed and said, "Gu once wanted to calculate Liu Yu and the family together. ”
"But then I thought about it and found that it wasn't realistic."
"Liu Yu dared to confide in Gu He, thinking that he had already planned a way out, and he was never afraid of Gu taking a bite."
"And now that the Northern Expedition is imminent, Lone doesn't have so much time to fight wits and courage with him."
"Thinking about it, the best way to deal with it is to cooperate with Liu Yu to solve the problem of Yandong and Southern Henan Haoqiang as soon as possible."
"Well, Your Highness is very reasonable!" Cui Hao pinched his chin and said.
"It's just that in this way, it is estimated that it will be cheaper for Liu Yu."
"Ruochen's expectation is good, Liu Yu not only has a crush on the property of the Henan and Yandong families, but also has other calculations."
"But in terms of the current situation, the focus of Hexi is to pacify the Central Plains and eradicate the family in order to implement the equalization system."
"As for Liu Yu...... As long as he doesn't affect the overall situation, the minister thinks it doesn't matter if he gets some benefits. ”
"Even with Liu Yu's assistance, we can more easily control the movements of the family and it is more convenient to eradicate them."
"Well, Bo Yuan's words are very lonely!"
"As the saying goes: if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan! As long as the stability of the Central Plains can be maintained, Gu is willing to give up other interests. ”
"For the powerful family of Yandong and Southern Henan, I don't know how His Highness is going to start?"
"There is no need to worry about the strong in southern Henan, and the lonely is most worried about the Confucian family in Yandong Lu County."
"This descendant of Kong Sheng is not easy to deal with." Wei Shuo said worriedly,
During the Wei and Jin dynasties, although the Confucian family had not yet fully risen, since Dong Zhongshu deposed the Confucianism of the hundred schools, the status of the Confucian family has been higher day by day.
But to be honest, don't look at the Kong family as the descendants of Kong Sheng, it is difficult for Wei Shuo to have any good impression of him.
Since the Spring and Autumn Period, no dynasty in China has survived for more than 300 years.
As a result, the imperial throne was sat by different people, and many families rose and fell or annihilated or prospered with the rise and fall of the dynasty.
But only the Kong family has always been standing, and no matter who becomes the emperor, the benefits of the Kong family are indispensable.
Even the Confucian family is a veritable first-generation family in China, and the surname Kong is also the first noble surname in China.
Especially after the prosperity of Confucianism, the Confucian family followed the rising tide, which emperor dared not to give three points of thin noodles?
The old Liu family, the Sima family, the old Yang family, and the old Li family all rewarded the Kong family, especially when the old Zhao family was in power in the Song Dynasty, they were even more energetic to pat the Kong family.
not only named the grandson of Mr. Kong Qiu as the Holy Father of Yan, but also built a luxurious mansion for the Kong family.
It can be said that it is a series of efforts of the old Zhao family that have truly established the status of the Confucian family as the first noble mansion in the world.
It is said that the Confucian family originally belonged to the authentic sect of China, and Mr. Confucius himself once talked about the distinction of Huayi.
Besides, the subjects of the Chinese emperors in the past dynasties were really good to the Confucian family, and the Confucian family should always be unswervingly committed to China, right?
Definitely! The descendants of Confucius are too 'noble', and they are really "internationalist fighters"!
It has repeatedly 'taken into account' the overall situation, 'coned' with the general trend, cooperated with foreign Yi to enter the Central Plains, and made outstanding contributions to "national integration".
It is precisely because of this that Wei Shuo has always had a complaint about the Kong family.
If it was changed to the Song and Ming dynasties, it is estimated that he would not dare to directly punch the Kong family.
Fortunately, at the moment, the Confucian power is the weakest.
And the status of the Kong family is not so high, Wei Shuo dares to hold back his bad and wants to calculate the Kong family.
Of course, if the Kong family clearly supports the Juntian system, even if Wei Shuo is not happy in his heart, he will not move a single point.
But it is clear that as a vested interest group, the Confucian family has chosen to stand on the opposite side of Hexi.
Since the Kong family is so ignorant, Wei Shuo will naturally not be polite, and he has long wanted to use his sacrificial flag to stand up.
However, considering the huge influence of the Kong family, he had to think of a safe strategy.
Cui Hao glanced at Wei Shuo, and then stopped: "Your Highness, this matter is very important, and you must think about it in the long run. ”
"Well, don't worry, Lone won't act rashly."
Wei Shuo knew very well that if he wanted to bring down the Kong family, he must not only rely on force to suppress it, but must start from a comprehensive moral and legal point of view.
Only when he stands on the moral high ground will he do it.
……
"Lord, it's rare that you don't worry about being calculated by King Yong?"
"Hehe, Changdao, do you know what King Yong is most concerned about at the moment?"
"Rectify the Central Plains and implement the Juntian system?"
"That's right!"
"King Yong personally sat in Luoyang, just to pacify the Central Plains, so that the Central Plains could be brought under the rule of Hexi."
"Compared to this, Yu's careful thinking is not worth mentioning to King Yong at all."
"As long as we help King Yong deal with Yandong and Southern Henan, King Yong will turn a blind eye to our small actions."
"But for some reason, the minister always feels frightened in his heart."
"If the news leaks, I'm afraid that the lord will be notorious."
"Don't worry! I'm teaming up with King Yong, but I'm afraid I can't play with those families? ”
"The minister is not worried about the family, but he is afraid that King Yong will turn his face and deny people afterwards."
Liu Yu was stunned, and only said after a while: "Don't worry, I know it in my heart." ”
