Chapter 604: The World Pays Attention

p

In the second year of Long An, after the conflict in Nanyang, Hexi and Jiangdong were redivided and determined each other's spheres of influence.

In the southwest, Shu belongs to Hexi, and the new boundary between the two sides has been moved south from the Qinling line to the Jiaoning border.

In the middle, Hexi and Jiangdong are bordered by Hanshui and Huaihe (west of Xuzhou).

It was this division of power that Huan Xuan assigned Nanyang and the Central Plains to Hexi in exchange for Wei Shuo's support for his northern expedition to Nanyan.

This move enabled the Hexi forces to cross the Tongguan Pass and go east into the hinterland of the Central Plains.

Hexi's large-scale eastward expansion undoubtedly infringed on the interests of the Central Plains family, resulting in constant conflicts between the two sides.

In order to reconcile the contradictions between the two sides, the imperial court issued an order to take Wang Mi as the imperial history and go north to inspect the Central Plains.

However, Wang Mi's northward movement not only did not ease the relations between the two sides, but intensified the dispute of public opinion in the Central Plains.

At this time, King Yong suddenly announced in a high-profile manner that a big trial would be held, which suddenly made Luoyang the focus of attention in the world.

In addition to Wang Mi being invited to be in charge of supervision, the Central Plains family also began to gather in Luoyang from all directions.

……

After Xiahou Ling sent Wang Mi and his entourage away, he hurried to Lujun to see Kong Wei.

Kong Wei also cared about the intentions of Wang Mi and his party, especially what the attitude of Nanjun Gonghuan Xuan was.

In the study, Xiahou Ling reported in detail to Kong Wei the process of his meeting with Wang Mi, and finally said angrily: "Wang Mi only blindly persuaded the Central Plains family to back down, saying that he was afraid of delaying the Northern Expedition of the imperial court. ”

"But he refused to put pressure on King Yong, for fear that Taiwei himself did not want to offend King Yong."

"Taiwei is so partial to King Yong, aren't you worried that the family will be separated from him from now on?"

"Centrifugation?! Of course, Huan Xuan didn't care about the Central Plains family's centrifugation of him. ”

"Frightened~!" Kong Wei said with a mocking face: "After a hundred years of turmoil, no one in the world knows that the Central Plains family is yesterday's yellow flower. ”

"If not, how dare that King Yong not take us into account? How could Taiwei Huan Xuan ignore it? ”

"So what now? Directly start a rebellion? Xiahou Ling was unwilling.

Kong Wei glanced at Xiahou Ling, and just wanted to say something, but saw his son Kong Fu break into the study with a panicked face.

He couldn't help frowning, and scolded loudly: "What kind of system is panicking?!" ”

"Oh, my father is not good, the big thing is not good!"

Kong Fu didn't bother to salute his father, and said with a worried expression: "Father, the child has just received an urgent report, and King Yong will hold a big trial in Luoyang in a few days. ”

"What great trial?"

"I don't know how the child is specifically, but it is said that it is specifically for the Hanmen Shu clan to expose the crimes of the family."

"What?!"

Kong Wei was stunned, and he began to realize that the problem was serious.

If the Hanmen exposes the old background of the Central Plains family, it will have an extremely bad impact and discredit the Central Plains family.

You must know that reputation is the foundation of the success of the children of the family, and if even the foundation is shaken, the family is not far from defeat.

Kong Wei thought about it for a while, and immediately understood that this must be a powerful counterattack by King Yong to the public opinion attack of the Central Plains family.

But now in the face of King Yong's plan to draw salary, how should he and the Central Plains family deal with it?

"Brother Kong, what can I do?" Xiahou Ling said bitterly: "King Yong is too ruthless, and he poked directly at the weakness of the family." ”

"For more than 100 years, those Hanmen Shu people have not known how much resentment they have held back in their hearts, but no one has done justice for them."

"Now that King Yong has given a chance to vent, they will definitely not let us family members go."

"We have lost this battle of public opinion, and we have lost completely!"

Listening to Xiahou Ling's understanding, Kong Wei felt very shocked in his heart, and at the same time extremely sour, could it be that the family that has ruled the world for a hundred years is about to die?

"Xiahou family master, the old man plans to go to Luoyang."

Xiahou Ling frowned and said, "How can this work?" What if King Yong turns his face directly? ”

"You're too worried, King Yong doesn't dare and doesn't need to turn his face."

"Not surprisingly, when this big trial is over, there will be no room for relaxation between the Central Plains family and King Yong."

"The old man went to Luoyang just to see King Yong, to see what a heroic thing he was, and he forced the family into a corner."

"That's all?"

"That's all!"

……

"It's really stormy!"

Pengcheng Liu Yu was also paying attention to the changes in the situation in the Central Plains, and when the news of the big trial in Luoyang came, he suddenly understood why King Yong was not afraid of the Central Plains family.

At the same time, he also understood why King Yong would allow the family to wantonly slander and be indifferent.

As the saying goes: if God wants to make it die, it must first make it crazy! Nothing more.

"Lord, are we meddling?"

"Nope! Just wait and see what happens! ”

"Why? In this way, don't you watch the Central Plains family lose? ”

"Hehe, what's wrong with the defeat of the Central Plains family? In this way, it is conducive to the annexation of the remnants of the Central Plains family by the Northern Mansion. ”

When Liu Yu said this, those black eyes shone with a strange light.

What kind of covetousness for the wealth of the family, it's all a excuse! The annexation of the remnants of the Central Plains family is Liu Yu's real goal.

Liu Yu is obviously wiser than Liu Gaozhi, and his political power is much higher than that of the other party.

He knew very well that in Jiangdong, he could not realize his ambitions by relying on the military power of Beifu alone, and he had to have the help of his family.

But the Jiangdong family is fighting with Huan Xuan, and they don't look down on him Liu Yu at all.

Moreover, Huan Xuan monitored the Jiangdong family very strictly, and Liu Yu was not easy to show his strength.

It wasn't until he returned to Xuzhou again and learned that there were many contradictions between the Central Plains family and King Yong, that Liu Yu's eyes lit up and he set his sights on the Central Plains family.

At present, the relationship between the Central Plains family and King Yongwang is tense, and the war is about to break out!

If nothing else, the Central Plains family will definitely lose.

Liu Yu was not interested in helping the Central Plains family turn the tables, he just wanted to receive the remnants of the Central Plains family at the last moment.

"What is the use of receiving the remnants of the Central Plains family to Beifu?"

"It's naturally useless at the moment, but it's hard to say in the future."

"Hahaha......"

After laughing, Liu Yu swept his gaze over Wei Yongzhi and Xie Hui, and finally took a deep look at Xie Hui.

There are some words that should not be clarified, especially when Xie Hui, a child of the Jiangdong family, is still there.

……

Wang Mi is in a high position in Situ, and he is a special imperial historian of the imperial court, and he has a close relationship with King Yong, so he is not easy to slacken.

Wei Shuo ordered Shangshu's right servant to shoot Cui Hao and go out of the city to greet Situ Wang Mi and his party.

Wang Mi and his entourage had more than 100 people, all the way from Jiangdong, and they were already physically and mentally exhausted.

The carriage slowly stopped outside the Luoyang City Gate, and Wang Mi saw Cui Hao from afar, so he got out of the carriage with a smile.

Cui Hao walked forward quickly and said with a smile: "Lord Situ has worked hard all the way. ”

"Cui Fu's shooting style is still the same, congratulations!"

"His Royal Highness has been waiting in the palace for a long time, please follow Lord Situ into the city."

The two caught up for a while, and Cui Hao led Wang Mi into Luoyang City slowly.

Although Hexi has just entered Luoyang, Luoyang City has undergone great changes, and there are no signs of decline and decay.

Wang Mi walked on the street, looking at the new appearance of Luoyang, and couldn't help but feel like a world away.

Walking on the road, Cui Hao glanced at Wang Mi and asked with a smile: "I don't know how Situ feels about this journey?" ”

Wang Mi smiled faintly and said, "It is undeniable that the Central Plains is recovering day by day under the governance of King Yong. ”

"But the old man hopes that King Yong can end the current dispute as soon as possible, so as not to affect the future Northern Expedition of the Imperial Court!"

Cui Hao's heart jumped, and he asked tentatively: "It's rare that Situ persuaded the Central Plains family to make concessions?" ”

"Hahaha, the old man doesn't have that ability!"

In Ruyin City, after initial contact with the Central Plains family, Wang Mi knew that the Central Plains family hated King Yong.

There is no possibility of compromise between the two sides, and he has completely lost all hope of reconciling the dispute in the Central Plains.

And the reason why he was not in a hurry to return to Jiangdong, but accepted King Yong's invitation to go north, was not to persuade King Yong to make concessions, but to confirm whether King Yong had the ability to stabilize the situation in the Central Plains.

At that moment, Wang Mi no longer said more, but looked at the old capital of Luoyang with interest.

He found that although Luoyang City had not changed much, the people in the city were different from before.

Once upon a time, the people in the streets were ragged and dull-faced, and they were always in a hurry because of all kinds of worries.

Nowadays, most of the pedestrians are calm, with smiles on their faces and confident eyes.

Seeing this scene, Wang Mi sighed slightly in his heart, it seems that King Yong has successfully captured the hearts of the people of the Central Plains.

Thinking of the upcoming Luoyang trial, he felt more and more worried about the future of the Central Plains family.

This trial will undoubtedly completely intensify the contradictions between the Central Plains family and King Yong, and if it is not done well, it will cause a great turmoil.
