Chapter 8 The Separation of Church and State is the basis for the separation of church and state
When Yue Fei heard Lou Minzhong's words, his heart chuckled, but he saw Huang Wenbing sipping tea and smiled: "The minister doesn't say anything about the king, and Prime Minister Lou Cheng is wrong in saying this." Lou Minzhong didn't care, sighed and said: "Since the beginning www.biquge.info of the army, my Lou Minzhong has sold a lot of belongings, and the children of the whole clan have served in the army, but the hard fight has supported three years, and how many children in my clan have died in battle, but it is just in exchange for the current situation." My lord is greedy for the wealth and gentleness here, and refuses to let the city go, and Bangyuandong is not the land of Longxing, but he has been staying there, and he refuses to even bring the capital to Hangzhou, which is not the work of the Ming Lord. ”
Yue Fei listened, and said secretly in his heart: "For a long time here, what this Lou Min said was the truth, and that Fang La was just self-serving, and he was only willing to listen to some good words, because Brother Xiaoyi said some empty words when he saw him, but he had to reuse it." But I heard Huang Wenbing laugh and said: "Prime Minister Lou Cheng is this sincere? ”
Lou Minzhong looked at Huang Wenbing and said: "Huang Junshi, don't say code words in front of the Ming people, your middle strategy actually has a huge loophole, the land south of the Yangtze River has been in turmoil for three years, the population has fled, and all industries are deserted, even if Shibao can highlight the iron wall of the Song army, it is difficult to recruit troops in the outside world, without food and soldiers, they only rely on looting, which will inevitably increase the disgust of the people in Jiangnan. And Hangzhou and Bangyuandong are already short of troops.
If Shi Bao takes another elite military horse, the troops here will be even more stretched, and the final outcome may be that Shi Bao has not been able to do anything, and Hangzhou and Bangyuan Cave will be broken. ”
Huang Wenbing laughed when he heard this, and also looked at Lou Minzhong and said, "Since the prime minister sees the danger of this strategy, why do you still use it?" Lou Minzhong said lightly: "Talk about comfort!" Huang Wenbing put away his smile and said, "When you meet such a lord, you can only do this." After a pause, Huang Wenbing said again: "In that case, what does Prime Minister Lou think I should do?" ”
Lou Minzhong said: "Now you can't do anything, although the strategy proposed by Huang Junshi is illusory, it is also a way out. Today, there is the prince Fang Tianding, who is resolute and resolute, and can assist, I just want to protect him with the general Fang Jieke in front of the palace, go to Shandong Road, take refuge under the lord of the berth, and Xu Tu will restore the country. ”
Yue Fei heard this, and secretly thought in his heart: "It turns out that Lou Minzhong still wants to go to Shandong Road and then return to the country, but with the means of senior sister, if Fang La's remnant army goes to Shandong Road, I am afraid that within a year, I will be swallowed by my senior sister and there will be no scum left." ”
Huang Wenbing touched his nose and smiled lightly: "It turns out that Prime Minister Lou has this intention, since he can see the flaws in my strategy, it is impossible not to see the true intention of my strategy." ”
Lou Minzhong's eyes flashed slightly, and he sighed: "The situation is stronger than people, I naturally know that if I really go to the owner of the berth, although the noble lady is a daughter's family, but she is ambitious, where will I be allowed to wait for him to rule, and there are other plans?" It's just that good birds choose trees to perch, and good ministers choose to do things, I am naturally willing to serve my subordinates, but if others want to be willing to go to Shandong Road, they must have a reason, if there is no such reason, I am afraid that Fang Jie will not go. ”
Huang Wenbingqi said: "Who is this Fang Jie? Lou Minzhong said: "Fang Jie is my lord's nephew, the former general of Jinwu, in charge of the elite military horses in our army, known as the first fierce general of the Southern Army. If my expectations are correct, in the end, only the remnants of the army led by Fang Jie can fight their way out of the encirclement, and the rest of the army and horses are all resting. With only Fang Jie's approval, we can teach him to lead the military horses to escort a group of generals and officials out of the encirclement and go north to Shandong Road. ”
Huang Wenbing smiled slightly: "I see." After a pause, he looked at Lou Minzhong with a smile and said: "And Prime Minister Lou, if you want to go to Shandong Road, you must also have some things to advance, and this remnant army is the prime minister's promotion, but so?" ”
Lou Minzhong was slightly embarrassed, and sighed: "If you go to Shandong Road, you will see your means, if you can treat us well, I will naturally spare no effort to persuade the brothers to serve, if you can't tolerate me, you can only find another way." In short, I did this to leave some incense for my Jiangnan Righteous Army. ”
Huang Wenbing snorted, glanced at Yue Fei, and thought in his heart: "Behind the master's back, he can say so glossy, this person's ambition is not small, and he knows that if he pulls a group of people north, he has the capital to speak, which shows that this person is extraordinary." ”
Huang Wenbing pondered for a moment and said: "In this way, Prime Minister Lou has the intention of making a decision, but what is the intention of the prime minister to send more than ten handmaidens?" Lou Minzhong glanced at Yue Fei and said lightly: "This is the meaning of Zhou Quan's concubine, Yan Qing and Li Kui. ”
Yue Fei was shocked, and only heard Lou Minzhong continue: "I was also happy at first when such people came to take refuge with Master Ma, but Yan Qing and Li Kui came to vote, and they showed too much traces. Your upward movement is the counter-in-room plan,
If the time is a little shorter, I can't see it, but the three of them have been in my court for nearly three years, and if I can't see it, it means that there is no one in my southern dynasty. ”
Huang Wenbing snorted, and thought secretly: "This Lou Minzhong has really been suspicious for a long time, but it is true, he is a thoughtful person, and the three of the master's brother, Yan Qing, and Li Kui have been here for three years, and he will definitely see the flaws." ”
I only heard Lou Minzhong continue: "Previously, my lord also listened to the words of the right prime minister Zu Shiyuan, and was also a little suspicious of the three of them, such as the horse, Yan Qing, and Li Kui, and arranged secret agents to visit the left and right, so I sent more than ten handmaidens over as a warning, so I asked the two sides not to meet for the time being, so as not to be suspicious of the lord." Now that we are in our army, we have nothing to worry about meeting again. ”
When Yue Fei heard this, he got up and bowed and said, "Thank you Prime Minister for your thoughtfulness." Lou Minzhong waved his hand and sighed: "No matter who you are, but for the sake of your love with Princess Jinzhi, I should be considerate, Princess Jinzhi has been watched by me since she was a child, and I treat her like a daughter, I just hope that if the city is ruined in the future, you can protect her." Yue Fei's heart froze, and he hurriedly said: "This nature, how can a husband and wife abandon each other for three years?" ”
Huang Wenbing smiled secretly, and thought: "The lord is too loyal and faithful, no wonder he can't escape from the palm of the lord, he doesn't abandon this princess Jinzhi, after Fang La's defeat in the future, although the Song land is large, only Shandong Road can accommodate him." ”
Lou Minzhong asked again: "Tonight's discussion, I will tell the two of you about the future, it can be said that you are in your heart, what does Huang Junshi think?" Huang Wenbing knew that at this time, Lou Minzhong was going to make a statement on behalf of Shandong Road, and Huang Wenbing was not in a hurry at the moment, frowning and said: "Lou Cheng is willing to make a decision, Xiao Ke is naturally happy, but there is still one thing to ask." ”
Lou Minzhong said: "Huang Junshi, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it. Huang Wenbing said: "The remnants of the Jiangnan Righteous Army will go to Shandong Road in the future, who is the master?" Then there is the Jiangnan Righteous Army born from the Jiangnan Zoroastrianism, and after the unknown sect leader, who will succeed the sect leader? It must be known that although the Jiangnan Rebels were defeated, Zoroastrianism was deeply rooted in Jiangnan, and there were still hundreds of thousands of followers. ”
Lou Minzhong said: "The remnants of the rebel army are naturally based on His Royal Highness the Prince Fang Tianding, and I will respond in the middle, and the Zoroastrian Sect will also be handed over to His Royal Highness the Prince." Huang Wenbing shook his head when he heard this: "Since there is Princess Jinzhi here, although she is a daughter, she is also the bloodline of the Fang Sect Leader, I feel that the remnants of the Righteous Army can be determined by the crown prince Fang Tianding, and this Zoroastrian Sect Leader's position should be passed on to Princess Jin Zhi." ”
Speaking of this, Huang Wenbing paused, pointed at Yue Fei and said with a smile: "It's not a secret, this master is my master and brother, Prime Minister Lou should know the meaning." Lou Minzhong was slightly surprised, he didn't expect that Yue Fei was actually a famous junior disciple in the world, and sighed at the moment: "No wonder such a talented martial artist, it turned out to be a noble junior brother." ”
Lou Minzhong said so, but his heart was as bright as a mirror, if the remnants of the Jiangnan Righteous Army went north to Shandong Road, people would be willing to accept it, and the condition was that Zoroastria and politics should be separated, and the one who could not lead the soldiers and horses was the same person as the Zoroastrian leader, and Princess Jinzhi was the wife of Hu Sanniang's younger brother, and she would take over the position of the sect leader, and there was also the intention of the marriage of the two families. This also makes sense, the two families are not related to each other, why bother Shandong Road to protect the Jiangnan Righteous Army, unless there is an in-law relationship inside, this is not ordinary.
In this way, Princess Jin Zhi suddenly became more important, and Lou Minzhong pondered for a moment and said: "I naturally understand this, my Zoroastrian Sect also has a precedent of passing on the Holy Maiden to be the sect leader, it is naturally feasible, Huang Junshi can rest assured, I should discuss this matter with Fang Jie and others, and work together to promote this matter." ”
Huang Wenbing laughed and said: "That's good, I will reply to my lord tomorrow, Prime Minister Lou can rest assured, my lord also sincerely accepts you to go north." If Princess Jinzhi is the leader, it is also possible for the Zoroastrian Sect to preach on Shandong Road, in fact, I look at the Fire Teachings, and it is also to persuade people to be kind, eradicate the injustice in the world, and complement my White Lotus Sect, I believe that they can coexist and prosper. Lou Min smiled bitterly and said secretly: "If this is the case, the Zoroastrian Sect can only take refuge under the White Lotus Sect." ”
Speaking of this, Huang Wenbing said again: "I don't know who Prime Minister Lou wants to take north?" Can it be agreed? Lou Minzhong said: "Now there are still the right prime minister Zu Shiyuan, the national teacher Deng Yuanjue, the heavenly master Bao Daoyi, Shangshu Wang Yin and other central civil and military personnel, there are four generalissimos and others outside, and the rest of the generals are still under Pang Wanchun. It's just that most of the generals and officials are guarding Hangzhou, and I don't know how many people can escape if the city of Hangzhou is broken in the future. ”
Huang Wenbing said: "It's better for the prime minister to talk to Guishang later, and transfer his confidants to Bangyuan Cave for some reason, and when something can't be done in the end, it is better to break out together, otherwise they will be scattered outside and it will be difficult to rescue." ”
Lou Minzhong said: "This is natural, Huang Junshi mentioned it. Yue Fei remembered Li Kuilai, so he said: "Then Pang Wanchun's brother and sister are familiar with my senior sister, so I asked the prime minister to transfer the two of them out of Hangzhou." Lou Minzhong said: "This is easy, Pang Wanchun has good archery skills, and he can be the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and he will talk to His Royal Highness Fang Jie later." ”
It was all agreed at the moment, and the next day, Huang Wenbing arranged for the flying pigeon to pass the book and send the news back to Shandong Road, and then rushed to Qingxi Gangyuandong with Lou Minzhong to meet Fang Labumen. (To be continued.) )
