Chapter 320: The Great Secret (2)
"Hehe, virtuous son-in-law," Qiao Yuan smiled, "even if I don't want to go to Jianye at this time, it won't be possible." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Huh?" Seeing Qiao Yuan's wry smile, Xu Qi immediately asked, "What's the matter, father-in-law?" ”
"Hey, Li Shimin once sent someone to find here."
“!” Xu Jue was shocked, seeing that Qiao Yuan was serious, and he was not a prankster, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, even in this cold day, beads of sweat oozed slightly on his forehead, "This traitor didn't do anything to you, right?" ”
"No, it was a worker in the brewery who was thorough, and Li Shimin knew where I was, but he didn't say anything, just took all those brewers away." Qiao said from afar.
"Really?" Xu Jue was suspicious and couldn't figure out Li Shimin's intentions.
If he wants to rebel, and the father-in-law of the Son of Heaven is under his nose, he will definitely control this father-in-law as a bargaining chip for future negotiations, but Li Shimin turns a blind eye, is there any deeper conspiracy......
Thinking of this, Xu Qi looked at Zhou Yu, "Gongjin, what do you think?" ”
"Your Majesty, the reason why Li Shimin did this is probably just because of his conscience, and he doesn't want to add shame to the infamy of beasts, and besides that, Weichen can't think of any other reason." Zhou Yu arched his hand.
"Hmm......" Xu Jue nodded, no longer thinking about it, "Without further ado, it's better to leave this place as soon as possible, if it's not too far away, I have to kill him Li Shimin!" ”
"......" Qiao Yuan looked at Xu Jue, he hadn't seen him for a long time, he had grown a lot compared to that day, and he couldn't help but smile slightly.
……
Jingzhou Mansion.
"Report!" Liu Biao was playing chess with a Confucian man when suddenly a soldier came to report.
"Taishou! His Majesty sent an angel Liu Ye to ask for a meeting! ”
"Oh? Liu Ziyang? Liu Biao put down the sunspot in his hand and got up slowly, his face full of wisdom, "This Liu Ye and I are both relatives of the Han family, Xu Jue sent him here this time, there must be something important to discuss." ”
"Lord Taishou, you might as well invite him in." The man who played against Liu Biao.
"Well, just listen to what the gentleman says." Liu Biao nodded, "Pass in!" ”
"This ......" The soldier who came to report looked confused, hesitant, and hesitated.
"I'll let you pass him in! Didn't hear? Liu Biao was slightly angry and raised his voice.
“…… Yes, sir! The man was helpless and turned to go down.
"If Taishou acts like this, won't it ruin the courtesy of the monarch and the minister?" The man playing against him laughed.
"Xuan Ce, although I Liu Biao is not talented, I still recognize it in terms of right and wrong, my surname is Liu, although he Xu Qi is now the Son of Heaven, but he is a person with a foreign surname, he was a general but became the Son of Heaven, this is ......"
Seeing that Liu Biao wanted to speak and stopped, knowing that it was inconvenient to speak outright, Wang Xuance nodded, "But Xu Jue governs Yangzhou in an orderly manner, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and Xu Jue can be called a genius and martial arts, and he is famous and praised, he is not a traitor, and his succession has the edict of the Son of Heaven, which is a matter of course, why should he ...... it."
"But my Liu family's country has fallen into the hands of others like this, how can I be willing!" Liu Biao suddenly roared loudly, it seemed that this emotion could not be controlled.
"What a sentence 'how can you be willing'!" Suddenly, a person outside the door shouted loudly, Liu Biao looked at it, and saw that this person had clear eyebrows, about thirty years old, wearing Jianye's official uniform, and knew that it was Liu Ye.
"Hehe, what are the angels doing here?" After all, Liu Biao is a prince, and the city government is naturally not shallow, he was still complaining a second ago, but now he is smiling all over his face, he is simply an old fox in human skin.
"Humph! There was something going on, but looking at Liu Taishou's attitude, let's not talk about it! Liu Ye snorted coldly, waved his robe, and made a gesture to leave.
"Angel stays!" Liu Biao suddenly shouted, "The angel came from afar, and left without saying a word, if it was known by outsiders, wouldn't it be said that I Liu Biao didn't understand etiquette?" ”
"......" Liu Ye turned around slowly, and saw that the generals on both sides of the state capital looked at him with very wary eyes, and many people even pressed their hands on their swords, so they spoke, "Since this is the case, I will speak bluntly." ”
"Angel, please speak!" Liu Biaodao.
"By the order of the Son of Heaven, I am here to ......"
"Report!"
Liu Ye was halfway through his words, and suddenly rushed in from outside, "Lord Taishou, Chaisang Li Shimin sent an envoy to ask to see!" ”
“!” Liu Ye was shocked, his face changed, he quietly looked at Liu Biao, and saw that he was not shocked, but only frowned slightly.
"Bring it in!"
"Yes!"
Not long after, someone brought it in, and when he saw Liu Biao, he immediately gave it up, "Lord Taishou, this is a letter from the lord of my family, please take a look at Lord Taishou!" With that, he handed it forward.
"Well......" Liu Biao took it into his hand and looked at it, his complexion changed several times, and then looked at Liu Ye, seeing that his expression was very subtle, he immediately understood a little, and suddenly laughed, "That's it, the two messengers came from afar, they must be tired, come here, you can entertain the two, don't slack off!" ”
"Yes!" Several soldiers stepped forward and led the two to retreat, while Liu Biao and Wang Xuance walked into the back hall together, and after a while, Yu Yunwen also entered.
"Two gentlemen, look at this letter." Liu Biao's expression was grim, and he handed the letter from the messenger to the two of them.
"Hmm......" The two looked at each other with an epiphany, "Presumably Liu Ye is also here for this matter." ”
"Then what should I do according to the two of them?" Liu Biao frowned.
"Taishou, Li Shimin is a thief and a thief, with ill intentions, His Majesty treats him well, but he openly rebels, stands on his own feet in the city, and repeatedly shirks his responsibilities in the letter, such a hypocritical person, how can Taishou be with him and be an enemy of His Majesty?" Wang Xuance arched his hand.
"Well, sir has a point." Liu Biao frowned.
"Xuan Ce's words are wrong!" Suddenly, Yu Yunwen on the side arched his hand, "If you want to talk about hypocrisy, I'm afraid that Xu Qi's achievements here are not as good as Li Shimin." ”
"What does Binfu mean by that?" Wang Xuance frowned.
"Xuan Ce thinks, Xu Jue is just a general, he has no power and no power in the court, although he saved the first emperor, but the first emperor is not without imperial relatives, why do you pass the throne to Xu Jue and not to others?" Speaking of this, he also looked at Liu Biao.
"But Xu Jue announced the edict of the first emperor to the world, even if some people think it is strange, they can't find the slightest abnormality, which shows the truth of the holy decree and your intentions!" Wang Xuance seemed to be a little excited, and his expression and tone were quite excited.
"Even so, how can you know that Xu Jue is not forcing the palace?" Yu Yunwen frowned, very provocative.
"Even if it is to force the palace, what Xu Jue has done over the years is also seen for you, and you are not afraid to say a word of killing your head, at least Xu Jue is clear under his rule, the people are rich, and he has won countless victories compared to the first emperor!" Wang Xuance said sharply.
"Humph! What Mr. said like this, could it be that he is dissatisfied with the Liu family's world? Yu Yunwen said sharply, Wang Xuance was excited, and he couldn't calm down.
"What the gentleman said, could it be that he has the intention of rebelling against today?" Wang Xuance was-for-tat and not to be outdone.
"You!" Yu Yunwen was furious, and was about to have a seizure, when suddenly Liu Biao shouted angrily, "Shut up for me!" ”
After saying that, he glared at the two of them angrily, "You two are the best on weekdays, and you respect each other like guests, why do you look like enemies you haven't seen for many years today, so red-eyed?" ”
"......" The two glanced at each other, without the slightest guilt, and with that unwavering look, it seemed that the two were destined to have no common topic in this life.
The positions are different, even father and son may meet each other, let alone colleagues.
"Wang Xuance, according to your wishes, I should be close to Xu Jue; Yu Yunwen, according to your intentions, I should be close to Li Shimin, yes or no? Liu Biao said.
"Taishou, Li Shimin has rebelled, and he is destined to break with Xu Jue; And Liu Ye must have come here to win over Taishou, maybe to deal with Li Shimin together, or to attack by taking advantage of the Tao, or the worst may be to order Taishou to attack Li Shimin in the name of the Son of Heaven. Yu Yunwen analyzed.
"What do you mean by that?" Liu Biao wondered.
"Taishou, you have also seen Li Shimin's letter, since he dared to show his confidence in rebellion in the letter, and the courage not to be afraid of Xu Qi's crusade, I believe that this is not self-confidence for no reason, I'm afraid he really has some foolproof plan." Yu Yunwen continued.
"But his Li Shimin's biggest ally now is the Jiangdong Lu family, although the Lu family is powerful, how can they be able to defeat Xu Qi? Even our army can exterminate it without much effort, but what other chance can he have? Liu Biao said.
"Taishou, if we help Li Shimin, our army will be equivalent to breaking with Your Majesty, in this way, our army will be infamous as a traitor, and have to be with Li Shimin, this is Li Shimin's treacherous plan, think twice!" Wang Xuance saw that Liu Biao's words didn't seem to want to help Li Shimin, so he took the opportunity to make a big move and poked straight into Liu Biao's heart.
"Well, Wang Xuance's words are true, even if I stand on Li Shimin's side, I won't get any benefits, and I will anger Xu Jue, and I may invite death." Liu Biao muttered, but judging from his still frowning brows, he was still weighing the words of the two and had not made up his mind.
"Lord Taishou's name!" Wang Xuance saw that things had taken a turn for the better, and he was overjoyed and immediately gave up.
"Wait!" Suddenly, Yu Yunwen shouted, Liu Biao and Wang Xuance turned their heads to look, and saw that there was another piece of paper in his hand, so they stepped forward to take a look, and immediately frowned, their faces were unprecedentedly serious.
"I have 200,000 soldiers in Yongzhou who can fight Xu Qi? If Brother Jingsheng can resist Xu Jue with me, the day the matter is completed, he will be the Son of Heaven! After Liu Biao finished reading word by word, his expression was already so surprised that he couldn't be more surprised, while Yu Yunwen and Wang Xuance all looked confused, not knowing whether it was true or not.
"Where is this letter?" Liu Biao asked.
"Taishou, it was on the back of this letter, close to it, that I found a gap underneath, and I was suspicious, so I tore it off and looked at it, and I found this piece of paper."
"Taishou, this must also be Li Shimin's conspiracy!" Wang Xuance immediately shouted.
"Shut up! I've got my own plans! Liu Biao narrowed his eyes, and a glimmer of light flashed in his deep eyes.
