Chapter 51: Chen Tao's Secret Confession
To be honest, Li Yu didn't actually plan to let the concept of an autonomous region come up so quickly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
One is that he thinks that the Han court may not agree, and the main families will come out to intervene. Under Lin Ming's reminder, he had already learned that Liu Hong was now even a problem with self-preservation, and if the family strongly opposed something, then he would not be able to implement it.
The second had a smooth journey, and after pretending to be a disciple of the Li family in Longxi to occupy the huge land, he was actually a little fluttering. Whether it's selfishness or lust. Hopefully, he thinks it's good to go on like this.
It's just that just three days ago, Chen Tao's request to see him had to implement the affairs of the autonomous region in advance.
At that time, he had just set up the ancestral hall, and he was about to go home to rest after a busy day, who knew that as soon as he returned home, Xie Huan said that Chen Tao asked to see him and asked if he wanted to see him.
Li Yu thought about it and felt that the two of them had been here for so long and really needed to talk to them. Even if you can't subdue them, you have to gain their favor. After all, the two of them were sent by Emperor Han to monitor his existence, and even Lin Ming couldn't let them have any accidents.
Whether or not there was a valid reason, the deaths of the two of them largely meant that Li Yu did not intend to obey Liu Hong.
Chen Tao was allowed to enter the living room of the back house under Xie Huan's arrangement. Originally, according to Li Yu's identity, he didn't have to continue to live in the back house of the school at all. It's just that the interior decoration of the dock fort that was originally scheduled to be relocated has not been completed, so it will take about a month to relocate.
In fact, in the heart, the dock fort also covers an area of hundreds of square meters, and it is also a part of the city wall, so living in the dock fort can't help but feel like living on the front line of the war. It's just that since Li Yu said that it was Wubao, it seemed unreasonable for him not to live in it.
Fortunately, there is a distance of more than ten meters between the main house and the city wall, and it is still in the middle of the mountains, so it is impossible for the other party to use the catapult or anything, even if there are stray arrows flying over, it will not cause any damage.
"The juniors take the liberty to disturb, and I hope that the senior uncle will not blame!" The two sides sat down, and Chen Tao took the lead in confessing. According to the identity of Momen, Yang Lang and Lin Ming are his uncles, Li Yu and Lin Ming are brothers, and he is naturally his nephew.
"Haha, Brother Chen Xian don't want to be like this, I have already said before that everyone has their own friends. Besides, now that everyone is doing things in the township government, it can be regarded as a colleague, so why be so polite? Li Yu intends to win over, so naturally he doesn't want too much estrangement.
"In this way, Chen is Meng Lang...... I just want to ask, when does Brother Li's so-called autonomous region plan to be established? Chen Tao bowed his hand and immediately went straight to the topic.
Li Yu couldn't help but hesitate when he heard this, it is said that he really has no intention of establishing an autonomous region now, at least not yet. It's just that he doesn't think that Chen Tao is just talking about it casually, and it will definitely have a deep meaning.
Is it what he meant, or does it mean to represent the Emperor of Han? It was because the expansion was too rapid during this time, and he thought that he would take advantage of the situation to form an autonomous region, that is, to test his ambitions; Or does he really think that the time has come to form an autonomous region?!
"Whose position does Brother Chen Xian's words represent?" Li Yu looked at Chen Tao.
"Brother Li doesn't have to doubt, the identity of a certain and Liu Xing, Brother Li should know, even if he is on guard, it is normal. It's just that Brother Li may not know, if he were our brother, he might be obedient to orders. It's just that the two of us have never received the favor of the Han Emperor, but we have lost everything, and if we want to say that we are not willing at all, Brother Li will believe it? Chen Tao asked solemnly.
It turned out that he and Liu Xing, although one was twenty years old, had hardly been to Ruoyang because he was a concubine, and was born in the ancestral house of the Chen family in Xiapi, and grew up there, in fact, he was cultivated as the existence of guarding the ancestral tomb, similar to the Zhuge family's Zhuge Festival.
After all, he is a concubine, and he has two brothers on his head, one is Chen Yu, who later became the Taishou of Wujun, and the other is Chen Cong, who later became the Taishou of Ruyin. Not to mention that Chen Qiu also has a nephew, that is Chen Qi, the father of Chen Deng, who later guarded Chen Deng.
As for him, Chen Tao, he is destined to stay behind the scenes. In fact, it can be regarded as a buried root, if the above ones are finished, at least he can continue the Xiapi Chen family.
It's just that Chen Tao is different from other concubines, he also hopes to be able to rely on his own ability to become a leader, instead of being a dog guarding the mound obediently. Not to mention, Chen Qiu was instigated by other gate lords to kill the eunuchs, but he put himself in when others were fine. also involved several sons, all of whom were sent to the land of Wu Yue.
Chen Yu and Chen Cong have the help of people from other families, and they can live a very nourishing life. Even after a few years, things fade away, and it will not be a problem to return to Jiangbei, and even go out again. But he Chen Tao is different, no one cares about a concubine, if he goes to Jiangdong this time without Momen care, and Liu Hong's secret order, then it is almost a lifeless situation.
He is not a fool, he knows who is behind them and is harming them, Chen Qiu is just an unlucky guy who was pushed out, who made him too upright, to put it bluntly, he is too pedantic, and he is not very sensitive to politics. The people behind the key to promote this matter include the Taiyuan Wang family, the Hongnong Yang family, and the three major gate valves of the Runan Yuan family, Chen Qiu can't die if he doesn't die!
went, and finally got a reputation for being a brave eunuch. I don't go, and I don't know how to be smeared by those gate valves. When the time comes, he will be pointed at by the people of the world when he dies, and even the reputation of the Chen family will be completely ruined.
For the sake of the family, maybe there is really a bit of the idea of helping the world to cut off the ministers, Chen Qiu can only have no hesitation. Liu He and Yang Qiu are similar, in fact, everyone is just a pitiful worm who can't resist.
In fact, Liu Xing's side is similar, he is Liu He's grandson, he was originally a collection of thousands of pets, and he was a young master in Luoyang, but he lost everything once, and he had to come to the wild land of Wuyue, and he didn't believe it if he was willing to say that Chen Tao was willing to do so.
Bloodline is important, but Liu Xing's proud character once deprived him of all his things, I am afraid that he will hold a grudge for the rest of his life. What kind of Han revival, what royal bloodline to pull him, it's impossible, whoever makes him a child!
Li Yu made up for this knowledge somewhat during this time, in fact, he mainly spent 5,000 prestige points to memorize the names and family backgrounds of all the famous generals and ministers of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and even the important things of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
To lay out the Eastern Han Dynasty, we must first have an understanding of the situation in the Eastern Han Dynasty, although most of them are inevitably distorted in the history books, but they can be used as a reference!
The situation of Yang Qiu, Chen Qiu and Liu He slipped around in their minds, and combined with what happened in the previous two years, they probably guessed something hidden behind the history books. Not to mention, there is no record of Chen Tao in history at all, in other words, what he said, I am afraid that there should be a lot of credibility.
This guy, after being exiled in history, either went into seclusion, or went back to be a dog guarding the tuckago, or joined the Taiping Sect and was defeated and died. Anyway, looking at the entire end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he has no record of being a leader.
"Alright, let's get back to business!" Li Yu took a sip of his teacup, "So, what if I don't plan to establish an autonomous region?" What if I establish an autonomous region? ”
"If you don't build it, you will be killed! Build, you can grow! Chen Tao said in a low voice.
"What do you mean by that?" Li Yu was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to think of something, but he still planned to hear what he had to say.
"The autonomous region was proposed by Brother Li, and His Majesty acquiesced. But why did Your Majesty acquiesce? It is nothing more than the hope that with the help of the autonomous region, a working army will be trained for him. If it is not available, then the meaning of the existence of the autonomous region is gone! Chen Tao didn't explain the matter clearly, but just mentioned Liu Hong's meaning.
In communicative studies, subordinates remind superiors, and it is best to say this vaguely but with a clear sense of reminder. Unless the superiors are really stupid enough to not do it, they will naturally follow these words. In this way, subordinates can just flatter a few words and gain the favor of their superiors.
On the contrary, a straightforward explanation in person is a bit of a slap in the face, or a feeling of contempt for the intelligence of superiors, so it is generally not advisable. Even if the superior humbly accepts advice, he will feel a little uncomfortable.
Chen Tao's words have made it very clear that the autonomous region is not something that Li Yu can build if he wants to or not, the key is to see what Liu Hong means.
"With my current identity as the Li clan in Longxi, can't I be in charge of the establishment of an autonomous region?" Li Yu still didn't want to attract the attention of the world's families so quickly.
"The Li clan in Longxi just said that there may be their clansmen here in Lingyang!" Chen Tao reminded that it may mean that there may be, but it may not be. Liu Hong will never let the Li family in Longxi admit Li Yu's identity, this may always be hanging there, Li Yu is obedient, then it may be, but if he is disobedient, it is definitely not.
A mountain folk pretending to be the Li clan in Longxi to deceive and deceive will directly bring a major blow to Li Yu's prestige, and even bring him ruin.
Well, Li Yu now understands that this is the pit that Liu Hong set up for him, but he has already jumped in!
Then the establishment of the autonomous region is clear, and the establishment of the autonomous region is equivalent to showing loyalty to Liu Hong, and the next thing is for him to further mix sand here; If it is not established, then his identity as the Li clan of Longxi will be deprived, and then he will directly become a rebellion of the mountain people, and the army will be killed directly!
How Zu Heng died was because his identity was a mountain man rather than a family. The family can compromise with Li Yu of the Li family in Longxi, but it will definitely not compromise with the ancestor of the mountain people, not to mention that even if Zu Heng moves out of the identity of the family, it is just a small family, and several families in Wu County are first-class families, and the family character completely crushes Zu Heng.
It was precisely because of this understanding that those mountain people who were gathered by Zu Heng did not dare to continue to follow Zu Heng, lest they be surrounded and suppressed by the imperial court. Zu Heng also knew this, so he let them leave and go to fight hard with the army of the imperial court by himself. Otherwise, in terms of mountain warfare, Zu Heng could completely destroy the encirclement and suppression army at that time, or even break through, but there will be more troops to launch a more ruthless attack in the future, and he will not be able to escape no matter what.
Li Yu's biggest talisman now is the identity of the Li family in Longxi, once he loses it, he will have to face the same encounter as Zu Heng. Unless, he has enough strength to be able to divide one side and even overthrow the big Han, but unfortunately he doesn't have it yet!
"Thank you Brother Chen Xian for your advice!" Li Yu thought clearly about the key and solemnly bowed.
"It only needs Brother Li to understand that although Chen and Liu Xing are in the status of a prison army, they are essentially friends of Brother Li! In fact, what Brother Li really needs to pay attention to is still the officials who may be sent! Chen Tao got up and saluted back, and left.
After Li Yu and Lin Ming briefly discussed, they began to arrange the formation of the autonomous region.
