Chapter 345: Jiang Zhong Talks
Boat in the middle of the river, tracing the river upstream.
There are generally only two roads into the river: north and east. The north road is from Hanzhong into the Sword Pavilion, this route was first made by the Warring States Period Qin State Sima wrong cut Shu to open the road, and Hanzhong is the barrier of Sichuan, into Sichuan first into the Han Dynasty, the history of the darkness Chen Cang, Zhuge Liang Northern Expedition is mostly from the Han to the Qinling Mountains to the north, from Hanzhong to the pass of Guanzhong roughly has the Meridian Valley, Qi Mountain, etc., different dynasties have different names, the Song Dynasty Baoji near is called Dasanguan.
And the east road mainly refers to the river upstream, can be advanced by land and water, roughly in the two Han Dynasty, when Gongsun Shu occupied the White Emperor City, this road was widely circulated, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei entered Sichuan, and the battle of Wu Shu Yiling can be regarded as marching along this route.
When Yang Fan woke up, he was already on the river boat. On the day of the bandits, the detachment brought about by the collapse of the law phase made him in a coma for several days. He slowly walked out of the compartment and found a young man with a sharpened chin playing with the black box. The saber on Yang Fan's waist was placed by his side.
"Tsk. This mechanism is really powerful, it's been three days, and I really want to cut it with a knife! Foxeye fiddled with the combination lock on the black box with some annoyance. On the top of the black box, there are three three-digit combination locks, that is, a billion possible permutations, if it is really cracked by the fox's eye, then this dog luck can go to buy lottery tickets.
"Hey, can you ask where this is?" Yang Fan sat on the steps, and didn't seem to care much about the black box in Fox Eye's hand. Even if he wants to have a relationship, he can't do it. The internal strength of his dantian is all said, and his hands and feet are weak and weak. Yang Fan finally understood how dangerous that night was. If it weren't for that mysterious black shadow appearing. It is estimated that he will die at the hands of that old man.
That fox eye is really good-looking. Yang Fan dared to say that he had seen many beauties who were not as standard as him, but it was a pity that he was a leader. Wasted such a face. He didn't raise his head and said, "Irikawa!" ”
"You saved me that night?"
"It's not!" The fox's eyes were about to burst into flames, and he naturally didn't know that this combination lock was a bottomless pit at all, as long as it wasn't against luck, it couldn't be unlocked at all. His slender fingers stopped, and he smiled sideways, "Still, now." You are my prey. So it's not an exaggeration to say that I saved you. ”
Yang Fan's face was calm and said, "Do you want to open it?" ”
"Don't tell me!" Fox Eyes directly interrupted Yang Fan's words with some arrogance, and said, "If you dare to say it, I don't mind throwing you into the river to feed the fish." ”
"Huh. Whatever you want. "Yang Fan originally planned to enter Shu, and it can be regarded as a ride. Now the first line of defense in Huguang, I believe that with the cooperation of Lu Xiangsheng and Chen Wangting, it can stop the rebel army's attack on Kuizhou. This second way. It is to let Qin Liangyu as a reinforcement. Once the first line of defense is broken, if there is a strong backup, it will undoubtedly be another guarantee to hold Sichuan and Shu.
Qin Liangyu is not an ordinary woman, she is a famous general in Shu. When Huang Taiji raided Jingshi, Qin Liangyu came out of King Shuqin, and was also greatly praised by Zhu Youzhen.
Fox Eye rolled her eyes, probably thinking that this prey was too calm. It wasn't very cold, and Yang Fan found that his clothes had been changed into a long shirt. It's nowhere near as warm as my trench coat.
"What's your name?"
"Me?" Still looking at the somewhat turbulent river, he turned his head.
"Is there anyone else here?"
"Oh. Yang Fan. ”
The fox face squatted down, patted Yang Fan's shoulder very unkindly with the scimitar in his hand, and said, "Ling Hebo Yang Fan? Although he had already guessed, it was still necessary to confirm.
"It used to be, but not anymore."
Foxface nodded. Then he said with a smile: "When you were in Beijing, you kept saying that Yue Fei, who criticized Qin Hui, wanted to calm the people's anger and raise Liaodong again, and now the world is still like this, it seems that you are not such a god as the legend." ”
Yang Fan leaned against the plank, smiled, and said, "At the beginning? It's just too young. I think I know everything, I can see everything. I can deceive the ignorant people, but I can't deceive the old foxes. ”
Fox Eyes was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "General Yue is so loyal and patriotic, and he died so unjustly, do you still want to follow suit?" ”
Yang Fan smiled slightly: "You said that Yue Fei is a loyal and patriotic minister, then let me ask you, what is the difference between this monarch and the country?" Can it be said that the king is the country, and the country is the king. ”
Fox Eyes nodded: "So to speak." Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers. ”
Yang Fan held his head with both hands and said leisurely: "Since Yue Fei is a loyal and patriotic minister, now the king wants him to die, and the country wants him to die, how can he be wronged?" If he is dissatisfied, isn't he disloyal and unpatriotic? Yue Fei himself shouted long live before he died, where is your turn to hold grievances? ”
Fox Eyes was speechless for a while, and after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Then you can tell me why General Yue ended up like this." ”
Yang Fan smiled bitterly: "Although this Yue Fei has a loyal and patriotic heart, he doesn't know how to be loyal and patriotic. ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"Who has the final say whether you are loyal and patriotic? Emperor. If the emperor says that you are loyal to the monarch and patriotic country, then you are loyal to the monarch and patriotic country, and if the emperor says that you deceive the monarch and betray the country, then you are deceiving the monarch and betraying the country. Therefore, if you want to be loyal to the monarch and love the country, you have to figure out what the emperor wants, think about what the emperor thinks, and be anxious about what the emperor is anxious about, at least to know that what the emperor said is true and those words are false. Nine times out of ten, what the emperor said at the small meetings of the congress and in the public are all lies, such as governing for the people, loving the people like sons, being upright and bright, speaking out, and so on, all of which are lies. ”
"I also know that some words were used by the emperor to fool the grass people, but is the sentence 'recovering the lost land and returning the two saints' that the Southern Song Dynasty emperor hangs on his lips every day is also a lie? Yue Fei did this wholeheartedly. ”
Yang Fan sighed: "This Yue Fei is stupid to take these two sentences as the truth. It is not easy for the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty to save such a little belongings and sit on the dragon chair, so he naturally cherishes it. Maintaining his power and ensuring that he can enjoy glory and wealth is the foundation of the emperor's reign and the core interests of the Great Song Kingdom. Reconquista? How easy is it to say? The Jin people are not the untouchables of the Great Song Kingdom, they are extremely fierce, the Southern Song Dynasty emperor is not willing to take risks, he is not forced by the Jin people to run out of tricks, he will never go to war with the Jin country, the ideal of the Southern Song Dynasty emperor is how to taoguang and maintain obscurity. Who loves peace the most in this world? The emperor of the Great Song Kingdom! For the sake of peace, even if it is a land reparation, it will not hesitate to pay compensation. ”
"You're not right. If that's what you think, then what do you mean, shouldn't this lost territory be recovered? ”
Yang Fan smiled slightly, and then said, "Let's talk about this welcome and return to the two saints first." One of these two saints is the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty and his father, and the other is the emperor and his brother, they were both emperors before, if they really got these two back, where would he go? Go back and be King Kang again? Song Gaozong will never be willing to give way, so the two saints who got back will become the emperor's heart disease, and they can't be killed, they have to eat and drink well, and they have to be guarded against like thieves, and they are always on guard against their restoration, can Song Gaozong still sleep peacefully for a day? So don't say it's to snatch back the two saints, even if he Dajin Kingdom now takes the initiative to send the two saints back, Song Gaozong will also find an excuse not to accept it. As for the recovering of lost land you mentioned, you have to see if you have the ability.
After listening to the storytelling, he naturally broke the Golden Vulture and captured Zhuxian Town. As for what happens later, let's leave it alone. ”
Yang Fan continued to laugh: "I heard some people say this, it's just that Yue Fei is a little stupid, and what's worse is that he is still a little stubborn. Song Gaozong asked him to withdraw his troops from Zhuxian Town, but his boss was reluctant, although it was not as evil as the twelve gold medals rumored by the outside world, but Yue Fei had already shown signs of disobedience. If he can't hear the truth or falsehood and is disobedient, how can Song Gaozong tolerate him, if he Yue Fei is allowed to go his own way, in case he really smashes Huanglong and returns the two saints, wouldn't he put Song Gaozong on the barbecue grill, so it is not surprising that Song Gaozong took precautions.
But we're all chewing our tongues behind our backs, this Master Yue, we still have to respect. But I can only respect it in my heart, and take it out to really learn from him, well, Yuan Chonghuan is an example. ”
"Who did you listen to?" There was a killing intent in the fox's eyes, and Yang Fan felt inexplicable, people who had been dead for hundreds of years were all dead, why, it was still unspeakable? Then he said: "The second uncle next door used to be three feet tall now." ”
"What else did he say bad things about General Yue?"
Yang Fan picked up the teacup, took a sip of water and said: "He said that this Yue Fei also made a big mistake, that is, he didn't figure out what his identity was in the Great Song Kingdom. Don't look at how Song Gaozong usually talks about our Great Song Kingdom, it seems that everyone in this Great Song Kingdom has a share, and everyone is the master of the country. In fact, there is only one master of this Great Song Kingdom, that is, the emperor, those grass people are slaves, and he Yue Fei is just a slave, and he is not a first-class slave. ”
Foxeye's eyes widened in shock, almost bursting into flames.
He also said that it would be okay if the grass people mistakenly regarded themselves as the masters of the country, and the emperor wished that they were like that, but this Yue Fei also mistakenly regarded himself as the master of the country, and even took the initiative to ask about the establishment of an heir. This heir is said to be small, it is the emperor's family affair, and it is said that it is a major matter of the country, how can a slave be asked? Throughout the ages, many wise ministers, even if they were asked about this matter by the emperor on the initiative of the emperor, asked the emperor to make his own decisions on the grounds that it was the emperor's family matter. This Yue Fei is a general with a heavy army, and taking the initiative to ask about the establishment of an heir will not arouse the emperor's suspicion, and after a long period of suspicion, he will inevitably move to kill, and Yue Fei will be in a catastrophe. ”
The fox face had already stood up, and the scimitar in his hand seemed to be whisking, Yang Fan raised his eyebrows, and hurriedly reminded: "I said that it was said by the second master next door." Lao Tzu respects General Yue very much. Hey, foxeye, why are you so excited? ”
"Lao Tzu's surname is Yue!" (To be continued......)
