"That's right! Since Lin Shucheng wants to see me, what if I meet him? I also want to see what Lin Shucheng wants to say! Situ Fei laughed and said lightly.

Wang Hewen said: "You must see him, but it can't be the lord who goes to see him, but he comes here to see the lord!" The initiative must be in our hands. This person is extraordinary, and if he can take it for his own use, it will be extremely beneficial to the lord's next actions. ”

"Let me go to Tianfu to see him?" Lin Shucheng got the reply, smiled coldly, and said, "It's okay, since he has made a decision, what if the governor of Pontus meets him?" ”

"My lord, is it too dangerous to go to Tianfu?" Lin Yao frowned and said.

"It doesn't matter, if they wanted to attack me, the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion would have changed its owner long ago. Situ Fei, are you ready to stand up? Could it be that there is a situation in Chengdu Prefecture? Something happened to the prince? Lin Shucheng was secretly anxious in his heart.

Tian Yu's mansion, Lin Shucheng arrived here with several personal guards, "When did this mansion of long history become the office of Liangzhou civil and military officials?" Could it be that the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion has changed places? Why are all the officials in charge of the military and political affairs in Liangzhou here? Seeing more than a dozen Liangzhou officials gathered here, Lin Shucheng couldn't help but sneer.

Changshi Tianyu smiled: "This is also a helpless thing, Liangzhou has a lot of affairs to deal with every day, and the metropolitan governor is not very familiar with the situation in Liangzhou, so he ......"

Lin Shucheng snorted coldly, didn't communicate with these people again, and asked directly: "What about the second son?" I'm already here, why isn't he there? ”

"Haha...... Lord Lin, I've arrived, please ......"

After everyone sat down, Lin Shucheng took the lead in speaking, "Second son, the governor of Bendu under house arrest, and the behind-the-scenes commander of the secret cooperation with Zhao Jun, should be you, the second son, right?" ”

Situ Fei smiled indifferently and said, "Where did Lord Lin say this?" I'm ......."

"Second son, in Liangzhou, except for you, no one can order the military officials of Liangzhou to ignore the existence of the governor of Bentu, in Liangzhou, except for you, no one can take charge of all the affairs of the Liangzhou army, except for the second son, no one dares to put the governor under house arrest."

"In addition, my people have seen the second son lead someone to trade with Zhao Jun!" After speaking, Lin Shucheng's sharp eyes stared straight at Situ Fei.

Situ Fei was uncomfortable by Lin Shucheng's gaze, and after a while, he said: "Lord Lin, I am just doing normal business with the merchants of Zhaodi, the army of Liangzhou lacks all kinds of materials, and the soldiers can't even match winter clothes, so ......"

"Haha...... Second son, do you take Pontus for a fool? The merchants of Zhao Land will trade with our Liangzhou at this moment? At such a time, can they pass through Zhao Jun's interception? Also, how the more than a dozen cities in the east and north were lost, the second prince should know better than the governor of Pontus, the governor of Pontus has already inspected almost, and the second prince does not need to hide it. ”

The smile on Situ Fei's face gradually faded, and he said coldly: "Since Lord Lin already knows, why do you need to ask again?" So, what does Lord Lin mean when he comes to ask me today? To verify your guesses? Or do you want to reprimand me? Now that the other party already knows, Situ Fei has no intention of talking nonsense with the other party anymore.

Hearing Situ Fei's admission, Lin Shucheng's heart was cold, "Second son, do you know what you're doing?" The Governor of Dadu, who was personally appointed by the prince under house arrest, privately captured the secret agents of the Tiqi Division and the personal guards under the command of the Governor of Pontus, and conspired with Zhao Jun, all of which are unforgivable crimes. ”

Situ Fei said coldly: "The unpardonable sin? Then, I would like to ask Lord Lin, if I do what Lord Lin tells me and give up the power of Liangzhou, is Lord Lin going to escort me to Chengdu Mansion? So, what will happen to me? Lord Lin should know very well that I would prefer to choose the current situation than this unforgivable sin. ”

Lin Shucheng's heart moved slightly, and his face remained unchanged and said, "Why did the second son say this? I came here to resist the Zhao army, not to target the second son. Besides, in this Liangzhou, who dares to escort the second son? ”

Situ Fei sneered: "Lord Lin, I told the truth, why do you have to hide it?" Lord Lin, my father asked you to come to Liangzhou, not just to defend against the Zhao army, right? No, it should be said that they did not come to defend against the Zhao army at all. ”

Situ Fei's face suddenly became gloomy, "If you really resist the Zhao army, you shouldn't let the garrisons of Chang'an and Hanzhong stay in place, or even set up defenses at the junction of Liangzhou and Hanzhong, but you should immediately drive into Liangzhou and engage the Zhao army." But now? Can my Liangzhou Army alone withstand the Zhao Army? Don't say it's you Lin Shucheng, even if you add up to ten, you can't withstand the attack of the Zhao army by relying on the Liangzhou army. ”

"Resist Zhao Jun? Ha ha...... Amusing! Did he really ask you to resist Zhao Jun? Let my Liangzhou Army fight alone? What did you do with tens of thousands of Liangzhou soldiers? You are not benevolent and righteous, and you should not blame the Liangzhou army for turning their backs on you. ”

Lin Shucheng gritted his teeth and said: "The reason why the southern army did not immediately enter Liangzhou is because of the Great War in the south, but because Liangzhou simply cannot provide the needs of tens of thousands of troops. Second son, you should know very well that Liangzhou can't even support the Liangzhou army now, how can it supply tens of thousands of reinforcements? ”

Wang Hewen on the side sneered: "According to what Lord Lin said, our Liangzhou is not a part of King Yong's command?" The Zhao army attacked Liangzhou, relying on my Liangzhou alone to supply the needs of the army? In the past, in order to resist the alliance of the eastern and southern princes, I don't know how many elite soldiers were sent to Liangzhou, and they were all buried on the battlefield. Now that Liangzhou is in danger, these tens of thousands of troops are close at hand, and they are indifferent. ”

"Lord Lin, if you want to say that the purpose of your coming to Liangzhou this time is to resist the Zhao army, then we have nothing to talk about. Without you, we would still be resisting the Zhao army. Although more than ten cities have been lost, the officers and men of our Liangzhou army will not be without food and clothing. ”

"In addition, the lower official also wants to ask Lord Lin, why did the prince send Lord Ling Xiaoling to Yongzhou in addition to sending you to Liangzhou? Lord Lin became the Governor of Liangzhou, and Lord Ling Xiaoling became the Deputy Governor of Yongzhou, and your responsibilities are unexpectedly similar, both of which are to resist the Zhao army. The result? The army has not been mobilized at all, and some of them are just you planting cronies everywhere and seizing power......"

Hearing Wang Hewen say this, Lin Shucheng's heart jumped, and he secretly thought in his heart that his mission this time was only known to these people, otherwise, the other party would not deliberately mention the affairs of Yongzhou.

After a slight sigh, Lin Shucheng sighed and said, "You know a lot, then, what do you think you can change by doing this now?" With your 40,000 or 50,000 Liangzhou troops alone? Don't forget, on your side, there are tens of thousands of elite guards. ”

Situ Fei said in a deep voice: "I forgot to tell you that according to the latest news we have received, my father is seriously ill and cannot handle political affairs. Yongjun's current military and political affairs are all presided over by my fifth brother. You should know best what this means, and he doesn't care about it yet. Besides, they don't know what's going on here. You must know that all our affairs here are personally stamped by Governor Lin Dadu. ”

"What? The prince is seriously ill? Lin Shucheng's face turned pale suddenly, and he immediately understood why Situ Fei dared to do this. Come to think of it, the current Chengdu Mansion and even the southern region, Situ Che is busy taking over the overall situation, and he will definitely have no time to deliberately investigate the situation in Liangzhou.

"Lord Lin, since you have a special mission. So, may I ask, has my father decided to pass on the throne to the fifth elder? Situ Fei stared at Lin Shucheng and asked in a deep voice.

Lin Shucheng looked at Situ Fei, took a deep breath, and said, "It's not for me to know who will inherit the throne. This matter is decided by your father, no matter who the prince lets inherit the power of the Yongjun, but it is definitely the most in line with the survival and development of the Yongjun. Second son, what you have done has had a great impact on the entire Yongjun. I hope ......"

"In this way, my father really chose the fifth! Ha ha...... If it's my eldest brother who is on top, I'm convinced, as for the fifth, why? Situ Fei smiled coldly, and his face suddenly became extremely gloomy.

"So, the second prince is ready to turn his back on the prince's decision? Did you know that there is absolutely no way to turn around? Although you are the brother of the fifth son, if you do this, no one will stop there. Second son, if you give up just like that, this matter will be treated as if Lin had never seen it. ”

Situ Fei laughed and said sharply: "Turn over? Lord Lin, you say, the fifth is in the upper position, can he let us brothers go? Even if I don't care, what about Situ Hao? He is the eldest son of the rightful son, can Situ Che let go of this potential threat? ”

"Also, now whether it is my eldest brother Situ Hao or this son, they are all governors of the same place, and they have been operating in various places for a long time, you say, Situ Che will not care? Take a look at your mission this time, before Situ Che started, my father was ready to strike first. In the future, Situ Che will become the king of Yong, and I don't know if my life can continue. Lord Lin, do you think what I said is reasonable? ”

Lin Shucheng was silent, he naturally understood what Situ Fei meant, and also thought that Situ Fei was worried. If Situ Hao succeeds to the throne, it will be justified, and the other few people don't have to worry that Situ Hao will unload the mill and kill the donkey. But now it is the youngest Situ Che who has succeeded him, and Situ Hao and Situ Fei occupy a lot of power in a state, even if Situ Hao and Situ Fei let go, Situ Che will not be at ease.

"Okay, the second son is in charge of this. However, in order to protect himself, the second son was self-reliant in the land of Liangzhou, did he ever think about the consequences? In addition, also cooperating with Zhao Jun, do you know what this Yongjun represents? Lin Shucheng no longer argued with Situ Fei about those power struggles, but he was extremely dissatisfied with Situ Che's approach, especially Situ Fei's conspiracy with Zhao Jun, which was even more stupid.

Situ Fei said coldly: "The consequences? What other consequences could there be? Glancing at Lin Shucheng coldly, Situ Fei's face showed a fierce look, "If you bow your head and be deprived of your power and return to Chengdu Mansion, whether you can survive or not, it is still two words." But now, although cooperating with Zhao Jun seems to you to be an unattainable act, I can at least save my life and even order one side. ”

"But......" Lin Shucheng suddenly became excited, "Second son, if you do this, you will push the Yongjun army to division step by step, to the abyss!" "Yongjun can have the current situation. Lin Shucheng has a lot of credit in it, and he naturally doesn't want the Yongjun army to split first, and then be divided and used by the Zhao army step by step.

"Haha...... Amusing! Situ Fei's face was hideous, "This son thinks that the words of the envoy of Zhao Jun are very good, after I die, I will call him a flood." What this son needs now is to save his life, save his life, you know? Our Situ Fei has been stationed in Liangzhou for several years, how much sweat did he pay for the Yong army to resist the alliance of princes and the regional Zhao army? But what about me? was placed in Liangzhou, just like a distribution, and now it has no use value, and you think I'm a stumbling block and want to kick me out? Don't even think about it, this son has decided, it doesn't matter who I work with, the important thing is that I can decide my own destiny. ”

Seeing Situ Fei roaring as if venting, Lin Shucheng was speechless for a moment. This kind of thing is inherently unfair to other people, after all, there is only one throne. Depending on the angle of the station, the consideration of the problem is naturally different.

"Second son, let's not talk about this matter for the time being, but what help can you provide for you if you conspire with Zhao Jun? The Zhao army was pressing step by step, and the land of Liangzhou could only be occupied by the Zhao army one city at a time. They won't give up attacking Liangzhou just because of your cooperation with them. ”

"You're right, this land of Liangzhou really can't be saved. However, even if I don't cooperate with Zhao Jun, will this Liangzhou be saved? Lin Shucheng, tell you the truth, can you keep Liangzhou? Situ Fei said disdainfully.

Lin Shucheng paused, his voice was much lower, but he still said directly: "Can't!" ”

Situ Fei sneered: "Very good, you didn't lie, this land of Liangzhou has long been abandoned by you, it is estimated that after the loss of the state, this land of Liangzhou is no longer in your eyes." The land of Liangzhou is just cannon fodder that you use to consume the strength of the Zhao army. ”

"Since the land of Liangzhou can't be saved, then why can't I exchange this thing that must be lost with Zhao Jun for what I need? Now you have also seen that the food and grass materials needed by tens of thousands of Liangzhou troops are available, and winter clothes are available, and we just throw these cities that need to be sent to death to the Zhao army. ”

Hearing Situ Fei say this, Lin Shucheng's heart was cold, "The second son, Liangzhou is lost, where do you want to gain a foothold?" This is your headquarters. ”

Situ Fei looked at Lin Shucheng and said with a smile: "Didn't you say that there are still tens of thousands of guards stationed in Chang'an and Hanzhong and Liangzhou." Don't you think that if we have these tens of thousands of guards, and then garrison them at dangerous passes, we will be able to gain a foothold here? ”

Really! Lin Shucheng sighed weakly, "Second son, that's the guard, even if you appear in those two places, you can't take over the garrisons in the two places." ”

Situ Fei said in a deep voice: "Of course I can't, but Lord Lin, you can!" I believe that when my father asked you to come to Liangzhou, he must have given you the right to mobilize the surrounding troops. In addition, the Chengdu Mansion is now busy with the affairs of my fifth brother's ascension, and he will definitely not care about some actions in the north. Besides, it is now the end of the year, and when the weather is cold, even Zhao Jun has stopped any transfer. ”

"Therefore, as long as we act quickly, control the garrisons in these two places before the Chengdu government has time to react, and garrison them at a dangerous pass, the overall situation will be set."

"What? I? Lin Shucheng suddenly sneered, "Second son, aren't you joking, you put me under house arrest here, and now you are conspiring with Zhao Jun to corrupt the foundation of the Yongjun Army and ignore the military orders of the prince, do you still want Lin to help you?" Wish for the moon! ”

Situ Fei's face suddenly turned cold, and said: "Lin Shucheng, this matter, you can't choose, you have to do it, you have to do it, you have to do it!" ”

"Situ Fei, just because you also want to order Lin? Once your affairs leak out, don't say it's you, even all the people in your house will be wiped out by the Nine Clans. I advise you to think about it before making a decision, how to say that you are also the second son of the prince, Lin promises you that as long as you give up your ideas, Lin can persuade the new His Royal Highness King Yong, and will not treat you badly. ”

"Haha......" Situ Fei smiled coldly, "Until now, you still want to persuade us?" We know exactly what we're doing. Don't say me, it's my big brother, do you think he will be indifferent? The north is about to break away from Stuartcher's control. ”

"In addition, all the affairs of Liangzhou are carried out under the orders of your Governor Lin, even if it is to trade with the Zhao army and let the Liangzhou army give up several cities, there is also a warrant from your Governor Lin. If you want to get rid of this, it's simply impossible. ”

"In addition, my people also took advantage of the fact that my father was seriously ill and the transfer of power in Chengdu Mansion was chaotic, and then the warrant of Governor Lin brought your family to Liangzhou, presumably, at this moment, they have arrived at the border of Liangzhou."

"You...... Despicable and shameless! Lin Shucheng's eyes immediately turned red.

"Despicable? Those who achieve great things are not informal! Situ Fei's face was hideous, "It's Situ Che who is in charge now, but not my father, you say, Situ Che's cronies will kill you when they learn about this?" You have gained enough trust from my father, and they don't want you to continue to be used too much under the trust of King Yong, otherwise, how will their power be preserved? ”

"By the way, we also issued an order to the garrison generals of Hanzhong and Chang'an as the governor of Liangzhou, that is, in your capacity, and asked them to prepare to go to Tianshui Mansion City to receive new military orders. When the time comes, the Metropolitan Governor of Liangzhou will personally go to explain the task. ”

"You...... Do you have a spy on my side? Hearing this, Lin Shucheng was shocked. The fact that he was in charge of the armies of Hanzhong and Chang'an, and even that he could mobilize the armies of the two places, was known only to himself and those who came with him, and it was impossible for outsiders to know. But now, Situ Fei is obviously very clear about the matter.
