On the same day, Liu Cong, the monarch of the Han Kingdom, received the recital of his son Liu Cang, which he had not finished reading, and his heart was already furious, he had a straight face, looked around at the important ministers, and with a wave of his hand, he threw the recital in his hand fiercely!

Liu Cong stood up from his seat and scolded: "Shaft! Shaft! What a bastard! ”

However, although Liu Cong was angry, a trace of imperceptible joy flashed in his eyes, after all, his son knew that he was fighting for military power, which was a good thing!

Although Liu Cong's preferred candidate was Liu Yao at the beginning, Liu Cang was his son after all, although he was not as brave and good at fighting as Liu Yao, but he was not an ordinary person, but Liu Cong could not directly appoint Liu Cang as the commander of the army, and he had to consider the political impact.

Now the Di people in Pingyang City are a little unstable, and Liu Yi, as the son of the Empress Dowager Shan of the Di people, is extremely important at this critical moment. Not only could Liu Cong not suppress Liu Yi so as not to cause a backlash from the Di people, but on the contrary, he had to think of ways to appease Liu Yi, so it was a little inappropriate for Liu Cong to be the commander of the army.

The ministers didn't know what was going on, but Liu Cong was suddenly so angry, which really frightened everyone, after all, this is an extraordinary period, I am afraid that any ignorant person will jump out and rebel again, if it is really like that, I don't know how many innocent clans and ministers will be implicated.

Thinking of this, everyone held their breath and lowered their heads, not daring to look at Liu Cong.

Liu Cong saw that after the ministers were angry, they lowered their heads one by one, and they looked timid, and he was very proud, he just wanted these people to be afraid of him, and only when he was afraid, he would not disagree.

However, there is one person who has no scruples and is not moved by Liu Cong's acting skills at all.

This person is Liu Yuan's widow, the veteran minister of the imperial court - Chen Yuanda, a Xiongnu nobleman!

Liu Cong saw this person. Suddenly no interest was lost, and he waved his hand and motioned for everyone to stand down.

Just as everyone was relieved to retire one by one, Liu Cong said again: "Changhong, you stay for a while, I have something to discuss with you!" ”

Chen Yuanda saw Liu Cong stop him. My heart moved slightly.

After everyone else left, only Liu Cong and Chen Yuanda were left in Liu Cong's palace!

Chen Yuanda didn't wait for Liu Cong to ask, so he took the initiative to speak: "Your Majesty, but the King of Jin intends to go to attack Liu Kun in Bingzhou?" ”

When Liu Cong heard Chen Yuanda's words, he was obviously stunned, he hadn't said it yet, how could this Chen Yuanda already know?

Liu Cong looked at Chen Yuanda strangely, he was really tired of Chen Yuanda's temper, but there was no way. It's just this person, not only valued by the former emperor Liu Yuan, but also respected by everyone in the entire Xiongnu and Han countries! Even when he saw Chen Yuanda, he was afraid of three points, because when he was a child, Chen Yuanda taught him knowledge, and he can be said to be an emperor!

Liu Cong looked at Chen Yuanda with interest, and asked straight to the point: "Changhong." How did you know that Shiguang's little cub wanted to attack Yangqu Liu Kun? ”

"Your Majesty, Liu Cang, the King of Jin, is not only a nobleman of Tianhuang. It is even more benevolent, all these years have been following His Majesty to learn to deal with government affairs, and now what is lacking is nothing more than a military merit, since the King of Zhongshan has no intention of being the commander of the army, why not become the king of Jin? ”

"Well, it's just my brother's side?" Liu Cong was still a little hesitant.

"Rest assured. Leave it to the old minister! ”

Liu Cong saw that Chen Yuanda had a big package, and he was also happy for a while, and laughed and said: "Hahaha, Changhong, in this case, let Liu Cang lead 30,000 troops to attack Yangqu City!" ”

"Yes. The minister is going to draw up the decree! ”

……

At the same time, in the Chang'an Suo Mansion, Taiwei Suo walked back and forth in the room with his brows locked, as if he was anxiously waiting for something.

I don't know how long it took, Zhu Shuang, who was sent to Qinzhou, finally appeared!

Suo Qi saw the long-awaited Zhu Shuang, and he didn't know how happy he was. He has great expectations for Zhu Shuang's trip to Qinzhou, whether he can continue to keep the power in his hands in the future, or whether he has the opportunity to take revenge with one arrow, it all depends on the effect of the trip to Qinzhou.

Suo Qi unprecedentedly welcomed Zhu Shuang, who had been running all the way, to his seat and personally poured him full of wine.

Zhu Shuang is indeed a little flattered, as Suo Qi's confidant general, he knows the temperament of his lord, and in the past, he could raise his eyes to look at them, as if it was a great gift, let alone pour tea and wine like now.

Zhu Shuang knew what Suo Qi really cared about, and hurriedly said: "Lord, Sima Bao, the king of Nanyang, has promised to form an alliance with you to fight against Liaodong!" ”

"Really?! That's great! That's great! There is salvation, and there is salvation at last! ”

"But ......."

"But what?!" Suo Qi asked eagerly, "Did they put forward any harsh conditions?" Zhu Shuang, you take a sip of wine first and rest for a while. ”

"Thank you for your concern, your subordinates are fine, this time the envoy to Qinzhou did bring back one of their conditions!"

"What conditions?!"

"Sima Bao said that after the matter is completed, His Majesty must appoint him as the heir to the throne!"

"What! Heir to the throne?! Does Sima Bao want to be a master? What a big ambition! No way! I will never say yes! ”

Listening to Sima Bao's request, Suo Qi was furious. How could he not see through Sima Bao's intentions, it was nothing more than to take the opportunity to control the power after dealing with Liaodong.

"Lord...... Do we have any other options?! ”

Hearing Zhu Shuang's words, Suo Qi was stunned, yes, does he have a choice? Does he have the ability to refuse?! Rejecting Sima Bao means that the two sides cannot form an alliance, how can a non-alignment deal with Liaodong?

Zhu Shuang looked at Suo Qi's pale face with anger, and sighed for a while, and hurriedly said to comfort: "Lord, the Liang family has just betrayed the alliance, and there is Liaodong eyeing it next to him, and even the hussar general Li Yun is also coveting power in the hands of the lord. If you have another bad relationship with Sima Bao, I'm afraid ...... I'm afraid I don't even have a chance to win, my lord! ”

"Hahahaha, Zhu Shuang, do you say that there are such powerful ministers as me in all dynasties? Isn't it just to get comfortable after so many years of fighting? Why do I feel more and more uncomfortable now? ”

"Lord, endure the calm for a while, take a step back and open the sky......"

"How to bear it? How to return? I have no way out, no way back! ”

"Lord, the temporary patience is just for a better time, although now it seems that we were knocked hard by Sima Bao, but they also want to help us deal with Liaodong!"

"Zhu Shuang, I know what you said, it is precisely because of this plan that I let you go to Shangtai to negotiate with the King of Nanyang, but I didn't expect this King of Nanyang to be so ambitious!"

"Lord, the matter has come to this point, when it is decided, if they can't get what they want, they may abandon us at any time and choose Wei Shuo, at that time, we are afraid that we will not even have the slightest chance to win......"

Under Zhu Shuang's persuasion, Suo Qi raised his head, his eyes had become red, he looked at the roof, and shouted: "Come on, take pen, ink, paper, and inkstone!" I will write a reply to the king of Nanyang and promise him all the conditions! ”

……

Since Liang stood on the side of Liaodong, Wei Shuo has become a frequent visitor to Liang's mansion. He often visited Liang Fen in the house, and the longer the contact time, the more Wei Shuo felt that Liang Fen was not simple. It is no wonder that history single-handedly contributed to the rise of the Liang family, and Liang Fen's scheming methods are the best choice.

"The general, like a catfish in the river, stirs up the situation in Guanzhong like stagnant water. Next, it depends on how the opponent is arranged, the general has the powerful Liaodong Army as the backing, and he is already invincible. ”

Wei Shuo looked at Liang Fen and said with a smile: "I am fortunate to have heard such a sentence: in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy and trickery are futile!" ”

Liang Fen's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she felt that this sentence was actually more reasonable. Looking at the young General Zhenbei, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, if this person had been born a few years earlier, he might be able to compete with Wei Wu and Jin Xuan back then.

Just as Wei Shuo, Liang Fen, Pei Wei and others were gossiping, they saw Liang Ce hurrying in from outside.

"Father, General Wei, someone outside asked to see him, saying that he had something important to report to General Wei!"

"Huh? Who is coming? ”

Liang Ce said embarrassedly: "The person who came didn't reveal his identity, only said that he wanted to see General Wei, but in my opinion, this person was definitely not sent by Liaodong." (To be continued.) )
