Yang Zilu coughed and broke the deadlock. opened his mouth and said: "Come on, Zuo Xiangguo is sick today, you take Zuo Xiangguo to the side hall to rest!" ”

"Lord, the minister......" Kan Pingtian opened his mouth to argue.

Yang Zilu didn't wait for Kan Pingtian to finish speaking, he had already waved his hand and said, "Go down and have a good rest!" ”

Kan Pingtian saw that Yang Zilu had made up his mind, so he had no choice but to respond, and under the leadership of the soldiers of the Yulin Army, he moved to the side hall.

All the doctors in the council hall deliberately did not talk about Kan Pingtian's abnormality, after nearly half an hour of discussion. Both Yang Zilu and Zhu Dafu agreed that the Han State should now strengthen its relationship with the Tian clan.

First, although the land of the Han Kingdom is now large, it is larger than the Wu State that was competing for hegemony in the world. But in the end, the Han Kingdom is a new country, so if the Han Kingdom needs a certain amount of support. Even if you don't get support, you need not to be hostile to the Han State, at least not to send troops to the Han State. Especially now that the relationship between Han and Chu has been tense to the extreme, a strong ally is urgently needed.

Second, after strengthening the connection with the Tian family, the Tian family naturally straightened his waist a lot after he had the support of the Han Kingdom. But would the newly established monarch of Qi be willing to see such a situation occur? No! Whoever is the king does not want to see such a situation happen. As Zigong said, although the Tian clan is powerful, the Qi country has been inherited for more than 560 years, and the heritage is placed here, and it is not a nouveau riche that can be easily replaced.

This will cause tension between the monarch and the ministers of Qi for a period of time. Under such circumstances, it is impossible for them to use troops externally. Even if it is a foreign use of troops, it will bully small countries such as Yanguo, Luguo, and Weiguo. Big countries like the Han State and the Jin State would not dare to provoke anything. In this way, the northern defense line of the Han State can be stabilized, and the Chu State can be concentrated on dealing with one country.

However, there is a problem with the selection of envoys, and the best envoy is naturally Zigong, but now Zigong is in charge of immigration. And he is Dr. Si Jin, and the matter of this envoy should be the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites.

But after careful consideration, Yang Zilu decided to let Zigong serve as the envoy. However, in order to prevent the doctors from confusing their powers and show their integrity, Yang Zilu announced the restructuring of the establishment and cabinet of Xiangguo on the spot. This is also because of Kan Pingtian's abnormality just now, and Kan Pingtian's relative power is restricted.

Yang Zilu's reform of Xiangguo and the cabinet was not an impulse that came up with a pat on the knee. In fact, Yang Zilu has long thought about this reform and is ready to launch it in the near future, but it was just launched in advance because of Kan Pingtian's affairs.

The Xiang State of the Han State changed from the left and right phase countries to the five-phase state system, one left phase country, one right phase country, and five subordinate ministers, Kan Pingtian is still the left phase country, and the literature is also the right phase country. Originally, the cabinet of Yu Yu, Zigong, Jugu, Ou Li, Ou Pijiang and others were all appointed separately.

Yu Xiao, Zigong, and Jugu were in charge and stayed in the cabinet smoothly and took charge of the second minister. The other deputy minister is served by Zilu. Others have been changed to political doctors, who only have the right to make suggestions and not to decide.

Zigong no longer held the position of Si Jin's doctor, and Zilu came to take over. Yu Yu also broke away from the authority of Da Sima, although Yu Yu was loyal, but Yang Zilu did not allow it, and one person could hold military power and power for a long time. The big Sima was replaced by the tongue Yong, the left Sima was replaced by the back bear, and the right Sima was replaced by the black bear.

Moreover, the black bear took over from the right Sima, which also led to a storm. Some people say that Yang Zilu is actually preparing to make Gongzi Che the crown prince! But fortunately, after several turmoil about the establishment of the prince, the doctors have learned to be obedient, and no one dares to be the first bird, and Shangjuan suggested that Yang Zilu should become the prince, so this rumor finally came to an end.

Of course, these are all future matters, and now Yang Zilu came to the side hall to see Kan Pingtian after ending this discussion.

Kan Pingtian looks a little decadent, and people feel different from the past.

Yang Zilu stretched out his hand to stop the chamberlain who was about to remind Kan Pingtian to come, slowly walked into the hall, and sat down cross-legged opposite Kan Pingtian. "What the hell is going on?"

"Ahh It's the Lord! Kan Pingtian waited for Yang Zilu to speak, and then he reacted and hurriedly wanted to salute.

Yang Zilu stretched out his hand to stop Kan Pingtian and said gently: "There is no need to be like this, I am not a monarch now." It's your friends! Do you understand? ”

In order to relax Kan Pingtian's mind, Yang Zilu claimed that he had also changed to me, not a widow.

Kan Pingtian hesitated for a moment, sighed and said, "Today the minister lost his temper!" Please punish the Lord! ”

"Hey!" Yang Zilu raised his eyebrows and said, "Lao Kan, now that I am your friend, do you talk to your friend like this?" ”

Kan Pingtian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Lao Kan's shout, I don't know when, Yang Zilu didn't use this title to call himself. Hearing this title, Kan Pingtian didn't know why, but only felt a faint warm current flowing. Kan Pingtian was silent for a while, nodded and said, "Actually, this matter has to start from my life experience!" ”

Yang Zilu didn't say anything, only nodded encouragingly, and looked at Kan Pingtian seriously, now he only needs to be a loyal listener.

Kan Pingtian seemed to forget that Yang Zilu was by his side, tilted his head and looked out the window. The deep eyes seemed to carry Kan Pingtian's soul through time and space. Kan Pingtian maintained this posture and indifferently narrated his life experience. "Originally, my name was not Kan Pingtian, my name was Kan Zhi. It is the concubine of Kan Kang, the suzerain of the Kan clan of Qi State, although I am a concubine, I have been smart and clever since I was a child, and I am very loved by my father. But the concubine is the concubine in the end, and it is impossible to inherit the family business in the environment of the Qi State at that time. So when I was nine years old, my father sent me to study with Yan Zi, the great sage of Qi State. ”

When Yang Zilu heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, Kan Pingtian was still Yan Zi's disciple! It's unbelievable!

Kan Pingtian did not stop because of Yang Zilu's shock, he was already completely immersed in the happy memories of the past. "The master didn't despise me because I was a concubine, but treated everyone equally. I stayed with my master for eleven years, and when I wore the crown, it was also when my father died, and the current Kan clan sect master, Kan Zhi, was my half-brother. But he didn't like me, probably because my father liked me more than he did. So I just kept filial piety for my father at home for three months, and then I returned to my master. ”

Speaking of this, Kan Pingtian paused, and his tone changed a little. "The master (Yanzi) recommended me to Miyi as the governor of the city. Miyi is close to the master's territory, so I can get the help of the master's forces, and probably because of this, my work in the Miyi is going well and I am also highly praised. After only three years as an official in Miyi, I was transferred back to the capital as a middle doctor. It was smooth sailing, I didn't know anything about it, I didn't know anything about the sinister nature of politics. ”

When Yang Zilu heard this, he looked at Kan Pingtian's eyes carefully, and he could see his strong hatred from Kan Pingtian's eyes.

Kan Pingtian said: "Because of the influence of my master, I am also very hostile to the Tian family. In addition, I was young and vigorous at the beginning, and I just wanted to seek the most political achievements. I have collected a batch of incriminating evidence, which is evidence about the Tian family's storage of private soldiers. However, the master disagreed, believing that the time was not yet ripe. At that time, I was very naïve, and when I saw that the master disagreed, I didn't pay attention to it. The next day, he personally sued the Tian family in the court, and was willing to use his family name as a guarantee! ”

When Kan Pingtian said this, he showed a wry smile, bitter as if a sticky cup of strong tea.

"I was naïve and didn't know that I was talking too much, and I was too underestimating Tian Chang. The monarch sent a doctor to investigate, but it turned out that there was no such thing. In the end, Tian Qi also fabricated the facts in front of the monarch, saying that I did this because of personal grudges. The king was furious and sent Tian Qi to arrest me. My wife is going to send it to Nülu (note. My wife is humiliated. He crashed into the wall and died. My servants, my sons, my family were all taken to prison. My son, who was only four years old, was stupefied when something like this happened to him. Kan Pingtian said this, and two lines of bitter tears slowly fell along the contours of his cheeks.

When Yang Zilu heard this, she couldn't help but sigh softly, what happened to Kan Pingtian was really worthy of the four words "family ruin".

Kan Pingtian continued: "But I don't know if it's luck or misfortune. Through my master's efforts, it is said that my eldest brother Kan Zhi also helped. In the end, I was able not to die, but it was better than death, Tian Qi sold me to a slave trader, and on that day, Kan Zhi also died, and there was only Kan Pingtian in the world. Finally I went from nation to country as a slave until I met you, the Lord! ”

When Yang Zilu heard this, he couldn't help but sympathize with Kan Pingtian's plight, sighed and said, "Old Kan, don't get involved in the affairs of Qi in the future." In fact, I understand your hatred, and I also understand your love for Qi Guo. Because Yan Zi is a person who loves the country of Qi very much, and you, as his disciple, how can you not love this country? But you also have to understand that between countries and countries, between forces and forces, there are only interests! ”

When Kan Pingtian heard this, he lowered his head, and his heart was like colic. He understands that what Yang Zilu said is not wrong, but what about understanding? Many things are governed not only by reason, but also by feelings.

Yang Zilu bit her lower lip and said resolutely: "But Lao Kan, I can tell you, you give me time!" Decade! Within ten years, I will definitely solve the Chu State and let you lead ten thousand horsemen to break the Tian clan! ”

"Really!" When Kan Pingtian heard this, Huo Ran raised his head and looked at Yang Zilu fixedly.

Yang Zilu nodded vigorously and said categorically: "Really! Lao Kan, you are the first person to follow me, do you think I will lie to you? ”

Kan Pingtian gritted his teeth, nodded vigorously and said, "Lord, in the future, my Kan Pingtian's surname will be yours!" Anyone who wants to kill the Lord and destroy the Han Kingdom! You have to step over my Kan Pingtian's corpse! ”

Yang Zilu patted Kan Pingtian's shoulder, nodded, and said solemnly: "The widow believes in you, but you don't have to pay attention to the affairs of the Qi Kingdom!" ”

Kan Pingtian opened his mouth when he heard this, but it seemed that because of some scruples, his face became gloomy and lowered his head.

Yang Zilu knew what Kan Pingtian was thinking, and Kan Pingtian thought that he still didn't trust him. Yang Zilu said half-comfortingly and half-explaining: "The widow knows that you want to show your loyalty to the widow, but the widow doesn't want that. Qi is your country in the end, and when you hurt Qi country, you also hurt you! Therefore, the affairs of Qi State, you will leave it to the widow and other doctors to discuss! ”

Kan Pingtian thought for a while, nodded, and agreed with Yang Zilu's words, and his mood was a lot lighter.

But Yang Zilu appeased Kan Pingtian, and Bai Gongsheng came to the door the next afternoon. As soon as I saw Yang Zilu, I vomited bitterness, but in fact, what I turned around the corner was the same meaning. It means that Yang Zilu is not trustworthy, and he clearly promised to help him support orthodoxy, but he interfered in the affairs of Qi State, and now he hopes that Yang Zilu will send troops to help him.

Yang Zilu immediately reassured Bai Gongsheng: "The king, it's not that the widow is ready to shift the focus to the Qi country. Instead, they sent troops to the Chu State, and the widows had to stabilize the Qi State, otherwise the Chu State would contact the Qi State and attack our Han State from the north and south, and the widows would not be able to bear it. King, do you say so? ”

Although Bai Gongsheng knew that he was wrong to blame Yang Zilu, he was still not very satisfied, and he has always been a relatively straightforward person. The words that I just said about turning corners have been rehearsed before I came in advance. Now he doesn't have such good eloquence, so he complained directly: "But your lord, you see that it's November now, and the time for the widow to come to the Han Kingdom is not short, but he has done nothing, and the people who support the widow in the Chu State will be discouraged!" ”

When Yang Zilu heard this, he touched his chin with some short beards, and muttered, "Well, what you said is not wrong, the king. But it's November now, and it's too late to send troops. But so be it! Your Majesty, you have been working hard in Shenyi for a period of time, and the walls of Shenyi are high. Moreover, the Huaishui River, which is located in a relatively gentle water, can also offset the advantage of the Chu State Boat Division going downstream. How about sending 3,000 men to assist the king in sending troops to capture Shenyi? The king took Shenyi as the capital again, and also set up a banner! ”

Bai Gongsheng thought about it, and it made sense. Besides, now that I am under the fence of the Han Kingdom, it doesn't feel good. Although Shenyi is small, it is also its own place, and it is better than sending people under the fence!

So Bai Gongsheng nodded happily and said, "Thank you for being such a widow!" ”

"Then how about the king go back and straighten out the soldiers first, and then set off in seven days?" Yang Zilu said.

"It doesn't have to be this way! Three days is enough! Bai Gongsheng said impatiently.

"Well, then three days!" Yang Zilu did not refuse, and happily sent troops three days later according to Bai Gongsheng's request.

Three days later, Yang Zilu sent Tongue Yong as the main general and Xia Huyao as the deputy general, leading 3,000 soldiers to help Bai Gongsheng capture Shenyi. Of course, Yang Zilu had already explained to them. This time, everything is based on the premise of preserving its own combat effectiveness.

However, even if the Han army did not contribute to some work, Bai Gongsheng's popularity in Shenyi was there, and when Bai Gongsheng's army came to Shenyi. The people of Shenyi immediately took up arms to help Bai Gongsheng, and took Shenyi with internal and external attacks.
