"My lord, this is a secret letter from the capital."

In the Yuesu military camp outside Luoyang, in Yue Su's sleeping tent, Jin Chan came to Yue Su's table with a letter and presented the letter to Yue Su. In the big tent now, there are only Yue Su and Jin Chan, Yue Su opened the envelope very calmly, took out the letter paper, and opened it to take a look.

The content of the letter is everything that has happened in the capital since Yue Su sent the excerpt.

"My lord, after the fold was delivered, there was a great response in Beijing, and the Donglin Party officials headed by Han Yi wrote to oppose it, Zhang Zhenggang and other officials of our department, and fought according to reason, but the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang were watched on the wall. The Queen Mother finally decided not to allow King Fu to move out of Luoyang, and wanted to take out a copy of the fief that Shenzong had rewarded King Fu to the adult, and asked the adult to return the land to King Fu according to the copy. If it has already been distributed to the homeless, let it be put aside for the time being, and if it is not allocated, do not share it again. The land that Shenzong rewarded to King Fu was a total of 20,000 tons, and the acres of land that were missing could be filled elsewhere and returned to King Fu. Also, the lower officials found out a piece of news here, that is, when the Queen Mother was difficult to decide, she summoned Liu Mingguo and Cao Huachun respectively to discuss the matter. It seems that the plan adopted by the Queen Mother is Liu Mingguo's advice, and Cao Huachun agrees with the adult's invitation. ”

A secret letter is not long, but it is concise and to the point, and everything in the capital has not escaped the ears and eyes. There is no signature below, except for Lord Yue, I am afraid that I don't know who this person is. What's more, the letter was delivered very quickly, and the letter had already arrived before the decree arrived.

After Yue Su read it, he pondered for a long time and said, "Jin Chan, you can also take a look at this letter." As he spoke, he handed the letter to the golden cicada.

Jin Cicada took it and looked at it, and after watching it, he honestly put it back on the table without saying a word.

"Jin Chan, the Queen Mother may not have asked me to play, it seems that she still doesn't believe me. King Fu stayed in Luoyang, the danger is very great, he and such a rogue, there is a grudge against killing his father, I am here, or there will be no waves, who knows what will happen when I leave. The most important thing is that King Fu has been wronged now, and in the future, he will inevitably be exacerbated by the people here, and their land will be occupied by King Fu by various means. After Yue Su finished speaking, he couldn't help but shake his head.

"The hateful Donglin Party, they are pampered in the capital for a day, they eat with fat brains, and they don't have the slightest worry about the country and the people, and the adults are here for the emperor's liver and brain, but they are doing all kinds of small actions in the back, lest the world will not be chaotic, it is really hateful!" Jin Chan couldn't help but scold.

He was born in cloth, and he couldn't see those who were powerful and blessed before, but now the soldiers are in trouble, and the people are hungry, which makes him even more indignant. Originally, he thought that with Lord Yue coming forward, he could quickly return the people to a peaceful day, but he didn't expect that just after the battle, this bullshit Fu King would come out and stretch out his hand to ask for the land. , when Lord Yue didn't come before, why didn't you ask Li Zicheng for it. Isn't this a typical mouse carrying a gun? The most infuriating thing is that those officials in the imperial court do not support Lord Yue, and the current situation, fools can see that King Liufu is here, and these homeless people are neighbors, and it is difficult to say what happens.

Yue Su didn't speak immediately, pondered for a moment, and said, "You said that if we march into Sichuan now, how sure are we that we will defeat Li Zicheng?" ”

"The lord personally led a heavy army to defeat Li Zicheng and recover the lost territory, it is better to explore the bag and take things." Jin Cicada replied decisively.

"yes, it all went so well." Yue Su said thoughtfully.

"With the prestige of adults, these young people do not want the wind to fall. Now that the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, there are many people, if Li Zicheng dares not to surrender, he will fight until he is served. Jin Cicada said with a grin. But he didn't hear what Yue Su said at all.

"Defeating Li Zicheng, now it seems that it is very easy, advancing by land and water, and taking down Sichuan is indeed like probing for things. But Jin Chan, have you ever thought about what color those officials of the Donglin Party led by Han Yi would be if I returned to Beijing this time. Before I set out on the expedition, they brought me a nanmu tree, and they wished I would die. In this attack on Sichuan, the last thing I want to win is probably them. Yue Su said lightly.

"It's true, these people don't have a good thing, when the adults are in the capital, they should all be killed, and they are thinking about calculating the adults in one day. However, we sent troops to attack Sichuan this time, and we have a chance to win, even if they don't want us to win, but the battle situation is not something they can control. In my opinion, it is better for the adults to send troops quickly, enter Sichuan on the same day, defeat Li Zicheng, and wait until they return to the Beijing Division, and then slowly clean them up, it will be too late. Jin Cicada said.

"Hurry up, in fact, I also think, if I hadn't met King Fu here, I would have already left. I thought I could let him leave, but I didn't expect the court to agree, but now it's good, once King Fu is instigated, there will be a lot of unpleasantness. And I gave him all the 20,000 dumps of land, so do the people still have land? Now there are homeless people everywhere, and Ben Shuai has already ordered, but where no one cultivates the land, whoever plants it now belongs to whom, and he can't let Ben Shuai break his word and get fat. Also, if you want to appease the displaced people, you must give them land, and if you don't have land, who will return to the court. For example, the soldiers and horses under our command now, after the battle, if they do not want to continue to serve as soldiers, will not they all be given land? Today, a blessed king is coming, Ben Shuai wants to snatch back the land from the people and return it to him, if other princes find him tomorrow, will Ben Shuai take back the land from the people and return it to him? Yue Su gritted his teeth and said.

"This ...... This is really embarrassing, Li Zicheng was really blind at the beginning, how did he let this bastard run away. If they were killed together, how could there be all this today! Speaking of this, Jin Cicada's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "My lord, I have come up with an idea, maybe I can resolve the trouble in front of me." ”

"Oh? What's the idea?. "Jin Chan rarely offers advice, I didn't expect that he could come up with any ideas today, of course Yue Su wanted to hear what kind of method it was.

"My lord, we might as well march now, and after leaving Henan, send someone to pretend to be a rogue, enter the city and kill this Fu King, won't the matter be in vain. At that time, the matter will not be blamed on the adult's head, and the adult will symbolically send someone to chase it, that is. Jin Cicada whispered.

If this ...... was replaced by the previous Yue Su, he would have to directly reprimand Jin Chan, but today, Yue Su did not get angry, but fell silent.

After a long time, Yue Su said: "After all, he is the brother of the first emperor and the uncle of His Majesty today, forget it." ”

"My lord, don't forget it, his subordinates know this kind of person best, he has always been an inch, today he asked the adult for land, and when the day comes, the adult destroys Li Zicheng, and he will ask the adult for the family wealth that Li Zicheng snatched. At that time, what did the adults give him! Jin Cicada said indignantly.

"Asking for family wealth......" Yue Su couldn't help laughing when he heard this, originally he wanted to say, 'Then he must have the courage to do this', but when the words came to his mouth, Yue Su's smile was gone.

He picked up the letter on the table, read it twice more carefully, and said, "Get a pen and paper." ”

"Yes, sir." Jin Chan didn't know what Yue Su meant, but he still immediately took the four treasures of the study.

The paper was spread on the table, Yue Su picked up the pen, and wrote a few lines with a brush. Then he asked Jin Chan to take an envelope, put the paper into the envelope, and seal the letter. At this time, Yue Su couldn't help but hesitate again.

Jin Chan wondered, not knowing what Yue Su meant. After waiting for a long time, I heard Yue Su say: "You personally send this letter to Beijing and hand it over to Zou Yi." Ask him to pass it on to the Queen Mother. ”

"Didn't you say that Gonggong Zou was very sick, why did the Lord give him the letter and ask him to pass it on to the Queen Mother, wouldn't it be better to give it directly to Gonggong Liu......" Jin Chan said in wonder.

"You don't understand, if this letter is given to Liu Mingguo, it will hurt him. Zou Yi is dedicated to public service, and it is most suitable for him. Also, after the letter is handed over to Grandpa Zou, you have to wait there for his reply, and as soon as there is news, immediately send someone to Tongzhou Wharf to send the news back to me. By the way, let's find out if there is any movement in the capital, and if so, send the news to Tongzhou Wharf and send it back by speedboat......" Speaking of this, Yue Su hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I will send five speedboats to you to deliver news back and forth." ”

"Yes, my subordinates obey."

"Alright, you can go now, work hard at night, and spend the night on the ship." Yue Su instructed.

"It's not hard, don't worry, no matter what happens, my subordinates will definitely send the news as soon as possible."

After Jin Chan finished speaking, he said goodbye to Yue Su, rushed to the Yellow River crossing, dispatched boats, and rushed to Beijing at the fastest speed. From here, you can take a boat and get to Beijing overnight.

Entering Beijing at dawn, Jin Chan went directly to Zou Yi's mansion to ask for a meeting.

Zou Gonggong was seriously ill, and he had already made it clear that he would refuse to see guests, but Jin Chan was Yue Su's person, so he sealed his waist card in an envelope and rewarded the concierge with silver, and asked him to hand over the things to Zou Yi, only saying that Zou Gonggong would see it and would definitely pass it on.

Seeing that Jin Cicada was so confident, the porter didn't dare to offend, and even confiscated the silver, so he hurriedly took the waist card to see Zou Yi. Zou Yi was sick in bed, and after seeing the waist card on Yue Su's mansion, he immediately passed in.

When the porter saw that the old man was like this, he guessed that the person at the door did have some background, so he hurriedly went out and invited the golden cicada to Zou Yi's room. When Jin Chan saw Zou Yi, he first bowed down to give a salute, and Zou Yi asked Jin Chan why he came here to see him? Jin Chan presented the letter, saying that this was a secret letter from Yue Su asking Gonggong Zou to forward it to the Queen Mother on his behalf.

Yue Su wanted to give a secret letter to the Queen Mother, and he had to let himself hand it over, and Zou Yi was confused all of a sudden. But don't look at the sick in bed, but he is cunning and cunning, and he quickly understood what Yue Su meant. This must be a major official matter, and it is inconvenient to hand over the fold, so I have to inform the Queen Mother secretly. Moreover, if this secret letter was handed over to other palace eunuchs and forwarded to the Queen Mother, Yue Su would not find anyone, but it would make the Queen Mother feel that there was collusion between that person and Yue Su. Let him Zou Yi forward, that's the best, he is about to die, and the queen mother will not think that she has colluded with Yue Su, and there is another point, he is the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, and Yue Su gave the secret letter to himself, which seems to be above board.

Okay, Yue Su, since you are dedicated to the public, even if our family is sick, we have to help you.
