509. Gifts are still exchanged
Liu Xie's death, but the amazing thunder and rain in Chang'an City can be said to be unexpected, and it can be regarded as an expected result, Yuan Shang's strong hand is enough to make the voices of those who resist incomparably smaller.
The newly enthroned emperor is Liu Wen, who is the second son of Liu Chang, the king of Huainan Li in the Western Han Dynasty, after Liu Bo, the king of Jibeizhen, his father is the third son of Liu Tao, which has been passed down for several generations.
Liu Tao died in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, was falsely accused of having an affair with Zhang Jiao, and only found out the reason after his death, and was posthumously named the Marquis of Zhongling, and his eldest son inherited his title, while Liu Wen's father had no choice but to put down his clan identity and go into business in order to support his family.
And these are not important, what really makes Liu Wen's chicken dog ascend to heaven is due to his age, this is a child who is only two years old, and more importantly, Liu Wen's own mother is the maid next to Mrs. Frustration, this relationship is indeed a bit complicated, but there is one point, that is, Liu Wen is much better to control than Liu Xie, and he is fortunate that Frustration remembered him for the first time, and intentionally pushed him to that position.
Liu Wen is destined to sit in that position for a short time, but, for now, he is lucky, how many people can't ask for the honor, he is a child who can't even speak clearly, but he is fortunate to wear a dragon robe.
When the ministers shouted long live, the newly baked little emperor was snotty, and all of Yuan Shang's performances looked very cautious, even more respectful than Liu Xie's life, and no one could find fault with etiquette.
At this time, the turmoil will naturally not disappear so easily, it will gradually brew in the hearts of countless people, and as the core area of Yuan Shang's power. Chang'an has already acted as an agent for the two cities of Taiyuan and Linrong in the state, which have an important position in Yuan Shang's mind. In light of this. No matter how big the turmoil is, in front of the strong Yuan Shang, it will not be able to roll up the stormy waves after all.
Putting Liu Wen on the throne, it is not that no one objected, after all, Liu Wen's identity is too ordinary, even if he is a relative of Liu Han, his bloodline is extremely weak, not to mention. King Huainan Li is a vassal king who plots to rebel, and from this point of view, after Liu Wennai is an anti-king, it is common sense that the stain on his identity will be opposed by the Han clan relatives of other branches.
Helplessly, Yuan Shang ignored them at all, and now that Liu Xie's bones are not cold, Yuan Shang suppressed everything when he was not noisy, and now Chang'an is Yuan Shang's base, which can be described as covering the sky with one hand. The group of Han clan relatives who boasted of their identities would not be Yuan Shang's opponents even if they were all tied together. They had nothing else to do but swallow their anger.
Liu Xie's death, the entire government and the opposition in addition to Yuan Shang's descendant officials, the rest of the people talked in private, that is, the restaurant and tea shop outside the palace gate also talked in groups in private, the strange thing is that Yuan Shang not only did not interfere with the city gate division, but also turned a deaf ear to this phenomenon, the information delivered to him by the daily intelligence department at least had a general description of the situation in Chang'an City, and a certain association to discuss the government and politics, and which family's clan disciples criticized Yuan Shang, all of this, Yuan Shang never paid attention to it.
His mind had long been placed outside of Chang'an, and where the origin of this scene came from, Yuan Shang's eyes were on it.
Like a hungry hound, the Intelligence Department followed the slightest smell to Jiaozhou, which was the weakest place for the Intelligence Department, but it was also the sphere of influence of the End of the World.
"The world has underestimated Shixie, the situation in Jiaozhou is no worse than that of Bingzhou, in recent years, the princes of the world have broken their heads and bloodshed, and Jiaozhou has always been quite stable."
Lu Su looked at the huge territory of Jiaozhou, and then said in a deep voice: "Shixie is dormant in Jiaozhou, although there is no foundation for achieving great causes, but it is enough to affect the situation of confrontation between the north and the south, especially when the foundation of the Tianya Pavilion is also in Jiaozhou, for the lord, there is one more enemy. ”
Yuan Shang stood on the edge of the map with his hands tied, his eyes flashing, and he said indifferently: "Go on." ”
Lu Su, who was quite generous-looking, glanced at Yuan Shang, and said in a slightly strange tone: "What the subordinates still don't understand is why the Tianya Pavilion will target the lord everywhere? You must know that if they want to pass on such a profound power, let alone offend the lord, I am afraid it is not too much to lick the old face to slap the lord..."
Yuan Shang turned around, turned his back to Lu Su, was silent for a moment, and spat out two words in his mouth: "Sword Palace." ”
When Lu Su heard this, he suddenly realized that he was the new one who voted for Yuan Shang, so he naturally didn't understand the grievances between Yuan Shang and Tianyahai Pavilion in the early days, since Yuan Shang married Ziqing, the relationship between him and Tianyahai Pavilion could only be hostile, unless he could no longer care about the attitude of the Sword Palace and form an alliance with Tianyahai Pavilion, but doing so would not only make Yuan Shang lose the support of the Sword Palace, but I am afraid that even the Gongwan family would terminate the cooperation with Yuan Shang, which is more important, Yuan Shang will naturally be very clear.
"The centuries-old foundation of the Tianya Pavilion is in the Cangwu area, and if Shi Xie, who was born in the Cangwu clan, does not have the support of the Tianya Haige, he will naturally not be able to become the lord of a state in Jiaozhou, let alone join forces with Liu Bei to force His Majesty to death." Lu Su said indifferently.
Yuan Shang looked at the huge map hanging with an expressionless face, mountains, rivers, ravines, and cities, hanging upside down in his dark eyes, his thin and moderate lips were tightly pursed, and the slightly dim light could not see any emotion.
"Gifts are still exchanged"
Yuan Shang finally spoke, but his voice was a little cold: "This time I recruited you into Beijing, originally to let you enter Shu to assist Pang Tong, but since this happened, I will trouble you to run again, Shi Xie must die, as for the end of the world, how many points can be disabled, it is naturally not possible to use those people on your hands, and at that time, the Sword Palace and the old mansion of Runan will send people to assist you." ”
"Is it just that Sun Quan is cheaper?"
Lu Su hesitated a little and said: "The largest range that our army can control is the northern states, and once you get to the south, the control will be very weak, even if you succeed in sending Shixie to hell, you can only cheapen others." ”
"It doesn't matter"
Yuan Shang sneered: "Everyone is riding on the neck of the general, if you don't fight back, how do others think of the general?" Don't think that only the intelligence department has found the heads of Shi Xie and Liu Bei, I'm afraid that other ancient forces have long been watching from the sidelines and waiting to see a good show. ”
When Lu Su heard this, his brows trembled slightly, he didn't say anything more, his expression was straight, and he clenched his fists and said, "My subordinates will definitely live up to the high expectations of the lord." ”
"Let's go"
Yuan Shang waved his hand, this trivial matter in Chang'an consumed a lot of his time, and even disrupted some of his arrangements, and his mood was far less indifferent than what he showed.
Lu Su bowed down and withdrew from the side courtyard, and happened to meet Ziqing, who was dressed in a strong suit, and walked over, his heart was terrified, and he hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"Lu Su has seen Madame."
Ziqing has not changed into this goose yellow suit for several years, from being a new wife to becoming a mother, she has changed too much in more than five years.
It's just that when she changed into a strong suit again, the heroic posture on her body was still so strong, a person who has been holding swords, practicing swords and understanding swords since childhood, no matter how much time passes, she can't wipe out the temperament on her body.
"It's Mr. Zijing."
Although Lu Su was not in Chang'an all the year round, Ziqing still remembered that Yuan Shang called this great talent who was both civil and military, and seeing Lu Su saluting him, Ziqing hurriedly stopped: "Sir doesn't need to be polite." ”
Lu Su's waist was straight, looking at Ziqing, who was wearing a strong suit and holding a sword in his left hand, he muttered in his heart, this lady from the Sword Palace is really as rumored, she doesn't like red makeup and loves military clothes, looking at this heroic appearance, Lu Su couldn't help but have a strange feeling, you know, in that era, it was really rare for a woman to be able to walk around the mansion with a weapon so casually.
dispersed the strange feeling, but saw Lu Su arch his hand and said: "Madame has something important to do, and Lu Su is inconvenient to delay, so I will retire." ”
When Ziqing heard this, she didn't have a false retention, she looked at the maid on the side and smiled, and said with a smile: "Laughing, Mrs. Daiben sent Mr. out of the house." ”
"Slaves and maids obey." The smile with a good face whispered softly.
Lu Su doesn't push, the general is not small, and having a girl with a good face to guide the way is a good thing after all.
Seeing that the laughter led Lu Su away, Ziqing retracted her gaze, changed the sword in her left hand to her right hand, and walked into the side courtyard with her head held high, ignoring the demeanor of the general's wife. (To be continued......)
