Chapter 218: The Invisible Rope
PS: xiexie buckles the monthly pass of Mingfeng Qiyun and Chen Chaoweng~~~~
There was silence in the hall, and more than ten eyes looked at Liu Gaozhi, but Liu Gaozhi stared at Huan Xuan's handwritten letter over and over again, accompanied by obvious frowns!
All the generals felt unusual, and secretly guessed Huan Xuan's intentions, Liu Jingxuan couldn't wait to ask: "Father, my Beifu has nothing to do with Jingzhou, why is Huan Xuan looking for you?" ”
Liu Gaozhi signaled to the left and right: "Read! ”
A personal entourage picked up the letter and read it aloud: "The general has made outstanding achievements, is the pillar of the country, when he understands the righteousness, Sima Daozi has been perverse since he took charge of the center, appointing private individuals, and the country's power is declining day by day, and it is in danger!" Xuan couldn't bear to see the country falling, for the people of the world, he wanted to raise an army to fight against Sima Daozi, so he invited the general to help the great cause!
The general may have doubts, but please listen to the words of Xuan from the bottom of his heart: Since ancient times, he has worn the power of the Lord Zhen, and he has not rewarded his merits, but who can do it all? Yue's literature, Qin's Baiqi, Han's Han Xin, all of them are the master, do their best for it, and on the day of success, they will inevitably be punished, and they will be used by the fierce fools? If you help Sima Daozi win Xuan, Xuan dares to predict that if you win, you will fall into the sect, and if you are defeated, you will overthrow the clan, and you want to return to peace with this? If you don't change the map, you can enjoy the wealth for a long time, the ancients shot the hook and cut it, and it is still not harmful to assist, and the situation Xuan and the general have no grievances in the past? ”
Huan Xuan's letter was not long, only a hundred words, but it caused an uproar in the hall, and the generals discussed it, but Liu Gaozhi was still silent.
Gradually, all eyes were turned back to Liu Gaozhi one after another, and Liu Gaozhi did not express his position on the matter of raising troops, which more or less exposed his thoughts.
He Wuji arched his hand: "General, what Huan Xuan said is right. You and Sima Daozi have long been on the same page, and Yuan Xian's levy of slaves is precisely to deal with you. It's just a big mess, but sooner or later there will be another trick. Rather than waiting for him to make a move, it is better to strike first, the general can take this opportunity to get rid of Sima Daozi, and Huan Xuanli should be a person who understands, and he has made a promise to put his heart in his heart and share wealth with you, but he will not dare to regret it, otherwise, how can I agree to 80,000 elite soldiers in Beifu? What are you waiting for? ”
"Hmm~~" Liu Gaozhi nodded with a hint of hesitation: "The general is also worried that the court will not let go." It doesn't hurt to promise that Huan Xuan is coming, but my Beifu doesn't have to face the court swords for the time being, just wait and see what happens, what do you think? ”
"This" Sun Wuzhong frowned, and then said: "The country is in decline, and the weight of the world lies in the general and Huan Xuan, Huan Xuan borrowed the capital of his father and uncle, and has possessed the old realm of Chu. Cut two-thirds of our dynasty, if one is indulged, so that the Ling court will become prestigious. I'm afraid it's hard to figure it out, Dong Zhuo's change is close at hand. Please think twice! ”
"Father, Huan Xuan is always an outsider. raised troops to attack the court, just like Wang Gong rebelled against the thief at the beginning. General Sun is right, you can't be hasty! Liu Jingxuan also hurriedly persuaded.
Liu Gaozhi showed obvious unhappiness, waved his hand and said, "Don't you know that it is easy to break Huan today?" But after Pinghuan, how to deal with yourself? King Xiang went upstream to threaten, how could he not let go and deal with me? No end, long life, I will understand what you mean, it's just that I'm worried that Huan Xuan will covet the artifact like Huan Xuanwu, but I have 80,000 elite soldiers in Beifu eyeing me, how dare he make Zhi faint? The Lord is fooled! The general has made up his mind, and there is no need to persuade him. ”
Sun Wuzhong rolled his lips, but did not speak, in fact, he can also understand Liu Xuanzhi's difficult situation, between Huan Xuan and Sima Daozi, Liu Xuanzhi is not a person, but relatively speaking, Sima Daozi occupies the name of righteousness, and sending troops to attack for no reason is tantamount to rebellion, it is not impossible to get rid of Sima Daozi by Huan Xuan's hand, but what about Sima Daozi? Could Huan Xuan be another Sima Daozi if he stood firm? What about the coercion then?
Sun Wuzhi suddenly felt that his head was big, in his eyes, Liu Gaozhi seemed to be tightly bound by an invisible rope, not struggling, he could only be kneaded by others, he couldn't move, but he struggled, not only could he not break free, but he became tighter and tighter, and finally was strangled to death!
Sun Wuzhong had a very strange feeling that the 80,000 elite soldiers in Beifu could not guarantee Liu Gaozhi's safety and envy, but a heavy burden!
'Ridiculous, what is there to fear when you have strong soldiers in hand?' Sun Wuzhong laughed and suppressed this thought, but he didn't know how to help Liu Gaozhi get out of the predicament, and after sighing secretly, he arched his hand and asked: "General, the prime minister summoned Deyu to Beijing, and allowed to be the Taishou of Xiapi, how should this be handled?" ”
Liu Gaozhi thought for a while, and then said: "Send the original letter of the Prime Minister to Deyu, how to decide and dispose of it by himself!" Well, that's the end for today, and you're all gone. ”
"The last general will leave!" The generals in the palace all felt a kind of uneasiness in their hearts, but no one said anything specifically, so they gave salutes and retired, and after a while, only Liu Gaozhi was left sitting on the top of the military palace hall of Nuoda, with a keen sense of smell cultivated by many years of birth and death, although he also realized that the situation was not good, but, sandwiched between Huan Xuan and Sima Daozi, what else could he do as a second-class scholar? Although having 80,000 elite soldiers is invincible militarily, how much role can it play in the political struggle?
Liu Gaozhi looked at the top of the hall in a daze, and his eyes shot out of confusion.
In the next few days, Liu Gaozhi did not lead the army to meet Sima Yuanxian, nor did he cooperate with Huan Xuan to attack Jiankang, looking like he was sitting on the wall and watching, although Sima Daozi was anxious to scold, but there was nothing he could do about Liu Gaozhi, and this was exactly the result that Huan Xuan wanted.
The fine work was rushed out by Jiankang on the 25th of the first month, and on this day, Sima Daozi's edict was sent to the sentence.
"Sir, take a look." After Liu Yu read it, he handed it to Liu Muzhi.
Liu Muzhi took a closer look, his brows tightened more and more, and after a while, he asked, "How does the general plan to act?" ”
"This" Liu Yu hesitated: "The court is rewarding meritorious deeds, there is nothing to blame, with Sun En's head is enough to be worthy of Pi Taishou, but the prime minister may have other considerations, and the general just can't make up his mind, please ask Mr. to help you take a look." ”
Liu Muzhi sighed: "Although Xiapi Taishou and Juzhang Taishou are both Taishou, the rank and rank are all five grades, but the status is very different, Xiapi is a big county, and it is an important town in the north of the court.
What's more, entering Beijing is to fight with Huan Xuan, and the auxiliary general did not make it clear, it can be seen that the attitude is ambiguous, if Mu Zhi is not mistaken, my Beifu should have set a strategy of standing by and watching, regardless of whether it is timely or not, but if the general you ignore the will of the auxiliary general to receive the reward privately, it may not be possible to attract revenge, and it is inevitable to be gradually marginalized! ”
"Thank you, sir, for your advice!" Liu Yu bowed deeply: "Ben will understand, then, find an excuse to push the past, and stay in the sentence." (To be continued......)
