Chapter 701: A thief's heart is immortal
Han Jian then sneered, Yang Rui agreed that the family's relocation was already a big deal, but compared to what she said about moving the capital, it seemed that this matter was nothing.
"Why don't you speak, what shouldn't you ask at this time? Or do you think it's the best time to move to the capital? Yang Rui saw that Han Jian didn't say anything, but questioned Han Jian first.
In her opinion, Han Jian's unusual face showed that Han Jian cared in her heart, and she seemed to deliberately want to be angry with Han Jian, so she had to spread out the problem to be happy.
Han Jian said: "Let me ask you, who have you discussed with about moving the capital?" ”
"What, you still want to kill? The matter of moving the capital is decided by me alone, and I am safe with others, and now the palace is full of your eyes, who have I met with in the past few days, will you not know? ”
After Yang Rui finished speaking, she directly pushed the book on the table to the ground to show that she was angry. Han Jian didn't pay attention to it.
"Where is the capital?" Han Jian's tone calmed down a little and continued to ask.
"At this point, you still have to ask me, don't you know where those families have moved? Now that Luoyang has been able to hold on for a long time, when Xi'er returns from the west, I am afraid that it will be the day when Luoyang will not be guaranteed. Instead of waiting to be the king of the dead country, why not move out early? ”
Han Jian felt that Yang Rui was no longer calm and discussing things with him, but completely angry for the sake of being angry.
Where the Luoyang family moved, he didn't want to care. But now the Central Plains can be a big city of the imperial city, and there are only a few of them. In addition to Luoyang, even Jiangdu is just a small city, and moving the political center of the Wei Dynasty away from Luoyang is actually similar to giving up the country. In the past, Yang Rui would never do this, but who knows if Yang Rui, who was under the coercion of the East Prince's Mansion, would do anything impulsive?
"This matter can be discussed in the long run!" Even if Han Jian knew that he was a little low-mouthed when he said this, he still didn't get angry, even if he wanted to move the capital. Han Jian thinks that it shouldn't be the moment, Yang Rui is now inconvenienced, and he can't withstand the fatigue of a long journey, and the war in the west has just begun, and there is no even exchange of troops with the Xiwangfu, so why move the capital now?
"Anyway, I'm the emperor. Even your life is under your control, if you want to force it, you will naturally be up to you! Yang Rui said angrily.
Han Jian turned around and left, it was not a way to continue to entangle with Yang Rui like this. Now Yang Rui is also completely angry, and if he doesn't listen to him, it is better to wait for Gu Weipan to ask him clearly.
Early the next morning, Han Jian personally went to the Gu Mansion to pay a visit.
In Gu Mansion, Gu Weipan hadn't gotten up and hadn't gone to Shangshutai yet, and he was a little surprised to learn that Han Jian had arrived.
Han Jian hadn't been to Gu Weipan's mansion for a long time. When I came in, I found that it was also very deserted, probably because Gu Weipan was also used to living in a simple life, thinking that he was the deputy auxiliary minister of the imperial court, but he only lived in a small courtyard with Mrs. Xue, and he didn't want a huge mansion. Although I am moving back now, there are not many people in the house, many of them have been separated in the turmoil of the previous years, and there are not too many people in the house. He also doesn't need much to take care of.
It's Mrs. Xue, who is Gu Weipan's side room. But he also served tea and water like his subordinates. Han Jian saw Mrs. Xue serving the tea with a calm face, and couldn't help but be surprised and asked, "There are no people in Mrs. Gu's mansion?" ”
Gu Weipan smiled and said, "There are a few, not many of them are old and old. Now the situation of the court is not as good as before, but an old bone can take care of itself, why do you need others? ”
Han Jianxin said that this is probably the model of a hundred officials, which is also Gu Weipan's high consciousness. No other minister of the imperial court can have such a bearing and open-mindedness. Thinking about it, it is also the difference that everyone pursues.
"His Majesty allowed some families to move out of Luoyang yesterday, I wonder if Mrs. Gu knows?" Han Jian didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly.
Gu Weipan nodded and said, "It's true, but Your Majesty has never talked to the old man, so I think it's Your Majesty's own decision." As for why. Today, I have to go to the court to play, but it seems that His Majesty's intention is resolute, even if he wants to ask, he can't ask a doorway. ”
Han Jianxin said that Yang Rui was playing with fire and self-immolation, and now it seems that he deliberately wants to be angry with him, and even disregards some basic principles.
Originally, Yang Rui was fine, but she was upset and irritable after she was pregnant, and Yang Xi's expedition annoyed her, so she had these unusual behaviors.
"Mrs. Gu, there is something to ask for." Han Jian said suddenly.
"Oh?" Gu Weipan looked surprised, with his current situation, if he didn't ask for the East Prince's Mansion, it was already good, how could Han Jian still have something to ask for?
Han Jian said bluntly: "I also ask Mrs. Gu to mobilize his contacts and write to His Majesty, explaining the disadvantages of moving the capital, and imploring His Majesty to take back his life." ”
Gu Weipan was also shocked, and said, "What does the king of the east mean, is His Majesty going to move the capital?" ”
Han Jian didn't know that such a big thing was because Yang Rui was deliberately embarrassing him, and even Gu Weipan, the head of the imperial court, didn't know it, which showed how intentionally Yang Rui was to avoid the East Wangfu ring. Although Gu Weipan is an indispensable person in the imperial court, he is also a person who has a connection with the Eastern Wangfu in Yang Rui's mind, Yang Rui relies on Gu Weipan in court politics, hoping that he can mediate between the imperial court and the Eastern Wangfu, but she is also wary of Gu Weipan. She knew that Gu Weipan was two-faced, that is, neither side could be offended, which had many benefits, but the disadvantage was that if something happened, Gu Weipan would probably inform Han Jian.
"This ......" Gu Weipan hesitated for a moment and said, "I still let the old man ask about this matter." ”
Han Jian nodded, he felt the disappointment in Gu Weipan's eyes.
As the first assistant of the imperial court, he actually learned from Han Jian that he was going to move the capital, and Han Jian obviously knew about it, which also showed that Yang Rui did not trust him. As an old minister who has been rolling in the imperial court for decades, how could Gu Weipan not understand Yang Rui's thoughts? This is also the most disappointing thing for an old minister like him who is dedicated to the court, just like Lin Ke was abandoned by Yang Rui at the beginning.
Han Jian and Gu Weipan went out of the house together, and then parted ways, Gu Weipan went to Shangshutai, and Han Jian was still busy with military affairs. After all, the most urgent thing in front of him is the retreat of Su Tingxia's subordinates, as well as the battle with the Xiwangfu in Guanzhong.
……
……
As soon as Gu Weipan went, there seemed to be no news, and Han Jian sent people to inquire several times, but there was no news. Later, he learned that Gu Weipan entered the palace to meet Yang Rui, but as for whether he asked each other or wrote a book, Han Jian did not know.
By the afternoon. Han Jian was about to return home, but an urgent official letter came from the south. An urgent report came from 300 miles south of Luoyang City, saying that the soldiers and horses of the Nanwang Mansion were approaching Luoyang under the leadership of Zhennan Hou, as if they had the intention of capturing Luoyang City.
Han Jian carefully read the information, and the soldiers and horses of the Hou of Zhennan had bypassed several garrison cities south of Luoyang. It can be regarded as ignoring the back road and coming directly in the direction of Luoyang. In the past few days, Han Jian has not relaxed his vigilance against the Nanwangfu, and now the soldiers and horses of the Nanwangfu suddenly killed Luoyang, obviously taking advantage of the emptiness of the Luoyang garrison.
"Please come here!" Han Jian didn't say a word, and sent someone to Nanwangfu to ask for someone.
Yang Luochuan has not moved much in the mansion these days, and there is no situation to indicate that Yang Luochuan has the intention of fleeing south. Han Jian was also staring at it for fear that something would happen, and now the soldiers and horses of the Hou of Zhennan suddenly marched north, which also showed that Yang Luochuan had already prepared. He also faintly felt uneasy in his heart, this time he sent someone to invite, most of them would not see anyone.
Really. The people sent to Nanwangfu soon came back and said that Yang Luochuan said that he was ill.
Han Jian didn't talk nonsense, and immediately dispatched troops to accompany him to the outside of Nanwang's Mansion. The gate of Nanwangfu was closed, and Han Jian asked people to go up and knock on the door, and in the end, he simply let people bang on the door.
When the soldiers rushed into the Nanwang Mansion, there was only a group of unknown people left. When asked, it was said that Yang Luochuan had not come out of the room for a few days, and he was recuperating. But after opening Yang Luochuan's door, he found that it was already empty. Who?
"This old horseman actually escaped under his nose?"
Han Jian was angry from his heart, he couldn't count Yang Luochuan as a treacherous and cunning, on the one hand, he said that the Hou of Zhennan had the intention of being self-reliant and complained in front of him, but on the other hand, he let the soldiers and horses of the Hou of Zhennan be stationed in the south of Luoyang for several months. Although the vigilance against Nanwangfu was strengthened, Yang Luochuan was still allowed to escape.
"Search the whole server up and down, don't let go of any corner!"
After Han Jian finished the order, he went directly to the palace. Yang Luochuan fled and went north with the soldiers and horses of Zhennan Hou. This happened almost at the same time, which means that Yang Luochuan is not dead in his heart and has the intention of taking advantage of the chaos to seize power. Although Yang Luochuan's move was very treacherous, it was probably within Han Jian's range, and while he sent troops to the west, he also prepared for the move of Yuzhou soldiers and horses to Luoyang. It's just that Yang Luochuan's disappearance is too strange, and under strict control, Yang Luochuan can still escape, and there must be some ways to do this.
Before Han Jian arrived at the palace gate, Daxi Liu, who was passed by Han Jian, was already waiting in front of the palace gate.
Seeing Han Jian, Daxi Liu hurriedly pleaded guilty, because she was mainly responsible for the manpower to monitor Nanwangfu.
"Good things you did!" Han Jian said angrily, "People run away like this under the watch, do you know what kind of crime it is?" ”
"The subordinates are not doing well, and please punish the young man!"
Han Jian sighed and said, "It's okay." Hurry up and find out the truth, even if the person is gone, see if it can be recovered, or if the old man is still hiding in Luoyang. This qiē is just a trick for him to hide from the sky and cross the sea, if there is a bad pool, don't say that this king is ruthless! ”
Onishiliu hurriedly saluted and apologized, and hurriedly went to investigate.
And Han Jian entered the palace and went directly to Ye'an Pavilion. When he went to the Ye'an Pavilion, he ignored the fact that some ministers were waiting, and entered it without notice.
At this time, in the Ye'an Pavilion, Yang Rui was meeting with Gu Weipan and some ministers of the Sixth Ministry, and the scene was already a bit deadlocked.
"King Dong, why did you come here?"
Han Jian entered inside without being informed, and in front of all the ministers, obviously he didn't take Yang Rui seriously, how could Yang Rui not be annoyed?
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has something important to play!" Han Jian glanced at the minister on the side, meaning to report it alone.
"Stand down!"
After Yang Rui finished speaking, the ministers saluted and retired. When everyone went out, Yang Ruicai was a little angry and said, "Why can't you wait until you go back?" ”
"There is no time to wait."
Han Jian immediately made it clear about the northward movement of the Hou soldiers and horses in Zhennan and the escape of Yang Luochuan. Yang Rui's face suddenly became ugly, she naturally knew how empty the Luoyang garrison was now, and she also knew that the soldiers and horses of the Marquis of Zhennan were not ordinary rebels, but well-trained soldiers and horses. Such a group of soldiers and horses will kill Luoyang, even if Luoyang cannot be captured, the city and outside the city will inevitably be tossed.
"They all said they were going to move the capital, do you know how important it is now?" Yang Rui stood up angrily, but he was also pacing to find a way.
Originally, it could be said that the capital would be moved, but now the soldiers and horses of the Marquis of Zhennan can come to the city at any time, and there is no other way, and it seems that there is only one way to defend Luoyang.
"If you move elsewhere, the soldiers and horses of Yuzhou will turn a blind eye?" Han Jian asked rhetorically.
"You also said that if you hadn't done things well, how would you have caused the king of the south to escape? Or do you deliberately connive, I just said yesterday that the capital would be moved, and you colluded with the king of the south, let him go, and then let the king of the south go to Luoyang to kill the horses? ”
Han Jian sighed, now Yang Rui didn't give him a tone of consultation at all, and he thought badly about everything.
No matter how dull he is, he will not use Yang Luochuan to be angry with Yang Rui. Yang Luochuan is related to the ownership of the entire Yuzhou, originally Yang Luochuan was under the attack of the West Wangfu and the North Wangfu, and had to choose to take refuge in the imperial court and belong to the dispatch of the East Wangfu, he has always had the heart of self-reliance, and Han Jian has always been on guard. But some things are not enough to rely on precautions, and Yang Luochuan has long been ready to leave Luoyang, but he just chose a more suitable time.
"Now it's better to think about how to stick to Luoyang City." Han Jian said, "With the speed of the Zhennan Hou cavalry, it is estimated that Luoyang can be reached in one or two days." However, there is one thing that has to be said, judging from the situation learned from the front line, the soldiers and horses of the Marquis of Zhennan are mainly scattered horses, and they do not have the burden of attacking the city, and they do not seem to have the ability to attack the city. If he is bent on attacking Luoyang, there is only one way, that is, there must be an internal response of Nanwangfu in the city. ”
Yang Rui thought about it for a while, and then he also felt that Han Jian's words made sense.
Since you want to attack the city, you must have the burden of attacking the city, which is the most basic truth, not to mention a big city like Luoyang.
Luoyang City is highly dangerous, and there is a moat, coupled with the inner city and the outer city are heavily prepared, even if Yang Yu was attacked into the outer city by the rebel army when he was in power before, he can hold on for a few months without losing, mainly because the rebel army lacks siege baggage, and the food in the city is basically enough.
"Then have you ever thought about how long the city garrison can last if the city is besieged?" Yang Rui asked.
Han Jian smiled, Yang Rui's question seemed to be able to stop him, because there was obviously not much grain in the city, and in the past two years, the national strength of the Wei Dynasty had fallen to the lowest point, let alone a few months, without external supplies, the city would not be able to hold out for a month.
But if Lin Zhan's soldiers and horses are to be transferred to the south, it will not take a month, and the soldiers and horses can return to help, and then there is a combination of inside and outside the city, and the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of Zhennanhou are obviously a drop in the bucket.
Zhennanhou understands this, Han Jian also knows it, and Yang Luochuan will not know it. In this case, only Yang Luochuan and Zhennanhou Huang Shilang knew whether the soldiers and horses of Zhennanhou were going north, whether they wanted to attack the city or have other purposes.
