Emperor 399: The Son of Heaven Guards the Country (II)

This Gulunbo is also known as Hulun Lake in later generations.

Located in the grasslands of Inner Mongolia, it is a brackish lake with abundant groundwater resources, the source of which is the Klulun River.

"Are you sure?"

When Zhuge Jin heard the news, he was overjoyed at first, and then an inexplicable confusion arose in his heart.

"Of course I'm sure, this matter is still told by my brother Pei."

The person who spoke was named Pei Xuan, the name was Yanhuang, and he was a native of Xiapi in Xuzhou.

If you trace back to the ancestors, Xuzhou Pei and Hedong Pei are one family. After the war, the Pei children gradually came out of Hedong, and one of them settled in Xuzhou. Pei Xuan, that is, the son of Xuzhou Pei. However, when Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, Pei Xuan and his family left Xuzhou and settled in Jiangdong. Later, under the recommendation of Lu Su, he served under Sun Quan and served as the chief bookkeeper.

This time, Zhuge Jin sent an envoy to Xu Du, and Sun Quan also sent Pei Xuan and Wang Lujiu to accompany him.

However, in comparison, Wang Lujiu's background is far inferior to Pei Xuan and Zhuge Jin, but because he is from Langya, Zhuge Jin remembers the friendship of his fellow villagers, so he let him follow. Wang Lujiu is a very scheming person, usually quiet and doesn't seem to like to talk very much.

At this time, he sat aside and quietly listened to the conversation between Zhuge Jin and Pei Xuan.

"In this way, isn't Xu Du very chaotic now?"

"Almost!" Pei Xuan said: "According to Pei, Budu Genke can gather 200,000 troops with Erchan, and now he has Chen Bing and Wolf Juxu, and he wants to fight to the death with Uncle Liu Huang. If you want me to say, Uncle Liu Huang is too tough on the outside world. If he hadn't forced that Xianbei person to be in a hurry, it is estimated that Budugen and they would not have joined forces with Erzen. I have heard that Uncle Liu seems to be preparing to fight in person, and he has ordered people to gather troops in Youzhou, vowing to fight to the death with the Xianbei people...... In my opinion, he didn't have to do this. Those barbarians are just greedy for money, as long as they are given some benefits, I believe that the Xianbei people will not make much trouble......"

In Pei Xuan's words, there was a sense of schadenfreude.

Zhuge Jin pondered for a long time, and said softly: "If that's the case, I'm going to ask Uncle Liu Huang now, and I can't say that I can achieve the lord's trust?" ”

"Quite possibly!"

Pei Xuan said: "Uncle Liu Huang is now suffering from the enemy on his back, and it is estimated that he does not have much energy to use troops to Jiangdong. ”

"So very good...... Zhuge Jin showed appreciation, and said to Pei Xuan: "Yanhuang's news is really timely, if it can be successful this time, Yanhuang should take the first credit." In this way, you will contact your brother again in the next two days, and try to find out some new news. ”

Pei, and now the official worships Shangshutai Langzhong and assists Sima Fang in doing things.

Pei Xuan took the order and left, while Zhuge Jin showed a contemplative attitude and sat there without saying a word.

"Lu Jiu, what do you think?"

After a long time, Zhuge Jin raised his head and looked at Wang Lujiu.

Wang Lujiu put down the pen in his hand and said with a smile: "Ziyu already has a belly case, why ask me?" ”

"Still, I'd like to hear from you."

Wang Lujiu's status in Jiangdong is not high, and he is taken care of by Zhuge Jin a lot on weekdays. Now hearing that Zhuge Jin asked for his opinion, Wang Lujiu couldn't help laughing.

"Xianbei's 200,000 army is estimated to be true, and the union of Budugen and Erzen may also be true.

It's just that Uncle Liu Huang has been running Northern Xinjiang for several years, and since he destroyed Yan Liyou, he has placed elite soldiers and strong generals in Daxianbei Mountain, and he has continued to immigrate to Northern Xinjiang over the years, and his strength has been stabilized. Not to mention anything else, as far as I know, Uncle Liu Huang has arranged for a tiger general like Lu Bu in northern Xinjiang, and Tian Yu Tian Chou is strategizing. Youzhou is the foundation of Uncle Liu Huang, even if he lives in the center now, how can Youzhou have no elite soldiers? The Xianbei Ding 200,000 army wants to win, in my opinion, I am afraid it will not be so easy. ”

"What Lu Jiu said is exactly what I want."

Zhuge Jin stood up, sighed and said, "I also think that Uncle Liu Huang may not be so easy to defeat.

But ......"

Zhuge Jin paced in the room, as if talking to himself: "The news of this matter is vivid outside, and it seems that it can't be faked."

If Uncle Liu Huang hadn't lost, what was his intention in creating this rumor? It stands to reason that he was preparing to move the capital at this time, and he should focus on stability. What good does it do him if he creates such rumors? If you don't make a good one, it will damage his reputation. ”

Wang Lujiu was silent, just stood up, walked to the door, looked left and right, and then closed the door.

"Ziyu, your teacher told me, what do you think now?"

"What does Lu Jiu mean by this?"

"Uncle Liu Huang wants to use troops against Jiangdong, do you think the lord is an opponent?"

"Well...... this"

Wang Lujiu said in a deep voice: "Now that Uncle Liu Huang is unified in the north, the Han family is about to flourish...... It's a pity that the lord still can't see the form clearly, and it is impossible to stand on his own feet like before. Under such circumstances, Ziyu, you have to think more about the future, so as not to miss the opportunity. ”

Zhuge Jin was stunned, and a gleam immediately appeared in his eyes.

"Lu Jiu, you ......"

Wang Lujiu smiled slightly, and said softly: "Ziyu, you don't have to be nervous, I have no malice in saying these words to you."

Although I don't know why Uncle Liu Huang created such rumors, I believe that Uncle Liu must have some plan, but he will never stop the conquest of Jiangdong. Perhaps, the crisis in northern Xinjiang was specially created by Uncle Liu Huang, but you and I can't guess his true purpose. Ziyu treats me well, I really can't bear to harm you...... Now the situation is clear. If Ziyu doesn't plan in advance, I'm afraid it will be too late! Your two younger brothers are both working under Uncle Liu, and your sister is Uncle Liu's wife. The lord may value your talents, but if he believes in you, I am not afraid of you......

Ziyu, what kind of temper is the lord, I believe you know better than me. ”

Wang Lujiu said this, if Zhuge Jin still doesn't understand Wang Lujiu's origin, then he is really a fool!

"You work for, Uncle Liu?"

Wang Lujiu stretched out two fingers and said softly: "It's been two years." ”

When Zhuge Jin heard this, he couldn't help but show a bitter smile, "In this way, Uncle Liu Huang already knew about my arrival in Xudu?" ”

"Otherwise, how could Pei Langzhong meet Yan Huang?"

Zhuge Jin was silent!

He said softly: "Then in Lu Jiu's opinion, what should I do?" ”

"Ziyu, since you are here, it is not common to be so sneaky after all.

Today, most of Uncle Liu's family members are in Luoyang, and only the second lady stays in Xudu...... This is Uncle Liu Huang and Ziyu's last chance, if you want to give up again, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult to meet with the second lady and them in the future. Since Ziyu didn't know how to choose, why not go to the General's Mansion to visit the second lady. The right to be a brother and sister meet and talk to each other...... Then, just wait and see how things develop. ”

Wang Lujiu's words reached Zhuge Jin's heart.

He didn't know that trying to dissuade Liu Chuang from using troops against Jiangdong was basically wishful thinking.

Now that you know the results, why bother with them? Wang Lujiu is right, and he will visit the second sister first and wait to see how the situation changes!

Just when Zhuge Jin made up his mind to visit Zhuge Ling, on the Jinluan Treasure Hall in the imperial city of Xudu, a controversy affecting the Han family was also underway.

When Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty first heard that Liu Chuang's army had defeated Gu Lunbo, he was also ecstatic.

You Liu Chuang, finally lost!

However, you have an excuse for this loss.

Liu Xie originally planned to reprimand Liu Chuang in the court and take the opportunity to suppress Liu Chuang's prestige, but he didn't know that Liu Chuang ignored it at all.

"Today, I am in the Han room, and I am in trouble both internally and externally.

There are Xianbei and other alien races on the outside, and there are princes with suspicions inside.

Since Huan Ling, the court decrees have been chaotic, and the discipline has not existed. In the long run, it will not be beneficial to my Han family. The minister has the courage to ask His Majesty to reset the post of prime minister, so that the government decree can be unified, and there will be no more orders out of the house, so that the ministers are at a loss.

The emperor's uncle, Liu Chuang, is loyal, virtuous, and has outstanding achievements.

Please worship the emperor's uncle as the prime minister, and the dynasty will be returned to the Han family, and the misfortune of the court will be cut off from the petty treacherous control of the court......"

Shang Shu ordered Sima Fang to suddenly propose to reset the post of prime minister at the court meeting, which made Liu Xie not know what to do for a while.

In the past, there were some people around him who cheered for him. But after killing Jin Yi and others, such people almost disappeared from the court. Therefore, when Sima Fang made this request, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty agreed one after another. This also made Liu Xie feel overwhelmed, he had the heart to refuse, but he didn't know what kind of excuse to find. After all, the Manchu civil and military agreed that it would be very difficult for him to prevent the restoration of the post of prime minister.

In fact, even if he doesn't agree, he Liu Chuang can forcibly restore the prime minister!

After a moment of panic, Liu Xie quickly calmed down, thinking about the stakes.

After a while, Liu Xie made up his mind, "There is nothing wrong with resetting the prime minister."

It's just that now Xianbei is in turmoil in the northern Xinjiang, and the emperor's uncle is good at fighting, so he should personally lead the soldiers and horses to conquest, so that Hu Lu knows the majesty of my Han family and raises the prestige of my Han. ”

"No!"

Without waiting for Liu Xie's voice to fall, a person walked out of the class.

When Liu Xie saw this person, he couldn't help but grit his teeth in his heart.

Speaking of which, this person is also a member of the Han family, but from beginning to end, he has not shared any sorrow for himself.

This person is Liu Ye.

Liu Ye had been working in Daxianbei Mountain before, and after Liu broke into the main Xu Capital, Liu Ye was ordered to resign and return to the court from Daxianbei Mountain.

At first, Emperor Han thought that a helper had come.

But who would have thought that Liu Ye ignored him at all, but tried his best to help Liu Chuang, which also made the hatred of Liu Ye in the heart of Emperor Han deeper.

Liu Ye said: "Today, the princes are plotting rebellion and chaos inside.

The minister heard that the outside must first be settled, and the princes will not be destroyed, how can I make my Han family peaceful? Uncle Huang is a general, and he supervises the world's soldiers and horses, so he should sit in the center. When the minister was in Youzhou, he heard a folk song that said: The Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies. His Majesty is ordered by the heavens, and Hu Lu is nothing more than the ringworm of the scales. Now, it is the time for the Son of Heaven to exalt his prestige and convince the subjects of the world, why not take the imperial expedition and sit in Yanjing? When the time comes, the northern Xinjiang will be peaceful, and it will be difficult for Hu Lu to continue...... At that time, the sage of the Son of Heaven will also spread to Kyushu and be praised by the world. ”

The Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies?

When Liu Xie heard this, he suddenly felt panicked in his heart.

He looked at Liu Chuang, but saw that Liu Chuang was looking at him.

When their eyes met, Liu Chuang smiled slightly at Liu Xie, and Liu Xie's heart suddenly became more flustered......
