Daliang Beijing, the official to the second grade, is a veritable mainstay of the imperial court, a high-ranking red-top official, one of the main leaders of the Youzhou Party who has faintly overwhelmed the Jiangzhou Party in the court, Xu Shijie's family in the mansion purchased in Dongcheng.

Although the entire government and the opposition, whether it is an old minister who has been in the officialdom for many years, or a rookie in the officialdom who has just emerged and has a bright future, everyone knows that this is the "microphone" that the Xu family, the prince of Zhuguo who is far away in Youzhou, has worked hard to push up, but even if it is just to avoid suspicion on the surface, the mansion of Xu Shijie's family is still far away from the mansion that the Xu family bought early in the capital, and on weekdays, it is rare to see the two sides.

Of course, how many private meetings there are, then it is not enough for outsiders.

Especially the current Da Liang, it can be said that it has suddenly fallen into an unprecedented stormy time, from the time when Emperor Taizu set up the foundation with the strength of a few people, and then scattered all the money to raise an army, and rushed to kill everywhere in the chaos of the south, rolling bigger and bigger, until he earned this huge foundation to establish the country, and then now he is now the third generation of the emperor of Da Liang, and it is the first time that Da Liang has suffered such a big loss in its hundred years of history.

Yanzhou, Haizhou, Youzhou, three large states that have accounted for two-thirds of the territory of Daliang have had accidents one after another, and the officials in the capital have no military affairs, no matter which yamen, whether it is Huang Zi Gongqing who has entered the Tianzi Hall, or the little officials who are still begging for a living at the bottom, they are very busy every day.

The large-scale court meeting on the Jinluan Palace, the small meeting held privately in the imperial study, the private meeting between the officials of the various ministries, for a time it was a group of demons dancing wildly, and the court was panicked, so that the people in the capital saw it, and they were also panicked, some said that the front had been defeated, and the incomparably brave Weijin coalition army was about to hit the capital in the near future, and some said that the imperial court had actually promised to cut land and pay compensation in exchange for peace, in short, on the streets of the market, it seemed that everyone suddenly had a relative who was an official in the court, and could get first-hand information.

Many people who still have some money left at home, as well as businessmen who came from all over the world, have already purchased things early, sold a lot of things cheaply, and hurriedly left the capital with their wives and children, and hurriedly went to Yongzhou, Jiangzhou and other places for refuge.

It is against this background of instability inside and outside the government and the opposition that today, Xu Shijie's home has an expected distinguished guest.

As early as more than half a year ago, Gu Li, the third prince who had been awarded the throne of King Qi, in order to avoid criticism from others, dressed up very seriously, changed to an inconspicuous carriage that was rarely used on weekdays, and specially entered through the back door of the food delivery on weekdays, and then received by Xu Shijie in person and brought to the living room.

Fortunately, at such a time, the other people on the street are too late to take care of themselves, who wastes time to see anything else.

After waving his hand and retreating the subordinates in the mansion, Gu Li asked impatiently: "Uncle, what the hell is going on, why did such a big thing happen, and they didn't even ventilate this king in advance?"

Xu Shijie was led into the door by the old general Xu Qianzhong, and then won this honor, changed his surname to Xu, and the general Xu Jintang who was still in Youzhou was also half a brother, plus he was in the court over the years, not only did his official position get higher and higher, but also as the backbone of the Youzhou Party, he was one of his biggest helpers to Gu Li, so his "uncle" was really not a loss.

When Xu Shijie heard this, he had to put down the teacup in his hand and hesitated for a moment, then he frowned and looked at Gu Li with an anxious face.

In fact, Xu Shijie himself was very entangled in this matter, and Xu Jintang suddenly sent a secret letter before, asking him to stop this recruitment of the Rakshasa clan, and since then, there have been differences and estrangements between the two parties who have not seen each other for a long time.

Of course, he understood Xu Jintang's thoughts, after all, if this Rakshasa clan did not fatten up, where could it reflect the importance of this Youzhou border army, that is, their Zhuguo Gong lineage?

The so-called is the death of the cunning rabbit, the lackeys are cooking, the birds are exhausted, and the good bow is hidden, if it is according to what General Xu once said, it is this force, don't use it all at once, if you want to keep your position in front of the master, you must slowly, and use this strength little by little, so as to keep the power of the Xu family alive.

It's a pity that he Xu Shijie is in the court, after all, he can't fight the hateful and terrible prince, in the final analysis, he still has to blame that the prince is too important in His Majesty's heart, the prince is easy not to speak, but if he says it, then all things have to be done according to his will, even His Majesty the Emperor has never refuted the prince once, not to mention that he is just a second-grade military attaché?

Therefore, this defeat cannot be entirely blamed on him.

Of course, he also has his own careful thoughts in private, in the final analysis, the Xu family is the Xu family, the three princes are the three princes, and he Xu Shijie is Xu Shijie, the three are different and cannot be confused.

He has left Youzhou and has been in the capital for so many years, and he has done a lot of things for the Xu family openly and secretly over the years, not to mention that the kindness has been repaid, then he has also repaid a seven, seven, eighty, eight, and eight, besides, if you want to say that you owe debts, what he owes is also the account of the old general Xu Quanzhong, and now that the old generals have become ancient, he can't still hang himself on the tree of the Xu family, right?

His surname, can be changed to Xu back then, and then naturally can be changed back, if it is just because of a third child who may not be able to ascend the throne, the prince who is in the sky will be offended to death, if the prince inherits the throne in the future, he can hardly guarantee that he will not be cleaned up as a henchman of the three princes, even if the prince is magnanimous and too lazy to care about him, the group of people under the prince must not put their whole family on the fire in order to please each other.

He Xu Jintang also became a family, started a business, just married the ninth concubine a few days ago, a good life is lived, moisturized very much, he is already very satisfied, at least compared to when he was lying in a waterhole in Shu as a scout to drink dirty water, eat raw snakes, and chew grasshoppers, it is much better, why bother to participate in this kind of party struggle again, and the more dangerous heir?

He is in the capital, the Xu family is in Youzhou, if he makes up his mind to ride the wall and be a good gentleman who can't be offended, I'm afraid that no one will move him, the worst, after stepping back from the cusp, is it feasible to be an idle person in the military department?

It's just that he never thought that this thing would change so quickly, the two countries of Wei and Jin, just like two mad dogs, before they saw the meat, they directly bit it viciously, forget it, even now it is still biting and not letting go, if it is just like this, it is not his turn to worry about a military attache who is messing around in the capital, but this should have been when Youzhou sent troops to help, Youzhou actually said that the border army was dragged by the Shu State and the Rakshasa clan together, and they couldn't move.

The General's Mansion also specially sent someone to send him a message, asking him to delay the imperial court and do his best to delay the time for the imperial court to let Youzhou send troops.

Thinking about him Xu Shijie, although he was born in a martial artist and has not read a serious book for a few years, but after so many years of court experience, even if he can't smell the unusual meaning, but his disciples have already faintly guessed, but that guess is too terrible, and it is completely forcing him to stand in line, so he doesn't dare to think about it, and he doesn't want to think about it.

Anyway, the only seedling of the Xu family is still in the capital, no matter how bad things are, how bad can they be?

As for today's sudden visit of King Qi, it is to understand with his brain, if the Xu family sends troops, relieves the siege of Yanzhou, repels the Weijin coalition army, and makes great contributions, then as the son of Xu Jintang's own sister, his relatives have made great contributions, and his status as the three princes is naturally rising, so that he can suppress the prince.

After all, this military merit is the most direct, and it is also the easiest to understand, how many heads the border army cut off the enemy in a battle, it is more direct than how much income the imperial court decree has increased to the people, and it is more direct.

What's more, he had heard some rumors before, saying that the prince had recently implemented the New Deal reform in various places, and he had gone against the grain, which had touched the fundamental interests of many wealthy lords.

But this is not important to him, anyway, no one can take his turn in this throne Xu Shijie, but today the king of Qi came to urge, but the general's mansion let him drag it, how to choose, how to persuade the other party, it is really a big problem.

Xu Shijie thought for a while, and then he arched his hand without being humble or arrogant: "His Royal Highness the King of Qi, the military situation is urgent, this official himself just learned about it before the court, why did he have time to communicate with His Royal Highness the King of Qi?"

Gu Li didn't hear the different smell, but because he was in a hurry, he got up from the chair at once, walked around the room with his hands behind his back, and persuaded bitterly: "Now is a great opportunity! Uncle! The war in Yanzhou is already in jeopardy, and the imperial court has no choice, seeing that this next step, the war will burn to Liangzhou, and it will burn to the capital, and at this time, it will not move there, what does it mean!"

Xu Shijie said helplessly: "Shu also has 500,000 soldiers blocked at the border of Youzhou, we just want to move, then we can't move, if we act rashly, I'm afraid that Yanzhou will not be cleared by then, but our Youzhou has fallen, that is really a big crime to lose your head! ”

The rise and fall of the Xu family is closely related to the two people in this house, and Gu Li can listen to this.

Gu Yi turned his head, sighed, covered his forehead and said: "That's what I said, but our Youzhou, don't we have 600,000 border troops, this is not counting the local militia, the other party is only 500,000 people, how can we not divide the troops to go to Yanzhou to relieve the siege first!"

"His Royal Highness King Qi, your mood, the lower officials understand. Xu Shijie thought of the excuse and said slowly, "But Xia Guan dared to ask His Royal Highness King Qi a question today, I don't know which is more memorable, this icing on the cake or the charcoal in the snow?"

Gu Li frowned slightly, he is also a very smart person, if not, where can he become the second largest mountain outside of Gu Cang, just thinking about it for a while, he understood what the other party meant, he hurriedly stepped forward and said cautiously: "You mean, everything is still under control?

Xu Shijie nodded lightly, made a teachable appearance, and then also lowered his voice and said: "It is precisely this reason, if His Royal Highness King Qi really has thoughts about that position, at this time, he must be calm and patient, so that he can have the last laugh. ”

When Gu Li heard this, his eyes were slightly hot, he thought for a while, and then suddenly remembered, and hurriedly saluted Xu Shijie: "Thank you uncle for your guidance, Li Er is clearing the clouds and seeing the blue sky, so, then I will go back and wait, as soon as there is news, please let my uncle let Huaiying inform me immediately, if there is really that day, uncle, you should remember a great merit, and when the time comes, don't say the location of the military department, even if it is Shangshu Province。。。。。。 ”

Xu Shijie also heard it with a hot heart, and hurriedly replied with a bow: "Thank you His Royal Highness King Qi for your kindness, and the officials have the courage to say a word, you and I should have more contacts, after all, Concubine Niangniang is also surnamed Xu." ”

Gu Li understood that this was the other party's hint that the Xu family would definitely help, so he was secretly excited at the moment, and hurriedly saluted again: "Then uncle, I will leave first." ”

Xu Shijie immediately stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Then the official will send His Royal Highness King Qi on the next trip." ”

---------------------------------------------

Yongzhou boundary, beautiful mountains and rivers, the terrain is magnificent and changeable, fantastical, more than the overflowing literati atmosphere of Jiangzhou, there are several different kinds of wild interest, and because there are many places of interest and famous mountains and rivers, so it has always been the literati and ink writers in the south, the place where they like to leave pen and ink works.

Yongzhou has always been rich, and because the national fortunes of the previous dynasty lasted for hundreds of years, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and were free from the war poison of the outside world, so the population of Yongzhou has always been extremely large, but it is a pity that it was finally taken by Taizu Gu Qiguang with a sweeping force, and now it has become a part of Daliang.

However, the old man of the former dynasty was not wiped out by the Liang army because of the fragmentation of his family and country.

This is actually normal, first of all, Da Liang is relying on brute force, the foreign occupation of the party, the control of this Yongzhou in a short period of time, naturally not as good as the previous dynasty royal family that has been painstakingly operated for hundreds of years, these people are bent on hiding to save their lives, plus Taizu was kind back then, and never sent someone to kill them all, so he was lucky to save a life.

These remnants are incognito, relying on the gold and silver taken away from the palace at the beginning, silently developing, and they have become some big families over the years, because they have spent a lot of effort to get out of a clean family background, plus they have put their posture very low over the years, and they have never made trouble for the court, but they have taken the initiative to entangle and integrate with the court, and many children of the family are officials in the court, so they have not been liquidated.

The Yongzhou Sijia has risen rapidly in the past few decades, and it is a well-known tyrant in Yongzhou.

In the dark room under the private house of the Si family, the lights are dim, from the front of the separate main seat, to the last guest seat, there are more than 30 people sitting, just look at the exposed hands, the skin is covered with old age spots, like an old tree in the forest, no blood, you know that they are all old people, many people are on crutches, sit down and cough non-stop, it seems that they are all about to die, but these people are the real heads of more than 30 families in Yongzhou, and they are the patriarchs who say nothing in the clan.

The ancestor of the Si family, that is, the descendants left by the remnants of the previous dynasty, sat on the main seat at this moment, and his whole face was hidden in the darkness around him, and the rest of the people were the same.

"Everyone, a God-given opportunity! God-given opportunity!" the old man tapped the floor tiles with the faucet in his hand, and shouted loudly, "Youzhou, Yanzhou, Haizhou, and the three states are all mired in the quagmire, and this is the only time for us to return to the country!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, one of the people below spoke: "But when I wait for the army, the troops are insufficient, so how can we talk about restoring the country?"

These remnants of the former dynasty, although they had the courage to continue to spread their branches in Yongzhou, but in the end they all became businessmen, even if they secretly raised private soldiers without telling the court, but in the face of the Yongzhou Army, one of the Nine Armies, even if the combat effectiveness ranked last among the Ninth Army, and the number was scarce, it was far inferior to the border army, but against them, they still occupied a great advantage.

Why was the former dynasty destroyed back then, wasn't it because it couldn't beat others?

The fist is the last word, and their ancestors have already learned this sentence a hundred years ago.

Someone said: "Actually, we only need to unite the gentry and wealthy businessmen from all over the country, the prince is upside down, cholera is common, and some new decrees are simply scraping flesh on us!"

When the others heard this, they all nodded thoughtfully, indeed, if it weren't for this, it is estimated that the number of people who came today would be at least half less, and many of the people present here were aroused by the idea of restoring the country because of their opposition to the new decree of the imperial court.

"But no, he still has to build the canal, work hard and lose money, has already made people everywhere resentful, don't say it's my Yongzhou, that is, Jiangzhou Haizhou, there are people against him, but I dare not speak out on weekdays, now at this time, as long as I wait for a shout, the mountains and the sea will inevitably respond, how can I not do it?"

"That's right, which dynasty and which generation, didn't rely on the support of the wealthy lords of the family? Now that kid dares to touch us? Hmph! Mao didn't grow up, but he was quite bold, this is perverse, the sky will destroy the cool country!"

"But that weapon doesn't have long eyes, do you want us old bones to storm the barracks?"

"Yes, these soldiers are the most loyal, and it is almost impossible for them to defect!"

The people below began to talk about it one by one, although some of them wanted to restore the country, and some of them were purely against the Daliang court, but when they mentioned the Yongzhou army, they were silent.

It's okay, but they don't do it, after all, their subordinates already have a huge family business, and their children and grandchildren are full, so why take such a big risk to rebel?

At this moment, the old man on the main seat suddenly coughed twice, and the people on both sides listened to it, and looked at the main seat in unison, and the sound of discussion gradually disappeared.

"Everyone is willing to gather here today, all of them have the intention to reproduce the grand scene of our dynasty, if our ancestors and ancestors have knowledge under the spring, they will also bless it, how can such a little thing become an obstacle? You don't have to worry! I have already made arrangements, after today, you only need to contact all parties, just wait for half a month, set up a banner, this matter will be successful! At that time, your descendants will be the founding meritorious service and should enjoy eternal wealth!"

When many people heard this, they all frowned, this old man, he didn't say it clearly, he only made a promise, and he wanted to let himself and others run away to take risks, so if it didn't work out in the end, wouldn't he be exterminated by the imperial court?

After all, any crime can be forgiven, but if you rebel, you have to destroy the nine clans!

The sum of those here, I'm afraid that they are older than the Xuanwu beasts in the legends of the South China Sea, they are all human spirits, how can they be confused by this eternal wealth and founding feats, and be used as a gunman by others?

After so many years in business, they don't see rabbits and eagles, and if they don't make it clear, who would run around so stupidly?

The old man saw that everyone under him was silent, and no one expressed his position, so he scolded secretly, and he had no choice but to give out part of the plan that should have been concealed in advance, and reassured the hearts of all old friends.

After a while, the old people who were shrouded in black hats all over their bodies secretly left from various secret passages, and the energy that dozens of families could use together was undoubtedly very huge.

And the same thing happened in the land of Jiangzhou and Haizhou, after all, compared to Yanzhou and Youzhou, the two war-torn places, Yongzhou, Jiangzhou, and Haizhou suffered the least, and under the deliberate promotion of some people, people who were instigated by desire were indispensable.

In this way, a big net against Da Liang and Gu Cang has been silently laid, and the undercurrent is surging, and it is about to explode!
