Chapter 404: Xia Chang'an proposes to move the capital
In the temporary residence of the general of Hanzhong, Zhao Shu held a document in one hand and lightly hit the wooden table with the other, and seemed to be quite undecided about what was said on the document. Eighty-one middle school? Wenwang ???.? 8?1?z??.? C?om Huan Yi stood aside with his hands down, his brows were also deeply locked, because he saw that Zhao Shuliang was silent for a long time, he stepped forward slightly, and said: "General, the imperial envoy is still outside the door, how to reply to what Wei Yan asked?" Zhao Shu didn't answer, just raised his eyes to look at Huan Yi and asked, "Did the eldest brother teach me?" Huan Yi thought about it for a while, and replied: "The matter of moving the capital is very important, how can Wei Yan make a decision alone?" He relied on his achievements in restoring the old capital, arrogant and domineering, and asked the general to dismiss it immediately and take heavy responsibility. ”
On the same day, Wei Yan used Zhao Shu's serious illness as an excuse to say that he collected his troops and returned to Hanzhong, but he led his men and horses to the west, went out of the Meridian Valley, and attacked Chang'an. Cao Wei's Chang'an's troops were all in Wancheng, but Xu Huang's 50,000 Bingzhou army confronted Wang Ping in the street pavilion, and he never thought that the Shu army would have such a strange army. Chang'an was empty, and it was broken by Wei Yan in one fell swoop, and Xu Huang had to retreat to Tongguan. Chang'an is the old capital of the Western Han Dynasty, which can be described as a symbol of the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty. Wei Yan himself thought that the merit of the world was nothing more than himself, and asked Liu Chan to move the capital from Chengdu to Chang'an, wanting to "restore the old capital, inspire the people of the Central Plains to think about the Han and rebel, and fight with Cao Rui, the lord of Wei."
Since Zhao Shu opened the palace as a general, the officials of the Shu Han Dynasty reported to the imperial court, and the chapters presented should be in duplicate, one to the palace Liu Chan, and the other to the general's mansion, which was decided by Zhao Shu. This time, Wei Yan didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, so he didn't inform Zhao Shu, and only sent an envoy to Chengdu. If it weren't for the fact that Jiang Wan and others in Chengdu knew that the matter was big and didn't dare to be arbitrary, they sent someone to send Wei Yanzuozhang to Hanzhong to listen to Zhao Shu's intentions, Zhao Shu was afraid that he would still be in the dark.
Wei Yan disobeyed the order and insisted on capturing Chang'an, Zhao Shu was a little unhappy in his heart, but he was already in the boat, and he didn't want to reprimand him too much, but he never expected Wei Yan to come out like this again. Chang'an has no danger to defend, Tongguan has Cao Wei's nearly 100,000 troops eyeing the tiger, if the Wancheng war is over, I am afraid that it will increase by no less than 200,000, and its strength is far superior to Shu Han. Chang'an is far less secure than Chengdu, which is located in the Sichuan Basin, where "Shu Road is difficult to go to the blue sky", and the land owned by Shu Han is dominated by Jingyi Erzhou, Chengdu is the political and economic center of Yizhou, and it is also more suitable as the capital of the Shu Han Empire. As a general who has been fighting for many years, Wei Yan should always have this overall vision, but he has such a seal, which inevitably makes people feel that he has ill intentions. Huan Yi was also very dissatisfied with Wei Yan's move, so he spoke to Zhao Shu and dismissed it with heavy responsibility.
Although Zhao Shu also had this idea in his heart, he was unwilling to openly turn his face with Wei Yan, so he had to say: "This discussion is most likely Jiang Wei's entry to Wen Chang, even if it is dedicated to Wen Chang, and the old capital is restored, it is also a heart of loyalty to the monarch and the country." It's better to reply to a good student, and the wording should not be too drastic. At this time, Wei Yan's entire army was in Chang'an, and Huan Yi could also understand Zhao Shu's difficulties, once he offended Wei Yan, God knows what this arrogant warrior would do. But if he repeatedly connived at Wei Yan, wouldn't he do something more out of the ordinary in the future? It is better to take this opportunity to reprimand a few more words, so as not to make an inch of Wei Yan, so Huan Yi wanted to speak to Zhao Shu again, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Ye Feng outside the door say: "General, there are envoys from the imperial court coming." ”
When this sensitive period came, Chengdu sent people to come again, Zhao Shu really felt a little related, and glanced at Huan Yi before he spoke: "Please." Not long after the words landed, I saw Ye Feng leading a civil official in. Zhao Shu also knew that it was Shang Shu's servant who shot Dong Ju. After the three of them saw the ceremony, they each took their seats, and Zhao Shunai asked: "Your envoy came from afar, I don't know if it is the will of His Majesty, or whether Jiang and Fei Ergong have a letter?" Dong Ju replied: "You are here with the edict of Your Majesty." ”
Zhao Shu then got up and exclaimed, "Why didn't your envoy say it earlier? Ye Feng said: "Prepare the incense case to receive the order." Although Zhao Shu almost had the final say in the entire Shu Han court, after all, Liu Chan was the supreme of the Ninth Five, and in front of outsiders, Zhao Shu still had to make a face that respected the emperor.
Ye Feng received the order and never left, but Dong Ju had already gotten up first, and said with a smile: "The general doesn't have to be like this. Although His Majesty has sent an edict, he has not used the treasure yet, but he just wants to hear the general's intentions, if the general has no objections. The lower officials will then return to Beijing, and after His Majesty uses the seal, he will promulgate the world. Although Dong Ju said the truth, Zhao Shu always felt a little harsh when he heard it in his ears, so he said humbly: "Why did your envoy say this? General Ben has returned to government and left Beijing to deal with the affairs of the DPRK and China, but it is enough to have Jiang and Fei Ergong to assist His Majesty. Why do you travel thousands of miles? ”
"What the general said?" Dong Ju also said: "The general is in a prominent position, how can he be indifferent to the affairs of the DPRK and China? As he spoke, he took out an edict from his arms, presented it to Zhao Shu with both hands, and replied: "Your Majesty has a will, but the general has objections, it can be revised immediately, and Your Majesty is not allowed." ”
In ancient times, only the emperor wrote edicts, how could there be any revision of edicts for the emperor? Liu Chan's words really made Zhao Shu unhappy, could this legendary idiot emperor have undergone chemical changes due to his own arrival, from a pig brain to a human brain? Cursing in his heart is one thing, Zhao Shuman took the edict respectfully, opened it carefully, and read it. After reading it in one breath, Zhao Shu's face did not change at all, but it was already burning inside, and anger was surging.
This edict is Liu Chan's merit of recovering the old capital with Wei Yanyou, and he is specially added as a hussar general, leading the Yongzhou assassin envoy, and the military affairs of Chang'an and Longxi counties. Since Zhao Shu came to lead the troops and horses with ten generals, no matter how high the merits of the generals are, they have never been awarded the honor of "military affairs of a certain place". Now Liu Chan openly weighted Wei Yan's promotion, the intention was obviously to check and balance Zhao Shu's power, and almost all of the troops of Shu and Han were now stationed in Hanzhong, Longxi, and Chang'an. If Wei Yan really had the power of the governor's two military affairs, wouldn't he have divided half of his troops? It is no wonder that Dong Juhui has repeatedly emphasized that Zhao Shu can change the content of the edict at will, and in Liu Chan's heart, he is very sure that Zhao Shu will not be satisfied with this edict, and he will definitely revise it. It's just that after Zhao Shu revised, when the news reached Wei Yan's ears in the future, he would naturally resent Zhao Shu's unfair rewards and punishments, and would even more oppose him. is a plan to kill two birds with one stone, and it is not really for Zhao Shujin to retreat, and he doesn't know how to deal with himself.
Dong Ju saw that although Zhao Shu still had a smile on his face, his eyebrows were already slightly wrinkled, and his eyes gradually revealed hatred, and he thought that he had a plan in his heart, so he stepped forward half a step forward and said: "If the general is not satisfied, you can say it bluntly, and the lower official will revise it." It's okay to reply......" Dong Ju originally said with a smile, but he didn't want Zhao Shu to suddenly raise his head, his eyes were sharp, and his heart couldn't help but tremble, and the word "Your Majesty" was far less smooth than Fang Cai.
