Chapter 405: Ming's promotion is actually a separation of powers

Huan Yi listened to Dong Ju on the side, and he had long felt that something was wrong, and when Zhao Shu was silent for a while, he gently moved behind him and glanced at the content of the edict. If you don't look at it, you will be angry, and then listen to Dong Ju's noisy tongue in front of you, but shout: "This time to enter Chang'an, there is the great general's strategizing work, and the strength of the soldiers to fight to the death, how can Wei Yan be the merit of one person?" Your Majesty is so generously rewarded, doesn't it make the soldiers of the three armies feel cold? Dong Ju was also a little scared when he saw that Huan was easy to behave, but after all, he was an angel, so he reprimanded: "This official is discussing with the general by the emperor's order, and it is not for the general to get involved." Huan Yi had some worries in his heart these days, and when he heard Dong Ju speak like this, he stepped forward and said angrily: "When I fought to the death with the general, where was you?" Even if we can enjoy the title of knight in the court today, it is also the merit of our conquest. How dare you speak such wild words? "I'm going to arrest Dong Ju.

"Stop." Although Zhao Shu was also deeply annoyed by Dong Ju at the moment, the other party was an envoy sent by Liu Chan after all. The matter of forcing the palace to force the queen to death was easily settled, and Zhao Shu didn't want to bear the charge of humiliating and beating the angel anymore, so he immediately opened his mouth to stop Huan Yi, and replied to Dong Ju: "General Huan has a straightforward temperament, offended the noble envoy, and I hope that the noble envoy will not blame." ”

Dong Ju was not an official in the court for a day or two, and he had a particularly deep memory of Zhang Shaomanmen's death. Seeing that Huan Yi was angry, Dong Ju thought that he could not be spared, but he didn't expect that Zhao Shu was far more polite than Huan Yi. Although he wanted to break himself into thousands of pieces in his heart, he was still polite on the surface, and he deserved to be the first powerful minister today. Since he was able to immortalize, Dong Ju returned to the topic of Fang Cai and asked, "Does the general have any objections to His Majesty's edict?" ”

Huan Yi heard him ask again, and was about to attack again, but was stopped by Zhao Shu's eyes. But seeing Zhao Shu pacing slowly a few steps, he suddenly turned around and said, "Yes." This answer seemed to be expected by Dong Ju, so he continued to ask: "Please make it clear to the general." Zhao Shu laughed secretly in his heart, and said: "Wei Zhenbei conquered Chang'an and recovered the old capital, this world-famous miracle deserves this heavy reward." As he spoke, he said to Dong Ju: "There is an annoying envoy to write down what the general has played and forward it to Your Majesty." ”

Dong Ju had to take the four treasures of the study, spread them out, and said, "General, please speak." Zhao Shu said: "Promote Wei Yan to the general of the hussars, change the title of Marquis of Chang'an, lead the Yongzhou assassin envoy, and the governor of Yongzhou military affairs." After saying a word, Dong Ju didn't dare to put pen to paper, originally thought that Zhao Shu was not satisfied with the reward for Wei Yan in Liu Chan's edict, but he never thought that what came out of Zhao Shu's own mouth was actually more generous than the original edict, and he actually gave Chang'an to Wei Yan as a fief. It wasn't until Zhao Shu opened his mouth to urge that Dong Ju suspiciously recorded every word of Zhao Shu's words.

Zhao Shu saw that he finished writing, so he said again: "General Huan Yi of Anhan, fought from the general, made several miraculous achievements, specially added the title of Marquis, led the envoy of Qinzhou, and supervised the military affairs of Qinzhou. Dong Ju felt that he had misheard it at this moment, so he interrupted Zhao Shu and asked, "Dare to ask the general, where is Qinzhou?" Zhao Shu smiled slightly, and said: "Longxi and Tianshui counties are located in a remote area, near Qiangrong in the west, and Caowei Liangzhou in the north. Its place is the land of Qin, so it is called 'Qinzhou'. ”

Although Shu Han occupied Chang'an, the cities and counties to the west and north were still in the hands of Cao Wei. Dong Ju never expected Zhao Shu to come to such a hand, he was dumbfounded, shocked, and couldn't help but secretly admire Zhao Shu's quick wit. not only allowed Wei Yan to rise to the ranks, but did not increase his power, and solved the problem set by Liu Chan in a short time, which really shocked Dong Ju's heart. can't help but secretly think about what kind of consequences will be after such a powerful character is guilty? Thinking of the tragic death of Zhang Shao's family, Dong Ju only felt cold sweat on his forehead, and his right hand holding the pen trembled slightly, and a little bit of ink dripped messily on the white paper.

When Zhao Shu saw Dong Ju so embarrassed, he felt angry, and said to Ye Feng: "Replace a blank piece of paper for Lord Angel." After Ye Feng received the order to change, Dong Ju wiped the cold sweat on his forehead while writing with a pen, and because he was quite nervous in his heart, he actually changed the blank paper two or three times before recording Zhao Shu's words. After writing, Dong Ju felt that he did not dare to stay for a long time, so he bowed and said goodbye. Zhao Shu didn't keep it, and ordered Ye Feng to send off the guests on his behalf.

When the two of them walked to the door, Dong Ju seemed to remember something again, so he turned around and asked, "I don't know what the general thinks about Wei Zhenbei's request to move the capital?" You might as well let the lower officials bring it back to Beijing and transfer it to the imperial court. Zhao Shu didn't answer when he heard him ask, but just glared at Dong Ju coldly and said, "Send off." Ye Feng took two quick steps, stretched out his hand and said, "My lord, please come here." Dong Ju heard Zhao Shu's stiff tone, so he didn't dare to ask again, but went out with Ye Feng and left.

Huan Yi waited for the two to leave, and then couldn't help but say: "Such a will of the imperial court is nothing more than to weaken the authority in the hands of the general, which shows that Your Majesty's suspicion of the general is getting deeper and deeper." The general still made a plan for a long time, and could no longer be slaughtered as before. Zhao Shu smiled faintly and said, "Big brother thinks I will be the one who can be slaughtered?" As he spoke, he held Huan Yi's hand again and said, "The eldest brother and I are the same body, one is prosperous, and the other is lost." This trip to Longxi, although the distance is not very far, but the road is difficult, the news may be inconvenient, the eldest brother should be careful in the other, for me to share the worries. ”

Although Zhao Shu is in a high position, there are not many confidants, such as Ye Feng and others have no generals, Guo Huai is far away in Jingzhou, Wei Yan is so repeated, and now only Huan Yi is around to support big things, and what he says is from the bottom of his heart. Huan Yi also knew that Zhao Shu was looking at the scenery on the surface of Chaozhong at this moment, but in fact he was walking on thin ice. Jiang Wan, Fei Yi and others in the court were bent on maintaining the orthodoxy of the Han dynasty, Wei Yan of Chang'an became more and more alienated from Zhao Shu, and Emperor Liu Chan seemed to be actively preparing to reclaim his authority. Although there is no threat at the moment, the world is unpredictable, who knows what new problems will appear in front of the two tomorrow? Huan Yi originally wanted to stay in Hanzhong and assist Zhao Shu, but who could the counties of Longxi be handed over? I had to sigh lightly and said, "The general treats a certain brother as a certain person, how can such and such not repay him with death?" Longxi counties, but pay in a certain place, if there is a mistake, you will come to see. It's just that a certain person went to Longxi, and there was one less person around the general, so he had to be more careful in everything, and if he had to be ruthless, he must not be merciful. ”

Zhao Shu nodded and said, "Brother Xie's teaching, you must keep it in mind in the future." As the saying goes, the country is easy to change, but the temperament is difficult to change, Huan Yi knows that Zhao Shu is tolerant by nature, and he always has to leave three points of leeway in case of trouble, so he said: "In this case, how should Wei Yan reply to the matter of moving the capital?" Zhao Shu smiled and said, "I have already replied, don't you know, eldest brother?" ”

Huan Yi was stunned, and then understood what Zhao Shu meant. Since ancient times, the country has been a king and a prince, how can there ever be a fief who has used the old capital as a fief? Zhao Shu deliberately renamed Wei Yan as the Marquis of Chang'an, which is what he meant. is not only to commend Wei Yan, but also to reply to him, don't mention the matter of moving the capital. It's just that I don't know if Wei Yan can understand Zhao Shu's good intentions, if he still doesn't repent, will Zhao Shu tolerate it again? Huan Yi looked at Zhao Shu and suddenly said, "Jiang Weijiu is by Wei Yan's side, there is always something inconvenient, why doesn't the general transfer the two apart?" ”

Zhao Shu didn't think like this, but since Jiang Wei followed Wei Yan, even if he issued the order, he was afraid that the two of them would just find an excuse and pass it off. But Jiang Wei acted like this, and Zhao Shu still had to give him a warning, so he said: "After the eldest brother goes down, you can send someone to send an order to promote Jiang Wei to join the army as a general, and transfer him to Hanzhong to listen to it." Even if he refuses to obey orders, he should be self-aware and restrained. ”

After Huan Yi received it, he wanted to say goodbye and leave. Zhao Shu stopped him again and asked, "Big brother is going to Longxi in a few days, can you consider the things you mentioned the day before yesterday?" Huan Yi's face suddenly looked a little uncomfortable, and he hesitated for a long time, not knowing how to answer. Zhao Shu said again: "Princess Meng has come to ask me several times about this matter, if the eldest brother does not reply, I am afraid that His Royal Highness will return to the south in anger, and the eldest brother will regret it." ”

Huan Yi sighed and said, "What a certain person thinks in his heart, the general knows it very well, why bother forcing me like this?" Princess Meng is just grateful for my rescue, and Huan is the one who asks for revenge? If he refuses to agree to this family business, he is also afraid that His Highness will regret it in the future, how can he mistake his life. ”

Huan Yi's thoughts, Zhao Shu also quite understood, but since the army returned to Hanzhong, Meng Qian had come to find him several times, and his intention was very strong, and it was not expected to be impulsive, so he was willing to take this errand. But Huan Yi repeatedly refused, which made Zhao Shu a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to persuade him, so he saw Meng Qian slowly walking in from outside the door, and seemed to hear what Huan Yi said, and the expression on his face was very annoyed.

Zhao Shu knew that this princess had a bad temper, but he was afraid that the city gate would catch fire and affect the pond fish, so he hurriedly saluted and said: "I don't know that Your Highness is here, and I will miss the welcome." Meng Qian returned the salute, and Zhao Shu said again: "The two of you talk slowly, I will avoid it for a while." He wanted to leave, but he heard Meng Qian say: "Brother doesn't have to avoid it, my little sister only has two words to tell General Huan." While speaking, his eyes were staring directly at Huan Yi.

Huan Yi didn't dare to face Meng Qian's gaze, bowed his head and said, "I am willing to be instructed by His Highness." Meng Qian snorted coldly, and said: "First sentence, Huan Yi, you are just an out-and-out coward, and you don't even dare to accept the person you like; Second, do you know that even though you saved me, why didn't I save you? Snake venom entrance, if I hadn't found some antidote herbs and fed you with my mouth, would you have been able to hold on until Ye Feng and the others rescued you? I have a skin-to-skin relationship with you, how can I marry someone else? If I marry you, how can I regret it, you are not a woman of the Han family, so you are so unbearable? ”

"I didn't mean to." Huan Yi originally had some eloquence, but he always looked very wooden in front of Meng Qian, raised his head and said: "Your Highness can't be misunderstood, I ......" said a few "I" one after another, but there was never a reason to come. was so anxious that Zhao Shu was beside him, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the hero was sad to pass the beauty pass.

Meng Qian then ignored Huan Yi and turned to Zhao Shu and said, "Big brother, little sister will leave." Zhao Shu heard that her tone was not good, but asked, "Where is Your Highness going?" Meng Qian replied coldly: "Naturally, I am going back to the south, is it so insulted by people here?" Then he turned and went out the door. Zhao Shu saw that Huan Yi was still on the side, and couldn't help but stomp his feet and said, "You still don't want to chase it?" Huan Yi said "oh", and then he suddenly realized that he hurriedly chased out.
