The sky darkened little by little, and Liu Feng, who had been closed for many days, did not borrow wine in the house to drown his sorrows as ordinary people thought.

Just some time ago, Liu Feng surprised everyone and gave Liu Chan a recital.

The content of the recital is not complicated, that is, it asks Liu Chan to abolish the protection of the Western Regions and set up princes and kings to guard the Western Regions.

Perhaps in the eyes of the King of Cheshi, this recital can be said to be Liu Feng digging their roots.

But what King Cheshi didn't know was that when this recital spread from Shangshutai, it caused an uproar in the government and the opposition.

The position of the protector of the Western Regions was established since the period of Emperor Xiaoxuan, and for hundreds of years, it can be said that the establishment of the protector of the Western Regions is also one of the many ancestral systems of the Han Dynasty.

Not to mention for the time being, how much benefit the matter of "abolishing the protection of the king" can bring to the Han Dynasty, the four words "violating the ancestral system" alone are enough to stir the nerves of many Han ministers.

Of course, since Liu Bei became emperor, there have been many changes to the ancestral system in the Han Dynasty, but the promoters of those changes are either Mi Yang, who has won the world, or Zhuge Liang, who has the grace of reinvention in the Han Dynasty.

In addition, behind the two of them, they often have the support of Liu Bei, so the matter of changing the ancestral system proposed by the two of them, even if they are unwilling in their hearts, many ministers can't oppose it on the surface.

But the question is, can Liu Feng be compared with Mi Yang and Zhuge Liang?

That's a never-ending no.

There is another doubt that Liu Feng is the eldest son of the first emperor, as long as he does not make any big mistakes, Liu Chan will one day crown Liu Feng as the prince in order to show the brotherhood in the royal family to the people of the world.

In this predictable situation, Liu Feng still braved the disapproval to propose the "abolition of the king", which is really difficult not to make people doubt his intentions.

In the past few days, many courtiers have also used the above two doubts to constantly criticize Liu Feng.

Under the constant criticism of many courtiers, Liu Feng could only choose to close his door and gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.

And Liu Feng's retreat was also regarded by others as a signal of his frustration and giving up.

But what others don't know is that Liu Feng's recent situation is exactly the opposite of what they think.

Under the dim light in the room, Liu Fengzheng looked intently at a map on the bookcase in front of him.

This map depicts the entire Western Regions.

The Western Regions are vast and vast, and the map is too small to clearly depict every landform in the Western Regions.

But despite this, Liu Feng's gaze at the map was still full of heat.

He remembered what Mi Yang had promised him before, and he also believed that with Mi Yang's means, the matter of "abolishing the King of Protection" would definitely follow.

Just when Liu Feng was imagining infinitely in his heart, a hurried footstep outside the door attracted his attention.

"General, Da Sima ordered someone to be invited."

It was Liu Feng's personal guard who came, and his voice was very low.

But after hearing this, Liu Feng stood up suddenly.

He's endured so much criticism lately, and even made a move behind closed doors, and he's been waiting for that sentence.

"Tell the caller, I'll go right away."

Under Liu Feng's deep voice, there was a bit of undisguised restlessness.

...

Mi Yang didn't wait long.

About half an hour later, Liu Feng walked into the lobby where he was under the leadership of a subordinate.

Facing Liu Feng's visit, Mi Yang asked him to sit down first.

And after Liu Feng sat down, Jiang Ji willingly informed Liu Feng of the information he had discovered.

Liu Feng, who had just sat down, learned that the envoys of the Western Regions were plotting.

Like Mi Yang, after hearing the thoughts of the envoys of the Western Regions for the first time, Liu Feng laughed directly.

This one was a mockery.

But then Liu Feng let out a relieved laugh.

Maybe the envoys of the Western Regions seemed to Liu Feng to be quite stupid, but their stupidity happened to do him a great favor.

And after two laughs, Liu Feng also knew that Mi Yang would summon him tonight.

Thinking of this, Liu Feng didn't hesitate for a moment, he quickly got up and bowed to Mi Yang who was seated and said:

"The minister is willing to take the head of the great Sima Ma as the leader!"

Liu Feng did not rashly ask for orders, and wanted to quell the rebellion that was brewing among the envoys of the Western Regions, and he first clearly expressed his attitude to Mi Yang.

Because Liu Feng knew that in the next rebellion of the envoys of the Western Regions, what kind of benefits he could gain was completely in Mi Yang's thoughts.

Liu Feng's obedience was beyond Jiang Ji's expectations.

Because long before Jiang Ji joined Mi Yang, he had heard of Liu Feng's fierce reputation.

And Liu Feng's current performance does not match his fierce reputation!

It is normal for Jiang Ji to have this question in his heart, after all, he joined the service late and has not seen some of the past.

When he was in the street pavilion, Mi Yang came to the street pavilion without revealing the wind.

At that time, Mi Yang had not yet taken out Liu Bei's edict, but just by making an appearance, he easily took away the military power in Liu Feng's hands.

And the spectacular picture of Mi Yang on the high platform that day, receiving the sincere support of tens of thousands of Han soldiers, was reflected in Liu Feng's mind and always lingered.

Fierce is fierce, but this does not mean that Liu Feng is a fool.

After seeing Liu Feng's obedient appearance, Mi Yang did not express his position immediately.

He stretched out his hand and motioned for Liu Feng to come closer to him.

Under Mi Yang's gesture, even though Liu Feng had some doubts in his heart, he still obediently took a few steps towards Mi Yang's place.

In this way, the distance between Mi Yang and Liu Feng is no longer so far.

And this distance can also allow Mi Yang to see the look on Liu Feng's face more clearly.

Looking at Liu Feng with a respectful look on his face, Mi Yang bent forward and asked with a smile:

"Do you really want to be in the Western Regions and become the king of the Ripping Soil?"

Mi Yang's words were like a thunderbolt exploding in Liu Feng's ears.

Liu Feng, who was seen through the deepest desire in his heart, suddenly had a look of panic on his face.

He hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Mi Yang's gaze.

But despite what he did, he still felt that Mi Yang's gaze was getting hotter and hotter.

That fiery gaze was like roasting him dry.

"Minister, minister don't dare."

After a long time, Liu Feng could only stutter out this pale sentence.

Can't?

As a member of the royal family, who doesn't want to tear the earth and seal the king.

Liu Feng's answer was not enough for Mi Yang to accept it.

However, compared to selflessness, Mi Yang prefers to use selfish people.

"You should know that there was a dispute between you and Your Majesty back then."

During the Battle of Xiangfan that year, Liu Feng ignored Guan Yu's orders and resolutely refused to send troops to support, and what he reported was the idea of raising troops for self-respect.

And why it is necessary to raise soldiers for self-respect, anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

What's more, the title of a deputy army general, in the name of Liu Bei's stepson, even if Liu Feng has never raised troops for self-respect, he can't escape the suspicion of "fighting for heirs".

After all, in terms of etiquette, Liu Feng is Liu Bei's eldest son, which is a recognized fact.

And the reason why Liu Chan became the prince back then was because he was just a son-in-law.

Mi Yang's slightly heavy tone made Liu Feng's panic in his heart a little more.

"You should also know that many people in the government and the opposition have quite a lot of opinions about you."

Mi Yang's words were even more ruthlessly revealed, Liu Feng was in an embarrassing situation in Dahan right now.

Due to the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, the Han family has had a tradition of suppressing the clan since Emperor Xiaowu.

Except for the Son of Heaven, it is best for other clan members to have no talent and no virtue, and just retire in the fiefdom.

But Liu Feng is just a talented person.

The important thing is that when Liu Bei was alive, Liu Feng, who was loved by Liu Bei, was fierce

's personality caused him a lot of trouble.

Not to mention anything else, in the past of the Xiangfan War, Liu Feng directly offended the ministers of the Yuancong Department and the Jingzhou Department.

Because of this, the courtiers' attacks on Liu Feng this time were so fierce.

If it weren't for Mi Yang maneuvering in secret, even if Liu Feng wanted to shut up, how could it be so easy?

Mi Yang's two factual words directly stimulated the panic in Liu Feng's heart to the maximum, and at this time he didn't know what to say.

"Minister, minister is afraid."

At this moment, where did Liu Feng dare to look forward to some of the things that he didn't have, and the power exuded from Mi Yang's body overwhelmed him.

Now Liu Feng only hopes that he can spend tonight's meeting safely.

And just when Liu Feng thought that Mi Yang's next sentence was to continue to deter him, Mi Yang suddenly changed his words and said with a smile:

"But when the first emperor was alive, he asked Gu to take good care of you."

Mi Yang's words crossed Liu Feng's face like a spring breeze, and while gradually calming down Liu Feng's inner panic, it also made Liu Feng raise his head and look at Mi Yang in surprise.

And when Liu Feng's gaze touched Mi Yang's deep eyes, Liu Feng suddenly realized why Mi Yang wanted to tell him this.

Mi Yang wanted to tell him one thing: At present, he is the only one in the government and the opposition who has the heart and ability to protect himself.

As for what Liu Feng will think in his heart after learning this meaning?

Liu Feng, who didn't dare to resist Mi Yang in his heart, quickly weighed the pros and cons in his heart, and his whole head was directly put to the lowest in front of Mi Yang.

"Feng, you will swear to death and dare not disobey Da Sima."

Compared with Fang Cai's sentence "The horse's head is looking forward", Liu Feng's current sentence "I dare not disobey to die" seems to have more weight.

And this is also a sentence that Mi Yang really wants.

Mi Yang, who got this sentence, immediately burst out laughing.

He stretched out his hand and patted Liu Feng's shoulder and said:

"Because you are often suspicious of the envoys of the Western Regions in your heart, you have secretly sent people to inquire about the movements of the envoys of the Western Regions at all times.

Only by investigating can you discover the movements of the envoys of the Western Regions in time, so that you can lead the army to suppress them smoothly when they make trouble."

"This will be a record in the history books in the future, and I hope that in the future, you will explain it to the courtiers and the people of the world in the future!"

"How?"

Mi Yang seemed to be asking Liu Feng's opinion, but Liu Feng knew that at this point, he had only one answer:

"Command, command!"

After getting Liu Feng's reply, Mi Yang waved his hand and said, "Go back and prepare."

"Someone will help you tomorrow."

Under Mi Yang's words, Liu Feng left the lobby with mixed feelings.

And after Liu Feng's figure disappeared, Jiang Ji got up and asked Mi Yang:

"Thousands of miles away from the Western Regions, General Liu has a fierce personality, and I am afraid that there is no one outside Sima to control him."

In Jiang Ji's opinion, Mi Yang wants to beat Liu Feng like this tonight, in order to put Liu Feng in the Western Regions to be crowned king in the future.

But Jiang Ji felt that there were still risks in this move.

And for Jiang Ji's worries, why didn't Mi Yang know?

It's just that there are pros and cons to everything.

In Mi Yang's view, as long as the division is famous, with the current military strength of the Han army, it is not difficult to take the Western Regions.

But it is easy to take the Western Regions, but it is not easy to govern the Western Regions well and completely turn the Western Regions into a part of China.

The best way to do this is to learn from our ancestors.

At that time, Jingzhou and Yangzhou could be regarded as foreign places, and the customs, language, and customs were very different from those of the Central Plains.

But today, although Jingzhou and Yangzhou are still different from the Central Plains in some aspects, the people of the two states have already regarded themselves as part of China in their hearts.

And what caused this change was the princes and kings who were divided by Liu Bang in the early Han Dynasty.

Those princes and kings are not necessarily virtuous people, but for their own interests, after arriving in the fiefdom, they will do everything in their power to slowly assimilate the local people.

This kind of subjective initiative is unique to princes and kings, and no minister possesses it.

Don't underestimate a person's subjective initiative, especially when that person's subjective initiative will be supported by strong military strength.

A good policy should not be buried, and in order for this good policy to play its due role, the first candidate for the princes and kings sent to the Western Regions must be cautious.

Of course, in fact, Mi Yang didn't have a choice.

Liu Chan's heirs have not yet been born, and his two younger brothers are too young, picking and choosing, Mi Yang's eyes can only be on Liu Feng.

Putting aside Liu Feng's character, his personal military ability can greatly benefit Mi Yang's ideal of "turning a domain into a state".

As for Jiang Ji's worries, Mi Yang will not sit idly by.

"It's okay.

If there is loneliness for a day, he will not dare to have two hearts.

Besides, Lone never promised him that he could be hereditary in the Western Regions."

What Mi Yang wants is to turn the domain into a state, not to turn the domain into a country or a country, but just a transition.

After hearing Mi Yang's last sentence, Jiang Ji relieved his heart.

As long as Liu Feng does not inherit and forms an unbreakable foundation of power in the Western Regions, then the risk that Liu Feng can cause to the central government is basically negligible.

"Great Sima Yingming."

...

The time soon came to the evening of the second day.

When night fell, Zhang Wen and Zhou Yi, who lived in the Sifang Pavilion, suddenly felt some heart palpitations.

It was as if in the dark of night, there was a force that was gathering momentum, intent on disrupting them.

Of course, the reason why Zhang Wen and Zhou Yi feel this way is not that they will be unpredictable, but purely because they lack a sense of security in the Sifang Pavilion.

Originally, when they set off from Jiangdong, they were accompanied by more than 100 guards, but those guards had to be left behind in Liu Yin's greeting before, and now Zhang Wen and Zhou Yi were only around them.

Being in the enemy's capital, the guards around you are extremely weak, and anyone facing this situation will feel uneasy.

The rich night invisibly deepened the uneasiness in their hearts.

What Zhang Wen and Zhou Yi didn't know was that their instincts were right.

Because in a courtyard not far from them, more than 100 guards were swearing in style.

"I must take the head of Wu Dog tonight!"
