On the ninth day of October, a rain fell in Jianye City, bringing a chill to the bone, and Xiao Tong, the prince of Liang, died quietly on the bed.

Xiao Yan was so grief-stricken that on the fifteenth day of the boycott, he stayed in the Buddhist hall almost day and night, and thousands of monks and Taoist people in the entire Liang Kingdom came to build a business for the crown prince Xiao Tong.

Jianye City was noisy and dead silent for a while.

In order to protect the prince's witch case, the smell of blood seems to have not dissipated, and the prince has suffered misfortune, which makes people not be silent.

Luo Xianzhi sat in front of the window, looking at the still beautiful scenery outside the window, Jianye is not a cold and windy north, he was wrapped in a thick coat and was silent.

There are two men and one woman and three children playing in the house, Xie Daoyun snuggled up to Luo Xianzhi's side, the atmosphere was very warm, plain and happy, she reached out to smooth the wrinkles between Luo Xianzhi's eyebrows, but she didn't say anything comforting, just quietly hugged Luo Xianzhi, and bursts of incense spread to Luo Xianzhi's nose.

I don't know how long it took, Luo Xianzhi finally spoke up: "Madam, the prince is dead, what do you say you should do next as a husband before you can cultivate another prince." ”

Xie Daoyun pondered for a moment, and then said softly: "Husband, how to cultivate a prince, concubines don't understand, but our children are all raised and raised by concubines.

No matter what he learns, Cong'er is faster than Yuan'er, and this is where the talent gap between the two lies.

Cong'er can do bigger things, and Yuan'er probably needs to learn more.

If you ignore this distinction and force Yuan'er to do something smart, it will be a trivial matter, but it may cause a big mistake.

The concubine once heard her husband say that only the princes of His Majesty have a little talent, and the other sons are all stubborn and cannot achieve a great cause.

If it is forcibly created, it will only end up being destroyed by rotten wood.

Why don't you let go of the mind of cultivating the prince first, and then observe carefully, so the prince also has children, and if you can find good talents among them, wouldn't it be better? ”

There is an obsession in Luo Xian's heart, which is the common point of political strongmen, that is, what you want to do, you must do it, and even force it to do, Luo Xianzhi is undoubtedly a political strongman.

So the crown prince's heir?

It's just three people, can there be enough people to be the monarch to fight against Murong Chui?

Luo Xianzhi muttered, "It seems that it's time to speed up the division of the Yan Kingdom." ”

Counter-plotting.

The enduring strategy since ancient times, aimed at the human heart and human nature, is extremely useful for those mediocre and stupid kings, but it does not mean that it is useless for those wise monarchs, as long as a king has an abnormal desire for power and is not broad-minded enough, the result of the counter-strategy is doomed.

Emperor of the Yan Kingdom.

Luo Xianzhi's evaluation of him is "a middle-class talent", not very outstanding, not very rubbish, if Murong Ke is still there, such an emperor can almost maintain the territory.

But without Murong Ke, he already hated Murong Chui in his heart, and he only forcibly suppressed it for the sake of the great cause that Murong Ke said.

All Luo Xianzhi had to do was to hook out the jealousy and hatred of Murong Chui in the heart of Emperor Yan State, and if he reached this step, everything Murong Ke did would collapse.

Murong Ke and Luo Xianzhi are similar in this regard, but Dead Murong is naturally not the opponent of Living Xianzhi.

……

Under Luo Xianzhi's plan, the two countries of Yan and Liang went to war again, with Liang's Jiangzuo army fighting against the army of the Yan court on the eastern front, and the Jingchu army and Shuzhong's army fighting against Murong Chui on the western front.

The goal of the Yan court was to seize a large plain south of the Yellow River and north of Huaishui, and Murong Chui's goal was to seize the land of Heluo, which was better to attack than Shuzhong, after all, Guanzhong was condescending to Heluo, and Heluo was not as dangerous as Shuzhong.

Liang's goal is completely different.

After nearly two months of the war, the imperial army of Yan State was deeply trapped in the quagmire of Qingyan, and without Murong Ke, the god of war, Xiao Yan fought like a fish in water, on the other hand, Murong Chui, who fought on the Western Front, could only shrink and dare not show his head at all.

Luo Xianzhi thought that the time had come, so he wrote two letters to Emperor Yan and Murong Chui respectively in the tone of Emperor Xiao Yan.

The letter to the Emperor of Yan was very polite, "Emperor of Yan State, you have never had high prestige, nor have you a character worthy of amazement, because of the doubt in your heart, you killed your own important ministers, and now you lead the army to invade my Daliang and suffer defeat, isn't it doomed?"

I am the same emperor as you, this is my misfortune, if you still have a little face, you should immediately take off the crown on your head, respectfully kneel to the world, and say that you are not worthy of being the emperor.

Even if you are unwilling to abandon the foundation of the Murong clan and dedicate the foundation to me, then choosing a person from the Murong clan who is worthy of becoming my opponent is also what you should do, my opponent is a waste like you, this is a shameless thing on my face. ”

After reading this letter, the Emperor of Yan was so angry that he almost had a heart attack, he threw the letter at his feet viciously, and roared: "Xiao Yan deceives people too much, deceives people too much, I must kill him." ”

This letter was not only sent to the palace, but also spread throughout the Yan Kingdom, and was insulted and humiliated by the emperor of the enemy country like this, if he couldn't kill Xiao Yan, the emperor's face would be lost.

The servants were all silent, if they could kill the Emperor of Liang, it was time to call Emperor Yan the son of Zhu Xia.

The Emperor of Yan was angry, and he also knew that he couldn't kill Xiao Yan for the time being, so he said: "The so-called courtesy is still exchanged, reply to me, and scold that Xiao Yan again." ”

The emperor didn't react, the reason why Xiao Yan's letter was able to touch him and make him angry was not because of anything else, but because the Yan court was deflated at Xiao Yan's hands, in other words, Xiao Yan was able to despise him.

The loser has to accept these fingers.

Even if the Emperor of Yan really sent a letter to Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan would only smile, and even show it to others, and then laugh at Emperor Yan, all over his body, only his mouth was hard.

At this time, the emperor's close ministers, who were bribed by Luo Xianzhi, made an assist in a timely manner, and said gloomily: "Your Majesty, Xiao Yan also sent a letter to Murong Chui, which is said to be a letter asking for peace. ”

"Asking for peace letters? What is a sum letter? ”

"To return to Your Majesty is to ask for peace and letters."

"I know it's a peace letter, and what kind of peace letter I am asking."

Jinchen was a little confused, but still repeated: "It's a letter that wants to make peace with Murong Tuo." ”

Emperor Yan said angrily: "I know, I know, what is the content, why give it to Murong Chui!" ”

The close minister hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it out of his arms and presented it to the emperor: "Your Majesty, this letter was originally intended to be given to Murong Chui, but when the messenger sent the letter, he accidentally brought this letter and fell to the ground, and the minister saw it by chance. ”

The Emperor had opened the letter, which was nothing like the one he had given him before.

"King Yong's god is brave and natural, and I can't see an outstanding person like you in the world several times, although you are only a courtier of the Yan Kingdom, but I am willing to treat you with the etiquette of a king, which is my respect for you.

If the emperor of the Yan Kingdom is you, I'm afraid that my Daliang is no longer an opponent, which is a lucky thing.

I wanted to sign a peace agreement with King Yong, promising mutual non-aggression, and I would capture Qingzhou south of the Yellow River in Yan, while King Yong would attack Hedong, and I knew that there had been a discord between King Yong and Emperor Yan.

Even if it is not for himself, has King Yong discussed with his courtiers, I believe that those courtiers do not have the emperor of Yan in their hearts, they only obey your orders, as long as you give an order, even the emperor will kill you for you.

I am looking forward to the day when King Yong becomes the emperor of Yan, and the current emperor of Yan is on the same throne, it is simply a shame for me.

There is me in the south, and there is a king in the north! ”

Emperor Yan gritted his teeth, the green tendons on his hands burst out, his face turned red, and the flames in his heart almost burned everything, the handwriting of these two letters was the same, and it was written by Xiao Yan at a glance.

The close minister who presented the letter laughed wildly in his heart, now it depends on how you Murong Chui can seize power.

But some people also said: "Your Majesty, this is obviously the anti-plot of the Liang Kingdom, just to separate you and King Yong." ”

"Enough!"

Emperor Yan shouted angrily: "Which sentence in this letter is wrong?

Xiao Yan looks down on me, but he looks down on Murong Chui, is this fake?

Those courtiers in Kansai don't know what a monarch is in their hearts, is it fake?

Can Murong Chui control these people?

Murong Chui really didn't think of those things that he shouldn't think about in his heart? ”

This word-by-word questioning was like a hammer striking in everyone's hearts, no one dared to answer, and the hall was silent.

Xiao Yan is in the middle of the line, and the emperor is not stupid, but this is the most terrible thing, he knows what the other party is doing, but he still has to follow the rhythm of the other party, because what Xiao Yan said is right, and none of them are wrong.

There are many people who can say these words, if this is the case, it will naturally not reflect Luo Xianzhi's plan, Murong Ke had already expected this day and these reasons before he died.

The arrangement he made was based on the situation where the emperor was the main and Murong Trai was the alternate assistant, and the emperor was the sun and Murong Trai was the moon, the main and secondary were different, but none of them were indispensable.

The most important thing is the time and situation when Luo Xianzhi asked Xiao Yan to say these words.

In order to attack the prestige of the Yan Emperor, the Liang State used seventy percent of its strength on the Eastern Front, thus causing an imbalance between the emperor and Murong Chui.

In other words, at this stage, Murong Chui finally has some prestige on an equal footing with the emperor, and if this trend continues, coupled with Xiao Yan's letters, once the propaganda force is flipped over, it is likely to be in an instant.

There's an old saying that today is not the same as it used to be.

At the beginning, Guanzhong's strength was not as good as the imperial court, and Murong Chui's orthodoxy was not as good as the emperor, Guanzhong could accept the order arranged by Murong Ke, and when Murong Chui grew to an unimaginable level, and even the imperial court couldn't control him, would Guanzhong still accept the current order?

A courtier who is on an equal footing with the emperor, and there was a previous feud, the emperor of Yan felt his scalp tingle just thinking about it.

Luo Xianzhi stabbed a sword from Jianye City, and then stabbed it directly into the heart of the Emperor of Yan State, the name of this sword is called the Emperor's Suspiciousness.

……

Murong Chui naturally also received these two letters, Wang Meng, Yang Cheng and others naturally knew that this was a counter-plot, and Ming Huanghuang didn't even cover it up.

Murong Trai was silent for a moment, and then asked, "...... these two letters?"

Wang Meng and Yang Cheng glanced at each other, and then said in unison: "King Yong, you should have made a plan a long time ago." ”

Murong Trai asked in disbelief: "This is a counter-plot, can't the two of you see it?" Wouldn't it be ridiculous if the king knew that it was a plan and still fell for it? ”

Seeing that Murong Chui was still pretending, Wang Meng directly pierced and said: "The anti-plot is for both sides, King Yong, it is not enough for you to be unsuccessful, the emperor must also be unsuccessful, will the emperor not be successful?" ”

Yang Cheng answered: "The emperor will definitely be tricked."

No emperor can tolerate a courtier above his head, especially in the future, your prestige will be higher and higher, and the emperor will be lower and lower, and even the clan will support you. ”

Murong Chui is not stupid, of course he knows, but he has more concerns, and said in a deep voice: "Is there no way to solve this problem, just watch the Liang State split my Dayan, if my Dayan splits, is it difficult to give up this world?"

If you want to destroy my Dayan foundation to achieve the success of my Murong Chui, that is what this king is unwilling, a hundred years ago, how could this king have the face to see his father and brother? ”

Wang Meng's eyes flashed and he said: "King, the minister thinks that you are really too worried, the prince of Liang has passed away, and now Liang has not set a new prince, this battle for the throne is more important than everything."

The emperor and the king are not on good terms because of the throne, can the Liang State be out of the ordinary?

The internal fight must be the same.

It is enough for the king to follow the rules and wait for His Majesty the Emperor to make a mistake and disperse the hearts of the people, and at that time, our army will attack Hedong with lightning speed, and even seize the annexed states.

As long as our army is strong enough not to drag the civil war into the grave, where will there be any danger of destroying Dayan? ”

Murong Chui was relieved when he heard that he didn't have to take the initiative to rebel, threw down the letter in his hand, and sighed, he only felt a dilemma, and he didn't know what to do.

……

These two letters caused a great turmoil in the Yan Kingdom, and countless rumors released by Luo Xianzhi filled the land of the Yan Kingdom.

Something like - "Da Yanxing, King Yongzhu!" ”

This kind of language is endless, and it makes people feel panicked.

At the imperial meeting, the ministers had begun to impeach Murong Trai and take back his privileges.

The Emperor of Yan was most worried not about Murong Trai, but about the other Murong clan kings, and he was very skeptical that the other sect kings would directly welcome Murong Trai back.

Because of the war in Qingzhou, Yan Guo lost two small battles, and King Zong, as the main force, naturally had some dissatisfaction with him.

The public said: Those who are worried about the king attack the strong, and the weak and strong ministers; Those who are worried about the outside attack the weak and strengthen the king's authority; Today, Emperor Yan is worried about Murong and Louis outside, and he is worried about the beam, so that he will be weak, so that Yanchen will become stronger; Attack Emperor Yan with force, so that Emperor Yan is weaker; The lord is weak and the minister is strong, and the rebellion of the Yan Kingdom can be seen. - "The World Speaks New Words: Strategy"
