Inside the stone pavilion, Li Xuan's words that seemed to be smiling but not smiling made the atmosphere in the pavilion tense again.

Yuan Chao straightened up slightly, and said with a gentle expression: "The general matter is gone, the others are mostly personal matters, as long as the previous Tianyin Sect generals agree, the next step is to surrender to the sincerity......"

Speaking of this, Yuan Chao looked at Li Xuan and asked: "If the surrender is successful, I don't know if the imperial court can issue an order to no longer investigate the people's crimes of being thieves, after all, after Chen Shuozhen, the people of Muzhou have a lot of difficult lives, and they are a little worried......

Li Xuan waved his hand directly, and said very firmly: "The things of the year will not happen again, after all, the things of the year, the real master, it is still Zhao Guogong and the Duke of Henan County, Your Majesty is benevolent and loves the people, and imitates Yao Shun, so it will not happen again." ”

Yuan Chao's eyebrows were immediately raised.

Zhao Guogong is naturally the eldest grandson Wuji, and the county prince of Henan is Chu Suiliang, and it was the two of them who were in charge when the incident happened.

With a single sentence, Li Xuan put all the blame on the two dead people.

But if this is really the case, then why has the imperial court's harsh administration of Muzhou not changed for more than ten years after that.

"Your Majesty is magnanimous," Yuan Chao bowed his hand slightly in the direction of the Shendu, and then looked at Li Xuan, and said helplessly: "The lower officials naturally know Your Majesty's heart, but the foolish people and foolish women of the Tianyin Sect, after all, they are worried about this matter, I don't know if the imperial court can appease the people and cut off their worries, after all, the Tianyin Sect has a very large number in Muzhou, otherwise it will be peaceful today, and it will rebel again tomorrow, so repeatedly, how can there be a whole day." ”

Li Xuan glanced at Yuan Chao, and then turned his head to look at Yao Zhi, they didn't understand why Yuan Chao kept emphasizing this.

Yuan Chao has never been an official who worries about the country and the people, on the contrary, he is very selfish.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Xuan said: "The disposition of the Tianyin Sect, the center has a comprehensive consideration, and this king will try his best to persuade Duan Dudu to play with this king, and ask His Majesty and the center to forgive the people's acts of being thieves, and then make a clear announcement to the world." ”

"Thank you so much, if all the sins of the thieves he waited for here can be forgiven, then the lower officials will not insist on anything anymore." After Yuan Chao finished speaking, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Li Xuan and Yao Zhi glanced at each other, and they finally understood what Yuan Chao was talking about.

"Have you ever thought about yourself, sir?" Li Xuan slowly sat up straight, and today's negotiation finally touched the core issue.

Yuan Chao's own processing results.

Before the Muzhou Incident, Yuan Chao joined the army as a soldier of Muzhou, and Shi Xu was controlled by the Tianyin Sect, so Yuan Chao voted for the Tianyin Sect.

In order to pull Yuan Chao, the Tianyin Sect also recommended him as the Sima of Muzhou in the name of historical history, and the imperial court also allowed it.

It's a pity that before the appointment of the imperial court was made, the Tianyin Sect had already started an incident.

Looking at the solemn eyes of Li Xuan and Yao Zhi, Yuan Chao shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Xiaguan is not an ignorant person, Xiaguan is guilty, and the crime is unforgivable. ”

In the entire stone pavilion, the sound of the wind stopped in an instant.

Li Xuan lowered her eyebrows, don't look at Yuan Chao's pitiful words, but everyone understands that the real difficulty of these water armies in front of him is on Yuan Chao's body.

Once Yuan Chao's matter is not resolved, then everything about the two thousand sailors and the two thousand foot soldiers before will be empty talk.

Now the Hangzhou sailors can't pull out their hands, and Li Xuan's manpower can only hold Sanhe Pass at most.

It is reasonable to want to pacify Muzhou as quickly as possible, forgive Yuan Chao's guilt, and even reward him with many rewards.

Li Xuan raised his head, chuckled and said: "Mr. Yuan doesn't have to worry so much, Your Majesty is broad-minded and carries all things, Mr. will set things right at a critical moment, Your Majesty will definitely reward him, and when the time comes, an uncle will definitely be indispensable...... As for the specific position, let alone me waiting, even His Majesty may not be able to determine it, that is the power and responsibility of the three central provinces and the ministry. ”

Yuan Chao nodded, he knew that what Li Xuan said was true, but there were some things, if they were not settled now, then it would be even more difficult in the future.

After a little hesitation, Yuan Chao opened his mouth and said: "Xia Guan knows that he is deeply guilty, and he doesn't dare to have too many delusions, I just hope that after this incident, Xia Guan can retire in Wuyue safely, and I don't want anything else." ”

"This king will play together with Duan Dudu." Speaking of this, Li Xuan couldn't help laughing, looked at Yuan Chao and said: "Actually, only Mr. led everyone to Muzhou City, and then broke the Tianyin rebels, not to mention that he was able to retire safely, even the state Sima, the state assassin history, it may not be impossible, Mr. has to seize the opportunity." ”

"What the prince said is extremely true!" Yuan Chao immediately stood up.

Today's Tianyin Sect, although it has suffered heavy losses under Li Xuan's hands, it is not a Jedi.

The Tianyin Sect Leader Empress Yu also led an army of 10,000 to attack Shezhou, even though Li Xuan has now divided his troops to Muzhou, but Empress Yu still hasn't looked back.

It is true that Muzhou is the foundation of the Tianyin Sect, but now, all the troops mobilized by the Tianyin Sect in Muzhou have been mobilized, and they don't expect Muzhou to have much backup at all, even if it is grain and grass.

When the Empress Dowager army set out, she had already brought enough grain and grass baggage, and she wanted to take Shezhou before these grain and grass baggage were exhausted.

If you want to completely pacify Muzhou, you must finally completely defeat the army of the queen mother.

If at this time, Yuan Chao was able to lead the troublesome water army to stab her from behind, then it would be a huge blow to her and to the entire Tianyin Sect.

With this, Yuan Chao will be forgiven no matter how much he has made a mistake, and it is not impossible to even be promoted to a knighthood.

……

"Sir, you might as well take the words back and give it to the rest of you, if you can really take Muzhou City, break through the nest of the Tianyin Sect, and capture Tianyin Lady alive, then you will say that they will let them town Muzhou forever, that is, they will be crowned as princes and marquis, and it will be hereditary, and it is not impossible!" Li Xuan said a word, and Yuan Chao's eyes suddenly lit up.

Yao Zhi on the side couldn't help frowning, this was somewhat too much.

He didn't open his mouth to refute Li Xuan, after all, Li Xuan, the king of the current dynasty, was qualified to say this.

"With the prince's words, I will feel much more at ease." Yuan Chao's expression was trembling, he bowed to Li Xuan again, and said in a deep voice: "Xiaguan will go back and discuss with everyone, if everything goes well, all the results will be met soon, and I hope that the prince will wait patiently." ”

Yuan Chao's expression was very excited, and he seemed to be looking forward to that kind of future.

"Please, sir!" Li Xuan and Yao Zhi stood up at the same time, and everyone was relieved at the same time, and the matter finally came to an eyebrow.

……

The canopy boat came from the river and took Yuan Chao slowly into the distance.

At this time, the sun was already high, and the mist on the river began to thin rapidly.

A huge three-masted ship appeared above the clouds, and the canopy quickly approached the three-masted ship.

As soon as Yuan Chao stood still, a young general wearing silver fish scale armor had already walked over: "Second brother, how is the situation?" ”

"It's okay, it's not bad." Yuan Chao turned around, looked at Li Xuan and Yao Zhi who were still in the stone pavilion in the distance, and said with a solemn face: "The king of Nanchang is ready, if we are willing to surrender, a series of benefits will naturally be offered, if I don't wait, he is also ready to deal with us." ”

"Second brother, is the king of Nanchang really as rumored to have the ability to call the wind and rain?" A hint of worry flashed in the young general's expression.

Yuan Chao looked at the ninth brother Yuan Lin with some amusement, and said: "That's all rumors, if the king of Nanchang really has the ability to call the wind and rain, do you think the sage will still send him to Wuzhou?" ”

"I don't have it." Yuan Lin couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

"Not necessarily." Yuan Chao's face became serious, looked at Yuan Lin and said: "Although the king of Nanchang does not have the ability to call for wind and rain, when he knows the sky, it is inevitable that he will change with the sky, and with his amazing personal strategy, if you don't pay attention to it, you may fall into his trap." ”

"Little brother remembered!" Yuan Lin solemnly bowed his hand.

Yuan Chao waved his hand, and then followed up and asked, "Is everything normal in the army?" ”

"Yes! Although Zhu Jun was imprisoned, he did not move, and the people under him were also very peaceful, but the people of the three Bai brothers were active everywhere, and they seemed to have other ideas. Yuan Lin explained the events of Yuan Chao's departure one by one.

After Yuan Chao listened, his face involuntarily turned cold: "It seems that what King Nanchang said is right, some things really have to be discussed." ”

"Whoa!"

Yuan Chao took a deep breath and saw that in the distance, Li Xuan and Yao Zhi had already boarded the boat, and he hurriedly surrendered his hand.

Li Xuan and Yao Zhi stood on the canopy boat and bowed to Yuan Chao.

Standing up straight, Li Xuan turned sideways to Yao Zhi and asked, "Sima, you said that this Yuan joined the army, what does he want?" ”

"What else could it be, Sima's position, and the two thousand sailors under his command!" Yao Zhi has been watching from the sidelines today.

In today's negotiations, all the issues raised by Yuan Chao are actually his own.

He wants to stay in Muzhou, wants to occupy his real position, wants to gather with his soldiers, and wants the court to make a clear will to exonerate himself.

Bing Cao joined the army, moved to the position of Sima, and also wanted to have the control of the water division.

In this way, even if the imperial court appoints a new Muzhou assassin history, Yuan Chao, who has military power, is still the real king of Muzhou.

Even in the future, he will be able to get a glimpse of the position of assassination, and he definitely has such ambitions.

Thinking of this, Yao Zhi couldn't help but ask: "Lord Wang, if he really breaks through the nest of the Tianyin Sect and captures Tianyin alive, will the prince really protect him Yongzhen Muzhou, seal the prince and marquis, and hereditary replacement?" ”

"This is natural." Li Xuan nodded very dryly.

Looking at Yao Zhi's expression that he wanted to persuade but didn't know what to say, Li Xuan waved his hand and said: "Sima don't have to worry about this matter, if he can really capture Tianyin alive, where is the use of this king to protect the music, Your Majesty will personally summon him to Beijing and play the right thing in court." As for whether he can persuade His Majesty and the princes of the court to let Yongzhen Muzhou, make the prince a marquis, and replace him by hereditary, it depends on his own ability. ”

"I see!" Yao Zhi couldn't help but laugh.

Indeed, the final disposition of Yuan Chao has never been in the hands of the southeast, but in the palm of His Majesty's hands.

"By the way, Sima, he just mentioned exonerating and exonerating him several times, he shouldn't have done something unforgivable, right?" Li Xuan's sudden words made the smile on Yao Zhi's face tremble.

"There is nothing more capital than rebellion, everyone else is already here now, and everything else is nothing more than trivial matters." Yao Zhi shook his head slightly.

In the current situation, as long as Muzhou can be quickly stabilized, then even if there is something, the imperial court will directly recognize it.

What's more, the imperial court already has a system of "eight discussions": discussing relatives, discussing reasons, discussing virtuous, discussing ability, discussing merit, discussing nobles, discussing diligence, and discussing guests.

These eight types of people, below the crime of "flow", will be reduced by one degree; The ten heinous crimes were personally executed by the emperor.

If the emperor does not allow it, he will still be beheaded, and the emperor will allow it to be exiled for thousands of miles.

Li Xuan took a deep breath and said softly: "Now it seems that he is really going to surrender, I have to admit that this Yuan has a really keen feeling of joining the army, if he has been staying in the mountains, this king may indeed have no choice but to him, but if he enters Wuzhou, this king will definitely let him have no return." ”

"That's for the best." Yao Zhi also relieved his heart at the same time.
