Chapter 63: Huan Yu's Scheme

Yu Rong returned to the General's Mansion and saw his father Yu Liang. At this time, Yu Liang, the general of Zhenxi, was wearing a cloak and sitting alone in the Hua Pavilion, facing a dead game on the chessboard, silently pondering. Yu Gong walked behind him and didn't realize it. Yu Rong called out softly, "Father", Yu Liang turned his head, saw Yu Rong, and asked, "Is there any news from the imperial court?" Yu Rong shook his head. Yu Liang sighed lightly, turned his head to look at the chessboard again, and said, "What's the matter?"

Yu Yi originally wanted to tell his father that Huan Wen had planted the sham and ordered the arrest of Huan Yi Han Yue and others, but seeing his father's absent-minded expression, he couldn't help it, and just said, "The child went to inspect the boundary of Jingyu City today." ”

"Oh, good. Remember to practice diligently every day and don't slack off. Yu Liang still stared at the chess game and said.

Yu Gong had to leave in a hurry, he didn't want these complicated things to disturb his father, and he knew that his father's heart had flown away now, flying over Jiankang, flying over the Yangtze River, and flying to the north.

Yu Liang has always wanted to raise troops for the Northern Expedition to recover the lost territory in the north. For this reason, he has been in Jingzhou for many years

He trained his troops and hoped that one day the imperial court would allow him to send troops to conquer the northern countries. Especially in recent years, he has continued to play the imperial court to ask for war. However, all the concerts about the Northern Expedition have not been replied to like a stone sinking into the sea, which has become a problem for Yu Liang.

In addition, Yu Gong is also worried that his father has valued and trusted Huan Wen very much over the years, no, it is getting more and more. Even if you are a son, you may not be able to listen to it. "It seems that some things can only be done on your own. Yu Gong sighed in his heart.

Back in his study, Yu Gong called his henchman Yu Lu: "Yu Lu, have you ever heard of Huan Wen's raising of the dead?"

"My subordinates have heard about it and have checked it, but they have never found any real evidence. Yu Yu replied.

"Didn't you say sending someone to keep an eye on him?"

"It's really a day and night watch, and an inside line is also installed in Huan Mansion. However, according to investigation, there were no dead soldiers in Huan Mansion. I suspect that if he really raised the dead, he should have been placed somewhere else. ”

"You also heard today, Huan Yi and they were robbed and killed by a group of people in blue clothes in the bamboo forest. Could this man in blue clothes be a dead man raised by Huan Wen?"

"It's possible. Yu Yu said, "However, why did he hunt down and kill the three sons of the family? Aren't you afraid of offending several families?"

"I'm afraid, of course he's afraid, so he first sent someone to assassinate him. If you can't kill and arrest, and you don't see that the name is not mentioned on the notice. Even if he was known, he could be said to have been caught by mistake. ”

"Looks like he's really scheming. ”

"Compared to him, we are far from being mentally inferior, so we have to raise 10,000 spirits to deal with him. You send someone to find out where the bamboo forest is. No, you go in person. ”

"Yes, my subordinates will take someone to check it in person. ”

"Also, don't make a noise. We sent people to Huan Mansion, do you think Huan Wen will not install people in the Jiangfu?"

"The subordinates understand. Since the incident happened in Jingzhou City, even if the subordinates dig three feet into the ground, they must find clues. "Yu Lu is calm, Yu Liang sent him to Yu Yan back then, and he also wanted him to assist and protect his baby son. Over the years, the relationship between the two has been as solid and tacit as brothers.

Yu Gong looked at the figure of Yu Lu walking out, and his heroic face flashed with a murderous aura. When he found the evidence of the dead man, he grabbed Huan Wen's rebellious pigtails and made sure to expose his face in front of his father.

At the same time, there was also a person from Huan Mansion, and this person was the patrol team leader who almost caught Huan Yi Han Yue and others during the day. When he saw Huan Wen, he told Huan Wen how he discovered their whereabouts during the day, how he spied on the horse's feet, and how he was about to be caught, but he was let go by Yu Gong, and of course, he also added fuel to the fire during the period, and he also exaggerated how he was witty and how to bravely capture the enemy.

Huan Wen was not interested in his detailed descriptions at all, he only cared about the outcome. Since the result is that the person has run away, then the process is meaningless. He reached out and stroked his stubble beard, and fell into another deep thought. He muttered in his mouth: "Yu Gong, Yu Daoji." ”

"Yes, that's him. The person you want to arrest, he wants to let go. is clearly against the general, and does not take the general in his eyes. The squad leader provoked again and again, he was angry, it was originally a matter of meritorious service and reward, but he was stirred up by Yu Gong, not to mention, and let him be beaten by the group of people in vain.

Yu Gong not only let them go, but also issued an order that all checkpoints in Jingxiang Nine Counties should not be stopped. Isn't that the same as giving them a pass. He continued.

"Do you know where they're going?" Huan Wen interrupted him and asked.

"This, this, this, the subordinates didn't hear clearly. Yes, yes, what is South. ”

"What Nan? Huainan?"

"Yes, yes, it seems to be Huainan. ”

"Are you sure?"

"Sure, the subordinates are sure that they are talking about Huainan. To go to Huainan is just to pass through Yuzhou. ”

Huan Yi listened to the movement of his beard and seemed to laugh. He said, "Come, bring him down and receive the reward." This time you did a good job, keep an eye on it in the future, and I won't treat you badly. ”

The squad leader thanked him again and again and left.

Huan Wen asked the deputy general Ji An, who was standing aside: "What has Yu Liang been doing lately?"

"Returning to the general, he seems to be hiding in the mansion except for the occasional patrol of the barracks. If there is anything, most of them go to the house to look for him. I didn't see anything else. ”

"I guess I'm waiting for the echo of the imperial court to be anxious, so let's turn the mill at home. Huan Wen laughed, "Then we'll help him make his wish come true." ”

"Hasn't the general always opposed General Yu's Northern Expedition? Why do you want to help him promote it at this time?"

"This time and that time. Now that the time and place have arrived, how can I not take advantage of the situation?"

"What is the right time and place for the general?"

"I heard that Wang Dao died not long ago. This person has always been the main and not the main battle, supporting the first emperor, Anyu River right, and ruling across the river, which was originally his idea. This is why Yu Liang played several times, but there was no news. With this prime minister in the presence of the king, no one can think of the Northern Expedition. Now that Wang Dao is dead, there must be a lot of competition for the position of prime minister in the court, eager to make meritorious contributions, and the Northern Expedition is the easiest to make meritorious contributions. This is the time of day. ”

"Since there is a time of heaven, the general must have a favorable place and people. Jian nodded straightly.

"In the past, I was in Jingzhou, relying on Yu Liang's support, and I was not stable. If he wants me to go with him during the Northern Expedition, and if I can't do it and become a pioneer, wouldn't that be a death? Now that most of Jingzhou is under my control, he will naturally hand over the heavy responsibility of guarding Jingxiang's lair to me during the Northern Expedition. If the Northern Expedition wins, he will be promoted to the rank of knight and will not return to Jingzhou. If he loses, even if the court does not condemn himself, he will not have the face to return to this place. Therefore, no matter how successful or defeated his Northern Expedition is, these Jingxiang Nine Counties are all in my pocket. That's the location. ”

"The general is really powerful. ”

"The powerful person is not me, but in Huainan. Huan Wen said this, with a smug smile on his face, "We have to rely on helping Yu Liang fulfill his Northern Expedition wish." ”

"Is that Cao Ji still in Jingzhou? Invite me right away. Huan Wen instructed the lieutenant general.

"Yes. In addition, the fourth son is still grounded in the backyard, whether... ”

"Shut it up. This kid actually carried me on his back and ate inside and out. If he hadn't taken advantage of my time in the barracks to let them go privately, I would have gotten the Yin Stone a long time ago, and I would have needed to arrest them everywhere. However, without them, I can get what I want. Send someone to open the hole in the ground of Nengru Temple for me as soon as possible. ”

"Yes. The subordinates are arranged. The general also believes in the rumors of the Yin Soldier Talisman?" asked Ji'an.

"Since so many passers-by are keen to find the Yin Soldier Talisman, even if it doesn't have that much power, it must be a good thing. It's all on our lips, so why don't we? Even if it's not useful to us now, we can use it as a bargaining chip in the future. ”

"What the general said is very true. I'm going to send someone to the temple. ”

"First force those monks to find a way to open the cave. I really couldn't open it, so it exploded. “

"If it is blown up, won't the hole in the ground collapse? I am afraid that the thousand-year-old Nengru Temple will not be guaranteed. Ji An looked at Huan Wen in surprise.

"Since I can't open it, what are I left for? What I can't get, others can't think of. By the way, these two things must avoid Yu Rong's ears and eyes, this kid has always been against me. Huan Wen admonished.
