Chapter 2 Three Strategies for the Night

Seeing everyone leaving, the young Confucian who called Li Wenruo said to Chen Weinan: "If the sage listens to Brother Weinan's plan, why are we so embarrassed today." ”

"Since this is the case, Wen Ruo doesn't have to worry too much. I just felt that my centuries-old inheritance in Gaojiluo in Great Xia had been ruined by me. Time also!

"Brother Weinan, what are your plans for the future?"

Chen Weinan shook his head and said helplessly: "Now that I have left in such an embarrassment, it is also a blessing and a curse to return to Great Xia." Wen Ruo can teach me?"

"Brother Weinan, I won't tell you. When you offered the upper, middle, and lower strategies for the imperial court to deal with the situation in Gaojiluo, I was already thinking about a way out. Now that the relatives of the court and the eunuchs are in power, the saints are not able to make sense, and the Qingliu party will only frame people with different political views. The general Li Guangbi was convicted for his words, and his death by being killed is a lesson from the past. ”

"Wen Ruozhi Brother Weinan has the heart to support the community and strive to save the sky. But do extraordinary things in extraordinary times. If Wen Ruo is not talented, he also has three plans for Brother Weinan. Two of them may require Weinan to go against his heart, or maybe Brother Weinan will disobey the imperial court. The remaining plan in addition to the two plans is the safest, and there is no need for Brother Weinan to disobey the court, nor does Brother Weinan need to go against his heart. I don't know what Brother Weinan wants to hear?"

"If Wen Ruo is right, you should do extraordinary things in extraordinary times. We seek the well-being of saints and the common people in the world, and we have a clear conscience. Even if there is something that goes against your heart, if you leave that eternal infamy in the future, I will bear it alone. If you just have to talk about it, don't worry. ”

When Li Wenruo saw Chen Weinan answer like this, he couldn't help but stroking his hands and laughing: "Brother Weinan has this responsibility, and he has this determination, so why worry about the big thing." ”

"Brother Weinan, these three strategies of mine are also following the three strategies of Gaojiluo that you offered to the saint at that time, which are divided into upper, middle and lower three strategies. Which one do you want to hear first?"

Chen Weinan spread his hands and said, "Wen Ruo said that it doesn't hurt. ”

"The uncle of the Weinan brothers is still serving by the side of the saint, and he is also the leader of the Ruying party, although he has political disagreements with the Qingliu party, but he is even more in the same water and fire as the eunuchs. It's just that Master Chen is upright, and there is a lack of trustworthy people around him. Brother Weinan, as the nephew of the Chen Fuzi clan, is not a member of the Ruying Party, but also has a classmate relationship with Yin Yi, a member of the Qingliu Party. It is the best person for this person who is in harmony with each other. At that time, the Qingliu party members were incorporated, and the generals of Beiliang and Xiliang were asked for help. The inside and outside should be in line with the policy of the king. Punish the relatives and kill the eunuchs. Then the world can be determined. ”

"The disadvantage of this strategy is that the Qingliu Party likes to talk highly, it is difficult to practice, and it is unpredictable to cooperate with them. In addition, it is difficult to determine the mind of the generals, if it is properly controlled, it will be foreign aid, and if it is not properly controlled, it will be a tiger and wolf, which will hurt people at least and devour people at worst. At that time, Brother Weinan and the saint will really become the carp in the pond and the finch in the cage. Therefore, it is the next step. ”

Li Wenruo paused, as if observing Chen Weinan's reaction.

I saw that Chen Weinan's face was cloudy after hearing this policy, and it seemed feasible to link the Qingliu party to lead the generals of Xiliang and Beiliang into Beijing Qingjun. In fact, it is indeed very dangerous, if it is not handled properly, it is tantamount to conspiring with the tiger, the saint will be in prison, not to mention, the 800-year foundation of Great Xia may be destroyed by this matter, and he will be self-defeating and infamous through the ages.

Thinking of this, Chen Weinan thought that he had forgotten that Li Wenruo was still waiting to continue to talk about the remaining two strategies.

So Chen Weinan hugged his fist at the young Confucian scholar and apologized for the power just now, and stretched out his hand to signal Li Wenruo to continue to talk about the remaining two strategies.

The young Confucian scholar received Chen Weinan's signal, and then continued: "Now there are relatives in the court who are dictatorial and corrupt, and they are emasculating greed and wealth to block the sage's words. Outside, there are Fuying, the Southern Barbarian States, and the Northern Mang are now on the border of Chen Bing, gearing up and eyeing each other. Since Taizu destroyed the Six Kingdoms and established our Great Xia Dynasty, Gao Jiluo has been a vassal to our pilgrims for 800 years. Now that he is helping to win the prisoner Bian Gaojiluo, seeing that the soldiers are approaching the summer city, the saints and the court are powerless, and they have no time to look north. Today's Great Summer is already a flat boat in the vast sea, and the real wind and rain are shaking and capsizing soon. ”

Li Wenruo took a sip of tea, observed Chen Weinan's reaction, and saw that when Chen Weinan heard that the Great Xia court was overthrown, he just frowned and did not refute it, so he continued: "Brother Weinan has armor in his chest and good plans in his belly. If you have a heart, you can get a position in Beiliangbian Town, and take charge of the military by training the new army for the saint in Beiliang. Most of the generals of the Northern Liangbian Army were born under the command of General Lu, the brother-in-law of Weinan, and the brother of Weinan has been operating in Xinjiluo for many years. Within three or five years, when the trained recruits become an army, if they can be supported to win, the north is outside the country, and the people of Beiliang in the Great Xia Dynasty will be safe. If you attack, you can recover the lost land of Gaojiluo, and follow the example of Di Hou beside Taizu to open up territory and expand the territory of my Great Xia Dynasty. If it is internal, it can respond to the power of the saint and the court, and it will not be powerless. ”

"It's just that the disadvantage is that Brother Weinan needs to go against his heart and befriend the eunuchs, and the eunuch party of Shili Pavilion is very critical to this policy. If you accuse Brother Wei Nan of acting in Beiliang, even if he has the geographical advantages, people and people, his name is not right, and he is struggling step by step. This is the best way to go. ”

The real difficulty of this strategy is to bribe the sage envoy of Shili Pavilion, and through good castration, buy the opportunity to stay in Beiliang to train the new army. Although this strategy will be a little infamous for the time being, when the recruits become an army, it is also the time to display their ambitions. It's a feasible strategy.

"How's that for that?"

Li Wenruo tapped the hilt of the sword in his waist rhythmically with his fingers with one hand and said, "Ru Ying to avoid trouble." ”

"Avoiding trouble?"

"Yes, avoid trouble. Now if Gao Jiluo loses, whether it is Brother Weinan's responsibility or not, in the eyes of those who care, the responsibility for this matter will be counted on Brother Weinan, and even the Ruying Chen family. At that time, even if the saint knows that it is not your fault, there is nothing to be done, after all, the matter of Gaziro is a fait accompli, and someone must come out to take the blame at that time. And Brother Wei Nan is the best candidate for this guilty person. ”

"Since sooner or later this crime will fall on Brother Weinan's head. Brother Weinan might as well take retreat as advance, and take the initiative to resign and return to Ruying to keep filial piety. This gives the saint a step down and leaves a place in the saint's heart. It can also block the mouths of many well-intentioned people, and reduce the chance of being attacked by political enemies for Chen Fuzi and the Chen family. ”

"Now that the foundation of Great Xia has rotted, the pillars are gone, and it is only a matter of time before it collapses. Thou art and the people of Thou art very much from thy grandfather. Brother Weinan only needs to lie dormant in Ruying, and within three or five years, the time will come. Brother Weinan can gather the power of Ruying to connect Jingchu in the south and Qingxu in the north. When the time comes, gather the power of the four continents in the world and turn the tide, and the big thing can be decided. This is the best policy. ”

After that, Li Wenruo stopped talking. just stared at Chen Weinan quietly, waiting for the other party's final decision.
