Chapter 484 The Political Situation in Jiangnan

Xiao Han took Murong Qiuyu to Chizhou and went straight to Chizhou, and came to the Chizhou Mansion, where the guards recognized Xiao Han and hurriedly went in to report. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After a while, Zhang Quanyue came out to greet him in person, and when he saw Murong Qiuyu, he was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "Master Xiao has made such a great achievement, and now he is well-known in Jiangnan, please come in quickly." ”

The two followed him all the way back to the guest hall, the greetings were over, Zhang Quan retreated from everyone, closed the door of the hall and said: "Master Xiao came just in time today, His Royal Highness King Zheng sent a secret letter the day before yesterday, saying that the contradictions between the lord and him in many aspects have intensified, I heard that you are not on Wudang Mountain, His Royal Highness King Zheng is so anxious to die, write to the lower officials to ask for countermeasures." ”

Xiao Han didn't expect that not long after he left Nantang, the two brothers had a conflict again, it can be seen that since ancient times, power will make people transform, and what father-son affection and brotherhood are not worth mentioning in the face of power.

Xiao Han frowned and said: "Now that Nanping and Wuping have belonged to the Tang Dynasty, I heard that the commanders of all states are training their troops with their hearts, the situation between the DPRK and China is stable, and the brothers are harmonious, how can something happen again?"

Zhang Quanyue shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Everything is just an appearance. After Nanping and Wuping were defeated, His Royal Highness King Zheng distributed all the fields to the soldiers, and implemented land reform in the two places, and everything was carried out according to what Xiao Zhangmen had said before. Unexpectedly, this matter was reported by others, which caused the dissatisfaction of the lord of the country, and replaced dozens of officials originally recommended by His Royal Highness King Zheng, and replaced them with cronies of the lord of the country, and the system was also changed. ”

Xiao Handeng's face changed and he sneered: "What if the two places rebel?" Zhang Quanyue sighed: "His Royal Highness King Zheng is also worried, but he didn't expect the lord of the country to listen at all, but instead issued an edict accusing His Royal Highness King Zheng of deliberately cultivating cronies and deliberately splitting the ministers of civil and military affairs. His Royal Highness King Zheng had no way to argue, so he had to shut himself up in the palace and think about it behind closed doors. ”

Xiao Han stood up and said, "The next step is to kill someone." Zhang Quanyue was so frightened that he shuddered, looked at Xiao Han and said: "The lord of the country has always been benevolent, and he should not attack his own brother." Xiao Han sat down slowly and said, "Li Shimin is brothers with Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, what happened back then?"

Zhang Quanyue was shocked again, his face turned white, and his voice trembled: "If something happens to His Royal Highness King Zheng, we will be left behind." ”

Xiao Han said lightly: "Under the nest, how can there be eggs? This is the common principle of ancient and modern, King Zheng is finished, you are all finished, and none of you want to live." ”

A fierce light flashed in Zhang Quanyue's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Does Master Xiao have a plan to reverse the defeat?" Xiao Han shook his head and said: "Li Yu doesn't do it, we have no reason to do it, he is the lord of Jiangnan after all, and His Royal Highness King Zheng is just a prince, so he can't be reasonable." ”

Zhang Quanyue sighed: "Now that people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat, can I only let others slaughter them?" Xiao Han sneered: "That's not necessarily, I want to ask Lord Zhang, as a close confidant of His Royal Highness King Zheng, do you know how many people are loyal to His Royal Highness King Zheng?"

Zhang Quanyu said in a deep voice: "About 120 of the more than 300 Chinese warriors of the dynasty have defected to King Zheng, and most of the 19 prefectures have been commanded by King Zheng, but the imperial court has sent a new 19th Road Supervisor Army to prevent trouble, and without their consent, all troops are not allowed to move, and if there is an emergency, it is really a big trouble." ”

Xiao Han said with a smile: "Are the prison soldiers all eunuchs?" Seeing Zhang Quanyue nodding, Xiao Han said coldly: "It's just a dead eunuch, just kill it, there is no need to bother at all." ”

He said it so lightly, but Zhang Quanyue was taken aback, and said tremblingly: "If you kill the prison army, how is it different from rebellion?" Xiao Han laughed, patted the table lightly and said: "I'm talking about rebellion, is Lord Zhang scared?"

Zhang Quanyu jumped up and said: "This matter is absolutely not feasible, now that the forbidden army has all been replaced, the states are not prepared, His Royal Highness King Zheng is behind closed doors, if there is a sudden incident, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Xiao Han shook his head and said, "Don't worry, sit down and talk slowly." Seeing Zhang Quanyue sit down uneasily, Xiao Han's face changed, and he said seriously: "The two of them will have a fight, it's just a matter of time." Li Yu forced each other step by step, the purpose was nothing more than to let King Zheng take the initiative to hand over power, be a rich prince, and not care about state affairs. ”

Zhang Quanyue nodded again and again, and Xiao Han continued: "His Royal Highness King Zheng is also an ambitious person, how can he sit back and watch Jiangnan decline? I told you a long time ago that if Li Yu continues to rule Jiangnan, Jiangnan will definitely be annihilated by the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Zhang Quanyue nodded and said: "God blesses the head of Xiao, what he said has been fulfilled one by one, how to break the situation now, please let Master Xiao say it clearly." ”

Xiao Han said coldly: "It's nothing more than four words, you live and die." For the sake of millions of lives in Jiangnan, they can only be replaced. Zhang Quanyue's face was as pale as paper, and he leaned sideways to Xiao Han and said, "How to change?"

Xiao Han smiled and said: "This kind of deed is the most suitable for you literati to do, what Sun Tzu's thirty-six tactics of the Art of War take turns, don't believe that Li Yu can withstand it?"

Zhang Quanyue smiled bitterly and said: "It's useless to be a scholar, Master Xiao must have a trick, please look at His Royal Highness King Zheng and the princess to speak bluntly." ”

Xiao Han didn't continue, but asked Li Yu if he knew that Li Yueying was not dead. Zhang Quanyue was a little surprised, and told him that Li Yu had already learned about the matter, but he seemed very unconcerned, obviously wanting to downplay the matter. The princess is still told to pass away, and the name of the princess is removed from the Zongren Mansion.

Xiao Han was furious, and then thought that this was also the best result that Li Yu could think of, he couldn't harm Li Yueying, if Li Yueying returned to the palace to investigate, the matter would definitely make a big fuss, and when it spread, it would definitely become a scandal in all countries. It's better to bite to the end, just say that the princess is dead, even if Li Yueying appears in the future, there will be a large population in the world, and it will be said that people who are similar to each other will be.

Hearing what Zhang Quanyue said, Xiao Han sighed, glanced at Murong Qiuyu and said, "Don't tell your sister about this, lest she be sad." Murong Qiuyu nodded slightly.

Zhang Quanyue glanced at her strangely, and continued: "Nanping and Wuping are dissatisfied with the change system of the imperial court, especially the lord of the country's order to recover all the land that has been issued, which has caused dissatisfaction among the soldiers who went out, especially the Xue Lian father and son who have made great contributions, if it wasn't for King Zheng's secret suppression, they would have rebelled long ago." ”

Xiao Han laughed and said, "Is it so serious? Xue Lian's father and son have made outstanding achievements, Li Yu will definitely not treat the two of them badly, how can they rebel?"

Zhang Quanyue shook his head and said: "After the father and son pacified Nanping, they obtained 300 acres of land, which had already been leased and planted, and the imperial court not only recovered all of them, but also punished the two of them for one year under the pretext of indiscriminately killing innocents, and the officials were demoted to one level to retain. Now that the power is in the hands of the supervising army, the situation in each state is mostly similar, and the situation is very bad when King Zheng is idle at home. ”

Zhang Quanyue said and looked at Xiao Han, Xiao Han smiled and said: "You see what use I am, but I don't dare to rebel, I can only be bullied by others, and when I mix it up." I dare to ensure that King Zheng is okay, you cronies must be unlucky, have you ever wondered if you will be able to see the rising sun tomorrow?"

Zhang Quanyo's face turned iron blue when he boarded, and he held the tea cup tightly in his right hand and said: "King Zheng also speaks, now the lord of the country takes the lead, and the supervision of the Chinese military force is very strict, even if we have the heart of disobedience, but we are weak, now we can't even see King Zheng, how easy is this matter?"

Xiao Han tapped the table lightly and said: "Things are man-made, as long as you work hard in the world, there is no reason why you can't do it." As long as you make up your mind, come back to me. Looking at the face of Miss Li and King Zheng, I will spare no effort to urge you to succeed. ”

Zhang Quanyue's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but clapped his hands and said: "I can't sleep day and night in the past few days, and I heard that the lord of the country has heard that Yan Xu and Lord Han Xizai have said that the governors of various prefectures will be rotated, and the commanders of the garrisons in each state will also be replaced. We will wait for King Zheng's cronies to be purged, and His Royal Highness King Zheng will fall like a tiger in Pingyang as soon as his wings are removed, and there will be no chance of turning the tables. ”

Xiao Han said: "It makes sense. Then began to tell again what kind of harm Li Yu would bring to the Southern Tang Dynasty if he continued to rule. Zhang Quanyue had heard him say these words a few times, and he had already penetrated into his heart, but he just nodded his head again and again.

Originally, Xiao Han had not overthrown Li Yu's heart, but when he heard that Li Yu had removed Li Yueying from the clan, he was really angry in his heart, and he really wanted to kick him to the ground and stab him in more than eighty holes. Thinking of his hard work to get Zheng Wang Li Congshan to move, the implementation of land reform after the defeat of Nanping and Wuping, and the implementation of the household contract responsibility system and democratic election system in the two places in the future, this time Li Yu was beaten to pieces, and the fact that he broke his own ideals could put Xiao Han on the road of rebellion.

Since Li Yu ascended the throne, he was okay before, and he was a normal director of the court every day, but since he defeated Nanping and Wuping, he was a little carried away, and the court was also a little slack, I heard that there were two more stunning beauties in the harem, and he was so dizzy that he was a soft egg and a bastard every day, but he didn't forget to rectify and guard against his own brother.

Although Xiao Han has never done a coup d'Γ©tat, he is better than watching too many TV and books, and any conspiracy and deception are pediatric for him. However, if you want the coup to succeed, you have to plan carefully, it is not as complicated or as simple as it is staged on TV, and every section and every link needs to be carefully designed, and there must be no mistakes.

The choice must also be faithful, reliable and lovely, many coups in history have been miscarried, and many people have rebelled, which Xiao Han will never commit. The same is true for him to kill the Wuji Gang, and he definitely doesn't give people any chance to turn the tables.

The coup d'Γ©tat must be before Li Yu starts, if Li Yu is successfully replaced, the state capitals and the army will change hands, so that he has to embark on the road of rebellion and assassination, which will be unfavorable to Li Congshan.

Xiao Han even thought that if the coup did not go well, the Zhao brothers in the north would definitely take advantage of the fire to rob and send troops to the Southern Tang Dynasty, so that there would be trouble, although the Southern Tang Dynasty had the ability to defeat the Song army, it would also pay a considerable price for recovery, which was the last thing he wanted to see.

After thinking about it, a plan gradually formed in Xiao Han's mind, and after thinking for a while, he felt that there was no big problem in operation, Xiao Han breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Zhang Quan, who was concerned: "Can you find Master Zheng?"
