Han Shizu

Chapter 16 Different Attitudes
After Jingnan's messenger left, Jinyang City welcomed a new messenger from the west.

Compared with Gao Conghui's messenger, Liu Zhiyuan obviously paid more attention to Ximian's envoy, and his attitude was also more friendly, and he ordered someone to lead him into the palace's inner hall for dialogue.

The messenger was a young man with a strong posture, and one could tell at a glance that he was a warrior in the army.He was from Jingzhou, Guanzhong, and was a subordinate of Shi Kuangyi, the military governor of Zhangyi Army.

"Last commander Shi Cheng, meet the King of Peiping!" Facing Liu Zhiyuan's scrutiny, he gave a serious and serious manner.

Seeing his seriousness, Liu Zhiyuan suddenly felt good in his heart, and asked in a gentle tone, "You don't need to be restrained, what is it that Duke Jimei sent you here?"

Shi Kuangyi, courtesy name Jimei, a native of Daijun, was born in Jiangmen.His father was Shi Jiantang, who was known as the second warrior of the "Five Dynasties" and fought against Wang Yanzhang for two hundred rounds.However, Shi Kuangyi may not have fully inherited his father's powerful force, but he is also a general, who understands the art of war, knows strategy, and has integrity.

He is a few years older than Liu Zhiyuan. He has served in the Tang and Jin dynasties. Last year, he moved to Jingyuan from Beizhou and served as the Jiedu envoy of the Zhangyi Army.In the borderlands, pacifying the people and fighting the Rong is a great contribution to the country.

The purpose of sending people to Taiyuan this time is very clear, to form a good relationship with Liu Zhiyuan and fight against the Khitan.

The messenger Shi Cheng seemed to be very open-minded. Faced with Liu Zhiyuan's question, he didn't say anything sloppy, and directly stated his intention: "Hu rode south, and lived in Liangji, and the military commander did not want to submit to the Rong and Di. I wanted to lead the division. To the east, with enemies and pirates, but in the four states of Jingyuan, the soldiers are few and the people are poor, and the strength is not at risk. I hope that the King of Peiping will be the master, expel the Khitan, and return the Han family to the world!"

Lai Shi boldly looked at Liu Zhiyuan, with a solemn expression and a sincere tone, much more sincere than those of Gao Congjiao.

Hearing this, Liu Zhiyuan felt a little joy in his heart, but he did not show any expression, and there was a perfunctory meaning in his words: "Brother Jimei still does not forget to worry about the country in the borderland, which is really admirable. Is brother Jimei valued so much? If brother Jimei has the heart to attack thieves, I will definitely help!"

After receiving such an answer, Shi Cheng raised his neck and his tone suddenly became anxious: "Although the last general is a martial artist, he is not a man of Lulu. Please forgive the last general's rudeness. Does the king take such prevarications and let the last commander reply?"

Such a blatant question is indeed rude, but Liu Zhiyuan is not angry about it, haha ​​laughed a few times: "But it's a lonely fault!"

When Shi Cheng's face softened, Liu Zhiyuan got up, walked back and forth in the hall a few times, looked at the person, and slowly recited: "The Khitan entered the pirates, drove straight in, occupied the two capitals, and was invincible. The Khitan lord summoned the towns, and the Quartet Jiedu, Only Shi Gong follows the United States, sticks to the national city, and will not be ordered. This kind of heroic act, alone in Jinyang, has also been heard and yearned for. "

"Now that Brother Mei has sent an envoy to tell his heart, how could Gu will deny his sincerity, the heart of a cold man!" After speaking, Liu Zhiyuan himself was a little emotional, and his fluctuating eyes were actually moist, and he raised his finger to point. Shi Cheng: "You should reply to brother Jimei and protect the Han family. It is also a lonely ambition, and it will not be the same!"

"King Gaoyi of Peiping!" Hearing Liu Zhiyuan's words, Shi Cheng bowed his head.

Picking up this person in person, Liu Zhiyuan asked with a smile, "Your name is Shi Cheng, you are brother Jimei's nephew? What's your official position?"

"The last general is the adopted son of Jiedu Shuai, and now he is Jiedu Ya-general!"

"Brother Jimei has vision, he is Junjie!" Liu Zhiyuan boasted casually, and then instructed Liu Chengxun, who was waiting beside him, "Darang, order someone to invite General Shi down and take good care of him. Tonight, Gu will personally take care of him. Throw a banquet to wash away the dust!"

"Yes!"

"By the way, there is one more thing to report to the king!" When he was leaving, Shi Cheng suddenly turned around and cupped his hands.

"But it doesn't matter!"

Shi Cheng sighed and replied: "Xiongwu Jiedushi, He Reconstruction, beheaded Khitan to envoy, and surrendered to Shu with the three states of Qin, Cheng, and Jie. The Lord of Shu has sent troops to help He rebuild and attack Guanzhong. When the last general came east, the Shu army We are attacking Fengzhou together with He Jun, and with the strength of Fengzhou, I am afraid we cannot stop it.”

Hearing the news, Liu Zhiyuan frowned. Just by his imagination, he could guess the chaotic situation in Xiaguan.After thinking about it for a while, he said with a heavy breath: "Rong Di has no owner in the Central Plains, so he is attached to Fangzhen. I am alone in the east of the river, and I have nothing to do. I am ashamed. This is a great mountain and river, and it is time to take care of it. !"

After Shi Cheng was taken down, Liu Zhiyuan's expression returned to calm, and he exhaled a turbid breath: "What a simple young man!"

Don't look at Liu Zhiyuan in front of the messenger, one after another, "Brother Jimei", but in fact, the two have no friendship, and even only met one or two times many years ago.He was so enthusiastic just because he also needed Shi Kuangyi, a prince with sufficient ability, prestige and qualifications, to give him a "platform".

"Father, even Duke Shi has come to pay his respects to Cheng!" Liu Chengxun, who had turned around, walked up to Liu Zhiyuan and said with a smile on his face.

Glancing at the eldest son, Liu Zhiyuan asked, "Why do you think Shi Kuangyi sent people to watch?"

"Of course my father has a high moral character!" Almost without thinking, the words came out of Liu Chengxun's mouth.

Liu Zhiyuan smiled, looking at the eldest son who was serving obediently in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh.If it were the second son, I'm afraid he would reply coldly: It's just because Hedong's soldiers are strong and strong!

Liu Chengxun couldn't guess what his father was thinking, so he stepped forward to help him sit down and asked, "It is also the same as sending an envoy to persuade him to enter. Why is my father's attitude towards Jingnan's messenger and Jingyuan's messenger so different?"

Facing the doubts of the eldest son, Liu Zhiyuan smiled coldly: "Shi Kuangyi is a city in the country, and his father needs the support of such an old minister to gather people's hearts. Gao Cong teaches rogues, and shrinks like a mouse, it is useless to me, if he enters the Central Plains one day, And beware, why should you give him a good face?"

After listening to his father's explanation, Liu Chengxun seemed to understand, but after hesitating for a moment, he asked in a low voice, "I don't know my father, when do you plan to become emperor?"

Glancing at Liu Chengxun, Liu Zhiyuan said, "Why do you ask this question?"

"In the past few days, a lot of people have been asking me side-by-side. The crowd is looking forward to it, and I don't know how to answer them."

"Hehe, it seems that they really can't bear it anymore"

The night was shrouded, the twilight was dark, and the night seemed to calm the restlessness in Jinyang City during the day.On the east wall of the west city, Liu Chengyou crossed his fingers and rested his elbows on the parapet, staring at the Fen River flowing south outside the city wall.

The evening wind blew gently, tugging a few strands of Liu Chengyou's loose hair, and the chin lightly knocked on his knuckles, the young man pondered.In this short period of time, he has thought about too many things.

"Master!" Liu Chengyou would not be here for no reason. After waiting for a while, thick footsteps sounded, and Zhang Yanwei passed the guard and walked to him to salute.

The whole person did not move, Liu Chengyou still leaned against the wall, and said in his mouth: "Have you discussed everything?"

"Yes! I have made an agreement with Yang Ping, Shi Hongzhao and others, and ask for orders tomorrow!" Zhang Yanwei replied.

"Yeah!" Liu Chengyou finally nodded and whispered: "Remember, restrain your soldiers, and don't make trouble. If there is an accident, I will ask you!"

"Please rest assured! The brothers who petitioned were all personally selected by Commander Ma!" Zhang Yanwei assured confidently.

"Go!"

"Yes!"

Lying on the city wall for a while, Liu Chengyou straightened his spine, turned his head to the west, and looked at the Taiyuan Palace shrouded in the hazy night in the distance.

Not surprisingly, within a few days, Liu Zhiyuan will be in the middle.

In fact, the time has basically been set, and this month Xinwei ([-]th) is a good day.It's just that some necessary processes are needed before that day comes.
