Chapter 862 Change the door
After Hao Tianyi expressed his willingness to submit a petition for self-disarmament, his brothers left with satisfaction.

The night of the Mid-Autumn Festival has not yet passed, but the feeling of betrayal is lingering in my heart, so there is no need to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival again.

On the way to the study, he felt alone...

Kublai Khan cut the power of the Marquis. For other princes of the Central Plains, although they lost some power, they were still extremely honorable high-ranking officials.

The breadth of the Mongols' governance of the region is still rare in all dynasties.

If Hao Tianyi hadn't been captured by Li Xia before and then released, he would happily accept the change from "Military and Civilian Chief" on Taiyuan Road to "Civilian Chief".

Although the descendants cannot hereditary military power, it is easy to become a high-ranking central official by sending a hostage into the court. The Hao family is still prominent, and can be prominent for a long time.

But the problem is that there is no if.

Only he is different, only he will still be liquidated sooner or later.

"Actually, I also want to be like what you said, to be the chief executive of Taiyuan Road, or the governor of Taiyuan. But am I the same as you? Heh."

"You can still be high-ranking officials in the Yuan Dynasty, but I have lost my military power, and it is difficult for me to even survive."

Back in the study room, Hao Tianyi took out the copied "Answer to Su Wu Shu" from the bookcase, put it on the candle and lit it.

He shouldn't have been captured in the first place.

Shouldn't come back after being captured...

The green smoke rose, and the scene of Li Xia and Zhang Jue's time together suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Li Xia?"

Hao Tianyi muttered the name.

If it had been this time last year, he would have despised Li Xia so much that he would not have the slightest chance of wanting to take refuge in Li Xia.

At that time, when he was looking at Li Xia, it was the emperor of Taiyuan Road who was looking at a dog of Song Ting.

But today, he suddenly felt... under Li Xia's rule, even if he only defended Shu, he could be an ordinary founding hero, at least it would be better than being liquidated in the future.

"Oh, that's funny."

Human nature is like this.If you can be a prince, you will not even think about changing your family; if you can be a high-ranking official in Mengyuan, you will still not have the thought of defecting.

Even as ordinary officials, some people would feel that officials were more lenient under the Mongolian rule.

But as long as the situation is worse, once it is reduced to a precarious situation, like Hao Tianyi's, he suddenly feels that Li Xia has revealed the aura of a wise king who is powerful and universal.

After thinking up to this point, no one needs to persuade him, as long as his position changes, Hao Tianyi suddenly has the idea of ​​changing his family.

He soon became excited and his mind was active.

He also thought of taking away his wife and children, but the arrangements for the thirty or so concubines were not easy to arrange. Would it be possible to abandon them?

There are also ten thousand hectares of family property and ten thousand hectares of fertile land, I'm afraid I can't take them away...

So there was some hesitation.

If he can continue to be loyal to Da Yuan in the future, at least half of Taiyuan City will still be his property, but Li Xia can only live a poor life when he arrives.

Whether you can rebel or you don't want to rebel.

It's a pity that Kublai Khan was already suspicious.

For a while, Hao Tianyi seemed very indecisive.

But if it is someone else, how can there be any sense at this time?How many people are willing to abandon the glory and wealth earned by two generations and start all over again?

I am afraid that the choice of the vast majority of people is still to kneel in front of Kublai Khan and implore him to continue to trust.

After the indecisive Hao Tianyi struggled repeatedly, he gritted his teeth and made a decision, which was actually beyond the reaction of normal people.Even those younger brothers who knew him best didn't think he could really leave Taiyuan behind.

Maybe it would be different if Kublai Khan gave him some more time to think about it, maybe it was his younger brothers who really urged him to make up his mind.

"Father was taken captive when he was young, and he had no choice but to become attached to Mongolia. Now that the Han Dynasty has prospered, it's time to bring order out of chaos. How can I, a good man of the Han family, stoop to serve the barbarians again?!"

……

Once you have made up your mind, you have to think about how to do it.

Hao Tianyi spread out the map of Taiyuan City before he began to think, his eyes froze suddenly.

Since the Jin Dynasty was destroyed, Shanxi has become the hinterland of Mongolia, and there has been no war for 30 years.

Nominally, Taiyuan Road raised 8000 soldiers, but in fact there were less than [-], which were used to deal with the conscription of the Great Khan.

Among them, more than a thousand of the most elite soldiers and horses had followed him to Yan'an and were captured by Li Xia; in the battle of Hancheng, Hao Zhongwei lost 5000 men, and the remnants were collected by Shi Tianze.

Hao Tianyi wasn't sure if he could command the remaining soldiers and horses.

Before, he always felt that he was very brave and did not fall under his father's prestigious reputation.

But if you think about it carefully, apart from some smooth battles in your life, the only battle for fame... was being captured in Yan'an.

How many soldiers are willing to follow such a defeated general?
Even if the remaining less than 2000 people are really willing to rebel, Taiyuan is a thousand miles away from the customs, and there are all big and small princes in the middle, so it is impossible to get Li Xia's military support.

It is impossible to defend the city, and it is even more impossible to fight all the way to Guanzhong.

In fact, it is impossible for the soldiers and horses in Taiyuan to be willing to abandon their wives and children, leave their homes and follow him to join Li Xia.

Hao Tianyi knew that if he communicated with any general, he might be betrayed in the next moment.

With a chill on his neck, he seemed to see his head being chopped off, and a confidant general behind him sneered, "Why did I leave Taiyuan with you..."

In addition, there are still Zhang Hongfan and dozens of cowardly Xue troops in the city.

Although Zhang Hongfan's troops are small, Hao Tianyi has self-knowledge, he has no ability to fight Zhang Hongfan at all.

I don't even have the guts.

Instead of leading troops to break through, it is better to escape quietly.

"I'm such a waste." In the end, Hao Tianyi sighed helplessly...

~~
August sixteen.

When the sun was three poles high, Wang Xiao was still lying down soundly, until he was pushed awake by Wang Chengye.

"Sir, Hao Tianyi hung five lanterns at the back door of the General Manager's Mansion, and asked Mr. to meet tomorrow."

Wang Luo was not in a hurry to answer, first he straightened his hair, and deliberately left the sides of the hair, and then asked: "Did you not be followed when you inquired about the general manager's mansion?"

"No, I hired a rogue in the city to watch him from the tea house across the street, to make sure there was no tail behind him."

"killed?"

"No." Wang Chengye said: "The envoy has taught me that killing people seems simple, but it is easy to attract the attention of interested people."

"Don't you have a mind of your own?"

Wang Xiao adjusted his appearance in front of the bronze mirror, and said casually: "Killing people is easy to attract their attention. But the problem is, the two good dogs of Yanjing are here to catch us, so why bother?"

"Do you need me to kill that rogue again?" Wang Chengye asked.

"There's no need to look for it again." Wang Luo said, "Hao Tianyi is being controlled by two good dogs. They are trying to lure me over."

"Would you like to transfer immediately?"

"No hurries?"

Wang Luo washed his face, straightened his sleeves, pushed open the door, and smiled into the sunshine.

"The weather is so nice." He looked at Ma Yan who was standing in the courtyard, and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

"Eat, I ate twice a day in previous years, but I ate three meals a day when I joined the Military Intelligence Department."

Wang Luo shook his head in disgust, and said, "Stop talking, just say something in two days, and report yourself as 'yamen', heh, this can also be done carefully."

Yu Dechen came forward, holding a basket in his hand, and looked at Wang Luo with a helpless expression on his face.

"You arrived early at Jinyang Tower."

"eat together?"

"No."

Wang Luo smiled faintly, and instead of taking the basket in Yu Dechen's hand, he directly took out a piece of mooncake from it and broke it open.

After breaking three yuan in a row, he took out a note and glanced at it with a confident smile on his face.

"Look, as I said, if two dogs come, they will force Hao Tianyi back..."

Wang Chengye, Ma Yan, and Yu Dechen were all surprised, and finally admired Wang Xiao a little bit.

"This is? He asked Mr. to meet and discuss the matter of belonging?"

Wang Chengye took the note and pondered.

He is a person who is used to being cautious, so he asked again: "Why did Hao Tianyi deliver the letter to sir like this?"

Wang Luo waved his hands, the corners of his mouth seemed to reach his ears, but his tone became more and more calm.

"I left a few more ways for him to contact me, that's all."

"Mr. Gaocai, what shall we do next?"

"Naturally let him mobilize his confidantes, first kill Zhang Hongfan and Hao Tianting, and then control the members of the Hao family and control Taiyuan." Wang Luo said: "When Taiyuan is blocked, the princes in the south of Shanxi will lose contact with Yanjing. I will do it." Contact Ahema and tell him that all the princes of Shanxi are cooperating with us, forcing Ahema to submit. If so, please cooperate with King Qin to encroach on Shanxi..."

Wang Chengye was a little dazed when he heard it, but he asked, "But the key is, can Hao Tianyi do it?"

"I don't care what he does." Wang Xiao snorted lightly.

He is a counselor, lobbyist and strategist, and his talent lies in stirring up the situation so far.

He doesn't care about the rest.

I don't know how to lead troops to fight, and I don't know Taiyuan well, and there are only a few people around me, so I can't control it if I want to.

"Monk Hao has been dead for 11 years, and Hao Tianyi has been the military and civilian chief of Taiyuan Road for 11 years. If you can't even kill two dogs, what do you need this trash for? It's better to pack your luggage and go back to Chang'an."

Wang Luo muttered like this, and walked into the house again.

"I'm going to disguise myself and meet Hao Tianyi."

……

In the courtyard, Wang Chengye and Yu Dechen looked at each other, and said in a low voice: "Why do I feel that I'm afraid I'm going to stumble?"

Yu Dechen wasn't surprised either, he still looked calm and asked, "Have you seen the kit that Secretary Lin gave you?"

"No."

"He said he would watch it if he felt it was dangerous."

Yu Dechen pointed to himself, then to Ma Yan and Wang Chengye, and said, "We are the Military Intelligence Department."

Ma Yan pointed to the basket in his hand.

"He won't eat this earlier, can you give it to me?"
