218 Marriage
Prime Minister Benevolence!

Yu Wenshang didn't say it clearly, but he couldn't help admiring in his heart.

If it is still the time when the Great Sui Dynasty was in full swing and at its peak, then overseas feudal affairs would definitely be one-on-one drudgery, something that the children of the Great Sui clan would avoid. One day it will be wiped out now, but that is tantamount to leaving a bloodline for the Sui imperial family, a great kindness.

Except for the accident of Yang Gao, the third emperor of the Sui Dynasty who was still immersed in the joy of becoming emperor, let alone Yang Xiu, a sad prince who had been imprisoned for 20 years by Emperor Wen of Sui and Emperor Yang of Sui for his poor reputation.

Even Yang You, Emperor Gong of the Sui Dynasty who was also supported by the Li family as emperor, and Yang Tong, the king of Yue who was intelligent and generous since he was a child, but who is in Luoyang at this time, is trembling every day, fearing that Li Mi will break into the city tomorrow. They will all wish for this, and wish they could go overseas tomorrow, away from the right and wrong of the Central Plains.

The current Luzon Island is indeed not a good place, but a barren land where miasma is rampant, but no matter how poisonous the miasma on the overseas islands is, it is not as poisonous as the medicine of opportunity, the red crest of the crane!

"Lord Yuwen, if you have no objection, then Yuwen Zhiji will make such an arrangement!"

Chu Tianxiu's arrangement is not only a relegation, but also a gift.

Yu Wenzhi and being relegated to an overseas place can not only leave him a little life, but also give the world an explanation, and by the way, leave a bloodline and a way out for the Yuwen Clan, Yu Wenshang will naturally not disagree.

"In addition to Yuwen Zhiji, although Yuwen Shiji in your clan did not directly participate in this matter, there are still some entanglements after all, so I demoted the official by a few levels and transferred to Xiangyang City to serve as the prefect to help me guard This Jingzhou gate! As for you, the lord, I will redesignate you as the governor of Hebei Province, commanding all military affairs in Hebei, and military affairs up and down, all can be decided by you, and I will never ask."

After Chu Tianxiu finished arranging Yuwen Zhiji, he threw two bombs wrapped in honey at Yu Wenshang.

After Yu Wenshang hesitated for a moment, a bright light appeared in his eyes, and he said decisively:

"The governor of Xiangyang? The head of Hebei Road? Since the prime minister trusts the old man and Yuwen Shiji so much, my Yuwen family is naturally willing to help the prime minister guard these two barriers."

Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox, and there is no need for anyone to play Liaozhai.The meanings of Chu Tianxiu's two appointments are almost obvious. As long as Yu Wenshang still has ambitions in his heart, he will naturally agree to this matter.

Xiangyang City is located in Jingzhou, bordering Bashu in the west, controlling Hunan and Chu in the south, and Heluo in the north. It is the throat fortress in the south and the most critical strategic location.

During the Three Kingdoms period, Wei, Shu, and Wu fought for this city. The Western Jin Dynasty conquered Wu, and Huanwen Northern Expedition all took Xiangyang as their base.

Therefore, the existence of Xiangyang is not the city of Chang'an and Luoyang, but it is an extremely critical transportation hub. No matter if you want to go south from the Central Plains, or enter the Jianghan Plain from Guanzhong, you must first take Xiangyang. A battleground for upright military strategists.

According to common sense, Chu Tianxiu must hold such a key city in the palm of his hand, and should never give it to outsiders. Unfortunately, although Xiangyang is good, it is far away from Jiangdu. Only when these three forces have been balanced can he set foot on this city, otherwise, even if he can take this enclave, he will have to fall into a situation where he faces the enemy on three sides and is restrained everywhere.

In addition, the most important thing is that although Xiangyang is still in the hands of the Xiangyang prefect, it is still under the control of the Sui Dynasty, but the former Xiangyang prefect is a cowardly and incompetent person. Qian Duguan, the boss of the largest gang, the Hanshui Gang, is under the control of Qian Duguan, who is also a dark son of the Yingui Sect and has the strong support of the Yingui Sect.

So the current Xiangyang City is actually a big pit.Unless Chu Tianxiu went to Xiangyang in person and sat there, even if he sent Li Jing and Hong Fu Nu there, they might not be able to withstand the arrangement and assassination of "Queen of Yin" Zhu Yuyan. Let the Yingui faction be a little more afraid, as the prefect of Xiangyang County.

Chu Tianxiu dispatched Yu Wenshang to Hebei to serve as the general manager of Hebei Road, which is almost the same.

Nearly half of the current Hebei land is controlled by Dou Jiande, even though Chu Tianxiu canonized Luo Yi as the governor of Youzhou and ordered him to lead the army to suppress the Dou Jiande bandit rebellion in Hejian, and at the same time send someone to contact Wei Daoer, the leader of the rebel army in Dingzhou , made him the governor of Dingzhou, and on this condition, invited him to join forces to destroy Dou Jiande,

But just like Chu Tianxiu didn't think that his arrangements in Chang'an could trap Li Clan to death, he also didn't think he could trap Dou Jiande to death with two imperial edicts.

In Chu Tianxiu's eyes, only by sending Yuwenshang to Hebei and fighting against him with the background of the Yuwen Clan can he temporarily resist Dou Jiande and prevent him from going south, so that he can calmly annex and digest the land of Shandong and This is the foundation.

As for whether his behavior is letting the tiger go back to the mountain, making the Yuwen faction difficult to deal with——

It wasn't that Chu Tianxiu looked down on Yuwen Clan, but after Yu Wenhua and this core figure died, with the ability of Yuwen Clan, being able to help him temporarily resist Dou Jiande and prevent him from going south was enough to make him burn high!The situation is too difficult to rule, and the Yuwen Clan must have that ability!
Of course, Yu Wenshang would not be ignorant of Chu Tianxiu's conspiracy, but given the current situation of the Yu Wen Clan, he was like a person who was about to drown, even if it was just a straw on the water, he had to grasp it firmly. Not to mention two pieces of fat that looked delicious!
This was an overt conspiracy, and the Yuwen Clan couldn't help but not agree.

However, Yu Wenshang is an old fox, even if he agrees to Chu Tianxiu's condition, it will not make Chu Tianxiu's life easier, making Chu Tianxiu feel that after he is done, he directly proposes a condition to Chu Tianxiu. Take him into the army:
"Prime Minister, my brother Yu Wenshu has a daughter named Yu Wen Zhaoyi, who is virtuous and beautiful. I would like to offer her to the Prime Minister as a concubine. I wonder if the Prime Minister will be willing?"

When talking about this, Yu Wenshang's voice paused for a moment, with a smug look in his eyes, he said again:
"Although this is a little bit unreasonable, but we Xianbei people don't pay attention to this! And in order to repay the prime minister's kindness, I will naturally order someone to take the lead in a few days later to make the little emperor the prime minister. King of Chu. If that time comes, Zhaoyi will naturally become the Princess of Chu, and it will not be regarded as humiliating her identity."

marriage?King?
After Chu Tianxiu heard the words, he couldn't help being slightly taken aback. He never thought that Yu Wenshang, an old bastard, would do this.

The matter of becoming a king can be ignored.Under the current situation, the little emperor made himself king, but it was just a matter of left and right. Apart from a nice name, it actually had no practical meaning.

The real key lies in marriage.

Since ancient times, there have been many means of alliances, but the means of marriage is definitely the most effective one. If Chu Tianxiu accepts Yuwen Zhaoyi, then he has established an absolute strategic alliance with the Yuwen Clan. It is impossible to entrap the Yuwen Valve at will like today.

But in this matter, Chu Tianxiu had to respond.

Yu Wenshang's attitude was low enough, he didn't force Chu Tianxiu to marry Yu Wen Zhaoyi as his wife, but only wanted the position of a concubine.If Chu Tianxiu doesn't even agree to this condition, then Yuwen hurts this old fox, and I'm afraid he has to think about how much Chu Tianxiu's integrity is.
