Chapter 425 Opportunity
Since the Battle of Luogu, all kinds of undercurrents in Shu have been turbulent, and gradually become clear.

Especially since the beginning of this year, Shang Shu ordered Chen Zhi to be seriously ill, and Huang Men ordered Huang Hao to be promoted to the position of Zhongchang Shi, and began to blatantly involve the government.

Since the end of the Han Dynasty, most of the eunuchs who served in the ranks had their power in the court, and Huang Hao was also like this.

However, everything has two sides. Huang Hao came to power, making Yizhou scholars and Jingzhou scholars united in the same hatred, and continued to impeach.

Huang Hao waits by the Lord Shu's side all day long. He is good at having fun, and he is very good at flattering and pleasing the Lord Shu. He has won the trust of the Lord Shu.

The objections of the scholars are ignored.

Huang Hao's power is growing.

In Yong'an, a large group of soldiers and common people gathered in front of the Governor's Mansion.

"Then what is Yan Yu's ability? But to flatter Huang Hao, but to replace the governor! How can there be such injustice in the world?" The soldiers beat their chests and stamped their feet one by one.

"The people of Dongzhou depend on the envoy to live, how can the governor abandon us?" The people wailed endlessly.

In his early years, Zong Yu followed Zhang Fei to Shu to help pacify Yizhou, and was appointed as the master book under Prime Minister Zhuge Liang, which can be regarded as both civil and military.

At the age of 60, Deng Zhi took over the town of Yong'an. In the past ten years, he has been conscientious, honest and honest, promoted talents and talents, opened up farmland, trained soldiers, and Dongzhou is quite prosperous.

So it is reasonable for the soldiers and the people to keep him.

The new governor, Yan Yu, is actually not the incompetent person that the soldiers said he was. He was born in the southern county of Jingzhou. Ma Zhong, the former governor, surrendered to the governor.

Just because he took refuge in Huang Hao, the soldiers were quite disdainful.

The gate of the Dudu Mansion suddenly opened, and Zong Yu walked out surrounded by a row of personal soldiers.

At that time, Zong Yu was already seventy-one, and his body was indeed overwhelmed. His body was broken, his head was full of white hair, and his old eyes swept across the crowd. Before he could speak, he coughed for a while, and every time he coughed, his body became bent point.

His voice was also weak, "Don't persuade me anymore, I am old and weak, and I can no longer bear the heavy responsibility of Your Majesty, so Your Majesty recalled Chengdu Enyang, you are all my fellow citizens, if you still care about the old For the affection of the year, you should respect Yan Dudu as you respect an old man."

After listening to Zong Yu's words, the soldiers and common people who had been raging suddenly became peaceful.

Zong Yu charged the crowd deeply, and then got into the carriage with the support of his own soldiers.

The crowd became more silent and automatically moved out of the way.

The car rattled, Ma Xiaoxiao walked all the way to the depths of the green hills.

Among the crowd, Linghu Sheng let out a long sigh.

Three years ago, he and Shan Gu entered Xiping on the way of Shu, and were detained here.

He has planned to escape to the west many times, but the east of Yong'an is full of passes blocked by mountains and rivers. Linghu Yu doesn't know how to swim, and Shan Gu has no strength to restrain a chicken. It is difficult and dangerous to escape.

Yong'an was originally the east gate of the Shu Kingdom, and it has always been strictly guarded and strictly investigated internally and externally.

Zong Yu ruled the army strictly and supervised him strictly, so Linghu Sheng couldn't find a chance to escape for a while.

After staying in Yong'an for a long time, people get used to it, and they still marry wives and have children under the arrangement of their bosses.

Once a person has a home, his heart will be at peace.

From Yong'an to Xiping, there are thousands of mountains and rivers.

The risks in this day and age can be imagined.

Relying on his civil and military skills, Linghu Sheng was promoted step by step, and he became Qu Chang, with five hundred soldiers under his command.

Shan Gu also became an official of the Dudu Mansion.

In a flash, it was more than three years.

Zong Yu's resignation today made Linghu Sheng wake up suddenly, and the days of stability are about to go away.

The big tree in Shu also began to shake.

During the battle of Duangu last year, the most enterprising elites of Shu were scattered and displaced.

Any force that does not expand externally will inevitably fall into involution.

The battle between the Jingzhou faction and the Yizhou faction became more and more intense.

Now another Huang Hao popped up, unexpectedly temporarily suspending the cold war between the Jingzhou faction and the Yizhou faction.

However, the Cold War was temporarily suspended, and open battles followed one after another.

It may be Huang Hao's temptation to replace the respected Jingzhou elder Zongyu with Yan Yu.

"This is the Lord Shu's use of Huang Hao to suppress the scholars in Jingzhou! The Duan Gu War is about the life and death of the Kingdom of Shu, and Hu Ji actually stood still, causing Jiang Wei's Northern Expedition to fail completely. Now the Lord Shu's counterattack is coming." Shan Gu took a sip of wine and said in a low voice. .

The two talked in secret, both deeply moved.

Under Zong Yu, as long as he works hard, he will not fail to get promoted.

But now that Zong Yu has left office, the road ahead has become murky.

"Using Huang Hao is brilliant, but the hidden danger is even greater. The chaos of the ten servants at the end of the Han Dynasty is not far away." Linghu Sheng used to like to drink, but since entering Shu, he has given up drinking, and he has become more cautious and cautious in everything he does. To never take the initiative to contact Liangzhou.

"Does the Lord of Shu have any choice? Jiang Wei's tiger infantry army is lost, and the military power of the Jingzhou faction is getting more and more powerful. We can only rely on Huang Hao, a vicious dog, to do what the Lord of Shu can't do."

More than three years is enough for them to understand a lot of things.

"I'm afraid this vicious dog won't be too obedient in the future." Linghu Sheng said.

Shan Gu put down the wine bowl, and said earnestly: "Then can I contact the general now? I am old, and it will be the same wherever I am buried, but you are still young and have a lot to do. If you don't make some meritorious deeds, there will be no place for you in Liangzhou in the future." landed."

Linghu Sheng was taken aback, "You mean..."

Shan Gu smiled, "If you don't use Huang Hao, the Kingdom of Shu will perish. If you use Huang Hao, the Kingdom of Shu will also perish. I heard a nursery rhyme a few days ago. The sun is scorching, and the willows are green. Don't chase the horses in the east mountain, but follow the clouds in the west mountain." Dongshan Ma is the Kanto Sima family, and who Xishan Yun is, don't I need to say more?"

"In this way, the general has a heart for Shuzhong?"

"After the Yellow Turban, the world has been in chaos for 74 years. The Han lost its deer, and the whole world pursued it. Shu lost its deer. How can the world not chase it? Guanzhong has been fighting for many years, and it has long since withered. Only by taking Shuzhong, Liangzhou has the strength to compete with Sima."

Shan Gu seemed to have drunk too much, and now he said everything he didn't dare to say.

Linghu Sheng couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

He is now in a different state of mind than he was three years ago.

Back then, he was burdened with the hatred of exterminating his family, so he wished he could immediately fight the Sima family to the death.

But with the tranquility of the past few years, his mentality has gradually changed.

Sima father and son relayed the three-person relay. By Sima Zhao's generation, the country has been stabilized, and there are only two or three steps left.

With the current strength of Liangzhou, it is still not enough to fight against the Kwantung Tribunal, let alone kill Sima.

This is also one of the reasons why Linghu Sheng stayed in Yong'an disheartened.

"So, it's time for you to make preparations." Shan Gu's eyes were full of drunkenness.

"what can I do?"

"Based on your ability, a Qu Zhang is too wronged. Now that Huang Hao has risen and Yan Yu has just taken office, it's time to employ people. If you can follow Yan Yu to climb up, you will have a chance."

"You asked me to join an eunuch?" If it was three years ago, Linghu Sheng left on the spot.

"There is only one opportunity. Whether you want to seize it is up to you. In fact, staying in Yong'an, hidden in the middle of the market, is not a bad idea, as long as you can let go of the hatred of extermination." Shan Gu drank another bowl of wine.

The revenge of the genocide...

The confusion and hatred in Linghu Sheng's eyes were constantly intertwined, and his breathing gradually became heavy, "If a man is alive, if he does not avenge the annihilation of the clan, he will be in vain. As long as I have a breath, I will never die with Sima!"
