Chapter 185
After entering the Great Wall from the north of Anding County, the rest of the way is much easier.
If it hadn't been frozen in winter, Tian Chou and others could have taken advantage of the Qingshui River to go south, then boarded a boat near Jingyang and followed the Jing River straight to Chang'an.
Ke Muzhi was not stingy with these guests who came from afar. He not only replenished supplies for Tian Chou and others, but also gave them a few good horses with a wave of his hand for them to go on their way - after all, they were going to Chang'an, maybe they could get there in Xiaoxu What kind of words can you say for yourself in front of Lang Guan?
Well, by the way, the horses that were accidentally raised to death during this period can also be included in this gift, and I can take the opportunity to settle accounts or something.
Ke Muzhi felt that he was simply a genius!
Thanks to his generosity, the Youzhou envoy saved a lot of detours to purchase supplies and horses, and progressed much faster than the original timeline. They went straight to Chang'an with Liu Yu's memorial to the emperor. And go.
Now, there are still more than ten days before they step into Yongcheng Gate, and their fate has already begun to change.
Because Xu Jiashu took action.
Before uploading the simulation record, he had already written down all the key time points and major events that occurred.
The first thing in front of us is the twelfth lunar month in fourteen days.
Xu Jiashu in the simulation met Diao Chan for the second time at this point in time. However, due to his too cold behavior, Diao Chan's initial favorability dropped. It took a lot of effort to recover, and then from Xun You's mouth, I learned that Wang Yun was trying to use a beauty trap to drive a wedge between Niu Fu and the Dong family.
If we do it again, the strategy will be different. At least assassinating Niu Fu or something like that is impossible.
For Xu Jiashu, Niu Fu not only cannot die, but also lives well - as long as this man is still there, he can firmly suppress the Xiliang army generals and make them unable to get ahead.
Especially Jia Xu, I really don’t want to taste the feeling of being his enemy again. Anyway, Jia Wenhe’s character has always been low-key and cautious. He is the type who can’t stand out if he can’t. As long as Niu Fu is alive, there is no need to worry about him taking the initiative. .
In this way, the question naturally becomes, how to make Wang Yun maintain the status quo and give up the idea of using alienation tactics?
"Do you really mean what Zimao said?!" Wang Yun's eyes narrowed and he said coldly: "Yuan Benchu was born in the Yuan family of Runan, and he was born in Han Dynasty. How dare he do such a thing without a father or a king?"
Due to Li Ru's suppression, these court officials in Chang'an City actually had very little information. Although Wang Yun's treatment was slightly better, Yuan Shao's attempt to support Liu Yu was rejected at the stage of secret room politics. spread to the Chang'an court.
This is also the reason why he is always ready to make moves: like two wild beasts locked in a cage, if there is no interference from external factors, naturally they can only focus on fighting in the nest.
"It's absolutely true." Xu Jiashu straightened his face and echoed with an angry look on his face: "Not only that, he and Yuan Shu each sent governors to Yuzhou and were openly fighting to seize the imperial prefectures and counties, and the princes also took sides. Treat the Emperor as nothing!"
He kept telling bad news one after another, naturally in order to scare Wang Yun - the princes outside are all going to be stupid. At this time, don't think about making trouble. If you are killed by the rebellious ministers and traitors in the east, After all, how can you, Situ, be left behind?
You must know that Dong Zhuo had previously sent five ministers headed by Dahong Lu and Han Rong as envoys to lobby the Kwantung princes in an attempt to divide and disintegrate the coalition forces. Among them were the unlucky Shaofu Yinxiu and Wu Fu's former Yueqi captain.
The fate of these people was that they were all killed and no one was spared.
Since the princes have raised the banner of anti-Dong, they naturally don't mind using the blood of ministers to express their positions, and the higher the official position and the more famous the scholars, the better the effect of killing them. As for Wang Yun, he happened to be The top offering.
Even if Wang Yun reveals his identity as an undercover agent and says, "I'm sorry, I'm a police officer," they will just say, "Do you know anyone?" and then push him down and chop him down. He might die after death. He also needs to be severely disgraced as a model of surrender.
This is very uncomfortable
Wang Paizhu was buried up to his neck in loess, and being ruined was more frightening to him than death.
Seeing Wang Yun at the top holding the wine bottle with a gloomy expression on his face, Xu Jiashu couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction - that's right. I advise you, an old rat tail juice, to reflect carefully. The court must value peace. We must practice martial ethics and avoid fighting among ourselves.
If you really have nothing to do, just take a closer look at the two brothers Yuan Benchu and Yuan Jiujiu in the east. They are the most serious trouble for the imperial court!
After hearing this information, Wang Yun did start to hesitate.
If the context of "clear current" and "turbid current" are removed, the conflict between him and Dong is actually very simple. It is a simple power struggle between warlords and ministers. The thing they are fighting for is nothing more than what the little emperor Liu Xie holds. Just imperial power.
To put it bluntly, everyone is essentially relying on the banner of the orthodox emperor to get around.
But the group of rebellious ministers and traitors to the east have begun to openly regard the states and counties as private property that can be snatched, and even have the idea of establishing a new king. This is to dig into the foundation of the Chang'an court and destroy the jobs of Wang Situ and the Dong family. .
If Dong Zhuo was still there, Wang Yun might have thought of temporarily tolerating it, uniting with the princes to destroy Dong Zhuo and then reviving the imperial court. But Dong Zhuo was dead long ago, and there was no strong enemy in the east, so he might as well just hunt down the rabbit. , and he was destroyed together!
For those who play politics, distinguishing between ourselves and the enemy is the most basic ability. Under Xu Jiashu's reminder, Wang Yun soon discovered that if the two sides in Chang'an City continued to be at war with each other, this big man might really be in trouble.
"Liu Bo'an is the elder of the clan, and his son is serving the emperor, so he can't understand it." Wang Yun shook his head to himself, not knowing whether he was answering Xu Jiashu or comforting himself, "The matter of supporting the emperor is just It’s just Yuan Benchu’s wishful thinking.”
Xu Jiashu didn't answer, but took another sip of hot tea.
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will sprout. As long as Wang Yun realizes that he and Dong have common interests to a certain extent, the rest will be natural, plus he and Xun You are having fun together. , enough for Wang Situ to temporarily restrain his desire to seize power.
If the scholars are willing to tolerate or even cooperate, they will be allies that no force will refuse.
After all, it is the end of 190 AD. If you want to rule the land of the Han Dynasty, there is no other way except relying on this class called scholars.
The reason why Li Ru was able to evade the government was because the current Chang'an court's sphere of influence was extremely shrinking, and there was no "government" at all. As long as the situation improved slightly, he would have to hand over power to this system that had been running and evolving for more than [-] years. year’s political system.
The last person who wanted to find a different path dates back to Wang Mang.
Therefore, the Xiliang Army not only has no interest in controlling the government for a long time, but also has no ability to control the government for a long time. Everything they are doing now is just a temporary measure after Dong Zhuo's death, just to survive.
As long as Wang Yun doesn't cause trouble and doesn't reveal his identity as an undercover agent, it will be very simple for him to gradually take back the authority of the Chancellor.
"Zimao will come more often in the future." Before leaving, Wang Yun rarely got up to see him off, and kindly warned: "Zimao needs to take more trouble to investigate the matters in Guandong."
You guys did a good job, please give me more information in the future.
"I will do whatever I can," Xu Jiashu responded: "The current situation is very difficult, I hope Situ will endure it for the sake of the country."
Lao Deng, please calm down a little bit.
The two smiled at each other.
In the next ten days or so, as Xu Jiashu expected, Wang Yun stayed at the house honestly and did not try to make any further moves to disrupt the situation.
As for the Guandong side, after Yuan Shu and Cao Cao, mainly Yuan Shu, refused to support the new emperor, Wang Situ frequently showed his favor to Dong Min. The position of Sima.
Dong Min, under Li Ru's instruction, recommended Wang Yun to replace Liu Yu as Taifu. Anyway, the position of Taifu that Dong Zhuo wanted to give to Liu Bo'an during his lifetime was not given out in the end. The two people tacitly agreed to divide Liu Yu's official positions except for the state pastor and the title, which showed the court's suspicion of this important official of the clan.
In an atmosphere of unity and harmony in Chang'an, the twelfth lunar month is approaching.
Xu Jiashu's house was bustling with activity, so Sun Zi and others didn't need to say much. Diao Chan also appeared as in the simulation, still dressed up carefully. The peerless beauty looked even more delicate and charming against the plain environment, turning her into a beautiful woman. Everyone's eyes were firmly attracted to it.
Xu Jiashu silently took out his notes - or the second week guide, and saw a simple line written on it: [Diao Chan will be a guest on the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, so be polite to her].
That's it? Is it too simple?
"It turns out she is the accountant's daughter." He straightened his clothes, stepped forward and asked with a smile, "Miss Diaochan, are you okay?"
Is it enough to have a tanuki?
In the middle of the banquet, when the guests and hosts were enjoying themselves, a burst of rapid and scattered horse hooves suddenly sounded outside the door. Without Xu Jiashu opening his mouth, Sun Zi put down the wine bottle in his hand, stood up and went to the door to check.
After a while, I saw him returning to the table.
"Teacher", Sun Zi whispered in Xu Jiashu's ear: "There is a visitor outside the door, claiming to be Youzhou Tianchou."
He has also heard of Tian Chou's name - after all, in the Han Dynasty, hermits are often very famous. As far away as Fazhen from Xi County decades ago, and as recently as Guan Ning from Beihai County, they are all world-famous hermits. .
"Tian Zitai?" Xu Jiashu asked curiously: "Why did he come to my place?"
Although in the simulation he mainly stayed at home to increase Diao Chan's favorability, Tian Chou was an old acquaintance.
In the historical Three Kingdoms games, although Youzhou has Zhao Yun and a group of cavalry generals from the Gongsun family, the civil service is really lackluster. Tian Chou is one of the few available people, and he is a figure who is bound to be mediocre in every position.
Although he has met many historical celebrities, Xu Jiashu couldn't help but be a little excited when he finally found an old acquaintance - Zhao Yun and the three Taoyuan brothers were all in the area at this time. If he could win over Tian Chou, a famous hermit in Youzhou , maybe you can get online!
Tian Chou strode in. He was completely different from the arrogant portrait given by An Shai. He was extremely tall and majestic. Although he was a hermit, he had the air of a heroic hero from Yan and Zhao.
He cupped his hands and asked loudly: "I heard Xu Zimao said that when friends come, there is wine, and when jackals come, there are spears. But I don't know if I am harassing you on the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, is it a friend or a jackal?"
"Since it's Zitai who's visiting, I'll have enough wine!" Xu Jiashu replied with a smile.
But he suddenly remembered that there were not only big men here, but also a weak woman like Diao Chan. It would be bad if someone drank too much later and someone was not sharp and rude to the beauty.
"Miss Diaochan," he turned around and asked softly, "How about you avoid it first?"
Diao Chan thought he was chasing people away, so she nodded and stood up to leave.
This is also normal - now that we know her status as a singer, it would be good to treat everyone equally. Since there are distinguished guests coming, what if people know that the dignified Xu Zimao treats a singer with great courtesy? Wouldn't it be spread out? Became a joke?
Having said that, Diao Chan stood up to straighten her clothes, feeling a burst of sadness in her heart.
So what if you put in all the effort to look glamorous? They are just entertaining people with sex. No matter how beautiful the singer is, they are just people who cannot be on the stage. If they meet some troublesome hermit from Youzhou, they have to go back to where they belong.
"Eh!"
Seeing her taking a deep breath and leaving towards the door, Xu Jiashu reached out and took her arm. When he took it, he could even feel the soft touch through the silk.
He felt like something was wrong - who promised to be more polite to Diao Chan?
Why did he suddenly start acting hooligan again!
Xu Jiashu quickly moved his hands away as if he had been electrocuted. Diao Chan thought that this disciple wanted to stay and perform songs and dances for fun, and tears almost came to her beautiful eyes.
What a shame!
Under Diao Chan's confused gaze, Xu Jiashu awkwardly pointed to the side door leading to the backyard, "Just go to the backyard and take shelter."
I didn't explain clearly at once, and I almost became the sinner of not letting women come to the table to eat.
so close.
"." After hearing this, Diao Chan was even more confused, "How can I go to Xu Langjun's backyard?"
This is the treatment of entering the palace, how could it be given to a singer?
"It's okay," Xu Jiashu quickly waved his hand and explained, "I originally invited you to come to the banquet, so why did I chase you away in the middle of the banquet? I'm just afraid that drinking later will cause trouble and I won't be able to take care of the girl."
Diao Chan blinked her seductive eyes, "Seriously?"
"Of course it's true." Xu Jiashu almost screwed up and said quickly: "Miss Diaochan, go quickly. I'll send someone to call you later."
"Okay then", Diao Chan nodded, "This is what Xu Langjun let me in."
After finally coaxing Diao Chan away, Xu Jiashu looked back and saw that Sun Zi had obediently given up the seat next to Xu Jiashu to Tian Chou.
"Although I don't know how Zitai knew Xu Zimao's name," Xu Jiashu sat down and breathed a sigh of relief, "I have come all the way to Chang'an. Is there anything important that I can help you with?"
This Youzhou envoy had only appeared in the text description. He did not know the specific composition of the personnel, so he asked this question.
"The reputation of Little Xu Langguan is like thunder in Youzhou." Tian Chou repeated what he said to Ke Muzhi on the Great Wall in a playful manner, "As for why he came to Chang'an."
"On Liu Bo'an's order, I am going to see the emperor!" he whispered.
It turned out to be you!
Xu Jiashu suddenly realized it, and then looked at Tian Chou with a complicated expression - Wang Yun's last trump card just fell into his hands?
