Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 191 Xie An Goes Out of the Mountain

Chapter 195 Xie An Comes Out of the Mountain

When Sima Xi heard the words, he thought about it carefully.At the beginning, Ran Min made three requests to join the Jin Dynasty, but most of the ministers in the court objected, thinking that the time for the Northern Expedition was not yet ripe, so he did not reply.

According to the strength of the Jin Dynasty at that time, it did not have the strength of the Northern Expedition.

But he was also afraid of taking on the responsibility of the people in the Central Plains who were waiting to be fed, which would become his heavy burden.

The land of the Central Plains is now devastated, with thousands of miles of barren land, no output, only consumption.

Sima Xi sighed for a long time, they are all short-sighted people.

Sima Yu said: "In the opinion of the Empress Dowager?"

"The bandit Wen is tyrannical. He really belongs to Cao Cao of the Jin Dynasty. He is as evil as a tiger. There is another fierce tiger lying in the north. Why don't you come and fight for food with two tigers?"

After the queen mothers finished speaking, they immediately stood up, pulled the little emperor and said, "Emperor, go back with me."

After the empress dowagers left, the four people looked at each other, Cai Mo kowtowed and said, "I send you off to the empress dowager!"

Sima Xi, Sima Yu, and Wang Shu also hurriedly said: "I respectfully send the Queen Mother off."

Cai Mo looked at Zhu Suanzi's back, a ray of sunshine appeared in his heart, and the obscurity on his face was swept away.Can't help but shoot the case. "The empress dowager's scheme is very good. What do you two princes think, Wang Shangshu?"

Sima Xi said: "This is the best choice, it's just a plan to keep tigers from devouring wolves."

Wang Shu said with a smile: "Huan Wen is now the great Sima of the current dynasty, the Duke of Nanjun, and he has become the halo of the Han Dynasty after being exterminated. He holds the power to mobilize the world's troops and horses. Sergeant, you are the king of Wei, and you are in charge of the military affairs of the eight states of You, Bing, Ji, Yan, Qing, Yong, Qin, and Liang, what do you think?"

But Sima Yu said without hesitation: "That's great. Ran Min has 10 cavalry under his command, and his foundation is in the north, so there is no danger to us."

Cai Mo hesitated and said, "I'm afraid Ran Min has been the Emperor of Wei for three years, but he doesn't want to give up the emperor's title and respect the Jin family, so what if?"

Sima Xi sighed: "If Min doesn't get rid of the emperor's title and doesn't honor the imperial family, then that's the case of the Guozhuo of the Great Jin Dynasty. God will not bless the Great Jin Dynasty!"

Cai Mo said: "My lord agrees?"

Sima Xi asked back: "Is there a better way for Cai Shizhong? Driving away wolves and tigers is the best choice at present. Ran Min Ruozun, the strategy of controlling tigers is actually a better solution. Don't you guys realize that Wei Guo has already been growing? Muxi Mountain?"

All three nodded in agreement.

"The Battle of Liantai was Ran Min's last stand, but it was initiated by Ran Min at the beginning, but in the end it was fought by Ran Min's second son, the king of Chu. Gu also got the news that this son uses soldiers like a god, and he will win every battle and attack." Ke, what's more rare is that his son is so talented. He wrote a book called "Thousand Characters", which can be called a treasure of enlightenment? There is also a copy of "36 Strategies" written by Ran Ming. This book is the soul treasure of the art of war. Although it is slightly deficient compared with "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and "Sun Bin's Art of War", each of them has its own merits."

Sima Xi couldn't help laughing and said, "Ran Min doesn't need to come to Ye, and his eldest son, Zhi, doesn't need to be a hostage. As long as his son Ming is in Jiankang as a hostage, Ran Min will be subject to Jin!"

Cai Mo's flattery of "The prince's ingenious plan" was delivered immediately.

Sima Xi said: "Cai Shizhong's wonderful pen is full of flowers, and the memorial still needs to trouble Mr. Cai."

Sima Yu said: "Who is the envoy? This matter should be done quickly. If it is too late, it will be dangerous."

Sima Xi didn't speak. He didn't know much about the ministers in the court. What Sima Xi knew best was military affairs.

After pondering for a moment, Cai Mo said softly: "My lord, there is a son of Wang Shangshu, Tanzhi, who is literary and quick-witted. Into the Huangmen servant, appointed as Qin, as an envoy, go to Yecheng!"

Wang Shu gave Cai Mo a hard look. This is a great achievement, but it is also extremely dangerous.However, before he had time to block it, Sima Yu said, "That's very good!"

Sima Xi also nodded, "You can figure it out, Gu will not participate in this matter!"

Wang Shu had no choice but to hold back the words in his heart.

Seeing Wang Shu's appearance, Cai Mo glanced at Wang Shu deeply and said, "What else does Wang Shu want to do?"

Wang Shudao: "I think it's difficult to take on this important task based on frankness alone. I heard that Xie Renzu's younger brother Xie An, who came from a famous family and has good talents and learning, should be added as a deputy envoy!"

"Also!"

Wang Shu said it very easily, but in fact, he didn't have a bottom line in his heart.

Although Xie An is well-known among scholars, everyone thinks he is quite talented.But this person is free and easy, and has no intention of official career at all.

Whether Xie An can be persuaded to serve the court has become Wang Shu's heart disease at this time.

After the dynasty was over, Wang Shu took Wang Tanzhi to Dongshan in Kuaiji.

There is also a famous allusion about Xie An, which is called comeback.This is because Xie An is open-minded and generous, and it is his duty to teach his nephews to learn.He often travels in the mountains and rivers with Wang Xizhi, Sun Chuo, Wang Tanzhi and other famous scholars in the officialdom, and puts his love on the mountains and rivers.It was not until all the talents in the center of the Xie family were transferred away that Xie An became an official. He outwitted Huan Wen, the powerful official of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and commanded the soldiers and civilians of the Jin Dynasty to win the battle of Feishui, wiped out Fu Jian's million-strong army, and saved the Eastern Jin Dynasty The order of the imperial court's demise.

Because of the appearance of Ran Ming, a butterfly from another world, history has long been changed beyond recognition. Because of Ran Ming's appearance, Xie An became an official seven years earlier than in the parallel history.

In front of Wang Shu, Xie An felt a little guilty, he knew that he was a strong man, and he was a bit suspected of dragging people into trouble.But he had no choice, so Cai Mo recommended Wang Tanzhi as an envoy to the state of Wei.

This task is completed, everything is fine, Wang Tanzhi's future career will be smooth sailing.But just relying on the three letters of invitation from three years ago and the lingering passion to persuade Ran Min to surrender to the Jin Dynasty, the difficulty is undoubtedly empty-handed.

In Xie An's Dongshan residence study, Xie An sat opposite Wang Shu and Wang Tanzhi.

Although Wang Shu did not explain his purpose of coming, Xie An also guessed a little clue when a court minister ordered him to visit.In recent years, many people have persuaded Xie An to become an official, and Xie An did not take it seriously.

Anyway, his attitude is very clear, to train the next generation of successors for the Xie family.Because it can be seen, Xie An's vision is still quite far away.

Xie An's attitude towards Wang Shu is still very warm, after all he and Wang Shu are considered relatives.

Wang Shuzhi and Queen Quan married Xie An's younger brother Xie Wan as his wife.The marriage between the Wang family of Taiyuan and the Xie family of Chenjun was also a common way to maintain the relationship between the noble families at that time.

Xie An was not only related by marriage to the Wang family of Taiyuan, but also to the Wang family of Langya.Even if the current empress dowager, Chu Suanzi, is actually the daughter of Xie Shangzhi and Xie Zhenshi, in terms of seniority, Xie An is still Chu Suanzi's uncle.

Xie An respected Wang Shu with a glass of wine, and said with a smile, "I don't know that Wang Shibo is so elegant today, come to live with me here in Dongshan?"

"Nowadays the imperial court is troubled, and I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing." Wang Shu took up his glass and drank it, smiled and said: "According to the Queen Mother's order, I sent envoys to Wei. Jin!"

Xie An was not surprised when he heard that, according to his thinking, the imperial court would definitely think of this trick to drive away the wolves, but it came later than he imagined.

Xie An said: "This is a good move. The Lord of Wei, Ran Min, is brave and good at fighting. He has fought hundreds of battles in his life, and he is rarely defeated. The Wei army drove the Huyi, fought against the Yanhu, and retreated the Xiongnu, and made great achievements. Besides, the Wei army is not weak, and there is no lack of important forces. Cavalry, light cavalry, heavy step, crossbow, and naval forces are more well-trained and experienced in combat. If they are attached to Jin, they will definitely make the Taiwei afraid. Since ancient times, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and when two tigers fight, one will be injured . Da Jin can sit back and relax!"

Wang Shu nodded and gave Wang Tanzhi a wink.

Wang Shu understood, cupped his hands at Xie An and said, "Frank is not talented, and was recommended by Master Situ Cai as the Wei envoy this time. I don't know what tricks Brother An Shi has to teach me."

"Brother Wendu, don't worry, this trip will definitely go very smoothly." Xie An said with a smile: "Wei Lord Ran Min's heart is towards the Great Jin Dynasty, and this trip is exactly what Ran Min wants, and it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. However, at this time, the State of Wei defeated the Southern Invasion The country of Yan happened to be in civil strife again, and had no intention of going south. Fu Jian of the Western Qin Dynasty was defeated by Ran Ming, and Qin established a new master. Fu Sheng was young and immoral, and had a cruel temperament. Worry about the future, it will be very difficult to persuade Wei to be attached to the country this time!"

Wang Tanzhi worried: "What should I do?"

Xie An smiled faintly: "Wendu don't have to worry, just do what he likes, and he will succeed in no time! At this time, although Jin has lost the Central Plains, it still occupies the name of righteousness. The truth of orthodoxy is what the people of the world aspire to. War time It doesn't matter, we can still be consistent with the outside world, but at this time, once the crisis of Wei State is over, the northern countries will pose a threat to Wei Wuli for at least a few years, and once the external troubles are eliminated, internal troubles will inevitably arise. Doesn't Lord Wei know the tricks?"

Wang Tanzhi was silent.

At this moment, Xie An's wife Liu entered the study.

Liu was the younger sister of Liu Yan in the Eastern Jin Dynasty at that time, virtuous and dignified, she saw that Xie Shang, Xie Yi, Xie Wan and others in the Xie family were all high-ranking and powerful, only Xie Anyin could not retreat, she once said to Wang Tan: "Wendu, there have been great changes in the past few years. Anshi Xinian's friends have all gone their own way. Wang Xizhi has moved to General Ningyuan, secretary Lang. Sun Chuo, official worship Doctor of Taixue (university professor), Shang Shulang (by the emperor's side) Dealing with government affairs). In charge of Zhuo Lang (responsible for drafting documents). Only Anshi still has no job. The man should be worthy of the heavens and the people of Li. Now the Jin Dynasty is still in troubled times, and there are strong enemies outside With a covetous eye and a domineering official inside, why don't you persuade An Shi, Wen Du, to let him become an official, which can not only realize his ambition, but also relieve the family's embarrassment!"

Wang Tanzhi stood up and said, "Madam, don't worry, Wen Du is also here for this matter."

Wang Shu quickly took out a scroll from his pocket and gave it to Xie An.

Xie An opened it and saw that it was a letter of appointment from the Huangmen servant. Xie An smiled wryly, "This is a bit too..."

Wang Shudao: "The virtuous nephew is still busy refusing to grant it. Please listen to the old man come one by one!"

"Sir, please tell me!"
