Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 205

Chapter 209

At the same time, Huan Wen, who was in Pengpo Town, did not intend to procrastinate in the slightest. After sending Meng Jia to Luoyang to discuss with the Wei army, he immediately ordered the troops to withdraw from camp and return to the division.

Looking at the busy soldiers.

Huan Wen suddenly said to Xi Chao who was beside him: "Master, do you think it is possible for me to reconcile with that Ran Min?"

The vast sea ran out of ice, and the sad clouds were bleak.

At this time, it happened that Huan Wen's state of mind could be described.Huan Wen, who had entered the age of [-], seemed to have aged a lot all of a sudden.Huan Wen didn't feel regret, but he was full of regret for himself!
I originally wanted to use the Northern Expedition to build up my own reputation and achieve unworldly achievements.

But in the end, it turned out to be a flower in the mirror, a moon in the water, a laborious waste of money, and finally the bamboo basket fetched water in vain.

"Reconciliation?" Xi Chao obviously didn't think of this question.

According to his thinking, now Huan Wen's face is greatly damaged, being played and applauded by Ran Ming.The Xifu army suffered heavy losses. According to Huan Wen's character of always protecting his weaknesses, not to take revenge is obviously not Huan Wen's way of doing things.

Xi Chao obviously did not expect that Huan Wen would ask this question. He murmured: "Duke Ming, Chao thought that the Central Plains were dilapidated and the fields were barren. All of them are rebellious and powerful. Even if the general withdraws from the Central Plains, Wei State will be devastated in a short period of time. From some aspects, Wei State and the general have no conflict of interest. War will cause two harms, and cooperation It's double benefit!"

"What the guest said is very reasonable." Huan Wen said indifferently, "Guest, what should our Xifu army do in the future?"

Xi Chao stood up and said, "Ran Ming is quite ambitious. But he is not Ran Wei's prince. He has achieved great achievements. If nothing else, this time it will be Ran Ming who will lead the army for the last time. If Prince Ran Zhi wants to If you want to keep your position, you will try to get rid of Ran Ming’s wings. With the power of Duke Ming, apart from Ran Ming, Wei Guo’s general Dong Run, or the chariot general Zhang Wen are no match for Duke Ming! Dormancy should be the most important thing to save strength in secret. Minggong and Wei Guo are incompatible, so as to dispel the imperial court's fear of Minggong. At the same time, training the army..."

After hearing this, Huan Wen took it for granted.

In history, Han Sui and Ma Chao cooperated closely at first, but Cao Cao made a countermeasure and turned each other into enemies.The famous Jin Ma Chao was forced to surrender to Liu Bei.From being the overlord of one side, to becoming a farmer!

Huan Wen hated Ran Ming very much.Youdao is the hatred of killing one's father, and the hatred of taking one's wife is irreconcilable. Ran Ming still holds Huan Wen's wife in his hands. As for Sima Xingnan, even if Sima Xingnan and Huan Wen's relationship is not harmonious, they are always husband and wife.

Sima Xingnan represents Huan Wen's face.

Huan Wen said: "Guests, plan to come out!"

Xi Chao said indifferently: "Laozi said: if you want to get rid of it, you must hold it; if you want to take it, you must give it; if you want to destroy it, you must first learn it."

"Praise and kill?" Huan Wen understood what Xi Chao meant, but Xi Chao was really ruthless!
This is forcing Ran Ming to his death!Originally, Ran Ming defeated Murong Ke, seized Qingzhou, retreated from Diqin, and fought against Luoyang, all invincible.The more capable Ran Ming is, the more incompetent the prince will appear.

As a candidate for the throne, Ran Zhi must not allow a variable to exist.And Ran Ming is precisely the biggest variable in whether Ran Zhi can inherit the throne!
"Grandmaster Ming's opinion!" Xi Chao said with a little smile, "Minggong can send people into Ran Ming's Xueer Academy in Yecheng, and encourage the scholars of Xueer Academy who don't know the truth to write a letter on the bus, asking Wei Lord Ran Min to abolish Changli. Xian, take Ran Ming as the crown prince, and pretend to be a killer to assassinate the crown prince."

Huan Wen said: "Is this assassination a killing without killing? Let the dead man deliberately expose the target, and after being caught, pretend to be tortured, and be forced to reveal that Ran Ming sent someone to assassinate?"

"Xi Guan Ranmin, what he hates the most is fratricide! If the prince is killed, it will touch Ran Min's rebellion." Xi Chao said with a smile: "At that time, Ran Min will deprive Ran Ming of his right to lead the army and raise him up .”

Huan Wen said again: "I heard that the princes in the court actually sent envoys to contact Ran Min in order to deal with XX?"

Xi Chao nodded: "There is such a thing. It is Wang Tanzhi and Xie An who are envoys. Calculating the distance, they can reach Yecheng at the beginning of the month at most."

Huan Wen thought for a while and said, "Master, Wen has a little idea!"

Huan Wen is good at acting like a corporal who is respectful and virtuous.When he said he had an idea, he was actually just saying it implicitly. Xi Chao understood Huan Wen's personality, and in Huan Wen's heart, he probably already had a plan!

Huan Wen said: "What do you think will happen if the court agrees to Ran Min's position?"

Xi Chao was stunned, his thinking was a bit far-sighted.

Huan Wen's move can be described as vicious.The Jin family has long existed in name only, and the only thing left is a little righteous name in the hearts of the gentry and the common people.The Jin army is the co-lord of the world. Regardless of Yan, Dai, Qin, and Liang, they are all rebels in the eyes of the people of Jin and the gentry.

Including the past few years, the imperial court had already made a conclusion for Ran Min - he was not a minister and a traitor.

Now if the legitimacy of Ran Min's regime is recognized, it would be a slap in the face, a blatant slap in the face!

At the same time, this was also a test for Huan Wen.

If the Jin Dynasty dared to agree to the legal establishment of the Wei State, he could blatantly establish his Huanchu Empire!

Xi Chao said: "If the temptation is strong enough, the imperial court might agree!"

Huan Wen nodded. Now he and the court are almost in a state of semi-public breakup. The two sides are separated by a layer of window paper, which can be broken with just one poke.

Huan Wen said: "If it can be exchanged for Ran Min's restraint on me, maybe the imperial court will agree with this seemingly absurd opinion!"

Huan Wen's eyes were narrowed.He said to Xi Chao: "I am going to write a letter to Your Majesty, recommending guests as Zhongshu Ling!"

"Zhongshu Ling?" Xi Chao frowned when he heard this, and couldn't hide his joy in his heart.Zhongshuling is an official who helps the emperor handle government affairs in the court. If used properly, the actual power is greater than that of the prime minister. During the Jin Dynasty, Xie An served as Zhongshuling and was later promoted to prime minister.

Of course, Xi Chao had a reason to be happy. Since Huan Wen was pacified into the Han Dynasty, almost any opinion of the imperial court on Huan Wen was followed.

In the parallel history, Xi Chao stayed in Jiankang as the representative of Huan Wen in 357 to deal with the imperial court. Now due to the appearance of Ran Ming, Xi Chao has already manifested his functions in advance!
Huan Wen said: "The guest is very important to me. The first thing that Zhongshu ordered was to let the court take Ran Ming as a pledge as a unilateral condition to recognize Wei's status. If not. It will be stigmatized for thousands of years!"

……

On the ninth day of February in the fourth year of Yongxing, scattered snowflakes began to fall in Yecheng.

Since the beginning of winter, there has been no rain in most parts of Jizhou, which is very worrying for Ran Min.

Although the State of Wei passed the war against the State of Yan and the State of Dai, and the Chamber of Commerce purchased part of it from the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the State of Qin, it greatly alleviated the food shortage.

However, according to Zuo Min Shangshu's budget, Wei still has a food shortage of millions of shi.

In addition, there was no rain or snow throughout the winter, and even the water level of Zhangshui dropped by a lot.

In this era, people mainly rely on the heavens for food, and people's ability to fight against natural disasters is extremely low.This made Ran Min extremely anxious.If the spring plowing is delayed any longer, Wei State, which has no grain reserves, will definitely suffer a great famine!

Now it's finally snowing.

This made Ran Min very happy.Especially Ran Ming's adopted daughter, Ran Jingwen, is extremely happy!Ran Jingwen caught the snowflakes with her small hands open, and ran around in the Tongque Garden, extremely happy. More than a dozen maids circled around Ran Jingwen, fearing that she would bump into her!

Li Shi and Liu Wei were also in the crowd, protecting the chicks like a hen!

Ran Jingwen snatched a pole from Gong'e, which was a tool used by Gong'e to hang lanterns in the palace at night.

Ran Jingwen's small face was flushed with cold, imitating Ran Ming's appearance, and pretending to say: "Soldiers, these white captives do all kinds of evil, kill all these white captives, and avenge the death of Paoze!"

Ran Jingwen held up the pole, and rushed towards the ladies in white sheepskin robes!
Ran Min and Queen Dong looked at each other and smiled!

Dong Huang said: "What a little ghost!"

Ran Min sighed and said: "Unfortunately, this is not Ming'er's flesh and blood, otherwise, I will definitely make her the princess of Xiangguo!"

At this moment, Ran Jingwen picked off the crown of a palace lady with a pick, and the crown fell down, revealing her golden hair and snow-white skin.Ran Jingwen stared wide-eyed in horror, and screamed: "San Niang, Xiao Niang, run, the ogre is coming!"

The maid's name was Sanur, and she was from Xianbei that Shihu had snatched from somewhere.

A pure white race, with blond hair and blue eyes, and skin as white as frost.Ran Min killed Shi Hu's son and established Ran Wei.Immediately afterwards, the second order to kill Hu was promulgated, "Go to those who agree with the government, and let those who do not agree." This order was interpreted by Sima Guang, Fang Du, the editor of "Book of Jin", and so-called historical experts in later generations as "Expelling Hu Order" (Of course, if you can read and write, you should understand what this means.)
Therefore, Sanur, who was lonely and helpless, had all his relatives killed, so he stayed in Yecheng.

In fact, Ran Min did not kill all Hu people, as long as they did not resist his regime, he treated them equally.Not only a large number of Gong'e of the Jie nationality stayed with Ran Min, but even in Ran Min's iron-blooded army, there were still a large number of Hu people, including Huns, Jie people and Ding Ling.

Sanur is now a 22-year-old woman.

If it is said that 22 years old is a young girl, in ancient times, women generally married at the age of twelve or thirteen, and they belonged to the era of old girls. Sanur has already faded away!
Li Shi and Liu Wei naturally knew these secrets, they just smiled and didn't move!

Seeing that Liu Mo and Li Shi hadn't moved, the naive Ran Jingwen pushed Ran Min and Queen Dong to run away too!Not to mention that Ran Jingwen was only six years old, even if Ran Ming tried his best, he couldn't push Ran Min who was standing up.

Seeing that no one was moving, Ran Jingwen became anxious, and she ran towards Sanur.
