Governor please stay

After Xiao Lun learned of this, he was very angry (but not panicked).He sent his chief assassin, Dai Zigao, to assassinate He Zhitong in Jiankang City!

There was a lot of trouble about this matter, but because there was no evidence, everyone knew that Xiao Lun did it, so they couldn't do anything about him.He Zhitong's son wrote to Xiao Yan, asking for a thorough investigation of the matter, but Xiao Yan, who still focused on worshiping the Buddha and hoped for a grand and peaceful birthday banquet, downplayed it.

It made Xiao Lun even more inflated.

Because he was worried that Liu Yishou would investigate the matter after entering Guangling City, and that the local fishermen would go to Liu Yishou's side to complain, Xiao Lun then ordered martial law at the ferry and Guangling City to prevent him from entering the city.

In Fu Qi's view, this is purely superfluous, which fully proves what it means to be a thief with a guilty conscience.

If you don't do anything, Liu Yishou will know nothing. Even if someone complains and petitions, he is here to attend Xiao Yan's birthday banquet after all, and there is a high probability that there will be no extra problems.

Now that you reject the other party, it's like tearing your face apart. In that case, Liu Yishou will find a way to grab your braid instead.It is extremely unwise to act like this.

Fu Qi felt that Xiao Lun was a very wise person on weekdays, how could he be in a hurry when encountering some accidents?

To describe it in one sentence, it is too immature, too irrational, and lacking in character.

"Your Highness, now open the gate of Guangling City, go to the ferry in person, go to make amends to Liu Yishou, and invite him to a banquet in the city. After the meal, nothing will happen. Otherwise... alas!"

Fu Qi tried hard to persuade.

At this moment, the relatives outside the study door came in, cupped their hands and said to Xiao Lun: "Your Highness, Consort Liu's fleet has left Guangling and seems to be heading for Jingkou."

Since it is going to Jingkou, it can only walk from the official road to Jiankang, there is no second way to go.

So, did Liu Yishou give in?

Fu Qi showed surprise on his face, and reiterated again: "Are you sure you are heading towards Jingkou?"

The attendant explained: "To the south of Guangling, there is only Jingkou. There are many ships on the Yangtze River, and there are also sailors cruising. What kind of tricks can Liu Concubine play?"

This is a big truth!

No matter what Liu Yishou's intentions were, he took his troops to Jiankang, so there was no need to be too suspicious about this.

To put it simply, it was Xiao Lun's presumptuousness, and Liu Yishou retreated.

You can say that the other party has general knowledge and is not as knowledgeable as Xiao Lun, or you can say that Liu Yishou is a little afraid of Xiao Lun, so he doesn't want to make trouble for himself.

As for which one, or both, it is impossible to know what it means.

"Hahahahahaha! What Liu concubine is, it's just my Xiao family's dog."

Xiao Lun laughed arrogantly and indulgently, as if he was afraid that Liu Yishou would go crazy and attack Guangling City before covering himself up!

Fu Qi frowned, always feeling that this matter was not simple.Everyone knows when the bow and arrow is the most threatening, of course it is when it has not been shot yet!Once the bow and arrow is shot, it can only threaten the person being targeted, while others can free up their hands to do whatever they want.

Now facing Xiao Lun's unreasonable provocation, Liu Yishou didn't say anything at all.If the other party was really so talkative, why did they use elite soldiers to disperse Xiao Lun's private army, making Xiao Lun sleepless all night?

"Jing Ping, it's true that you are quite intelligent, but you are too cautious. The reason why Liu Yishou was able to deal with Yu Hong was because Yu Hong was careless. He was arrogant in Xuyi. At the feet of the emperor, what can he do? ?”

Xiao Lun smiled contemptuously, not paying attention to Liu Yishou at all.

Fu Qi felt that Xiao Lun was hopeless.

That's right, among Xiao's generation, Xiao Lun is very good at leading troops and has a good command of military affairs.But, are there only a few people surnamed Xiao in the world?

Xiao Lun is considered to be able to lead soldiers among a group of princes who don't distinguish between grains and grains, but if you compare him with many outsiders, then this prince is nothing.

Among other things, Fu Qi felt that Liu Yishou could hang and beat this master with one hand, but as the mastermind, he couldn't say this to Xiao Lun. If he did, his future would be ruined.

This is also the helplessness of being a mastermind.The lord is too powerful to use you.My lord is too inferior, he won't listen to what you say.

"Your Highness, why don't you write a letter and let me send it to Liu Yishou, saying that this is because there are water bandits trying to rob Guangling City, so His Highness is cautious and dare not open the city gate, everything is a misunderstanding.

In the future, if His Highness has a chance, he hopes to have a drink with Consort Liu or something like that.It is also possible to write on behalf of the writer, and His Highness just stamps his personal seal. "

Fu Qi gave some persuasion at last.

Xiao Lun shook his head, waved his hands arrogantly and said: "Isn't this king trying to give in? Just because Liu Yishou is worthy? A person with a handsome face is also useful to a girl like Xiao Yuying. I don't want to eat him That set.

You don't have to do anything, if you make peace with that Liu Yishou behind my back, don't blame me for turning my face! "

Xiao Lun's voice was stern, it didn't look like he was joking.

Fu Qi smiled wryly and nodded. There was a lot of words in his mind, and he didn't know how to say them. In the end, he could only sigh.

……

Jingkou now belongs to "Southern Xuzhou", which is a typical state and county that the Southern Dynasties failed to get Xuzhou and tried their best to create.Jingkou is not only an important military town, but also has a large number of merchant ships, and it is the most important ferry in Liang State.

none of them.

When Liu Yishou brought the people to Jingkou, a small official from the Central Committee of the Liang State came to welcome them, and placed them in Jingkou, without notifying Liu Yishou to immediately enter Jiankang.

After all, there is still some time before the birthday banquet. Logically, they should spend some time in Guangling City at this time, enjoying the prosperity of Yangzhou, and then go south to Jingkou.

As a result, Xiao Lun made such a toss, and the group had to be stationed at the post station in Jingkou.Everyone around Liu Yishou was filled with righteous indignation and couldn't bear it any longer. Yang Jiang was so angry that his mouth turned up so that he could hang an oil pot.

Everyone felt that Liu Yishou's move backed down too much, and Xiao Lun made an inch of it!Xiao Lun thinks that he is the sixth prince and his status is very powerful. Doesn't the people under Liu Yishou think that they can even take care of Yu Hong, so why would they be afraid of a salted fish prince?

In the middle of the night, Liu Yishou was in his room checking some news that Yang Xiuzhi had inquired outside, when Yang Zhong came uninvited, as if he had something to say.

Seeing that something was wrong with the situation, Yang Jiang came out disheveled after preparing the wine.

"Do you think my move is too weak?"

Liu Yishou put down the paper in his hand, looked at Yang Zhong and asked with burning eyes, and his tone was a bit hostile.

After thinking about it, probably thinking that Liu Yishou should be someone who can listen to advice, Yang Zhong said calmly: "The last general has also stayed in Liang Guo for five years, and he knows some things that operate in the country.

Since the lord has already pinched that person in our hands, why don't we take advantage of the opportunity to catch Xiao Lun's handle and get rid of him, so as to frighten those who don't open their eyes.

My lord backed down the day before yesterday and threw away all the deterrence we got from Yu Hong.In the end, I thought..."

"Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Liu Yishou asked with a smile.

"The end general just feels that..."

"I don't want you to think, but I do. I don't think it's time for us to make a move, that's how it is. When the time is right and you are busy, go down and rest, it's getting late."

Liu Yishou waved his hand, as if he didn't intend to listen to Yang Zhong's defense at all.

"The general made a slip of the tongue..."

I wanted to make a suggestion, but I didn't expect to encounter a big setback. Yang Zhong confessed his crime and was about to leave.

“No slip of the tongue, just a misconception.

There is a saying in the art of war: Avoid its sharp edge and attack its lazy return. Now is the time for Xiao Lun to be vigilant, and it is not our turn to take action.Besides, we have no grievances or enmity with Xiao Lun at all, and getting rid of Xiao Lun is nothing more than teaching Xiao Yan's son a lesson.How can I help Xiao Yan teach his son a lesson?

You guys haven't figured this out from the root, so watch it carefully.To appease the emotions of the soldiers, just say that I have my own opinion. "

"Here, I will take my leave!"

Yang Zhong exited the room resentfully, almost bumping into Yang Jiang who was eavesdropping outside the door.

After Yang Zhong left, Yang Jiang tiptoed over to Liu Yishou and sat down, and said in a low voice, "Everyone is very dissatisfied with Xiao Lun, but what is even more dissatisfied is that Alang clearly has a lot of spare power with us, and he is not even here to attack Guangling City." Under the circumstances of the words, he actually flinched.

Let that person testify against Xiao Lun, wouldn't he be ashamed?What did you say when you sent us away and taught that person face-to-face? "

After Yangjiang finished talking like a machine gun, he found that Liu Yishou was indifferent, so he could only hug his arm and shake it back and forth.

"You all one by one, alas!"

Liu Yishou put the paper in his hand on the table and sighed helplessly.

"Xiao Lun is the prince, and any matter related to the prince, no matter how small it is, is a major matter related to the political situation and should not be ignored. If you jump out rashly, you will only become a target and a fool.

So, I give in to this matter, we are in the dark, and Xiao Lun is always in the light.If Xiao Lun takes precautions, then if we don't make a move now, we can look for opportunities to make a move in the future.

If Xiao Lun doesn't defend at all, then I will let him know soon, spit out what I eat, return what I take, and hand over what I steal!He will definitely not die and peel off his skin!

But, you can't beat Xiao Lun too hard, he is Xiao Yan's own son after all.

Didn't you always say this to your son and that to your son?If in the future your son got into trouble outside and came back, and outsiders wanted to beat him to death, wouldn't you raise the butcher's knife with your own hands? "

Liu Yishou's last sentence stopped Yang Jiang from asking.

"That's definitely not possible..."

Yang Jiang said weakly, very unconfident.

"So, why do you expect Xiao Yan to do things that you can't even do? We are forcing Xiao Yan too hard. If he doesn't say anything now, won't he trouble us when the opportunity is ripe?"

Liu Yishou asked another question that pointed to the soul.

So many words, summed up in four words, it is called "sparse and inseparable relatives"!This is just human nature.

"Do it, do it, you are the one who understands things the most, whether it is good or not, what is the unity of knowledge and action, what is good and evil!"

Yang Jiang said angrily.

The mouth is convinced, but the heart is not convinced.

"I think, um... how should I put it?"

Liu Yishou sighed helplessly, looked at Yang Jiang and said, "Educating children is the responsibility of parents, not outsiders. Xiao Lun, I am not obliged to make him change his ways, nor to teach him how to behave.

Everything I will do is to benefit myself the most, both visible and invisible.In fact, I don't care much about whether Xiao Lun himself benefits from this or is killed, and this is not the core of the problem.

Why are you all staring at Xiao Lun? "

Yes, why?

Sheep ginger finally come back to taste.

That's right, it was really cool to hang Xiao Lun up and beat him, and report the humiliation of that day, and then what?

Xiao Lun is the prince, as long as Xiao Yan is still alive, as an outsider, you can't do anything to Xiao Lun after all!This is the same reason that parents will not watch outsiders beat their children, no matter whether outsiders have reason or not.

Even if it's fun to hang Xiao Lun and beat him up, so what?Apart from venting bad breath and letting your "notoriety" be sung in the ears of family members, is there any real benefit?

People can live for others, even for the people of the world.But in the end, he lived for himself.

Yang Jiang seemed to understand something, including her, all the people under Liu Yishou's command were blinded by anger.

"So? What are you going to do?"

Yang Jiang asked curiously, her temper came and went quickly.

"Since slapping his son in front of Xiao Yan is a bad thing, then I can't do such a bad thing." Liu Yishou said leisurely.

Chapter 310 The Emperor's New Clothes

I don't know if Xiao Yan was guilty of guilt or because he was afraid that Liu Yishou would turn around and run away.On the second day when Liu Yishou and his party were stationed at the post station in the outskirts of Jingkou, envoys came from Jiankang Taicheng and invited Liu Yishou and his party to live in Taicheng.

But Xiao Yan has a request. Except for the personal guards, Liu Yishou and his party must be stationed in Jingkou, and they are not allowed to accompany them!

Liu Yishou immediately became furious at the envoy from Taicheng, saying that his identity was similar to that of a vassal king, rather than an ordinary foreign minister.If you can't bring troops into the city, then you might as well not go and go back home now.

The envoy was shocked, gods fight and mortals suffer, no matter it is Xiao Yan or Liu Dadu, he can't afford to offend either one.The envoy quickly said a lot of good things, and then hurried back to report the matter to Zhu Yi.

A day later, the envoy came again and told Liu Yishou and others that they could lead troops, or even enter Taicheng, but only 100 people at most, and there was no room for bargaining.

And also made an additional request: Do not use his Liu Dudu's festival battle!

If the governor of the outside world wants to supervise the military affairs of the states, he needs to "hold the festival".And when leading troops back to the court, they also need to hold festivals.Now that Xiao Yan does not allow Liu Yishou to enter the city, the meaning is actually very clear.

I can understand that you bring a hundred elite soldiers into Jiankang to protect your own safety. After all, Xiao Zhengde and his like don't do too many things like this.But you don't need to wear X in moderation.Even if you lead troops into the city, in the eyes of outsiders, these soldiers and horses are just like security guards, without any symbolic meaning.

Even if the special forces put on the uniform of a security guard, that is an out-and-out security guard!

From a military point of view, this kind of deceitful behavior is meaningless, but from the analysis of the special political environment of Liang State, it can be said that it is a big political issue to let Chi Jie enter Taicheng!

Leading troops into Beijing without permission is tantamount to rebellion!

Maybe Xiao Yan can give in as many troops as there are, for example, if more than 100 people enter the city, it will not hurt.But when it comes to holding festivals, he will never back down.

Liu Yishou did not embarrass the envoy, and readily agreed to the relevant request, and led many subordinates and a hundred elite soldiers to escort the "birthday gift" for Xiao Yan, and the group entered Jiankang City in a mighty manner.

But after entering the city, everyone did not enter Taicheng as Xiao Yan requested, but camped near a large mansion near Dongfu City. This was the mansion that Chen Yuankang bought with a lot of money when he first came to Jiankang, and It was only through Yang Kan's relationship that he got it.

Now it has become an institution similar to the "Beijing Office".

Hearing that Liu Yishou had arrived in Jiankang, Chen Yuankang hurried over to report many important matters.

The center of the Liang Kingdom is calm on the surface, but in fact, the internal vortex is suddenly rising. The political vacuum created by the death of the former prince Xiao Tong is being filled by Xiao Gang's troops.A new round of political reshuffle has begun, and has even reached a fever pitch.

Xu Mian, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, returned to his hometown due to health reasons and wanted to leave Jiankang, but was again detained by Xiao Yan.But he has basically retreated to the second line, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials is in name only, and the officials below are about to break their heads in order to compete for the substantive "top leader".

This time when Chen Yuankang came to Jiankang, many officials of the central government extended their olive branches, expressing their willingness to "walk around" more with Liu Dudu, the Qiang Fan in the border town.
