Governor please stay

Xiao Yi, who has enough soldiers and food and is far away from the main battlefield, undoubtedly has the advantage of being a latecomer.If it was said who would benefit the most from Xiao Yan's death, it would undoubtedly be Xiao Yi.

Watching the east gate of Xiangyang City slowly open and the suspension bridge lowered, Liu Yishou said thoughtfully to Wang Wei:

"Do you know that Xiao Yan was very kind to his sons, and did not owe them anything. The only thing is that he was not very kind to a certain son, so that that son might have resentment in his heart."

"Xiao Tong?" Wang Wei remembered that Xiao Tong had conflicts and suspicions with Xiao Yan about choosing a cemetery for his mother's burial.

"No, Xiao Yan may not think that he did something wrong. This person is not Xiao Tong, but Xiao Yi. Princess Great Wall told me about this matter."

Liu Yishou thought about it, and felt that these things should be known to his confidantes and staff.

"When Xiao Yi studied hard when he was young, he suffered from eye disease. After Xiao Yan learned about it, he refused to let the imperial doctor diagnose and treat him, but saw him himself.

Afterwards, Xiao Yi went blind in one eye. "

Liu Yishou said in a calm tone, Wang Wei was so shocked that he couldn't say a word for a long time.When the son was sick, the father was so self-confident that he refused to let the doctor see the son, but went to prescribe the medicine himself, and then cured the son into a disability.

In fact, Liu Yishou didn't know how to evaluate this kind of broken three views, but he only thought that Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi's father and son could be called true "father's kindness and son's filial piety".The father blinded the son's eyes, and the son will send the father to death with a knife in the future.

Finally Liu Yishou sighed and said: "I heard that Xiao Yi was very concerned about his blindness, and often killed the servants in the mansion who stared at his eyes. As for those who secretly laughed at his eyes, except for Xu Zhaopei, everyone else died Absolutely.

According to this, Xiao Yi sent someone to assassinate Xiao Yan in a frenzy, which was in line with his inner emotional choice. "

"In this way, Xiao Yi will take Jiangling to ensure a safe future, and then send troops to build Kang."

Wang Wei said in a deep voice.In his opinion, Xiao Yi and even Xiao Yan have done it, what else is there that he dare not do?

"I predict that Xiao Yi will be polite first, and send someone to discuss with Xiao Huan about controlling Jiangling." Liu Yishou said with a sneer.

To put it bluntly, it is to let the nephew support his rebellion.If Xiao Huan is obedient, he can roll to Xiangyang and hug Xiao Xie to keep warm.

If you are not obedient, hehe, Xiao Yi has more subordinates than Qiu Ba.A sword has no eyes, who knows what will happen?

At this moment the city gate has been fully opened.

There is not a single guard around Xiao Xi, which seems to imply that he "has absolutely no malice".When he came to Liu Yishou's side, Xiao Xi tightly pulled the other party's cuff and said excitedly: "Everyone is saying that Liu Yishou killed the king, but this king doesn't believe it at all. There must be a lot of insider behind this matter!"

In fact, what Xiao Xi said was filled with righteous indignation, but this kind of thing only needs a little logic ability to deduce it.

If Liu Yishou really murdered the king, why did he come to find Xiao Xie? Now he must be advanced to build Kangcheng!

"The emperor decided to replace the prince Xiao Gang, and appointed you and your elder brother Xiao Huan to choose one of them as the new prince. As soon as the edict was given to me, the emperor was assassinated and died in Xianyang Palace. I was also People framed for regicide.

I came to Xiangyang just to fulfill the late emperor's last wish and to put things right. "

Liu Yishou nodded to Wang Wei, who took out a silk book with Xiao Yan's personal seal from his cuff.Xiao Xi opened it with a face full of doubts, and after reading it at a glance, his complexion changed drastically!

"Here is the private seal of the first emperor. You can tell whether it is true or not at a glance. Even if I were a son-in-law, I would not be able to get this from the first emperor, let alone write this edict myself. One of your two brothers will be the new crown prince.

Now that it's over, what are your thoughts? "

Liu Yishou sighed and said nothing more.

"Uncle... this, this, this..."

Xiao Xi spoke incoherently, and a prince's pie fell from the world, knocking him out.He knew very well that his elder brother Xiao Huan was cowardly, and now that the Liang Kingdom was in chaos, all the feudal lords were mobilizing and sending troops to Jiankang, there would probably be endless battles!It is impossible for Xiao Huan to be this "prince".

However, the divine tool is too heavy, it is hot to hold, and if you don't use it to torture your heart, what can you do!

Xiao Xi was going crazy.

Liu Yishou watched him hesitate, and then persuaded him, "Your elder brother will never accept the crown prince, even if he knew it was the late emperor's last wish.

As the former prince, your father won the hearts of the people, benevolent and loving.You yourself should inherit the crown prince.At the beginning, the emperor had a mistake in his mind, and now he is in trouble today.He wants to set things right, but he doesn't want anyone who doesn't want to see you as princes, and would rather kill the king and stir up chaos in the country!

A country has its own laws.To set things right, time is ticking.Whether you want to be a master of ZTE depends on this time.If you don't want to, I will immediately throw this edict into the Han River, and then go back to Shouyang immediately, and you will pretend that I have never been here. "

"Uncle... this king, this king is willing to be the prince!"

Xiao Xi gritted his teeth and said, he also went all out.There is a saying that "If God does not take it, you will be blamed." Now there are Lianghuai powerful vassals, and Liu Yishou, who is his uncle, is helping with great help, and he is upholding righteousness and righteousness.

There is no reason to refuse in terms of emotion and reason!

"You have to remember that many vassal kings, including the false prince Xiao Gang, are plotting rebellion. Only you are the real prince, and only our soldiers and horses in the Lianghuai River are the ones who are really trying to bring order out of the chaos and fight against the king! Only us together Only in this way can we bring order out of chaos for the country and rejuvenate the country of Liang.

Whoever opposes us is a traitor. You must have this belief and don't have any doubts. "

Liu Yishou held Xiao Xi's shoulder and said firmly.

"Uncle... this king, no, I now order you to be the chief minister, to supervise all military forces at home and abroad, and to open the third division of Yitong. We are responsible for commanding all the troops who are willing to serve the king. We will lead the troops into Jiankang, quell the rebellion from all walks of life, and rebuild the army. The country is rejuvenated!"

Xiao Xi said impassionedly, he quickly entered the role.Well, since you have decided to vote for this kind of thing, don't think too much about it, and it will be over if you keep reckless.

Wang Wei had heard that when Liu Yishou was in Luoyang, he knocked on the gate of Heyang Pass with just one mouth. He thought that many people exaggerated their words deliberately to flatter Liu Yishou.

It was only when I saw it today that I realized that my lord's mouth can really turn death into life.They, a group of "rebels" from the north, have transformed themselves into justifiable and officially certified "King Qin volunteers".

This world is too crazy, a mouse is a bridesmaid for a cat, this time Wang Wei has seen it.

"Uncle, no, Da Sima, please enter the city and discuss in detail!"

Xiao Xi said excitedly.

"Your Majesty will go first."

Liu Yishou gestured very politely.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Xiao Xi is only sixteen or seventeen years old, and he is still young at heart.He took Liu Yishou's arm and said, "I will enter the city with Da Sima. In the future, I will never fail you."

Even if he didn't even occupy an extra city, Xiao Qi already regarded himself as an emperor, no different from the young and energetic Yuan Ziyou back then.

Liu Yishou secretly sighed in his heart, something like imperial power is really easy to make people lose their minds, no wonder so many people in ancient and modern China and abroad have lost their humanity because of the charm of imperial power.

……

Arriving in Xiangyang City, Liu Yishou casually looked around, and found that all the shops in the city were open.Pedestrians come and go, their faces are dull, and the streets are orderly.

It can be seen that the "children of the poor" have been in charge of the family for a long time. After Xiao Tong's death, Xiao Cha came to Xiangyang to become a vassal, and it took a lot of hard work to govern the place.

A group of people came to the study room of the prefect's mansion, and after retreating the servants and guards, Xiao Xi took out a letter from under the paperweight on the table and handed it to Liu Yishou.

"It's not been a few days since I received the letter from Da Sima, but the letter from Xiao Yi, King of Eastern Hunan, arrived unexpectedly. In the letter, he encouraged me and my elder brother to send troops to Jiankang and join forces with him.

I saw that he was uneasy and kind, so I didn't agree.Now Xiao Yi's men are training the water army near Baling City, ready to move, and seem to have plans to attack Jiangling. "

In the impression of the ancients, ugly people are bad people.And Xiao Yi, who is blind in one eye, makes people feel gloomy and treacherous.

"How can you allow other people to sleep soundly on the side of the couch. Xiao Yi wants to send troops to build health, so he must ensure that the future is safe. Jiangling is not only rich, but also extends in all directions. Xiao Yi has been coveting for a long time.

I guess he will send troops to Jiangling first before sending troops to Jiankang. "

Liu Yishou said very firmly.

Logically speaking, it is very stupid to establish an enemy first without occupying Jiankang.

However, in the history books of his previous life, he had already seen the "wonderful performances" of Xiao Yan's virtuous sons and filial grandsons. Liu Yishou knew that Xiao Yi would not only do such a thing, but also kill Xiao Huan and Xiao Xie quickly!

why?

In fact, there is no reason. If you kill it, you will lose one competitor. It is such a simple logic.

"Jiangling is an important town, there must be no loss!"

Xiao Xi said with emotion.

"Well, Your Majesty will tell the King of Jiangling (Xiao Huan) to let him sit in Xiangyang and give Jiangling to Xiao Yi. You send envoys to pretend to support Xiao Yi to send troops to build Kang, and give Jiangling City to Xiao Yi as the foundation. But You don't go, and you don't send troops to go."

Liu Yishou said thoughtfully.

Isn't this riding a horse committing suicide?

Xiao Xi almost spat out old blood on the opponent's face.It is said that Liu Yishou was a famous general of the Liang Kingdom. In the past, there was Qingxu Chengwei, who defeated the enemy in World War I;

Why is this guy so hip-stretching?Give it away before the war starts?

"Da Sima, Jiangling is an important place, don't give up easily..."

Xiao Xi said a little unconfidently, after all, he is a layman, while Liu Yishou, although young, has seen a lot of big things in the world, and is a proper "industry insider".

"Yes, to show that you can't, is good. Xiao Yi is determined to send troops to build health, and the soldiers under his command are excited and their morale is high. If His Majesty blocks their way, those people are not good men and women, and they can do anything.

Even if Jiangling wanted to defend it, he might not be able to defend it.

It's better to give Jiangling to Xiao Yi, and then he and his soldiers will relax their vigilance, despise His Majesty, ignore the strength of Xiangyang, and lead troops eastward with peace of mind.

If you want to take it, you must first give it.We take a step back now in order to copy Xiao Yi's retreat in the future.Might as well show the enemy a weakness and let him think that we are timid and fearful. "

Liu Yishou smiled slightly, these routines were considered routine operations.

"Uh, let my eldest brother come to Xiangyang, what should I do?"

Xiao Xi asked with a puzzled look.

This is a good question, but it should be asked at the gate of the city instead of waiting until now.Xiao Xi is not stupid, but he is still a little slow, and he knows everything later.

"Your Majesty will naturally follow us to Shouyang and raise troops in Shouyang.

First, there are many elite soldiers in Shouyang, and there are like clouds of fierce generals.Secondly, it is too close to Jiankang, you can rush all the way there, unlike Xiangyang, if you want to send troops, you have to consider too many things and involve too much.

The last one is that I have been showing weakness before, and many vassal kings and clans thought that I was waiting on the sidelines.When the time comes for His Majesty to go to Shouyang, we will quickly issue a call to action, print the rubbings of the edict and distribute it to various places, suddenly attacking.

At that time, it will definitely be able to sweep across the banks of the Yangtze River by surprise. As for whether Jiankang can be captured, it can only be said that it is up to people to make things happen, and we will do our best. "

Liu Yishou's words made sense and made sense, but Xiao Xie couldn't say a word to refute.There is a saying that if you can't bear a child, you can't catch a wolf.If you don't take out Jiangling to dispel Xiao Yi's suspicion, how can you send troops from Xiangyang to attack Jiangling and stab Xiao Yi in the back?

The meaning of not treating your opponent as a fool is that you must have a bait that you can get.Besides, even if Xiao Huan refused to give up Jiangling, would Xiao Yi still be polite?

"So, then I will call my brother and tell him about it."

Xiao Xi gritted his teeth and said.Compared to becoming the king of a country, the city of Jiangling is insignificant.

"Your Majesty, Jiangling is easy to attack and difficult to defend, and it will not be difficult to get it back in the future. As the saying goes, if you are willing to give up, what is the gain if you don't give up?

In the future, if you enter Jiankang and proclaim yourself emperor, it doesn't matter whether it is one Jiangling or ten Jianglings, isn't it all in your Majesty's pocket? "

Liu Yishou's last sentence was the final word, making Xiao Xi make up his mind.

Wang Wei glanced at Liu Yishou and sighed slightly in his heart.

Compared with an old, treacherous and cunning person like his protagonist, Xiao Xie and the others are tender chicks.

Chapter 384 It's Not That Simple

Anyone who has read "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" knows that the woman surnamed Cai in the book has never been a fuel-efficient lamp.There was Cai Wenji who was robbed to the Huns before, and was later exchanged by Cao Cao, and there was Mrs. Cai who buried Jingxiang at a critical moment.

Now, just as Liu Yishou and Xiao Xi had "concluded" the matter of raising troops in Shouyang and escorting Xiao Xi to Jiankang, someone stepped forward and resolutely disagreed with this matter!

That person is the wife of the late former Crown Prince Xiao Tong, the legal mother of Xiao Cha, the former Crown Princess Cai!Well, now it's time to call the Queen Mother.

It seemed that Mrs. Cai was making trouble out of no reason, but Liu Yishou could see the other party's selfishness at a glance.The eldest son, Xiao Huan, was the descendant of the Cai family, while the third son, Xiao Xie, was born to the concubine Gong's family and was adopted under her name.

Now Xiao Huan is the eldest son and heir.Why should Xiao Huan not be the crown prince, let Xiao Xi be the crown prince?It is inappropriate to abolish the elders and establish the younger ones!

Cai believes that although Liu Yishou is "sincerely" King Qin, he still has his own plans.Abandon the elders and establish the younger ones, isn't Liu Yishou doing this to better control the emperor?

Moreover, Xiao Tong also had a second son named Xiao Yu, who loved military affairs, and was entrusted by Xiao Yan to the Hedong County of Qiaozhi, that is, Songzi, Zhijiang and other places where Liu Yishou lived in his previous life, just west of Jiangling.

Xiao Yu only knows military equipment but not government affairs. He was not expected to be an emperor since he was a child, and the Cai family did not expect Xiao Yu to be a crown prince.In short, it is still necessary to choose one of Xiao Huan and Xiao Xie, and then let Xiao Yu assist.

"Liu Dudu, this time you ventured to Xiangyang to convey the late emperor's edict. The Ai family's mother and son are also very grateful. As for King Qin's rebellion, to seek justice for the late emperor, and let the murderer be punished, this is also the proper meaning.

Now, since the crown prince is to be established, according to the etiquette, no matter whether he establishes the heir or the elder, Xiao Huan, the king of Jiangling, should be the first.The Ai family has ordered people to invite the King of Jiangling to come to Xiangyang for a speech, why doesn't the governor wait until they meet before making a decision? "

In the study, Cai's words were no longer "pushing the wall", but telling Liu Yishou clearly that she would only support the Bingqin King unless her own son Xiao Huan was made the new emperor!

Otherwise, there is no talk, and the Cai family will not use love to generate electricity to support the adopted son to become the emperor.

If you have a son and an adopted son, and the son is several years older than the adopted son, will you support the adopted son to become emperor instead of your own son?

Thinking in another place, in fact Liu Yishou also understands Cai's thoughts very well. If he is in that position, I am afraid that the choice will be the same.However, in this way, what would Xiao Xi, who already regarded himself as an emperor, think?

Mrs. Cai thought very far. If Xiao Xi became the emperor, then Xiao Huan would most likely die in an "accident". After all, since he was both the eldest son and the first son, the threat to the throne was too great, it would be better to die.

In front of imperial power, what is a half brother?On the contrary, when Xiao Huan became the emperor, no one had to die, just follow the rules of etiquette, and everything was fine.

At this moment, Xiao Xi's heart felt like falling to the ground after falling from a high altitude.He lowered his head, blushed, squeezed his sleeves tightly with both hands, but dared not say a word.

Success is also a ritual, failure is also a ritual.With the name of etiquette, Xiao Tong's lineage was able to catch Liu Yishou's "express train". Otherwise, wouldn't it be nice for the governor to change to a "uncle generation" clan to serve, and it would be the turn of Xiao Tong's descendants!

However, just because it is necessary to follow the etiquette, then Xiao Huan has a better chance of inheriting the throne than Xiao Xie. No, it should be said that unless Xiao Huan dies or is too sick to be a member of the council, Xiao Huan has no chance at all.

Liu Yishou was also very helpless about this. The foundation of his trip to achieve his goal lies in the word "etiquette".Nowadays, I can't slap myself in the face, abandon the etiquette, and mention something like "establishing the virtuous but not establishing the superior".

If that's the case, wouldn't it be better to put Xiao Zhengde in that position?
