Hearing what Tao Kan said, Bian Yan's heart was suddenly shocked, and he looked over in disbelief.
What are you kidding, Tao Kan actually wants to welcome Sima Shao From a legal point of view, Sima Shao was made the crown prince during the lifetime of Emperor Yuan, and he was unanimously recognized by the courtiers, so he naturally had the legitimacy to succeed to the throne, and after Wang Dun abolished Sima Shao, Sima Chong inherited the king of the East China Sea and had no qualifications to succeed to the throne, so Yang Yan abolished Sima Chong, according to common sense, Sima Shao should be reinstated, but Yang Yan was not so kind and changed Sima Yu as the emperor.
However, Zheng Achun and the courtiers had their own selfish intentions, and did not raise objections, admitting the fact that Sima Yu succeeded to the throne, but in any case, Sima Shao is orthodox However, in the world, in addition to reason, there are also feelings and benefits, if Sima Shao returns to Jiangdong, Zheng Achun, Sima Yu, and the ministers and magnates who sat back and watched Sima Shao was deposed will deal with themselves That's right, although Sima Shao is a victim, in order to prevent you from coming back to take revenge on us, we can only continue to sacrifice you.
Therefore, from any point of view, it is absolutely impossible for Sima Shao to return to the court, even if Bian Yan is recognized as a royalist, for the sake of the overall situation, he will not allow Sima Shao to be reinstated, and Tao Kan is not unclear, he played the banner of Sima Shao, and has already shown his unwillingness to shake hands with Wang Dun from the side.
Sure enough, Tao Kan said coldly: "The old man was favored by Emperor Yuan, and appreciated by the old master, how can he sit back and watch the throne fall, the king rebelled against the abolition of the establishment, the chaos of the dynasty, one of Yang Yan's Huangkou children, with a foreign monarch to abolish the establishment, within a year, the country has moved twice, it is really a shame and humiliation that has never been seen in the ages, and now the old man has set things right, and returned to the old master, which is in line with the hearts of the people of heaven and earth, and he should not make nonsense." “ "Hey" Bian Yan sighed and said with a wry smile: "Shixing, Shixing, the old man admits that he can't say anything about you, I'm afraid that no one in the court can say that you are not half of you, but the old master has finally been abolished, and it is difficult to collect it."
Tao Kan said with a cold face: "If the princes are selfless, how can they not welcome the old master Today, the old man has said all this, I hope to think about it carefully, and send off the guests" said, Tao Kan stood up with his sleeves brushed.
Bian Yan looked at Tao Kan in a daze, and his eyes gradually showed a look of disappointment, if it is said that the public has selfishness, but who in the world has no selfishness, he guessed what Tao Kan wanted, but after all, he did not persuade again, flicked his sleeves, and left the table.
A while ago, Tao Kan was persuaded by Tao Zhan, but the Minister of the Manchu Dynasty and the Empress Dowager both wanted to shake hands with Wang Dun and make peace, and Tao Kan could not stand on the opposite side of the court, so he needed to set up a banner.
What kind of banner is more appealing than Sima Shao?
Although Bian Yan's departure indicates that Tao Kan and the court have officially parted ways, Tao Kan has never flinched in his heart, but he has gone from nothing to two thousand stone masters, and he is also a person who can afford to take and let go, and he may think twice in advance, and once he makes a decision, he will not hesitate, not to mention that he has set up Sima Shao's banner and is already invincible in morality.
Even if the army is defeated in the future, it will not be purged too much because of the righteous name in hand.
Because Tao Kan actually refused to reconcile with Wang Dun, the situation in the court was even more strange and unpredictable, Wang Dun scolded Tao Kan for not knowing what to do, but he was not going to send troops from Gu to attack Jiankang, the only thing he could do at the moment was to plot against Bashu, either to form an alliance with Li Xiong, or to capture Chengdu with lightning speed, according to Bashu and Jingxiang, and follow Liu Bei's old path.
Therefore, in addition to sending Qian Feng to Chengdu, Wang Dun also secretly dispatched troops to Jiangzhou in case of contingencies.
Half a month later, Yang Yan also received a secret report from Jiankang, and it happened that Xun Hu and Liu Lanzi were by his side, so he asked, "What do you two think of this matter?"
Xun Hu groaned: "Tao Kan is afraid that he still wants to fight, as long as the king raises troops to attack Jiangling, Tao Kan will take the aunt, Wang Dun is already in a disadvantageous situation of being attacked on both sides, if I am Wang Dun, I should immediately return to Wuchang, gather all my strength to attack Bashu, and do not think about going east for the time being." ” "yes" Yang Yan nodded and said: "Lone didn't expect Tao Kan to be so strong, this person's sword is not old, what about you, Lanzi, what do you think?"
Liu Lanzi said: "The concubine thinks that the king of Xunyang is in danger. ” "Oh, how do you say that?"
Yang Yan became interested and asked.
Liu Lanzi said: "As long as the king of Xunyang is removed, Tao Kan's righteous name will no longer exist, and he can only support that child, and Wang Dun also has the intention of abandoning Sima Chong to support Sima Yu, so that Tao Kan will have no reason to attack Gu Yu, if the court takes advantage of the situation to exert pressure, Tao Kan may be forced to shake hands with Wang Dun and make peace." ” Xun Hu hesitated and said: "Who will do such an evil thing as assassinating the King of Xunyang, is he not afraid of what Qianfu will point."
Liu Lanzi smiled coldly: "There are still most short-sighted people in the world, taking the Jin family as an example, since Yang Jun, to Empress Jia, Sun Xiu, and to the Eight Kings Rebellion, as long as many ministers and magnates take a little less and be less greedy, the Jin family will not fall into such a field, after all, many people can only see what they are looking at and may not think deeply."
Back to the matter of the King of Xunyang, Wang Dun may not be the killer himself, but he will definitely turn a blind eye, and he is happy to have someone take the life of the King of Xunyang, so as long as the hands and feet are clean and not caught on the spot, there is almost no possibility of leakage, and at the same time, with the current situation of the Jin family, the Manchu Dynasty, everyone has the motive to kill the King of Xunyang, if they do not want to split from within, this matter can only be stopped. “ Yang Yan suddenly found that women's thinking angles are really different from men's, but after thinking about it carefully, what Liu Lanzi said is very reasonable, maybe someone will really make Zhi faint and assassinate Sima Shao, so he asked: "In your opinion, King Xunyang is afraid that it will be difficult to escape death."
Liu Lanzi swallowed: "From common sense, it should be so, unless the king makes a move." “ Yang Yan was surprised: "You want me to rescue the King of Xunyang from Xunyang back to Xiangyang."
"Hmm" Liu Lanzi nodded.
"Justification" Yang Yan asked.
Liu Lanzi thought about it, and said: "With the King of Xunyang in hand, you can thwart the conspiracy of some people in the Jin family, and then at the right time, hand it over to Tao Kan, the so-called one country does not allow two masters, one mountain does not allow two tigers, if the King of Xunyang returns, the Jin family will be in civil strife, besides, Yu Wenjun is Yu Liang's sister, the king saved Yu Wenjun, Yu Liang should be grateful, or it can be used by the king." ” "Not bad" Xun Hu's eyes lit up and he agreed.
Yang Yan looked at Liu Lanzi with burning eyes, full of aggression, and Liu Lanzi didn't know what she was thinking, she actually lowered her head half-lowered, her eyes dodging.
Yang Yan then asked, "Lone wants to listen to the real reason." ” "This" Liu Lanzi showed a look of shame, and gritted her teeth: "At first, the concubine was just thinking about Yu Wenjun's mother and son, what a crime, she actually wanted to accompany Sima Shao to the funeral, and she couldn't help but move her heart to hide, but later after pondering, she found that rescuing Sima Shao was also beneficial to the king, and Wang Dun was also secretly transferring troops to the Jiangzhou area, Xunyang would be empty, so she dared to propose." “ Yang Yan didn't speak, and looked at the large map behind him.
From Xiangyang to Xunyang, about 1,200 miles, it is not difficult to dive over, you can go east all the way in Jiangbei, go south to Shouchun, and find an opportunity to cross the river at night.
After a while, Yang Yan nodded and said: "This matter is personally led by Xun Hu and Liu Lanzi, you two should personally lead the team, and the manpower should not be too manpower, sneak into Xunyang City, don't rush to do it first, understand" Xun Hu said with a smile: "It should be so, otherwise he plundered Sima Shao for no reason, which made the yellow beard resentful, and gave Jiankang those old guys the excuse to accuse the king." “ "The concubine will pay attention."
Liu Lanzi also nodded violently, and there was excitement in her eyes, the female Qianniuwei had never participated in a battle since she became an army, although they all understood that Yang Yan was kind-hearted, but she was deeply favored, and she couldn't repay it, and this time was an excellent opportunity to repay her.
After the two retreated, they immediately began to arrange, Xun Hu selected 400 Qianniuwei, Liu Lanzi also brought 100 female Qianniuwei, a total of 500 people, and some manu and equipment, three days later, rode away.
And before Qianniuwei left, Yang Yan also gave three orders to the navy.
First of all, he ordered Jiang Zhao to send some shipbuilders to Xiangyang, build a wharf on the shore of the water, build ships, and make preparations for the waterway for the capture of Jiangling.
The second is to order Jiang Yan to go to sea, go east to Fusang, and mine Ishimi silver ore, Yang Yan originally wanted to run in person, but after thinking about it, there is no need to do this kind of thing personally, draw the navigation drawings well, and make all the preparations are sufficient, and the manpower for mining can be recruited from the local area.
In the end, Jiang Zhao was ordered to send another boat to the other side of Xunyang to meet Xun Hu and Liu Lanzi. 。
