A few days later, Chengdu Shu Wangfu.
Yang Shousu came to the outside of the palace under the protection of more than 100 cavalry, and the palace of Shu was temporarily rebuilt and expanded, but although it was temporary, the palace was very luxurious, and Yang Shousu came to the palace with the guards but was stopped.
Yang Shousu said to the guards: "Hurry up and report it, this official is a special envoy sent by His Majesty." ” "Wait here."
The soldier guarding the door said to Yang Shousu.
"It stands to reason that Lord An Guogong received the news that we were coming a few days ago, and he should have led the civil and military officials of Sichuan and Shu out of the city to greet him, but if you look at the fact that we are still waiting here, it is really too unusual, this does not take Your Majesty into account at all" One of the guards complained to Yang Shousu.
"You can be content" Yang Shousu sighed: "It's good to let us enter the city, now that Anguo has a lot of soldiers and a lot of food, and occupies Sichuan and Shu, the country of abundance, I'm afraid that the current Anguo Gong is no longer the Anguo Gong of the past." ” It didn't take long for a literati-like person to come out of the palace, and after seeing Yang Shousu, he bowed down and said, "It turned out to be Lord Yang, Lord Yang has worked hard all the way; Under is the Shu Wangfu governor Shi Cui Gan. ” Cui Gan originally didn't want to surrender to Li Yue, Li Yue did a lot of work in order to be able to bring Cui Gan under his command, which was more difficult than Liu Bei's invitation to Zhuge Liang in the thatched house, after talking to Cui Gan about his governing philosophy and ambitions, Cui Gan finally had a little good impression of Li Yue, Li Yue had a small banquet on three days and a big banquet on five days, as long as Cui Gan wanted to meet all the things he wanted, he successfully took Cui Gan under his command; Although Cui Gan is nominally the chief history of the Shu Prince's Mansion, this long history is just a nominal name, more precisely, Cui Gan is equivalent to the Xiangguo of Sichuan and Shu, and Cui Gan is in charge of all government affairs in Sichuan and Shu.
Yang Shousu said very politely: "It turned out to be Lord Cui, I don't know where Grandpa Guo is now" "My prince went to inspect the field, and invited Lord Yang to enter the house first" Cui Gan said very politely: "The lower official has arranged accommodation for the adults and his party in the mansion, and the prince will return in a few days." ” "There's Lord Lautre."
Yang Shousu said to Cui Gan.
Under the leadership of Cui Gan, Yang Shousu and a few of his entourages came to a partial courtyard in the Shu Palace, although it is a partial courtyard, but the living facilities are very complete, and there are maids to serve, the luxury of the Shu Palace, Yang Shousu was also a little surprised, from which Yang Shousu saw the capital owned by Li Yue; Even the Shu Wangfu was built so luxuriously, it must have quite a lot of financial resources as a foundation; Yang Shousu knew that Li Yue was a very frugal person, so this Shu Mansion should be relatively moderate in Sichuan and Shu, which reflected how rich Sichuan and Shu were.
"Your Excellency, this is too rude, just leave us here and it's over."
One of the attendants was very dissatisfied and said: "If you don't give food or drink, what can we do with those brothers outside?"
As soon as this person's voice fell, a group of maids came in, each carrying a plate, needless to say that what was placed on it was wine and delicacies, led by a middle-aged man, who was the housekeeper of the Shu Palace; The housekeeper said to Yang Shousu: "Lord Yang, this is a meal that Lord Changshi ordered the villain to prepare for you, please forgive me for being in a hurry and not being well entertained." ” Yang Shousu looked at a table of wine and meat and said, "This is already very good, by the way, I still have a group of brothers outside."
"Your Excellency can rest assured that it has been arranged, Lord Changshi has already arranged for them to rest in the post house tomorrow."
The housekeeper said to Yang Shousu very respectfully.
"I'm tired."
Yang Shousu said with a smile.
After the housekeeper left, Yang Shousu sat down and said to everyone: "Don't be stunned, hurry up and eat."
As soon as Yang Shousu sat down and picked up his chopsticks, an attendant came in and said, "My lord, I went out just now and found that there were many more guards outside the door. ” "It's normal," Yang Shousu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Do you think An Guogong is really no longer here?"
"What do you mean," the attendant asked Yang Shousu puzzled.
"I bet with you that Li Yue is in this mansion, and he has arranged all this in advance now."
Yang Shousu said with a smile.
"My lord, this is all a crime of bullying the king."
The attendant said in surprise.
"Look at this luxurious Shu Palace, and listen to what his subordinates call him."
Yang Shousu said with a smile: "This official has long said that the current Li Yue is no longer the former Duke of Anguo, but His Royal Highness the King of Shu; And do you really think that Li Yue only has an army of 500,000 under his command?"
"What the lord means is that there are more soldiers and horses under the command of An Guogong" "Sichuan Shu has been known as the country of abundance since ancient times, and when An Guogong settled in Sichuan Shu, Sichuan Shu was not devastated by war."
Yang Shousu said to everyone: "That is to say, Sichuan Shu fell into the hands of Li Yue, the Duke of Anguo, unscathed, with the wealth of Sichuan and Shu, not to mention the 500,000 army, there is no problem even if it is armed with a million army."
"My lord, what should we do next?"
the squire continued.
"What else can I do, take one step at a time, I just hope An Guogong won't go too far," Yang Shousu said after drinking a glass of wine.
In fact, as Yang Shousu said, Li Yue was indeed in the Shu Palace, and Yang Shousu's every move was under Li Yue's surveillance; In Li Yue's study, Cui Gan has returned.
Cui Gan said to Li Yue: "Lord Wang, according to your instructions, Lord Yang and them have all been arranged. ” "What should they do" Li Yue sat on the throne and asked Cui Gan, "What do you call this king?"
” "They call the prince Duke Anguo."
Cui Gan said to Li Yue.
Li Yue sneered: "An Guogong, it seems that my father really didn't take me to heart."
"Lord Wang, did you say that this could be Your Majesty testing you," Cui Gan asked Li Yue.
"Test me" Li Yue frowned and said: "Do you think this is necessary According to the news obtained by this king, Li Zhe's position as the crown prince has been abolished, and the queen mother has also been imprisoned in the Anshou Palace, which means that all the decisions and rewards made by the queen mother have also been invalidated, do you understand?"
"Then Lord Wang, what should we do next" Cui Gan said to Li Yue.
Li Yue thought for a while and said: "After this battle, the Xia army has already lost its vitality, and I am afraid that there will be no more battles in a short period of time. ” "There will always be a day when Xia Jun recovers, so what about after that" Cui Gan continued to ask.
"Although this king was raised by the Xia Emperor and the Empress, this king is a Song person" Li Yue said to Cui Gan: "This king has given everything for the Great Xia Empire for so many years, and it can be regarded as worthy of their nurturing grace." ” Li Yue's sentence contains too many meanings, Li Yue wants to dominate Sichuan and Shu, there is no doubt that if Li Liangzuo wants to use troops against Li Yue, I am afraid that Li Yue will join forces with the Great Song Dynasty to fight against Xia in order to protect himself, and there will once again be a state of separation between the three kingdoms on the land of China.
