Invincible son

Chapter 1243 1244 [A dream of Huang Liang]

At that time, Pei Yue was still the envoy of Marquis Zhongshan and Daliang, while Xu Huiyan was the chief assistant of the Southern Zhou cabinet and the head of the Xu family in Qinghe.

The marriage between the two countries is about to take place, but the rulers and ministers of the Southern Zhou Dynasty are still worried that the Liang cavalry will cross the south of the Yangtze River. A marriage contract may not be able to restrain the ambition of Emperor Liang, so Xu Huiyan earnestly persuaded Pei Yue, hoping that he can dispel Emperor Kaiping's long-cherished wish and try his best Eliminate the hidden dangers of war.

Under this premise, Xu Huiyan once uttered a sentence to Pei Yue forcefully: "This is how you start, but where does it end?"

The reason for this sentence is the various efforts that Pei Yue made in Daliang territory at the beginning, and the focus is on the role of Xiangyun in helping the world and the people.From Xu Huiyan's point of view at the time, Pei Yue clearly had a temperament of compassion and compassion for the common people, and he didn't want to see the war break out, so he hoped that he could change Emperor Kaiping's mind.

I see……

Xu Huiyan recalled the past, and couldn't help feeling a little more sentimental on his face.

Seeing this, Pei Yue said: "I told Mr. Xu that day that no matter what happens in the process, there must be a war between Liang and Zhou. I can't stop this war from coming, but I can decide the intensity of the war. , at least I can make as few people as possible die in the north and south of the river. In front of Mr. Xu today, I can finally answer you with a clear conscience, this is the beginning and the end."

Facts speak louder than words.

Xu Huiyan said sincerely and sincerely: "The Duke is a true gentleman."

Pei Yue still said calmly: "As for another consideration, maybe I can answer your question. I said earlier that I was moved by your suggestion. To seek one's life, as his only disciple, I am actually a person who is very afraid of death."

These words seemed a bit pretentious and hypocritical. After all, what Pei Yue had come to today was that he was not afraid of life and death, but Xu Huiyan agreed after careful consideration.There is no contradiction between fighting for one's life on the battlefield and cherishing one's life in peacetime, at least no one wants to be killed by a cold arrow behind them.

Pei Yue continued: "But objective conditions do not allow me to do this. His Majesty's suspicion is one aspect. The forces of the Southern Dynasties represented by you, Mr. Xu, will not sincerely accept me to do that. In short, if I If you really step into this quagmire, you will not only have to face the endless pressure from Daliang, but also become a knife in your hands, and the final outcome is nothing more than advancing and retreating and dying in a foreign land."

Xu Huiyan remained silent.

Pei Yue smiled and said: "If you really support me, why not make myself emperor? But you and I both know that this is impossible. After all, it is better to let Xu The possibility of the girl becoming the empress may be slightly higher, after all, there is the full support of the Nandu family."

Xu Huiyan smiled wryly and said, "Grand Duke, you want Churong to go into a desperate situation."

Pei Yue shrugged his shoulders and said, "This shows how close we are. Mr. Xu doesn't mind how miserable my fate is."

Seeing the other party getting more and more embarrassed, Pei Yue clicked to stop, and changed the subject: "I don't need to worry about my situation, I just want to tell Mr. Xu one thing today, if you really want to solve the chronic illness of the Southern Dynasty, you can return the people Now is the best and only chance for the common people to have a bright future."

Xu Huiyan's heart moved, and his eyes gradually lit up: "It's the intention of the Duke, to take advantage of the situation to cleanse the power of the powerful?"

Pei Yue nodded and said: "The clan is a cancer parasitic on the body of the Southern Dynasty, making the people on the south bank of the great river miserable. This territory should not be what it is today, it could have developed better. Now the war has not yet settled, it is precisely When the nobles were at their weakest, no one dared to stop what they pointed at. Xu Gong had been the chief assistant for nearly ten years, and he should have known that once society returned to the stage of government governance, those intricate clans would die like centipedes. Not stiff."

Xu Huiyan agreed very much.

At the beginning, he proposed to clear Zhang’s land and took his own land as an example, but it was still difficult to advance in the end, was it because the entire imperial court was colluding, and officials, big and small, were either from powerful families or attached to these powerful people.

Violence is necessary to break the situation.

Pei Yue continued: "From ancient times to the present, and even in the distant future, the powerful class will inevitably exist. This is not a problem that can be solved by manpower. But since you and I have enough power and confidence, at least we can weaken their strength and make them more powerful. The people at the bottom live in a relatively affluent environment. Are there any great families in Daliang? In fact, there are, such as Luling Han and Jiangbei Fu, as well as some big families in Qinzhou, but they dare not act recklessly because I hung a stick above their heads. a knife."

Xu Huiyan could hear what he meant. The Xu family of Qinghe must set an example and drive the improvement of the entire southern border, but Pei Yue would not persecute them too much. The collapse of the Xu family he was worried about before did not exist.

He breathed out lightly, stared into Pei Yue's eyes and said, "Today I will know why Emperor Liang trusts Duke Wei so much."

No matter whether the positions of the two sides are opposed or not, he has to admit that the vision of the young dignitary in front of him is already higher than that of most people in the world.

Pei Yue said indifferently: "Mr. Xu praised it. I have already reported to the imperial court that a large number of capable officials will arrive soon, and the southern border will be cleared from top to bottom. It is imperative to clear the land. As long as the common people can get the land , they don't care who is the emperor."

Xu Huiyan said with both admiration and regret: "In this way, Daliang will conquer the hearts of the people in the shortest possible time. Even if some people feel dissatisfied, they will not be able to shake the foundation of the Duke on this land."

Pei Yue smiled slightly. Of course, this method is not his original creation. It is still a strategy learned in the previous life, and then slightly modified according to the actual situation.

After doing this well, the southern border will become his veritable territory.

By that time, many problems will be solved.

Feng Yi's voice suddenly came from outside: "Master Guo, there is an urgent military report."

Pei Yue looked at Xu Huiyan apologetically, and said, "Come in."

Feng Yi walked in quickly and handed a secret letter to Pei Yue.

After a while, Pei Yue said to Xu Huiyan with a strange expression: "Mr. Xu, I never thought that someone would coincide with you."

Xu Huiyan looked puzzled, took the secret letter from Pei Yue, glanced at it hastily, and said in an extremely rare gaffe: "A wolf's ambition is not tolerated!"

Pei Yue laughed and said: "This is really... Heaven wants to make people perish, it must first make them crazy."

……

In the two great mountains of the Southern Zhou military, Fang Xiexiao relied on Pingjiang's disciples to hold power for more than ten years. Although Xian Chunqiu was silent for a while, he never gave up on cultivating power.

After the Jian'an Rebellion broke out and Fang Xiexiao publicly fell to Beiliang, Xian Chunqiu shrank his front and retreated to Ningzhou. At the same time, he occupied Liangzhou in the south, and still had nearly [-] troops under his command.

If you count the remnants of the Wufeng Navy along the river, he does have the qualifications to hold back.

In addition, after the northern Liang army crossed the south, Xian Chunqiu publicly stated that he would never surrender, and would fight to the death with the Liang army, which immediately attracted many noble families and ambitious people to join him.During this period of time, the territory of the Southern Zhou Dynasty was extremely chaotic, the government government was in vain, and Pei Yue focused on important pass areas, so he had no and no way to control the flow of population in various places.

In just one month, Ningzhou and Liangzhou seemed to be the last line of defense in the Southern Zhou Dynasty. Countless dignitaries brought their families and brought a lot of wealth to gather here.

Boyang Fucheng, where the Ningguo camp is stationed.

Among the most luxurious mansions in the city, Xian Xiaoshi quickly walked into the courtyard of the back house, came to Xian Chunqiu's side and said, "Father, the city is ready."

Xian Chunqiu kept silent, quietly looking at the shelf beside him.

Xian Xiaoshi had mixed feelings in his heart, including indescribable sadness and indescribable excitement.

After a long time, Xian Chunqiu said quietly: "All those people nodded?"

Xian Xiaoshi said: "Yes, they told the son that only the father can save the people from the fire and water. I hope the father can let go of his worries."

"Understood, you go down."

Xian Chunqiu waved his hand, Xian Xiaoshi stepped back respectfully.

The old man's eyes still fell on the same spot, and a ferocious and fanatical look gradually appeared on his face.

A bright yellow dragon robe hangs on the shelf.
