Empire's Summoning Generals System

Chapter 454 Liu De's Clan? (two in one)

Peking City.

The sky was gloomy, oppressed by dark clouds, and the wind was blowing. Pedestrians on the road were also in a hurry, rushing to their homes. It was going to rain.

In a powerful mansion, in the study room, although a candle is lit, the study room is still extremely dim, and two figures are reflected on the wall, looking slightly gloomy.

A short and thin old man kept rubbing his hands, feeling a little uneasy, raised his head, looked at the strong man opposite him, and hesitated to speak.

The strong man remained calm and asked in a low voice, "Wan Gong, how is it? Have you thought about it?"

Wan Gong looked distressed, and asked cautiously: "To tell you the truth, the general, all the soldiers of my Wan family were recruited by Yannan to defend the city. There is really no manpower in the mansion. How can this help the general take the city?"

"Wan Gong, you have to think about it, think about Yuan Gong, Yuan Gong's bones are not cold now!" The strong man's words made the temperature of the study drop a few points, and Wan Gong couldn't help shivering.

Yuan Gong is the head of the Yuan family in Beiping City. He controls [-]% of the grain shops in Beiping. One of his daughters also married Yang Tianlong as a concubine.

If it is said that aristocratic families are also divided into grades, then there are a total of seventeen upper-class aristocratic families in Beiping, real centuries-old families, but since the Yuan family was destroyed, there have been sixteen families.

This also made other aristocratic families wake up in an instant. No matter how glorious your family was once and how much wealth it controls now, it is vulnerable and slaughtered in front of a powerful army.

As soon as the Yuan family was punished, the other aristocratic families immediately calmed down. They were very cooperative with Liu De's control of Beiping, but there were still aristocratic families secretly strengthening their own strength, recruiting followers, building docks outside the city, or sending their descendants to other states. , so that the family heirs will not be cut off in the end.

The same is true of the Wan family, but the background of the Wan family is not outstanding among these sixteen families, but the character of the head of the Wan family is weak, which is why Yang Tianlong became the target of lobbying.

The Patriarch of the Wan family showed an embarrassed smile, "What did the general say? I really don't know very well. The Yuan family took the lead in resisting the Duke of Han, and it was their own fault to be killed. The old man is quite responsible. How could the Duke of Han attack the old family? "

"Wan Gong still has a fluke mentality?"

The strong man approached Patriarch Wan and said, the stench from the strong man's mouth made Patriarch Wan frowned and leaned back hard.

The strong man grinned and didn't take it seriously, "Not to mention [-] to [-]%, [-] to [-]% of the various industries in Beiping that are occupied by aristocratic families should exist, and they have a lot of land. Without the operation of the aristocratic family, this Beiping The city is almost impossible to run. Do you think that with Liu De's strong character, he would be willing to stay in the uncontrollable city of Beiping? But your majesty is different from Liu De. You should know how your majesty treats you, and he will definitely not treat you Instead, you need to continue to serve under His Majesty."

"Many powerful families in Jizhou still serve as officials in counties and counties. How can Duke Han be able to move? The general is too exaggerated!" Wan Gong retorted, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"It's not moving now because of the lack of officials under Duke Han's command. Just wait until Duke Han builds the school and holds the imperial examinations a few more times. Until then, it's time for Liu De to liquidate you!"

The strong man's words pierced into Wan Gong's heart like a sharp knife, and Wan Gong's back felt a little chilly. He remembered Liu De's grand wish to Hua Tuo at the banquet:

Learn to be taught, sick to be treated, old to be supported, and living to be lived!
This is a hoe digging the foundation of the family!

The Patriarch of the Wan family was really unwilling to give up his current power, so he was cruel and nodded to the strong man, "Then follow the general's words!"

The brawny man nodded in satisfaction, "When Beiping is captured, you will have a share of the Gao family's fortune!"

"Is what the general said true?"

Patriarch Wan stood up in surprise, with a face full of disbelief, "Your Majesty wants to attack the Gao family?"

"The Gao family is a group of ungrateful people. Whether it is Gaoshi City or Gaolin Gaolin, they have failed His Majesty's expectations of them, and His Majesty hates them deeply! If it weren't for their Gao family, Liu De would not have been so easy in Beiping City." master?"

The brawny man obviously hated the Gao family to the bone, he would gnash his teeth as soon as he raised the family, he wished he could tear the Gao family into pieces, get rid of them and hurry up!
The Patriarch of the Wan family had long been salivating over the Gao family's foundation, but now that the strong man said that he would deal with the Gao family after the capture of Beiping City, his mind suddenly became active, which was completely different from the hesitation just now.

Hearing this, the strong man felt extremely contemptuous in his heart, but he didn't show it on the outside.

The Patriarch of the Wan family took the strong man's hand, still worried: "How many families has the general contacted, and what is the winning rate?"

The strong man said: "Wan Gong, don't worry, now everyone in Beiping City misses Zhao, and there is no one who misses Han!"

"General, you still have to be very careful. Liu De's guards are very powerful. The whole of Beiping is full of their people. If you are not careful, you may be exposed!" The Patriarch of the Wan family was still worried, and continued to warn.

The strong man then said: "Of course I know the strength of the Arch Guard Division, but how long has the Arch Guard Division been in Beiping, and how long have we been in Peiping, it is simply impossible for the Arch Guard Division to find us!"

After the strong man finished speaking, he left in a hurry.

Patriarch Wan looked at the leaving figure of the strong man, sat down on his seat, and sighed in his heart: "I really don't know if it's a blessing or a curse!"

Dai Zong visited Jian Yong in a hurry in the middle of the night. In Jian Yong's study, Dai Zong reported to Jian Yong: "My lord, I have found out that there are changes in several families."

"Is there any definite evidence?"

"Someone who was watching discovered that someone was visiting those families, but that person acted very sharply, and I lost my person, so I guessed that that person is probably Yang Tianlong's person!" Dai Zong said.

Jian Yong kept tapping on the table in his hands, and quickly searched his head, and asked Dai Zong: "How about taking all these families down?"

Dai Zong was a little hesitant, and said bluntly: "It may cause panic in the city. After all, we have not caught the exact handle of the aristocratic family. It is very likely that some originally neutral aristocratic families will completely fall to the false emperor Yang Tianlong, and it will also damage our lord's reputation. .”

"you're right!"

Jian Yong nodded and agreed.

"Continue to monitor these aristocratic families. Their soldiers are under the control of General Chen Qi. If you want to cooperate with the false emperor, you can only take the opportunity to open the city gate. There is no other way. We can take advantage of them to open the city gate. Come and beat the dog behind closed doors, let the enemy have a taste of our strength! In this way, we also have evidence, and we can get rid of this group of aristocratic families!"

"My lord is right!"

"That's it!" Jian Yong took a piece of cloth, and the pen was like a snake, writing on the whole cloth, folded it, and handed it to Dai Zong, "Give this to General Yan immediately, and ask him to cooperate!"

"The last general will go here!"

Dai Zong hastily responded, and quickly left Jian Yong's study room, into the thick night.

Changge City, Yang Mansion.

The Patriarch of the Yang Family is also the Sheriff of Changge County—[Yang Xiang], pacing back and forth in the lobby.

At the side, Yang Xiang's wife shouted at Yang Xiang: "What do you want to do when you walk around here?"

The Patriarch of the Yang family bent his waist and body, with a depressed face, and said to his wife with a bitter face: "Madam! Disaster is imminent!"

Mrs. Yang rolled her eyes, and said disdainfully: "You are doing well here, what catastrophe could come your way? Besides, you are the governor of a local county. In Changge County, you are the emperor of the land. You don't want others to suffer catastrophe. That's all, who would dare to let you face disaster?"

"My wife! You don't know that I, the sheriff, dominate the Changge City, and whoever treats me as a dish outside!"

Yang Xiang didn't go back and forth, but sat directly on the seat, and poured bitterness at his wife, "Now Liu De, the king of Han, has recovered all the counties and counties in Beizhou except Changge County, and wiped out the five counties. Wanhu people are the Hu people surrounding our city, maybe it won't be long before Liu De's soldiers arrive at the city, and that's when our heads will fall to the ground!"

"Why did Liu De kill you?"

Mrs. Yang's high-spirited appearance just now completely changed color, and she asked in horror.

"He, Liu De, wants to kill people, no matter why! It is rumored that in Liaocheng, he, Liu De, almost slaughtered the entire family in Liaocheng. There is blood flowing like a river, and corpses are everywhere!"

Madam Yang's face turned from blue to white, she was obviously frightened, and asked again: "Liu De is so cruel, can't your soldiers stop him?"

Yang Xiangqi beat his chest and stamped his feet: "How can my gang of wine bags and rice bags be Han Gong's opponents? I didn't see that the barbarians surrounding our city were all wiped out by Han Gong! Even the Tian family in Beiyuan is not Han Han's opponent. How can I stop it?"

Madam Yang gritted her teeth and said cruelly, "Then let's surrender!"

"Surrender? You're crazy!"

Yang Xiang exclaimed, "If we surrender, wouldn't the Yang family's foundation be handed over to others?"

"So what if you don't surrender? Since you can't fight, you might as well surrender. Maybe Liu De will not only spare us for the sake of our surrender, but may continue to let you be the prefect of Changge. After all, in Changge City , Your prestige is still quite high, Prime Minister Yang!"

"is it possible?"

Yang Xiang sat down on the chair, thinking deeply about what his wife said to him.

Mrs. Yang said at this time: "There is nothing impossible! I ask you, have you ever targeted Han Gong, or used small tricks behind your back?"

Yang Lian shook his head repeatedly: "How is this possible? I have neither deep hatred nor great hatred with Han Gong, and there is no conflict of interest. How can I target Han Gong?"

"My concubine is asking you, has a prefect of a county ever surrendered to Liu De?"

Yang Xiang continued to shake his head, and replied: "As far as my husband knows, there is no prefect of a county surrendered to Duke Han!"

"This is the end! If you surrender to Duke Han, you will be No. 1. Duke Han will treat you badly in order to buy people's hearts? Then what are you afraid of?"

Yang Xiang murmured: "Duke Han is very kind to the aristocratic family. He is not friendly, just in case"

"But there are also a large number of aristocratic families working under Duke Han, such as the Gao family!" Mrs. Yang continued to retort, "If you don't surrender now, you will be dead. If you surrender, you may continue to maintain the wealth of the Yang family. Why not surrender?"

"What Madam said is right, what she said is right!"

Yang Xiang nodded frequently, but still had a trace of doubt.

Mrs. Yang saw Yang Xiang's doubts, "Does your husband feel a little unstable?"

"That's right!"

Yang said to Mrs. Yang: "When we first surrendered, Duke Han entrusted us with a heavy responsibility. But if Duke Han digests the long song before long, what will we do after the fall? We have to think about the future!"

"The concubine is asking you, do you know what hobbies Mr. Han has? Or, what are his weaknesses?" Mrs. Yang asked.

"Hobby? Weakness?"

Yang Xiang thought for a long time, and then he said hesitantly, "I heard that Han Gong married at least seven or eight concubines, does that count?"

"Forget it! Why don't you count it! It's good to have a weakness!"

Mrs. Yang smiled softly, "It's no big deal for a man to be lustful. For a powerful young hero like Mr. Xiang Han, it's normal to have a few concubines!"

"what do you mean?"

Mrs. Yang took a sip of her tea, and shouted outside the door: "Come here, tell the eldest lady to come over!"

"Yuhuan? You want to give the jade ring to Liu De? No! Absolutely not!"

Yang Xiang subconsciously objected.

"What can't be done!" Mrs. Yang tugged at the corner of Yang Xiang's clothes, and reprimanded rather disappointingly: "My daughter will marry sooner or later, isn't it more beautiful to marry Han Gong as a concubine than other people's main house? When the Duke of Han was there, our daughter was the concubine and noble concubine, so she might not be able to compete for the position of the lord of the harem."

Yang Xiang didn't refute, and obviously agreed with his wife's statement.

"Father, mother, are you looking for a child?"

A crisp voice came from outside the door, which was mellow and charming.

"Yuhuan! Come in!"

Yang Xiang tidied up his clothes, sat on the chair, and shouted to his daughter outside the door.

Now that he has decided to surrender to Liu De, Xiang Yang has nothing to hesitate. If he can exchange his daughter for the wealth of the Yang family's more than a hundred people, it will be worth it.

And is the opinion of my daughter important?

Liu De led the army to Beiping in a hurry. Zu Ti rushed to Liu De's side and said to Liu De: "My lord, there is a friend named Liu Kun who is quite talented in military affairs, good at literature, proficient in rhythm, and martial arts." Gao Qiang, I am willing to serve my lord, so I would like to introduce you!"

"Oh, Liu Kun?"

Liu De didn’t expect Liu Kun to come here in this way. That’s right, Liu Kun and Zu Di were good friends in history, and the Book of Jin also put them in the same biography, and Liu Kun’s evaluation is also very good. Pertinent.

Liu De said to Zu Di, "Where is Liu Kun?"

"It's in a certain army!"

"Let him come over!" Liu De said to Zu Di.

"Yes!"

Zu Ti cupped his hands, and after a while, Zu Di brought a strong man to Liu De.

The man's words completely shocked Liu De.

"My lord, do you know your clan?"
