Lu Yao's words immediately surprised Xue Tong and burst into laughter.
He knocked his legs against the horse's belly and urged the horse to stand shoulder to shoulder with Lu Yao: "Can Daoming actually predict the future?"
"Where..." Lu Yao shook his head: "But, now the situation in Yecheng is turbulent, I believe you can see it too. I want to tell you some things."
Xue Tong pondered for a moment and said solemnly: "Please give me some advice."
Xue Lu and the other two were friends of hardships that were born and died together after the defeat of Daling. The friendship was different from others. For a long time, Xue Tong, who was born in the general, has always been an indispensable deputy for Lu Yao. He was extremely brave when fighting, but he was calm and determined, so he was deeply trusted by all the soldiers of Lu Yao. Even more rare is that Xue Tong also has considerable vision for everything outside the military and can make his own judgment. On Lu Yao's way on his way to the mission, he specifically reminded Lu Yao to be careful of the abnormal movements in the shogunate of Yue Shigong, which is an example.
The military strategy is very clear, and those who are good at fighting choose people and take the power. Xue Tong is undoubtedly a talent that can be used. Under the current situation, Lu Yao also intends to make Xue Tong take on more heavy tasks. However, the way of treating Xue Tong is different from simple warriors like Chen Jin. Lu Yao just happened to have planned that in response to the current situation, he needed to communicate in depth with Xue Tong, which is also the so-called "unifying thoughts and raising awareness".
Since Xue Tong asked, Lu Yao slowly pressed the bridle and thought, "There is nothing left and right, we might as well talk about it in detail..."
"Old Xue, you must be clear that Yecheng is the hub of Hebei, controlling the Zhang River and facing Taihang, supporting the wealth of the three Weis and tying the key to Jibing. If we talk about the importance of its status, it is probably second only to the capital Luoyang. In the past, Cao Wei regarded it as one of the five capitals; and after the great Jin Dynasty, Yecheng became another political center outside Luoyang. When Emperor Wen conquered Deng Ai, he specially ordered Zhonglang Shan Juyuan to be the general of the Northern Zhonglang to seize Yecheng. Shan Juyuan was a famous scholar in the world and a minister of the country. Therefore, for decades, all the famous ministers in the country have been conquered by the Zhuangwang."
"Over the years, the royal family has fought fiercely with each other, and the center has gradually weakened. Tianxiafangzhen, Yanzhou Gou Xi, Youzhou Wang Jun, Jingzhou Liu Hong, Liangzhou Zhang Gui, etc., are mostly well-known eagles. Even if they are as strong as the King of East China, they cannot be easily suppressed. Under such a background, King Xincai, who is the brother of the King of East China, died at the hands of the thief, and Yecheng is in chaos and has no master... Lao Xue, what situation do you think will happen?"
Xue Tong's expression moved slightly: "Daoming means that everyone is planning the authority of Yecheng?"
"That's right!" Lu Yao showed a sarcastic expression: "There are great powers, and all ghosts and monsters are ready to move. Lao Xue, in the past few days, senior civil and military officials in Yecheng, such as Li Yun, have visited me one by one and made countless promises. Hehe, Lao Xue, are they really grateful for our great achievements, so they love me Lu Yao?"
He stretched out his left palm and counted: "Li Yun relies on the military power of beg for life, this is one side; Yang Heng and Cai Keren are all famous people in Hebei, in charge of government affairs, and enjoy a great reputation in the local area, this is one side; how could the Luoyang central center sit and watch Yecheng lose control? I expect that within ten days, an angel will come to clean up the situation, this is another side. In addition, there is Lu Zhiluzi, who escaped without a trace. This is a deep understanding of the reality of Yecheng and has a profound plan. More importantly..." Lu Yao lowered his voice a little: "He controls the whereabouts of Sima Shi, the prince of Chengdu, the prince of Chengdu! If the rest of the king of Chengdu takes another move, this is another side!"
"The prince of Chengdu is still there? Did Lu Zhi have the idea of ​​unifying the old subordinates of Chengdu King and starting another war?" This news scared Xue Tong.
Lu Yao nodded: "Why should we be involved in such a complex situation of fighting in all directions? Naturally, they fought with each other and we should get out as soon as possible. Hehe, we followed the order of Yue Shigong to Dahan Mountain in Daijun to participate in the Tuoba Xianbei sacrifice ceremony. Yecheng was in turmoil, and it was inevitable that the people from Jizhou and even Heng and Dai were in the north. Maybe it would cause our tasks and cause other twists and turns!"
The two of them didn't speak for a moment. Behind them, cars and horses were walking in a rustling manner, only the occasional neighing of the horses and uniform footsteps sounded.
"But the problem is... Daoming, my old Xue is shallow, don't be surprised..." Xue Tong recovered after a long time. He hesitated for a while, and finally whispered: "I think there is also the reason why this situation occurs."
Lu Yao raised his eyebrows, held the reins tightly, and slowly let go. He glanced at Xue Tong and responded with no choice, "Oh?"
It was indeed something Lu Yao had not expected that Xue Tong could say this. He didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he had to snort coldly.
For several months, Lu Yao has gained prestige in the army. With just this sound, he has a faint sense of unexpected power. But with Xue Tong's old qualification, he is not afraid. He frowned and said, "Daoming, let's talk about the four directions you have just mentioned. Your Majesty, on behalf of the heavenly herders, is the right intention to send local officials. Yang Heng and Cai Ke are just weak scholars and scholars, at most they want to be happy and help them! And the other two... General Li Yun is an honest and kind person, and he has always respected you. Even if he has the intention for a while, with his talent, there must be a way to convince him. But, Daoming, have you tried your best to convince him? As for Lu Zhi..."
"Even if these people have strategies, they ignore the overall situation and are not upright. If they follow my ideas, they will be killed earlier, there will be no trouble." Xue Tong waved his palm and continued, "However, you clearly have a deep hatred with him, but you didn't deal with it earlier, but instead placed it in the military camp. Such a strange handling really puzzled me. Now that this guy has deceived that boy Zhu Sheng, I don't know where to go; if he has not escaped, would you want to use his power to seek Yecheng?"
As he spoke, Xue Tong suddenly seemed a little anxious: "Daoming, since the chaos in Yecheng started, I don't understand what you are thinking! You said you go with the flow, but you fought hard to defeat Jisang and strive to protect the overall situation of Wei County; you said you were interested in making progress, and you sat down and watched Li Yun release the thieves, but you were hiding the will of seizing the power of Yecheng; you said you were loyal, you were confused with Lu Zhi; but if you wanted to say you were unfaithful to the court... This... This is ridiculous!"
Xue Tong opened her mouth for a long time, "Oh!" sighed loudly, and suddenly shook her arms: "Daoming, I, Lao Xue, are already confused! What do you want to do?"
"General Xue, General Xue, you are tired. You might as well go to the central army's car to rest for a while..." He Yun, who was accompanying Lu Yao, saw Xue Tong's words intense and came out to interrupt at the right time.
Xue Tong ignored it and just rode a horse to follow Lu Yao closely. This action made He Yun even more nervous, and sweat was coming out of his forehead.
Lu Yao looked at He Yun, then looked at Xue Tong, laughed silently, and waved his hand to ask He Yun to retreat.
"During the Warring States Period, there was a great sage called Zhuangzi... Guo Xiang and Guo Zixuan, the metaphysicist of this dynasty, was famous for being Zhuangzi's annotation... Zhuangzi's friend Hui Shi was the prime minister in Wei State, and Zhuangzi went to visit him. Someone said to Hui Shi: Zhuangzi came to Wei State to replace your position as prime minister. So Hui Shi was frightened and sent someone to search for Zhuangzi in the capital Daliang for three days and three nights." Lu Yao gently stroked the horse's hair and slowly said: "So, Zhuangzi went to visit Hui.
Shi said: There is a bird in the south called the turtle. The turtle flies from the South China Sea to the North Sea. Although there are thousands of miles along the way, it will not stop if it is not the sycamore tree, it will not stop if it is not the fruit of bamboo, it will not eat, nor the sweet spring water. At this moment, a turtle found a rotten mouse, and the turtle happened to fly through the air. So the turtle looked up at the turtle and shouted angrily: Fright! Do you want to use your Wei Kingdom to scold me angrily?"
"Yecheng, in my opinion, is what Zhuangzi called the rotten rat. Li Yun, Yang Heng, Lu Zhi and others are all pikes that use rotten rats as delicious." Lu Yao smiled at Xue Tong and swayed the horse whip left and right: "Old Xue, are you dazzled and treating me as a pike that covets rotten rats? To be honest, I do have my plan, but it is different from what you guessed!"
Xue Tong grabbed Lu Yao's arm and said, "Let's talk quickly!"
*******
