Liu Jingxuan was a little confused. He looked at Liu Yu and said, "What do you mean by this?"
Liu Yu sighed and said: "To put it bluntly, there is still the conflict between wanting to hold power for a long time, and obtaining titles through military exploits, and then gaining power. The noble families hope that we can be like the heads and stewards of their manors, for generations."
Become their high-ranking servants in the army, control the army for them, and fight for them. If we are obedient enough, we may be promoted to the in-laws or the like, or become a new small family, but we will never give up to them.
We will take over our position."
"Just like me, you may think that Xie An, the husband-in-law, has taken a liking to me since I was in Jingkou. He is willing to recruit me as his grandson-in-law and let Miaoyin marry me. This makes everyone jealous, including you.
Ah Shou, he also said that he was very jealous that I would embrace this beautiful woman."
Liu Jingxuan laughed: "I said it, but it was a bit exaggerated. It's not that I have any thoughts about Wang Miaoyin, but that my father has always wanted me to marry a noble daughter from a top family like the Wang family and the Xie family.
It's just that as a general of the Xie family at that time, he was not qualified to directly marry a noble daughter of heaven's level like Wang Miaoyin. In fact, what I ended up marrying was only the daughter of a concubine of the Xie family, and she was not as good as Wang Miaoyin in terms of status.
. Rather than saying that I am jealous of Wang Miaoyin, I am jealous that you married a girl from the Xie family and the Wang family who have a higher status and status earlier than me."
Liu Yu said seriously: "But have you ever thought about what they are going to do to us after we get the daughters of the Xie family and the Wang family? Will they safely allow us to take power in the army and become officials in the court?
?I now believe that if Xie An and Xie Xuan had not failed in the Northern Expedition, at most they would have asked me to leave the army and become a local official after marrying Miaoyin, because I do not have enough ability to govern a party, and they can definitely
In the end, some reasons were found to say that I was incompetent, and then I was dismissed or demoted."
Liu Jingxuan gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "That's what Huanxuan is like. It was originally agreed that my father would always be in charge of the Beifu Army, but before he usurped the throne, he sent my father to be the internal historian of Pengcheng. Grandma,
My father has never been a local magistrate in his life. He only knows how to fight. This is to seize his military power and then find excuses to harm him. So my father has no choice but to start a rebellion."
Liu Yu shook his head: "At that point, it is impossible for anyone to follow him in rebellion. If he wants to fight, he can only have a chance if he leads his army to fight to the death before Huan Xuan enters the capital."
Liu Jingxuan sighed: "Jinnu, you don't know something. The reason why my father surrendered to Huan Xuan in the end was because Sima Yuanxian, a bastard, also had the same idea and wanted to seize the army from my father. On his side,
Recruiting the so-called music subordinates, he wanted to build his own army. After causing a huge disaster like Sun En's Rebellion, he also set his sights on the Beifu Army in the hands of my father, and planned to let my father be the internal historian of Kuaiji and lead the governor of Yangzhou.
I have been promoted to a high official, but I want my father to give up the army and go to Wudi to be a magistrate, grandma, so that he can take over the Beifu Army on his own."
Liu Yu frowned: "Is there such a thing? This is the first time I've heard of it."
Liu Jingxuan gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "At that time, your status was not high enough, and my father was already on guard against you. He even got confused and listened to Doupeng's ideas and wanted to harm you, so he was hiding these things.
You, Sima Yuanxian even wanted to push you out and let you be promoted to the deputy commander of the Beifu Army first, and let him be the commander himself, so that you can command the Beifu Army. So when my father was in Wuzhen
He also has plans to harm you."
Liu Yu sighed: "So, whether these aristocratic families, clans, or various conspiracy groups, they actually regard us warriors as lackeys and minions. When they want to use us in war, they will make a show of kindness, and the war will be over.
When it ends, they want to kick us out of the army. This is the contradiction between us and them. In fact, we just want to stay in the army, practice with our brothers, practice martial arts, and form formations every day. This has become our way of life.
, but in their eyes, we are plotting all day long, hoping to use the army to overthrow them, eliminate them, and seize the power in their hands. Therefore, as soon as the war is over, we soldiers will become the number one enemy of the noble families.
The army will be disbanded and the generals will be idle. Otherwise, they cannot rest at ease."
Liu Jingxuan sneered: "I don't have the ability to lead troops, I don't know how to train, and I don't want to endure hardship, but I am always jealous and suppressing capable people. This is the reason why the noble family is becoming more and more corrupt. Wang Gong was the same in the past. He thought
Relying on the Beifu Army to consolidate his power and suppress the Xie family and Jingzhou, he brought my father out to reorganize the Beifu Army after the Battle of Feishui. However, the contempt and disdain for us warriors in his heart could not be hidden.
, my father helped him kill Wang Guobao, Wang Gong thought he had great power, and even asked my father to see him every three days to report the affairs in the camp and ask for rewards for the soldiers.
He avoided it until the civil war broke out again, and then he panicked and wanted to sworn brothers with my father. Hmm, how could we fall into his trap again?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "But what difference does it make if you switch to Sima Yuanxian? Like Wang Gong, he promised huge profits when he won over you, but after using your father and son and the Beifu Army to eliminate Wang Gong, he and Wang Gong
Just like that, he turned a blind eye to you, and even wanted to seize the Beifu Army and expel you from the army. Your father just didn't understand this. He always wanted to serve the family, the clan, be their pawn, and be driven by them.
This will be the result."
Liu Jingxuan shook his head helplessly and said: "My father has too little education and insufficient city government. He only knows how to fight, so he can play around with these noble families. Finally, after he thought about it all, he realized that he was the only one who became a wealthy family.
Only by taking control of the political power can he protect himself, so he took another evil path and wanted to become a member of the Mafia Qiankun. He thought that in this way he could become an aristocratic family and be on an equal footing with the aristocratic families. If only I had known these things earlier, if I had known these things earlier,
I’ll discuss it with you and try to persuade him together, maybe he won’t end up like this.”
Liu Yu waved his hand: "Ah Shou, there will be no change. What really made your father embark on these paths was not the temptation from the outside world, but his own ambition. He always wanted to have soldiers as generals, and always thought that the army
It belongs to him alone. He did not let go when he should let go, was not loyal when he should be loyal, and put his personal interests before the country and the people of the world. This was the fundamental reason for his failure!" (End of Chapter)
