"The wonder of application comes from one mind, and the mechanism of change cannot be guessed." Historical Commentary
After sending Huang Wan away, Huangfu Li was hesitant and decided to sneak away to Shiqu Pavilion to find his secretary Ling Shejian. Shejian's younger brother Sheyuan was Huangfusong's son-in-law. They were still brothers-in-law. They took care of each other in the court and helped each other.
Familiar.
She Jian, as Secretary Ling, was in charge of the Secretary Supervisor and was familiar with a lot of inside information.
"Gaishun has indeed made a big mistake this time. It not only harms his own future, but also hurts His Majesty's face. The most important thing is" Secretary Lang Shejian quietly pulled Huangfu Li to a remote corner of Shiqu Pavilion: "Your Majesty's inner plan
Being completely disrupted, even if there is a remedy, it will be difficult to do in a hurry."
"The remedy?" Huangfu Li wondered: "Do you mean to conquer Baibo in the East? If Gaishun is still allowed to lead the army at this time, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public, and some people in the court will not agree."
"Gai Shun's reputation has been greatly reduced after this incident. He must live a good life and cultivate himself for a period of time." She Jian whispered: "Do you know what books His Majesty has been reading recently?"
"I don't know much." Although Huangmen Shilang is the emperor's closest servant, the servants are also divided into three, six or nine grades according to their distance from the emperor. In the past, the servants were the closest, but now the secretary is the closest to the emperor, followed by the secretary.
That is the servant, and finally the Huangmen servant.
In particular, the emperor always read books in Shiqu Pavilion with his secretaries and supervisors, so that he could debate the meaning of the scriptures and study knowledge at any time. Therefore, even Huangfu Liruo didn't know what books the emperor was reading recently without deliberately asking: "Your Majesty, isn't it?
Do you like to read Taishi Gongshu, Hanshu and Hanji? I guess these articles have not been published recently."
"What your Majesty is reading recently is The Biography of Dou Xian in Han Dynasty!"
"Ah!" Huangfu Li exclaimed in surprise, then lowered his voice and said quickly: "But the part about leading troops to attack the Huns in the north and seizing Shi Yanran?"
Dou Xian, as a relative, led troops on an expedition and achieved real military exploits. This was the first time since the Han Dynasty that even his predecessors Huo Guang and Wang Mang had not achieved this.
Nowadays, the only people in the court who can be called relatives are the chariot general Dong Cheng and the Northern Army lieutenant Wang Bin, apart from the family members of the two nobles Song Hong and Fu Wan. Both of them happened to have military power.
As mentioned before, having Wang Bin as the head coach would do far more harm than good. Is the emperor really willing to choose this tactic of annihilating a thousand enemies at the expense of eight hundred in order to contain Dong Cheng?
He obviously has other choices, doesn't he? For example, Huangfu Song.
Huangfu Li thought this was very strange, but he secretly saw that She Jian had a sincere face and did not mean to deceive him, so he became more and more uncertain.
"This matter needs to be decided early!" She Jian calmly analyzed: "Huangfu is too timid to avoid danger. It is difficult for you and me to persuade him to fight with Dong Cheng. Your Majesty must also know the obstacles, so he dare not
Trust expectations.”
"Sikong Huanggong told me just now." Huangfu Li said: "I want you to try my best to persuade me and show your righteousness. As soon as the palace door is closed, please Lord She and I come to the house to talk to my uncle face to face."
Shejian knew that he and the Huangfu family were in the same camp, sharing weal and woe. Huangfusong could agree to go on the expedition and obtain military exploits, which would also be of great benefit to Shejian. So he did not refuse, nodded and said: "Then I will call Shangshe
Brother, let the couple go together."
In the evening, Huangfu Li still bowed to Qingsuo Gate and said goodbye, then turned and walked towards Shejian who was waiting by the car.
"Brother She has been kept waiting for a long time."
Shejian waved his hand and said it was okay: "It is a tradition passed down from the imperial dynasty to pay homage to Qingmen at night. I will be fine if I wait a little longer."
The two of them bowed to each other and got into the car together, looking at each other without saying a word. Huangfu Song was a person with great ideas. Once he insisted on his own opinion, he would not listen to anyone else's words. Thinking of the difficulty of this trip, and Huangfu Song's increasing depression in recent years.
Such changes made Huangfu Li couldn't help but sigh: "It would be great if Jian Shou is still here."
She Jian was stunned when he heard this, and there was a trace of regret in his eyes: "If Jian Shou was still there, Mr. Huangfu wouldn't be like this, and we wouldn't need to work hard."
Huangfu Jianshou was Huangfu Song's only son. He was smart, simple, filial and sincere. After Dong Zhuo came to power, he ordered Huangfu Song to be the city gate captain. The conquest was false, but the murder was real. Huangfu Jianshou had a long-standing friendship with Dong Zhuo.
After hearing the news, he immediately rushed to Luoyang. At the banquet hosted by Dong Zhuo, Huangfu expressed his gratitude to his father and kowtowed and shed tears on the spot in order to pray for his father's life.
Dong Zhuo couldn't bear it, and he did have some regrets, so he reluctantly let Huangfu Song go at the request of everyone. Huangfu Jianshou got his name from this, but it was a pity that he resigned and became the Empress.
He died of illness soon after. Huangfu Song was greatly hit by this. He lost his son in middle age, which made him increasingly depressed. He no longer had the courage and courage to fight against the Yellow Turban rebellion and defeat the Qiang Hu.
At this time, the two of them mentioned Huangfu Jianshou because they both knew that if Huangfu Jianshou were still alive, not to mention whether Huangfu Song would be so cautious and timid, they would say that Huangfu Jianshou, who was outstanding in virtue and talent, would still be alive.
He will surely be able to persuade Huangfu Song to lead his troops into battle.
But now Huangfu Jianshou has become a hidden pain in Huangfu Song's heart. After Shejian sighed, he couldn't help but remind him: "If you want to think about it, you must not mention him in front of Huangfu Gong, so as not to increase your grief and reduce your ambition to make progress."
.”
Huangfu Li agreed with this statement and nodded in agreement.
The carriages and horses wandered around for an unknown amount of time before they stopped in front of Huangfu Song's mansion.
The two of them waited in the side room for the belated arrival of the Sheyuan couple. After the ceremony, the Sheyuan couple went in first to pay homage to Gao Tang.
She Jian and Huangfu Li waited outside for a while, and saw She Yuan walking out alone, saying in a low voice: "Come in, Mr. Ming looks good."
Huangfu Li said: "Where is my aunt?"
"I've followed Zhuo Jing to the back."
Huangfu Song was wearing a loose Yanju uniform and was standing by the window with his hands behind his back.
When he saw them coming in, Huangfu Song didn't even look back and said calmly: "I'm old now and there's nothing I can do."
This sentence is both a quotation from the scriptures and a direct expression of my heart. When Wang Yun was deposed, Li Jue's rebels were approaching the city, and they were in danger. Why didn't you think of Gaishun at that time? Things today are like the past. If it is not irreplaceable, there are
Who would have thought of letting him, Huangfu Song, go into battle?
However, the example quoted by Huangfu Song still gave Huangfu Li and others a hint, and they all felt happy.
"Why did my uncle say this? Although Lian Po is old, he can still eat a bucket of rice, carry ten kilograms of meat, and be mounted on a horse. My uncle is the backbone of the army. At first, he was humble in order not to compete with the younger generation for credit. Now things have changed.
If you remain humble, you will only allow others to take advantage of you." Huangfu Li saw the opportunity quickly and said immediately.
"This moment is the same as that moment." Shejian also followed up and said: "Now that Huben Zhonglang is about to be impeached, he has lost the opportunity to go into battle. If Ming Gong still doesn't do something, wouldn't he give up the merits of the Eastern Campaign in vain?
General Chariot?"
"Give it to him?"
Everyone here is one of our own, and he didn't have any scruples when he spoke. Huangfu Song mocked: "It's better to say that Gai Shun is a person deliberately cultivated by your majesty, and he is the son of Gai Jingzhao's old friend. I let him, it can be regarded as Gu Quan
I have paid off His Majesty's high hopes for him and repaid the kindness of my old friend. And who is Dong Cheng? A mediocre person who was demoted by the rebels and became a general with the honor of a foreign relative, is he worthy of my surrender?"
Sorry, I was on the train just now. There is no signal on the mountain road, so it is difficult to post.
