Chapter 350: Direct admonishment in governance, excitement in Zhenbei
When Lu Yi said that Wei Yan was available, everyone present looked surprised.
Those who can be kept by Mi Yang tonight are all his confidants.
Among the dozen or so people left behind, Wei Yan was not among them.
Mi Yang's behavior is enough to show that he does not fully trust Wei Yan.
But Lu Yi, knowing this clearly, still said the words "Wei Yan is available", which is undoubtedly surprising.
But compared to everyone's surprise, after listening to Lu Yi's suggestion, Mi Yang's face showed a thoughtful look, and he motioned for Lu Yi to continue.
After receiving Mi Yang's signal, Lu Yi raised his hands and said to Mi Yang and his colleagues present:
"The monarch's power is enough to intimidate Xiaoxiao, but the monarch needs to stay in Nanzheng and cannot visit the camp in person.
Therefore, to ensure nothing goes wrong, the monarch should send a general to guard the camp outside the city on his behalf.
In this way, if there are monarchs inside the city who are in charge of coordinating the center, and there are generals outside the city who can calm the troops, even if they want to cause chaos, they will definitely not be able to do it."
Lu Yi meant that in order to prevent military chaos, the best way would have been for Mi Yang to take charge of the camp himself, but as Mi Yang was the shepherd of Liangzhou, it was best not to leave Nanzheng.
So Mi Yang needs to make second-hand preparations at this time.
After understanding what Lu Yi meant, everyone nodded.
In order to completely prevent the occurrence of military chaos, Lu Yi's countermeasure is indeed a good idea.
only.
After listening to Lu Yi's advice, Fa Miao immediately expressed his doubts: "What Ji Yang said is reasonable. But now that the monarch has many good generals, why must he use Wei Yan, a rebellious general?"
Where are people?
Wild horses are inherently difficult to tame, and if they are allowed to escape, the consequences will be endless."
When Fa Miao was in Nanzheng, he saw Wei Yan's arrogant look many times. It was obvious that Fa Miao had concerns about Wei Yan because of Wei Yan's past actions.
On this point, Fa Miao agreed with most officials in both the government and the public.
Moreover, as Famiao said, Mi Yang now has many good generals under his command, so in his opinion, there is no need to use Wei Yan.
The worries in Fa Miao's heart were also the worries in the hearts of most people present. After Fa Miao finished speaking, many people present nodded involuntarily.
However, since Lu Yi dared to come out and make these remarks, he must have his reasons.
I saw Lu Yi continue to say: "Chengyuan, Boqi, Shizai and so on are all good generals for a while.
However, what we are worried about is that something will happen to the tens of thousands of troops who originally belonged to Hanzhong. Among these tens of thousands of troops, Chengyuan and other generals do not have significant prestige.
Compared with Chengyuan generals, Wei Yan served as the governor of Hanzhong for several years. In previous years, he was praised by His Majesty for his good care of soldiers.
Therefore, among the tens of thousands of troops, Wei Yan's kindness and power will not be lower than Wu Yi's.
With such grace and power, Wei Yan could ensure that the tens of thousands of troops would not cause chaos for the king.
Furthermore, among the generals in Liangzhou, except for Junhou and Wu Yi, Wei Yan has the highest military rank, so it is reasonable and reasonable to use him to temporarily control the tens of thousands of troops."
After giving the above reasons, Lu Yi continued:
"What Manjusri said is also reasonable, but as Manjusri said, Wei Yan is a lonely and arrogant person. With his character, he may be able to work with Wu Yi, but he will definitely not collude with Wu Yi.
Wei Yan was not loyal to the king, but as long as he did not collude with Wu Yi, it would be safe to temporarily put the tens of thousands of troops in his hands.
The princes can also send Chengyuan, Boqi and other generals, Wei Yan, Vice-Secretary, to check and supervise him, so as to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
After Lu Yi finished explaining his reasons, everyone present, including Fa Miao, had deep thoughts on their faces.
I have to say that what Lu Yi said is very reasonable.
Since what Lu Yi said makes sense, naturally no one will have any doubts about it.
After seeing that all his colleagues had no doubts, Lu Yi stepped forward and continued to persuade Mi Yang:
"There is no objective standard for slander and praise, affirmation and denial.
Even when a wise master makes a judgment, he often makes mistakes due to the opinions of the world. Once he makes a mistake, it may cause bad results.
Although Wei Yan has a bad reputation, now is the time for the princes to use him to stabilize Liangzhou.
I also hope that you will not make wrong judgments based on personal likes and dislikes."
After listening to Lu Yi's advice, Mi Yang's expression changed slightly.
Lu Yi said this as if he had done something wrong if he did not adopt his advice.
But then Mi Yang thought about it, isn't this Lu Yi's character?
He is simple, clear and capable in his administration, but sometimes he seems not tactful enough.
Mi Yang is not a mediocre person, and what Lu Yi said just now is very reasonable. In addition, didn't he value Lu Yi's personality and let him serve as the governor of Liangzhou?
He should feel happy to have such a minister.
Looking at Lu Yi standing in front of him, Mi Yang said with a smile on his face: "Ji Yang's words make sense.
In that case, let's handle this matter according to Ji Yang's wishes."
Seeing that Mi Yang agreed to his proposal, Lu Yi quickly bowed to Mi Yang and said, "Your Majesty is wise."
After Lu Yi bowed to Mi Yang, Mi Yang saw that it was already very late and the preliminary matters had almost been discussed, so he asked all the confidants present to retire first and rest.
After everyone left, seeing no one around, Mi Yang took out the tiger charm that Wu Yi handed over from his arms.
Looking at the tiger charm shining with cold light in his hand, Mi Yang's eyes showed some coldness.
Guan Yan asked him today why he wanted to take away Wu Yi's military power so quickly.
Under Guan Yan's questioning, Mi Yang told Guan Yan most of the reasons, but there was one thing he didn't say in his heart.
Although Mi Yang has always held a foreign position, because Mi Zhu and Mi Fang are in Chengdu, he is very familiar with many things in Chengdu.
From the secret letter sent by Mi Fang not long ago, Mi Yang learned that in the past year, the statue of Her Majesty the Queen in the Chengdu Palace, which originally looked like a sculpture, has become more and more active.
Especially when it comes to taking care of Adou's daily life, Her Royal Highness the Queen is meticulous and hands-on.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Her various actions can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, and she is deliberately cultivating a personal relationship with Adou.
The reason why she suddenly did this is not difficult to guess based on the political tradition since the Han Dynasty.
Historically, the Wu family seemed quite peaceful on the surface in the reign of Ji Han.
It's just that in this world, the power of the Han Dynasty is different from that in history. Because of this huge difference, many careerists and politicians began to become restless.
Mi Yang understands the thoughts of Wu Yi's brother and sister. It is the obsession of everyone in this world to carry forward the family.
Just because he understands it doesn't mean he will acquiesce.
He is willing to serve Liu Bei as his master because Liu Bei is as kind to him as a mountain and is like a biological father.
He was willing to take Zhuge Liang as his teacher because Zhuge Liang taught him carefully and had nothing to hide.
But what is Wu Yi and Wu Ban?
The big men are what they are today, have they paid anything?
If they want to sit back and enjoy the success, Mi Yang will not let them do so easily.
Today, he used vigorous and resolute means to seize Wu Yi's military power, which was a warning to him.
If Wu Yi still doesn't know how to restrain himself and has any delusions, Mi Yang won't mind telling him the truth in the future:
What is the palace? The palace and the palace are all integrated into one.
...
Early the next morning, in Wei Yan's mansion.
Although Wei Yan was not Mi Yang's confidant, Mi Yang was not someone who treated his subordinates harshly.
After returning to Nanzheng City, Mi Yang specially selected a mansion next to the Prefecture Mufu and gave it to Wei Yan.
This was considered a kind of compensation from him to Wei Yan.
But the splendid mansion was not what Wei Yan wanted.
Last night Wei Yan was drunk and was carried back by his servants. By early this morning, Wei Yan had sobered up from his drunkenness.
After he woke up and washed himself, he walked out of the dormitory in single clothes, sat on a stone seat in the courtyard, and looked in the direction of the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion.
The mansion that symbolized the center of power in Liangzhou originally belonged to him.
It's just that Wei Yan is looking in the direction of the Prefecture Mufu, not as angry as before.
He just remembered the scene at the banquet last night where all the generals handed over their military power, but as the general of Zhenbei, he could only watch.
That scene seemed a little sad to him.
If he had military power, he would have been willing to hand it over to Mi Yang last night, but now he has no military power at all!
Thinking of this, Wei Yan, who was sitting on the stone seat, couldn't help but sigh.
Wei Yan, who has a heroic personality, is not afraid of fighting on the battlefield, nor is he afraid of being hated by others. What he is afraid of is just not having the chance to make meritorious deeds.
This was undoubtedly more uncomfortable for him than killing him.
But just when Wei Changchang was sighing, his servants came to report that an envoy from the Prefectural Mufu's Mansion had arrived.
After hearing the news, Wei Yan's face first showed suspicion.
He himself also knew Mi Yang's attitude towards him.
Moreover, Mi Yang had just taken over the military power of the generals, so he should be busy now. Why would he send an envoy to the house of an untrusted general like him?
It's just suspicion. Under Mi Yang's past training, although Wei Yan didn't have any respect for Mi Yang, he still gradually regarded him as his superior officer in his heart.
With this in mind, Wei Yan quickly asked his servants to bring Mi Yang's envoy in.
Originally, Wei Yan only thought that the envoys sent by Mi Yang were just some minor officials in the governor's mansion.
Unexpectedly, when the envoy sent by Mi Yang was brought to him, he saw Lu Yi's arrival.
Not only did Lu Yi arrive, he was also followed by generals such as Ding Feng, Zhang Yi, and Fu Qian.
Seeing so many of Mi Yang's confidants arriving, Wei Yan's eyes suddenly narrowed.
This formation didn't look like they were giving him orders, but rather like they were arresting him for punishment.
However, when Wei Yan saw that Lu Yi and others did not carry a large number of soldiers behind them, the suspicion in his heart gradually dissipated.
When Lu Yi and others came to Wei Yan's side, they found that he was only wearing a single coat to receive Mi Yang's order, and they couldn't help but frown.
Even Lu Yi, who strongly recommended the appointment of Wei Yan in front of Mi Yang, was the same.
Wei Yan's behavior can be seen as a kind of disrespect to Mi Yang.
But Wei Yan's poor emotional intelligence has long been known to everyone, so Lu Yi and others could only pretend not to see this.
Let’s tolerate everything for the sake of the country!
Because Wei Yan's clothes really did not suit the senses of Lu Yi, a nobleman, so when Lu Yi came to Wei Yan, he did not delay at all. He immediately opened the document in his hand and read out Mi Yang's new appointment to Wei Yan.
.
After Wei Yan heard Mi Yang's new appointment, a look of disbelief appeared on his face at first, and then a moment later, the look of disbelief on his face was replaced by a look of ecstasy.
If he heard correctly, Mi Yang wanted him to take charge of the tens of thousands of troops outside the city.
Although Mi Yang made it clear in the document that he only let Wei Yan temporarily command the tens of thousands of troops.
Although Wei Yan also knew that Mi Yang's move was just a temporary measure.
But this news is undoubtedly a very surprising news for him who just sighed and lamented that his ambition is difficult to achieve.
Surprised, Wei Yan quickly bent down and took the document from Lu Yi's hand.
His current movements seemed quite urgent, as if he was worried that the document in Lu Yi's hand would fly away out of thin air if he was too late.
Seeing Wei Yan's behavior, Ding Feng, Zhang Yi and others behind Lu Yi looked at each other. They remembered Mi Yang's evaluation of Wei Yan in front of them.
Wei Yan followed Mi Yang for nearly half a year. During this half year, although he did not have many opportunities to fight and kill the enemy.
But because of his character, he offended most of the generals under Mi Yang in the past six months.
Therefore, in the past six months, many people have complained about Wei Yan in Mi Yang's ears.
That's why Lu Yi advised Mi Yang not to let other people's opinions affect his judgment.
But in the face of those complaints, Mi Yang never expressed anything.
According to Mi Yang's words: "Everyone's words are wrong, but I have judged them in detail. Although Wei Wenzhang is fierce and arrogant, he is not a man of authority.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He has great ambitions and is only willing to make meritorious deeds to rectify his name, so please don’t worry again."
Now that Ding Feng and others think about it, Mi Yang's comment is extremely appropriate.
Maybe Wei Yan thought Mi Yang didn't trust him, but what he didn't know was that Mi Yang was already very protective of him.
Just like Zhuge Liang silently protected him from behind in history.
It didn't take long for Ding Feng and others' thoughts to flow, but within this short period of time, Wei Yan had already rushed into the house, quickly put on a suit of armor and walked out of the door.
Wei Yan's speed really surprised Lu Yi and others.
But Wei Yan didn't care whether everyone was surprised or not. After he walked out of the dormitory, he looked at Ding Feng and others and said: "Without further delay, we will go to the camp outside the city immediately."
There is no joy at all on Wei Yan's face now, but a serious look on his face.
Although his character is notoriously bad among big men, he is also famous for the seriousness with which he takes official duties.
When Ding Feng and others saw what Wei Yan said, they immediately bowed and accepted the order.
After seeing Ding Feng and others taking orders, Wei Yan was about to stride out of the mansion, but just when he passed by Lu Yi, Lu Yi grabbed his arm.
"General Zhenbei is responsible for important national affairs, so you must be careful."
Facing Lu Yi's instructions, Wei Yan proudly raised his head and shook off Lu Yi's hand. He said with strong confidence:
"How can Wu Yi be so virtuous? It's only been half a year, and he's not enough to destroy my prestige in the army. Zhou Mu will not use me wrongly."
After saying these words, Wei Yan led Ding Feng and others quickly out of the mansion and rushed towards the camp outside the city.
Seeing Wei Yan and others leaving, Lu Yi stood there and let out a long sigh of relief.
