Liu Chan looked at Zhuge Liang who suddenly became energetic, and he slapped his thick lips, and wanted to speak but stopped.
Zhuge Liang looked at Liu Chan and his eyes narrowed: "What do you think of Your Majesty?"
Liu Chan shook his head: "The decision of Xiangfu is of course good. I just think... I just think..." Liu Chan raised his chubby arm, scratched his head for a long time, but didn't say anything in a hurry.
"Does Your Majesty feel sorry for Wei Ba's talent?"
"Well." Liu Chan nodded: "Isn't it a pity to kill me?"
"It is precisely because of this that I want to tie him up." Zhuge Liang advised slowly: "Your Majesty, the father and son of the Wei family have made contributions to the country, and Wei Yan has even lost his body for the country, so he should enjoy wealth and honor. Wei Ba is extremely talented and capable of literary talent.
If he is able to be a pillar of the country, he would not be a minister, but he would rather work as a minister, and would be tempting to make a living, to cultivate his followers, and to compete with the court. This is not a way to be a minister, nor is it a blessing for the country.
For the sake of the country, we have to bear the pain of giving up and preventing problems before they happen."
Liu Chan blinked and remained silent.
Zhuge Liang gasped for a while, and some unnatural blush appeared on his pale face. He coughed twice. Liu Chan hurriedly came to his side and patted his back: "Xiangfu, why don't you...you should rest assured to recuperate.
. ""
"Thank you for your concern. I know my health. I can never survive this spring anymore." Zhuge Liang said with a hoarse voice and said with a grim smile: "I could no longer hold on two years ago and refused to let go.
, I just wanted to see if Wei Ba had changed his mind for two years. If he could understand the way to be a minister, then he could also entrust His Majesty to him, and smiled with a smile. Unfortunately..."
Zhuge Liang shook his head in disappointment: "It's a pity that he released his patronage and went to war, but he changed his capital and went further and further on the road. The old minister had no choice but to do this. If it weren't for this, the country would be uneasy. If it weren't for this, it would be impossible.
If you report to Your Majesty, it is not this. Then you have no face to see the late emperor in the nine springs."
Liu Chan sighed, opened his mouth for a long time, but said nothing. Zhuge Liang said something for him: "Your Majesty is worried that I will not be able to subdue Wei Ba?"
Liu Chan felt relieved: "Well, Wei Ba is not an obedient person. What if he refuses to come to Chang'an?"
Zhuge Liang laughed silently: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the old minister has already arranged it. If he is willing to come to Chang'an, he will be safe, and can enjoy wealth and honor and be a wealthy idle person. If he insists on his own, the old minister has to kill him on the spot. Therefore,
Your Majesty must prepare a few more edicts.”
"Kill it on the spot?" Liu Chan frowned: "What should he do if his tens of thousands of troops?"
"Your Majesty, Wei Ba died. Those tens of thousands of troops have no leader and dominate their own affairs. What's the point of being a trouble? The old minister has already made arrangements for Zhao to serve as the military supervisor..."
Zhuge Liang talked about the situation one by one.
The most dangerous thing now is the army around Wei Ba. These army is divided into three parts, part of which is the Shu Han system, led by Feng Jin, Fu Xing and others. They support Wei Ba. It is because Wei Ba is capable. Wei Ba is dead.
Who else can they support? Whether it is Wei Feng or Wei Wu, they are far away in Jingzhou, and neither of them has the ability to command. Wei Ba's eldest son Wei Zheng was born to Xiahou Hui and has the blood of Wei, Feng Jin
How could someone support him? As for the legitimate son Wei Yang born to Guan Feng, he was just a four or five-year-old child, and it was not enough to convince the public.
Therefore, as long as Wei Ba died, Feng Jin, Fu Xing and other Shu Han generals had no other choice. They could only choose to return to the court. If the court issued another edict to appease them and gave them additional titles, they would in turn support the court's actions.
The second part is the Wu Kingdom faction, including Bu Zhi, Sun Shao and others. The relationship between them and Wei Ba is still shallow, so they will definitely not turn against the court for Wei Ba. In addition, Bu Zhi is Sun Luban's matriarchy,
Zhao Tong could have reached an agreement with Bu Zhi. As for Sun Shao, he could not take risks in order to avenge Wei Ba. As long as the court issued an edict to give some benefits, they would readily obey the orders, at least they would not take the initiative to jump out and cause trouble.
The third part, that is, the most dangerous part, is Xiahou Xuan and other forces that originally belonged to the Wei State. It is entirely possible that they collude with Wei State and raise an army to fight with Zhao Tong on the grounds of supporting Wei Ba's eldest son Wei Zheng, and it is possible that
Join forces with Xiahou Ba and others. However, Xiahou Xuan is far away in Lelang and has not returned yet. The forces of the Wei State system cannot gather together. Zhao Tong has enough time to control them first.
Morally, Wei Ba was charged with resolute resistance. In terms of strength, Zhao Tong, Ma Zhong and others gathered Feng Jin and Fu Xing's strength, coupled with the neutrality of the Wu Kingdom, could completely control the current Qingzhou
The army.
The key to solving this problem is Zhao Tong. Zhao Tong is the son of Zhao Yun. As an old minister of the Yuan Cong faction, Zhao Yun has always remained neutral between the court and Wei Ba. He will not support Wei Ba in plotting rebellion, and so will Zhao Tong. Now,
Zhao Tong is the military supervisor. When Wei Ba was executed, it was natural for Zhao Tong to take over the command. He was Wei Ba's senior brother, and Feng Jin and others had no reason to object. His concubine Sun Luban was the princess of Wu.
The generals of the Wu Kingdom were inclined to him. With the help of Ma Zhong, Fei Yi and others, I believe he could stabilize the situation. As long as he survived the initial dangerous period, he would transfer the military power to Ma Zhong with an edict at that time.
, everything will be fine naturally.
After solving the army led by Wei Ba, other things will be solved. Guan Xing from Xiangguan, Guan Feng from Liaodong and others did not have enough appeal to raise an army. Even if Wei Feng and Wei Wu would raise an army, Zhuge Ke would have enough
The strength to subdue them.
In the final analysis, as long as Wei Ba himself is subdued, Wei Ba's powerful strength will turn into a mess of sand. They were originally gathered together because of their interests. Now that Wei Ba is dead, they are not only loyal to the court.
, What choices are there?
Liu Chan nodded repeatedly when he heard this: "How can we subdue Wei Ba? He is very good at it."
"No matter how good his skills are, they are just the courage of ordinary men." Zhuge Liang shook his head confidently: "Lu Bu was called a flying general back then, but Xiao Pei was defeated and died. Guan Yu was powerful in the world and was defeated, but he was only dozens of times when he was defeated.
The Wu army killed him. The courage of an ordinary man is not worth worrying about. I have arranged dozens of warriors to capture Wei Ba.”
Liu Chan said nothing. Since the Xiangfu had already arranged it, he would write the edict as required and use the seal.
After obtaining Liu Chan's authorization, Zhuge Liang immediately began to act. The officials were still arguing, but an undercurrent began to surge.
...
Li Feng hurried into the study, and the footsteps woke Li Yan who was studying. Li Yan said angrily: "What's the matter, so urgent?"
Li Feng complained: "Father, you plan to learn from Xianglang and start learning from now on?"
"What's wrong with Xiang Lang?" Li Yan put down the book in his hand and smiled slightly. He was defeated by Huguan, and he lost his military power. He studied in a closed door for several months. His temperament became gentler. "You, I, if
It’s good to be like Xiang Lang. What happened?"
"Wei Ba attacked Qing Xu, and there was a quarrel in the court, do you know?"
"I heard you said it." Li Yan raised his eyelids and instantly shined: "Is there any new progress?"
"I just saw a few fast horses leaving Chang'an, and they should have sent the edict. As for whom I gave it to, I don't know very well."
Li Yan thought for a while and said, "What else?"
"The Prime Minister's Mansion emitted a rumor, as if he was supporting the title of king, and was choosing an envoy to Qingxu."
Li Yan laughed: "So, the Prime Minister finally waited for the opportunity and was ready to take action."
"Can he succeed?" Li Feng asked anxiously. He was very dissatisfied with his father's onlooker mentality. The Li family was originally a competition, but now they can only end up watching the show next to them.
"Who knows." Li Yan said disapprovingly: "These two are well-thought people, who are calculating each other. Who dares to decide who loses and who wins." He paused and said: "From the overall situation, it is naturally
Wei Ba has a big chance of winning, and if he slowly consumes it, how can the Prime Minister waste him? However, when he looks at it from a small perspective, the Prime Minister has also had a chance to turn defeat into victory. If he could capture Wei Ba in one fell swoop, this matter... is really hard to say
. ""
"Wei Ba just obediently let him capture it? Wei Ba himself has good martial arts skills, and the masters around him are even more... "
Li Yan glanced at Li Feng and sneered: "How many brave Wei Ba can he be? When receiving the imperial edict, can he bring a large number of warriors?"
"You mean..." Li Feng took a breath of air: "Beheading tactic?"
Li Yan nodded: "Yes. Wei Ba likes to use beheading tactics on the battlefield. The Prime Minister changed to using beheading tactics in the court, and it was used legitimately, which is indeed admirable. Hehe, Wei Ba is young after all, he thought
Zhao Tong and Fei Yi are all his people, but they don’t think about it. If he dies, who else can Zhao Tong and Fei Yi rely on besides relying on the Prime Minister? So, as long as Wei Ba dies, the Prime Minister’s heart will be gone.
, I guess I can also feel at ease to get on the road.”
Li Feng rolled his eyes: "Then should we remind Wei Ba?"
"No." Li Yanxin picked up the book: "What kind of good person do you think Wei Ba is? I'm afraid he wants to see my defeat in Huguan. Now, it's my turn to see them and kill them to death.
After exiting this vortex, why should I rush in? From now on, you can stay at home safely and not go anywhere. Until the dust settles, someone will knock on my door."
Li Feng muttered: "I just don't know if the person who came to knock on the door congratulates or the person who reported the death."
Li Yan glared at him: "Idiot, of course I am congratulating you. Whether the Prime Minister killed Wei Ba or Wei Ba killed the Prime Minister, they all need you and I to help you, do you understand?"
Li Feng shrank his neck and said nothing. Of course, he hoped that his father's words were true. The idle life is too uncomfortable now. He is used to the traffic of the General's Mansion. He can't stand the lack of doors now.
Who would win? Li Feng's gaze passed through the window, looked at the white clouds in the sky, and suddenly asked, "Father, who do you hope will win?"
Li Yan paused and said lightly: "Of course I hope Wei Ba can win. Although he is as sinister as the Prime Minister, at least he is a little bigger and can tolerate his subordinates. Is the Prime Minister? He is almost crazy, and there is only that in his eyes.
A few people can live, and everyone else deserves to die."
