The Fufeng Fa family and the Chenliu Wu family are both noble families, and it is normal for members of the same noble family to sometimes help each other.
But similarly, if a certain noble family has received a favor from another noble family before, then according to the style of the noble family at that time, they must look for opportunities to repay the favor.
Only when there are comings and goings can we stay connected.
Wu Yi has experienced the world for many years, and he has now seen that the one who comes from Fa Miao is not good.
But as a member of a noble family, he had no way or the courage to break the unspoken rules among the noble family.
Under such circumstances, it was only natural that Wu Yi had no choice but to agree to Fa Miao's invitation.
This is why Mi Yang sent Fa Miao to invite Wu Yi.
Among Mi Yang's current officials, Fa Miao is not the most eloquent, but his background is the best.
Being from a famous family in the world, Fa Miao could do some things easily.
Fa Miao is a man who is not good at words. Now that the task assigned to him by Mi Yang has been completed, he has no intention of staying.
However, most of the officials of the Dongzhou faction were forced to enter Yizhou to escape. Wu Yi was the only nobleman who took the initiative to follow Liu Yan to leave the center of China and enter Yizhou.
Otherwise, no matter how much power we have now, it will be like a flower in the mirror and not safe.
After Fa Miao left, the loyal smile that had always been on Wu Yi's face disappeared in an instant.
When Wu Yi saw a smile on Wu Ban's face, somehow, the sensitivity he had developed over the years made him feel a little worried.
Thinking that Mi Yang might be brewing some plans in the Prefectural Mufu's Mansion, Wu Yi's uneasiness became more intense.
Of course, Guan Yan also enjoys these things.
If not, Wu Yi's sister would not have become the wife of Liu Mao and Liu Bei.
In fact, it is normal for Wu Ban to have such thoughts.
At that time, Liu Yan was the shepherd of Yizhou, which was equivalent to the local emperor of Yizhou. This was what Wu Yi liked about Liu Yan.
But Wu Yi thought that in the past, whenever he made some sacrifices and gained support, he often failed to get what he wanted most.
Wu Yi clearly heard every complaint from Wu Ban, but he just drank in silence and did not respond rashly to Wu Ban's words.
As another think tank of Mi Yang, Guan Yan naturally knows the purpose of Mi Yang's banquet today.
It is true that Wu Yi is now the general who conquered the north and the prefect of Hanzhong. After Wei Yan was deprived of his military power by Mi Yang, Wu Yi was already the second most powerful figure in the Liangzhou military and a senior official with two thousand shi.
But what he never expected was that as some characters gradually showed their talents, his position as the leader of the Dongzhou faction began to become unstable.
After listening to Wu Ban's words, Wu Yi let out a heavy cold snort:
Wu Ban asked Wu Yi in confusion: "Brother, what do you think the state pastor's intention is in sending Fa Miao to invite you and my brother to the banquet?"
In particular, Wu Ban was even more angry at Mi Yang's move of letting Deng Ai climb on top of his Wu brothers.
Unless their lives are in danger, no scholar in the world would make such a drastic move.
It's just that besides being angry, Wu Ban still had doubts in his heart.
Some of his confidants already know the purpose of his banquet today.
Wu Yi is a person who is good at speculation and dares to speculate.
At present, in the entire Liangzhou, Wu Yi is not inferior to anyone in terms of origin, and Wu Yi is only inferior to Wei Yan and Mi Yang in terms of prestige.
So Wu Ban couldn't figure out why Mi Yang wouldn't let Wu Yi become one of the three noblemen of the state.
Just now, his complaints were under the guise of worrying about Liangzhou's future. Now seeing that Wu Yi didn't respond to his words, Wu Ban could no longer hide his true thoughts.
According to normal development, Wu Yiruo has been staying in the Central Plains relying on his family status, so he has no worries about not having a career as an official.
It was just the occasional flash of injustice in Wu Yi's eyes that unknowingly revealed his true thoughts.
Originally, Wu Yi wanted to get up and send Fa Miao off, but his kindness was declined by Fa Miao.
Although Wu Yi's words were to stop Wu Ban from continuing to speak, it was clear from his tone that he was in a very bad mood.
Compared to the change in Wu Yi's expression, Wu Ban's reaction was even more intense after Fa Miao left.
Wu Yi was from Chenliu County in Yanzhou, and his uncle Wu Kuang was an official of He Jin, the general of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Maybe she is smart by nature, but she still doesn't know enough about some things.
The day for Mi Yang to entertain the ministers of Liangzhou has come.
Guan Yan felt that as long as Wu Yi was more at peace, she wouldn't have to take away his military power.
Thinking of the deals he had made in the past and the ups and downs he had experienced in the past, Wu Yi inadvertently let out a sigh.
It is true that many nobles came to Yizhou from the north to join Liu Yan. It was precisely because of these nobles that a special political force, the Dongzhou Faction, was formed in Yizhou.
However, after knowing his intentions, those close friends did not dissuade Mi Yang either out of flattery, selfishness, or indifference.
Of course, even though there was a precedent of Mi Yang hosting a banquet to arrest Shen Dan, Wu Yi and Wu Ban would not suspect that Mi Yang wanted to harm them.
After finally waiting for Wei Yan to leave, Wu Yi thought he could finally put things right. Unexpectedly, Liu Bei arranged for Mi Yang to become the shepherd of Liangzhou, making him the second-in-command again.
Those who are good at speculating must have a strong desire for power.
Mi Yang has many maids, but rather than having maids serve him, Mi Yang still prefers to have Guan Yan come.
Wu Ban's real thought is: Wu Yi, the three nobles of the state, should have a piece of the pie.
After Liu Yan moved to Yizhou as a pastor, Wu Yi took his whole family to Shu with Liu Yan.
Because of the anger in his heart, Wu Ban had a lot of complaints.
If the previous ruler dies and the younger ruler comes to the throne, the Queen Mother is often the regent. This has been a political tradition since the Han Dynasty.
Maybe Wu Yi is indifferent and won't do anything to hinder me.
It was obvious that Wu Ban's words just now had an effect.
In addition to his uncle who had held important positions, many members of the Chenliu Wu clan also served as officials in various parts of the Central Plains.
Is it just because of Mi Yang's love for him?
Is it a good thing for me, Liangzhou, that Zhou Mu is so nepotistic and favors favored ministers as soon as he takes office?"
In many people's impressions, Wu Yi has a very loyal character and is not good at fighting with others, but that's just because most people don't understand Wu Yi.
After Fa Miao bowed to the Wu brothers, he showed his intention to say goodbye.
As for Deng Ai!
He came from a humble background, was disabled and unlike Ding Feng, and Zhang Ni and others had military exploits, so why should he hold the post of chief registrar?
Wu Ban raised the wine glass in his hand, and after drinking it quickly, out of anger in his heart, he slammed the empty wine glass in his hand on the food table in front of him.
So after saying those words, Wu Ban continued to say to Wu Yi:
"Brother, Zhou Mu's arrangement does not take you seriously."
Only his wife Guan Yan would speak out her different opinions without any scruples.
Under such circumstances, Wu Yi resolutely made such a big sacrifice. His thoughts were certainly not simple.
Following Liu Yan to Shu with his whole family was just a speculative act by Wu Yi.
Judging from Mi Yang's personnel arrangements for the Zhou Dynasty, it is obvious that he has no good impressions of himself and Wu Ban. If this is the case, will he suddenly invite himself and Wu Ban to a banquet?
And judging from Mi Yang's behavior of sending Fa Miao to invite him, Mi Yang undoubtedly made up his mind to let him go to the banquet.
Originally, he was the leader of the Dongzhou faction due to his relationship with Liu Yan.
Hearing what Wu Yi said, Wu Ban's face showed a smile, and a feeling of dependence began to arise in his heart.
Wu Ban had this level of resentment in his heart, how could Wu Yi not?
"enough."
Mi Yang's behavior made Wu Yi feel suspicious.
Others may not know Wu Yi very well, but Wu Ban, who has followed Wu Yi since childhood, certainly knows that his brother is definitely not as aloof as he appears now.
Moreover, the official positions in the Han Dynasty had a very important characteristic, which was that they emphasized power rather than position.
Before the Wu brothers could react, Fa Miao left the living room on his own.
Although nominally the reason Wu Yi was looking for at that time was that Liu Yan had a good relationship with his father, in fact Wu Yi's original intention was not like this.
Seeing Mi Yang suddenly asking her question, Guan Yan's hands that were picking up Mi Yang's collar suddenly paused, and a look of surprise appeared on her little face at the right time.
Hearing what Mi Yang said, Guan Yan nodded in understanding.
And this suspicion is undoubtedly ridiculous.
Later, he surrendered to Liu Bei in time, and through transactions, he helped his sister Wu become Liu Bei's wife, thinking that he would be completely proud from now on.
However, Wu Yi did not get too entangled in this matter. He just said to Wu Ban: "As long as we have military power, he must be cautious before doing anything."
Is he destined to be the second child in a thousand years?
But he is a relative!
But for me, the result may be the same if there is someone holding the blade on the side of the couch and no one is holding the blade, but these are two different things.
Only by entering the Zhou Dynasty can one be considered one of the famous figures in Liangzhou.
This has been a tradition of the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years and has been deeply rooted in the hearts of every Han people.
What's more, the idea of relocating to peace and relocation was very strong in the Han Dynasty.
The situation was different and Mi Yang had no reason to do this.
Unless Mi Yang wants to rebel.
But in the Han Dynasty, there was never such a thing as separation of military and political affairs.
He is not a treacherous person, he is just a common man with a desire for power, and people like him are everywhere in the world today.
Although the three positions of Biejia, Zhizhong, and Chief Secretary are only officials with a thousand stones, it is difficult not to be tempted by the power held by these three positions.
Wu Ban's words revealed his true thoughts.
Perhaps it is time to write a letter urging the Queen to be more friendly with His Royal Highness.
Moreover, Wu Yi was not like this, he moved his entire family to Yizhou.
As the wine glass and the food table collided with each other loudly, Wu Ban also let out a voice full of dissatisfaction:
When Guan Yan was arranging Mi Yang's clothes, Guan Yan whispered to Mi Yang:
"General Zhengbei and my husband are both relatives, and they have great prestige in Hanzhong. Why should my husband be so anxious to seize his military power?"
Military power is the biggest asset that allows the Wu brothers to remain standing despite several changes in power.
Guan Yan's eagerness to learn and seek knowledge made Mi Yang laugh. He pinched Guan Yan's little face and said:
"Wu Yi is not my confidant, and he has a lot of troops in his hands. If he is allowed to have political power again, he who comes from a noble family will inevitably have some constraints on me in the future.
Thinking of this, Wu Yi felt unwilling in his heart.
Mi Yang is also a layman. He has always been a person with a strong desire for power, and this has never changed.
Moreover, Wu Ban’s disdain for Deng Ai is very clear in his words.
Although Fa Manjusri is still young, it is reasonable for him to come from a famous family and inherit his father's honors.
Wu Yineng led the Chenliu Wu family step by step in troubled times to where it is today, and his methods cannot be underestimated.
Early this morning, Mi Yang got up and freshened up under Guan Yan's service.
Faced with Guan Yan's doubts, Mi Yang asked Guan Yan: "Do you know why I rejected Wenshu's proposal and did not let Wu Yi become the governor of Liangzhou?"
"The three nobles of the state and dynasty have always been held by talented people from the noble family.
Lu Jiyang also came from a famous family in Nanyang, and he had a political reputation in the Han Dynasty. I can understand why he should be appointed as the ruler.
Wu Yi, who was restless, slowly stood up and walked to the door of the living room with his hands behind his hands. His eyes were looking far away in the direction of the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion.
Mi Yang enjoyed the feeling of his wife taking care of everything for him.
Maybe that day will be the time for him, Wu Yi, to truly rise.
After much thought, Wu Ban could only come to the conclusion that Mi Yang did not take Wu Yi seriously.
Just like when I was in Hanxing County, what I want is to have my own government, not to have any scruples."
But precisely because this reason was eliminated, Wu Yi was even more puzzled.
You must know that the most important thing for a noble family is the family prestige in their hometown. This is the most precious wealth accumulated by the ancestors of the family and left to their descendants.
But what he didn't expect was that when Liu Bei chose to choose the governor of Hanzhong, even though Liu Bei abandoned Zhang Fei, he still didn't let him become the governor of Hanzhong. Instead, Wei Yan was suddenly promoted to his head.
When Fazheng was born, he was completely removed from his position as the leader of the Dongzhou faction.
It's just that Guan Yan, who has a gentle temperament, doesn't agree with Mi Yang's radical approach.
Wu Ban's doubts also made Wu Yi shift his attention to this matter.
When Han people hold important positions, they usually take care of both military and political aspects. This is also one of the signs that the Han people are regarded as having a high status.
Wu Yi was still very dignified in front of Wu Ban. Seeing that Wu Yi was angry, Wu Ban promptly stopped saying anything about the matter.
Everyone seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages. If there are not enough benefits, Wu Yi has no reason to do this.
Time always flies by.
It's just that compared to Wu Ban, Wu Yi felt more resentful about not being able to control more power.
After Mi Yang listened to Guan Yan's doubts, a smile appeared on his lips.
But decades ago, the still young Wu Yi made a jaw-dropping move.
What Wu Yi wanted to achieve at that time was actually simple.
Within reasonable limits, Mi Yang will never give up the opportunity to control all power.
After listening to Mi Yang's words, Guan Yan showed some understanding on her face, but she still asked: "General Zhengbei is considered a talent. Do you want your husband to abandon him from now on?"
Facing Guan Yan's question, Mi Yang just smiled and did not answer.
At this time, his clothes were almost finished, so he picked up the sword in the hand of the maid and walked towards the banquet hall.
Whether or not to use it depends on Wu Yi's next performance.
