Zhi Miaoyin's beautiful eyes moved around, looking at the mountains standing in the field, while looking at the more than 200 family guards around, and at the same time facing the civilians who were shouting like a tsunami from the stands everywhere, they cupped their hands and clasped their fists, and raised their hands
Liu Yu, who pressed down to show his kindness but asked them to be quiet for the time being, had a complicated look in his eyes, opened his red lips lightly, and said leisurely: "First of all, no matter whether Murong Lan is disguised or not, she will
She is an official envoy, a diplomatic envoy sent by Murong Chui, the leader of the puppet Yan Kingdom, to negotiate peace with our country, Jin. Regardless of whether she has committed crimes against Jin in the past, as an envoy, at least we cannot kill her at this time.
Can't take her down."
Sima Yao shook his head: "If she is an envoy, then reveal her identity. This kind of disguise has no sincerity. I can think that she is here to assassinate or to inquire about our military situation in the Jin Dynasty, and I will not treat her as an envoy."
Zhi Miaoyin sighed: "This is your Majesty's view, but from the perspective of the Puppet Yan, if the envoys who came to Jin to negotiate peace were detained or even questioned by us, it would be tantamount to declaring war on them. Now Murong Chui has wiped out Hebei
Many hostile forces in Qilu were also eliminated by Zhang Yuan, leaving only Ding Ling and Zhai Zhao still lingering, but it won't be too long if we think about it. If we attack Murong Lan at this time, then he will have reason to send his troops south.
First destroy Zhai Zhao, and then take advantage of the situation to conquer the Central Plains and the Huaihe River."
Sima Yao sneered: "How dare he?! The last time Murong Yong went south, he beat the shit out of our army. Even if Murong Chui is..."
At this point, he suddenly realized something and stopped talking.
Zhi Miaoyin nodded: "That's it, Your Majesty, the last time our army was able to defend Luoyang, it was because Liu Yu led two thousand backbones of the Beifu Army and voluntarily defended Luoyang. If it were just Governor Zhu's troops, I'm afraid
The Central Plains were lost the first time. Now that the puppet Yan is powerful, its military and national strength are stronger than that of Murong Yong at that time, and the Central Plains now has no good generals and soldiers to guard it, and even Zhu Xu has retired and returned to his hometown. If Murong Chui invades in large numbers, how can we resist it?"
Sima Yao gritted his teeth: "With Xi Hui going, there are also the Jingzhou soldiers and horses of the Huan family behind them, no, it's the Jingzhou soldiers and horses of the Yin governor. They will never lose the Central Plains and lose the old capital of Luoyang."
Zhi Miaoyin glanced at Huan Xuan's shed and saw that he was with Yin Zhongkan, whispering and discussing something, almost turning a deaf ear to the outside world. Zhi Miaoyin said slowly: "Yin Zhongkan is a famous governor in the world.
A scholar of Confucian classics, he is extremely filial to his father and loyal to His Majesty. However, after all, he entered Jingzhou alone and relied on Huan Xuan's support for everything. It was impossible to mobilize Jingzhou troops so quickly. The last time Xiyan invaded, Huan Xuan
Deliberately evacuating the soldiers and horses of Hongnong and Shaanxi Province put Luoyang in danger. If Liu Yu hadn't guarded Luoyang, I'm afraid that the Central Plains would no longer be owned by the Jin Dynasty. Once this kind of thing was done, it would
The second time, if Murong Chui comes with a large army, Huan Xuan will definitely not be able to expend his own military strength to fight head-on. Anyway, the Central Plains is not the territory of the Huan family, so defending it will be useless, and losing it will be blameless."
Sima Yao began to sweat on his forehead: "What about Xi Hui? Although Xi Chao committed evil and died, I can not hold the Xi family responsible for the crime of involvement. Xi Hui is also loyal to the court and will definitely be grateful. Now the Central Plains and the northern part of Jingzhou
The land of Nanyang is designated as Yongzhou and is under his jurisdiction, so he should defend it with all his strength."
Zhi Miaoyin shook her head: "Of course Xi Hui will not betray the country and surrender to the enemy at this time, but his subordinates are just the original Central Plains garrison, and many of them were brought back to Yuzhou because of Zhu Xu's resignation. Now he only has Yang
The original Xiangyang garrison under Qi, plus a few Luoyang defense troops, half of them were the troops surrendered by Xi Yan last time. If the puppet Yan attacks, these people are likely to defect on the battlefield and cannot be trusted. Even if Xi Hui resists with all his strength
, it’s nothing more than shrinking the perimeter, trapping Luoyang, and waiting for reinforcements from all directions.”
Sima Yao laughed: "That's enough. I can order the Beifu army to dispatch. Liu Laozhi is still loyal, and Wang Gong. You see, so many people are interceding for Liu Yu now, but Liu Laozhi
If you are still there, you are of the same mind as me."
Zhi Miaoyin sighed: "Do you have the same heart as your Majesty, or do you have the same heart as the aristocratic family? Your Majesty has no kindness to Liu Laozhi. He promoted him before because of the Xie family, and later rehabilitated him because of Wang Gong. Although
These are His Majesty's final decrees, but those who expressed his wishes were those high-ranking families, and those who gave him the power to recruit troops and supplies of food and grass for the Beifu Army were also those high-ranking families. The reason why he did not follow his subordinates to serve Liu Yu
I am asking for orders because I am afraid of offending those wealthy families who are silent now, rather than because I am afraid of offending you, Your Majesty."
Sima Yao was so angry that his face turned red: "You bastard, you don't care about the king's kindness, but you just follow the orders of the family. Doesn't he know that the power of these families is given by me?"
Zhi Miaoyin said quietly: "Your Majesty, the reality is very cruel. In the eyes of people like Liu Laozhi, the power of aristocratic families was given by the founding emperor. Just like Liu Yu said, you can't even connect the land granted by these aristocratic families.
If you don’t have the right to manage the family, you can’t collect taxes, and you can’t collect taxes, how can you still say that the rights to the family were given by you? If you gave it to me, you should be able to take it back at any time and transfer it to Liu Laozhi, but you
Do you have this ability now?"
Sima Yao was speechless and his teeth were chattering. His anger and helplessness could be seen from his clenched fists and red neck.
Zhi Miaoyin took a step forward and whispered in Sima Yao's ear: "Your Majesty, people like Liu Laozhi have fixed ideas in their minds. They will only be loyal to the family that promoted them and will not appreciate your benefits.
The one who can really defend you with his life in the future is Liu Yu, who is openly disobeying your orders now. As long as you can pardon Murong Lan, he will fight to the death and serve you!"
Sima Yao gritted his teeth: "But if Liu Yu doesn't obey my orders now, how can he serve me? I reluctantly agree with the first reason you mentioned. If Murong Lan is captured, it is indeed possible to attract Yan.
When the thieves invade, the Central Plains army cannot resist, and the Beifu army may not be willing to contribute. But if I fail to give orders here today, then I am afraid that no one in the Jin Dynasty will recognize my majesty and monarchy anymore. This loss is comparable.
The loss of the territory is even greater. Now, I want to hear your last two reasons."
Zhi Miaoyin nodded, took a step back, and said softly: "This second reason is what you said before the fight. You must thoroughly investigate the land deeds of these aristocratic families. If you want to do this, Liu Yu must do it!"
