A hint of vigilance flashed in Sima Yao's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Sergeant Liu, although there are many rumors about me and King Kuaiji, you have to understand that he and I are brothers after all, and our blood is thicker than water.
Your feelings cannot be alienated by a few slanderous words from outsiders. Although today, or ever since the fighting field, I have protected you a lot, but you cannot regard this protection as a reason for you to speak out."
Liu Yu said calmly: "If that's the case, why did your Majesty let Wang Gong and Yin Zhongkan go out of the two major vassal towns respectively? Wang Gong has always thought of attacking Qing Jun, who is he going to deal with? Your Majesty, I have a humble position in front of you, and I don't want to have any problems.
To cover it up, I just want to be a pure and honest minister, just like I have always been a pure soldier. If I don’t like what I say, I just don’t say it.”
Sima Yao gritted his teeth: "That's all, since today's matter has come to an end, I also hope that I can face you frankly. If you have anything to say, just say it. I can forgive you for whatever you say today."
Liu Yu nodded and saluted solemnly: "Thank you for your trust, your majesty. What I want to say is that since Wang Gong will think of Beifu soldiers Qingjun side in the name of loyalty to the emperor, then Yin Zhongkan will also think of Jingzhou soldiers doing the same thing.
, this would give Huan Xuan an opportunity to take advantage of it. If Huan Xuan tempted Yin Zhongkan to attack Xi Hui on the condition of seizing Xi Hui's troops, then Your Majesty thinks that the Yin governor, who is famous for his loyalty and filial piety, would refuse.
?"
Sima Yao frowned: "When you say that, it is really possible, but it will be bad. I am also aware of Huan Xuan's ambitions. I have mentioned it to Yin Zhongkan many times before, asking him to guard against Huan Xuan.
Don't let him take advantage of you. Even if Yin Zhongkan has the intention to make great achievements, he won't be so easily persuaded by Huan Xuan."
Liu Yu sighed: "I remember that when His Majesty asked them to leave the outer vassal of the town, some important ministers in the court strongly opposed it, saying that these two people were exaggerating and would cause chaos. Now it seems that this prophecy is coming true step by step. Black Hand
What the party wants is a complete civil war, to wipe out the small and medium-sized aristocratic families that have developed over the years in various places and are not under their control, or the local tyrants, and then neither His Majesty nor the King of Kuaiji can control the situation anymore.
, they can regain their power. Huan Xuan is the former mafia Qinglong, and is the chess piece that Xi Chao has been using. He is using Huan Xuan's ambition to restore his father's power, and controls Jingzhou through Huan Xuan, and Huan Xuan
They will also take advantage of Yin Zhongkan's ambition to make great achievements and instigate him to deal with Xi Hui."
Sima Yao gritted his teeth: "Then I will give Yin Zhongkan a secret order, telling him not to attack Xi Hui no matter what, and to be wary of Huan Xuan."
Liu Yu shook his head: "I'm afraid it's too late. Yin Zhongkan definitely wanted to make a difference when he went to Jingzhou. He, Wang Gong and Wang Guobao were at odds with each other. Now that Wang Guobao has returned to the sect of King Kuaiji, the conflict between the two sides
, on the verge of breaking out, King Kuaiji had already asked Yu Kai to leave Yuzhou, and Wang Yu, Wang Guobao's brother, to leave Zhenjiang Prefecture, making preparations for the Jingzhou army, while the Beifu army was strictly ordered not to cross the river and stay in Jiangbei.
, the capital's guards are under the control of Sima Shangzhi. If there is a change, Your Majesty will control them, and the reinforcements from the foreign vassals are beyond reach. The situation is not easy for Your Majesty now."
Sima Yao slapped the armrest of the dragon chair bitterly: "This is why I want you to be my bodyguard, Liu Yu, you said you are a loyal and righteous man, so will you use your life to protect me?"
"
Liu Yu said loudly: "Since I have accepted this order, I will definitely protect His Majesty with my life. However, I am afraid that I will not be able to effectively protect His Majesty."
Sima Yao stood up, his eyes bright: "Then what can you do to protect me?"
Liu Yu said seriously: "First of all, we need to divide and disintegrate the power of Daozi's party on the periphery. Wang Gong and Yin Zhongkan want to directly kill Wang Guobao by sending troops to the capital. From the humble point of view, this is a bad idea.
Not to mention whether they have personal ambitions and want to do what Dong Zhuo and Wang Dun did, even if they are dedicated to serving the country, as long as this evil example is set, future generations will follow suit, and our Jin Dynasty will never have peace.
, the civil war will break out in full force, and the foreign vassal vassals that have lost their guarding troops will be given the opportunity to invade by the Tibetan barbarians. I am afraid that not only will the Northern Expedition be no longer necessary, but the current territory will not be preserved. This is why I firmly refuse the cooperation of the mafia.
, because our Jin Dynasty cannot ruin national affairs because of these internal private fights."
Sima Yao sighed: "How could I not know the consequences of raising troops to the capital? But I didn't have a single soldier in my hands at that time. If it weren't for the troops from other vassals as a deterrent, I'm afraid they would have been assassinated. Now this
In the past few years, Wang Gong and Yin Zhongkan have at least deterred some people, so that they dare not be too presumptuous. If you don't agree with the method of sending troops to the capital, is there any way to make Daozi's party of governors stop attacking me?
What about posing a threat?”
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Yuzhou now belongs to Yu Kai, and Jiangzhou was given to Wang Yu. This appointment is the Daozi Party's defense of Jingzhou. Your Majesty can find a way to ask Wang Guobao to write a letter requesting to cede part of Yuzhou's territory.
Assigned to Jiangzhou, Wang Guobao's heart must be more toward his brother Wang Yu. Even though he is a fellow Taoist party, with his greed, he would rather make more profits from Yu Kai's hands. In this way,
You can make the Yu family turn against Wang Guobao, or even stand on His Majesty's side. Once Yuzhou falls to Your Majesty, that Jiangzhou won't be a concern."
Sima Yao slapped his thigh suddenly: "Wonderful, why didn't I think of this? But, how can I make Wang Guobao think of this?"
Liu Yu said slowly: "Miaoyin is talking to the King of Kuaiji now, and he still knows how to listen. You can let Miaoyin reveal this to the King of Kuaiji. Just say that Wang Guobao is the number one hero. Now they have finally reconciled, and they need to be won over.
Besides, Yu Kai's military strength and territory in Yuzhou are several times that of Jiangzhou. It is also appropriate to give a little concession and balance the two states. In this way, as long as the two pillar families of the Wang family and the Yu family turn against each other, the local vassal towns will be affected.
The threat no longer exists."
Sima Yao laughed and said: "Very good, then Sergeant Liu, please help me handle this matter. After it is completed, I will definitely give you a heavy reward."
Liu Yu shook his head: "I am working in a humble position, just to be a soldier of the Jin Dynasty and a citizen of the Jin Dynasty. I do not seek wealth and honor. If your majesty succeeds in this plan, the external threat will no longer exist. The mafia may become angry and directly threaten you."
Your Majesty is safe, so I hope that Your Majesty can avoid all contact with the concubines in the harem during these few months and change the candidates for my personal bodyguards. I am willing to recruit loyal and reliable veterans of the Beifu Army to become my personal bodyguards.
I wonder if Your Majesty would agree to keep His Majesty safe and sound within half a year?!"
