Wang Mi curled up his lips: "But Sima Zun is very disgusted with people who join the army. When his father was forced to die by Huan Wen, he even hated everyone with wood in their surname. Moreover, do you think Liu Yu wanted to establish an army?"
Yes, could it be him? I’m afraid that’s what Liu Yu wants to welcome Sima Dezong back.”
Xie Huan smiled and said: "But Sima Dezong has been sent away and went to Jiangzhou to be guarded by Guo Yongzhi. If Huan Xuan escapes, he will take him with him. In other words, it is impossible before Liu Yu completely eliminates Huan Xuan.
With Sima Dezong in his hands, he must have the banner of the Sima family in his hands. Even if he is not directly appointed as the emperor, he must have a regent prince to take charge of the government. Now it seems that there is no one better than Sima Zun.
It's more appropriate. He hates soldiers, but he won't be stupid enough to openly oppose Huan Xuan at this time. Liu Yu turned against Huan and restored the Jin Dynasty and was kind to him. And our high-ranking family supported him to rule and was also his great benefactor.
, it will be much more convenient to issue various orders in his name in the future."
Wang Mi nodded: "Being the regent is good, but apart from Sima Zun's support and our control of the families of the soldiers in the city, is there anything else we can do?"
Yu Yue said: "Then we need to protect the official documents, archives and ancient books of the imperial court. We cannot let these materials be destroyed by the war. It is best for us to get in touch with Liu Yu early and tell him that we will control the soldiers in the city.
The family members asked him to find a way to make the Beifu Army and Xifu Army defect in front of the battle. On the other hand, they also asked him not to rush into the city. If Huan Xuan chooses to fight in the field, once he loses, he will definitely not defend the city but will run away.
The overall situation has been decided, and I'm worried that Liu Yu's subordinates will get jealous and take advantage of the situation to enter the city and plunder. When the time comes, no one will stop them, but it will be troublesome."
Wang Mi looked at Xie Hun: "Shu Yuan, I know you have a good relationship with Liu Yi. At this time, Zhong Yu and I are keeping a close eye on Huan Xuan. We are afraid that we will not be able to leave the city easily, so we will send a servant.
, and it may not necessarily make Liu Yu and others trust them. After much deliberation, only if you go to see Liu Yi in person and convey our plans to Liu Yu and others through Liu Yi can we show our loyalty. No.
Do you know if you are willing to take this risk?"
Xie Hun curled his lips: "What's so difficult about this? The city is in chaos now, and most of Huan Xuan's troops have been moved to the front. My aunt has been operating in the city for so long, so it is not difficult to find a few secret passages out of the city.
You two, please go about your business and leave the contact matters out of the city to me."
Wang Mi and Yu Yue beamed with joy, stood up and saluted Xie Hun, and then hurriedly retreated. Several guards led them into a side door, put on their cloaks, and soon disappeared into the distance.
When Xie Hun walked to a separate courtyard, there were sounds of wooden fish and curls of sandalwood. In a side room, the sound of Xie Daoyun chanting sutras and worshiping Buddha could be heard. Xie Hun lowered his hands and stood respectfully outside the door. For a long time, an article
After the sutra was recited, a sigh came from the side room: "Yishou (Xie Hun's diminutive, only called this by elders at home, outsiders cannot call it this, similar to a nickname), if you don't go out of the city to meet Liu Yi, in
What am I wasting my time on here? I have made it clear just now that from now on, you will be the one to decide the affairs of the Xie family. There is no need to ask me again."
Xie Hun said quickly: "Aunt, no matter how stupid or stupid I am, I still know that you are acting in front of the two of them. How can the Xie family be without you to take charge of things?"
The door of the wing opened with a "beep" sound. Xie Daoyun was dressed in a monk's robe and sat quietly in front of the Buddha statue.
Do you know why our Xie family, starting from me, to Miaoyin, have all begun to eat fast and believe in Buddhism?"
A trace of confusion flashed across Xie Hun's face, and he shook his head and said: "Aunt, this is what my nephew has been confused about for many years. Everyone knows that my Xie family has believed in the Tao of Heavenly Masters for generations, and even children like Ling Yun have been
You were fostered by the Celestial Master, why did you start to believe in Buddhism from the West in your generation?"
Xie Daoyun sighed faintly: "Prosper your life. Before my Xie family crossed the river to join the Jin Dynasty, I was a famous Confucian scholar family in the Central Plains. My late father, Duke Kun, was a master of Confucian classics in the world. But after crossing the river,
In order to squeeze into the circle of Jiangzuo celebrities who controlled the government at that time, I resolutely abandoned the classics and followed metaphysics and became one of the eight great masters of Jiangzuo. It was after converting to metaphysics that my Xie family slowly increased their status and power. You know
, when we first crossed the river, the Zhuge family would rather marry the Yang family and the Jiang family, and would rather become subordinates of the Yu family, than take our Xie family seriously, which shows how difficult our situation was at that time."
Xie Hun nodded: "It was difficult for the predecessors to start a business, and the Xie family's foundation was hard-won. As the younger generation, we have to..."
A trace of disappointment flashed across Xie Daoyun's face, and he shook his head and said: "That's not what I meant. What I meant was that in order to adapt to the situation, our Xie family abandoned the classics and entered the mysticism a hundred years ago. However, although we regard ourselves as metaphysics, we have not
You have lost the old foundation of classics. What you have learned since childhood is still the Four Books and Five Classics. This is called Xuanpi Confucianism. As for the distinction between Buddhism and Taoism, it is the same. At that time, it was not that I believed in these gods and Buddhas more, but
First of all, Mr. Xianggong, you hope that I can believe in Buddhism. Do you understand why?"
Xie Hun nodded thoughtfully and said, "Is it because Tianshi Dao has traces of rebellion, so we should keep a distance from them?"
Xie Daoyun nodded: "You are right this time. Children of high-ranking families advocate metaphysics, like to maintain health, and take medicine, so they will inevitably have close contact with Tianshi Tao. However, Tianshi Tao has always been ambitious.
Relationships with powerful people, setting up altars to recruit disciples, and forming broad connections among the people. This was something that Xianggong was aware of when he was still alive. Although our Xie family cannot sever ties with Tianshi Tao all at once, we still have to give ourselves
Reserve a way out, so the women in the clan should pay more respect to the Buddha. This is the secret of our Xie family's ability to stand firm for many years. That is to be able to detect the crisis early and develop separately early. In this way, even if a disaster comes, there will be no
As for losing everything in one fell swoop, I will keep the opportunity to make a comeback in the future!"
Xie Hun said seriously: "My aunt's teachings, my nephew will keep them in mind."
Xie Daoyun sighed: "But I don't think you really take it seriously. If you really do this, you won't bet all your money on Liu Yi and fight against Liu Yu. You also
Don’t think about it, where are you going to put your cousin and our Xie family’s relationship with Liu Yu for decades by doing this?”
