Tao Yuanming's eyes were bright and his voice was sonorous and powerful, revealing a fascinating magnetism: "While Huan Zhen was marching north to attack Lu Zong, Liu Guanjun used his army to pull out the beacon towers and secret posts along the way where I provided positions to prevent them from reporting the news, and at the same time sent out capable personnel
The vanguard force, led by Lieutenant Mao Xiuzhi, and I rushed directly to the palace city to rescue His Majesty. What happened next is well known to everyone. God bless, Your Majesty finally escaped from the tiger's mouth. I am very lucky to be promoted, and the world is very lucky.
!”
At this point, there was a burst of thunderous cheers in the palace, and many people cheered excitedly. Even Wang Yu and Yu Yue could only nod and praise. After all, after hearing this story of the emperor's escape, even if it was to show loyalty
, but also to show something and pretend to be happy.
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly, looked at Tao Yuanming, and said: "Tao Gong has worked hard and accomplished a lot. I admire him. I admire him. However, I have a little problem. I heard that it was not you and Captain Mao who rescued your majesty in the end, but His Highness Prince Qiao."
, what is going on? Could it be that King Qiao also made an appointment with you in advance to act separately?"
Tao Yuanming sighed: "No, this journey was completely beyond my expectation. Sima Xiuzhi, the king of Qiao, secretly sneaked into Jingzhou on the orders of the regent King Wuling. He found the man who had been under Huan Xuan's tent, but
After Huanxuan was defeated and fled to Jiangling, General Fu Hongzhi, who had left Huanxuan, persuaded General Fu to come with him to rescue him. This was because Fu Hongzhi's cousin Fu Liang was now an official in Jiankang, and Fu Hongzhi had served during Liu Zhenjun's founding.
Rather than having fought against them and knowing the combat effectiveness of the Beifu Army, I also knew that the Huan Chu regime had lost all support and promptly abandoned the secrets and surrendered to the bright side."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Fu Hongzhi is indeed a good general in Jingzhou. He also served as a palace guard and had frequent contact with His Majesty. He is from Niyang in the north. During the war in the north, his family went south. He first joined the army in Yongzhou.
, later joined Huan Chu, and finally came to the capital. It can be said that there are many talents like Jingzhou, and the troops who have followed him for many years are also loyal. In Jiangling City, there is such a team, which is enough to rescue His Majesty in the chaos.
It's just that the timing is a bit too coincidental, even Bian Fanzhi and Huan Zhen don't know when you will take action, so how can King Qiao and General Fu prepare in advance?"
Tao Yuanming smiled and said: "They were just like Huan Zhen who sneaked into Jiangling City. They also took advantage of Huan Zhen's recruitment and sent his subordinates to sneak into the city in batches. Sima Xiuzhi lurked in the city early, while Fu Hongzhi and his subordinates
They are natives of Jingzhou and have served in the Chu army, so Huan Zhen's subordinates who recruited troops did not suspect them. They did not know my plan. They just wanted to wait and act in the city and rescue His Majesty when the defense was empty. It was a mistake.
On that day, Liu Guanjun attacked Jiangling at night, and the city was in chaos. Dozens of Fu Hongzhi's subordinates had already sneaked into the palace guards. They cooperated inside and outside and rescued His Majesty in one fell swoop. Colonel Mao and I were the first to kill.
We missed Bian Fanzhi, which delayed a little time, so by the time we arrived, His Majesty had already been saved."
Liu Yu's voice was steady and powerful, ringing from a corner: "It's really dangerous, Mr. Tao, after all, you are a scholar, but you still lack a little decisiveness in this kind of matter. At that time, the war was in chaos, and nothing was more dangerous than His Majesty's safety.
What's more important, Bian Fanzhi's life and death are insignificant. Even if you kill Huan Zhen, you should put it after saving His Majesty. You should go straight to His Majesty's palace. Moreover, before protecting His Majesty, you should not let him go.
The whole city fell into chaos."
Everyone's expressions changed. Only Liu Muzhi still looked normal. All eyes were cast on the sergeant standing on duty at the door in the corner outside the courtyard. He was tall and tall. Compared with the few heroes of the Beifu Army beside him,
He was still bigger, but like everyone else, he was wearing a mask, so his true face couldn't be seen. When he walked into the courtyard, took off his helmet and rubbed his mask, Liu Yu's handsome face, with his beard standing on end,
Displayed in front of everyone.
The guests all stood up and were about to salute Liu Yu. Liu Yu smiled and waved his hand to stop everyone: "Everyone, today is Liu Changshi's family dinner. It is not a formal official occasion, so there is no need to be polite."
He said with a smile and looked at Liu Muzhi: "Fat man, I'm an uninvited guest, I'm sorry for disturbing your banquet."
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "I have been wondering when you will show up. But Tao Gong's story is really wonderful. It is not easy for you to endure it for so long."
Liu Yu said with a smile: "Originally I wanted to continue listening, but when I finally heard that Your Majesty was in danger, I couldn't control it. If it were me, I would definitely guard His Majesty's side directly, and with Tao Gong's ability
, when you could instigate the guards around the Queen to rebel, why are you so careless about the guards around His Majesty?"
Tao Yuanming calmly saluted Liu Yu: "I have admired Liu Zhenjun for a long time, and I am very scared to see him today. However, I still have to respond to your question. Huan Zhen is not Huan Xuan. After he captured Jiangling, he went to war non-stop.
He was completely unable to manage the affairs of the city. His troops were insufficient and he took all the main forces away, leaving only some stragglers newly recruited by Bian Fanzhi and others in the city."
"Fu Hongzhi is already considered the most reliable general, and he once served as a guard for His Majesty, so letting him lead the troops and stay in the guard palace seems to be the best choice. I was indeed careless. I did not expect that Fu Hongzhi would
I have already turned to the court. But now that I think about it, I am really afraid that His Majesty was undefended during that time. Even if Fu Hongzhi and others escaped, if some stragglers or bandits came in to rob and harm Your Majesty, then I would
He is truly a sinner through the ages.”
Liu Yu nodded: "Actually, if Tao Gong had taken Mao Xiuzhi to His Majesty first, and then sent a signal for Liu Guanjun to attack the city, there would not have been such a time difference. However, you endured the humiliation and stayed undercover beside Huan Xuan.
In the end, you rescued your majesty and the queen and made a great contribution. I will definitely report it to the court and reward you for your great contribution."
Tao Yuanming smiled and shook his head: "Tao did these things just to fulfill his duty as a citizen of the Jin Dynasty. He didn't want any reward. If Liu Zhenjun really wants to give it, Tao has a merciless request."
Liu Yu softly said "Oh": "Whatever Tao Gong wants, but it doesn't matter, if it complies with the regulations of the court, I will definitely consider it."
Tao Yuanming formally saluted Liu Yu: "I hope to join the shogunate of General Zhenjun, serve Liu Zhenjun, and do my part for the court. As for the position, Liu Zhenjun will give it to him, even if it is to be a writing officer
Tao, a civil servant who wrote military orders in Chinese, is also satisfied."
