Suzaku blinked: "Self-protection? Is it because Tao Yuanming, as a black-robed subordinate, had many shady secret deals with Huan Xuan? For example, helping him deal with Yin Zhongkan, or helping him persuade Liu Tingyun to return? Even,
During the Jianyi campaign in Jingkou, Tao Yuanming seemed to have sided with Huanxuan and wiped out the Liyang and Jiankang groups. People who knew about the incident later, such as Yin Zhongwen, Bian Fanzhi, Cao Jingzhi and others, were all dead. Now they are
No one can prove it."
Xuanwu sneered and said: "And Diao Kui is also an insider. During the Jiankang uprising, Tao Yuanming went to the Huan clan temple when Huan Xuan was assassinated. Liu Yi, the unsatisfactory eldest brother who took the lead, later went to experience it in person.
Yang, commanded Diao Kui and the others to capture Zhuge Changmin, but he had been hiding in the dark. Apart from Huan Xuan, the only ones who knew about him were Bian Fanzhi and Diao Kui, the core advisers and minions, and even Yin Zhongwen.
I didn’t know Tao Yuanming’s background, so I thought he was just a scholar like myself.”
Suzaku sighed: "So, when Tao Yuan knew that Huan Xuan would be defeated, he had to get rid of Huan Xuan and silence him in order to protect himself?"
Xuanwu nodded: "With Liu Yu's emphasis on brotherhood, if he knew that Jiankang's failure along the way was due to Tao Yuanming's betrayal, then ten thousand Tao Yuanming would not be enough for him to kill him. Just look at the last time he killed Wang Yu
Tao Yuanming will definitely die due to the ruthlessness of the whole family. He also knows Liu Yu's character very well, so he must protect himself, because once Huan Xuan falls into the hands of Liu Yi or Liu Yu, he will definitely do all these things to save his life.
Shake it out."
At this point, Xuanwu curled up his lips: "Let's think about the time when Liu Yi sent Mao Xiuzhi and Tao Yuanming to recapture Jiangling City after it was recaptured by Huan Zhen. Bian Fanzhi committed suicide when the city fell. This was the case many times before.
After escaping, Huan Xuan continued to assist Huan Zhen in restoring the country after his death. Is he someone who would give up easily? At that time, Mao Xiuzhi and Tao Yuanming were separated. When they found Bian Fan, he was already dead, and Tao Yuanming was the only one present.
People, I don’t believe there is such a coincidence in this world, the only explanation is..."
Zhuque responded quickly: "Tao Yuanming took advantage of Bian Fanzhi's trust in him and killed Bian Fanzhi himself when he was unprepared. Bian Fanzhi was the number one counselor of Huan Xuan and Huan Zhen. I'm afraid Tao Yuanming did some shameful things in the past.
He also knows about it, so it is not enough for Huan Xuan to die, Bian Fanzhi must also die!"
Qinglong breathed a long sigh of relief: "With this analysis, everything is reasonable. Tao Yuanming must be the subordinate of the black robe, responsible for assisting and wooing Huan Xuan, but in the end, the black robe was reluctant to let Huan Xuan die like this.
He also wanted to protect him and allow Huan Xuan to flee to the Later Qin Dynasty in the north and continue to use his influence to cause trouble in Jingzhou. However, Tao Yuanming did not dare to take this risk. He was afraid that Huan Xuan would turn him in if he fell into the hands of the Beifu army.
So I chose to assassinate Huan Xuan to silence him, but this assassination was blocked and ruined by Hei Pao himself!"
Bai Hu nodded: "That should be it. It was impossible for Hei Pao to fully appoint Tao Yuanming at that time. He was probably secretly monitoring him, just like he secretly monitored Wang Ningzhi when he was in Kuaiji last time. At the critical moment, he took action to save him.
Huan Xuan, but there was no way to send anyone to protect Huan Xuan. Perhaps, Mao Xiuzhi's interception and killing of Huan Xuan on the river would have been Tao Yuanming's back-up move. In short, Huan Xuan died, but Black Robe probably didn't do this either.
Kill or betray Tao Yuanming, because Tao Yuanming was still able to move and kill Bian Fanzhi later. It seems that he also accepted Tao Yuanming's approach and sacrificed the Huan family to protect his subordinate."
Zhuque said coldly: "But why didn't he help Huan Zhen succeed and separate Jingzhou?"
Xuanwu said seriously: "At that time, the power of the Huan family was over. Huan Xuan was the recognized leader of the Jingzhou scholars. Although Huan Zhen was very capable in fighting, he could not stand shoulder to shoulder with Huan Xuan in people's eyes. After Huan Xuan's death, his
Failure is doomed, and victory in a few battles only delays Huan Chu's demise. Now it seems that Black Robe later asked Tao Yuanming to go undercover at Huan Zhen's place, not really to assist Huan Zhen, but to replace it with others!"
Qinglong frowned: "What's the matter? You mean..."
Bai Hu smiled and said: "Let Huan Zhen win several battles in a row and build up his momentum. Now let Liu Yi take action to seize Jiangling and kill Huan Zhen. In this way, Liu Yi will become the first contributor to the Western Expedition. Before,
It was even more possible for He Wuji to suffer a huge defeat, and Liu Daogui was also defeated. In this way, the three generals went out to fight, lost two, and Liu Yi ended the battle, which showed that his skill was beyond the sky. The decisive hand in this battle was Tao Yuanming.
Mao Xiu successfully attacked Jiangling in the night and took away Huan Zhen's lair. With this great success, Tao Yuanming can logically sell Liu Yi a huge favor and switch his family from Huan Xuan."
Zhuque asked doubtfully: "Your analysis makes sense, but if so, why didn't Tao Yuanming serve under Liu Yi? I remember that he refused to serve under Liu Yi at that time, and instead went to join the army under Liu Yu.
I am on an envoy to Later Qin."
Bai Hu sneered: "This is the brilliance of Tao Yuanming and Heipao. If they work directly under Liu Yi, these previous doubts will attract the attention of Liu Yu and Liu Muzhi, but if they show that they are not seeking fame and wealth, they will not cooperate with them.
To be with Liu Yi, not even with Liu Yu, is to retreat in order to advance, showing his personality and spiritual independence as a contemporary literary giant. In other words, not taking orders from anyone, including the previous Huan Xuan, then
It’s hard to put suspicion on him.”
Qinglong shook his head: "I'm afraid that's not necessarily the case. Now Liu Yu and Liu Muzhi are very suspicious of this person, and the six counties in Jiangbei have repeatedly incited people to immigrate, which also shows that they are related to him."
Bai Hu said sternly: "He went to plead for the people openly like this, so even if he was suspected, he couldn't get the handle, because before he left Liu Yu, he just wanted to provoke a war on the pretext that Liu Yu was not sympathizing with the people because of his own achievements.
Therefore, it is only reasonable for him to do this. If he does not incite it, it will appear that he has a guilty conscience."
Zhuque said solemnly: "It seems that the raid on Jiangbei this time and the removal of the beacon towers and cottages on the front line must have something to do with Heipao and Tao Yuanming, but I don't understand that Heipao has been defeated in the north.
Now we should protect Southern Yan, so why provoke the Jin Dynasty over this matter and lead Liu Yu to the Northern Expedition?"
Xuanwu sighed: "This is what we can't see through the most. From beginning to end, we don't know what this black robe wants. Now all his actions seem to indicate that he does not seek the power of a country, but
He wants to bring chaos to the whole world, start wars everywhere, and make the people miserable. This seems to be his purpose, and this time, it is the same!"
