Chapter 271 The Xie family is under great pressure

In the evening, on the outskirts of Guangling City, there is an unknown hill.

Liu Yu and Liu Muzhi stood side by side, looking at the sinking sun. Their expressions were solemn, each with their own thoughts.

Ever since Liu Muzhi enlightened everyone at the Commander's Mansion, it was already afternoon. Liu Yi was still in a bad mood, so he made an excuse to leave. He Wuji followed him closely, probably to borrow some wine from a tavern.

Chou left, and the other people also dispersed, wandering around the city in groups of two or three. After all, the army will set off tomorrow. I don’t know if I can come back from this expedition. Drinking, sleeping with prostitutes, etc.

Soldiers also need to seize the last moment to relax themselves completely.

Liu Yu and Liu Muzhi walked out together. The two of them were silent all the way. Until here, there was no one around. Liu Yu knew that the fat man had something to say to him today.

Sure enough, Liu Muzhi sighed softly: "The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it is almost dusk. When the sun rises tomorrow, we should be on the way to attack. Ji Nu, you are in the Tiger Army and I am in the Chinese Army.

I'm afraid we won't have a chance to see each other again, so I have something to say to you."

Liu Yu curled his lips: "Is this necessary? We just talked about it yesterday. Do you have any new understanding of the Xie family?"

Liu Muzhi shook his head: "What I'm talking about today is not the Xie family and Xuan Shuai, but Liu Yi and other aristocratic families."

Liu Yu frowned: "I would like to hear the details."

Liu Muzhi said seriously: "Let's talk about other aristocratic families first. You have also seen the situation. It is inevitable that the Xie family and the Wang family will turn against each other. Starting from the Jingkou Diao brothers, no, it should be said that the emperor wants to rule personally.

This conflict has existed since the power was taken back. The King of Kuaiji wants to use the Wang family to deal with the Xie family, and the Wang family also hopes to get back the power in the hands of the Xie family in the process. This is the core of the dispute between the two sides."

Liu Yu curled his lips disdainfully: "Does the Wang family have this ability? There is no talent and no thought of worrying about the country. I think even the Holy One will not watch the country collapse in order to regain power, especially in this big country.

When the enemy is in front of you."

Liu Muzhi sighed: "The Wang family is smarter than you think. Do you think Wang Chen really has aristocratic habits? In fact, he also saw the Xie family's intentions, so he just exposed it in public."

Liu Yu's heart stirred: "You mean, Wang Chen wants to make public the Xie family's plan to establish power in the army and use Beifu soldiers as their own family's private soldiers?"

Liu Muzhi nodded: "Well, Wang Chen is still very talented. He made such an attack at the Wuyi Club. In fact, he forced the Xie family to express their position. He wanted to continue to maintain his status as a noble family and associate with these high-ranking nobles.

, I still want to make a new start and support low-level scholars like you and me to come forward. In fact, these words have awakened many aristocratic families. They have realized that the Wang family is the high-ranking family that stands with them, and the Xie family has already intended to

People like you are selected from low-level scholars to be promoted to a new aristocratic family. This is something they cannot bear."

Liu Yu's expression changed: "So, the Xie family is facing a lot of pressure now?"

Liu Muzhi sighed: "Actually, someone came last night, but it was not Yu Yue, but Huan Yi. He went directly to see Xuan Shuai and expressed his attitude to him, that is, the upper echelons of the Jin Dynasty

Power still cannot come from established families like them."

Liu Yu frowned: "Although Huan Yi and Huan Xuan's family have five branches, and are a distant branch of the Huan family of Qiao State, he has a high and powerful position. He is the governor of Yuzhou, the general of Xizhonglang, and has jurisdiction over the Henan and Huainan regions.

There are tens of thousands of elite soldiers in the twelve counties. It can be said that he is an important figure in the Jin Dynasty. Because of his special status, he was accepted by Huan Chong of Jingzhou and Xie Xianggong of the central government at the same time. He was equivalent to neutralizing the conflict between the two major vassals of Jingzhou and Yang.

A key figure. If he comes here to express his opinion, it means the matter is very serious."

Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, what happened yesterday was that a huge boulder was dropped on the wealthy family in Jiankang City, causing thousands of waves. I heard that Huan Xuan was also walking around in Jiankang,

The major sects who are dissatisfied with the Xie family are uniting together to prepare to stand on the side of the Wang family and confront the Xie family. Huan Yi is here for this purpose. He hopes that during the Northern Expedition, he will put national affairs first and not let this kind of internal strife delay the war.

.”

Liu Yu sighed: "No wonder Commander Xuan is not here today. It turns out that he didn't miss Yu Yue on purpose, but because he wanted to avoid the big families who came to put pressure on him."

Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Now that Mr. Xianggong has taken all the pressure off, these people still dare not challenge Mr. Xianggong, and as long as Commander Xuan avoids seeing him, there is nothing they can do. However, your wonderful voice is

Being taken back by his mother, I guess there may be some changes in your marriage."

Liu Yu's expression changed: "How could this be? Miaoyin and I are obviously in love, why do these fights between aristocratic families affect our relationship?!"

Liu Muzhi put away his smile and said seriously: "Marriage between aristocratic families is itself a political method. If the Xie family wants to promote you, win over you, and marry you with a wonderful voice, Liu Yu will promote you to a high-ranking family in the future."

, this is what these old aristocratic families are firmly opposed to. After all, if you have not made any achievements now, others will say that the Xie family is insisting on expelling you."

Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "So, I can only stop others by making achievements in the Northern Expedition?"

Liu Muzhi nodded: "This seems to be the case in the near future. But as a slave, as I just told Liu Yi and the others, whether a person can get ahead or not ultimately depends on himself. The Xie family's treatment of you is only temporary.

Help. When you become famous in the army and everyone in the Beifu Army, from commander to soldier, is in awe of you, you won’t need to borrow the power of the Xie family at all. At that time, it will be you who decides the Xie family

and the fate of other families!”

Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "But this will take at least several decades of hard work. Can I afford to wait for my wonderful voice?"

Liu Muzhi sighed: "The future of you and Miaoyin depends on your achievements and the relationship between the Xie family and other aristocratic families. It's a bit early to say this now. Fight this battle well and make great contributions."

.Only in this way can you marry the girl you love."

Liu Yu sighed: "I don't want to think about this anymore. The more I think about it, the more annoying I am. This time we go on an expedition, these aristocratic families will not cause trouble behind us. What if they make trouble in the rear and withhold military rations, etc., then how can we fight in the front?"

Liu Muzhi said sternly: "Your Excellency has come back and returned to Jiankang to take charge, just to stabilize the overall situation in the rear and prevent others from causing trouble. However, if things don't go well on our front line, he will be under great pressure.

Therefore, Ji Nu, this battle must be fought well and decided quickly, otherwise things may change if it is too late.”

Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "This is a matter decided by the generals. I can only do my best on the battlefield. By the way, what do you want to say about Liu Yi?"
