Liu Yu pondered for a while and said: "With Xianzhi and Mrs. Xie, there will be nothing to do in Jiankang City. Moreover, even if Liu Xile leaves Jiankang, he will leave Meng Chang in charge. This man is both civilized and military.
Can control the overall situation.”
Liu Muzhi curled up his lips: "In the past, we could completely trust Madam, but this time, Heipao said that Madam cooperated with him to deceive Suzaku. Can you still trust her?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "What Heipao said may not be the truth. In order to get away, he tried every means to sow a wedge between us and interfere with our emotions. Because Miaoyin took the initiative to ask him about this matter, so he said those things.
In fact, those are just suspicions and worries that Miaoyin wanted to find someone to confirm, and Black Robe saw through this."
"If Madam has really cooperated with him, she will definitely harm me over the years. But in fact, she has been very caring and supportive of me over the years. Therefore, I don't believe what Heipao said. In fact, that day he had been
To exploit and find our flaws and loopholes, for me, it’s Murong Lan, for Miaoyin, it’s Mrs. Xie, and for you, it’s Kuang Zhi.”
Liu Muzhi sighed: "What you said makes some sense, but I still feel that the authenticity of his words cannot be ruled out. After all, Madam is standing on the standpoint of a noble family and has conflicts with you. After you took power in these years, she
I gradually delegate power and retreat behind the scenes. I don’t want to conflict with you openly. At least I don’t support your idea of equality for all living beings. You still have to have a clear understanding of this. Once you really give up your rear,
Leave it to Madam, then she may join forces with Xile to restore the former aristocratic family world."
Liu Yu nodded: "I must be more pragmatic. If we want to rely on the army to conquer the world, sweep across the north, and confront the Tiandao Alliance, we can no longer be enemies of the aristocratic family at the same time. Leave the rear to Xi Le. There is also such a thing
Consider that if I am in the rear and control the government, Liu Xile, who is unwilling to be subordinate to me, will join forces with the powerful family that has lost its power and become a formidable enemy that I cannot destroy openly. But if I give up Wudi in the south of the Yangtze River, the senior family members will
Instead, the family will have a conflict with Xile, because Xile does not want to be suppressed and controlled by the high-sect families again. This time, I will let someone go back, on the one hand, to report the battle situation ahead, and on the other hand, also
Add certain variables to the rear.”
Liu Muzhi's expression changed: "Do you want to put Yu Yue back?"
Liu Yu laughed: "It is this Yu Gong who followed us out this time. He has also had enough military achievements. In the evaluation just now, he was awarded a second-class meritorious service, which is enough for the Yu family to feel proud. Next, they besieged Guangzhou.
It is not something that happens overnight, and he is not willing to suffer hardships outside for a long time. In the name of reporting victory to the court, it is a good choice for him to return to Jiankang. With his meritorious service, he is also qualified to return to the top aristocratic families."
"After coming out this time, it can be seen that he has been doing his best to please Miaoyin. I think this is not just because of Miaoyin's status as queen."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, Yu Yue must want to establish a relationship with the Xie family and become sympathizers, thinking that he can gain more capital against Liu Yi. This time he took the lead in responding to your call and became the leader of a high-class family.
Joining the army as a disciple is also a matter of choosing a side between you and Liu Yi. After all, Liu Yi himself is both talented in both civil and military affairs, and his ally Meng Chang is even more talented in both literary and political affairs. For these old aristocratic families, they constitute a
A huge threat, even greater than you."
"Yu Yue himself has no chance of reconciliation with Liu Xile because of the humiliation of burning goose. If he just sits back and watches Liu Yi come to power, it is possible that the entire Yu family will be exterminated, so I can only bet on your side. This time it can be considered
We have made life-long friendships on the battlefield and have gained enough military exploits. If I go back now and help you take the opportunity to publicize the benefits of joining the army, maybe it will attract a new group of children from aristocratic families to continue to join the army. Of course, they
You won’t come empty-handed, you will definitely bring food, grass, and villagers, as they can be used as fresh troops to replace our wounded soldiers.”
Liu Yu said seriously: "With our current situation, it is unrealistic to rely only on tens of thousands of brothers to conquer the world. For a period of time, we will still have to borrow manpower, food and grass from the south, but this land of Qingzhou will still be our foundation in the future.
It cannot be given to high-ranking families in Jiankang City as before, but to meritorious soldiers. Moreover, the interests of local powerful people must also be taken into consideration. Han people with big surnames like Pilu Daoxiu who take the initiative to vote must be given to
They are good enough."
"So after all the calculations, I am afraid that the land left to the aristocratic families in Jiankang City can only be Jiangbei. In the past, they were afraid that the six counties in Jiangbei were unsafe and did not dare to fully operate here. But now if Nanyan is wiped out
, then Jiangbei will become a stable hinterland. High-ranking families who could not come here will rush to occupy land and build businesses here. How to allocate and dispose of this land will be a troublesome matter. "
Liu Muzhi curled up his lips and said: "The governor of Northern Xuzhou must be controlled by yourself. Liu Daolian also went out with the army this time, and he has made certain contributions. Let him continue to serve as the internal history of Pengcheng and be responsible for the six provinces of Jiangbei.
County management.”
Liu Yu frowned: "Dao Lian has no talent at all as a state or county magistrate, and he is greedy. He always plunders people's fat wherever he goes. If you hadn't persuaded me to use the Liu family as an official, I would have dismissed him long ago.
Well, even my mother has heard a lot of this kind of news, saying that if she continues to indulge Tao Lian and bring trouble to the people, I am afraid that my father will not be able to live in peace even if he knows better. It would be better for you to persuade me to promote him.
Isn’t it enough that he ruined my reputation?”
Liu Muzhi said calmly: "Although Dao Lian is greedy for money, he only has a small amount of money and has no power ambitions. Where he is, he mostly plunders the property of powerful landlords and does not abuse ordinary people very much. In my opinion,
Come on, this is a small evil, not a big one. You have a good brother, Daofu, but he is only one person and has to bear the heavy responsibility of guarding Jingzhou. Who else can you leave to Jiangbei?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "What if it's not from my Liu family, but from my natal family, the Zhao family and the Xiao family?"
Liu Muzhi frowned: "Brothers fighting tigers, father and son soldiers, now it is you, Liu Jinu, who wants to establish your own power. Don't underestimate the wife clan and mother clan. If you go by this statement, are you a member of the Murong clan?
Are you going to use it to entrust me with important tasks?"
Liu Yu did not answer and fell into silence. Liu Muzhi's voice came slowly: "Moreover, the six counties in Jiangbei are of special significance. Pengcheng is the place where your Liu family originated, and it is also the place where the Han Dynasty established its four hundred years of history.
The Land of Longxing, Emperor Gaozu, since you want to realize your great ambition and clarify the world, then you cannot entrust this Land of Longxing to others, remember!"
