Wang Hua was a little surprised: "Is Marshal Liu really such a person? I only know that he is a ruthless general with great military exploits and countless murders. How can he be so kind and righteous?"
Zhang Shao laughed loudly: "Ziling, you don't know something. Our Marshal Liu joined the army not to gain fame and wealth, but to save the world, and to save all the Han people who were enslaved and oppressed by the Hu people.
This original intention has always been maintained. When suppressing the Tianshi Dao rebellion, as you said, Liu Laozhi's troops also committed rape, robbery, and committed all kinds of evil, but only Marshal Liu led his own army with more than a thousand troops.
Standing alone in Juzhang, Haiyan, and fighting alone. The reason why my family made up their mind to follow Marshal Liu as a nobleman is because they believe that in this troubled world, Marshal Liu is the only one who truly loves the people."
Wang Hua murmured: "I have heard a lot of news, some of which are completely opposite. Some people praise Marshal Liu to the sky, while others dismiss him. I don't know who to believe."
Wang Hong smiled and patted Wang Hua on the shoulder: "Brother, it doesn't matter what others say. What matters is what this person does. At least Marshal Liu is kind to you. When Wang Mi wrote to Marshal Liu, he pardoned you.
What your father did back then allowed you to inherit the title, and now he has recruited you to serve as an official, what else are you dissatisfied with?"
Wang Hua sighed: "To be honest, what my late father did back then was wrong, but after all, he is my father and a subordinate of Liu Laozhi. He killed my brother and sister, and also let my late father
He disappeared and was later pronounced dead. No matter how good a man Liu Dashuai was, he was also Liu Laozhi's subordinate back then. I couldn't possibly have no grudges. To be honest, I have been staying at home in the name of mourning for these years and refused to work.
I also don’t want to work for Marshal Liu right now.”
Zhang Shao smiled and said: "But Wang Mi, who has been very kind to you, is your cousin. He is also willing to serve Liu Marshal, but he is following his lead."
Wang Hua shook his head: "Although my cousin is very kind to me, he is a smooth person. No matter who is in charge of policy, he will flatter and work for him. When Wang Guobao was in power, he also flattered him. Later, Sima Daozi
He was also a close friend when he was in power, and later when Huan Xuan usurped the throne, he was the first to seize the jade seal for Huan Xuan and offer it to him. In the end, Marshal Liu succeeded in establishing righteousness, and he was the first to surrender. Such a person cannot be said to have any influence on me.
Well, I will follow him."
Zhang Shao put away his smile, nodded and said: "Ziling, you really don't take the ordinary path. You think differently from most people in the world, and you have the moral integrity that a scholar should have. However, this time you
Why come to Jiankang?"
Wang Hua said confidently: "Because I think, although I don't necessarily need Marshal Liu to serve, after all, I have been favored by the country. I am a son of an aristocratic family and a subject of the Jin Dynasty. How can I sit back and watch when the country is in trouble? Marshal Liu doesn't care whether it is or not.
As rumored, after all, he eliminated the traitor Huan Xuan who usurped the throne and restored the Jin Dynasty. The ancestors of my Wang family were kings and horses who shared the world. My family has a share in this Jin Dynasty. Now I see that the Jin Dynasty is in trouble.
, of course I have to find a way out and do my best to serve Dajin."
Wang Hong said with a smile: "This is the attitude and responsibility that we, the descendants of the Wang family, should have. Compared with those guys who want to take advantage of the national crisis to fight for power or gain, or who are greedy for life and fear of death when a catastrophe is imminent, we are worthy of being the pillars of the country.
Brother, I am very optimistic about you. By the way, what official position do you have now that you are serving as an official?"
Wang Hua's face turned slightly red: "I am still white now. I just received an order to become an official. I am asked to report to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and wait for the assignment of positions."
Wang Hong smiled and said: "Ziling, you are very talented. The analysis just now is clear and concise. It is a sign of real talent and learning. I believe you will be able to make a difference at this time. Don't worry, I will do my best."
I can recommend you in any way I can."
Zhang Shao waved his hand: "You kid, stop bragging here. Although you yourself were not held accountable for losing land in Jiangzhou and engaged in military law, you are still at home in vain. How can you recommend others? I will recommend it instead.
Pretty much."
Wang Hong curled up his lips: "Yesterday when we were drinking, you said that you would recommend me to work in the shogunate of the marshal. Don't just talk without practicing. This time, bring Ziling with you. We will definitely show our strength.
Let me show you all my abilities. We, the children of aristocratic families, are not just talkers without practice."
At this point, Wang Hong looked a little lonely and sighed softly: "Speaking of which, last time I was still afraid of death and ran away before the battle. I let the commander down. This time, I don't know if he will
Give me another chance, but Zi Ling, you are different, I think the commander-in-chief will be very optimistic about people like you."
Wang Hua smiled slightly: "From the handling of this matter, I have a new understanding of Marshal Liu. Now I am more and more convinced that it is the right decision to become an official and serve the country this time."
Zhang Shao's eyes narrowed slightly: "How do you say this? I want to hear it."
Wang Hua said calmly: "I thought about it carefully just now, and even we can analyze that this matter is probably related to the two young masters of Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi. How could he not think of it? But let's stop here.
I'm afraid it's not because Marshal Liu didn't want to offend several aristocratic families at this time. You must know that in order to rectify military discipline, he even killed his long-time comrade Wei Shunzhi in accordance with military law. At this time, if someone wants to cause division and establish a mountain top, then no matter who it is,
You can’t let it go.”
"However, the backgrounds of Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi are not simple. They are allies of another general, Liu Yi. Meng Chang died inexplicably, and Liu Yi escaped alone, but he was able to quickly raise an army.
, at this time, it was the time when the two generals worked together to protect Jiankang. Marshal Liu also gave Liu Yi full trust and gave him half of Jiankang to defend. At this time, if Meng Chang and Liu Tingyun successively
If he is dead, and if Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi are attacked again, it is inevitable that Liu Yi will not have any ideas. Once there is discord among the generals, this city will probably be difficult to defend."
Wang Hong said with a smile: "Your idea is very reasonable. The main role of aristocratic families in defending the city is to donate materials and dispatch manpower such as servants and shop assistants. In the end, the battle depends on the army and the soldiers. Liu Yiyi
When he came back, not only did he not be held accountable for the crime of defeat, but he was reinstated and given important tasks. This shows that our Marshal Liu is very pragmatic and does not just talk about ideal justice. So why did he want to do this after the execution this time?
We are here, Ziling, what do you think?"
