Liu Muzhi said calmly: "I have every reason to believe that even if you are not from the Tiandao League, you will still be the head of a group or organization. Otherwise, someone like Luo Longsheng, who has been in the military for more than twenty years, will
A veteran general will not serve you just because he is a member of the same clan. You put him in Yu Yue's private army just to take advantage of the opportunity to control an army of your own through the Yu family's manpower and material resources."
Tao Yuanming said calmly: "I admit this, I really want to lay eggs by borrowing chickens. In these days, only by having soldiers in hand can we control a party, and what we say counts. Back then, my ancestor Kan Gong, if he didn't have a hundred thousand soldiers in his hands,
, how can I control Jingzhou and be so powerful in the world? I might as well open the skylight to you and tell the truth. You said I have any organization or group. Yes, I do, but it is not the Tiandao Alliance, nor is it the Black Hand Qiankun.
I want to restore the glory of my ancestors, you know."
Liu Muzhi frowned: "Do you want to be the second Tao Kan? Or do you want to follow Huan Wen's example of separatist rule of Jingzhou, and then join Tu Jiankang in the future?"
Tao Yuanming shook his head: "I am not a soldier, and I have no interest in getting a big position. But I studied hard for half a year and learned a lot. The world thinks I am a famous person, but I don't know that it is a big deal that a famous person cannot restore the honor of his ancestors.
What a painful thing, I just want to be the governor of Jingzhou and achieve the achievements of my ancestors, so that I can be satisfied and meet Duke Kan under the Nine Springs."
Liu Muzhi curled up his lips and said, "As a scholar who doesn't know anything about military affairs, if you become the governor of Jingzhou, aren't you afraid of ending up like Yin Zhongkan?"
Tao Yuanming laughed: "Although Yin Zhongkan is a scholar, there is no problem in being the governor of Jingzhou. The only mistake is that he met Huan Xuan and the Huan family who also wanted to revive the family tradition.
He would not be allowed to get involved in Jingzhou. In addition, Yin Zhongkan did not have his own army, so he was very wary of Yang Quanqi, and even deceived this ally, which would lead to failure in the end. In order not to follow his old path, the first thing I did was
You have to have a reliable army, and this time, by accident, my opportunity came."
Liu Muzhi sighed: "You trust Luo Longsheng so much? Aren't you afraid that if he has an army, he will kill you first? These are troubled times, and there is no such thing as trust and benevolence. Luo Longsheng and you really
Are you so determined to stay on the ground? I don’t believe it.”
Tao Yuanming said coldly: "Luo Longsheng is just a warrior. He wants to control the army, not for self-reliance or separatism, but just for glory and wealth. Such a person is easy to deal with. I have to use his ability to command the army first."
, using its ability to collect stragglers from various places, and then taking advantage of the fact that after the defeat of Tianshi Dao, there will be a large number of stragglers in various places, and the official army will also have many opportunities for veterans who have retired and returned home. To organize the army first, the Yu family is also interested in
Jingzhou has ideas and wants to restore the glory of its ancestors, so this gave me an opportunity."
Liu Muzhi sneered: "Aren't you afraid that I will tell Yu Yue what you said? Then all your plans will be gone. Although Yu Yue is not very capable, he is not stupid. This kind of doing things for others will be gone."
He won't do anything about the wedding dress. Moreover, if Luo Longsheng is like you said and only wants glory and wealth, then he can cooperate with Yu Yue and use the Yu family's influence to climb up the ladder without you.
"
Tao Yuanming said calmly: "Then it depends on the overt and covert fight between me and Yu Yue in the future. If I can't defeat him, then Luo Longsheng will leave me and join him, and I have nothing to say. However, the Yu family has left Jingzhou for nearly a hundred years.
, I have no foundation at all. If I want to go to Jingzhou, it is impossible to gain a foothold without my help."
Liu Muzhi curled up his lips: "Jingzhou is too important and the threat to Yangzhou is too great. I can't let Jingzhou fall into the hands of you or Yu Yue. If what you want is to restore the glory of your ancestors and achieve
If you talk about the achievements of Duke Kan, then we can arrange for you a high-ranking official position in the court, even a high-ranking official like Shangshu Pushe, or a high-ranking official like Zhongshu Ling who specializes in drafting documents and edicts."
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "If I wanted this, why would I have left Liu Yu's shogunate back then? No matter how high the official position is, if you have no real power, it will be completely appointed and dismissed at your whim. Even Liu Laozhi knows that if you want to seize
His military power makes him seem to be promoted to Pengcheng's internal history, but in fact it makes him leave the Beifu Army and give up the army in his hands. He will rebel, let alone me? "
"Jingzhou is the foundation of our Tao family. Only when I become the governor of Jingzhou can I truly restore the glory of my ancestors. Only then can I let the nephews of the Tao family hold power in Jingzhou. We discussed this before
Isn't the reason why so many laws of heaven, order, and rules are so quarrelsome and incompatible with each other because you don't agree with them at all? But if I am not seeking welfare and wealth for my Tao family, then what is the purpose of my struggle?
?If I just indulge in the mountains and rivers, wouldn’t it be better for me to retreat to the woods and springs and be an idle person?”
Liu Muzhi curled his lips: "It seems that you just want to occupy Jingzhou, Yuanming. So if Jingzhou's surname is Tao, what's the difference between it and its surname Huan?"
Tao Yuanming said calmly: "I don't know how to fight. Even if I become the governor, I will not threaten you and Liu Yu. Moreover, as long as I become the governor, I will be promoted to a higher rank in the future, and we can make our Tao family
My sons and nephews will also enjoy the glory and wealth. As long as I can be regarded as the descendants of the Tao family, I will be satisfied. Yu Yue and the others do not deserve to have Jingzhou. As long as I am addicted to being the governor of Jingzhou for a few years, sooner or later I will still take it.
Jingzhou, returned to the imperial court, returned to Liu Yu."
Liu Muzhi smiled and waved his hand: "You will spit out the meat that went into your mouth? Yuanming, do you treat me as a three-year-old child?"
Tao Yuanming waved his hand: "These are my sincere words. I want to become the top big family in the world, and this family does not have to be the Wu family. In the future, if Liu Yuzhi is in the world, then this family will be all over the world. With me,
I will be satisfied with my place in Jingzhou Tao Family."
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "It's impossible. What the slave wants is a world where there are no aristocratic families and everyone is a scholar. Your approach is in fundamental conflict with his philosophy."
Tao Yuanming's eyes flashed coldly, and a sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "But my innermost thoughts and ideas do not conflict with yours. Since you want to become Liu Yu's dark side, you specialize in those shameful compromises."
If it's something, then talk to me."
At this point, Tao Yuanming laughed: "Because you don't really believe Liu Yu, but you want your Liu family to become a top family." (End of Chapter)
