Chapter 606
Several people were stunned for a moment and looked at each other.
Everyone has always regarded the recovery of Liaodong as their lifelong ambition. Now that victory is in sight, they have really not thought about what will happen next.
Huangfu Mu raised his finger and wavered and said: "Although Liaodong was captured by the Beiliang Army and Liaodong martyrs, in the final analysis, Beiliang is also under the jurisdiction of the imperial court and is controlled by the court. In other words, the regained land in Liaodong
It should also be controlled by the imperial court."
Several people nodded silently, with a hint of unwillingness flashing in their eyes.
Huangfu Mu suddenly became more serious: "I would like to ask a few of you here whether the people of Liaodong are willing to be governed by officials sent by the court in the future? Or would you rather have the Marquis of Beiliang govern Liaodong?"
Zuoqiu, who was sitting next to him, suddenly had a cold look in his eyes, and said with some sullenness: "Of course it is up to the Marquis to rule. Why do those losers in the court have dictating to us in Liaodong?"
"That's right!" Yao Qingfeng also patted the table and said: "In terms of fighting, the imperial court did not send a single soldier. The troops were sent by the Marquis of Beiliang who braved the disdain of the world. In terms of money and food, except for the Xue family's funding of food and grass in Liaodong,
Besides, I have never seen a copper coin again. Now that I have won the battle, is it possible for those officials to enjoy their gains?"
Yao Qingfeng and Zuoqiu were both people who had always lived in Liaodong, and had never paid much attention to the so-called Great Zhou Dynasty.
On the other hand, Shen Xiufu, who had been serving as an official in the court, fell into silence and lowered his head slightly.
Huangfu Mu folded his hands and quietly waited for Shen Xiufu's attitude.
Yao Qingfeng looked a little anxious and shouted softly: "Master Shen, please say something. Is it possible that you want to hand over Liaodong to those corrupt officials? Don't forget, you were always in the government back then.
What situation did you face when you begged the imperial court to send troops? Who responded to you!"
Yao Qingfeng, who had always been elegant, looked angry at this moment.
"well."
Shen Xiufu sighed, his back seemed a little more stooped, and he said silently: "I definitely hope that Liaodong will be governed by Lord Chenhou."
Yao Qingfeng's face looked a little better when he said these words, but Shen Xiufu's next words made his face look ugly instantly.
"But you have to think about it. The Marquis was granted the title of second-class marquis, led the military governor of Beiliang Road, and had 200,000 brave and capable frontier soldiers. He was in a high and powerful position. The Shangguan family, the Yuwen family, and the Zhao family all seemed to be
You greet the Marquis with a smile, but who doesn’t guard against the Marquis behind his back?
When the Shangguan family and the Queen Mother supported the Marquis to ascend to the throne, it was to fight against the Yuwen family and buy time for the Shangguan family to develop their strength. Now Shangguan Tailei of Nanjiang Road also has great military exploits, and the Shangguan family has already established itself, so why should the Queen Mother still
Support Mr. Hou?
Now that there is a great victory in Liaodong, why would Liaodong be placed under the jurisdiction of the Marquis? Do you think it is possible? The land of seven border states has both powerful soldiers and granaries. If you were sitting on the dragon's throne, would you let this happen?
A powerful official appears in the court?"
Shen Xiufu's questioning voices echoed throughout the room, analyzing the situation clearly.
The eyes of Yao Qingfeng and Zuoqiu, who had been a little impulsive just now, suddenly dimmed, and they realized that this was an impossible thing.
Zuoqiu held his head with one hand, gritted his teeth and stood up. Before he could speak, he was blocked by Shen Xiufu.
"Why, General Zuo wants to ignore the imperial order and start a rebellion when pressed?" Shen Xiufu hit the nail on the head and expressed what Zuo Qiu was thinking.
The word rebellion echoed in the room for a long time.
Zuoqiu nodded helplessly, this old man was really smart.
Shen Xiufu stretched out his hand, pointed to the far north and shouted: "General Zuo, Liaodong has been suffering for fifty years! It has not yet recuperated and restored the people's strength. Beiliang Road was even fought on two sides, with no less than one hundred thousand soldiers killed in the battle. The war had just stopped. At this time
Can we fight again?"
Zuoqiu sat back with a blush on his face. As a general, he knew that he could not afford to fight at this time.
Yao Qingfeng and Zuoqiu's expressions became even uglier, and they couldn't go any further together?
"Hahaha!" Huangfu Mu suddenly laughed: "Master Shen is indeed a great talent. His analysis of the situation is clear at a glance. I admire you!"
Shen Xiufu looked at Huangfu Mu in astonishment. This was not a good thing. Why was he still laughing?
He stared blankly at Huangfu Mu and Xue Leihan, who had been smiling without saying a word, then suddenly realized and exclaimed: "Mr. Huangfu, is there any way?"
Yao Qingfeng and Zuoqiu also looked up in shock, with a little hope in their eyes.
Huangfu Mu unhurriedly picked up the tea cup next to the table and took a sip, and asked lightly: "Fifty years ago, Liaodong was lost in the hands of the late emperor Zhou Hui. Three years later, the late emperor passed away. Does Master Shen still remember?
A last edict left by Emperor Hui of the Zhou Dynasty before his death?"
Shen Xiufu was stunned for a moment, his mind was spinning rapidly, and he began to search for relevant information deep in his memory.
Yao Qingfeng and Zuoqiu were at a loss as to why. After all, Shen Xiufu had been an official in the court for many years and knew much more secrets than they did.
Finally, Shen Xiufu remembered this matter and said with some hesitation: "The late emperor seems to have left an edict, saying that whoever recovers Liaodong can be crowned king?"
"That's right!"
Shen Xiufu was actually not sure whether the news was true or false, but Huangfu Mu was older and was in charge of Wentiansi, so he must have collected accurate information to be so sure.
Over the years, the court has been busy with party disputes. Who still remembers the imperial edict?
Huangfu Mu said in a deep voice: "Since the late emperor has a posthumous edict, it is feasible for the Marquis to just make him the king and then bring the four states of Liaodong into his jurisdiction!"
Shen Xiufu hesitated and said: "There has not been a king with a different surname in our dynasty for hundreds of years. I'm afraid?"
Huangfu Mu smiled softly: "That's why I came here to ask for your help."
Several people looked at each other and said in unison: "Sir, please speak clearly!"
Huangfu Mu slowly stood up and said: "The incident of the imperial edict is unquestionable and has been recorded by all major families. I have secretly arranged for people to go to the capital. As soon as the news of Liaodong's success arrives, the incident of the imperial edict will spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital.
And what I want you to do is to use your influence in the court and in Liaodong to create momentum and inspire people's hearts! The people of Liaodong can write these few Wanmin books, please be the vassal vassal of the Marquis of Beiliang!
Master Shen and Master Yao, you two have enough reputation among the literati in Liaodong, and the military will have no problem. You are all men who have followed the marquis through life and death. What do you think?"
Huangfu Mu looked at the group of people with a smile, and Xue Leihan also said softly: "My Xue family will also lend a helping hand!"
"What a good idea." Shen Xiufu sighed, and then asked with some inexplicable meaning: "Sir, I would like to ask, is this the Marquis's idea or is it?"
Huangfu Mu smiled slightly: "The Marquis is busy with the war, it's time for us people to do something for the Marquis."
Shen Xiufu understood instantly and laughed: "Okay! This matter is my responsibility!"
"Count me in!" Yao Qingfeng stood up straight away.
"And me!" Zuoqiu nodded in response.
"Haha, I wish us success in advance!" Huangfu Mu laughed.
Xue Leihan's eyes showed a trace of relief, this incident was planned by him and Huangfu Mu.
Chapter completed!
