As Gao Yan listened to Hu Luguang's words, his expression became more and more serious. There was a hint of excitement in his concentration, and he even clenched his fists slightly. When Hu Luguang finished speaking, he raised his tambourine
Raise your hands.
"As expected of Brother Mingyue, he is really ambitious and will never disappoint you! I haven't heard such a majestic voice for a long time."
Gao Yan clapped his hands and sighed: "The world today cannot be called governance, but there are many people in the country who are obsessed with old achievements, indulge in pleasure, and no longer have grand ambitions.
, not paying attention to the serious troubles of the inner circle, it really makes the knowledgeable people worried and unable to calm down!"
Speaking of this, Gao Yan also had a helpless look on his face. What he said was not only the second generation of nobles who were obsessed with extravagance and enjoyment, but also his elder brother Gao Yang and even junior high school students.
This kind of drunkenness and endless enjoyment is even the result of a kind of ups and downs.
In the past few years, the imperial court has made no achievements in external affairs. His brother Gao Yang has also gone against the style of working hard in governance in the early years, especially in the military. Although this has saved him from the consumption of military force, the national strength recovered from recuperation has not really accumulated. Hebei Earth Years
There is plenty of money, but the price of grain in Yedu has been rising year after year. The price of a seat in the family of the rich and powerful can reach ten thousand yuan, but the poor and lowly people have no clothes to cover their bodies and no food to eat.
If it is just that the politics in the country are not clear enough and there is imbalance and collapse at the top and bottom, they still have the opportunity to make corrections and adjustments based on their deep foundation in Northern Qi.
However, compared to their inaction, the Western Wei Dynasty, its old enemy to the west, has been developing very rapidly in recent years. It is said that its country recruited Xia soldiers in large numbers, and set up many rewards and rewards, so that everyone was happy to fight, and the country was greatly victorious.
Once upon a time.
Although the two sides had stopped fighting in Heluo in the sixth year of Tianbao, there had never been a large-scale war confrontation between them. Gao Yan did not know how far the Western Wei's national power had developed. But for them, the morale of the Northern Qi Dynasty was rapidly declining.
, but he felt it so deeply that he was very excited to hear Hu Luguang's plan to take the initiative and try to attack his opponent.
When Hu Luguang heard that King Changshan agreed with his plan, he immediately stood up and bowed to the side of the banquet. He said in a deep voice: "I am not a servant of high wisdom in the world. My plan is to bring prestige to the country and vow to avenge my family. Fortunately, I am here."
If you can be appreciated by your Majesty, and if you are helped by your Majesty to take up this position, you will be driven bravely and do your best to live up to your responsibilities!"
After Gao Yan heard this, he quickly stood up and helped Hu Luguang up. At the same time, he sighed: "The reason why the country sets up various prominent positions is so that the virtuous, loyal and brave people can fit into their positions and serve the country! Mingyue
Brother, you are a good general and talented person who is well-known in both the government and the public, and you also have such a sincere feeling of serving the country and killing thieves. It is also an honor for me to recommend a good person to the court, so why dare you say that you are driven by selfish motives?"
After both parties expressed their feelings, they also cherished each other. Hu Luguang then further elaborated on his series of strategies to guard Jinzhou and advance to Fenjiang.
In his view, the imperial court was too obsessed with Heluo, Huainan and other places in the past, which was simply a wrong idea that put the cart before the horse.
It is not that the wars between Heluo and Heluo did not result in brilliant victories in the past, even in this war in the sixth year of Tianbao, they also achieved a very good record in the early stage.
However, since Heluo was blocked by Xiaohan further west, it was difficult for the army to advance and retreat calmly. Even if it passed the Xiaohan Mountain Road, there was still the obstacle of Tongguan further forward, making it very difficult to continue to expand the results of the battle.
As for Huainan Jiangdong, it goes without saying. The island barbarian barbaric land is difficult to conquer. The rewards obtained after conquering are also limited. It is nothing more than increasing the power of the Han'er in the country, but it has no significant impact on the overall national strength. If we are promoted, can we still expect to mobilize the Jianghuai barbarians to invade Guanzhong?
The Western Wei regime in Guanzhong is their real irreconcilable opponent to Northern Qi. The sooner they attack, the easier it will be to kill this old enemy. The longer it takes, the more disadvantageous it will be for Northern Qi. Even now it is a little late, but take action immediately. It is better than doing nothing and letting the situation continue to develop as it is, which will only get worse.
Gao Yan also quite agrees with Hu Luguang's views. Since he doesn't have much experience in leading troops in combat, it may not be easy to judge if it is a purely tactical issue, but this kind of strategy is already quite strategic. It's still relatively easy to understand.
After a conversation with Hu Luguang, Gao Yan also felt that he had benefited a lot, so when he stood up to leave, he also expressed to Hu Luguang that he would try his best to facilitate this matter later.
After leaving the Prince of Xianyang's residence and returning to his home, Gao Yan was still very excited when he recalled the conversation he had just had with Hu Luguang, so he immediately summoned Wang Xi, a minister of the Prince's Palace, and said: "Today I went to the Prince of Xianyang's residence to visit Hu Lü Guang, because I talked freely with Ming Yue about a few side affairs, and I deeply felt that he was really a man of great strength, and he was definitely not a man who was greedy for glory but had no ambition. Mingyue also asked me to be the governor of Jinzhou, both in public and in private. You should do what you want and don't let this great energy go unused! Please ask the doctor to draft a letter for me and submit it to the court. I will report this matter when I come to court one day."
After hearing this, Wang Xi's face changed slightly, and after a brief pause he said: "Your Highness is dedicated to the country and is diligent in appointing talents. This is a great blessing for the country. However, Hulu Mingyue is a very human being, so please This is also an unusual job, so in order to avoid suspicion, Your Highness is advised not to say too much about it!"
After Gao Yan heard this, his face became a little ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "Yang Zunyan and others have been in charge of the government in recent years, and they have cut down the military in the name of recuperation, ignored border troubles, and suppressed military personnel. Do the princes also want to do this? The common trick teaches me to stay away from my honorable ministers and only stay close to you and my scholars?"
"How dare you have such a narrow plan! Because this matter is too sensitive, Your Highness's position and position may be misinterpreted by someone with evil intentions. Not only will the matter not be accomplished, but it will also cause a lot of personnel trouble."
After Wang Xi heard this, he leaned forward and replied with sincerity: "Mingyue has been in mourning for a long time, and I don't know the details of the changes in the world. I only know that Your Majesty is in a high position and has heavy responsibilities, and any recommendations will be fulfilled. However, the current situation is quite different. In the old year, especially a few days ago, the Supreme Drunk said that the Crown Prince was cowardly. The country needs to look up to His Highness, and those who speak and those who listen have their own arms. But today, we need to be more careful every day. We must not be good at discussing foreign affairs or making arrogant alliances with warriors!"
After hearing this, Gao Yan's face became more and more uncomfortable. Dang even lowered his face and snorted coldly: "This statement is getting more and more ridiculous. The Supreme Son has an heir, and I will abide by my duty. The listener needs to do the same."
What kind of embrace? All the people in Jinyang are my relatives and friends. If we are far away, who can we get close to? Doctor, please don’t bother me with your foolish words. I have already made a plan for this matter, and I don’t need you to be my adviser anymore!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand to signal Wang Xi to leave the room.
Seeing this, Wang Xi could only sigh secretly in his heart, stood up, apologized, and then slowly exited the room. Before he could go far, he saw another official of the palace being summoned into the hall.
Gao Yan was still stubborn and wanted to use this person to draft the memorial.
Wang Xi knew that King Changshan was shrewd, capable and very independent. It would be difficult for others to dissuade him from anything he had already decided. At the same time, he could also understand why King Changshan was so insistent on this matter. It was just because of the situation he was in.
Their position and stance are different, and I think this will be more beneficial to them.
The current Supreme Being has become increasingly moody, manic and violent in recent years. It can be said that all ministers in the court, regardless of their superiority or inferiority, are frightened. Although King Changshan is close to his compatriots, he cannot be said to be absolutely safe.
Especially when the emperor drunkenly said that King Changshan was more suitable to inherit the throne than the crown prince, this inevitably put King Changshan in a very embarrassing and dangerous situation.
Even if the emperor was just making drunken remarks for a moment, the speaker was unintentional but the listener was intentional. The Tian family has no private affairs, and the emperor meant what he said. Such words will definitely cause great shock to the hearts of the people. Especially now.
His Majesty the Emperor has been away from court affairs for a long time and has a group of close ministers who are in power. Do these people have any objections to this?
Let’s not say whether King Changshan has such thoughts. The first thing he needs to do now is to protect himself. As a subordinate of King Changshan, Wang Xi naturally hopes that his lord will be safe and sound, and he can give the best advice in the face of such a situation.
My best advice is to be careful and don't let anyone catch you and make a fuss out of a molehill.
But King Changshan obviously has his own ideas, and is not willing to be so passive. Instead, he wants to contact and win over more personnel to increase his influence and momentum, so as to make people fearful and dare not
Target yourself without permission.
Hu Luguang is a representative figure among Jinyang's nobles. Although his status and relationship are not among the best, his bravery and prowess in fighting are recognized by the masses. Moreover, he has been out of the spotlight for more than two years, and he is not the same as such.
Today's complicated human relations are relatively distant.
King Changshan wanted to help his people return to the dynasty, and he also wanted to express his close attitude towards his ministers. Even if the matter failed in the end, this gesture was done, and it could also invite more people to get closer to him.
Things were just as Wang Xi expected. Two days later, when he was going to Jinyang Palace for an audience, Gao Yan submitted the memorial prepared by his officials and recommended Hu Luguang to be the governor of Jinzhou in person.
