Chapter 488

News from Chang'an continued to reach Chengdu.

Although the two places are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, Shi A is very organized and sends the collected information back to Chengdu every day to ensure that Wang Can makes corresponding decisions in the shortest possible time. At this time, Wang Can was sitting

In the study, I was browsing the latest news from Chang'an, with a look of astonishment on my face.

The content of the letter stated that Shi A secretly rescued Li Ru's family, detained Li Ru and his family, and hid them in the Hero Building without being caught by Wang Yun.

Shi A had connections with Wang Yun and did many things to kill Dong Zhuo. He was on Wang Yun's camp.

Wang Yun did not catch Li Ru, and did not suspect that Li Ru would be taken away by Shi A. He simply posted a notice in Chang'an City, wanting Li Ru, and offered a heavy reward. Anyone who caught Li Ru would be rewarded with a thousand gold reward.

It can be said that Wang Yun spent a lot of money to catch Li Ru and must get rid of Li Ru.

It's a pity that Shi'a got in the way and Wang Yun's plan was ruined.

Li Ru's matter was put on hold.

In fact, the letter from Shi A mentioned two things. One of them was that Li Ru was hidden by Shi A, and the other was that Dong Zhuo's generals Fan Chou, Li Meng, Zhang Ji and Xu Rong refused to accept Lu Bu and joined forces to fight against Lu Bu.

Wang Yun submitted a letter requesting to surrender to the imperial court, and Wang Yun agreed and prepared to pardon the Xiliang army.

Wang Can was a little excited when he saw the first thing.

However, after seeing the second thing, my heart suddenly sank.

Once Wang Yun agreed to Fan Chou and other Xiliang army's request and pardoned the Xiliang army's sins, there would be no need for the Xiliang army to counterattack Chang'an, and the chaos in Chang'an that Wang Can hoped to see would not occur. In this way, the Han Dynasty

The family will not be in turmoil, which is definitely not a good thing for Wang Can.

Wang Can took a deep breath and shouted: "Here comes someone!"

After the voice fell, a soldier walked in from outside the study. Wang Can looked up at the soldier and ordered: "Send someone immediately to invite Cheng Yu, Guo Jia and Xun You to come to the study to discuss matters."

"promise!"

The soldier replied, turned and left.

A quarter of an hour later, Cheng Yu rushed to the Prefectural Mufu Mansion first and came to the study.

Wang Can handed the letter to Cheng Yu and asked Cheng Yu to read it.

Not long after, Guo Jia and Xun You also came hand in hand. The two of them received the letter from Cheng Yu. After reading the message on the letter, they had mixed expressions on their faces, and a solemn look in their eyes.

Cheng Yu stroked his beard under his chin and said: "My lord, Chang'an will never be able to stabilize, because after the death of Emperor Ling, the forces of relatives and eunuchs represented by He Jin and Zhang Rang respectively fought against each other, and both sides suffered losses. There are no relatives and eunuchs in the court.

In the situation where the eunuchs have exclusive power, if Wang Yun stabilizes the situation and Lu Bu guards Chang'an, the lost prestige of the court may be restored. If the lord wants to make a profit, he must create chaos and let the Xiliang army attack Chang'an.

"

Cheng Yu is good at Legalism, he is decisive and ruthless in doing things, regardless of means.

After he saw the situation clearly, he ignored the situation of the court and suggested that Wang Can create chaos and profit from the chaos.

In fact, the court has an upright minister like Wang Yun presiding over the affairs of the court. As long as the decision-making is not wrong, it will be able to gradually regain its strength. At that time, the princes who dominate the parties will not be able to occupy the righteousness and can only obey the orders of the court. For this reason,

The current situation must be broken and the stable situation becomes turbulent.

A trace of intolerance flashed across Xun You's face, but he still gritted his teeth and said: "My lord, we must not let the Xiliang army be pardoned by Wang Yun. With the rebellion of the Xiliang army, my lord has an excuse to leave Yizhou, go north to Chang'an, and occupy Guanzhong."

place."

Guo Jia said seriously: "My lord, Li Ru is ruthless and cunning, why not let Li Ru incite the Xiliang army to rebel and counterattack Chang'an."

Wang Can was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately shook his head and said, "Li Ru has an extraordinary mind, I'm afraid it won't be easy to convince him."

Cheng Yu raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said in a cold voice: "In emergencies, extraordinary means should be used. The lord does not have to worry about whether Li Ru is willing to submit. He directly asks Shi A to send Li Ru, his wife and children to Chengdu. There are Li Ru's wife and children.

As a hostage, Li Ru has no choice but to incite the Xiliang army to rebel. If he fails, he will threaten Li Ru to kill his wife and children. I think Li Ru will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal for the sake of the incense of his ancestors."

The corner of Wang Can's mouth twitched slightly, he was indeed Cheng Yu and Cheng Zhongde, he was ruthless and powerful enough.

However, he likes it.

With Cheng Yu here, Wang Can can solve many things without having to step forward.

Thinking of letting the Xiliang army rebel, a character flashed in Wang Can's mind.

The man put forward the five realms of counselors. The first is to seek and protect oneself. In order to protect his own life, this man persuaded Li Jue and Guo Si to raise troops to counterattack Chang'an, and finally drove away Lu Bu and forced

After the death of Wang Yun, his power was overwhelming for a while, allowing the Xiliang army to occupy Chang'an, further aggravating the decline of the Han Dynasty.

This person is Jia Xu.

Wang Can thought for a while and asked, "Have you ever heard of Jia Xu?"

Hearing this, Guo Jia shook his head, expressing his ignorance.

Xun You said with a smile: "You have heard an interesting story about Jia Xu. It said that Jia Xu resigned from office due to illness. When he was returning home, he met Di people on the road. Dozens of people who were traveling with Jia Xu were arrested by Di people.

live."

"The Di people have hated the Han people for a long time and wanted to kill everyone. In order to survive, Jia Xu lied to the Di people that he was the nephew of Taiwei Duan Ying and told the Di people not to kill him. His family would give him a lot of money.

Give it to Di people."

"Jia Xu deceived the Di people and said that he was Duan Ying's nephew. The Di people really did not dare to kill him. Because Duan Ying, the Taiwei at that time, had served as a border general for a long time and was very popular among the Di people and other ethnic minorities. The Di people heard that

After Jia Xu's words, he was afraid in his heart, and after swearing an alliance with Jia Xu, he sent Jia Xu away, but the remaining people were all killed."

Xun You smiled and said: "About Jia Xu, you only know this interesting story, and it was told by my uncle in his spare time. Apart from this, you don't know anything about Jia Xu."

After hearing this, Wang Can sighed, secretly lamenting that Jia Xu was not famous yet.

In fact, before Dong Zhuo's death, Jia Xu did not show any corresponding talents.

When he became famous, it was because Jia Xu persuaded Li Jue and Guo Si to counterattack Chang'an that he became known to everyone. Later, Jia Xu helped Zhang Xiu defeat Cao Cao and killed Cao Cao's guard Dian Wei and Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang.

, killed Cao Cao and fled in embarrassment, abandoning his helmet and armor, and then showed his extraordinary talent, which was known to everyone in the world.

Cheng Yu looked at Wang Can and asked, "My lord, where did you learn about Jia Xu?"

Wang Can was stunned. He returned to this era and had not heard any news about Jia Xu from any channel.

However, Wang Can has an advantage that no one else has. He is familiar with history and knows most of the people in the history of the Three Kingdoms, so he can get news about these people without having to meet and interact with them.

However, Cheng Yu asked a question, which made Wang Can startled, not knowing how to answer.

After a moment of silence, Wang Can explained: "I learned Jia Xu's name when I went to Luoyang to seek an official position. I met Dong Zhuo at that time, and Jia Xu was Dong Zhuo's official, so I had a close relationship with Jia Xu.

Yuan, I noticed this name."

After Cheng Yu heard this, he did not continue to ask further questions.

He was silent for a moment and said: "My lord, Yu has lived for most of his life and knows a lot of things and also some things about Jia Xu. When Jia Xu was young, his reputation was not prominent. However, Yan Zhong, a famous scholar at that time, said that Jia Xu

There are talents like Zhang Liang and Chen Ping. It can be seen that Jia Xu is definitely a talent. Now that Jia Xu is serving under Dong Zhuo and Dong Zhuo is dead, the lord has the opportunity to recruit this person through Li Ru and make him his lord.

Used."

The corners of Wang Can's mouth raised, revealing a smile.

It would be best if we could get Jia Xu's help. With Li Ru and Jia Xu assisting us, he is the only one who can do evil to others, and no one else can do it to him.



Chang'an, Situ Mansion.

In the hall, Wang Yun sat on the main seat, and Wang Yun's staff sat below.

After Dong Zhuo's death, Wang Yun fully took over the government. Although Lv Bu and Wang Yun were nominally the same, they had great power. Their position was greater than that of the three princes, and their responsibilities were greater than that of the three ministers. However, Lü Bu was a big boss and did not understand the affairs of the court at all.

Recruit soldiers, train soldiers, and don't care about other things.

Therefore, there is no power struggle between Wang Yun and Lu Bu, and they get along harmoniously.

Wang Yun's staff are two middle-aged men.

One of them is tall and thin, with three short strands of beard under his chin, and has the style of a noble scholar. His name is Fan Hu, with the Chinese character long Yan. The other person is ordinary in appearance, except for a pair of very bright eyes with a little sparkle. His name is Shen.

Xu, whose courtesy name is Minghe, has some talent and strategy.

Wang Yun looked at the two men and said, "I wanted to pardon the Xiliang Army at first, but suddenly I felt that it was very unreasonable to pardon the Xiliang Army, so I wanted to make a redo."

The two asked in unison: "May I ask the prince what his plan is?"

Wang Yun said: "Originally, the Xiliang army was not guilty because they followed Dong Zhuo involuntarily, so they had no choice but to obey Dong Zhuo's orders and made a mistake. However, if they are suddenly charged with treason,

Moreover, pardoning them specifically may make them suspicious and fearful, and they may not be able to bear it in their hearts. Therefore, pardoning them is not the best way to make them feel at ease. It is better to let them suffer punishment."

Wang Yun did this not because he wanted to kill the Xiliang army, but to reduce the military power of the Xiliang army. He thought for a moment and then said: "Dong Zhuo is dead, and the Xiliang army has done a lot of harm. We

I intend to disband the Xiliang soldiers and eliminate the threat of the Xiliang soldiers."

Fan Hu stroked his beard, nodded and said, "What the prince said is very reasonable."

After hearing this, Wang Yun nodded and smiled.

However, Shen Xu suggested: "My lord, the Xiliang soldiers are all brave and rebellious. If we forcibly disband them, the Xiliang soldiers will be worried about their lives and will not be able to survive. In this way, it is easy to cause a mutiny."

and chaos. It is better to appoint Huangfu Yizhen as the general to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Xiliang soldiers, and let him stay there for a long time in order to appease the morale of the army."

Wang Yun shook his head resolutely and said: "No, this will never work. If the Xiliang army is allowed to return to Xiliang, wouldn't it be like letting the tiger return to the mountain and allowing the Xiliang army to cause trouble?"

Shen Xu wanted to persuade him again, but Fan Hu shook his head at him to stop him from talking.

Seeing this, Shen Xu swallowed the words as soon as they reached his mouth.

Wang Yun did not have any melancholy, and directly refused to appease the Xiliang Army, insisting on disbanding the Xiliang Army and reducing its military power, so that he could sleep peacefully.

The so-called one thought of heaven and one thought of hell.

Wang Yun's decision determined his future path.
