Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 220: Internal and external troubles

Zhao Yang, Dong Anyu, and Zhao Wuxi had anticipated the "neutrality" of the Marquis of Jin in advance. ??,

In fact, Liu Qing handled Zhao Yang's coma a bit hastily and improperly. They are still not ready for a full-scale war, just like the six opponents playing chess, only weakening the enemy with partial divisions on the periphery, but without the courage of a direct general.

The situation is intricate and complicated.

Of course, Zhao Wuxi will not forget the difficulty of becoming a township, the hatred of dozens of soldiers and the people of the country, and he can't wait to make the murderer pay the price immediately. But if his head is hot right now and he hastily declared war on Fan and Bank of China, it will not benefit Zhao and his future plans in the slightest.

Because of Zhao's strength, he was at a disadvantage around Xinjiang; what's more, Zhao Yang pretended to be healthy to inspect the lower palace before, but it was only a strong support.

His body still needs to rest for several months under the care of Doctor Bian Que before he can fully recover. This tiger-like gentleman miraculously woke up after a rare seven-and-a-half-day fainting. His personality seemed to have subsided, and he was more mature and stable than before. For Zhao, it was a good thing.

Therefore, some of Zhao's methods are actually just bluffs. This time, when he entered the palace, Wu Xian was the first to report Fan and China's misdeeds, and put himself in the role of a loyal monarch and a victim, to win the public opinion support of the monarch, neutral officials and the people of the country.

As a result, the situation suddenly changed hands.

Zhong Xingyin, who had an advantage in strength, did not dare to take risks to attack the Zhao family because of hesitation, so he became passive: Fan Yang had not returned yet, and Zhong Xingyin was very concerned about the mysterious loud noise that turned the tide of the battle that night, and did not dare to do it again. recklessly.

A few days ago, Xiaozong and Yizai who had received Dong Anyu and Wuxihu talisman but had an ambiguous attitude, when they learned that Zhao Yang had recovered, they sent people to express their loyalty and tears.

Zhao Yang and Wu Xie looked at this with a cold eye. After this crisis, the father and son felt that. What needs to be done most is to eliminate these unstable factors within the Zhao family one by one by using the method to deal with the surrounding townships of the lower palace.

Let the Zhao family have only one name and one suzerain. a voice! Only by connecting the Zhao clan's territory in the north, instead of being trapped in various mountain passes and small towns, will they have a chance to win in the war.

At this moment, Fan Yang, who was far away in Chaoge, also sent a letter back, but it was not for Zhong Xingyin and Fan Jia. Instead, it was held by Fan's messenger, delivered to the lower palace, and asked Zhao Yang to see it personally.

After opening the letter and reading it, Zhao Yang laughed upright, and then handed it over to Zhao Wuxi and the doctors who were gathering for a public discussion.

"What, Fan Bo, want to reconcile!?"

So far, Fan Yang has been staying in Chaoge's purpose, and gradually surfaced, after the news that "Zhao Yang is dead" came. The wily jackal responded immediately.

Around Xinjiang, where the relationship is intricate, he asked Bank of China Yin and his grandson Fan Jia to test the Zhao family, like throwing a pebble into the water to observe its ripples. On the one hand, it is necessary to confirm whether the news is true. If it can cause chaos in the Zhao family, it is best.

But unlike Bank of China Yin, Fan Yang's purpose is not to destroy Zhao's family at one time. Unpredictable consequences. His real thought was to take this opportunity to dismember Zhao.

"There are many small clans in the Zhao clan, among which the Handan clan is the largest. The blood of the Zhao clan is also the most distant! We can distance ourselves."

So he sent his son Fan Jishe to Handan, not far from Chaoge, to persuade the Handan clan.

Handan Wu was also moved by the Guizhi handed over by Fan Yang, the owner of the Handan family.

Since the last time, his eldest son, Handan Ji, has been in the Pan Palace. After a conflict with Wu Xie, the concubine of the great sect, Handan Wu was summoned to Wendi by Zhao Yang and severely reprimanded, forcing him to change his heir.

At that time, although Handan Wu swallowed his anger and did as instructed, he was actually dissatisfied and a lot of resentment occurred.

A gentleman's ze, beheaded for five generations! In Handan and other cities, he is also the supreme lord who rules tens of thousands of people. He is fed up with the days when such a small sect is mounted on his head by a large sect, and he will come and go when he is called!

Therefore, when Zhao Yang was dead and the news that Zhao's sons were fighting to stand, he was ready to move.

And Fan Yang's suggestion made Handan Wu ecstatic.

Fan Yang said that if Handan publicly declared that it would break away from the Zhao clan, he could help Handan Wu to speak for the monarch, let him enter the new clan, replace the failed sons of the Zhao clan and become the new minister... and even reverse the relationship with the Zhao clan. Big relationship!

"Handan sons must not forget the act of Quwo on behalf of the Jin Dynasty, as the poem said at the turn of October: the high shore is the valley, and the deep valley is the mausoleum. Since ancient times, the ups and downs, the high and the low, the high and the low, the change of status is common. In the past, the Shi clan was a big sect for the Fan clan, but now it is a small sect;

However, within a few days, Zhao Yang recovered, and the news of the public inspection of the lower palace by foot was known to the Handan clan. The originally ambitious Handan Wu immediately gave up, and immediately lost the thought of "rebellious".

He was afraid of Zhao Yang, and he was afraid of the "autumn sun" from the bottom of his heart. For more than ten years since he became the head of the Handan family, he has been shrouded in the hot light of Zhao Yang, and he dared not have the slightest disobedient.

Even if Kun's father and brothers in Handan City repeatedly persuaded him not to do anything else, he simply went to the more closely related in-law Zhong Xing; even if Fan Yang made such a tempting promise, Handan Wu resolutely did not dare to stay in Zhao Yang. What are you thinking about.

"As long as the lord is alive for a day, I can't betray the Zhao family."

He sent someone to politely send Fan Jishe away, behind closed doors. And this defeat made Fan Yangwei, who was in Chaoge, sigh.

"Zhao Mengzhilie, actually as for Si?"

Fan Yang is already an 80-year-old drooping old man, and he feels that his time is short.

His life can be described as extremely bumpy and magnanimous: first, because he indirectly caused the death of Luan Needle, he was reported by the Luan family in front of the monarch and expelled him to Qin State; after he returned to the country, he wanted revenge on his nephew Luan Ying. The confrontation between the two can be described as The peak of Jin Qing's century-old infighting.

During this period, Luan Ying went into exile in Chu and Qi, and went back and forth. The battle spread around Xinjiang. The Wei family switched between the two families. Duke Zhuang of Qi even sent troops to intervene, all the way to the pass of Taihang. The Fan family was in danger several times. Thanks to their father and son's best efforts, they held the monarch Jin Pinggong hostage, with the help of the people of the country. The situation was stabilized.

In the following 30 years, Fan Yang matured and kept a low profile. He silently killed his ancestors Zhao Wu, Han Qi, his peers Wu Shu, and his political opponent Wei Shu, and finally ushered in his own era of governance.

nowadays. In the Jin Kingdom, he was only afraid of two people, one was the forbearance Zhibo, and the other was Zhao Meng, who was becoming more and more powerful.

Fan Yang had nothing to do with the former, which was as smooth as water. But for Zhao Yang. Although this somewhat reckless young gentleman was repeatedly played and defeated by Fan Yang in the court, he never gave in and stood up again and again, making Fan Yang have to start paying attention.

If he died, his son Fan Jishe and his ally Zhong Xingyin would probably not be his opponents.

The plan to dismember Zhao's family was going very smoothly, but once Zhao Yang recovered, he didn't even need to do anything. Just dignifiedly circled the lower palace, and Fan Yang's conspiracy became powerless.

This person is getting more and more difficult to deal with, not to mention that he has a good son to help him.

However, Fan Yang scoffed at those fearful rumors.

"Zhao's concubine had the help of ghosts and gods, and led Tianlei to retreat from the enemy? It's ridiculous, the Bank of China actually believed it, not as much as his father, the Bank of China Muzi!"

Fan Jishe also said regretfully: "From the letter. Even if it is Tianlei, if you think about it carefully, in fact, it has only killed and injured more than ten people, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

Fan Yang stroked his white beard. He said contemptuously: "According to Ajia, the concubines of the Zhao family have always liked to play with some ingenious and strange things, such as waterwheels, mills, and porcelain. That thunderclap was probably a trap set by the craftsmen to scare people."

Although, if the Zhao family has the means to make a loud explosion with human power. It's enough to make them vigilant, but after getting rid of the unstoppable ghosts and gods of human beings, they won't feel particularly scary.

Maybe this is God's will?

"Forget it, let's just end this matter. The old man has already sent a letter to Zhao Meng to reconcile with him."

Fan Jishe was a little unwilling: "Although Handan rejected his father's good intentions, if there is a war, I am afraid that it will not listen to Zhao Yang's dispatch. We will start our army from Chaoge and swept the Zhao family outside Taihang with a half army. The territory is not difficult. On the side of Bo Zhong Xing, he can also use five strong troops to defeat the soldiers of Zhao and Han, and then the big event can be determined. It is just that the attitude of the monarch and Zhi and Wei Erqing is unpredictable..."

Fan Yang vetoed the military adventure: "If that's the case, we will be charged with the crime of leading the rebels, and we cannot do anything about it. Now Fan's family is not stable. The Yin doctor in the south is Zhao Yang's party, and yours My cousin, Shigaoyi, is the party of the Zhi clan, and they are all part of Dazong.”

"But this time, Ajia and Zhao's concubines fought a war, and hundreds of people were killed and injured. Although they did it in the name of robbers, the hatred has already been forged. How can the Zhao family just let it go?"

Fan Yang, however, was confident: "We are fighting with the Zhao clan? Don't talk nonsense, it's obviously just robbers pretending to be Fan clan soldiers, as long as they are eliminated, what else can Zhao clan say? Zhao Meng's ally Le Qi can be used as compensation and exchange..."

After that, Shangqing of Jin turned to the east corner of Pingchuan, and not far to the east was the border of Jin and Wei: "What's more, the neighbors to the east and south are getting more and more restless..."

After he got off the city wall, he asked people to prepare the carriages and horses to return to Xinjiang, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com continued to teach his son: "The situation in the world is changing rapidly. We must adapt flexibly to benefit the clan. Within a few days of receiving the news, the situation has not changed much. Zhao Meng and I have fought for ten years. Years, the old man naturally knows his temperament and will definitely agree to reconciliation!"

The reason why Fan Yang thinks so is because a few days ago, a news came from the south: Qi Hou and Zheng Bo formally met in Xiandi, formed an alliance, and together they sent tens of thousands of troops to Wei.

They also sent letters to the princes of Song, Lu, Beiyan, Cao, Zhu, Xiaozhu, Ju, and Xianyu who originally belonged to Jin, calling them to meet in Wei. The purpose is obvious. Qi Hou is not willing to be lonely anymore. He wants to compete with Jin for the position of hegemon!

"Brothers are bound by the wall, and the outside is humiliated. Now that the Jin State is approaching foreign troubles, can the internal worries rest for a while?"

This is what Fan Yang said to Zhao Yang on the slip. (To be continued.)
