Shouchun.
Followed by dozens of soldiers, a strong man wearing armor walked quickly towards the mansion.
This man had a rugged appearance, a thick beard, and fierce eyes. When the servants along the way saw him, they hurriedly bowed to him and did not dare to look at him.
Unlike those elegant and virtuous ministers in the temple, he looked more like a vulgar and cruel butcher, without any sense of celebrity.
And there was a young boy following him.
This young man looks to be about the same age as An Shi. He has no beard and has an immature appearance.
However, he was too tall, a head taller than the mighty general walking in front of him. His appearance was very heroic and resolute, and his eyes were even more unruly. He was also wearing armor at the moment, and he put his hands on On the hilt of the sword, he followed the general swaggeringly.
This group of people just walked towards the mansion. The soldiers guarding along the road saluted one after another, and no one dared to stop them.
After passing through a long corridor, we finally came to a house.
The general stopped and said to the people behind him: "Wait here! Ayang and I will go in!"
The young man following him nodded, and the other soldiers lined up on both sides.
The general led the young man directly into the house.
"General!!!"
This person spoke, and his voice was loud and deafening.
There was a man in the room. He was quite old, with a gray beard. He was wearing a long robe, dressed as a scholar, and had a dignified appearance. He was similar to the appearance of the virtuous ministers in the temple.
He was holding a pen, kneeling in front of the case, writing something.
The rough and arrogant general yelled, but his pen tilted and a long horizontal line was drawn on the white paper in front of him.
Guanqiu Jian reluctantly put away his pen, raised his head and looked at General Wen Qin in front of him.
Wen Qin didn't see anyone outside at all. He walked to Guan Qiujian's side in a carefree manner, lowered his head, looked at the long horizontal line, and couldn't help but mocked, "It seems that the general is still not calm enough!!"
Guanqiu Jian was not angry either, stroking his beard and laughing.
"If Governor Wen yells a few more times, I will become calm."
Wen Qin then smiled and sat in front of him.
No one would have thought that the one wearing armor and with a fierce look on his face was the governor of Yangzhou, while the other one who was elegant and gentle with a pen and ink was General Zhendong...
I always feel that the two people's positions seem to be reversed.
"The general is writing poetry again?!"
"No, this is your Majesty's poem, called Empty City Bird."
"Oh... Your Majesty can also write poetry?"
Wen Qin asked curiously.
Speaking of this, Guanqiu Jian is not sleepy anymore.
He raised his head, his eyes sparkling, "More than just knowing how to write!"
"Your Majesty is a man of extraordinary talent and military prowess. He is a hero that has never been seen in the ages. Even Emperor Wen probably couldn't write such poems. Perhaps only King Chen Si can match it..."
Wen Qin scratched his head and said with suspicion: "That's not what you said at the beginning...Ayang! What did the general say at the beginning?"
The young man standing at the door said without thinking: "The general once said that His Majesty is unorthodox and is a plaything supported by the Sima family..."
Guanqiu Jian hurriedly cleared his throat, "Ahem, don't mention this matter again from now on!"
Guanqiu Jian grew up with Cao Rui, and the two had a very close relationship. Guanqiu Jian was extremely loyal to Cao Rui.
And how did Cao Mao become emperor?
After deposing Cao Rui's stepson Cao Fang, he was pushed up by the Sima family.
Therefore, Guanqiu Jian did not recognize the new emperor Cao Mao at all. In his eyes, the person who really had the right to rule was the deposed King Cao Fang of Qi. It was not your turn to be the emperor after being pushed out by the Sima family!
Therefore, in history, when Guanqiu Jian raised his troops, he read out the empress dowager's edict to everyone, clearly stating that Sima Shi's dethronement of Cao Fang was a heinous crime.
However, this time things are different.
In fact, after Cao Fang was deposed, Guanqiu Jian began to prepare for an army.
Cao Mao refused to ascend the throne several times in Yuancheng, which gained Guanqiu Jian's favor. He felt that the clan was not too bad and knew that he was not worthy of that position.
Immediately afterwards, he received a letter from his son.
This letter was actually sent by the person from Yuancheng.
Guanqiu Jian was particularly surprised. When he heard that the strong men under his command had sent messages thousands of miles away, he felt even more respectful.
Immediately, he read the letter carefully.
In the letter, Cao Mao advised him not to rush to raise troops. He analyzed in detail the situation of Sima Division, the attitudes of Zhuge Dan and others, as well as some of his own ideas, and said that he would prove his own position.
Before Guanqiu Jian could react, he heard that Cao Mao had rehabilitated Xia Houxuan.
What else can you say?
Guanqiu Jian immediately began to think of ways to protect this young and promising clan sage!
Although Guanqiu Jian slowed down his preparations for raising troops, he did not want to completely obey Cao Mao.
However, in the following days, the emperor gave him a big surprise.
The storm of succession in the temple and the news of Zhuge Dan's private meeting with Master Sima have made people in the temple panic.
This all has something to do with His Majesty.
At this moment, Guanqiu Jian seems to think that this son is enough to inherit the great achievements of his ancestors. As for King Qi, you should rest first.
Wen Qin did not ask further questions and said seriously: "General, I am ready...I can take action at any time."
Guanqiu Jian frowned, his face full of solemnity.
"good..."
"Then when will we raise troops?!"
"There's no rush."
Guanqiu Jian said calmly: "Your Majesty is right. It is the Sima family that is in a dilemma at the moment, not us... Sima Division will not be able to hold on for long. Once we start the army, the families of the soldiers will be in the north. If we succeed in the early stage, Without results, morale will collapse... Therefore, we must fight quickly. When the time comes, Sima Division only needs to hold on, and we will be defeated..."
Wen Qin's face darkened and he cursed: "It's all Zhuge Dan's fault! This stupid bitch actually made peace with Master Sima!"
Guanqiu Jian shook his head, his eyes also a little sad.
At the beginning, Guanqiu Jian, Xia Houxuan, Zhuge Dan, Li Feng and others were all on good terms and were friends with each other.
Guanqiu Jian couldn't figure out why Zhuge Dan could turn against him so easily... He was obviously a minister who had eaten Wei Lu, so how could he help the rebels?
Although he didn't understand, Guanqiu Jian couldn't believe his old friend anymore.
"No problem, Zhuge Dan pays most attention to his reputation. The previous rumors made him very frightened, and he was afraid that he would not dare to get too close to Master Sima... What's more, these rumors have already appeared under his rule."
"Ah? How come rumors appear in his territory?"
Wen Qin didn't understand.
"I sent someone to do it."
Guanqiu Jian replied.
He added: "It's not feasible to win over Zhuge Dan now, but we can find ways to keep him neutral... Zhuge Dan just wants to protect himself. He doesn't want to help me. In fact, he may not I sincerely want to help Master Sima...I am going to meet him and have a good talk with him...let him know the truth behind the death of the lips and the coldness of the teeth."
"If it doesn't work, let me lead the troops to kill him!"
Wen Qin said with disdain, and pointed at the young man in the distance, "Ayang can cut off his head and present it to the general without my intervention!"
Guanqiu Jian looked at the young man with admiration in his eyes.
The young man's name is Wenchu, also named Ciqian, and he is Wenqin's son. He is only seventeen years old, so Wenqin and others like to call him by his nickname, which is Ayang.
In later generations, he was called Wenyang.
"Zizhi Tongjian" records that when Guanqiu Jian was fighting Sima Division, he thought that he wanted to rub the spirit of Sima Division's army, so he led more than ten people into the enemy's formation, making him unstoppable and invincible. Sima Division sent left commander Shi Sima Ban to lead eight thousand soldiers to cover up the attack. Wen Yang single-handedly charged into the formation of thousands of cavalry, killing and wounding more than a hundred people in the blink of an eye. He entered and exited six or seven times, but the chasing cavalry did not dare to approach.
This person's greatest achievement was "scaring" Master Sima to death.
Historically, Master Sima had a tumor removed and fell ill and went to war. Wen Yang made a night attack and shocked Master Sima's eyes. Master Sima died of illness on the way back to the army. That year, Wen Yang was eighteen years old... .
Wen Yang was only seventeen years old at the moment, but he was famous in Shouchun.
He has been a very arrogant person since he was a child, just like his father, unruly and unruly. When he was young, he fought all over the city south and north, and no one dared to provoke him. As he grew older, he started fighting with his father's old generals.
Nowadays, no one under Wen Qin can beat this tiger. This is not because they are showing mercy, but they really can't beat him. Everyone is no match for him.
He had a conflict with a general under Guanqiu Jian's command before, and then he threw the general far away.
Guanqiu Jian was almost shocked by him, and he valued him even more from then on, thinking that he could be the vanguard to defeat Sima Division.
Wen Qin was very proud of his son, always taking him with him and constantly showing off to others.
"A-Yang's attack will definitely be to chop off his head... However, how can Zhuge Dan's head demonstrate A-Yang's martial arts? Only Sima Shi's head can do it."
Guanqiu Jian spoke, and his words made both the father and son of the Wen family extremely happy.
Guanqiu Jian immediately said: "Next, we must continue to win over many generals, be prepared, and wait for opportunities. We must not be anxious..."
"General!! It's not good!! General!!"
I saw an official rushing into the house in a panic.
"What happened?!"
"Heyin ordered Guo Kui to send people here, saying that they were ordered by the emperor to raise troops to attack the national traitors and kill the Sima division... He asked us to respond!"
"ah???"
