In Xiangyang City, Huang Shumin was very happy when she received the news of Prime Minister Kong Ming's Northern Expedition. She quickly summoned the civil and military forces of Xiangyang to discuss: "Now that your Majesty has moved the capital to Hanzhong, and Prime Minister Zhuge Liang has led the Shu army to conquer, this is a great opportunity to recover the Central Plains and revive the Han Dynasty. We should take the initiative to attack the Central Plains from Fancheng, so that the Wei army can't look at each other, and achieve great achievements in the world." Huang Mochou came out and advised: "When the imperial court decides on the Northern Expedition, there must be an overall plan. Jingzhou Hou Dangjing will wait for His Majesty's decree. yes."
Huang Mochou was telling the truth. However, Huang Shumin had been training soldiers in Xiangyang City for several years. The soldiers and horses were strong and very boring. After finally waiting for this opportunity, she really didn't want to miss it, so she said: "It has been a week since the news of the Northern Expedition came. The court still has There is no news, which is enough to prove that His Majesty allows me to make my own decision."
Other civil servants in Xiangyang City had the same idea as Huang Mochou and came out to dissuade him.
At this time, a soldier reported that Concubine Li had arrived. Huang Shumin was very happy and hurried out to greet her.
It turned out that Li Fei was arranged by Yu Yi to go to Luoyang to lead the underground troops. After Sima Yi was successfully dismissed by the Wei Lord, the initial purpose of the detailed work was achieved, so Xiao Li made a video call to Yu Yi, hoping to return to Xiangyang. Yuyi went to Kong Ming about this matter and felt that he could send someone else to guard it, so he agreed to Xiaoli's request, and then Xiaoli returned to Xiangyang.
Xiaoli entered the Xiangyang Mansion and saw everyone there. Huang Shumin also briefly introduced the situation. Xiaoli said: "I returned from Luoyang. Now that Sima Yi has been deposed, there is no one in Wei who can rival the prime minister. It is very difficult to deal with it. This is what we It’s a great time to send troops to Fancheng.”
Seeing that Xiaoli supported her, Huang Shumin became more confident, so she ignored everyone's objections and announced: "From now on, prepare for the expedition. Leave some troops to guard Xiangyang, and others will join me to attack Fancheng and seize the Central Plains." .”
Yu Yi assisted Li Yan in killing the bandits in Jingshan, and after recovering the skeleton war horse, he ran all the way, and soon entered Xiangyang and arrived near the city gate.
Yu Yi didn't want to be too ostentatious, so he put away the Fang Tian Snake Halberd, transformed into an ordinary citizen, and infiltrated into the city. He came to the inn and found out that the city lord Huang Shumin had ordered soldiers to be on standby and would send troops to Fancheng in three days.
According to the previous plan, Yu Yi went to Xiangyang this time to inform Huang Shumin to stay put to prevent Soochow. However, the battlefield was changing rapidly and it was unknown what the situation was like on the front line. That night, Yu Yi dialed Kong Ming's video.
At that time, Kong Ming was dealing with military affairs. After all, he was fighting on the front line and had many things to consider, so he was mentally exhausted.
When Kong Ming heard the sound of the video, he quickly took out the "Dunjia Tianshu" and connected the video. He only saw Yu Yi with a beard and a somewhat haggard appearance. Yuyi also saw that Kong Ming was thin and had heavy dark circles under his eyes, as if he was very tired.
Yu Yi asked: "Is the Prime Minister in good health?"
Kong Ming bowed and said, "Everything is fine." After talking about how to take back Jiang Wei, capture the Tianshui Four Groups, how to kill Wang Lang on the battlefield, and how to prepare for the Qiang attack.
Yu Yi said: "The Prime Minister has to deal with many things every day, which is very hard. You should take good care of your health!"
Kong Ming said: "It is a blessing for a minister to be able to secure the Central Plains for His Majesty and contribute to the revival of the Han Dynasty."
Yu Yi nodded and said: "I just arrived in Xiangyang and haven't gone to see Jingzhou Marquis Huang Shumin yet. I heard rumors from the people that she is preparing to mobilize the entire city's troops to attack Fancheng. What do you think?"
Kong Ming was very surprised after hearing this and said: "Your Majesty, please be sure to persuade the Marquis of Jingzhou to stay."
Yu Yi felt strange and said: "Now that you are victorious on the front line, Wei has a large number of troops to deal with it. At this time, Huang Shumin sends troops from Xiangyang to attack Fancheng, so that the Wei army guards cannot take care of each other. It is also a good way."
Kong Ming said: "This is indeed good, but I don't know the movements of the Wu State. Although it is allied with the Shu State, it is also paying attention to the war on the front line. If the Wu State takes the initiative to join the war and sneak attacks on our rear, then the Marquis of Xiangyang will do what Guan Yu did before. The mistake of losing Jingzhou, not to mention that the guard opposite Jingzhou is Lu Xun, this person should not be underestimated."
Kong Ming's words reminded Yu Yi, and he praised: "The Prime Minister is more thoughtful. Now attacking the Central Plains is not a day's work. If we fight on two fronts, our food supply will not be able to keep up. I came from Hanzhong this time. Along the way, I also learned about the local customs and found that the people in Western Shu did not understand us launching a war."
Kong Ming said: "When I led my troops to attack the Southern Barbarians, I also knew what the people were thinking. However, I cannot delay the restoration of the Han Dynasty for a moment."
Yu Yi sighed and said, "Prime Minister, please don't carry too much burden in your heart, otherwise it will have the opposite effect."
The two exchanged some further plans and then hung up the video.
Kong Ming put the "Dunjia Heavenly Book" aside, thinking about Yu Yi's persuasion, and thought about teaching Jiang Wei what he had learned as soon as possible to share some of the pressure.
Yu Yi collected the ancient books and planned to go to Huang Shumin overnight to explain the situation.
Yu Yi had never been to Xiangyang City. When he was guarding Jingzhou, he had been in the south. After coming out of the inn, he walked to Huang Shumin's mansion.
Huang Shumin is a typical strong woman. She never married when she was guarding Xiangyang. Yuyi was worried about her, so after ascending to the throne, she was rewarded with some male servants. Later, she was given marriages and married some powerful young men in Sichuan. Selection, choosing the best wife.
Huang Shumin and Xiaoli are similar in some aspects, that is, their persistence in martial arts and their strict training of soldiers. They don't seem to be very interested in men and women. In addition, they are also older, close to forty, even more so. She lost interest in that aspect. After Yuyi proposed marriage, Huang Shumin had no choice but to accept it. However, the two were just in the name of husband and wife, without the reality of husband and wife. As Huang Shumin's husband, Qin Chao also lived a very miserable life. Originally, he wanted to She went to a brothel to fool around, and was afraid of being known by others, so she could only live at home. Later, when Huang Shumin learned about this situation, she asked some beautiful maids and men to be sent to the mansion. Who knew that Qin Chao had a beautiful appearance and a good personality? The feminine man became more interested in the man after he dismissed the man and the maid at the same time, so he often fooled around with the man. After Huang Shumin found out, she felt helpless. They were only a couple in name anyway, so she ignored her.
Huang Mochou and Huang Shumin have opposite personalities. Huang Mochou is the kind of woman with all kinds of charms. In addition, she has a beautiful face and a devilish figure. As long as she uses her beauty tricks, there are not many men who won't take the bait, so she accepts her. She became a favorite of some men, and this matter was well-known in Xiangyang City.
After all, it had a negative impact on the city. Huang Shumin specifically talked to Huang Mochou. Later, Huang Mochou canceled the title of male favorite and demoted him to a servant, but his private life remained as usual.
