Xie Xuan's eyes sparkled and he looked directly at Liu Yu: "Then why did you go to Guanzhong again? You have been fighting in the past two years, why don't you marry Miaoyin and live a happy life?"
Liu Yu laughed: "Huo Qubing once said that before the Xiongnu were destroyed, why should we take care of our family? Marshal Xuan, you understand me."
Xie Xuan shook his head: "Huo Qubing didn't have enough education. He didn't marry and have children at his prime. The Huo family had no heirs. In the end, he was exterminated along with his younger brother. Xiaoyu, starting a family and building a career have no conflict with realizing their ideals. He married Miaoyin early and became Liu's family. This is what you have to do to carry on the family lineage. You have fought too many battles and made too many contributions, so you should take a two-year break."
Liu Yu's expression changed: "Xuanshuai, what do you mean? Aren't you going to take me with you in this Northern Expedition?"
Xie Xuan said seriously: "After we deal with Murong Chui, we will continue to regain Guanzhong, and then it will be time to use you. Your marriage to Miaoyin has been delayed again and again. Even if you want to be a hero, she is I am gradually passing the marriageable age, is this really good?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "Miaoyin and I have made an agreement a long time ago. We must become famous, be glamorous, and marry her upright. I have been fighting for the Northern Expedition all my life, and I am just about to take the last step. No. How can you be willing to take me with you?"
Xie Xuan sighed: "Xiao Yu, let me tell you clearly. I just want to take you on the Northern Expedition this time, but there is no possibility. I am very aware of what you did in Chang'an and I was very moved, but these things are in the hands of King Kuaiji. That’s not how the king’s servants shoot them in their mouths.”
Liu Yu's heart suddenly sank. He remembered what Huan Xuan had said to him when he left Chang'an that night. Someone would always make a fuss about this, saying that he was collaborating with the enemy and treason, and used it as a weapon to attack the Xie family.
Liu Yu said with emotion: "Aren't some villains just using me as an excuse to slander the Xie family? I'm an upright person, so why would a guy who wants to treason bring back the jade seal? I'm willing to do it in front of the Holy Lord, in person Confront people who say that about me.”
Xie Xuan said calmly: "If we hadn't explained it to the Lord like this, why would you be standing here now? But I want to tell you, Xiaoyu, the thing I just told you about where the Lord questioned Mr. Xianggong in public happened. The day after our explanation, the Holy Spirit just accepted our excuse for you, saying that we were going to hold a banquet to celebrate, and then he showed up like this during the celebration banquet. Why do you think he was like this?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "It must be the slander of Wang Guobao and others. I am willing to explain to the Holy Lord in person to clear myself and the Xie family's grievances."
Xie Xuan shook his head: "No need to explain, it's useless. The reason why he treated us like this is not because we really did anything wrong, but because we wanted to seize this opportunity that has not been seen in a century and complete the feat of regaining the lost territory in the Northern Expedition. In our view, this is the duty of a son of the Han family, but in his view, this is the preparation for our Xie family to control the army, occupy territory, and finally usurp power and seize the throne. The more things we do, the greater the contribution we will make. , the less he tolerates us. He himself is incapable of the Northern Expedition, and he won’t let us gain prestige through the Northern Expedition. How can we explain this kind of thing?"
Liu Yu was speechless for a long time, and then he sighed: "Having such an emperor reign is a tragedy for all of us Han people. No matter what, the great cause of the Northern Expedition cannot be hindered. This time the Xie family can make the Northern Expedition as a family." , Just like General Zu Ti back then, I sent you to admire him!"
Xie Xuan smiled and patted Liu Yu on the shoulder: "Xiao Yu, I single-handedly recruited you into the Beifu Army, and you agreed to Miaoyin's marriage early. In the eyes of outsiders, you are the epitome of the Beifu Army. The so-called control of the Beifu Army by the Xie family is through the cultivation of you, Liu Yu. Every time you take the initiative to ask for help and act on your own with your extraordinary judgment, the victories you achieve will be said to be the result of the Xie family. His future son-in-law created these opportunities to make meritorious deeds and spread his followers and cronies throughout the army. Just as Cao Cao cultivated Xu Chu, Sima Zhao used his family general Cheng Ji to assassinate Cao Wei's noble countryman Cao Mao. This was just to cultivate an obedient eagle dog who would do his best in the future. A matter of treason.”
Liu Yu sneered and said: "Let them tell it. Facts will speak louder than words. I, Liu Yu, am loyal to the Jin Dynasty and devoted to the Northern Expedition. This bold loyalty can be learned from the sun."
Xie Xuan nodded: "Having said that, after all, the Northern Expedition now requires the power of the whole country. Even if the emperor or other aristocratic families do not support it, at least they cannot hinder it from behind and openly oppose it. There were already such people at the last banquet As soon as you come out, the eyes of those opponents are now focused on you. If I order you to be the vanguard like before, and if the Northern Expedition accomplishes great feats again, they will have these reasons and excuses."
Liu Yu nodded: "I understand what Marshal Xuan means, but if I listen to you and don't go to the Northern Expedition at this time, but go to marry Miaoyin, I'm afraid the result will be worse."
Xie Xuan's expression changed: "How do you say this?"
Liu Yu sighed: "I took back the jade seal, not to go to the Northern Expedition, but to marry Miaoyin. How will you arrange for me then? It is impossible for me to take Miaoyin back to my hometown to farm. Even if I farm, with my current military position, I will be a civil servant. , coupled with the reward after this meritorious service, even in order to be worthy of Miaoyin, it is indispensable for at least one Jingkou to hold an official position such as Sima. They can also say that your Xie family has placed cronies to control Jingkou. If anything happens, they can Attack nearby and threaten the capital."
Xie Xuan's brows gradually wrinkled and he did not reply immediately.
Liu Yu said sternly: "And in my capacity, if I don't have any positive achievements and just steal a jade seal, I am not qualified to marry Miaoyin. This humiliation will give people the excuse to say that the Xie family has let the Xie family do something illegal." A lowly soldier is a son-in-law who wants to take advantage of the opportunity to launch a mutiny. Otherwise, a tiger general like Liu Yu will not go to fight for the country, but will lead the army in the rear. What does the Xie family want to do?"
Xie Xuan murmured: "Yes, why didn't I think of this?"
Liu Yu took a deep breath and replied: "Shuai Xuan, the Northern Expedition is a big deal. Don't waste your time talking about it. If you are worried that I will make meritorious deeds and give people a reason to talk about it, then don't give me a vanguard position. Let me be a leader by your side." You can join the army, or even be a soldier, as long as you take me with you and let me participate in the Northern Expedition, I think I will be helpful to you and the Northern Expedition!"
Xie Xuan stared at Liu Yu closely: "But in this case, you may not have any merit or honor, and your marriage to Miaoyin will have to be postponed. Is this really good?"
Liu Yu replied categorically: "For the great cause of the Northern Expedition, I will never look back!"
Xie Xuan looked at Liu Yu for a long time before sighing: "Then you can stay. In two days, Liu Yi will bring the Jingkou veterans to report. You old brothers can meet again."
