Huan Xiu smiled slightly: "Liu Canjun, don't be polite. With the great contributions you have made to the Jin Dynasty over the years, let alone the internal history of Pengcheng, you should be appointed as the general of the town army and the governor of Yuzhou. It's a pity. You have been burdened by Liu Laozhi's secret betrayal. The imperial court has rules and regulations, and rewards and punishments must be clearly defined. Therefore, I can only give you this position for the time being. Mr. Xianggong asked Diao Sima to come here this time, and he also wants to bring you a message. , work hard from now on, and you will be high-ranking officials, famous ministers and generals, it won’t be a problem!”
Liu Yu said with a smile: "That all depends on the support of my father-in-law and the commander-in-chief. The general will do his best!"
Huan Xiu nodded with satisfaction, stepped forward, and lowered his voice: "My lord, I have one more thing to ask you. I must ask you in person. Today, the saint is physically disabled, bedridden, cannot even speak, and does not know whether he is warm or cold. , the officials of Qin Tianjian reported that the main star is dim and the purple micro is unstable, which is a sign that the leader is weak and the minister is strong, and the country changes its owner. This is the will of God and cannot be violated by human power. If the strong leader continues to support the weak leader, God will bring disaster. The disaster that flooded Jiankang a few days ago is clear evidence of this."
Liu Yu's expression changed and he said in surprise: "Commander, don't you dare say such nonsense, you are..."
Huan Xiu waved his hand to stop Liu Yu's words: "These words are indeed treasonous, but these are extraordinary times. You and I are in troubled times. We join the army to serve the country for the sake of the people of the world. If the Lord is incompetent, he can't even speak for himself. No, it will become a tool for ambitious people to manipulate. Didn’t the previous Sima Yuanxian Rebellion just use the emperor’s banner to do all kinds of illegal things?!”
Liu Yu's brows were still furrowed: "However, Sima Yuanxian has already been executed. Now that Mr. Huan is in power, it is time for us to work together and make achievements, so why bother..."
Huan Xiu said with a smile: "Liu Canjun, you don't know something. The bad guys and careerists in this world always need some status and excuses if they want to start an army and cause chaos. Just like Sima Yuanxian, he just used the name In the name of the emperor, he emptied his power and committed heinous crimes. Now that Huan Xianggong has killed Yuan Xian and his party and has come to Beijing to assist the government, some people are spreading the idea that Huan Xianggong also wants to be Sima Yuanxian's second best, so that Huan Xianggong My husband is so sincere, but he has no choice but to leave Jiankang and go out to Zhenguzi. I will ask for the Northern Expedition to show my true feelings."
At this point, his eyes sparkled with tears and he was almost crying.
Liu Yu felt sick in his heart and secretly thought that your acting skills were something I could do thirty years ago when I cheated you into eating sweets. But he also pretended to be indignant and said in a deep voice: "People's words are terrible, always There are so many guys who are both incompetent and jealous of talented people. It’s really disgusting. Mr. Huan should find these villains who spread rumors and kill them as a warning to others. We, the soldiers, are willing to obey your orders!"
Huan Xiu sighed: "There is no way to solve such rumors by killing. A weak leader and strong ministers have always been the way to chaos in the country. The reason why the Jin Dynasty has always been in Jiangnan and done nothing is because there is no strong monarch. To control the ministers and raise troops for the Northern Expedition, Liu participated in the Northern Expedition many times and fought for many years, so he should have the most experience."
Liu Yu sighed: "It's because there are evil organizations like the Mafia that are always holding back, so many good opportunities are lost in vain. Thanks to Mr. Huan, he eradicated this organization together with Sima Yuanxian in one fell swoop. I think in the future , I won’t be held back by others anymore. Since Mr. Huan is interested in the Northern Expedition, I am willing to be the vanguard and regain the lost territory for the Jin Dynasty!"
Huan Xiu smiled slightly: "Liu Canjun is extremely loyal and brave, but one must obey the destiny. As I said just now, the officials of Qin Tianjian have made it clear that now the leader is weak and the ministers are strong, and the guest star offends Ziwei. The Jin Dynasty is exhausted. After all, Sima Yuanxian tried to recreate the Rebellion of the Eight Kings and the clan chaos, but we eradicated it. His father, Sima Daozi, also tried to collude with the rebellious party and start another rebellion on the way to exile, and was sentenced to death by the court. But others The ambitious people are still making troubles. Just the day before yesterday, Yang Quanqi's old troops in Xiangyang and Xinye governor Yu Zhi revolted. Now Jingzhou governor Huan Shikang is suppressing the rebellion. This shows that the internal affairs of the Jin Dynasty want to use the There are many people who stir up trouble under the emperor's banner. Only when Mr. Huan takes over the throne can we calm down the internal affairs and prevent anyone from taking advantage of them!"
Liu Yu's brows were furrowed tightly. After a long time, he finally said: "Originally, a person is based on loyalty. He is in the Jin Dynasty and has received the country's favor in his life. He should repay the king. But over the years, our soldiers have encountered There have been too many acts of national traitors who committed rebellion under the banner of the king, and I myself have been deeply affected by it. I have been thinking about it for a while, for Sima Yuanxian, who used the banner of the emperor to create the Tao of the Heavenly Master. Is it really necessary to serve the thieves in the rebellion? The world should always be won by the virtuous and capable. Back then, the Sima clan used conspiracy to seize the world. This has finally met its retribution in future generations. Perhaps, it is time to correct this mistake. ”
Huan Xiu's face lit up with joy: "So, does Liu Canjun agree to Huan Xianggong's acceptance of Zen and his change of court?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "When we protect the country and the people, we are not protecting the emperor of a family. If the emperor cannot protect himself, how can he protect the people of the world? In the past, when the Jin Dynasty traveled south, there were many vassal towns all over the country, and we needed an emperor. They are nominally co-owners, so we must jointly establish the Sima Emperor. For hundreds of years, the emperor has been a puppet. In private, the aristocratic families fought for power and profit, and the Northern Expedition repeatedly failed. Such days can no longer continue. To protect the people of the world and complete the feat of the Northern Expedition, we need A strong emperor will do, and in today's world, is there anyone more suitable than Xianggong Huan? If anyone refuses to accept it, I, Liu Yu, will be the first to kill him!"
Huan Xiu laughed loudly, took Liu Yu's hand, and held it tightly: "If Liu Gong says it's okay, then it will be okay. Mr. Huan is waiting for your words."
Liu Yu pretended to be excited and said: "I have been waiting for this day for a long time. I will go back now to persuade you to come in!"
Huan Xiu smiled and waved his hand: "Liu Canjun, don't be so hasty. You are a military general. You don't need to talk to governors and civil servants from all over the country to persuade people to join. All I need is that you follow me back to Jiankang this time to report on your duties against the monster thieves." Please express your absolute support to Xianggong Huan, and Xianggong Huan will definitely remember your support. how?"
Liu Yu said without thinking: "I can't ask for it, when will we set off?!"
Huan Xiu smiled and pointed outside the tent: "Now!"
