Liu Muzhi frowned: "You may not be capable of being arbitrary, right? Don't forget, there is Wuji in the Big Three system. Once Wuji turns to Xile, then..."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "As long as I can control Ah Shou and prevent Ah Shou from threatening Wuji's status, then Wuji will definitely be on my side. How can a general win a decisive victory on the battlefield? Fatty, you are so quick Then you will know who Wuji’s true friend is.”
Liu Muzhi breathed a long sigh of relief, nodded and said: "It seems that you have already calculated everything, and you don't need me to remind you anything. Then, what are you going to do with Madam, the Xie family, and Miaoyin? What are you going to do next?" There are aristocratic families in the city who will further unite with Xile, how do you plan to respond?"
Liu Yu said calmly: "Madam is a very smart person, and so is Miaoyin. They should know my intention to kill the entire Wang Yu family without knowing the Xie family this time. To make it clear that if you don't interact with me, you are disrespecting the family." An explanation from the family, but secretly, they will still help me coordinate the relationship with the aristocratic families. Liu Tingyun will definitely try her best to win over the major aristocratic families to Liu Yu, and the most likely move is to take away Wang Mi's position as prime minister. , replace him with Xie Hun or Xi Sengshi."
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "So you have to make plans in advance. Liu Yi was very dissatisfied with Wang Mi before. After coming back this time, with the support of the aristocratic family behind him, I am afraid he will openly attack Wang Mi. And Wang Mi is timid and tactful, and he may not dare to stand up to Liu Yi. If he abandons his position and runs away, or takes the initiative to resign, you have to make preparations in advance."
Liu Yu said seriously: "I have a plan for this. When necessary, I will personally take charge of the affairs of the Secretary. The post of commander-in-chief of the Chinese and foreign armies cannot fall into the hands of Xi Le. Once I master the center and control the imperial court , you can use your Majesty’s name to issue various edicts that are beneficial to you. In this way, the situation will be completely reversed. All my concessions to Xi Le will be based on this as the bottom line, that is, I will not let him or his Agents, truly controlling the court and controlling the emperor.”
Liu Muzhi nodded: "I will take care of this matter. It's just that Xie Hun has completely turned to Liu Yi now. He seizes power from the Xie family, which is probably the next thing. We can control the court, but it is impossible to interfere with the Xie family. Regarding internal matters, if Xie Hun really replaces the wife, then the overall attitude among the aristocratic families will probably change fundamentally. As the head of the Xie family, Xie Hun's status will be completely different from what it is now. If he comes to replace Wang Mi, he will get a lot of support. He has been fighting with the army for many years, and he also made great achievements in pacifying Sun En. According to the current rules of military merit, he can also get high-ranking officials and noble titles, so we have no reason to stop him."
Liu Yu pondered for a moment and said: "It is not that there is no way to solve this matter. Xie Hun went to war with Xi Le before. He did not go to the front line, but stayed behind to supervise the transportation of grain and grass. In this western expedition, he did not make any great achievements. I Originally, it was considered that if Xie Hun made meritorious service, he would be given a post in a large state. Yizhou was originally the best choice. This would not only maintain the rules of military merit, but also separate him from Xile and stay away from the central government. Mao Zedong I originally wanted to be transferred to Jingzhou, and then cooperate with the Northern Expedition in Yangzhou, but now the plan has changed. I think Xie Hun can be transferred back to the imperial court, and he will no longer be allowed to go to war with the army. He can be made a Zhongshu Ling, or even deputy Prime Minister, but not Prime Minister."
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "I understand. In fact, there are many people in the Xie family who are eyeing the position of head. Madam is highly respected and her body is still strong. Except for Xie Hun who wants to fight, no one dares to challenge Madam, but If Xie Hun takes over as the head of the family, then cousins like Xie Dan may not be convinced. Perhaps, we can promote some other Xie family members to make contributions and gain official positions to share Xie Hun's hope."
Liu Yu laughed: "It's a very good suggestion. You can recommend any talents from the Xie family to my shogunate. By the way, Xie Hui and Fu Liang, who you mentioned before, are still in Meng. In Chang's shogunate?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, they are all still in Jingzhao Mansion now. Immediately after the Western Expedition is over, the merits of Jianyi will be recounted. All the heroes of Jianyi will have to change their official positions to titles. Meng Chang is here During this period, I also maintained order in Jiankang City and implemented your laws. My credit is not small. In addition, during Jianyi, I was responsible for the logistics of the entire army and sat in the rear. With accumulated credit, I was promoted to Shangshu Zuopushe and became Deputy Prime Minister. In this way, the title of general is an empty name, and the assistants in the shogunate can be assigned to other generals' houses openly."
Liu Yu said with satisfaction: "Yes, it seems that you have a plan for a long time, but are they willing to come? Especially after what happened this time, will children from aristocratic families like Xie Hui and Fu Liang still be willing to come to my place?" ?”
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Even Tao Yuanming can see that the competition between you and Liu Yi will become increasingly fierce and open in the future, and he will stand on your side. Xie Hui and Fu Liang are smart people, so they naturally know How to choose. If you are a member of a family who has no idea about the situation and wants to be wise and safe for the time being, you will choose a general shogunate who will not intervene in the dispute between you and Xile, such as Wuji, such as Rabbit and the others. But if you want to make achievements and gain titles with merit, If they are enterprising people, they must make a choice between you and Xi Le. When the time comes, I will give them a hint. If they really like you, they will definitely come to your shogunate to apply for a job."
Liu Yu nodded: "Very good. Recently, many talents have come to my palace. Let's do it this way. You can arrange for Xie Hui and Fu Liang to be seconded first, just in the name of dealing with the aftermath of this massacre of the palace. Ask them to make the four families Wang Yu, Huan Yin, Diao Yong, and Luo Bing have irrefutable evidence of treason. How to find witnesses and make confessions? You arrange them to do these things and test their loyalty and loyalty. ability."
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will make arrangements."
Liu Yu turned to look at the corpses of Wang Yu and others in the palace with their heads missing, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "I also want to use this incident to tell the world who will be the one who has the final say and controls everything in the Jin Dynasty from now on. Fatty, since they are guilty of treason, they must be punished publicly and beheaded again in public, and then like Huan Xuan, hang their heads in order to shock the world."
A trace of confusion flashed in Liu Muzhi's eyes: "Have you already cut off your head? Why do you want to do it again?"
Liu Yu smiled and patted Liu Muzhi on the shoulder: "Sew the head back on the neck, then take the body to the market entrance and chop it again. Revenge is revenge, execution is execution, and the number of times the head must be removed must not be less!"
