Wang Miaoyin sighed softly: "You said, last time I listened to your suggestion and planned to have a night of fun with Brother Yu in Wulongkou, and I got pregnant. Is this really good? I think about it now. It’s all because of fear, the wind and wind in that place are miserable, and there are scary monsters like the Mingyue Flying Gu that eat human bones. To be honest, I’ve had nightmares every day in the past few months, and this child always makes me feel that it’s something ominous.”
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "If you weren't in this damn place, what chance would you have had to pay homage to Duke Zhou? There are so many eyes and ears in the military camp, it's too inconvenient and dangerous. Moreover, if you hadn't given If you are so frightened, the slave slave may not be able to soften his heart."
Wang Miaoyin gritted her teeth: "This Guanggu is really a scary place. Ever since I came here, I have felt extremely uncomfortable. I always feel that there are countless ghosts crying at night. Especially that night, the Wulongkou was a trap. Killing tens of thousands of soldiers and blocking the water source, Guanggu City has long been cursed by the undead, and it must not be allowed to stay in the future."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, Shi Hu and Murong Ke killed tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians twice, which has made Guanggu so evil that it is unfit for human habitation. Even if you don't consider the feng shui issue, Guanggu is surrounded by mountains. Water, and with such a strong city wall, we even besieged it for a year before we captured it this time. If someone intends to use this to cause rebellion in the future, the land of Qingzhou will probably rebel again."
Wang Miaoyin's beautiful eyebrows frowned: "What do you mean by this? Is it possible that you want to raze this Guanggu City? You have to think clearly. The land of Qingzhou has always lacked strong cities. Although Linzi, the capital of Qi State, was large in the past, , but it is located on a plain and is easy to attack and difficult to defend. Therefore, since the Western Dynasty, Cao Yi has built a city in Guanggu for the purpose of fortification. If you level this Guanggu City now, the land of Qingzhou will be destroyed in the future. It’s hard to defend.”
Liu Muzhi said calmly: "So, among the four of them, Cao Yi, Duan Gong, Pilu Hun, and Murong Chui, which one of them defended Guanggu City and Qingzhou?"
Wang Miaoyin nodded gently: "Are you trying to say that the strength of mountains and rivers requires benevolence and people's hearts, rather than a strong city?"
Liu Muzhi said seriously: "Yes, only those foreign invaders who lack strength and want to separate themselves will rely on the strong city, thinking that they can just hide in the Guanggu strong city and drag them away. After half a year, the foreign enemies have left. Don't you know that in this way, they will annihilate themselves from the world? This Guanggu City is too small to accommodate the hundreds of thousands of people in Qingzhou. It can only protect tens of thousands of people in the protected area and abandon the people outside the city. Most people only want to protect the tens of thousands of people in the city, so obviously these tens of thousands of people usually want to be superior to hundreds of thousands of people, and they have long been alienated."
"Just like this time, our army besieged Guanggu, and the people from Qingzhou around came to help attack the city. We finally captured Guanggu because of the people's support in Qingzhou. If the people's support is lost, even if there is a strong city, there will be What’s the use?”
"As the governor of Qingzhou, I have to let everyone know that the Jin Dynasty will not abandon them and survive on their own. Like them, I will also welcome all internal and external powerful enemies at the state seat on the plains."
Wang Miaoyin smiled slightly: "This time Brother Yu is planning to kill all the Murong clan, and also eradicate powerful Han clans like the Han family. Can such a powerful person really control the people here?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Establishing prestige can only be established for a while. The Murong clan has brought trouble to the world for many years. Killing them would be a very satisfying move. Even the Xianbei people would applaud. As for the Han family, as long as they If we can find new families who obey the imperial court and divide their remaining interests, it won't cause too much trouble. What I'm really worried about is not Qingzhou, but Jiangnan."
A trace of alarm flashed in Wang Miaoyin's eyes: "Are you worried about the demon thieves and the Tiandao Alliance?"
Liu Muzhi's face was solemn: "In this battle of Nanyan, I at least proved one thing, that is, there is a more insidious and terrifying conspiracy force than Murong Chui. I don't know if this force is Doupeng, but He must be our enemy, and he has angered Jinu. He may want him to lose his mind and calmness in anger and do something radical. Now that we are not with Jinu, I am very worried about this, Jinu He is invincible on the battlefield, but in government affairs and among his comrades who regard him as brothers, he has weaknesses that can be exploited."
Wang Miaoyin gritted her teeth: "What should we do? Why don't you just ignore this Qingzhou thing for the time being and stay with Jinu to help him?"
Liu Muzhi sighed: "Qingzhou is a newly attached place. I have to give up the position for subsequent political transactions. I will definitely have to deal with it here for a period of time. In the worst case, if Jiankang can't deal with the slaves after they return to the army, The aristocratic families in the city are obstructing him and not providing him with military rations and supplies. I also need to allocate supplies from Qingzhou and Xuzhou for slaves to fight. After all, they have reasons and excuses. It can be said that the supplies were given to Liu Yi to let him resist the demon thieves. Woolen cloth."
Wang Miaoyin said sternly: "With my mother here, it won't be like this. Over the past year, she has been at the rear to ensure a continuous supply of supplies."
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "Madam is very interested in annihilating Nan Yan and the victory of the Northern Expedition, but I am afraid she is not so enthusiastic about completely annihilating the demon thieves and eradicating the Tiandao Alliance."
Wang Miaoyin's face changed: "What do you mean by this? Is my mother ignorant of the general situation and only cares about the interests of the family?"
The fat on Liu Muzhi's face twitched slightly: "Madam is a very mature female politician. Her mind and knowledge are close to the level of my husband. And the principle that your Xie family has always abided by is not loyalty or loyalty. Righteousness is not benevolence, but the way of checks and balances.”
Wang Miaoyin murmured to herself: "The way of checks and balances? You mean, my mother wants to keep the Tiandao Alliance to check and balance Brother Yu? Or even, even check and balance me?"
Liu Muzhi sighed: "I couldn't say this in front of the slave just now, but I must tell you that it is a very dangerous decision for the slave to take the road of a god and king. You have been pushing for this, but I have never Not keen, do you know why?"
Wang Miaoyin gritted her teeth: "Because he is a great hero. Even if he becomes the emperor, he must be a powerful monarch. He will not allow the aristocratic family to continue to control the world, and will even eradicate them. Cooperating with the Sima family is definitely more harmful to the aristocratic family than supporting him. Rich families are better.”
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, you can abandon your family and work hard for the slaves because of love and worship, but your mother can't. What she has to consider is the interests of the Xie family first, and the country secondly. As for the slaves, Although she knows it is right, she will definitely not support the slave's ideal, because it is beneficial to the people of the world, but it is tantamount to kicking out the Xie family's nephews and leaving them to fend for themselves. Miaoyin, you sneak back to Shining this time Before you go to the mountain, it’s best to have a good talk with your mother, this is very important.”
