Governor please stay

Chapter 202 Don't do stupid things, do chores later, do urgent things

Xiao Yan's eldest son is also the prince, named Xiao Tong.He is very famous among the people and is recognized as the successor of Liang Guo, but there are still two "little" problems here.

The first one is that although Xiao Yan is not young anymore, he is still in good health. Not only is he generous and fat, but he also eats little food and has been a vegetarian for a long time. At the same time, he does not participate in heavy physical labor.

So his lifespan, or life expectancy, is going to be very, very long.Unless he can retreat by himself, Xiao Tong may not be able to survive Xiao Yan.In other words, Xiao Tong is likely to be the prince for life.

The second is the accident not long ago.

Xiao Tong's mother, Ding Lingguang, passed away not long ago. During the burial, a Taoist priest told Xiao Tong: Although this land is good for your mother's rest, it is not good for the prince, but there is a way to suppress it.

So Xiao Tong buried a wax goose in this field according to the Taoist's order.At this time, Xiao Yan was no longer the person who founded Nanliang back then, and he became suspicious and jealous.Especially since Xiao Tong is still the prince, his identity is very sensitive, and any movement will cause Xiao Yan's great uneasiness.

After learning about this, Xiao Yan became suspicious of Xiao Tong, so there was a gap between the father and son, which was very unfavorable for Xiao Tong to inherit the great system.

It is precisely because of these two points that Xiao Zhengze came to seek refuge with Xiao Tong!
As a result, he didn't even enter Xiao Tong's prince's mansion at night, and he didn't even get to meet Xiao Tong, including that servant!In fact, this is also easier to understand.

Xiao Tong is now the prince, and he has no strong competitors. As long as he does nothing, he can be the emperor in peace and stability.He is not familiar with Xiao Zhengze, and brothers Xiao Zhengde and Xiao Zhengze have a very bad reputation in Jiankang City!

If Xiao Yan hadn't covered these two, their hundred lives would not be enough for execution!
Xiao Tong didn't bother to talk to Xiao Zhengze at all. If something really happened, why didn't Xiao Zhengze tell Xiao Yan?

Many things are obvious, only those who are blinded by profit will fall into the trap.Xiao Tong is not such a person, or rather, he doesn't need to intervene at all, he doesn't even want to know what Xiao Zhengze wants to say.

Left and right are just for that position!Those who have the conditions to be the emperor will fight for it, and those who have no conditions to be the emperor want to be a dragon. There is no difference between ancient and modern times. Xiao Tong doesn't like Xiao Zhengze at all.

If you don't stay here, you have your own place to stay!Xiao Zhengze, who was pissed off by Xiao Tong, decided to send someone to find other backers, so who to look for is a bit particular here.

Xiao Yan has three sons, all born to Ding Lingguang, namely the eldest son Xiao Tong, the third son Xiao Gang, and the fifth son Xiao Xu.If Xiao Tong refuses these three compatriots with one mother, the other two will not agree either.

Xiao Zhengze felt that the other two didn't need to ask. It's a trivial matter to humiliate oneself, but if Xiao Zhengde noticed it, that would be a major problem.

Among the other older sons, the second son, Xiao Zan, defected to the Northern Wei Dynasty. The fourth son, Xiao Ji, was sandwiched between the third and fifth sons.This person is not in Jiankang City now, so there is no way to contact him.

On the other hand, the sixth son Xiao Lun, who cares little about money and loves scholars, has no savings in the house, and looks a bit like Lord Mengchang, but his violent and impulsive personality is not like Xiao Yan.Xiao Zheng felt that if he wanted to find a way out, there was probably no better way out than Xiao Lun.

Sure enough, currently recuperating at home, Xiao Lun, who had been appointed by Xiao Yan as Danyang Yin and had not yet left for Danyang, immediately had a secret talk with Xiao Zhengze.But it was a secret talk, but it wasn't entirely true, because Xiao Lun had a handsome young staff member next to him!

This person seemed to be Xiao Lun's mastermind, and he seemed a bit difficult to deal with.

In the secret room of the Prince's Mansion of Shaoling County (Xiao Lun's title), Xiao Lun, who looked young, burly and strong, stared calmly at Xiao Zhengze, whose body had been hollowed out for a long time because of drinking, and neither of them spoke.

"Brother Huang, who is this?"

Xiao Zhengze was a little unhappy, the other party actually had the mastermind by his side, it was obvious that he couldn't trust himself!However, Xiao Zhengze restrained his temper when he asked for help from others.

"This is Fu Qi, named Jingping, from Lingzhou in the north, and joined the army on the march of the king."

Xiao Lun nodded slightly, introduced a sentence, and then there was nothing else.Although he had received Xiao Zhengze, just like Xiao Tong, Xiao Lun did not like to see bugs like Xiao Zhengze.If it wasn't for Fu Qi's suggestion, Xiao Lun would be the same as Xiao Tong, too lazy to talk to each other.

Xiao Zhengze revealed all of Xiao Zhengde's plans, and emphasized that the other party was likely to use Liu Yishou's troops to rebel. Xiao Lun and Fu Qi looked at each other, shocked by Xiao Zhengde's audacity.

Uh, they were not shocked by why Xiao Zhengde colluded with the northerners, and even recognized a completely unrelated person as a "cousin". Dare to do something!
These two people were shocked by Xiao Zhengde's whimsy!

Even if the troops under Liu Yishou's command were arranged in Jiangbei, with just this few people, could they be able to change the dynasty?

You know, pulling Xiao Yan off the horse, this person may barely try, but if you think that this number of people can help him Xiao Zhengde to the throne, wouldn't you be thinking too much!

As long as there is a plate of pickles, you can't be so drunk, right?
Seeing Fu Qi winking at him, Xiao Lun said seriously: "This king already knows about this matter, and we will never mention this matter to anyone. Xiao Zhengde is cunning, you should pay more attention to your own safety, Don't come here again, so as not to be noticed by him."

Xiao Lun issued an order to evict guests, and then there was no more!

Xiao Zhengze came here full of joy, unexpectedly got such a lonely result, and cursed Xiao Yan's son in his heart as stupid as a pig!He bowed his hands and said goodbye with embarrassment, and punched and kicked his servants as soon as he went out.

On the other side, after Xiao Zhengze left, Xiao Lun breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Fu Qi eagerly, "Sir, how should we deal with this matter? Should we report Xiao Zhengde to the emperor, or pretend we don't know anything?" ?”

Immediately stating two options that had to be ruled out, Fu Qi lamented in his heart, among these sons of Xiao Yan, every one of them was indeed a dou who could not be supported.

"Wei State was in chaos, and there were countless people attached to our Liang State. There are both risks and opportunities here. The kings of the border towns recruited and surrendered many rebels. Isn't the Yang family an example? There are so many people. The princes of the Xiao clan, many of the songs they brought were swallowed up by the princes of the Xiao clan who released them."

This is true, Xiao Lun himself likes to raise dead soldiers, and the number of followers under his command is frightening.

What Xiao Zhengde did was just that Xiao Lun wanted to do it, but he didn't dare to do it, and felt that he did something meaningless.After all, as long as Xiao Tong survives, the next Liang Emperor will always be Xiao Tong!

This one has taken too much lead in the "war" for the throne, and his absolute advantage is so great that he doesn't need to play tricks on the princes behind.

"Having said so much, what are we going to do!"

Xiao Lun was in a hurry. He was an impatient person, and he was calm and composed in front of Xiao Zhengze before, all pretending.

"Xiao Zhengde's treacherous conspiracy, we can solve it with Yang's plan! Your Highness, among the Xiao family's children, there are not many princes who can lead soldiers, and even fewer princes!

No matter how powerful Liu Yishou is, his surname is not Xiao after all, and Xiao Zhengde is ignorant, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

As long as this Liu Yishou is not allowed to vote for Xiao Zhengde, His Highness will have the advantage of leading troops, and sooner or later he will come to the fore.As for Liu Yishou, he doesn't necessarily have to be loyal to His Highness, does he?As long as he becomes a subject of Liang Guo, then Xiao Zhengde's conspiracy will be self-defeating. "

The truth is this, but according to Xiao Zhengze, Xiao Zhengde's "secret weapon" is very powerful, and Xiao Lun can't come up with the corresponding bargaining chips to counter it.

The reason why human nature is very important is that it is an objective law widely recognized by most people.

Fu Qi frowned slightly, and finally heaved a long sigh: "Attack the other's shield with the other's spear, Your Highness will enter the palace to face the saint tomorrow."

Why did Xiao Lun stop Xiao Zhengde?Because Xiao Zhengde thought he was the prince, and in Xiao Yan's heart, he was also the prince who had been deposed!

The abolished prince recruited foreign aid to seek rebellion. As long as the prince is involved in this matter, he must take it seriously!If you muddy the water, you can catch fish.Xiao Tong didn't want to touch the fish, but Xiao Lun felt that in this round, it didn't seem to be a bad thing to touch the fish.

"Your Highness, I will face you tomorrow. Don't say it so directly, let alone mention that Liu Yishou. Just say that the situation in Qingxu is complicated and treacherous. You want to lead troops to Xuzhou and prepare to take Yang Kan into Liang."

Lest something bad happen to Xiao Lun, Fu Qi added.

Xiao Lun slapped his head and suddenly realized: "Thanks to your reminder, I originally wanted to directly say that Liu Yishou would be my son-in-law!"

"By the way, Your Highness, let Dai Zigao accompany me to cross the river together. Tomorrow, Your Highness will make a premise to Your Majesty that Chen Qingzhi's Northern Expedition has been victorious, and it is best to send some people to work. I will go forward with Dai Zigao as an entourage. When the time comes Play by ear."

Fu Qi said in a deep voice.

Dai Zigao, the number one swordsman in the palace, has superb martial arts skills and is proficient in assassination techniques. Fu Qi plans to make two-handed preparations.

"You are as careful as a silk thread, and you are extremely resourceful. I leave this matter to you. I am very relieved, hahahahahaha!"

Xiao Lun laughed without any image, his appearance looked very rude.

……

Liu Yishou took the army under his command and his own family members and sailed up the Jishui River by boat. When they reached the Zhongchuanshui River, they diverted to the south and went down to the lakeside at the end of the river, where they set up camp.

This unnamed lake has beautiful scenery and is an important water source north of Mount Tai, but for some reason, the name cannot be found on the map.

"This seems to be the upper reaches of Wenshui."

After Yuan Shikang took people around for a while, he came back and told Liu Yishou that there was a river nearby that connected to Wenshui, and the upper reaches came from Dongping County, which was the usual way.

From Dongping Lake in Dongping County to Taishan County along the water, this road is the usual road. In order to hide their whereabouts, Liu Yishou and the others deliberately diverted to the south on Jishui.

However, it was okay to hide their whereabouts before, but from now on, even if the people of Taishan Yangshi did not leave the gate, they would probably know from other channels that such a large army had gone south from Jinan County to Taishan County.

"Pass down the order and show the banner of the imperial court's forbidden army! If you encounter anyone blocking the way, you will be arrested as a remnant party of Yang Kan and punished as a crime of treason."

Liu Yishou issued a murderous order.The army went south along the river, and after several days of marching, they arrived at the first stop in Taishan County, which was Boping City on the north bank of Wenshui!This is where the county seat of Taishan County is located.

To the north is Fenggao County, which is already at the foot of Mount Tai, hence the name Fenggao.To the south is Juping, guarding the gate of Taishan County, and to the west is Dongping County.

Liu Yishou led the troops this time with confidence, knowing that no one in Taishan County would dare to do anything to him.If not, the path he took would be very aggrieved in the fight, and the troops would not be able to deploy at all.

At this moment, the gate of Boping City was wide open, the prefect of Taishan County, and the representatives of local wealthy families were waiting respectfully outside the gate for Liu Yishou and them to enter the city, without the slightest intention of resisting.

Sure enough, the imperial edict given by Yuan Ziyou is still useful, but I don't know how long it can last.If Chen Qingzhi breaks through Xingyang, this thing will probably become a piece of waste paper.

As soon as he entered the city, Liu Yishou let his army take over the city defense, and then he issued an order that made everyone dumbfounded.

All the members of the Taishan Yang family were arrested and put in prison.Regardless of direct lineage or offshoot, regardless of men, women, young or old, no matter which lineage they are in, they are all sent to prison for treason.

The reason he gave was that Yang Kan led troops to rebel and besieged Yanzhou City, which was an unforgivable crime.In Taishan County, there may still be many Yang Kan's henchmen, hiding in the dark, secretly supporting Yang Kan!

Among them, members of the Yang family are the most suspected!
The military situation is urgent, like fighting a fire.Now there is no time and energy to distinguish among the members of the Yang family, who is Yang Kan's internal support, and who is against him.

So simply put all the members of the Yang family in prison. If this is the case, there will be no people who support Yang Kan!After the imperial court's forbidden army, um, the team under Liu Yishou's command wiped out Yang Kan, they would naturally have time to slowly investigate the problems of the Yang clan.

For a time, chickens and dogs were flying around in Boping City, and the Yang family was the leading big family in Taishan County, with countless people.Although Liu Yishou was very careful, he never let the soldiers smash, loot, rape or kill anyone.

But people of the Yang family, as long as they are related, will be imprisoned without exception, and they will not listen to any explanation at all!

……

In the backyard of the Yamen in Boping Mansion, Wang Wei looked at Liu Yishou helplessly and said, "My lord, this can't be done. The Yang family has a good reputation here. Compared with Dongping County, it is considered a good family. Don't we Do you really want to splash dirty water?"

The current problems of the Yang family, except for the rebellion, seem to be common to the aristocratic families, and it is not worth mentioning on the stage at all.Liu Yishou played very simply and rudely this time. Although the effect was remarkable, there were a lot of troubles in the follow-up, which was not at all like his previous style.

"Don't do stupid things, postpone miscellaneous things, and do urgent things. Now let the news out, look at Yang Dun in Yanzhou City, and Yang Kan who besieged Yanzhou, who will send someone to find us.

Since it is not clear how the people of the Yang family are singing, then it is enough to catch everyone in one go.Yu Jin, Yu Wentai and others have already searched and arrested members of the Yang family in various cities in Taishan County, and I believe that Yang Kan will also make movements. "

Liu Yishou really wants to know what kind of tricks the people from the Taishan Yang clan are playing.Yang Kan has been attacking Yanzhou City for so long and can't take it down.

There must be ghosts here!
