Dajing Sun and Moon

Chapter 70
The post of prefectural pastor originated from the previous generation. Dajing abolished it, changed it and made it full-time governor.

The shepherd of the state, on behalf of the emperor, used to shepherd and hunt Kyushu.

Moreover, Zhou Mu is different from the governor who held the power of supervision in ancient times. As the head of a state, he has military, political and financial powers in one body, and he can be called a "false emperor".

If the governor is no longer useful, the land of a state will immediately become a state within a state, and will no longer be under the control of Taikang.

After a long silence, Fang Chu glanced at Sun Fengwei, put down the Muye Tianmu teacup, and said slowly: "If this bureaucrat succeeds, the situation in Youyan may be completely out of control."

Yang Zhong frowned, stared at Sun Fengwei, and said with burning eyes: "I don't know how Master Left Behind will reply to that person?"

Sun Fengwei's eyes dimmed, and she sighed softly: "I don't know how my father replied to Fengwei, I only know that during that time he didn't think about food and drink, couldn't swallow, looked haggard and exhausted, not only turned down all the invitations, but also declined all invitations. Visiting distinguished guests."

Liu Yu and Wei Boyu looked at each other, and they both saw the seriousness of the matter. Liu Yu glanced at Xia Houchun, and subconsciously asked, "What do you think, Your Highness?"

Everyone's eyes turned, Xia Houchun's eyes were gloomy, he rubbed the white-glazed pottery pot, the purple sand was running across the table, the leaves in the Tianmu teacup were floating, and the tea silk was rolled up, like a floating oar, ups and downs.

He stood up and looked to the northeast, towards Youyan.

After pondering for a while, he replied indifferently: "Your Majesty is still here, how can you let Xiao Xiao make trouble."

It's a bureaucratic thing, and this is something I know too, Fang Chu's face twitched, Sun Fengwei frowned slightly, and risked the risk of family and family annihilation to tell this matter, but it's not a word game with you.

After Wei Boyu glanced at Sun Fengwei, he said to Xia Houchun in a deep voice: "Since Sun Liushou has tossed and turned, he must have never surrendered to the enemy. Besides, even if Youyan is corrupt, don't worry too much. He has Zhang Ziji, I set up the wall ladder Since the swallow thief wants to 'join vertically', we shall break it by 'connecting horizontally'."

Fang Chu nodded when he heard the words, and said with a smile to Liu Yu: "Since Mrs. Liu is willing to assist His Highness to go north, why don't you take out a nomination certificate, instead of looking for a distance, it is better to take the Dongyan leader first."

Xia Houchun turned around suddenly, shook his head resolutely with a serious face, and vetoed the proposal: "No!"

The pavilion was stunned for a moment, Yang Zhong got up, and said in a low voice: "This opportunity must not be lost, and if it is lost, it will never come again. Your Highness, why don't you use a knife to kill people, and use Liu's power to cut off the tentacles of the Dongyan army, and wait for him to sit in the city of sorrow and be imprisoned?" At that time, it will be born out of the sky again to win its heart, and only then will it receive miraculous effects."

The rest of the faces were equally moved, even Liu Yu agreed, but Sun Fengwei kept her mouth shut.

She stood up and bowed to Xia Houchun with fists in her hands, showing her heroic posture, and the neckline embroidered with silver brocade thread was gathered up. The early spring has not yet come, and the ice in the lake in the pavilion has not yet melted.

Breathing out a breath of cold air, the ice and fog gathered in an instant, and she said in a solemn voice, "What Uncle Fang Shi said is not feasible, Feng Wei disagrees."

He has always loved this nephew very much, and he didn't care about some conflicts. Hearing this rebuttal, he couldn't help but laugh, and said helplessly: "Then what does my niece think?"

Sun Fengwei rolled her eyes and looked at Xia Houchun. Seeing that he agreed, she pondered for a while and said:
"Now Dajing is in trouble, and there is Yunxiao in the north who has planned for a long time, and the trend of going south to drink horses is aggressive. The disaster is almost second only to the chaos of party struggle."

Hearing that it was Xiao Dang's natal family again, Wei Boyu's expression darkened, and he said in a cold voice, "I only hate that Wei's two fists are hard to beat with four hands, otherwise the Yunxiao bandit barbarian will come and go."

Sun Fengwei turned her eyes, glanced at the dark blue sky in the south, and said worriedly:
"Although the former Yan was destroyed, the remnants of the remaining evils have become my confidant's troubles. Apart from staring at our Jiangnan Dao, they actually have the intention of making a comeback. If you count the demons and ghosts fishing in troubled waters, my Dajing may be attacked by the north and the south. disaster."

She sighed softly, and persuaded: "So, even if Dong Yanguo has the heart of disobedience, the imperial court can't immediately surrender the thunder, in case there is a sudden disaster, which will bring disaster to Chi Yu."

Xia Houchun sighed secretly, and added: "That's right, the Dongyan Rebellion did not happen in a short period of time, and the rescue cannot be accomplished overnight, or you will shoot yourself in the foot with a rock, and the loss outweighs the gain."

There is no need to mobilize the crowd, Liu Yu's face softened. Although Liu's intention of "contributing to the effect", he had to see hope before making a plan. If after they ran out of money and food, this one finally failed. Lost money.

After everyone thought for a while, they came back to their senses. Fang Chu tapped on the marble table lightly, and there was a crisp sound. He mused: "Don't act too hastily, but you can't ignore it, or else it will be true that there is no one in the court?"

Wei Boyu frowned. He came from a supervisory censor. Although he had been in charge of the Ministry of Punishment for less than half a year, he still insisted on the way of accountability. After thinking for a while, he said:
"Why don't you ask the center to send an observer to investigate Shen Ling's disobedience in the name of 'observation and inspection'."

Yang Zhong couldn't help but interject, he is a soldier and eats food, so he has the most right to speak, and he has been cautious just now, because he didn't want the prince to completely hate himself.

He said cautiously: "According to Yang, since Mr. Shen dared to negotiate terms with Sun Liushou, I'm afraid he has a lot of confidence."

One word awakens the dreamer, and the people in the field change color.

It's fine if the Dongyan army mutinies and gets out of control. After all, there are only 2 people, and it's really not enough in front of the hundreds of thousands of Dajing guards, towns, and forbidden troops. If you want to rebel, you can't get out of Youyan.

But here is the big deal, how can a mere frontier general have the right to let Tang Tangdong stay behind and restless, but what about the governor of a state?

A gloomy look flashed across Xia Houchun's face, and he muttered to himself, "You said just now that he would echo Zhaoyi Army from afar?"

He turned around slowly, looked at the Qianqiu Temple, and squinted his eyes.

Before leaving, the commander-in-chief of the Zhaoyi Army was still playing chess.

The name of the chess game is called, ambush on all sides.

The geographical situation of Youyan flashed across his mind, and he murmured to himself: "When the stars of the Ji Xing scattered into You, they became the territory of Yan."

His heart moved, and he raised his eyebrows and said: "The Dongyan Army is stationed in Yanjing City, and it is under the jurisdiction of the governor of Youzhou. Now that the Dongyan Army has changed, I don't know how much the governor of Youzhou knows."

Sun Fengwei's face moved, and she snorted coldly: "The Eastern Yan army must have colluded with the remnants of the former Yan."

Fang Chu's face changed slightly. The word "remnants of former Yan" was placed on Jiangnan Road, and it may be a guide to Yan's spies and killers, but in the land of Youyan, it also includes those who obeyed and surrendered.

And although Sun Fengwei did not expressly say this, it is self-evident who the "remnants of the former Yan" refers to. Is this a certainty?
He couldn't believe it and said: "Your Highness is saying that the disobedience of the Dongyan army is probably just a cover, and it is actually a rebellion by the governor of Youzhou?"

Liu Yu got up abruptly, once the Youyan war started, it would definitely affect the foundation of the Liu family, so he couldn't help being nervous, but he heard his tone cold and snorted coldly:

"The matter has come to this point, and it has long been clear. No wonder the left-behind adults are trembling. After all, the safety of nearly a million people in two states and three places is involved. How dare you be negligent."

On the other hand, Wei Boyu frowned, and the authorities were confused by the onlookers. Although he was straight-hearted, it didn't mean he was stupid. After glancing at Sun Fengwei, he considered his tone and said:
"As far as Wei knows, the current governor of Youzhou is named Qiu Ye. This person has always been known for his honesty and courage. Although he has the same origin as Yin Qiuyin of Nanyan Danyang, he pursues the Confucian ritual of loyalty to the emperor, and he also abides by simplicity in administration. The way to empower.

This person is not only a loyal minister, but also loves the people like a son. If this person also has the heart of disobedience, it means that my Dajing is really about to fall. "

He raised his eyes to look at Xia Houchun, and said in a concentrated voice: "Wei believes that there is no real evidence to prove that the governor of Youzhou conspired against him. We are thousands of miles away, so we should not draw such inferences blindly."

Sun Fengwei's eyes flickered, and after a few flashes, she said with a sweet smile: "Master Wei said that the little girl made up nonsense and deliberately framed Mr. Qiu?"

Who is Wei Boyu? He pointed at Emperor Jing's nose in the Jinluan Hall and cursed and scolded him. How could he have the same knowledge about this girl from the Eastern Capital.

After he glanced at Sun Fengwei, he said in a low voice: "Your Highness also said that the important affairs of the country are enshrined in the army. The Dongyan army wields weapons of war and practices the way of killing and extinction. They should not move lightly, let alone rashly."

He said to Xia Houchun in a deep voice: "How to make a decision, please Your Highness be careful."

Among these people, the rest of them didn't know what Xia Houchun was thinking, but what Wei Boyu said was for the sake of the country and the people, he nodded lightly: "Master Wei is loyal to the monarch and the country, and this Palace deeply understands it."

Damn, why bring that up.

Wei Boyu's face froze, and he twisted his neck stiffly, but he still couldn't help but add: "The most important thing about your Highness's trip is 'stability', and you must not make any big moves."

With complex eyes, he sighed: "After all, a saint has no time, and evildoers are rampant. There are still many things that need to be resolved by His Highness."

Seeing that this matter was getting serious, Sun Fengwei couldn't help but said: "Could it be that His Highness just allows the Dongyan Army to act recklessly?"

Xia Houchun turned around, and after pondering for a while, he said slowly: "There is a saying in the art of war, the first is to attack the army, the second is to attack the enemy, and then to attack the army, and the siege of the city is the most unacceptable. Yan is not good at fighting with weapons."

He looked at Sun Fengwei and praised: "Miss Sun's message, Xiahou will keep it in mind, but as the servant said, the situation in Youyan is complicated, you can't cut it at random, you need to plan it slowly."

In short, the young master does not want to fight now, but our prince likes peace.

As soon as these words came out, Wei Boyu's face softened slightly, Fang Chu frowned, and Liu Yu nodded slightly, deeply convinced.

As for our Miss Sun, I didn't say much.

Xia Houchun clapped his palms and smiled, "Everyone, let's discuss how to subdue others without fighting."

Liu Yu pursed his mouth, didn't pay his salary, and wanted to prostitute for free, you should feel at ease.

Wei Boyu rubbed his shriveled stomach, frowned, and looked shy, "Your Highness, in my opinion, we might as well talk while eating."

The host, Fang Chu, laughed loudly and said, "It's Fang who neglected everyone. Come, this way please."

He stretched out his hand to invite, and the cave lake split open, unexpectedly there was a hole in the sky.

Xia Houchun praised: "The sun and the moon are hidden in the pot, and the universe is contained in the cave. What a master Fang!"
