The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 327 It's All Fools ([-])

The pleasant parent-child tour only lasted for half a day and ended.Although Guan Yi's work is mainly to make decisions and set directions, he rarely engages in specific work.But after all, he is a member of the prime minister's country, and just a few things that require him to make a decision are enough to keep him busy.

In the afternoon, after returning to his mansion, Ma Guo immediately sent the latest reports.

"Huh? Sun Yuanzong actually promised to give us food?"

"Yes, 200 million shi. Before Xingzong set off, the food has already been shipped."

"Well, it seems that Sun Yuanzong hopes that we can gain a firm foothold in Yongliang, and then Jin will regard my big man as a serious problem and put the main force on my big man. After that, whether it is to attack Yizhou or continue the Northern Expedition Reduced a lot of difficulty.”

"Exactly, and in my humble opinion, Da Sima, I'm afraid Wu Guo's eyes are on our Yizhou."

"Hehehe, it's okay, let him come. Speaking of it, we don't have enough strength for the time being. The next time is a new round of preparations. My big man has always been short of a seaport. He dares to attack Yizhou. I'm going to catch him in Jiaozhou."

"Exactly."

"Well, no matter what, with these 200 million shi of grain, we have completely passed the food shortage in Yongliang. Instead, what else is there?"

"There is something, there is something big, it's very strange."

"Oh?"

"Ma Chengma Yize, the left commander of the Habayashi Army, died of a sudden illness ten days ago!"

"what?!"

Before Guan Yi's Northern Expedition, many people stayed to watch the house.But the most important of them are no more than five.

The first is to stay in the governor's office to be simple and to manage government affairs.The second is Dasi Nong Mi Zhao, who is in charge of the operation of the Fuxing Society.The third is Guan Suo, Zhang Yulin.Under Guan Suo, Ma Cheng (son of Ma Chao) and Ma Bing (son of Ma Liang) respectively commanded a part of Habayashi to monitor the court.

But now Ma Cheng is dead!

"I remember that Yu Ze is only 46 years old this year, right? He is usually in good health. How could it be? Has Zuo had an autopsy? Was it homicide?"

"This is the reason for the blame. The report given by Wu after the autopsy was that he died of carbon poisoning (burning charcoal behind closed doors in winter, carbon monoxide poisoning). If this is the case, it is a pity, but it is really helpless. So Jian Wushuang did not He used Feige to pass on the news of Ji Ze's death. But when he attended Yi Ze's funeral, Wushuang felt suspicious expressions on the faces of the Ma family. So he planned to call Wu Zuo again to check, but now Jian Wushuang is looking for It’s no longer the one who made the report.”

"There must be something wrong here! Flying pigeons pass the letter to Jian Wushuang, and then find a new coroner for the autopsy!"

"Well, Da Sima, the first seven of the leftovers have passed, and they should have been buried."

"Hiss~~~ That's it." Guan Yi laughed after pulling his beard for a long time.

"Why is Da Sima laughing?"

"Hmph, it seems that our majesty is still a little bit unwilling. Yes, the prime minister has the late emperor's will, Jiang Dasima and General Fei have the prime minister's will. I am the only minister who is self-appointed. And before that, your majesty has already I have tasted the taste of monopoly...and we have been away from Chengdu for too long..."

"Da Sima means that His Majesty assassinated Yu Ze?"

"Hmph, most of your Majesty is surrounded by our people now. He has the heart but not the strength. Let me ask you, Jian Wushuang became suspicious of this because he felt that the expression of the Ma family was wrong when he attended the funeral, right? Who are they?" The expression is wrong?"

"Wu Shuang said that Yi Ze's first wife and eldest son cried to death at the funeral. But Wu Shuang himself died as an elder. That kind of crying is very different from crying when he is sad about the death of a loved one."

"So that's how it is. Such a poisonous woman, such a poisonous son!"

"Oh~~~ This subordinate understands."

What did Ma Guo understand?That is whether Ma Cheng's main wife and eldest son had any motive to kill Ma Cheng.

Ma Cheng's eldest son is Ma Heng, whose name is Boying.Not only the eldest son, but also the eldest son.Under normal circumstances, Ma Heng would be a proper third-generation Marquis.

But because of the time traveler, the situation has changed.When Guan Yi led the revival army through Jiangzhou, Ma Cheng let his second son Ma Jie board Guan Yi's boat as a kind of speculation. son rather than the eldest son.

The result was beyond expectations, Guan Yi succeeded in the first battle in Xindu, and Ma Jie made great contributions in this battle.While gaining Guan Yi's high trust, it also completely bound the Ma family and Fuxingshe together.

In addition to the title of Marquis of Xiangxiang, Ma Jie created a new title by virtue of his military exploits.And because of his military exploits, he legally obtained a tax-free quota of 500 people.Not only that, Fuxingshe's annual dividends range from as much as one billion to as few as hundreds of millions.Although the shares of the Ma family are small, they also receive millions of dividends every year—and these dividends belong to Ma Jie.

Of course, as a relatively pure general, Ma Jie has no concept of these share dividends.They haven't said they want to separate yet.So Ma Cheng is responsible for managing this huge property.

For Ma Cheng, although he did not push out the eldest son because he was not optimistic about Guan Yi, the second son is also his own son.Now that the second son has made such great achievements, and his official position has also increased, the Ma family has finally returned to the center of the power of the big man.Then the future hope of the Ma family will undoubtedly rest on Ma Jie.Well, for people in this era, the prosperity of the family far outweighs individual feelings.Therefore, Ma Cheng naturally invested all the resources of the Ma family on Ma Jie...

You said, if you were Ma Heng, what would your feelings be?

Now Ma Jie is Tinghou and Ma Cheng is Xianghou.If Ma Cheng died of illness at this time, then Ma Heng, who inherited the title of Marquis of Ma Chengyu Township, could still overwhelm Ma Jie and grab the position of Ma Family Patriarch.Thus using the identity of the owner to control the huge bonus behind Ma Jie.But what if Ma Jie made another military exploit and became a county lord?It is estimated that Ma Cheng will change his wife and make Ma Jie his heir, right?
In fact, Ma Cheng's idea of ​​changing Li Ma Jie as the heir is already very obvious.This made Ma Heng, the eldest son, and his first wife very disturbed.

And what if at this time, Liu Chan, the emperor, discovered the key point and reached out to Ma Heng secretly?

"Hmph, our Majesty is really powerful. Such a marking made him find loopholes."

"Hehehe, Da Sima, you can't defend yourself against thieves for a thousand days."

"Well, that's true. So, instead, you write a letter to Wushuang. Let Ma Heng inherit the title of Marquis of Saixiang, and the left part of Yubayashi is also handed over to Commander Ma Heng. When the capital is moved, let the left part of Yubayashi follow Go to Chang'an to exchange with the field army here."

"...The subordinate understands. The national strength of my big man has been significantly enhanced, and the way of dealing with these things really needs to be changed."

What Ma Guo said by this sentence means that since the establishment of the Three Kingdoms, the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu have very different countermeasures in dealing with political crises.

For the powerful Cao Wei, if a political opponent might launch an attack on him, then the emperor or ministers would always patiently allow the opponent to complete the preparations and launch the attack formally.In this way, although various coups and rebellions seem to be powerful, for the rulers, they can eliminate all evils.And it can also gain the upper hand in public opinion.

For example, the Three Rebellions in Huainan, the Sima family deliberately created conditions for the opponent to facilitate the launch of the political opponent.In this way, after the suppression of the rebellion, the forces loyal to the Cao family will be cut off again.

However, Shu Han's body is too small to withstand the toss.So they deal with the political crisis and never let the crisis explode.Instead, before the outbreak, only when there are some signs, we intervene in advance.

For example, Liu Bei killed Peng Yi, and Zhuge Liang abolished Li Yan, Liao Li, and Lai Min.They all deal with it preventively when the other party has not done any particularly huge and substantial harm-of course, the advantage of doing this is to prevent problems before they happen.But in fact, the hidden danger is huge: killing top-notch ones is just a temporary suppression.If the roots are not removed, something will happen eventually.

Therefore, this time Guan Yi decided to give Liu Chan a ruthless blow—my low profile is because I am cultivated, and my not destroying other people's three tribes is because I am kind.But I am a powerful minister!
"Big Sima, what does Zhongying say?"

"What happened just now is our speculation, there is no real evidence. In this way, you go to Xiping yourself and tell Zhongying our analysis. If he wants to pursue this matter, then he can go to Jane after he returns to Chengdu. Wushuang, when necessary, secretly open the autopsy. Remember, it is secretly."

"The subordinate understands. I think Zhongying will cooperate with Da Sima."
