Chapter 959 (2/2)
”Why? The idea of the minister was obviously contrary to the will of the court. My wife should understand that I will not surrender my military power. ”
”I know that I have never wanted to let my uncle hand over the military power. Those who are good at fighting should always stand on the battlefield, and die on the battlefield, instead of being muddled and hollowed out by wine and lust. That's the sorrow of those who are good at war, and also the loss of the court. ”
Accident!
Big accident!Is this the turning point for the northwest army?
Mr. Dou asked cautiously, ”does your mother support Lord Lu to continue to control the northwest army?”
Gu Jiu laughed and said, ”the Duke of Lu and his son can continue to command the northwest army, but they can't be in the northwest.”
I can't understand that.
The northwest army is not in the northwest. Where can we go?
”What kind of place is Xiliang?” Gu Jiu asks suddenly.
Among the three present, only Mr. Dou has been to Xiliang city.
He pondered and said: ”the King City of Xiliang is rich, but the people in Xiliang are poor.”
There are hundreds of tribes in the West. To the west of the northwest and to the south, I heard that local nobles paved the ground with gold and decorated their houses with gold. There is gold everywhere, and the gold mine is exposed on the surface and mined at will. ”
”Is there really such a place? I have never heard of it. ” Mr. Dou looked surprised.
Gu Jiu said with a smile: ”I heard that place is called poison.”
”Poison?” Mr. Dou's brain suddenly turned, ”Wei Chen seems to have seen the description of poison in a miscellaneous book. Is it true that gold is everywhere?”
”Find their royal city, and you will find that the whole city is made of gold. What's more, the people are docile. As long as the royal family is overthrown, the people will willingly submit to the new master. ”
Mr. Dou got excited, ”Wei Chen went back to look for information about the poisoning.”
The preparation is basically completed, Gu Jiu looks at Pei Meng, ”what's your idea?”
Pei Meng's face was serious, ”the empress said so much, it must have profound meaning. Please tell me clearly
Gu Jiu clapped his hands, and soon four came to the flower hall with a map.
Hang the map on the movable board and fix the four corners.
The whole Zhou Dynasty, the whole western regions, can be seen at a glance on the map.
Mr. Dou's eyes are straight.
Pei Meng suddenly stood up and rushed to the map.
”How could the imperial court have such a clear map? It even includes the western regions. ”
Gu Jiu was full of pride, ”the caravan has been operating in Xiliang city for many years, and has worked hard to draw a topographic map of the western regions. And it took a lot of hard work to bring it back. ”
Pei Meng gnawed his teeth. He knew that empress Gu chose to cooperate with the northwest army for more than a simple purpose.
Unexpectedly, the people who secretly poked and poked in the caravan secretly drew a map of the western regions.
Pei Meng straightforwardly asked, ”Beirong sent troops to the south, followed by Xiliang soldiers. Is this a matter of Niang's writing?”
”No! Although the palace can judge the general situation, it can not affect the decisions of the court of Beirong and the king of Xiliang. Uncle overestimates this palace too much. ”
”Your mother is too modest! No hope bald donkey, but a qualified chess piece. If your mother has orders, he will not give any discount. ”
”On behalf of hopeless master, I thank you for your attention. Xiliang troops, there are signs. In those years, through trade, we plundered a lot of money from Xiliang. People with lofty ideals in Xiliang have already realized that Dazhou is a wolf, a tiger and a leopard, and the trade relationship with Dazhou must be separated. Beirong sent troops to the south, and Xiliang's main fighting faction took the opportunity to get to the top. It was sooner or later that Xiliang sent troops to cooperate with Beirong. This situation was expected by Mr. Tong Dou of marquis Lu. Therefore, the northwest army was able to send troops in time to prevent the confluence of Xiliang and Beirong. ”
Pei Meng ha ha a smile, ”women don't let men, Minister willing to bow down.”
Gu Jiu waved his hand, ”this palace is just an afterthought. It can't compare with your father and son in the situation, but you can see the whole situation.”
Mr. Dou stared at the map and pondered for a long time, ”does Niang want the northwest army to continue to the west?”
Gu Jiu stood up and went to the map.
”People all say that Lu Hou and his son are ambitious and will fight the imperial army one day. Whatever the result, it will be a disaster for Zhou. It must be that Marquis Lu and his uncle are ready to fight against the imperial court. I'm not wrong. ”
Pei Meng was silent and silent.
Mr. Dou was sweating and explained pale, ”misunderstandings, all misunderstandings. You can't listen to villains. ”
Gu Jiu picks eyebrow a smile, ”no one will be willing to hand over the power, this palace understands. The northwest army was a big problem for the imperial court, which made several emperors unable to sleep at night. If we go on like this, with the strength of the northwest army, we will one day take the step of separating the northwest. Therefore, the purpose of this palace's letter and appointment is to avoid the situation from developing to this stage. ”
Pei Meng sternly asked: ”how to avoid it? Let our father and son hand over the military power and return to Beijing to provide for the aged. The court took the opportunity to dismember the northwest army and kill our father and son's trusted generals? ”
”This is the worst way to go!”
Gu Jiu solemnly said: ”only those stupid courtiers who have no brain and only know how to stare at a acre of land can adopt the means mentioned by uncle. Step by step, anyone with blood will rebel with weapons. Several dynasties, more or less, encountered similar problems.
In the end, without exception, the national strength of the dynasty was weakened, and the dynasty went from prosperity to decline and finally was destroyed. After the establishment of a new dynasty, we should continue to follow the old road of the former dynasty. It seems that we can not find a second way out. However, our palace did not believe in evil. After years of planning with his majesty, we finally found a second way for the great Zhou Dynasty, which was also the way for the northwest army to survive. ””What way?” Mr. Dou asked Pei Meng the core of today's conversation.
Gu Jiu pointed to the western regions on the map, ”the court paid for food and weapons, and the day the northwest army destroyed Xiliang was the day when the court made Marquis Lu king.”. The way out for the king and his son is to seal up your father and son. ”
