Guo Shao usurped the throne, and the year was in Jiwei... On the edge of the Yangtze River, a man on a black-sailed boat stretched his neck and looked at a stone tablet and recited.
Half of the stone was in the mud on the riverside, half exposed outside, appearing and disappearing under the erosion of the water waves.
The people in the boat on the river saw a sudden stone by the river, and curiously took a special look.
On the road by the river, occasionally passersby stop to see the strange things.
I don’t know how long this stone has been here, nor how many people have seen it, but no one has paid attention to it.People in the world are very proactive in seeing it, and it is difficult to meddle in other people's business.
The person who looked at the black-sailed boat said: There is also a goat carved on it, with two horns, what does it mean?
An old man in the cabin said in the voice of: This year is the Year of the Sheep.Rowing, leave quickly!
The strange man also jumped off the bow and got into the cabin.The man in short clothes with a slals shaking his squats on the bow said: This year is exactly the Year of the Sheep. Is the matter on the monument this year or twelve years later?
The old man said in his voice: Stupid!Twelve years later, are the stems and branches still Jiwei?
The black-sailed boat slowly floated on the vast river surface in the sound of oars and chats.
At this moment, a team of horse soldiers came from the avenue.
Several people leading the donkey cart on the road hurriedly led the car to the side of the road and stopped to watch.
A man with a very tall figure in front of the horse soldier looked very terrifying. Behind him, all the cavalry were full of armored horses, and feathers were inserted on his head. As the war horses surging, a piece of feathers were shaking, like reed flowers in the wind.
There was a group of servants behind him who were not that glamorous.
When passers-by saw this scene, they almost ran away.
The strong man was Shi Yanchao. His men happened to be stationed on the riverside. When he heard the scout's report, he realized that there was such a thing here.
Shi Yanchao led his crowd to the stone, and jumped off the horse and walked to the riverside, watching the words on the stone.
The troops were silent, and no one said anything.
Shi Yanchao narrowed his eyes and looked at it for a long time.
A general next to him asked: General, how do you deal with this thing?
Shi Yanchao said: Use something to cover it up, leave two people to watch, and send someone to Jiangning City to report to Marshal Guo.
Look.The general clasped his fists and answered, shouting and calling for someone to do something.
A few hours later, Shi Yanchao received a reply from Jiangning City in the military camp.
He took it from his subordinates, opened it and stamped it with the seal of the Qianying Military Palace in Jiangnan, and wrote: The Southern Tang Dynasty had ulterior motives and people made rumors, smashed the stone and carried it to the surface of the river to sink to the river.
Shi Yanchao read it in public and handed it directly to the generals around him: Do this, follow the military order.
The generals sitting on both sides were talking for a while, but they didn't mention Guo Shao's intention to usurp the throne, but only talked about how the stone appeared.
The main men under Shi Yanchao were the two ranks of the Crane Control Army and the straight bow and arrow. This army has never changed its number for several dynasties and generations, because no matter who enters the imperial city, they will be treated generously to show their favor.
At this moment, a general asked: What does General Shi think of this matter?
Although Shi Yanchao often acts arbitrarily, after all, he gets into a low-level general and is still a little clear about some things.
At that moment, he casually slapped the table with a loud bang, and everything on it jumped up.
The generals were shocked and immediately stopped and turned to look over.
Shi Yanchao said: It’s useless to just sharpen your mouth, shut up!
The generals rushed to answer the order. No matter whether they obey Shi Yanchao or not, no one was willing to confront this guy.
……
Guo Shao was at the headquarters of Jiangning City, not only received a report from the Yangtze River to produce stones, but he also had a consultation written by the Imperial City Sizhao: The Yellow River to produce stones.
Compared with the eight words reported by Shi Yanchao, the stones rushing out of the Yellow River are richer in content: the lewd talisman serves three husbands, and the country serves as wedding dresses; the slaves respond outside the door, and the snakes and wolves are both ungrateful.
Guo Shao's face was unwilling, and Wang Pu was looking at the paper in his hand.
According to normal habits, after reading the report, Guo Shao would usually hand it to the left and right to view it, and then everyone would give advice.
But this time, Guo Shao did not let the people around him fold the paper and stuffed it into his pocket.
Wang Pusu stopped saying a word, and Zuo You asked: What happened?
Guo Shao said: It is similar to Shi Yanchao’s report. This time, the stone was released from the Yellow River to slander the Empress Dowager and me.
Zuo You said: The stone by the river should have been done by people from the Southern Tang Kingdom.Are stones fished out from the Yellow River?The spy actions of the Northern Han Dynasty, or Hedong...
Guo Shao refused to answer and frowned and thought for a while.
I thought to myself, the matter of catching stones from the water and imposing the way of heaven seems to have become a routine since ancient times. The Yellow Turban Army did it, and Wu Zetian also did it... This time, I was not ready to make a mystery, and others finished the matter first, but what I wrote was not a good thing.
At the same time, it also confirmed one thing: his intention to increase his reputation through foreign wars and then become emperor was too obvious, and more than one or two people guessed it; this time, the army defeated the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the army returned to the court to take advantage of the opportunity to take action, and many people were also targeted.
Compared to Zhao Kuangyin's sudden opportunity and the timing of taking action as soon as he went abroad, Guo Shao's current opportunities are more natural, but they are also too obvious.
In addition to Wang Pu Zuo You, two civil officials, there were also two military generals, Li Chuyun and Luo Yanhuan.
The crowd was silent for a while, and Wang Pucai said: I still recommend Cao Bin, the general who stayed in Jiangning.It is easy to destroy a country, but it is difficult to defend the land.At the end of last year, our dynasty was able to use troops against the Southern Tang Kingdom, and the peaceful situation after Shu Kingdom was restored. It not only sent a lot of money, materials and people to the war in our dynasty, but also did not restrain the troops of the Great Zhou in the rear.The Southern Tang Kingdom was destroyed, and the situation of territorial territories and treasury in the world was not over yet. The governance of the Southern Tang Kingdom had to be followed by the Shu Kingdom's method.Cao Bin was stationed in Shu Kingdom last year and was able to restrain his soldiers. It is not wrong to let him stay in Jiangnan this year.
Wang Pu seemed to be deaf about what happened just now.
Guo Shao said: What the King envoy said is not without reason.Now, the envoy is sent to Nandu (Nanchang) first, and it is the most urgent task to persuade the remaining places to surrender.
Wang Pu clasped his fists and said: Someone in the Southern Tang Kingdom will still have to preside over some aftermath, and the Wu and Yue Kingdom will also send people nearby. If General Guo wants to bring the imperial troops back to the court from now on, I will ask myself to stay in Jiangnan.
After hearing this, Guo Shao suddenly had a speculation that Wang Pu did not want to support the Conglong, but he was unwilling to stop it. Therefore, he wanted to stay in Jiangnan and stay away from this internal struggle... The purpose may be to preserve the reputation of loyal ministers.
If Wang Pu really had this kind of thought, Guo Shao would understand it.But it was still a little troubled for a while, as if it was neglected by friends... Perhaps, there will be no friends in the future.
At this time, Wang Pu held a polite manner again and said: I will say goodbye first after I finish what I want to say today.
Guo Shao did not leave him, and sent him to the door of the lobby.
When he returned, there were only four people left in the lobby, including the guard and general Qin Shitou who had discussed secretly in the mountain village last time.
Guo Shao didn't say a word and walked straight inside. The others paused and followed.
The group walked to the door of the signing room, and Guo Shao looked back at Qin Shitou.Without saying anything, Qin Shitou said: I understand.
This older man looks old, but he seems to be more sophisticated than Lu Chengyong.
Guo Shao sat down on the chair behind the case, pointed to the stool and chair outside and said: Find a place to sit by yourself.
Zuo You said: I thought about it again just now. The stone in the Yellow River may not have been done by Li Yun from Hedong. It should have been Zhao Kuangyin who fled to the Northern Han Kingdom.
After hearing this, Guo Shao nodded, and the two generals did not object.
Guo Shao thought to himself: According to history, the position was originally Zhao Kuangyin. Now that he sees the situation, he must be very jealous. It is normal to curse a few words, and it may be more than just doing this.
Zuo You said again: Such a mysterious thing can only deceive those stupid men. Those who have some knowledge do not believe it. Most of them can guess it was the lord's enemy.We are not inconvenient to come forward to justify, and the more we talk, the more we become traitorous; however, the lord was allowed to order the generals to temporarily prohibit spreading rumors in the army.
Li Chuyun pondered: Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world. At this critical moment, the lord really pays attention to fame and prestige.
Zuo You frowned and said: How should you deal with it?
At this moment, a faint voice suddenly sounded outside the door.Several people were more alert when talking about secret matters and immediately stopped.
Guo Shao was also silent for the time being and sat on the chair.
Sure enough, after a while, Qin Shitou said outside the door: Lord, something happened in the city. A general came in to report it. He stopped him, so he said a few words.Now the person is sent away.
Guo Shao shouted: Come in and report, what happened?
Qin Shitou pushed open the door and entered, clasped his fists and said: Several soldiers slipped out of the military camp and broke into a private house. They not only robbed property, but also raped the wives and concubines of the family.After being humiliated, the women couldn't think of it and hanged themselves!Now the people in the yard carried the bodies to the front of the military camp, with a large number of people blocking the road.
Bang!Guo Shao slapped the case with a palm, and his face suddenly changed. Whose subordinate?Immediately caught the Central Army and asked questions.
Qin Shitou said: Bei Zhi immediately sent his lord's personal soldiers to go there, but there must be a military order... Bei Zhi went to find the envoy Wang Shumi to give an order?
Guo Shao nodded and said: Then order Shi Yanchao to meet the Central Army in Jiangning City.
Look.Qin Shitou responded.
Half of the stone was in the mud on the riverside, half exposed outside, appearing and disappearing under the erosion of the water waves.
The people in the boat on the river saw a sudden stone by the river, and curiously took a special look.
