Song Xiao

Chapter 262 Supporting Party Feathers

Only Chu Tianya knows in his heart that Xu Han came to break through desperately, and it must not be just to read this waste article.

So after the banquet, Chu Tianya invited Xu Han to his account, and the inside and outside were martial law was not allowed to enter.

"Xu Xiang, can the official have a secret decree or an oracle?" Chu Tianya asked directly.

Xu Han smiled bitterly on the spot, "The prince is really wise and wise."

In the face of Chu Tianya, who was a former sworn enemy and broke his career, Xu Han's heart should be full of hatred. But at this moment, he had to be convinced by the young man in front of him and was helpless.

Chu Tianya seemed to see Xu Han's thoughts and smiled and said, "Please show me."

Xu Han took out a cloth bag from his close-fitting bag, then asked someone to take the basin, mixed the medicine powder, and then took out the lettering in the bag and soaked it in the potion, and then the words came out.

It can be seen that the official is afraid that the letter will fall into the hands of others.

Chu Tianya read it by letter. This is actually a list with the names of many people on it.

Xu Han was also surprised to see it. He said that there must be a secret contract between the official family and Chu Tianya. The names of these people are all the governors or generals of the current dynasty! - Strangely, the official family does not come out of Tokyo. Chu Tianya has just come from Luoyang. How did the two reach a secret contract?

Chu Tianya looked at the list with a gratifying smile on his face.

"Why is the prince laughing?" Xu Han asked in surprise.

"I'm gratified." Chu Tianya replied, "If you want to save Tokyo and refund thieves, you have to cooperate with each other. The official finally abandoned his ora for Chu and was willing to adopt my advice.

"How can I see it?" Xu Han is even more confused.

"To be honest, Xu Xiang." Chu Tianya handed the wet piece of the sheet to Xu Han and said, "I just suggest that the officials must choose a suitable person to take charge of the defense of Tokyo and cooperate with the 200,000 righteous troops in Wutongyuan. If you are not a strong and safe person, you will lose this battle. Thinking about it, the official family did not want to be the king of the subjugated country, so he took Chu's advice and gave a list to assist the officials in choosing a Tokyo garrison!"

Xu Han was stunned when he heard this! - Although Chu Tianya, although you used extortion to get a prince's name, you have not yet entered the government, and you have begun to influence the political affairs of the government?!

The choice of Tokyo's imperial envoy is a major event related to the fate of the country and the dominance of the court. Are the officials really confused? How can they make such a precedent - let a foreign king decide the survival of the country?!

Seeing Xu Han's expression, Chu Tianya smiled and said nothing. Of course, he can understand that in the eyes of scholars like Xu Han, there are different patterns of kings and ministers, which is a fixed number that can't be changed in the ages. A grassy warlord, to put it nicely, is a prince with a foreign surname, actually led the nose of the official family to control the power of the country. This kind of thing is no longer enough to describe it with salivation. It is simply a winter thunder earthquake and the river flowing backwards!

"Xu Xiang, you must be familiar with these people. In your opinion, who is more suitable for the position of Tokyo's envoy? Chu Tianya didn't open which pot, and deliberately asked.

Xu Han really trembled all over.

Not to mention Chu Tianya asking him, even if the official invited him to come up with this idea, Xu Han did not dare to say it!

Chu Tianya is full of jokes, "Xu Xiang, don't worry too much, you and I will take it as a chat. You say it, but I listen to it. How to make a decision has to be decided by the officials.

Xu Han wiped a cold sweat and settled his mind, but he still couldn't say what he said.

Chu Tianya smiled and said to himself, "Now the deputy prime minister Sun Fu is talking about the defense of the capital, right? - This corrupt Confucian will sooner or later destroy Tokyo. It's okay if he doesn't understand military affairs. He also invited a few demons to cast spells in Tokyo, saying that he would invite Liuding Liujiatian soldiers to go down to the earth to save the danger of Tokyo. It's ridiculous. If there is really a magic soldier like Liuding Liujia, what would the Song Dynasty do to raise that million army?

Xu Han wiped his cold sweat and smiled bitterly and whispered, "Only the prince dares to say these words. Who dares to point fingers in Tokyo?"

"So, this Sun Fu is still favored by the imperial court?" Chu Tianya turned his eyes and said, "No wonder the officials sent you out to declare the order. They have to make this list so secretive. Presumably now, the forces of the Lord and the surrender faction have completely dominated the court?

"Almost..." Xu Han sighed gently, "Since Yao Pingzhong's defeat in the Battle of Tokyo last year, Li Gang, Zhong Shidao and others of the main battle faction have lost power together. Since then, the Lord and the faction have completely won the power over the court. Xu also tried his best to resist the war of resistance, but as a result, he mistakenly became the enemy of the prince in Taiyuan... The past is unbearable to look back!"

At this point, Xu Han couldn't laugh or cry, and he was very annoyed.

Chu Tianya smiled slightly, "There is no need to mention the past. At present, the most urgent matter is not to let the Lord and the faction still occupy the left and right officials of the court. Since the official sent this secret letter, it can be seen that he still realizes that the present crisis can no longer be solved by peace talks. I'm afraid that the officials have no choice but to appoint Sun Fu and other generations. The official family's tenure was not deep in the court, and a large group of important ministers besieged him, and he had no choice. In addition, there is no general on the court that can be used. Even if the officials want to fight against the war, no one can use it - in this list, I only like the old minister Zong Ze.

Chu Tianya's words suddenly turned around, which made Xu Han excited all over his body, "K Kaifeng magistrate, Zong Ze?"

"That's right." Chu Tianya said firmly, "What do you think, Xu Xiang thinks?"

Xu Han looked at Chu Tianya in surprise, "What the prince said coincided with what Xu thought - Xu was surprised that the prince was far away in Taiyuan and close to Luoyang, and he should never have met Zong Ze. How do you know that Zong Ze has the talent of the army and the ambition to serve the country?

Chu Tianya smiled and said nothing. He couldn't tell Xu Han that I learned from history books, Baidu and various forum novels.

Xu Han naturally would not be stupid enough to break the casserole and ask to the end, so he changed the topic and said, "At present, Zong Ze serves as the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture and is directly controlled by Sun Fu, the imperial envoy of Tokyo. In fact, it was Zong Ze who commanded the city's soldiers and horses to fight with the golden soldiers. In the past few months, there have been more than ten battles, and there have been many victories. However, although Zong Ze has a talent and reputation and has made great achievements in this battle of Tokyo, he has no prestige in the court. I'm afraid it is difficult to overwhelm Sun Fu and others.

"Exordinary things, extraordinary methods." Chu Tianya said, "In the current war, how can we use the ordinary rules of officialdom to determine the survival of life and death? - Compared with the survival of the country, anyone can sacrifice!"

Xu Han trembled all over, "Your Majesty, you are going to..."

"Those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will die, which is the consistent style of mountain thieves and bandits." Chu Tianya smiled, but his tone was cold, "If Sun Fu and other party members don't want to serve the country in this autumn of life and death, it's a dead end. It's not a pity for them to die. They can't let the whole dynasty and the whole Song people of the world be martyred with them. In contrast, it is better for them to die than hundreds of millions of people. What does Xu Xiang think?

Xu Han's mouth was wide open and he couldn't close it for a long time.

Chu Tianya came to him, gently patted him on the back, and whispered, "Xu Xiang, since the official sent you to break through and send this list, it can be seen that the official trusts you and rely on you. The external difficulties pull the internal consumption, and now is the time to innovate in the court. Xu Xiangru's ability to turn the tide has made some achievements. His daily achievements are unlimited!"

Xu Han has been living in the officialdom for half of his life. How can he not hear the meaning of Chu Tianya's words? - It is obviously pulling him to become Chu's confidant and cooperate with Chu Tianya and control the court!

"Xu and Xu have long lost their power and are no longer in the past. If it hadn't been for the fact that he had a little friendship with the prince, the officials would not have thought that Xu would be the dead man who broke through the siege!" Xu Han was both surprised and excited, and said in panic, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid Xu can't bear the heavy responsibility! You, you'd better invite another master!"

"Haha!" Chu Tianya laughed, "Xu Xiang, since you are afraid of being rich and noble? - Is it against the virtue of cutting thieves for the country, eliminating violence and peace, and exorcising tigers and protecting the people? Why are you so afraid of this?

"Me! ..." Xu Han was speechless.

"Don't be afraid." Chu Tianya smiled in his chest, "To deal with a sour Confucian scholar like Sun Fu, you don't have to use thousands of troops or fight against the blood in the court. I have a green guard, and I can do everything in heaven and earth. It's like walking leisurely in the forbidden palace. Tomorrow, I will send the Qingwei to escort Xu Xiang back to Tokyo and sneak into the palace. First, to protect Xu Xiang and the officials. Second, if Sun Fu and others dare to accept the appointment of the officials' measures, they will take down three feet of blood with one knife - capture the thief and capture the king, and the big thing can be decided!"

"This...this..." Xu Han quivered, "Kill the court, how to make this kind of thing?"

"If you keep breaking, you will suffer from the chaos." Chu Tianya's eyes were like a knife, "Xu Xiang, look, since the officials have sent this list, it means that the officials already have an idea in their hearts and are willing to support us and other main war factions and fight off the gold thieves by force. With officials in charge, what else are we afraid of? No matter what we do, it is to eliminate thieves for the country and share the worries for the officials. At that time, the gold thief will reorganize the court, and there will be another scene above the court. If Xu Xiang can come out of this life and death, it is a great achievement to save the country - comparable to the meritorious official of the founding of the country!"

In the last paragraph, Xu Han was full of excitement.

A soldier who doesn't want to be a marshal is not a good soldier. Xu Han must also have ambition and retribution in his heart. Once he was also an extremely popular minister, but because of a wrong battle in Taiyuan, he was taken home to farm. Now, Chu Tianya, who once made him a failure, once again put him back on the big stage of the court.

The opportunity is in front of us, whether it is life or death, whether it is to take or give up. He is in Xu Han's thought.

"Xu Xiang, a man should kill people. In his life, it is rare to take advantage of the thunder to turn into a cloud dragon." Chu Tianya was still bewitched, "Do you want to live in resentment and loss all your life? - Besides, learning literature and martial arts is loaned to the emperor's family. At present, when the officials are employing people, they entrust you and me with heavy responsibilities. How can you retreat for fear of death?

Xu Han's fighting spirit and ambition were finally stimulated. "Okay, it's not a pity for Xu's death. In order to report the official family, he is willing to fight with the prince - but I don't know if the official will really abandon the master and faction and use Zong Ze as the commander-in-chief as the prince said?"

"The world is like chess. You and I are all chess pieces, and officials are no one else." The corners of Chu Tianya's mouth were slightly raised, revealing a strange and murderous sneer in Xu Han's eyes - "Forced by the general trend, officials can't listen or not!!"

Xu Han took a deep breath!

He knew in his heart that from this moment, whether it was Xu Han or Zong Ze, who was about to be in the upper field... To put it bluntly, it would be his Chu Tianya, who supported him on the court!
