Chapter 044 Third Brother's Official

My official and military positions are not high. Whether Huan Xuan is emperor or not, I can't play any role.

However, I thought about it. Huan Xuan may have some scruples about me. My military position is not high, but after all, I have served as the Sima of Sun Wuji and Liulaozhi. Defeat Sun En and Lu Xun contributed the most. Not only the Beifu soldiers, but also the Jingzhou soldiers respect me.

Huan Xuan killed many senior generals of Beifu, but he mainly won over the intermediate generals. Huan Xuan wants to be emperor. In addition to the support of Jiankang's ministers, he naturally needs the support of the army. Huan Xuan's Jingzhou soldiers obviously supported him to claim the throne. The soldiers of other states could not control the power of Jiankang. If the northern soldiers also supported it, there would be no obstacle for Huan Xuan to claim the emperor.

When planning an uprising with He Wuji before, he repeatedly mentioned that we should learn from Chen Ping and Zhou Bo. At that time, we just thought it was Chen and Zhou. Huan Qian's question tonight pushed me to the position of Chen and Zhou. Since there is such a performance opportunity, why don't I learn something like it?

So I bowed and said, "General Wei, the king of Chu is the son of Xuanwu and is unrivaled. The Jin room is weak, and the subjects have long expected a wise king to replace it. Duke Huan is the virtuous king that the people expect. Why not?

Huan Qian said happily, "With the support of General Deyu, this matter is really for. Deyu's position is really a blessing for the people of the world!"

I added vinegar and said, "It's true. Since the king of Chu came to power, the atmosphere of the court has taken on a new look. After the king of Chu became emperor, he naturally expected to rest his soldiers and recuperate as a minister and the people. After several years of operation, he competed with the northern Hus. In this way, the people are expected to recover the northern land.

"Good! It makes sense!" Huan Qian said with a smile, "Although Huan Qian is General Wei. But for leading the army to fight, the king of Chu still needs to rely on such generals as General Deyu.

"I really don't dare! I hope that the King of Chu, General Wei and General Fujun can help more in the future.

"That's natural. Haha."

Huan Xiu entered the house at this time. Huan Qian walked out from behind the screen, raised his wine cup high, and said to Huan Xiu and who came out with him, "Come on, I'll drink this cup!"

Huan Xiu has seen his face and understood what's going on. He also picked up the wine cup.

Huan Qian said, "I wish the king of Chu a long life!"

I also echoed: "I wish the king of Chu a long life!"

Although Huan Xiu didn't say anything, he understood it even more when he heard us say such a toast as "Wanshu Wujiang". He brewed another cup of wine and said to me, "I wish Deyu will rise in the future."

I raised the cup, smiled at them, and drank it all.

Although I didn't want Liu Daogui to participate in our affairs, after all, Daogui was quite spontaneous, voluntary and independent against Huan Xuan. Moreover, since my second brother and I left Beijing to serve, Daogui, as the only man in the family, seems to have matured a lot and no longer fool around like a child as before.

Although He Wuji is given full authority to contact the righteous, it is not convenient for He Wuji to meet me often. It is very appropriate to choose the rules to spread the message. Moreover, it is of great importance, and it is particularly important whether participants can trust it.

The night before Dao Lian left Jingkou and returned to Jiankang, I invited the two brothers to the house and told them what I planned with He Wuji, what He Wuji was doing now, etc.

Dao Lian already knew my intention, so he just nodded when he heard my story. Although Daogui has also revealed some information to him through He Wuji, this time it was officially confirmed by me. He was extremely excited, rubbing his hands and high spirits, and seemed to want to start a career immediately.

I pressed his shoulder and said, "Your second brother Daolian already knows our conspiracy. But I've been hiding it from you. Do you know why?

"Are you afraid that I will be fine?"

"So you know it yourself?" I smiled and said, "Why don't you talk about it?"

"Good talk, good talk, and don't do anything?"

"Sure enough, I'm quite self-aknowledge. These are all the things I used to persuade with Taoist compassion. It's not just these. Those who plan great things should act meticulously. When you don't open your mouth, remember to keep your mouth shut. Have you heard that Wei Yongzhi didn't smile in March to treat his lips?

"Since the eldest brother said so, I will correct it carefully from now on. When you shouldn't speak, don't say a word like Wei Yongzhi. The Taoist rules said affidavitously.

I warned again: "I'm relieved that you can do this. This is not a child's play, and it should not be careless. Once there is a loss, the lives of you and my brothers will not be saved, and my mother, me and Daolian's family will also suffer. Of course, loyalty to the country and sacrifice are inevitable. However, you can't sacrifice yourself in vain.

"I naturally understand the truth."

"Tomorrow Daolian wants to return to Beijing, so I don't need him to do anything. You are in Jingkou, please help me do something with He Wuji.

"I understand. Brother, don't worry."

Speaking of late at night, the three brothers slept together in the wing on the side of the study.

Half a month later, I received a letter from Jiankang, saying that the emperor had summoned the ministers who went to Jingkou to inspect and treat the army. The soldiers who are allowed to give Ping Sun En and Lu Xun's meritorious deeds a rich reward, and those with high merit can make one person an official. This was verified after Huan Qian inspected Jingkou. The emperor's edict came to Beijing, indicating that I could seal a son to be an official.

Fengyin has been a benefactor and nephew since ancient times. I only have one daughter, and my nephew is still young. The only one among my unregretized white relatives is my younger brother Liu Daogui. However, I'm afraid that with the nature of Taoism, I won't be favored by my brother. If he doesn't want to be an official, I'm ready to give this opportunity to Liu Huaijing. When I was a child, Liu Huaijing's mother weaned him in order to feed me, and now it's time for me to repay him.

After making such a plan, I first consulted Liu Daogui. I didn't expect that as soon as I mentioned this matter, the rules would be accepted. According to him, men are ambitious, but some small things should be taken care of. Moreover, we can't always rely on the two brothers.

Although these words were high-sounding, I was quite sad to hear them.

With the talent of Taoism, it is indeed not an ordinary official position that can be fettered. Although he is a little exaggerated to compare himself to ancient sages, in my eyes, the talent of Taoism is far more than Taoism. If Daolian and I do nothing in this life, it is very possible, but if we say that we have done nothing in this life, then I feel that God is too unfair. With his talent, he should not be in an ordinary position.

Seeing that the rules are so persistent, I don't say much. So the court asked Fengyin's younger brother Liu Daogui to serve as an official.

The dynasty came down in a day. Liu Daogui was appointed as General Ning Yuan.

I was a little ironic when I received this order. I joined the army for nearly 20 years and didn't get the rank of general until I paced Sun En's great achievements. The younger brother never joined the army and became a general within a few days. Of course, I don't think that there is no general, but that the appointment and removal of the imperial court is too casual. In the long run, how can the country achieve Zhongxing? Of course, it is not known whether the court wants to revitalise again.

At the same time, I was appointed not only Fengyin's younger brother, but also myself. I was appointed as the governor of Xuzhou and Yanzhou, taking over part of Huan Xiu's authority.

My promotion is expected sooner or later; the inauguration of Taoism is appreciated by the whole family. One is the youngest Taoist rule in the family, and although he is not young, he has always been favored the most by his family. Second, the Taoist rules can restrain some absurd behaviors, which also makes the family very easy.

Although the rules have never actually caused any trouble, they are still reassuring. Although my second brother and I don't have a companion, we are like companions in our official career. Be careful about everything for fear of getting into trouble. The trouble caused in the officialdom can't be solved by ordinary people.

After the recommendation of Xu Xianzhi and others, Liu Daogui was included in Huan Hong's account and stationed in Guangling on the opposite bank of Beijing, not far from Guazhou.

Before Daogui went to Guangling, I had a long talk with him. I know that he doesn't value this rank and position, so I hope he can give in at the right time. Guangling is also an important town in Beifu, and Huan Hong is also a relative of Huan Xuan. We also need the cooperation of Guangling to start a trouble in Beijing. Therefore, I hope that when the Taoist rules go this time, everything should be careful, and I hope that everything in Guangling will be managed well.

The rules understand this truth. After arriving in Guangling, he was no longer tall or arrogant. He was full of flattery and soon got the favor of Huan Hong. Only a month later, Huan Hong incorporated the Taoist rules into the shogunate and became a middle soldier to join the army.

I understand that the promotion of Taoism has a lot to do with me. Huan Xuan tried his best to attract me, and as my younger brother, he would naturally receive preferential treatment from the Huan family. However, the rules do not seem to understand the cause and effect for a while. Every time he returned to Beijing and came to my house, he was full of pride in his promotion.
