Chapter 104 Next Goal
Lv Bu among the people and the red rabbit in the horse.
Although the red rabbit horse is a rare BMW good horse, its owner is really miserable. Lv Bu was hanged in the White Gate Building.
After Lv Bu died in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the red rabbit horse returned to Cao Cao. Later, Cao cherished Guan Yu and gave it to Guan Yu. This is said in the Romance, but historical books record that after Lv Bu's death, the whereabouts of the red rabbit horse were unknown and did not become anyone's mount.
Xie Wangzu's family's learning origin is very clear about the origin of the red rabbit horse, so Liu Yi said that the horse given to Lu Qiang was the red rabbit, and his first reaction was that Liu Yi was not kind-hearted.
But how can this kind of thing be made clear? Is it because Lv Bu's dead ghost has ridden a red rabbit horse and refuses to refuse? Isn't that too underestimated? I don't think Lu Qiang will agree either.
In Xie Wangzu's wild thoughts, the servants in Liu Yi's house brought a red horse with moon-shaped white spots on his forehead.
Xie Wangzu is a civil official. Although he doesn't know the war horse, he can't help but say "good horse" as soon as he sees this horse
"Running thousands of miles of dust, crossing the water and climbing the mountain with purple fog. Breaking the reeds and shaking the jade strands, the fire dragon flew down for nine days"
This poem describes a red rabbit horse. Except for the white one on its forehead, the tall and strong horse has no hair all over its body. It is really like charcoal. When it looks up and hiss, it seems to fly away.
From the first glance of the horse, Xie Wangzu believed that only Lu Qiang could match the horse. The trace of unhappiness in my heart suddenly disappeared.
Nodding and saying, "Then I will thank Lord Situ on behalf of my Lord Lu"
Xie Wangzu also understood that if he didn't want this horse, I don't think Lu Qiang will spare him.
After saying goodbye from Liu Yi, as soon as he returned to the post office, Liu Muzhi followed him like a ghost.
Looking at the ten lights, Xie Wangzu couldn't help smiling bitterly. Can't you let me have a rest? However, with the mission, old man Xie could only deal with Liu Muzhi with his spirit.
Xie Wangzu's every move in Liu Yi's mansion had already been reported to Liu Yu. Although he did not know what agreement had been reached between them, the red rabbit horse could not fake it. Obviously, Liu Yi had made a lot of money to attract Lu Qiang.
Therefore, Liu Yu ordered Liu Muzhi to give up more when negotiating with Xie Wangzu. As long as the Jingzhou navy does not appear in Yangzhou waters, everything is easy to say.
The two negotiated much faster this time. Soon, they drafted an agreement on behalf of the two sides, which was probably not allowed the Jingzhou water army to block the river and seize the materials transported to Jiankang and other places. In return, Liu Yu will no longer pursue the destruction of the warship. At the same time, he admitted that Lu Qiang actually controlled Jing and Jiang Erzhou and promised that he would not advocate the impeachment of Lu Qiang in the court.
Both of them are old deep-fried dough sticks. Although the general direction has been negotiated, they are still bargaining in details. It was not until the middle of the moon that Liu Muzhi left.
After this quarrel, Xie Wangzu was not sleepy, so he simply wrote a letter to Lu Qiang with an oil lamp.
He reported to Lu Qiang about the details of seeing the emperor, Liu Yi, Liu Muzhi and others on the first day of disembarking. Of course, he did not forget to mention that he took gifts for Lu Qiang and so on. Finally, he told Lu Qiang that he would return after visiting some officials.
There is one thing that hasn't been said in the letter, which is a secret mission of Xie Wangzu's trip. Dai Qianqiu has sneaked into Jiankang in advance, and Xie Wangzu still wants to get in touch with him. And this kind of thing can't be said in the letter, so as not to fall into the hands of others.
At this time, outside Lu Qiang's residence, who had not left Xunyang, also came a guest. He was Sima Xiuzhi.
What he saw and heard along the way made Sima Xiu put away his pride early. He really didn't expect that the Jin Dynasty still had such a young talent, especially after knowing that Jiangzhou's military and civilians' support for Lu Qiang, he had given up the idea of taking it.
He came to see Lu Qiang today, mainly to finally verify whether this person is Jinshi Zhongliang or the hero of the world.
Lu Qiang is explaining the matter to Yan Yanzhi, who has just arrived, and will go outside the city to visit the two senior monks of Foguang Temple.
I heard that a man surnamed Sima wanted to see him. Lu Qiang's first thought was that this guy must be another emperor. In fact, he annoyed the royal descendants who relied on their ancestors to eat and wait to die. He felt that they were like a group of metatarded maggots, sucking the blood left by their ancestors, and once they had nothing to eat, they would bite their own people fiercely. Isn't Sima Bao the best example?
I didn't want to see you, but I was stopped by Yan Yanzhi.
"Your Excellency, please forgive me for saying many words. As far as my subordinates know, Sima Xiuzhi is a rare talent in the Sima family. Huan Xuan's chaotic government. He was the first person to kill before the usurpation of the throne. If he hadn't seen the opportunity and fled with Liu prison's son Liu Jingxuan and Gao Yazhi, he has now been killed by Huan Xuan. Although I don't know why he came, I might as well see him."
Lu Qiang really didn't know that there was still this matter. He didn't know who Liu Jingxuan and Gao Yazhi were, but Liu Fuzhi knew it. Although the guy was not firm in the end, he could not deny that he was also a general. Otherwise, how could he command the Beifu army at that time? Presumably his son is not bad, right?
Lu Qiang has no impression of Sima Xiuzhi at all, and he has changed so much that he may not recognize him except his brothers.
Lu Qiang now lacks talents, but this is an urgent matter, so when he hears about some depressed celebrities, he immediately wants to take them for his own use.
At this time, someone was ordered to invite Sima Xiuzhi in.
In fact, if Sima Xiuzhi comes one day later, he will not see Lu Qiang, because Lu Qiang is about to start his first southern tour.
Now the two states of Jing and Jiang are under his actual control, but every day he sits in the government office to read newspapers and listen to other people's reports. In fact, it can be said that he does not know the real situation below, so he intends to walk around the jurisdiction to better grasp first-hand information.
There are Wang Zhenvil and Tao Yuanming in Jiangling, Yan Yanzhi in Xunyang, and Tan Daoji and Guoquan outside, so that he can travel south at ease.
This is what he is telling Yan Yanzhi now. While talking, Sima Xiuzhi was invited in.
Lu Qiang looked up and down at Sima Xiuzhi, and his impression was good. He ordered someone to give him a tea seat.
Sima Xiuzhi was also looking at Lu Qiang. This man was a little surprising, but Sima Xiuzhi always felt that this person was a little kind, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him for a moment.
He arched his hand and said, "Hugh has seen Lord Lu"
Lu Qiang has actually always been very strange. Why do people in the Jin Dynasty want to wear a word after their names? Does it sound good?
"General Xiu doesn't need to be polite. I don't know what General Xiu came from?"
Lu Qiang's attitude was very plain, that is, he was not too enthusiastic and did not neglect him.
"Huge wants to see whether Lord Lu is Zhou Bo or Wang Mang"
As soon as Sima Xiu's words fell, the guards behind Lu Qiang drew their knives and stared angrily. Obviously, as long as Lu Qiang gave an order, they could cut Sima Xiuzhi into meat mud.
Even Yan Yanzhi pinched a cold sweat for him. Can he ask if he said such a thing in his heart? You didn't come here to die on purpose, did you?
If Lu Qiang's predecessor was not Sima Dezong, then Sima Xiuzhi's words were destined to plant the seeds of killing him, so Lu Qiang was not only not annoyed when he heard his words, but was sincerely happy. It turned out that some people in the Sima family were really not afraid of death.
ying Sima Xiuzhi's stubborn and resolute eyes, after a long time, Lu Qiang smiled and said, "I still lack a group of military Sima around me. I don't know if General Xiu is willing to give in?"
Sima Xiuzhi also summoned up great courage to ask this sentence. In his imagination, if Lu Qiang is like Wang Mang, he will confess passionately, then comfort him kindly, and then deport him.
Or Lu Qiang became angry and killed him directly, so that although he died, he could also expose the true face of Lu Qiang.
But I never thought that Lu Qiang would use him, and he was also the marching Sima beside Lu Qiang.
Sima Xiuzhi is a royal family and has been a general before, but now the Sima royal family is not popular. After he returned from the State of Yan, he has not even been in an official position.
And Lu Qiang is now the history of Jing and Jiang. Although it is a little talented and useless for him to be a marching Sima, Sima Xiuzhi also wants to take this opportunity to see the true face of Lu Qiang.
After being stunned for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay"
Lu Qiang stood up and said, "There are two monks in the Foguang Temple outside the city who are preaching scriptures. Is General Xiu interested in listening to it with me?"
Listen to the monk chanting scriptures?
Sima Xiuzhi was not interested in the monk's way, but he did not want to let go of the opportunity to observe Lu Qiang. Now he nodded and readily agreed.
Now it's the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, but the weather is still sultry. I can't see many pedestrians walking on the road. Even the Zhizhi on the tree seems to be so hot that I don't want to scream.
Lu Qiang and his party of more than ten people rushed out of the city. Lu Qiang did not wear official armor, and the guards only carried portable weapons. In the eyes of outsiders, they are more like the guardians of that big family, but they know that this is a popular figure of Jing and Jiang.
Sima Xiuzhi had already found Sun Yao in the invisible bodyguard, and he couldn't help but have a bad impression of Lu Qiang. After leaving the city, he took a few steps to Lu Qiang.
"Lord Lu believes in Buddhism?"
Lu Qiang turned his head and looked into Sima Xiu's eyes and recognized the disdain in his tone, but he didn't know why. Shaking his head, "I only believe in myself"
After a pause, he said, "General Xiu is a royal family. What do you think of owning a large amount of land in the temple?"
Sima Xiuzhi couldn't help but be stunned. He was a royal family, but the things he touched were really limited, and he was hunted down by Huan Xuan as soon as he entered politics, so he didn't know how to answer Lu Qiang's question for a while.
hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's all worshipped by believers, and the government can't intervene. Why do you have this question?"
"A large area of land is owned by scholars, door valves and temples, and they do not pay any taxes. In the long run, what does the government rely on to support? Only those lands are difficult to feed the people. The government is forcibly exploiting them. Do the people still have a way to survive? If it were you, what would you do?
In fact, these words are also said to Sima Xiuzhi. I'm afraid that Lu Qiang will not say it if he changes people or occasions. Now the Changsha Kua's family has taken the lead in paying taxes to the government according to the actual harvest of land. Under his leadership, I believe that rich families will soon follow him. Once the scholars are solved, Lu Qiang is ready to attack the temple. .
