Chapter 634: If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight
Inside the main hall in the backyard.
Wang Youxiao sat on the right, with a very serious expression. After hearing the footsteps coming from the door, Wang Youxiao immediately looked up.
Wu Nian strode in from outside.
"General." Wang Youxiao stood up and bowed and said.
"Your school." Wu Young nodded lightly and went straight to the main seat to sit down. His body leaned to the right and leaned against the handrail. His sitting posture was more casual.
"Is there anything wrong with the school?" Wu Nian asked with a smile.
"Do you know that Gongsun Sang is now connecting with all officials and persuades the general to become king?" Wang Youxiao sat back, his expression becoming more serious.
"I know." Wu Nian nodded and said.
"I ask the general to refuse them." Wang Youxiao clasped his fists and cut off the railway.
"Why?" Wu Nian was not surprised, but asked, and his sitting posture became more correct.
"General, our most urgent task is to restore Liaodong and expel the Tartars. Instead of becoming kings, becoming kings will only gain momentary glory. But it is also a tree that is so beautiful that the forest wind will destroy it."
"Please think about it carefully. The general threatened the Chu court with the title of king in exchange for the families of Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu. For this huge Chu State, it was okay for the Mongolian Yuan to call the emperor. Because they were barbarians."
"It doesn't matter if Liaodong is swallowed, because it is a border and deserted place. But their reaction to the general being king is very fierce. As long as you don't call him king, they can exchange it with military forces in the future."
"If the general does not claim to be king and seizes the Nanhai Prefecture, Chu State will not have much reaction when it retreats to Shanhai Pass. But if the general becomes king, it will make Chu State crazy. It is possible to send hundreds of thousands of troops to conquer. At that time, it will not be worth the loss when the enemy is both sides."
Wang Youxiao raised his head, his tone was very serious and his attitude was very firm. He had already made his promise. What are the bastards Gongsun Sang doing?
This is pulling the general into the water.
Things can't be done like this.
A wise person should gain practical benefits and abandon false reputations.
If Wu Nian became king, he would have gained a false reputation and lost his actual benefits.
It is ridiculous to lose the roots and chase the ends.
He knew that his words were not good, and he might be rejected by Wu Nian. He was a loyal minister. How could a loyal minister not support his lord to be king?
But he is such a person. He will definitely support the right things, and he will definitely oppose the wrong things.
Due to personality.
Wu Nian laughed and said, "I would have known you would say that. The school is not. Wang Gongcao. Letting you supervise all officials and take charge of the supervision power is the most right thing I have done in my life."
Speaking of this, Wu Nian changed the subject and said, "But I have to ask the Chief Secretary and Sima's opinion. Please be careful not to be impatient."
As he said that, Wu Nian raised his head and said to the personal soldiers outside the door: "Come on. Go and invite the Chief Secretary, Sima."
"Yes." A soldier clasped his fists and went down immediately.
Wang Youxiao was slightly stunned. Although Wu Nian didn't say anything clearly, he already understood the meaning. He thought Wu Nian would float up after he got the [Destiny], but he didn't expect that Wu Nian would still be so calm.
As for Wu Nian's praise, Wang Youxiao felt hot and bowed and said, "It is also the luckiest thing for me, Wang Youxiao, in this life."
"It's like a fish in water." Wu Nian said with a smile.
Then, the king and his minister sat for a while until Liu Zhixing and Li Yong walked in from outside. Before they could salute, Wu Nian raised his hand and said, "Sit down."
"yes."
Liu Zhixing, Li Yong responded and immediately came to the left and right seats to sit down. Liu Zhixing sat under Wang Youxiao, and Li Yong sat opposite him.
Liu Zhixing looked up at Wang Youxiao, and his eyes showed a thoughtful look. Wang Youxiao was promoted by him personally, and he knew Wang Youxiao's personality and temperament the best.
Wu Nian would not summon them if he had no major events.
A big deal recently.
"The General's Mansion of the Supplementary Han is so big, and any turbulence can be sensational. Gongsun Sang connects all officials and persuades me to be king. You must know. Although their memorial has not been handed over yet, I have to be prepared. Should I agree or oppose it? Zhixing, Lao Li, what do you have to say?"
Wu Nian leaned against the handrail again and took a relaxed position.
"Report to the general. I don't understand such a thing. Anyway, whatever you say is what you will say." Li Yong straightforwardly clasped his fists and expressed his opinion.
Li Yong, the three major officials in this mansion, have the worst qualifications and backgrounds. However, he is able to do the position of Sima well and has no mistakes. He is actually very capable.
Although Li Yong is very old, he is willing to learn. Cao Cao said it well. An old horse is in the stable and has ambitions. It is not scary when people get old, but what is scary is that they lose their vitality.
And doing Sima has consumed all Li Yong's energy. He really doesn't understand political matters.
But he is very loyal and he will support Wu Nian whatever he does.
"General. I'm sorry. If you want to wear a crown, you will definitely be respected." Liu Zhixing thought for a while before bowing and saying.
"Okay. I understand." Wu Young nodded gently, then stood up and said, "To be honest, it's easy to be king, and I don't have any burden. But my idea is very simple. Even during the Warring States Period, King Han had dozens of cities. The king of twelve cities? What's the point? Telling it out makes people laugh out loud."
"We should focus on breaking through the Nanhai Prefecture and driving the Chu army back to Shanhaiguan."
After saying that, Wu Nian sat back again, then looked up and said, "Based on the news Chen Jiagui has obtained."
"The Liaodong Governor Qian can disagree with the Shanhaiguan General Wang Zhongbi, and fight for power and profit. Wang Zhongbi can fight for war, but is greedy for money. Can money fight, but is not greedy for money."
"Now, the two of them have made the crops of Nanhai Mansion a mess. The people's crops are basically dead from drought. I'm afraid there will be no harvest this year."
"Do you think it's time to send troops?"
Drive Xiong Wuwo and Wu Jing away was a wonderful chess step taken by Wu Nian. This wonderful chess step is continuing to work.
It is imperative to fight against Nanhai Prefecture.
But when to hit is a question.
"Report to the general. I think we should wait a little longer. Because Xiong Wuwo's foundation is really good. Now the army under Wang Zhongbi's command still has extremely high combat power. Wang Zhongbi himself is just greedy for money, not that he cannot fight. If we fight him head-on, we will not suffer any loss. However, the Mongols are eyeing him in the north and making a thrust. We are attacked from both sides. Even if we win, we may be greatly damaged."
"It's better to wait until Wang Zhongbi becomes weaker and then take action." Liu Zhixing immediately bowed his hand and replied.
"Well. Zhixing is right." Wu Young gently pinched his chin, lowered his head and pondered for a long time, and nodded and said.
The time is not yet ripe.
Boil the frog in warm water. The frog will jump away when it is still alive.
