What the!

Liu Qingtai has fallen!

This news was not unexpected, but when Yu Xiaobao heard the words of Xu Yuncheng in front of him, his mind was blank.

"You, you ......"

Yu Xiaobao, who had been quite excited about the annihilation of more than 10,000 elite soldiers of the Eight Banners at the ferry a few hours ago, would be dumbfounded, even if he had seen strong winds and waves, but he had never seen such a shameless person.

"Aren't you afraid that Yu will order someone to attack the city?"

In the face of Xiaobao's threat, Xu Yuncheng just replied.

"If General Yu is not afraid of setting off the internal strife of the Ming Dynasty and becoming a sinner of the Ming Dynasty, he can do whatever he wants!"

Looking at the stunned General Yu in front of him, Xu Yuncheng's heart was full of pride, for him, he had already guessed the result of this trip long before he came to Kaifeng.

A gentleman can be bullied!

If there is any impression of the Huai King who has never met, I am afraid that the Huai King is a typical righteous gentleman, at least on the surface, he is a righteous gentleman.

What kind of people are best to deal with in this world?

A gentleman is best to deal with!

Therefore, a gentleman can be deceived in a way, and it is difficult to do it in a wrong way!

Since he King Huai is a gentleman, then use the most reasonable way to deal with him, and even if it weren't for the fact that King Huai is a gentleman, Xu Yuncheng would not have come to Kaifeng, the reason why he came to Kaifeng was because he knew Zhu Mingzhong and knew that he would never raise troops against Li Ziyuan for a small Kaifeng.

"You ......"

Being reminded by Xu Yuncheng like this, Yu Xiaobao was suddenly dumbfounded, and after a while, he said angrily.

"Okay, good Xu Yuncheng, good, good!"

With a heavy sigh, Yu Xiaobao said sharply.

"You are proud, you go and tell the surname Li, this Kaifeng feeling, my loyal and righteous army all remember!"

In addition to dropping this sentence, Yu Xiaobao has nothing to do at all, he naturally can't use troops against Kaifeng now,

"Thank you, General, for knowing the righteousness!"

Xu Yuncheng immediately bowed when he heard this.

"Yun Cheng has thanked the general and the king of Huai on behalf of the people of the world!"

Of course, Xu needs to thank King Huai even more!

The reason why Xu Yuncheng is so proud is precisely because this Kaifeng is the way for him to get promoted, the reason why he did not go out in the past is that there is no good opportunity, and as for this, it is because in his opinion, there is no one worthy of his service.

At this time, the reason why he chose Li Ziyuan was precisely because in his opinion, Li Ziyuan had the potential to become a great person.

"Brother Houdi, after today, everyone in the world will know the name of Luoyang Xu Houdi, brother does not spend a single soldier, that is, General Li captured Kaifeng, the younger brother is really admired!"

Zhang Mu looked at Xu Yuncheng's tone full of compliments, for him who was only forty years old, when he was trapped in Kaifeng, all he thought about was how to avoid difficulties, but who would have thought that just when he was worried about the future, the news of Liu Qingtai's return to Daming suddenly came out, and it was Xu Yuncheng who lobbied from it, and what was even more surprising was that this Liu Qingtai surrendered to Li Ziyuan in Luoyang, instead of sending troops to besiege Zhu Mingzhong!

Such a strange thing, I am afraid that throughout the ages, only he Xu Yuncheng can do it, and he can actually snatch food from other people's mouths without spending a single soldier, which is really amazing, but also extremely admirable. It is precisely because of this that he came to meet Xu Yuncheng, although he is more than ten years younger than him, but because the two fathers are close friends, the two have always been called brothers.

"King Huai is a gentleman!"

Xu Yuncheng's tone did not hide his praise for Zhu Mingzhong.

"It can be said that only King Huai is the true gentleman today!"

While sighing, Xu Yuncheng's face was proud, while Zhang Mu complimented him on the side.

"Even so, King Huai is determined to win Kaifeng, but he is not attacked by Brother Houdi, which is really a talent of Houdi, which is really admirable!"

In the face of such a compliment, Xu Yuncheng just smiled slightly and accepted his compliment calmly, but he was very proud in his heart, from now on, who in this world would not know his name?

"Brother Houdi, why aren't you worried about the attack of the Loyal Army? After all, King Huai is loyal and righteous, but it is difficult to ensure that his subordinates do not do their own thing! ”

Zhang Mu, who was in Kaifeng City, naturally knew that this matter was by no means as simple as the legends outside, just this kind of tiger's mouth, I don't know how many risks there were, and the biggest risk was probably that the loyal generals who came to the city would act without authorization and directly attack the city.

"Hmph, if it were someone else, Xu would naturally be a little worried, but this loyal army is different from others, its military discipline is strict, if there are front-line generals acting without authorization, there will be military law!"

After sneering, Xu Yuncheng sighed again.

"The world often only hears the name of King Huai's loyalty, but does not know his longest training, and the strict discipline of the loyal and righteous army under his command is far beyond the comparison of others......"

Facing Xu Yuncheng's praise, Zhang Mu asked a little puzzled.

"Brother Houdi, if that's the case, why did Brother choose General Li instead of King Huai?"

This is exactly what Zhang Mu is curious about, in his opinion, Li Ziyuan is not the best choice.

"Actually......"

After taking a sip of tea, Xu Yuncheng's eyes narrowed into a slit, and he asked rhetorically for a while.

"Throughout the ages, how can a dignified gentleman be the only one in Huai? Just like that Song Xianggong, how positive was it originally in the history books? "A gentleman is not seriously injured, and he is not a fowl. The ancients are also the army, and they are not obstructed. Although the widow is dead, he does not drum and does not form a column", the Spring and Autumn War pays attention to "etiquette", lies in paying attention to promises, abiding by faith, rather than winning by conspiracy and cunning, which can be seen in Su Shi's "Song Xianggong Treatise" in the Song Dynasty, "As for the defeat, the crime of the Song Gong can be seen." After that, the world judged heroes by their success or failure. In the eyes of the world, General Li once entered the three gates, and betrayed the three gates, which can really be described as a slave of the three surnames, and his inferior character does not need to be said, but in Xu's opinion, it ......"

When he slowly said his views from ancient times to the present, Xu Yuncheng's tone was full of contempt, which was contempt for the world.

"General Li first out of the Huai Wangmen, has been in charge of an army, and then out of the Cangshui Gate, has been in charge of a place, and now is to refuse to delay the order of the soldiers to lead the Northern Expedition, for the first in the world, although it is the move of the three surnames, but the real world, how can anyone care about the so-called promise, faithfulness, when General Li's Northern Expedition is successful, it is the first hero of my Ming Dynasty, as for the so-called three rebellions...... But it's just a short-sighted sight! ”

Xu Yuncheng's words made a thought pop up in Zhang Mu's heart, and he even said with some gaffes.

"Brother Houdi means that King Huai is not traitorous enough!"

Not only is it not traitorous enough, it is clearly Song Xianggong!

In an instant, Zhang Mu understood, he looked at Xu Yuncheng, who was smiling and silent, and said.

"Little brother understands, understands!"

"Understood?"

Xu Yuncheng asked with a smile, and only after Zhang Mu nodded did he explain.

"Therefore, read more history books, take history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall, this is not to say to the emperor, but also to me, do you think that throughout the ages, the Ming monarchs and virtuous ministers are as noble as people say? Its so-called nobility is just the world's praise, if a virtuous minister is like Song Xianggong, who values faith and promise, how can he be the opponent of a traitorous minister? The gentleman can be the most easy to deal with in this world, the gentleman pays attention to faith everywhere, but the villain is repeated, so how can the gentleman be the opponent of the villain? ”

Xu Yuncheng's words completely subverted Zhang Mu's perception of Xu Yuncheng and the world.

Not treacherous enough!

This is exactly the reason why Xu Yuncheng chose Li Ziyuan, the reason why he chose him was because he was treacherous enough.

"However, if General Li's character is under his disciples, how can he rest assured? After all, his character is really not trusted. ”

Zhang Mu hesitated to express his worries, but his words were exchanged for Xu Yuncheng's laughter.

"Mu Yuan, if this is the case, then how can Li Ziyuan be full of talents? Li Ziyuan's treachery lies in his unscrupulous means to achieve the goal, such means are naturally necessary for those who achieve great things, just like today's Kaifeng, if it is replaced by anyone else, how can he let Xu Mou get this Kaifeng City with a three-inch tongue, the gentleman cherishes his wings, the more so, the more unlikely it is to be Li Ziyuan's opponent, and those who become great things are not informal, even if Zhu Ming is loyal to Kaifeng today, how can the world say that he is disloyal? How can it be said that it provoked infighting? With so many scruples, how can it become a big deal! ”

In the midst of sighing, Xu Yuncheng took a sip of tea from the teacup, and then said.

"Fang today, there are four generals, Yanping is based on Nanjing, Cangshui is based on Nanchang, and King Huai is based on Jiangbei, and then General Li grasps Huguang, and among the four generals, Yanping was born in a wealthy family, with a sincere temperament, and disdains all kinds of means, Cangshui Wenchen was born, stuck in small sections, although he has the means, he is unwilling to do it, and the king of Huai is ......"

After a moment of silence, Xu Yuncheng let out a long sigh.

"Although the king of Huai is from the rivers and lakes, he is really a true gentleman, but unfortunately, this is not the past, although he has the name of loyalty, but time has passed. Among the four, only General Li will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal, so that he can achieve great things, and those who achieve great things are not informal! ”

In the sigh, Xu Yuncheng just shook his head slightly, and in his praise for King Huai, there was more contempt, in his opinion, this kind of "gentleman" is precisely the biggest taboo for the above, if King Huai can have half of Li Ziyuan's means, how can there be today's Kaifeng.

"In terms of the future, in the eyes of someone Xu, among the four, only General Li can be called the real pillar of the country!"

Although it was such praise on the surface, Zhang Mu had already faintly heard his true thoughts from Xu Yuncheng's words, how could what he cared about be the "pillar of the country", the reason why he Li Ziyuan was because he was "traitorous" enough, only such people would not be foolish and loyal, and only this kind of person would have more development potential.

"That brother Tai thinks that after King Huai knows about this, what will he do?"
