When people reach a certain age, their thinking is inevitably blocked, and their reactions become relatively sluggish.

Director Wang is naturally no exception, in previous years, because of many internal and external military and political affairs, he still didn't feel how much, but in recent years, he has been idle and has nothing to do, and this feeling has become more and more obvious.

For example, after getting the Jiangbei Letter this time, he could realize that the Huainan Army's victory this time could have a certain impact on the current situation in Jiangdong, and the first thing he thought of was to send his children back to his hometown and arrange a retreat for the Langya Wang clan.

However, as for Shen Weizhou's thinking intentions and the variables that may appear in Jiangdong later, Director Wang gradually formed a relatively accurate and specific understanding after listening to Wang Yunzhi's narration.

But this does not mean that Director Wang is completely old and deaf, with the inspiration given by Wang Yunzhi's words, he will quickly understand the situation thoroughly, and his thoughts and feelings are much more comprehensive than Wang Yunzhi's. After all, although Wang Yunzhi is in his prime and has no loss of determination, after all, he lacks a little experience in a high position, and even if he has some thoughts, it is difficult to achieve comprehensiveness.

For example, Wang Yunzhi said that Shen Weizhou was going to enter Wangheluo and plot against Jingzhen, which Wang Dao also thought was possible, but this was by no means Shen Weizhou's entire purpose, at least for the time being, giving up Hebei and entering Wangheluo was more of a deterrent to the situation in Jiangdong.

There are definitely more than two or three smart people in the world, although Director Wang also feels that Wang Yunzhi is the richest and most talented person in his family. But to be honest, compared with Shen Weizhou, Director Wang still feels that Wang Yunzhi is slightly inferior. may be quite talented, but Wang Yunzhi lacks the experience of rushing upwards until he is in a high position.

In previous years, Director Wang felt that if his eldest son Wang Changyu did not die, he should be the one who discussed the Tao with Shen Weizhou. But now the fact is that even he himself is now being put on the sidelines, and he is no longer qualified to talk about the Tao. Even Wang Yunzhi can see this opportunity for turmoil, and if he wants to accumulate the strength for the family to recover, can't Shen Weizhou see it?

Therefore, Director Wang believes that Shen Weizhou is unaware of this hidden danger and has withdrawn from Hebei to enter Heluo, which is itself dealing with this variable.

The recovery of the homeland can cause a big debate between the north and the south about whether to return to the homeland, but what about the recovery of the homeland?

If Shen Weizhou's intentions are here, then Director Wang also has to admit that Shen Weizhou's pattern and means have not only far surpassed his peers, but also surpassed those in the court. When faced with a big problem, it is not to appease, not to collide head-on, but to suppress it with a bigger problem. Their means are already high enough to guide the fortunes of the country, while others are still obsessed with the gains and losses of the portal.

More importantly, when the power struggle is no longer enough to resolve the contradictions, as the contradictions continue to intensify, they will eventually evolve into a situation in which the situation is broken by force. If even the last bit of decency is no longer maintained......

After pondering for a long time, Director Wang returned to the front of the case and wrote a letter. At this moment, his heart was full of envy for Shen Chong, at the very least, he didn't need to work hard for his children's safety and future.

Halfway through the letter, suddenly the protégé came to tell him that it was the Chinese book that ordered Chu Yi and the servant Zhuge Hui to come to see him. Director Wang couldn't help but be stunned for a moment after receiving the news, and then ordered his family to decorate the hall, and he went out to greet him personally.

After Wang Dao was free, there were not many people in the house, except for some close relatives, important ministers like Chu Yi and Zhuge Hui rarely came to the door. So when the two entered the mansion together, the family members in the entire Wang mansion ran back and forth, worried about being rude and quite attentive, but it always seemed a little panicked.

When Chu Yi and Zhuge Hui saw this scene, they were quite emotional in their hearts, and they couldn't help but think of the scene when they visited the door in previous years. At that time, the Langya Wang family was dominant, and the brothers of the same generation were the ministers of Taiwan and the uncles of the army, even if the guests were full, they could also receive them in an orderly manner, and the whole family from the master to the servants was filled with a taste of confidence.

But now, even if Director Wang is still alive, the temperament of the first high-ranking family in previous years is no longer there, and even the family members are full of uneasiness and crampedness that the big tree is about to fall.

Seeing Wang Dao coming on foot, Chu Yu and the other two did not dare to slack off, and ordered the accompanying protégés to wait in the side hall. ”

Director Wang's appearance is much older than a few years ago, but although Chu Yi and the others are rarely seen, they can also meet each other every time they are at major celebrations and ceremonies.

"The two Taiwanese dukes are so polite, but it makes me feel uneasy!"

Director Wang laughed, raised his hand to support the two, and then took their arms with his backhand and walked towards the hall. Although he is no longer in power at the moment, the bearing and prestige of the first person in the Dianwu Dynasty have not weakened much, especially outside the current situation, and there is no need for any restraint in front of these two Taifu.

When they sat down with each other in the hall, Director Wang said with a smile: "The two Taiwanese dukes came to see each other this time, it should also be for the sake of Master Wang, right?" ”

The two of them were bowing their heads at this time and thinking about how to open the topic, and when they heard Director Wang directly break it, they simply stopped talking about it, so Zhuge Hui said first: "Yes, I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it." At the beginning of the year, His Majesty the Emperor got married, when Duke Xi and his horses were all in the court, and when he talked about side affairs, he had already talked about the fact that he would join forces to clear out the chaotic people in the countryside such as northern Henan and Huaibei. Unexpectedly, Wang Shi's troops went out this time, and it turned out to be a succession of good news, and even went straight to Yecheng, Hebei. This is the only achievement, and it is far better than Zu Zhenxi! ”

After hearing this, Chu Yi said: "The two things are still not discussed, when Zuzhenxi was in turmoil, Jiangdong had not yet established a tripod, so he could only make a rash appointment. Now the royal industry is thriving, peaceful inside and outside, and the morale and people's strength are used outside, and it is also fortunate to have good ministers and live up to the king's use. ”

Director Wang sat in the middle of the seat, just smiled and listened to the different evaluations of the two of them on Liyang's victory, and was not in a hurry to express his opinion. or a detachment from the outside, without the limitations of his own position, he can better understand the anxiety of these two because of Liyang's victory.

Although the official good news has not yet entered the capital, all parties have their own news channels to learn about it, and because Chu Yi and Zhuge Hui are in power, the news they have learned is more detailed and specific.

Then the two of them talked about the details, Director Wang only knew a rough idea, and when he heard many details, including those amazing battle victories, he was also shocked for a while, and he was even more impressed by the amazing strength that the Huainan Governor's Mansion now has.

"I came to visit Dazai today, also because of this high victory, how to deal with it in the future, Dazai has been in charge of state affairs for a long time, and he has repeatedly asked for a ceremony, hoping to get a guide or two."

After talking about many details of the battle of the Yellow River, Chu Yi said again. There is more than one smart person in this world, and it is naturally impossible for Chu Yi to ignore the things that the two generations of the Wang family have discussed and thought about before.

The Huainan Army's victory in Liyang this time is not far from the Huaishang victory in the early years. If the latter is a battle to save the country from a deep geographical advantage, then the former highlights the offensive nature of the Huainan Wang's division to restore Xinjiang and rejuvenate the country.

Once it is officially transmitted back to Jiangdong, it is conceivable how much impact it will have on the situation in Jiangdong, and it will make people realize that the original Jinzuo Wang Division is already so powerful, even if it attacks thousands of miles to fight in Hebei, it can still break the thief army, which will make people's hearts even more excited, regardless of the truth, and the internal and external noise will drive the Taicheng center to invest more manpower and material resources in Jiangbei and Huainan.

However, Chu Yi and Zhuge Hui, as incumbent Taiwan assistants, naturally know that only stability in Jiangdong at present can be regarded as the best support for Sheji and Jiangbei military affairs. Therefore, they came to visit together, called asking for advice, but in fact, they were also warning Director Wang, the first person in the opposition at the moment, not to take advantage of this to cause chaos. Of course, in addition, I really want to hear Director Wang's opinion.

Director Wang shook his head and smiled after hearing this: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the two of you, as you can see, I'm just an old and undead idle man at the moment. ”

No matter how unwilling he is to be lonely, it is impossible for him to express his opinion at this time.

The two were not surprised to hear Director Wang's answer. The so-called transcendent status, that is because there is no stake in each other, if Director Wang has any too strong intentions, then the transcendent posture will naturally no longer be, and the people at the table will naturally join forces to suppress this person who wants to return to the situation first, and then they will fight each other.

Since Director Wang was also willing to maintain this tacit understanding, the demeanor of the two became more relaxed, and then Chu Yucai said: "Before the Jieshu, Huainan had already entered the capital by secret letter, and said that there was no spare strength to continue to fight Hebei, so he asked Taichung to stabilize the river line and enter the old capital of Luoyang to destroy the thief and the leopard. At that time, the armies of Xuzhou will also accompany them all the way. ”

And so it was!

After Director Wang heard this, he sighed secretly in his heart, and just asked: "Gong Xi is still older than me, can he still fight in armor?" ”

"Gong Xi will not follow the army, and he will invite the town. Liang Gongxin said that the great victory in Liyang and the great strength of the army are really rare, and the ranks tend to fight, and there is no time to enter the ......"

When Chu Yi said this, there was already a trace of helplessness in his words. The Huainan Army's autonomy is too strong, although it reported to Taicheng for military service at the beginning of the year, Taichung originally thought that at most it was to kill Chen Guang and other rebels, but he didn't expect that the army would get out of control more and more, and finally directly defeated Yecheng. With such a great achievement, Taichung has no reason to blame Shen Weizhou for making his own decisions.

Now it is even more coerced by the Xuzhou Army, and when Taichung has not made a clear statement, he went straight to Luoyang, and even Xi Jian has clearly expressed his support, and the trend of getting out of control is becoming more and more obvious.

Zhuge Hui also said on the side: "In the early years, Huai Shang talked about merit, and he had already lost a little to Liang Gong, and now he is spreading the good news, which is just right for Ming." But even so, the two towns are still not coordinated. Therefore, the Taiwan discussed, can the king of Huainan supervise the two towns and plan the old country of Heluo? ”

When Director Wang heard this, he understood the intentions of the two. Liyang's victory must be rewarded, but Shen Weizhou cannot be completely laissez-faire. First, because of his old merits, Shen Weizhou was officially appointed as the assassin of Yuzhou, but he did not recognize his qualifications to supervise the Xuzhou army, and even did not hesitate to move out of the king of Huainan to forcibly block it.

The Huainan army captured Yecheng so quickly, and it is conceivable that the possibility of success is extremely high if it attacks Heluo again. With the Huainan King and the Governor of the two towns, not only can they go once, but after the battle of Heluo is over, they can also have more ways to intervene in the post-war distribution.

At least King Zong opened the mansion, especially the King of Huainan is also the son of Su Zu, the emperor's brother-in-law, and the specifications are far beyond his subordinates, even if Shen Weizhou has great achievements, he is just a subordinate official of the palace. And you can take advantage of the time when you are selecting a subordinate for the king of Huainan, and stuff some children of the family into this metropolitan governor's mansion, and the rain and dew will be stained. In the future, even if they succeed in recovering Heluo, these people will be able to take advantage of the situation to enter Si and Yu, and it is impossible to allow Shen Weizhou to monopolize power.

After understanding the intentions of these two people, Director Wang was already emotional, on the one hand, he lamented that Shen Weizhou's outstanding ability had become a recognized thing, and the Taiwan assistants didn't even think that they would fail; On the other hand, he lamented that the rise of the Shen family had already become a general trend, and even the ruling Taifu was difficult to obstruct, so he actually chose this almost inferior way to fight for merit.

Whether this method is bright or not, Director Wang is not easy to judge directly, he is just curious about whether the Shen family has a response to this?

At this time, two people in a hurry suddenly rushed into the hall, and they didn't even have time to give a salute, so they each rushed to Chu Yi and Zhuge Hui and whispered in their ears for a while, and then the faces of the two suddenly changed, looking at each other, each smiling bitterly.

Then Zhuge Hui looked at Wang Dao, who was quite curious, and said: "Just now Shen Sikong left Taicheng and returned to the house, on the way to the cow was frightened, Sikong fell into the car, his life is in danger, or he will not live......"
