1085 Across the river

After his emotions gradually calmed down, Yu Yi began to think about how to deal with the current situation.

First of all, the expectations from the Queen Mother and the threats from Chu Yi can be ignored for the time being.

This is not just a matter of his own greed, but the whole topic of the Western Expedition has been brewing in Jingzhou Town for a long time, and has been substantially developed in Hanzhong. In this case, if Yu Yi suddenly announced that he would abandon the war on the Western Front, lead his army back to the town, and then participate in the power struggle in the center, the officers and men would also be in an uproar.

Therefore, it is impossible to make adjustments to his current strategic steps. The queen mother's thoughts are probably just an accidental thought of feeling the crisis for a while, once the times have changed, or the Yu family's rise in the center is too smooth, it is very likely that she will turn around and suppress her mother's family again.

As for Chu Yi, Yu Yi didn't plan to get involved at all, so he naturally didn't need to care about his threat. At least in his hands, their Yu family must only talk about merit, regardless of right and wrong, and never get involved in the central power struggle, including the wrestling between Taichung and the Shen family.

What gave Yu Yi the most headache was Shen Chong's problem. The Shen family and the Yu family are deeply entangled, and there is no lack of mutual interests in addition to human affection.

As a result, Yu Yi did this kind of evil thing, although this is just Shen Chong's words and there is no strong evidence, but Yu Yi believes that Shen Chong will not lie to himself in this regard. If it is not conclusive, Shen Chong would be extremely serious slander if he said this, even in order to maintain his family's reputation, Yu Yi could not allow Shen Chong to open his mouth.

Therefore, Yu Yi first wrote a reply to Shen Chong, apologizing throughout, and expressing his willingness to bear all the losses of the Wu people, and must stop Yu Yi from continuing to be evil, and even told Shen Chong that if he felt necessary, he could directly take tough measures against Yu Yi.

A long letter, after careful consideration, Yu Yi slowly put pen to paper after a long time. He originally planned to write another letter to Shen Zhezi, but after thinking about it, there was no need for this at all, they were both in charge of the army, and their actions were better than their statements, and his own focus on Western affairs was the best proof, and it would be superfluous to say anything.

Next is Yu Yi's question, thinking of this, Yu Yi's face became gloomy again.

Shen Chong's suggestion to Yu Yi in the letter was that he hoped to transfer Yu Yi away from Liyang to avoid Yu Yi from thinking twice and deepening their misunderstanding in this position.

There is another point, that is, to send Wang Dao's son Wang Tian back to Jiankang, so that he can return home to serve his father and rectify the family business. After all, half of the previous generation of the Wang family has withered, and there are many people in this generation who are outside the country, so Wang Yunzhi was given the opportunity to control the township capital. Once Wang Dao's son returns, Yu Wang Yunzhi is also a clamp.

Yu Yi thought about it for a while, and also felt that Shen Chong's suggestion was good. Originally, although Yu Yi stayed in Liyang, although he had his own considerations, now it seems that not only can he not become a reliable backup, but has become a hidden danger, and it is no longer meaningful to covet the key position of Liyang.

As for Wang Tian, it was Wang Dao's letter earlier asking Yu Yi to take care of him, and Yu Yi still had to give this face. Moreover, Wang Dao's son is in charge of his own house, which is also a blessing to his popularity.

But in fact, Wang Tian himself can play a limited role in Jingzhou, and Wang Yunzhi of the Wang family openly provokes the relationship between the Yu family and its allies, and Yu Yi can't afford to care about Wang Dao's face anymore, so he just sends him away.

After making up his mind, Yu Yi continued to write a sternly worded letter to Yu Yi, strictly ordering Yu Yi to immediately resign and come to Jingzhou for another appointment. At the same time, he summoned his nephew Yu Xi and instructed Yu Xi to bring hundreds of soldiers to prepare for the east, and told Yu Xi that if Yu Yi dared to disobey, he would be arrested and escorted directly.

"San Lang, you have to remember that this matter is related to the future of my family's old voice, and you must not tolerate your little father's wanton behavior, otherwise your father's name behind him will be extremely dirty, and my family will be completely lost, and there is nowhere to rely on!"

Yu Yi carefully told him again, it is helpless to let a junior perform such a task, but at the moment, Yu Tiao is still in Huai, and it will inevitably take a lot of time to toss and turn, and no one can say what will happen in it. And this kind of thing, in addition to family members, is really not good to entrust outsiders to do.

As for Wang Tian's matter, it was easier to deal with, Yu Yi directly asked people to invite him, and asked: "Has Jingyu ever communicated with his family recently?" Recently, all the guests have come down, and I also asked the characters in Jinnai, I heard that Taifu has been sick for a long time, and I am worried about hearing a lot, I don't know what it is? ”

When Wang Tian heard this, his face changed suddenly: "From whose mouth did you know that your father was seriously ill?" The day before yesterday, there was a family member who spread the word that everything was fine at home......"

When Yu Yi heard this, his face couldn't help but change again, in the few letters he received, they all mentioned that Wang Dao's state was not too good, so naturally it would not be untargeted, Wang Tian actually said this, it seemed that he really didn't know.

Then there is only one result, that is, someone has concealed the news. Or Director Wang felt that he was dying, he was not optimistic about the situation, and he was unwilling to let his son return to the danger. Or Wang Yunzhi has already started soon, concealed Wang Dao's illness, and did not want Wang Tian to return to the restraints.

In either case, the situation is extremely serious, and it may even be on the verge of breaking out!

"I heard about this, but not only from the mouth of one person, but even from the people who sent books, there are many apprehensive words."

Hearing Yu Yi say this, Wang Tian's face changed again, and he didn't even have time to say goodbye to Yu Yi, he got up and left directly, returned to his lodging to call the family who reported the news, raised his hand and ordered someone to knock him over and press him to the ground, and angrily reprimanded: "Traitor, who made you come to report a false letter and sue me for worrying about family affairs?" ”

Seeing this, the family was already panicked in their hearts, and hurriedly said: "Yes, it is Taifu, Taifu advises, I don't want Ah Lang to do family affairs......"

As he spoke, he told Director Wang Dao's true condition.

After Wang Tian heard this, he was already in tears, and at the same time he was indignant, and directly rushed up to kick and beat the family: "My father is sick and dying, even if I hide it from me, how can I hide it from the public!" You wicked slave are trying to trap me in the name of unfilial piety? ”

After understanding the true situation, Wang Tian was also anxious in his heart, and he didn't even have time to resign from Yu Yi, so he directly left the official seal and left a letter in the accommodation, and then hurriedly ordered his family to take a break and run east along the river.

After a lapse of several years, Liyang has once again become a focus of attention inside and outside the current situation. And Yu Yi, as the central figure in this focus, feels really not good.

Although the conspiracy with Wang Yunzhi had not yet been implemented, Yu Yi knew that people in the current situation would not ignore him for too long, but the reaction of all parties was so quick that it still exceeded Yu Yi's previous plan.

In his opinion, even if all parties have doubts, they will definitely set aside a period of time as a buffer and confirmation before turning around and making substantive repressions against him. But the crackdown came so quickly and so quickly that he was almost unable to defend himself.

First of all, Chu Jiye entered Xuancheng directly under the guard of Jiankang Su Guard, and took over the military and political affairs of Xuancheng, and even some of the materials left by Yu Yi in Xuancheng did not have time to withdraw, so they were directly received by Chu Jiye.

After that, all the soldiers arranged by Yu Yi in Quarry, Yuhu and other places were disarmed and expelled to Jiangbei. The means are sharp and fast, and they simply don't give Yu Yi the slightest room for compromise, that is, to sweep away all the arrangements of Yu Yi in Xuancheng.

Although Chu Jiye's movements were swift, this was also expected by Yu Yi. When Taicheng decided to take back Xuancheng because his brother Yu Bing had previously rebelled in Tainei, Yu Yi had already foreseen this step.

It seems that the front city has no shortage of restraint and wooing for the Yu family, and even faintly encourages their brothers to oppose the Shen family, but once the question touches on the core of the situation when the Yu family is officially accepted to officially return to the center, the reaction in the stage is to strictly guard against it, revealing its original colors.

It is precisely because of this realization that Yu Yi will choose to cooperate with Wang Yunzhi and no longer cast the slightest delusion on the Taiwan assistants. They just want to treat the Yu clan as a chess piece in their hands, and if Yu Yi has any prospective intentions, he still has to rely on his own efforts after all.

Chu Jiye's series of actions are actually within Yu Yi's planning, and even some of the goods and manpower lost as a result are deliberately arranged by Yu Yi. He just wanted to leave Taicheng with an embarrassing illusion that he couldn't avoid and came out in a hurry, so as to numb it a little, so as to gain greater convenience in the next step.

"Chu Jiye and his ilk are just people with a slight reputation, they are not amazing, and they are not as profound. Taichung wanted to stop me with it, but he really looked down on me too much. ”

On some public or private occasions, Yu Yi often evaluates Chu Jiye in this way, one is to stabilize people's hearts, and the other is that Chu Jiye is really not in his eyes.

Just looking at the arrangement after his arrival in Xuancheng, he knew that he was by no means a person who knew the soldiers. Although there are still tens of thousands of guards in the capital, and they have been rectified for a period of time, it is doubtful how many can be used. Under such circumstances, Chu Yu divided 3,000 troops to help Chu Jiye, and the support he gave was not small.

However, Chu Jiye completely distributed these 3,000 people along the river, and even deployed a part of the troops upstream and as far as the mouth of the water, which seemed to be well-defended and could monitor Yu Yi's every move, but that was only theoretical.

Once Yu Yi really wants to send troops to use strength, this kind of scattered defense is simply a touch of a button, and it seems that the supervision is very small, but in fact, even if this arrangement is defeated, Chu Jiye will not get the slightest usable intelligence feedback from Yu Yi's troops.

From this point of view, probably Chu Jiye himself did not realize the severity of the situation, and he didn't think that Yu Yi had the courage to wave his troops inward, so he was more focused on posture in terms of arrangement, hoping to be able to deter Yu Yi.

And what really made Yu Yi feel uncomfortable was the blow that Shen Chong gave him.
