Chapter 18: The Queen's Nanny
Guo Wei accepted Feng Dao's suggestion, but Guo Wei still had a trace of doubt.
"Taishi, if the throne falls into the hands of the Shatuo clan, their power is not weak, if they crusade against Guo under the banner of the emperor, how should they deal with it?"
Feng Dao smiled indifferently, "Lord, Shatuo people returned to Tang a hundred years ago, as the canines of the imperial court, constantly fighting, there were only 30,000 Shatuo people back then, over the years, Shatuo generals withered, lack of successors, as long as the lord temporarily stabilizes the hearts of the people, and then use a year or two to eradicate them one by one, the world will naturally be able to settle down, at that time the emperor will come naturally, and there will be no obstacles!" ”
Lao Feng Dao outlined the whole step, Ye Hua nodded frequently when he heard it, he was worthy of an old fox, and his means were powerful.
Shatuobing existed as a mercenary, in the hands of Li Keyong and Li Cunmiao's father and son, the power reached its peak, but after years of fighting, the internal wear and tear was serious, and the strong soldiers were either dead or old and unusable.
In the Later Jin and Later Han dynasties, the national situation was not as good as day by day, and the territory was obviously inferior to that of the Later Tang Dynasty, which is a clear proof of the decline of the Shatuo people.
Since the general trend is like this, it is better to wait for a few years to let the Shatuo people naturally withdraw from the stage of history.
With the current Central Plains, nothing is as important as recuperation, and if you keep fighting, even if you win, it will excessively consume the people's power and shake the foundation of the country.
Guo Wei pondered again and again, and finally bowed his head, "Old lady, do you think it is better to let someone succeed to the throne?" ”
Feng Dao grabbed his beard and thought for a while: "The first emperor also has a son, named Liu Chengxun, who was the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, and supported him to succeed to the throne, and his name is justified, and this person is not in good health and is easy to control, what does the lord think?" ”
Guo Wei's face was very ugly, and he shook his head slightly.
"Old lady, Liu Chengxun is dead!"
"Ahh
Feng Dao was taken aback, "A few months ago, the old man saw him, although his body was weak, but he didn't die, why would?" ”
Guo Wei smiled bitterly, "It's Brother Xiufeng, a few days ago, his men and horses chased and rebelled around Liu Chengxun's mansion, and they made a big commotion, scaring Liu Chengxun to death." ”
Ye Hua blinked, where did he not understand, what is chasing rebellion? It is clear that Wang Jun fell in love with Liu Chengxun's house and family business, so he deliberately killed people, so that he could take advantage of the situation to occupy it.
Although Ye Hua also agreed to confiscate corrupt officials and corrupt officials, confiscate their property, and use it for military purposes. But it would be too much to casually kill a very valuable prince.
Wang Jun, this old guy is simply disrespectful, that is, Boss Guo has a good temper, if he is replaced, he may be severely punished.
Ye Hua secretly warned himself not to get involved with Wang Jun.
Thinking like this, Feng Dao looked very unhappy, the best chess piece was gone, so only Liu Zhiyuan's nephew was left.
"Lord, how is Liu Yun?"
mentioned Liu Yun, Guo Wei frowned, this person is the nephew of Liu Zhiyuan, the ancestor of the Later Han Dynasty, and was later accepted as a righteous son, is Liu Chengyou's cousin, and is currently serving as the envoy of Xuzhou Jiedu.
Liu Yun is young and not worth mentioning, so it is appropriate for him to be the emperor.
But the problem is that Liu Yun's father is not a good stubble, this person's name is Liu Chong, and he is the younger brother of Liu Zhiyuan, the ancestor of the Later Han Dynasty.
Since Li Keyong, Hedong Town has been a place where strong soldiers and famous generals have come out, and it is the base camp of the Shatuo people, with the strongest combat power and should not be underestimated.
What is even more disturbing is that Hedong is backed by the Khitan, and when necessary, the Khitan soldiers can be led south, and the two forces can be combined to change the dynasty.
The person Guo Wei fears the most is Liu Chong, who regards him as the biggest stumbling block to becoming the emperor.
If Liu Chong's son is allowed to inherit the throne and father and son join forces, wouldn't it be invincible in the world.
"Old lady, Liu Yun is not a child, but what about Liu Chong? That's a wolf! ”
Seeing that Guo Wei was worried, Feng Dao smiled slightly, "My lord, if Liu Yun is not allowed to succeed to the throne, Liu Chong will be unscrupulous, but once his son becomes the emperor, Liu Chong will suffer from gains and losses, and he will have concerns." The old man thought that even if he wanted to deal with Liu Chong, he should let Liu Yun succeed him first. ”
"What about the imperial court, if Liu Yun summons Liu Chong to assist in the court, won't he put me in the air?"
Feng Dao shook his head, "No, there is still one person in the lord's hand." ”
"Who?"
"Empress Dowager Li!"
……
Feng Dao and Guo Wei talked, Ye Hua had no room to interject, just silently observed, and kept thinking. He finally saw the skills of Old Feng Dao, and facing Taishi Feng, Ye Hua felt that his IQ was not enough for the first time.
Grandma, don't think that if you are traversing, you can play with the ancients in the palm of your hand, you were just a little common man in your last life, and your vision is just like that.
But Feng Dao can be in the most chaotic and troubled times, and with this skill, he is enough to be proud of two thousand years and kill 10,000 Ye Hua in seconds.
Feng Dao's advice to Guo Wei is like this, first of all, respect the Empress Dowager Li and let the Empress Dowager Li appoint Guo Wei as the supervisor of the state, so that Guo Wei can justify his name and take over the civil and military power.
Even if Liu Yun is welcomed into Kaifeng, he is just a puppet emperor, so he doesn't care.
Liu Yun wanted to combine with his father Liu Chong to compete for power, so Guo Wei used the Empress Dowager Li to suppress Liu Yun, and if necessary, he could even let the Empress Dowager listen to the government.
Someone wants to ask, will Empress Dowager Li listen to Guo Wei's words?
If she doesn't listen, she can't do it!
Although Liu Yun is her righteous son, her parents are there, once Liu Yun is really in power, Empress Dowager Li will only be driven to the cold palace, lonely and old, and the end will be bleak.
What's more, there are also many people in the Li family, Guo Wei can hold them in his hands, and then control the Empress Dowager Li.
All in all, Liu Yun became the emperor, and he could not threaten Guo Wei.
On the contrary, if Liu Yun becomes the emperor, Liu Chong will have illusions and will not go all out to be an enemy of Guo Wei. When the time is ripe, Guo Wei can cut off Hedong Town, eliminate Liu Chong, and remove the biggest obstacle......
There is no doubt that Feng Dao planned the most stable and effective path to the throne for Guo Wei.
Guo Wei pondered for a while, got up and thanked: "The old lady is really my son's room, but Liu Yun may not be willing to enter Beijing, what does the old lady think is good?" ”
Feng Dao thought for a while and said: "If the lord doesn't dislike it, let the old man go, a few years ago, when Liu Yun was in Beijing, he studied with the old man for a few months, and it can be regarded as a friendship between teachers and students, and the old man goes, he can still listen." ”
"Then there is Master Lao!"
I have to say that after this experience, Guo Wei was respectful and respectful to Feng Dao. He wrote to the Empress Dowager Li, in addition to still crowning Feng Dao as the Grand Master, he also added the title of Zhongshu Ling, appointed him as the minister of the Qincha, led the civil and military, and went to Xuzhou to welcome Liu Yun into the succession.
After Guo Wei and Feng Dao talked, they were in a comfortable mood and refreshed.
"After the state affairs are over, it's time to talk about family affairs." Guo Wei pulled Ye Hua over with a smile, "Nephew, Brother Xing is always crying, they are helpless, I have to come and ask my aunt for help." ”
Brother Xing is Xiao Guo's name, the eldest son of Guo Wei's two sons who died is named Brother Qing, the second son is named Brother Yi, and Xiao Guo is a concubine, which is not recorded in the family tree, and does not even have an official name.
After Guo Wei entered Beijing, he immediately named his son Brother Xing and included him in the Guo family tree.
"Shouyu went, the newcomers in the house are not credible, the old man is nearly half a hundred years old, only such a little flesh and blood, only entrusted to the care of his aunt, can he rest assured. If the child has the slightest mistake, I really don't know how to face the ancestors of the Guo family! ”
Speaking of this, does Ye Hua dare to refuse!
He led Guo Wei to Ye's ward, the old lady had recovered a lot and was able to walk around the yard, and when the maid brought Brother Xing over, the old lady frowned when she saw it.
"How did you raise your children thin? What a mistake! ”
Ye Shi was distressed, and immediately ordered Ye Hua to bring a bowl of milk and pour it into Brother Xing.
Don't say it, the little guy obediently opened his mouth wide, cooing and drinking, not to mention how sweet it was, so happy that Guo Wei slapped again and again, and said excitedly: "Auntie, this child has a relationship with you!" ”
Ye Hua lowered his head and said secretly: "I think it is related to the big yellow dog!" ”
