Chapter 998: Successful Persuasion

Wang San was able to go to Pengcheng, Wang Wu was naturally very happy, but he was not very clear about Wang San's intention, so he hurriedly asked: "Why does the third brother have time to come to Pengcheng!" Isn't there something important? ”

"Yes! Third brother, if there is something important, let's talk about it. Wang Liu also hurriedly asked.

Obviously, Wang Wu and Wang Liu both felt that Wang San would not rush to Pengcheng without a reason, and Wang San's ability to appear in Pengcheng at this time was enough to show that there was something important.

When Wang San heard this, he immediately put on a displeased look and said in a low voice: "My brother came to visit my brother, do you still need anything important, the two brothers treat my brother as an outsider!" ”

When Wang Wu and Wang Liu heard this, they both immediately felt that they were a little speechless, and hurriedly smiled.

"Third brother, we hunted a lot of game in the mountains today, since my brother is here, let's eat meat and drink wine together, and have a good gathering." Wang Liuliu said loudly.

"Third brother, the wine and food will be ready soon, let's go to the main hall and sit down first, brother, please." Wang Wu hurriedly invited.

When Wang San heard this, he left the guest room with Wang 5 and Wang 6 and walked in the direction of the main hall.

After Wang Wu walked out of the guest room, he immediately ordered the entourage beside him to prepare wine and food, and stew all the game he had just hunted, and let his subordinates do their best to settle the hundred retinues outside the mansion so as not to be slack.

After chatting for a while in the main hall, the best food and wine were served, and Wang Wu asked Wang San to sit on the throne, himself on the east side, and Wang Liu on the west side.

"Third brother, these are the prey we just caught in the mountains, third brother, try it while it's hot!" Wang Wu said enthusiastically.

Wang San nodded and tasted them one by one.

"Yes, that's good! This is supposed to be fresh hare meat, this one is wild dog meat, this is pheasant. And this one is quail meat. Wang San opened his mouth and praised.

When Wang Wu heard this, he couldn't stop laughing, paused, and hurriedly said: "The third brother is really amazing, he can guess what kind of meat it is with just one bite, it seems that he eats it often!" Ha ha! He laughed.

Wang San nodded and said, "That's right." These game, my brother is also often eaten in Luoyang City, every time the king goes out hunting, my brother is accompanied, and the wild hunted can naturally get some. ”

"The third brother, Brother Hua An, is now the king, and he has also become a member of the Great Jin royal family. I really didn't expect it! Wang Wu said with a sigh.

"Yes! Third brother, when we were in Yin's Pavilion, we didn't feel that Brother Hua An's was any different from us, they were all children of poor families, but now he is a king with royal blood, and this change is really too big. Wang Liu also said with emotion.

When Wang San heard this, he said: "Fifth brother, sixth brother, the king's life experience is more tortuous. I can't tell for a while, but. He is still very good to his brother and often misses his brothers but now his identity is different and he can't leave Luoyang City rashly so. And the elder brother came up on behalf of the king and greeted the two brothers. ”

When Wang Wu and Wang Liu heard this, they glanced at each other and hugged their fists together to thank them.

After drinking too much, Wang San felt that the time was ripe. So, he asked tentatively: "The two brothers are stationed in Xuzhou, how are they doing?" Have you ever encountered any difficulties? ”

"Don't hide it from my brother, how about our lives? No, when the sixth brother is fine, he will come to Pengcheng and hunt with me. Wang Wu said happily.

"That's right, brother, since Yin Hao was demoted, Xie Assassin Shi Du Military, our life has become much better, and then, my brother assisted Wang Shang to recover Yanzhou and Qingzhou, so that the bandits and bandits are gone, and we have nothing to do at all, every day is hunting, training soldiers, and spending our days freely." Wang Liu followed.

Obviously, what they said was the truth, since Yin Hao was demoted, no one gave them small shoes to wear, and Xie An, in order to win over the generals in Yangzhou, adopted a gentle policy for all the generals to stabilize the hearts of the army, and then Hua'an recovered Yanzhou and Qingzhou, so that the thieves were rampant Yan and Qingzhou, became stable a lot, especially a large number of soldiers and horses have become the army under Hua'an, so that no thieves can threaten the safety of Xuzhou, Wang Wu and Wang Liu's small days, Naturally, it becomes very comfortable and comfortable.

Seeing that Wang Wu and Wang Liu's lives were not bad, Wang San was not very happy in his heart, because now they have no resentment towards the imperial court, and in this way, it may be a little difficult for them to choose to support Hua'an, and once they oppose standing on Hua'an's side, it will be extremely unfavorable to Hua'an's plan to move the capital.

However, fortunately, Huaan has long understood the situation in Xuzhou and prepared several sets of plans for emergencies.

Wang San looked at the two of them and said softly: "This Yin Hao is incapable, it is really happy to be deposed!" Today's imperial court is Xie Tingshi's military governor, and my brother also knows that this Xie Tingshi is very capable, and he is proud of the army, and the two brothers can be under Xie Tingshi's command, which is also a blessing! After speaking, he looked at Wang Wu and Wang Liu.

Obviously, in order to complete his task, Wang San is playing a little trick to catch and indulge, first praising Xie An to show the fairness of his position, and then letting Wang Wu and Wang Liu fall into the trap they preset.

"Brother said with a smile, under the command of Xie Tingshi, our life has become a lot more comfortable, but, it's just a mess of life, Xie Tingshi is a good person and won't embarrass us, but we have also lost the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, this position of General Pei, I'm afraid it will be difficult to rise one step further, unlike my brother, who is already a general of Pingbei." Wang Wu said softly.

"Yes! Brother, the thieves in Yangzhou and Xuzhou have basically been exterminated, and we have nothing to do now! Wang Liu said with a little unwillingness.

Obviously, Wang Wu and Wang Liu are not very satisfied with the current situation, after all, people want to go up, and no one wants to stand still.

And Wang San also heard a little jealousy from their words, after all, Wang San is now following Hua'an's side, which can be described as a spring breeze, and his status is increasing day by day, and although the two of them have a very comfortable life, they have lost the way to climb up. In this way, how can they not have some regrets?

Seeing that Wang Wu and Wang Liu confided their hearts, Wang San hurriedly said: "The two brothers don't need to be discouraged, if it is undecided today, Youzhou and Pingzhou have not been recovered, and the Western Regions have been separated from the Great Jin Dynasty for a long time. In this way, it is a great opportunity for us to make contributions, how can there be no opportunity for promotion? ”

"The third brother naturally has the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, but we only need to hold on to Xuzhou, and we don't have the opportunity to go to Liaodong and the Western Regions." Wang Wu said.

"Yes! Third brother, this Xie Thorn Shi is very good, but he just doesn't have much ambition. Many years ago, we proposed to lead troops to attack Yanzhou and pacify the rebels, but Xie Tingshi did not agree to us attacking the rebels in Yanzhou on the grounds that our army had been defeated repeatedly, but now this rebel army has been attached to the king, and it can be regarded as the army of the Great Jin, which can be seen. Xie Tingshi only thought about maintaining Yangzhou and Xuzhou, and he didn't think about it at all. Let's go to recover the lost territory, after all, the king's soldiers and horses are in the north, and the soldiers and horses under the king's command can recover the lost territory, without our army's help, we are now only old in this Xuzhou land. Wang Liu said. He shook his head regretfully.

Obviously, they knew Xie An very well, and felt that as long as Xie An supervised the soldiers and horses of Yangzhou, they would not be allowed to have the opportunity to make meritorious contributions. After all, sending troops is risky, now, Xie An only has less than 200,000 soldiers and horses in Yangzhou and Xuzhou, and the loss is a little less, in order to maintain the status of the imperial court, he is naturally unwilling to send soldiers and horses to expedition, besides, the Yangzhou army has suffered too many defeats during the period of Yin Haodu, and the loss of soldiers and horses and materials is very much, in order to prevent another large-scale defeat, Xie An feels that he must recuperate, and try not to fight if he can not fight, and recover the lost land. Naturally, Hua'an, who has a large number of troops, will solve it, and they don't need to worry about it at all.

When Wang San heard this, the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and he said, "Didn't the two brothers really see the true intention of Xie Tingshi not to let you send troops?" ”

"What are Xie Tingshi's intentions?" Wang Wu hurriedly asked.

"The third brother thinks that Xie Tingshi has bad intentions." Wang Liu also asked loudly.

Wang San thought for a moment, and said: "Have you ever thought about it, if you make meritorious contributions on the battlefield, your status will improve a lot, and the number of soldiers and horses you have mastered will also increase a lot, and you used to be the old department of the king, this Xie Tingshi is very clear about this, so naturally you can't be allowed to make meritorious contributions, Xie Tingshi doesn't trust you very much!" After speaking, he looked at the two of them.

When Wang Wu and Wang Liu heard this, they couldn't help but nod slightly, what Wang San said was not wrong, they were indeed Hua'an's old department, and now Hua'an has a large number of soldiers, Xie An, as the assassin of Yangzhou, has made necessary restrictions on Hua'an's old department, which is naturally reasonable, and there is nothing wrong with it.

"It seems that Xie Tingshi treats me very well on the surface, but secretly he is guarding us!" Wang Wu said unhappily.

"Xie Tingshi did not regain the lost territory for the imperial court, but was suspicious of us, which is really disappointing." Wang Liu also complained.

Obviously, through Wang San's explanation, they began to be dissatisfied with Xie An, and wrote their dissatisfaction on their faces.

Wang San saw that the time was ripe, and hurriedly said: "The two brothers don't have to be angry, now the king has millions of soldiers, which poses a certain threat to the imperial court, in order to maintain the stability of the imperial court, it is natural for Xie Tingshi to be suspicious of the king and the king's old department, there is nothing to make a fuss about, and the two brothers should not blame Xie Tingshi." After speaking, he looked at the two of them.

"Third brother, we heard that the king is a descendant of the king of Chu, and his bloodline should be more noble than the current emperor, and if it is counted as a generation, he is still the emperor's uncle today, if the king can rule the world, it is not a good thing!" Wang Wuzheng said.

"Yes! Fifth brother, since we are the king's old department, and the court is suspicious of us, why don't we just do two things and go directly to the king? Wang Liu looked at Wang Wu and said loudly.

Obviously, the two of them know very well in their hearts that Wang San is a big celebrity around Hua'an, and his relationship with Hua'an is extraordinary, and he is also his brother, for this reason, saying these words in front of Wang San will not cause any serious consequences at all, besides, they will not believe that Wang San came to Pengcheng this time to reminisce about the past, they feel that Wang San came here mostly to recruit them and seek their support, and they are not too satisfied with the imperial court, so they are naturally willing to accept Wang San's kindness. and chose to take refuge in Hua'an.

Seeing that Wang Wu and Wang Liu had already expressed their hearts, Wang San seemed very happy, but at this time, Hua An did not have the intention of replacing the current emperor, so he naturally could not show his intention to rebel.

"The two brothers can remember the old love, the elder brother is very happy, I believe that the king will be very happy after he knows, but the king is loyal and has no intention of replacing the current emperor, and the two brothers should not mention this kind of rebellious thing again." Wang San looked at the two of them and said.

"Third brother, just say it clearly! What should we do. Wang Wu asked loudly.

"Yes! Third brother, there are still things that cannot be said between brothers, we will listen to them. Wang Liu also said loudly.

Seeing this, Wang San nodded, and said: "Since the two brothers are so refreshing, the elder brother also said, you should know that Luoyang City has been recovered by the king for several years, and now, the palace of Luoyang City is being repaired, and it has entered the end of the repair, and there is still more than a month at the earliest, and all the repairs can be completed, and after the palace of Luoyang City is completely renovated, the king intends to persuade the imperial court to let the imperial court move the capital to Luoyang City, after all, the original capital of the Great Jin Dynasty should be Luoyang City, Jiankang City can only be regarded as a temporary capital. ”

"Oh, the king plans to let the imperial court move the capital to Luoyang City, which is a good thing! After moving the capital, my Great Jin Dynasty's rule over the north can be strengthened, which is a good thing for the country and the people! Wang Wu hurriedly expressed his support.

"Yes! Jiankang City is too remote, and Luoyang City is still suitable for the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty. Wang Liu also opened his mouth to express his support.

Wang San smiled and said: "It's rare for the two brothers to be so supportive, however, the king is worried that some officials in the imperial court will try their best to return to Luoyang City, especially the scholars who own many real estate and land properties in the south of the Yangtze River. ”

"In that case, third brother, what can we do?" Wang Wuzheng asked.

Seeing that Wang Wu and Wang Liu both really wanted to help, Wang Shang nodded happily and said: "What the two brothers have to do is very simple, that is, to contact their henchmen, and after the king wrote to the court to request the relocation of the capital, they wrote to the court together to echo the king and put pressure on the court."
