Zhou Yafu left Weiyang Palace in the east, and after inspecting the palace forbidden, he returned to the lieutenant's residence and began to deal with today's official documents.

Before he opened the bamboo slip, someone came to him: "General, so Wu Xiang Yuan Gong asks to see!" ”

"Please!" Zhou Yafu immediately put down the bamboo slip in his hand, held up his clothes, and stood on the side of the lobby with the etiquette of a junior, waiting for the visitor.

The people who can make Zhou Yafu so courteous are all over the court, except for Prime Minister Shen Tujia, there is only one person: Yuan An, a Chu person!

At the beginning, the princes and ministers destroyed Zhulu together, and Zhou Bo, the father of Zhou Yafu, entered the camp of the Northern Army alone, relying on his personal prestige to make the Northern Army defect, which successfully launched a coup d'état and killed all the princes of Zhulu.

Subsequently, Zhou Bo and Chen Ping single-handedly planned the decision to support Emperor Taizong Xiaowen.

In the following years, all the great policies of the Han family came from the hands of Zhou Bo and Chen Ping, and the so-called Son of Heaven was just a puppet.

But everything flourishes and declines.

Soon Chen Ping died of illness, and Zhou Bo was unable to support himself, and finally Emperor Taizong Xiaowen found an opportunity, dismissed the position of prime minister, and rushed back to the feudal country.

Since ancient times, how many powerful ministers can die well after losing their authority?

Who is Zhou Bo?

Heroes and heroes killed in the sea of corpses and blood!

How is it possible to sit still?

So he prepared his troops at home in case of an emergency, but who knew that the news had leaked and was reported.

At the time of crisis, it was Yuan Ang who stepped forward to prove that Zhou Bo had no intention of rebelling, which saved the lives of hundreds of members of the Zhou family.

Since ancient times, it is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow!

With this incense, Zhou Yafu has always treated Yuan Ang as a benefactor.

Not long after, a man wearing a virtuous crown walked in, and Zhou Yafu hurriedly bowed when he saw it: "I've seen Yuan Gong!" ”

The man nodded, looked at it casually, and said, "I heard that the lieutenant saw the Son of Heaven today, do you know what the attitude of the Son of Heaven is?" ”

"Duke Yuan, please sit down ......" Zhou Yafu accompanied him with a smiling face, invited Yuan Ang to the chairman, and replied: "Your Majesty is naturally advocating cutting the feudal domain!" ”

"I know this!" Yuan Ang sat down and shook his head: "The question I ask you is: Who does Your Majesty want to appoint as the prince?" ”

"What, even I'm hiding it?" Yuan Ang looked up at Zhou Yafu with a smile, and asked aggressively: "Did Your Majesty give an order to the lieutenant not to reveal that this government is known to me?" ”

Yuan Ang is now in the darkest time of his life.

After the new monarch ascended the throne last year, Chao Cuo advocated cutting the feudal domain.

But Yuan Ang vigorously opposed, not only opposed, but also used his connections throughout the government and the opposition to connect a huge opposition coalition.

This is tantamount to a whip on the tiger's ass.

It immediately provoked a violent reaction.

With the acquiescence of the Son of Heaven, Chao Cuo alluded to the impeachment of Yuan Ang for accepting bribes from King Wu without permission and not being a minister, so he was removed from his official position and title, and demoted to a concubine in the end.

If this is changed to other ministers, I am afraid that it will be ruined from now on.

But Yuan Ang is an exception.

In Yuan An's family, since the founding of Emperor Gao, he has been an official and has tried local counties and counties.

After Yuan Ang came out, he made good connections everywhere.

For example, when Zhou Bo and Chen Ping were powerful, Yuan Ang went to Emperor Taizong Xiaowen and said a lot of bad things about Zhou Bo, the central idea was that Zhou Bo forgot his righteousness when he saw profit, and he was not a minister of the society, and 'His Majesty was humble, the minister was rude, and he did not take it for His Majesty'.

Zhou Bo was driven back to the feudal country, and Yuan Ang made a great effort in it.

As a result, Yuan Ang became a well-known and upright minister in the government and the opposition.

Then Zhou Bo was martyred, and he jumped out again to help Zhou Bo wash away his grievances, so that he could spend his old age in peace and avoid being insulted by the knife and pen officials.

This made the Zhou family grateful to Dade up and down......

Such a long-sleeved person who is good at dancing and knows how to make good connections, naturally some people are willing to lend a helping hand when he is in danger.

Like Zhou Yafu, like the current Prime Minister Shen Tujia, and the Empress Dowager Dou of Changle Palace are all Yuan An's talismans.

Therefore, although Yuan Ang lost his official position, his influence did not decline at all.

Although he is not in the imperial court, the imperial court still retains the taste of his legend.

Hearing Yuan An's question, Zhou Yafu hurriedly shook his head and said: "How could His Majesty give such a confused edict, not only that, but His Majesty often misses Yuan Gong!" ”

Zhou Yafu did not lie.

The Son of Heaven did express his longing for Yuan Ang in front of him.

As for whether it is true or false, I don't know.

Speaking of which, Zhou Yafu briefly told Yuan Ang about today's events.

After hearing this, Yuan An's eyes widened, and he looked at Zhou Yafu like a monster.

"What's wrong with Yuan Gong?" When Zhou Yafu saw it, he was also a little panicked, and immediately asked, "But what did I do wrong?" ”

"It's not just wrong...... Yuan Ang sighed: "You have dug the grave for yourself!" ”

If you want to say who knows the two generations of the Han family best, Yuan Ang dares to say second, and no one dares to say first.

Yuan Ang explained: "What kind of person is Your Majesty? Holy Son of Heaven! His Majesty asked the prince who belonged to him, but in fact, it was just a temptation, and he had already decided in his heart! Jun recklessly expressed his opinion, this is the way to take trouble! Have you forgotten your father's sigh of 'I have tasted a million troops, and today I know the value of prison officials'? ”

Hearing Yuan Ang say this, Zhou Yafu remembered his father's encounter back then, and suddenly his back was cold.

So, in a panic, Zhou Yafu bowed to Yuan Ang and said, "Please teach me Gong Yuan!" ”

Yuan Ang laughed in his heart, but said: "Fortunately, it's not too late to make amends, for today's plan, only by relying on the true prince can there be a turnaround!" ”

"In the general's opinion, who is the true prince?" Yuan Ang stared at Zhou Yafu and asked.

Zhou Yafu thought about it, pondered for a while, and asked hesitantly: "Second son Liu De?" ”

"Good!" Yuan Ang smiled and said: "I have been observing the imperial court for a long time, since the empress dowager, the prince Liu De has sprung up, standing out among the sons, there is a statue of the lord of the society, I try to invite the people of Chang'an to look at the image of Liu De from afar, and come to humanity: This hidden dragon is in the abyss, and he is the lord of the world!" ”

In fact, the last few sentences are all nonsense, what kind of hopeful person, this kind of trick, Yuan Ang is tired of playing it!

However, Zhou Yafu couldn't stop believing in this.

Yuan Ang came over today, in fact, to build momentum for Liu De.

Who asked Liu De to help him, he Yuan Ang admired Kong Zhongni's sentence the most: repay virtue with virtue and repay grievances with straightforwardness.

"Spring and Autumn" said that the ninth generation can still be repaid!

Yuan Ang felt that not only the revenge of the ninth generation could be avenged, but also the grace of the ninth generation should be avenged!

What's more, Yuan Ang felt that Liu De had a temper with him no matter his style of action or the stories that came out.

Such a prince does not support?

Who to support?

"So how do I get closer?" Zhou Yafu is a military general after all, and after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't think of how to eliminate this disaster without **.

"Uncle Tian is now idle at home, and the general has been friends with Uncle Tian for generations, so he can write a letter to his family, and ask Uncle Tian to come to Chang'an to assist the prince......" Yuan Angcheng bamboo in his chest: "Uncle is an upright elder, and the four masters of the three dynasties will never lose their integrity, and the prince needs such Zhongzheng ministers to help him day and night!" ”

"This ......" Zhou Yafu hesitated: "Uncle is old, I'm afraid he can't do it!" ”

The Uncle Tian mentioned by Yuan Ang is the loyal minister who has been friends and married all over the world for generations of his Zhou family, the former Han Dynasty Taishou, so the minister of Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao.

This person's most famous deeds are that after Zhang Ao's house slave plotted to assassinate Emperor Gao Liu Bang, he voluntarily cut off his hair, wore brown clothes, and rushed to Chang'an to follow Zhang Ao to prison together.

This matter is praised all over the world, and at this time, the name Uncle Tian is synonymous with loyalty!

Yuan Ang laughed and said, "It's okay, the general just writes a letter, if Uncle Tian hears that he is urging the prince to help the righteous way, he will definitely be happy!" ”

That's for sure.

This kind of thing, for people like Uncle Tian, is simply an irresistible temptation and confusion!

Even if you can't walk, you will climb to Chang'an!
