Liu Zhang ordered someone to find Xu Shu, and such a thing could only be discussed with Xu Shu.

Liu Zhang told Xu Shu in detail about Fei's words, and then asked, "If my father is not wise, where should I go?" ”

Xu Shu was not surprised by what Liu Zhang said, Chengdu was very close to Mianzhu, and the information exchange was very fast, and he already knew a lot of things, so he didn't feel anything to be shocked.

After thinking for a while, Xu Shu replied: "My lord, as far as you know, Lord Zhou Mu has long had this intention, so you don't need to worry about it. From the point of view, the governor is not a reckless man, but a seasoned man who has been in the government and the opposition for a long time, and everything is planned and then moved, and he will not easily get into danger. The state pastor has had this heart for a long time, but he has not moved, but he is just waiting for the opportunity. The last time Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, the governor did not move; Dong Zhuo abolished the young emperor and established Chen Liuwang, and the state pastor did not move; The princes of the world gathered to beg for Dong, Dong Zhuo coerced the Son of Heaven to abandon Luoyang and run to Chang'an, but the governor did not move; Dong Zhuo died, Li and Guo made a rebellion, hijacked the imperial court, and the governor did not move. From this point of view, if the governor wants to make a move, there must be a very appropriate time. ”

Xu Shu's analysis is very reasonable.

Judging from Liu Zhang's understanding of his father, Liu Yan is definitely a treacherous and cunning person, and it is impossible for him not to know the stakes of such a thing as being called emperor who is so disagreeable to the world.

However, judging from various signs, Liu Yan seems to be making some kind of preparation, and Liu Zhang has to worry.

"Yuan Zhi, from your point of view, is it possible that the old man was bewitched by someone, such as that Mrs. Lu or the like?" Liu Zhang cares about this after all.

"There is some truth in the lord's concerns. Usually demagoguery, there are two kinds of appeals, either seeking fame and fortune, or wanting to achieve great ambitions. Those who seek fame and fortune are in power and wealth, and those who have great ambitions want to show what they have learned in their chests, and even more, they want to change the world. ”

"A change of heaven?" Liu Zhang's question is because he wonders if these people want to change the world, why don't they become emperors themselves, fool others, and attach others to others.

"Yes, throughout the ages, there have been many people who have this ambition. For example, Confucius traveled to the world, Mencius said that the princes, Wei Yingshi and Qin changed the law, and Su and Qin combined the six countries, all of which are like this. ”

"From the perspective of Yuanzhi, if the Lu family bewitches his father, what should he ask for?" Liu Zhang was a little unsure of this Lu clan. I don't have such a person in my memory, as for Zhang Lu, I know that in the era of the Great Revolution of the Three Kingdoms, the era of heroes, he was a trickster at best. Zhang Lu can be remembered, but he is still stained with the light of Liu Daer and Ma Chao, otherwise no one may remember it.

Xu Shu twisted his short beard under his chin, and said thoughtfully: "If it is an ordinary woman, it is nothing more than seeking a background for herself and her family, but this Lu family, I'm afraid it's not simple." Behind the Lu family is Zhang Lu, who inherited from Zhang Liang, one of the three founding heroes of the Han Dynasty. Zhang Liang entered the Taoist Gate, the early years of the Han Dynasty government affairs were mostly influenced by it, from Gaozu to Emperor Wen Jingdi, all of them were inactive, and until Emperor Wu changed his course, respected Confucianism, deposed the hundred schools, and was far away from the Daomen. Now, there is Zhangjiao Taiping Dao first, and there is Hanzhong Wudoumi Sect, and Daomen is afraid that they want to make a comeback. Therefore, I thought that the Lu family was planning a lot of people, and it seemed that they had the ambition to change the world. ”

"Daomen wants to change the world and entrust it to a woman? It's hard to make sense when Yuan Zhi says this. In addition, Taoism takes non-action and tranquility as the main purpose, and rarely bothers with mundane affairs. Liu Zhang felt that Xu Shu's analysis was not very convincing.

"That's what the lord said. However, there is no one who pretends to be a Taoist and confuses the world with the way of heaven to seek personal fame and fortune. If you open your horns, wouldn't it be better? Zhang Jiaoyan: The sky is dead, and the yellow sky should stand. How can the sky die, and where is the yellow sky? It's just a pretext to deceive the world. Taoism is to talk about quiet and inaction, but there are very few people who really cultivate and seek the Tao, and there are Taoist words, which are mostly related to the holy virtues of heaven, earth and man, and the subtlety and righteousness, and the most easy to confuse the world. Yes, there are people with ill intentions, and they borrow more to help. ”

Even so, it's hard to let go. There are still many strange things about this matter. The children and grandchildren of my Liu family, although they are also expected to be emperors, but they have the laws of their ancestors, even if they want to, there is something to be done. In our vein, it is said that it is the clan relatives of the Han family, and the heavens are noble, but according to the example, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is 108,000 miles away from the dragon chair. Even if my father has a little ambition, he is just closing the door in Shu to be a soil emperor, saying that he covets the position of the Son of Heaven in the imperial court, Zhang really can't believe it.

If my father just wants to be the emperor in Shu, where will he put the face of the court? Where is the ancestral temple located?

Therefore, it doesn't work, it doesn't work. ”

The so-called heaven has no two days, and it is impossible for the court to have two sons of heaven. Liu Zhang felt that no matter how unwise and ambitious Liu Yan was, it was impossible not to consider the imperial court and the ancestral temple. Unless at this time, the Son of Heaven is gone, there is still a glimmer of possibility.

And then there's Mrs. Lu, what are her plans? What are the benefits? Liu Yan is called the emperor, will he make her the queen? This is absolutely impossible. Will Taoism be respected as the state religion and restore Huang Lao's rule of power? It's even more unlikely. Therefore, Liu Zhang couldn't figure out what Mrs. Lu wanted to do.

"The lord doesn't know, according to the news we got from Mianzhu, Guo Fengxiao traveled to Shu before, and once made a false word to pass on the jade seal of the country to the state pastor. Presumably, the state pastor was tempted. Moreover, it is reported that Lord Zhou Mu has sent someone to contact Ma Teng, Han Sui and others, and I am afraid that there will be some action. Come to think of it, only when the court changes, can the governor be the emperor.

In addition, as far as the Taoist is concerned, the country is governed by inaction, and the fewer mundane things and disputes, the better. Looking at the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, the high road risk of Shu Mountain is the most in line with the small country and the widows, maybe it is not known that Daomen has taken a fancy to Shu. ”

"That being the case, what does Yuan Zhi think will be done by the state pastor to contact Ma Teng? When to move? When will you be called emperor? Should I persuade one or two, or how should I act? Liu Zhang asked a bunch of questions.

"As Shu said in the foreword, if the state pastor wants to be the emperor or what, he naturally needs a change in the imperial court. Now the imperial court is controlled by Li Guo and others in the remnants of Xiliang, and the state pastor has made friends and contacts with Ma Teng, Han Sui, etc., which must be in Chang'an, in Li, Guo and others. The two elder brothers of the lord are still in Chang'an, and there are many loyal ministers of the Han court, so he thinks that the state pastor may want to cooperate with the outside and take down Li and Guo. If you can do this, whether you have it or abolish it or call it the emperor, it is all in the mind of the state pastor.

As for the specific time, it will take time to contact and prepare, and this matter must be taken advantage of its unpreparedness, so I guess that when around the first month of the next year, on the occasion of the New Year, everyone will be slack, and this time is better. ”

Xu Shu twisted his beard and spoke eloquently.

You have to admire Xu Shu, these analyses are very close to historical facts.

It's a pity that Liu Zhang, who only cares about playing games, doesn't know any historical facts at all. After listening to Xu Shu's analysis, Liu Zhang couldn't help but ask: "If this is the case, how should we deal with it?" What if this is a success? ”

"It's hard to say, it's hard to say. Although they both belong to Xiliang, Li Guo's department is the real elite of the Han Dynasty, they used to be the border army of the Han Dynasty, and they have fought against the Huns and other Hu people for a long time, and their combat power is the best in the world. As for Ma Teng and Han Sui's department, it was after the civil strife in Liangzhou, the state assassin history was to quell the chaos, and the people who were temporarily recruited, and later gradually controlled by Ma Teng, Han Sui and others. If it is a normal battle, Ma Teng Han Sui and the others will be far inferior.

The lord please think about it, Lu Bu's martial arts are unparalleled in the world, and he has an iron cavalry under his command and state, after Dong Zhuo's death, Li Guo and others forced Chang'an, and Lu Bu did not flee Hanoi and did not dare to fight. From this point of view, it is difficult to predict. Unless you can combine the inside and the outside, you are not prepared to attack it.

Yes, my lord, it is better for us to wait and see.

First, observe whether the governor has the intention of using troops in the north.

Second, now the prestige of the lord is enough, but the strength is far from enough, and it is necessary to plan early. ”
