Sima Yue soon learned the whole story of the conflict between Shao Xun and Sima Ying.
He did not pay attention to the minutiae, but focused on asking about Sima Ying's expression at that time. After learning that he left with a dark face, he burst into laughter.
"How magnificent!" He knelt down on the futon, slammed the table and praised.
If he is a person praised by heaven, he is a true god general!
There were actually people in the shogunate who advised him to give up on Shao Xun, just like he gave up on Sima Yi, and found an opportunity to deliberately let him be "accidentally" caught by Shi Chao's people, and befriended Meng Jiu to buy time...
How ridiculous!
Such a fierce general and a native of Donghai, how stupid would I have to be to give up!
The princess is right, this is Tianzan! Tianzan!
"Reward!" Sima said in a hoarse voice as he became more and more excited as he thought about it.
"Your Majesty, I don't know what to reward?" Mi Huang asked softly.
Yes, what is the reward? Sima Yue was also stunned.
Promotion is temporarily impossible. He is still reorganizing the Forbidden Army. The organization has not yet been sorted out clearly and there is no vacancy.
"Has the Xiaolian Licensing been finished?" Sima Yue turned to look at Dai Yuan, the military counselor and the wine minister, and asked.
"We still have to wait until May to complete the journey. In June and July, we can officially serve as Lieutenant Sima and be issued an official seal." Dai Yuan replied.
He has actually worked very hard.
This year's promotion of filial piety and integrity in the East China Sea is a special event, and the speed can be described as very fast. Even so, he was still urged by Sikong. Dai Yuan was sullen in his heart, why is this Shao Xun so careless!
However, he soon remembered the heroic act of catching someone alive, and he was excited in his heart: If I were captured alive like this, it would be really embarrassing. When I was thrown to the ground, I would probably fall apart.
"Are there any ownerless houses in Beijing?" Sima Yue asked.
"Yes, yes." Dai Yuan replied: "After the death of Huangfu Shang, a commoner Sima Yi joined the army in the shogunate, his family died or dispersed, and the house was occupied by his relatives. When Zhang Fang entered the city, he also asked Huangfu Shang's relatives.
They were all killed, but now no one lives there. Outside the city, Huangfu Shang also has a garden, which is also uninhabited."
Huangfu Shang was the protagonist of the whistleblower incident, and ordered Sima Yongai to capture and kill Li Han for Sima Yi. Bian Cui and Feng Sun died together, and Zhuge Mei and Qianxiu fled to Yecheng.
Later, Huangfu Shang went westward with the imperial edict and asked for help from his brother Huangfu Zhong, the governor of Qinzhou. When he arrived in Xinping, he met his nephew and was tricked and killed.
Sima Yongsu hated Huangfu Shang and wanted Zhang Fang to kill all his family and relatives.
The troops from Guanzhong are still besieging Tianshui. Huangfu Chongqing went to the city to supervise the battle, killing so many people that Sima Yong even wanted to give up.
After listening to Dai Yuan's words, Sima Yue thought for a moment.
Although Huangfu Zhong was the governor of Qinzhou, his heart was devoted to the imperial court, but he was alone in Guanxi, so he might not be able to support him. Thinking of this, he quickly made a decision: "I will give Shao Sima Huangfu's business house and garden, gold, silk, money and food."
The items will also be distributed in batches, the specific number is up to you."
"No." Dai Yuan was confident.
The merchants of Huangfu are almost dead, and their estates will be abandoned sooner or later. It is better to reward them and win people's hearts.
After appreciating the house, Sima Yue had a straight face again, looked at He Lun, and scolded: "Look at how brave Shao Xun is, but you are so sparse. If I go to the battlefield, will I still dare to use you?"
He Lun's forehead was sweating, and he accused him repeatedly.
Just now he brought two thousand soldiers from the army and Jizhou soldiers for a drill, but he couldn't even hold on for a moment or three, and then collapsed with a crash, and his eyes were wide open.
Sima Yue snorted coldly and said nothing more. He Lun was an old man, so it was better to save some face.
Moreover, although Shao Xun is brave, there must be necessary checks and balances. No matter how bad He Lun and Wang Bing are, they can balance Shao Xun to some extent and prevent him from running too fast. Maintaining the balance of the internal power structure is what the superiors must master.
In terms of skills, people like Shao Xun who stand out from the crowd can sometimes really make their superiors love and hate him.
After saying this, Sima Yue stood up, looked at the dark military formation in the wilderness, and remained silent for a long time.
He knew that sooner or later he would have a battle with Sima Ying.
In his plan, it was best to take the Royal Army into battle together, but he hesitated.
This soldier is really unbeatable.
Perhaps, we can only let them stay in Luoyang and deal with Zhang Fang - if they attack Yecheng in the north, Sima Yong of Chang'an will definitely send troops eastward. To support Sima Ying, most of the generals who will lead the army will still be Zhang Fang.
This was his plan to send the main force north to fight the Ye soldiers and use a partial force to block the Guanzhong soldiers.
It seems that the only option left is for the Wang Guojun to stay in the rear, but - can they really deal with Zhang Fang?
Perhaps, in the end, we have to place our hope in Shao Xun.
Alas! Sima Yue sighed, there are too few talents.
The pace of rectifying the Forbidden Army must be accelerated.
Thinking of this, he looked at the Imperial Guard soldiers in the field.
There is only one simplest reason why they are obedient now: to prevent the Hebei people from bullying them too much and forcing them to stay together for warmth.
If you could use your fingers like an arm - you would dare to charge Sima Ying in this wilderness now!
Who knows how to hunt? You know how to hunt birds! Do you really think I'm being condescending to you?
****
Sima Ying left soon, along with the emperor's brother's chariot, costumes and full set of ceremonial guards.
From then on, Sima Ying could appear on the land of Hebei with the majesty of the emperor's brother. In fact, he might even travel with the emperor's pomp, he could do it.
Shao Xun rarely leaves the city and goes home!
He now has two residences. The residence in the city is not large. There is a lot of debris and equipment, and there is not much room. Moreover, Zhang Fang sent people to burn it down and tidied it up roughly, leaving only a few rooms.
It can't be used as a habitable place without major repairs.
Therefore, he is going to the garden outside the city now.
"Not far from Jingu Garden, Huangfu Shang has built a new building on a land that has only been built for two years." Pei Shiliu rode a horse and said to Shao Xun, who had not been to the other courtyard outside the city.
"Two years ago, Huangfu Shang was still the confidant of King Ji of Qi. After King Ji of Qi was defeated, he attached himself to Sima Yi, a commoner, but he survived this year and was defeated." Mi Huang, who came with him, sighed twice.
To be fair, Huangfu Shang has done a good job.
Being able to preserve the family, residence, and property after the defeat of Qi King Sima Ji, and successfully recruit and reuse Sima Yi is the ultimate human ability. However, he did not escape the new round of political reshuffle in Luoyang and was eliminated.
The price of being eliminated was the destruction of the family. Men, women, children, and even relatives were all killed by Zhang Fang.
His brother Huangfu Zhong, the governor of Qinzhou, still persisted and was besieged by the Guanzhong army. His final fate was probably not much better.
"Who owns Jinguyuan now?" Shao Xun asked.
Shi Chong has only been dead for four years. The once glorious Jingu Garden has not yet completely declined, and some powerful people should be interested in it.
"First it was taken back to the imperial court, and then it was given to Shi Yan. This person is the grandson of Shi Chong, and he was named Leling Gong." Mi Huang said: "But Shi Yan had no interest in Jingu Garden and directly sold the valuable artifacts.
, dismissed the servants, then left Luoyang and returned to live in Leling Kingdom."
"This is a smart man." Shao Xun exclaimed.
"There are many smart people in this world, but it's one thing to see through it, and another thing to be able to do it. Shi Yan has no nostalgia for the prosperity of Luoyang, and he has no interest in the glorious Jingu Garden. He just wants to return to his feudal country.
Rong Yang, you have really thought it through." Mi Huang said: "No one is taking care of Jingu Garden now, the grass is overgrown, and foxes are infested, which is a pity. Just last month, Shi Chao went to Jingu Garden.
He really likes living there now, and runs to Jinguyuan whenever he has something to do."
"When Shi Chao lived in Jinguyuan, did he have many followers?" Shao Xun suddenly thought of something and asked in a lowered voice.
Mi Huang had obviously considered this issue. He looked around from the corner of his eye and whispered: "There are quite a lot of people. He often practices martial arts in that area."
"Forget it." Shao Xun decisively gave up the unrealistic idea.
After all, Jingu Garden is a mountain garden with a dangerous terrain. If you have trained troops there, there are probably shallow defense facilities and it will be difficult to capture it in a while.
But it doesn't mean that you can't use this to your advantage.
Sima Ying left less than 50,000 soldiers and horses in total, of which 8,000 or 9,000 were surrendered troops. They were divided into twelve city gates. How many men could be assigned to one gate on average?
To be honest, it would be better to gather these 50,000 people in one place. It would be equally intimidating and there would be no danger of being defeated individually.
If we find an opportunity and wait for Shi Chao to go to Jinguyuan, he launches a brazen attack, and the tens of thousands of people Sima Ying left in Luoyang will be given an account.
At that time, Shi Chao had no choice but to flee back to Yecheng in embarrassment and wait for his fate.
"Has Shao Jun fallen in love with Jinguyuan?" Mi Huang asked with a smile.
"Even if Jinguyuan falls into my hands, I will only do a few things." Shao Xun said.
"Which ones?" Mi Huang asked curiously.
"First, clean up those beautiful lotus ponds and raise fish."
"Second, clean up the pastures and gardens and raise livestock."
"Third, use the remaining corners of the land to plant fruits and vegetables."
Mi Huang laughed.
This is really the answer that people who don’t understand the customs would give.
If an "elegant person" like Director Wang came over, he would feel the warm wind, fluttering catkins, rippling blue waves, misty mist and rain, quiet bamboo sea, delicate flowers and even the elegant sound of the piano. Beautiful ladies, but not as disgraceful as Shao Langjun - Do you understand the fashion of celebrities since the Wei and Jin Dynasties?
The main character is elegant, straightforward, and unrestrained. Can you tell me about farming, raising fish, and raising cattle and sheep?
Mi Huang was really happy. The young man has not yet adapted to his status as a superior person. If he speaks out, he will be laughed at. He must be persuaded in the future, otherwise it will be difficult to integrate into the circle of scholars.
Shao Xun also laughed and mocked himself: "I am a wild boar, I can't eat fine chaff."
Does the circle of scholars, even including the relatively poor branches and lower-class families, account for one percent of the country's total population? Probably less than that.
Their lives, or the so-called Wei and Jin demeanor, are completely different from the other 99%.
When couples say goodbye in Shihao Village, they shed more tears than in the Palace of Eternal Life.
The style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the slave society coexisted at the same time, and there were more tears and blood than romance, this is the real Western Jin Dynasty.
"Two generals, the garden has arrived." Pei Shiliu pointed to a house in front of him hidden among bamboo trees and said.
Shao Xun looked around and saw more than ten people walking quickly.
"Who are these people?" he asked.
"General, these are the guests of the manor, regular followers, Dian Ji and others, a total of eleven people." Pei Shiliu replied.
"An old member of the Huangfu family?" Shao Xun was a little surprised. Wasn't he killed by Zhang Fang?
Pei Shiliu was silent for a moment and then said, "Don't worry, the princess sent you. It has nothing to do with the Pei family. There are dozens of slaves in the mansion, all of whom are new recruits. The princess said, 'You have Lieutenant Sima living in the mansion. You must have it." Recruit all the guests, slaves and maids to become the superior's family.'"
Shao Xun was silent at the same time.
How come Concubine Pei behaves like the mistress?
Woman, you should be sensible and let your husband know...
Shao Xun subconsciously looked back, only to see that Mi Huang had already ridden more than ten steps away and was staring at an old tree, shaking his head in admiration.
Looking behind him, Chen Yougen and thirty knights from the teaching team all reined in their horses and stopped seven or eight steps away.
These guys!
