Chapter nine hundred and seventy-first secret discussion on the handsome account
After the 19th Empire Plenary Session, Liu Fusu avoided all eyes and ears, and did not even bring Lu Changqing, the most valued one under the account. After going back and forth, he secretly came to the Marshal's Mansion, found a secret passage that only he knew, and went straight into the secret room, without anyone seeing it along the way.
The secret room was lit with sandalwood that soothed emotions, and the candlelight was dark and the layout was very simple, with tables and chairs, a pot of wine, two jade cups, nothing. After the door was closed, this was a completely isolated space.
On the other side of the table, Yue Run stood up tremblingly and said politely: "Fusu, what's the point of asking me to meet here?"
"Oh!" Liu Fusu sighed heavily, sat at the table and picked up the wine pot and filled it in the jade cup. He drank it all, poured it again, poured it again, poured it again, poured it again, poured it again, drink again, drink again, drink again, drink again, and drank again, then he smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "Master Marshal, why are you still as still as a mountain when this disaster is coming?"
Yue Runsheng was stunned for a moment and said in confusion: "Now there is no strong enemy outside, and the country is safe and the people are happy, why is the disaster coming?"
"There is no strong enemy outside, but what about the inside?" Liu Fusu poured himself and Yue Runsheng a glass of wine, dipped his fingers in a little wine, outlined the outline of the Red Blood Empire on the table, and finally said seriously, "Now, Leng Yuan has taken over Luoyou, and the Eagle Flag Army Tiger occupies the northern border, which is one-half of the world. Linjiang, a major Jiangnan area, has his old general Mo Gu, and Chang'an in the Western Region is already a single tree, as if he is exhausted."
Yue Runsheng looked at the outline of the country shining in the candlelight and muttered: "This... General Leng Yuan is a famous family. He should not have committed any treason and humiliation of his family, right?"
"Master Marshal, are you too relieved about a person?! Which of the thieves in history are not descendants of famous families? The more you feel that it is impossible to rebel, the more unexpected the effect of raising the anti-flagship will be... Of course, I have no intention of exaggerating and slandering Leng Yuan, I just remind you." Liu Fusu held his forehead helplessly, and he sat upright, with a bright look on his face, "Master Marshal, there are no outsiders here, you and I will be honest. I ask you if I ask, please answer truthfully, okay?"
Yue Runsheng nodded and said, "But it's okay to ask."
Liu Fusu drank the wine in the glass and asked in a deep voice: "Will you let Leng Yuan protect you from the previous Marshal's death?"
Yue Runsheng seemed to have been told something, his eyes dodged, and Liu Fusu did not force him to ask, but just waited for his answer.
After a long silence, Yue Runsheng finally took out two bags from his arms and muttered: "After the death of the Grand Marshal, I followed the orders of the Marshal and found these two treasures in the secret compartment of the Grand Marshal's Mansion."
Liu Fusu's eyes kept asking tentatively: "Can I see it?"
Yue Runsheng smiled bitterly, put the treasure bag in front of Liu Fusu, and said, "I have said this, can I still say no? Just look at it."
Liu Fusu took apart two treasures. The things contained in them were exactly the same, they were all parchment paper, but the contents of the writing were different.
After reading the first tip, Liu Fusu showed a frank smile, which was a smile that was only found in her innocent youth.
When Liu Fusu opened the second treasure bag, his face changed and his eyes widened. He was stunned for a while, and he quickly handed over both treasure bags to Yue Runsheng, clenched his fists and said, "I guess it's true. After that birthday banquet, the former Grand Marshal was wary of Leng Yuan. One of these two treasure bags was to prevent accidents."
Yue Runsheng muttered: "Yes...but it's not that far."
"You still want to wait for that step?! When it really reaches that step, you still expect a treasure bag to save you?" Liu Fusu paced back and forth anxiously, patting his forehead constantly, and said solemnly, "Master Marshal, do you still remember what Leng Yuan said when he left the scene?"
Yue Runsheng thought about it for a while and said dumbly: "The way is different, we don't plan for each other."
"The way is different, I don't plan to do it..." Liu Fusu's pace increased, and some sweat appeared on his forehead. He narrowed his eyes and said, "It would be fine if he was angry, but if there was a deep meaning in this sentence..."
"Fusu?"
"Master Marshal, it's time for you to make a decision. Before the death of the former Master Marshal, I will definitely teach you the way of balance. If I am strong, I will help Leng Yuan, and if Leng Yuan is strong, I will help me. Now Leng Yuan is one-half of the world, and his words are like breaking with self-respecting troops. Can't you make up your mind?"
Yue Runsheng's face turned pale: "What do you mean...the Northern Expedition?"
Liu Fusu was also stunned, laughed angrily, shook his head and said, "Where do you want to go? It's not a rebel, what kind of attack in the north? General Leng Yuan is still our comrade-in-arms, not an enemy. There is no doubt about this. I just hope you make up your mind to weaken the Eagle Banner to consolidate the power of the central government."
Yue Runsheng said hesitantly: "Will this cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers in the North? Although I am not as talented as you, I have read some historical books. Since ancient times, it has been bloody and bloody, and there has never been a peaceful eradication of the vassals."
"Dissatisfaction is certain, bloody storms are indispensable. National politics is not a playhouse, peaceful evolution is exclusive to prosperous times, and there is no such miracle in troubled times. We must do something bad." Liu Fusu shook his head helplessly and sighed, "But this is our only way. If the power of the Eagle Banner Army is allowed to expand, the Chang'an Central Committee will completely lose control of the northern border. If Leng Yuan does anything else, it will be a disaster."
Yue Runsheng asked tentatively: "Fusu, do you have any suggestions?"
"If the Grand Marshal can trust me, I am willing to offer three plans to help you consolidate the power of the central government." Liu Fusu gave Yue Runsheng a noble military salute. After he put down his hand, there seemed to be a deep light in his pupils, and he said in a deep voice, "Also, I have a very important chess piece in the northern border. This person hides deeply, more deeply than anyone thinks! After the death of the former Grand Marshal, only I know the existence of this person, and now, I am willing to tell you the existence of this person."
Liu Fusu leaned into Yue Runsheng's ear and said a name.
After hearing this, Yue Runsheng was shocked and looked at Liu Fusu in disbelief. Liu Fusu nodded to him.
"It's this person... I can't imagine it, I can't imagine it..." Yue Runsheng's eyes were erratic. After a moment, he seemed to have made some decision. He picked up the wine glass to respect Liu Fusu and said heavily, "Then, this matter will be free from you."
"For the country and the people, Fusu is willing to go through fire and water." Liu Fusu also picked up the wine glass and returned to Yue Runsheng, his words full of unshakable power, "You and I will join forces, and the empire is unbreakable!"
After saying that, the two clinked their glasses and drank them all.
