Zhang Huai served as the governor of Xiangzhou and would not be able to participate in the Western Expedition for six days. This was Xu You who deliberately gave Xie Xiwen and others a peace of mind. The Zhang family had already made a clear plan for Gu Changyong's marriage, and he had to go through the process next, but it could basically be made clear to the outside world that the marriage between Xu You and Zhang was formed. If Zhang Huai made great contributions and continued to promote a high position, Xu You's power would be intensified. At that time, let alone Xie Xiwen was restless, would An Xiulin also toss and turns in Taicheng?

Instead of arousing suspicion, it is better to cut off your own arms and take the opportunity of encirclement and suppression for six days to remove Zhang Huai from the ranks of the Western Expedition, so that he can feel at ease. It is just a little unfair to Zhang Huai, but in the face of the overall situation, his personal sacrifice is insignificant and he will make up for it in the future.

Zhang Jinglong fully supported Xu You's suggestion and personally ordered Zhang Huai to submit a letter to send him to Xiangzhou. The inner government received Xu You's ventilation in advance and quickly settled the matter. Yu Ying was transferred back to Jinling to serve as Guangluqing, and Qinggui was also famous. Zhang Huai went out of Xiangzhou as General Wei, and handed over from now on.

When all matters in Jiangdong were going in an orderly manner, the Northern Wei court fell into a huge storm. The cause was that two prophecies that were suddenly sung pointed at the General Yuan Guang without any concealment.

Rumors spread everywhere, saying that when Yuan Guang was born, the blue dragon possessed him, and the five-colored light shone on the bullfighting. Therefore, the late emperor named him Guang, and said that the six towns in the northern border were plotting to connect with each other, hoping to support Yuan Guang as the main point. There was also saying that the late emperor had a will. If Yuan Yu betrayed the Xianbei ancestral system, the eight great officials could join forces to depose him and replace him with Yuan Guang.

The Hou Guan Cao has been in a state of great trouble recently, and almost all the Hou Guan were dispatched. Egrets could be seen everywhere in Pingcheng, and hundreds of people were caught day and night, causing panic, but they could not find the source.

Tai Chi Hall, Dong Hall.

The emperor bird, the marquis and chief officials, knelt down and apologized. Yuan Yu said coldly: "Within seven days, can you calm down the object discussion? Can you do it?"

The emperor bird's hoarse voice like metal is always so rushing and slow, saying: "Rumors are plagues that come from the hearts of the people of Pingcheng. Unless you kill all the people in Pingcheng, you will not be able to do it!"

"you!"

Yuan Yu was furious and the Ruyi in his hand hit the emperor's head directly, saying, "You want to rebel too, right?"

"I am punishing your majesty for your crimes. I have heard that there are countless people in the court offended by the powerful and powerful people. Even if they want to rebel, the emperor's bird leaned on the ground, bleeding from his forehead, and said expressionlessly: "Who would be willing to accomplice with me?"

This is the truth. The emperor's origin has always been a mystery, without roots and no foundation. His only backer in the Northern Wei Dynasty was Yuan Yu. Over the years, he has caused all the Xianbei surnames and Han high families. If Yuan Yu died first, he would be the second one.

Yuan Yu looked at the lifeless face of the emperor bird, remembered the past, and suddenly his anger disappeared. He turned around and returned to the dragon throne, and said in a deep voice: "Gao Teng!"

The internal commander Gao Teng was waiting outside the hall. After hearing the emperor's reprimand, he dared to contradict the emperor. He was secretly happy. He hated the marquis and chief official Cao who was above his eyes and always looked down upon him. When he heard the emperor summoned him, he thought he wanted to deal with the emperor's bird. He walked into the hall happily, but unexpectedly he was hit by a blow.

"Gao Teng, you are responsible for dispatching the Sanlang guards. The whole city will search for those who dare to spread prophecies and rumors. One person will be punished, and the whole clan will be punished together! I will give you seven days. If you cannot suppress this evil spirit, don't do your internal orders!"

Gao Teng cursed in his heart, but he didn't have the courage to do so as to win the emperor, so he had to pinch his nose and accept it, and said, "I received the order!" He was a eunuch. Although he was a high and powerful official, he could only be called a slave in front of the emperor, and could not be called a minister.

"Call Cui Boyu!"

When Cui Boyu entered the palace, he met Gao Teng and respectfully saluted the instructor. Gao Teng snorted coldly, and the whip in his hand whipped the horse's buttocks, and ran away without paying attention. Cui Boyu had no idea when he had offended Gao Teng, but his face was silent and he could not see any dissatisfaction. He stood on the left side of the road, watching Gao Teng disappear from the background, and then quickly walked towards the Tai Chi Palace.

General's Mansion.

Yuan Guang was wearing green clothes and fishing in the pond. He sat next to him. In the pavilion of the rockery in the distance, the young girl was holding a book and reading it carefully. Looking at the cover, it was written with "The Justice of the Five Classics".

Her skin is dazzling and dazzling, and her slim figure has revealed the majesty that a girl should have. Her legs look straight and slender under her skirt. Her angular face retains the characteristics of the Xianbei people, but it has been soaked in the misty rain of Jiangnan for many years, exuding a bit of beautiful tenderness.

Hexi Chounu, a girl born in the Northern Dynasties and raised in the Southern Dynasties, with the blood of the Hu people flowing with him, but following Xu You to listen to poetry and essays and learn the classics, perhaps, is the best example of the integration of Hu and Han in the future.

The breeze blew, the winter was warm, there was no neighing of war horses, and no swords and guns. Yuan Guang's heart had never been as calm as it is now. He turned his head, looked at Yu Tu and smiled, then looked up at the pavilion, and just happened to be jumping up excitedly, lying on the stone railing, waved at them, and shouting loudly: "Aye, this is Xiaolang's book, I am so happy..."

Yuanguang smiled, his eyes full of pampering, and asked softly: "What kind of person is Xu You...?"

"He..."

Yuan Mulan once asked the same thing. At that time, Yu Tu replied that Xu You was really a very good person. Now Yuan Guang asked again. Yu Tu raised his head slightly, and the sunlight passed through the branches and leaves, hitting her half-sided face like an evil ghost, but it seemed to be stained with the Buddha's compassion, and there was no trace of hideousness and ugliness.

In those years in Qiantang, she had forgotten too much hatred and finally reunited with Yuanguang, suffocating the last unwillingness in her heart. Although she had never forgiven her, she no longer thought about revenge and said, "Xu You will be the best friend. He is gentle, kind, affectionate and righteous, can give people warmth and support, but he is also the most terrible enemy. He is smart, agile, and seems to be able to do anything. The Lord Chu regards him as a general. In time, he will become a trouble in the heart of the Great Wei..."

"Have it!"

Yuan Guang's eyes were as deep as the sea, as if containing endless wisdom and life experience. He pulled up the fishing rod and saw a green fish hooked up. He smiled slightly and said, "I'll cook tonight and make fish soup for you and the Chou Nu..." Then he took the hook and put the green fish into the fish basket, and suddenly said, "Is Xu You so powerful? Why don't I go to Jinling to kill him now, so as to get rid of this big trouble for the court?"

Yu Tu gave him a blank look and said, "If you are not afraid of your daughter fighting with you, then go and kill me!"

Yuan Guang rubbed his hands, pressed his hot palm against Yu Tu's back, and said, "Xu You is the great benefactor of our whole family. Don't worry, if there is really a problem, I will save him once... However, he is now the General of Chu State, below one person and above ten thousand people. I heard that there are many talented people and strangers around him, and he will not encounter any major dangers at any time..."

At this moment, Yuan Mulan came to ask for a meeting. Seeing the two of them from afar, she was sincerely happy for Yuan Guang. Her uncle and master had been lonely for so many years, and lovers finally got married. God finally did not blind her eyes completely.

"Mu Lan is here, let go!"

Yu Tu felt a little embarrassed, Yuan Guang didn't care, held her jade hand, and smiled at Yuan Mulan, "Why are you free to see us today?"

"Master is so elegant!" Yuan Mulan stood beside the fish basket, looked inside, and smiled and said, "The green fish is in hand, and she is happy, but she has not heard that the city has had a quarrel because of two prophecies and rumors?"

"The real dragon comes out of the northern border, and the bright moon shines on the Pingcheng?" Yuan Guang said lightly: "The emperor will not care about such a straightforward plan of discord."

"But what my father cares about is that someone in the six towns in the northern border conspires to rebel in the name of supporting you..."

"Oh?" Yuan Guang asked back, "Hou Guan Cao has the actual evidence?"

"Well! Yuchi Depo has left the capital at night and rushed to Wuchuan Town to take care of the aftermath. If nothing unexpected happens, the general of the town capital, He Barong, will be punished and imprisoned. The chaos will definitely be chaos for a while, but the problem will not be too big. Master, do you have the right person to choose the next general of the town capital in Wuchuan Town?"

Even after hearing such news, Yuan Guang still looked as usual. For him, there were few things in the world that could disrupt his mind. He let go of Yu Tu's hand, easily throw out the fish hook, quietly looked at the ripples broken on the water surface, and said: "It is false to have trouble in the six towns, and to support me as the main force. It is true to oppose the comprehensive sinicization of the Xianbei and the relocation of the capital Yecheng, and the use of the Han people's high sects. The emperor wanted to make achievements for generations, so Cui Boyu agreed to his preferences, but it was too hurrying..."

Yuan Mulan was obviously an opponent, saying: "The late emperor once said that accepting Han culture is like catching a deer in a garden. If you are anxious, it will run away! For the sake of the Great Wei and the country, it should indeed innovate and eliminate the bad things, but the medicine is too strong and it will kill people. Cui Boyu deserves to die!"

After the Xianbei people entered China, they maintained a cautious attitude of neither resisting nor aggressiveness towards sinicization. Until Queen Mother Feng took office, she personally admired the history of civilization of the Han people. In order to adapt to the political needs of the time, she began to vigorously promote sinicization and reform the dynasty. Then, Yuan Yu, influenced by Queen Mother Feng since childhood, was proficient in the Five Confucian classics and was involved in the theories of various scholars. In addition, she was ambitious and wanted to create a foundation for all generations. The fool also knew that relying on the Xianbei people's system and culture was not successful. They must be sinicized and accepted the Han people. But the problem is that Yuan Yu did not succeed without my spirit of sacrifice. Ten thousand years was too long, and he had to seize the day. He wanted to live to see a powerful Wei Empire. He wanted to live to see the island barbarians of the Southern Dynasty kneeling under the iron hooves of the Great Wei. He wanted to live to rule the Wanfang and become a veritable emperor!

Therefore, with the power of defeating Rouran, suppressing all opposition with its might and iron blood, and compressing the things that require generations to be completed in just a few years, it would be strange if there is no problem!

Yuan Guang shook his head, unwilling to talk deeply about this matter, even in front of Yuan Mulan, and said: "Zhao Gui, deputy general of Wuchuan Town, can be the capital of Zhendu. However, Mulan, the emperor will never follow my proposal, and will not even choose talents from the generals of Wuchuan Town..."

Yuan Mulan was silent for a while and said, "Yes, Gao Teng is lobbying his father and wants his younger brother, General Gao Yuan, to replace He Barong."

"Gao Yuan?" Yuan Guang seemed to be recalling who Gao Yuan was. He finally gave up and smiled and said, "I'm so confused. These young heroes don't recognize them. Mu Lan, the location of Wuchuan Town is very important. The generals of the town capital are not hasty. If Gao Yuan is suitable, there is no need to be afraid of him as the younger brother of the Insider, but if he is not suitable..."

"I will give you my father a warning!"

Yuan Guang shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate for you to stand out. Xi Jin and Changsun Di are not dead yet. Let them advise you, and you should put more energy in the south recently..."

"South?" Yuan Mulan's slender eyebrows frowned slightly and said, "Chu Ting was fighting with Yao Jin, who was entrenched in Liangzhou, while Tianshi Dao Tiger was entrenched in Yizhou, like a thorn in his throat. It was even more unbearable than us. Why fear?"
