Chapter 88 Widow, King of Xiyang, make money!
Ruyin, the marshal of the Southeast Road, Yu Wenwen, is carrying out the daily routine of the head coach and the military supervisor. The head coach and the military supervisor should not deal with it, otherwise the superiors will be uneasy, so Yu Wenwen doesn't mind quarreling with the other party.
The last military supervisor Cui Dana is now in Chang'an, so the emperor decides how to deal with it, either by clicking or exiling. Now, the new military supervisor has not been able to challenge Yuwen Wen even if he arrives in Ruyin.
Not long after the resumption of the hereditary title of Xingshi Gongwei Xuan was appointed as the chief marshal of the Southeast Road, assisting the marshal of the marshal Yuwen Wen to guide Lianghuai.
Wei Xuan, like Han Qinhu, the marching chief manager, came to Huaixi from Chang'an, but Wei Xuan set out later than Han Qinhu, so he met Yuwen Wen only after arriving in Ruyin.
While Wei Xuan was still halfway, he heard about Yuwen Wen’s actions in the Huaixi area and was extremely disgusted with his atrocities.
Yuwen Wen's so-called "rape" was a "blood-slaughtering" of disobedient forts in various parts of Huaixi. Wei Xuan felt that this move was too bloody, which would damage the reputation of the court and would also lose the people's hearts, making those neutral fort masters turn to the Yuchi side, increasing the difficulty of the court's rebellion.
So Wei Xuan directly advised Yuwen Wen today and asked Yuwen Wen to "reform himself."
Yuwen Wen certainly had to retort such ridiculous request: "Shi Shi Wei, if you make mistakes, you must have a mistake before you can change them."
"King, how can you conquer the hearts of the people in Huaixi with such quibbling? Even if no one dares to speak under the power of the king's military, the hearts of the people cannot be conquered with a knife."
"How to conquer me? I also ask the Changshishuo to do so."
"Be honest and open and honest, don't be too threatening, give the fort owners in various places a chance to abandon the dark and turn to the light, and give them a chance to make up for the loss."
"I only say good things once. If they don't listen, they will die and join the Yuchi family? Yes, they will still die later!"
Yuwen Wen said this, without waiting for Wei Xuan to refute, and continued to make efforts: "The Changshi was also an official of his parents in the past, and the governors of the barbarians have a lot of experience. I am in Huangzhou and the governors of the Dabie Mountains have a lot of experience. There is no need to say much about similar experiences."
"The king, the emperor no longer cares about the matter of Xuanhu in the past. This time, the emperor came to Huaixi on the order of the emperor. The emperor has said many times that Henan and the powerful people in Huaizhou had to watch the walls. Don't kill them all. Why should the king be resentful to these fence-bearing plants?"
Wei Xuan advised him earnestly. When he set off from Chang'an, King Qi Yuwen Liang of Yuwen, he asked him to take good care of his "rebellious nephew" (rebellious son) King Yuwen Wen of Xiyang. Of course, Wei Xuan knew that Yuwen Liang did not really regard Yuwen Wen as his rebellious nephew (rebellious son), but wanted him to correct the strange behavior that Yuwen Wen might have in time.
What is "weird behavior"? King Qi is just saying a general idea, such as publishing a strange manifesto, inappropriate behavior in public, and disobeying orders.
Disobeying the law is very bad in nature and is like a rebellion. Unless the court cannot do it, no one will do this. However, Wei Xuan was not surprised that King Xiyang would cause such a thing.
It’s not that Yuwen Wen is domineering, but because his prince has now become a pseudo-emperor and his princess has become a ruthless person. Wei Xuan can understand Yuwen Wen’s mood at this time. It is normal for the other party to save his wife and children and do things that he disobeys.
However, no matter how understanding is understood, it is necessary to stop it. King Qi sincerely asked Wei Xuan to "help" so much, so Wei Xuan naturally had to do his duty.
"Will the king take down Ruyin now, and as before, he will also slaughter the forts in Yingzhou that did not respond to the conscript?"
“That’s right!”
"The king will do such a rebellious act, which will surely damage the reputation of the court, and the subordinates will never stand by and watch!"
Wei Xuan said this and was preparing to sacrifice magic weapons, which were envoys given by the emperor. Its power was the Shangfang sword in the Romance, and it was a powerful weapon against the commander in the hands of the military supervisor.
Although it is unlikely to be useful, Wei Xuan still needs to use it. If Yuwen Wen doesn't listen, he will complain to Chang'an. Even the complaints cannot solve the problem. He will resign and will never neglect his duties.
Yuwen Wen looked at Wei Xuan with a slight smile: "Oh, what's wrong with the Chief Secretary? Haven't the manifesto been written yet? Maybe after it was sent out, the powerful people from all over the country responded enthusiastically to my call, and it might not be possible to be willing to join the court!"
"If someone really doesn't know how to be polite, wouldn't there be a Changshi to influence them?"
Wei Xuan's awesome righteousness was interrupted by Yuwen Wen's words. He didn't know what to say for a moment, and then he replied: "Since that's the case, please let the emperor do the proclamation he wants to issue."
Yuwen Wen said in surprise: "Does the Chief Secretary think I can't write?"
"The officials dare not, please let them do it for them."
"Okay, I will tell you the oral story, and I will write it." Yuwen Wen said with a smile, and then murmured the other party.
Wei Xuan was speechless when he heard this, and suddenly felt a little tired. Yuwen Wen's difficulty in dealing with him was a preliminary understanding, but he was not discouraged, because of course he did what Li Gang could do.
Wei Xuan's grandfather was an official of the Western Wei Dynasty, so his family was both an official of the Western Wei/Zhou Kingdom. Li Gang, the chief of the Xiyang Palace, was an old acquaintance with Wei Xuan. Li Gang, who was the assistant to the King of Qi, had taken up the body of Yuwen Xian and adopted Yuwen Xian's young daughter, and Wei Xuan admired him very much.
Later, after Li Gang made some twists and turns, he was entrusted by King Qi to serve as the chief of the Xiyang Palace. Since Li Gang could suppress King Xiyang, Wei Xuan thought he could do it too.
He asked someone to bring a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Wei Xuan picked up his pen, and waited for Yuwen Wen to dictate the content of the manifesto. The manifesto was about to be sent to Yingzhou and nearby prefectures and counties, calling on powerful and local civil and military officials from all over the country to join the Chang'an court and draw a clear line with the traitor.
After thinking for a while, Yuwen Wen blurted out: "I, King of Xiyang, pay money!"
Wei Xuan didn't react for a moment and looked at Yuwen Wen blankly. After Yuwen Wen repeated it again, Wei Xuan had the urge to throw a pen: "King, the manifesto is of great importance. Please don't be so frivolous in your words and deeds, so that the imperial court's majesty will be wiped out!"
"The words and deeds are frivolous? Does the Changshi look at me like this?"
"The king, what the emperor said, only what the king said just now, has no other intention."
Yuwen Wen said in his heart that I don’t care. You think I’m frivolous in my words and deeds, but what I blurted out was another saying: “Don’t I say it clearly enough? The content of the manifesto is straightforward, and everyone can understand that I ask them to pay money and food. If it’s very literary, what if someone can’t understand or misunderstand it?”
"May I ask...Master..." Wei Xuan tried his best to calm his tone, "Master I ask, how can I solve the problem of making money?"
"Ah, this is the spoken language that emerged in Xiyang. I am used to it. Haha... Then, please ask the Chief Secretary to write a manifesto, which should be easy to understand and demonstrate the majesty of the court."
"Uh... the official obeys the order."
Yuwen Wen's erratic thinking made Wei Xuan feel a little uncomfortable, but since the other party was willing to reason, he breathed a sigh of relief. He just wanted to write something after picking up the pen, but his mind was blank.
