As the saying goes:
"Alas! The teaching of teachers has not been passed on for a long time! It is difficult to expect people to have no doubts! The ancient sages were far superior to ordinary people, but they still followed their teachers and asked them questions; the people today are far inferior to the sages, but they are ashamed to learn from their teachers. Therefore, the sages become more sage, and the fools become more foolish..."
"Lou Shi my son!"
Heshelie Taiyu didn't care about the "teacher's way of not passing on" at all, and came to the door and called out directly. "I need your help to make a decision on something!"
It turned out that the family member that Hesheli Taiyu was talking about was not the wife that Qin Huizhi had thought of, but his seventeen-year-old eldest son, Hesheli Liangbi, whose original name was Loushi.
When Liangbi heard his father's words, he walked out with the book upside down and bowed respectfully. His demeanor was revealed, just like a handsome young man from the Han family, even better than the king Hela.
Tai Yu did not hesitate, and stepped forward and whispered to him what Qin Hui had said in the hall, and then asked, "How is it, my son, do you think you can trust this man?"
"My son thinks it's okay."
Liang Bi thought for a moment and gave an answer without hesitation. "The situation is now clear... Han has no place to stand, so the Yan people stay in Yan and the nation returns to the country... The few Yanjing families who want to keep the nation are just struggling to survive. They are not popular and are no match for the generals... As for our family, after the Zhao Song official separated my father from the generals today, he also became suspicious. I am afraid that the eldest prince and the generals will kill us and deal with us suspects together. So why not join hands with other suspects to be on guard? As for Qin Xianggong, he is good at dancing with long sleeves. If we can accept him, even Talan and Yinshu can be brought in by him."
Tai Yu nodded repeatedly, twirling his beard: "What about the replacement of the country's foundation?"
"What Qin Xianggong said is quite honest." Liang Bi sighed while holding the book. "Although we can't be the kind of people who usurp the throne, if the treasure really falls at our feet, why not pick it up? After all, after these twenty years, the older generation has seen wealth and honor, and the younger generation has seen culture and elegance. How can they go back to being barbarians? If the Zhao Song government really pursues us, it must be my father's good fortune."
"That's exactly what I meant! My son said it right away!"
Having said that, Hesheli Taiyu no longer hesitated and immediately turned around and went to the hall.
Liang Bi, on the other hand, stood in the side courtyard for a while before trying to read again. But for some reason, he could not calm down no matter how many times he turned over and over. He just repeated the sentence "It is difficult to expect people to have no doubts" several times in the whistling spring breeze.
Qin Hui, who was sure that the other party had accepted all the temptations, was not excited or ecstatic. Instead, he felt very nervous. He left Hesheli's mansion and asked his servants to send a white paper with a check mark on it back to the mansion. Then he went directly to the eldest prince's mansion to "show his loyalty" and to make inquiries.
He even made preparations to encourage the eldest prince to take the initiative to send troops when necessary.
Of course, he soon realized that in the current situation, everyone was in danger and there was no need for anyone to incite them.
Moreover, after the new conditions of the Zhao Song government arrived, no one was angry about the self-collapse of the new army, because at this time, everyone had already seen that there was only one way, and that was to abandon Yanjing and escape first!
Regarding this, the tribes outside the Great Wall wanted to do it as quickly as possible, while the majority of the big families in Yanjing wanted to preserve the essence of Yanjing as much as possible and make a deal with Emperor Zhao and Marshal Han so that both sides could part ways amicably.
But didn’t Emperor Zhao specifically specify that he wanted to kill the leaders of the three major families in Yanjing: the Han, Zuo, and Liu families?
Therefore, these three people were forced into a corner, and twists and turns were inevitable.
In the evening, before it got dark, amid the whistling wind, the Crown Prince's mansion, which was full of officials and generals, suddenly received several pieces of news that arrived at the same time - Han Fang had gone to the palace, Zuo Yuan (the second son of Zuo Qigong and the deputy governor of Yanjing) was coming here in person, and at the same time, Liu Xu (the second son of Liu Yanzong), the Minister of Rites, who had been staying at home on the pretext of illness because he had previously been attached to Nianhan, suddenly appeared and led a large number of new troops attached to the Liu family to the north of the city... There was an armory there, and it was not far from the north gate with several urn cities.
"What do you think we should do, Mr. Qin?"
Wanyan Oben let out a long sigh, looked around, and naturally noticed the one with the "highest status" among the people here.
"What can we do? If an enemy comes, we will fight him with our generals. If a flood comes, we will block it with earth." Qin Huizhi stood up and raised his voice. "Please ask the eldest prince Xu Chen to enter the palace to see what Han Fang wants to say to the king, and then stay in the palace to greet Zuo Liushou politely and listen to what he wants to say. Finally, send a few more generals to the armory. If you can avoid killing people, don't kill them. If you have to, kill them. In short, take back the armory... Without the armory, even the Koreans will be difficult to deal with when we return to Liaodong!"
Wanyan Oben nodded repeatedly and was about to speak, but suddenly turned his head to look at a short armored man behind him: "Digunai...what do you say?"
"Father!" The man called Digunai was actually just a teenager, and he should be Wanyan Oben's son. He also stepped out and bowed, his voice loud. "I think what Minister Qin said makes sense, but it is a different position, and it is not what father should adopt!"
Qin Hui was shocked, and Wanyan Wuben frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"My son's point is that the situation is so bad, and I don't know how many people want to take my father's head to negotiate peace with the southern government. At this time, any hesitation or magnanimity will lead to disaster. So there is no need to show mercy to the armory. The Han, Zuo, and Liu families are obviously in cahoots with each other and want to hinder our overall situation with their own interests, so why not eliminate them all at once?" Wanyan Digunay spoke with certainty, and Qin Hui also breathed a sigh of relief. "My son is willing to go with the generals, take back the armory with thunderous means, and deal with the three families at the same time. Finally, go to the palace to talk to the king and ask him to deal with Han Fang, so that the situation can be properly resolved!"
