Looking at the edict, Jiang Wei frowned, but said nothing. Although his power in Shu Kingdom was already great enough, it was still greater than the imperial power. He could ignore anyone and even have the intention of killing Huang Hao, but he could not be disrespectful to the later ruler Liu Chan.

This time Yan Yu's trouble in Hanzhong was big enough, which made Jiang Wei really annoyed. Jiang Wei was never afraid of these anti-Jiang factions making small moves or impeachment memorials in the court. Even if they launched the most violent personal attack on themselves and slandered their reputation, Jiang Wei could laugh.

But what Yan Yu did this time was not just targeting Jiang Wei, because what he destroyed was the defensive plan of the entire Hanzhong, which had a great impact on the survival of Shu Kingdom, which was naturally something that Jiang Wei could not tolerate.

Jiang Wei may even think of counterattack. Even if Jiang Wei himself is not in Hanzhong, Jiang Bin, Wang She and Fu Qian, who are loyal to Jiang Wei, have more than 40,000 troops in the hands of Jiang Bin, Wang She and Fu Qian. In terms of the number of troops, Jiang Bin and others have four times that of Yan Yu. And as long as Jiang Bin and Fu Qian and others take action, the troops controlled by Yan Yu will definitely turn against each other. At that time, Yan Yu is alone, so how can he have the power to resist?

Jiang Wei trusts his Hanzhong's power very much and can definitely respond to it. If he really wants to do it, it is not enough for him to deal with it.

But Sima Lun is right. Even if Jiang Wei can easily deal with Yan Yu, the impact it causes is immeasurable and may even cause large-scale unrest. Who will benefit Shu's internal chaos? Of course, it is the Wei State that is ready to move. Perhaps at this moment, Wei State is looking forward to civil strife in Shu, so they can benefit from the fisherman.

Therefore, at this critical moment, the overall situation should be put first, and maintaining stability is the most important thing, and the Wei army should not be given an opportunity to take advantage of.

Liu Chan's edict also expressed the same meaning. This edict was logically conveyed to Yan Yu, but Liu Chan specially sent someone to copy it to Jiang Wei, and the intention was very obvious, to appease Jiang Wei and tell him not to cause trouble.

Jiang Wei could guess such an intention with his eyes closed. It was obviously not written by Liu Chan. Even if Liu Chan had such an idea, he might not be able to think so thoroughly. The only ministers in the court who were kind to him could be valued in front of Liu Chan.

This order is exactly the same as Sima Lun's suggestion. Although it seems to be somewhat biased towards Yan Yu, it is still very consistent with maintaining stability in the overall situation from the perspective of the overall situation. After all, Jiang Wei's defense focus is now on Yong'an, and Hanzhong also needs a person of the four generals to take charge. In this way, even if the Wei army attacks, at least one major defense zone will be guarded in Hanzhong.

Jiang Wei thought for a long time and Liu Chan's edict was sent to Yong'an. He had to give the emperor's face, so Jiang Wei secretly covered his anger and wrote a letter to Jiang Bin Wang She and Fu Qian, asking them to abide by their positions and ignore Yan Yu's provocative behavior for the time being.

But if Yan Yu continued to maintain a greedy attitude and even wanted to seize control of Yangping Pass in Lecheng, Seoul, Jiang Wei would definitely not agree.

Moreover, Liu Chan has clearly mentioned in the edict that although the court recognized Yan Yu's actions this time, it does not mean that he can continue to seize power in the future. Without the authorization of the court, Yan Yu will not be allowed to continue to expand his sphere of influence in Hanzhong.

With this edict, Jiang Wei's sect also took a Shangfang sword. If Yan Yu was greedy and wanted to continue to seize power in Hanzhong, Jiang Bin and others could have refused for granted it. Without the imperial edict from the court, wherever he was cool!

There will be gains when there are losses. Using the peripheral guerrillas to exchange for the stable situation in Hanzhong is actually not a big loss. After all, the main body of Hanzhong’s defense is in three fortresses including Hanle Second City and Yangping Pass. The peripheral guerrillas can play some auxiliary roles, but they will never be a decisive role.

This is also an important reason why Jiang Wei endured it and finally swallowed this breath. If Yan Yu's seizure of power really involved the core of Hanzhong's defense, which would lead to the collapse of Hanzhong's defense system, then Jiang Wei would never tolerate it.

It is somewhat an acceptable result to exchange local losses for overall benefits. At this point, Simalun's judgment is very clear. Of course, it is not that Jiang Wei cannot see this, but that the authorities are confused and the bystanders are clear. Simalun can analyze and view this matter more rationally from the perspective of the bystanders.

Jiang Wei was concerned and confused, and his own interests were damaged. Jiang Wei naturally found it difficult to calm down when he first heard about it.

Fortunately, Jiang Wei was able to follow Sima Lun's advice in time, and did not launch a counterattack, and did not let the situation in Hanzhong go in an out-of-control direction. So even though Yan Yu in Hanzhong made great moves, the entire Shu did not cause turmoil.

If there is civil strife in Shu Kingdom, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the ultimate benefit will only be the Wei Kingdom.

Jiang Wei even doubted whether Yan Yu's seizure of power was encouraged by the Wei people. After all, Shu Kingdom became more and more chaotic, and only Wei Kingdom was happy. Now the Wei army is approaching and is always ready to launch an attack. Before launching the attack, the secret war probably had already begun.

If Jiang Wei was in Hanzhong, he would probably carry out a great Qing Dynasty and launch a powerful attack on the Wei spies who sneaked into Hanzhong. The more war comes, the more important the espionage operations will become. Infiltration and anti-infiltration, spies and counter-espionage will always be factors that cannot be disappeared on the battlefield.

It’s a pity that Jiang Wei is far away in Yong'an and is beyond his reach to Hanzhong. He can only rely on Jiang Bin, Wang She, Fu Qian, Jiang Shu and others, hoping that they can withstand Yan Yu's pressure, seriously defend the three major fortresses in Lecheng Yangping Pass in Seoul, and resist the attack of the Wei army.

As for Yan Yu, Jiang Wei did not have much hope for him. He did not plan to do anything. Since Yan Yu was Huang Hao's confidant, he was a mortal enemy with Jiang Wei. If you expect him to come to guard Hanzhong, it would be better to expect the old sow to climb a tree.

Jiang Wei's Hanzhong defense system was originally meant to exclude Yan Yu. As long as Yan Yu no longer had any trouble in Hanzhong, it was not difficult for Jiang Wei to withstand the attack of the Wei army with Hanzhong's defensive ability.
