Chapter 290 Meng Da raises troops
"Zifan, you said there is important information, what is it?" After the banquet, Shen Yi led Guo Mo to his study room, and asked after the screen was turned away.
Guo Mo cupped his hands and replied, "Your Majesty, this is information about Meng Da."
"Meng Da?" Upon hearing this name, Shen Yi's drunkenness dissipated immediately, she sat up straight and exclaimed.
Guo Mo nodded, "Exactly."
"Come here quickly." Shen Yi said urgently.
For Meng Da, an old rival, Shen Yi had long wanted to get rid of him, but she had never found a suitable opportunity.
The last time he reported that Meng Da wanted to rebel, there was no real evidence. In the end, Sima Yi just sent Liang Ji, who joined the army, to go around Shangyong and then went back, without doing anything to Meng Da.
Now that she might have gotten the information about Meng Da from Guo Mo, Shen Yi was really overjoyed and thought she had an unexpected gain. Hong Hong
Guo Modao said, "The Lord also knows that I worked as a reporter in the Prime Minister's Mansion of the pseudo-Sichuan Province before I was ostracized and transferred to Huanghuang County, a remote rural area. While I was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, I also came into contact with some secrets, one of which is
About Meng Da."
He paused and continued, "The prince may not know that in the past few months, Meng Da and Zhuge Liang have been secretly colluding and exchanging letters. Meng Da has the intention to rebel against Wei and surrender to Shu. The day he raised his army was on this day or two."
Within a month."
"Oh? Seriously?" Shen Yi was extremely surprised when she heard this. She suppressed the excitement in her heart and confirmed.
Guo Mo said, "Don't worry, Mr. Fu, this matter is absolutely true. The Prime Minister's Office is in charge of the Secretary's Wenxi, so I can enter and leave important places in the Prime Minister's Office."
One day when I went to deliver documents to Zhuge Liang, I happened to hear him discussing the matter with several soldiers who joined the army, so I can guarantee that there is nothing wrong with Meng Da's rebellion."
"Okay, okay, okay, Zifan, your arrival is really a big surprise for me." Seeing that what Guo Mo said was so reasonable, Shen Yi completely believed it.
Moreover, he had originally suspected that Meng Da had colluded with Zhuge Liang, but he had just suspected it before. Now, with the report of Guo Mo, a former official of the pseudo-Sichuan Prime Minister's Office, it was enough to win the emperor's trust. Meng Da could not even think about it this time.
Try to shirk again. Hong
Thinking of this, Shen Yi said excitedly, "Zifan, you have made a great contribution this time. In this way, tomorrow, or no, you will write what you just said into a document tomorrow, or now, and I will report it to the emperor on your behalf to eliminate the thief Meng Da."
After that, I will guarantee that you will be promoted to a higher position and become rich and powerful."
"Thank you so much for your support, Mr. Fu. I will take it as your responsibility to follow Mr. Fu's lead, and he will fight against all odds." Guo Mo quickly stood up and thanked him.
These words made Shen Yi very helpful. She laughed and helped him up, "Zifan doesn't have to be like this. You and I are our own people and we naturally share weal and woe."
After the two expressed their feelings to each other, Guo Mo wrote down a report document. Shen Yi read it over happily and put it away after confirming that it was correct. She felt quite proud in her heart, "Mengda, Mengda, Mengda,
This time you are in doom. Huh, after all, the territory of Dongsan County still belongs to my Shen family."
The next day, Shen Yi originally wanted to report the report document to Cao Rui, but then she thought about it. Although there was Guo Mo's testimony, it was only a witness and no physical evidence. If the emperor still didn't want to fully believe it, I was afraid that he would have to let Piao
The General of Cavalry will inspect it. In that case, why not report it to the General of Cavalry first and then proceed to the district office?
Thinking of this, he changed his mind, called his close confidants, and asked them to quickly go to Wancheng to report to Sima Yi.
In order to reward Guo Mo for abandoning the dark side and reporting on Meng Da, Shen Yi immediately appointed Guo Mo as the thief in the prefecture, Cao Tu, in charge of arresting the thieves. As a result, Guo Mo gradually became a close confidant of Shen Yi and often visited Shen Yi.
Yi Mansion, how secret merchants deal with Meng Da Hong
In Shangyong City, Meng Da's face was full of panic and he was pacing back and forth in the house.
A few days ago, Xi Zuo, who was lurking around Shen Yi, reported to him that not long ago, Guo Mo, the captain of Huanghuang County in the Shu Han Dynasty, defected to Wei Xing County and revealed to Shen Yi that he wanted to defect from Wei and return to the Han Dynasty. Shen Yi had also sent someone to take Guo Mo away.
Mo's testimony was secretly reported to Sima Yi.
Last time Shen Yi's report was blocked by him, but this time with Guo Mo's report, Sima Yi might have to believe it.
"This time something really happened. Shen Yi is a thief, and you and I are at odds with each other!" Meng Da thought in his heart.
Zhong Kuang cursed angrily.
"Why haven't Xian'er and the others arrived yet?"
Just when Meng Da was about to send someone to urge him, four of his close nephews, Deng Xian, and generals Meng Feng, Li Fu, and Kang Nan finally arrived.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Meng Daping withdrew, leaving only the five of them to discuss matters secretly in the study. Hong Hong
"Uncle, I don't know what happened, so you called us here in such a hurry?" Deng Xian asked immediately after the five people sat down.
Meng Da sighed softly and said, "Xian'er, our incident has happened."
"What? It's not Shen Yi who's biting again, right?" Deng Xian asked in surprise.
Meng Da shook his head, "It's different this time. Shen Yi has a witness, and we can't hide the matter anymore." With that, he told Guo Mo about reporting him.
After listening to this, everyone looked solemn and bowed their heads in silence. After a long time, Meng Feng, a subordinate and a relative of Mengda, said, "Master Fu, since the matter cannot be hidden, why not take action first and start the trouble immediately? Anyway, I
I can't stay in Wei any longer, so it's better to rebel early than later, so as not to suffer from the cruelty of Shen Yi's fellow."
"Brother Meng is right. Mr. Fu, start a fight." Li Fu also clasped his fists and said.
Meng Da still didn't dare to make up his mind, hesitantly said "this" Hong
"Master Fu, I also agree to raise the army. We have been colluding with Shu Han and Soochow for a long time. Even if we are not discovered now, Wei Ting will find out one day in the future. At that time, we still cannot escape the crime of rebellion.
Therefore, we might as well raise the flag of rebellion now and rebel against Wei and return to Han before Wei Ting reacts." Kang Nan also said sincerely.
Meng Da's eyes lit up after hearing this, then dimmed again, and he murmured, "Return to the Han? Or go to Soochow?" It turned out that until this moment, he had not yet made up his mind which company to join.
Kangnan replied, "I am returning to the Han Dynasty. We were originally Han ministers, but now it is reasonable and reasonable to return to the Han Dynasty. If the emperor is worried that the Han court will settle old scores, he will feel that there is no need. Didn't Zhuge Liang and Li Yan both write in the letter?
Do you guarantee that the ruler's treatment will not be low after he returns to the Han Dynasty?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Yan is your old friend, and we also know Zhuge Liang’s character, so their words are still trustworthy. As for Soochow, we don’t have anyone familiar with us.
It is inevitable that we will not be reused in the past. Besides, we still have relatives left in Shu."
What he said was reasonable and well-founded, especially the last sentence that immediately tilted the balance in everyone's mind to Shu Han's side.
When they rebelled against the Han and defected to the Wei a few years ago, many of their family members stayed in Shu and had no time to take them away. Even Meng Da himself had a wife who stayed in Yizhou.
"Uncle, General Kang is right. Returning to Han is more beneficial than defecting to Wu, and the morale of the army will be stronger." Deng Xian also agreed.
Seeing that the four confidants all had the same idea, Meng Da finally made a decision and said loudly, "Okay, I have made up my mind to launch an army to rebel against Wei in the near future and return to the Han Dynasty."
The four generals were overjoyed and responded in unison, "I am willing to follow the general through fire and water!"
"Deng Xian, Meng Feng listen to the order." Now that he had made the decision, Meng Da immediately gave the order.
"The end will be here."
"In the past few days, you have been gathering military resources and strengthening the city's defenses in preparation for an uprising."
"Nuo." Hong
Meng Da said again, "Li Fu, Kangnan."
"The end will be here."
"I order you to recall the soldiers from Xiumu, train them, prepare the army for war, and bring the families of the soldiers scattered in other counties to Shangyong one after another."
Li Fu and Kang Nan looked at each other, understood what Meng Da meant, and immediately accepted the order "Promise."
"You go down and get ready." Meng Da waved his hand.
"Yes, I will take my leave soon."
After the four generals left, Meng Da picked up his writing brush and prepared to write a letter to Zhuge Liang, informing him that he would soon raise his troops to return to the Han Dynasty and asked him to send someone to discuss the details of taking over the three counties.
A letter was written quickly, and he was about to seal it. Suddenly, his heart moved, and he picked up the pen again and wrote a letter with almost the same content to Dongwu Lu Xun.
