Chapter 870: Xu Shus rebellion
After Kuai Yue left Liu Qi's handsome tent, he looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh.
After standing there for a long time, he turned his head and looked at Liu Qi's handsome tent for a while, then finally shook his head and left.
After Kuai Yue left, Xu Shu brought the military report from the Guards Department to report military affairs to Liu Qi. As soon as he entered the commander's tent, he saw the mess all over the floor - many slips and slips were thrown all over the floor.
Liu Qi, on the other hand, was squatting on the ground, picking up the rolls one by one.
Xu Shu was shocked when he saw this. He rushed forward and squatted down to help Liu Qi pick up the slips on the ground.
Liu Qi turned to look at him and said slowly: "Instead of doing serious business, why don't you come here to pack your things with me?"
Xu Shu picked up a pile of slips and stood up and put them on the table: "Who said that helping the lord pack things is not considered a serious matter?"
Liu Qi smiled when he heard this: "When did you become so eloquent and charming? Did you learn from Zhang Yun?"
Xu Shu smiled lightly and did not refute.
Because he knew that Liu Qi was joking, and even if he was really a clever person, what could he do?
Zhang Yun and Cai Xun were famous for their clever words in Liu Qi's camp, but Liu Qi didn't seem to dislike them that much.
On the contrary, Kuai Yue usually acted like a loyal minister and meticulous in front of others, but in the end, wasn't he taken care of by Liu Qi?
Many things cannot be taken at face value.
"The last general saw General Kuai Zhonglang just now." Xu Shu suddenly said: "He stood outside the prince's handsome tent for a long time before leaving."
"I feel unhappy. I feel extremely wronged. I feel that I can't forgive him." Liu Qi put the slip on the table with a half-smile and said, "I don't blame him for thinking this way. He is really too angry." Gao, he is also the veteran of the Liu family and his son who have established themselves in Jingzhou...I have learned to rely on my elders and sell them."
"However, General Kuai Zhonglang is an extraordinary person and a very arrogant person. What did the Lord say to him to make him willingly accept this reality?"
Liu Qi picked up the slips on the ground and began to sort them next to the desk.
"What to accept? There's no way he can accept it. It's just that I forced him to do nothing. I'm afraid he won't be able to get over it for a while."
When Xu Shu heard this, he fell silent.
"After all, Kuai Yue is the earliest Zhonglang general in our Jingzhou army. He is also a high-ranking man in Nanjun. He is also highly intelligent. At that time, he had feelings for Junhou and his son. Did Junhou really want to deal with him? "
"I'm not dealing with him, I just want what I need." Liu Qi said lightly: "Of course, if he can think it through, everything will be easy to talk about, and master and slave will still be master and slave in the future, but if he can't figure it out... …”
When talking about this, Liu Qi did not continue talking.
He just took out two volumes of slips from the desk that were ready to be discarded, tore them open with force, then walked to the burning brazier in the tent, threw the slips in and burned them.
Looking at the slowly rising smoke from the brazier, Liu Qi whispered: "This world cannot be established until it is destroyed. The accumulated shortcomings of the old system are too thick and must be improved again."
Speaking of this, Liu Qi turned to look at Xu Shu and said: "The most basic component of a country is its people, powerful and poor. They have existed since ancient times. It is understandable that princes and generals should be superior to ordinary people. But when it comes to the majority of people,
When most people are not living well, or even have no chance of survival, how long can the powerful and prominent families at the top sustain themselves? Why are we big men in such chaos now? Yuanzhi, you should know better than me."
Xu Shu smiled and said: "These big things are all things that a hero like Junhou needs to consider. What Xu thinks about is just how to assist Junhou in doing what he wants to do."
Liu Qi looked at him with a smile: "Then what are you going to do?"
"General, please ask me to go talk to Kuai Yidu tonight."
"Haha, you really can worry about me. Okay, you go ahead...bring the wine with you."
…
That night, Kuai Yue drank alone in the tent.
He drank a lot and kept gulping himself down.
But it's no wonder that he felt really uncomfortable.
"How will Zhonglang drink by himself?"
After hearing this, Kuai Yue turned his head and looked at the tent entrance in surprise.
Xu Shu was holding a jar of fine wine and was standing at the entrance of the tent, looking at Kuai Yue inside.
"Is this Yuan Zhi? Come on, come on! Come in and sit down." Kuai Yue burped from wine and waved to Xu Shu.
Xu Shu entered the commander's tent and sat down opposite Kuai Yue. He looked at Kuai Yue up and down and said, "Is the commander-in-chief drunk?"
"Why are you so drunk? Didn't you bring some wine here? Come on, come on, have some drinks with me!" Kuai Yue invited him cheerfully.
Xu Shu was not polite and directly opened the wine he brought, filled it for Kuai Yue, and poured himself a glass of wine at the same time.
The two of them didn't say much, picked up the wine and drank the wine together.
Kuai Yue smacked his lips and said, "It's not easy, it's not easy."
Xu Shu wiped his mouth and asked, "What will Zhonglang say about it not being easy?"
Kuai Yue looked at Xu Shu and said appreciatively: "Now that I have fallen into this situation, it is really rare that you can come here to drink with me... Alas, on normal days, those people who would flatter me in every possible way are now
I'm afraid I won't be able to hide."
Xu Shu poured wine for Kuai Yue: "In Xu Shu's heart, General Zhonglang will always be that General Zhonglang. Although we don't have a close relationship with each other, Xu Shu still admires General Zhonglang for what he has done for half his life."
Kuai Yue was delighted when he heard this: "Are you flattering me?"
Xu Shu shook his head: "Given his current status, General Zhonglang should probably praise me."
Kuai Yue was stunned when he heard this, then laughed loudly and said: "That's true."
The two were chatting and drinking. After drinking for a while, Xu Shu suddenly asked: "General Zhonglang, do you think you are unjust?"
Kuai Yue picked up the wine cup and took a long sip: "No injustice!"
Xu Shu was happy when he heard this: "Zhonglang will not tell the truth to me?"
Kuai Yue shook his head gently and said: "Why don't you tell the truth? I've reached this point now, so why don't I dare to say it? Hehe, although Kuai is not as broad-minded as a prince, he is still very good.
Compared with ordinary people, I can naturally figure out what the prince is thinking and what is in his heart... If I were in the position of the prince, I would do the same... This world is burdened by the powerful families.
, the poison is too deep, if the poison is not broken, how can there be peace and tranquility?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xu Shu did not expect that Kuai Yue could actually say such words: "Since Zhonglang knows the intention of the king, then why do you still..."
"I understand, I understand, but I am one of those cancerous people after all. Xu Yuanzhi, you have to know that I grew up in the Kuai family since I was a child. Now I have inherited my brother's inheritance and become the father of the Kuai family. I belong to the Kuai family.
There are more than four hundred and seventy people. If we include the vassals and vassals, there will be more than thousands? I understand what the prince is thinking, but I must make plans for the Kuai family."
When Xu Shu heard this, he sighed secretly and said nothing.
Kuai Yue put down the wine prince and said with a wry smile: "But after all, I am no match for the prince. His talent and strategy are ten times better than mine! I lost, and my defeat was not unjust."
After that, he drank another glass of wine.
Xu Shu poured wine for Kuai Yue again and said: "Actually, General Zhonglang is not willing to accept it, just because from today on, the status and honor of the Kuai family in Jingzhou may not be as good as before, but you should think about it, why is this so?
Isn't it the general trend? The monarch has the ambition to unify all the countries, and the policy of dividing the children into acres has shown his determination to overthrow the old system. The Kuai family has the British master at the right time. This is a good opportunity for the family to take off. General Zhonglang
Why not take advantage of it?"
Kuai Yue looked at Xu Shu with a wry smile: "You can only eat enough for one person, but the whole family is not hungry. There are hundreds of people in my Kuai family!"
Xu Shu smiled and said: "Yes, from now on, as time goes by, the families in Jingzhou and Yizhou will no longer have the capital to fight against the imperial court. But since ancient times, the king is heaven, and we, the ministers, are controlled by the king, isn't it?
Is it common sense?”
Kuai Yue was speechless after hearing this.
"Without private soldiers, without hidden population, without ordnance, we can no longer rule the roost. But after all, you are the prince's best friend, and you were also the first person to support the prince in taking over Jingzhou. If the prince can really unify all nations in the future,
When people from all over the world come to court, the Kuai family is a minister of the Dragon, with successive generations of high-ranking officials, leaving a legacy of history. Is it really not as practical as the one who rules the roost?"
Kuai Yue belched wine, pointed at Xu Shu's nose, and said with a smile: "What you said...is treasonous!"
Xu Shu cupped his hands and said, "Zhonglang, I will forgive you. I just said what you dare not say."
Kuai Yue stared at Xu Shu closely, and Xu Shu looked directly at him without hiding his eyes.
"General Zhonglang, there are so many famous families in the world...but which families, in thousands of years, have the opportunity to assist an emperor?"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Kuai Yue's head sinking and hitting the table with a 'bang' sound, followed by a sound of 'whirring' as he fell into deep sleep.
Xu Shu was stunned when he saw this. He reached out and pushed Kuai Yue: "General Zhonglang? General Zhonglang?"
But Kuai Yue just fell asleep and couldn't wake up at all.
